"!" Gu Zhenlong sneered, "There are not a hundred boats on this river, but eighty, at a height of thousands of meters, is the devil sharp-eyed, and he can see at a glance who is holding a telescope in his hand?" ”

"Bring it!" Gu Zhenlong shouted again.

Adjutant Zhang Zhichang dared to disobey Gu Zhenlong's order, and handed the telescope to Gu Zhenlong with his hands and feet.

Fang Buwei sighed helplessly.

Forget it, the old man is finally in a better mood, so he won't be tough with him.

What Gu Zhenlong said is also reasonable, thousands of people on the riverbank are in full swing, and the attention of the observers on the plane has already been attracted to it, where is the time to pay attention to the situation on the river?

Gu Zhenlong held the binoculars and kept staring at the plane flying overhead and heading north.

"This is the Japanese army's Type 88 reconnaissance plane, which was built ten years ago, and it is an old-fashioned thing...... In order to observe in all directions, the number of crew members was deliberately increased and the amount of ammunition carried was reduced...... On this plane, it is estimated that there are no bombs, and at most there are two whirlwind machine guns......"

Gu Zhenlong gave Fang not for popular science.

He glanced at the people on the bank of the river, who were still staring at the direction of the plane's departure, and sighed: "It's a pity, the fort hasn't been seen yet, maybe it can be bombarded down......"

Fang Buwei raised his head and looked at the height of the plane and the speed of its flight.

In order to facilitate observation, the plane did not fly very high, up to five or six hundred meters, and flew slowly.

Not to mention using heavy artillery that needs to go to the fort, give him a small machine gun, and he will be able to bomb it down with seventy or eighty percent certainty.

The question is, no.

There are only two light machine guns on the ship to repel the bandits, and they can fight up to six or seven hundred meters, not to mention that the planes are also equipped with armor.

Don't think unless the plane can fly below three hundred meters.

Fang Buwei sighed regretfully.

"Gone!" Gu Zhenlong was so excited that he threw the telescope to Zhang Zhichang.

Fang Buwei was just about to inform the helmsman to start the boat, when he suddenly heard the sound of the plane coming from far and near.

He raised his head and was shocked to see that the reconnaissance plane had actually flown back along the Yangtze River from the direction of Changyou.

Could it be that the movement of the people on the shore summoned the plane back?

Probably not!

Along the way, there are three or four fortresses along the Yangtze River that are larger than Madang, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians stationed in Wuhu and Dangtu alone, and the scale is much larger than this.

"How did you come back?" Gu Zhenlong asked in surprise.

"I guess you summoned it!" Fang Buwei replied half-jokingly, and pushed Gu Zhenlong to the cabin, "Don't stand outside, go in first!" ”

"Pull a few eggs...... Gu Zhenlong scolded Fang Buwei as he walked, "How do you fight, the more you fight, the less courage you get......

"Don't you often say that the older you live, the less courageous you are......" Fang Buwei said with a smile.

As soon as the two men got into the hatch, the plane flew overhead.

"Yamashita, have you seen it clearly?" The Japanese squad leader asked solemnly.

"Your Excellency, I was absolutely not mistaken!" The soldier under the mountain replied, "It must be something like glass that reflects the light, not the water on the river......

Except for the pilots, including the machine gunners, they all held binoculars and stared at the river tightly.

The task assigned to them by the higher authorities this time was to observe the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and see if there were any troop carriers in formation rushing to Nanjing.

Although there are many boats on the river, all of them are civilian ships, and there are not even a few steamers, most of them are wooden boats, and it is clear whether there are any on them, so the observers on the planes are more and more coping with errands.

When he flew over Madang just now, the other observers, including the squad leader, pointed at the people who were watching the plane from the shore and laughed loudly, laughing at the fact that the man had never seen the world and must have regarded the plane as an iron bird.

Only this recruit named Yamashita is conscientiously performing the duties of an observer.

The light reflected when Gu Zhenlong moved the telescope with the plane happened to be captured by this soldier.

Who uses a telescope?

It can only be a commander in the army.

Is there really a troop carrier on the river?

The team leader was immediately alarmed and ordered the plane to return, causing all the crew to search.

After pushing Gu Zhenlong into the cabin, Fang Buwei poked out of the front hatch.

He wanted to see why the plane flew back and what he wanted to do.

The plane flew by and did nothing.

Nothing below.

There was no old man in a cotton coat as Yamashita said, nor did he see any reflections from telescopes, nor did he see anyone who looked like an officer.

Only the breeze stirred the water, the sparkling waves, and some fishermen holding on to their paddles, watching the planes in a daze.

"Yaga!" The team leader looked at the mountain with an angry face.

"Your Excellency, I swear to the Emperor that I am absolutely not lying......" Yamashita said through gritted teeth.

The squad leader stared at his subordinates coldly, and it wasn't until the voice of the pilot officer asking for instructions came that he looked away.

"Your Excellency, please give orders!" The pilot didn't know where to go.

"Reduce the altitude and speed of the flight, and search one last time!" The team leader said coldly.

"Your Excellency, if there is a troop carrier underneath, it must be equipped with heavy firepower, and it is very dangerous to reduce altitude and speed......," the pilot warned.

"Fool, don't you see what boats are on the river? What kind of cannon can be fired on such a ship? The team leader scoffed.

The pilot suddenly realized, and his face was ashamed.

Needless to say, wooden boats, not even a few small steamers.

Because the hull of the ship is too light, it has been shaking with the river, not to mention the inaccurate cannonball, and the recoil when firing the cannon is likely to shake the middle of the ship and roll over, or even fall apart.

In fact, the squad leader asked the pilot to reduce the altitude and speed, also to lure the snake out of the hole.

If some cannon is pulled out, or someone shoots at it, it proves that Yamashita is not lying.

The squad leader also believes that Yamashita will deliberately tell this kind of lie that does not benefit him in the slightest.

Fang Buwei saw that after the plane flew more than two kilometers, it made a big circle and turned back again.

Seeing the plane flying lower and lower, Fang Buwei frowned fiercely.

What are these Japanese looking for?

"Binoculars!" Fang Buwei yelled fiercely.

No matter how good his eyes were, he couldn't measure the altitude of the plane, so he had to use the ruler of a telescope.

Zhang Zhichang was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Fang Buwei snatched the bag in his hand.

Fang Buwei opened the mirror cover, quickly poked his head out, and glanced at the plane twice.

The Japanese reconnaissance plane was obviously searching for something on the river, but Fang Buwei did not dare to look more, and after seeing the ruler clearly, he quickly put down the telescope.

The flight altitude is only a little more than 200 meters, and the speed is even slower, less than 20 meters per second.

Fang Buwei's face changed, and he yelled fiercely: "Lian Zhiqi, be on alert ......"
