Air attack is a new means of warfare that emerged and developed rapidly with the use of aircraft in warfare. In World War I, the use of aircraft for air strikes has become a regular combat activity for both warring sides.

However, due to the limitation of the number and performance of aircraft, the scale of the air attack and the power of the assault are not large. However, it is precisely this means of warfare that has been fully recognized, and it seems that all countries have invested a large amount of money and expenses in the development of aircraft.

In contrast, the government of the Republic of China, which is currently in the midst of a passive war of resistance, has even formed an air force. Even, in the early years, the Northeast Army produced its own aircraft. But all this came to a complete end with the September 18 incident.

Originally, the best way to deal with air raids was to send planes to carry out air interception to prevent the enemy from launching air strikes against our important targets. But neither the Central Army nor the Eighth Route Army have this condition.

Knowing that the Japanese army sent nearly 100 planes to take off from Shijiazhuang and fly straight to Yan'an, He Zhengdao and many military and political leaders seemed to have expected it. It's just that I didn't expect the scale of the little devil's first bombing to be so large.

As a member of the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao, who commanded a classic air defense battle, is undoubtedly the best candidate for commander. The most important thing is that the troops responsible for Yan'an's air defense were also taught and formed by He Zhengdao.

Listening to the sound of the sirens resounding in the sky in Yan'an City, He Zhengdao also said in a timely manner: "Chairman, commander-in-chief, you should also go into the air-raid shelter for a while!" Here, just leave it to me and Senior Commander Chen to be in charge. ”

'Go to the bomb shelter, and I'll stay here with you!' ’

Faced with Mr. Zhu's refusal. He Zhengdao said very seriously: "Commander-in-chief, for the sake of safety. You have to go into the bomb shelter with the chairman. Regarding the guard system of the guard division, you signed it. At all hours. Your safety comes first.

Not only you, but even the entire headquarters organ at present, must enter the bomb shelter. The transfer and resettlement of these people also requires two people to watch. Before the air raid is over, you can't even stand outside and watch the battle.

Chairman, according to the information provided on the telegram, it can basically be confirmed that the air raid was carefully planned. It can even be concluded that it is in Yan'an City or the surrounding area. There is an intelligence station for little devils.

In order to ensure your safety and that of all the heads of headquarters, I hope that you will cooperate with us. Fire and water are merciless, bombs fall from the sky, and no one knows where it will fall. Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case! ”

'Good! Forget it, boss! Leave this to them! Let's go hide for a while! ’

Just as the two were about to leave, He Zhengdao said again: "Zhu Yue, the safety of the chairman and the boss will be all in charge of you." The bombing did not stop before. They can't be allowed out of the dugout. Remember! ”

'Yes, Commander! ’

Hearing this, Mr. Zhu also laughed and scolded: "You kid, you are getting bolder and bolder." Do you dare to send troops to detain me and the chairman? ”

'Commander-in-chief, I don't dare! But for your safety. I had to do it. Afterwards, as long as you are safe and sound, you can punish me as much as you want. Even the division commanders who attended the meeting. You also need to give orders to the chairman.

The scale of this Japanese bombing must not be too small. And I don't dare to keep it. The little devils prepare only some ordinary aerial bombs. So, to make sure it's safe. You must take refuge in the bomb shelter at the station.

Even after entering the bomb shelter, I want you to have a gas mask with you. If the little devil really throws poison gas bombs, hiding in a bomb shelter may not work, and I hope that the two leaders can support our work. ’

Mao Taizu, who heard this, frowned and said, "The little devil still dares to do this?" ”

'Chairman, they dare to do that kind of thing in Nanjing. Who can guarantee that they won't do such a thing? What's more, since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, have the little devils used poison gas bombs less?

If there is any urgent news after the air raid starts, I will report it to you by phone. In any case, before the air raids are over, I would like to ask the leaders not to go out of the bomb shelters. ’

After some explanation, Zhu Yue quickly brought Mao Taizu and Mr. Zhu into the stable air-raid shelter that had been built before. This bomb shelter, dug specifically for the central organs, can even withstand the bombardment of ground-penetrating bombs.

The entrance to the air-raid shelter is built halfway up the hill and is reinforced with steel and cement. Inside, there is even a room dedicated to resting. After the air raid siren sounded, the various ministries and organs that were working quickly evacuated according to the rehearsal.

As for the commanders of the divisions who came to the meeting, they were also invited by the officers and men of the guard division to take refuge in this most fortified air-raid shelter. Seeing such a strong air-raid shelter, all the division commanders were a little surprised.

When the various organs in Yan'an also went to the nearest air-raid shelter to take refuge, He Zhengdao looked at Chen Geng, whose expression was still a little serious, and said: "Old chief, there is no need to be in such a hurry. We are not defenseless against the air raids of the little devils. ”

'Then don't worry!' With so many planes bombing, our air defense forces are simply not enough! ’

Although currently in Yan'an, the guards have an anti-aircraft battalion armed with anti-aircraft machine guns, and also an anti-aircraft battalion armed with anti-aircraft guns. But for such a large batch of aircraft, two air defense battalions simply did not work.

As a result, He Zhengdao, who heard this, said with a wry smile: "Old chief, as far as our current equipment is concerned, unless it can be equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft artillery. Otherwise, even if there are two more air defense battalions, we will not be able to stop the Japanese bombing.

Send a telegram to the Extended Garrison Brigade to alert them to the air. As soon as you notice the appearance of the Japanese machine, send us a telegram. When the time came, the guard division was ordered to start burning wet wood to make smoke outside the city of Yan'an.

How the Japanese wanted to carry out precision bombing, they could only reduce the altitude. When the time comes, let our anti-aircraft machine guns attract the fire of Japanese fighters. As long as the Japanese fighters carry out an ambush attack, then the anti-aircraft artillery battalion will carry out a surprise attack.

As long as I can clean up the fighters who are protecting the bombers, I will let this bomber formation have no return. Send a telegram to the Yulin Air Force Brigade and order the Air Force Brigade to prepare for battle. Fighter formations, ready to take off at any time! ”

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Chen Geng said in surprise: "You still want to completely annihilate the Japanese bomber formation?" ”

'Yes! Could it be that if they are allowed to bomb, we can only endure it? This time, I will use the anti-aircraft machine gun battalion for the Japanese bomber formation. Let the anti-aircraft battalion be ready for a bloody battle!

If the Japanese army is not taught a profound lesson, it is believed that this kind of air raid will be annoying in the future. As long as this bomber formation is interrupted, it is believed that the Japanese army will not be able to organize a second round of such bombing in a short time.

No way, if I have enough air force at my disposal, I won't let them into the airspace of our base area at all. What can be done now is to hope that they can be hit hard at the least cost. ’

Along with Chen Geng's suggestion of He Zhengdao to the two air defense battalions, the officers and men of the anti-aircraft machine gun battalion also knew that a tough battle would follow. But as an air defense force, they are usually very idle, and now it is finally their turn to go to the battlefield.

As for the anti-aircraft artillery unit, Ho Zhengdao also ordered the artillery instructors assigned to the guard division to take charge of the command. Even the eighteen Surothong 20-mm anti-aircraft guns of the anti-aircraft artillery battalion were divided into three anti-aircraft gun positions.

As soon as the anti-aircraft machine guns opened fire and lured the Japanese fighters down, the anti-aircraft gun positions carried out cross-fire strikes. I believe that at that time, it was not so easy for Japanese fighters to escape even if they wanted to.

The air force of the Eighth Route Army, which solved the fighter planes that served as bomber protection and finally rushed to support, believed that the Japanese bomber formation would be severely damaged. When bombers and fighters compete in the air, fighters undoubtedly have more advantages in aerial combat.

Some time ago, the Air Force Brigade that robbed Yangmingbao Airport has also improved its strength a lot. These pilots are somewhat unwilling to let them stay in the rear for training. And the effect of their training, He Zhengdao has paid attention.

Under the same fighter, I dare not say that I can be one-on-one with the Japanese pilot. But two to one or three to one, He Zhengdao feels that there is still a chance to win. The most important thing is that if training alone does not engage in actual combat, the Air Force will not be able to grow either.

Regarding He Zhengdao's decision, Mr. Zhu on the phone was also very worried: "Xiao He, are you sure that our air force can come in handy now?" You know, if we lose one, we will lose one! ”

'Commander-in-chief, if we don't teach the little devils a profound lesson this time, there will be more such bombings in the future. As long as the little devil is hit hard this time, I believe that the next time the little devil carries out a bombing, we must think about the consequences.

The most important thing is that the pilots of the Air Force Brigade train very hard in peacetime, and their desire to fight is also very strong. Right now, the little devils have flown into our central station, and if we don't let them fight, I'm afraid they will be emotional!

Although in the next air battle, there is a possibility that the plane will be destroyed and people will be killed. But I still hope that through this air battle, the people in the northwest will know that the air force of our Eighth Route Army still dares to fight with the little devils. ’

In fact, He Zhengdao knows better than anyone that these planes captured by the Eighth Route Army are golden lumps in the eyes of many people. But in reality, it won't be long before these planes are obsolete.

In the future, the main fighter of the Japanese army, the Type Zero, is the protagonist, and at present, these captured Japanese fighters are not enough to see in front of the Type Zero. It is precisely because of this that He Zhengdao hopes to use these planes to fight in actual combat.

If there is no fighter that can compete with the Zero in the future, the air force of the Eighth Route Army in the future can only continue to hide. Even, if you want to find an opportunity to fight in the future, it is estimated that it is unlikely.

It's just that these things can't be said in the right way. After all, he knew very well that the Air Force Brigade conducting training and training in Yulin had great expectations from the Central Committee and the General Headquarters. If the loss is too great, the central government and the headquarters will also be distressed! (To be continued.) )
