Film and Television World Life Record

A dozen miles away from the town, a group of Japanese soldiers, about three or four hundred strong, were moving away.

Looking down at the town, Li Mu's heart pounded, and he had a bad feeling. He reduced his speed and altitude again and flew over the town.

The scene before him caused Li Mu, who was not usually easily swayed by emotions, to feel a surge of hot blood rush to his head, and he became unusually angry.

Not a single living person could be seen in the entire town. Ruins and corpses littered the ground. On a small street, many bodies lay scattered about, their blood staining the ground red and then congealing into a purplish-black color.

There were men and women, old people, women, and children. The men's mouths were open, their bodies contorted. The women's clothes were tattered, many of them having been violated by those beasts and then stabbed with bayonets, their eyes wide open, dying with their eyes wide open. There were also children hanging from trees... It was all so tragic.

Hundreds of meters away, Li Mu could almost smell the gunpowder and blood on the ground. The gloomy sky made his heart feel even heavier, and his chest felt tight.

At this point, the little notebook could no longer be considered human; it had become a beast devoid of humanity, completely exposing its dark side.

When killing wild animals, one must not be lenient.

With a pull of the control stick, the plane rapidly climbed, quickly reaching an altitude of three thousand meters, and flew towards the direction the Japanese had gone.

A little over a minute later, the Japanese troops were almost in sight. Li Mu dove down and dropped five 50-kilogram aerial bombs at the Japanese.

Over there, the Japanese soldiers also heard the buzzing of airplanes. Since the start of the war, they had maintained air superiority and assumed it was one of their own planes.

When the plane flew over them hundreds of meters above their heads, they realized something was wrong. Five aerial bombs had already been dropped, and the Japanese troops were thrown into chaos, running and dodging in all directions.

Unfortunately, it was discovered too late. A few seconds later, five aerial bombs, weighing a total of 250 kilograms, exploded on the ground.

Like a thunderclap, the ground trembled, and the Japanese troops were swept away as if being harvested like wheat, clearing out a large area.

The Japanese soldiers seemed to be terrified; some ran around wildly, shouting and yelling, while others sat there blankly.

Others reacted quickly and organized everyone to take cover from the plane.

Looking at the scene before him, Li Mu felt that not enough people had died, not enough suffering had occurred. The plane circled once in the air, turned its nose around, mounted two 12.7mm Browning machine guns, and swooped down again towards the Japanese soldiers.

Two 12.7mm Browning machine guns opened fire instantly. Bullets, like two fiery snakes, swept across the Japanese soldiers on the ground.

The Japanese soldiers on the ground were thrown into disarray once more, scattering and fleeing for cover. Li Mu, however, was not about to let them get away with it. The plane circled once, changed direction, set up its machine gun, and swooped down to straf the enemy again.

After three or four such attacks, some of the Japanese soldiers realized that this was not working and began to organize their forces to evade while simultaneously fighting back.

Li Mu swooped down again, and two fire snakes swept towards the group of people who had just gathered. While the other side dodged, they also began to fire back.

Hearing the sound of bullets hitting the wings and belly of the plane, Li Mu calmed down a lot. Although it was not a large-caliber heavy machine gun, it was not impossible to shoot down the plane with ordinary firearms bullets.

Just as he thought of this, several more planes flew over from a distance. Li Mu immediately recognized them as the ones from the Japanese. The reinforcements arrived so quickly.

Several planes suddenly dispersed, seemingly trying to encircle them. Li Mu looked at the Japanese soldiers on the ground, who had suffered more than half casualties, and finally felt a lot of the anger he had been holding in.

With a pull of the control stick, the plane instantly soared into the sky, leaping out before the Japanese planes could encircle it.

As a novice, there's no need to try to be a hero and engage in close combat with the Japanese. Even if your fighter jet is superior to theirs, shooting down one or two Japanese planes could easily put you in a dangerous situation, making it a losing proposition.

He knew his own importance and that he could play a more significant role outside the battlefield, far surpassing what a few Japanese planes could achieve.

With these thoughts in mind, the fighter jet had already soared to an altitude of ten thousand meters and flown into the distance. The Japanese fighter jets now only had a top speed of a little over three hundred kilometers per hour, and their performance in all aspects was also much worse; how could they possibly catch up? In no time, they completely lost sight of them and had no choice but to return to base.

Chapter 424 Wonderful Thoughts

On the way back to base, Li Mu's mind was still filled with the tragic scene in the town. Even now, thinking about those horrifying scenes still made his blood boil. Those Japanese devils deserved to die.

However, Li Mu, who was familiar with history, knew that such scenes were not isolated cases; they occurred all over the country, and some were even more outrageous.

Taking a deep breath, and thinking about his mission, Li Mu realized that simply focusing on development wasn't a solution. He began to consider how he could cause some trouble for Xiaobenzi.

Send troops... send the security regiment to the front line? That's not a good idea. There are nearly a million troops gathered at the Xuzhou front. The security regiment, with its small number of men, can only play a limited role.

The security force's greatest role is to protect the territory and its people, and it is also the cornerstone of Nanyang's prosperity and stability. If it is sent out to cripple the enemy or leave Nanyang vulnerable, given Nanyang's current prosperity, who knows what kind of wolves and tigers it might attract? This is not a good thing.

Li Mu pondered deeply, and suddenly an idea surfaced in his mind, taking root and sprouting uncontrollably. His breathing became a little heavy. If this really could work, then it would be truly…

What would it feel like to have bombs falling from the sky? If we could retrieve aerial bombs from space and drop them directly, given the capacity of space, what would the effect be? It would be even more powerful than a bomber.

However, while the idea is good, its implementation is not so easy. First, there are many limitations to retrieving things from space, such as not being able to retrieve items through objects.

Just like if your door is locked and you're standing outside, you can't make things appear directly inside your house through the space between the wall and the door.

The same applies to fighter jets; you can't let aerial bombs appear directly beneath a fighter jet.

Even inside the sealed cabin, separated by the canopy glass, if something can be retrieved, it can only be inside the cabin; it cannot magically appear outside the fighter jet.

However, this isn't a major issue; the canopy can be opened in the air. Although the thick fuselage still prevents items from being visible underneath the aircraft, those inside the cockpit can still observe several directions.

With this in mind, Li Mu lowered his flight altitude to 3,000 meters and reduced his speed to just over 100 kilometers per hour.

Soon, the transparent glass window of the cockpit was slowly opened, and a strong gust of wind blew in. Li Mu felt it for a moment and thought, "It's alright, I can handle it." Even if the speed were a little faster, he could still manage.

He used to watch war dramas where Japanese soldiers flew their fighter planes with the canopies seemingly open, exposing their upper bodies to the air. He thought it was just poorly filmed because the air force rarely sees this now.

Having flown fighter jets of this era, I've found that they are indeed necessary. Nowadays, aircraft don't have radar or positioning systems; determining direction and location relies entirely on the naked eye.

The fully enclosed cockpit greatly affects visibility, and fighter pilots often need to open the canopy in the air to determine their direction.

Furthermore, modern airplanes are far less advanced than those of later generations, and pilots primarily communicate using gestures, especially during formation flying. Opening the canopy in these situations allows the two pilots to see each other more easily, facilitating communication.

In addition, many fighter planes during World War II did not have ejection escape systems. To parachute out, one had to climb out of the cockpit, and the chance of escape was fleeting. Opening the hatch during combat was also a way to give oneself a chance to escape.

Moreover, in addition to air combat between fighter jets, in ground attacks, such as bombing, it is often necessary to open the hatch to obtain a better field of vision and improve aiming speed and accuracy.

That's just how the technology is these days; most of the time, we can only rely on the naked eye.

Of course, there are some conditions for opening the canopy during flight. For example, the flight cannot be too high. If you are at an altitude of 10,000 meters, opening the canopy raises several questions: Can you withstand the cold air at high altitude? Can you withstand the lack of oxygen?

On the other hand, the flight speed cannot be too fast. If the speed of this aircraft is increased to the maximum, 480 kilometers per hour, and the canopy is opened, the strong airflow will definitely press down like a knife. It is hard to say whether you can breathe. No one can stand such pressure.

In short, when opening the hatch in the air, one cannot fly too high, preferably no more than 5,000 meters.

Secondly, it cannot fly too fast, and it cannot exceed the limits of one's own body.

……

Looking at the blue sky, I reached out and felt the airflow outside the window. The fighter jet slowed down again, reaching a speed of 80 kilometers per hour.

With a thought, a pencil from the spatial dimension appeared in his hand, then returned to the spatial dimension the next moment.

Li Mu stretched his hand far out the window, and with a thought, the pencil from before appeared more than a meter away from his hand.

The pencil was carried away by the airflow generated by the fighter jet and disappeared in an instant.

Li Mu frowned and tried several more times, but the results were still not very good.

While space is useful, it also has many limitations. In the past, you had to physically touch the space to put or take items out.

After arriving in this world, with a spatial volume of 60,000 cubic meters, the ability to store or release items into the space has also become much stronger.

However, it can only be deployed and retracted from a distance of two or three meters, and there can be nothing obstructing the way.

Two or three meters is a tight gap. In this day and age, fighter jets have very large wings, and the cockpit is located above and behind the wing. If an aerial bomb suddenly appears two or three meters away from the cockpit, it is very easy to hit the fighter jet.

Even if you are extremely careful, you might not bump into it even once in ten times, or even once in a hundred times.

However, if this method is indeed chosen for the future, the bombs retrieved from space will be aerial bombs. Even if an aerial bomb is triggered by a collision, and it only hits once in a thousand attempts, the moment it's triggered, it's gone with a deafening roar.

Li Mu was certain that if he mastered this bomb-throwing method, he would be unable to resist frequently visiting the notebook, and the number of times he threw bombs would easily exceed a thousand.

What might be a very small probability for others means that he will soon be out of a job.

This method of bombing means that the aerial bombs are placed too close to the aircraft, making it easy for them to glide and graze. This is definitely not acceptable; we must think of other solutions.

The plane landed at the airport soon. Li Mu pushed open the glass hatch, took off his flight helmet, unbuckled his seatbelt, braced himself with both hands on the hatch, and jumped out cleanly and steadily, landing safely.

Ground staff quickly came over for inspection and maintenance. Li Mu shook his neck and stretched his legs, his joints cracking. Being cramped in the small space of the airport wasn't a very pleasant experience.

After resting for a while back at the villa and having lunch, Li Mu's mind raced, and he began to think of some clever methods. How could he retrieve the aerial bomb from a safe distance in mid-air?

He actually thought of that.

There's a unique aspect to the spatial storage of items, which might seem a bit idealistic: some things, even if not connected, can be considered a whole if you treat them as such. When storing or placing items in the space, you can store or place them as a whole.

For example, tens of thousands of barrels of gasoline piled together, no matter how many there are or how much space they occupy, can all be stored in one go and released all at once, maintaining their original shape, as long as there is enough space.

Then...

Thinking of this, Li Mu took out a pen and a piece of string from his spatial storage and tied the string to the pen.

Then he placed the pen on the ground, took the string and stepped back, stretching the string taut; it was over four meters long. With a sudden thought, the pen and string, maintaining their original shape, were stored away in his spatial dimension.

Then, Li Mu went to another room. With a thought, the thread and pen, retaining their original shapes, reappeared. One end was in his hand, and the other end was more than four meters away.

The experiment was a success! Great!

If what was tied wasn't a pen, but an aerial bomb, bound with string and stored in space in this shape, could it also be used in this way to make the aerial bomb appear more than four meters away when it takes to the sky?

Next, Li Mu began the experiment again. This time, he changed the thread to one that was more than five meters long, tied one end to a pen, and stretched it into a straight line on the ground. Then, he retracted the pen and thread into the space according to this shape.

Then, after changing its position again, the pen and line were taken out in their original shape.

The experimental results were still good.

Li Mu was excited. He spent the next half day conducting various tests and finally had a better understanding of the situation.

However, this is ultimately a shortcut and cannot be without limitations.

Li Mu tested it many times, and the furthest distance was about seven and a half meters. Within seven and a half meters, he could use this method to make an object appear instantly in his line of sight.

Speaking of which, it's pretty cool to fly a fighter jet, wave your hand, and have an aerial bomb appear seven and a half meters away.

Next, Li Mu began making them. He went to the basement of the small villa, took out some cotton quilts and cushions from his storage space, and placed them on the floor.
