There was a burst of laughter, and Lin Wei and Qian Dajun's hearts were a lot more relaxed.

Although Fang Buwei had a smile on his face, he was not at ease at all.

If you don't fly to Wuhan and land on the ground, who dares to say that there is no risk?

Fang Bu's plan for this time can be summed up in four words: taking advantage of the gap.

Quietly go back to the village, don't shoot!

To put it bluntly, it is to create chaos, and then obediently take advantage of loopholes, carry out tricks to hide the world, and send the chairman back to Wuhan before the Japanese discover the truth.

Therefore, so as not to be discovered by the Japanese army, there must not be many fighters flying to Wuhan in the chaos.

Under this premise, flying fast has become secondary.

Because it flies fast, it can't sit a few people at all.

Whether it is the American-made Hawker 2, Boeing 281, which is equipped with the fastest flight speed of the national army, or the I-16 of the Soviet Volunteer Corps, it can only sit for two people at most.

Fang Buwei can't just send a pilot and run away with the chairman, right?

What are you kidding, it's a night flight, and there's no searchlight source.

There must be a co-pilot, that is, a communicator.

It is also impossible to hang the chairman on the wing.

In order to settle for the next best thing, they had to get rid of the only two remaining German-made Hangkel bombers.

The six-seater aircraft, in addition to the main and co-pilot, a machine gunner, can also seat three people.

Two planes are six, the chairman and his wife, plus Qian Dajun, Lin Wei, Li Tiehan, Wang Shihe, just right.

This also requires four people other than the chairman and Mrs. Song to act as bombardiers and sub-machine gunners.

Flying slowly is the biggest disadvantage of this aircraft, so once it is discovered by Japanese land fighters, it basically can't run away.

Therefore, Fang Buwei reminded Qian Dayun, Lin Wei and others in the form of a half-joke that it is better to parachute if the situation is not right than to be shot down and blown to pieces.

This is also the method that Fang Buwei and Qian Dajun, Lin Wei and others racked their brains, thought of all the methods they could think of, and adopted the safest and most likely to succeed.

I hope that these two classic planes will not go wrong and can fly to Wuhan safely.

Fang Buwei exhaled heavily, took turns in a wheelchair, and walked to the window.

It was about 12 o'clock, the moon had almost set, and in order not to be discovered by Japanese planes, the airport was not even equipped with lights.

On the edge of the runway ready to take off, Qian Dajun arranged guidance personnel in sections, each with a flashlight, so that the pilot could judge when to pull up and when to take off.

The sky was very dark, and even if Fang was not oversighted, he could only see the general outline of the two planes hundreds of meters away.

The German-made Kinscher 111A0 fighter, out of print.

Because the fuselage was too heavy, the power was insufficient, and the speed was too slow, it was easily a target for enemy aircraft and anti-aircraft guns, so it was rejected by the Luftwaffe.

Only eight were built, and in three or five years, they were bought by the Guangdong warlord Chen Jitang.

In the summer of 36, the Liangguang Incident occurred, and the entire Guangdong Air Force was rebelled by Ma Chunfeng, and all six Xiangsher planes and pilots defected to the central government.

Because there are no parts, it can only be divided into half and used as a backup machine, so only three can be used.

During the Battle of Songhu, one more plane was lost, and there were only two left.

It's also luck, if there is only one left, in addition to Wang Shihe and Li Tiehan, Lin Wei and Qian Dajun, one of them will have to stay.

The chairman and Mrs. Song had already boarded a plane, accompanied by Li Tiehan, who by the way acted as a deputy machine gunner.

Lin Wei, Li Tiehan, and Wang Shihe will take another one.

When necessary, they will launch a suicide attack to create a chance for the previous one to escape.

Fang does not pray secretly, it is better not to come at this moment.

Time passed slowly in anxiety and restlessness.

It has been more than half an hour since the Meiling took off, but there has been no news yet.

However, the First Army of Pukou had already sent three telegrams in a row, reporting the battle situation immediately.

The number of Japanese Marine planes shot down by the First Army has risen to eleven,

All the planes of both the enemy and the enemy had already flown out of Pukou, and the anti-aircraft guns of the First Army were out of action.

But the strange thing is that according to the original plan, when it arrives in Chuxian, it will turn south and fly to the Meiling in Hexian, but it has not yet arrived.

Qian Dajun and Lin Wei were faintly anxious, but Fang Buwei became more and more confident.

Just because there's no news doesn't mean it's bad news.

The reason why the Meiling has not been shot down is either that the Japanese have not caught up, or that the Meiling has not yet flown into the ambush circle of the Japanese army.

Of course, unexpected situations can happen.

For example, the Meiling happened to get through the gap in the ambush circle and escaped the pursuit of Japanese marines.

The odds are small, but it's not absolutely impossible.

That's the best!

It is more meaningful for the Japanese to think that the chairman of the committee has arrived safely in Wuhan than to think that the chairman of the committee is dead.

The antiaircraft artillery units in Wuhan were not vegetarians, and the Japanese planes were not conjured up with a single breath.

Fang Buwei was thinking about various possibilities, and there was a sudden reaction on the radio.

"Lai'an call...... Ten minutes ago, a fierce air battle broke out in the area of Beibaoshan, north of Lai'an County, and more than a dozen planes crashed...... One minute before the power was generated, all the fighters had turned back in the direction of Nanjing......" the receiver quickly read the message.

"How did you get to Lai'an?" Qian Dajun left the rest of the map.

It was said that the most that would fly to Chuxian turned south, and the Meiling was not in the established position, and it flew hundreds of kilometers more.

"No wonder it's been more than half an hour, and I haven't flown to He County, it turns out that the Meiling is not facing south, but north!" Lin Wei muttered.

Qian Dajun's face turned cold: "People who are greedy for life and afraid of death ......"

"I guess I'm disoriented!" Fang Buwei replied, and sighed heavily.

From Chuxian County to He County, just the fires used to guide the route, Fang Buwei arranged seven or eight places, almost one ten kilometers away, how could he be lost?

Eighty percent of the pilots were unwilling to die, moved other thoughts, and did not fly south, but to the north.

But the purpose was also achieved, and Fang didn't want to be blamed for dying, so he didn't say it.

What kind of characters are Qian Dajun and Lin Wei, how could they not have imagined?

But they didn't think that they had already defined the two pilots, so they didn't want to pursue it.

"Director, give the order!" Fang Buwei said again.

The next step was to have the two Soviet Volunteer Flying Brigades immediately take to the air to intercept the Japanese returning land fighters, and to make a posture of breaking the net and dying together, so as to drive the Japanese fighters within the range of the antiaircraft artillery of the First Army and the 74th Army.

Fang Buwei not only wanted to send the chairman out safely, but also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Japanese Air Force.

It's all counted, and only thirteen fights have been laid so far, which is too little!
