An Yi was paying attention to the situation of a group of ab26 bombers carrying a large number of 200 kilograms of high-explosive armor-piercing bombs that were attacking the Japanese battleships. Suddenly, he got the latest information about the air battle in Hangzhou and cursed:
"It must be the Americans! Damn it, the Americans even sell their own good stuff to the ***, aren't they afraid of the *** backlash? In the end, this out-of-control force will
Use it against yourself?"
Lin Fei asked in surprise: "Commander, you mean...this new type of bomber is produced by Americans?"
An Yi nodded: "At present, apart from our long-range bombers, only the Americans are researching this thing... According to U.S. intelligence, Boeing developed a military-grade bomber as early as February 2034.
The four-engine bomber prototypes were named xblr-1 and xb-15 successively. They were designed on June 18, 2004, and the model 299 prototype was manufactured on August 16. This kind of fighter crew organization
Nine people, including the pilot and co-pilot, bombardier, navigator/wireless operator and five gunners, has five 12.7mm machine guns, and the internal bomb bay can also accommodate eight 272kg bombs, with a maximum bomb load of 2,176kg. 35
The first flight was successful in Seattle on July 28, 2011. The military named it yb-17. The y refers to the use of the Air Force's reserve funds to purchase these aircraft instead of normal allocations.
"The Air Force originally planned to order 220 aircraft. Due to its confidence in this new bomber, Boeing produced 300 aircraft in one go. As a result, the military only placed an order for 65 aircraft. In the end, it was reduced to only 65 aircraft.
Thirteen were ordered, and the remaining 287 were all placed in the hangar, occupying a large amount of Boeing's R&D funds.
As a result, the entire company is in trouble. I guess this time Boeing quietly reached an agreement with the Japanese and sold all 283 bombers to the Japanese... What a bastard.
I don’t know which Sun Tzu discovered this tactic of bomber swarm operations, but the Japanese actually used it against us.”
"No way?" Lin Fei opened his mouth and asked in disbelief: "The Americans are even willing to sell such a good bomber to the Japanese?"
"Okay!? Without actual combat proof, who knows which fighter is good and which is bad?"
An Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now the U.S. economy has fallen into an endless cycle of terrible economic crisis. The national economy has been experiencing negative growth for several consecutive months. Now as long as it can attract orders to the United States, even if a company secretly violates the rules, the U.S. government will open its eyes.
Close one eye.
"Besides, I heard that the YB-17 had major accidents in several previous tests. The most serious one was a major accident that crashed and caught fire during takeoff at Wright Field in October 2035. The entire crew was killed.
The Air Force pilots and Boeing test pilots who participated in the test all completed
Eggs caused the Air Force senior officials to believe that this four-engine bomber had too many safety risks. Equipping this aircraft would be seriously irresponsible for the lives of Air Force officers, so they began to equip the Glass db-1 twin-engine bomber developed by Douglas Aircraft Company.
, the military model of this bomber is b-18.
"The B-18 is much slower than the YB-17, has a short range, less bomb load, and weak defensive weapons. The only positive advantage is that the cost is only half of the YB-17, because its basic design is derived from the DC-2
The design risks of passenger aircraft seemed much smaller, so the U.S. Air Force ordered 300 aircraft at once, while the YB-17 was completely relegated to the sidelines.”
(Note: I have a list of imported test machines of the Japanese Navy in May 1937, including the YB-17. Therefore, despite repeated setbacks, the Japanese army will find ways to import it. The real reason why there is no such purchase in history
The case is related to the Japanese army's too smooth fighting on the Chinese battlefield.)
"What should we do now? This kind of bomber has thick skin and strong firepower. Once it adopts a targeted formation combat method, it will be like a turtle shell, which is difficult to break..." Lin Fei shook his head worriedly.
.
"Fear comes from the unknown. Now that we know what model it is, it is not too difficult to deal with it. The external armor of this heavy bomber is extremely thick, but it is not invulnerable. Our 20mm cannon is enough to deal with it. Of course, it is modified from a general-purpose machine gun.
7.6
The 2-caliber aviation machine gun can no longer meet the needs of current air combat. We must look for a more powerful aviation machine gun... Alas, after this air combat, the weapon system of our A26 must be modified. In the future
New models also need to be
Using a brand new weapon system, the already finalized Mosquito fighter and A27 fighter have to be reworked and redesigned and modified according to the changes in the weapon system... Damn it, the original Japanese aircraft focused too much on flexibility and were thin-skinned.
It's very difficult to get a few shots and we will be dead. Our air combat weapons are sufficient. However, now the Yankees have sold their good treasures to little *** without even understanding the situation, causing us to have to fight.
With the upgrades, life will be difficult!" An Yi cursed.
Seeing An Yi's disapproving look, a group of generals in the war room swept away their initial fear and anxiety, settled down, and settled into their positions.
An Yi is indeed not without purpose. To deal with this new air combat mode, An Yi, who is a pilot himself, has his own considerations.
Since the firepower is not strong enough, the 7.62-caliber aviation machine guns are changed to 12.7-caliber ones, and all are replaced with ammunition chains or belts, which greatly increases the amount of ammunition the fighter can carry, and the cannon on the nose is also changed from 20mm.
into 2
3mm, this will at least double the lethality... Well, we need to increase the firepower. Two machine guns are not enough, so we can install four, or even six or eight, and a machine gun on the nose.
If it's not enough, install two doors, three doors, or even four doors.
As Tesla focused its research on sending large coils to space last month, the Syrian government has made considerable progress in rocket launcher research, saying that it may not necessarily be able to launch a powerful rocket launcher.
, deployed fighter planes, and used the terrifying armor-breaking capabilities of rockets to deal with the Japanese four-shot bomber formation.
Team, haven’t you got it right? Anyway, many breakthroughs have been made in engine research. Next time, we will adopt a more powerful air-cooled engine, learn from the American fighter development ideas, increase the armor thickness of the fighter, and increase the flight speed of the fighter. Through vigorous efforts
Improve the survivability of air combat to fight against the small *** air force.
Thinking of this, An Yi quickly wrote down his fighter development ideas with pen and paper, and then asked Shen Fengdao to define this telegram as top secret and send it to the Xu Mansion through a special code. Gong Qian handed it over to a dedicated person for research on the subject. As long as Tesla, a science geek, is here, and Ding Molan, a strange woman known as Tesla's descendant, is assisted, any problem can be solved... Perhaps this new model will be named a28.
Just as An Yi was thinking about it, the air defense sirens that had just stopped sounded loudly again.
An Yi, who woke up from a sweet dream, and Lin Fei looked at each other, with horror in their eyes: The fierce fighting on the front line in Hangzhou was going on, and based on the time in the air, the Japanese army's huge mixed fighter group was no longer enough to support a large-scale Continuous fighting, this time the air defense siren sounded, it must be the Japanese fighter group located in Pudong.
...
Hangzhou Bay.
A large and terrifying group of warships cruised in the waters southeast of Hangzhou Bay and northeast of Ningbo Port.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the Southwest Air Force's AB26 bomber formation formed a "herringbone" shape and flew over the sea of Hangzhou Bay. Under the guidance of the reconnaissance aircraft, it quickly rushed towards the Japanese warships.
At an altitude of nine thousand meters, Lieutenant Colonel Ye Fei, the leader of the Sixth Squadron of the Second Regiment of the Southwest Air Force, who had taken over from Lieutenant Mu Chun as the security guard, introduced the situation of the Japanese fleet in a serious tone:
"The *** naval fleet on the front line of Hangzhou Bay has four aircraft carriers, four battleships, twelve cruisers, twenty destroyers, and several gunboats and supply ships. It has extremely powerful air defense firepower. We have an S3 reconnaissance aircraft In order to detect the density of Japanese anti-aircraft fire, he dived to an altitude of 1,000 meters and was hit by a dense rain of bullets fired from the ship. Second Lieutenant Zhao Zhiyun, who was piloting the fighter plane, died heroically.
"Through this test, we found that the Japanese warship group's air defense formation is extremely reasonable and can attack the entire airspace in a short time. Unless we are willing to pay a heavy price, we can only complete the mission by high-altitude bombing. Moreover, the Japanese On the two aircraft carriers in the warship group, there are more than forty Japanese Navy Mitsubishi Type 96 carrier-based fighter jets that have just risen from the hangar below, which are extremely threatening to us. Therefore, I suggest: The current situation is an enemy We are strong and we are weak, we should take preserving our strength as our top priority and cancel this combat mission!"
All the air force officers who participated in the bombing felt heavy. When the fleet took off, they already knew that the air battle in Hangzhou was unfavorable and that thirty of our army's fighter planes had fallen. A trace of wind rose in everyone's heart. Han's tragic feelings.
Although the air regiment had previously successfully attacked the Japanese main fleet in Haizhou Bay and achieved the brilliant achievement of sinking the Japanese aircraft carrier Kaga, this was only when the sky was beautiful and the clouds were thick, and the Japanese fleet was carried away and caught off guard. The results obtained below. The sky is cloudless today, and Japanese surface ships can detect the direction of the incoming fighter planes from a distance. And judging from the close cooperation between the Japanese navy, army and air force in carrying out the mission, we must have expected that the Southwest Air Force might Air raids occurred and took precautions against them.
"Attention all bombers, we are now starting to descend in altitude. When we reach an altitude of 6,000 meters, we will pass over the Japanese warships and conduct high-altitude bomb drops. Please note that the current situation between the enemy and ourselves in the Songhu area has shown that the enemy is strong and we are weak. If we attack our fighters early, If it is used up, who will defend this land in the future? Everyone, please carry out the orders, I will be responsible for any problems!"
Major General Zhang Pu, commander of the Air Force 2 Regiment, who served as the commander-in-chief of the bombing, loudly issued the order.
The Japanese warship group on the sea surface of Hangzhou Bay immediately sounded the air defense battle alarm the moment the traces of the bomber formation appeared in the northern sky. All the muzzles of the anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns pointed diagonally at the sky.
The decks of the completed Soryu aircraft carrier and the old "Ryujo" aircraft carrier, which can accommodate 48 fighter planes, quickly became busy. Mitsubishi Type 96 fighter jets drove onto the runway and flew into the sky.
The bomber group had no intention of lowering its altitude, and began to drop bombs while the surface ships' anti-aircraft guns roared in unison.
Each bomber's magazine opened automatically, and ten high-explosive armor-piercing bombs weighing 200 kilograms were dropped like hailstones. After the bombers were thrown, they showed no intention of slowing down to see the results, and continued flying towards the southern sky until they broke away.
In the combat airspace, they got rid of the Japanese Type 96 fighter jets that were following them, and then turned to fly west.
Sixty bombers dropped 600 high-explosive armor-piercing bombs on the same sea area in one breath. Even if most of the bombs missed, there was always a time when a blind cat encountered a dead mouse, and two small destroyers were directly hit on the bridge.
,200 kg class wear
The terrifying penetration ability of the armor bomb was fully demonstrated. It directly bit through the thick ship armor and penetrated into the interior of the ship. A violent explosion occurred immediately, triggering the explosion of the ammunition compartment. The continuous explosions directly tore the hull into two halves, and then
Slowly sinking in fire and smoke.
One battleship and two cruisers were hit on the deck respectively, breaking through large holes and igniting raging fires. However, due to poor landing points and the armor of both battleships and cruisers, which was far inferior to that of destroyers, no damage was done to the ships.
fatal
There were four gunboats and supply ships. Although they were not directly hit, the bombs landed too close to the ship, and the ship's tonnage was too small. Huge waves tens of meters high were set off, and the ship was suddenly hit.
These unfortunate ships capsized.
After a wave of attacks, the sea surface was densely packed with sailors jumping into the sea. A large number of search and rescue boats were quickly dispatched to rescue the Japanese sailors onto nearby ships.
Just as Anjiajun's bomber formation was attacking Japanese warships, more than 400 fighter planes from the Army Aviation Corps at Pudong Airport were divided into dozens of formations, suddenly took off, and headed for the hinterland of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui.
At this time, the Anjiajun Air Force had been mobilized, all major airports were empty, and there were no more fighter jets to fight against the Japanese fighter group.
The Japanese fighter planes in Pudong can be described as diverse, including the American Curtiss
XP-40 fighter, Italian CR.32 biplane fighter, and some newly purchased fighter prototypes from European and American countries, such as "***" 300 and K5054 prototypes, "Hurricane" prototype, etc., plus
The Japanese ki27 Nakajima 97, ki43 Hayabusa fighter jets and Mitsubishi 92 type and 97 type heavy attack aircraft formed a huge battle group, with the Pudong airport as the center, sweeping towards the inland areas.
.
At Kunshan Airport, when the heavy roar of enemy planes and the scream of falling bombs were heard in the sky, the people in Kunshan County who had not yet had time to evacuate were frightened and fled in all directions, helplessly looking for a place to hide. The airport was also in chaos.
Chaos, this
It was a rather tragic situation - the Japanese fighter planes were like a group of arrogant thieves, flying over the airport without any hindrance. They avoided the ground's anti-aircraft fire while circling and dropping bombs.
.
Although from time to time Japanese fighter planes were hit by barrages from the quadruple machine guns of ground anti-aircraft artillery vehicles, anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns from anti-aircraft positions, and fell to the ground whimpering with violent explosions, the bombs dropped by Japanese fighter planes also
It hit the airport command center, oil depots, ammunition depots, runways, pilot rest houses and other buildings. Soon, fires burst into the sky throughout the entire Kunshan Airport.
Seeing that the airport had been successfully destroyed, the Japanese fighter jets began to carry out precise attacks on various air defense positions. They used bombs and low-altitude flying strafing to clear all the anti-aircraft fire on the ground. At the same time, they knocked the Japanese and civilians running around upside down.
.
Major General Lu Gengchen, commander of the Third Regiment of the Southwest Air Force, had just rushed out of the airport command center when a blazing heat wave came from behind, and the house full of antennas was already in a sea of flames.
Major General Lu Gengchen lay on the grass, motionless, letting the bullets like splashing water fall "pop-pop" all around, and he wanted to cry without tears. At this moment, this majestic major general of the Southwest Air Force felt as if he had become a human being.
wooden man, against four
He was unaware of the dangers and death threats that surrounded him. He witnessed with his own eyes one after another Japanese fighter planes roared in, dived, and strafed. The aircraft's machine guns spit out tongues of flame, then raised the nose of the plane, dived again, and strafed again.
...and the cycle begins again and again.
The anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine gun positions on the ground were quickly destroyed under the close cooperation of Japanese fighter jets and bombers and the high density of bombs and aviation machine gun bullets. Twenty vehicles equipped with the Third Regiment of the Southwest Air Force
After the four anti-aircraft tanks also killed three Japanese fighter planes, they all burst into flames and turned into piles of scrap metal.
Lu Gengchen raised his head in depression. With his keen eyesight, he could almost clearly see the proud and ugly face of the Japanese pilot in the cockpit.
This battle was really frustrating!
The Japs were flying around in the sky, howling and wreaking havoc. The lives of Paoze and the people were torn alive in front of Lu Gengchen's eyes. As a Southwest Air Force flying general who had flown for more than two thousand hours, he could only hide in front of his eyes.
Sitting in a daze in the grass. Once an eagle loses its wings, it may be no different than a hen pecking in a manure pit. How sad!
Of course, this is not or cannot be regarded as anyone's fault, because things in the world are often like this. Although you are passionate and full of ambitions to serve the country, fate puts you in an embarrassing situation of being helpless and powerless.
Today, the Air Force 3rd Regiment was dispatched in full force to attack the Japanese fighter planes. This was not wrong. The fault was that the Southwest Air Force still had too few troops on hand to take care of everything.
The first batch of Japanese planes achieved their combat objectives. After bombing and strafing, their ammunition was basically exhausted and they began to return one after another. Fires were raging everywhere at Kunshan Airport, ground anti-aircraft firepower was completely lost, and many important buildings were completely destroyed. The only thing
Fortunately, the damage to the runway was not very serious. Lu Gengchen looked up at the clear blue sky and was filled with worry. He knew that this was his last chance. Once the second attack wave of Japanese fighter planes arrived, not only would the airport not be able to be saved,
At that time, even if the fighter planes of our third regiment returned, they would not be able to land.
As early as when the siren sounded, Major General Lu Gengchen asked the forward commander of the Southwest Air Force for the fighter planes to return as soon as possible, and the headquarters also agreed. However, because the airport command center had been destroyed by the first wave of Japanese bombings, although Commander Lu saw through the situation, he did not
I don’t know where the three fighter squadrons of the 13th, 14th and 15th Air Force Regiment have flown to now and when they will arrive at Kunshan Airport.
Just when Lu Gengchen was anxious, there was a slight motor oscillation in the air that was not easily noticeable, as if there was telepathy. Lu Gengchen's heart contracted violently, then he opened his mouth and took a big breath, and the blood all over his body instantly
Boiling. Yes, the ears will not deceive themselves, it is a
The 26th fighter group returned. Lu Gengchen jumped up, waved his hands, and staggered towards the runway. This situation was very similar to a drowning man grabbing Canban - not only to save his life, but also to take revenge.
The speedboat will carry him to pour out all the hatred and anger of an Anjia Army air force officer to the Japanese.
About a minute or two later, the silver A26 fighter jet made a bumpy emergency landing close to the ground. Immediately afterwards, more than 20 fighter jets painted with the Flying Fox logo landed on the runway one after another. Airport personnel swarmed over, and they were busy.
Use the surviving fuel trucks and ammunition trucks to fill up the fighter planes one by one, and then fill them up with ammunition.
Lu Gengchen rushed forward, stepped on the A26 fighter jet that landed first, pulled the original pilot out of the cockpit, sat in, and then shouted "Let's go". As the engine roared, the A26 fighter jet began to slide quickly.
Heading towards the runway, braving the thick smoke billowing from everywhere in the airport, we fluttered our wings and took off.
The pilots of the Air Force 3rd Regiment were in high spirits when they saw that their commander was actually taking part in the battle this time. He quickly closed the cockpit and stumbled after Lu Gengchen to take off.
Just at this time, the second attack wave of Japanese fighter planes arrived over Kunshan Airport, and the airport was immediately filled with the terrifying and heavy buzz of Japanese fighter planes.
The unexpected appearance of the A26 fighter group disrupted the offensive formation of the Japanese aircraft group. Therefore, the bombers that could have dropped bombs leisurely and strafed all dropped their bombs into the paddy fields outside the airport.
Now that Lu Gengchen has wings, he is no longer a silent piece of wood, or an old hen pecking in a manure pit. All his spiritual power is supported by the powerful material power of the A26 fighter jet. You know, just
With spiritual strength, one cannot resist the Japanese army
The fighter planes attacked, so when Lu Gengchen made the A26 fighter jet full of bullets and hatred roar into chaos, he was leading the way. Not only did he not feel lonely or timid at all when he was outnumbered, but he felt like a tiger
The majestic feeling of being among a flock of sheep or a cat and mouse.
In fact, this is indeed a duel between a tiger and a sheep.
Since the returning Japanese mixed fleet reported to its headquarters through radio waves that Kunshan Airport had lost its ability to resist and the runway was destroyed, it only needed to send a group of bombers to deal with the aftermath and completely destroy the airport. Therefore, before attacking the interior of the mainland
Among the first group of aircraft, the Japanese commander temporarily deployed 22 bombers, preparing to completely paralyze Kunshan Airport.
Therefore, when Commander Lu quickly approached the Japanese bomber in his fighter jet, he effortlessly caught the huge, slow fuselage of the Japanese bomber. He could even see the Japanese pilot's panicked and ugly face clearly from the cockpit.
When it became clear, an unspeakable pleasure of revenge arose in my heart.
The first round of confrontation lasted less than five minutes. Commander Lu's aviation machine gun was like a whip lashing the Japanese fighter planes. Soon there were two Mitsubishi Type 97 heavy bombardment aircraft dragging thick heavy bombs. The smoke fell to the ground one after another. One of them whirled and fell into the sparkling Puppet Lake. A huge water column splashed on the lake. The other one hit a residential house in Kunshan County, exploded and caught fire. Falling apart.
The other A26 fighter jets that were outflanking, like fast falcons, quickly caught up and surrounded the heavy Japanese bombers. The sound of gunfire rumbled in the sky, and long traces of cannon and aircraft machine gun bullets were trailed everywhere. They were all shaking. The Japanese bombers threw away all their bombs in panic, trying to escape faster, and used their only tower machine gun to resist desperately, but this still could not help them escape the imminent disaster.
Athletes from the Southwest Air Force, driving extremely powerful A26 fighter jets, chased them from behind. The roaring aviation machine gun bullets and cannon shells were like the flying god of death, tightly grabbing the terrified Japanese bombers. Like broken wood chips, it flew apart, exploded in the air, burst into flames, and fell apart.
This battle lasted less than a quarter of an hour. Nine Japanese heavy bombers were shot down and many more were damaged. The Japanese army paid a heavy price.
However, not all airports have the good luck of Kunshan Airport.
In this wave of attacks, the newly completed Songjiang Airport, Jiading Airport and Taicang cabins suffered heavy damage and are no longer able to be used. Suzhou Airport, Wuxi Airport, Changshu Airport, and Jiaxing Airport were severely hit, while Qingpu Airport was close to Dianshan Lake. , In addition, this new airport was built using paddy fields to lay slag, bricks, and coal ash. It was surrounded by green fields. The location was relatively hidden and it was not discovered by Japanese fighter planes, so it was lucky enough to escape.
The worst thing happened was Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport. The entire airport was bombed and huge craters several meters deep could be seen everywhere. All the facilities were scrapped and could no longer be put into use.
Because almost all airports were under attack, the Southwest Air Force's ab26 bomber group did not return to the originating airport after completing its mission. Instead, it headed to Nanchang Airport to temporarily avoid the attack of enemy aircraft.
...
In the city of Nanjing, as the air raid sirens suddenly sounded, the atmosphere became extremely tense.
The refugees in the Songhu area, who did not follow the Jiangnan Group's arrangements to evacuate, but thought of the capital Nanjing and then decided their family's future whereabouts based on the situation, just stopped to take a breath when they suddenly heard the shrill sound of the air raid siren. In shock, they were again Weeping for father and mother, dragging children and daughters with them, they ran desperately out of the city.
Wang Jingwei's car drove slowly through the streets of Nanjing, honking its horn amidst the shrill sound of air raid sirens and constant collisions with surrounding refugees.
In the carriage, Wang Jingwei waved his hand somewhat distractedly, and his secretary Liu Shoujiang opened the window knowingly.
Wang Jingwei poked his head out and saw the dirty, tired and panic-stricken faces of the refugees supporting the elderly and young outside the car window. He also saw the sick and injured refugees lying on the street, covered with flies and maggots. Her tender, womanly face flushed red, and she murmured:
"Who can see this tragic scene of tens of thousands of people with their homes destroyed and displaced without feeling moved? How could the people deserve such suffering? Isn't it possible that apart from war, China and Japan can't coexist peacefully?"
Liu Shoujiang didn't know what Wang Jingwei meant by this, so he smiled and complimented: "The chairman cares about the welfare of the people, and he is really a model for officials in the world. In Shoujiang's memory, this seems to be the first time that the air defense siren has been sounded in Nanjing since the war began. Compared with China and Japan,
This is already a remarkable achievement!" (Note: Wang Jingwei has always served as the chairman of the Central Political Council, so Liu Shoujiang called him chairman.)
Wang Jingwei was in a heavy heart and sighed repeatedly: "It's sad, it's a pity! Now China and Japan are like two chess pieces. They can't help themselves. They are being manipulated by others to catch and fight against each other. Both sides will lose. It's hateful and annoying!"
"
Liu Shoujiang asked with some confusion: "Chairman, if we say that the Chinese Communist Party manipulates them, it is still possible, but the Chinese Communist Party itself is a great power and has the third most powerful navy in the world. Who can control them?"
?”
Wang Jingwei leaned on the back seat: "Obviously, Americans can only be Americans! Americans not only provide Japan with oil, rubber, steel and weapons technology, but they are seeing Japan dying, and the Sino-Japanese War is about to end.
, and quickly sold his most advanced fighter jets to the ***, I was afraid
Even if the world is at peace, their orders will disappear. Only when the whole world continues to fight, can American capitalists continue to gain benefits, and the United States can use the advantages of international factories to quickly get out of the quagmire of economic crisis and continue to consolidate its number one industry
status of a great power.
"Shoujiang, I wonder if you have ever thought about it. Since September 18th, the Communist Party has plundered so much gold and silver from China. Why are you still so poor? So where has all that wealth gone now?"
Liu Shoujiang's heart moved, and he followed Wang Jingwei's tone and replied: "Chairman, could it be the United States?"
Wang Jingwei nodded appreciatively: "Yes, those gold and silver are now in the vaults of major banks in the United States, converted into oil, steel, rubber and other materials urgently needed by the country, as well as various advanced technologies to fight with our China.
Then the Japanese continued to use the looted items to purchase from American chaebols. So, when China and Japan went to war, it was actually the insidious and cunning Americans who benefited in the end!"
This was the first time Liu Shoujiang heard such a novel point of view, and he couldn't accept it for a while. Wang Jingwei added: "So, my friends in ***, I hope we can give up resistance and jointly build a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, where China and Japan
Countries must join hands to deal with the exploitation and oppression of white people."
"ah!?"
Liu Shoujiang suddenly understood that it turned out that Wang Jingwei was looking for an excuse to surrender!
However, now that Chiang Kai-shek has a strong army and a dominant force, is Wang Jingwei sure that he can convince Chiang Kai-shek? Perhaps today's air raid can find a reason for Wang Jingwei's theory of surrender! Now Liu Shoujiang and Wang Jingwei have a relationship where both prosper and suffer.
So when he saw Wang Jingwei's expectant eyes, Liu Shoujiang could only say with a smile: "The Chairman's insightful words, every word of which is precise, point to the essence of the matter, Shoujiang admires him!"
Wang Jingwei closed his eyes proudly and stopped talking, but Liu Shoujiang's heart was disturbed. If Wang Jingwei insisted on surrendering, what should he do? Could he be considered a traitor?
...
In the airspace southeast of Nanjing, a huge Japanese fleet of fighter jets, bombers and reconnaissance aircraft flew over Nanjing, the capital of the Republic of China.
The A25 and A26 fighter jets of the Third Group of the Central Air Force stationed at Nanjing Airport, the Fourth Group at Huai'an Airport, and the Fifth Group at Xuzhou Airport were already under radar warning and were ready. As soon as the two sides met, they were in the southeast of Nanjing City.
A fierce air battle broke out in the airspace of the Qinhuai River.
This is completely a fierce battle of wits and courage, chasing and escaping, rolling left and right, rushing up and down, fighting directly with the support of wind and cloud, and the color of the world changes!
People in the Nanjing area, whether they have fled here or have been living here, will give out huge cheers whenever they see a plane with a plaster flag on it whimpering and landing. On the contrary, if a fighter plane with a blue sky and a white sun on the ground is red.
When it falls, it emits bursts of lamentation.
A Japanese pilot parachuted in time and landed safely. However, just ten minutes later, he was surrounded by angry Chinese people who rushed to the scene after hearing the news. They attacked him with picks and sticks and killed him on the spot.
The air battle was very fierce. One of the Japanese fighter planes was hit, dragging a long plume of smoke, and fell into Nanjing City. However, it was quickly hit by anti-aircraft artillery deployed around Nanjing City, and it broke into pieces in the air.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Central Air Force remembered that the Southwest Air Force's air defense brigade was deployed outside Nanjing. They woke up from a dream and quickly retreated to the Nanjing airspace. However, the Japanese fighter group may have smelled the smell of danger, or perhaps it was fuel.
They ran out of ammunition and ammunition, so they turned around and returned home.
Eighteen A25 fighter jets of the Central Air Force were damaged in this battle, five A26 fighter jets were damaged, and all pilots who parachuted were rescued. The Japanese army's losses were almost twice that of the Chinese Air Force, including seven Curtiss XP-40 fighter jets and Ki27 Nakajima.
Twelve Type 97 fighter jets, nine Mitsubishi Type 92 heavy critical strike aircraft, four Type 97 heavy critical strike aircraft, and six Ki43 Falcon fighter jets. All the pilots who parachuted were beaten to death by the Chinese people with sticks.
.
...
In Wuhu airspace, a Southwest Airlines passenger plane flying from Nanjing to Syria was discovered by a Japanese squadron. The leader, Major Kuroda, followed him for several minutes and finally determined that it was a Southwest Airlines plane owned by An Jiajun, the empire's mortal enemy.
The company's airliner.
According to international conventions, civil aviation aircraft flying along normal routes should be protected, and no warring parties are allowed to attack them.
Unfortunately, war is an extraordinary behavior in extraordinary times. The Yamato nation loves war precisely because it is unwilling to stick to routine. As soon as Kuroda saw the slender silver-white fuselage of the Southwest Airlines A5 passenger plane, he felt his heart surge.
With an uncontrollable desire to commit crime.
At this time, throughout the land of Jiangnan, the Chinese and Japanese air forces were engaging in fire and fighting everywhere. The Japanese pilots' war passion was surging, and there was no rationality at all. The Japanese pilots' eyes were flashing with machine guns.
Fire spewed violently from its mouth, so for the Japanese officers, war itself was law, and all international conventions had no effect.
So, Major Kuroda decisively issued the order to attack, and two heavily armed Japanese fighter jets pounced on him. Major Kuroda opened fire himself, and the first dense rain of bullets slantly cut off the aircraft manufactured by the Syrian Aircraft Factory.
A wing of a civil airliner that can accommodate twenty-eight passengers. Half a minute later, accurate aviation machine guns fired again.
The tail fin of the passenger plane fell off, blasting two big holes in the passenger cabin. The dirty Japanese pilots had expected to be satisfied watching the passenger plane spin painfully in the sky, dragging long black smoke and tilting down, but unexpectedly, the passenger plane did not burst into flames or explode.
Or it may be shattered into pieces, it just stumbles and makes an emergency landing on a river beach, surviving.
This scene made Major Kuroda even more angry. One of the biggest weaknesses of the Yamato people is their low self-esteem. They often say: Please commit suicide to His Majesty the Emperor! As if letting others die is a great honor.
Now China passenger plane does not
The fact that they wanted to die made Major Kuroda feel very insulted and their self-esteem was hurt, so several Japanese planes showed their skills and beat up the Chinese passengers who tried to get out of the cabin to escape, and the passenger plane exploded.
You won't stop until your body is broken into pieces.
Just when Major Kuroda was laughing loudly into the microphone, the fleet of planes rushing to the front line from Nanchang Airport arrived at the right time. Seeing the burning passenger plane on the ground, they understood everything. Major General Gan Buchan, the commander of the Seventh Air Regiment, angrily yelled, "
"Beast", and then led three squadrons of forty fighter jets to rush towards the Japanese fighter jets.
In order to ensure endurance, the Japanese troops in this formation are all equipped with Ki43 Falcon fighter jets.
During the battle, the Air Force 7th Regiment firmly grasped the combat principles against Falcon fighter jets summarized by Major General Liu Ziyun, leader of the Air Force 6th Regiment in North China, and adopted hit-and-run tactics, rapid dives, and continuous penetration. Finally, it sacrificed twelve lives on itself.
At the cost of one fighter plane, he wiped out all twenty-two invading Falcon fighter jets, avenging the thirty passengers and crew members on the passenger plane.
...
For Feng Yuxiang, the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone, today was a narrow escape from death.
In the theater headquarters in Suzhou, Feng Yuxiang was shocked when he heard that fighting broke out in Hangzhou. He immediately took his entourage and headed towards Hangzhou City via the highway. As soon as the car reached the Taihu Lake, a crow-like Japanese aircraft overhead headed from the east.
Flying from the west, there was an explosion that shook the ground, followed by thick smoke and fire.
The car was driving forward crazily while braving gunpowder smoke. Japanese fighter planes were hotly pursuing it in the sky. Feng Yuxiang had no choice but to evacuate to the melon fields with his entourage. An enemy plane flew at low altitude, including the pilot and the plane.
We could see the machine guns very clearly, but the enemy planes did not strafe or bomb, they circled for a few times and then flew away.
The car continued to move forward. On the road, six Japanese fighter planes followed Feng Yuxiang's car and circled and bombed it again. Feng Yuxiang desperately ordered the driver to drive forward despite the bullets.
"If an enemy plane drops a bomb, it will be hard to escape. I should shout long live the Chinese nation. Even though I die, I will leave this magnificent slogan as my nation's last cry for liberation." General Feng said to his entourage.
It was as if he was blessed by gods and Buddhas. Under the crazy bombing by the Japanese fighter jets, Feng Yuxiang was unscathed and soon arrived at a place 25 kilometers away from Jiaxing County. At this time, the Japanese fighter jets were bombing Jiaxing Airport.
Japanese fighter jets flying back and forth frequently targeted Feng Yuxiang's car.
The result was that although Feng Yuxiang was very reluctant, the car still stopped and stopped, and Feng Yuxiang was constantly being helped up or dragged out of the car. He lay down in ditches by the roadside and in the mud ponds on the ridges of the fields, covered in mud.
His face was full of filth. But the Japanese fighter planes kept coming. As soon as this one flew away, another one flew over and kept circling overhead. Therefore, Feng Yuxiang's car was unable to reach Jiaxing, let alone
Arrive at Hangzhou.
Feng Yuxiang was very angry and was not used to being dragged around and being fired at with strings of machine gun bullets. He was forced to lie down on the ground and put his face on the cold, wet soil that smelled of pig manure.
The feeling is very unpleasant.
More importantly, Feng Yuxiang's dignity could not bear this humiliation, so he became angry and shouted: "I don't want to ride in the car!" Feng Yuxiang said angrily: "I walk by myself, and revolutionary soldiers cannot call the devil even if they die."
You saw the joke!"
So, the Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and Commander-in-Chief of the Third War Zone, who was looking forward to death, stood up from the ground, took long steps amidst the roar of enemy planes, and walked on the long road leading to Jiaxing City. He kept walking like this.
He arrived in Jiaxing in the evening when his whole body was about to fall apart. Later, he learned over the phone that dozens of Japanese fighter planes had bombed him indiscriminately during the day, and his theater headquarters in Suzhou had been completely destroyed!
