Girls und War

The aerial battlefield is tens of thousands of meters high, and the shadow of a fighter jet can only leave a small dot in the field of view of the telescope, so the only way to observe the battlefield is to guess the trajectory of the clouds.

The fighter jets were flying incredibly fast, likely exceeding the speed of sound. The white trails and loud noises left in the clouds were the effects of sonic booms.

The battlefield is too high and too far away, making it very difficult to observe the battlefield from the air.

Their eyes are not radars, so how can they capture this kind of air combat situation?

I can only guess.

"Can we win?" Xiaotang asked Qingxian from the side.

"Who knows?" Qingxian curled his lips and said, "I don't know anything about the Air Force."

"It seems that whether we can eat in the next few days depends on whether we can win this air battle. Right?" Viper muttered.

"It's obvious." Qingxian said, put down the telescope, rubbed his eyes, and sighed.

At this moment, a white track cut through the sky and fell from the sky into the distance.

Like a meteor falling from the sky, it fell from the sky and then disappeared without a trace.

It was an airborne missile that missed the target.

After a while, a barely perceptible spark appeared in the sky.

It seems that one of the fighter planes was shot down.

"Tsk tsk." Xiaotang smacked her lips and said, "How many messenger birds have been lost in just one go?"

Xia Shu thought for a moment and said, "Forty, maybe."

"Some in the Air Force Department cried."

The ace dogfight in the sky didn't seem to be ending any time soon, so the girls watched and started chatting again.

"The fighter jets from the sea area have arrived. Does that mean that their aircraft carrier has arrived in the Inner Sea?" asked Viper.

"Yes." Qingxian thought for a moment and said, "But at the same time, our fighter jets have also arrived."

"What are you implying?" Viper asked with a smile.

"Hehe, military secrets." Qingxian had a playful expression.

Xiaotang listened to them talking, put down the telescope, and said in confusion, "I don't understand this. Can anyone tell me what's happening in the sky?"

Viper glanced at her and said, "To be honest, I don't understand aerial combat either."

"Does Xia Shu understand this?" Qingxian looked at Xia Shu.

Xia Shu put down the telescope and replied, "I know a little bit."

Viper immediately showed an interested expression and asked her, "Can you explain it?"

"Hmm..." Xia Shu thought for a moment and said, "With the current level of non-nuclear technology, the maximum flight speed of a fighter jet is Mach 5 to 6—six times the speed of sound. Going higher not only requires nuclear energy as an industrial foundation, but the human body cannot withstand the gravitational acceleration caused by the fighter jet's maneuvers. Oh, and the pilots in the planes are just tools now. I don't know if they can withstand the aircraft's overload maneuvers."

"Yes." Qingxian replied decisively.

It's true that tools have no human rights.

"At the same time, high-end fighter jets also possess both stealth and powerful anti-stealth capabilities. In other words, they are invisible to radar. Therefore, unless engaging in a dogfight, a fighter jet becomes invisible to the other."

Xia Shu first mentioned the two main characteristics of top-tier fighter jets: stealth and high maneuverability.

"How can I fight if I can't see?" Xiaotang was a little puzzled.

"No," Xia Shu replied. "High-tech fighter jets are extremely expensive. To avoid unnecessary damage to such valuable equipment, top-tier fighters will avoid fighting each other.

"Their mission is to destroy enemy radar early warning aircraft, strategic reconnaissance aircraft, and aerial refueling tankers from a safe, ultra-long range. Once these logistics aircraft are destroyed, the enemy will be rendered blind and crippled.

"To put it bluntly, an air combat showdown is a competition to see who has the strongest damage resistance and who will have the last laugh."

After Xia Shu finished speaking, Xiaotang immediately showed an expression of understanding.

But she quickly asked, "Will the fighter dogfights in the game not happen?"

"Probably," Xia Shu thought for a moment and said, "but this kind of dogfight would only happen between tactical reconnaissance aircraft. After all, tactical reconnaissance aircraft have low configurations and are cheap, and the Air Force can accept the damage to this type of aircraft."

"Are fighter jets used for tactical reconnaissance much weaker than high-end fighter jets?" Xiaotang asked again.

"Yeah," Xia Shu nodded and said, "If we're lucky, we can probably beat one out of twenty."

"I understand." Viper nodded.

Su27: Ahhhh, come again!

J20: Look at this Susu, he only flew a few kilometers and he gave up. He's really lame.

F16: This Su-27 is just lame!

J20: From what you said, you seem very brave?

F16: Just kidding, I’m a great fighter and shooter!

J20: It can fight and shoot very well (radar lock). The wings are nice and strong.

F16 (Cobra maneuver): 2…20 sister, what are you doing!

J20: You've been serving for a few years, but you're still so shy. I see you don't understand at all.

F16: Understand... Understand what...

J20: You know, I have some good stuff in my hangar.

F16: What's the deal? A new engine?

J20: What a new engine! It's even more exciting than the engine! I can also teach you how to turn it into the fifth generation~

F16: Switching to the fifth generation? (Excited)

J20: Yes, here we are! Come and see for yourself!

(Omitted)

329. If you can’t win, you have to pin the jungler. This is an eternal law.

After Xia Shu's explanation, they looked up at the sky again - although they still couldn't see clearly, they had a general understanding of the current situation.

In other words, the current aerial combat is nothing more than a dogfight between inferior fighter planes.

They actually cannot see the real combat situation.

Maybe it was the front-line aircraft in the sea area that destroyed the logistics of the flower area, or maybe it was the front-line aircraft in the flower area that destroyed the logistics of the sea area.

In short, the outcome of the battle will slowly be decided in invisible places.

All they can do is pray.

The air battle did not last too long. In just a cup of tea, the fighter planes in the sky disappeared.

Xia Shu and the others didn't know what the situation was, so Viper called the headquarters again.

After a few minutes, Viper put down his headphones.

"How is it?" Qingxian asked anxiously.

Viper shook his head and said, "The battle situation is not very ideal. Both sides will win and lose."

"That means they will continue fighting?" Qingxian asked with a frown.

"Correct."

It seems that the supplies will not arrive for a while, so they have to find a way themselves.

At present, the lack of food can be tolerated, and not eating for a day or two is not a big problem.

The problem is drinking water.

Now everyone has almost finished drinking the water they brought with them. If they don’t replenish fresh water quickly, their combat effectiveness will drop sharply.

Even life safety may become an issue.

They live in deserts and Gobi, and the bay next to them is also a saltwater sea, so they don't have enough time to dig wells or purify seawater.

We need to find some water...

Qingxian thought for a while and asked Xiaotang, "Is the roast chicken back?"

"Almost there, she said a few hundred meters away." Xiaotang replied expressionlessly, then looked into the distance and said, "Oh, I saw her."

Several girls were waiting next to the stone, and the roast chicken quickly trotted back under the stone.

"How is it?" Qingxian handed her his water bag.

Roast Chicken took a sip, quickly shook his head, and said, "No, I searched a few small villages, and the wells were all blocked. It must have been done by the sea area."

"How cruel." The venomous snake sneered.

Qingxian's frown deepened.

In this case, there is only one path left for them to choose.

Go to the Two Rivers area and get water from the river.

From here, go around Kote and head north for about ten kilometers, and you will reach the Two Rivers.

There is plenty of fresh water there, but there is no doubt that the sea areas in the Mesopotamian region are heavily guarded.

But in any case, it is much safer than taking the risk to enter the city of Kote.

It's impossible that the hundreds of kilometers of river lines in the Two Rivers area are all blocked by the sea area, right?

As long as they can get near the river, they can find opportunities to get water.

Anything is better than waiting to die.

Having made up his mind, Qingxian immediately gave the order for all team members to disperse and head towards the two rivers.

The girls carefully bypassed the city of Kote, with the outposts and rearguard members spread out far apart to ensure they would not be discovered by enemy scouts.

After crossing the Gobi area, there is a vast plain to the north of the city.

The view here is relatively open, which is not suitable for marching during the day, so Qingxian asked everyone to stop and rest, and wait until night falls before heading to the Two Rivers area.

By this time, some of the girls had finished their water, so they shared the water among themselves, ensuring that everyone had a small amount of water to survive.

These waters will not be moved until they die of thirst. They are a spiritual survival tool.

Seeing that the river was just a few kilometers away, everyone was in good spirits.

As long as you can refill the water bag afterwards, there will be no problem.

If you can refill the water bag.

But in this world, things don't always go as we wish.

Just like the Gold District that Haiqu can never take, the Two Rivers that Liangyue can never penetrate, and the Xiashu that Miyu can never reach.

Qingxian also ran into trouble this time.

They had originally planned to wait until nightfall to set out for the Two Rivers, but at dusk, the situation suddenly took an unexpected turn.

From the north of the Gobi Desert, in the area between the two rivers, a large number of infantrymen began to conduct a dragnet reconnaissance on both sides of the river.

Constantly patrolling helicopters and extremely dense reconnaissance teams conducted a full-scale search of various hiding places on the riverside plains.

Their search was highly targeted, aimed at weeding out special infiltration teams like theirs.

And the reconnaissance position is gradually approaching this side.

"What's going on? Why are there so many active forces?" Viper whispered, holding the telescope. "Are they abandoning the two rivers? Are they coming to target us?"

Qingxian put down the telescope and said thoughtfully, "Something went wrong. The situation must have changed."

"What should we do?" Viper turned to look at Qingxian and said, "We can't go to the two rivers anymore."

Not only that, the search line is moving closer.

If you continue to stay here, the possibility of exposure will increase dramatically.

Qingxian thought for a moment and said, "Retreat, retreat to Kote City."

Viper sighed.
