First Target Plane, December 31, 1943. ww．． co

As January 1, 1944, New Year's Day, was approaching, the people of the Yanhuang Continent on the first target plane were very different from the invading armies and their native nationals in various parts of the Japanese Invaders.

For the people of Yan and Huang, the importance of New Year's Day is much smaller than that of the Chūn Festival, which is only a product of Sun Yat-sen's inauguration as provisional president in Nanjing in early January 1912 for the purpose of "traveling in the summer and following the agricultural season, and then counting". Moreover, the Republic of China zhèngfǔ refers to New Year's Day as "New Year" and the first day of the lunar calendar as "Chūn Festival". Therefore, the common people themselves do not recognize the "New Year", most people still inherit the ancient customs, and value the "chūn festival" far more than the "New Year", and there are no markets, temple fairs and celebrations and other activities in the market, only zhèngfǔ institutions, schools and foreign-run foreign businesses and other large businesses have a one-day holiday, and their busyness at this time is more to buy materials and prepare food for the "chūn festival" on the first day of the lunar calendar.

Since the Meiji Restoration, in order to move closer to the Western powers in all aspects, the little devils have gradually diluted the practice of celebrating the New Year on the first day of the lunar calendar, which was inherited from the ancient Yanhuang period, and focused on strengthening the concept of the Western New Year on January 1. If there is no war, they will be held for three days from the 1st, and they will have to "worship the Buddha", eat "goza boiled", drink Tusu wine, taste herring roe, eat black beans and boiled small dried fish with a slightly sweet soy sauce, and of course, a series of celebrations.

Japanese native Tokyo.

At this time, the atmosphere here is a little strange, and the streets of Tokyo are full of people and traffic, and many shops on the street have set up promenade stalls outside their houses, displaying a variety of goods that are not rich due to the war: there are garden lamps made of wood, dark red sè meal boxes, wooden rolling pins with thin ends and thick middles, curtains made of straw, and rough but practical white bowls. All the scenes in the whole city are presented like a festival, but the strange thing is that the road is very quiet, and there is no laughter and noise that the festival rì should have. Men and women dressed in earthy brown cloth kimonos quietly and quickly pick out the items that are urgently needed at home, and frequently look at the sky, fearing that they will suddenly appear in the distance and bring destruction and fire to themselves (Stars and Stripes Bombers).

At the end of 1943, the city of Tokyo was already beginning to flourish, but it was still far from the appearance of the famous international metropolis of later generations. At this time, there were no skyscrapers in Tokyo and no subway system. Some are just a series of wooden bungalows and small buildings in a row. The road is also mainly dirt road, and there is no large-scale asphalt paving (except in the area near the palace), and the sea breeze suddenly rolls up a lot of sand and dust, choking the mouth and nose. A tall wooden telephone pole stands on the side of the road, next to which are planted a few thin saplings, bicycles, horse-drawn carriages, pedestrians on foot, etc., come and go, their clothes are relatively simple, generally only earth brown sè, green sè, gray sè several kinds of sè, so the overall composition of the city picture is also highlighted monotonous, boring, rigid and silent.

Yuki Endo, an employee at the Yamazaki Steel Works in Tokyo, has been on a rollercoaster ride of mindset over the past year. First of all, the cousin of His Majesty the Great Emperor, King Hengxian of Heyang Palace, was in Shaanxi Province on the Yanhuang Continent, and then the Red Party in Shaanxi swept through the Imperial Army at an incredible speed, occupied the northwest of the Yanhuang Continent, and occupied all the "territories" of the Empire north of the Yangtze River at the end of the year.

And then there is the five ** generals of Yamamoto, this god-like man. He shined in the midst of imperial crises, conquering Hawaii, New Zealand, and Australia with the Stars and Stripes, and annihilating the main force of the Stars and Stripes Pacific Fleet several times (exaggerated propaganda by the Japanese Mainland). This consolidated the Empire's territory in the western Pacific and basically cut off the possibility of a Stars and Stripes counteroffensive. But at this exciting moment, the enemy's sudden landing of high-altitude bombardment began. From a few dozen at the beginning to hundreds or thousands of planes a day, they are wreaking havoc in the skies over Tokyo without any scruples. Although the Imperial planes bravely killed the enemy, for some reason, more and more bombs fell into the city of Tokyo, especially the many flammable bombs, which caused the streets of Tokyo, where most of the wooden houses were located.

"I'm back!" Thinking about these messy things, Yuki Endo pushed open the door of his house.

"Endo-kun, welcome home!" Yuko Yoshikawa, who was putting on a hat and an apron, and dusting the house with a duster in her hand, replied.

"Father, welcome back. Can you take us to see the firefighters climbing the ladder now? Holding a wet cloth in hand, he shouted hello and pleaded with the three children who were sliding the door and the floor over the water. Every New Year, the people of the country will spontaneously form a procession and then walk down the streets with the national flag and the flag representing Fury, while the firefighters of the Wako zhèngfǔ department will take the initiative to join in, climbing the towering ladder to praise various difficult juggling skills, enhance the atmosphere of the festival, and remind people to pay attention to fire prevention.

"Not this year, the ladder climbing activity has been canceled." Yuki Endo shook his head.

"Nani? Why? The three children, who heard the bad news, asked depressedly. Since Yuki Endo is an employee of a steel mill and has a relatively high monthly salary, the children in the family still have relatively sufficient food and one or two decent clothes.

"A while ago, there were too many fires in various parts of Tokyo, and the fire brigade and gendarmerie have been constantly extinguishing fires day and night, and I heard that there are no physical performances anymore." Yuki Endo replied impatiently, "Okay, there will be a parade (horse convoy) coming over in a moment, you can go out with kites for a while." ”

"Hey!" Hearing something else, the three Japanese children ran outside the house.

After the children rushed out of the house, Yuki Endo asked, "Yuko, have you done the 'Ejikata'?" ”

On New Year's Day, Wako eat Ekatamaki, a thick sushi roll with seven special foods (dried zucchini, cucumber strips, mushrooms, eggs, eel, dried fish floss), which are the special foods eaten by the Wako people to welcome the chūn day. The word "Huifang" refers to the direction where the god of good fortune is located, that is, the direction of auspiciousness.

"Hey, I made some this year, but because of dried zucchini, cucumber strips, mushrooms, I can't find it, and the filling is only eggs, eel, and dried fish floss." Because she couldn't make up one of the ingredients that represented the Seven Lucky Gods, Yuko Yoshikawa was a little disappointed.

"Haha, it's okay, it's good to have it, tonight we will keep vigil together and pray for the longevity of the empire!"

"Hey!"

At the same time, the various units of the Japanese Dispatch Army, located south of the Yangtze River in the Yanhuang Continent, were also celebrating the New Year. However, since the defensive position is the first priority at this time, the taste of the New Year is much worse than that of the Japanese mainland.

The total number of troops dispatched south of the Yangtze River is about 600,000, and they have to defend the Yangtze River defense line of more than 1,000 kilometers and maintain the vast occupied areas of Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Jiangxi. Therefore, in the defense of the Yangtze River, they relied more on the strength of hundreds of gunboats and dozens of frigates sent by the navy into the Yangtze River, relying on them to take advantage of the disadvantage of the Yanhuanghong Navy, which was basically zero, plus several fortress heavy artillery groups in strategic points, in order to hold the entire Yangtze River defense line. However, in the end, the New Year is approaching, and the Yanhuanghong Party has not attacked, showing that it will not attack until next year, so the jǐng ring degree has been lowered in the end.

After evening, on the other side of the Yangtze River, the Yanhuang and Red Dang recovered the area.

I saw that from the newly built wide asphalt roads, there were convoys of army convoys and heavy artillery pieces of thick caliber, which were pulled by tractors and drove quickly to the artillery positions that had been calculated and predetermined long ago.

"Lao Tzu has finally waited for this day!" General Peng, commander-in-chief of the first column, sat in the rapidly moving armored command vehicle and said loudly.

"Mr. Peng is almost sick." Yan Kui, chief of staff of the first column, said with a smile.

"But no, in order to wait for the 800,000 new troops who are still in training to form combat effectiveness, we have delayed the battle of crossing the river for more than two months." Zhao Shoushan, deputy commander of the first column, also answered happily.

"This time, we are holding back our strength, several columns have a total of 1.5 million main forces that can be used for field warfare, more than 12,000 cannons, 9,000 tanks and armored vehicles of all kinds, more than 1,000 multiple rocket launcher vehicles, and enough reserves of base ammunition, hehe, enough to fight the little devil can't even recognize the." Zhang Zongxun, who is also the deputy commander, calculated.

"The meaning of zhōngyāng is very clear, in one go, he crossed the Yangtze River and hit all the way to Guangdong Province without dragging mud and water, and recovered the north of the Yangtze River with a devastating situation." Mr. Peng said with a serious face: "This is not only a battle of liberation and revenge, but also a battle of national rejuvenation." We must occupy the enemy-occupied area as quickly as possible and not give the bald party a chance, although we don't have to be afraid of him at all, but if we can die less compatriots, we will die less, and the comrades of the underground party south of the Yangtze River are ready? ”

"The Zhōngyāng Intelligence Office has sent a telegram confirming that the comrades over there are ready, and as soon as our comrades call, someone will come out to guide and answer, and march in a hurry and find and annihilate the enemy in the least amount of time."

"And this time the Navy and Air Force are also ready, they will send their own detachments of ships and combat and bomber detachments to participate in the battle. More than 1,000 landing craft and tens of thousands of assault boats have also been prepared, and all of them have gone into concealment. Just take it out and use it when you launch the general attack tomorrow morning. ”

"We have also confirmed the location and coordinates of the enemy's artillery positions, and our army's artillery can be far better than them, farther than them, and more powerful than them, and it can completely suppress and destroy them and cover the troops crossing the river."

"Okay, then we just have to wait for tomorrow morning."

The next day, Foxiao, North Korea's Daejeon Airport and several other front-line airfields.

At this time, nearly 1,000 Stars and Stripes B-24 double-tailed bombers were lining up in turn, preparing to enter the runway, and this was the largest bomber group they had formed since they carried out the bombing mission, and they would carry out the "Tokyo Trial" fixed-point bombing plan under the escort of the same number of P-47 "Thunderbolt" fighters, so as to teach the Japanese a profound lesson on the first day after entering 1944.

Moreover, in order to achieve the maximum bombing effect, the Yanhuanghong Party also specially recommended a new type of incendiary bomb to the Stars and Stripes Banner - napalm-B (in 1965, the Dow Chemical Company of the Republic of the Stars and Stripes was successfully developed, and later became one of the symbols of the Vietnam War, it will "rapidly consume oxygen in the nearby air" and produce a large amount of carbon monoxide, which in turn causes nearby biological suffocation, napalm was used to clear the landing area for helicopters in the Vietnam War). Of course, the Star-Spangled Banner soldiers don't know the specific facts, they only know that this is a bomb that is so "a little" more powerful than ordinary incendiary bombs, and they are all dropped on the heads of the little devils anyway, not on their own heads, so what does this difference matter?

At the same time, directly above one of the major fortresses of the Japanese defense line south of the Yangtze River, Wang Fan was sitting on the aircraft looking at the time, and when the clock pointed to 5:30 in the morning, he said to Yadi: "It's time, start!" ”

Thus, on January 1, 1944, under the large-caliber guns of the Yanhuanghong Party that had shed their breeches one after another, under the B-24 double-tail bombers that flew one after another to the Japanese mainland, and under the "dumpling rain" of Comrade Wang Fan's aerial bombs!
