94, a touch of the verge (above)
The planes dived almost vertically, swooping down like meteors on the surface of the British fleet.
Gao Zhihang felt that the blood in his whole body seemed to be burning, and the feeling of weightlessness made him lean forward, and he felt that self-help was like a moth laying a fire at the moment, and his mind was blank. The history of aggression against China by the great powers that has been constantly propagated in the military has come to mind one by one, especially Britain, which first launched the Opium War.
At this moment, under the momentum of this dive, Gao Zhihang instantly had a thought in his heart that he wanted to die with the enemy ship: crash into it, kill him, kill him!
"Watch the pull, watch the height!" The radio sound of the long plane was heard.
Gao Zhihang's heart was awe-inspiring, and he quickly pulled his handstick, and the plane almost flew over the head of the flagship of the British detachment, the "William," like a violent wind, and soon soared into the sky.
The huge air flow under the high-speed dive of the plane hit the flag of the "William" and the British naval officers such as Miller and the preparatory department, who were standing at the window door of the command cabin and staring at the plane, were pushed to the east and west by the huge air current, as if they had been landed by a 12-level typhoon.
"Ahh
In the middle of the sound, someone suddenly shouted madly: "I'm not dead, haha, I'm not dead, God forbid!" One of the naval staff officers seemed to be in a state of confusion, and when he realized that he was not dead, he jumped up and yelled.
Miller and York were also soaked in cold sweat all over their military uniforms, and as far as they could see, almost everyone was gasping, and everyone had a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe. They don't have to be laughed at by other sailors, they are officers, they are commanders of this fleet. The aftermath of the catastrophe does not give them a sense of rejoicing, because after experiencing this scene in person, they can feel more advanced and terrifying Chinese aircraft.
The fact that Chinese aircraft can dive and lift up at a near-vertical angle shows that Chinese fighters are not only agile and high-speed, but also extremely strong. If this had been replaced by European and American fighters, it would have fallen apart long ago. What is even more terrifying is that such a dive bombing at a super-large angle almost exceeds the upward firing angle of antiaircraft weapons, which shows that the anti-aircraft weapons of the attacked ship cannot effectively attack the attacking fighters, and the air defense must rely on other warships next to it, which greatly increases the difficulty of air defense. The most terrifying thing is that the Chinese fighters swooped down from a height of two or three thousand meters in an almost straight line, and that momentum could almost completely destroy the spirit and will of people.
Miller and York were both Iron Warrior officers of the British Imperial Navy who had been tempered by the Battle of Tereland, but their minds were almost broken just now, not to mention other ordinary sailors. Thinking of this, the hearts of the two of them were plucked out of the cold, and they finally understood a little why Ben's navy, which was known as the third in the world, was annihilated.
"Report to the commander, the Admiralty is in an emergency, the Prime Minister's Office has asked the fleet not to take the lead in firing, not to take a step back, and to continue its mission!"
York snatched the telegram from the communications staff officer, glanced at the staff officer, who was trembling all over, his face was pale, and his trouser leg was wet with a large patch, and waved his hand. At this moment, he felt as if the telegram was like a Hades post: "General, what should I do?" ”
Miller couldn't say a word for a long time, the corners of his mouth were trembling, and he didn't know whether he was angry or afraid, and the sweat on his forehead and face rolled down like he didn't want money. We didn't carry winter clothes, so I think we had to move around Hong Kong. ”
York looked at the staggered naval officers and soldiers, and then looked at the Chinese Air Force aircraft group hovering in the sky, and said with a bitter face: "But, General, do you think the officers and soldiers can still go north?" ”
Miller smiled reluctantly, "Morale is indeed a bit of a problem. Still, it's okay, singing can boost morale. ”
"England, please don't cry for me" As the tragic song sounded, more and more British naval officers and sailors of the fleet joined the chorus, and the whole fleet was like Jing Ke assassinating the king of Qin, the momentum of "the strong man is gone and will never return". The Royal Navy's fine traditions and centuries-old invincibility are on full display at this moment.
The fleet is still heading north, breaking through the wind and waves
The sound of "Dididi" telegraph continued to sound in the Ministry of Defense.
"What the fuck, the Brit are so kind." Wu Enemy's telegram from Chief of Staff Li Huashan was quite depressed.
But Li Bufan sat on the big chair next to the sand table, still as steady as Mount Tai, and he seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed.
Chief of Staff Li Huashan said: "Commander-in-chief, the maximum range of the Haiyan squadron is only 1,400 kilometers, and it can't stay for a long time. If an attack is not ordered, then only let them return. ”
"Come back!" Li Bufan responded lightly and smiled: "Britain is worthy of being the oldest number one power, and this pressure is not enough for them to retreat." However, this is also to be expected, and our breakthrough will still be on the French side. ”
Wu Di said unhappily: "Boss, do you just let the British go like this?" Let their fleet run around in the South China Sea? ”
"Of course not!" Li Bufan categorically denied it, and continued: "Telegraph to Li Haijun that under the condition that he does not take the lead in firing, no matter what method he uses, I must block the British Far East Fleet in the South China Sea." ”
Wu Di shouted dissatisfiedly: "Boss, I strongly recommend killing them directly, my China's territorial waters, in fact, they will come as soon as they say, can they leave?" If I don't kill these bitches, it's hard to extinguish the hatred in my heart. The dissatisfaction in his heart erupted like a volcano, just like in a certain period of history in later generations, the Republic was fully capable of crushing Xiao Yueben, but he spent a lot of time inking on the Diaoyu Islands, although he also took it back later, but he was unhappy and panicked.
"Soldiers, the great weapon of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked." Li Bufan leaned back on the big chair and said calmly, "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and our strategic layout in the southwest has not yet been put in place, so we will delay it first." You must understand that when we go to war and strategize, we must use the minimum cost to achieve the greatest results. In East Asia, we are the home field, and we can easily take the initiative and kill them as they want to play. ”
Wu Di was still very unhappy in his heart, and he somewhat understood that Li Bufan's strategy was basically the same as that of the later republic, and they both wanted to play the trick of "surrendering the army without a fight". But in his opinion, if you have the strength, you should shoot whoever you want? That's not in vain to cross a game, that's the crossing mode, and then his eyes rolled and said: "But the north? ”
Li Bufan said calmly: "Let the affairs in the north go first. ”
Wu Di shouted: "Why? The plan has been done and the preparation has been underway? Still put it on? ”
Li Bufan said: "As a general, he doesn't know the time of the day, he doesn't know the geography, and he is a mediocre talent." It is true that the snow and ice melt in April and May in the north, but the roads are muddy, which is not suitable for marching and fighting, let alone for the troops to advance at a high level. If the battle in the north is positioned as a local war, it is necessary to pay attention to the thunderous blow, and what we want is to be vigorous and overwhelming. ”
Wu Di opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while. He suddenly realized that his views on military affairs were unusually shallow, almost like an idiot. The battle to the north is to beat Soviet Russia and regain the lost territory to a certain extent, so it is necessary to play with momentum. And the purpose of this is to prepare for the south, if the north is pinned down and fights into a protracted war of attrition, then how can it fight in the south? If we do not drive the great powers out of the East, how can we achieve the grand plan of dominating East Asia?
------------
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nanjing was once again as noisy as a vegetable market, due to a sudden series of directives from China's Ministry of National Defense.
China's garrison in the southwest suddenly entered a state of combat readiness, and a large number of troops were mobilized to go south for "military exercises." The situation that had been rescued from the tense state suddenly became a rumor. You must know that China's garrison in Yunnan is as high as 500,000, such a huge number of troops are in combat readiness, and there are still a large number of troops going south, can it not make people's hearts flutter?
The British garrison in Burma and the French garrison on the Annam border cried out almost like a burning ass, because everyone could think with their toes that if the Chinese really attacked, their troops would not be enough to stuff their teeth, and the Chinese were still moving their troops south, and in their opinion, their strategic intentions were already obvious, and it should be said that they were trying to see the poor.
When the British and French political authorities received this news, they immediately called on the Chinese ambassador to question them, and at the same time immediately asked the Chinese ambassador to urgently contact the Chinese Foreign Ministry. The British and French ambassadors to China rushed to the Chinese Foreign Ministry in a hurry, and the embassies of other countries naturally followed in surprise.
The whole world knows that Li Bufan is a hardliner on the outside world, and the Chinese military is almost equivalent to Li Bufan's words, and his attitude towards abolishing unequal treaties is extremely firm and clear, as can be seen from the attitude of the [***] side towards the concession. For a military strongman like Li Bufan, there is nothing strange about really taking military action.
Due to geopolitical relations, the homeland of the great powers is too far and too far away from East Asia, so they are strategically inherently weak, and the pressure of China's millions of troops is like an insurmountable mountain pressing on the hearts of the great powers, and it can be said that the ambassadors of various countries live in horror every day, especially the garrisons of the British and French colonies bordering China, that day is simply like a year, they do not know when the millions of Chinese troops will suddenly kill, do not know when they will fall to the ground.
The great powers also understand that because of the huge gap in military strength in East Asia due to geopolitical relations, the so-called political skills and diplomatic means seem so pale and powerless at this moment.
-- Because Li Bufan was not afraid of war, he even wanted war, and he said in a beautiful name: I want to know the depth of the combat effectiveness of the national defense force he has built in modern times
