"Okay, please rest assured, sir, we will definitely strengthen training and make targeted tactical adjustments, and we will never let what happened today happen again!" Liu Qingshan nodded quickly and finally felt relieved, because he knew the external sea routes.
It has been cut off by the Japanese again, so we are extremely worried that we will not be able to import tanks from abroad.
As long as the tank energy is continuously replenished, this is better than anything else. Otherwise, the armored division will be reduced as the battle continues. Jiang Qiang then said: "The Japs suffered a big loss this time. According to the recent situation of the Japs,
As time goes by, the Japanese should not launch large-scale ground military operations in the short term. This is because the Japanese know very well that if they launch large-scale ground military operations, they will not only be threatened by our bombers, but also directly threatened by our tanks.
.
I judge that the Japanese will most likely strengthen the infiltration of agents, try their best to cause sabotage in our military defense zones and carry out special operations, or they will try their best to launch large-scale air raids to compete for air supremacy. Therefore, our focus at this stage is to guard against the Japanese special operations.
For large-scale air strikes, the Flying Tigers, special operations divisions, intelligence offices, and all defense areas must be prepared to prevent the little devils from taking advantage of the loopholes."
"Yes!" "Please rest assured, sir!" "As long as the Japanese plane dares to come, our Flying Tigers will make sure they never come back!" Shunzi, Li Jinglin, Huang Hong and others stood up one after another and solemnly accepted the order.
"Okay! Everyone sit down!"
Jiang Qiang pressed his hands and waited for everyone to take their seats before saying: "In the next time, I will leave it to everyone to discuss and summarize. The devils are constantly making progress, and we must also continue to improve ourselves, so that we can always be invincible."
!" Jiang Qiang was not interested in discussing the details. After all, these are all grassroots matters at the tactical level. Such a large group of capable people and generals under him are fully capable of making sure everything is done. After the meeting ended, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and the night fell.
has arrived.
Due to the recent light control implemented in the Shandong Military Defense Zone, municipal street lights, store sign lights, etc. are not lit. Residents who use electricity must close the curtains to prevent light leakage. So at night, the entire defense zone is plunged into darkness, completely without light.
The lights were bright in the past. "You stupid little devils, when you get the Americans involved in the war, I will fight with you for real!"
After walking out of the building and looking at the darkness in front of him, Jiang Qiang felt very unhappy. It stands to reason that the military power he now possesses can be used at a loss, and it is not impossible to even drive the Japs out of Shandong. But being impatient can ruin big plans, Jiang Qiang
Qiang still had a big game in mind. Exposing all his strength too early would most likely change the historical course of the Japs' sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.
This will not only add too many risks, but also increase unimaginable casualties. After all, where is the strength of the Japs? If the Japs gather all their strength to come to the Chinese battlefield, it will definitely be an unprecedented disaster! Therefore, it must be
By dragging the powerful US emperor into the water, we cannot let them enjoy the dividends of the war. They must make due contributions to world peace no matter what!
Jiang Qiang pursed his lips, not caring about this loss at all, just like a series of cold numbers. However, he couldn't bear to let the child trap the wolf. If it weren't for the expensive heavy equipment, if it wasn't for the firepower.
According to the rules of action, the casualty price paid today must be several times higher. It is normal for three to four thousand people to die.
In the early morning of July 31, at the Huangshan Villa in the outskirts of Chongqing, the Chairman got up early for a walk and did morning exercises as usual. When it was almost eight o'clock, he turned on the radio to listen to Shandong Radio. After listening to the Anti-Japanese War music for a while, the radio began to broadcast news: "
Good morning, dear listeners. This is Shandong Radio Station. I am the announcer Xia Yu. I am very happy to announce some exciting news:
Yesterday, our Shandong Group Army, together with the Third Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment, launched a fierce life-and-death battle with the invading Japanese troops in Yutai County..." "What? We annihilated more than 5,100 Japanese troops and destroyed 72 tanks.
12 bombers? Niang Xipi, I’m so relieved, I finally have good news again! This Jiang Qiang is really a tough nut to crack!”
Hearing the report on the battle situation, the Chairman was immediately overjoyed. Although it was not a great achievement created by his direct troops, he was still very happy to hear that the little devil was unlucky again! At this time, Lin Wei interrupted.
He said: "Jiang Qiang was able to find fighter planes and annihilate more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers at once while being heavily surrounded by Japanese soldiers. It is indeed very powerful. This news is also very exciting!"
However, it is not a good thing if the guerrillas of the Red Party get involved in this battle! In this case, the Red Party will definitely make a big fuss and use it to brag and win over people's hearts!" "Niang Xipi!" This sentence
When he came over, the Chairman's face suddenly turned green. He was not afraid of anything else, but he was worried that Jiang Qiang would become red and become a serious problem for him in the future.
As the Anti-Japanese War entered a stalemate stage, the pressure on the front of the National Government on the battlefield was much lessened. As Japan's strategy of invading China changed, the Chairman gradually shifted his focus to "dissolving and limiting communism" and excluding dissidents in the name of the Anti-Japanese War. At the same time,
, the enthusiasm of the national army generals for the War of Resistance, which was born out of the atonement mentality in the early days of the War of Resistance, also disappeared, and they once again embarked on the old path of preserving their strength and fearing war.
Lin Wei then added: "Committee, the Japs are now gathering heavy troops to encircle and suppress Jiang Qiang, but they are extremely afraid of the air force in Jiang Qiang's hands, so it has been delayed until now with heavy thunder and little rain. If the stalemate continues like this, there will be no way
Well, this time the devil has started but ended again!"
Lin Wei is a die-hard fan of the Chairman and a die-hard confidant. Naturally, he wholeheartedly advises the Chairman. In view of Jiang Qiang's various performances, although Lin Wei finds it difficult to admire Jiang Qiang's abilities and methods, he has long believed that Jiang Qiang will definitely be the best choice in the future.
We will not be in the same boat as the Nationalist Government.
Therefore, Lin Wei has been thinking about getting rid of this big threat in advance. This time the Japanese devils finally made up their minds to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. He did not want to miss this good opportunity. The chairman heard the implication and glared at Lin
Wei Dao: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Why do you have to deal with me?"
"The committee member really has a sharp eye!" Lin Wei complimented with a smile, and then added: "The little devil has long regarded Jiang Qiang as a thorn in his flesh, and has long wanted to get rid of him quickly. So I thought this was a good opportunity.
If the Japs and Jiang Qiang were to engage in a life-and-death battle, the Japs would surely suffer unprecedented heavy losses, and perhaps two to three hundred thousand elite troops would die.
In this way, the pressure on the National Government will definitely be greatly reduced, and the situation of the Anti-Japanese War is very likely to be reversed." The Chairman said with a sigh: "Isn't this nonsense? The key is how to implement it? The little devils are not fools, they are in the hands of Jiang Qiang.
After all the thanks, how could you not know that this is a tough bone?
And Jiang Qiang is not stupid. At this stage, he will never take the initiative to fight the Japanese. He will only rely on defenses to resist step by step. The battle of life and death is a matter of life and death. The Japanese cannot afford to lose, and Jiang Qiang cannot afford to lose. If there are not enough
Prerequisite, where can the decisive battle be easily fought?"
Lin Wei nodded and said with a smile: "What the committee member said is absolutely true. The Japs were indeed frightened by Jiang Qiang, otherwise they wouldn't be able to bear it till now. I analyzed the reason why the Japs are making louder thunders and less raining. In the end,
The main reason is the existence of the Flying Tigers. At the same time, Jiang Qiang's retreat to defense is also threatened by the Japanese Air Force.
Therefore, the biggest balance between the two lies in the air force. If this balance can be broken, the two sides who have long had a bloody feud will definitely fight and will never be afraid of each other like they are now." "That's right, the truth is indeed true.
That's it!" The chairman nodded slightly, and then said: "Then what good strategy do you have to break this deadlock?"
Lin Wei smiled and replied: "I can't say there is a good strategy, but I do have ideas! Whether it is the Japanese or Jiang Qiang, they are definitely planning to sneak attack and bomb the opponent's aircraft battlefield and oil depot. So, can we be a little help?
"This matter needs long-term consideration!"
The chairman raised his brows, and his heart was pounding. Although the pressure on the front of the national army was much reduced, the Japanese ambition to destroy China has not been extinguished, and the danger still exists. If we can add some fire to the Japanese and Jiang Qiang's fight,
The decisive battle, no matter what the outcome, would be a great thing for the Republic of China government.
There are currently two airports in Baoding. One is in Zhangzhuang, on the north side of Lashan Mountain, in the western suburbs of Baoding. The airport here was built in 1921, making Baoding the fourth city in Chinese history with air traffic. The other is in Pingtan.
The plain area of Baitawa Town and Dong'e Town was built in 1937 and occupied a large amount of fertile land. The airport area reached 1,500 acres. It was not put into use after its completion. It was not until last year that the Japanese spent a lot of manpower and material resources to deal with the Shandong Group Army.
Converted into a military airport.
Having tried the Shandong Army Flying Tigers many times, after the main force of the Japanese Third Aviation Group stationed in Baoding, northern Hebei Province, they did not put all their eggs in one basket. The Japanese not only opened Zhangzhuang Airport and Baitawa Airport at the same time, but also opened nearby airports.
The security was extremely tight. In addition to being heavily guarded, a ground radar station network was also built for monitoring and early warning. The Japanese tried every means to infiltrate the Shandong Military Defense Area, and Jiang Qiang also used various channels to secretly inform and spies in the Japanese-occupied areas.
The Japanese Third Flying Group exerted tremendous pressure and deterrence on the Shandong Army, and military targets such as Zhangzhuang Airport, Baitawa Airport, and the Japanese radar station where the Japanese aircraft were parked naturally became the focus of the Shandong Army's agents. Since the home field
With the advantages and the might of the Shandong Army Group, the infiltration efforts of the Shandong Army's agents were naturally perfect for the Japanese. In the surrounding Japanese-occupied areas, there were not only a large number of elite Tiger Army agents lurking, but also a large number of puppet troops and government officials who were instigated to rebel.
After Jiang Qiang launched the flying plan, in just three days, Shandong Army agents found out important information about the Japanese troops, military airports, oil depots, ground radar stations, etc. "It seems that the situation is much more serious than we expected!"
After receiving the intelligence summary, Jiang Qiang frowned. In the four counties and cities around Dezhou alone, the Japs had built 5 radar stations. Moreover, the radar stations were either in mountain fortresses that were easy to defend and difficult to attack, or in the hinterland where the Japs gathered heavily.
!
It is basically impossible to succeed in a direct sneak attack through agents. As for air raids and bombings, it is also very difficult, especially before gaining air supremacy. It is definitely high risk and low return. The Japanese airport is also heavily guarded. Although the target is large, there are only a few surrounding areas.
The entire kilometer range was classified as a military management zone. Let alone successfully sneaking into the airport and blowing up enemy planes, it was extremely difficult for a small group of special forces to even locate the parked Japanese fighter jets and mark them to guide the bombers for night bombing.
Chang Yuan frowned, and after a long while he sighed helplessly: "The Japs are really well-defended. Almost all possible means have been used. It is absolutely watertight. The tactical idea is to kill the Japs radar station and the airport by surprise at the minimum cost.
, it seems difficult to achieve.
Next, we have only two options, either to continue the stalemate to find the best fighter aircraft, or to start a decisive battle with the Japanese Air Force at all costs and completely cripple the Japanese Air Force!"
"General Officer, since we can't destroy the Japanese Air Force through special operations, let us have a decisive battle with the Japanese Air Force." Li Jinglin raised his eyebrows and said murderously: "Although the Japanese Air Force has more aircraft than us, our Flying Tigers
I have the confidence and ability to kill all the little Japanese air force." "Don't be anxious yet. At this time, you must stay calm and never be impulsive. Remember, we don't need to do business at a loss!"
Jiang Qiang was not panicked at all, because this information was originally expected. If the little Japanese had suffered so much, if there were loopholes in the basic defense measures, it would really be a drama of the Anti-Japanese War. After a pause, Jiang Qiang continued.
:
"Our intelligence department has intercepted a piece of top-secret intelligence about the Japanese. The Japanese are very likely to carry out large-scale air strikes and bombings on our defense area in the near future, with the intention of forcing our air force to fight with them. Therefore, we might as well wait and see what happens and take advantage of our home field.
Launch a decisive air battle with the Japanese and completely defeat the Japanese’s strategic intention to encircle and annihilate our army!” “Please rest assured, sir, if the Japanese air force really dares to invade in large numbers, our Flying Tigers will definitely defeat the Japanese aircraft even if we fight to the last soldier.”
There’s no coming back!”
Li Jinglin raised his head, raised his chest, stuck out his butt, and solemnly issued a military order. "Report to the chief, we have made a major discovery!" At this moment, Huang Hong walked into the combat hall with excitement on his face. Jiang Qiang raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
: "What makes you so happy? Tell me quickly so that everyone can be happy!" "Yes!"
Huang Hong responded happily, and then replied: "Report to the chief, these days we have discovered a large number of suspicious people around the air force base, oil refinery, and arsenal. Later we caught a few tongues and confirmed them through surprise interrogations.
They are the latent agents of the Japanese in our defense zone. This time they were ordered to come and destroy our airport, oil depot and other military facilities.
After in-depth investigation and retrieval of Skynet surveillance system videos, we have identified several contact points for the Japanese spies, as well as a foothold where the Japanese gather!" "Well done, there has been no movement from the Japanese troops for so many days, I'm afraid it's because of the
We are counting on this amazing force to work! Hehe, now let the Japanese know what it means to steal chicken but lose rice!"
After listening to Huang Hong's explanation, Jiang Qiang suddenly felt very good. Although according to his own protection measures, even if the Japs figured out the situation, they would not be able to easily succeed through sneak attacks and air strikes. But these Japs agents hiding in the dark could not be easily succeeded.
Killing a large number of people and eliminating a wave of potential threats is definitely a joyful event.
Jiang Qiang waved his hand and said: "Then what are you waiting for? Start the operation to close the net immediately. You can mobilize the gendarmerie and police forces to assist in the search according to the situation. You must catch all the lurking Japanese agents and spies!" "Please rest assured, chief executive, I promise.
Mission accomplished!" Huang Hong saluted Jiang Qiang very excitedly. If this thing is done well, it will be a great achievement, enough to add a big mark to his resume.
On the morning of August 6, Rikuto Nojima came to Tada Shun with a dejected face, lowered his head and said in a sad tone: "I am reporting to you, Commander, that all the agents in the action team are shattered. Our operation has completely failed. Please Commander."
Your Excellency will punish you!" "Nani? The operation failed completely before it was fully launched? What on earth is going on? Tell me!" Shun Tada looked confused. After waiting for several days, he originally thought that there would be an unexpected surprise.
, and ended up failing without even farting? "Hai!"
Nojima Rikuto explained with a face full of shame: "Report to your Excellency, Commander, after we launched the plan, we awakened a large number of latent agents and special forces to form a powerful special operations team. Just as we made progress, we detected several secret bases
When we were preparing to carry out further sabotage operations, the enemy suddenly dispatched a large number of troops and military police to conduct a large-scale manhunt, and very accurately destroyed several of our communication stations.
Then things got even worse. I don’t know what methods the enemy used to uproot the entire action team overnight. All our action personnel were either arrested or shot dead on the spot..." Nojima Riku
The more people talk about it, the sadder they become, and eventually they even want to die.
After finally getting such a good opportunity to show his face, Nojima Rikuto was very eager to use this to prove his existence value and make contributions to solve big troubles for the Japanese Army. However, God failed to fulfill his wish, and after working hard for a long time, he not only failed
If he was released, even the secret agent network he had worked so hard to build would be destroyed in one fell swoop. Rikuto Nojima really wanted to kill him with a piece of tofu.
"Baga! How could this happen?" Shun Tada was trembling with anger, staring at Rikuto Nojima with an angry look. He really wanted to pull out his command knife and stab him to death. This top student from the Berlin Military Academy in Germany is a complete idiot who cannot be reused.
But looking back, I can't blame the incompetence of Nojima Riku for this matter, because even the all-pervasive Ministry of Internal Affairs' special high-level courses have tried their best and lost countless ace agents, but they still can't gain a foothold in the Shandong Army Defense Zone.
After enduring it for a while, Tada Shun waved his hand and said: "Go down, I can't blame you for this matter. There is not much success in the first place, and failure is natural! After you go down, you will train the special forces well, and you will definitely send them in the future.
It will be of great use!" "Thank you for your understanding, Commander. I am ashamed of my humble position!" Nojima Rikuto blushed like a monkey's butt. He knew that Tada Shun was showing mercy outside the law, and his words were full of disappointment, and he did not intend to do it again.
He had a chance to show off. After Nojima Rikuto walked away, Tada Shun immediately summoned Naosaburo Okabe and Shozo Kawabe to discuss countermeasures.
Naosaburo Okabe took a long breath and said: "Tada-kun, it seems that we can only adopt the final plan! This is the only way out. If we cannot completely obtain air superiority, we can't even think of paying 10 divisions.
Break this hard nut." Hebian Zhengsan nodded and agreed: "That's right! If we can control the air, with our current strength, we can concentrate our superior forces to open the gap and gradually reduce the Shandong Army's living space."
"Hey! Let's do it like this!" Jun Tada sighed in dismay, because once he proposed this combat plan, it would prove his incompetence, and the next situation would be no longer within his control.
But even so, Tada Shun has no better choice, unless he is crazy and wants to hit an egg against a stone, regardless of the cost of casualties!
Obviously, such a choice will not only ruin the lives of countless Japanese soldiers, but also ruin Tada Jun's future, and even make him a historical sinner of Japan. Tada Jun's head has not been burned out, and he will definitely not act out of emotion.
Before gaining air superiority, large-scale ground military operations were launched.
Soon, both the Japanese base camp and Hirohito received telegrams from the North China Front. "Nani? Follow the Sea Lion Plan and launch the largest air raid on the Shandong Peninsula?" After reading the telegram, Hirohito's expression was extremely exciting, and he finally made up his mind.
More than 300,000 troops were gathered to encircle and annihilate Jiang Qiang.
Hirohito had been counting on the greatly strengthened Japanese Army to be able, under the leadership of the resourceful Shun Tada, to eliminate the serious troubles in his heart and wash away the humiliation of many years. However, apart from a few painless battles at the beginning, Hirohito had been counting on it.
The battle was defeated, and the result turned into a dull stalemate. After a few days of silence, the ball was kicked back again.
Hirohito felt really funny and angry at the moment. The mighty Japanese Empire could not do anything to defeat a local warlord. This was simply a big joke! Hirohito lowered his head in silence and looked deep in thought. After waiting for a long time, Kanin Gong Zaijin said this
He couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Tada Shun really has no choice. The Shandong Group Army is already good at defense, and its army is not weaker than the Imperial Army. This alone is already difficult to defeat.
If coupled with the huge threat of the Air Force, there is really no way to fight this war! Therefore, the problem that needs to be solved now is air supremacy!" "Uncle Emperor, I naturally know this, otherwise I would not have assigned the Third Aircraft Group to North China.
The front army also asked the naval fleet to be anchored in the Bohai Bay and standby for containment." Hirohito nodded, and then said: "The key question now is that what the navy wants to do most is to go south. Will they be willing to fully participate in the war and cooperate with them?
The Army’s devastating long-term bombing campaign on the Shandong Peninsula?”
