Chapter 1425 - The Stars Are Falling Like Rain

Chapter 1425: The Stars Are Falling Like Rain
You’ll jump if I jump? Do you want the plane to crash and die?
Huo Shaoheng reprimanded him coldly.
This is an order! If you say one more word, you’ll be punished by military law!

The captain was shoved away by Huo Shaoheng.
The man, who was more than 1.80 meters tall, reddened his eyes as he stood before Huo Shaoheng.
He wiped his face with the back of his hand and pulled up the parachute beside his seat. He unfastened his seat belt with a bang and left the cockpit without looking back.
When he reached the outer room, he waved his hand.
Follow me, let’s parachute jump!

Parachuting in bad weather was a necessary training item for these aviation soldiers.
Huo Shaoheng’s four military soldiers were not ordinary soldiers. They had undergone special training in all aspects of water, land, and air before they could become Huo Shaoheng’s soldiers.
Without saying a word, they carried their parachutes and lined up at the cabin door.
The captain stood by the cabin door and looked at everyone.
I’ll count one, two, three. You jump first!

He pointed at the vice-captain and spoke.
That was his deputy and he obeyed his orders completely.

Yes, Captain!

The vice-captain saluted him, then put on his night vision goggles and helmet and tightened his parachute.

One, two, three!
the captain counted, and pulled open the cabin door.
A cool breeze blew against his face, along with water vapor.
The co-pilot stuck his legs together, and dived out of the cabin door into the vast night.
The female flight attendant was next.
She saluted the captain and dived down as well.
Then came Huo Shaoheng’s four orderlies. They were still calm and orderly and jumped down one by one.
They were still in the eye of the storm, but the closer they got to land, the weaker the storm became.
The rain had almost stopped, and the clouds were gradually dispersing. The land with flashing lights was right in front of them.
The captain spoke to Huo Shaoheng through the walkie-talkie,
Chief, everyone has jumped. I’m jumping.
then, he jumped out of the cabin door.
They were less than three kilometers from the ground, so this distance was not difficult for them.
They did not know where they were, but judging from the lights on the ground, it should not be far from Rihe city, or in other words, it should be within the range of Rihe city.
This was because only the people of the Rihe city military base knew that their private plane had arrived.
One by one, dark blue parachutes bloomed in the dark night sky. Their walkie-talkies began to adjust frequency to get in touch with the ground troops.
Military vehicles drove out of the Rihe City military base and rushed to the spot where they had parachuted.
At the same time, General Ji, who had been nervously watching the development of the situation in the capital, received a call from the Rihe city military command.
Reporting to the chief, Major General Huo’s private plane has appeared. All the people on the plane have parachuted out. Over and out!

General Ji heaved a huge sigh of relief and immediately ordered,
When Major General Huo and the others successfully land, have him video chat with me immediately!


Yes, Sir!

However, these people received the captain, co-captain, and female flight attendants of the private plane. They also found the four orderly soldiers but found that Huo Shaoheng was still in the plane and had not jumped out.
An urgent call was made to General Ji’s office.
Reporting, sir! Major General Huo has not jumped out of the plane! Major General Huo has not jumped out of the plane!

General Ji’s heart, which had just calmed down, was in his throat again.
…
At that moment, Huo Shaoheng was still calmly piloting the plane. Although both engines had been switched off and the radar had been disabled, he relied on his superb piloting skills to find a loophole in the turbulence of the storm.
A plane was faintly discernible in the clouds and gradually fell to the ground.
The scene on the ground was already clearly visible.
Huo Shaoheng could see that there was a river here. He planned to crash-land on the river so that he could save the plane and allow the technicians to investigate the cause of the accident, as well as protect himself as much as possible.
However, just as he drove the military plane out of the eye of the storm and began to fly over the river, the portable surface-to-air missile launcher at Rihe city military base suddenly began to rumble.

What’s going on?!


Enemy intelligence?!

Rihe City was equipped with a full set of anti-air equipment. Although it was used for the exercise, everything was real, especially the portable surface-to-air missile launcher. The missiles inside were real.
It was originally designed for military parades and exercises.

The exercise hasn’t started yet? Why is it spinning?

The combat personnel responsible for monitoring the anti-aircraft equipment were confused.
However, the computer in front of them did show that there was an enemy situation. The enemy’s Air Force was approaching their base step by step!

Radar Station! Radar station! What’s going on over there?! Why is our portable surface-to-air missile launcher moving?!

The atmosphere in the air defense combat room at the Rihe City drill base instantly became tense.
The combat staff at the radar station nervously checked their equipment, but they didn’t detect anything unusual.

Reporting! There’s nothing unusual on our side, the radar shows that everything is normal!


So that’s the problem with the air defense system?

The combat staff at the Rihe City air defense combat room suddenly discovered the problem.

Not good! The surface-to-air missile is locked onto Major General Huo’s private plane!

They already knew that Major General Huo’s private plane was in danger.
Moreover, the base had just sent a car out to meet the parachutists.
They did not expect that Major General Huo would still be on the plane after everyone else had jumped!
Everyone was touched by such a major general, but now that they thought about it, they felt cold from head to toe…
If anything happened to Major General Huo, how much damage would it bring the country and the military?!
What more, those guys from the special operations forces would tear down their base!
…

Hurry up and cancel the portable surface-to-air missile launch over there!

However, the cancellation function on the control system didn’t seem to work. No matter how hard they pressed, the portable surface-to-air missile launchpad was still aimed in the direction of Huo Shaoheng’s private plane.
The system automatically aimed and locked onto the infrared.
Surface-to-air missiles used infrared guidance to track and hit the target according to the heat source.
The portable missiles installed in their base were light and powerful. They could be removed from the launcher at any time and fired on their shoulders.
They had specially equipped the portable surface-to-air missile with a simple launcher at the Rihe City military base. It was completely electronically controlled. The original intention was to conduct an all-electronic air combat red-and-blue exercise.
However, they did not expect that before the official start of the exercise, this system would act as if it possessed its own consciousness. Not only could it automatically search for the target, but it could also lock onto the target automatically and activate the missile system!
The computer program control personnel at the Rihe City military base frantically entered commands, but they were not accepted by the system.

What should we do?! We can’t cancel it!


Aren’t you fcking capable?! You can’t even handle a set of electronic equipment!

The commander of Rihe City’s air defense combat room was red-eyed with anxiety. He quickly picked up the phone to inform the ground crew of the surface-to-air missile system and shouted,
Hit it with an axe! Let’s see how it can launch itself!

However, it was already too late.
As soon as he finished speaking, they heard a whistling sound. They looked up and saw a fiery-red missile rising from their launch base and speeding towards the approaching aircraft in the clouds!
Boom!
A crisp and loud sound rang out. Plumes of smoke and flames shot in all directions. The portable surface-to-air missile had accurately hit Huo Shaoheng’s private plane!

Oh my God!
the regiment commander held his head and knelt on the ground, tears rolling down his face.
Chief — !

He covered his face, not daring to watch the air missile collide with the plane.
..
Huo Shaoheng noticed something strange the moment the missile locked onto the plane.
Even though the plane’s radar had failed, the engine had been completely emptied, and the engine had been shut down, it was still a military plane. When the plane was locked onto by the missile, the other emergency device on the plane was activated, an urgent alarm sounded again and again.
This emergency system had its own backup battery and was not affected by the aircraft’s engine oil.
Huo Shaoheng heard the emergency system alarm and immediately knew that something had happened.
He didn’t have time to think. He pulled the parachute off his head and placed it on his back. He pushed himself off the seat with one hand and jumped out of the seat. He rushed out of the cockpit and came to the open cabin door. He put his feet together and leapt with all his might and jumped into the river!
Before he opened his parachute, an earth-shattering explosion came from the top of his head!
The missile hit the private plane. With a whoosh, huge sparks flew in the air in the blink of an eye. The military private plane instantly burned into a huge fireball.
Shrapnel flew everywhere. The high-temperature flames were burning fiercely and attacked Huo Shaoheng’s back!
He didn’t open his parachute. Instead, he endured the pain and fell rapidly with his own weight.
This was because if he opened his parachute at this time, the high-temperature flames would definitely destroy his parachute immediately, and he would be waiting to fall to his death.
The plane above his head was almost blown to pieces by the missile. As it fell, it let out a whistling scream.
It was like a burning meteor shower that chased after Huo Shaoheng’s head and fell.
Huo Shaoheng realized that the surface of the water was getting closer and closer, and that the scorching temperature behind his back was getting further and further away. Only then did he open his parachute just as he was about to fall to the ground.
There was a soft hiss, and the dark blue parachute opened as if another blue flower had bloomed in mid-air.
However, the pieces of the plane above him fell like rain, and there were flames of all sizes. Very quickly, a few holes were smashed into his parachute.
The air passed through the holes, and the parachute was no longer able to support his weight.
Huo Shaoheng’s descent only slowed down for a moment before he realized that his parachute had broken. He had no way of controlling the speed of his descent.
Fortunately, there was a river below him. He had originally planned to make a forced landing on the river.
Huo Shaoheng tightened his grip on the parachute rope and calmly adjusted the direction and speed of his descent in the air.
Finally, at the last moment when a large piece of burning wing came crashing down on his head, he fell into the river with a plop.
The wreckage of the private jet also fell into the water.
The flames were drowned by the river. With a sizzling sound, they turned into thick black smoke that drifted over the river.
Not far away, countless cars were rushing over with headlights, which lit up the road beside the river in a long line.
