Now that the Dutch East Indies, Sumatra, and Pingmana are all under attack, they need support everywhere, and it is impossible to draw out air forces to support Singapore and the Malay Peninsula, which are relatively weakly attacked, so if they lose one plane, they will lose one less plane, while the Chinese Air Force will always be able to maintain this attack intensity, and one will become stronger and stronger, and the other will become bigger and weaker, and the result is obvious.

However, as a fortress-style port, Singapore's anti-aircraft firepower and fortifications will be strong and strong.

The carrier-based aircraft during World War II were propeller-propulsed, and the thrust-to-weight ratio was not so high, so the carrier-based aircraft needed to be light enough to take off in such a short distance on the aircraft carrier, because they had to reduce their weight, and the bombs carried would naturally not be too heavy, and 900 kilograms was basically the upper limit.

According to the one-to-one ratio of fighters to bombers and torpedo planes on aircraft carriers, there are only more than 200 bombers and torpedo planes on the seven aircraft carriers of the Chinese Pacific Fleet, and the Malay Peninsula covers an area of more than 200,000 square kilometers.

When Chen Shaokuan and Gui Yongqing were formulating the plan, they summarized these situations and handed them to Jiang Haoran, who immediately smiled dumbly and said, "Aren't there still hundreds of Flying Fortress strategic bombers at Chittagong Airport?" ”

Chen Shaokuan puffed out his eyes and exclaimed, "What? No...... In total, the maximum range of the B29 bomber is only more than 5,000 kilometers, and the combat radius cannot exceed 2,600 kilometers, but the unilateral distance from Chittagong to Singapore is more than 3,000 kilometers. ”

The B29 is a four-engine heavy propeller bomber designed and produced by Boeing in the United States, also known as the Super Flying Fortress.

It was the main strategic bomber in the Asian theater of World War II, and it was also the largest aircraft in the air forces of various countries during World War II, known as "the strongest bomber in history", with a maximum bomb load of nine tons.

As an important military port of the Allied Forces, Chittagong is of course indispensable to equip with this kind of heavy bomber, if this behemoth can be driven over Singapore, thousands of pounds of heavy aerial bombs rain down, it is really enough for the little devils on the island to drink a pot.

Faced with Chen Shaokuan and Gui Yongqing's doubts, Jiang Haoran did not explain, and ordered Lin Long to send a telegram to Nimitz immediately, informing him that he would need to land at Palembang Airport in three days, so they must take full control of Palembang Airport within two days and improve all the facilities at the airport.

Chen Shaokuan and Gui Yongqing suddenly realized that with Palembang Airport, B29 is fully capable of the bombing mission in front of them.

Nimitz quickly telegraphed back, informing him that the battle was going very smoothly, that the trapped troops in Palembang had been completely relieved, that the two armies had converged, that the troops had begun to launch an all-round counterattack against the island army, and that it was expected that they would be able to control Palembang tomorrow, and that Jiang Haoran's request was no problem at all.

Jiang Haoran raised the telegram in his hand and said to the two: "Now you all understand, the next step is up to you, within three days, I hope to hear the good news that we are fully in control of the air power." ”

"Don't worry, take the seat, and promise to complete the task!" The two of them stood up in unison.

……

Mondaw, Myanmar.

Since the Battle of Mandalay, the expeditionary force has occupied Mendo and Ringanqiang behind it.

Because Yangon, an important port for maritime transportation, is still in the hands of the island army, Jiang Haoran opened up a sea transportation line between Chittagong and Mengdo, and Mengdo has become an important port.

Therefore, the importance of Mengdu is indescribable.

At present, the defenders of Mengdu are Luo Zhuoying's Far 2nd Army.

At this moment, on the wharf of the port, Dai Anlan, deputy commander-in-chief of the Far Second Group Army and lieutenant general of the 200th Division, stood in the wind in military uniform.

In the harbor in front of him, countless warships docked, and dense groups of heavily armed soldiers were beginning to board the ships in an orderly manner.

Farther away, several huge battleships and cruisers roamed, and on the flagpoles of the ships, the blue sky and the red flags were hunting in the wind.

What is strange is that all the soldiers of the ship are wearing camouflage combat uniforms of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team, from tactical backpacks, steel helmets, high-top leather shoes to weapons and equipment all over the body.

However, if you look closely, the logos on their shoulders and steel helmets are obviously different, there are eagle heads, tiger heads, bear heads, etc., etc., but you can't see a white wolf head, but above the pocket on the left chest, there is a unified logo, a rectangular three-finger-wide piece of thick cloth with a black background, embroidered with a gray wolf head, open the mouth of the blood basin to reveal a few long fangs.

They are the special combat teams of all divisions and regiments of the expeditionary force, and at this moment they already have a resounding name - the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team.

The expeditionary force has a total of 22 infantry divisions, each division has a special combat team of 148 people according to the establishment of the Snow Wolf special combat team, and each regiment also has a special combat team of 48 people, and the three regiments of one division are 144 people, so one division is close to 300 people, that is to say, the strength of the Langya special combat brigade at this time is close to 6,600 people, which is already a strengthened brigade establishment.

And this unit is completely trained according to the teaching materials of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team, except that they are better at jungle warfare.

"Report, the wolf's tooth special combat team has completed boarding, please instruct!"

A tall team member with a broad waist and round shoulders ran to Dai Anlan and stood up and saluted, and his voice was like a flood of bells.

The voice of the person who came was vaguely familiar, although his face was full of camouflage, but the round-faced leopard eyes were very eye-catching, and if he looked closely, it was Yao Menglin, the commander of the first battalion of the original 75th Army Independent Regiment of the Expeditionary Force, nicknamed Yao Mengzi.

It is said that he is qualified to be the captain of this team, and the blocking battle in the Hukang River Valley was fought heroically at the beginning, and then he fought side by side with the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team in the Liangmiao River, and his qualifications and abilities are not to be said.

Dai Anlan returned the salute and said, "Fierce son, it is up to you whether the vole tactics of the main seat can succeed, and the burden on your body is not light." ”

"Don't worry, commander, all the soldiers of the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team promise not to disgrace the chief seat and you." Yao Menglin said with his chest straight.

Dai Anlan nodded and said, "Let's act, I'll be there later!" ”

"Yes, Commander!" Yao Menglin turned around and walked as he spoke, shook off his two arms, and strode towards the landing ship that had begun to whistle with steady steps.
