Chapter 690: Take the initiative
According to statistics, a total of fifty-two flying wings were lost in this battle, most of which fell outside the city, and even if they were recovered, it was estimated that there would be no repair value.
In addition to the flying wing, 31 pilots were killed, 16 were seriously injured, and only five were slightly injured, and it was impossible to fly the plane again in a short time.
The air combat team's record is remarkable, defeating almost 400 fierce beasts, and the three-person team of Ye Yunyang, Mei Yu and Li Hao is the most prominent, accounting for half of the record.
Lei Shaoyuan first praised the warriors who returned triumphantly, summed up the battle just now, and then said some words of encouragement to everyone, and finally announced the dismissal of the meeting.
Ye Yunyang was left behind, and Lei Shaoyuan got straight to the point: "The three of you cooperate very well, why don't you teach everyone this tactic?"
"Please, they've just learned how to drive well, it's hard to be able to do it in the sky without crashing, and they're still trying to cooperate with each other, don't joke. He said with a glare.
Elder Lei Shao blushed: "What you said makes sense, at most they have just learned to walk, and it is difficult for some strong people to let them run." You did a great job today, and although the cost of casualties was a bit large, it fundamentally reduced the casualties on the city walls, because the defenders saved at least a few thousand lives because of the presence of air teams. ”
Ye Yunyang shrugged: "Actually, we can do better, we have to hurry up and train next, the mobile and flexible individual flying wings are all like this, if the medium-sized flying wings are sent, the casualties will be greater." ”
Lei Shaoyuan asked shamelessly: "Do you have any good suggestions?"
"No!" he said very shamefully, and then said: "On the Holy Heaven Continent, a person has to go through at least two years of training before he becomes a real pilot, piloting flying wings alone to carry out tasks, what about our side? ”
This is not to belittle the Protoss pilots, to be honest, they can master the flying skills in such a short period of time, which is already quite good, but compared to the Terran pilots, it is still a world of difference.
Lei Shaoyuan smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said, "No way, the Council of Elders only agrees to introduce flying wings, but does not agree to invite the Terran pilot to come over." In fact, there is nothing difficult to do this, just need to change the assessment standards of the Feather Gate, and do the extraordinary method at extraordinary times, this is the most basic workaround, they are about to be wiped out, and they are still worried about this and that, God knows what they are thinking. ”
If you change to a Terran pilot, the casualties of the previous battle will be reduced by at least 70%, and the battle record will be at least doubled.
Ye Yunyang smiled: "Why don't you say this to those old guys?"
The old man's eyes glared: "I'm stupid!"
That's a bunch of old-fashioned old guys, and to talk to them about flexibility is definitely taking the initiative to find death.
At lunchtime, Ye Yunyang and Li Hao walked into the dining area with a plate, and Mei Yu immediately stretched out his hand to greet them.
The two walked over and sat down with Mei Yu.
Ye Yunyang had a general appetite, ate a few bites hastily, and said, "Haozi, don't you think it's strange?"
"What are you referring to?" Li Hao asked rhetorically.
"Beasts. He put down his chopsticks and said, "The beasts are concentrated in the east, and each time they choose the same section of the city wall as the main target, is this the wisdom that beasts should have?"
Li Hao frowned: "What do you want to say?"
"I suspect that there is a leader among the beasts, and all the beasts obey its commands, otherwise how can they advance and retreat in an orderly manner. He speculated.
Li Hao lowered his voice: "Don't say this kind of thing outside, some people will say that you spread rumors." ”
His eyes widened: "Is this considered a rumor?"
"Don't forget, so many people told the truth before, what was the result?" Li Hao said meaningfully: "They talked about the beast tide on the street, just to remind everyone to prepare for the enemy, but they were arrested as spreading rumors, and they were all sentenced to serious crimes! ”
Ye Yun raised his eyebrows and tightened: "Deliberately let them go up to die?"
"Who said it wasn't!" Li Hao continued: "There is one more thing you don't know, Zheng Anyan, the chief elder of the Ministry of Public Security, who was in charge of arresting people before, was the one who carried out the orders of the Council of Elders, arrested those so-called rumors, and was sent outside the city to spy on intelligence before the war began, and the dozen or so people who traveled with him were all killed, and then the black cauldron naturally fell on him. ”
"You mean, Zheng Anyan carried the black cauldron to the Council of Elders?" Ye Yunyang thought of the crux of the matter.
Li Hao nodded: "What my father said, there shouldn't be anything wrong." Obviously, Zheng Anyan is not willing to carry the black cauldron, but is regarded as an outcast, only when he dies, those people can put the blame on him and achieve the effect of calming the people's grievances. ”
Ye Yun is on fire, what is this a group of things, turning their hands into clouds and covering their hands for rain, on the surface they are benevolent and moral, but they are doing shady things behind their backs.
"Politics is like that, everything is in the interests of the first place, everything else can be compromised for it, and everything else can be abandoned. Li Hao shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is also the reason why my father doesn't want me to get involved in the Presbyterian Church, he doesn't want me to become a hypocrite. ”
Ye Yunyang said with a straight face: "Uncle Li is right. ”
After eating, the three of them were called by Lei Shaoyuan to study tactics, and he was very interested in the cooperation method of the three of them, and wanted to promote it in the air combat team.
"No play. Ye Yunyang said very facelessly.
Lei Shaoyuan was stunned: "Why?"
Ye Yunyang smiled faintly: "First of all, all new things need a process of cognition, learning, mastery and digestion, which is not something that can be done in a day or two, the reason why the three of us cooperate well is because we trust each other and dare to hand over our backs to each other, do others dare? ”
He took out the intercom from his pocket and said, "This is a communication tool, with which the degree of coordination can be raised to a higher level, in the tense atmosphere of battle, it is useless to just gesture and make eyes." ”
Lei Shaoyuan glared: "There is such a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier?"
"The presbytery didn't plan to give money, what could it do if it was said in advance, and they wanted me to give it away for nothing, don't dream. He snorted.
Lei Shaoyuan also felt bad about some of the Elders' practices, but there was nothing he could do, but he still didn't give up: "Since you can't cooperate in a short time, what do you say?"
"Take the initiative. Ye Yun raised his eyebrows and said: "As early as the beginning of the emergence of the beast tide, I felt that we should take the initiative to attack, not passive defense, now we have flying wings in our hands, air combat weapons and incendiary bombs, why are we still standing on the city wall as before, stupidly waiting for the enemy to attack, passive defense is impossible to win the war." ”
Lei Shaoyuan's eyes lit up: "You mean, send medium-sized flying wings to attack and sneak attack the lair of the beasts?"
"You finally thought of this, I thought you would have this idea the moment you saw the flying wings!" Ye Yunyang looked like he hated iron and steel, and said, "It seems that your Protoss has been murdered too deeply by fixed thinking, it's really sad." ”
"Boy, you can't be polite. Lei Shaoyuan blew his beard and glared.
He shrugged: "I'm just telling the truth, if you don't want to hear it, I don't want to say it." ”
"Talking to you can really make people angry. Lei Shaoyuan said angrily: "Since you put forward the suggestion of taking the initiative, it means that you must already have an idea in your heart, and the dean has other things to do, so I won't point fingers, Ye Yunyang listens to the order!"
He quickly stood up: "Here!"
The old man said in a deep voice: "This dean, as the chief elder of the air combat team, orders you to lead the air combat team to carry out the task of attacking the lair of the beasts, the battle plan is your own decision, and you are fully responsible for the combat process, you don't need to ask me for instructions on anything, I only look at the results, understand?"
"Understood. Ye Yunyang smiled, of course it was best if no one was next to him.
Lei Shaoyuan turned around and left, leaving Mei Yu and Li Hao looking at Ye Yunyang with strange eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" he felt a little furious.
Li Hao clapped his hands and said, "Amazing, a few sarcastic words, you have taken the power of the air combat team, it seems that you have eaten Dean Lei thoroughly." ”
"Calm down!" Ye Yunyang pretended to say: "It's not easy for me, in order to help you get out of trouble, not only do you have to fight with fierce beasts, but you also have to fight with the elders who are high above, you two are not allowed to dismantle my platform, you know?"
Mei Yu smiled: "You are in power now, do we dare not obey orders?"
An hour later, two hundred medium-sized wings were waiting for them, all of them were stacked with incendiary bombs, Ye Yunyang repeatedly talked about the skills and essentials of bomb throwing, and then he boarded the flying wings at the front of the queue.
Li Hao and Mei Yu boarded the two flying wings next to each other, and another 120 individual flying wings were responsible for escort tasks, and the fleet took off one after another, formed a formation in the air, and swooped towards the east of the city.
Only a few pterosaurs were in charge of the air guard over the beast's nest, and the wings of the individual soldiers were the first to pounce on them to attract their attention.
The medium-sized flying wings immediately accelerated, rushing towards the place where the beasts were densely concentrated, and Ye Yunyang took the lead and threw down all the hundred incendiary bombs.
Boom Boom!
Call!
With the sound of the explosion, the viscous and thick oil flew in all directions, and the beasts suddenly exploded, they panicked, and then there was a stampede, and the smaller beasts were directly trampled into meat cakes by the big beasts.
The other wings threw bombs one after another, turning into a sea of fire within a radius of four miles, and the screams of fierce beasts came and went.
Flying beasts rose into the air one after another, and according to the rules established before the operation, the medium-sized wings returned immediately after completing the bomb dropping, and did not fight with the enemy, and the individual wings were responsible for breaking the rear.
The roar of the wings pierced the sky, and the defenders saw the tragic situation on the other side of the beast's nest, and they all applauded, and the heavy emotions that had been suppressed for so many days were finally completely released at this moment.
