Chương 29: New Journey
"Vodka-1, you are allowed to take off."
As the instruction was given from the tower, the IL-76 became the first one to depart.
Leaving the remaining 4 fighters on the ground.
And they are now ready to depart and then form two two-plane formations in the sky.
"Sukhoi-1, you are allowed to take off."
The plane that is ready on the runway immediately starts to move, accelerate, and take off.
Just after it retracts the landing gear, it suddenly pulls up sharply.
The scene scares everyone, as in the experience, any plane trying to do that will fall back to the ground immediately due to insufficient speed.
But this time, it does not happen, the plane is ascending like a rocket, gaining altitude in just a breathtaking.
Luckily, the other three planes do not do what Sukhoi-1 did just now, it seems like Sukhoi-1 wants to show off his skills.
Within 5 minutes, four of them had already taken off, caught up with that IL-76 taken off earlier, and escorted him from left to right.
They soon crossed the border and flew towards the frontline.
One hour later, they finally reached the frontline.
"Sukhoi-1 here, everyone starts lower down your altitude, we have reached the frontline."
As per the Sukhoi-1 order, everyone including IL-76 started lowering their altitude from 10,000 meters, which is suitable for them to use a cruise speed, to an altitude of only 2,000 meters.
"Sukhoi-3, Sukhoi-4, do your mission, and regroup with us when Vodka-1 starts to return."
"Sukhoi-3/Sukhoi-4 copy, out."
Two fighters immediately leave the formation and fly towards their mission area.
Flying different directions to the few remain.
At the altitude they are now, they can see the undead killed by various weapons, their white bones cover the entire plain.
"It's spectacular."
One of the pilots said.
Not long, they arrived above a certain unit.
"Vodka-1 ready to airdrop."
The IL-76 rear hatch slowly opens, then a few big airdrops and also personnel leave the plane.
A few white flowers form from the parachute and quickly appear in the sky.
The airdrop landed precisely on the ground troops' base.
Before the big air drop landed on the ground, a burst of fire erupted from the parachute above it.
It is the rocket thrust reverser system, to reduces the damage to the airdrop caused by impact during landing.
Personnel who also landed quickly disassembled the packages and started assembling them.
A device with a huge flat shape quickly raised.
No one knows that this seemingly harmless device can cause more damage to the undead than any weapon.
A wave invisible to the naked eye was emitted by this device.
The undead that were charging ahead suddenly stopped, and then fell without any warning.
This is the latest supersonic ultrasound waves weapon that was just developed by the Soviets to especially encounter the undead based on the data they get in Leningrad.
And today it proves that it works effectively.
The IL-76 starts to return just after it finishes its airdrop mission, by this time Sukhoi-3 and 4 also return to the formation.
"Great, we will return now."
They then started to raise back their altitude and prepare to turn and return to base.
Seeing the mission was going to end and nothing had happened, Sukhoi-1 felt a sense of loss.
Their planes only have 10 hardpoints to carry missiles, more than fighters in the past, but less than CAS like Su-24 and 25.
But what makes them different, is their newly installed and experimental radar.
N001 mech radar, which is specialized for air superiority fighters like them, but unfortunately, they did not meet any enemy flying object, giving no chance for them to test their radar.
What Sukhoi-3 and 4 mission just now is to look for some undead flying object to test their radar.
Just as everyone thought that nothing going to happen, something happened.
Many targets were suddenly detected on their radar.
"Everyone pay attention, we got a job to do."
Four of them quickly fly over IL-76 and head to their enemy.
These targets are dragon knights led by Draven, to check what is happening on the undead in this direction.
Coincidently, they met.
The experimental radar able them to track the enemy 100km away, and Draven and his knight still do not know they have been locked.
"Target locked!"
The other plane also reported that they locked the target, Sukhoi-1 then ordered it to fire.
As he pressed the fire button, the R-27 missile, another experimental weapon, below its wing immediately flew toward the target, and then another one.
The radar itself can track 10 targets simultaneously but only lock and fire 2 at the same time.
Still, a big improvement compares to the past radar.
Draven continues flying, and suddenly, he realizes something is flying towards him.
Just as he wants to look clearly at what is, the object has already reached his fast and exploded.
Another Marshal of the Nazg died.
Dragon Knights has the same ending too.
"All enemies have been eliminated."
After checking no enemies have left, they also start returning to base.
Today, ground forces that are still defending from the undead hordes, or cleaning inside their area, realize some of the undead that seem like have intelligence start falling back.
The hordes also start slowing down and becoming less.
Of course, no one knows that because these few planes kill their marshals, and Voren has ordered them to retreat to prepare for battle in the future.
Noon, they have already returned to the base in Leningrad and landed orderly.
When it was the turn for Sukhoi-1 to land, an accident happened.
Sukhoi-1 suddenly found that there was something wrong with its control system, and had difficulties controlling it.
"Sukhoi-1 Eject immediately."
Sounds from the tower come into Sukhoi-1's ears.
The plane speeds increase rapidly as it is lowering altitude now.
Sukhoi-1 did not listen to instructions from the tower and started looking for where the problem came from.
"Sukhoi-1 eject now!"
The people in the tower began to shout anxiously.
Sukhoi-1 looks at the altitude, it becoming lower and lower.
He suddenly thinks of something, he quickly disconnects the fly-by-wire control system switch and the angle of attack limiter switch and quickly pulls the lever to the bottom.
And then something shocks everyone happens, the nose of the aircraft is tilted up to 110° to 120°.
When the nose of the aircraft begins to sink, he immediately increases the thrust to prevent the course from stalling out.
The aircraft then returns to level flight, together is the decrease of its speed.
Sukhoi-1 then again tries to turn on the fly-by-wire control system switch and the angle of attack limiter switch, hoping he can gain back control.
This time, no accident happened, but the action he did just now shocked everyone.
The base commander looking at these happen, felt excited.
It is not the first time he has seen a plane do this maneuver, but the first time he sees the maneuver is done, and is much more perfectly done by a plane from the Motherland.
He then asked someone beside him,
"Anyone know anything about this plane?"
"Sorry comrade commander, everything about the plane is confidential, but I heard the pilot called the plane T-10."
The shocked one also included Sukhoi-1, the time he did this action he almost fainted due to the high G, and he was lucky it did not happen.
The plane slowly landed on the base.
Sukhoi-1 walks out of the plane, and then he sees the base commander walking towards him.
"Great one comrade, you just scared me when you did that cobra maneuver, what is your name?"
Sukhoi-1 sees the rank of the commander is a general, so stops and salutes to him,
"Colonel Viktor Pugachev, reporting to Comrade General."
The general then smiled and said,
"Comrade Colonel, believe me, the maneuver you did just now will be remembered by everyone."
-----
Moscow, Lubyanka.
In a newly built room underground, Chernov is having a meeting with Andropov.
Andropov first asks him a question.
"Colonel, how are you getting along with that girl from Karak lately?"
"Great comrade chairman, I reveal to her some information about our country as order."
"Good."
Andropov's expression suddenly changed and asked seriously.
"Then how about information from Karak and also the girl?"
Seeing Chernov's expression of wanting to say something but not wanting to say it, Andropov knew what he was thinking and added,
"Say everything you know, do not need to worry about being eavesdropped on by people from Karak, this new room is built with some materials that can block their magic."
After receiving Andropov's assurance, Chernov no longer had any worries.
"Comrade Chairman, then I will first start with Serina first."
"I believe there is a reason why the Karak will send her here, her eyes seem to be able to see something we can not see, and sometimes she will just look at the sky without any reason. And for her ability, I have sufficient evidence to prove that it might be relating to mind, most probably mind reading."
"However, it is also very highly probable that we can bring her to our side. She is from a working-class family, when I was explaining the ideology of socialism, she was very interested and always asked me about it, like how socialism helps people to get away from poor and starvation, or making them willing to sacrifice themselves for their own country."
"She used to think we were also using some kind of magic that can brainwash our people. She told me in Karak, people are taught to think about self-interest, which in other words, is selfish. People will not dare to help each other because there might be a risk that the one you helped will stab you with a knife after you turn around, which will cause you to lose everything and you have no way to defend yourself even if you have asked for help from the government."
"The Karak now is still full of slaves to worked for the lord, and they do not even have basic human rights."
Andropov was very satisfied with Chernov's answer, not only possibly bringing magic into the USSR, but also from his answer he already got some brief information about Karak.
Seems like the Karak is some how have the ideology of capitalism, but more like a country in medieval times.
And people there might need some help from the Soviet Union, to liberate them.
"Continue about it Colonel, any information about their magic?"
"Yes, comrade chairman."
"I only have some limited information about magic from her, she does not want to let me know much about it. For the information now, there 7 tiers of wizards in Karak."
"The 1st tier is for people that have little or no magic, basically the ordinary people and slaves. The 2nd tier is for people who can apply magic on some things, usually all the soldiers in the army, where they can apply magic on their weapon, or formation together. 3rd are usually officers in the army, who can send messages directly at a limited distance, I believe it has the same function as our walkie-talkie."
"Starting from the 4th tier, I think we should pay more attention to it because they might have some serious threat on us. The 4th tier is more on those who have special abilities, like Serina, she once told me she was defined as 4th tier but her real strength is close to the 5th one. As for the 5th tier, she said she also did not know much about it, but one thing can be sure is that they are always able to deal some damage or effect in the area."
"I will need to apologize to you Comrade Chairman, for tier 6 and 7 one, I know nothing about it, Serina says she does not either or there might be the possibility that she is lying. The only thing she told me is that she once heard that the tier 7 wizard can destroy a city with a million population in just a moment."
"That's all I know comrade chairman. "
Andropov sitting opposite to him, noted down what he said silently.
A moment later, Andropov finished writing looked at Chernov, and said,
"Nice one Colonel, your information will help us a lot."
Chernov listen immediately attention to the spot and said,
"For the Motherland!"
"At ease Colonel, what you said is closely the same as what people in the department analyze, I just want to double confirm with you."
Of course, there will be someone to analyze and report to Andropov every day, or else it will be stupid to just rely on one person.
"I have a mission for you. The Karak will be sending some military observer to our army to see how we fight, in exchange, we will be also sent to their army. Battle on their side has also begun, they have already begun their advancement on the orcs, I want you to be one of our military observers. Any problem about the upcoming mission?"
"No Comrade Chairman."
"Great, then you can start moving to Sevastopol, you will be going to Karak through the Navy, the Karak also informed us the girl will be following you all."
After Chernov leaves the room, Andropov has a call.
"Comrade Ustinov, you guys can start planning."
