"Search for the target each, remember what the commander told everyone before going to war! Release!" Following Luo Chunfu's order, the bombardier of his overhead fortress immediately pressed the bomb release button, and almost at the same time as the magazine opened, Luo Chunfu turned the accelerator
Slowly retract it, and at the same time slowly push the lever forward and then slowly pull it up, keeping the fighter speed at an extremely low state——
The sound of "hoo" sounded, and one after another aerial bombs coated with anti-rust paint roared towards Luo Chunfu's target. In less than ten seconds, the first bomb touched the water, and then a violent explosion occurred.
. The target that Fei Luo Chunfu aimed at was a cruiser. The first bomb exploded almost close to the hull of the ship. The air waves generated by the explosion immediately shook the warship violently. Only a cry of surprise was heard, and dozens of
Several Japanese fell down on the deck or in the cabin, but before they could get up, another bomb hit the outer deck of the battleship with huge waves caused by the previous bomb. A "rumbling" explosion sounded, and several
The Japanese were thrown up by the air waves, and their screams and explosions immediately became the main theme in the Sasebo Military Port.
Luo Chunfu took the lead, and the other eleven airborne fortresses each found their targets and started dropping bombs. Among them, the one at the back spotted the six submarines. The student was overjoyed and immediately turned around to aim and drop bombs. Immediately, the six submarines
The water surface of the naval port where the Japanese submarines were located was immediately filled with huge waves caused by the explosion. The six submarines were unable to escape. Four of them were directly torn apart and sank. Although the other two were not affected,
It was a fatal blow, but all the Japanese inside were shocked to death, and their deaths were miserable.
When the empty fortress piloted by Luo Chunfu completed bombing, Liu Xuefeng discovered a valuable target and finally waited for the enemy plane to intercept.
Three Type 97 warships roared and rose one after another from the military airport east of Sasebo. When Liu Xuefeng saw it, he first reported the location of an oil tank area discovered to Wang Hai, and then shouted to his brothers: "Two
Form a warning, one group, just ahead, follow me and kill them!"
"good!"
"yes!"
Sasebo Military Port has a small land airport, which was originally used as a training base for Hainan Airlines aviation. Therefore, although it has more than 20 fighter aircraft, only three are combat capable, and the others are training aircraft. However,
, because the combined fleet's remaining aviation force has instructor-level aviation, so Nishimura Hara, commander of the Sasebo naval port garrison, received the order and still had high hopes for them, hoping that they could "give full play to the bravery of the Imperial Japanese Air Force and defeat the incoming enemy."
Enemy planes!" It was hoped that they could hit more with less to help offset part of their neglect of defense.
Nishimura's wish is undoubtedly good, but judging from the current situation, the explosion of these three Type 97 warships taking off at this time is really like sending someone to death.
The Whitefins had already earned a reputation in their battles with Japanese aircraft. Nishimura, who had been staying in Sasebo and didn't care about the aviation force, didn't know this, but those Japanese aviation instructors knew this from their interactions with their comrades.
So, when six Baijis, led by Liu Xuefeng, formed a two-plane formation and divided into three groups to approach them, the three senior Japanese airmen made the same choice at the same time - they turned around and ran away while discarding the auxiliary fuel tanks.
Nishimurahara stood in front of his office window, holding a microphone and accepting the scolding of Mitsumasa Yoneuchi. Seeing this scene, the little devil was so angry that he blurted out the sentence "eight lines".
Opposite the microphone, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, who was scolding Nishimura for the consequences of his negligence in the Prime Minister's Residence. After scolding for a while, his mood and thoughts were already much smoother. When he heard the "eight grid" sound, he immediately became furious. The old man immediately threw the phone down.
Then he slapped the table and shouted to the Navy Vice-Admiral Narumi Inoue next to him: "Nishimura, this bastard, I just reprimanded him a few words, but he actually dared to speak harshly to me. He is really lawless! Inoue, you go and do it immediately, let the military police
Catch him! Ba Ge, it seems that we need to rectify military discipline!"
Because the Combined Fleet returned victoriously and would arrive in Sasebo soon, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi was in a bright mood. Two hours ago, he had just received a secret message from Yamamoto and learned that Yamamoto intended to absorb the Army Standing Division to strengthen the Marine Corps.
He himself also felt that this was a good way to weaken the influence of the army and strengthen the strength of the navy, so he summoned Inoue to discuss the matter. Before Nishimura called, he was discussing key points with Inoue, and he was already in a bad mood when he was interrupted.
One can imagine the difference in his mood when he heard such bad news. However, what the old Japanese man never expected was that Nishimura actually dared to call him a bastard on the phone. No wonder he was furious!
Inoue had already withdrawn from the circle of naval forces due to political disagreements with Yamamoto. He was able to return because of Yonei's help. Witnessing the United Fleet becoming increasingly powerful under Yamamoto's changes, he also intended to show his iron fist to maintain the
The "Navy Iron Triangle" unanimously felt that this was an opportunity, so they said in a deep voice: "Sir, please calm down, I will call Konishi Taro right now!"
But as for Nishimura, he immediately woke up after scolding the "eight grids". While breaking out in a cold sweat, he explained repeatedly: "Your Excellency, I, I am not scolding you, I - Dududu..."
There was only a blind tone on the phone. He held it stupidly for a while, then realized something and couldn't help but slumped to the ground.
Mitsumasa Yoneuchi experienced both joy and anger within a few seconds, causing him to lose his calm for a time. Then by the time he reacted and realized Nishimura's importance to Sasebo at this time, it was already too late.
The commander of the Sasebo Military Police Force, Taro Konishi, resolutely and timely carried out Inoue's order. Just when Wang Hai's Zhejiang Southern Air Force launched a bombing on key military and industrial targets in Sasebo, he ignored the raging artillery fire and led a team of
The military police went straight to the garrison headquarters to arrest Nishimura Hara, but Wang Hai saw it. He passed the order, and an empty fortress visited the building he entered, and directly used dozens of aerial bombs to kill him and Nishimura Hara.
The more than four hundred Japanese inside were all turned into cannon fodder.
The premature deaths of Nishimura and Konishi directly led to the Japanese army in Sasebo being leaderless and fighting on their own. Therefore, although Sasebo had a total of nearly a regiment-sized air defense force, it could not pose any threat to the Zhejiang Southern Aviation Force. Continuous explosions
The city of Sasebo was in chaos. Two years after Nagoya was bombed, the Japanese civilians in Sasebo finally tasted the consequences of the war, and this was just the beginning.
