Chapter 279 Maximum Speed
People in the kitchen are preparing dishes.

Several people are discussing.

"What a strange thing, the ship is shaking a little today."

"That's because the ship's speed was too fast, so it pushed up a big wave."

"This speed is unprecedented!"

"Yes! At least 20 knots or more. The ship is a little drifting."

"There must be a major event, so you will be desperate."

That's right.

After receiving the order, the captain received a secret message from Dai Li.
Dai Li told him that the Japanese knew that the Zhongshan ship had arrived in Qizhou, so they sent six planes to bomb the ship.

Dai Li asked the captain to drive as fast as possible and escape to Echeng.

The captain was covered in cold sweat and almost collapsed.

Little Japan, you are targeting me.

Must be fast, the captain himself at the helm.Speed ​​up to 23 knots.

Under normal circumstances, warships sail at about fifteen knots.

1 knot is equal to 1 nautical mile per hour, which is 1.852 kilometers (kilometers) per hour.

Fifteen knots means traveling fifteen nautical miles per hour, or 27.78 kilometers (kilometers) per hour.

Now, Zhongshan Airlines has reached the highest speed. 23 knots means traveling 23 nautical miles per hour, or 42.6 kilometers (kilometers) per hour.

This is in the middle of a river, not the sea, so it’s a bit too much.

Along the way, Zhongshan Airlines never stopped blowing its whistle.It kept ringing.

All the boats coming and going along the river gave way one after another.If this hits, my life will be lost.

However, it said that the time for Rit's fireworks to lift off was 27:[-].

After receiving the signal, the agents on the shore went to the radio room immediately.It was 57:[-] when we arrived at the newsroom.

They were ready to send the report immediately, and it took twenty to ten minutes from writing the manuscript to sending the report.

At 17:[-], Rite in Wuhan received the telegram.

They immediately recoded the telegram they received and sent it to the Japanese Intelligence Department in Shanghai.

The Japanese Intelligence Section in Shanghai received the telegram at 48:[-].

At 59:[-], the head of the Japanese Army Intelligence Section saw the telegram and immediately sent a telegram to the Japanese Army Headquarters in China to report the incident.

The Japanese commander was very happy and ordered to notify the Japanese aircraft at Anqing Airport to take off.

At 35:[-], the order was given to the Japanese army at Anqing Airport.

At 58:[-], the commander of the Japanese Anqing Airport issued an order to send six Japanese fighter planes and one bomber to bomb the Zhongshan ship.

At [-]:[-], the Japanese aircraft was ready and requested to take off.

At [-]:[-], the Japanese planes took off and formed a formation to fly to Qizhou.

It was only an hour and a half before dark.The task of the Japanese military aircraft is: within one and a half hours, blow up the Zhongshan ship of the Chinese Navy!

Because after twenty o'clock, it was completely dark, and the visibility of the plane dropped to a few, and it could no longer fly.

At this time, the Zhongshan ship has been flying at high speed in the Yangtze River.

Compared to other ships moving, they are flying.

At nineteen o'clock, the Zhongshan ship crossed Huangshi.

At this moment, the captain breathed a sigh of relief.

It is estimated that at this time, the Japanese aircraft is approaching.
He ordered: "All the machine guns are ready for battle! Just give me an order to shoot to the sky to prevent the Japanese planes from approaching our ship. Hold time so that our ship can enter Echeng!"

Give the order and everyone will know what happened.

All those who were fit for battle came to the deck.Machine gunner in place!The muzzle of the machine gun was aimed at the sky.

The other soldiers took out their rifles, leaned on the deck, and aimed their guns at the sky.

Two soldiers climbed to the highest point on the ship with rifles.On the entire warship, no one spoke, everyone was looking at the sky.

At nineteen ten, the sky roared.

Six Japanese fighter jets escorted the Japanese bombers and flew within 1000 meters of the Zhongshan ship.

The captain shouted loudly: "Comrades, the moment of life and death has come. For the sake of the Chinese nation, for the Zhongshan ship, and for ourselves, let's shoot."

Immediately, gunfire rang out.

The first to fire was the machine gun.

Two heavy machine guns and four light machine guns fired at the same time,
Due to wartime needs, several naval guns on the Zhongshan ship were dismantled, and the guns were sent to the Wuhan Artillery Group for concentration.Therefore, there are no cannons on the Zhongshan ship.

The sudden shooting of the machine gun startled the Japanese plane, and he retreated hastily, exiting the firepower net.

After exiting, they discussed and three fighter jets flew ahead to prevent the Zhongshan ship from escaping.Three fighter jets were chasing after him.The bomber took advantage of the Chinese machine gun fire and was entangled by six fighter jets to conduct a sneak attack and bomb on the Zhongshan ship.

Because the machine guns forced the Japanese plane to take off to avoid bombs, time was delayed. At this time, the Zhongshan ship had arrived at Daye.

Ahead is Echeng!
In the Wuhan Air Defense Command, many generals gathered at the headquarters.

From time to time, people reported to them the battle situation on the Yangtze River.

"The Japanese planes carried out a second attack. They attacked from both front and rear."

A lieutenant general asked: "Where did the Zhongshan ship go?"

"Just passed Daye!"

"According to the current speed of the Zhongshan ship, it can reach Echeng in 10 minutes!"

A major general shouted: "Zhongshan ship, hold on for me, even if you are injured, we must persist to Echeng."

The lieutenant general asked a major general beside him, "Are our cannons ready?"

"It's ready. As soon as the Zhongshan ship arrives in Echeng, our artillery fire will be fired in the direction where the Japanese plane is flying."

The lieutenant general said: "Now we will look at the Zhongshan ship."

On the Zhongshan ship, the battle was fierce!
Soldiers died.

The machine gunners were the target of the Japanese army. After 10 minutes, three machine gunners were dead.

Zhou Lin went up to the top.

He has advanced consciousness, and the system can provide him with information.So take hold of the Lord.

Just as a Japanese plane swooped down to shoot and rushed over to pull it up, the machine gun in Zhou Lin's hand screamed.

A string of bullets fired at the Japanese plane.

hit!
The Japanese plane tried to pull up, but the pilot did not parachute.He knew that even if he jumped, he would be a prisoner.

Although he tried his best, he couldn't do it, and the plane fell headlong into the river.Immediately there was an explosion.There was a huge splash of water.

The Japanese plane and pilot are gone.

The Zhongshan ship cheered.

This also inspired the courage of the combatants.

The two soldiers hiding at the top of the warship saw the Japanese plane approaching.

Instead of ducking, they shot immediately!
Their bodies were riddled with holes from Japanese machine gun bullets.

However, their bullets hit the Japanese aircraft,

The Japanese plane immediately pulled up and flew towards Anqing with black smoke.

The Japanese army lost two fighter planes at once, and it was already dark.

In desperation, the Japanese military plane had to retreat and fly back to Anqing.

After the battle, Zhou Lin was picked up by the soldiers, thrown into the sky, and caught again when he fell.I did this seven or eight times.

Zhou Lin, who had the best physique, was also a little dizzy.
