...

The new day begins, with brilliant sunshine shining on the vast land of the Caucasus.

Today is the day when Victor Rezenov returns to the 237th Regiment after a long separation.

He said goodbye to Lyudmira who was reluctant to leave early in the morning and drove all the way from the apartment. Long Yun saw the "special plane" to Stavropol at a military airport near Moscow, and also met Colonel Molotov again. The last time he went to Stavropol, the flight instructor from the aviation training regiment sent him south; the two were very happy after meeting, and naturally the journey of thousands of kilometers was chatting and passing quickly.

Taking a heavy fighter plane through the blue sky, the long-lost flight felt pleasant and pleasant.

Sitting in the front seat of the Su-27ub fighter with a wide view, he flew over the vast land of the European part of the Soviet Union under the reflection of the rising sun. The vast scene that he had admired a few months ago was once again presented before him. However, things changed quickly. Compared with before, Long Yun now has not only many medals and military ranks, but also adds more thoughts and mysteries.

But no matter what, in the vast river of parallel world, he knew that he had to move forward with great strides and use his strength and actions to solve one problem after another.

During the nearly two-hour journey, Molotov naturally talked to Victor about the current war situation. When facing the inquiry of the lieutenant colonel instructor, Long Yun considered it for a while before he decided to tell him most of the truth. In fact, he didn't know which content could be revealed and which ones could not be. However, by snooping through consciousness, he knew that Molotov, a member of the KGB, was completely reliable, so he didn't need to care about this much.

"Oh?--The loss rate is actually...so high?"

While controlling the huge su-27ub, the airplane was flying steadily in the sky. Molotov's words were filled with a hint of worry. "This is very difficult. The Americans seem to be planning to fight us in the Caucasus. They are going to fight a long-term war, what do you think?"

"Long war? - Well, I think so."

Nodded in the front row and gave an answer. Long Yun's thoughts at this time were similar to Molotov.

Although historically, any invaders who chose the Black Sea and the Caucasus line as the offensive route did not end well in this ancient land of Russia, this does not prevent NATO from making another adventure-like gamble here.

After a long period of time travel, Long Yun has already learned a lot about the overall situation of the Soviet Union in parallel worlds. He knows that this large land that stretches from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea is not only the important location of oil, minerals and machinery industries in the Red Empire, but also an important production area for large-scale strategic materials such as grain and cotton. If this beautiful and rich land is seized by NATO, or turned into a scorched earth in the war of the sky, although it will not immediately endanger the life and death of the Soviet Union, it will greatly weaken the country's long-term war potential, and will also shake the living conditions of the whole society due to the sharp decline in the production of several living materials, which is extremely unfavorable for the protracted long-term war.

Not only that, in the past two weeks, the air situation in the Caucasus has become even more sinister as the NATO Air Force has gained the generation difference advantage of missile weapons; with the continuous gathering of NATO ground forces, a large-scale ground war broke out on the Transcaucasus border has become inevitable.

The situation is very clear now. NATO ground military forces, which rely heavily on air support, are not the most urgent threat at the moment; but once the theater's air supremacy changes hands and loses the air barrier of the aviation force, the situation will immediately turn into another look.

It seems that there is no rich direct military value, but it is a crucial place for military strategists to compete. Isn’t this the case in the Caucasus?

Thinking of this, Long Yun noticed the concerns in the lieutenant colonel. Of course, he wanted to cheer Molotov up, but before the plan was fully implemented, he could not, and there was no need to express his action plan at this time:

"Hey, you don't have to worry. This time I heard in Moscow that there are already combat strategies against the Americans, and the Caucasus situation will soon be fundamentally improved. If the Americans want to learn from the Germans and continue to advance to Stalingrad, I think they don't have enough body bags to prepare, they are just dreaming in the daytime!"

"Haha, is that right! - I won't ask about the specifics. If this is the case, it would be better."

After chatting with Long Yun for a while, Molotov did not forget to ask him halfway through business trips in Moscow (naturally, Molotov didn't know Long Yun's secret mission) and had never driven the Sukhoi fighter. Should I use this two-seat type to practice my skills? So just like last time, Long Yun drove the su-27ub and played maneuvering in the sky for a while before he resumed his route and headed south. After two hours of departure, he landed at the 237th Fighter Aviation Regiment near Stavropol.

Just as he approached the airport runway and was about to land, Long Yun received an air situation alarm "ready to attack" through the connection with the tower.

After a long separation, he returned to the front line again. This time, he was greeted not only by his eagerly anticipated comrades in the 237th Regiment, but also by the Americans, who also held a large movement in the southern sky; today's air conditioning alarm was very similar to the situation in the previous few days.

After initially mastering the powerful weapon of "active radar guided missile", the Americans who were counter-defense and offensive had begun to try to apply the Gulf War tactics on the Caucasus frontline: first, they used air-optimal fighter jets carrying active bombs to separate, squeeze the active airspace of Soviet fighter jets, and forced the opponent to fight to defend air supremacy; after several clearance-style air supremacy operations, Soviet fighters were gradually driven out of this area and obtained air supremacy in the war zone, and then they could use air force to clean any high-value targets on the ground, covering the ground forces to advance all the way to the north.

It is today that NATO air activities along the Black Sea are as frequent as ever. NATO attack aircraft frequently dispatched to cooperate with the offensive of ground troops are appearing everywhere in the sky of the Caucasus; and to their north, fearless Red Air Force pilots are flying MiG aircraft and NATO escort fighters, completely fighting together.
