The Fool left the airship base of the Crystal Battle Fort in the bright and warm sunlight, and kept floating, but after more than ten minutes, when the airship base of the Crystal Battle Fort on the ground became smaller than the ants, the Fool had already flown to an altitude of 7 kilometers from the ground, and the distance from the Crystal Battle Fort was also more than 50 kilometers.
At this distance, in the Cernes war zone, they have entered the battle zone between the two sides, and it is possible to meet the Wing Demon at any time, and the crew of the entire Fool airship has also entered a combat state.
And this altitude is almost close to the maximum levitation altitude of 8 kilometers of the Fury Wind-class airship, and at this altitude, you can easily see the black coal mining areas on the Cernes Plains and the continuous trenches and battle forts on the ground south of the war zone.
The entire underground of the Cernes Plain is made of high-quality anthracite, and the Terran coalition chose here as the first line of defense against the sniper demon legion, in addition to the terrain here is more suitable for the deployment of human mechanized troops, the most important one is that in the Cernes Plain, the logistical pressure of the Terran legion can be reduced to a minimum.
Wherever you are, just a few people dig into the ground to get extremely high-quality anthracite, which can provide an endless supply of power for human war forts, tanks and various vehicles, and even airships.
Looking at the black coal mining areas on the plains like scars, Zhang Tie immediately understood the intentions of the high-level of the Terran Alliance, so it makes sense to say that height determines the field of vision.
However, at this moment, Zhang Tie is not trying to point out anything here, but is making final preparations and arrangements for his flight attack.
"After I leave, the Fool airship will fly around this area" Zhang Tie said as he drew a circle with his hand on the aviation map of the command cabin, which was in a fan-shaped area within 50 to 100 kilometers north of the Crystal Battle Fortress, "If you can't resist the attack of the Wing Demon, I will allow you to retreat in the direction of the Crystal Battle Fortress, if I don't come back within 48 hours, you can also withdraw to the Crystal Battle Castle first, if you can't see my trace in two weeks, It means that something happened to me, you can decide your own itinerary, whether you stay or leave, you can do it, and this fool airship will be handed over to the airship troops of Jin Yunguo to continue to serve on the battlefield."
Before the official flight, taking into account all kinds of unexpected factors, Zhang Tie must explain everything clearly to the people on the airship, the battlefield situation is changing rapidly, don't talk about himself, even if a knight-level person comes to the Cernes war zone, there may not be any accidents.
Listening to Zhang Tie's order as if he was giving his last words, a bunch of people in the command cabin looked at each other, and finally focused everyone's attention on the first mate of the airship, after Zhang Tie personally drove the glider out of the airship, the first officer acted on the airship as the captain of the airship.
The first mate looked at Zhang Tie, there was admiration from the bottom of his heart in his eyes, and there was also dignified, every crew member on the Fool knew very well what kind of risks to take in driving a glider in the Cernes Theater of Operations, it can be said that anyone who dared to drive a glider in the Cernes Theater was almost the same as a daredevil, even if the Fool airship had just come to the theater for only one day, but everyone still heard of a nickname of the air stormtrooper owned by the glider pilot in the theater of war.
This is the profession with the highest mortality rate in the entire theater of operations, and its mortality rate has exceeded that of the stormtroopers in the theater regiments.
No one thought that Zhang Tie would really want to drive the airship to play for his life, so everyone's mood is a little complicated, and some people still can't believe it and drive a glider to fight with the Winged Demon, this kind of crazy thought, I'm afraid even a madman doesn't dare to think about it.
But the captain of the Fool Airship was about to do such a crazy thing.
Whether this is a madman or a fool no one knows "Before making such an adventure, I think you'd better determine your flight area, captain" Under the gaze of everyone, the first mate, who spoke on behalf of everyone, considered it for a while, and drew a triangular area on the periphery of the cruising area of the airship designated by Zhang Tie, "If you can fly in this area, the Fool can echo you from afar, this is the safest way" Zhang Tie smiled, "I understand what you mean, but you must know that sometimes for a bird, the best protection is the sky, not the nest, I am confident in my own driving glider technology, I am also confident in my own strength, even if I have an accident, I believe that I can return to the crystal battle castle safely, you don't have to worry about this, the best cooperation for me is to survive, like a bird's nest in the wind and rain tenaciously survive, don't be blown off the tree by the wind, When I come back, I can still see you, and when I want to strike again, you can still send me into the sky, this is my nest in the Cernes war zone, understand?"
"Understood," the first mate of the airship took a deep breath.
"Everyone on board the Fool won't let you down" "Then, just wish me good luck," Zhang Tie laughed A few minutes later, in the drop cabin of the glider at the bottom of the airship, all the people who could come over on the Fool airship at this moment came over, and the airship crew in the drop cabin checked every detail of the glider with 120,000 serious spirits before letting Zhang Tie sit on it, and everyone looked at Zhang Tie with complicated eyes After putting on the flight suit, he sat in the cockpit of the glider and nodded outside.
Compare a thumbs up position.
"Open the Hatch" With the first mate's order, several crew members in the launch cabin quickly opened the hatch.
Seeing that the hatch was fully opened, a strong wind poured in at once, Zhang Tie didn't say much, just nodded to those who were watching him, and the whole glider popped out of the Fool airship along the glide rail "Salute" The first mate on the airship roared angrily, and everyone saluted Zhang Tie.
When the glider fell off the airship, Zhang Tie had a feeling that the fish had returned to the sea, and the glider was like a javelin thrown into the water by the airship, and at the moment when the glider left the airship, the speed of the glider was already the same as that of the fool's airship, reaching a speed of 150 kilometers per hour in an instant.
Just a few seconds later, Zhang Tie, who felt that the glider had stepped on the left pedal of the glider like a fish diving into the ocean current, and at the same time the elevator in his hand was pressed down, and the whole glider flew out to the left like a light petrel, and after flying out of a few hundred meters, he felt a rising hot airflow, Zhang Tie stepped on the right pedal of the glider, raised the steering stick, and the whole glider began to climb quickly in the hot airflow, in the shocked eyes of all the crew on the airship, A beautiful "U" was drawn around the airship from bottom to top, and finally flew over the airship's airbag and flew north "How can the captain cut into the hot air flow so quickly, and can actually make such an action at once" In the airship drop cabin, a crew member opened his mouth and looked at the glider driven by Zhang Tie in a daze around the airship.
"Well, that's a coincidence," replied one of the people next to him, muttering to himself.
The glider is so simple to sail that for every crew member on the airship, it is just like a sailor mastering a rubber dinghy, which is a skill that every crew member must know.
When the steering stick is pulled back, the elevator will swing up, the nose of the glider will be up, and when the steering stick is pushed forward, the elevator will swing down, and the nose of the glider will be downward; Step on the left pedal, the rudder will swing left, the nose will be left, step on the right pedal, the rudder will swing right, the basic driving of the glider with the nose to the right is so simple, turning over and over is up and down, left and right four controls, not to mention adults, is a child, learning ten minutes can almost learn.
But the control of the glider is extremely difficult, the most difficult, is the judgment, grasp and use of various air currents in the air, those invisible various air flows, such as terrain dynamic updraft, wave updraft, gyro updraft, thermal updraft, etc., is the glider can fly in the air power source, but also the only standard to test whether a glider pilot is excellent.
Those air currents are invisible, you can't see them, you can only rely on your actual experience and feelings to judge, and therefore, it may only take ten minutes to learn to fly a glider, but if you want to learn to use those invisible air currents, so that your glider's driving intentions can fit with those air currents, and let those air currents use for your own use, this kung fu may take at least ten years of training to make it possible for you to master some.
The mastery and use of air currents in the air is the only criterion for determining the level of a person flying a glider, and under this criterion, the gap between a novice and a master is as big as the gap between a zero-level warrior and a tenth-level strong warrior.
In this day and age, people measure the level of a person flying a glider with four data, which are the longest time in the air, the longest flight distance, the highest climb record and the average speed of the triangular route.
Under these four data, the gap between novices and experts is clear at a glance.
A novice who has just learned to fly a glider has a maximum time of only about half an hour, the longest flight distance is less than 40 kilometers, the highest climb record is less than 1,000 meters, and the average speed of the triangular route is also less than 50 kilometers per hour.
The same glider, under the same driving conditions, if it is like a sparrow in the hands of a novice, then, in the hands of a top master, it is an iron-winged eagle that can be proud of the sky.
The maximum time in the air can be more than 70 hours, the longest flight distance can be more than 2,000 kilometers, the highest climbing record can be more than 15,000 meters, and the average speed of the triangle route is more than 220 kilometers per hour.
"The speed of the captain's glider has reached more than 300 kilometers" Just when everyone below was still reminiscing about the beautiful U-shaped tumble just now, the sound of the observation post above the airship was transmitted through the sound tube to the drop bay below, and everyone in the drop cabin was stunned again.
"It's too fast, how could it be possible to reach such a speed in such a short time," muttered the airship's first mate.
There was silence in the drop cabin, and no one could answer Zhang Tie didn't know what kind of impression he had left on the Fool airship just in a short period of time, and he didn't feel that he had done anything too special, he was just flying according to his feelings.
The air currents in the air, Zhang Tie found that like those currents in the sea, Shui You's body brought him a super ability to sense the water current, and at this moment, it also acted on the air currents in the air.
Zhang Tie didn't know what the reason was, maybe it had something to do with the fact that both were fluids, or it was the effect of the induction of water vapor in the air current, but there was no doubt that the feeling was the same.
This sense of sensation does not come from the touch of the skin and body, but from the natural extension of one's own spiritual power outside one's own body.
For a moment, Zhang Tie almost thought that he was not flying a glider, but returned to the sea he was familiar with, although this glider will certainly not be like he controls his body in the sea, but the feeling of being free and easy is the same, flying in the sky under the action of air currents and flying under the ocean under the action of ocean currents, there are many similarities between the two, and Zhang Tie feels that many experiences and truths are also the same.
For example, in the sea, the way to achieve the maximum speed of your body is not to follow the current, but to quickly intersperse the places where the current produces whirls and undulations, so that you can gain more strength, or use a snake-like path between different currents to constantly change your direction and turn, so that you can constantly cut from one current to another, which will be incredibly fast.
In the sky, when driving the glider, Zhang Tie found that these principles are the same, even the shape of many currents in the ocean and the most of these thermals in the sky are similar, the currents complete the rotation in the ocean, while the thermals in the sky are like bubbles, both of which are existing and flowing in a certain circular state.
Zhang Tie didn't know how others could distinguish between masters and novices, but in terms of feeling, he felt that as long as he wanted, he could stay in the sky for a very, very long time just like in the ocean, and he could fly far away.
Soon after leaving the Fool, Zhang Tie lowered his flight altitude and speed, controlling his altitude to about three thousand meters above the ground, and the speed was about the same as that of an airship, and then flew towards the north, and at his feet, the burned villages on the Cernes Plain kept passing under his feet, and sometimes the wreckage of a large airship could be seen.
Just half an hour later, in the distant sky, Zhang Tie saw a few black dots, and those black dots also looked at Zhang Tie, and then flew towards Zhang Tie all of a sudden:
