Chapter 707: Bomb Dropping
After completing the first basic test, the most important stage is the live-fire exercise, which is the little girl's favorite and most anticipated part.
Yuan Fang controlled the fog balloon to turn around, came to the edge of the exercise range between the base mountain and the barracks, and moved forward at a speed of about 50 kilometers per hour.
Yuan Fang had a slight fear of heights, so he had the courage to look down and said: "The altitude is about 1,200 meters (all based on visual inspection and the reference of the base mountain), and it is one thousand meters away from the target, ready to drop bombs." ”
Sang Rou, Jieyue, Little Girl and Xia Yi each stood up with a thin clay pot filled with fire oil and broken iron nails, the maintenance workers sat with a blowtorch above their heads and acted as torches among the four women, Yuan Fang visually measured the distance to predict the parabola of the incendiary bomb, and with an order, Sang Rou and the others lit the oilcloth of the incendiary bomb filling mouth, threw it to the ground, and then looked down at the fence railing.
Boom, boom, boom, three loud bangs, sonic shocks, incendiary bombs burst into three brilliant fireballs on the ground, soil foam flew, iron filings splashed everywhere, a heat wave rose into the air, and the fog balloons seemed to shake with it.
Why did four people drop bombs and only three explode? That's because there was an incendiary clay pot that failed to burst and burn at the first time, it was a stink bomb, and there was no way, there was no firing pin, no gunpowder, and the oil and clay pot were worse than land mines, and the one-quarter failure rate was still acceptable.
What Yuan Fang couldn't accept was that although the incendiary bomb exploded, the effect was quite good, but the impact point of the bomb was hundreds of meters away from the target.
The little girl pouted and said, "Brother-in-law, I didn't hit, it was too far away, I obviously lost it because I took aim." ”
Yuan Fang's old face flushed: "It's not your reason, it's my prediction that is wrong." ”
As soon as Yuan Fang's words fell, several roars sounded, Xia Yi pointed to the ground in surprise and said, "Look, Sister Jingqiu, they hit the target, they are so powerful." ”
Yuan Fang looked over and saw that another target not far away was engulfed by raging flames, and a team of cavalry arrived at the fastest speed to carefully check the damage to the nearby target.
Sang Rou reminded: "Brother-in-law, it's almost time to reach the second target, this time you must hit it, otherwise it will be too embarrassing." ”
Yuan Fang smiled embarrassedly, looked at the target on the ground in front of him, and felt that it was almost time to order the bomb to be dropped again, with a few explosions, the fire splashed everywhere, Yuan Fang wanted to cry without tears, this time, he missed again.
Yuan Fang didn't believe in evil, continued to try, and after failing five times in a row, he looked at Lin Mengsheng and the others next to him.
Lin Mengsheng was already close to the target on the ground, and Yuan Fang found that Yu Jingqiu and the others did not throw the bomb indiscriminately from their side, but stood at the back of the hanging basket in a unified manner, under the unified command of Ye Qingru, and after giving an order, the ignited incendiary bomb was stretched out of the hanging basket, and then let go and let the incendiary bomb fall in free fall, instead of throwing it like Sang Rou and them.
Yuan Fang's eyes lit up, and he instructed Sang Rou and them to do the same, and the result was indeed much stronger than before, but he still didn't hit the target, Yuan Fang gave up completely: "Which of you has a better prediction ability, come to command, I can't do it in this regard." ”
Next, a few girls tried to flip around, and their prediction ability was stronger than Yuan Fang's, and they could hit five or six times out of ten, and the most outstanding one was Ye Qingru, the bomb she commanded, only two times out of ten failed to hit, and the success rate was quite high, don't forget, this is the first actual battle, she has never been in contact with these before, it is unimaginable to have such a result, talent, this is talent.
This thing is actually the same as an archer, if you want to shoot at a distant target, there are many factors to consider, such as the influence of wind, such as the angle of the arrow, such as temperature, humidity and other factors The same is true for bombing, without advanced instruments to calculate positioning, then it can only be based on feeling, Ye Qingru feels very good in this regard, and it can even be said to be close to perfection.
In the next hour, Yuan Fang flew back and forth in the shooting range several times in the fog balloon, until he threw out the incendiary bombs he carried, and then returned to the base with the unfinished little girl.
Landing is different and taking off, the difficulty is greater, first of all, we must slow down in advance, stabilize the fog balloon as much as possible, and slowly descend after gradually discharging the fog in the airbag, this process is simple to say, but it is quite tricky to do, Yuan Fang and Lin Menghan tossed for a long time before they landed safely.
Walking out of the hanging basket, the feeling of being down-to-earth was extremely steady, and Wang Jinbao hurriedly ran over with people to cover the trembling crowd with thick stalls and send warm water.
The cold wind for two hours was so cold that Yuan Fang couldn't walk, and was helped into the lounge not far away.
Yuan Fang, Lin Mengsheng, plus Sang Rou and the eight of them and two maintenance workers, a total of twelve people, a lot of them were helped into the lounge, there was no warm charcoal stove here, and the temperature was not much higher than outside, but this was already very good.
At this time, you can't bake the fire or soak in hot water, otherwise there will be chilblains or more serious consequences, Yuan Fang, as a doctor, still understands these common senses, and instructed everyone to help rub their hands and feet in pairs to promote blood circulation, so that the body temperature will naturally and gradually rise. After tossing for a while, everyone finally warmed up, and at this time, Yuan Fang asked people to send the stove in and gradually raise the indoor temperature.
After Wang Jinbao counted all the data, he pushed the door in, and when he saw Yuan Fang, they were still trembling, and said with a smile: "Lord Yuan, Lin Dashao, generals, I have ordered someone to prepare hot water, why don't you go take a hot bath?" ”
The little girl's teeth kept chattering, and she looked at Yuan Fang and said, "Sister, brother-in-law." ”
Yuan Fang waved his hand decisively and said: "No, it hasn't completely recovered yet, soaking in hot water will hurt the body, so let's wait." Steward Wang, you better get some warm water, drink more water to warm up your body, preferably ginger soup. ”
The little girl added, "Put some more brown sugar." ”
Wang Jinbao immediately ordered people to do so, and then took the recorded data and handed it to Yuan Fang to look at, but Yuan Fang's hand was not very obedient, so Wang Jinbao had to read a group of data to everyone in person.
Lin Mengsheng rubbed his hands while listening, his face couldn't hide the excitement and satisfaction, he didn't know what these data represented, he only knew that this test was very successful, and the new generation of fog balloons was much stronger than the previous small fight.
Yuan Fang was not as optimistic as Lin Mengsheng, frowning and comparing the measurement and calculation units of the two worlds, frowning and muttering: "The maximum speed is almost sixty kilometers per hour, the speed is okay, but it is not very stable, the three-level wind, the speed of driving against the wind is only twenty kilometers per hour, and the power is still insufficient." ”
