XXIII. The Most Dangerous Enemy (2)

Sonia. Major Yang sat in her Hellcat fighter and waited patiently, until the two Banshee fighters broke away from the fleet, followed the scout kitten into the ambush circle she had set, and watched the two enemy planes impatiently chasing all the way, she couldn't help but smile shallowly, after suffering a few losses, it seems that the empire still hasn't learned the lesson, the pilots who flew these two Banshee fighters are obviously inexperienced, and it is very likely that they are rookie pilots who have just graduated. She bit her red lip, it just so happened that Xue Qianyi, who had just been assigned to the Blue Angel Squadron and became her new subordinates, and Anne were also newcomers who had just graduated from the Flying Academy, although they were all very good in terms of flying skills, but their biggest problem was their lack of experience and self-confidence, so that they could quickly accept a baptism of battle and create a chance to destroy the enemy, which was conducive to allowing them to build up confidence faster.

Just when she wanted to wait a little longer, wait for the enemy planes to get farther away from the fleet, the two Banshee fighters suddenly gave up the pursuit of the reconnaissance kitten, turned the nose and began to return to the fleet, the major thought, they finally found that something was wrong, but unfortunately it seemed too late, although it was not the best time, but it should be okay. The major managed to calm her mind, too much passion hindered the efficiency of the battle and the correct judgment of the situation, she turned on the communication channel.

"Here is Angel No. 1 calling, Qianyi, you go to attack the enemy's No. 1 plane, I am responsible for covering, Annie, your target is No. 2 plane, Lan Lan is in charge of covering, this is the first time you have participated in actual combat, come on."

"Got it, Angel One."

"Understood, Sister Sonia, it's up to me"

...........

The alarm sounded in the cockpit of the two Banshee fighters, this is the warning sound of a missile approaching, Ruison glanced at the sensor screen, four bright yellow dots are rushing towards him and Schneier's Banshee fighter, it seems that the warning of the Keyhole AWACS people and their hunch are correct, they were really ambushed by the Federation fighters, they must have turned off their engines and hid in several large wreckage around, so the sensors of the Banshee fighters could not detect their existence.

"Schneier, spread out and attack freely."

"Understood. Damn, it's more with less. His friend looked at the four red dots that appeared on the sensor, and couldn't help but complain, the last time the two of them fought the first time, they were two against three, this time it was good, it became two against four, Schneier couldn't help but wonder, when can we be fair enough to participate in the battle.

"Be careful." Ruisen's expression was a little suspicious, the enemy specially set up a trap to wait for them to come, which was very different from the last time they were unexpected, "We were lucky last time, not necessarily good luck every time, insist, wait a few minutes for reinforcements to arrive immediately." ”

The two Banshee fighters dispersed to the left and right in a very tacit understanding, and the Hellcat fighters that followed behind were also divided into two groups, each two formed a team to deal with them one separately, and followed them like a shadow, without relaxation.

Risen pushed the joystick, increased the thrust to the maximum, and turned on the rear burner, he continued to turn left at high speed, and at the same time pressed the button to release the bait, a series of missile decoys bloomed behind the plane one after another, and the two image recognition missiles deviated from their original targets under the action of the decoy, and exploded a little behind Risen plane.

Before he had time to wipe a cold sweat, a series of red and yellow beams flew from the position in front of the original route of the Banshee fighter, and the hit was quite accurate, Resson was taken aback, fortunately he turned in time to avoid it, if he had kept the original route just now, the string of beams just now should have bloomed on his tail.

Now Risen knew the strength of the enemy plane behind him, the enemy pilot seemed to be quite good, he had to be careful, he controlled the fighter plane to continue to evade the maneuver, while looking back, he wanted to see what kind of enemy set up a trap for them.

Two Hellcat fighters painted in bright sky blue paint immediately came into his field of vision, and Risen felt even more strange when he saw it, it was not the same as the normal Hellcat fighter unit of the Federation. Generally speaking, the reason why fighters add paint on the surface of the aircraft is to have better low visibility, confuse the enemy's vision, and reduce the possibility of being discovered by the enemy's naked eye, so starfighters such as Hellcat and Banshee generally use black, dark blue or dark gray camouflage paint similar to the background color of the dark starry sky. Not to mention that there are also some red and yellow decorative colors on it, isn't that easy for the enemy to spot? The enemy dares to use such a livery, either because he is too arrogant, or because he has considerable confidence in his own strength.

The two Hellcats continued to approach, the continuous energy beams fired from the laser cannon and the photon cannon continued to sweep around the Banshee fighter like a reddish-yellow whip, Resson manipulated the fighter plane, doing a parabolic motion in a complex spiral flight, although the girl sitting in the Hellcat tried to aim accurately again and again before firing, but it seemed that the speed of the front sight was always a little worse, unable to keep up with the continuous maneuvering enemy aircraft, and the continuous fire also consumed too much cannon energy, after Risen made the fourth consecutive parabolic turn, He was pleased to find that the attack from the rear had finally stopped for the time being, and the girl now had to wait for her cannon to recharge, and now it was time for him to fight back.

Sonia, who has been calmly observing the battle situation, couldn't help but shake her head, newcomers are newcomers after all, and the lack of experience is the biggest problem, they are full of frivolity, eager to express themselves, a little less calm and composed, they don't know how to seize the opportunity to fire, they don't know how to control the number of shots, save energy, and often want to shoot down enemy planes at once. If the enemy is a mediocre hand, then it may really fulfill their wishes, but if the enemy is a veteran, as it is today, the strength and weakness will be transposed, which is very dangerous.

Then again, she was quite surprised by the two pilots who piloted the Banshee-style fighter, although they were novices, their skills were indeed quite good, although the one in front of her, although she was forced to be embarrassed by Xue Qianyi, and the shield was hit continuously, and it was almost exhausted, but it was quite rare to be able to hold on to it until now and not be shot down, because she knew what kind of level the pilots who could be selected for the Blue Angels squadron were. And the pilot of the banshee fighter that Lan Lan and Anne dealt with is even more terrible, now that pilot piloted the fighter plane has turned against the guest and bitten Anne, if it weren't for Lan Lan to effectively cover by the side, maybe Anne would have been shot down now.

But Risen is not in the mood to shoot down the sky-blue painted Hellcat fighter now, he bites the Hellcat just to make a show, he has not forgotten that the enemy is two, there is another one close to cover, he is not so easy to succeed, the last battle in the Corcoran system he actually took advantage of the gap between the two Hellcats a little farther away and the cover could not be successful. His purpose now was only to force the two enemy planes to go on the defensive and save themselves, so that he could rush to save his friend, because he found that the situation of Cornell was really bad. And once a friend is shot down, he will deal with four by himself, and it will be a matter of time before he is shot down.

Ressen hurriedly locked onto the Hellcat fighter in front, a thermal homing missile chased towards the tail spout of the kitten, the kitten in front immediately released a series of hot flares, sharply turned to evade, its companion in order to prevent Resson from continuing to pursue, maneuvered the fighter to rush towards Ryson's banshee fighter from the left side, a series of dazzling energy beams blocked the nose of the banshee fighter, and an image recognition missile also shot out from under the fuselage of the Hellcat fighter and flew towards Ryson's banshee.

Risen piloted the fighter plane to do a roll, threw off a string of missile baits behind the plane, dodged those pesky energy beams and the missile, and took advantage of the gap between one kitten was busy saving himself and the other was busy covering his companions for the time being, he threw down the two fighters and rushed straight in the direction of Schneier and the other two Hellcats.

"Thunderbird 12, turn to 210, I'll cover you." He called his wingman while turning on the afterburner.

"Damn, this damn bastard, despises us so much." Anne's face flushed as she dodged the missile attack, she felt that her pride had been seriously damaged, and she hated the pilot of the Banshee fighter who left them behind, was their strength so bad? It's so bad that that bastard can ignore it, but he has gone through several eliminations before joining the Blue Angels. The little girl quickly reversed the direction of the Hellcat and chased after the bastard who had killed a thousand knives.

"Wait, Annie, Annie, calm down......" Her companion shook her head helplessly, alas, what did this look like, just in case, she had no choice but to follow Annie's Hellcat fuselage.

Ryson's eyes were fixed on the two Hellcats that were chasing his friend's landline in front of them, one of them was firing and was painted the same sky blue livery as the other Hellcats, and the other was even more strange, painted with a pink fighter paint, Resson knew that it was bad, and it seemed that their troubles were not over today, because the pilots who had the right to choose different liveries on the fighters generally had special identities, either squadron leaders or aces with excellent records, and the pink painted fighter had never fired.

Sonia. Major Yang didn't ignore Risson, she had already seen Risen rushing in their direction, while Anne and Lan Lan were left far behind, she frowned, was the pilot of that Banshee fighter really a rookie? His strength is actually stronger than she thinks, she estimated the time, relying on Xue Qianyi and Annie alone, this battle is really enough, the imperial reinforcement fighters are already on the way to the battlefield, if they don't end the battle as soon as possible, then their own side that set the trap may become the prey of others.

She couldn't delay any longer, she made up her mind, while the two Banshee fighters had not yet converged, it would be much easier to destroy one first, and then deal with the remaining one. At that time, four against one, it should be able to deal with the other Banshee fighter soon, and then quickly evacuate the battlefield before the Empire's reinforced fighter group arrived, they have been delayed in this place for a long time, as for Anne and Xue Qianyi, who are newly assigned to the Blue Angel Squadron, they are still worse than the rest of the Blue Angel Squadron, and the plan to let them complete the first enemy annihilation has not been completed, so today will be regarded as a profound lesson for them, so that they will not be blind in the future. And herself, too, has to take a good look at it, she really underestimated these two pilots of the empire today, and she must learn from them in the future, and she can't make similar mistakes again.
