Chapter 214: Messerschmitt
Okamura Ninji used to be the commander of the 11th Army of Little Japan, with the rank of lieutenant general, and now even if he serves as the commander-in-chief of the Central China Front, his military rank has just been promoted to general, which is the same level as Hatohiko Asakanomiya.
Okamura Ninji is a typical "post-80s", born in 1884, and now Okamura Ninji is 54 years old, in the "prime of life", full of spirit and energy.
Okamura Ninji is an excellent soldier in the eyes of the Japanese, but in the eyes of the Chinese, he is the culprit of the invasion of China, the executioner.
Born in 1884 in Tokyo to a family of Samurai warriors who fell to the town of Sakamachi, Okamura Ninji graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School in 1904 and the Japanese Army University in 1913. In 1928, when he was the commander of the 6th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, he sent troops to Shandong, China. 3. "One of the main culprits of the Jinan tragedy."
In 1932, he served as the deputy chief of staff of the Japanese Shanghai Dispatch Army, and participated in the manufacture of "I. The 28th "Incident" led his troops to invade Shanghai and slaughtered the people of Shanghai.
In the spring of 1933, when the Kwantung Army invaded Rehe and the Great Wall and coerced Tianjin, he forced the Kuomintang authorities to sign the humiliating Tanggu Agreement on behalf of the Japanese side.
In later generations, when Okamura Ninji was the commander-in-chief of the North China Front Army of Little Japan, from 1941 to 1944, he frantically implemented the "three-light policy" of burning, killing, and robbing the light, and he was definitely not a kind person.
At the same time, Okamura Ninji has a tough background and is the second of the "Baden-Baden League" that created the Showa warlords.
In 1921, he went to Europe and the United States as a roving military attaché and visited Crown Prince Hirohito under the introduction of Minoru Higashiku. On October 27 of the same year, he signed the "Baden-Baden Covenant" with Nagata Tetsuyama and Toshiro Obata in Germany, vowing to defeat the Stalwart of the army such as Tanaka Yoshiichi, the elder of the Choshu lord. Supporting the crown prince to ascend the throne, this is the famous alliance of the three feathers in Japanese history.
This day is regarded by Japanese historians as the birth day of the Showa warlords, but in fact, there was a fourth person at the Baden-Baden party - Hideki Tojo. Although he later became Japan's wartime prime minister, in Baden-Baden he was only a minion lighting a cigarette for Nagata Tetsuyama and standing guard at the door of the steam room.
In addition to these four people in Baden-Baden, "Sanyu Wu" selected seven more talented colleagues who did not belong to the Choshu domain. These are Umezu Mijiro, the military attache in Berlin, the military attache in Berne, Yamashita Fumi, the military attache in Copenhagen, Kotaro Nakamura, the military attache in Paris, the military attache in Cologne, the military attache in Cologne, Matsui Ishone, and the military attache in Beijing, Ryosuke Isotani.
These 11 people are the core backbone of the Showa warlords that Japan relied on to launch the Second World War. In the highly disciplined Japanese military circles, these few people have so much energy for artificiality. Because in the shadow behind them is the Emperor Showa, who exists like a Japanese god.
It is not difficult to explain why Japan's series of so-called Shimokashang incidents have not been punished. When the "three blackbirds" are taken off from Baden-Baden, their spread black wings will envelop the entire land of East Asia.
In addition to being one of the "three feathered blacks". Okamura Ninji's military talent is just as good, and he can definitely be regarded as a famous general in Little Japan.
In later history, Okamura Ninji launched the Battle of Nanchang with the goal of capturing Nanchang. In the face of the 200,000 men of the 10 armies of the Luo Zhuoying group and the three wide rivers across the road of the march, he did not hesitate to disobey the will of the chief of the general staff, Prince Miyajihito of the palace. It is strongly advocated to use the 101st and 106th weak divisions that suffered defeats as the main force. In terms of specific tactics, he concentrated 250 heavy artillery pieces on a 3-kilometer-wide breakthrough and 130 tanks, and broke through alone as a vanguard under the cover of the air force, and as a result, he occupied Nanchang in seven days.
You must know that after half a year of Germany's blitzkrieg attack on Poland, he could be included in the list of famous Japanese generals just by making this plan and decision
****
Okamura Ningji on the Nanjing side took office and took over from the removed Matsui Ishine, and Ye Feng knew this matter clearly, and sent a secret telegram to Hatohiko of the Xiang Palace.
Everything in Nanjing. Ye Feng didn't have too much energy to pay attention to, and Ye Feng was very busy during this period of time. However, he was interested in the fact that after Matsui Ishine's dismissal, he would return to Japan by warship from Shanghai, and Ye Feng had already secretly telegraphed to Kamiya Hatohiko to pay attention to Matsui Ishine's return trip.
For Matsui Shigen, an old opponent, Ye Feng doesn't mind a good trip to Song. Except for one thing, Ye Feng mainly focused on the construction of the troops and the construction of various factories.
Xiaoshan Airport.
Ye Feng came to this airport again today, only a few days apart, the appearance of the airport has changed a little, and the whole project is progressing with each passing day.
In addition to the large number of laborers, the help of a large number of ordinary people, and the abundant reinforced concrete, the more important thing is the guidance of various professionals that Ye Feng exchanged from the "Nuwa" system.
Under the guidance of professionals, Xiaoshan Airport will definitely change with each passing day.
Ye Feng's off-road vehicle was parked on the huge tarmac, accompanied by some special combat team members, guards, and Zhao Long, the leader of the sword special combat team.
Liang Xiaolong, the person in charge of the construction of Xiaoshan Airport, accompanied Ye Feng and his party to introduce the construction progress in detail, Ye Feng also spent more than an hour and carefully looked at the construction of the airport, however, Ye Feng came this time, not to check the progress of the project, but to exchange for the plane.
Several ancillary hangars at the airport have been built, and Ye Feng is ready to exchange them for planes inside, and in order to keep it secret, he also brought special combat team members.
The main body of the airport is nearing completion, and a small part of the aircraft can be exchanged first, so after inspecting the construction of the airport again, Ye Feng entered one of the hangars and imposed martial law.
There were a lot of guards and special combat team members standing outside the hangar, no one was allowed to enter the hangar, Ye Feng entered the hangar, and only brought Zhao Long and Liang Xiaolong, both of whom were system people, Ye Feng naturally didn't need to avoid it.
Enter the wide hangar, it is empty, such a large hangar, even if large fighter jets or transport planes are parked in it, it is okay, and the maintenance of some aircraft can also be carried out in it.
After thinking for a long time, Ye Feng already had a choice of what to exchange for what aircraft from the system, and considering the economy and practicality, Ye Feng chose to exchange two kinds of active aircraft.
The P51 Mustang was perhaps the most famous fighter of World War II, or rather: the best piston propeller fighter, but it was only early December 1938, and the Mustang would not be available until next year.
At this time, it is naturally possible for Ye Feng to exchange the wild horse in advance, but the price is slightly expensive, but Ye Feng thinks that it is not necessary for the time being, Ye Feng chooses to exchange it for Messerschmitt, as for the wild horse, that is something to consider later.
In the 30s, the Hitler regime began to vigorously expand its air force in order to realize its aggressive expansion plan. In 1934, the Luftwaffe issued a tender for the development of a new generation fighter to replace the He51 biplane.
The Be109 single-engine, single-seat, single-wing, all-metal piston fighter designed by Messerschmitt, chief designer of the Bavarian Aircraft Plant, became the main fighter of the Nazi Air Force in the next decade after defeating the He112, Ar80 and Fw159 models one by one in competitive flight tests.
Thus, "Messerschmitt" became almost synonymous with the Luftwaffe during the Great War. In July 1938, the Bavarian Aircraft Factory was renamed the Messerschmitt Aircraft Factory, so the Bf109 was the first German military aircraft to enter practical use with a single wing under a cantilever and a retractable landing gear.
In terms of appearance, more straight lines were used, and in terms of structure, it reasonably selected high-strength thin aluminum plates and precision die-castings, reflecting the advanced level of German industrial technology at that time. The wing load of the aircraft is up to 170 kg / square meter, the aspect ratio is 6.065, the vertical tail is semicircular, the flat tail is rectangular, and some modifications are also equipped with lower diagonal struts.
In order to ensure a large level flight angle of attack, a pair of long pillars of the main landing gear (front main wheel) are specially installed at the wing roots, but the disadvantage of too narrow transverse distance is caused, and the aircraft is easy to tip over when taking off and landing on the field runway. The firing weapon is mounted on the upper part of the nose and the leading edge of the wing, and is generally equipped with two guns and two guns. The BF109 is powered by a DB601 (or DB605) engine with water-cooled in-line cylinders with low frontal drag, with a cone-shaped hubhousing and three-bladed propeller in the nose.
In addition to the V-type prototype, more than a dozen modifications of Bf109 have been developed from A to S, including nearly 100 sub-modifications. In the past 23 years, a total of 33,000 aircraft have been produced in Germany, Spain and the Czech Republic, of which 30,480 are produced in Germany. This situation is extremely rare in the production record of a single model in the history of aviation in the world.
The subordinate units are American-style weapons, and the planes are German-style, and there will definitely be differences in the supply of ammunition and ammunition, but the Air Force will be in its own series, and the differences in weapons and ammunition will hardly have much to do with it.
The fighter chose the Bf109 Messerschmitt fighter, and Ye Feng also considered the choice of the bomber.
In the early stage, the 1st Air Force Division will be based at Xiaoshan Airport and will be mainly equipped with two types of aircraft, one is fighter planes and the other is bombers, and in the future, it may also be equipped with a certain number of transport planes.
Of course, after the construction of Xiaoshan Airport is completed, an early warning radar station will be established and anti-aircraft fire will also be deployed, but these are all later work.
Now that the airport has not been completely completed, Ye Feng is ready to exchange a small number of fighters and bombers for the training of the First Air Division, and after the airport is completed, Ye Feng will definitely gradually equip the First Air Division with a large number of aircraft.
