Chapter 1637 has its own mission

Attacking Bangkok were five fighter squadrons of the 2nd Air Regiment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was not early, and it would be dark in two or three hours at most, so this wave of air raids deep into the capital of Siam had more deterrent implications, and I did not think of any brilliant results, but because the fighters of the Siam Air Force attacking the Chinese region had just returned, it was a timely meeting, which completely sounded the death knell for the Siam Air Force.

Feng Muhua, commander of the 2nd Air Regiment, commanded the operation, and outside the field of vision, he knew the location of the enemy planes through the high-altitude airship radar feedback on the electronic display screen, and immediately commanded the aircraft group to raise the altitude.

When entering the sky above Bangkok's Thonburi Airport, Feng Muhua yelled into the microphone: "Brothers, kill those hateful Siamese monkeys, rush!" ”

Feng Muhua finished roaring, pushed the accelerator, and took the lead in rushing towards the Siamese group, and behind him were eighty-two A26 and A27 fighters closely following, swooping down like an eagle catching a chicken.

It was only at this time that the Siamese air defense sirens sounded violently, the anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground followed suit, and the Siamese aircraft group that was landing panicked and hurriedly evaded, and those fighters and bombers that still had bombs barely climbed in a "U" shape to meet the fighters of the An Jiajun.

I saw that at an altitude of two or three thousand meters, the A26 and A27 fighters of the Anjia Air Force were suddenly inserted into the messy formation of the Siam Air Force, and all the A26 and A27 ignored the chaotic anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground and the barrage of bullets fired from the nose aviation machine guns of the "Curtis" Hawker III destroyers, Nakajima 97 fighters, and Mitsubishi 97 bombers.

Feng Muhua, who rushed to the front of the group, did not press the cannon firing button until he was 200 meters away from the nearest Hawker III destroyer, which could basically be said to be shooting head-to-head, directly turning the cockpit of the biplane fighter in front into a sieve. Hawk III, who was shot, immediately staggered and flew in the air like a drunk, and then planted straight to the ground, making a loud explosion.

The wingman who followed closely behind Feng Muhua stared at a similar aircraft next to this Hawker III destroyer, he did not attack head-on, but turned slightly to the right, and fired a salvo of 12.7 caliber aviation machine guns on both wings of the right wing of the Hawker fighter that was hurriedly evading, leaving one or twenty large and small holes on the right fuselage and right wing of this Hawker III.

Hawk III, which was directly hit by the wingman's dense machine gun fire, completely destroyed the two-layer wing load-bearing structure, and the two-layer wings broke off in an instant, and began to twist and fall to the ground at a rapid speed, causing a violent explosion again.

Almost instantly, the A26 and A27 fleets had already crossed the first wave of fighters that the Siamese were attacking, and because of the excellent climbing performance of the Hawker III, they rushed to the front, and naturally became the first victims, all the biplanes were hit, either volleying and exploding, or dragging a long smoke in the air, falling to the ground and exploding, and floating a little umbrella shadow in the air. In the first round of the battle, the Hawker was strangely wiped out, and the An Jiajun fighters were not killed or injured.

The Siamese fighters, which were closely behind the Hawker III, had just arrived at this time and immediately fell into a scuffle.

Feng Muhua turned his head to take a look, raised the nose of the plane, and turned sharply to the right, and on its right side were two Mitsubishi 97 bombers using the 7.92 caliber machine guns of the turret, firing fiercely at him, Feng Muhua had already felt the sound of bullets hitting the shell of the plane. Fortunately, A26's famous skin is firm and thick, which did not cause too much trouble to Feng Muhua.

In the blink of an eye, the warplanes were whizzing and staggering past each other.

Turning around quickly, he saw that the two Mitsubishi bombers also made a sharp turn, at this time Feng Muhua decisively chose to climb at a large angle, and then a 360-degree loop quickly circled behind the two Mitsubishi bombers. Because the Mitsubishi bomber was too bulky and difficult to make evasive actions in the turn, Feng Muhua smiled confidently, the cannon and the aviation machine gun fired in unison, and between the lightning and flint, one of the Mitsubishi fighters exploded in volley, and the other fighter plane was also attacked by Feng Muhua's wingman, whimpering and dragging the smoke to the ground.

Feng Muhua flew side by side with the wingman, and gave the wingman pilot a thumbs up, indicating that he was doing a good job. Seeing the regimental commander personally praise, the wingman pilot grinned.

Feng Muhua turned his head and saw an A27 in the lower left chasing a B-10 bomber, and behind its butt, a Nakajima 97 fighter was closely followed. Feng Muhua compared downward, let the wingman follow, and then pressed the nose of the plane and rushed straight towards the Nakajima 97 fighter.

The Nakajima 97 fighter plane fired fiercely at the A27 in front, but it failed to hit the target several times in succession. You must know that the A27 is developed in comparison with the Hayabusa fighter, which is small and flexible, with excellent fighting ability, and can always dodge bullets when it is urgent, which makes the pilot who pilots Nakajima Jiuqi depressed!

Feng Muhua quietly approached the other party, pressed the aviation machine gun firing button at Nakajima Jiuqi's buttocks, and the 12.7 caliber aviation machine guns on both wings shot waterfall-like bullets, directly hitting Nakajima Jiuqi's cockpit. Nakajima Jiuqi's fuselage was slightly restrained, and he paused in the air, Feng Muhua pushed the joystick and rose rapidly, which was able to avoid a rear-end collision with Nakajima Jiuqi.

At this time, the Nakajima nine-seven had completely lost its balance, constantly hovering in the air, just now, the pilot who was piloting it had been shattered by the aviation machine gun bullets fired from behind, and the body that had lost his head and limbs and hands on the neck had lost his head, limbs, and hands had fallen to the instrument in front of him, and Nakajima nine-seven quickly lost control and fell straight to the ground.

Feng Muhua raised the height again and checked the battle situation.

Within a quarter of an hour of the engagement, the remaining fighters in the Siamese group were almost completely looted, and the remaining dozen or so planes, under the cover of ground anti-aircraft fire, desperately landed on the runway of the airport below, trying to quickly add ammunition and return to the blue sky to fight.

The air raid sirens in Bangkok City were constantly hissing, and the sound of "bang-bang-bang" anti-aircraft artillery firing was endless.

Most of Siam's anti-aircraft guns were purchased from Japan, and the entire city of Bangkok was equipped with 68 75mm anti-aircraft guns of the Taisho 11th year, 42 75mm anti-aircraft guns of the 88th type, plus a number of anti-aircraft machine guns.

However, the entire urban area of Bangkok is as high as more than 200 square kilometers. You must know that 80 percent of Siam's factories and large storage centers are concentrated in the surrounding areas of Bangkok, and to defend such a huge area, these more than 100 anti-aircraft guns are obviously not enough.

In addition, the Taisho 11-year and 88-type anti-aircraft guns were developed in the 20s, and the aircraft at that time had a flight speed of more than 200 kilometers at the earliest, and the performance of these two types of anti-aircraft guns against the aircraft of this period was quite good, but after entering the thirties, the aircraft technology developed rapidly, and the engines were upgraded almost every year or two, and the fighters with a sharp doubling of speed were used to deal with them.

As a result, there was an extremely ridiculous scene in the entire city of Bangkok, where artillery was fired, but there were very few that could effectively threaten the fighters of the An Jia Army.

Feng Muhua saw an anti-aircraft shell explode more than 100 meters below, and immediately said into the microphone: "The enemy's air resistance force is basically eliminated, from now on, act as a squadron: the first squadron will keep an eye on the airfield, and when the enemy planes are replenished with ammunition, they will immediately use rockets to attack the ground; The 2nd and 3rd Squadrons went to the Chinese area to suppress the Siamese troops attacking at the intersection of the north and south flanks respectively, and cheered up the comrades who held on; The 4th Squadron is in charge of the Grand Palace, and the 5th Squadron goes to the Vimanik Palace, paying attention to the ground anti-aircraft fire, and destroying these two militarist strongholds with rockets! ”

"Yes!"

The squadron leaders replied one after another and quickly dispersed.

......

The Japanese Embassy in Bangkok is located in the northern neighborhood of Lumpinee Park in the east of the city, an area of two square kilometers, which is also a Japanese diaspora area, and since the thirties, more than 10,000 Japanese expatriates have gathered here, and the neighborhood is separated by several streets from the embassy districts of other countries.

After the Siamese military government came to power, it was determined to learn from the aggressive Japan, alienated itself from the "cowardly" Chinese government, and strengthened cooperation with Japan, and Siam's defense appropriations were almost all used for arms purchases from Japan, and at the same time, the two countries also had very close ties in the political and economic fields; Japan purchased Siamese tin, raw cotton, cotton cloth and shirts, sold "Datsan" cars (the predecessor of the "Nissan" sedan) and bicycles, as well as cameras, radios, cement, paper and raw silk to Siam, and invested in the construction of tin factories and sugar mills. In the process, Japan had a huge industry in Siam, and there were frequent industrial and commercial exchanges, so in a short period of time, it had tens of thousands of expatriates.

Due to the consistent pro-Japanese propaganda of the Siamese military government, and at the same time, the Siamese military government sent special troops to guard the overseas Chinese area, and the Japanese overseas Chinese area was not impacted.

In the Japanese Embassy in the Japanese architectural style, the Japanese ambassador to Bangkok, Sadaji Tsubogami, listened to the annoying sound of air raid sirens and the sound of shelling one after another, and summoned Army Attache Suzuki Shuchi, Navy Attache Ryo Yamada, Counselor Tetsuto Sato, and Secretary Takahashi Ya for secret discussions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the information obtained from the Siamese military, the Siamese army has suffered a very heavy blow this time, the navy and air force are almost gone, the rout of the army is inevitable, Nanhua is stronger than we thought, and our plan to use the Siamese to hold back the An Jia army has faced failure from the beginning. What is particularly surprising is the South China Navy, which has a large number of capital ships, which are much more powerful than the First Fleet we have deployed in the Lan Yin Islands, and we must carefully consider our relationship with South China! ”

Ambassador Sadaji Tsubakami said worriedly.

"Then how do we reply to the Siamese military? Deputy Minister of the Siam Army. Maidi, Secretary of the Navy Tanlong. Navasavat, Air Force Minister Papbassak, Bangkok Military Region Commander Seli. Longeri called one after another, asking us to send an air force and a naval fleet to Siam to deter the army, navy, and air force in South China and ensure the security of Siam's airspace, territory, and territorial waters. I guess it's Phibun. Song Kan is testing us, what attitude should we take to face it? Counselor Tetsuto Sato asked eagerly.

"Let the Great Japanese Empire send troops? Judging from the current situation, it is not easy! ”

Navy attache Ryo Yamada pointed to the sky: "Listen to this heart-wrenching siren? In just half a day, the Siam Air Force lost the capital accumulated for five years, and the losses they caused to the South China Air Force were almost negligible. Since 33 years, the Siamese junta has spent 80 percent of its GDP on defense spending, armed by land, sea and air, but what is happening now? The Siamese lost valuable supremacy of the sea and air, especially the loss of air supremacy, so that the battle on land and sea would be extremely difficult!

"The Empire's warplanes are currently concentrated in the Far East and Siberia, and it is extremely difficult to move south, so should we let our naval ships fight with the superior air force of South China? Moreover, according to the Siamese, the opposing side has five battleships and a large number of cruisers, and our First Fleet does not have the strength to compete with them, unless the combined fleet is dispatched! However, if the Combined Fleet is transferred to Lanyin, it will inevitably cause consternation in Britain and the United States, and delay the conduct of the European war, which will be detrimental to the overall strategy of our empire, so we should resolutely reject them! ”

"But the Siamese are our allies, and should we sit idly by and watch our allies fail?"

Army attache Suzuki Huchi stood up and said impassionedly: "The relationship between us and the An Jia Army was originally a war, and at present, we are in an all-out confrontation in Siberia and North China, even if we send reinforcements to Siam, why not?" Besides, Bangkok is in chaos right now, and mobs are everywhere. Did you hear the fierce gunfire in the embassy district of the Europeans and Americans in the north two hours ago? I am afraid that the mob has ransacked the European and American embassies, and if we overprovoke the Siamese authorities, I am afraid that the Siamese will withdraw their troops guarding the overseas Chinese area, so that their mob will storm our overseas Chinese area and wreak havoc, and then things will be difficult to do! ”

"Baga!"

Ryo Yamada, the naval attache who looked at each other unpleasantly, reprimanded loudly: "Suzuki-kun, how can you show weakness in front of these uncivilized people in Siam? How can a country that has changed from extreme inferiority to extreme self-esteem have a negligible combat effectiveness of its military, and such a country can only be used, so how can it be treated as an ally? I firmly believe that even the volunteers in the overseas Chinese area can completely protect us, not to mention our marines to organize? At the beginning of the riots in Bangkok, our navy was fully prepared, and now more than 2,000 volunteers have joined, and the monkeys cannot rush in. ”

"What if they use the army? Just like now they are attacking the Chinese zone! Suzuki asked with his head held up and disdainfully.

"The combat power of those monkey soldiers is a joke at all, and I just had a meeting with the commander of the Bangkok Military Region, Seli. Longley spoke by phone, and the former Jockey Club chairman said that they had used two divisions to attack the Chinese area, and that there was also an air force to fight, but they had not even attacked a small street intersection, and asked us to send someone for tactical guidance. These Siamese people are not civilized at all, do not understand the mysteries of the art of war, and do not even know the minimum strategy of dividing the troops and attacking together, so if it were me, I will be killed by the flank of the Chinese region and use the tactics of layer by layer of explosions...... "Yamada Ryoshi is still full of contempt for the Siamese.

The embassy secretary, Yaya Takahashi, explained, "Yamada-kun, I'm afraid you don't know much about the situation in Hanaka...... Three years ago, the Siamese military government built a quarantine zone to confine Chinese to more than 10 square kilometers near the Golden Buddha Temple. The Chinese fought for tat and built an antique city wall along the eastern barrier, on which a large number of hidden forts were arranged. To the west of Hua District is Bangkok's main river, the Chao Phraya River, known to the Chinese as the Arun River, which is several kilometers wide at its widest point, and the Chinese have built many river forts along the riverbank, which can be regarded as a natural danger. In this way, the defense of the Jiekou area on the north and south flanks is the weakest. Therefore, it is very difficult for our Japanese overseas Chinese to achieve the defensive effect of the Chinese area, and if the Siamese army really wants to attack us, we can adopt the method of Yamada-kun, adopt the tactics of blasting, and demolish one house after another to approach our hinterland block, and we will fail because of the lack of troops! ”

Ryo Yamada is a naval attache who only arrived at the beginning of this year, and he usually despises the Chinese, and has not been to the Chinese area to observe in detail.

"Bang!"

A loud explosion was heard in the distance, apparently something had been detonated.

Ambassador Tsubakami Sadaji hurriedly stood up, walked to the Japanese-style corridor, looked from afar, and saw the northwest sky blazing, Tsubakami Sadaji groaned slightly in his heart, and deduced that it was the Siamese Thonburi military airport that had an accident.

Sajiji Tsubakami returned to the room, sat down on the tatami mat, and commanded loudly:

"Suzuki-kun, you are responsible for communicating with the Siamese military, saying that we will carefully consider their suggestions and mobilize the Imperial Japanese Navy and Air Force to move westward to deter South China. Anyway, dispatching troops is not something that can be done in a day or two, so let's drag it out for a while and see how the situation develops. ”

"Hi-yi-"

Suzuki stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Yamada-kun!"

Sajiji Tsubakami saw Ryo Yamada stand up and instructed, "You organize the marines stationed in Bangkok to train and arm the expatriate, and we must make preparations with both hands to ensure our own safety." ”

"Hi-yi-"

Ryo Yamada bent down in greeting.

"Sato-kun!"

Tsubakami Sadaji continued to command: "You are responsible for communicating more with the Siamese military government officials, keeping abreast of their thoughts, and ensuring the interests of the empire!" ”

"Hi-yi-"

Counselor Tetsuto Sato respectfully received the order.

Tsubakami Sadaji finally said: "Takahashi-kun and I are responsible for summarizing the situation in Siam and sending it to the country, and it will be decided by the kings of the base camp!" Let's adjourn! ”

......

The marble Buddhist temple on the side of the Shindarada Palace in the north of Bangkok.

This area is home to the Parliament Building, the Bangkok Zoo and the park, and is part of Bangkok's suburban area. The Marble Buddha Temple began to be built during the reign of Emperor Rama V of Siam, and although its reputation is not as loud as the Temple of the Jade Buddha, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha and the Temple of the Golden Buddha, it has a unique position in the minds of the Chinese, because this temple, like the Temple of the Golden Buddha, was also built by the Chinese community to raise funds, and the entire construction was completed by the Chinese Foundation.

Under the marble Buddhist temple, in a cobweb-like labyrinth, more than a dozen search and rescue teams from the Hung Xing Society responsible for the eastern and northern districts of Bangkok gathered here, and they rescued nearly 1,000 Chinese and Caucasians.

At the beginning of the underground entrance, all the rescued people were nervous and did not show anything unusual, but as the sound of air raid sirens, anti-aircraft artillery fire and explosions sounded outside, many people's nerves relaxed, and the men and women who had lost their loved ones began to cry with their heads in their arms.

Zhang Han was the leader of one of the search and rescue teams, and they were responsible for the rescue work in the European and American embassy district in the east of the city. As early as the infiltration of the Hongxing Society into Bangkok, he took advantage of the opportunity of the embassies to recruit drivers, florists, cleaners, cooks, and other miscellaneous laborers, and constantly sent people to infiltrate them, and more than 50 people were mixed in the entire embassy area.

A week before the start of the war between Siam and South China, Zhang Han received instructions from his superiors to guard against the rising national sentiment in Bangkok after the start of the war, which stormed the embassy district and caused heavy casualties, and he could choose to retreat if necessary. Zhang Han was unwilling to give up easily, so he quietly imported guns and ammunition to the embassy area, and as a self-protection, he also installed some photographic equipment in a hidden place to obtain first-hand information about the evil deeds of the Siamese.

But no one expected that the Siamese military government not only allowed the mob to storm the embassy area, but even sent troops to directly participate in the attack, which caught Zhang Han off guard, and in desperation, he had to rescue the women and children of the embassies with unobvious targets, and evacuate through the hidden underground passages before the embassies were breached one by one.

The entire search and rescue team rescued the wives and children of the ambassadors of the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Portugal and other countries, all of which are now hidden under the marble temple.

Zhang Han heard a burst of "huh" crying, looked back, and found that it was Ruth, the wife of the British ambassador Brooke. Zhang Han has been a driver for Brooke for two years, and he is very familiar with his family, and now that Brooke is dead, a trace of sadness rises in his heart, and he immediately stepped forward to comfort:

"Madame, please mourn! It has happened, there is no use in crying, we should think about how to avenge Mr. Ambassador! ”

Mrs. Ruth is thirty-four or five years old, pretty, she is still crying when she is holding her teenage daughter, but the expression on her face is very strong: "Yes, Brooke died too miserably, and the Siamese must be repaid ...... blood."

"But, ma'am, now the whole country of Siam is under the control of the evil military junta, and those Siamese people have long been influenced by militaristic ideology, and are full of hatred for foreign peoples, and only by completely defeating the Siamese army, cutting off its foreign aid, and liquidating its evil government, can we find the murderer of Mr. Ambassador!" Zhang Han purposefully induced.

Mrs. Ruth nodded again and again, and then remembered that she and her daughter were saved by the person in front of her and his partner, and recalled that from the tunnel, the ** female corpses that lost their heads and bled from their lower bodies were seen in the gospel church, and her eyes showed gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, if it weren't for you, my daughter and I wouldn't have escaped the poisonous hands of the Siamese." Now that the city of Bangkok is in chaos, I don't know when the country will know what is happening here, and I don't know how to repay him. ”

Zhang Han pointed upwards and listened to the faint sound of the anti-aircraft cannon: "Madam, listen, this should be Nanhua's air force attacking Bangkok City, and we can only hope that Nanhua's ground troops will enter Bangkok as soon as possible and rescue us, otherwise this place will be discovered by the Siamese sooner or later." ”

When Mrs. Ruth heard this, her hair stood upside down and asked nervously, "Do you need us to do anything?" ”

Zhang Han pointed to the telegraph carried by a search and rescue team member who had served as a gardener at the British Embassy: "This is the transmitter we rescued from the Embassy, we brought the code book out together, and we want to report what happened here to the UK in the name of our wife." Only by depriving the Siamese people of the support of the international community and preventing the inflow of supplies to Siam can we end the war as soon as possible and we will be truly safe! ”

Lady Ruth was surprised and delighted: "This could not be better, I will go and consult with Anne, Barbara, Amy, and Belinda at once, and ask the British government to tell the government of their country about the tragedy that has taken place here." In any case, those executioners cannot be allowed to go unpunished. ”

Zhang Han knew that Anne was the wife of the American ambassador, Barbara was the wife of the Belgian ambassador, Amy was the wife of the French ambassador, and Belinda was the wife of the German ambassador, so he was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was silent: "Then let's move faster, it is estimated that the governments of various countries have not yet reacted to what happened in Bangkok, and we will promote the governments of all countries to unanimously blockade Siam." ”

Mrs. Ruth stood up and took her daughter's hand: "I am also a special correspondent for the Daily Telegraph, and I must expose the crimes against the white race that are happening here to the media. I will also ask the wives of the ambassadors to expose to the media in their countries that they must force the current government to adopt a tough policy towards Siam......"
