Chapter 529: What I let fly was not a bird, but a cannonball
Qingdao Airport is located in the Dabaotou Village area of Cangkou, covering an area of more than 3,230 acres. The meteorological and communication equipment mainly includes 1 weather vane, 1 heat and cold gauge, 1 barometer, 1 500-watt shortwave radio station, etc. This is Shenyang Airport When Hong Lie was serving as the mayor of Qingdao, he signed an agreement with China Airlines to build a major station on the Shanghai to Peiping route. Construction started in June 1932 and was put into use in January 1933. The route is Shanghai-Nanjing-Haizhou-Qingdao- Tianjin—Beiping.
When Shen Honglie retreated from Qingdao, even his ships sank in the port channel, he also set fire to several major Japanese companies in Qingdao, and the airport was naturally destroyed. Therefore, when the Eighth Route Army first attacked Qingdao, they seized After buying so much supplies, I found nothing at Qingdao Airport.
After the Japanese army occupied Qingdao for the second time, in order to open air traffic with Japan and to facilitate the support of the Eighth Route Army in the battle against Jiaodong, Shandong, and the southern mountainous area of Zhongshan Shandong, they seized the time to expand the Cangkou Airport and drove them away with bayonets. There are 280 villagers in Daweng Village, and even the Mingzhen Temple located on the west side of the airport was forcibly moved away, more than doubling the area of Cangkou Airport, and building a dual-use airport for both military and civilian use.
In terms of civilian use, the Japanese Army established the "Qingdao Branch Office of Dainippon Airlines Co., Ltd." in Qingdao, and opened regular routes from Peking to Qingdao to the Japanese capital, Fukuoka, and Tokyo. In terms of military use, the Japanese Army's North China Front Army Aviation Group stationed itself at Qingdao Cangkou Airport. An independent flying team, under the jurisdiction of a light bomber squadron, a fighter squadron, and a reconnaissance aircraft squadron. Of course, the Japanese army learned the lessons of the Eighth Route Army Air Force's sneak attacks on airports. Like permanent airports such as Jinan, Peiping, Tianjin, and Shijiazhuang, in addition to strengthening anti-aircraft firepower In addition to the ground guard troops, hangars, hangars, aircraft shelters, underground ammunition depots, and fuel depots were also built. Not to mention that the Eighth Route Army Air Force did not conduct sneak attacks. Even if they did sneak attacks, they would not be able to achieve the same results as the previous sneak attacks on the North China Airport of the Japanese Army. .
Not to mention Jinan Airport, which was attacked by the Eighth Route Army Air Force. When the Japanese army resumed use, they naturally used all the methods they could think of.
Since the Eighth Route Army's Shaanxi Airport and Mian County Air Force Base were attacked by the Japanese army, the Japanese airmen at the North China Aviation Group's airports finally breathed a sigh of relief. They no longer have to be wary of ghosts from the sky. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Some time ago, the Eighth Route Army Air Force again Appearing suddenly, they not only attacked several advance airports of the Japanese army in Shanxi and Anyang, Kaifeng, and Shangqiu airports, but also blew up the Longxiang aircraft carrier formation. The North China Front Army Aviation Group became nervous again and sent a large number of reconnaissance aircraft to Shaanxi. Search and reconnaissance was carried out to find the Eighth Route Army's new airport; on the other hand, the early warning level of each permanent airport was improved, and fighter planes were on duty over the airport every day. At the same time, the airport hardware construction was strengthened, and hangars, aircraft bunkers, and aircraft shelters were built. Improve the safety factor of aircraft and always be prepared to prevent sudden sneak attacks by the Eighth Route Army.
Despite all calculations, there were still loopholes, and the Eighth Route Army special operations team still successfully attacked Xuzhou Ma Toushan Airport and Luotuoshan Airport.
At dawn, the Japanese flying squadrons in Qingdao and Jinan were busy. They had received orders last night that the Eighth Route Army had captured Jiaoxian, Gaomi, Anqiu, Linqu, and Boshan, and they were asked to set out to bomb the Eighth Route Army. It's a pity that they flew a long circle from Jinan to Anqiu, from Qingdao to Gaomi, and found no trace of the Eighth Route Army except for the quiet county towns, market towns, and villages on the ground. They were thrown into several county towns, blowing up the quiet county towns into flames, thick smoke billowing, and cries.
As soon as the Little Japanese plane returned to the airport, it was ordered to take off again. This time the mission was to find out the situation at Xuzhou Ma Toushan Airport and Luotuoshan Airport and to bomb the possible Eighth Route Army sneak attack troops. As a result, the plane had not yet taken off, but it was again
After receiving an order, it was said that Commander Ogao Kamezo, the commander of the Twelfth Army, was attacked at Fangzi Ershilipu Airport, and they were asked to go immediately for reconnaissance and rescue, and they must not accidentally blow up Commander Ogao Kamezo.
The bombers and fighters had to be reloaded, and the reconnaissance planes took off first. This time, they were unlucky. In addition to finding no signs of large-scale activities of the Eighth Route Army, the reconnaissance planes encountered ground fire attacks at Ershilipu Airport and two of them were shot down.
Now, we finally had a target. Without waiting for further orders from the Chief of Staff of the Twelfth Army, Major General Kobayashi Asaburo, the formation of bombers and fighter jets that had already taken off from the airport headed towards the Ershilipu Airport with murderous intent.
After Zhou Yi led the guard battalion to capture Wei Gaogui Zang, he followed Liu Yimin's order and sent soldiers to send Wei Gao Guizang to Weicheng and handed him over to Wang Laohu for interrogation. Then he began to dig fortifications at the airport, disguised himself, and prepared to fight against the Japs.
aircraft.
Before the deployment was complete, the Little Japanese reconnaissance plane flew in from the east and west directions. Seeing several Japanese corpses on the airport, the Little Japanese reconnaissance plane actually landed at the airport. It turned out that it was a captured enemy plane.
It was a good opportunity, but Zhou Yi had to give up because the Japanese only had two planes landing and other reconnaissance planes were still circling in the sky.
In desperation, Zhou Yi had no choice but to order all the machine guns in the guard camp to fire. Not bad, he not only drove away the Japanese reconnaissance planes in the sky, but also destroyed the two Japanese planes trying to land.
In fact, this is also a fluke, mainly because the pilots of the North China Front Army Aviation Group were afraid of the ground firepower of the Eighth Route Army instructors in the past. When they heard that they were fighting the main force of the Eighth Route Army instructors, these guys often chose to drop bombs at high altitudes and did not dare to
What kind of swooping and strafing will happen again?
I was afraid that if I made a mistake, I would crash into the Eighth Route Army's ground fire network and destroy the aircraft. So when I encountered ground fire, I would rush to escape and report to the aircraft. Otherwise, the firepower of a guard battalion in the teaching brigade would not be enough.
It is really no match for the Little Japanese plane, and it will definitely suffer heavy casualties.
As soon as the Japanese reconnaissance plane left, Zhou Yi commanded the troops to deploy quickly and deploy fake air defense positions inside the airport. He also made many bundles of grain and straw, tied them into straw men, put on military uniforms, and pretended that the Eighth Route Army troops were evacuating the airport. Then
, dug a dozen large irregular pits around the airport, covered with sorghum straw, and allowed soldiers from the guard battalion to carry large birdcages, hold balloons and kites, hide in the large pits, and prepare to launch the special air defense team
The virgin battle.
Guard battalion commander Liu Jinping was from Ruijin, Jiangxi Province. He joined the Red Army in 1932 and joined the party the following year. When Liu Yimin led the guard division to cross the Wujiang River, Lin Biao, commander of the First Red Army Corps, went to greet him and took away a large number of weapons and prisoners, leaving behind
A battalion strengthens the Central Guard Division. Liu Jinping is a company instructor of this battalion.
Seeing Zhou Yi crawling in the bunker with his head outside the bunker and holding a telescope to the sky to observe carefully, Liu Jinping couldn't help but remind him: "Chief of Staff, is this method feasible? There are more than 500 soldiers in my guard battalion.
, if this trick of yours doesn’t work, we will become the targets of the little devils, and we won’t even know how to die by then!”
Zhou Yi didn't even look back and said stiffly: "Are you scared?"
When Liu Jinping heard this, he opened his mouth and said: "Fuck! I am an old Red Army soldier who has been in the army since 1932. I have been through so many deaths. Are you afraid of death? I don't want my comrades to die in an unknown way."
Zhou Yi put down the telescope, retracted his head, looked at Liu Jinping, reached out and took off a sorghum leaf hanging on his face, and said confidently: "Don't worry, this plan was carefully thought out by the commander and I, and it is foolproof. Commander
As I said, fighting is an art, fight to the death
Fighting hard is something that only the national army can do. When have our instructors ever done that? Do you know that this is a huge effort, using worthless balloons, kites and flocks of birds to deal with Japanese planes? The little Japanese can't even think of it.
, do you think it can be successful? Besides, we
The whole brigade is around here, and I don’t know how many machine guns are waiting for the Japanese planes. As long as they fly here, haha, they are dancing on the fire net. To say the least, even the small Japanese planes can escape us.
Firepower network, it cannot escape the Eighth Route Army Aviation
A large group of fighter jets were strangled. Let me tell you, Li Lingfeng, Wang Tongsheng and others attacked Xuzhou Airport early this morning and seized sixty Japanese aircraft, including twenty fighter jets alone. If my judgment is correct, the division commander has already ordered
They're heading here."
When Liu Jinping heard this, wasn't this the serial killing that the division commander was used to? First, they used balloons, kites, and flocks of birds to harass the Japanese planes, then the firepower network of the 1st Teaching Brigade, and then the fighter jets of the aviation brigade. Oh dear, what is the division commander going to do?
Leave all the little devil’s planes behind!
With a chuckle, Liu Jinping said, "As long as the teacher says it will work, then it will work." He raised his telescope and began to observe.
In fact, Zhou Yi himself had no idea. Using balloons, kites and birds to deal with Japanese planes was theoretically feasible, but after all, it had not been tested in actual combat. This airport is not as good as a mountainous area. It is open and hidden. If this method fails,
Then you and the brigade guard battalion will be really in danger.
At this time, what Zhou Yi looked forward to most was that Feng Dafei could lead the aviation brigade's fighters to the battlefield quickly.
The straight-line distance from Jinan to Weicheng and from Qingdao to Weicheng is only 70 kilometers. In a short time, the Japanese bombers and fighter formations taking off from Qingdao Airport and the formation taking off from Jinan Airport arrived at Ershilipu Airport one after another.
For fear of killing Lieutenant General Oga Kamezo, the Japanese aircraft formation that arrived in Qingdao did not dare to drop bombs and first lowered their altitude to conduct circling reconnaissance.
During this investigation, the little devil discovered that there was an Eighth Route Army air defense position at the airport, and Tubal Road seemed to be organizing an emergency retreat. There were Tubal Road troops fleeing in all directions around the airport.
The Japanese captain who led the team knew in his heart that no matter whether he could rescue Otaka Kamezo or not, he had to deal with the Eighth Route Army's air defense positions first. Otherwise, if they opened fire, they would cause losses to his formation. Therefore, he did not think much about it and directly
Ordered an attack on the anti-aircraft positions.
The Japanese planes began to drop bombs at high altitudes, and the bombs landed one after another on the camouflaged air defense positions around the airport. Of course, the accuracy of high-altitude bomb drops was not high, and many bombs landed next to the camouflaged air defense positions, blowing up dust all over the sky. Some bombs
The landing point was accurate, and the fake anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft cannons made of wooden frames were blown to pieces.
At this time, the Japanese fighter formation taking off from Jinan Airport also arrived. Seeing that the Qingdao Airport fighter formation completed the first round of bomb drops, they immediately joined the bombing ranks and started the second round of bomb drops. Until the fake air defense heavy equipment Zhou Yi had worked so hard to bring from Fangzi was
All the firepower was so intense that no shadow could be seen. The little Japanese stopped dropping bombs and took pictures with a camera, preparing to evaluate the bombing effect after returning.
After taking photos and confirming that there was no anti-aircraft firepower on the ground, forty aircraft from two Japanese fighter formations swooped down towards the airport in accordance with the order of battle formations and began to shoot at the scarecrows disguised as the fleeing Eighth Route Army.
Just now, Zhou Yi almost ordered the guard camp to open fire to attract the Japanese with firepower. Because he saw that the Japanese fighter planes only dropped bombs at high altitudes and did not swoop down to straf, for fear that they would flap their wings and fly away after the bombing. The result was not bad, and the Japanese fighter planes have not forgotten it.
After catching those Gucao men disguised as fleeing Eighth Route Army troops, the plane's nose sprayed flames and rushed down.
Zhou Yi pushed away the sorghum stalks above his head, raised his pistol and made a "bang" sound.
All of a sudden, all the sorghum stalks on more than a dozen large pits were pushed away, all the bird cages of the soldiers were opened, and the birds flapped their wings and flew out of the cages, chirping and quacking, and rushed into the sky.
Fearlessly pounced on the Japanese plane.
Zhou Yi watched one by one and a group of tens of thousands of birds rushing into the sky and pounced on the enemy planes. He was also shocked. He never thought that the birds could be so powerful. He couldn't bear it.
Zhu muttered to himself: "The teacher is right, what I let fly is not a bird, but a cannonball!"
The Japanese planes were basically in an attack formation of two, and the speed when swooping and strafing was so fast that there was no time to react. No, the leader of the first group of Japanese planes was hit first, and that guy was flying a fighter jet.
Just as he was shooting with a ferocious smile, suddenly appeared in front of his eyes
It was completely dark, and as soon as the word "birds" appeared in my mind, the windshield shattered, and a fishy smell penetrated my nostrils. My face hurt, my head tilted, and I fainted. The plane went straight.
It was inserted into the ground of the airport and fell apart with a bang.
The next winner was his wingman, who was luckier than him. After the bird crashed through the windshield, it hit his right shoulder. His hand trembled and he let go of the control stick. He saw that the plane was about to be level with the airport.
Kissed by the earth, although this guy couldn't see clearly what he was hungry for, he still endured the pain,
He tenaciously pulled the joystick, trying to pull up the plane. At this time, the guy's luck came to an end, and another bird hit him. This time it hit his eyes directly, and the guy was blinded.
He lost consciousness as soon as it got dark, and the landline, like his lead plane, went to kiss the earth.
Little did the Japanese pilots behind them know what had happened to their companions in front. The planes were still swooping and strafing in accordance with the order of the formation. Naturally, they kept colliding with birds, smashing or exploding.
Birds were flying and singing, and the unlucky Japanese pilots were filled with disbelief and one by one they flew their planes to the airport ground.
After all, the machine guns on the Japanese aircraft were firing, and the flames formed by the bullets devoured the lives of many birds. The black pressure on the airport crushed the bodies of many birds, and there was a strong smell of blood. Fortunately, there were enough birds.
Moreover, they kept flying forward and flying without hesitation until they crashed into a Japanese plane and carried their souls back to the East.
The relatively bulky bomber formation at the back finally discovered something unusual. After the fighter jets became the trophies of the birds, several bombers were also attacked and injured by the birds. After crashing, they began to pull up in an emergency, trying to escape from the attack of the birds and escape.
.
Zhou Yi was really a little confused at this time. He didn't expect that the drama he directed, in which tens of thousands of birds fought against Japanese planes, was so wonderful. They were twenty advanced Japanese fighter planes, and the birds were defeated one after another.
He was bruised and bruised until he fell to the ground and became a pile of scraps.
Liu Jinping next to him also looked surprised, but unlike Zhou Yi, he didn't have so many ideas. Seeing the Japanese bomber about to pull up, he quickly pulled Zhou Yi who was in a daze, and then ordered the balloon to be released.
If it were a balloon, the kid's twenty bombers might actually be able to escape. But each of the soldiers in the guard camp was carrying a dozen or so inflated balloons. There were more than 500 people.
There are more than 5,000 balloons. If released at once, they would basically cover the sky above Ershilibao Airport.
Sure enough, the balloon floated up, and then the east wind flew higher and higher, drifting towards the little Japanese bomber.
At this time, the Japanese pilots were almost scared out of their wits. As far away as Jinan Airport, radio receivers in the Qingdao Airport tower heard exclaiming "Ah! A flock of birds! I encountered a flock of birds."
!" "Oh my God, what is that? I encountered a balloon!" The airport radio receiver couldn't figure out what the pilots were saying. They were obviously going to bomb the Eighth Route Army and rescue Lieutenant General Otaka Kamezo. How could they interact with the birds?
Group, the balloon is opened?
A balloon would burst with a poke, but when it encountered a high-speed flying plane, the fragile balloon became a seducer. An explosion meant that a Japanese plane was injured. A series of explosions must have caused a Japanese aircraft to explode.
The Japanese plane was injured. As things continued, the Japanese bombers began to fall to the ground. At the beginning, the Japanese pilots still remembered to report to the airport that the fighter plane was injured through radio. By the time the plane crashed, these pilots were basically seriously injured.
, unable to control the plane, and even reporting was omitted.
There are also some pilots, navigators, bombardiers, and shooters who parachute, waiting for them are revenge bullets. Because the soldiers of the instructors all know that the division commander is not interested in Japanese prisoners unless they surrender voluntarily, and generally they will take the lead.
Dealing with recalcitrant resistance. Because prisoners are troublesome and they have to waste food, right? Of course, the Eighth Route Army has the discipline of the Eighth Route Army. Prisoners who actually surrender their guns must not be shot. Whoever shoots them will be unlucky and will have to be detained for at least three days.
By the time Feng Dafei excitedly led the fighter formation to the battlefield, there were no more Japanese planes in the sky.
