Chapter 790: Drill (II)

After getting the order, Guan Xiaoyun, who had been talking and laughing with a few female soldiers just now, had a straight face, trotted to the weapon compartment, opened the hatch, and took out four flat wooden boxes and put them down in the place where there was a circlip on the left and right of the cabin.

The lid of the box was opened, and in the rubber grooves inside, rows of incendiary bombs wrapped in shock-absorbing cloth strips and straw were lying quietly inside, and after checking that there was no damage, Guan Xiaoyun returned to his post and waited to replenish ammunition for everyone. The five balloons received the order, and the outermost two shrank inward, and soon, they became cone-shaped, and at the same time, each fog balloon was also ready for battle.

The target is a target ship prepared by the Navy in advance, which is not large in size, about the size of a medium-sized warship, and it is very simple, that is, a few ordinary planks made of improvised planks, towed by a few clippers from afar, circling the designated sea area.

Getting closer and closer to the target, Yu Jingqiu gave an order, assigned the target, the altitude was about to 800 meters, slowed down to ten knots, and slowly met the target ship.

On the sea, on the clipper that towed the target ship, a large group of sailors looked up at the sky, stared blankly at the slowly pressing behemoth, and felt unparalleled pressure, some of them had seen the bombing of the air force, and their faces were a little pale and worried, and said: "Sir, do you want to send a flag to say something?" They don't get the wrong target and blow us up, and there will be no place to cry if you want to. ”

The captain of the small boat thought about it too, and hurriedly ordered the flag soldiers to identify themselves and guide the target.

Receiving the signal, Yu Jingqiu smiled faintly, she could see it at such a close distance without guidance, and she knew very well what these guys were worried about.

Heading head-on, the speed doubled, Ye Qingru, who had the best hand feeling, stared at the target ship with his eyes, and when the two were about to overlap, he gave an order, and the head soldier lit an incendiary bomb and threw it out of the window.

Bang, bang, bang, boom, several incendiary bombs in front fell into the water, only the last one hit the bow of the target ship, the flames surged, and the target ship began to burn.

Yu Jingqiu entered the state, calmly gave the order, left the rudder, gradually accelerated to twenty knots, maintained the altitude, and followed the target.

Most of the airship missed, and the fog balloon behind readjusted the bombing time according to the airship's error, Yuqing thought about this in her heart, and ordered loudly when she felt that it was about the same: "Drop the bomb on the port side, put it." ”

Boom, boom, two muffled sounds, the two incendiary bombs all hit, the bombardier female soldiers cheered, Yuqing followed the flagship to turn, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Hand contact, the hit rate of the other four fog balloons is not very high, less than half of the appearance, everyone was not disappointed, and turned around with the flagship. Yu Jingqiu constantly adjusted the direction and speed, synchronized the airship with the target ship as much as possible, and then, several single-shot incendiary bombs were dropped one after another, and after determining the resistance and error, he kept a position slightly ahead of the target ship and ordered the first saturation bombing.

More than a dozen bombardiers poured down with all their might, and incendiary bombs fell like hailstones, smashing into the target ship, causing even greater flames.

Yu Jingqiu did not monopolize this precious time, and ordered the fog balloon bombing formation to attack on its own, and the Great White Shark broke away from the battlefield as the flagship and flew to a higher place to observe the battle situation.

Soon, the incendiary bombs equipped on the fog balloon ran out, and the next thing to do was the air supply training, Guan Xiaoyun tied the safety rope, opened the side door of the back warehouse, threw out a thick hemp rope more than 20 meters long, and then looked down at the door frame probe.

Yuqing's mist balloon was the first to run out of ammunition, and the other four fog balloons continued to take turns attacking the dilapidated target ship on the sea, and Yuqing raised the altitude to leave the battlefield for the first replenishment.

Grab the rope dropped by the airship, move it a little in the direction, and gradually increase the height so that the rope is straight and oblique at a small angle, while keeping pace with the airship.

On the airship, Guan Xiaoyun, who was wearing windproof goggles, saw that the other party had fixed the rope, sent a signal, and immediately hung a prepared wooden box on the speed reduction pulley.

At this time, the weight of the wooden box pulled the rope, and the airship was okay and was not affected too much, while the fog balloon with a much smaller weight was a little shaky, and Yuqing continued to adjust, and it took a lot of effort to finally stabilize again.

Guan Xiaoyun held the string in his hand and slowly released it, and the wooden box hanging on the pulley slipped down little by little, sliding towards the mist balloon below the side. There was no danger, the wooden box arrived at the fog balloon, and the female soldiers quickly untied the rope and took down the wooden box, hung up the empty box that had been used before, and then pulled Xiaoyun back to the airship.

In this way, a total of three boxes, it took about ten minutes, the ammunition was replenished, the fog balloon released the rope, lowered the altitude and re-entered the battlefield.

In this way, one after another fog balloons took turns to replenish and then re-enter the battle, while at least two fog balloons continued to bomb continuously on the battlefield, and the rhythm control was very perfect, that is, the target ship was too sturdy, and after the first round of bombing, it broke into two sections, and the second round of bombing had just begun to become charred planks.

On the tugboat, a group of sailors looked stupid, this is the first time they watched at such a close distance, the air force, it is too violent, stay on top of people's heads and throw bombs, it is too scoundrel, this is completely different from their previous combat methods, the sailors are secretly glad, fortunately these air forces belong to their own side, otherwise, don't fight, it is better to jump into the sea directly than to be burned alive and blown up.

In the other two places, Chang Xun and Situ Muran's formation was similar, and they both successfully completed the training task, Chang Xun's face was filled with this smug smile, and he led the team to move closer to the flagship of the Great White Shark.

Next, it was a two-by-two cruise, with the Great White Shark returning to base first, and the other airships and fog balloons regrouping and setting off in all directions, making a detour back to base.

When the last dinghy landed and the first flight lesson was successfully completed, the students were very excited, cheering loudly, celebrating each other, and then smiling and tirelessly cooperating with the ground crew to overhaul and maintain each aircraft in the scolding of the monsoon.

That night, Yuan Fang held a summary meeting, unreservedly and shamelessly pointed out some mistakes and deficiencies in the drill, and especially criticized some people by name, Chang Xun and Situ Muran were among them.

Situ Muran's mistake was that he was too noisy and often occupied communication resources, but his advantages were also obvious, he was calm and commanded.

Chang Xun, Yuan Fang's evaluation is that he is more than brave and lacks a sense of self-protection, because when bombing the target ship, in order to be more accurate, he actually ordered to descend to a height of 700 meters, how to say this height, far beyond the range of ordinary bows and arrows, but some strong bows or heavy crossbows can still be reached.
