Chapter 88 Leaving

() After the two P-51s of the Tenth Air Force entangled with Sasaki's Ki-43 for a while, they suddenly gave up the attack and quickly climbed to a high altitude.

Sasaki, who was miraculously unscathed in the series of attacks just now, was not happy about it. Because this move only showed one thing, that is, American reinforcements were coming. Now the American fighter planes are pulling up to prepare for the coming arrival.

The large fleet of aircraft indicates the target, and searches for the few Ki-43s that have just left and probably haven't had time to get far.

Sure enough, a moment later, a large group of P-51s appeared in Sasaki's sight. At a rough count, there were probably 20 of them.

"It's over." A wave of despair welled up in Sasaki's heart. In the face of such a scale, all skills were a joke. Two Ki-43s could not compete with such a fleet anyway.

However, not all of these planes pounced on him. After they reunited with the original two fighters, they separated 6 planes and pounced on them, while the others chased in the direction in which the rookies' Ki-43 turned.

past.

"Takeda, follow me!" During the entanglement just now, Sasaki had been paying attention to the surrounding environment. At that time, he noticed that there was a deep valley a little to the west. For the ki-43 circling out,

Said, this is simply a natural refuge. In the battle just now, Sasaki kept an eye on it, retreated while fighting, and gradually retreated to the sky above this valley. Now when he saw 6 American planes coming towards him,

He immediately got in with his wingman.

Perhaps due to lack of fuel, those P-51s circled briefly over the valley and then left. Of course, Sasaki in the valley had no time to take care of this. Even because of the obstruction of the valley, he could not understand from the radio those ki who had retreated first.

-43Whether you escaped pursuit.

By the time Sasaki flew out of the valley, those P-51s had dispersed. When he returned to the airport, he learned that except for them, none of the fighter jets that had gone out today had returned.



Since this battle, for a whole week, no plane has taken off from Myitkyina Airport. It seems that in a short time, the 64th Group will no longer have the ability to block the hump route. So this trip

The operation was a complete success for Ron. All that was left was for the pilots of the 10th Air Force and the 14th Air Force to summarize their experiences and lessons, summarize the relevant records of this air battle, and bring them back to

"Reverse Cross" studied.

According to the schedule, Ron first flew to Kunming to participate in the summary of the Fourteenth Air Force, then returned to India with their relevant information to participate in the summary of the Tenth Air Force, and then returned to the United States to report to General Arnold.

Different from the last time he came to Kunming, last time he was short on time and had heavy tasks, so Ron didn't have the chance to walk around the streets of Kunming. He also didn't have the chance to go to the tourist attractions he visited in his previous life to remember the future. But this time, Ron

I have a lot of free time. I can run around in Kunming.

Borrowed a Willys Jeep from Chennault, who also lent him a driver, a guard and a translator for free. Although Ron felt that he didn't need a translator at all, considering that the translator was Chinese, he was said to be very interested in Kunming.

Understanding, Ron took him with him as if he was a tour guide.

This tour guide is very competent. Every time he goes to a scenic spot, he can tell the relevant stories vividly in English. His English level can put most Americans to shame.

After chatting, Ron learned that the translator named Mao Xionghui turned out to be a teaching assistant at Southwest Associated University. He had studied art in the United States for a period of time. The year before last, the country put forward a slogan, saying "

"One inch of rivers, one inch of blood, one hundred thousand young people, one hundred thousand troops", called on aspiring young people to join the army and serve the country. Full of dreams of becoming the Yue Wu Mu of the new era, Mao Xionghui joined the army. Then because of his good English, he was sent to the Flying Tigers as a translator

, later the Flying Tigers were reorganized into the Fourteenth Air Force of the US Army. He was supposed to go back to the Air Force. But good translators were rare, so the Americans called and he stayed there as a translator.

Ron visited Kunming many years later, but those Kunmings and the Kunming in front of him were completely different cities. The streets of Kunming in front of him were narrow, and even on the main roads, it was very troublesome when two cars met and missed each other.

The road conditions cannot be compared with those of later generations. It is uneven and bumpy in a jeep. Most of the streets are lined with low and dark wooden bungalows, and there are people everywhere on the street who are as thin as skeletons.

A beggar or a naked person who looks like a beggar. Whenever one or several rickshaws stop in front of a shopping mall or a theater, one or several fashionably dressed women or men get off.

When the time comes, these people will gather around and beg like this:

"Sir (Mrs.), please be kind. I often haven't eaten for several days..."

At this time, people from shopping malls or theaters will come and push them away.

"Go, go! Don't be stuck here!"

Then the gentlemen (ladies) will walk into shopping malls or theaters with elegant steps full of "Republic of China style" that are admired by countless petty bourgeoisie. They will also use a contemptuous tone while walking,

Expressing dissatisfaction with the hungry people who blocked their way and disturbed their enjoyment.

In addition to seeing the authentic "Republic of China style", Ron also has a personal mission. That is to reward his stomach and eat a delicious Chinese meal that is purely natural, pollution-free, and free of fakes.

Mao Xionghui took Ron to a three-story hotel, where it was said that there were the best chefs in Kunming, the best service and the most authentic Xuanwei ham.

Seeing a "Friendly Person" coming, and it seemed that he was a "Friendly Person" of considerable status. A manager immediately rushed over to the store to provide service. So the translator started talking with the manager. Their conversation

, Ron immediately discovered that bringing a translator was a very wise decision, because he didn't understand a word what these two people were talking about.

"Yes, it will be a long time before Mandarin is popularized." Ron thought,

After a while, the manager took them to a street-facing accommodation on the second floor, and then a waiter brought the menu. Ron and the others were ordering under Mao Xionghui's guidance when they suddenly heard a gunshot from the street below.

Then there was another shot, and then the waiter standing in front of the window fell down. The shot just now hit the unfortunate waiter's knee.

At this time, the gunfire below became more and more intensive, and the gunfire was also mixed with various panicked cries. Then, several more bullets flew over, shattering the glass window.

At this time, Ron and the others all pulled out their pistols and squatted down. Jim, who was the guard, also opened the bolt of the M1 carbine. The manager lay directly on the floor.

However, the gunshots did not seem to be directed at them, and there were police and military police everywhere in Kunming. After a while, the gunshots subsided. However, there were still sounds of crying from downstairs and on the streets.

.

After a while, after confirming that the gunshots had stopped, the manager got up again, straightened his clothes, and helped the waiter who was shot in the knee out. After a while, he came back to apologize to Ron and the others, because just now

In the shootout, many people downstairs were shot innocently. Therefore, the hotel cannot continue to operate today and must close immediately.

The plan to have a delicious meal of the most authentic Xuanwei ham was ruined. When he went downstairs, Ron saw large pools of blood on the stairs and at the door.

"What's going on? Japanese spies? Gang fighting?" Ron called Mao Xionghui over and asked him to inquire. After a while, Mao Xionghui came back, his face full of anger, but no matter how Ron asked, he just

He refused to say anything, only saying, "It's too embarrassing and I can't say it." Later, when I was asked about it urgently, I dropped this sentence: "You will know when the newspaper comes out tomorrow."

For safety reasons, Ron and the others stopped wandering around Kunming. Everyone just returned to the airport hungry.

On the next day, Ron, who was curious, began to read the newspapers of the day. The next day's newspapers did not mention this matter, but two newspapers left a blank space on the front page. There was also a tabloid.

In a very inconspicuous position, there is a vague mention of this sentence: "Miss Kong Er and Master Yun met again on the streets of Kunming."

"Holy crap! It turns out to be this weird flower!" Ron was shocked.

When the Kuomintang government was still in Nanjing, Miss Kong Er was driving for a ride. She violated traffic rules and was scolded by the police. In anger, she actually pulled out a pistol and shot the policeman to death on the spot. It is said that it became popular in Nanjing later.

In one sentence: "Don't be arrogant, be careful when you go out and run into Miss Kong Er."

Later, on December 9, 1941, when Hong Kong was about to fall, the Nationalist Government sent a plane to pick up a group of important officials. At that time, it was the last plane to take off from Hong Kong, the "Air Palace".

Time was of the essence, so the personnel confirmed to be picked up by the plane were all drafted by Chen Buili and personally reviewed and approved by Chang Kaishen. All those who could get on the plane were important and important figures.

But the most prestigious ones are of course Mrs. Kong Song Ailing and her children (Kong Lingjie and Kong Lingjun). They also have priority on boarding the plane and are the first batch to get on.

After Miss Kong Er arranged for her mother, she found that her two foreign dogs had no seats (note, it was not that there was no place to stay, it was just that there were no seats). She looked around the cabin and saw that in addition to the Kong family, an old couple also got on the plane. Miss Kong Er

Without any explanation, he immediately stepped forward and ordered the two of them to give up their seats to the two dogs.

Who are this old couple? Chen Jitang, the "King of Nantian" back then. His name was at the top of the list of evacuated personnel. The old man probably never dreamed that with his worth, he would be forced by the little girl to give up his seat to a dog. First of all,

Arguing with reason and trying to establish friendship were of no use. Miss Kong Er waved her hand, and a group of followers rushed up and forced the old man and old lady down. Then Miss Kong Er stood at the hatch and shouted, "Who is it?"

"No one is allowed to go up." At that time, there were still a lot of important people below, including committee member Zhong Yang, Chen Ce who had followed Sun Yat-sen in his early years, media tycoon Hu Zhengzhi, etc., but no one could climb up under Miss Kong Er's riding boots.

Later, Hu Zhengzhi followed the refugees and fled to Guangxi, suffering a lot of hardships. Chen Ce and Chen Jitang disguised themselves as smugglers, and Chen Ce almost died. Qing, Miss Kong Er also had a quarrel with the third son of Yunlong (Chairman of Yunnan Province).

A gunfight broke out in the park, killing and injuring many passers-by.

However, this girl is a hoarder and a master of short-selling and short-selling. She has always been Mrs. Chang Kaishen’s investment adviser. Perhaps due to some economic reasons, this girl came here again. Then she met again on the same road.

I fell in love with an old enemy, and the result was...
