Chapter 675 We have a plane!
Nantianmen.
The wind was light and the clouds were clear. Although the sound of gunfire had stopped here, the soldiers of the Tiger Guards did not stop shoveling.
Fang Zhiqiu stood on a small mound of earth to the east of Nantianmen, with a look of doubt in his eyes.
Surrounded by mountains, an open space nearly one thousand meters long and two hundred meters wide was opened up.
A few days ago, he discovered that the Third Division of the Tiger Guard Army had stopped the construction and improvement of the fortifications at the South Gate of Heaven.
They started by blasting the surrounding mountains, and finally began large-scale construction and leveling.
It can be said that the entire Third Division gives people the impression of being an infrastructure maniac.
Such a large open space was built in a short period of time.
"Chief Designer, could this be an airport?" Xu Sanwu, who was standing aside, looked at the huge open space and asked with confusion.
Fang Zhiqiu was stunned and shook his head. Where did the Tiger Guards get the planes? There were only a few planes in the mountain city, and John Country would definitely not give them planes.
"The Tiger Guards' attack was based on artillery fire, absolute knowledge of the terrain, the demolition of bunkers, and then the soldiers' charge..."
"Yes." Xu Sanwu thought about it seriously and nodded in agreement. After all, they saw the attack of the Tiger Guards with their own eyes, and they also saw the map given by the Tiger Guards' General Staff. It can be said that the Japs' positions inside the Nantianmen Tunnel were clearly drawn on the map.
"So, the Tiger Guards flattened this place so that all the gunfire from the South Heavenly Gate could reach this open space. They turned this place into an empty space without any shelter! There, and there, if they built a few more bunkers, the firepower would be absolutely formidable..."
Fang Zhiqiu pointed to the place where the foundation was being laid at the edge of the open space and spoke with certainty.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Sanwu looked around. There were several bunkers on the main peak, as well as the places that had been modified by the Third Division. It was exactly the same as what Fang Zhiqiu said!
"What a talented chief engineer!" Xu Sanwu said loudly.
But at this moment, a rumbling sound was heard, and the two men's expressions changed drastically in an instant.
"The Japanese bomber!" Xu Sanwu looked around quickly, looking for cover.
The soldier in charge of guarding nearby immediately protected the two of them.
"Notify the Huben Army..." Fang Zhiqiu finished speaking.
Rows of fighter jets quickly appeared above their heads in the sky.
"It's too late..." Fang Zhiqiu's eyes fell on the soldiers of the Huben Army and his fists clenched.
Covering the sky and blocking out the sun, a huge roar was heard, like the sound of thunder, constantly coming from the sky.
The bombers were arranged in groups of three, while the fighter jets circled around them.
The appearance of this scene made Fang Zhiqiu swallow his saliva, his eyes fixed on the plane in the sky, which brought him great pressure.
But suddenly he realized something was wrong. Not only did the soldiers not dodge, but every soldier was looking at the sky with a smile on his face, and some were even cheering.
"Chief Engineer, get into the bunker quickly." Xu Sanwu called out immediately.
"Need not."
Fang Zhiqiu raised his hand to signal, changing into the appearance of the Huben Army. He did not think that the soldiers of the Huben Army were stupid.
If the soldiers were not stupid, then it means that this was not a Japanese bomber?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Fang Zhiqiu looked up at the sky again.
No bombs dropped!
"It seems... this is indeed the airport..." Fang Zhiqiu coughed lightly, then looked up and stared blankly at a bomber.
They were diving towards them, but the soldiers of the Tiger Guards did not withdraw and were still there commanding.
The plane passed by not far from them, and the strong wind blew, raising dust on the ground.
The red soil rolled up as if blood was thrown into the sky, but as the roar gradually faded, the bomber had already stopped.
A soldier wearing the uniform of the Tiger Guards got off the plane.
???
???
Fang Zhiqiu and Xu Sanwu looked at each other in a daze.
"The bombers are about to land, take cover."
This was a reminder from the Tiger Guards soldier next to him.
Fang Zhiqiu and Xu Sanwu, as if waking from a dream, obediently left the airport for a while.
The bombers circling above the airport began to land.
The nose of the plane pointed upward, the speed slowed down, touched the ground, decelerated, and stopped. The sound of the engine weakened, and the aircrew on the ground began to gather manpower to pull the plane.
The whole action is smooth and flowing, just like...
Just like professional flight crew and airplane pilots.
"Did you miss anything in the information you collected last time?" Fang Zhiqiu watched quietly from the side, his eyes somewhat obsessed.
This is a real war machine, displayed right before his eyes at such a close distance.
Plane after plane began to land at the airport.
The huge roar and gusts of wind didn't give him a chance to speak.
The entire airport was in chaos, but the landing was directed, the aircraft were pulled, the maneuvers were made, the flag signals, etc., and nothing went wrong with the landing.
Fang Zhiqiu looked at it in fascination, his face covered with dust, like a native, and he didn't care at all.
The eyes that were originally a little cloudy were now extremely bright.
"Seventeen bombers and sixteen fighter jets. The direction the planes are coming from is Tengzhong..." Fang Zhiqiu counted carefully, and at this moment his pupils suddenly dilated gradually.
He knew that there was an airport in Tengzhong, which meant that the Tengzhong Tiger Guards had also started the war.
The 4th and 5th Divisions of the Huben Army might also go to Tengzhong... Fang Zhiqiu couldn't believe it, and was truly shocked by this grand strategy.
Even if he came up with such a strategy, he might not be able to execute it so thoroughly.
The planes in front of him showed that Tengzhong had clearly won a great victory.
And judging from the way the Tiger Guards soldiers flew the plane, it was obviously not their first time.
"The Third Division of construction maniacs, the Tiger Guards who can fly planes..." Fang Zhiqiu murmured.
You have to know that just seventeen bombers require at least a hundred crew members, including pilots, bombardiers, etc.
Moreover, the unfamiliarity with takeoff and landing was not caused by the operation, but by the airport ground.
An experienced pilot is as valuable as gold anywhere, let alone here, where a pilot is worth his weight in gold.
But the Tiger Guards have pilots, which is obviously not achieved overnight, which means that Lin Tianchen also has his own plans for the air.
"Chief Engineer, can we go and touch it?" Xu Sanwu said hesitantly.
After Fang Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, he quickly headed towards the plane.
As he approached, he could vaguely see the plaster flag. The plane was emitting heat, and the residual heat kept hitting his face, making his blood begin to boil.
Fang Zhiqiu participated in the Diandian battlefield, the Pudong battle, and the defense of the mountain city.
They were bombed, cities were bombed, and it seemed to be the norm.
The sky never belonged to them, but now, the sky is gradually belonging to them.
Fang Zhiqiu placed his hand lightly on the iron lump, his expression uncontrollably excited, as he felt the residual heat on the iron sheet.
The touch in his hands made him realize that he was not dreaming or fantasizing, but that everything happening before his eyes was real.
"We have our own planes!" Fang Zhiqiu said almost gritting his teeth. Finally, he didn't have to be humble and ask the foreigners for air support.
Not to mention the foreign pilots who were still drinking afternoon tea and saying they were in training and couldn't provide support.
On the ground, if they cannot defeat the Japanese, they can fight them with their flesh and blood and their lives.
Even if he cannot win and dies on the battlefield, his death is not a pity.
But in this sky, all they could do was watch these Japanese devils fly their planes, bomb them, and then wave goodbye and fly away.
There is no way to deal with this, it is worse than killing them.
Now, they have planes. Even if they can't defeat the Japanese, they can fight back against the Japanese in the air!
It feels like looking at someone standing on a high place, and now I can stand in front of him and challenge him to a duel!
Instead of always standing below and looking up.
Now that we have an airport and planes, will the Tiger Guards continue to increase their efforts?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Fang Zhiqiu had the answer in his heart.
Definitely!!
