All this came so suddenly that all the novices were so sad, panicked, and looked at each other.

this……

How could it be...

this…

How could this be...?

this……

Is this still the invincible division that defeated the Japanese aviation force yesterday?

Yesterday, I fought the Japanese army at 18:0 over Jianqiao. Today... What's going on today?

Military aircraft continue to land.

Some people continued to be injured and some died in the cabin. Medical staff cried and rushed to save people. Ground crews tried their best to save fighter planes, put out fires, and put out smoke...

There was a lot of tension on the airport, including stretchers, medicine boxes, military doctors wearing white coats and military uniforms, and blood falling on the airport runway.

The rookies were at a loss and looked at everything that was happening in front of them, completely beyond their imagination. All of this instantly shattered the most beautiful dream in their hearts.

I was still making great progress yesterday, how could this happen today?

Blood!

The cabin was filled with blood, which was terrible.

The smell of gunpowder and bloody smell made the novices feel the breath of death for the first time!

The breath of death is so close.

Zhou Zhihan clenched his fists with both hands, his face pale and ugly, and his eyebrows were tightly twisted together.

He couldn't bear to let these rookies who were still children see this bloody scene. If in peacetime, most of them were high school students, and they were still sleeping in the air-conditioned room at home, which was lazy during the summer vacation, and then they would get up without brushing their teeth or washing their faces.

But the cruel war must allow these children to be exposed to blood, pain, fear and death in advance.

This is a status quo that no one can change.

Most young people in China in this era transform in change and can only grow in suffering.

The returning fighter jets continued to land, with more or less wounds on the fuselage. You can imagine how arduous and dangerous this bombing mission was.

Several flight instructors hurriedly took the trainees who were about to fly a plane alone and took off in the trainee plane and flew thirty kilometers away from the ground observation post, serving as reconnaissance aircraft and early warning aircraft.

All the people at the scene knew the seriousness of the situation the moment the Chinese military aircraft landed - the Japanese aviation army increased their troops, and they changed their initial defense and started to fight back.

Zhou Zhihan knew that the big victory on August 13 and 14 was a major reason for the sudden attack on the Japanese air force, which caught them off guard. The Chinese Air Force also had a numerical advantage, and the Japanese military aircraft mainly had a coordinated cooperation with the defense of the ground Marine Corps, and did not take off and shoot down Chinese fighter jets.

When Chinese military aircraft came to bomb, the Japanese military aircraft took off to fight. The Chinese military aircraft ran out of oil and left, and the Japanese aircraft did not chase after him. This gave the Chinese Air Force an absolute advantage, giving the pilots a sense of superiority of entering and leaving the Japanese army freely and marching.

In fact, this sense of superiority is terrible. It largely makes the Chinese Air Force underestimate the enemy and grow pride.

In addition to the cooperation of ground troops such as the 88th Division, the 87th Division, the 20th Independent Brigade, the Chinese Air Force had an absolute advantage two days before the outbreak of the war.

Since yesterday afternoon, fighter jets flew from Taiwan to support the Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai, the pressure on the Chinese Air Force has increased sharply.

In particular, the first appearance of the Type 96 land attack aircraft (bomber) over China directly rewritten the proportion of air forces between China and Japan.

Previously, the Japanese aviation fleet's fighter jets in China included Type 98 ship attack, Type 95 ship battle, Type 95 water reconnaissance aircraft, Type 96 ship battle and other models.

The Type 96 bomber has an amazing range of 4,000 kilometers, making it the farthest bomber in the world. Taking off from Taiwan can threaten the East China regions of China and other regions such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui, etc. It has a long range and a slow speed, reaching 350 kilometers, which is faster than most fighter jets, with twin engines and 1,800 horsepower. The entire fuselage is made of metal shells, with protective steel plates on the belly and tail of the aircraft. Ordinary machine guns have no lethality to it.

Zhou Zhihan and the rookies who don’t understand medicine can’t help them even if they stay here. There are too many people, but they will get in the way.

There were medical staff and airport ground staff on site.

Staying here will do more harm than good to the growth of these children.

So Zhou Zhihan personally led the rookies to the playground to jog in circles.

Running can relieve stress and release negative emotions.

Now, these rookies are in a low mood to freezing point and need psychological counseling. Otherwise, the bloody scenes I just saw will leave a shadow on their immature psychology, which is very unfavorable for their future growth.

Zhou Zhihan didn't know how to sort out psychologically, but he knew how to boost morale.

After the five-kilometer run, the rookies were panting and their sweat soaked their clothes.

Zhou Zhihan called to stop.

All the novices stood in rows, drooping like eggplant with frost.

Zhou Zhihan was also soaked in sweat. He looked serious and upright, holding the whip in both hands, carrying it behind his back, slowly passing by every rookie with his eyes firm:

"In the war, when guns and cannons fire, some people will be killed and injured, some will be bleeding, some will be piled up like mountains, some will be blood flowing into rivers, some will be defeated, and some will be successful in combat.

The cowards die in war, and the strong survive in artillery fire. The victory of the war always belongs to the strong, and war never sympathizes with the weak.

Look at your cowardly looks like eggplants that are frosted, who do you want to show them? Are you worthy of your parents who gave birth to you and raised you?"

When all the novices heard the word "coward", they immediately became stubborn from the bottom of their hearts.

The rookies instantly stood up.

This is the effect Zhou Zhihan wants.

No young man is willing to admit that he is cowardly.

Zhou Zhihan's eyes were like lightning and shouted sternly: "Everyone, stand at attention, raise his head, straighten his chest, tighten his abdomen, put his hands behind his back, cross his forearms, spread his legs a little wider than his shoulders, don't let me see your cowardly look!"

In an instant, the rookies closed their abdomen, raised their chests, raised their heads, and put their hands behind their backs, their legs slightly spread apart, and a spirit appeared in their eyes again.

"Are you joining the army just to have a full meal?

Your parents gave birth to you just to make you a cannon fodder and a Japanese devil's cannon fodder?

You don’t have your own dreams?

Haven’t you ever thought of returning to your hometown to glory, allowing your parents to live a good life, and allowing your brothers and sisters to no longer be hungry, and you will no longer be poor and freezing, and you will not have the longing to make them proud of you?

Soldiers who don’t want to be generals will never be good soldiers. Among all the arms, only our Air Force pilot is closest to the general’s throne.

If you can survive in war, you are strong, you may become generals, you are important officials of the country, you will be admired by thousands of people, your ancestors will be glorified by you, and your descendants will be proud of you.

If you want to survive in war, you must have the courage like a lion.

Remember, you are now Chinese Air Force pilots, you are the pride of heaven. What Japanese pilots can do, you can do, and what I can do, you can do the same.

At present, there are only two ways to choose."

Rookies listen intently!

"First, find a way to escape from the Air Force, be a deserter, and then be caught and rectified on the spot. From then on, your family will be shamed because of you. They will live in the world and never look up again. They will be stabbed in the backbone and be scolded for the rest of their lives!"

Zhou Zhihan said, looking around everyone: "Is this what you are willing to do?"

"No! Sir!"

All the novices said almost in unison.

Zhou Zhihan nodded secretly, and each of them was so motivated and not timid.

If Chinese teenagers are strong, China will be strong!

"The second way is to be a brave soldier. When facing the invaders, you dare to draw your sword, dare to shoot down the invaders' fighter planes in the air, cut off the invaders' heads, and write your glory and legend!

Regardless of whether you can survive in this war, you are all heroes of the country, and your relatives will be respected by the world. You survive in the war, and they will be glorious. If you die in the war, they will still be glorious!"

All the young men held their heads and their chests high, their eyes becoming brighter. What the chief instructor said was like a loud thunder, splitting the haze in their hearts.

Among them, many students only become soldiers for a meal, and the words of the chief instructor directly revealed their dreams.

Many people have dreams and ideals, but they don’t know how to implement them and how to make their dreams and ideals come true.

So timid.

So scared.

The two paths given by the chief instructor are: one is life, one is death, one is shame, and the other is glory. If you choose glory, you can only be brave.

At this moment, all the rookies chose to be brave!

Zhou Zhihan walked back and forth between the students, pointing out the direction for them: "If the young man is strong, China will be strong; if you are strong, China will be strong! If you are strong, your family will be glorious!"

Zhou Zhihan asked loudly: "Now, tell me, do you choose glory or to be a deserter!"

"glory!"

"Sir!"

The rookies are determined: "We choose glory! Sir!"

Zhou Zhihan nodded and his eyebrows relaxed.

At 10 o'clock, several school officials came to Nanjing Air Force Headquarters.

On August 13 and 14, the Chinese Air Force won one after another. All walks of life in Nanjing were inspired. Major newspapers across the country rushed to publish them to boost morale!

Patriots from all walks of life donated money to contribute to the country's anti-Japanese war.

Therefore, the principal ordered the Air Force Headquarters to reward all Air Force soldiers who participated in the war.
