Chapter 292: Hurting Each Other
Xie Tian hung up the phone, his eyes swept over Li Chunxiang and Tang Hao'er, looked at Pang Yuan and said: "The devil's two plane formations attacked the Mengxian section of the Zhengtai Railway, causing a passenger-mixed train to derail, which is estimated to have been done by the 22nd Army Aviation Brigade of the devil." ”
Pang Yuan frowned and asked, "Are there any casualties?" ”
Xie Tian shook his head: "It's not clear now, I'll take a look." ”
Pang Yuan grabbed Xie Tian's arm across the table: "Don't risk taking revenge on the devil." ”
Xie Tian nodded: "I know it in my heart." ”
During this period of time, the planes of the 22nd Army Aviation Brigade of the devil were very frequent, in addition to often airdropping supplies to Niangziguan and Yangquan, from time to time they would also attack and harass the 51st Army and the 49th Army besieging Niangziguan and Yangquan, but this was the first time to take the initiative to attack the railway line.
Come to think of it, the railway line in Shanxi used to be the main transportation artery of the devil, but now it has become the transportation artery of Xie Tian, thank God can destroy the railway of the devil, why can't the devil destroy the railway of Xie Tian.
The 22nd Army Aviation Brigade of the devil stationed in Shijiazhuang was bullying Xie Tian because of the limited number of fighters available in his hands, and he did not have a few sets of radar equipment, so he could not monitor such a large area of airspace at all.
If it weren't for the 22nd Army Aviation Brigade to airdrop supplies to the remnants of Niangzi Pass, the remnants of the devils guarding Niangzi Pass would probably have been unable to hold on for a long time.
However, the 22nd Army Aviation Brigade was so flirtatious that it had already been hated by Xie Tian.
Come on, let's hurt each other.
Xie Tian stood up and looked at Tang Hao'er and said, "Hao'er, you come out with me first, and I'll tell you something." ”
Xie Tian took Tang Hao'er back to the bedroom of the two people on the third floor, Xie Tian closed the door and grabbed Tang Hao'er's arm with both hands, stared at her eyes and said in a deep voice: "Hao'er, Lao Cui is on that train." ”
"Which old Cui?" Tang Hao'er's brain short-circuited for a while, but then she came to her senses and covered her mouth in surprise.
Xie Tian nodded lightly with a dark face: "Lao Cui is no longer here, if it weren't for me calling to urge, maybe he wouldn't have taken that train." Accompany Chunxiang more for me, don't tell her yet, I'll go and see the situation. ”
Tang Hao'er's tears rolled down, and with a sigh, her body trembled slightly and fell into Xie Tian's arms.
No one will blame Xie Tian, and Tang Haoer believes that Li Chunxiang will not blame Xie Tian either.
If you want to blame, you can only blame this precarious world.
When will it be a head in the days of fighting back and forth like this?!
Xie Angel hugged Tang Hao'er, turned around and strode away, and did not go back to the study.
At Caizhuang Airport, the ground staff of the airport was busy overhauling the plane that Xie Tian drove back, and replaced the plane with machine gun wearing parts.
The only three planes of the People's Liberation Army participated in the battle too frequently, and the ground crew had gray hair when they wanted to maintain these three planes to the best condition, but fortunately, with the strong support of the comrades in the arsenal, they could barely maintain the combat state of these three planes.
Xie Tian's car drove directly into the hangar, and the ground staff saw Xie Tian get out of the car and hurriedly stood up and saluted.
Xie Tian walked over quickly with a straight face to check the status of the plane, and asked for several key data in turn.
Deng Bo happened to send ammunition over, he heard that Xie Tian was coming, so he hurriedly came out of the underground ammunition depot to the hangar, and greeted Xie Tian from a distance and walked over quickly: "Commander-in-chief, we will make a sample of the six-barreled machine gun you handed over to us for trial production, do you want to go to our arsenal to try it?" ”
Xie Tian's face finally had some relaxation, he held Deng Bo's hand and said gratefully: "Deng Bo, you are really timely rain, we will have a B-17 bomber soon, I am thinking about how to increase the firepower of the B-17, now it is great to have this rapid-fire machine gun." ”
If the Americans heard Xie Tian's words, they would probably vomit blood.
What do you mean?
You even think that the firepower of the B-17 bomber is insufficient, the B-17 bomber is equipped with a total of 13 Browning M2 heavy machine guns, and the back and belly are equipped with 12.7 mm caliber double-barreled machine guns, such a powerful firepower is already called a flying fortress Well, you even said that you want to increase the firepower of the B-17, how to enhance it, or you can install a few more howitzers.
For the Americans, the firepower of the B-17 is naturally enough, and even one or two fighters dare not easily provoke the B-17, but for thank God, the existing firepower of the B-17 is indeed somewhat unsatisfactory.
The B-17 bombing targets dispatched by the Americans were often hundreds of planes, and the planes flew in formation, and the planes could form crossfire cover between them, and even if there was no fighter escort, the B-17 bomber formation had completed several large-scale bombing missions alone.
But thank God no, thank God there is only such a B-17 (not yet in hand), if this plane goes to carry out a bombing mission, even if there are three other fighter escorts, it is also insufficient firepower, if you go to fight the devil 22 Army Aviation Group, if all the planes of the 22 Army Aviation Group take off, four planes against nearly forty aircraft, almost a 1:10 ratio, the risk of the huge B-17 being shot down is too great.
Deng Bo heard that Xie Tian was about to enhance the vitality of the big plane, and excitedly took Xie Tian's hand and was about to drag him away: "Then let's hurry up and take a look, we have tested it, the firepower of this six-barreled machine gun is too fierce, and it can penetrate the tank armor at a distance of fifty meters......
Xie Tian grabbed Deng Bo: "Deng Bo, I really don't have time today, I believe in your test, if your test meets the standard, then hurry up and produce, now the front line is stuck with the devil, if the front line troops can be equipped with a batch of this rapid-fire machine gun, it will definitely play a decisive role in suppressing on the battlefield." ”
Deng Bo was pulled by Xie Tian, knowing that Xie Tian might really not be able to get out, he felt a little regretful in his heart, and said: "Okay, I'll discuss it with Jing Hao after I go back, Jing Hao thinks that the six-barreled machine gun we built still has some defects, and it is easy to break down in actual combat, and she wants to solve these problems before putting them into mass production." ”
Xie Tian sighed lightly and looked at Deng Bo: "Deng Bo, I'll draw you a picture and you bring it to her, and she will know how to modify it." ”
When Xu Jinghao developed this rapid-fire machine gun, Xie Tian didn't give her too many points, but just reminded her that each barrel must have an independent locking mechanism, which can independently complete actions such as feeding, locking, firing, and throwing shells.
Xie Tian lay on the workbench of the hangar, drew a sketch and handed it to Deng Bo, Deng Bo took the picture, looked at it a few times, his eyes lit up, folded it up, solemnly stuffed it into his pocket, and said, "Okay, I will bring it to her." ”
Xie Tian hummed and turned to the ground crew and ordered: "Help me fill up the gas and ammunition, and then go to the ammunition depot to get a cluster bomb for me to hang up." ”
Deng Bo looked at Xie Tian and asked nervously, "Did something happen again?" ”
Xie Tian smiled bitterly and patted Deng Bo's arm: "Deng Bo, the devil plane attacked our train. It would be great if you could build me five rapid-fire machine guns in three days, we don't have enough planes and can only find a way to suppress the enemy in terms of firepower. ”
Deng Bo frowned and nodded cautiously: "Three days, I'll give you five rapid-fire machine guns." ”
