Chapter 238: The Battle of Nanjing: The Peerless Light Cavalry (I)
Yamamuro Sotake slammed Tenya Shinjiro, a lieutenant general's division commander slammed a wing captain can become a news, you must know that the bushido spirit I pursue is also killable and humiliating, in the old saying of the Chinese, to put it bluntly, it is a cheap skin! However, when it is generally at the level of wing commander, the officer can let him cut his abdomen, and he will generally not beat people, after all, senior officers need majesty and face.
This time, the commander of the Shinjiro Brigade of Amaya was violently pumped by the division commander Yamamuro Sotake, but he had no complaints? There is a lot of speculation about the reason for this, but in fact, the person who beat the person and the person who was beaten have been silent about it, that is, Sotake Yamamuro actually asked Shinjiro Amaya if the two geisha were where he was? As a Shangguan, where is there a reason to brush the pot for his subordinates? However, Shinjiro Amaya pretended to be mushy and passed the test.
Yamamuro Sotakeshi also knew that Shinjiro Amaya's friend Nishimin, the second was the logistics minister of the front army, and how to distribute this batch of geisha Nishimin had absolute power, and now people were snatched away from Shinjiro Amaya's command, and Yamamuro Sotake was sorry for the fire in his stomach if he didn't smoke Shinjiro Amaya.
said that when he was eating a dog, Zhang Xuewu drank some sake from Ye Yunfei's filial piety with satisfaction, but Lian Yue's fatigue and broken wine were extremely high, and the result was vomiting and diarrhea, and he hugged Huang Fei'er after drinking and didn't know what to say?
The rumbling sound of the cannon early the next morning did not cheer up Zhang Xuewu, as he did not recover his spirit until noon, Zhang Xuewu's first thing was to scold Ye Yunfei, and Ye Yunfei, who was afraid of going up to the horse's hooves, was also very helpless.
For his drunkenness, Zhang Xuewu seriously reflected, in later generations, what he couldn't see the most was that Xiao Yue didn't drink two or two cat urine and danced with his hands, in the result of the history of his country, Zhang Xuewu estimated that it may be because his country is used to being poor, and there is not enough food to eat, where can there be a lot of food used to make wine? And the surname is despicable and shameless, and he is very good at wine, so the surname Suo researches to brew a kind of broken wine that goes on without a few sips, which can not only solve the problem of drinking alcohol, but also achieve the purpose of saving food? Therefore, the main reason for the easy drunkenness of this broken wine.
In fact, this is just one of Zhang Xuewu's "Zhang's Interpretations" on the general history, folklore, legends, etc., I am afraid that even Amaterasu and Shenwu, a pair of old glass rabbits, will crawl out of the grave and fight with Zhang Xuewu.
While he was actively planning and preparing to strike a fatal blow to the strategic forces deployed by the Chinese Air Force in Nanjing, Zhang Xuewu also summoned Xu Guangzeng, the first chief of operations of Zhou Zhirou of the Chinese Air Force, and Major General Magtonov, the captain of the Soviet Union's support air force for China. Gao Zhihang, the commander-in-chief of the Flying Tigers, prepared a joint operation, targeting the five aircraft carriers anchored in Shanghai, of which the Kaga, Ryuchamp, and Chilong, which arrived at the earliest, were the main targets, and the two aircraft carriers, Fengxiang and Kamikaze, were the second supplementary targets.
It is worth mentioning that the Kamikaze aircraft carrier that came to Shanghai did not have this ship in history, but through aerial reconnaissance, it was found that the kamikaze was better than the Red Dragon and was a heavy aircraft carrier, and Zhang Xuewu also realized that this was probably the product of a butterfly effect after the adjustment of the proportion of army and navy resources after the defeat of the Chengde army, right? After all, it seems reasonable to say that he has stopped the construction of his 80,000-ton giant ship Yamato and its sister ship Musashi, and that there are two or three more aircraft carriers.
After all, a behemoth with a full load displacement of 80,000 tons is a huge challenge that even the British did not have the courage to try, and from another side it can also reflect what kind of madness the reckless military force has reached.
Zhang Xuewu decided to take advantage of the fact that the aircraft carrier of the Navy's Navy, which had never been attacked, planned to dispatch 21 "Nospou" light bombers from the Second Group of the Chinese Air Force and 12 "Douglas" light bombers from the Sixth Group, nine "Hengle" light bombers from the Eighth Group, all 37 BF-109F multi-role fighters from the Flying Tigers, and 32 Yi-5 light bombers from the Soviet Support Air Force for China. All destroyers, attack aircraft, and fighters of the Chinese Air Force and the Soviet Support Air Force took to the skies to protect the bomber group.
The group of planes that have taken off from the four airfields will arrive over the aircraft carriers at dawn on 7 June, when the attack planes and destroyers will be responsible for covering the bombers for dropping bombs; because the ranges of the attack planes and destroyers of various types are different and the time they stay in the air is different, it is necessary to pay attention to the ability of the fighters and the coordination of the fighters at high and low altitudes.
Zhang Xuewu only put forward tactical requirements, and handed over the specific ones to professional air force staff officers, and Zhang Xuewu still has a deep understanding of the sentence that he specializes in art.
In order to coordinate with this operation, Chen Jiliang, commander of the First Fleet of the Chinese Navy, personally led four capital ships, "Pinghai", "Ninghai", "Yingrui", and "Yixian," as the lead, and the Second Fleet's "Chuyou," "Chutai," "Zhengning," "Suining," "Qingtian," "Hupeng," "Hustork," "Pingming," and "Jiesheng" followed closely behind.
The purpose of the Chinese naval formation was to strengthen the air defense of the Yanziji Fort and to intercept the destroyer fleet that might come again along the river.
At three o'clock in the morning on June 7, 1937, the bomber group of the Chinese Air Force began to rise from four field airfields, and several people dressed as peasants found that after the plane took off, they sneakily rushed back, and when they entered the courtyard, they did not enter the room, but drilled into the cellar behind the house. Immediately, two black shadows flashed out of the darkness on both sides, threw two small cylinders into the cellar one after another, and after two dull explosions, the two entered the cellar with M1911 pistols in hand.
Cheng Guangming, who belonged to the second combat detachment of the Falcon, was a standard veteran, and after eight years in the Central Army, he always felt that he had no talent, so he came to Rehe three years ago to sign up for the paratrooper special commando team that was famous at that time.
As a result, Cheng Guangming, who felt that he had always been good, found that his stunt was not enough to see here, from a veteran to a recruit, starting from the queue, internal affairs regulations, military regulations, each of which had to be memorized, Cheng Guangming gradually understood that what was needed here was not individual heroism, but the cooperation of all with superb combat skills, and handed over his back to his teammates, which undoubtedly required great trust and courage.
After more than three years of training, Cheng Guangming's first mission was to kill a group of spies lurking next to the Cheung Chau Field Airport to monitor, according to the instructions of the detachment, this is not to mention the killing of this group of spies, so Cheng Guangming and his teammates threw two 56-petal special high-explosive grenades after killing the last soldier with a silenced pistol.
This special grenade customized for the paratrooper special commando can produce more than 1,000 pieces of prefabricated fragments each, because the bullet body is gyro-shaped, it always maintains the vertical state of the projectile body during the throwing process, and the fragments after the explosion can be said to be splashed everywhere, even within the 20-degree safety angle of its ordinary defensive grenade, it is difficult to escape the doom, this grenade has a very Westernized name, called "The Call of Death".
Cheng Guangming refilled the three smoke-smoking corpses in the cellar one by one, and then checked that there was no danger in the cellar, and then began to clean up the items and radio stations left by the army, and Cheng Guangming was surprised to find that there were not only more than 50 Type 38 rifles and five Taisho 11 type light machine guns, but also a Type 92 heavy machine gun that had not yet been assembled, and six grenadiers, which were a standard weapon of the 70-man squad of the Yue Army.
He actually smuggled so many weapons into Jiangbei? Cheng Guangming was scared when he thought about it, he had been monitoring this place for 12 days, except for one time when he carried some straw into the courtyard here, he didn't see him make any moves, in fact, these people died unjustly, in a farmer's house in a farm in the war zone, there were several young adults? This in itself is a very strange place.
You must know that the young and middle-aged people in the fifteen counties near Nanjing have basically been conscripted into the army, and although they are not tall, they appear to be very strong, which is different from the common lack of nutrition in Chinese young and middle-aged people.
Could it be that this is a point of contact for me? Cheng Guangming quickly communicated with his teammates and decided to use this place to ambush the Yue army again, because according to the usual intelligence, he must have a purpose for deploying so many weapons here.
While the paratrooper special commandos were closely deployed and ready to wait for the rabbit, with a hint of fish white on the horizon, the last trace of darkness before dawn was quietly receding.
Although the air forces of China and the Chinese and the Chinese armed forces fought fierce battles around the Nanjing Theater, the four aircraft carriers of the Chinese army anchored outside Shanghai were never attacked in any way.
Above the five aircraft carriers spaced two nautical miles apart, about six Type 96 carrier-based planes of the Naval Air Force were hovering over the aircraft carriers.
Suddenly, the planes spotted a dense array of incoming Chinese fighters, so two Type 96 carrier-based attack planes of the Chinese Navy Air Force began to dive towards the Kaga aircraft carrier, and the Type 96 attack planes began to fire signal flares at the aircraft carrier, and the searchlights on the aircraft carrier were suddenly lit up a few times, and the Type 92 20-mm air defense guns began to fire at the plane.
