Chapter 27 Fire and Rain in the Sky
After throwing the "Meteorite Ii", the airship in the sky did not immediately leave the panic gaze of the soldiers of Duncanniz's flight team under the flying team. If the dense array on the airship was fired at the fastest rate of fire, it would fall down 48,000 12.7mm bullets per minute.
It is particularly important to note that this is just a rain of bullets pouring from an airship. If it is 50 airships, then this situation can only be called a rain of fire from the sky.
The "Aviation Standard" ammunition belt mixed with armor-piercing bombs and tracer bombs. When bullets are sprinkled from the sky, due to the rotation and swing of the spherical "denominate array", the bullets flying across the sky fell from the sky like rain of fire.
Every counterattacking tongue on the ground and every plane that intends to take off are all targets of these fire rains.
The soldiers of Deniz could not understand how the airships in the sky knew their specific location. Even if they were hiding in the bunker, they could not avoid the blow of fire rains in the sky.
Indeed, this kind of shooting is terrifying. 12.7mm machine gun bullets can easily penetrate and ignite civil fortifications, and they are scattered from above the sky with the sound of death.
As someone once described, people or planes on the ground were probably not hit by bullets, they were torn to pieces by piles of bullets.
The first thing that was hit was the anti-aircraft artillery positions on the ground. They were plowed by the "fire rain" with hundreds of thousands of large-caliber bullets per minute.
When the "fire rain from the sky" left the position, the entire position seemed to be attacked by hail. The ground was full of pits chiseled with bullets, and almost all the equipment and personnel were completely debris.
This is no longer a force that people can imagine. A bloody scene is also happening above the airport.
The flesh and blood rolled in a purgatory made of dense bullets. The plane that forced to run and take off was directly smashed by the dense array of 12.7 mm in the middle of the flight.
At this time, it is impossible to say that the Russian soldiers have a natural tenacity.
Otherwise, when their bravery was stimulated by Stalingrad, they used their flesh and blood to block the German armor torrent, creating an almost impossible myth.
This also makes almost all the armies of countries have a natural fear of street fighting in cities.
Under the attack of the airship group in the sky, the elite "volunteer army" under Deniz was still fighting stubbornly. As long as the body had not been torn to pieces, the Mosinna rifle in his hand and the machine gun he had set up had no intention of stopping.
Although their behavior often attracts more dense "fire rain" in the sky, they are still trying to reverse the whole situation.
The archer gritted his teeth and was excited by the tragic situation in the airport. In his hand, Ma Kemi, with a shield, was placed on the chest wall, and his heavy level gun body pointed to the sky.
The sky was now covered with red ballistic trajectories formed by bullets, and groups of "meteorites ii" glided in this sky full of death traps.
At this time, the excellent safety of the "Meteorite ii" is reflected. Although its thin wall panels have almost no protective effect, the advantage of this glider is that even without any power, its rotor still plays a buffering role while falling.
Although this will not prevent the people inside from being harmed, the possibility of death is greatly reduced.
The "Meteorite ii" has no fuel system used by the aircraft at all. Even if it hits the engine, there is still no risk of fire.
After all, gas leaks into strong airflow and cannot form a fire source at all. In addition, for carbon monoxide cylinders, a simple tempering protector makes it completely impossible to catch fire.
Compared with the "Meteorite ii", airships with relatively slow speed are larger shooting targets. After completing the airdrop mission, they quickly rose into the sky due to the reduction of load.
During this process, they used the dense array on the boat to provide suppressing firepower to the "Meteorite ii".
Almost all the counterattack forces on the ground point to them in the sky. In a sense, due to their attraction, there are much less attacks on the ground against the "meteorite ii".
Compared with airships where hydrogen is a filled gas, using helium has an incomparable advantage. It is an inert gas itself and can even be used to extinguish fires.
Even if the "Buckingham" bullet hits its airbag, it still makes it just a leak. Even if the incendiary bomb hits it, the flames generated will be extinguished by the leaking gas.
So even if the opponent's anti-aircraft machine gun was briefly greeted, even if the airbag was punched with bullet holes, the airship still flew in the air under the timely repair and blockage of the crew.
It is just a ballast or other abandoned thing that is falling like raindrops on the airship, and the power to boost the propeller is maximized.
While the airship attracted most ground firepower because of its huge body, the fleet of aircraft composed of "meteorite ii" became closer and closer to the ground.
"Don't panic, keep calm..."
Li Du held the joystick tightly in his hand and stared at the landing place he chose in front of him. At the same time, he shouted loudly at the co-pilot beside him.
This comes entirely from an instinct. I believe that anyone who listens to the sound of being hit by bullets or shrapnel in the cabin will be so nervous that he will be dying of nervousness when he hears the violent sound of bullets or shrapnel on the fuselage.
If you look around, you can see that not all "meteorite ii" can land safely. A meteorite, which is obviously dead (i.e., the two highest-ranking officers on the plane), dragged thick smoke and landed straight towards the airport.
“No gliding, there is no safety!”
When the light infantry officers were training to drive the "Meteorite ii", they were told that only when the "Meteorite ii" was falling rapidly, they could maintain a flexible gliding curve so that they could be as far away from the firepower on the ground as possible.
While Li Du looked at these scenes, the desire to shout in his heart became even stronger, so he gritted his teeth and vowed not to make any sound again.
The speed of the "Meteorite ii" can be said to be straight and fast. Although it is inevitable to be impacted by the landing. However, when it is about to land, the flames sprayed by the recoil rocket roll up dust at the right time. Not only did it buffer, but the dust on the ground is raised, and it also provided cover for the soldiers in the meteorite.
These recoil rockets are another major feature of the "Meteorite II".
When the altitude reaches a certain value, the small rocket engine installed at the four corners of the cabin will start automatically in time. This is the final counter-shock force. The main reason for use is that even if both drivers are killed, the vertically falling "meteorite ii" still has an 80% chance of landing safely.
This is not a new thing, it is just a shock absorption method that is often used when parachute tanks.
Behind the dust, what rushed out were soldiers in camouflage military uniforms. After experiencing the thrilling landing time, when they rushed out of the cabin, they all had some compromise and anger.
But they did not immediately join the battle, but instead guarded the fuselage of the "Meteorite ii". After all, they had landed, which can be said to be temporarily safe. But it can also be said that they had no way out at all.
If the next battle is not victory, then it will definitely die.
Fortunately, they were attacking the field airport, and there were not too many obstacles on the flat land. The soldiers who rushed out of the cabin immediately fell to the ground and leaned on their backpacks to guard the surroundings.
Then, after a little rectification, they were divided into small groups to attack the targets they had planned.
If there are no casualties of the officers in the same plane, everything will naturally be easy. If there are casualties, the designated replacement personnel will immediately lead the remaining people to complete the task.
The safe landing made Li Du breathe a long sigh. No matter how safe this "meteorite ii" was, he still couldn't help but tremble nervously when he landed.
In particular, it was not until this time that he felt that in order not to make himself scream, his teeth were sore. Until he returned to the solid earth, this tension turned into a stream of heat and spread throughout his body, and sweat came out.
He reached out and wiped his face, and his face, which had been painted with oil paint, was even more fascinating. He held his weapon in his hand, turned around and walked towards the cabin door through the cabin door.

At this time, the sun was shooting into the cabin from these small holes. With the light, Li Du saw the bodies of two soldiers lying on the floor. One of the black soldiers who looked quite young was lying there with his head tilted, and his blood was everywhere in the cabin.
Li Du lowered his body and looked at his wound. He probably might have been hit by the artery on the neck. Blood was sprayed out of his neck due to pressure, and he might have died of ischemia in a few seconds.
Judging from the scattered bandages on his body and the black blood marks on his military uniform, his comrades and military doctors had tried their best, but this was an injury that could not be done on the ground, let alone in the sky that was attacked at any time.
After biting his teeth, he knew that the mission and responsibilities of the soldier in front of him had ended, and he used his life to prove his loyalty and courage.
Li Du fiddled with his weapons in his hand, and he understood that it was time to see what others did.
