Chapter 1591 Leonid's Defection 1)
"Buzz, buzz." As the starter roared, black smoke came out of the exhaust pipe, and the Allison v-1710-63 engine was successfully started. With its start, the turbine let out a whistle-like whistle.
This engine has also been strengthened and has been modified. The United States has indeed made great contributions to the Soviets' victory in this war.
Then, Leonid slowly pushed the throttle lever forward, and as he accelerated, the entire plane began to involuntarily move forward.
At this time, the ground crew felt something abnormal and shouted outside: "The engine is normal, you can turn off the engine."
At this moment, Leonid released the brakes and the P-39 fighter began to slide forward.
"No, you can't take off without orders!" The ground crew ran a few steps and chased forward, but could not catch up with the plane.
After turning a corner in front, the plane aimed at the runway. Leonid pushed the throttle rod to his head, and as the engine roared, the maximum power of 1,325 horsepower burst out. The propeller in front turned wildly, and the fighter began to slide on the runway.
"No, Lieutenant Leonid is going to defect!" the ground officer shouted loudly, irritated.
Not bad, just to defect!
In Leonid's heart, there was no loyalty to the Soviets at all. As a second generation born in the family of officials, he had the style of a playboy.
It’s okay to have some experience of mingling with bandits in his early years, but later, he did something even more powerful, killing people.
The official statement was that at a military gathering, a group of young men drank happily. One of the sailors heard that Leonid had a very good shooting skills and pestered Leonid to reveal his hand: he used a pistol to knock off the bottle of wine on his head.
As a result, Leonid could not resist the sailor's tangle, so he picked up his pistol and knocked off the bottleneck of the bottle. But the sailor who had drunk too much thought this was not enough and said that he had to hit the bottle to count. Leonid had to fire a shot again, but it hit the sailor's eyebrows, and his brain splashed.
From this point of view, this sailor is too cheap and he is begging for shooting. As long as he uses his brain a little, he will know that this is nothing but nonsense. An ordinary sailor dares to provoke the second generation of officials?
The truth of the matter at that time would never be known. In short, according to discipline, Leonid needed to be shot.
As a result, Khrushchev begged Stalin, and finally let Leonid go, transformed into a pilot.
After entering the flight unit, Leonid restrained himself a little, flew carefully and trained carefully in the unit, and did not cause any trouble.
However, today, he set out on the road of no return without hesitation.
He doesn't want to die.
According to the Germans, just tomorrow, the German bombers will destroy the entire Moscow, and their high-altitude fighter unit will inevitably be ordered to intercept.
This is quite terrible. The Germans will send all their lives, and a large number of F190 fighters will rush up. Here, there are no more than 200 high-altitude fighters that can be deployed around Moscow.
What does this mean? They should sprinkle blood in the sky. After they have fired the shells, even if they hit them, they will continue to hit the enemy planes!
Leonid didn't want to do this, he wanted to live, after all, living is the best thing.
Then, there is only one way to defect.
Although he will definitely take off the plane in tomorrow's air battle and defection will be smoother, he dare not take risks. After all, tomorrow there will be fighter planes everywhere, and even if he hides at a low altitude, he will be caught up by the Germans and killed.
So, only now.
Before the war came, he flew his own plane at a very low altitude to land in Germany. He even found the target for landing in advance. In Kalinin, northern Moscow, there was a field airport for the Germans. He could arrive as long as he flew along the railway line.
Now that he has taken off, there is no way out. He just wants to survive. Besides, even Yakov has surrendered to the enemy, why can't he? Even if he is there, he will be entrusted with important tasks? What position will he get in this territory in the future?
Although he was still trembling in his heart, he still took off the engine. The engine's accelerator was opened to the maximum. After the engine took off, he began to climb upwards.
At the same time, the others behind were also shocked.
Varissi did not expect Leonid to defect. He just fooled himself into cheering up, and that was all a remark. Now, Leonid had no orders to take off forcibly, nor did he have an air strike alarm. There was no second reason besides defecting.
So he became angry.
"I'll go chase him!" Leonid shouted: "Come on, start the engine for me."
I have to say that the way the p-39 opens the door side is still beneficial, that is, it gets on and off the plane very quickly, and he almost stepped on the plane in a steadily step, then quickly flips the various electric doors and starts the engine.
With the rumbling sound, a stream of black smoke rushed out and his engine was started.
"Report to your superiors, Leonid has defected, I'll chase him!" Varissi poked his head out and said to a subordinate beside him.
Vitali Ivanovic Popkov did not expect that this was the last time he saw Varisi.
The throttle was fully opened and the runway was sliding onto the runway. The second p-39 was also in an emergency takeoff. At this time, two minutes had passed since the first Leonid's plane took off.
Seeing Varisi leave, Vitali couldn't help stamping her feet on the ground. This commander is really naive. He should send someone to chase him and stay here to stay. His approach is not in line with the identity of a commander!
"Leonid, please reply after receiving it." While accelerating the takeoff, Varisey turned on the radio and shouted to Leonid in front: "If you return now, I can pretend that nothing has happened. I order you to return immediately!"
"No, I don't want to go back and die. As long as I get off the plane, someone will catch me and I will be shot." Leonid's desperate voice came from the radio: "Moscow is going to be ruins, the Soviets are going to perish. I don't want to bury the Soviets with burial!"
The entire fleet's radio was on a channel. At this time, on the command tower of the airport, the flight squadron leader Dorgushen, who arrived here after learning the news, couldn't help but punch the wall. Leonid was the pilot in his squadron and didn't see anything, but he didn't expect that at this time, he would be such a coward!
