Chapter 109: Rush
Huangmei, a makeshift airport was quickly built on the side of the road.
Road and bridge engineers drove dirt stackers and rollers to quickly bulldoze a small hill to form a runway. A radar station on another hill had already been built, and anti-aircraft artillery positions were hidden in the woods.
Jingmen, an improved fighter based on the Hawk II, finally has a completely complete flight control, radar, and fire control system.
The modification of twenty Hawk II fighters has been completed. After several months of rushing work, the five fighters that have newly started construction are almost off the assembly line. There are five more on the other side that are already halfway through. The goal of the aircraft factory is to complete the construction and testing within a month.
The missile production plant also has a more complete missile size, and the navigation system is reduced, which ensures the effectiveness of the rocket engine and warhead. This missile is extremely accurate in clear weather. But once the weather is bad, it can only be thrown as an ordinary bomb.
Liu Qing moved to Wuhan, and since the Lushun incident, there have been non-stop Japanese requests to see him. And every time you need to do a lot of security work, the workload in Wuhan is much smaller. On the surface, many of the people who came to Liu Qing seemed to be Japanese anti-war and peace people, but every time they came, they wanted to visit around.
Liu Qing directly refused, saying that if you want to communicate, you can do it at Wuhan University, where there are students and teachers from all over the world.
For months, people have been sniped by Darkmoon. Most of them have ties to Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. As rumors of a new fighter jet in China became more and more evidence-based, the Germans began to inquire from various sources.
H.E. Arnold asked Zeng Simin for confirmation. Mr. Zeng said China was indeed experimenting with jet engines. However, because the thrust is not enough, it can only fly in the semi-gliding mode of kite, and the maneuverability is very poor. The only good thing is that it is possible to fly at high altitudes. Similar to the German airship. Because there is no maneuvering function, there is no ability to counterattack when encountering fighters. So just a raid weapon. Airships can do the same.
The conversation quickly made it to European newspapers and was recognized by experts. Because Britain and the United States have only reached this extent, they just didn't expect to adopt a semi-gliding method that is extremely unsuitable for actual combat.
Such a conclusion, only Japan doubted, because at the time of the bombing of Arthur. Chinese planes once strafed at low altitudes. It's just that Japan didn't disclose it to the outside world except for sending spies.
Zeng Simin's conversation also led to the study of gliding methods and airships in various countries. Jet engines because of their low thrust. The high fuel consumption and short range are considered by various countries to be inadequate.
――――――――――
Wuyuan, later generations may be famous. But now it's just an extremely ordinary place.
Xitou Town, First Legion. Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Chun and Mao Shishan have been here for a few days. He Long was transferring elite soldiers from the Second and Third Armies to the First Army. At the same time, the rocket regiments and armored regiments of the First Army were also being transferred to the two corps.
Li Dazhao and Wu Hao also rushed over.
When the Anti-Japanese War broke out in Shanghai, the Supreme Military Council decided to aid Shanghai, but Chiang Kai-shek refused.
Mao Shishan came up with a bold idea. The People's Army's best skill is jungle warfare, and starting from Wuyuan, passing through the Huangshan Mountains, the Tianmu Mountains and the Taihu Lake, there are lofty mountains here. Mountainous and forested.
After the Kuomintang purged the party, the grassroots organizations of the Kuomintang in the rural areas were lost. In recent years, the CCP's executive committee has spent its energies on rural areas in remote mountainous areas, areas that are difficult for the KMT to access. Therefore, in fact, about 50 percent of the CCP organizations in Huangshan, Wuyishan, and Tianmu Mountain have been restored, but they have learned the lessons of the past and have not engaged in riots in a big way. These areas have a certain capacity for rural self-government.
Mao Shishan proposed that it was completely possible to send an army to pass through the mountains and reach the Taihu Lake basin without noticing. Then storm Shanghai.
The Military Council believes that it is not difficult to take Shanghai, but what is difficult is what to do if it is taken.
Mao Shishan believed that the occupation of Shanghai was not necessarily a victory, but a hard blow to Japan was a victory. At the same time, it also shows the resolute attitude of the People's Revolutionary Army in cracking down on foreign aggressors. However, in fact, the main battlefield of the anti-Japanese battlefield is no longer in Shanghai, but in the northeast. Therefore, the occupation of Shanghai will not contribute to the reputation of the Chinese Communist Party, and abandoning Shanghai and turning the main energy to the north, which is close to the Japanese-occupied areas, is conducive to winning the feelings of the people of the whole country. Shanghai and the Songhu area have always been the sphere of influence of the capitalists, and it is better to give up and wait and see what happens than to keep strife. Shanghai is just a surprise operation, and the main direction of attack of the troops should be the Longhai line, and in any case, this railway line must be obtained and the sea mouth should be obtained. At the same time, taking Shandong will basically complete the initiative of whether to regain the northeast.
Mao Shishan's suggestion was accepted by most people. But if you run long distances, you can't bring heavy weapons. Therefore, only elite soldiers can be selected, and the combat time cannot be long. It is definitely impossible to return the same way, so you can only cross the river and go north. Only by echoing the north and south can the security of the troops be ensured.
This bold idea was discussed several times by the Military Council, and finally approved by Zhang Chun because of his support for the plan.
The condition is that the time must be accurate, and the air force must take out the Japanese navy and air force.
Thirty fighters against more than a hundred, it is still a little difficult. Zeng Yijing believed that if the weather was good, if he faced off with the Japanese fighters, as long as he was not attacked or surrounded by the Japanese army, he could basically guarantee zero losses. And it can also use the high advantage to keep the military secrets that it should have.
From the beginning of February, intelligence, material, military sources, and local party organizations began to prepare.
Zhang Chun and Mao Shishan arrived in Wuyuan and were responsible for the attack on Shanghai. Because in the event of an emergency, Zhang Chun can make decisions on behalf of the Wuhan government.
Liu Ying and Liu Bocheng have already rushed to Zhengzhou.
Due to the danger of this attack, Yang Kaihui was left in Wuhan, and Mao Shishan was still a little unaccustomed to it.
After several reformations of the troops, the cadres have been disorganized. Zhang Liang was actually transferred from the Second Army to the First Army. Zhang Liang has been a lot more serious in recent years, his son Zhang Zhi has just come to make trouble, the little guy is seventeen years old, he grew up in the core area since he was a child, he doesn't like to read, and he likes to be a soldier like his father. The physical fitness is three stars, and it is considered to be outstanding in a group of recruits.
Zhang Zhi raised a little wolf, and he was okay in the army, since he arrived in Jiangxi, because the people of Jiangxi are not as strong as the core area. caused a lot of trouble for Zhang Liang.
Also making trouble with Zhang Zhi is Lin Yurong. Lin Yurong has come out of the military academy, but his physical fitness has just reached two stars, and he was originally an instructor in a company. This time I had to go to the front.
Zhang Liang said: "You two can come, follow the veteran, and listen to the veteran." Don't bring wolves, don't cause trouble for me. ”
Zhang Zhi turned his head with tears in his eyes and left, while Lin Yurong happily saluted Zhang Chun before leaving.
A large number of scouts from various units are being transferred to the First Army, have experience in jungle operations, have a three-star physique, have participated in at least 10 actual battles, and have destroyed at least 10 enemies. That's the minimum standard. All the armies sent their best soldiers, but they still couldn't get together 30,000 men. It's just that Zhang Zhi doesn't have such a combat experience, and it can be regarded as Zhang Liang opening the back door.
The little guy was very proud, and he was angry that Zhang Chun didn't speak for him.
"Lao Zhang, don't be angry, the little guy will know after a few experiences. With his physical fitness and flexibility, as long as he listens to the veteran, nothing will happen. Mao Shishan explained.
Mao Shishan's son is more than five years old, and he is also restless when he studies at Xinmin Primary School. named Mao Anying, but it seems that there is no similarity with Mao Anying in later generations, the two not only gave birth to later, but also gave birth to only this one. Both of them are workaholics, and they don't want too many children to be involved.
"It's all his wife's favorite, and they're all lawless." Zhang Liang didn't have much to do with this son.
Zhang Chun said with a smile: "Child, it's okay to be arrogant, I heard that he performed well in the army." Just like this in front of you. ”
"If he really does nonsense to the people, I will kill him immediately." Zhang Liang sighed, his mouth was tough, but everyone could see that he was reluctant.
Chen Yi explained with a smile: "This guy used a wolf to give the children of Wuyuan Primary School a morning exercise, and the little ones were scared to death." ”
Zhang Chun and Lizhi had black lines on their faces.
Zhang Chun nodded and said, "This matter should be taught a lesson." Children who grow up in a good environment may not understand the reality of the country. Where conditions permit, there should be a planned exchange between schools. Let children from areas with good conditions live with students in areas with poor conditions for a period of time. ”
Li Dazhao said with a smile: "If it weren't for the war, this plan would have been implemented. ”
Zhang Chun sighed: "Even if it's a war, it has to be exchanged." Children are our hope, not tempered, always protect how to do. Also, I am afraid that the children of cadres will be more protected. The children of cadres go first. ”
Several people nodded, and they all smiled and asked, "It's time for the people and the two of them." ”
This time it was Zhang Chun's turn and Lizhi was uncomfortable. (To be continued......)
