Chapter 63 Fighting for the Sky
The Arabs on the Mediterranean coast rode camels on the desert simple road that had just been built. The bodies of the Arabs riding on camels were swaying leisurely as the camels moved.
If they were tourists, they would probably be immersed in this leisure and tranquility.
However, when machine civilization appears in the desert, leisure is just a surface of patience. As for tranquility, when groups of planes pass through the sky, tranquility no longer exists.
The disturbed Allah man looked up and looked at the planes, which were characterized by the fact that they were like the United Nations.
In the sky, groups of fighter jets with military emblems from various countries on the wings were swept across the vast land of yellow sand. The Arabs glanced at it, ignored it, continued to lower their heads, and continued to "leisurely".
As a weak person, as a country that has been separated from the Ottoman but has not truly independent, except for the guns in its own hands. No soldier, including any gun, will no one work hard for their true "freedom" except for aiming at their interests.
They knew that Allah had abandoned this land full of sin!
The planes in the sky took off from the Mediterranean and were about to pass through the Suez Canal. Pilots from various countries flying in the sky couldn't help but scold the British.
"These damn John Bulls, they added the number of fighter jets on Maltese, but they did not conduct long-range patrols. It's so outrageous that we have to try to keep the fleet safe while passing through the canal!"
Although the pilots complained, they had to carry out orders and take off.
As pilots of the "European Joint Fleet", they had to do so. According to the news from intelligence officers from colonies of various countries along the Red Sea coast, the "Hawkeye iii" airship of the Chinese Federal Defense Forces has begun to take off from "Butterfly City". The destination is unknown, and it is estimated that it may be intended to be unfavorable to the "European Joint Fleet".
"The Air Force of the Federation of China, God, let these birds of prey in the air stay away from us!"
The naval aviation pilot of the "European Joint Fleet" prayed deep in his unknown heart.
As the new generation of pilots after the war, the battle between the "Satan Eagle" - Tang Yunyang and the "Red Baron" - Richthofen over the Western Front has long been familiar to them. In addition to envy, they have already begun to worry secretly.
In the battles later, there might be a fierce and elegant hero like the "Red Baron" - Richterhoven. There are also thousands of elite pilots from the "Red Hunting Squad" educated by him. The news from Russia is that the ratio of the "Red Hunting Squad" to the flying teams of other countries is 1:5.
Through this ratio, you can imagine what kind of air battle will begin below. Moreover, this bloody air battle is also an inevitable battle.
If the European Union forces want to pass the Suez Canal safely, they must obtain air supremacy completely. Without air supremacy fleets, they will not be able to enter the Red Sea safely, and then they will not be able to decide the fate of the Jibdie and ultimately determine the fate of the East. In particular, if the air base of the Jibdie (Butterfly City) is not destroyed, the reinforcements of the Chinese Federation will arrive continuously due to the huge group of airships.
Indeed, the Federation of China sent the "Hawkeye iii" airship to fly to the Middle East. The colonial governments of various countries in East Africa and the Middle East guaranteed neutrality and did not provide airports, etc. Under negotiations, the Federation of China also guaranteed not to attack the territories of these countries.
Relatively speaking, although the "European Joint Force" lacks the ground foothold, it also lacks the opportunity for the Chinese Federation to take advantage of the opportunity to control the countries along the Red Sea coast and on both sides of the Suez Canal. Of course, this will cause the air force of the "European Joint Force" to suffer a large loss, but at least the colonies on the ground are not at all robbed.
Obviously, this is all due to Tang Yunyang's reputation as the "problem bandit". As for the losses of soldiers and aircraft, compared with his habitual actions, it is too few.
Behind the clunky and slow-moving "Hawkeye iii" airship, a "Whale" class aerial refueling airship. Outside them are the "Flying Front" fighter jets equipped by the Chinese Federal Flight Team. There is no problem with them flying with the secondary fuel tank.
Air warfare is launched in the Red Sea.
"Distance 300 directions..."
The information sent from the "Hawkeye iii" airship was transmitted from the microphone of the aviation guide officer to the ears of the pilot of the "Flying Front" fighter jet when the enemy plane was discovered. Almost at the same time, all the "Flying Front" threw away the secondary fuel tank at the same time, shaking the wings and flew towards their respective shelving. The "Whale"-class refueling airship started to speed and then turned away.
Unlike other countries' escort aircraft, the "Flying Blade" does not provide intensive protection for the "Hawkeye iii". After all, there are "intensive arrays" with 10 dual 12.7mm rotating machine guns. The huge load capacity of the airship ensures sufficient ammunition supply for the "intensive array" module, which makes all fighter jets that intend to attack the airship feel like they are conducting a suicide operation.
The "Red Hunting" team, which advocates "free air combat", will not use the cunning of "the godfather in the air" (this is Richterhoven's nickname in the Whampoa Military Academy), the "Red Hunting Squad" set a trap for the pilots of the "European Joint Force" who came to attack.
The naval aviation forces of the "European Joint Fleet" who were ignorant, flew through hundreds of kilometers of airspace and were already dizzy when they looked at the desert reflecting red sunlight. The long-term flight also increased the fatigue of the pilots. Although most pilots wore sunglasses, the white sunshine above their heads still made them very tired.
The most disgusting thing is that the only radio that solves the fatigue problem has completely lost its effect since it entered the interference range of "Hawkeye iii". The unique "noise" of radio waves has long made them very uncomfortable. If it weren't for the battlefield, in order to get commands that may appear at any time, no one would have worn the earphones that can cover people's ears and sweat.
The flowery eyes looked into the distance, and there was the huge hull of the "Hawkeye iii" airship. What puzzled everyone was that there was no escort around it.
"Enemy... side..."
The occasional half-word call from the noise made the pilots nervous. They raised their faces full of oil and sweat, and widened their eyes to see the sun as soon as possible. That was the place where enemy planes were most likely to appear.

At this time, the "Flying Blade" that was flying flat against the sea surface also pulled up the mechanism, and their engines exerted the maximum power. In addition to sneak attacks from the direction of the sun, another fleet of aircraft flying at an ultra-low altitude on the sea surface was the real threat.
After all, the front is the "work" they can go home after finishing their work, and the Sun is the most commonly mentioned sneak attack position in textbooks. However, this direction on the sea surface did not attract anyone's attention.
"These rookies must be looking at the sun with their heads raised. The godfather said it well. If others are often fooled by 'different times', the battlefield in the air will not be too boring!"
Just as the pilots of the "European Joint Fleet" were still trying to raise their heads to the sun, the group of sneak attackers led by Wang Anyang climbed up from the sea.
"call……"
The sound of the 4-tube 12.7mm rotary machine guns when firing is not like the ordinary machine guns. Due to the high rate of fire, their shooting time is very short. However, the dense bullets are much more accurate than those of ordinary machine guns.
Just one sneak attack caused the pilots of the "European Combined Fleet" who were still planning to fight against enemy planes coming from the direction of the sun to suffer a great loss. With just one sneak attack, more than a dozen aircraft were shot and dragged black smoke into the sea.
Suddenly, it seemed as if it had been agreed. The radio interference stopped in an instant, and the command and help sounded immediately in the pilots of the "European Joint Fleet".
"We were attacked from below... Help... Help..."
Subconsciously, the surviving pilots looked down together. Unfortunately, the "Flying Bird" who completed the attack mission at this time had already flew far away with the strange sound of the engine. But at this time, what made the pilots of the "European Joint Fleet" frightened was that the "Flying Bird" that dived from the sun opened fire again.
The excessively fast rate of fire has caused the tracer to form a straight line.
"God bless...God saves me..."
In the headphones that had just resumed communication, such sounds sounded. Immediately, in order to avoid attacks, the surviving pilot tilted his wings and the entire formation was completely dispersed. At this time, it is the most common occurrence on the battlefield of time and space combat, and it is also the time when the "Red Hunting Squad" favorite "dog fighting" begins.
