When the white light completely faded, Wei Ran subconsciously looked around and found that he was sitting on a truck. There were many various airplanes parked around the truck. In the carriage, there were more than a dozen people.
People are busy checking their equipment.
What kind of group of people are these...
Wei Ran looked around, only to find that except for a man in his forties in the middle in front, the remaining soldiers wearing one-piece flight suits were each more immature than the last.
Some of these overly young soldiers were kissing the photos in their hands, some were nibbling carrots from unknown sources, and some were nervously mumbling something with their eyes closed.
Before he could lower his head to see what equipment he had on him, the truck screeched to a halt. The too-young pilots immediately jumped off the truck and ran to their respective planes.
As the crowd jumped to the ground, Weiran waited for a while, and the last one ran to the only remaining fighter jet.
It wasn't until this moment that he had the time to look at the equipment on his body, a half-new one-piece flight suit, a brown leather flight cap and a pair of windproof glasses. Fortunately, there was a
Parachute bag.
Looking at the fighter jet next to him, with its open cockpit, Soviet green paint, and patches on the skin, he recognized it as an I-16 fighter jet at just one glance.
In the seat next to him, the middle-aged man was flying the same fighter jet. The only difference was that on his wing, there was a sentence written in red paint: "Defend the great Stalingrad with your life."
!”
"Victor, don't be in a daze, hurry up and get ready! Our compatriots in Stalingrad are still waiting for us!" As the middle-aged man spoke, he had already neatly jumped on the wing and climbed into the cockpit.
After coming back to his senses, he quickly climbed into the cockpit, sat down, and fumbled to start the plane.
Fortunately, the control system of this aircraft is very different from that of the An-2 aircraft that he only knows, and both have rear tricycle landing gear, which means that the way of taking off is not much different. The only thing that makes him uncomfortable is
It's just that this open cockpit is really scary.
By the time he put on his goggles, the middle-aged man next to him had already steered the plane onto the crude runway and started taxiing to take off.
"Victor, it's your turn! Remember to follow Captain Nineel closely."
On another plane on the other side, the pilot waved to Weiyan and reminded on the radio channel.
Gritting his teeth, Weiran steered the plane onto the simple runway, pushed the accelerator and started the approach. When the speed was almost the same, he gently pressed down the direction stick and raised the tail of the plane, and then increased the accelerator again.
Gradually, as the speed increased, the howling wind in his ears became more and more intense. After glancing at the dial he had just found, Weiran gently pulled the direction lever, and the nose of the aircraft slowly lifted up. Under the support of the airflow, it smoothly
The climb began.
At this point, it was much simpler until the war started. Under the control of the direction stick and throttle, the fighter jet he piloted flew slightly behind the left side of Captain Ninel's plane, and seriously played the role of belonging to Captain Ninel.
His role - wingman.
After glancing at the constantly beating altimeter, Wei Ran tried to glance at the ground.
As far as the eye can see, the sparkling Volga River and the green forests and farmland are beautiful, but they are not more attractive than the smoke rising from the city in the distance.
Gradually, more and more planes took off behind them, arranging in a loose formation, while climbing up the altitude while shortening the distance to Stalingrad city.
Not long after, the city in smoke was left behind, and Wei Ran once again experienced the indescribable feeling of brain failure when he saw the ruins of the Kremlin in Stalingrad.
What he didn't expect was that the sequelae of this skill mission were stronger than before. Although it lasted only a short moment, he could feel that his ears, eyes, nose, and even the corners of his eyes seemed to be leaking out.
Blood and even breathing became extremely difficult.
Rubbing his nose vigorously, Wei Ran put his hand on the steering column again, but it already felt extremely familiar. But even so, he still did not have any confidence or confidence for the next battle.
At just this moment, a German fleet appeared directly ahead. The two warring parties immediately changed their formations and faced them in groups of two or three!
However, the opponent's enemy planes were much faster than theirs, and the weapons they equipped were far more powerful than the only four machine guns on their planes.
It was only a brief moment of exchange of fire. Wei Ran, who was participating in an air battle for the first time, did not seize the opportunity to fire. Instead, he watched the enemy planes pass under him, and watched several planes next to him being shot.
Then it began to fall towards the Volga River on the surface!
Relying on his inexplicable muscle memory, Wei Ran fiercely pulled the steering column to the left and controlled the plane to start turning, looking for an opportunity for a second exchange of fire.
After just one round of firefight, when he formed the formation again with the lead aircraft with the slogan on the wing, the other wingman had already disappeared.
"I'll lure him away, Victor, seize the opportunity to fire!"
In the radio channel, before Captain Niner finished speaking, he had already climbed up instantly with his flexibility, almost completely exposing his belly to the cannon of the enemy aircraft on the opposite side that had also completed its turn!
"Fuck!" Wei Ran was startled by this desperate attack, and immediately controlled the nose of the plane to aim at the fighter jet and started strafing.
However, almost at the moment he opened fire, the German fighter plane and the fighter plane piloted by Niner overhead began to roll sideways at the same time, each dodging the bullets flying towards them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Pull the steering column to the right hard, Wei Ran bites the aircraft that is still rolling to avoid, and waits patiently for the nose of the aircraft to contact the opponent's fighter fuselage.
Opportunities for cooperation.
At this critical moment, Niner's fighter jet suddenly jumped out from below, waving a fire snake mixed with tracer bullets, and easily enveloped the wings and cockpit of the German fighter jet.
After glancing at the rolling plane, Weiran gritted his teeth and ran back to the side of Ninel's fighter to fly with him. At the same time, he nervously watched the surrounding situation, looking for enemy planes that might appear at any time.
This time, Wei Ran became the prey. Just as he was bypassing a small patch of clouds, a plane suddenly flew past on his left, aimed at him and started strafing.
Almost subconsciously, he pressed down the control stick to lower the altitude. However, at this moment, two more aircraft began to dive towards him from a slightly higher altitude on the right! At the same time, the conspicuous barrage also
It swept across the wing of the fighter jet he was flying!
Listening to the terrifying sound of the dense bullets passing through the wings, Wei Ran, who was in the first air battle, became furious and continued to press the direction stick and began to dive toward the ground.
At the same time, the fighter jet piloted by Niner seized the opportunity and bit one of the enemies chasing Wei Ran from behind. He squeezed the trigger and enveloped the dense barrage.
"Victor! Climb! Turn horizontally to the left!" Nineel shouted a reminder on the radio channel.
Almost subconsciously, Wei Ran pulled the joystick as requested by the opponent, but Wei Ran discovered that an enemy plane had already appeared diagonally above Nineel behind him.
"Nineel, watch your back!"
Wei Ran only had time to remind him, and then he pulled the joystick fiercely to raise the nose of the plane, venting all the accumulated frustration in this confusing empty field onto the fighter jet that was diving towards Nineel.
In the barrage composed of four machine guns, the fighter jet that was about to find a position to bite Ninnel was instantly enveloped. At the same time, Ninel also rolled to the left, shrouding the pursuer with the barrage.
Behind Wei Ran, the last German fighter plane is firing!
The noise of the engine, the noise of machine gun fire, the roar of the wind, all of these could not hide the smile on Wei Ran's face stained with nosebleeds - he finally landed a plane!
However, before the smile on his face disappeared, he suddenly felt that the plane beneath him seemed to have lost control. He subconsciously turned around, but Wei Ran's heart skipped a beat. Because he could clearly see that he was piloting the plane.
On this aircraft, both the vertical and horizontal wings of the tail were completely mutilated! Not only that, there were even several bullet holes in the skin of the tail!
Before he could report the situation on his side, a cluster suddenly appeared in the clouds directly ahead.
"Nineel, my plane is out of control." Wei Ran tried his best to calm down, pressed the radio and began to report his situation.
"Seize the opportunity to parachute." Ninel's order was still extremely simple, but the fighter jet he controlled pounced on the enemy planes without hesitation.
Glancing at the sparkling Volga River below him, Weiran gritted his teeth but did not rush to jump off the still-climbing plane. Instead, he took out his camera as quickly as possible and pointed the lens at the pilot Ninel.
of that plane.
In the constantly shaking camera, less than ten seconds before and after, the plane piloted by Ninel sprayed out four fire snakes again.
However, without any warning, the four fire snakes died down again, and Niner suddenly raised the nose of the plane and without hesitation crashed into a German ME109 fighter jet flying head-on!
The moment Wei Ran pressed the shutter, he clearly saw a fleeting collision between the two planes that were turning in the same direction at the same time.
The inconspicuous fireball disappeared in a flash, and one of the wings of Ninener's fighter jet disintegrated in the air, and the nose propeller of the German fighter jet that was escaping also turned into flying fragments.
After hastily putting away the camera, Wei Ran unbuckled the seat belt that fixed his body, and kicked off the out-of-control fighter jet.
At the same time, he also saw that the fighter jet that had lost its propeller was still trying to maintain its attitude. On the contrary, the fighter jet piloted by Niner was spinning and falling to the ground with its nose down!
Amid the howling wind, after a brief free fall to the ground, Wei Ran's parachute automatically opened under the control of the vacuum gauge, and his descent slowed down.
It was only at this time that he finally saw Nineel finally jump out of the out-of-control plane, and soon opened a white round umbrella.
Looking at the German Me109 fighter jet that had lost its propeller, it had already reached the top of its head and seemed to be still trying to control its flight attitude.
Finally, looking at the smoke cloud exploded by the anti-aircraft cannon at a higher altitude, Wei Ran felt both lucky and regretful. He was lucky that he did not die in the air battle, but regretful that his first air battle was only
It lasted for such a short period of time and then it was over.
Admittedly, before he used the metal notebook, he had already calculated that if it was a dogfight, the metal notebook would definitely teach him something.
But he didn't expect that the book only taught him how to fly a plane, but it didn't teach him how to fight. Or to put it more bluntly, he thought that even if he couldn't fight for 300 rounds, he could always rely on it.
Technology and German aircraft were involved in a few decent dogfights.
But in fact, what just happened at high altitude had already completely shattered all his self-righteous plans.
In his wild thoughts, Ninel, who was closest to the ground, landed first, and even the man and his umbrella were swallowed up by the vast forest on the surface.
Taking this opportunity, Wei Ran took the time to look at the landscape beneath his feet. Based on the smoke-shrouded city on the other side and the winding Volga River, he was certain that unless a strong wind blew, he would definitely fall.
Landing on the island of Golonid in this era.
He stretched out his hand and gently tugged on the parachute rope above his head. Knowing that this kind of round parachute was not under human control at all, he simply took the time to remember the direction of Nineel's landing, and then focused on the aircraft that was about to make an emergency landing.
