It's all over. There is no hope. The pathetic Combined Fleet, the pathetic navy, and the pathetic empire have been completely disintegrated in two days and two nights of naval battles in the Pacific.

Sugimoto Mizusawa Nakasa held a hibiso tree with both hands and slammed his head into the trunk frantically. The hibiscus tree shook with his shaking, and the branches rattled. Next to Sugimoto, is Second Lieutenant Kobayashi Tawen. Kobayashi stared blankly at the rain-clouded sky, and slammed his fist against the moss on the stone slab in grief.

After all, the facts cannot be concealed. The losses of the Combined Fleet in the Battle of the Pacific were reported one after another, and a picture of a crushing defeat was quickly pieced together. Sugimoto, who had personally participated in the battles of Midway, Santa Cruz, and the Marianas, knew how to analyze the actual situation through the false reports of the Japanese base camp. He was convinced that the Japanese Navy was completely finished.

Sugimoto escaped from the Marshall Islands with all his life. He was one of the few people to escape the hellish island. Vice Admiral Obata received him and told him that the battle of the Marshall Islands was almost hopeless, and hoped that he would report the defense deployment of the Marshall Islands to the base camp so as to provide a basis for the future defense of the islands by the Japanese army.

There were also several planes on the Marshall Islands airport, most of which were cleverly camouflaged to escape the bombing of Chinese warplanes and the shelling of Chinese warships. Shanmu chose a land-attack bomber. Because he was going to fly at night, he picked the best magnetic compass from several planes and loaded it onto that plane. The ground crew filled in the runway as much as they could. He gritted his teeth and took off from the bumpy runway with several important Japanese intelligence officers and family members.

He was in the Ogasawara Islands to take a break and repair the bomber. The fall of the Marshall Islands and the Chinese army's large-scale attack on the Lane Islands were reported. He thought, it seems, Lieutenant General Obata has unfortunately hit.

Sugimoto was very sad. This is a judo match with a huge disparity in strength. Japan is an island country with a population of 70 million against China with a population of 600 million. Steel. The level of oil and industry cannot be compared, and the bitter fruit of suicidal actions due to overconfidence is eaten by the people and soldiers.

The plane eventually landed at Miyazaki Air Base on the main island of Kyushu. Nakagawa had already reported the list of people on board to the Southern Army Command. As soon as Sugimoto Nakasa got off the plane, he was retained by Vice Admiral Takijiro Onishi, commander of the First Air Fleet. Onishi's subordinates had just arrived at the Miyazaki base from the Ogasawara Islands, and most of them were novices, and on their way back, they were hit hard by Chinese carrier-based aircraft. Shocked.

Onishi desperately needs veterans like Sugimoto to train his newcomers. Therefore, he tried his best to retain Sugimoto, and his sincerity was very touching. Sugimoto gave Obata charts and Nakagawa's letters to his companions, and stayed at the Miyazaki base.

The battle is getting tighter. Sugimoto hurried to train new pilots. Most of them were young students, and Sugimoto had met this kind of person when he was on Linga Island. It's no surprise that I've seen it for a long time.

It's just that among the pilots, there is a young Shigong named Kobayashi Tawen. The technology is good. Caught his attention. Kobayashi was only twenty-three years old. It turned out to be a student studying mechanics at the Higher Institute of Technology. After the start of the war, he dropped out of his studies and joined the Naval Aviation.

Kobayashi is very good at maneuvering the plane, and his culture is slightly higher than that of other pilots. "If it weren't for the war. He'd be a good engineer! Sugimoto thought, because Kobayashi spoke Chinese well and knew the performance of Chinese fighters and Chinese warships very well, Sugimoto often chatted with Kobayashi.

In view of the possible offensive of the Chinese army, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters formulated the "Jie" battle plan. The word "Jie" takes the meaning of "reporting victory", and it is divided into four for the different attack directions of the Chinese army: Jie-1 - Ogasawara Islands; Jet-2 – Minami Kyushu; Jet 3 – Japan; Jet-4 - Hokkaido, Kuril Islands.

It was this "Jet-1" plan that would use all the remaining ships of the Combined Fleet and all the planes on the main island of Kyushu to be used in the most crucial battle to defend the Imperial Kingdom.

Although China began to attack, the Japanese army still had formidable strength, the shore defense artillery hidden underground, the Japanese sailors who were skilled in gunnery, the thousands of planes on more than 70 airfields around the main island of Kyushu, and the decrepit Lieutenant General Saito, who was many times stronger than the decrepit Lieutenant General Saito.

I heard that China's aircraft carrier forces have already suffered huge losses in naval battles, so it would not be too difficult to use such a large number of naval and air forces to deal with them, so there will not be more than 10 fleet aircraft carriers that actually appear off the coast of Kyushu Island.

Even if it is difficult, it must be overcome. Because if the main island of Kyushu is lost, Japan will perish.

The Battle of the Pacific Ocean was an indelible shame for the Japanese Navy. The intelligence of the Japanese nation has declined, its energy has dried up, its thinking has become confused, its will has collapsed, its confidence has been shaken, its skills have become rusty, and the soul of Yamato has been dimmed. What should be lost is lost, and what is deserved is lost.

The huge ships that had been built at the expense of the Japanese people were so vulnerable to the attack of the air force that they seemed to be target ships made of plywood and horse dung paper.

So, isn't it the same with the old American ships?!

An era of aircraft dominating the battlefield has finally arrived. There is no one who can feel the breath of the new era more than Sugimoto, a veteran of carrier-based aircraft. It's a pity that the war has already been lost.

Now, what can be done is to let the Chinese group of Chinese pigs appreciate the power of Japanese pilots.

However, for this group of "young chicks" who made a fool of themselves in the battles of the Marianas and the Marshall Islands, it was simply impossible. Chinese warships are real beasts of steel, and they will easily devour their young lives.

His cadets are such a superfluous bunch!

Sugi looked up at the rat-gray clouds over the Miyazaki base. The roar of engines was heard above the clouds, and one or two Chinese fighter jets broke out of the low clouds from time to time and strafed several concrete runways at the Miyazaki base. The airport was empty, and there was nothing but a few broken planes that had been broken. Artemisia grass is over the knees, puddles are dotted, and a group of frogs are noisy, a scene of desolation.

Kobayashi suddenly stopped sobbing. He asked the fir wood;

"Did you fly on the 24th?"

"Nope. I had dysentery that day. The main island of Kyushu has many endemic diseases. I pulled it 12 times a day, and I still had chills. Playing a pendulum, eating Jinna cream is not useful. ”

Kobayashi raised his eyebrows, "Sugimoto Nakasa, do you know the story of Major General Arima?"

"I've heard about some. However, I have been in the Navy Air Corps for a long time, and the Army Air Corps is quite vague. The Navy never cares about the Army."

Kobayashi began to speak. He had poor eyesight and had to wear glasses to fly in the sky, and because of the serious loss of pilots, people like him, who could never even dream of flying an airplane, became pilots. Usually his eyes are habitually squinted.

"Major General Masayoshi Arima, like Major General Kato, was Japan's first aviation officer. They flew thousands of hours on biplanes. and participated in the formation of the Japanese Army Air Corps. They are all heroes in the history of Japanese aviation. Rear Admiral Kato after Malaya was shot down by a British plane and died. Among the old pilots, there are only a few people left such as Arima. ”

Sugimoto recalls that Arima had met him at Atsugi Airport and was not busy. Arima gave him the impression that he resembled a postman. Or the old village policeman. In a word. He seems to be a humble man. The beard is cleanly shaved, the lips are quite thick, and the mouth is quite broad; You're a good dad. The officer's hat was a little larger on Arima's head. But. He has a straight waist and a long neck, and he is very energetic.

"General Arima has shot down fifteen British and American planes!"

Kobayashi continued: "My flight instructor, Iida Shaosa, is a member of the former 26th Air Force. He worshipped Arima very much. When I first came to the main island of Kyushu, I was assigned to the Arima Army. He personally gave us lectures and demonstrations, and gave us particularly serious lectures on the performance of enemy planes and the characteristics of pilots in the Chinese army. 'Now you are lazy, and you will pay with blood when you go to heaven.' He added: 'The Air Force is a branch of the armed forces that rely on ordnance and technology, and pilots must be given the utmost imagination.' The situation in the air is changing rapidly, how can you memorize the rules!' We young people all regard Shogun Arima as a mentor and father. "Next, Xiao Lin's voice changed a little." On the day of the Pacific naval battle on 24 July, the Chinese Third Fleet assembled in the waters north of Leyte Island. The sky was cloudy, there was rain, and the cumulus clouds were thick. I, Captain Kuroshima, and Rear Admiral Arima, a total of 26 Zeros, covered 12 land bombers to attack the Chinese fleet.

"We found the mobile fleet of the Chinese army three hundred nautical miles south of the Ogasawara Islands. General Arima decided to concentrate on attacking one of them. Our lesson in the past is to attack several enemy ships at once, and as a result, not one can be sunk. ”

Sugimoto had to nod in agreement.

"We selected a Chinese First Emperor-class mothership, divided it into four teams, and attacked from its two sides in turn. The fighters of the Chinese army pounced down and bit us to fight, and the artillery fire of the frigates was also fierce. Just two minutes later, half of the bombers and fighters were shot down, and we couldn't even get into the bombing positions. ”

Sugimoto remembered the scene of the Battle of the Marianas with sadness, and he was not surprised that this situation occurred.

"The enemy's naval guns and anti-aircraft guns were precise and fierce, and the radio fuses had already aroused our sense of fear. The pilots of the enemy planes were so entangled with us that they risked being hit by their own guns. If we continue like this, we will all die sooner or later, and we will find nothing. We are not afraid of death, but it is worthless. There is a slogan in the army, 'Seven lives serve the country', that is, one life for seven lives. We need to at least 'exchange one plane for one ship'!"

"General Arima passed through us, and his Zero flew straight at the Chinese aircraft carrier, and we still don't even remember the number of this aircraft carrier. We were all stunned, he had neither bombs nor torpedoes, did he use machine guns to strafe that 30,000-ton aircraft carrier?'

"Although General Arima is usually lenient to his subordinates, he is a depressed person, and he is far more silent than laughing. He was the oldest of the warriors, the Satsuma samurai, but he lived a very modest life, spending all his time studying military affairs and tactics. He sent the signal that "the empire is rising and falling, and all the personnel will do their duty in this battle", that is, the signal of Admiral Togo in the Battle of Tsushima, shook his gear, passed through the blocking fire of the Chinese aircraft carrier, and crashed straight into the base of the enemy's island-shaped building. In retrospect today, General Arima meant that we should follow his example and die with the enemy ships. ”

"What happened to that Chinese aircraft carrier?"

"Oh! Arima hit its vital point. It set fire and black smoke rose to a height of seven hundred meters. The hull shook violently and staggered out of the battlefield. The last time I flew over it, the Chinese army had already extinguished the fire. I could see that its conning tower had been completely destroyed. There were corpses lying on the deck, and more than a dozen planes were damaged. The general destroyer is rescuing people on the port side. Then her massive enemy ship gradually tilted...... We fools with no imagination. If everyone had followed the example of General Arima, they would not only have been able to sink the aircraft carrier, which had finally escaped with the wreckage of Arima's plane and the bones of the general, but would have multiplied the results of the naval battle several times, and the people would not have been so arrogant. ”

Xiao Lin stretched out his little finger to the triumphant Chinese fighter in the sky, and scolded with a grunt,

Sugimoto almost blurted out, "What's the hurry, isn't there a chance to do it next time!"

Kobayashi was a little surprised: "Use a plane with a bomb to ram an enemy ship......"

"Exactly." Sugimoto calmly explained, "Actually, this kind of thinking has long existed among our naval pilots. For a carrier-based pilot, landing on a ship is an extremely dangerous thing to do, even more than bombing an enemy warship.

Think about it: landing on an undulating platform the size of a bathtub. There is a cross wind. The mothership had to make various maneuvers in order to avoid torpedoes and enemy aircraft. Our planes are riddled with bullets. Some of them had failed to maneuver, and the people were exhausted and even wounded, that is, they landed on army airfields with good runways; It's also a very difficult thing to do. And. We're mostly running out of fuel. It is not possible to pull up and fly twice. Hang the blocking cable with a tail hook on a 30-meter runway. I think the acrobatic performers in Hibiya Park are only worthy of being our apprentices!

"So, after the naval battle lost those veterans. Novices often say, 'I'd rather die on an enemy ship than die unjustly when I land.' At that time, we naval aviation often thought that if we could ram an enemy ship with a bomb, we would die a heroic death like the samurai of Ryonosuke Tada. Do you know how many planes we lost in this naval battle? Two thousand three hundred and seventy. Even if seventy of them were used to ram the enemy ships, the Chinese fleet would be finished. Sugimoto finally said, "Anyway, it's better to die, it's better to carry out a special attack." It's like that elusive missile in China! ”

At this time, an American-made jeep ran through the wild grass at the Miyazaki base and drove to the end of the runway. It circled half a circle towards Sugimoto and Kobayashi, and when it was twenty meters away from them, it braked on the ground, and out of it came a man in a white admiral's uniform.

"Ah, Lieutenant General Onishi, hello!" Sugimoto greets the visitors. Kobayashi whispered, "He's a celebrity who planned the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor!"

They gave a military salute to the lieutenant general, and then, respectfully, they stood. Onishi has broad shoulders and a slightly forward chest. He was a proud man, outspoken, full of talent and drive. It was he, at a moment that was considered unimaginable by the general public, that he categorically proposed the use of aviation attack tactics to attack Pearl Harbor, and achieved complete success.

Onishi had made outstanding achievements in the war, but his promotion was very slow, and he only became the commander of the First Air Fleet until now, and before he could take office, the First Air Carrier was changed to the Fifth Base Air Force, which was under the command of the First Lieutenant General of the Mikawa Army. Although Mikawa was a hero in the naval battle of Savo Island, he was empty-handed, and after he handed over Shima's Penghu fleet to Nishimura, he did not even have a single destroyer on hand. He could only command Onishi and Furushi, who was the commander of the Second Air Fleet.

Cedar is very familiar with Onishi and knows him well. Onishi is full of innovative ideas, but he doesn't know how to meet the horse, and he doesn't understand the trick of the ups and downs of the sea. He is too aggressive, sharp, thinks too highly of himself, and does not know etiquette, which sometimes makes his boss unable to get off the stage. However, his talent and resourcefulness are recognized by the world, and middle and lower-level officers such as Zosugimoto and Kobayashi simply admire Onishi.

Onishi approached the two of them and moved his lips: "Let's talk casually, Sugimoto-kun, Kobayashi-kun." Oh, smoke. He took out a box of hardcover Manila cigars and gave one to Kobayashi and Sugimoto. He took one himself, bit off the cigarette butt, and lit it himself and smoked it. Kobayashi and Sugimoto didn't bring matches, so they lit the fire with the help of Onishi's smoke. Onishi's behavior was a bit odd.

Onishi's face was gloomy, and he said bluntly: "You all know the outcome of the Pacific naval battle. ”

The two nodded tearfully.

Onishi became agitated, and the cigarette of his cigar shook in his hand.

"The combined fleet, which was built with so much money from the people, is completely reimbursed like this, navy! Always remember this shame. ”

Sugimoto listened, forgetting to smoke. The smoke was extinguished, and he held it in his hand.

Onishi looked at Sugimoto: "Sniff, Sugimoto-kun is from the navy, and I am also from the navy." There's no time to talk about the Navy. Before the war, I carefully studied our navy and the enemy's navy as well as the enemy's navy. Our Navy is excellent. In the three and a half centuries since the Imjin War, it has been fighting well. It's useless to say this!"

Onishi dusted off the ashes vigorously. He tosses the matchbox to Sugimoto. He actually carefully saw that Sugimoto's smoke was extinguished. He wasn't usually so careful.

"But, contrary to the incompetent navy, my pilots have achieved great successes. Senior Captain Seki Xingnan commanded four planes and simultaneously attacked three Chinese aircraft carriers off Samar Island, two of which were severely destroyed. The Chinese aircraft carrier that Captain Guan attacked had a big explosion, the flames were 300 meters high, and it sank in just 20 minutes. He is much more powerful than the Yamato. You know, they rammed the enemy ship. ”

The three of them were silent for a few seconds, and Suzuki didn't know what to say.

"One life for eight hundred lives. An aircraft was exchanged for an aircraft carrier. I told Lieutenant General Nagumo about this method earlier. I also said it with Admiral Koga, and I also said it with Admiral Toyoda, but no one paid attention to it, thinking that it was an immoral tactic. They're good. Very ethical. As a result, the battle was lost. Wars are only won and lost. There is nothing morally immoral. "Onishi has his own logic.

Sugimoto said indignantly, "This should have been done a long time ago!"

Lieutenant General Takijiro Onishi threw away half of his cigarette butt and took out another cigarette to smoke, and he talked about this history excitedly. The Chinese plane flew in the clouds. The "cooing" sound of machine guns seemed to punctuate the story of Lieutenant General Onishi.

"After the Battle of Guadalcanal, the heavy losses of the Navy were slowly revealed, and the officers and men of the Navy discussed that there was only hope for war if they used planes with bombs to ram the ship. Because China has a vast land and endless resources, for them, people are more precious than warships, and we are the opposite.

The Battle of the Marianas, in which Sugimoto-kun personally participated, is a shame for the bombing skills of our new pilots! With 300 planes, we can't sink a single enemy aircraft carrier, and we can no longer afford to lose planes.

"Rear Admiral Hisao Obayashi, commander of the Third Air Fleet, and Eiichi Oshida, the captain of the carrier ship 'Chiyoda', reported to Nagano what was being discussed in the army. Sugimoto-kun, you know the people of Nagano Daisa, he is always the same age as him in this kind of thing, he is useless and indecisive when he is old. He didn't say anything about this plan, and just missed the opportunity again! Six hundred aircraft failed to sink a single enemy mothership. Next time I think that number will become a thousand. We were all content with the bragging reports of the base camp, and the planes that the people had worked so hard to produce were buried in vain, and no one died. My predecessor, Vice Admiral Teradoka, believed that ordinary tactics were no longer effective...... For the sake of victory, there is only one way to go.

As soon as I took office, I had only 300 planes of various types, some of which were still dual-ji. I ran around and found that only one in two would lift off, and it was a joke! With such a few broken planes, you can defend the main island of Kyushu and defend the Japanese Empire, and you don't believe it. Sugimoto-kun, so I'm going to deduct you from the draft training.

Rome wasn't built in one day. I didn't have time, I didn't have planes, I didn't have gas, the training was just going through the motions. Sugimoto-kun, I know you, and the students like Kobayashi know who can become an aerial veteran overnight like Mitsuo Fuchida on the Akagi or Toonaga Sho on the Wyvern. No! Soon after, I received the task of covering the operation of the Jet-1. I thought to myself that in less than two days, these planes would be exhausted over the archipelago. I think that instead of passively defending, we should directly attack the Chinese Pacific Fleet. Of course, we will never be as stupid as we used to be. We must carry out a special attack. ”

"Special attack?" Kobayashi and Sugimoto asked reflexively, in fact, they understood very well in their hearts.

"Even if you use a Zero to carry a 250-kilogram bomb, or to carry 500 kilograms in a gale, even one of our few orange blossoms, you can be stacked with explosives to ram an enemy ship."

Sugimoto and Kobayashi were silent. What they were thinking about, Onishi had already done, he was Onishi after all.

Onishi said with a sad face: "General Teraoka has planned all this, and even the plan and training tutorial have been compiled. He's gone, I'm coming. I had no choice but to follow his plan. I decided to organize a special assault team at once.

"The lords already know that the war situation is critical, and the Chinese army must occupy the Aleutian Islands and land at Ogasawara to invade the main island of Kyushu on a large scale. Our last fleet will be dispatched according to the scheduled 'Jet-1' plan to strike at the Chinese forces that may land on the Ogasawara Islands. Of course, the task of our aviation is to resolutely destroy the enemy's motherships so that they cannot attack our fleet. According to me. The only way to make the most of the air force is to use planes with bombs to ram enemy ships. ”

"I mentioned it at the Aviation Conference before, and the reaction was far more strong than I expected. As soon as I finished speaking, everyone rushed to die for His Majesty the Emperor. There is only one thing left, and that is what is the name of this death squad? I remember that General Nogi Noshinori used the 'death squad' on the 203 heights at the mouth of Arthur, and I don't want to repeat it. The word 'kamikaze' is recommended in the pig's mouth. That's great! Six hundred years ago, the 'kamikaze' blew over the Mongol armada and kept Japan. Today, the hot-blooded youth, with his body and spirit, will also blow over the fleet of the Shina people. Saving the Imperial State. I agreed right then. ”

Onishi talked about the scene of the first attack of the "kamikaze" special attack team:

November 25th. The dawn of a stormy Kyushu main island. The dawn illuminates the colorful wildflowers. In front of a cream-colored Spanish-style building, stands a group of "kamikaze" pilots; They were young men, with a fervent desire to die, and there was no fear in their eyes. Some of them were married; Someone has a fiancée. However, it doesn't matter. Many of their contemporaries have died in the service of the Empire. Nor do they covet their own lives. Although they did not fly a couple of take-offs and landings. The technology is very poor, and it is simply impossible to attack the heavily defended Chinese warships, but. Now they are shouldering the burden of defending the emperor.

Their short lives are like the bright, but fleeting, wildflowers. May the empire not forget these flowers.

The kamikaze team was divided into four squads: Shikishima, Yamato, Asahi, and Yamazakura, with a total of twenty-four pilots.

They had a hearty breakfast, left behind a fateful letter and relics, and even hurried to take a bath. As a soldier of the Empire, there is a possibility of dying in battle at any time. But death squads are another matter, special assault teams are a third thing. Fighters are dead and alive, daredevils will occasionally survive, and kamikaze members will definitely die. Death is his mission.

The thought of inevitable death makes them realize the beauty of life. They have lived too short in the world. They're studying, they're in love, and they don't even know what women are all about. They have also had all sorts of ideals, fantasies, and dreams. Who wants to die in their twenties?

Now, the emperor wants them to die, Japan wants them to die, and the commander wants them to die. Their brothers, from distant Port Moresby, Aleutian, Tarawa, Imphal, all the way to Leyte Gulf, have become ghosts. They will take revenge on the people of China.

But who sent them to these foreign lands that they had never even heard of? Brothers and sisters who were able to survive, while sympathizing with their sacrifices, shouldn't they condemn the bastard military department that started the war and threw the Japanese nation and other peoples into the sea of blood!

Onishi approached them, shook hands with them one by one, and then gave a speech. He said that he was going to board the plane with the special attackers. However, he still has to stay to encourage the next group of special attack fighters, so take a step back and ask everyone to wait for him in the kingdom of God.

Onishi, a sorcerer who performs hypnotism, generously stated: "Gentlemen, the Japanese nation is facing an eventful season. It is not important ministers, generals, military commanders, or veterans like me who can understand and share the national crisis. It is you who can bear the destiny of our motherland, and it is you energetic, innocent and pure young people. Therefore, on behalf of the Japanese people and the entire army, I implore you. I wish you all success. ”．

The more he spoke, the more emotional he became, his voice trembling, and he was embarrassed: "Gentlemen, you are already gods!" He is the most admired god of war by the Japanese. It is because you have become gods that you do not have a nostalgia for this filthy and miserable earth.

"If you have any wishes, then, I guess, you want to know that your attack has been paid for, and your only regret is probably this one. Because of his long sleep, he couldn't know about it. Rest assured, everyone. Although I cannot inform you, I will report it to Japan and His Majesty the Emperor as it is. Your exploits will be known throughout the world, and the souls of your kings will rest in peace.

"Guys, then please!"

After Daxi finished speaking, his eyes were full of tears, his throat whimpered, and he was almost embarrassed. He had to turn around, be silent for half a minute, then turn and walk up to each of the special attackers, and as vice admiral, bow deeply to each of them 90 degrees. The special attackers, who had never seen the world, were moved to tears.

The special attack team members began to put on flight suits, and they wore white ribbons with "Yamato Soul" on their heads. One by one, they said goodbye to the base commander and ground crew, drank a bowl of Japanese sake, and then stepped into the cockpit of the fighter plane. The mechanics had already hung a bomb on the pylons of the auxiliary fuel tanks and connected the safety device to the cockpit, and they specially told the pilots: "Don't forget to turn on the safety device before hitting the enemy ship!" ”

The "kamikaze" team member waved his hand. The mechanic helped them close the canopy. The engine porphyras sounded, and the plane climbed into the sky and flew east. They will never come back.

This is what happened when the first "kamikaze" special attack teams attacked.

Onishi Hanjiro looked at Sugimoto and Kobayashi with a strange expression, and his face was gloomy and suppressed with an emotion that only Sugimoto and other "old guys" could understand. He said:

"Commander Onishi's palace, let me also join the special attack team."

"The men of your second fleet are under the command of Vice Admiral Furufan, and Fuliufan and I have discussed the matter of the special attack team. He said that since Guan Xingnan and they did a good job, my people will be handed over to you. I don't dare to go against his will, Japan is in danger, and if it weren't for the heavy responsibility on my shoulders, I would have rushed straight to the enemy ship like General Arima, what a pleasure! It's a pity that I have to organize more people to defend the main island of Kyushu, the coast, and Japan, and this responsibility is heavier than death!"

"I'll do it for you." Sugimoto said.

And add me. Kobayashi also expressed his attitude anxiously.

"Thank you. You're welcome. With Sugimoto's air hero, the 'kamikaze' team will definitely hit the Shina people hard. ”

He patted Sugimoto on the shoulder: "You are worth more than a Chinese warship." Your mission is to take them to the skies of the enemy fleet, tell them all the flight data and technical essentials, then observe the impact and record the reasons for their successes and failures so that they can be used to train the next group of special attackers. Let our young people, one by one, go to the pinnacle of life, and the people of China will fall into the abyss of darkness. Behind the main island of Kyushu, there are Shikoku, Honshu, and Hokkaido. As long as we resist to the end, everywhere will become a cemetery for the Chinese. They will be afraid of our soldiers, of our youth. They paid a high price in blood, the safety of the motherland was guaranteed, and the sacred heart of His Majesty the Emperor was at peace. ”

"I see. Rest assured. The people of the second ship will not be worse than the first ship. Let's have a game. Sugimoto saluted Onishi. Onishi returned the salute and ran towards the jeep. At the door, he waved to Shanmu and Kobayashi again. "Please."

The jeep went away. Sugimoto thought: Onishi is really a resolute doer!

Sugimoto went to see Lieutenant General Fukuru Shigeru, who had already discussed with Onishi and instructed him to carry out the order to form a special attack team with Kobayashi.

Sugimoto is stupid and lets Kobayashi speak.

Kobayashi is an intellectual after all. He told the pilots about the history of Japan since Emperor Jimmu, about Japanese culture and religion, about the traditional spirit of the samurai in Japan, and about how such a great nation is in danger of extinction and that the only way to save Japan is to die with your lives. He sang the school song of Etajima Marine School:

We are cherry blossoms of the same period,

Angry at the Naval School.

"Man must die. Rather than survive under the rule of the Chinese people, it is better to die magnificently and become a military god admired by future generations. ”

The pilots were inspired and their emotions were very high.

Sugimoto re-stands in front of the queue:

"Gentlemen. I'm in the barracks tonight. If any of you would like to join the kamikaze, please come to my place individually. If he doesn't come, I'll keep it a secret for him. We just need people who don't have to worry about us, and you can do it all your will. Do you understand?" He asked aloud.

"Understood!" The pilots replied in unison, many with tears on their faces. (To be continued......)
