Chapter 1317 Gunboat and Princess
In the northern part of Danrong Island, at the edge of the rainforest, as two huge bombers flew past, a sea of thick smoke and fire instantly formed.
Within the scope of the bombing, all animals and plants were reduced to nothing.
Some soldiers who were far away from the center of the bombing and were lucky enough to survive looked at this scene and their minds went blank. They didn't react until the heat wave came over them and knocked them to pieces.
At this time, the two bombers in the sky circled in the sky and reported to Du Fei via radio: "The bombing is completed, please return."
Du Fei was sitting on the gunship at the back. He had seen everything happening in the distance and said in a deep voice: "Permission to return, have a nice trip~"
As he spoke, the gunship flew past the two bombers flying back.
Then the gunship flew like a vulture searching for prey, swooping towards the still burning place.
Most of the surviving soldiers on the ground were still in a state of confusion. The few who reacted quickly saw the bomber flying away and were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but they did not expect that the roar of the turboprop engine had just become smaller and started to get louder again.
Following the sound, there was another plane coming!
Because the plane was lower this time, it looked larger and more oppressive than the previous two planes.
The people below subconsciously thought it was still a bomber and immediately ran away.
Unexpectedly, the plane that came this time did not open its magazine and drop bombs, but flew over them very slowly.
The double-barreled machine cannon under the nose of the aircraft began to spray flames, followed by the heavy machine guns mounted on both sides.
Then there was a bang, and the main gun on the hemispherical turret at the tail of the aircraft started firing.
Although the 100mm caliber grenade is not as powerful as the aerial bomb just now, this time it is not a coverage attack, but a targeted attack, targeting where there are many people.
The first shot went down and hit where a dozen people were gathering.
A crater was instantly made on the ground, and with the screams, the mangled corpse was blown into the air and fell hard to the ground.
Blood, flesh and internal organs spattered onto those nearby, causing another scream.
This is just the first shot, followed closely by the second and third shots...
In the cabin, two gunners kept stuffing shells into the barrel to maintain the rate of fire of the 100mm gun at more than twelve rounds per minute.
Coupled with the cannons and machine guns on the front and sides, a total of four tongues of flames drew deadly lines on the ground unbridled, making this gunship look like a monster harvesting life crazily.
If the previous bombers left a shocking impression on people, the gunships at this time left people with trembling fear.
The total number of surviving soldiers on the ground was not large, there should be hundreds of them. At this time, like ants, they abandoned their guns and tried their best to hide in the rain forest.
Du Fei was sitting in the cabin and could see some of the ground conditions through the portholes.
His face was expressionless, showing no sympathy or pity.
Because these people are not worthy. In Nanyang, not only the Indians are guilty, but the Malays are also unclean, but in comparison, they are not so rampant.
Just at this moment, another small propeller plane flew from the west.
On the plane, the side door was open, and a foreigner carrying a camera peeked out from inside, filming the gunships on the ground and in the air.
The appearance of this plane was not a coincidence. Du Fei called the airport specifically when he was passing through Kuching.
It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment idea, it was Du Fei's arrangement before he left. Once he could bring the bombers and gunships over when he returned, he would have someone follow him to shoot a video.
Although aerial photography in this era is very difficult, it is not impossible.
After all, during World War II, a lot of aerial videos were left behind.
After two days of preparation, it finally came in handy.
In the camera lens, the gunship is flying in circles in the air, the cannon at the tail pours shells on the ground, and four tongues of flame are sprayed out from the front...
The only fly in the ointment is that this aircraft is a prototype and has not yet been painted.
It would be more appropriate to spray-paint a large shark or roaring tiger pattern on the outside.
However, at this moment, the people below finally reacted, but because they did not expect to be attacked by an air attack, they had no anti-aircraft weapons at hand, so they could only set up machine guns and shoot in the air.
Ordinary machine gun bullets hitting the gunship are unable to hit this rough-skinned big guy. The main parts of the aircraft are armored to protect against ordinary machine gun bullets.
At this time, suddenly, a stream of white smoke rose into the sky from the jungle on the ground.
Someone actually used a shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missile!
In an instant, everyone on the gunship who was aiming down and firing saw it and shouted: "Anti-aircraft missiles!"
Instead, there was no movement from the three people in the cockpit. Only the captain said calmly: "Evasive maneuvers, metal chaff preparations..."
At the next moment, the pilot jerked the plane's control stick.
The plane, which was originally circling in the air, suddenly made a sharp turn in the opposite direction. At the same time, two fan-shaped metal chaff strips burning with dazzling light sprayed out from under the wings.
Du Fei was in the cabin, and with a sudden shake, he almost flew out of his seat.
The shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missile fired from the ground had its guidance device interfered with and hit the burning metal chaff, exploding with a bang.
While the gunship was avoiding the missile, the 100mm cannon at the tail quickly adjusted its firing angle and fired a shot at the location where the anti-aircraft missile had just been fired.
With a bang, a big tree was interrupted.
The twin cannons under the nose of the aircraft also fired at the same position, clearing a small clearing in the blink of an eye.
I don’t know if the person who fired the missile just now is dead or has escaped.
But it didn't matter anymore, the gunship continued to pour ammunition elsewhere.
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that the ammunition carried by the gunship was depleted and there was not much fuel in the tank, so it turned around and returned.
At this time, the northern part of Danrong Island had turned into a scorched earth.
Not long ago, the Ma army of more than 1000 people showed off their power, but only less than 400 people remained.
The gunship completed its first actual combat mission, leaving a lasting shadow on countless people.
Even Wei Chenggong and Ma Dongmei, who were hiding deep in the rain forest, were dumbfounded, including the mercenaries under them.
They didn't expect this to happen. Just after the bombing, some people were quick to climb up the treetops and saw the gunships wreaking havoc in the sky. They could tell that at least they were not their enemies.
Fortunately, Du Fei and Ma Dongmei have a weak spiritual connection. Ma Dongmei stayed in the portable space and received Du Fei's order at the critical moment.
"That's our plane." Ma Dongmei said decisively: "Yes, Her Majesty the Queen sent us for support!"
When the people present heard this, their eyes lit up.
Although some people suspected that Ma Dongmei was talking nonsense, the facts were right in front of them. The previous plane bombing and the current one were all focused on the enemy.
Wei Chenggong glanced at Ma Dongmei, which meant that she was telling the truth to boost morale.
Ma Dongmei nodded slightly to reassure him that what she said was true.
Wei Chenggong breathed a sigh of relief, then straightened up suddenly and shouted: "Comrades! Our reinforcements are coming~ Cheer up, load your bullets, and charge with me."
The hundred or so people who were originally demoralized suddenly felt as if they had been given a shot of blood.
They were all veterans of the battlefield and knew how terrifying the bombing on that scale just now was. Although they were not sure how many enemies there were, there were certainly not many left.
Not to mention the fire support from the air...
At the same time, some people who were watching the battle secretly were also confused.
Lijiapo was the closest, less than fifty kilometers from where Danrong Island was bombed to Lijiapo.
Li Jing got the news first.
"What did you say!" Li Jing, who was originally sitting on a chair, suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief: "Bombing? What's going on?"
From the phone, Li Jing received information about Danrong Island, which confused him.
Suddenly two bombers arrived, carrying out carpet bombing, followed by a plane capable of firing shells from the air on the ground.
The former is easy to say, but what the hell is the latter?Gunships are relatively obscure weapons, and most people really don't know much about them.
"Can you confirm what type of bomber it is?" Li Jing quickly calmed down and asked for details.
The other person on the phone said: "Sorry sir, at present we can only confirm that it is an aircraft with a very large bomb load, not Meguo's B-52..."
Li Jing frowned. It couldn't be the B-52. What reason did the Meguo people have to send out bombers?
"Could it be a Speed Link person?" Li Jing couldn't help but doubt it and immediately rejected the idea. The Speed Link person also had no reason.
After much deliberation, he never thought of Huaguo's head, because in his subconscious, Huaguo couldn't reach here at all.
However, just ten minutes later, new information was received.
"Report~" A secretary knocked on the door and entered the office.
Li Jing frowned and said, "What's going on?"
The secretary said: "Lin Tiansheng made a statement just now..."
Li Jing raised his eyebrows.
The secretary handed over a telegraph newspaper: "Look at this."
Li Jing glanced quickly and couldn't help but stare: "It's him!"
It turned out that just 10 minutes ago, Lin Tiansheng announced that because a forest fire broke out on Tanrong Island in the Riau Islands under his jurisdiction, two of the latest firefighting bombers were specially dispatched to carry out targeted firefighting at the fire point...
"Fire bomber? Are you really fighting..."
The corners of Li Jing's mouth twitched, and he suddenly remembered that Nicole visited Du Fei's aircraft factory a while ago, and the bombers they saw were claimed to be fire bombers~
Thinking of this, his heart trembled: "Could it be...them? Is it possible?"
Li Jing's face looked ugly, and this situation made him a little flustered.
It is less than fifty kilometers from Danrong Island to Lijiapo.
Before, Li Jing had always felt that the mountains were high and the emperor was far away. In Nanyang, it was enough to rely on the Western powers, and there was no need to consider other attitudes.
However, this situation reminded him that that was all in the past.
If he does things without a bottom line, it doesn't mean that there are no means to deal with him.
Li Jing licked his lips and couldn't help but think of Suhatu who died without a complete body.
How Suharto died is still a mystery. Some say it was done by Meguo people, while others say it was done by Sulian people, but neither side has admitted it.
Now Li Jing suddenly had another suspect, which caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on his forehead.
On the other hand, in Jilongpo.
Although the distance is further away, there are survivors who report directly through the radio, so they know more about the situation here.
They also received a statement from Lin Tiansheng about dispatching fire bombers to put out the fire.
"Provocation, this is a naked provocation!" A middle-aged soldier with a mustache was extremely angry.
Of course, it only looks angry on the surface. When encountering this kind of situation, you must play your own role. As a soldier, of course you must be tough.
But smart people understand that they will only suffer a dull loss this time.
Because nominally and legally, the Riau Islands belong to India. Subian had previously passed an executive order and placed the Riau Islands under West Kalimantan.
Lin Tiansheng has natural management rights over the Riau Islands.
This is why the Jilongpo side pretended to be deaf and dumb after the situation occurred in the Liao Nei Islands.
Because after weighing it, they felt that it was not easy to take advantage of it.
It wasn't until Subian took the initiative to contact and tell the whole story that Jilongpo felt there was an opportunity to cooperate with Subian and squeeze Du Fei out.
Unexpectedly, the telegram sent back from the front showed that there were more than 500 people in total, with more than two-thirds of the casualties.
What a concept!It gives me a headache to think about it. In the absence of a large-scale war, more than 1000 people were killed at one time.
And it wasn't over yet. Wei Chenggong, who had been trapped in the rain forest before, took the opportunity to lead his men out for a surprise attack, causing many casualties and stealing a lot of equipment.
In the office, the old man sitting behind the big desk looked ugly and remained silent.
This time it was his decision-making error. He didn't care how many people died, but he couldn't help but consider the negative impact of this incident.
At this time, Mahathir on the side bowed slightly and said: "Sir, Subian deceived us this time."
Although it was just a sentence, the old man suddenly understood and slapped the table: "It was Subian who deceived us and led our soldiers into a trap."
After speaking, Mahathir looked at him meaningfully: "I'll leave this matter to you, don't let me down."
Mahathir's eyes lit up: "Thank you for your trust." This is an opportunity for Mahathir, an opportunity he has been waiting for for a long time...
Meanwhile, Yajata Subian's office.
Subian looked stunned. He was even more shocked than Jilongpo.
A few hours ago, he even felt that the overall situation had been decided. The people Du Fei arranged for in the Riau Islands were about to be eliminated. Even if Lin Tiansheng had jurisdiction, it would be impossible to obtain actual control.
There is no reason for Dufy to use the Riau Islands as a springboard to join the Straits Condominium Commission.
However, he didn't expect that just a few hours later, everything would change!
The Ma Army lost most of its more than 1000 men and horses in an instant. Immediately, Lin Tiansheng issued a statement and used fire bombers to "put out the fire."
As soon as he heard about the bullshit fire bomber, Subian immediately understood what was going on.
This made him feel powerless and helpless.
What is a backer and what is a background?It means that when a child is angry outside, a parent will step in at a critical moment.
Subian leaned tiredly on the large leather chair.
Close your eyes and take a long breath.
He knew very well in his heart that the plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife failed.
At the same time, there were others who were more shocked than him.
But I didn't dare to act rashly until I figured out what was going on.
Report immediately.
In just a few hours, the news was already placed on Nicole's large desk.
This time, Lijiapo, Jilongpo, Yajiada, and other small villages in Nanyang were all suppressed.
They originally relied on their geographical location and felt that Huaguo's hands could not stretch out so long, and sometimes they acted quite unscrupulously. However, this time it was proved that the long-range bombers were fully capable of carrying out punitive revenge on them.
Relatively speaking, Wanshengtun's reaction was more calm.
Because on Labor Day, two prototypes of the H-8 successfully flew at the same time, they had expected this day.
I just didn't expect it to arrive so soon, let alone carry out a live-fire mission for the first time.
All Saints' Tunnel, in the circular office.
Nicole, who was successfully re-elected, was even more energetic. He frowned when he received the news from Nanyang, but he was not too surprised. He said calmly: "I asked through the foreign teacher channel, what is going on?"
The capital was well prepared and immediately insisted that this was normal business behavior.
Those two firefighting aircraft have been sold to the West Kalimantan Provincial Fire Brigade. As for how they use them, that is their business.
Of course, this is only an official response, and the two sides have had more candid exchanges in private.
Meguo said that it is inappropriate to sell a bomber of this level and hopes that it can be considered more carefully.
Huaguo went down the slope and said that he could consider taking back the two fire bombers.
Meguo didn't care about the life or death of other people. They were more worried that the two planes staying in Nanyang would have adverse political effects on them.
Although they have countless ways to shoot down this huge and heavy bomber, no one dares to shoot down the fighter plane easily before a formal battle.
In this case, the existence of those two planes has a huge influence.
Little did they know that these two planes were not originally intended to stay in Nanyang.
Because it hasn't reached that stage yet, neither China nor Du Fei feels that now is the best time to declare its presence in Nanyang.
The strength is not enough, and the overall situation is not right.
If Du Fei hadn't been forced to do nothing in order to join the Strait Condominium Committee this time, he wouldn't have taken this step.
On the other side, Du Fei landed at the Kuching airport in a gunship.
It is rare that Zhu Li and Wang Yufen are waiting here at the same time.
When they learned that Du Fei was coming back by plane and running to the battlefield in person, the two women couldn't sit still.
Fortunately, everything was safe. Seeing Du Fei jumping off the gunship in high spirits, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
If Zhu Ting were here, she would definitely scold Du Fei with a fierce face, but Zhu Li and Wang Yufen could not.
Wang Yufen didn't want to talk about it. In front of Du Fei, it was just a small dough, no matter how you knead it.
Although Zhu Li has a stronger personality, she has no choice but to have a reputation that is not justified and her brother-in-law is the eldest sister. She only complained a few words in a cursory way.
On the contrary, Du Fei was quite excited. As soon as he got off the plane, he called out and rushed to carry ammunition to the plane, and flew over to fight again while it was still early.
All kinds of ammunition for gunships are ready at the airport.
They also prepared food and drinks for the crew. After all, it had been more than eight hours since takeoff and they had just experienced another battle.
Everyone on the plane, from the pilot to the gunner, was exhausted.
But they were also quite excited. This was their first time fighting this kind of battle.
When I heard that I wanted to do it again, not only did I not complain, but I was eager to try it.
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the crew to eat, Du Fei passed by Zhu Li and Wang Yufen.
Everyone immediately stood up.
Du Fei opened his hand and pressed it down, and said with a smile: "You continue to eat, I will just say a few words. Comrades, you performed very well today and showed the combat effectiveness of your new equipment. When you go back, write down your combat experience. , these are valuable experiences..."
Soldiers always eat very quickly, and before the meal is finished, everyone is already in a hurry.
The aircraft was replenished with fuel and ammunition.
Everyone immediately returned to the plane and took off into the sky with a rumble...
On the other side, in the woods of Danrong Island.
Taking advantage of the enemy's chaos, Wei Chenggong and Ma Dongmei led a counterattack and achieved some results.
But as the gunships left, they did not dare to fight.
The enemy still has a numerical advantage, and if you continue to fight, you will easily get bitten back.
Back into the woods again, everyone's mood was different.
Just now, Wei Chenggong sent someone to take a look at the bombed area. It was so shocking.
Moreover, it has been determined that the main force of the horse army is gone, and all that is left are the two flanks that were separated before to encircle them.
"Comrade Dongmei, look at our next step..." Wei Chenggong superficially asked Ma Dongmei, but in fact he had other intentions.
Wei Chenggong is not stupid. His family is from a well-established family. Mr. Wei was also a well-known figure in Caogang back then. He had seen the power of the Ma family in the Northeast and knew that it was not ordinary people's methods.
When his daughter-in-law Song Zhenzhu got along with Ma Dongmei before, Master Wei had warned her not to offend this girl.
This time Wei Chenggong came out with Ma Dongmei, and Mr. Wei repeatedly reminded him.
Previously, Ma Dongmei had firmly concluded that the plane coming was her own, which made Wei Chenggong speculate that she had some way to contact Du Fei.
Ma Dongmei was also very straightforward. Du Fei had just told her that the gunship would have a second round of attacks, so they should cooperate well.
He looked at his watch and said: "There are still 35 minutes left. The gunship will come back. We will find the enemy's stronghold and use the signal gun to guide the attack."
"Gunship?" Wei Chenggong knew for the first time that the aircraft that looked like a bunker in the sky was called a gunship. Not to mention, it was quite appropriate.
He nodded and said: "Okay, I understand." He rolled his eyes again. With fire support, it would be a big loss if he didn't use it. He just took the opportunity to completely eliminate the remaining enemies.
……
Early the next morning, Du Fei broke away from Julie's arms.
After returning from the airport yesterday, Du Fei returned to Zhu Li's side, but Wang Yufen was not at a loss either.
Du Fei had already made plans, and it happened that Wang Yufen and Zhu Li were both here, so he said to Zhu Li: "Sister, have you seen Xiao Shu Yun~"
Zhu Li nodded, wondering why Du Fei suddenly mentioned this.
Du Fei continued: "The little girl is so cute. How about being your goddaughter?"
Zhu Li was stunned for a moment and then realized that Du Fei wanted to give his daughter a place.
It stands to reason that Zhu Li and Wang Yufen are both outcasts. The difference is that Zhu Li has the title of king, and Xiao Zhengping is a prince from birth, regardless of whether he is an illegitimate child or not.
Wang Yufen's daughter does not have this treatment.
Du Fei asked Zhu Li to adopt Du Shuyun as his goddaughter, so that he could legitimately give the little girl the status of a princess.
Wang Yufen was not stupid, she immediately understood the connection and looked at Du Fei with eyes full of friendship.
Although she never said it, she had always considered her daughter's identity in her heart.
It's just that Du Fei was too busy during this period, so she couldn't add any more trouble, as she seemed too ignorant.
Unexpectedly, Du Fei had already taken it to heart and brought it up in person today to relieve her tangle.
Zhu Li rolled her eyes at Du Fei, with a sour taste in her mouth, and said with a pout, "You are the only one who cares about me."
After speaking, he looked at Wang Yufen and sighed: "Sister Yufen, we are all miserable people~"
Wang Yufen lowered her head and said "hmm", and glanced at Du Fei from the corner of her eyes, her eyes watery, as if to say, I'm not bitter.
Zhu Li then added, "Bring Xiao Shuyun later, and we will hold a serious ceremony to let outsiders know."
Wang Yufen was stunned. She didn't expect that Zhu Li would be like this. She thought she would just bring the child here and kowtow to recognize her godmother.
Zhu Li said with a smile: "Yufen, we must move around more often in the future and don't get separated."
Wang Yufen responded again, knowing that she owed Zhu Li a favor this time.
Although Du Fei proposed the matter, there are still big differences in how it is done and how it is done.
Obviously Zhu Li has achieved the highest standards, not only giving Xiao Shuyun status, but also respecting her as a mother.
In the end, Wang Yufen went home happily, and immediately called her parents and younger brother Wang Xiaodong to tell them what had just happened.
The three of them were also surprised.
Previously, Wang Yufen's parents were a little worried that Du Fei would dislike Wang Yufen because she only gave birth to a daughter.
Now I feel relieved.
Wang Xiaodong also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't say it, he knew in his heart that he could be where he is today because of his sister.
Even back then, if Wang Yufen hadn't gone to Du Fei to recommend himself as a pillow, it would have been impossible for his family to be as wealthy as it is now.
Wang Yufen hugged her daughter, kissed her again and again happily, and murmured: "Mom knows that dad can't bear to leave us."
Du Fei returned to the villa with Julie.
After all, Julie must be rewarded for being so cooperative...
"woke up?"
As soon as Du Fei moved, Julie woke up too, with her long hair disheveled and rubbing her eyes.
Du Fei chuckled, got out of bed with his buttocks naked and stretched his waist.
He is now in high spirits on happy occasions.
Last night, the gunships were dispatched for the second time. With the support of Wei Chenggong and Ma Dongmei, they once again inflicted heavy damage on the remnants of the Ma Army.
Later, Lin Tiansheng issued a warning to Ma Lai in a tone of ink.
So far, Jilongpo has lost both his wife and his troops.
Subian's tactic of borrowing a knife to kill someone also completely failed.
On the other hand, Meguo, while negotiating through normal channels, sent George Bush directly to Du Fei.
I sent a telegram last night and will probably arrive this afternoon.
(Sorry, I was bragging yesterday and said I would write [-] words, but I didn’t finish it today. I promise to complete the task tomorrow.)
