Large-scale group bombing is not only a large number of aircraft, but also during the bombing.

In the past bombing, when flying over the target, the flight formation will automatically disperse, and the timing of the bomb drop is controlled by the pilot, but the group bombing is not, and the flight commander gives a unified order, and the commander of each detachment orders the bomb, and each detachment is formed in accordance with the squadron. \\, 0m///From beginning to end of the operation, each formation must maintain a formation and unify the bombing time.

"I'll do it, so I'll do it." Without waiting for Gao Zhihang to speak, Xue Muhua couldn't wait to open his mouth to support, and Lu showed a leaping look.

Li Mei looked at Gao Zhihang, Gao Zhihang nodded silently, after the seven-year war, his temperament has become much calmer, and he thinks twice about everything before speaking.

"Sir, Japan has a radar, and if we enter Japan at a low altitude, we will inevitably be discovered by them, and we are likely to be intercepted by Japanese planes on the way." Rejimi hesitated: "Do you want our fighters to escort us?" "It's not very useful, the combat radius of the Mustang battle can't reach Tokyo." Gao Zhihang shook his head.

"There is still a way" Li Mei was confident about this: "The British once adopted a method to deceive the German radar, they sprinkled metal strips in the air, and a large number of flying targets were reflected on the radar screen, so as to force the German army not to take off to meet the battle, at least it could achieve the purpose of dispersing the enemy army." "Sprinkle metal strips, that's kind of interesting." Gao Zhihang pondered.

Although China is the first country to adopt radar, there is little research on radar tactics, and it is not because of the slow development of Japan's radar technology, in fact, Japan's radar technology is developing rapidly, the biggest reason is that the balance of air force between China and Japan has changed too quickly, China quickly fell to the bottom after the Battle of Wuhan, and after the outbreak of the Pacific War, it quickly occupied an overwhelming advantage, so radar has only played an early warning role, and does not play a decisive role. China is not worried about Japanese radars.

"Starting tomorrow, all planes that can go to the sky will conduct group bombing training." Li Mei made a decision.

In the evening, this order reached every airfield, and in the ears of every pilot, the Chinese and American pilots behaved completely differently, the Chinese pilots rejoiced, and the American pilots kept cursing.

The next day, the local people found that the sky was full of planes, huge B29 and B17 formations swept by from low altitudes, the entire space was filled with the roar of engines, and people in the fields of cities and villages looked up at the sky, speculating about what was going to happen.

The training didn't last long, and it couldn't last long, because fuel was a very precious thing that had to be transported from Yangon, which was tens of thousands of kilometers away.

Gao Zhihang decided to personally participate in the bombing, but Xue Muhua resolutely opposed it, but Li Mei expressed his support and proposed that he also participate in this operation, which made Gao Zhihang unable to agree again.

Nominally, Li Mei was the supreme commander of this unit, and he was responsible for commanding all the Sino-American joint air forces in North and East China: another U.S. Air Force was in charge of the Sino-American joint air force in Burma: Gao Zhihang was also Li Mei's deputy, and he was in charge of all the Chinese air forces in Shandong.

"General Li Mei, as the supreme commander, you should stay on the ground, and I, as your deputy, should go to the sky and command all the aircraft participating in the battle." Gao Zhihang's expression was serious, no one knew how dangerous this bombing was, but the danger was definitely there, and it was undoubtedly inappropriate for Li Mei, as the supreme commander, to participate in such an operation.

"Sir, this time I support General Gao's opinion." Rejimi was also against it.

"General Li Mei, I think that if you can participate in the air attack on Japan, you should consult General Weidemeyer." Xue Muhua said jokingly, his tone was a little joking, but it was the truth, whether Li Mei could go to the sky or not must be approved by Wei Demaier.

The three of them opposed at the same time, which made Li Mei have to give in, and decided that Gao Zhihang would be the air commander of the entire operation, with Xue Muhua and Rejimi as his deputies, and Gao Zhihang would take the pilot bomber and turn to an altitude of 10,000 meters after dropping the bomb to observe the results of the battle.

In order to cover the real target, outside the main group, Li Mei decided to send three detachments, each with four B17s, to throw metal bars in the air around Daling, Yokohama and other places to disrupt the judgment of the Japanese army.

Plans were drawn up, and various preparations were intensified at various airports, and Li Mei's opinion was to choose a night without moonlight, but Gao Zhihang thought that a windy night should be chosen, which would help the fire spread. Li Mei once again accepted Gao Zhihang's advice and set the departure time for the next night.

Three hundred and sixty planes gathered in the ocean off the Jiaodong Peninsula and formed a formation, with stars in the sky and red indicator lights flashing in the night.

As the citizens of Tokyo become accustomed to the daily air raid sirens, night patrols are organized in each neighborhood to remind residents to turn off their lights and to prevent spies from signaling the Shina Air Force.

The frequent air raids did not completely affect the lives of the citizens of Tokyo, and some strange rumors circulated among the citizens, such as a family digging a pond, and the bombs of the Shina Air Force were dropped in the yard, but the house did not burn, and the owner of the house came back to find that the pond had burned dry, and all the goldfish in it had been burned to death, and it turned out that they had replaced the owner's house, so the goldfish were offered up and became the protector of some people. There are also a large number of fired ceramic goldfish on the market, which attracts many citizens to buy them.

"Listen to wasabi mixed with beans to avoid the bombing of the Chinese planes." Mrs. Ishikawa was packing up her clothes for Tanabe.

This is another widely circulated rumor that a family member grinds the red beans they buy into noodles and mixes the mustard together to make a dough. As a result, they were all safe from several bombings, while their neighbor's house was burned down.

Tatetakanosuke sneered, Tanabe was also happy, and the two of them sat at the square table drinking tea and chatting, the burns on their bodies were not completely healed, and they were all covered with gauze.

"Don't laugh, someone saw it. Mrs. Ishikawa accentuated her tone, and she put the folded clothes into the box, and then placed the two ceramic goldfish in front of the sacred gold, clapping her hands respectfully and praying.

"No" Tanabe just said a word when he saw Tachitakanosuke shaking his head slightly, and he immediately changed the topic: "Didn't you see that the Shina Air Force hasn't come these days, was it scared away by the goldfish Daisen." Tachitakanosuke, who was drinking water, almost choked on the words and coughed violently, and Mrs. Ishikawa hurried over and gently beat him on the back, and at this moment they were like a family. Mrs. Ishikawa is like a hard-working housekeeper, and Tatsunosuke is like a somewhat lazy husband, comfortably enjoying his wife's clothes.

Tatsunosuke waved his hand: "Don't be busy, the Shina plane hasn't come for a few days, it's just a rest, they've been bombing for almost half a month, people are tired, the plane is also tired, and they'll come again after resting, hurry up and rest, I have to go to work tomorrow." "Mrs. Ishikawa's factory operates three shifts, the late-night shift is from 12 o'clock at night to 6 a.m., and the late-night shift is rotated.

"Don't believe it, Mrs. Okawa next door went to the countryside to buy rice yesterday, and the price of rice on the black market has risen again, these black-hearted merchants." Mrs. Ishikawa is like a wife complaining to her husband that the Japanese grain purchase restrictions have directly led to the active black market, and the government's pricing has not changed, but the black market price has changed day by day.

Tatsunosuke suddenly frowned and thought about it: "Tanabe-kun, why don't we go to the countryside and buy a piece of land to farm, no matter how the market changes, food can always be produced in the field, and we won't starve to death." ”

Tatsunosuke and Tanabe have been running around for the past few days, trying to find a job, but when they took out their resumes, no one dared to give them even heavy physical jobs that were seriously lacking people, and the two of them were still eating their old books.

"I'm afraid we don't have enough money." Tanabe hesitated, his financial situation became more tight, Tachitakanosuke was one person to feed the whole family and not hungry, and he still had a wife and children.

Tatsunosuke frowned slightly, as if he didn't believe it, Tanabe smiled bitterly and didn't explain, Tatsunosuke sighed and stood up and opened his box, his hand moaned in it, and took out a handkerchief, which was obviously wrapped in something.

On the square table, the room was glittering with gold, and five gold bars were placed on the table like this, Tanabe looked at Tachitakanosuke in surprise, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated.

"Don't look at me like that, I've served the empire for twenty years, and these things are all my savings." Tatsunosuke picked up a gold bar and looked at it carefully, as if recalling something: "This one was exchanged in Manchuria, and it cost me a year's savings at that time, and this one was exchanged in Tianjin after the Battle of Rehe." Tanabe's expression softened, and Tachitakanosuke sighed: "It's already today, we should have made a fortune in China back then, and with the power we have, those merchants in China are still rushing to send money." "Ligaojun, just laugh." Tanabe shook his head, but Mrs. Ishikawa reproached, "How can you think like this, isn't it so difficult for everyone, it's illegal to do this." Don't think so. Tatsunosuke grimaced at Tanabe, and Tanabe smiled, although he had only lived for a few days, he knew that Mrs. Ishikawa was actually a very simple woman who didn't know much about society.

In the Kwantung Army and the Chinese Dispatch Army, there were many high-ranking officials and high-ranking generals who used their power to seek spoils of war and accept bribes from Japanese merchants.

There were more such things in the Kwantung Army, under the slogan of opening up territory for the empire, Manchuria was a paradise, Japanese merchants occupied almost all areas of Manchuria, any Kwantung Army officer could get gold bars and antiques, Tanabe actually got some property, but these things were sent home by him.

These acts in the army were strictly blocked, and the Kwantung Army Command and the Chinese Dispatch Army of the Warby Dispatch Army had carried out strikes, especially some enthusiastic young officers, who were deeply disgusted by this kind of behavior, so this kind of behavior did not spread, and the lower-level officers and soldiers did not know about it at all.

"Lights out! Lights controlled! The old man came in from the outside, and when he saw that the light was still on in their window, he hurried at them, and looked very angry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Mrs. Ishikawa apologized repeatedly, and Tatsunosuke stood up and closed the curtains, leaving no light in the room.

"The air defense needs everyone's cooperation, and they will attack the target and attract the plane!" The old man was still chattering, and Mrs. Ishikawa nodded frequently.

"Don't worry, it won't be like this again." Tatsutakanosuke came out and said.

After the last time he put out the fire, Tachitakanosuke didn't hate the old man so much, but the old man had a kind of awe for Ritakanosuke, and when he saw Tachitakanosuke come forward, he didn't ramble anymore, muttered a few words and left.

"This old guy is getting more and more energetic." Tanabe said with a smile that Mrs. Ishikawa turned off the lamp, lit a candle, and packed everything up before she said goodbye to the two of them.

"How? We went to the countryside to buy a piece of land and grow it for ourselves. Ristakanosuke brought up the topic again
