Chapter 25: Airport Defense War II (Vote and Collect)

  ument.write(

  Most of the Italian BR.20 medium bombers and a small number of JU87 dive bombers, The Italian Foreign Legion supported the BR.20, which was a 5-man operated medium bomber, was the mainstay of this bombing mission. Both aircraft had flight speeds of around 350 km/h, while the old World War I fighters had top speeds of only 300 km/h or less, and the bomber formation flew directly over them, ignoring their interceptions.

  The BR-20 had three 7.62mm and one 12.7mm machine guns, but for Sun Xiang and his crew, this model was too cumbersome and not very agile in turns.

  Three planes carefully approached the bomber formation, Sun Xiang fired first, one JU87 caught fire in the tail and made an emergency landing on the ground. Then Harvey and Ponomarenko also shot down two more JU87 bombers. The enemy commander divided his forces again, BR?20 continued to advance towards Madrid, while the remaining 13 JU87s surrounded Sun Xiang's group.

  The enemy officer had a good idea, but Sun Xiang and his men didn't buy it. As soon as the Ju-87s split up, Sun Xiang's three planes flew around them and continued to pursue.

  Harvey: "Steve, take out the big one on the far right!"

  "Alright!"

  As soon as Sun Xiang's voice fell, two IL-16s, 8 7.6mm guns spewed out flames, bullets accurately hit this BR?20, the tail gunner was swept away, killed on the spot, and the plane also spiralled down in a strange posture.

  This bomber group was bombed, and a group of unprotected bombers mixed with three enemy fighters. What is this concept? Equivalent to releasing wolves into the sheepfold, under such tension and pressure, the JU87 pilots dropped their bombs first. The JU87, which had reduced its weight, suddenly increased its speed by one stage, barely keeping up with the I-16's speed.

  Sun Xiang pushed the control stick forward, and suddenly a JU87 appeared on the windshield. Sun Xiang slightly pushed the control stick down and subconsciously pressed the fire button. A stream of flame swept across the bomber's back, fortunately knocking off its tail wing, causing the plane to spin and crash to the ground.

  Harvey, in a solo chase after a BR.20 bomber, was met with fierce return fire from the 7.7mm machine gunner in the tail, and Harvey spent half a day unable to find an opening to attack. Ponursky suddenly accelerated, making a small-angle turn, and got around to the side of the bomber, unleashing a burst of fire that hit the position of the machine gunner, punching holes in the fuselage and silencing the gun.

  "Hey! Bobo! Nice job!" Harvey's voice came over the radio.

  "Haha, the amateur bullfighter stared at the bull for half a day and found no way to knock down the bull, so he had to ask me, a professional, to take over!!" Ponorski's laughter left Harvey speechless.

  "Haha, buddies! Let's take down these guys first. If we let them into Madrid Airport, it'll be enough to get General Gomez drunk!" Sun Xiang said with a smile, and he locked onto another plane, but the bomber formation closed in, the tail gunners covering each other, and before Sun Xiang and his two companions could get close, they were already firing a barrage of bullets.

  Abandoning the porcupine-like formation, the three of them began to take turns flying the JU87, competing individually in flight skills. The bomber pilots were clearly no match for the fighter pilots who often engaged in dogfights.

  Ponursky's plane dived at an angle, the JU87 appeared right in front of him, and the bomber pilot had apparently discovered Ponursky's intention. The plane began to sway from side to side, and a cold laugh came over the radio from Ponursky. With his foot on the throttle and his hand on the control stick, Ponursky's plane seemed to be suspended behind the JU87 like a puppet on a string. Over the radio came Sun Xiang's voice: "Ponursky, stop playing around and take him down, we don't have much time."

  "Goodbye! My dear!" Ponorsky's cold voice came over the wireless.

  Machine gun fire erupted, bullets were sent into the plane's belly, boom! Another JU87 was shot down. Gradually, the JU87 pilots could no longer bear this situation of being picked off one by one. The remaining few JU87s saw that things were not going well and chose to escape, flying northwest before turning north to return home. The fighter squadron let go of these small fish and continued to stare at this group of nearly 30 medium bombers, when the wireless radio called out...

  "Base: 'Tower calling Matador, Tower calling Matador.'"

  Harvey: "Toreador received!"

  "Base: 'Harvey, this is Gomez. What's your situation?'"

  "General, the Soviet Air Brigade is engaging their fighters, we three are chasing after bombers, but there are still about 25 medium bombers heading in the direction of Madrid, report finished."

  "Gomez took a deep breath: "Damn it! We're in trouble now, the airport doesn't have any spare interceptors to stop them. Madrid is counting on you, don't let them get a chance to drop those tens of tons of explosives, God save Madrid!!"

  Gomez turned off the wireless, and this result obviously made him very worried. Sun Xiang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Now we don't care about their barrage, we are the last protective rope of Madrid, if we can't stop them, I'm afraid that in the near future, the sky above Madrid will become the domain of Italians and Germans."

  "Steve! You're kidding, right? The BR.20 is a bomber and it's slow, but this guy is all armor, our ammo won't be enough to take them down, and there are only three of us!"

  "God save Madrid, we can't delay any longer, one down is one down!" - Harvey

  "Alright, you win, get to work."

  Sun Xiang and three others pulled high-flying height trying to disperse this 'hedgehog' combination from above.

  The plane quickly climbed, and the three men flew in a human-shaped formation to the rear upper side of the machine group. Sun Xiang attacked an bomber that was lagging behind at the tip of the angle, firing first, two bursts hitting the left wing of the plane, causing this unbalanced BR-20 to crash into the plane on its right side.

  When the pilot of the plane on the right discovered that something was wrong, he hastily turned to avoid it, and as a result, a big commotion suddenly occurred in the rear part of the formation. The perpetrator of this commotion stared blankly, and a tentative shot unexpectedly achieved such an effect. Sun Xiang couldn't help but sigh, and then he, Harvey, and Bobo took advantage of the situation to launch an attack.

  The disordered formation could no longer take advantage of their dense firepower, the dense formation made it easier for the three men to shoot down the planes below, and even if they entered the range, there would be no problem with shooting deviation. The sound of bullets hitting the plane's body made the bomber pilots feel that their lives were about to leave them at any time, and the panic spread from the rear of the formation to the entire formation.

  The firepower of the IL-16 was pushed to its limits, with 12 machine guns spewing out flames non-stop. A bomber numbered 25 panicked and veered off course, crashing into it despite efforts to avoid it, ultimately unable to escape the fate of a mid-air collision.

  The right wing directly inserted into the fuselage of a nearby unlucky plane, and the huge propeller twisted into the belly of the plane. Then! Boom! Boom! Boom!!! A series of explosions occurred, and the bombs in the belly of the "Unlucky" aircraft were detonated by the propeller, immediately creating a light ball in the sky. The second explosion followed, and the explosion of the "Unlucky" plane caused the explosion of No. 25 aircraft. In an instant, nearly three tons of explosives released devastating power among the planes.

  The explosion itself is not scary, what's scary is the explosion in a dense formation of planes. Because they are too close together, the shockwave and scattered debris from the explosion become the most terrifying lethal weapon. The shockwave carrying countless fragments instantly swallowed up more than a dozen surrounding planes. Those closest to it disintegrated directly in mid-air, while those slightly farther away were riddled with holes like a sieve. The sound of explosions rang out one after another...

  Sun Xiang and the other two people were not far from the explosion point, they saw the explosion happen, Sun Xiang's pupils suddenly contracted, the bright light produced by the explosion made his eyes go blank, the subconscious pull-up made Sun Xiang's plane be thrown upwards by the shockwave combined with its own kinetic energy and inertia. 4 seconds later, Sun Xiang's vision recovered, he turned back to 'look' (scan) in the direction of the explosion, but there was no shadow of Harvey and the other two people!!!! Sun Xiang's heart suddenly...

  Xun Xiang shouted at the top of his lungs: "Havi!!!! Bopo!!!!! Where are you guys?"

  "Oh!!!! My god!!! We're right above you. Sun, you've blown out my eardrums." Harvey's voice came over the radio.

  "Oh! God, Steve, Harvey!! Look quickly, the bomber group has disappeared." Bopo was so excited that he couldn't maintain his cool guy image anymore.

  "Really is heaven bless Madrid."

  "Gomez's voice came over the radio: 'My God, what's happening on your end? We can see the explosion and flames from here.'"

  Sun Xiang's tone was erratic, his voice trembling: "Eh, I think... a miracle has occurred."
