The new Messerschmitt that flew in later was extremely fast, and it was over the freighter in a blink of an eye. Just when everyone thought it was about to launch an attack, the fighter plane suddenly rolled sideways and headed towards the reconnaissance plane. Pounced from the wing and hit a spot shot.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
The sound of the cannon was powerful and flames spewed out, hitting the two auxiliary fuel tanks in the belly of the reconnaissance aircraft.
Two seconds later.
"boom!"
The explosion of the fuel tank was enough to tear the reconnaissance plane into pieces. The fighter plane soared into the sky with several huge fireballs and splashed countless sparks.
This change is too sudden.
Then, the Messerschmitt's cabin cover was opened, and a brand new blue sky and white sun flag fluttered in the wind, very bright.
"Zhihan!"
Karen was overjoyed, spreading her arms and cheering.
"It's Colonel Zhou!"
Liu Xianfu and others came to their senses from the panic and were overjoyed. They waved their arms along with Karen and greeted Zhou Zhihan.
Zhuo Zehua said excitedly: "Mr. Holden, please get ready, Colonel Zhou is about to land."
"beep……"
Seeing that the waiting Messerschmitt finally appeared, Mr. Horton took out his whistle and blew it. He grinned and shouted: "Boys, get out of here, the world's number one ace you want to see is here." La!"
Immediately, several young sailors ran out from everywhere, each holding a dick in their hands, ready for battle.
These sailors are all Chinese. For this voyage, Horton specifically requested from the Maritime Safety Administration that all be equipped with Chinese crew members.
"Mr. Horton, full speed ahead."
Zhou Zhihan had told Liu Xianfu before that when he landed, the freighter must move at full speed to buffer the speed of the fighter jets.
The deck of the cargo ship is not large, and it is not possible for an aircraft carrier to take off and land aircraft while it is parked.
"Full speed ahead!"
Mr. Horton, with his bulging belly, waved his order to his first mate.
"Copy that! Full speed ahead!"
The first mate replied that the sailors went all out and gradually increased their speed to the extreme.
Zhou Zhihan had experience in jumping and landing in the Sixing Warehouse before, but the Sixing Warehouse was four stories high, and the area upstairs was much larger than the deck of the giant ship, and it was two meters above the ground. Thirty meters high. If the plane fails to land, he can still rush forward to the Suzhou River, which is still more than ten meters above the ground, and then pull up the nose of the plane. The freighter has a very deep draft and is only ten meters away from the sea. Left and right, if you are not careful, the fighter jet may fall into the sea.
Besides, the Messerschmitt he was flying was not a carrier-based aircraft.
Although in the past few days, he had spent a lot of money to hire a few trustworthy mechanics, and he worked day and night to modify the landing gear of this fighter jet, so that it could barely land on the ship, but the structure of the carrier-based aircraft is different from that of the land fighter. .
In the past few days, in order to adapt to landing on ships, he specially entered [Air Overlord] to practice the take-off and landing methods of various carrier-based aircraft for a long time, and he became very proficient in it. However, the only platforms for him to practice in the system were aircraft carrier platforms. There is no current freighter-like platform.
Therefore, the Messerschmitt, which is not a carrier-based aircraft, landed on the narrow deck of a giant ship. It may be the first time since the emergence of fighter jets.
After the intentional crash that afternoon, Liu Xianfu and Zhuo Zehua, who had been waiting for a long time at the predicted crash site, immediately stepped forward, placed the body they had previously found in a German bomber next to the wreckage of the A214 Spitfire, and then drove With Zhou Zhihan safely landing, he quickly drove away from the scene and completed another golden cicada's escape.
Then the three of them came to the secret hangar together. In the past few days, the staff had been taking advantage of the darkness to compact the previously reclaimed wasteland and transform it into a runway that could be used for planes to take off.
In the morning, knowing that Karen had left safely on the freighter, Zhou Zhihan was relieved. Just before dawn, he took off in the Messerschmitt.
After Zhou Zhihan left, the staff quickly dismantled the hangar, remodeled the compacted runway, and laid everything out on flat ground. After a few rains, the ground will grow green and it will be restored to its original state.
Zhou Zhihan was familiar with the British airspace within a radius of several hundred kilometers, and he could easily avoid all British and German fighter planes by piloting a fighter jet.
After catching up with Karen's cargo ship, Zhou Zhihan did not descend immediately. He knew that the giant ship had not entered the high seas and was not completely out of the danger zone, so he followed it for protection at high altitude after automatically refueling.
Sure enough, before the cargo ship was about to enter the high seas, he spotted a Messerschmitt reconnaissance plane flying in at high altitude...
Just now, Zhou Zhihan quickly shot down the German reconnaissance plane, leaving the operator no chance to send a message, directly nipping the danger in the cradle. Then he pulled up the nose of the plane, quickly climbed into the air of nine kilometers, and once again determined the radius of four to five kilometers. No German planes appeared within ten kilometers, and then they slowly lowered their altitude and prepared to land.
The freighter is moving very fast.
Zhou Zhihan piloted the Messerschmitt to fly around the freighter several times, constantly losing altitude, and then flew forward from behind the ship, close to the side of the ship.
Speed is reduced to a minimum.
The sea breeze was too strong, and it was even louder and messier beside the boat.
Zhou Zhihan took a deep breath and stabilized the joystick.
But the wings kept shaking.
I pressed the stick slightly to the left and tried twice, but couldn't land.
Zhou Zhihan pushed the throttle forward, gently pulled the lever, and the fighter plane left the side of the ship and raised its altitude.
The first landing failed.
Seeing Zhou Zhihan's first landing failure, Karen's face showed anxiety as he left the deck and entered the cockpit of the freighter.
There was sweat dripping from Mr. Horton's fat face. Although he didn't know much about fighter jets, before the Anglo-German war started, he often saw the British Royal carrier-based aircraft "Sea Fire" flying on the sea while driving a freighter on the aircraft carrier. The process of falling.
Holden wiped the sweat from his face. Compared with the deck of his freighter, it could be called a deck?
At this moment, Mr. Horton regretted his decision.
The deck of the freighter is too small. If the Messerschmitt discovers an accident during landing, not only the plane will crash, but even the freighter may suffer, because the fighter jet carries weapons and the fuel will catch fire. , the sea wind is so strong, the fire will quickly sweep through the cargo on the cargo ship, and the consequences will be disastrous.
Zhou Zhihan took a deep breath again, and Messerschmitt gradually descended.
Still starting from the stern of the big ship, enter close to the side of the ship, move forward, hold the pole steady, tap the rudder lightly with your left foot, and get closer to the side of the ship...
Messerschmitt's speed dropped to a minimum, approaching the stall point, and the engine experienced a slight vibration that caused slow operation.
Zhou Zhihan's hands were as steady as a rock, but there was sweat dripping from the tip of his nose.
Messerschmitt continued to descend forward at the slowest speed, almost flying to the bow of the ship close to the sea.
accelerate!
Pull up!
Flying 500 meters above the ground, Zhou Zhihan gasped for air, but he was still unsure. His back was soaked with sweat.
Because he knew that if he failed, there would be a huge risk of aircraft crash, loss of life, or even a fire on the freighter, so Zhou Zhihan was under great pressure. This was the biggest challenge he had faced since returning to China.
Karen's mother and son were on the boat, which was like a mountain of pressure on him.
Seeing that Zhou Zhihan failed twice in a row, Karen bit her lower lip tightly, and her fingernails clenched into fists were almost inserted into her flesh.
Mr. Horton kept smoking and praying the cross.
Everyone on board was also looking at the Messerschmitt in the sky.
