159 bombing Hokkaido

At night, hundreds of people crossed the Heilongjiang River, entered the territory of China, and buried Tian Yu on a deserted hill, here, is the motherland, no matter when, Tian Yu said, she ran out secretly, and the family did not know where to be lost, but she always wanted to return to the Northeast.

Looking at the tombstone with the tomb of his beloved wife Tian Yu, the words of husband Li Moran, Ma Yilong and Bian Haiming nodded, at least, so that they would not be disturbed for the time being.

On the return trip, Kane was silent, and Bian Haiming asked softly, "Do you want to notify the American side?" This return voyage can be very risky! ”

Kane said, "It's not possible, but there must be, notify the past, right?" It's going to be big this time! ”

The return fleet was divided into two shifts, and Kane had a U.S. Navy cruiser USS Wilmington, two destroyers, and eight frigates escort a dozen empty transports to set off first. Because he knew that if the Japanese wanted to go out, they would definitely be staring at themselves and the aircraft carrier formation.

However, air protection is still needed, and the long-range Mustang that takes off from both ends follows all the way to prevent the devils from bombing with aircraft.

Sure enough, the Japanese water reconnaissance planes did not make any move when they saw the empty ships returning home, and they knew that it was a thankless task to bomb these empty transport ships with their precious planes, and even the US transport fleet was not very willing to move them at present.

Anyway, these arms are used against the Germans, but Japan now has the idea that the dead friends will not die and the poor will teach them how to behave in a minute if they really provoke the polar bears.

Kane waited for another two days, until Li Jian sent a telegram that all the troops had enough fuel and ammunition and had arrived at the designated sea area, and then he commanded the large army to set off.

The two aircraft carriers, the Sun-Destroying and the Captured, each have seventy-two Seagull carrier-based aircraft on them, and there are twelve in each hangar.

Four large Fletcher-class destroyers Razor, Scythe, Chopper, Axe, one cruiser, USS Dayton, two Cannon-class destroyers: USS Hart and USS Porter.

An escort aircraft carrier, the White Swan, is equipped with 20 anti-submarine helicopters, 5 search and rescue helicopters, 5 transport planes and 5 armed helicopters. Now all carrier-based helicopters are on the White Swan, which is also to let the command of the ships be unimpeded.

On the route ahead, the Shark, Swordfish, Swordfish, and Blackfish were all waiting for orders. That's all Kane's current naval power.

And on Kiska Island, there are 42 wild asses, 48 Liberators, and eighteen Super Flying Fortress B29 bombers.

There are 48 B17E heavy bombers on the island of Holland, this guy has been constantly improved, and now he can fly 5400 kilometers with 12 bombs of 227 kg, and the maximum speed has also been increased to 512 kilometers.

In order to cooperate with this operation, the US military also sent the offshore light aircraft carrier USS Independence, and Kane equipped it with 28 dreadnought dive bombers that had been released by the US military, and 12 Seagull fighters.

The aircraft carrier formation USS Independence was escorted by a light cruiser, four destroyers, and the commander was named Blake Wynne, and the small fleet had already set off the day before.

Recently, the Japanese army saw that the general trend had gone, and built seven or eight airfields of various sizes in Hokkaido, and four or five hundred planes were released.

On the night of the departure of the Kane fleet, the land-based aircraft group of the Aleutian Islands moved, and this time they dispatched all 18 B29 bombers and 48 B17 bombers all the way to Hokkaido, which is more than 2,200 kilometers away.

The fleet went north along the coast of the Soviet Union, and this route, although a bit of a detour, was always the safest, and they would go north along the Dadan Sea, bypassing Cape Eliza and then eastward, passing through the northernmost point of the Kuril Islands to Kiska Island, and as for the windy and rough Strait of Hormon, Kane did not want to go, the temperature was too low, and it often froze.

But today, when the fleet reached the Grand Mark, Kane, who had not spoken, suddenly shouted to Bian Hai, "To the east!" ”

"Are you crazy?" Bian Haiming jumped up in shock, "Brother, this is a boat, not an airplane, the Soya Strait between Sakhalin Island and Hokkaido is only forty kilometers wide, and other planes can arrive at any time!" ”

"I'm not crazy!" Kane pointed to the charts and said, "If I'm not mistaken, at least twenty submarines are waiting for us in the narrowest part of the north side of the Dardan, here, near Lazarev, and in the strait, there will be the Yamato, and he is ready to block our way with submarines."

The hand swiped forward again, "The Yamato attacks from behind, a typical plan to catch turtles in an urn!" ”

Bian Haiming looked at it, and it really made people's scalp tingle, "Why didn't they come here before?" "The Yamato was fighting in the south a while ago, and he was wounded, and according to my estimate, he is now fighting with wounds."

"And how did you know about the plans of the Japanese?"

"I guessed"

"Guess? How do you even guess such a big thing? ”

Kane said calmly, "Yes, I just want to die and come back to life, the Yamato will not come to pull it down, as long as it chases it, the Soya Strait is its burial place!" He slammed his fist on the countertop, causing the drawing pen on it to jump to its feet.

At dawn, at the gate of Sapporo Chitose Airport, the soldiers of the 7th Division got up early to prepare for the morning exercise, and suddenly, there was a faint roar in the sky.

At first, they didn't care, because the air defense sirens in the airport did not sound, and they must have been their own planes to fly so close.

It was a little overcast in the sky, and I couldn't see it above, and the soldiers didn't care. However, there was chaos in the airport, the planes were all over the sky this day, the radio could not be sent out, and there was no response on the radar, what was going on?

The roar has passed, and the airport is lively, and more than a dozen planes are pulled onto the runway, which are ready to take off and go out to see. Suddenly, the pilots all stopped, it was snowing, the sky was full of snowflakes, and it seemed that they could not fly.

But when the snowflakes arrived in front of them, they found that it was platinum bars, and it was their hesitation that wasted the opportunity to escape, and once again a roar came, and a string of huge bombs was thrown down at an altitude of three thousand meters.

This is a dozen or so B29 bombers following behind the electronic warfare aircraft and jammers, because of the range, they only brought five tons of cargo, and each of the five in front of them threw bombs, and then climbed high and went home, completely ignoring the devils below who were desperately shouting!

Five bombs weighing one ton each suddenly exploded at an altitude of 500 meters, each divided into 50 bullets weighing 20 kilograms each, and exploded one by one at the place where they hit, and suddenly, the entire airport burned like a mountain of flames, and the viscous fuel weighing more than 10 kilograms illuminated the dawn of the airport!

Whether it is aircraft, anti-aircraft artillery, air defense troops, pilots, mechanics, all of them are rushing in the flames, and no one can care about the dozen or so B17 heavy bombers that come one after another!

The depressed Flying Fortress dropped a large number of bombs weighing 227 kilograms at an altitude of 1,000 meters.

More than 200 bombs exploded one by one at Chitose Airport, and when they landed on the runway, they were deep holes several meters in diameter, and all of them that smashed into the oil depot, tower, and locomotive exploded, and only the ammunition depot went deep into the ground, and there was no explosion for a while, but looking at it this way, the Chitose Airport could not operate for a week.

As for the large bombers and transport planes lined up on the side of the runway, they all caught fire without exception.

The same situation also happened at the two large airports of Hakodate and Asahikawa, and as for the other small airports, only a few B17s went to blow up the runway and other facilities, but because of the anti-artillery, they were all bombed at a level of more than 4,000 meters, and the effect was far less good than that of these three large airports.

With this unreasonable bombing, 70 or 80 percent of the planes in Hokkaido were no longer able to take off. Of course, the more than 200 that were burned and blown up do not count.
