Chapter 195 Airborne

(...He is the only person I know from the Volunteer Team of the Soviet Air Force Aid China. He never contacted him again after the breakup. It was not until after the war that I received a letter from the Ministry of Military Affairs that he left behind many years ago that I knew that he died in China in battle, just one day before the signing of the "Japan-Soviet Non-Aggression Treaty"... Excerpted from "My Memories of the War of Resistance-Cao Xiaomin")

"This is the one who steals my wife. I have to take it back quickly after using it..." "Big Lazy" looked at the ronin in front of me with interest, and the ronin made of Cao Xiaomin.

Since the fall of Nanjing, many ronin people have followed various pioneering groups to this ancient capital. Many idle ronin bullies the Chinese people everywhere. Since Baguazhou became a demonstration of Japan-China friendship, these people have also visited them from time to time.

Today, Cao Xiaomin killed three ronin in one day and selected some of their clothes to wear. Now he is doing the final check to see if he has any flaws.

Cao Xiaomin is not unfamiliar with wearing kimono. In the original time and space, he was originally prepared to wear kimono at the wedding, and his future father-in-law's special behavior and posture when wearing kimono also impressed him. When he put on kimono, he was completely a gaunt man, and even the "lazy" who watched him change his clothes felt completely unaware of him.

In addition to stealing a small mirror from his wife, "Da Lazy" also brought the rouge powder she used when she first passed the door. Although it has not been used for several years, it has been preserved well. Cao Xiaomin used the rouge mixed with incense burner ash to make a cosmetic, a cosmetic that can deepen some facial contours.

The scars on his face that were deliberately covered up when he was dressed as a doctor were deliberately revealed this time, but not the most obvious ones - those may be seen by people who had been in close contact with him, and will be provided as characteristics to the Japanese intelligence personnel.

He also sacrificed two cigarettes and cooked a bowl of water with them. He applied to the head, neck and hands over and over again to apply every inch of skin on his head, neck and hands to let them dry. Finally, he used strong wine to sprinkle perfume on his armpits like the later butterfly boys, and put all the clothes on the sensitive parts on them, and drank the rest into his stomach.

A smoky ghost ronin with a yellow complexion and obviously had a day in the winery. Da laziness watched the whole process happen, and then he was stunned and did not object to Cao Xiaomin going to Nanjing City this time: Chief Cao is a Sun Wukong who can change seventy-two times!

The place where Cao Xiaomin entered the city was Yifeng Gate, and the city tower was still being repaired. Perhaps it was a trophy that the *** people didn't want them to be proud of. The capital of this great Eastern country was too dilapidated, so they were always building the bombed part according to their old appearance.

The Japanese did not completely believe that Cao Xiaomin was in Quanjiao. Although this is very likely, from their tracking of the doctor, Cao Xiaomin had at least been to Pukou. He was really likely to be at a certain location in Nanjing. However, almost all the agents and military police searched the entire Nanjing city without any discovery. The most important thing is that later someone was not sure to recognize the man in a suit and did not cross the river but left the station in Pukou... When you guess he would do that, he didn't do that! This is the Japanese's analysis of Cao Xiaomin's action characteristics. If this analysis is based on this, he might really arrive at Quanjiao in the early morning!

The city of Nanjing was still searching, but it was already very casual, including those agents who were arranged to stare at pedestrians at the gates everywhere, who were drawn into pictures of Cao Xiaomin's appearance and identifying everyone, and they seemed very lazy; Cao Xiaomin easily entered the city.

Maybe every time I pass those door holes in the rest of my life, I will feel palpitations and regrets! Cao Xiaomin always inadvertently looked back at the bombed city tower under construction, with too many of his brothers sleeping there; those places placed in the door holes, burned by fire, some are cracked and oozed like barbecue, and the wounded people who smelled of barbecue appeared in his mind one by one, and the sound of barbecue seemed to be still ringing in his ears...

When approaching the city gate, the people were very regular. They were lined up in line to leave the city or enter the city. Only "non-min" like Cao Xiaomin would sway across the city. Cao Xiaomin was thinking in his mind whether it was better to walk the road or to go to the candidate points for banners; it should be safer to walk the road. After all, he was a little worried that he would encounter situations like him attacking the ronin on a secluded section of the road. But at this time, the area around the city gate suddenly became lively. Although the noise was not very loud, the low and delicate discussions that suddenly sounded as the gongs and the whistle suddenly sounded...

A car that came from somewhere was in Cao Xiaomin's memory seemed to be the kind of ancient prison car I had watched on movies and TV. I couldn't see anyone in the distance, but from the crowd talking around me, this person was not simple - the people who were used to parading all kinds of people would not be interested in ordinary soldiers or other prisoners.

As the sound of the wooden wheels approached, Cao Xiaomin saw clearly that there was a foreigner locked in the prison car!

British? French? Or... In Cao Xiaomin's mind, *** is quite polite to foreigners in Nanjing. At least British people like Jones are doing well. What taboo does this foreigner violate the *** and will be arrested and paraded in the streets? You should know that foreigners are very resistant to such insults, and *** people will not easily break the layer of screen paper and give face to citizens of various countries in China.

I saw clearly that the leather jacket that the foreigner was wearing turned out to be a flying jacket. He was a shot down air force!

Air Force? Foreigner? Cao Xiaomin felt a little confused. He vaguely remembered that a US Air Force who married a Chinese wife named Chen and others formed a "Flying Tigers". It seemed that they were all Americans and had a good record in fighting the Japanese. Could it be that they? They came to China to fight against Japan so early?

Cao Xiaomin is basically a history blind person. He had no idea that before the signing of the Japan-Soviet Treaty on Non-aggression, the Chinese Air Force, which had only 36 aircraft left in the war in Shanghai and Nanjing, was able to rebuild its combat effectiveness entirely due to the help of the Soviet Union. The first batch of 450 volunteer team members and the Soviet arms sold by the Soviet Union (155 fighter jets, 62 bombers, and 8 trainers) came to China by sea and by land from Almaty in October 1937. Before 1941, the Chinese Air Force was almost all using it.

The fighter jets purchased by the Soviet Union and the coaches of the New Air Force were almost all Soviets; what made the Chinese people at that time grateful to the Soviet Union and suddenly won high popularity during that period was that the Soviet Air Force, a unit called the volunteer team of aid China, secretly used help or acted in the name of the people, and they participated in the war without evading the law in the form of regular troops! (During that period, *** was greatly tolerated, such as running newspapers in the Kuomintang-controlled area, purchasing and even recruiting people, and developing rapidly...)

Cao Xiaomin thought this was a member of the "Flying Tigers". He never thought that this was a Soviet man, and he never thought that this Soviet man was shot down over the Quanjiao battlefield!

Three hours after the bloody battle, a transport plane suddenly appeared above Quanjiao, and soon began to airdrop Quanjiao. This is not the first time. Since Li Tianhao's telegram was sent, *** has sent planes to airdrop Quanjiao three times. The main drops were medicines, jerky meat, lard, and some special ammunition weapons and communication equipment. Of course, the poison needed for the "hidden weapon" set up by Li Tianhao in the trenches. The amount of airdropped materials was not large, but more importantly, it is not the materials but the airdrop itself!

Once the airdrop of Quanjiao in the rear was a strong spiritual inspiration from the support of the defenders: they were lonely behind the enemy and fought on the front line. Their most important spiritual support was that they were not abandoned, and their own villagers were still standing behind them; they were struggling because they were heroes of the whole nation, and they stood at the forefront of the War of Resistance! Every time they airdropped, the people on the entire Quanjiao ground would cheer with the soldiers, and tears were shedding on their cheering faces, whether they were soldiers or the people; at that moment, everyone on the positions on the county town and the mountains outside the city would feel full of energy!

Suddenly, four Japanese planes pounced down from the clouds, and rushed towards the airdropping transport plane like bloodthirsty mosquitoes. Everyone on the ground changed their faces and held their breath one by one. At this time, a lonely fighter plane appeared on the other side of the clouds and bravely pounced on the four Japanese planes... The forgotten military and civilians stood at the surface of the position and the height of the broken walls of the county town, and suddenly shouted anxiously to let the plane go quickly. Everyone was worried about the two Chinese planes.

The materials were not airdropped yet, and the transport plane was still circling at a low altitude. The blue sky and white sun emblem on the fuselage looked very big. The pilot was used to the fact that he would circle the upper half of the airdrop over Quanjiao every time after airdropping the materials. In his opinion, the crowd on the ground was not different from the previous few times... not right! Their waved his hand a little wrong!

"Enemy attack!" The alert co-pilot discovered the enemy plane. Almost as he shouted, the enemy plane's bullets were already dancing and passing by the plane!

The old transport plane didn't even have time to close the material delivery door. The plane quickly avoided the movement and almost threw out the entourage who was putting materials at the door. The entouragers who forgot that they had seat belts were so scared that they exclaimed...

A string of Mars flashed across the body of the transport plane, and the people on the ground seemed to hear the "clang" sound of the machine gun being fired; they forgot about life and death, and no one on the ground knew how to hide, they were watching from a high place!

The two Japanese planes that dived down chased and hurriedly pushed the fleeing transport plane out of the box that had not even been hooked up to hook the parachute. The machine gun on the nose flashed constantly, and you could see that sparks sometimes burst on the transport plane... Suddenly, the two Japanese planes began to avoid it! The lonely *** fighter jet hit the two Japanese planes that intercepted him head-on, and after the other side dodged, they rushed towards the two Japanese planes at low altitude!

One Japanese fighter jet that saw the plane was early quickly rushed to the side, and the other was bitten by the lonely *** fighter jet. The fuselage was constantly splashing like a rainstorm! The audience underground finally cheered together, but the cheers just now and suddenly died - the fuselage suddenly came out of thick black smoke on one side of the fuselage, and the fuselage kept shaking in the air... The fighter jet that was not good was not good either. The two Japanese fighter jets that avoided it had already bit their tails and rushed down. As the dazzling flames flashed from the noses of the two fighter jets, it was obvious that the *** fighter jet had been hit by a lot of bullets...

The pilot of the transport plane could not escape, but he rushed straight towards the hills in the distance! A Japanese fighter jet that was already chasing its tail kept pouring bullets into the fuselage of the transport plane. Even its cannon rubbed the transport plane several times, knocking one wing of the transport plane off...

Can't go back! Whether it's a transport plane or a fighter plane, the two planes of the *** can't go back!... They can't go back. Will there be airdrops in the future? Will there be blue sky and white sun emblems in the sky in the future?... The crowd on the ground watched the three Japanese fighters bit the *** fighter jets behind their backs, which were already bumpy like boats, and they watched its body suddenly emit smoke in the sun, watching it disappear on the horizon and suddenly a fire rose on the horizon...

Another Japanese fighter jet staring at the transport plane pulled up. If it continued to stick it up, it might hit the mountainside. This *** plane was really going to hit the mountain!? Even the Japanese pilot was very surprised... It happened, and the transport plane actually passed through the mountain!... No, there was a gap in the mountain he bumped into and a shallow valley! The pilot who had to turn around every time he sent supplies was rewarded. He was familiar with this place!

With such a room for maneuver, after the Japanese fighter plane was pulled up, the transport plane made a big turn and flew back, falling rapidly and flew back lower and lower!

When flying in the sky, the transport plane, which seemed slow, was shoveling to the slope at an extremely fast speed. With a loud bang, the plane brought a dragon-like snow dust and mud and sand - the transport plane actually landed along the hillside!

Suddenly, the crowd watching the fun started to move! Countless people began to run towards the distance, which was outside the county town, but it was still their own territory. The pilot arrived on his own land! It was like charging in front of the battle. Many people had a thought in their minds: Go quickly and save their own people! Some people had a blank mind, but everyone ran there, so let's follow... For a moment, most of the people all shouted and ran towards the direction where the plane fell!

Because one of the Japanese fighter jets was also injured by the *** fighter jets, the Japanese fighter jets did not attack the crowd on the ground, and flew away with their injured companions.

There were six crew members rescued, two pilots and four other entourages. They were lucky to have their ammunition dropped on the parachute from the beginning. The rest were mainly clothing and food, and the plane did not explode. When the people arrived one after another, they had already seen that the defenders at the *** positions on the nearby mountains had sent a platoon to rescue. They had already put all the six people who were so dizzy that they were not dead on the stretcher.

Soon, just like a festival, the people carried the six crew members back to the county town on stretchers, followed by the six air heroes in their long queues. Of course, there were still many people who did not come back. They stayed in place to watch the soldiers demolish the iron bird on the plane, and many people also received the honor of coming forward to help! Looking at the little little guy in the sky, he turned out to be such a huge thing! Many people opened their eyes. No matter whether they were alive or not, they wanted to touch the iron bird.

A broken plane is also a good thing. The fuel tank without explosion can release a lot of oil. The seats, tools, and all kinds of debris inside come to the ground. The group of people who lack anything are treasures in their hands; even the steel plates removed from the fuselage can be installed in the fortifications on the position.

There is no dead person, this is a surprise. It is a surprise to get so many wool blankets and food from the plane. The people spent the whole New Year in a terrified day. Now they are like they want to compensate for that loss, and they are all happy!

Maybe I have become accustomed to losing my closest relatives and friends around me, maybe I have seen too many dead people, and everyone chose to forget the pilot who fell to the distance. This is the people in wartime. No matter how many people die, as long as there are those who are alive, it is worth celebrating. Everyone really has low requirements and is used to it...

The pilot who jumped parachutes in the distance became a prisoner. Perhaps the Japanese had a kind of respect for these people who fell from the sky, or his identity was quite special - he was a white man; in the end the Japanese didn't make much trouble for him, but just beat him to break his ribs like a pig's head, spitting a few mouthfuls of blood and falling into a few teeth...

What Cao Xiaomin saw was this fighter pilot. He was not the flying tiger team members that Cao Xiaomin thought. He was from the Soviet Union, named Xie Liushenko, and was shot down in the battle to escort the airdrop materials to Quanjiao.

Shelushenko, who was trapped in a cage, was in a low mood. In his opinion, there were enemies around him, including those Chinese people who were dressed in rags. He could not see any difference between them and those who captured him and almost killed him. Now he was parading in the cage with his eyes closed. Although his eyes were closed, he felt the eyes around him were full of contempt and hostility, and even if he closed his eyes, he could still feel their existence...

His mind was in chaos. He didn't know what would happen if he would be killed by a cruel method? Will his meat be used to feed wolfdogs?... Anyway, before they came to China, the people in the propaganda department told him that the *** people used prisoners to feed wolfdogs!

If he could save him in Nanjing, it would probably make everyone in the Japanese restless? Cao Xiaomin thought to himself: How to send him away if he saves him is a bigger problem... Oh, by the way, I'd better find a way to save people first, let's talk about anything else later...
