On the morning of October 8, 1940, Shancheng, Qijiang County

The two P-39 fighters were conducting combat drills in the sky, looking at the two fighters who were constantly fighting and chasing, there were bursts of shouts and cheers on the ground from time to time, and the confrontation between these two fighters was too beautiful and too intense, so that everyone couldn't keep the excitement in their hearts.

It has only been a dozen days since these fighters arrived in Qijiang County, and most of the trainees have only been able to take off and land on a single plane, and there has also been an accident in which the landing gear was broken, so it is certainly not those students who are full of hope and excitement who are spreading joy in the sky.

At this time, it was Chen Zhigang and Wang Yue who were demonstrating to the students in the sky. Anyway, there is no way to leave the Gulf of Aden quickly, Wang Yue simply ran to stay here in 1940, and wait for the bald eagle to be tired of tossing, don't look at the fact that he can't bring weapons and equipment here, he can't be idle at all, this is not, he was pulled to be a flight instructor just after he came, and demonstrated the performance of the P-39 fighter to the trainees.

No wonder those Western pilots don't like this thing, the performance of the P-39 fighter is really good, but it is really too difficult to operate, it is very laborious and experience-taking, and the smoothness of the action is not good, especially when fighting, the load on the body is very large, a propeller fighter, it is more uncomfortable to drive than a jet, and it is not right, there is an anti-load suit when driving a jet fighter, there is no such thing as a jet fighter, and the airtightness of the cockpit is not good, there is no pressure balance at all, it is uncomfortable.

However, the speed, ceiling and flexibility of this fighter are very good, especially the low-altitude combat performance, which is definitely comparable to that of the Lager-3, of course, the premise is that the plane is not piloted by Wang Yue, and if he is to pilot, the P-51 is not easy to make, just like the time of the Chongqing air battle, who makes people hang it.

Yesterday evening, a Japanese reconnaissance plane flew over, but it happened to meet Chen Zhigang who had taken off into the air, and the devil pilot was about to run away at that time, but after a while he was chased up and volleyed in the air, and the devil pilot did not even have a chance to parachute.

On the same day, the Nationalist Air Force in Shancheng also sent planes to shoot down a Japanese reconnaissance plane, which aroused the enthusiasm of the general public who had not seen the Nationalist Air Force for many days, and the Air Force simply released all 130 Dwatina D520 fighters and 133 LeO451 bombers in its hands, and set off a warm and unusual parade, the scale of which was comparable to the parade on the day of the liberation of Peiping.

The national army once again has a powerful air force, and finally they don't have to worry about the bombing of devils' planes, how can they be unhappy. Compared to the invincible army and the navy, which cannot be seen at all, the citizens are obviously closer to and identify with the air force.

Wang Yue also sighed, the training of the reserve force of the Air Force is really amazing, it actually took out so many pilots at once, and quickly mastered the new aircraft, unlike these students of the Eighth Route Army, who are completely a group of raw melon eggs, just the landing gear, where are you going to buy it, and there is no such thing in the spare parts.

After biting Chen Zhigang from behind for the third time, the latter finally gave up, gently shook the wings and landed with Wang Yue, no way, he really didn't understand how Wang Yue piloted this plane so skillfully, it was just too shocking, you haven't started to move, people can bite you, and you can't fight hungry at all.

"Brother Wang, how long will it take for us pilots to carry out the mission?" After landing, before Wang Yue could take a sip of water, Li Yunlong came over dogleggingly, his eyes were full of anticipation, this guy had begged Chen Zhigang many times to take him to the air in a training plane, and now he was looking forward to using the aircraft to cover the operation.

"Didn't the Ministry of Military Affairs just reject your request to go to the Ninth War Zone to participate in the war?" Wang Yue couldn't help but glance at this guy, he was planning to build Qijiang County into a base area, but this guy was good, he actually applied to go to the Ninth War Zone to participate in the war, it was simply the rhythm of his own overall deployment, and he had invested so much energy and thought, once Li Yunlong and the provisional 68th Division moved, he would have to follow this move, and the construction of Qijiang County would definitely be cheaper than that of the mountain city.

"Isn't it still the duty of suppressing bandits in the Qijiang River Basin, I wonder if it's time to make a move on Wu Datou in Shiqian County, Xie Baoqing and his people have been lurking in Shiqian County for half a month, and if I don't move, I'm worried that something will happen." Li Yunlong explained with a smile that now Wu Heqing's industries and forces in areas outside Shiqian County have basically been swept away by him, and there has been a lot of movement, so General Chen also personally came forward to warn him, telling him that if Wu Heqing cannot be solved within half a month, this action must be stopped.

"Air combat is definitely not possible, but if you perform simple ground target training, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?" As he spoke, Wang Yue turned his gaze to Chen Zhigang on the side, the flight cadets used the training plane to carry out bomb dropping and strafing training, and the results were good, as long as the P-39 did not conduct air combat, the problem was not big, as long as the time of use and meteorological conditions were controlled, so that there would be no problems when they landed.

"Division commander, give me another week, I promise that the flying team will be able to participate in the battle in a week!" After thinking about it for a while, Chen Zhigang patted his chest and promised that now every pilot has to lift off for more than eight hours a day, and in another week, the cumulative flight time of these guys will exceed 100 hours. m.

"Okay, okay, Lao Chen, we Lao Li will know that you are a reliable one! That, Brother Wang, do you think you can find a way to help us get some bombs? If Li Yunlong simply wants to confirm whether the flying team can participate in the war, he can ask Chen Zhigang directly, and the reason why he wants to pull Wang Yue to ask is that he wants a batch of aerial bombs to be used for ground attacks, you must know that the aerial bombs they have now are only lime bombs for the sixth purpose of the first teaching.

"This, Lao Li, my bomb reserves in the bases of the surrounding countries have been emptied, and I am afraid that I will not be able to transport them to Qijiang County within a week." Hearing this, Wang Yue's face showed embarrassment, there is no way, in 2023, he will still be blocked in the small city in the Gulf of Aden, at least, he will not be able to leave until the underwater search of the bald eagle is over.

"Brother Wang, if you don't have aerial bombs, what can you do, you can't use shells to blow up, right?" Li Yunlong couldn't help but glance at Wang Yue as he spoke, he also knew about the bombing that happened in North China, and like the deputy commander-in-chief, he also felt that this should be done by Wang Yue, so now he also has some hope in his heart.

"It's not easy to do, Lao Li, if you use artillery shells, you may need to change the hanger of the aircraft, and it will also affect the center of gravity of the aircraft to take off, and you need to do a certain amount of special training to fly, and the impact point of the artillery shells is not easy to control, which will affect the bombing effect very much, so it is best to use aerial bombs." Listening to Li Yunlong's words, Wang Yue felt a little painful in his brain, if he used aerial bombs instead of artillery shells that time, he would not be so miserable, in the final analysis, the trajectory of artillery shells is too difficult to calculate.

"What's the matter, it's really troublesome." Li Yunlong was a little embarrassed, if he wanted to take Wu Datou, it was really not necessary to use the plane, but if there was air support, it would definitely be faster, and it could also greatly reduce the loss.

"Buy, it's not too complicated, go directly to the Ordnance Industry Department, let them help customize the department, I got another batch of seafood today, it's not easy for you to exchange some bombs with the Ministry of Military Affairs." Wang Yue pouted, although the quality of the bombs of the Ordnance Industry Administration is not good, they are also self-produced, and the bombs that can be used to help customize the P-39 fighter are still not a big problem.

As for seafood, it is definitely the result of Wang Yue's idleness and discomfort, when he came over recently, he would use his personal space to bring a batch of seafood from the Gulf of Aden over to Li Yunlong as military rations, but the amount was too large, one million cubic meters at a time, and the people of the 68th Division would definitely not be able to eat it all, so in the past few days, Xue Feng and Zhao Gang have mobilized the people of the entire Qijiang County, drying dried fish, making smoked fish, drying and grilling fish, pickling salted fish, and doing it is in full swing, all day to night, twenty-four hours, The fireworks in Qijiang County have not been broken, and in many places even the river water has turned red because of the washing of fish.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have summoned all the devil's reconnaissance planes.

"Okay, then I'll contact Admiral Chen, Brother Wang, you'll go to the headquarters when you're done, and we'll have a good drink in the evening." Hearing Wang Yue mention the word "seafood", the corners of Li Yunlong's mouth twitched unconsciously, he has been eating sea fish for almost half a month, this is not counting, now the air in Qijiang is also full of strong fishy smell, that feeling, it is really too sour.

Even, the price of seafood is also an avalanche, at the beginning a pound of sea fish can be sold for a few cents, then a dime, and then five cents, now, a penny and two catties, or legal tender, even with the mountain city food prices have fallen a lot, because many poor people are seizing the opportunity to buy sea fish, although the taste of eating fish every day is not good, but that thing is hungry, poor people, can eat enough, what does it matter?

Watching Lao Li jump into the car and gallop towards the headquarters, the corners of Wang Yue's mouth also unconsciously put on a smile, he didn't think that the sea fish thing was a big business before, but you can't stand the large amount of this thing, when he is fine, he brought millions of fiat currency to his hands, although this money is nothing, but it can also do a lot of things, and the large-scale investment of sea fish in exchange for fiat currency has actually led to a slight increase in the value of fiat currency, which is definitely an unexpected joy.

The value of the fiat currency is declining, who is the loss, it will definitely not be the dignitaries, it can only be the poor people, and it is the poor people at the bottom, who can take advantage of the opportunity to be trapped in the Gulf of Aden to help stabilize the value of the fiat currency, Wang Yue naturally does not mind doing it, as for whether it will affect the fishery production near the Gulf of Aden in 2023, in fact, there is no need to worry at all, even if there is no Wang Yue, the fishery resources in the Gulf of Aden will be poached by foreigners, anyway, it is not the turn of local residents.

Otherwise, why do you think the Gulf of Aden is so poor? In the country of those few people, if you engage in marine fishing, not to mention being rich and expensive, it is no problem to have a worry-free situation with food and clothing. Civil war? There are many countries with civil wars, but which one is simply impoverished because of civil war?

As for whether anyone will explore how these seafood entered the inland, Wang Yue doesn't care anymore, and it will be a matter of time before someone finds out that something is wrong if he continues to support the anti-Japanese war here.

Some people died, but not completely......
