Chapter 61 The Scalpel of the Baron Sea!
The southern sea area.
The sky was like a giant sapphire, pure and profound.
It connected seamlessly with the vast, azure sea.
Where the sea met the sky, it was as if nature had sketched a magnificent painting with the most delicate of strokes.
This was the sacred maritime territory of the Dragon Kingdom.
Every spray of waves and every breeze carried the nation's dignity and glory.
Pilot Zhang Zhiwei was patrolling above at this moment.
He was a young pilot.
His mentor had retired honorably last year, passing the heavy burden of patrolling this region to him!
Every day he patrolled this area, the pilot was incredibly diligent!
He was terrified that his own negligence would lead to the nation's airspace being violated without cause.
However, because the nation was becoming increasingly powerful, the number of violations had decreased significantly in recent years.
But precisely because of this growing strength, a certain country called Eagle Sauce became increasingly eager to provoke it.
Zhang Zhiwei was piloting his J-16 Fighter Jet, roaring through the sky.
Under the sunlight, it shimmered with a metallic luster, like a sharp sword defending the maritime territory of the Dragon Kingdom.
Just at this moment, which seemed as peaceful as a painting, Zhang Zhiwei's hawk-like, sharp eyes suddenly flashed with intensity.
"Damn it, they're here again!"
He saw a reconnaissance plane locked by the radar system; it was not a friendly aircraft, but an Eagle Sauce RC-135 series reconnaissance plane!
He had encountered this reconnaissance plane performing missions in the surrounding waters before!
It was just that because it hadn't entered the Dragon Kingdom's waters and was only operating in international waters, Zhang Zhiwei hadn't taken any countermeasures.
But this behavior of being provoked right at his doorstep made him extremely unhappy.
Zhang Zhiwei pushed the control stick and accelerated, rushing toward the other party.
He wanted to guard his doorstep and confront them!
At the same time, he turned on the radio and issued a warning.
"You are about to enter the Dragon Kingdom's waters. Please withdraw immediately!"
"Otherwise, I will take countermeasures!"
In the past, the reconnaissance plane would circle for a while and then leave!
But this time, the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane didn't seem to have any intention of leaving; instead, it continued to advance toward the Dragon Kingdom's waters.
Zhang Zhiwei issued another warning to the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane!
"You are about to enter the Dragon Kingdom's waters. Please leave immediately!"
"Please leave immediately!"
"Otherwise, I will take countermeasures!"
The Eagle Sauce reconnaissance pilot chuckled.
He didn't take this warning to heart and continued to collect information on his own.
Finally, seemingly feeling annoyed by listening to it, he not only didn't reply to Zhang Zhiwei's warning but even turned off the public channel directly!
"Damn it!"
"They've gone too far!"
Zhang Zhiwei adjusted his communicator to the ground control tower!
"Calling control tower, this is 0317!"
"Detected an Eagle Sauce RC-135 reconnaissance plane invading our nation's waters!"
"Requesting instructions! Requesting instructions!"
Commander Xu Tao was shocked when he heard the message from his subordinate pilot!
He was still stunned by the Space Mecha's speed of Mach 20, but upon hearing the news, he immediately turned the radar system toward the fighter jet piloted by Zhang Zhiwei!
The radar showed an unknown reconnaissance plane already approaching the Dragon Kingdom's waters!
Commander Xu Tao frowned immediately.
He asked Zhang Zhiwei through the Air Force channel:
"Have you warned them?"
Zhang Zhiwei recognized the voice of Commander Xu Tao and replied immediately:
"0317 has already warned them!"
"But we detected that they turned off the public channel and ignored our warning!"
"Requesting next instructions!"
Commander Xu Tao slammed his fist on the table!
He wished he could have Su Chen fly the mecha and shoot down the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane!
But he knew now was not the time to act on impulse!
He immediately issued the order: "Turn on fire control!"
"See if they leave!"
"Yes!"
After receiving instructions from the ground, Commander Xu Tao decisively turned on the fire control radar and locked onto the target!
This meant the J-16 Fighter Jet could attack the enemy reconnaissance plane at any time!
When the fire control radar hit the enemy reconnaissance plane, a shrill alarm sounded immediately.
The Eagle Sauce pilot sneered!
He had already realized that he had been locked on by the other party!
However, he still had no intention of withdrawing and continued to penetrate deeper into the Dragon Kingdom's waters!
"Control tower! 0317 has turned on fire control!"
"But the other party is still violating our airspace!"
Commander Xu Tao frowned tightly and clenched his fists.
In the past, as long as fire control was turned on, the enemy reconnaissance plane would wisely leave!
But now, he didn't know what was wrong!
They were actually challenging the Dragon Kingdom's bottom line again and again!
Su Chen also heard the news through the Air Force channel about Eagle Sauce violating the Dragon Kingdom's airspace.
And even though we had turned on fire control, the other party still dared to invade!
Are they this fearless?
They were treating the Dragon Kingdom like a soft persimmon!
Inside the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane sat a very young pilot.
A white person with freckles on his face and a look of fearlessness.
He mocked to himself:
"So what if you turn on fire control?"
"Do you really dare to fire?"
"If you dare to anger me, I'll shoot you down even while flying a reconnaissance plane!"
He continued to move forward on his own.
The Dragon Kingdom never fires the first shot.
But it is definitely not a coward!
Seeing the other party continue to intrude, Zhang Zhiwei was furious!
He dived directly and got underneath the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane!
Then he pushed the control stick violently, bringing his tail wing close to the reconnaissance plane's belly, intending to perform a "surgery" on him.
However, just as the tail wing approached the belly and was about to turn into a scalpel, the RC-135 reconnaissance plane suddenly lifted upward!
It grazed past the scalpel!
The Eagle Sauce pilot was startled!
Cold sweat broke out all over him!
"Are you a maniac? You actually wanted to use your tail wing to slash the belly of my reconnaissance plane!"
"You actually wanted to recreate the Barents Sea Scalpel?"
The Eagle Sauce pilot had foreseen Zhang Zhiwei's intention in advance and dodged the other party's "surgery."
But this also completely infuriated him!
Seeing the J-16 Fighter Jet with its tail wing facing him, he decisively turned on his fire control and pressed the cannon button the next second!
A burst of bullets fired toward the J-16 Fighter Jet!
Fortunately, after Zhang Zhiwei realized he was locked on by the enemy's fire control, he immediately accelerated and dodged the fatal attack!
But the tail wing was still hit, and the fighter jet gradually lost control!
Alarms sounded at the ground Air Force Base!
"Report, Commander, the Eagle Sauce reconnaissance plane has launched an attack on 0317!"
"0317's tail wing is damaged!"
Commander Xu Tao stood up abruptly!
"Damn it, not only did they violate our airspace, but they actually dared to open fire?"
"Have 0317 return to base. I need to request instructions from my superiors. Today, we must shoot the bastards down!"
Commander Xu Tao hurriedly made a call to request instructions from his superiors!
At the same time, Su Chen, who was connected to the Air Force channel, also heard the news that Eagle Sauce had opened fire and almost shot down his comrade!
This made his anger flare up instantly!
According to the radar scanning system built into his mecha, he quickly locked onto the enemy plane!
"longwei-1!"
"Head to the target sea area!"
"We must teach them a lesson!"
