After Li Yueying translated Wang Xuexin's words, she also added a sentence of her own: "What Battalion Commander Wang said is the truth. I have been in China for five years. This is indeed the case with the Eighth Route Army. Their equipment can be used as 'primitive'."
describe!"
As a result, the Yingjiang pilots became silent.
Because they all understand that the gap between Hawker 81 and Zero War is nothing compared to the gap between swords and spears against tanks.
Therefore, this is a question of courage, not a question of backward equipment.
Wang Xuexin changed the subject and continued: "As I said, there is no shame in being afraid. We will all be afraid. But fear is fear, and we still have to do it! Gentlemen, because if we don't do this, the enemy will also attack.
Enter our homes and plunge bayonets into our chests, not just us, but our families as well. So, we have no other choice but to pick up any weapons at our disposal and fight the enemy. This is the Eighth Route Army you see
warrior……"
Wang Xuexin nodded in the direction of the Chinese pilots, and then continued: "Actually, it's not just pilots, there are thousands of Eighth Route Army soldiers. What you can see, including me, are all people who are afraid but can only force themselves.
Walk on the battlefield to face the enemy, look directly into the enemy's eyes, move towards the enemy's knife and gun, until the last drop of blood is shed and the last breath is exhaled! This is what you see, the Eighth Route Army!"
The pilot Yingjiang was silent for a long time, and then he didn't know who was the leader and started to applaud.
The applause was sparse at first, but then became more and more frequent. Some people even excitedly came forward to shake hands and hug the Chinese pilots.
"That's very well said, Wang!" Major Doug stepped forward and shook hands with Wang Xuexin, then saluted Wang Xuexin and said, "I find that it is not until now that I really know you, China, and the Eighth Route Army. You are
A true warrior!"
Wang Xuexin joked: "So, do you need me to introduce myself?"
Major Doug and Li Yueying laughed in unison.
Then, Major Doug followed suit and did some ideological work for the Eagle Sauce pilot.
This was done under Wang Xuexin’s reminder.
Because Yingjiang usually does not have the step of "ideological work", it is more common for them to give some morale-boosting words before the battle, and then go into battle with a shout.
But the effect is definitely not as good as solving psychological problems in daily life.
This is what Wang Xuexin said to Major Doug: "Major, I know that Yingjiang does not ask or want you to take off for combat, so I would like to express my gratitude for your last bombing mission!"
"You're welcome!" Major Doug replied, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
The reason why it was "embarrassing" was because Wang Xuexin saw through it, and Yingjiang didn't want to waste too many pilots in the direction of China... This was a bit like deserting, at least to Major Doug.
Wang Xuexin saw through Major Doug's thoughts and said: "It doesn't matter, I can understand it. However, I wonder if the major is aware of a problem?"
"What's the problem?" Major Doug asked.
Wang Xuexin did not answer but asked: "If they also know that Yingjiang does not require them to take off for combat, what do you think the result will be?"
Major Doug said "uh" and then understood.
An army that knows it does not need to fight will be completely unprepared, both mentally and physically.
The result is that the pilots are not only demoralized but also demotivated.
At that time, it will not even be a question of "motivation", but a question of finding various ways to save one's life.
As a result, there may be some cunning maneuvers like the stubborn ones... deliberately destroying fighter planes in the hope that they won't have to take off, so there won't be any danger.
Wang Xuexin said: "No matter what angle you consider it, I think you should prepare them for battle. Because this is a battlefield, we cannot guarantee that there will be any accidents. By then, they should be in a 'ready' state instead of
'I need protection' status!"
Major Doug nodded and said: "You are right, I know how to do it!"
Major Doug sure knows how to do it.
He did not reveal at all that Yingjiang ordered them not to take off for combat, but used another statement to deliberately "mislead" Yingjiang pilots.
Major Doug said this: "Gentlemen, do you think this is a war between China and the Japanese? No! You should know very well that if these Japanese planes were not in China, they would fly to a certain aircraft carrier in the Pacific tomorrow.
It will shoot down our carrier-based aircraft and cover bombers from bombing our aircraft carriers and land! Do you know what the maximum battle damage ratio caused by this Japanese fighter plane is?"
Most Yingjiang pilots don't know about this problem, because this issue is kept secret in Yingjiang country so as not to damage morale.
Alec knew this, and replied: "One to six, Major!"
The Yingjiang pilots opened their doors with a roar.
They knew before that the "Zero War" had a huge advantage over the Yingjiang fighter jets, but they didn't know that it was actually as big as one to six.
"Yes, one to six!" Major Doug nodded: "In other words, we have to spend six aircraft to shoot down one of the enemy's 'zero battles'. What we are doing now has attracted the enemy 12
"Zero combat," tell me, how many fighter planes have been saved? How many warships? How many lives have been saved?"
After Major Doug made this calculation, the pilot Yingjiang understood.
12 "zero battles" may not seem like many, but if calculated based on the battle loss ratio of one to six, that means 72 fighters have been obtained for Yingjiang. This is not a small number. You must know that an aircraft carrier can only carry 75 fighters.
to 79 fighter jets.
"This battle loss ratio is no longer the case!" Major Doug continued: "Because of the Chinese battalion commander's tactics, we have brought the battle loss ratio to one to three, and occasionally it can approach one to two or even higher."
As he spoke, Major Doug spread his hands to the pilots and said, "I dare say that without the Chinese battalion commander's tactics, most of you would have probably died in the domestic air battle! You know what I mean.
?”
The pilots nodded.
It is not difficult to reason. If the Pacific battlefield continues to develop at a battle loss ratio of one to six, it will not be long before a large number of Yingjiang pilots have to sacrifice. This vacancy will naturally have to be filled by second-line pilots like them, so...
"So!" Major Doug finally concluded: "Whether it is public or private, we should be ready to fight the enemy! What do you think?"
The Yingjiang pilots nodded one after another and said, "Yes, Major! Fight, there is no way you can escape!"
