In fact, even the designers who launched the missile did not expect the power of the missile fired at the Kota Bahru Port.
Because the F-2 missile has an error of more than 100 meters, according to the message sent by the airship radar, the original target of the missile should be the oil depot in the dock area. It is hoped that the explosion of the oil depot can destroy the port facilities. As for what kind of damage can be achieved To what extent, no one has thought about it carefully.
However, the missile accidentally hit the Japanese "Tianlong" class cruiser, which produced unexpected and brilliant results, which no one had thought of beforehand.
The power of the second missile fired at Kedah Port was not so significant.
The 1.5-ton armor-breaking high-explosive warhead plunged into the open space of the dock area, making an earth-shattering sound and a huge shock wave that completely swallowed up a small group of Japanese soldiers on patrol.
However, although the missile blasted a large crater six to seven meters deep and twenty to thirty meters wide, it had no substantial impact on the dock. However, it did affect the commander of the Japanese Southern Expedition Fleet, Ozawa Jisaburo, who witnessed it all. The lieutenant general was shocked.
The Japanese Southern Expedition Fleet, which consists of five heavy cruisers, the Fourth and Fifth Diving Groups and the Ninth and Eleventh Base Area Groups, is mainly responsible for combat needs in the Malay region.
According to the organization of the Japanese Navy, basic naval military regions are set up overseas. The base team is to go out with the ships to set up advance bases. The team organization consists of one gunboat, five minesweepers (sea sweeping team), and six submarine hunting boats (submarine driving team). fleet), seven service ships, eight transport ships, several coastal forts and observation posts, aviation fleet, garrison, etc.
This time, Ozawa Jisaburo led a small fleet to Kedah Port to inspect the construction of coastal forts to prevent possible landing operations by the British army. Just after entering the port, Ozawa Jisaburo was still standing on the flagship "Chokai" While admiring the exotic scenery outside the bridge of the heavy cruiser's command module, I heard a huge explosion. I immediately used a telescope to observe the situation at the dock, and saw the large, dark hole in the distance.
Listening to the shrill air defense sirens issued by the fleet, Ozawa Jisaburo felt that the situation was very strange, and immediately issued an order that the fleet should change from entering the port to departing the port, and not dock in Kedah Port.
Just as the fleet returned to the strait outside, another earth-shattering explosion was heard in the port. It turned out that the second missile had once again visited Kedah Port.
Unfortunately, the missile missed again this time, but there was an unexpected surprise.
The first missile was originally intended to knock out the oil depot at the port, and the second one was intended to blow up the shipyard. However, this one hit the oil depot, and finally the expected big explosion occurred. The fuel fired quickly destroyed the entire Jilin. The attack on Hong Kong turned into a hell on earth, and the screams could be heard miles away.
Having received a report on the mysterious weapons from specialized observers, Lieutenant General Ozawa Jisaburo hurriedly came to the rear deck of the heavy cruiser "Chori Kai" and observed the situation in the harbor through binoculars. He found that the entire Kedah Port had been shrouded in darkness. In the sea of fire and smoke.
Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida, the staff officer of the Navy's Southern Expedition Fleet who followed the commander, asked in disbelief: "No bombers were found, and there was no sound of cannons, but the explosion actually happened in front of our eyes... This is A new weapon invented by the Chinese?"
Lieutenant General Ozawa Jisaburo put down the telescope with lingering fear and looked solemn: "There is no doubt that this is a newly designed weapon. I don't know where it came from or where it will fly to, but from the telescope
The whole process from discovering it to exploding took less than a few seconds, and there was no way to deal with it. According to the power it displayed, I wonder if our capital ship can withstand that powerful impact?
"I am now very suspicious that the Chinese may know that we are going to Kedah Port and try to use this advanced weapon to carry out a devastating blow to our fleet! No, I must report this matter to the Naval Command, and the Chinese will have it under control
We have discovered a mysterious weapon. If we cannot confirm what it is, our navy’s activities in the Strait of Malacca and the Malay Peninsula will be very dangerous!”
Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida hesitated for a moment, but still reported truthfully: "Commander, this is most likely a revenge move by the Chinese..."
"revenge!?"
Lieutenant General Ozawa turned his head and asked: "Yoshida-kun, what do you know?"
Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida said: "Didn't we escort the 18th Division to implement the landing plan before? At that time, I got acquainted with Captain Nishiyama Chido, the combat staff officer of the Tomei detachment. After the Malay War, according to the base camp plan, the Tomei detachment will
Withdrew to the Lanyin Islands, reorganized and entered new battlefields.
"However, the staff officers of the 25th Army believe that they should take advantage of the current high morale of the army to rush along the Malay Peninsula into Siam, and then capture Annan to completely eliminate the Anjia Army, the empire's life and death enemy. Yesterday
I
I received a secret telegram from Captain Nishiyama Qiandu, indicating that the Tomei detachment will launch an attack on the other side of the border this morning! He asked me to advise the commander to go north and bombard Phuket Port when the time is right, and involve the Chinese people.
troops!
"Now that the Chinese revenge has come, I'm worried that the East Coast operation may have failed!"
After saying that, Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida lowered his head, feeling ashamed for betraying his friends. But now the Chinese have an unprecedented means of attack. If the Imperial Navy continues to fight north, it will inevitably be hit by mysterious weapons. Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida is unwilling to do so.
He died young and went to see Amaterasu early before he became a general.
"What? You mean the Tuomei detachment crossed the border and actively attacked the Anjia army?"
Ozawa Jisaburo asked in shock. After getting a positive reply from Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida, he patted his forehead and said sadly: "Confused! So confused! Before this, we and the An family army were in peace, although on other fronts
There were frequent firings, but in this Nanyang area, there was no unpleasantness between the two parties. It was just that the high officials of the empire did not want to completely break up with them and truly cut off trade ties.
"You have a lower status and many things are unclear. According to the empire's friend Mr. Lu Kaiming of the Hong Kong Group, many of the urgently needed drugs, chemicals and electronic products in the empire must be obtained through Nanhua. If the other party cuts off supply, many high-end supplies will
The product may be discontinued. A few years ago, the Empire
It has become popular among high-level officials to give a gift called "brave pill". This refreshing and aphrodisiac drug has been strictly tested and has no toxicity. However, after taking it, people feel more energetic and lively in bed.
His Majesty the Emperor occasionally takes one, and its origin is Nanhua.
"Mr. Lu Kaiming also promised that he is currently doing high-level work in Nanhua. Maybe in a year or two, the Imperial Navy will be able to obtain a precious electronic product that can detect enemy fighters from a long distance. An Jiajun is using this kind of thing.
Easily defeat the Imperial Air Force. If our navy can obtain this kind of electronic product, it will be like adding strength to a tiger. For this reason, Commander Nagano, Marine Minister Oikawa and General Yamamoto are not willing to start a war with Nanhua at this juncture!
"Higher officials in the empire have judged that South China is also taking advantage of this international war for speculation. This can be seen from the war they launched in Central Asia. Now that they have invaded Afghanistan, they are likely to be involved in conflicts with the Soviet Union in the future.
During the protracted war, the Imperial Navy has always adopted the strategy of turning a blind eye to the flow of oil and iron ore into South China, knowing that it cannot conquer them on the battlefield. It can only obtain our urgent needs by maintaining appropriate interactions with them.
something!
"Yoshida-kun, the Chinese do not have a strong navy. They can only stay on land, but the empire can expand our power by conquering the world. When we are like the British, we have imperial territory wherever the sun shines.
That will be the time for the real decisive battle with An Jiajun...
"No, I must report this matter to the commander of the combined fleet, General Yamamoto, so that he can exert a positive influence on the strategic direction of the imperial base camp. Our opponent has developed a mysterious weapon that can attack from a long distance. Until now,
So far, we still don’t know what this thing is, how far its range is, and how many such weapons the enemy has in hand. The Imperial Navy must not fall into a terrible unknown war because of the army’s recklessness!”
Lieutenant Commander Yoshida thought for a moment and suggested:
"Commander, I think we should observe it for a few days and wait until the situation becomes clear! If the army makes a breakthrough on the eastern front and there are new instructions from the base camp, if we report unfavorable military information at this time, we may be attacked by those fanatical soldiers! From 22
Since the Sixth Mutiny, no one knows how many military lieutenant generals and political celebrities have died in assassinations, and the murderers have all been acquitted in the name of patriotism. In this case, we...be cautious!"
Lieutenant General Ozawa Jisaburo was stunned for a moment, with a smile on his face: "That's fine! Let the Army people be embarrassed, otherwise they will only keep their eyes on the land. They don't know that the ocean is the most precious resource. Who can control it?"
Ocean, who can control the world!"
"Commander is wise!" Lieutenant Colonel Yoshida said with sincere admiration.
I don’t know whether the navy deliberately concealed it or the frontline generals were afraid of taking responsibility. Lieutenant General Yamashita Fengwen, the commander of the 25th Army, who was attending a military and political meeting in Xingzhou, and the generals of the divisions and brigades did not know the news of An’s troops dispatched until four days later.
.
The Anjia Army's King Xulun First Group Army, under the jurisdiction of Gu Changfeng Corps, was divided into two groups, led by powerful tanks and armored units, and crossed the border river from Taogong Mansion on the east coast. They easily defeated the remnants of the Tuomei detachment and crossed again.
Crossed the Kelantan River, eliminated the Japanese garrison guarding Kota Bharu, and occupied this seaport city in northeastern Malaya.
The troops then moved all the way south, occupying Bazo, Fudi, Japan and Germany, and other places. They advanced to the southern solid defense line that had been wiped out by heavy rain before ending.
The other route crossed the national border from Sadao Town in Songkhla City, south of the border at Bukit Merah and Chupingshan. With the cooperation of the powerful air force, it broke through the defense of an independent Japanese infantry brigade and captured the west coast of Malaya.
Perlis
.Then the army rolled south, occupied Kedah Port, and once again eliminated an independent Japanese guard brigade at the defense line of Bukit Mertajam and Besar Hill in Penang. They marched straight in and fought all the way to Wuwu Mountain Pass south of Taiping Town, Perak. The operation ended.
The entire battle lasted for a week, and the Japanese troops were wiped out more than 9,000 people, captured more than 2,000 people, and captured 98 large and small cannons, more than 400 grenades, more than 150 light and heavy machine guns, and 5,000 firearms.
There are more than 500 boxes of ammunition left.
When Yamashita Fengwen dispatched troops, the Guards Division, the 5th Division, the 56th Division and the tanks and army aviation units assigned to the 25th Army to actively move northward to regain the lost ground in the north, he suddenly received information.
The Anjia army has retreated and is withdrawing towards the border line, and the source of the information is the news broadcasts of the Syrian government and Nanhua Radio Station.
During the entire operation, the Anjia Army relocated more than 200,000 expatriates from northern Malaya to Songkhla City, and moved all industrial facilities. By December 15, the entire war came to an end.
The Japanese army stationed at the border on the 20th. Captain Nishiyama Chido, who had been hiding in the mountains for a month, came out of the mountains together with all the staff of the Tomei detachment, accompanied by more than a thousand ragged surviving soldiers of the Tomei detachment.
Reported to the garrison, and then reported the entire incident to the 25th Military Headquarters.
With the report of Captain Nishiyama Chido, Lieutenant General Yamashita Tomofumi, the commander of the 25th Army, finally fully understood what happened on the front line. Naturally, he hated Colonel Nogo who took the initiative to provoke the war, and later told the whole process of the conflict.
Reported to Tokyo base camp.
At this time, the debate in the base camp about whether to continue southward or expand the battlefield in China has reached the most critical moment. Yamashita Fengfumi's report, as well as relevant information sent by the navy in a timely manner, immediately gave the southward faction an absolute upper hand.
The bloody storm above Xuzhou suddenly disappeared.
