Chapter 484 Run
Just out of the wolf's lair is like a tiger's mouth.

This is the current mood of Doolittle and his party.
He had just escaped from the siege and interception of the Japanese, and now he was being pursued by Japanese fighter planes. If it wasn't for the language barrier, Doolittle would have sung "Life is Bitter".

"Eagle's Nest...Eagle's Nest... This is Sparrow No. [-] and No. [-]. We are carrying out the mission of transporting American pilots. We were intercepted by two Japanese planes at a position [-] kilometers southwest of Liantai County. We ask for support!"

"Eagle's Nest understands that the 5th Patrol Squad is patrolling nearby. I will send them to your place immediately, and they are expected to arrive in 10 minutes."

"10 minutes? After 10 minutes, you can collect the corpse!" Bian Daling yelled and slammed on the rudder with her right foot, pulling the joystick desperately to the right.

Soldiers generally have a bad temper, even women are no exception, especially at this critical moment of life and death, no one has the time to reason with you slowly.

Although the three Doolittles could not understand Chinese, they used the same tone of voice when swearing in any language.

Sitting in the back, they felt that the plane was going up and down like a roller coaster. The whole plane was flying up and down in the steep mountains, watching the peaks go left and right, except sitting at the back holding the MG15 machine gun and shooting desperately. Except for Paul, Dolittle and Henry were all shaken dizzily.

Bian Daling is like this, and Bian Xiaoling on the other side is also like this, and there is a wounded person lying on his plane, not to mention the feeling.

Huang Huaimin stood on the high command tower overlooking the runway in front of him.

This is a field airport more than 60 kilometers west of Liantai County. The location of this airport does not appear on any map, and it is a secret field airport.

Since yesterday, his two reconnaissance aircraft squadrons have been fully dispatched, and half of the aircraft have been sent to perform missions.

Using a reconnaissance plane to go to Zhejiang, more than 1000 kilometers away, to carry out a secret rescue plan. Although this mission seems a bit unreliable, judging from the current results, the effect is still very significant.

According to the report, among the six groups of planes sent out, three groups have received the American pilots and crew members to be rescued, and are now flying back.

"Report sir, it's an emergency!" A captain hurried over, "I just received a report that when Sparrow No. [-] came back, it was intercepted by two Japanese fighter planes [-] kilometers northwest of Liantai County. The situation is very dangerous. .”

"Bastard!"

Huang Huaimin became angry when he heard it.

"What is the radar station for? How did the little devil's plane fly so close without issuing an early warning?"

"Sir, the brothers at the radar station are no different. Now the little devils have learned how to behave. When they approach us, they will deliberately lower their altitude. Our radar's ability to detect low-altitude targets is extremely limited." Seeing Huang Huaimin get angry, the captain Say something fair for those radar soldiers.

Huang Huaimin also knew that what the captain said was true, how could you say that the person who knows you best in the world is often your enemy.

After such a long period of competition, although the Japanese army has repeatedly suffered losses due to the overall backward performance of their own fighters, but with their emphasis on the flight corps, a lot of information from the flight corps in the past has also been inquired by the Japanese spy agencies.

The Japanese army has roughly estimated the detection distance and operating frequency of the Liantai militia radar, and even learned that the radar's ability to detect low altitudes is very weak.

Therefore, during this period of time, the Japanese planes often flew at low altitudes, using the mountain peaks as a cover to sneak in and carry out sneak attacks, which made Huang Huaimin very angry.

"Is there any support sent?"

"The fifth patrol team has been sent there, and it is expected to arrive in 10 minutes."

"10 minutes, are you going to collect the corpse?"

Huang Huaimin's words were almost exactly the same as Bian Daling's.

He circled around, and then ordered: "Send a squadron immediately, and divide it into six teams to carry out all-round patrols in the southwest direction. I guess, a rescue team will have to return later, and we must not let the sparrow squad thing happen again." Repeat."

"Yes!"

"Also...let the fire engines and ambulances stand by the runway, I hope they don't encounter any trouble." Huang Huaimin signaled to the tower dispatcher, then turned around and quickly walked down the stairs to the tower.

"Sir, Daling is an excellent pilot, and Xiaoling is also a clever girl, they will be fine." The lieutenant passed a cigarette case to Huang Huaimin with a cigarette in his mouth.

Pulling out a cigarette from the cigarette case, Huang Huaimin took out a lighter from his pocket.

"I originally thought that with the arrival of ten regiments of the Eighth Route Army, we would be able to gain an advantage on the battlefield. I didn't expect the devils to reinforce tens of thousands of troops. The old devil Ningji Gangcun personally went to Taiyuan to command.

Commander Gao hasn't left the war room for three days in a row, we can't make any more trouble here! "

The lieutenant nodded solemnly. The reason why the Liantai militia has repeatedly suppressed the Japanese army over the past year is largely due to the strength of the air force.

Thinking of this, the lieutenant couldn't help complaining: "Ms. Zhen is not worried. She looks at us one by one like a Tang monk, but no one realizes how much pressure we are under!"

"Okay, stop complaining."

Huang Huaimin took a deep breath, "Immediately put the planes of the Second Squadron into storage for maintenance as soon as possible. We need to free up taxiways and aprons for Da Ling and the others to prepare for an emergency landing."

The lieutenant quickly led away.

Seeing the trotting figure of the lieutenant, Huang Huaimin finally exhaled the smoke that was pent up in his lungs.

Speaking of it, he still admires Gao Hongming very much.

When he was serving in the Air Force of the National Army, generally speaking, the newly built dirt runway would be filled with dust as soon as the plane took off.

If it rains, it will be muddy everywhere, and the runway will be waterlogged. If the roadbed sinks, the runway will become a murder trap, completely useless.

The Liantai militia is different. The engineers got a pile of 10 feet (3 meters), 15 inches (38 centimeters) wide, and pressed into strips of prefabricated channel steel with holes. remaining bolt holes.

After the engineers finished leveling the ground with heavy-duty forklifts and road rollers, they connected these channel steels in rows, added rivets and bolts, and then laid them on the soil roadbed, and then hammered them hard with a hammer.

Soon a steel runway made of thousands of prefabricated steel plates appeared in front of the pilots.

This kind of runway paved with steel plates is almost the same as the cement runway, and its flatness and firmness far exceed that of ordinary field airports.

"They're back!"

At this time, the watchman on the tower waved his binoculars and shouted loudly.

"Not good... the engine of a white crane stalled!"

"Quick... Hurry up to the side of the runway and let the fire engines and ambulances start." Huang Huaimin threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and quickly ran towards the Willys jeep parked beside the control tower.
