Six hundred and seven The first battle of the Cactus Air Force, the Wyvern Killer is invincible
The lead plane with the number "10000" painted on the fuselage flew in the front, and the three fighters numbered "11101", "11201", and "11301" were located in the lower three positions on the left and right of the circumferential airspace behind the tail of the lead plane.
Li Qi saw the general situation of the group from the rearview mirror, felt a little chaotic, opened his mouth to say something, and then recalled the pilots' training day and night in the past few days, and closed his mouth again, this is already everyone's limit.
The battle magicians led by Linde are indeed familiar with air combat, and the control of the new fighter is unfamiliar to them, but they are themselves a high-intelligence group, and it is not difficult to accept. The only trouble is coordination, especially marshalling and keeping a large fleet of machines. More than two-thirds of each of their flight hours are spent on it.
In Richie's view, maintaining formation and marshalling operations at this stage is a much more important thing than individual flying skills. The flying units of the world of Fein are either weak but large in number, or they are strong in a single unit, and in short, they are not something that ordinary pilots can challenge alone.
Images sent from the Northern Legion line confirmed the true face of the enemy, a large number of rusty wyverns. Just a small fraction of the line did considerable damage to the defense, and Wilson had to redeploy the defense.
Thousands of rusty dragons, plus three iron dragons and three floating ships, such air power is completely beyond the strength of these sixty fighters. The performance of the Chidian fighter is actually enough to compete with the iron dragon, but now, including himself, he can't give full play to it.
Speaking of which, the name Chidian is the official name of the Fei Communist Party, and the soldiers and civilians who have come to the base from themselves, as well as the flying fans who climb the wall, do not use this name, but call this novel flying machine ...... Salmon, after all, the side projection is very similar, and Li Qi simply took this name as the calling code of the three squadrons of the First Brigade.
Retracting his thoughts, Li Qi called Tina, who was following the flying dragon all the way in the magic guide car, acting as a human vigilance radar: "Have you found the floating ship and the iron dragon?"
Tina said apologetically: "No, maybe in a higher place, you know, at an altitude of more than twenty kilometers, my senses will be disturbed." ”
"It's okay, that guy will definitely show up, you stay vigilant. ”
Li Qi said this, but his heart was a little anxious, the halfling warlock was quite cunning, hiding his main force.
It's a pity that the red power ...... No, the Salmon Fighter's floating furnace only has three levels, which not only limits the weight that can be floated, but also how high it can rise. In contrast, height is more restrictive than weight.
The sky of the main plane of the world of Fein is somewhat similar to the sky of the earth world, but it is very different. The sky here can also be divided into many levels, and they are divided by the degree of attenuation of the mana field. Not only did the air become thinner at high altitude, but the magic field also had a significant attenuation, both divine and magical power had weakened a lot.
Li Qi has done many experiments, and the three-stage floating furnace can only rise to fifteen or sixteen kilometers at the highest, and the air at this altitude is denser than that of the earth world, but the magic field has become very weak, and the fighter can no longer rise. Elle was able to fly upwards with a wave of her wings, but her physical strength was extremely hard.
According to the relevant accounts and Yuzan's addition, the height of the sky of the main plane of the world of Fein is tens of thousands of kilometers, and then there are tens of thousands of kilometers of strange sky, and then there is the barrier of the main plane. The inner layer of the barrier is a bizarre projection level, the sun and the moon are projected from the inner layer to the surface of the "Kukai", and then appear as the sunlight and moonlight on the earth, and the astral plane is also projected to the surface of the air and sea through the main plane barrier in a strange way, and then ...... by the earth The essence is what mortals see on the bottom of the sea and the sea.
Legend has it that in the era of magic, the Magic Emperors had floating ships that could sail on the surface of the Sky Sea, but the sky from the Sky Sea to the main plane barrier was equivalent to the Forbidden Demon Realm, and even the Magic Emperor could not touch that layer of the sky.
When Li Qi first figured out the composition of the sky here, he was still lamenting the strange structure of Finn's world, but now he is full of resentment about this complex and sophisticated structure. The halfling warlock's floating ship and iron dragon were definitely flying at an altitude of more than twenty kilometers, ready to wait for the opportunity to move, and his side was even more passive.
The fighters of the three squadrons were only blocking the army of dragons, and Richie's real victory was to find the halfling warlock and kill the guy directly with his own strength and Catherine's strength. If necessary, he did not hesitate to dispatch Qili. Two legends should be absolutely sure to do one.
Now that guy doesn't show up, he can only focus on the rusty wyvern first.
The rusty wyvern flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters pounced on Beta City at a speed of nearly two hundred kilometers, which was not fast for a dragon, but Tina, who was tracking on the ground, gradually couldn't catch up. Fortunately, the comprehensive service stations along the way arranged many observation posts, using eagle glasses, eagle eyes and even flying monsters to reconnoitre, constantly reporting the movements of the flying dragon group to the command tower, and then forwarding it to Li Qi.
At 3:15 p.m. on January 5, 1228, an army of more than 2,000 dragons arrived fifty kilometers north of Beta, where the salmon fleet had been on standby for half an hour.
"Follow me!"
The tactics had already been laid out, and Li Qi pushed the throttle to the maximum, manipulated the fighter, and took the lead, diving down from the air higher than the flying dragon.
Three squadron leaders followed, followed by dozens of fighters, and the hum of propellers churning the air sounded like a low, muffled thunder brewing in the clouds. '
Two or three thousand rusty wyverns spread out in the air, like a metal cloud, and countless flapping wings reflected a chaotic and dazzling light, like a raging tide.
Compared to dragons, they appear stubby and short, without wings, and cut diagonally down like flying fish-like groups. Compared with the sea of metallic dragons, their numbers are pitiful, and their swooping posture gives people the illusion that the sky and the sea are upside down, and the flying fish prey on seabirds.
Swooping down at a speed of six or seven hundred kilometers per hour, less than a thousand meters away from the Wyvern, Li Qi pulled up the fighter plane, and at the same time tilted the fuselage, allowing the fighter to fly vertically over the Wyvern group like a splash, and the blue dragon Halligos in the front cabin and Ellie behind him suddenly had an open shooting range.
"Disgusting flies blaspheming the blood of the dragons, your end has come!"
The blue dragon screamed in a crisp little voice, and manipulated the triple machine gun, firing blazing fire.
The thousands of flying dragons in front of him, even if he turned into a dragon form, he couldn't deal with it, and now he could use his weak human form to exert a stronger combat power than the dragon form, so he naturally enjoyed it.
Elle behind Richie was silent, firing a short shot with a quadruple new machine gun. Li Qi looked at it distractedly out of the corner of his eye, and each of the four ballistics exploded a little spark on a wyvern, and when the blood splashed, the moment the wyvern fell downward, he immediately transferred to a new target, and couldn't help but feel that Elle was really a master machine gunner and a grandmaster of airplanes.
This isn't the ultimate form for Elle, a Heavy and Air Defense Specialist, who hasn't yet pulled out her dedicated Destructive Rotating Machine Gun, which will have to be used against Iron Dragons and Floating Ships.
The fighters behind followed Li Qi's demonstration and tried their best to pour fire on the flying dragon. From a distance, a small school of salmon swooped down from the sky, grazing the leader of the Wyvern group, pouring countless ballistic paths down.
In the sky, the ceremonial flowers bloomed, clusters of orange sparks and scarlet blood splattered, and one after another wyvern wings stiffened, screaming fiercely, and fell straight down from the sky.
"I hit!"
"That's just me knocking it down!"
"Choose the target in front of you, why do you all hit the one that has been beaten into pulp!"
"Wings! Wings are their weak point! Break their wings!"
"Watch the formation!117 pull up! You're too close to the dragons!"
"305, why are you slowing down, speed up, this is not fighting on the ground!"
"Keep up with the long plane! Not only is there no one to rescue the team here, but it also weakens the firepower of the group, and you are a sinner!"
The pilot's channel was filled with shouts of nervousness and joy, and Litch didn't stop it, in fact, he was trying his best to prevent himself from participating in the yelling, and it was Halligos who was shouting and beating his wings just now, and Ellie didn't say a word.
Ellie is really a pacesetter in all aspects......
Just thinking so, a crisp but vague cry sounded in the channel: "Jisheng, your mother, drink pills, scum!"
The channel fell silent for a moment, and then at the same time there was a panicked response.
No one dared to listen to Ellie's reprimand, the battle had just begun, and each machine gunner was wielding multiple machine guns, which consumed a lot of power. The magic machine gun does not shoot charge, and each fighter carries tens of thousands of bullets, but it is not equal to unlimited ammunition.
Fish...... No, the swarm swept past the dragon's cloud of steel and climbed rapidly towards the sky. This wave of raids killed at least hundreds of Wyverns, but for the thousands of Wyverns, it was only a trivial loss, and the battle had just begun.
The group of flying dragons suddenly diverged under this wave of unexpected plunder, and the top layer of flying dragons instinctively chased towards the flying fish, and the flying dragons below were not affected, and continued to fly towards the south.
After receiving a report that only a few hundred wyverns were catching up, and seeing that most of the wyverns were not affected, Li Qi decisively ordered: "The salmon squadron continues to attack the wyvern team, and the salmon squadron meets the pursuers." ”
The two squadron commanders and the second and third squadrons maintained the formation, pulled out a long arc, and circled around the sky above the Wyvern Brigade again, preparing to repeat the old trick. Richie took the first squadron, which had slightly better personal skills, and turned to meet the pursuing Wyvern.
"Each squad fights on its own, pay attention to the principle of operation......"
Li Qi told him again, manipulated the fighter, and began to circle around.
"Ahh——!h
The fighter plane tilted in a circle, dragging a small group of wyverns down and down, making them feel that they had a chance of catching up, but they were always a little bit close. The distance of several hundred meters is always maintained, so that the front and rear machine guns can exert their firepower to the fullest. The blue dragon was so beaten that he forgot that he was also a dragon, and used the human scorn for dragons.
The wyverns were not defenseless, and when they approached a certain distance, they flapped their wings and flapped out a stream of bitter air, shooting out metal spikes along the way.
This kind of attack obviously can't compare to the level 3 wind arrow, but it's not powerless. The ironwood shell of the fighter crackled, and the cockpit canopy bonded with crystal and clear slime gum was cracked. A handful of spikes pierced through the shell and shot at the helmet and armor, causing the blue dragon to scream again.
Visually inspecting the magic furnace, floating furnace, and magic circuit will not be damaged, Li Qi is a little relieved, but the propeller may not.
Fortunately, in the past few days, the institute has made some improvements to the propeller, and wrapped the copper skin on the ironwood, which should not be easily broken......
As soon as he thought so, he saw that the propeller of a fighter plane in the distance was hit by a large metal spike, and even the magic bearing was lifted off, and the fighter lost power and its speed dropped suddenly.
"Hurry down! Hurry down!"
Li Qi subconsciously shouted, since the magic furnace and the floating furnace are good, they can let the fighter land safely.
The driver exclaimed in frustration: "Damn, the joysticks are all broken!"
Then he said decisively: "It's okay, it's more comfortable to fight the flying dragon like this!"
The planes were getting slower and slower, but they were spewing more blazing fire, and the pilots pushed open the hatches and fired with the automatic magic guns.
Dozens of wyverns surrounded them, the first target they caught, and their attacks became even more frantic in the excitement. Several wyverns rushed forward with fire, no longer attacking with metal spikes, but eager to taste the fresh flesh.
At this time, there was no point in descending, and there were flying dragons hooking the fighters with their claws.
Li Qi subconsciously adjusted the nose of the plane and rushed over, and the squadron leader of the first squadron suddenly said on the channel: "109, say hello to Her Royal Highness Alishan on our behalf." ”
"Ahaha, I really didn't expect us to be the first, although it's a little regrettable, but it's worth it!"
"Squadron Leader, Cardinal, leave us alone!
"Linde, you crow's mouth, I haven't admitted defeat yet, at least I can hold on for a few minutes......"
Not only did Li Qi shout on the channel to abandon the phone, but everyone else also shouted "Jump!"
Everyone was given a hastily made floating scroll, and there was still a chance to save their lives if they jumped.
"I don't want to be caught up by the Wyvern and be powerless!"
"There's a machine gun here, why jump?"
"I can still fight! I can kill a thousand wyverns! Ouch my arm! Give me back my stink lizard!"
Li Qi took a deep breath, turned to the private chat channel and said to the squadron leader: "Linde, take everyone to continue fighting, I will go to the rescue ......"
Linde said coldly, "Cardinal...... No, Captain, your mission is to lead us into battle, and you're always ready to solve the real objective, which is not what you should do. ”
This guy is really annoying......
But he's right!
Richie was hesitating, and there was a bang in the back seat, and Ellie turned into Catherine and pushed open the hatch.
In an instant, all kinds of thoughts flashed through him, and finally turned into a shout: "Leave it to you, Catherine!"
At this time, Catherine's light wings stretched, kicked the fighter plane, and pulled out a blazing white stream of light, which shot at the dragon head closest to the fighter.
With the swing of the great sword, the dragon's head exploded into red, white, gray, and brown shards, and Catherine rushed out again with the help of her strength, stepping on a mass of minced flesh with each stump, and several take-offs and landings flew onto the fighter.
The wyverns surrounding the fighter plane continued to wail and fall like flies with folded wings, and they were cleaned up in a matter of moments.
At this time, Linde also drove the plane over, opened the hatch cover on the back of the plane with debris, and let the three crew members who were already covered in blood squeeze in.
Lind's fighter plane swooped down to the ground, and ground troops had already arrived below the battlefield, and this crew should be able to save their lives.
Linde still didn't give up: "Captain, Deputy Captain Catherine, and I acted without permission, and I suggest punishment." ”
"I authorized the deputy captain to act, and if you want to punish me, as for you", Li Qi manipulated the fighter plane to pick up Catherine, and said with a straight look: "The punishment for you is to act as my captain and command the attack aircraft group, immediately!"
Linde said in a tangled manner: "Captain, you are breaking military discipline." ”
Catherine jumped into the cockpit and spoke: "Long-winded, officer!"
"Yes!"
Lindrisso shut up, and the channel also resounded with enthusiastic cheers, and the slogans of "Her Royal Highness Ellie is mighty", "Queen Catherine the Flying Dragon Slayer", and "Colonel Catherine is invincible" rang out.
In the rearview mirror, Richie saw that Catherine had turned back into Ellie, and proudly rubbed her little upturned nose.
The pursuing Wyverns were beaten to pieces, and they chased after the brigade in a panic, and several plunders from the other two squadrons dragged out hundreds of Wyverns.
Li Qi manipulated the fighter planes and led the first squadron to pounce and continue to intercept, and a large group of flying dragons still flew firmly towards Beta City.
A rough estimate shows that in the end, half of the Wyverns will pounce on Beta, and those Wyverns will have to be handed over to Beta's air defense forces.
Li Qi secretly prayed: "I hope they can hold on......"
