After lighting the fuse in the lock, the eagle looked back at the hanging basket and jumped in.
After falling more than twenty meters, the eagle opened his parachute backpack and controlled the parachute to fly aside.
Half a minute later, there was a loud roar in the air.
Airships and steam engines can be said to represent the highest level of craftsmanship in Jinchuan at present, and they play a huge role.
In fact, the technical content of steam engines is not very high. If an outsider obtains it, it is not difficult to imitate it.
In order to prevent this technology from leaking out, Wan Heming and Zuo Zhiyuan each installed a grenade under the airship's steam engine.
This grenade is a special delay grenade. After being ignited, it takes half a minute to explode.
The fuse that ignites the grenade is hidden in the lock, and the key to open the lock is worn by the commander of each airship.
In the event of an emergency that may cause the airship to crash, the escorts can parachute, but before parachuting, they must light the delay grenade.
This will ensure that steam engine technology will not fall into the hands of the enemy.
The eagle looked up and saw the airship he had just boarded. At this time, the gondola was already ablaze with fire.
After the light gas contained in the balloon above the flame was burned by the fire, its volume quickly increased, and soon the balloon burst, bursting and falling.
Ever since this airship was built, Eagle has been in charge.
For more than half a year, the airship carried the eagle and flew over thousands of mountains and rivers. To say that there is no emotion would be false.
But now the eagle has to destroy it with his own hands.
Looking at the crashing airship, Eagle felt very uncomfortable.
But as a veteran, Eagle knows now is not the time to feel sad.
Force yourself to calm down and look around while adjusting your parachute.
At this time, Hai Dongqing was still frantically attacking the airship balloon in the air.
Fortunately, the escorts on the other airships came to their senses after seeing what Eagle did.
The commanders on each airship all imitated the eagle, ordering the escorts in the gondolas to parachute, and then ignited self-destruct grenades.
For a moment, parachutes were everywhere in the sky, and grenades exploded one after another.
More and more airships are breaking up and falling in the sky.
There were many unlucky escorts whose parachutes were broken by blown steam engine parts, and their descent speed became faster and faster.
There is nothing the Eagle can do about it.
You can at least survive by parachuting, but without parachuting, you can only be defeated one by one by Hai Dongqing.
After the balloon was scratched by Hai Dongqing's sharp claws, the airship would fall from high altitude to the ground within ten seconds, leaving them with no chance of escape.
The Eagle's parachute was also broken by a steam engine part. Fortunately, the parachute was sewn in pieces. Although breaking one piece would speed up the descent, it would not be fatal. With the Eagle's skills, it could land successfully.
But at this time, the eagle felt very heavy.
It was not because the parachute was broken, nor because the airship was gone, but because he could see that these two sea turtles had obviously been artificially trained to target the airship.
The Eagle couldn't help but worry about the future of the flying team.
But before he could think of what to do, he suddenly heard shouts from below.
Looking down, I saw a group of soldiers wearing Jin uniforms rushing out of the ravine below.
Many airships crashed on this mountain. After the steam engines on the airships were broken, the coal and kerosene under the boilers fell everywhere.
After the group of soldiers rushed out, some of them used branches to beat the flames to extinguish the fire, while others began to pick up the parts of steam engines and heavy crossbows that fell around.
The eagle saw this scene in the air and was very anxious.
Because many of the airships on the ground were caught and fell by Hai Dongqing, the escorts above did not have time to light the self-destruct grenades.
It is very likely that the steam engines on these airships were not damaged. It would be terrible if they fell into the hands of the other party.
The eagle's first thought was to land down and inspect the steam engine, preferably blowing up all the parts.
But the next second he gave up the idea.
Because the number of soldiers who rushed out alone was over a hundred, and there must be even more who didn't rush out.
After Hai Dongqing's attack and various accidents during parachuting, the total number of parachutes floating in the air at this time did not exceed thirty.
The most important thing is that the Eagles and the others are all pilots. Their main training items are flying and parachuting. They don't pay much attention to combat. Most of the pilots are not even equipped with black knives, only a crossbow and a saber.
In this case, they will definitely not be able to defeat each other.
Let alone destroying the steam engine by then, the chances of them surviving are very small!
In fact, after participating in so many battles, Eagle is not very afraid of death, but he doesn't want to die in such a painful way, and is even more afraid that Jin Feng doesn't know about Hai Dongqing's existence, causing more airships to be attacked!
Thinking of this, the eagle immediately adjusted the parachute, took out the telescope from his arms, and observed the ground.
Only then did he realize that in addition to the group of soldiers who had rushed out on the ground, there were more soldiers hiding in another valley.
The valley is in a secluded location, and there are many bushes. If the eagle didn't have binoculars, it might not be able to see the soldiers hiding behind the bushes and rocks.
The most terrible thing is that the valley is downwind, and almost all the parachutes of the escorts are flying in that direction with the wind.
"Don't go there, everyone, there's an ambush over there!"
The eagle continued to adjust the angle of the parachute while waving its arms and roaring.
But the surrounding environment was so chaotic that the other escorts couldn't hear his reminder.
The eagle was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but there was nothing he could do.
"Brothers, I'm sorry, I have to find a way to go back and inform my husband!"
The eagle gritted his teeth and tried his best to control the parachute and fly to the west.
There are so many people ambushed here. It is obvious that the enemy has long been eyeing the flying team and knows that they will disperse here every day.
With the character of King Jin, once he takes action, he will definitely not be left alive.
There is a cliff four or five hundred meters away to the west. Only by flying over that cliff can the eagle possibly escape!
Facts have proved that Eagle's guess was correct. When the parachuting escorts landed, a large number of Jin soldiers immediately poured out from around them.
The escorts were surrounded before they even had time to untie their parachutes.
Most of the escorts knew that if they fell into the hands of King Jin, life would be worse than death. Therefore, after discovering that there was no possibility of breaking out, more than the vast majority of the escorts fired the grenades on their waists and chose to die together with the enemy!
The eagle looked back at the valley, and its eyes turned red!
Every explosion means that a comrade with whom we have been together day and night has left!
"Brothers, sir, I will definitely avenge you!"
The eagle saluted in the direction of the valley and tried its best to control the parachute over the cliff.
