Cage Mountain, outside the thorny town.

“Oh, Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Browsing the snow into the warehouse, Goode sneezed hard.He put the heavy bullet box in his hand by the plane and sat up ass down, "I hate winter ... it always reminds me of the days of exile."

"No one likes the evil moon, but I have to say that the temperature has not even been touched by the cold winter side."Finkin skimmed his mouth and opened the wooden box from his back, "You should be glad that we are not far from the sea, and the effect of the evil moon is not so obvious - before your majesty has become the lord of the West, everyone does not know whether they can live to tomorrow every time they fall asleep."Not to mention exile, even if you hide in the house, you may be crushed by the snow and eventually suffocate in the snow.”

“Is the winterless moon so terrible?”

"Yes, and this situation was not completely resolved until his majesty brought the cement house, or else why did your lord Roland call the new king the "Winter City without winter"?Finkin shrugged, taking out the drums wrapped in the box and putting them in class one by one.

The fire was equipped with two machine guns, one in the head and one in the middle of the fuselage.Although they are all the latest general-purpose machine guns produced, the way of supply is very different.The fuse of the head is half-buried in the aircraft and uses a chain of bullets, so the bullet box is also made of metal, which needs to be completely removed when reloading.

The machine gun used by the rear shooter is fixed on a rotating rack, and the operation mode is exactly the same as that of the Mark I of the musket battalion, but the supply of bullets becomes a hundred-capacity saddle drum, which can be replaced manually in the air directly after playing.

Therefore, in order to ensure that each mission is full, no matter how many shots are fired after the aircraft lands, it needs to be re-arranged for ammunition.Although this step can be left to the ground staff, Goode prefers to do it himself - as long as he can touch the plane more, even if only for a moment, he does not want to miss such an opportunity.

At this time, a warm voice sounded outside the warehouse.

There is no doubt that there must be another trainee who passed the assessment and landed the plane unharmed on the runway.

Even with the snow, the eldest princess did not suspend the training.

She was even busier than before.

In addition to teaching new cadets how to fly, His Royal Highness takes them twice a day to patrol the northwestern region of Worry, and at night it is a theoretical lesson and problem discussion, almost never stopping.

Affected by her, everyone seems to have taken a breath, the training effect is better than in the winter, at least this week flew down, there is no trainer aircraft has ever been a crash situation.

After loading the new spring box into the engine room with his partner, Goode went to the window and sighed gently.

“What, think home?”Finkin came to ask.

He shook his head, “I’m just a little worried...”

“Worried about war or worried about distant sisters?”Finnkin smiled, “I remember her name was Rachel, didn’t she?”

“I’m afraid of being replaced!”Goode looked at each other unkindly.

“Why?”

“There are currently only four aircraft capable of operating, one of which is the Unicorn of His Highness Tilly, which means that we must be in the top three of all qualified persons in order to be eligible to fly the Skyfire.”Goode went back, looking at a lively training ground and whispered, "Our advantage is the actual combat experience, but now we have not even seen the shadow of the devil, so as long as one or two geniuses among the new people, we are afraid to lean back."

Probably did not expect that he was worried about this thing, the partner paused for a while before he couldn't help but say, "Hello, you think too much, even if it is a live bullet target, it is also an experience - you did not listen to your Highness, these thousands of bullets put into the musket camp, but to practice for a month or two!" 」

“But we’re not shooting well, are we?”

“This...” Finny was dumb for a moment.

Although the air knights have not really met the enemy so far, the machine gun on the plane has been fired several times - Tilly did not let them bring the ammunition back, but will find a target on the way back to pour out the bullet, the right as a live-fire drill, sometimes a balloon released at hand, and sometimes a large tree on the top of the mountain.

This also led Goode to find that his talent in shooting was far inferior to his flying ability.At the same time, he also heard that there were many talented people among the newly recruited students, one of whom seemed to be Manfield's newcomers, who had been recognized by the instructor in just a few days.

His concern is not blind.

Unfortunately, the operation skills can also find time to practice on the simulation table repeatedly, and the shooting is completely fed by bullets.

“Oh—”

Suddenly, a sharp alarm sounded over the airport!

Goode and Finkin looked at each other, and the look could not change.

Once the alarm goes off, all training must be stopped, the runway is emptied, and the empty knight must be picked to go to the airport command post for the first time.

garrisoned in the town for more than a week, such an emergency call number or the first time.

The two did not hesitate, and at the same time, they ran to the command post.

...

Soon, more than 30 people gathered in the temporary combat room.

"Just a minute ago, I received the news of an iron axe that a demonic team had appeared two hundred kilometres north of the Whispering Fort."Pointing to the map on the wall, Her Royal Highness said, “The message was delivered through animal messengers, and the secret letter said that a group of fleeing refugees had been found nearby – and the devil’s purpose was probably that.The garrison of the Winds of the Fort alone would have taken more than two days to march, and it was probably too late to arrive.”

“This is the most suitable battlefield for the empty knights, except for the fire, no one can fight across such a long distance in two or three hours.”Even the enemy could not imagine that this sky will one day be the exclusive domain of the devil!Now listen to my orders, empty knights, and set off at once!"

“Follow me, Your Highness!”The people spoke in unison.

Goode can't help but clenched his fist, and he finally waited for a real opportunity!

Back in the warehouse, the ground crew had completed the preparation for the take-off.

He climbed three steps into the cab, skillfully opened the oil and circuit valves, and rotated the starter - under the traction of the motor, the head spewed a strand of black smoke, and completed the first cycle in the thumping sound.

Once the cycle begins, the piston host will continue to run at high speed.

Goode put on the eye shield, and in the waving of the crowd, pressed the lever forward.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the four biplanes roared across the runway in turn, rising up against the flying snowflakes and flying toward the north.
