Chapter 327: What the Task Force Saw
"The current situation is serious, no less than a head-on confrontation, so you must pay attention to your own safety, there is no need not to leave this airport." Horst. Captain Young stood in front of the window, staring sharply at the empty and quiet runway outside.
Eighteen FW190s and one JU88B were quietly parked on the parking strip by the runway at this time, and the moonlight in Chongqing was still bright that night, and looking out of the window of the pilot's training room, the magnificent appearance of those war machines could be vaguely seen. The airport had been sealed off by the military, and the grass around the runway could be seen everywhere in the dim light of kerosene lamps used by the Chinese sentinels stationed there.
"It's two o'clock in the middle of the night, and it should be eight o'clock in the evening Berlin time, and it is estimated that our report should have been delivered to the Führer. Now we can only wait here, and I will not be with any Chinese officials now, who are full of lies. Lieutenant Dracula sat in the corner of a desk, holding a piece of velvet in his hand and gently wiping his dagger with a half-smoked cigar in the corner of his mouth.
"Let me state above all that no matter what you intend to do, my people will not hold you back, and you can trust me for that. I had tried my best to calm their emotions before, but it was impossible to delay for too long, and if the situation did not change tomorrow, I would have to force the order, these were the most elite pilots of the Luftwaffe, each of them was a precious treasure of the Reich, and it was absolutely intolerable to be treated and humiliated in such a rough manner. Shi Boru sat on an armchair, crossed Erlang's legs, and said with a serious expression on his frown. Although he was in a humble room with wooden walls, the Luftwaffe major still looked like a queen.
"That's not the trickiest issue, while Ensign Gerhardt's safety is important, I'm more worried about what exactly they took from the plane." Captain Yang stroked his chin with his hand, his expression full of worry.
JU88B was forcibly landed at Baishiyi Airport. Just in case of accidents. At that time, most of the persons in charge and the service personnel at the airport were transferred to the air raid shelters to avoid the air raids, leaving only a few lookouts on the top of the command building and the anti-aircraft machine gunners in the air raid nests next to the runway still holding their posts.
The White Ischi Airport had been in radio contact with JU88, and when they heard the news that Luftwaffe fighters had intervened in the air battle, the dispatcher even cheered directly on the radio. Then they learned that the German bomber had been injured and needed to land immediately at the White Market. The officer in charge of the communications office hurriedly rushed out of the dispatch room to look for the peak report, but by the time the corresponding personnel were gathered here and the reception preparations were re-prepared, the German bombers had already entered the glide course quickly.
Without any ground guidance, the pilot steadily landed the plane on a solid mud and gravel runway, and the standard three points landed at the same time. The superb skills displayed by the German pilots really opened the eyes of the Chinese Air Force ground crew at the scene.
The next step was to respond as usual with the courtesy of officialdom, and the reception officials that the Chinese side had originally prepared had already left for some reason, so at this time, the commander of the airport could only express a warm and sincere welcome to the Chinese side on behalf of the German special mission to the pilot team.
The Air Force colonel, surnamed Lu, was talking to Captain Yang through a German translator with a smile on his face, secretly glad that all the big bosses had left, otherwise if they found out that the Germans were just a captain, the scene would not be very good.
How could Colonel Lu know that although Captain Yang's military rank was not high, his background was extremely deep, on the surface, Captain Yang was the staff officer and liaison officer of Field Marshal Brumberg, but behind him was actually the identity of the staff officer of the Operations Department of the German High Command. It means that every report of what he sees and hears in the special mission will be archived and backed up in the high command, of course, it is completely impossible for the Chinese side to know about this.
Through Captain Young's account, the field colonel learned that the Luftwaffe escort group had joined the air battle against Japan. It could be seen that this news really made him a little overjoyed, so much so that he didn't care about continuing to be polite with Captain Yang, but hurriedly ran to the airport office to pick up the phone and report to Shangfeng. I don't know what he said on the phone, but I didn't see him come out again after spending more than ten minutes in the office anyway.
The commander didn't say a word and ran away on his own. The Chinese Air Force officers who remained on the runway could only stare wide-eyed, and finally one of them was fluent in German, and talked to the Germans about the war in Europe. finally revitalized the awkward atmosphere of the scene.
Time seemed to pass quickly, and after a while, there was a rumbling engine roar in the sky, and then eighteen German fighters lined up in a neat formation, made a full flight from the airfield, and then began to enter the landing procedure around the runway. Major Sboru and the remaining seventeen subordinates landed smoothly on the runway of the destination, completing the air expedition of more than 1,100 kilometers.
The German fighter pilots received a warmer welcome than Lieutenant Yang and his entourage, especially after the Chinese Air Force fighter pilots who had arrived behind the German aircraft group made a forced landing at Baishiyi Airport. These pilots, who were still in a state of excitement, excitedly told the people around them about the air battle just now, how they fell into the trap of the Japanese army and fought hard, how the Germans rushed into the battlefield like divine soldiers, and how the Japanese fighters were beaten by the Germans and finally annihilated.
This unexpected surprise aroused the joys and cheers of everyone at the scene, and the eyes of the officers and soldiers present at this moment were all focused on those tall and handsome Luftwaffe officers, who deservedly became the idols and heroes in everyone's hearts. The total annihilation of the Japanese invaders did not let a single enemy escape, not only saved the Chinese air force officers and men who were in a desperate situation, but also repaid the blood debt for the heroic souls who died in the battle on September 13. Many ground crews who participated in the containment and search and rescue work after the 13th day were already in tears, and some even leaned down on the side of the runway and knelt down towards the west, loudly comforting the souls of those who had died.
Up to this moment, the relationship between China and Germany is still very harmonious, and even because of the previous joint operations, the distance between the two sides has been shortened by leaps and bounds. The Chinese Air Force employs foreign pilots as flight instructors all year round, so most of the Air Force personnel speak some English and French, and many speak some German. When the language barrier is lifted, it is easy for them to resonate in some aspects as members of the Air Force, and then the friendship between the soldiers will naturally arise. Once the Chinese personnel got acquainted, the enthusiasm they showed made many Germans feel a little overwhelmed, not that the Chinese are very reserved and introverted, how to feel enthusiastic, even the French will bow down.
At this time, the colonel surnamed Lu finally came out of the office, he seemed to have learned the news of the total annihilation of the Japanese army, and when he met with Major Shi Boru, he was not very excited, he just solemnly expressed his gratitude to the friendly soldiers again with a smile on his face. On behalf of the national government, he welcomed the arrival of all Luftwaffe pilots, and announced that the chairman would receive them personally, but because of the great man's busy business, it was not possible to determine the exact time for the time being.
Compared with the previous battles, the Colonel seemed to be more surprised that the Luftwaffe flight captain was a woman, he had studied in the United States earlier, and had been exposed to a lot of Western culture, and knew that female pilots had long been common in Europe and the United States, but it was the first time he had actually joined the army and become a commander.
No matter how surprising. Colonel Lu didn't dare to despise Shi Boru's idea in the slightest, just the word "Feng" in the other party's name can prove a lot of problems, no matter what kind of background this person has, at least one Junker nobleman is undoubtedly there.
Colonel Lu introduced the reception arranged by the government to Shi Boru in an official tone. The Air Force Major found that the other party's attitude was a little strange. I feel that smile can't be said to be stiff, anyway, it doesn't look like normal communication.
"This land colonel gives me an uncomfortable feeling." Shi Boru whispered in Captain Yang's ear.
"Maybe it's something else that has happened, but we have to smile at us, which is very common in officialdom." Captain Yang replied disapprehantly.
Then Shi Boru made a request to the other party. Two of her subordinates were forced to land and parachute more than ten kilometers west of the airport, and she needed to organize a search and rescue team to rescue them. If it is convenient, can the Chinese side provide some means of transportation and guidance? She would be grateful for that.
Colonel Lu appeared to be very talkative, and he immediately agreed to Spojou's request, not only generously lent a Ford light truck, but also drew a platoon from the airport guard camp to serve as an escort and guide for the search and rescue team, accompanying the German troops. Shi Boru immediately thanked Colonel Lu for his cooperation and proposed that this point would be specifically noted in the report submitted to his superiors.
Without further ado, Sporu led Captain Yang and Lieutenant Dracula, plus Lieutenant Horn, the communications adjutant who had witnessed Gerhardt's landing position, and several people climbed into the seemingly well-maintained Ford pickup truck, and left the Baishiyi Airport and headed for Bishan County, escorted by a platoon of Chinese soldiers on foot.
After leaving the airport, they realized how bad the road conditions were here, the speed of the cars could not be increased at all, and the infantry could easily follow them. Along the mountain road with seven twists and turns, the team finally crossed the foothills of Jinyun Mountain, and out of the mountain pass is the county seat of Bishan County.
The Sino-German joint search and rescue team did not choose to pass through the city, but surrounded the city from outside the city walls. Shi Boru had already discussed with the second lieutenant of the Chinese Air Force who was in charge of driving, and he said that judging from the location on the map, it should have fallen in the area of the big reservoir in Daxing Township, where he had been there several times and was familiar with the road.
Just as the group walked around the county seat and walked on the dirt road leading to Daxing Township, a group of villagers carrying rifles came in front of them, and a middle-aged government official sat on a sliding pole in the middle of the team. Seeing an army surrounded by a truck coming in front of them, the members of the Self-Defense Corps retreated to the side of the road and moved out of the way.
Sun Kexia Sun Xiangchang had a calm face, and watched coldly as this group of Qiu Ba walked in front of him, but then he saw Horst and Lieutenant Yang standing high in the truck bed, and saw the straight German Army officer uniform on the other party, Sun Xiangchang suddenly waved the crutches in his hand excitedly, and shouted loudly in German at the same time.
