New World War II Eagle Strikes the Sky

Chapter 2, Crossing Scissors

Afterwards, Dr. Kaxiu and the female nurse discovered that the pilot Ron's sanity gradually began to recover, although he still often couldn't remember some things, and his English sometimes seemed weird (if he was not careful, he would take the lead. Some new vocabulary), but the doctor thinks these phenomena are completely understandable-who let his head touch when he landed?

As a fan of World War II flying games, Gao Tianxiang is fairly familiar with the history of the Pacific War.He knew that the Japanese army's attack on the Philippines was very successful in history. Relying on undeclared war raids, Japan destroyed most of the US air force in the Philippines.Then the U.S. military retreated steadily, and the last part of the U.S. military (including MacArthur) retreated to Australia, and some of them were forced to surrender to the Japanese army before they had time to retreat, and then came the tragic death of Bataan.

But Gao Tianxiang doesn't have to worry about Bataan's death, let alone the Japanese concentration camps thereafter.He is a pilot, so he must be included in the retreat. Of course, the prerequisite is that he cannot die in battle before retreating.To say that Ron's body is really first-class, and the injury is not serious. It's just a 7.7 bullet obliquely inserted in the abdomen, and he lost a lot of blood. After a week, he is almost healed.He's reasonably well in the hospital, although he's heading back to the airport tomorrow.The only problem is that there are too many wounded soldiers in the hospital, and more and more, Lucia—that is, the green-eyed nurse is so busy that the romance between the wounded soldier and the beautiful female nurse never has time to unfold.Not only is there no time for performances, there is no time for rehearsals.This afternoon, the female nurse took the initiative to come to Gao Tianxiang, which made him very proud.But who knew that she actually wanted him to do a favor (he's almost fine anyway)—to hold down a guy, Kaxiu was operating on him, but there was no anesthesia.

It was almost evening after the help, and Lucia personally changed Gao Tianxiang's dressing, which was covered in sweat.Gao Tianxiang took off his shirt and sat on a high stool, while she squatted down and gently daubed his wound with a cotton swab dipped in iodine.The sting of iodine applied to the wound made Gao Tianxiang grin his teeth.

"Does it hurt, but it can't be helped, you have to bear with it, this is the tropics, it will be troublesome if you get infected." Lucia didn't even lift her head, and continued to wipe him with iodine, whispering.

"No...it doesn't hurt..." How can the elders be afraid of pain, "itch, you make it too itchy, I'm afraid of itchy..."

Lucia still didn't look up, she just lowered her head to wrap gauze on his wound, and her soft fingers touched him from time to time, making his heart really itch.He lowered his head, and saw that under the slanting light of the setting sun, Lucia's long flaxen hair under the white nurse's cap exuded a seductive golden-red halo.Gao Tianxiang stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the mysterious light.

"Hey, what are you doing!" Lucia stood up, her little face tensed, and she looked down at Gao Tianxiang condescendingly, her eyes seemed to be full of anger.

"I... I didn't do anything," Gao Tianxiang was still very embarrassed after being caught for hooliganism, "I see your hat is crooked, I think..."

"Really?" Lucia held the hat with her hand, "It seems to be a little more crooked than before." She stared sternly into Gao Tianxiang's eyes, until Gao Tianxiang felt that she seemed to have shrunk in half, and she suddenly showed such a smile. The smiling face that reappears as bright as the sun after the rainstorm. "Although you made it more crooked, I still want to thank you."

After speaking, she squatted down and continued to bandage him.

At this time, Dr. Kaxiu's voice came from outside the window, "Lucia, have you seen my hemostat?"

"Doctor Kaxiu is looking for me. I just finished my job and I have to go." Lucia stood up and walked outside.When she got to the door, she suddenly turned her head around again, with a mysterious smile that seemed both proud and shy.

"You made my hat crooked, why didn't you straighten it for me just now?"

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly, turned around and ran out like a proud little deer, leaving the stunned Gao Tianxiang in the ward.Gao Tianxiang didn't sleep well that night.

Early the next morning, Captain Tony drove to pick up Gao Tianxiang.When he was about to get in the car, Gao Tianxiang saw Lucia was drying the bandages. He really wanted to ask her if we would see each other again, but he didn't say anything. He just watched her busy silently, watching the rising sun Her clean white nurse uniform and her flaxen long hair fluttering in the morning wind were covered with a layer of brilliant gold, and then she got into the car without saying a word.When the car was moving, he saw her turn her head, smiled at him, and waved.

"Ron, are your injuries all healed?" Captain Tony asked while driving.

"It's almost fine, but it will take another week to remove the stitches, but I have to make room for the new wounded."

"You may not be able to remove the stitches here, and we may be retreating soon."

This did not exceed Gao Tianxiang's expectation, he still didn't speak, his mind was still full of the little hand waving in the morning breeze and the rising sun.

"Will they retreat to Australia too?"

"They're going to Australia too." The captain stepped on the brake suddenly, and Gao Tianxiang's head almost hit the windshield. "Who told you we were going to Australia?"

"Guess."

"Guess what?"

"Where can we go but Australia? Could it be California?"

"Yes, although there is no official announcement, everyone knows." The captain restarted the car, "But Ron, there is one more thing I want to tell you," the captain seemed to hesitate, "You know what we have left There are not many pilots left, you, you may have to take your wounds to the sky."

Now Navy ships are busy loading more people on board and taking them to Australia.The navy doesn't have much escort power now, but fortunately Japan seems to be busy occupying more islands, and doesn't seem to care much about sending warships to cut off their retreat, but only sends some planes to harass them from time to time.The retreat was able to continue, but the pilots in charge of air defense were almost collapsed.In the past few days, Zero War has become an out-and-out nightmare.There are still six P40 aircraft left in the base, but there are only four alive pilots.Fortunately, the airport itself was still outside the combat radius of the Japanese aircraft, so it was not directly hit.

"Four days ago, Ronnie, Byrd, and Kenyon didn't come back, neither did Keynes, Bart, and Gregor yesterday, plus the previous losses, now our fighter pilots are only Spike, I—I can fly left-handed, plus you, uh, and Carreras."

"Carreras?" Gao Tianxiang still had some impressions of this man from Ron's remaining memory, "Didn't he just leave the flight school? It's too early to let him go to the sky."

"Yes, but we have no one left."

"In the past few days, I thought of a way to deal with Zero War."

"tell me the story?"

Gao Tianxiang's method is actually not surprising. It is the so-called "Saqi cut", which was originally a tactic against zero war invented by John Smiththach, a major of the US Navy, during the Battle of Midway Island.In the world of virtual air combat, this set of tactics can be said to be well known.Since the relatively clumsy f4f relies on this tactic, it can achieve an exchange ratio comparable to Zero War.Then p40 can also use this trick to deal with Zero War...

At 04:30 in the morning, the sky at the airport was still full of stars, which indicated that the next day would be good weather again.If it was still an era of peace, such weather would satisfy the pilots and sailors, but now, such weather only means that they will be attacked by Japanese aircraft after dawn. Ri's own zero battle and one-style land attack will never be idle in such ideal weather.

Gao Tianxiang is already sitting in the cockpit of the p40. Half an hour later, before the sun comes out, a group of transport ships will leave the port of the Philippines to send some people to Australia.But those guys in the navy (or those in the army) may not be able to set off on time for one reason or another, so when the sun rises, they will be exposed to the sun of the Japanese aircraft in the open sea under attack.In order to hold up an umbrella for them to protect them from the rain of bullets, Gao Tianxiang and the others must take off now.

The four P40s climbed slowly in the dark night sky, the cockpit was completely dark, except for the dull roar of the engines, there was no sound.When the plane climbed to an altitude of 3000 meters, the first ray of sunlight entered Gao Tianxiang's cockpit. He turned his head and looked around, and saw that the vast sea was still sleeping in darkness, but the other three fighters But they were all dyed red by the rays of the sun.Thinking about it, in the eyes of those people below, my four p40s must be like four bright morning stars.

At this time, the voice of the old lieutenant colonel came from the earphones: "Boys, the John's bad boys are late for school again today. Repeat, they are late again." "John's bad boys" refers to the transport fleet .This news means that the fleet will not be able to open the combat range of the Japanese aircraft before dawn, which also means that Gao Tianxiang and the others may have to fight a battle of great disparity with the Japanese themselves.

The sun rose higher and higher, and the sea gradually appeared in front of Gao Tianxiang's eyes. Looking down, a thin layer of white mist floated on the blue sea. The sea was very calm, except for a few emerald green There is nothing left of the emerald island.

"This is not a good thing. They haven't come here yet, and they will definitely be caught by Japan." According to the memory left by Ron, his last air battle took place here—here already in Japan within range of the aircraft.

Carreras, who was flying a little to the left, suddenly shook his wings. What did he find?This half-grown child's skills are still very average (even Ron, who looks stinky in the eyes of Gao Tianxiang), but his eyes are surprisingly good.Looking in the direction he indicated, the fleet finally appeared between the sea and the sky.

Captain Tony took Spike and flew directly towards the fleet, while Gao Tianxiang took Carreras to the east and began to climb continuously.

"Tony, pay attention to your one o'clock direction!" After 2 minutes, Carreras was the first to break the radio silence.According to the prior agreement, the radio can only be used when an enemy plane is found.

Gao Tianxiang saw a total of 8 incoming enemy planes, which were divided into two fleets. The higher planes were smaller, obviously zero combat, and the other group should be a type of land attack.

Captain Tony's crew went up to meet it first, and the four Zero Fighters immediately dropped the bomber and rushed towards Tony's P40. The p40 fleet turned a corner and seemed to want to avoid the zero battle.

"Meiying Guishu is really cowardly. They don't dare to compete with the Yamato warriors at all. They want to run away when they meet!" In the cockpit of the zero battle, Yamai Yujin thought proudly.In the past few days, those clumsy p40s, p39s, and f2s have been beaten to pieces by the brave Yamato warriors with invincible zero battles.Even he has already shot down four American planes, only one before he can be called an ace.It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer Meigui's planes, and I don't know if they were all wiped out or beaten so hard to come out.He hasn't waited for one these days.Now, the opportunity to become an ace has come, but unfortunately there are too few enemy planes, only two, he must seize this opportunity, knowing that Isamu Fujita is only one away, he must be ahead of him.

The four zero battles bit the p40 tightly and chased after it.

"It's now! Attack with me!" Gao Tianxiang first made a 180-degree roll, and then pulled the lever, and the plane flew straight towards the first type of land attack aircraft group from the direction of the sun.

The Type [-] Land Attack is a typical Japanese aircraft. It has a greater speed, range, and ammunition load than its American counterparts, but almost all of these are obtained by sacrificing defense.It will almost certainly burn into a ball of fire whenever it is hit.There are hardly any bombers in the game that are more prone to fire. (Of course, there are several more exotic ones in Germany. You don’t need to fight them. If you fly by yourself, they will burn into a ball of fire for no reason.)

In a Type [-] land attack aircraft, the captain Takeo Fukuen is giving an order: "Don't be too busy admiring the air battle, it's one-sided, it's boring! Prepare to enter the attack route and prepare for the torpedo attack!"

The huge fuselage of the first type of land attack is getting bigger and bigger in the scope, it's time!Four flames spewed out from the wings of Gao Tianxiang's p40.Gao Tianxiang gently pulled the nose of the aircraft, and used dense .50 bullets to bathe the Type [-] Lu Gong from head to toe.When Gao Tianxiang pulled up the fighter plane and climbed up, his earphones were full of Carreras' screams: "Ron, you hit it, it caught fire, it's over!"

"Follow me, we attack again!"

The p40 roared down again.

The remaining three Type [-] Land Attackers threw away their torpedoes indiscriminately and turned to dodge.

"This is really a massacre!" After igniting another one-type land attack, Gao Tianxiang was shot down 150 times in the game, shot down an enemy plane 74 times, attacked friendly planes [-] times, and was shameless [-] times. The guy who shot down the parachute, the guy who died a thousand times and came back from the dead couldn't help but sigh like this.

Now the four zero wars that woke up like a dream turned around and rushed back. Unfortunately, the ghosts are too cunning. Just now the two p40s took the zero wars and fled in a shallow dive. Now the zero wars have not only moved away from the battlefield, but also dropped to About 500 meters, now want to go back easier said than done.

When Zero Battle came back, there was only one of the four One-Type Land Attackers left, and even that one was seriously damaged.Yamai Tomohito gestured (the early zero battles did not have radios) to let two zero battles escort it back, and then took his wingmen to continue chasing the departing Gao Tianxiang crew.Today's loss has completely embarrassed the Japanese imperial army, and I am afraid that I will have to apologize if I go back. I must shoot down these two P40s, even if my plane will not be able to return due to exhaustion of fuel.

The speed of the Zero War is faster than that of the p40, and it is gradually getting closer and closer.

"It's really rare to have the opportunity to fight Zero Zhan." Gao Tianxiang thought, "In the game, Zero Zhan is a rare model. Once someone drives it, he will immediately become the favorite of all enemies."

"Separate left and right." Gao Tianxiang calmly gave Carreras an order.The two planes immediately separated to either side.

Yamai Yuhito made a gesture, and continued to bite Gao Tianxiang himself, letting wingman Mitsuo Kondo follow another enemy plane.

"He's still 500 meters away from you! 450 meters!" On the radio, Gao Tianxiang and Carreras kept reporting the position of the enemy plane following each other.In air combat, the strength of the team is the most powerful guarantee of victory!A group of rookies who know how to cooperate can easily kill the ace without team support.

"Turn to me!" With a sharp roll and a gentle pull, the two P40s began to switch from point to point, and the two Zero Fighters followed closely behind.

"Want to turn a corner to get rid of me? Dreaming! As long as you get closer, I will shoot down one!" Kondo Mitsuo stared at Carreras in front, his eyes widened, full of bloodthirsty light.At this moment, he saw another P40 rushing straight from the opposite direction, and the four tongues of flames were flickering under the wings...

"Shooting at a large oblique angle, this is my strong point." Looking at the zero battle that was turning into an orange fireball, Gao Tianxiang felt as if he had returned to the game world.

"Damn! Cunning Yankee!" Blood rushed to Yuhito Yamai's head, and the Yankee played him again, knocking out his wingman right under his nose, and letting him rise from the height of his ego. All of a sudden fell down.This huge gap made him almost lose his mind, "I must kill this beautiful ghost!"

Yamai Yuhito had already put the p40 into the halo, and he felt that as long as he got closer to 50 meters, he would definitely be able to shoot down the opponent.And the distance of 50 meters is an instant in air combat.At this moment, the P40 suddenly made a 90-degree roll to the right, followed by a sharp turn.

It's nothing if it's just a sharp turn. In World War II, no matter whether it was a stable hover or an instant hover, except for Ri's own ki43, there was no other aircraft that could compare with the Zero War.The extremely low wing load brings excellent low-speed hovering performance to Zero War, but at the same time it also makes Zero War's roll seem sluggish.Coupled with the over-light fuselage, it is difficult for it to overcome the torque of the propeller, and the speed of Zero War to roll to the right is terribly slow.The roll is the beginning of almost all maneuvers except the somersault.

This urgent transfer Gao Tianxiang temporarily escaped from the guns of Zero War, but Yuhito Yamai believed that in less than 3 seconds, he would be able to bite his opponent again and beat him to pieces with a string of 20mm shells .What's more, his opponent made a mistake-he didn't immediately turn to the dive.Compared with the lightweight Zero Fighter, most American aircraft are strong and clumsy. The heavy weight allows them to accelerate faster during the dive, and the strong structure allows them to withstand greater wind pressure and achieve greater speed.Zero War 21 can dive to a speed of about 580 kilometers at most. At this time, it is already in danger of disintegrating, and it can hardly make any movements. However, P40 can easily dive to a speed of more than 700 kilometers, and rely on this speed to quickly Get out of danger.

It's not that Gao Tianxiang doesn't know this, but he also knows that Carreras has just completed a jump and is about to dive towards the enemy plane. All of his attention was focused on himself, creating conditions for Carreras' attack.

"Flopping", this is the sound made by the 7.7mm machine gun bullets on the Zero War hitting the p40. If this is in the game, this sound will make Gao Tianxiang, who has died a thousand times, feel safer.There are two 20mm guns and two 7.7mm machine guns in the Zero War, the power of the latter is almost negligible in air combat. Ri himself installed it because the shells of the 20 guns were too few (60 rounds per door), and he wanted to use 7.7 tracer ammunition to help the 20 guns aim.It is a pity that the ri-made 20 gun has a slow initial velocity and a curved trajectory, which is obviously different from the 7.7 with a straight trajectory.In air combat, if a 7.7 bullet hits your aircraft, it almost means that the 20mm shell fired at the same time will definitely miss you.And if 7.7 is flying over your head, you need to be careful.

But this is not a game after all. Even though he knew that 7.7 was trash, Gao Tianxiang still felt that his scalp was numb and his mouth was bitter. sweat.He had to work extremely hard to restrain himself from doing a left roll + pull bar dive.It only takes a few seconds, just a few more seconds, Carreras' fighter planes will rush over to support him, and then this little Japanese is the meat on the chopping board, you can cut it however you want.But before that, he had to give the Japanese behind him hope that he could shoot him down, only in this way could he give that rookie Carreras a chance to shoot accurately.

"Damn it, I almost missed it. I'm going to hit you this time!" As several 20mm shells missed, two bloodshot eyes almost burst out of Yuhito Yamai's eye sockets. With the dangling p40, I can hardly see anything.

"It's now!" Yamai Yuhito and Carreras fired almost simultaneously.Just as several 20mm shells shot towards Gao Tianxiang, a whip made of .50 machine gun shells lashed at Shanjing's zero battle fiercely.

"Novices are not qualified to save bullets." This is Gao Tianxiang's reminder to Carreras before departure.Now Carreras faithfully followed this suggestion and held down the launch button tightly.With the continuous sweeping of the four machine guns, countless .50 bullets penetrated into the thin skin of Zero Battle.First, a large pile of fragments peeled off from Zero War, and then Yamai Yuhito saw an orange-red flame gushing out from those countless bullet holes. In a blink of an eye, Zero War has become a big fireball.But Carreras was still shooting, and with a click, Zero Zhan's fragile left wing snapped off, and then the fireball spun and fell towards the boundless sea.

"Good job! Carreras! Don't shoot anymore, save the bullets! He's finished. Let's go home!" Gao Tianxiang, who had just narrowly escaped the last two 20mm shells, called Carrera on the radio. Si gave orders.

"What the hell! Go to hell! Meet Satan! Dog Rib's little Riben... Hey, Ron, does Little Riben use chrysanthemums as a sign? Now Satan must be very happy, he can be cruel Explode that bastard's chrysanthemum ruthlessly!" Carreras, who is said to be from an old Spanish aristocratic family, was usually mild-mannered and full of foul language when excited.

"Okay, don't patronize Le, go home! Remember, look back at the 6 o'clock direction every ten seconds!"

"Yes, Second Lieutenant Carreras obeys your order."

……

"They're back, and they're all back, they're all back!" The old lieutenant colonel stood by the runway, holding his beloved teapot in his hands, his hands trembling with excitement, so that the orderly was worried that he would drop his beloved teapot. teapot.He couldn't remember how long he hadn't seen the children who played in the battle come back without a bad one.It was a truly nightmarish time: the children flew out, and shortly afterward shouts of excitement and panic could be heard on the radio, and then many of those voices fell silent.No matter how much you call them, the only answer is the noise of electricity.In the end, with any luck, some kids will come back in a plane riddled with bullet holes.And when these children got off the plane, their faces were always as pale as if they had just crawled out of the grave.And after that, as soon as these children fell asleep, they would utter fearful dreams: "Zero War! God, he is at my six o'clock!"

But this time it was different, the plane was still taxiing, and the excited boys couldn't help standing up from their seats, waving and cheering to the ground crew on both sides of the runway to welcome their triumphant return.The morning sun shone on their faces, reflecting a kind of brilliant light that the old lieutenant colonel had never seen before.The old lieutenant colonel knew that hope was shining on their faces.New tactics, new victories brought hope back!He knows that the most difficult time is over, because his boys have passed through the valley of despair, there may be more and more difficult battles ahead, there will be bloodshed, and there will be sacrifices, but, But after all, hope shines ahead.
