At this time, it was already half past five in the morning, and although the sky was not bright, the airport was illuminated by more than a dozen electric lights in the arsenal, and the Japanese army's handymen were busy loading bombs into cars.

Zhang Cheng's sudden attack last night caused the Japanese troops of the entire 11 th Army to begin preparations for war, and the four reconnaissance planes had already gone to the sky when the sky was still dark, rushing to various fronts to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, especially the Hangzhou airport, which lost contact at 3 o'clock in the morning, and the commander of the 10 th Army, Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji, was anxious to know what was going on.

At dawn, the Japanese troops at the arsenal on the outskirts of Suzhou finally loaded all their vehicles and prepared to set off. Suddenly, the roar of machines was heard in the sky, and experienced Japanese soldiers knew as soon as they heard it that this was a group of aircraft, and not a few aircraft. The Japanese troops on the ground of the airfield began to look up one after another, looking in the direction where the sound came from.

I saw that in the morning light in the southern sky, dozens of black dots not much bigger than birds appeared and disappeared in the clouds. The Japanese troops at the airport were suddenly puzzled.

The Japanese did not expect that this was no longer their plane, the Chinese Air Force had already suffered casualties, and it was impossible to organize such a powerful air force, and although the distance was remote, it could be seen from the appearance and outline of the aircraft that it was a Japanese plane flying undoubtedly, so they did not think of defending at all, and even a few anti-aircraft machine guns on the pillboxes were not put on guard, only the commander of the Japanese arsenal hurriedly ordered the signal corps to ask the military headquarters for verification.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of planes were completely presented in the field of vision of the Japanese army in the arsenal, the sun flag on the wings and fuselage was clearly visible, and the Japanese army began to shout, "Look, the escort is the Zero fighter, the Zero fighter of the Great Japanese Empire!" ”

The cheers of the Japanese army were everywhere, and the planes in the air rumbled over the arsenal, and without exception began to drop bombs, countless light and heavy bombs fell with screaming raindrops, and in the explosion of shaking the ground, the entire arsenal instantly turned into a sea of fire, and all the cars that had just been neatly arranged were swallowed up by the fire.

Nanjing, the headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army.

Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji stayed awake all night last night, and was able to take a nap at dawn, and he was still sitting in the office chair of the headquarters.

Opening his bloodshot eyes in horror, Okamura Ninji ejected from his chair and exclaimed, "What, what happened?" ”

A staff officer stepped forward and said: "Your Excellency the general, just now the Suzhou Arsenal asked the military department for verification, and the imperial army's aircraft group was found in the sky, and asked the military department if there were any planes flying over Suzhou, and the chief of staff has gone over to deal with it, and it is estimated that there will be news soon." ”

Okamura Ninji suddenly felt dizzy and weak, no matter how the imperial army's plane was, it was impossible to do it without permission, and something that he didn't know was definitely wrong.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, Chief of Staff Kang Tianfu walked in quickly, the heavy expression on his face was better than that of his dead father, and he stammered: "Your Excellency, the Imperial Army's Suzhou Arsenal has just been completely destroyed, and more than 20 cars and arsenals that have just been filled with mustard gas bombs have all been blown up. ”

"Yaga, Yaga! Why is this happening, why is this happening? Okamura Ninji flew in the air with his hands clenched into fists, and his face was badly distorted and deformed, making him look very hideous and terrifying.

The staff officers and generals in the room suddenly lowered their heads, looking sincerely frightened, and after swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva, Kang Tianfu also replied in a curtled manner: "Just before the explosion, Shunto Keisuke in Hangzhou sent a call, they had just been attacked by an air raid, and it was the plane of the Imperial Army Hangzhou Airport that attacked them, and the plane of Hangzhou Airport had fallen into the hands of Zhang Cheng, and it was not difficult to see that Zhang Cheng immediately organized them to bomb the Suzhou Arsenal of the Imperial Army, and our chemical arsenal was finished. ”

Okamura Ninji fell heavily on the chair, his face was dripping with cold sweat, and even his lips twitched slightly. He was well aware of the position of the Suzhou Arsenal in the imperial army.

The most deadly thing is that dozens of planes fell into the hands of Zhang Cheng, among which there are ten Zero fighters, and the loss of other types of aircraft can bear it alone, but the Zero fighter is unforgivable, this is the latest cutting-edge weapon developed by the Imperial Army, it is the sexual weapon of the Great Japanese Empire to conquer the world, and it is also the capital

Other countries will definitely target the weakness of the Zero and quickly develop a new type of fighter, and the advantages of the Zero will be gone.

After a long time, Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji opened his eyes like a dead fish, looked at Yasuda and muttered: "Report to General Shunroku Katahata and ask him to immediately provide air support to the Eleventh Army, and at the same time ask him to remove my command, I am willing to take all responsibility for this matter, and ask the military court to give me the most severe trial." ”

Okamura Ningji knew very well that the planes at Hangzhou Airport had been successfully driven away by Zhang Cheng, and it was only a matter of time before Hangzhou was lost, and it was a big joke to pity that the battle line he had carefully arranged was so vulnerable in front of him. The process is no longer so important, the important thing is that once Hangzhou is lost, it is no longer a dangerous situation in Hangzhou, but the offensive plan of the entire 10th Army has completely collapsed, if the troops of the 3rd and 9th theaters of the government army of China take the opportunity to attack Nanjing and Shanghai, Nanjing and Shanghai are in danger, although the Nationalist Government has already had the idea of counterattacking Nanjing several times, and even dispatched a large number of troops, but each time it has suffered countless losses and returned in vain.

However, this time, Zhang Cheng with one or two thousand people actually turned the entire defense line upside down, and there were dangers everywhere, the Eleventh Army, which originally had seven divisions and hundreds of thousands of troops, the Sixth Division and the Fourth Division were blocked along the Yangtze River, and the Ninth Division and the Eighteenth Division were beaten by Zhang Cheng so that they could not take care of each other, and the other divisions and regiments attacked the Dabie Mountain defense line, and the area was already wide enough, so they naturally could not spare their hands to support.

At this moment, the situation took a turn for the worse, and Okamura still couldn't figure out why the battle situation had evolved like this.

Hangzhou.

After dozens of fighter-bombers fired at the remnants of the Japanese army in Hangzhou, the psychological defense line of the Japanese army began to collapse, its combat effectiveness plummeted, and it was defeated and retreated by the special combat team, while the puppet army simply raised and surrendered. All the planes fell into Zhang Cheng's hands, where else in Hangzhou could the troops resist Zhang Cheng's attack?

At the headquarters of the 103rd Brigade of the Japanese Army in Hangzhou, the brigade commander Keisuke Toshito had already burned incense and bathed, kneeling in front of the portrait of the emperor on the wall, exposing his upper body, holding a delicate command knife in his left hand and a snow-white towel in his right hand to repeatedly wipe the already shiny blade.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the streets of Hangzhou were messy.

Wars often bring death and destruction, and the result is the same whether it is evil or good.

Hangzhou, which has just regained its prosperity, has been baptized by war last night, and there is a scene of broken walls and ruins everywhere, although the beacon fire has been extinguished, but the remaining smoke is still drifting around, and the air exudes a thick smell of gunsmoke. {Melon seeds.*?small.*?said that the net hand hit the update faster]
