Chapter 314: Blood Debt and Blood Repayment
The 20th and 25th Heavy Explosives Brigades stationed in Korea braved the condemnation of the world and flew over the territory of the Soviet Union to attack Baotou? What brought Zhang Xuewu more was worry and anger, you must know that all of Zhang Xuewu's belongings are in Baotou at the moment, so he blew himself up? Who knows what was lost? But for Zhang Xuewu, whether it is the loss of equipment or personnel, Zhang Xuewu cannot afford to lose.
But the current situation of the war made Zhang Xuewu have no time to separate, until noon, the loss report in the direction of Baotou was reported, Zhang Xuewu read the report, the previous worry completely turned into anger, because in the Baotou military factory are implemented 24-hour work system, due to the lack of manpower can only work two shifts, so that the technical workers and technicians and engineers who work twelve hours a day can be described as extremely tired.
Therefore, the Baotou political axe side came forward to build a large-scale full-support school not far from the industrial zone, from kindergarten to middle school, it can be said that many children of military and political officials in Baotou are also in the school room and board, and the center of the bombing is in the school location, because the military planes have never broken through the absolute air defense circle of Baotou, so Baotou has not implemented light control, because the bombers of the army are in a hurry to evacuate, so they randomly dropped bombs on a group of buildings that have been built on a very large scale. As a result, this is the core base of education in Baotou Industrial Base.
According to incomplete clean-up and statistics, about 1,100 children between the ages of 3 and 15 were killed in the bombing by the Japanese army, and Zhang Xuewu naturally knew the weight of this report, which meant that more than 1,000 families fell into a state of grief, so Baotou's military production will inevitably be greatly affected, because most of the children in the education base are the technical core backbone of the industrial base.
However, what shocked Zhang Xuewu was that the production in Baotou Industrial Zone did not stop for a moment, and many of the children's parents fainted at work, but after waking up, they went all out to work, and the parents of the children who were killed said that the children's funeral affairs would be handed over to the political axe, and they wanted to use the steel, bombs, and guns they produced to make them pay for their blood debts.
The entire Baotou industrial base has set off a big competition of production, quality and contribution, and in this completely spontaneous competition, many people have worked consciously for fifteen hours. Many workers are really tired and take a break at the workbench and then go to work, and they put all their hatred for themselves into their work.
Soon, the photos of the corpses of the killed children were sent to Zhang Xuewu's former enemy headquarters in Chengde, looking at those young bodies that had become mutilated because of the cruelty of Yue Kou, and the grief-stricken mother was covered in blood and holding the child who had already died of breath and crying, Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath, this is better than blowing up Lao Tzu's power plant!
Put military industrial facilities, arsenals, and even tank parking lots and two aircraft assembly plants without bombing? Why don't you go to a boarding school that is mostly for young children? Say I didn't do it on purpose? Will the families of the children who died accept it? Therefore, the official definition of this attack given by the 10th War Zone was that the brutal militarist invaders deliberately carried out inhumane bombing of the educational base for most children, resulting in the death of 1,298 children and 79 teachers and nurses.
Zhang Xuewu immediately convened an emergency meeting of the Commander of the 10th Theater Command, in fact, this emergency meeting was only presided over by Zhang Xuewu alone, and most of the participants were operational staff officers and confidential secretaries, but everyone present seemed a little excited, because as long as this kind of scene happened, it proved that Chief Zhang was going to make a big move.
Ueda Kenkichi is preparing to hold a grand award ceremony in Xinjing for his successful surprise attack, and give the greatest honor to these bomber pilots who broke through the absolute defense circle of Baotou, but Ueda Kenkichi has not yet thought about what medals to award to the pilots and crew members of the Army Air Corps, and specifically communicate with the Army Aviation Department again, for Ueda Kenkichi, according to the results of the attack on the Baotou Industrial Zone and the silence of the Tenth War Zone, Ueda Kenkichi has a premonition, That is, Zhang Xuewu is likely to take revenge on himself in a desperate way! Once Zhang Xuewu loses his mind, then his attack plan seems to be closer to success.
Ueda Kenkichi took a deep breath and said to Kurosakichi beside him: "Send a report to Chief of Staff Tojo!" Pine Crane! ”
Because the pine is evergreen, it means immortality, and the crane is auspicious because of its aura! The meaning of Songhe in the text is to report good news for ten thousand years, and wish success! That's why Kenkichi Ueda chose this word as the code name for Hideki Tojo's attack.
Hideki Tojo, who received the order to attack, immediately personally commanded the Ohara Tachie Chariot Division and the 23rd Mechanized Division, and began to quickly attack from the hidden area and advance rapidly towards Datong, Tojo Hideki has two sets of combat plans, the first set is to capture Datong, but he is afraid that the attack on Datong will delay too much time, so that the middle [***] in the direction of Baotou is prepared, so Tojo Hideki decided that since it is a risky attack, it is better to play a thorough heartbeat, directly and quickly through Datong, around without attacking, with the main force straight into Baotou, Give Zhang Xuewu a black tiger to dig out his heart.
said that he had begun to show his fangs, and Zhang Xuewu was also preparing for war, and many people in later generations thought that the weapons and equipment troops could be used for a few months or even a year? For example, during the Battle of Songhu, the army suffered more than 50,000 casualties, but after the war, more than 20,000 Type 38 rifles, more than 1,000 light and heavy machine guns, and more than 200 mortars were added.
Among the infantry light weapons of the 12 divisions of the Dingyuan battalion imported from the Soviet Union at the beginning of the year, the rifle model was the Mosinagan M1930 model, and compared with the M1891 model, its biggest feature was that the barrel was shortened from 803 mm to 729 mm, and a circular receiver with a simplified process was adopted.
This batch of Mosina dry rifles was produced earlier, after the test of the Soviet Army's training, some of the M1891 models are mostly battlefield recycling, accessories are not complete, many are overused, in the cold climate of Rehe, often these guns are frozen, many officers and soldiers are forced to use pedals, the grassroots troops reacted strongly, to this batch of Mosina dry rifles named pedal guns, that it is not as good as the Mauser 1924 standard rifles produced by the Baotou Military Factory, from 1952, Compared with the Mauser standard rifle, it is lighter, more powerful, more accurate, has a long range, has a strong penetrating force, and has a moderate length, compared with the officers and soldiers who prefer the Zhonghua Type 1 semi-automatic rifle, but the output of this gun has not been able to keep up with the speed of the expansion of the troops, coupled with the battlefield attrition, so the 10th Theater can only be half mixed.
The Soviet-made Depp light machine gun can be very good, but when the gun is carried at night, the bullet disc is prone to rattle, so that the enemy will detect it prematurely. Although the Czech light machine gun has the advantage of accurate shooting, the magazine capacity cannot guarantee the output of firepower, and without a large amount of oil lubrication, it is easy to jam and the failure of the gun reset is not in place. In the counterattack without a gun carriage, can move with the infantry, only two people can be easily shot, killing and injuring the enemy at a distance is the most effective, compared to the Maxim heavy machine gun is the least applicable, the parts are complex, unfortified can not be shot, the volume is bulky and must use water, especially in the mountain environment and in winter is extremely inconvenient.
Therefore, Zhang Xuewu intercepted some of the weapons that were suitable for use and large-scale installation in the Tenth Theater, and the rest were all transported to the rear through Jinxi, and the most important thing is that now the Tenth Theater has opened up the country, and even Baotou has been attacked by bombers of the Yue Army, but there has been no movement at all in the Wuhan National Axe? Every day I shout and prepare for battle! Prepare for battle! But the Fifth Theater of Operations has always maintained a defensive posture?
The Yue army has concentrated so many troops, Zhang Xuewu does not believe that the Yue army will not transfer the troops of the North China Front? For example, Okamura Ningji, who has been making great progress towards Xuzhou before, seems to have been silent for a long time?
In fact, Zhang Xuewu also has his own secret weapon, but this special weapon is Zhang Xuewu does not want to use on a large scale, in the history of 1938, by the German Schrader and other five people, in the production of combined insecticides found an additional product with great side effects, this poison is named sarin with the letters in the names of five people! The Germans quickly discovered the military value of this gas and put it into production, but it was not used during World War II! After World War II, countries carved up Germany's military technology, and this poison began to be mass-produced around the world.
Zhang Xuewu has two special refineries and a production workshop for 1005-millimeter artillery shells and 100-kilogram aerial bombs in the Gannan area of Gansu Province.
However, sarin, as a kind of nerve poison gas, is extremely harmful, and it is used against the army in Northeast China or North China? This will inevitably injure innocent people and cause innocent deaths among civilians, and the "anti-type" gas masks equipped by the officers and men of the 10th Theater do not yet have the ability to filter sarin, which means that positive pressure airtight respirators are needed to deal with sarin, a nerve gas.
Undoubtedly, positive pressure closed breathing apparatus is only equipped in small quantities in the special refinery in Gannan, and Zhang Xuewu can't afford to equip this thing at all, and once poison gas is used on a large scale, Zhang Xuewu is afraid that he will open the lid of this Pandora's box with his own hands.
