Chapter 45 The Bombing Without Results

Above the field station, according to the tower's instructions, we found a weak spot in the clouds, raised the nose of the aircraft, and the two fighters plunged into the clouds.

On a rainy day, the clouds are very thick, and you can see nothing in front of you. Also affected by the airflow, the fuselage is a bit bumpy, making it much more difficult to fly through the clouds than usual.

After a lot of effort, we climbed to an altitude of 11,000 meters. Suddenly our eyes lit up. The fiery red sun hung high in the southwest behind us, spreading its rays of light.

Yang Luo glanced at the instrument panel, then adjusted the course and flew towards the target location at cruising speed.

The longitude and latitude of the target have already been known in the flight briefing room. Even if the view is blocked by clouds, the approximate location can be found using only airborne instruments, not to mention the assistance of ground radar.

In the air, instruments are equivalent to the pilot's eyes.

No one in the tower spoke, everyone was concentrating on doing their own thing, and the sound of typing on the keyboard was heard one after another. Hu Zhongming kept his eyes on the radar, watching the small dots representing the two fighter jets move on the screen.

Finally, the small dot on the screen reached the predetermined position. Hu Zhongming picked up the intercom and said: "802, 801, tower call, the target is directly in front of you and below, prepare to lower the altitude and enter the target area, over."

"801 received, over." Yang Luo said, looking down below him and seeing nothing, not even the clouds.

The thick clouds are still blocking the view, as if they are a wall, separating the sky and the earth into two worlds. Above the clouds is bright and sunny, while below the clouds is dark and windy and rainy.

"801, follow me, I found a crack in the clouds." Ye Jianlong's voice sounded in the headset.

Yang Luo raised his head and looked in the direction of Ye Jianlong. He saw J-7g No. 802 making a big bend and heading towards the three o'clock direction. He quickly turned the steering wheel to follow.

When we arrived, we discovered that a huge gap had opened in the clouds, and the sun was shining down on the earth.

Ye Jianlong has already driven the No. 802 fighter plane into the crack and is swooping down along the crack.

Arriving under the clouds, Yang Luo looked at the altimeter, which read one thousand two hundred meters.

Fortunately, it is much higher than the clouds above the station, and it is easier to find the target to be bombed at an altitude of 1,000 meters.

"Tower, two of our aircraft have arrived over the target area and are searching for the target. It's over." Ye Jianlong reported to the tower.

"Tower received, pay attention to the height, completed."

"802 Got it, over."

Yang Luo also said hurriedly: "801 understand, it's over."

At this time, we can only rely on visual search, and radar is of no use at all. If it is a reconnaissance aircraft, it can use the reconnaissance pod to find the target location.

The fighter plane crossed a high peak, and Yang Luo couldn't help but take a breath.

A mountain peak ahead looks like it has been cut in half with a knife. Half of it has been moved away, and only the remaining half is still standing in its original position. It is riddled with holes and a mess. These are the mines left behind when digging coal.

The other half has slipped into the river, cutting off a river dozens of meters wide. The river water is blocked and has nowhere to go. It gathers more and more, eventually forming a huge lake. And there is a steady stream of river water flowing in from the upper reaches.

Keep raising the water level.

"Tower, 801 has found the target, please ask for instructions to attack." Yang Luo reported to the tower.

"801, how is the situation?" Hu Zhongming asked.

Yang Luo was silent for a while and said: "Half of the mountain has slipped into the river. It is very thick. I don't know if four ammunition can destroy it."

Hu Zhongming said calmly: "You attack first. It's really not possible. There are still four ammunition on the 802."

During the contact between the two, Ye Jianlong also flew over. Seeing the situation in front of him, he said: "Tower, let me hit. The mountain that fell into the river is too thick. I can only hit one point. If the explosion points are scattered, it will definitely not be possible."

destroy."

"No, let 801 attack first. If 801 fails, you attack again." Hu Zhongming rejected Ye Jianlong's proposal.

Reduce altitude and speed, pass through the middle of the river, and look for an attack position.

"Tower, I have found the attack point. I want to know if this area is full of mines?" Yang Luo asked.

Hu Zhongming affirmed: "This large area is full of mines, but it has been closed down now. There are no personnel present. You can attack with confidence."

"Tower, I'm not afraid of anyone, but I'm afraid that the mountain opposite won't be able to withstand the attack and will collapse, causing the attack to fail." Yang Luo explained.

The headset did not give an immediate reply, and seemed to be discussing with someone. After waiting for a while, Hu Zhongming said: "Besides this, do you have any better way? Let's try to attack first."

It passed by again, keeping the terrain features in mind, then pulled up, climbed to a higher altitude, and said at the same time: "Tower, I'm ready to attack, over."

"801, you can attack, it's over." Hu Zhongming replied.

Ye Jianlong on the other side flew his fighter plane away from this area, leaving the airspace to Yang Luo so that he could conduct a dive attack.

After obtaining a sufficient height, Yang Luo turned to press the stick and dive, aiming at the selected target and diving at high speed. If he wanted to strike accurately, the height of the bomb should not be too high, otherwise the accuracy would not be guaranteed.

Yang Luo really hoped that he was flying a J-10B fighter that could carry precision-guided missiles, but he could only think about it.

All my attention was focused on the altimeter, and I didn't dare to get distracted at all.

The head sight locked the attack point, and the airborne fire control system continuously calculated the optimal launch height and position. After the calculated position overlapped with the aircraft, Yang Luo pressed the launch button without thinking, then pulled up and recovered, and attacked continuously.

I don't even care about the effects.

"boom!"

The aerial bomb touched the ground, causing a violent explosion, emitting a dazzling firelight, and sending pieces of wood and rocks flying in all directions.

Because the altitude was too low, when Yang Luola pulled up, he could clearly feel the airflow after the explosion of the aerial bomb, which caused No. 801 J-7g to tremble.

Yang Luo made a U-turn in front and returned to fly over at low altitude to observe the effect of the attack. He found that it was not very different from where he expected the attack would be. If he tried it a few more times, it should be able to destroy it.

"Report to the tower, the attack is effective." Yang Luo said.

As soon as Yang Lu finished speaking, Ye Jianlong's voice intervened and said: "Tower, I suggest you stop attacking. The mountain opposite has caused tremors and is very likely to collapse."

When Hu Zhongming heard this, he stood up in shock and said loudly: "802, are you sure?"

"Sure, I'll hover above and see the mountain trembling with my own eyes."

"802,801, return immediately, over."

"801 understands." Yang Luo said helplessly. He didn't see the mountain trembling and was busy climbing out.

Yang Luo had already anticipated that the mountain on the opposite side might slide, but it was a pity that he could not continue to drop the remaining three aerial bombs and had to return home with the bombs.
