64 Victory in the first battle
The duty of the Sky King Rider is to protect the order of the airspace around the royal capital, and with the heart of Lin Geyi T7, the airspace within a radius of 500 kilometers is under the jurisdiction of the Sky King Rider. There are more than a hundred air pirates active in such a vast airspace, peeking into the bustling air corridors of Lingear City, and almost every day you can hear the news that merchant ships have been attacked by air pirates.
Although the attacks of the air thieves are so frequent, the success rate is not 100%. Basically, on average, one out of three merchant ships attacked by air thieves was able to get away with it, and as for why there was such a high chance of escape, it was inseparable from the hard work of the Sky King's cavalry soldiers.
"Under normal circumstances, when a merchant ship is attacked by air pirates, it will immediately release red smoke as a distress signal, and it can be visually observed within 50 kilometers on a clear day. As soon as the air riders patrolling nearby showed a distress signal from the red smoke, they immediately rushed to reinforce the merchant ships. As long as time and distance are still available, the attacked merchant ships can usually be saved. ”
Wolf Flame and the two airriders walked smoothly in parallel in the air along the established patrol route, while Bodan took the time to answer the "interceptor", what is that?"
“...... You don't know the 'Interceptor'?" Bodan's voice sounded rather startled.
“...... Don't you know, it's weird?"
"So, little one, you should be content! Although Bai Xiang Chang gave you the wolf flame, you can't wield its ability at all with your current ability. You'd better hurry up to the First Wing to report, and let me train you well!" Bodan expressed his desire to be a talent very explicitly, but before Kirin could reply, Cruz's voice interjected.
"Captain, let's talk about pulling people later, there is a situation in the direction of three o'clock. ”
"What?" the Kirin quickly looked in the direction Cruz had said, only to see a cloud of red smoke slowly rising from the distant horizon.
........................
The red smoke represents that a merchant ship is being attacked by an air pirate group, and judging from the location of the smoke, the distance between the place where the merchant ship was attacked and the Qilin and others is about twenty or thirty kilometers.
"Cruz, we're going to outflank us in two ways. Bodan immediately made a judgment. "Boy, you're going to stay here......"
"I'll go too. Kirin interrupted Bodan, and the field reversed the direction of the wolf flame.
"Bastard, obey orders, layman who has never been on the battlefield, are you going to die?"
"Layman?" made the Kirin arc out of arrogance. "I've been fighting monsters since I was five years old, and I've fought more than I eaten. As for whether it's a layman, just watch!"
The Kirin stepped on the throttle valve of his right foot hard, and the "Backfire II" engine behind Wolf Flame immediately let out a deafening roar, and the two staggered propellers wrung the air into pieces, and more than 3,000 horsepower dragged Wolf Flame's fuselage forward, leaving the two production models behind him almost in the blink of an eye. Under the blank gaze of Bo Dan and the others, the wolf flame seemed to turn into a black storm, sweeping through the sky with a high level that ordinary bodies could not bear. At the same time, the unicorn in the cockpit was also pressed on the seat by the huge inertial force, and it was difficult to breathe for a while.
"Really...... What a fierce horse, this guy ......."
Kirin struggled to secure the direction of Wolf Flame, but the strong torque from the levers on both sides made him almost unable to grasp it, so he had to retract Wolf Flame's wings. As the wind resistance of the two wings decreased, the flight attitude of the wolf flame gradually stabilized, and then it entered a state of full cruise.
The distance between the Qilin and the attack site was about thirty kilometers, but under the excellent afterburn of the wolf flame, it only took less than a cigarette to take the scene of the air thief's looting into the field of vision: the attack was a medium-sized passenger and cargo airship, an air pirate ship was on its right side, the left and right engines of the airship stopped, obviously its organ room had been controlled by the air thieves, and a large amount of goods were piled up on its upper deck, and a gang of air thieves were trying to transport them to their own ships.
In addition, Kirin noticed that the coerced passengers had gathered at the back of the airship's deck, with several air thieves armed with scimitars surrounding them, and several victims lying at their feet. Kirin saw with his own eyes that an old man was forced by the air thief to jump from the side of the deck into the void, and the old man dragged for a long time
Falling into the sea of clouds, the air thieves laughed excitedly.
The Kirin couldn't help but let out a roar of rage and stepped on the throttle valve to the limit. The wolf flame roared even harder, and the raging air thieves finally noticed the looming calamity, and immediately fell into a panic that was completely different from the previous one. The combat effectiveness of the air pirate ship could not be compared with that of the air horsemen, and the air thieves had no intention of resisting at all, so they panicked and cut the cable connecting the airship, turned the bow of the ship and quickly took refuge in the clouds high up.
I have to admit that this gang of air thieves moved quite quickly, and when Wolf Flame arrived at the location of the airship, the air thief ship escaped a considerable distance. In order to confirm the condition of the passengers, the Kirin first circled around the airship. Wolf Flame spun its wings, drawing a circle two hundred meters in diameter in the air, and flung a tangent line at the point where the head and tail of the circle met, and the end of the tangent line pointed straight to the fleeing air pirate ship.
Looking from behind, you can see that the four engines of the air pirate ship are spewing violent steam, and the air thieves seem to be fleeing with all their strength. Although their efforts made people want to tear a tear of sympathy, but the degree of wolf flame could throw Bodan and them off for several kilometers, how could it be compared to a large-tonnage air pirate ship? The Qilin stared at the air pirate ship closely, and the distance between the two sides was shortening by a very obvious degree.
Since the wooden air thief ship could not withstand the cannons of the air cavalry, once it was caught up, there was only one way to die, and the air thieves who were unwilling to be captured began to try to resist.
Three howitzers and seven improvised guns and stones placed in the stern of the ship formed a thin barrage of bullets and blasted towards the wolf flames. The Kirin didn't expect the air thief to fight back, and he couldn't react for a while, and three cannonballs swept under the wolf flame, and only one stone bird hit the target, but due to the lack of power, only a spark was rubbed on the scale armor of the Korodo dragon, and then it was bounced out.
The wolf flame was not damaged in the slightest, but the Kirin was taken aback, and at the same time realized that rushing through it would hit the muzzle of the air thief, so he decided to change his tactics.
Qilin has seen only a handful of air battles, and the most lacking is actual combat experience, but in his extremely limited actual combat memory, there is a scene that he remembers most clearly - Nuo Yin drove a cyan air horse to catch up with the air pirate ship, ascended with a beautiful posture like a blue bird, reversed, and then dived vertically down, destroying the air pirate ship cleanly.
At that time, Kirin simply thought that Noin was very powerful, but now he could see a little bit of what was hidden behind these simple movements. Whether it is the timing of the choice to dodge the attack, the fluency of the reverse dive, or the agility to cut through the dead corner of the air pirate ship's defense, it is the essence of the trick formed after thousands of tempers in actual combat. Of course, Kirin didn't think that his current self could be compared to Noyin, but if he just imitated it, he felt that he could do it.
At this time, the air pirate ship blasted out a second barrage, and a fierce web composed of three cannonballs and seven stone skulls pounced towards the wolf flame.
The Kirin stared at the fierce arrow attacking in front of him, took a deep breath, and then pulled back the joystick with a thud.
In response to his movements, Wolf Flame suddenly stretched its huge black wings, and the oncoming strong wind crashed into the downward inclined wing surface, and the resulting combined force instantly carried Wolf Flame to a high altitude away from danger.
Three cannonballs and seven stone swords flew feebly under the wolf flame, while the Kirin in the cockpit was pressed tightly against the seat, and the vertical downward gravity and the upward increase of the engine worked on him, and the result was that the Kirin felt that his weight had become at least three times his usual weight.
He looked up and saw that the position of the pirate ship had gradually moved from the back of the cockpit to the top of the cockpit.
The Kirin saw the frightened appearance of the air thieves on the ship, and they carried the heavy spear and stone crossbow in vain, trying to use it against the enemies who circled overhead.
Lin Lin sneered and released the throttle valve on his right foot. As the sound of the engine behind him faded and the gravity on him diminished, he even felt himself float.
In the next second when the climb level dropped to zero, the wolf flame began to fall, and the nose of the plane naturally turned one hundred and eighty degrees, pointing straight at the air pirate ship directly below, the uncovered midbelly position.
At the same time as confirming that the air thief ship appeared directly ahead, the Kirin stepped on the throttle valve again, and the wolf flame roared and swooped down. Kirin saw the scene of the air thieves on the deck dropping their weapons and wailing and fleeing, but the appearance of the old man who was forced to jump ship by the air thieves came to mind.
He exhaled softly, condensed his hatred and murderous intent on the fingertips of his right hand, stared at the back compartment of the air thief ship's floating mechanism, and pulled the trigger the moment the crosshair coincided with the target.
Four 25-caliber cannons spewed out ferocious tongues of fire, and expensive bone bullets poured out at a frequency of 480 per minute, tearing through the armor of the pirate ship, breaking the skeleton of the armored hull, shattering the floating mechanism under the skeleton, all the way through the lower hull of the air pirate ship, and shooting into the void unabated.
The Kirin kept running out of bullets before pulling up the nose of the plane. At the same time, losing the control of the levitation mechanism, the empty energy on the air thief ship began to rage, and the wooden hull quickly became the bait of the violent energy, and in the sound of explosions one after another, the air thief ship quickly turned into a burning fireball and slowly fell towards the ground.
