"They're there!" The lookout standing on the perimeter railing of the control tower shouted loudly, and pointed in the direction in which the target had been found.

"Well, it's them, very punctual." Major Thierry raised his wrist to look at the time, then nodded to his subordinates. This is the normal performance of a professional army, where is it like the group of masters of the colonial air force, in the past flight transfer plan, which time they did not miss it.

Hoa Lok Air Base (also translated as Ho Lok or Ho Lok) is the only airfield in the Tokyo area of Vietnam built solely for military purposes, and was originally tasked with securing the airspace from Tokyo to Haiphong. But in fact, because the former governor was a peaceful liberal, the air force of French Indochina was constantly weakened, and in the end, the air force stationed at this airport was only three Dewatina 510s and two old Newports, and often could not be lifted into the air due to lack of parts.

In Jean. Before Degu arrived, the French Indochina authorities had to rely on a pile of broken copper and iron and old and weak soldiers to protect their airspace, and it is no wonder that the former governor Carut was discouraged and made the decision to compromise with the Japanese army. However, the situation is very different now, with Germany behind the back, the French side is much stronger. Especially after the bloody battle of Tongdeng, the activities of the Japanese on the border during this period were obviously a lot more restrained, the original garrisons in the north of French Indochina finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the continuous reinforcements from the south gave them back their confidence, looking at the arrogant faces of the French defenders on duty on the border now, we know that now the French have regained their pride in front of the Japanese.

When French engineers built the air base, they planned it according to the standards of large European military airfields, in order to be able to take off and land large transport aircraft. Not satisfied with the construction of a rammed earth runway 2,200 meters long, and at the same time a taxiway of the same length on one side of the runway, and an apron large enough to accommodate the next flight group at the same time, the French finally built an alternative landing runway at an angle of 60 degrees to the main runway on the side of the airport. As a result, in such a huge airport. Only five old planes were pitifully parked, exposing the essence of the French Indochina garrison here.

"Black Hawk, this is Violet, we see you, please land on Runway 1, over." The controller pressed the radio signal button and began to guide the German squadron to land.

This light rain is not much of a problem for experienced pilots. After confirming the location of the runway, the German fighter squadron began to form a column and entered the four-sided landing route around the runway. Immediately one after the other landed on the wet runway. Because of the special climatic conditions here in Vietnam, the rainy season is very long, and this was taken into account when the airport was built, and the runway was very solid by rolling and ramming, not only the ordinary rainwater is difficult to penetrate, but even weeds can not grow a single on weekdays, which can ensure that the airport can be used normally in the long rainy season.

Heavily armed FW190. Whistling low over the conning tower, this was the first time the French had seen such an advanced fighter. Everyone present was amazed by this masterpiece of German aviation. Major Spojou, as the commander of the squadron, was the first to land in the formation according to the German custom when landing at an unfamiliar airfield, one to test the condition of the runway, and also to make a demonstration for his subordinates.

The Air Force Major skillfully piloted her mighty war machine and landed on the runway as softly as a feather. The landing gear landed at three points at the same time, showing the driver's solid skills. When the fighter with the bevel mark of the captain on the fuselage slowly slid into the tarmac, Major Thierry, who had already arrived there to greet him, rushed up with his adjutant and a few French ground crew.

Grabbing the hatch latch and pushing the hatch back hard, Major Sporu stood up from the cockpit and flipped out of the cabin with great agility. Stretching out his legs lightly, he stepped on the fuselage and jumped onto the tarmac.

"Welcome, welcome, I'm Major Thierry, the commander of the base." Thierry stepped forward with a smile on his face, spreading his hands to give the German pilot a warm hug, but then he was really startled by what he saw.

I saw that the German pilot took off his black flight cap, revealing a beautiful and delicate face, although he had short blond hair like a boy, but this face could not be a man no matter how he looked at it. The French major's outstretched arms froze in the air, with an embarrassed expression, the gender of the other party is unknown at the moment, if he hugs it, will he be killed on the spot.

"Major Spojou, Commander of the Luftwaffe Task Force in Asia." This kind of behavior towards the major has long been uncommon, and he smiled and stretched out his hand to the other party.

Listening to the voice, it was more certain that the German flight captain was indeed a woman, and Thierry quickly withdrew his arms and held the other party's outstretched hand. This is the first time in his life that he has encountered this kind of thing, and Thierry doesn't know what attitude to use to communicate with the other party at this time.

The French army was a completely male society, and the favorite slogan was that women walked away from the war, and there was not a single woman from top to bottom, except for the nurses in the military hospital. When flying became fashionable, there were several deviant female pilots in France, but they were all performing in the folk arena, and I had not heard of anyone entering the army. But the person in front of him was not only a woman, but also an officer, and what surprised Thierry even more was that the other party was of the same rank as herself. Thinking of this, the old colonel couldn't help but feel a little sad, he had mixed up for most of his life, and the result was not as fast as a young girl.

"Major Thierry, please wait a moment, I still have some luggage on the plane." Sbojou said to Thierry.

"No problem, Major, what we have is time." Thierry finished speaking and winked at the adjutant who was holding an umbrella for him.

"Oh?" The other man tilted his head and winked at him.

"Umbrella!" Thierry gritted his teeth and whispered.

"Oh!" Second Lieutenant Simon nodded vigorously in a sudden realization, and then handed the umbrella he was holding to the German major.

"Oh, thank you very much." Shi Boru was not pretentious, she nodded directly to Simon in thanks, and then walked to her landline with an umbrella.

"My God." Thierry raised his face and sighed at the raindrops, what had he done to find such a fool to be his lieutenant. Feeling bitter in the rain, Major Thierry walked over to the parked car, pulled out another umbrella from the car and held it up.

As the German fighters landed one after another, the tarmac soon became busy, groups of ground crews towed German fighters, and arranged them neatly around the tarmac, and the field echoed with various French orders, and the eyes were full of French ground crews wearing raincoats.

"After a while, we'll tow the plane to the hangar and park it. We have five large hangars, enough for all your aircraft. Major Thierry was trying his best to adjust his mentality, and he decided to treat the other party as an officer of the same rank first, and as for the rest, it would be after contact. In any case, these Germans will have to stay at this base for a long time, and there will be time to find an appropriate and appropriate way to deal with it.

"For the time being, we can only do this, because the ground crew of the task force has to carry a large number of equipment and supplies, so they can only walk by road, and they will arrive in about two days after tomorrow, and the repair and maintenance work will not start until they arrive." Shi Boru replied.

"Before they arrive, we can do some refueling and recharging and stuff like that." Major Thierry said.

"That's great, if something happens, we'll be on the move, you've thought about it, Major Thierry." Spojou appreciated the French major's proposal.

The German pilots were now assembled at the side of the taxiway, and when they were done, the administrative adjutant of the brigade trotted up to Sboru and saluted her.

"The first squadron is assembled, and this time the landing went smoothly, sir."

"Very good, everyone brings their personal belongings, and the French friends will take you to your accommodation, give you two hours to tidy up and rest, and then gather in the conference room at the base in two hours for today's flight summary." Shi Boru's face was serious, and he ordered loudly.

"This is Second Lieutenant Simon, and he'll take you to the resting room." Thierry pushed Simon in front of the German adjutant.

"Yes, sir." The adjutant of administration glanced at the French lieutenant, then gave a military salute to Spojou, and immediately turned around and ran back to the queue after receiving the salute.

"The Luftwaffe was really well trained. So, Major Spojou, are you going to sit in my office or to rest at your lodgings, we have arranged an officer's suite for you and your adjutants. Thierry asked earnestly.

"It's better to finish the official business first, I have brought a letter from Major General Duval of the French Indochina Air Force, and I need you to sign for it." Shi Boru replied.

"Then please go this way, the office is far away, you need to take a car there, Major Spojou." Thierry made an inviting gesture sideways, then walked to the car with an umbrella in hand.

Sporu straightened his military hat on his head, picked up his luggage with an umbrella in one hand and the other, turned his face to look at the group of fighters under the rain, and then strode away with Major Thierry. (To be continued.) )
