Chapter 16 Naval Aviation
The air competition between Liu Xiang and Gao Zhihang made all the audience scream excitedly.
Undoubtedly, the superb skills of both of them opened their eyes to everyone. Whether it is the pilots of the Yanjing Aviation Team or the pilots of the Northeast Air Force, the two sides have been competing until now, and they deserve the respect of each other regardless of their victory or defeat.
The two fighter planes kept making various exquisite tactical actions in the sky. Many of Liu Xiang's tactical actions came from Zhang Meng's teachings. Their exquisiteness undoubtedly impressed all the Northeast Army pilots, including Gao Zhihang. He threw away Gao Zhihang's plane again and again, and then deliberately let Gao Zhihang bit him again, and then he used more exquisite means to throw him away.
However, Gao Zhihang's learning ability is beyond ordinary people. After using Liu Xiang's same action once or twice, Gao Zhihang learned it.
Rather than saying that the two are competing on the same stage, it is better to say that the two are discussing and exchanging experience and skills with each other. More like teachers and students, whenever Liu Xiang makes a new move, he will tell it through the public channel to remind Gao Zhihang to pay attention to his attack angle and moves.
If Liu Xiang's exquisite movements only made all the pilots of the Northeast Army admire him, then when he selflessly disclosed his tactical movements, he let everyone learn with him. His actions immediately won the heartfelt admiration of all the pilots of the Northeast Army, because whether they were studying in France or during their studies at Fengtian Aviation School, their instructors and classmates would hide and not tell the other party their true skills at all. Even elites such as Zhao Wenyi, Gao Zhihang and Wan Xianzhang have always surpassed their peers by relying on their own priority over others, and they have no intention of easily imparting their unique skills.
Zhang Meng was very pleased. Liu Xiang not only deeply suppressed others from his personal skills, but as the commander of the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire, his open-minded and selfless performance was enough to prove his competence, and also prove that Zhang Meng did not misjudgment.
Originally, Yanjing Aviation Team had already lost to the Air Force elites of the Northeast Army, but Liu Xiang's move immediately made everyone forget the competition between the new and old people, and it completely turned into an in-depth exchange activity between the new and old elites. The originally tense atmosphere between the two sides was also dispersed and infected by the harmonious atmosphere brought by Liu Xiang, which made both sides see the other's strengths and their own weaknesses, and they no longer dared to underestimate each other.
At this time, Liu Xiang's plane was bitten by Gao Zhihang's plane again, and everyone became nervous. I wonder if Liu Xiang could use an amazing trick this time, because Gao Zhihang behind him had too strong learning ability, and it was impossible for him to get rid of Gao Zhihang from his previous moves.
Suddenly, Liu Xiang pulled the joystick suddenly, pressed the head of the machine down, and dived vertically to the ground.
Gao Zhihang was unwilling to fall behind, and then he swept down.
Four thousand meters!
Three thousand meters!
The two of them dived faster and faster, and the earth rushed towards them.
Five hundred meters!
The audience on the ground suddenly made a sound of horror, and their nervous hearts were almost jumping out. If they didn't pull up again, the plane would definitely crash into the ground.
Four hundred meters!
Gao Zhihang never had such close contact with the earth. He immediately gave up and continued to bite Liu Xiang, but hurriedly pulled the joystick to pull up his plane.
Just as Gao Zhihang was pulling off the plane urgently, Liu Xiang showed a winning smile when he saw this scene through the rearview mirror. Then he opened the speed plate, then pulled the plane up steadily, and bit Gao Zhihang's plane in turn.
Shocking and warm applause broke out again above the base.
Undoubtedly, this time Liu Xiang not only showed Gao Zhihang his superb skills and courage, but also made the Northeast Army pilots understand a fact that the pilot's personal skills are important, but the technological content of the aircraft itself cannot be ignored.
Obviously, the aircraft of the Tang Air Force has more advanced design concepts and will play a huge role at critical moments.
When the two of them landed, Gao Zhihang hurriedly jumped off the plane and ran to Liu Xiang's landline, staring at the speed plate system on the tail of the plane and watching carefully.
Liu Xiang got off the landline and explained with a smile: "Before, this speed reduction board was only used by our bomber during dive bombing, but I installed it on the fighter and used high-speed dive to get rid of the enemy plane. Now it proves that my tactics are very successful."
The audience gathered up immediately applauded.
Gao Zhihang immediately said with admiration: "A extra speed reduction board means more life on the battlefield! Commander Liu, today Gao Zhihang finally knows what it means to have someone outside the sky. Thank you for your advice, Gao Zhihang has benefited a lot!"
Liu Xiang nodded and smiled at the Northeast Army pilots: "All the pilots of your Northeast Army are elite. It is a blessing for the Tang Dynasty and our Air Force!"
Liu Xiang's words represent recognition of the strength of the Northeast Army pilots, which immediately made them feel good. Since they were incorporated into the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty, they have been discriminated against. Now they have been recognized by the Air Force Commander, and they have also given their anger.
Zhao Wenyi saw Xue Zhigang and other pilots of the Yanjing Air Force on the side with shame. He knew that he was just aware of his behavior and said, "In fact, we have been studying flight courses for at least five or six years to achieve these insignificant results. The brothers of the Yanjing Air Force have only learned this in less than two or three years. They are much better than us."
Zhao Wenyi gave Xue Zhigang and other brothers of the Yanjing Air Force a big step in front of everyone, which made them very grateful.
Through the glass windows of the terminal, Zhang Mengjiang saw everything in his eyes, and he was very happy that this was the result.
A few days later, the atmosphere in Yanjing Aviation Base gradually stabilized. Although there were some confrontational emotions during training, they were much more harmonious overall.
However, these elites of the Northeast Army still had a significant impact on the original senior leaders of the Tang army.
Within a few days, Zhang Meng held several meetings to listen to opinions.
Because the Northeast Army who defected to the Tang Dynasty had a high anti-Japanese sentiment, although this was something the Tang army was happy to see, on the other hand, they wanted to fight back to their hometown in the Northeast all day long, but they actually had no real sense of belonging to the Tang Dynasty. This attitude was not a good thing for the Tang Dynasty because it was not easy to control.
According to the proposal of Li Haichen and Liu Xiang, Zhang Meng decided to organize more than 300 Northeast Army pilots into the Navy Aviation Corps and serve in the newly established aircraft carrier battle group. In this way, they spent most of their time at sea and were in the hands of the Tang army. No matter how hard these people were, they could not escape the palm of the Tang army.
