Chapter 43: Technical Upgrade
ument.write(
Sun Xiang now feels great, from the beginning of getting on the plane, Sun Xiang felt that there was something different, as if he had broken through some kind of barrier, making him feel like the plane was his own incarnation. At first, when he went up to the sky, Sun Xiang carefully savored this feeling, so at first, he didn't join the team formation's attack.
When the two planes were about to engage in a one-on-one dogfight, Reed's pressure gradually increased. As they climbed to an altitude of 4,000 meters, Reed took the initiative to attack, but his two shots were dodged by Sun Xiang's plane.
At this time, Sun Xiang had a feeling that he didn't need to use such a big action to dodge, and he pulled closer to Ryder again. Sun Xiang decided to try out his own feeling.
Ruidi saw Sun Xiang once again at the shooting hole, making fine adjustments to his flight attitude. In the instant he locked onto Sun Xiang, he pressed the fire button. The machine gun bullets formed a line in mid-air and shot towards Sun Xiang's plane...
Sun Xiang slightly manipulated the control stick, and the plane slowed down. The wings were vertical in the sky, and 6 rows of bullets passed by from the side of Sun Xiang's plane, missing the target.
"Unbelievable!" Colonel Ralph's astonished voice echoed through the loudspeaker. The cadets and instructors below the base tower also gasped in shock, how could someone dodge gunfire like that????
At this time, Instructor No. 3's mobile phone also joined the ranks of besieging Sun Xiang's mobile phone, and the pressure that had just left was pressed on his heart again.
No. 3 instructor cooperated with Ruidi to constantly adjust the flight attitude and prepare to lock onto Sun Xiang's flight route, but every time he locked on, Sun Xiang's plane would lose control at that instant, and No. 3 instructor's sweat dripped down from his eyebrows, not even having time to wipe it off.
Lieutenant Ryder began directing and suddenly the two planes that were chasing Sun Xiang turned back, and Eric, who was still struggling in the sky, was instantly hit by 12 machine guns.
Colonel Ralph: "Cadet Erik has been shot down, gentlemen. It seems this battle is over."
"Oh! My god, instructors, you're too cunning!! Steve!! Why didn't you hold them back, my plane is shaking from their attack, I'm scared to death, you play with them yourself."
Xun Xiang chuckled and said: "Sorry, I was avoiding gunfire just now. This feeling of controlling everything is really cool."
"Eric snorted and hummed: 'You'll be even more comfortable soon.'"
The dogfight in the sky had thoroughly turned into a pursuit battle, with three planes surrounding one and attacking it. Sun Xiang concentrated his mind to the limit, constantly looking for gaps in the attacks of the other three. Sun Xiang's plane would often burst out at an angle that people wouldn't think of, until slowly but surely he felt his control reach its limits. Then the counterattack began...
Sun Xiang dodged Reed's shot with another micro-movement, then slowed down and rolled horizontally, turning the three pursuing planes into prey in an instant.
An airplane filled with the front windshield, Sun Xiang pressed down on the machine head a bit, then held onto the machine gun, and sure enough, the targeted plane made a downward pressing motion, the machine gun's colored bullets accurately hitting the tail of the plane! The control stick was pulled up urgently, the plane lifted its head high, the machine gun fired again, this time hitting Instructor No. 3...
This string of brilliant dodges and counterattacks left the cameramen holding back their gasps in amazement.
"Commander Ralph's voice rang out: 'Instructor No. 2 Luo Rui, No. 3 Gade Thomas, shot down and withdrawn from the combat sequence.'"
The cheers had faded away, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the only two planes left in the sky. For some reason, Colonel Ralph had a feeling that a miracle was about to happen again above Polyn Base!!
Ritter could no longer hear the complaints of Instructor No. 3 on the radio, his eyes fixed intently on the tail of Sun Xiang's plane. He pressed down on the control stick and sure enough, Sun Xiang dodged his aim with a slight pull-up motion. At this moment, Ritter slightly lifted the control stick, raising the angle by about 10°. The machine gun fired...
Sun Xiang suddenly felt a threatening sensation, and instinctively pushed the plane down, causing it to shake slightly. The plane's back was grazed by several tracer bullets. Sun Xiang banked left in a small arc, trying to turn around and get behind Ryder, but Ryder quickly pulled up his plane and broke off the engagement. As Ryder's plane climbed away, Sun Xiang also accelerated after him, while Ryder's plane wobbled slightly from side to side, making it harder to aim.
Sun Xiang tried several times to pull the trigger ahead of time to catch Reed's advance, but was dodged by Reed's irregular flight actions.
The trainees on the base applauded for this wonderful battle, and the divine flight skills made people involuntarily worship.
Sun Xiang gradually figured out Ryder's flight trajectory, and slowly Ryder's plane became more and more dangerous. After flashing through Sun Xiang's attack, Ryder also broke a cold sweat. This kid's flying skills were too exaggerated, he had already performed beyond his level, yet he still couldn't turn the situation around.
Sun Xiang once again locked onto Reed's plane, Reed banked left trying to evade Sun Xiang's pursuit, but was half a beat too slow. The bullets swept across the left side of the fuselage all the way to the tail, leaving an ugly colorful mark on Reed's plane.
Colonel Ralph exclaimed, "Just after half a year of actual combat, Steve's flying skills have taken another big step forward. He's truly boundless!" As he spoke, he pressed the airport loudspeaker button: "Steve wins!"
Ruidi's face was covered in sweat as if he had just been pulled out of the water, his complex expression gazed at Sun Xiang, and finally let out a sigh.
The airport was in an uproar, Sun Xiang and Ruid's flying skills were no longer something they could compare to.
Hues jumped out of the plane and rushed over to the camera, asking everyone about their shooting situation.
"Everything up front was fine, but Steve and Red's fight was too fast, we didn't capture all the shots, at least half of my shots here were not taken."
The other photographers also nodded, and Hughes hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's okay, we can edit it out."
The ground photographers all nodded, and the panoramic aerial battlefield was too far from the ground, so it's estimated that only small dots can be seen.
Hues shook his head helplessly, it was a real pity that such a wonderful scene hadn't been captured on film.
After finishing a day's shooting, the film was taken away for washing and editing. With nothing to do, Xiuzi followed Sun Xiang around the base, scrounging for food and drink, looking like a complete idler.
As the day flew by at the base, Sun Xiang wrote an application letter and handed it over to Colonel Ralph.
Dear General:
My motherland is suffering from the invasion of Japanese aggressors.
As a Chinese, I cannot just sit back and watch my motherland being threatened by enemies.
I have a good flying technique, I think this is when my motherland needs me most, day
Their ambition is very big, they have a strong maritime power, for whom this force is prepared?
Obviously in preparation for a possible U.S. intervention, I applied to go to China as part of the Flying Tigers
Bring along several comrades-in-arms, hoping the base can support me.
Steve Sun May 1937
