@@@@@@@@@

On the evening of 23 August, the situation in East Asia took a sharp turn for the worse, and there was even more silence in front of the National Assembly Building in Beijing. Everyone looked at Nobuyuki Abe, who looked stunned and uneasy, and the humiliation of being tricked rose in their hearts. Who swore a few minutes ago that they would not resort to force, and who said that South Sakhalin would be returned unconditionally? But everyone didn't know that Nobuyuki Abe was also extremely shocked at this moment. Although he was a pro-peace faction and did not approve of a war against China, he also knew that the big battalion had planned to attack China as early as the beginning of the year, and the navy's "Plan Z" had also been put into practice. It stands to reason that when there are still two days left before the plan, it is absolutely impossible for both the navy and the army to take the initiative to provoke, so there must be serious problems in such a sudden exchange of fire.

It was deliberately provoked by China? Or is it the unauthorized actions of the officers below?

Nobuyuki Abe didn't dare to linger for a moment, and quickly got into the car with his head lowered and in an angry gaze.

"I believe that within forty-eight hours the war will break out!" The Associated Press reporter, who had been very disappointed just a moment ago, suddenly became very excited and began to bet with his peers on the time when the war would break out. In his prediction, Gu Weijun and Chen Guofu had already rushed to the Ministry of National Defense. At the same time as the two car's car arrived at the door, the presidential motorcade also drove into the Ministry of Defense. Yang Qiu, dressed in a military uniform, asked Nobuyuki Abe about his speech at the Diet, and strode towards the conference room of the General Staff. As soon as he entered, all the high-ranking officers who had been waiting here stood en masse, and the velvet map on the wall was pulled open by the guards.

Yang Qiu nodded to everyone, put on his glasses for the first time, sat in front of the map closest to him, and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me the situation!" ”

Yue Peng stood in front of the map, his expression as calm as ever, and the whip pointed to the military deployment marked on the map: "The latest information." After sinking two Japanese destroyers and the coastal defense ship Iwate, the 15th Fleet had already moved towards the four northern islands, and Ji contained the Japanese Navy's Sixth Fleet and six heavy cruisers. Five hours ago, one of our submarines also spotted four Japanese aircraft carriers, four Kongo-class battleships, and eight heavy cruisers on Iwo Jima, and it is certain that this is a pretense to go to the Ogasawara Islands for exercises, preparing to sneak attack our main Japanese naval force! It is certain that they had already accelerated their arrival after receiving the report of the battle in the Soya Strait. According to the distance, it will take twenty-three hours to return. So now there are only six battleships, two aircraft carriers and some destroyers left around us from Sasebo and Naha, which is the best window period! On the part of the Army. The number of Japanese troops in Okhotsk and South Sakhalin has increased to 40,000, and about 10,000 Korean puppet troops and nearly 30,000 Soviet partisans who have been expelled by us and then absorbed by Japan have cooperated with them. Twenty divisions of the Japanese and Korean Army, which is the main force, have entered the dividing line between the north and the south of Korea and are ready for an all-out attack. There are also 20 reserve divisions in the process of assembling and mobilizing, six of which are Korean puppet army divisions. As of last night. The Japanese Army has assembled 40 divisions and regiments, two naval garrison brigades, and two tank wings in Korea, with a total of 530 aircraft of various types, more than 600 Type 97 tanks, more than 500 Type 1 tanks, and more than 800 other tanks. One of the more threatening tanks (unlike the historical ones) is the Type 1. This tank was developed to counter China's Type 31 tank, weighing 22 tons, equipped with a 45 times 75 mm tank gun, and threatening Type 25, Type 31 and other tanks. In addition, the Japanese Navy's Yokosuka Special Marine Corps and Sasebo Special Marine Corps have been assembled in Ryukyu and Miyakojima, with a total strength of more than 50,000 troops. It is equipped with amphibious tanks. The four army divisions stationed in the Ryukyus also showed signs of preparation, and a large number of ships were assembled in anticipation of a landing war against Taiwan Province of our country. Japanese troops in the Philippines, Khmer and Burma directions also entered combat readiness, and several large troop carriers appeared in Batavia. At least 20,000 Japanese troops and 50,000 Indonesian puppet troops were preparing to attack Borneo. In India, Nehru has officially announced this morning that he will join forces with the Indian Communist Party to form a coalition government to seek independence, and military independence is expected to be launched within a week at the latest.

In response to the sudden attack of the Japanese army. The Air Force's newly formed seven Tianquan fighter groups and territorial air defense units have already been stationed in Shanghai, Qingdao, Dalian, and other coastal cities. On the advice of the President, we have also established the East Asia Air Defense Command. The territorial air defense forces, coastal air force, radar, and naval reconnaissance ships were all handed over to the Air Defense Command for unified deployment, with Air Force Major General Mo Wannian as commander, mainly responsible for the defense of the soil and air from Miaojie to Qinzhou. The Navy will be responsible for the air defense of places such as Annam, Natuna, Minas oil fields in Sumatra and Borneo. As for the army, because we want to ensure the suddenness of the typhoon plan after it is launched, we have not carried out any mobilization or adjustment of the ground forces in the coastal front-line bases and in the northeast, north, and north of the DPRK, so there are only two infantry divisions of our army on the dividing line between the north and south of Korea, 10 infantry divisions of the DPRK army, and some independent units, and the 1st and 2nd armored divisions of the DPRK are also resting in Pyongyang. In terms of troop strength, we are at a disadvantage for the time being, and the most important Northeast Group Army currently has only five corps, with a total strength of less than 600,000 troops, and more than half of them are new recruits. So according to our deduction, once a ground war breaks out, it is expected that within two days the demarcation line between the north and south of Korea and Sakhalin Island will be lost, and within a week the Japanese army can advance under the city of Pyongyang! Therefore, half an hour ago, I ordered the Northeast Group Army and the National Guard to completely blockade China's border areas such as the Yalu River, Miaojie to Vladivostok, and the Liaodong Peninsula, and at the same time send two additional infantry divisions to Taiwan. Although our troops on the ground are temporarily insufficient, we are confident that we will hold out on both the northern and southern fronts until the end of September. As long as 20 divisions can be withdrawn from the northwest by the end of September, and 20 divisions can be provided at various recruit training bases across the country, the Japanese Army's ambition to dominate Asia will be completely smashed at that time!

Let me tell you a little bit about the typhoon plan.

The Typhoon Plan was an early military strike against Japan's attempt to attack our country. The main goal is to clean up the Japanese Navy ships and aircraft of Sasebo and Naha, which pose the greatest threat to our country, and the entire program will be divided into two parts. The first part will dispatch five strategic bomber groups, three medium-range bombing groups, four escort combat groups, and two naval aviation attack groups to raid the ports of Sasebo and Naha to strike at the living forces of the Japanese sea and air along the coasts of Ryukyu, Korea and Kyushu, and it is expected that the first phase of the operation will last twenty-four hours, and 7,912 sorties are planned! At present, these units have been secretly stationed at second-tier airfields and have completed preparations for war. The second phase will focus on the Japanese-controlled islands of Guam and the Mariana Islands. The ultimate goal is to occupy and use this as a base to cut off the connection between Japan and Turkey and overseas occupation territories. At present, the assault force and long-range air support force are in place, and the 23rd Squadron of the Second Fleet has also been stationed in Penghu, and they have two aircraft carriers, two battleships, three heavy cruisers, five light cruisers, and 17 destroyers, and will join the rapid supply fleet that departs for Fengshan (present-day Kaohsiung) tonight. After breaking through the Bass Strait, they will first make a feint towards the Ryukyus with the island of Taiwan, and assume a posture of a decisive battle with the main Japanese force returning to the division. As soon as the main force of the Japanese fleet was discovered, they would immediately turn around and head south, and while the main force of the Japanese navy was being dragged to the southeast, they would support the assault force to seize Guam and other islands. ”

Yue Peng put down the whip. Glancing at the map, he smiled: "The actions of the 15th fleet will definitely catch the Japanese government off guard." Yama Fifty-six deliberately went around to the Ogasawara Islands to confuse us into carrying out a sneak attack, but it became an embarrassing situation in which the main force could not come back. In addition, the six heavy cruisers chasing the 15th fleet did not have time to turn around, and everyone would think that we were not ready, and it would take at least two to three days to start. So tonight's day must be messy! At this time, we will rush to the front to raid, and it will definitely surprise them! ”

"It's a pity that there are only six battleships, and Nagato can't hit it for the time being when he's hiding in Yokosuka, and the main force is not there." Wang Zhengting shook his head regretfully. I thought it would be better if the main force of the Japanese navy should be all over so that the war could end in a few months. Yang Qiu also felt a little pity in his heart, but this was also a good thing, there were no elite Hainan Airlines pilots on the four main aircraft carriers. The strength of the air defenses of the Ryukyus and Sasebo will be greatly reduced. So he immediately looked at Chen Shaokuan: "When will it start?" ”

Chen Shaokuan had never been so excited, stood up and looked at his watch: "Report to the president, the first round of attack planes will take off in forty-two minutes." At half past eight tonight, the typhoon will make landfall in Sasebo on time! ”――

The military airfield on the outskirts of Jinan has been completely cordoned. Fifty-eight Hai H-7 and 24 double-headed Jiao night fighters with two auxiliary fuel tanks were already waiting on the runway, and each one was surrounded by air crew members for final inspection. As a technical officer of the air-dropped torpedo, Qiu Han inspected the last Hai H-7. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he quickly got into the long plane with the lead. "Qiu Han. Isn't that right? If your dad finds out, I'm doomed. Seeing his friend get into his plane, Captain Gao Zhihang in the cabin suddenly had a sad face.

"Okay, okay, isn't it just going to fly around the sky? Besides, the heavy air-dropped torpedo was proposed by me, always to see the actual effect, in case there is a problem you can solve? Qiu Han waved his hand recklessly, sat down in the bombardier's position, and tied himself up with his seat belt. Seeing the navigator wearing a headset, he asked, "By the way, who will attack first?" ”

"Lianyungang's Rolling Thunder Squad. They are few in number and noisy, so as long as there is no radar every day, they will not be detected until at least in the sky over Sasebo. ”

"Rolling thunder? Is it a radio-guided bomb squad? How did you come up with such a name. By the way, it's night, can they see the target? Of course, Qiu Han knew about the radio-guided bomb, because it was the secret weapon he reminded Bing to use.

"There's moonlight tonight, and the sight should be fine. Even if it doesn't, it's fine, the Air Force guys will drop flares in advance. Gao Zhihang checked the instrument, looked up at the flight clock above his head, turned on the night flight light casually, and then nodded to the radio navigator: "It's time." ”

"Tower, tower. Here is the Wild Boy squadron, ready, requesting to take off. ”

"The fighter takes off in ten minutes, you follow behind, I wish you a smooth and triumphant journey."

"Roger, wild boy receiving."

After the tower replied, the 58 Hai Bang 7s started their engines one by one. Ten minutes later, twenty-four night combat double-headed Jiao took the lead in the air, and all of them were ace pilots who had just been transferred back from the northwest. For them, who have been playing for almost a year, the night is simply heaven. When the last double-headed Jiao also left the ground, Gao Zhihang released the brakes and began to accelerate. Fifteen minutes later, all 82 warhawks of the Wild Boy squadron were safely lifted into the air. "Maintain altitude, dense formation, and advance at cruising speed to the airspace of the predetermined target." After the group climbed to an altitude of 5,000 meters, the group began to form a formation. The double-headed Jiao was on the periphery, and Hai Bang Qi was in the inner circle, forming a spindle-shaped dense formation, and flew eastward under the cover of night like a ghost.

At the same time, second-tier airfields such as Hefei and Dalian were released at the same time, and more than 10 attack squadrons rushed towards their respective targets
