China's first airport. It seems to have been built in 1904?
That's right. At that time, the Qing Dynasty had not yet perished. At that time, Peiping was still called the capital. At that time, the Empress Dowager Cixi had not yet died...
China's first plane landed at Nanyuan Airport.
Its history is too long.
After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the Japanese invaders stormed Nanyuan Airport.
The most intense anti-Japanese battle in the Pingjin area broke out at Nanyuan Airport. Senior generals such as Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu died unfortunately.
Most of the thousands of student soldiers stationed at Nanyuan Airport suffered casualties.
After Nanyuan Airport, there was no more fierce fighting. The Pingjin area fell like this.
Unexpectedly, there are pilots at Nanyuan Airport.
"Is there a plane?"
"It seems not. I don't know the details."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong nodded thoughtfully.
The airplane is not important. Really. Because even if there is one, it is a very backward model.
The aircraft currently stationed at Jinling University Airport are also very backward Hawk 2 types. Even the Hawk 3 type is not available yet.
The Hawker Type 3 itself is relatively backward.
As a manufacturer, Curtiss has fallen behind the times.
Before seeing the real thing, Zhang Yong could not imagine the backwardness of the Hawker 2. It was a biplane with two layers of wings. The same was true for the Hawker 3. It was very backward.
It is completely incomparable to the famous P-38 Lightning, P-40 Tomahawk and other fighters of later generations.
It is even more different from the proud ones like P-47 Thunderbolt and P-51 Mustang. It doesn’t feel like something from the same world at all.
It is completely incomparable to the German bf109.
Even the National Air Force is like this, so what kind of aircraft can there be in North China?
No wonder the empty funding department only needs people.
They all looked down upon such an outdated aircraft.
After breakfast, I called Commander Zhang but was rejected. Only the Deputy Chief of Staff answered the phone.
Zhang Yong:……
Finished.
What's going on? You didn't answer on purpose?
"Mr. Zhang is in a very difficult situation right now." Mei Lu expressed her understanding, "He is hampered everywhere."
"Alas..." Zhang Yong could only sigh.
The situation is too complicated.
He couldn't handle it.
real.
Originally I just wanted to take care of my own one-third of an acre of land, but I didn't expect that so many things would happen later.
The previous plan was to go back after catching Yang Junjian. Virgo only gave him ten days. How many ten days have passed now? It has been more than a month. If it continues, it will be two months.
Now that two months have come, can three months be far away? Maybe, we will have to celebrate the New Year in Tianjin Wei.
It doesn't matter. They are all alone anyway.
Put down the phone and prepare to go back to the room.
Mei Lu blushed and pinched his waist, "Not today..."
"Why?"
"You can't ruin yourself like this..."
"I……"
"At least two days of rest..."
"no……"
Suddenly I saw someone coming.
It was the waiter at the hotel. He said he had Zhang Yong’s phone number.
"mine?"
"Yes. He said his surname is also Zhang. He is looking for you."
"Thanks!"
Zhang Yong handed the other party a big ocean.
The surname is Zhang?
Who?
I am in Tianjin Wei, and I don’t seem to know a friend named Zhang.
Confused, he answered the phone.
I picked up the phone and found that it was Teacher Zhang's voice.
"Shaolong, it's me."
"Ah, hello, hello, Mr. Zhang..."
"It's not convenient for me to answer the phone at the division headquarters. I'm outside now. If you have anything to do, please tell me."
"Mr. Zhang, I'd like to excuse you, but I want to ask you something..."
"You ask. I will tell you everything I know, and I will tell you everything I know."
"Are there any pilots at Beiping Nanyuan Airport?"
"Why are you asking this?"
"I want to know about the relevant situation."
"There are more than a hundred people."
"More than a hundred? That much?"
Zhang Yong was surprised.
I thought it was just a few here and there. Unexpectedly, there were hundreds of them.
It’s amazing. There are hundreds of pilots at Nanyuan Airport? Where do they come from? Are they trained? What are their levels?
Incredible.
Those are all treasures!
You must know that pilots are very rare these days.
Especially in China. Not to mention those who know how to fly a plane, there are very few people who have even seen one.
"There are a lot of people. But the composition is quite complicated."
"How to say?"
"Some of them were exiled from the Northeastern Army. Some of them were prepared by us before to do it ourselves. And some of them were aviation school students recruited by Jinling in Peiping."
"Are there any planes at Nanyuan Airport?"
"They're all broken. They can't fly. They can only be placed on the ground to make a show."
"What were those pilots doing there?"
"Where else would we go?"
"go……"
Zhang Yong almost blurted out, "Go to Jinling!"
Both Jinling and Hangcheng have aviation schools and air force bases. They will also continue to add aircraft there.
As long as there are pilots, there will be more planes.
It seems like this...
"You don't try to take them south."
"Why?"
"They are not allowed to go south."
"Why?"
"No explanation. Just refused to leave. There is a group stationed at Nanyuan Airport, which is responsible for guarding the airport. In the past, Japanese people kept coming to spy, but now Nanyuan Airport is under martial law. No one is allowed to approach, and no one inside is allowed.
leave."
"so serious?"
Zhang Yong frowned and vaguely understood the meaning of the telegram.
The truth is, it is impossible to take those pilots away through regular channels. Commander Song will not agree.
The so-called high-level officials are mainly Song Zheyuan, commander of the 29th Army.
He was once the anti-Japanese hero of Xifengkou. But later he became a bit hard to describe. At this moment, he was also indecisive and hesitant.
Because I was cheated by Lao Jiang, I don’t trust Lao Jiang.
Until the Marco Polo Bridge Incident broke out, he still fantasized about making peace with the Japanese invaders but failed to prepare for war. History books conclude that he bore an important responsibility for the fall of the Pingjin area.
Without Commander Song's permission, it was impossible to take those pilots away.
Unless there is some way...
"Mr. Zhang, are you interested in British equipment?"
"What equipment?"
"Mainly British 77 rifles and Bren light machine guns."
"How many?"
"One camp!"
"Where? Under what conditions?"
"Dagukou, Yinglun Pier, Warehouse No. 17."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"The British want to lend me my hand and give it to you."
"Why?"
"Because the British and Japanese also have conflicts. They want to use us to put pressure on Japan."
"When are you going to get it?"
"Now."
"Okay. I'll arrange someone."
Commander Zhang was not polite either. Who would refuse weapons and ammunition?
His troops were poorly equipped and severely lacking ammunition. Facing so many Japanese invaders was actually very stressful.
It should be noted that one of his divisions actually only has about 7,000 men. The Japanese regular troops that need to be faced include two regiments of 7,000 men. In addition, the Japanese invaders also have military police and a large number of armed foreigners.
There are also Japanese naval warships cruising in the Bohai Bay outside Dagukou. Reinforcements can be brought up at any time.
The most important thing is that the two infantry regiments of the Japanese invaders both have a large number of artillery. There are 75mm mountain cannons, 90mm mortars, and 105mm heavy cannons.
However, the Thirty-fourth Division under his command did not even have a mountain cannon. There were only a dozen 60mm mortars.
If the two sides really fought, how could they withstand the Japanese invasion?
"I'll wait for you on the roadside!"
"good!"
The two took action immediately.
Soon, we arrived at Dagukou Pier and opened the warehouse.
Sure enough, there were 500 British rifles, 500,000 rounds of ammunition, and about 30 Bren light machine guns inside.
There are not many weapons. But half a million rounds of ammunition is very satisfying.
In particular, half of the 500,000 rounds of ammunition were 7.92mm Mauser rifle rounds, which exactly met the needs of the 34th Division.
"Captain Zhang, tell me what conditions you have!"
"My conditions are very harsh. I'm afraid Mr. Zhang won't be able to do it."
"you say."
"I hope that in two years, Commander Zhang will be stationed at Nanyuan Airport."
"What?"
Obviously stunned.
Stationed at Nanyuan Airport?
What is this condition?
"Commander Zhang, according to the deductions of the Jinling Military Senate, in two years at most, the Japanese invaders will fully invade China. At that time, the Japanese invaders will increase their troops to Beijing and Tianjin in large numbers. They will find excuses to launch a full-scale war. Nanyuan Airport is the
This is a battleground for the Japanese invaders. The Japanese invaders need to occupy this airport and station aircraft."
"Then what?"
"Nothing will happen. The Japanese invaders will attack madly and must capture Nanyuan Airport."
"That's all you tell me?"
"Yes. My condition is that Mr. Zhang will be stationed at Nanyuan Airport as much as possible."
"I can't make the decision on military deployment."
"Then whoever is stationed at Nanyuan Airport hopes that Commander Zhang will remind him that there will be a fierce battle at Nanyuan Airport. The Japanese invaders are determined to win."
"Okay. I understand."
"I will continue to cooperate with the British to try to get more weapons and ammunition for Commander Zhang."
"Frankly, I'm curious, why would you do this?"
"Mr. Zhang, why do you ask that?"
"I'm just curious."
"Does Mr. Zhang need a reason to kill the Japanese invaders? Does he need a reason to defend his country and resist foreign humiliation?"
"You... I was wrong! I'm sorry."
Zhang Kexia looked solemn.
I didn't expect Zhang Yong to say that. I thought this guy was just fooling around!
According to his investigation results, Zhang Yong's reputation seems not to be very good...
However……
Do we need a reason to defend our country and resist foreign humiliation?
"well……"
He sighed silently.
He was actually very worried about the current situation.
Whether it is the external environment or the internal situation of the 29th Army, the situation is very complicated.
The enemy is watching eagerly, but inside...
"Mr. Zhang, do you know Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu?"
"We know each other!"
"They should be very determined in their anti-Japanese attitude, right?"
"Yes. Zhao Dengyu was demoted before because of a conflict with the Japanese invaders. What do you mean by this?"
"In future wars, the two of them should be on the front line. There may be a possibility of sacrifice."
"What's so strange about this? Who doesn't have the possibility of sacrifice?"
"Well……"
Zhang Yong was speechless.
Yes. When the war of resistance breaks out in full force, who has no possibility of sacrifice?
Even if it was a commission, in the mountain city, it would still be almost bombed.
Who is not at risk?
So the topic ended and everyone went home.
Zhang Yong returned to Junsheng Coal Trading Company. After taking a rest, he remembered something.
The woman I saw in Xia Chong Yubing before, whose pseudonym is Wang Manyuan, is she still there? She seems to have a close relationship with Wang Zhulin.
Did the girl in the underground cell of Baolin Temple finally fall into her hands? Is she an accomplice of Wang Zhulin?
Okay, if you can’t catch Wang Zhulin, catch this woman first!
At that time, I felt that this woman was not simple. If I caught her, I might be able to interrogate a lot of information.
Act now.
Suddenly, the map prompts that a red dot enters the edge.
Almost without thinking, Zhang Yong immediately felt that the person coming was evil. At the same time, he realized the danger.
The map shows that this red dot did not take the main road.
To be precise, he didn't take the road at all. Instead, he sneaked in quietly from a place with no road.
This is awesome.
It must be for yourself.
Could it be the killer of the Miyamoto family?
Okay, be ready.
Waved outside. Chen Wen came in immediately.
Chen Wen is a Northeastern Army veteran who looks very honest and honest, but likes to shoot his head with a gun.
"team leader……"
"There is a Japanese invader who is infiltrating us."
"Where is it?"
"Northwest. Ten o'clock position. Call five people. I will take you to deal with him."
"yes!"
Chen Wen immediately went out to call for help.
Soon, five other veterans of the Northeast Army gathered together.
