Chapter 493: Little Devil Aircraft Carrier
After Zhang Yunfei conveyed the order, Liu Xing's face was excited, and he looked at Zhang Yunfei and said happily: "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, our special combat team will not let you down this time, you just wait for our good news!" ”
Zhang Yunfei stretched out his right hand, shook Liu Xing's hand tightly, and said with a smile: "Okay!" Congratulations on your victory! ”
"Yes!" Liu Xing saluted a solemn military salute, turned around, and walked out, leaving Zhang Yunfei with a firm back
This time, the special combat personnel will take part in the operation in Tianjin, especially the wharf of Tianjin Port, and the more than 200 special combat personnel, except for the nearly 100 special combat personnel who are scattered throughout North China to collect intelligence, the rest of the special combat personnel will all take part in the battle.
All the special combat personnel stationed in the Datong special combat unit will be airborne directly to the outskirts of Tianjin, while Liu Xing will be parachuted from the Beiping airfield to the predetermined location.
This time, in order to crack down on and eliminate the little devils to the greatest extent, the flying brigade will be dispatched again to strike at the little devils in Tianjin, and at the same time cooperate with the actions of the special combat team.
This time, the first batch of planes to take off will be 3 Mustang fighter squadrons, a total of 72 aircraft, and the follow-up 5 Mustang fighter squadrons will also take off, the first three Mustang fighter squadrons will hit the little devils in Tianjin Port, and blow up and sink the Japanese ships in Tianjin Port, so that the little devils can not retreat from the sea.
The five Mustang fighter squadrons in the rear will strike at the outskirts of Tianjin, as well as some positions and military targets of the little devils in Tianjin, and cooperate with various columns to attack Tianjin.
Originally. Zhang Yunfei did not intend to send so many Mustang fighters to fight again; some time ago, the high-density bombing for nearly 10 days in a row consumed nearly two-thirds of the aerial bombs in the 36 th Group Army's stockpile.
These days, the Mustang fighters of the flying brigade. At most, two or three squadrons were dispatched a day to coordinate the operations of the various columns, and aerial bombs were rarely used. Basically, machine gun fire was used.
But this time, so many little devils are ready to retreat from Tianjin Port, and Zhang Yunfei has also invested enough. So many planes were sent out at once, and every Mustang fighter plane was full of aerial bombs.
Peking Airport.
The three squadrons of Mustang fighters on the airfield will all take off, and as the first batch of planes to strike at the little devils, these planes will go straight to the port of Tianjin.
Beiping Airport used to be one of the main airports of the Little Devil North China Front, and the three main airports of the Little Devil North China Front, Beiping Airport, Shijiazhuang Airport, and Xuzhou Airport, two of these three airports have been occupied by the 36th Group Army.
Thereinto. Peking Airport is the largest one, and at present, there are three squadrons of Mustang fighters at Beiping Airport, in addition, there are several large transport aircraft. At Shijiazhuang Airport, there were two squadrons of Mustang fighters.
The current Beiping Airport has just been renovated, but you can still see the ruins around the airport that have not had time to be cleaned up, but now the runway and apron have been repaired, which does not affect the take-off of the aircraft.
One after another Mustang fighters, under the command of the tower. Taxiing on the runway, accelerating, and then flying into the southern sky one after another, these Mustang fighters, taking the squadron as a unit, immediately flew in the direction of Tianjin after completing the formation in the sky.
Liu Xing, the leader of the special combat team, also came to the Beiping airport with more than a dozen special combat team members at this time, and Liu Xing led the dozen or so special combat team members to take off from the Beiping airport and then parachute into the predetermined place in Tianjin.
More special combat personnel are boarding the plane at Datong Airport at this time, and these more than 100 special combat personnel will be airborne at the predetermined location in Tianjin, and then meet Liu Xing and others. …,
Tianjin Port.
The huge and wide wharf of Tianjin Port has gathered a lot of little devils, the number of little devils is at least tens of thousands, and more than a dozen transport ships docked by the dock have begun to board the ships at this time.
In addition to the little devils, there are many Japanese ronins, merchants, and many other Japanese, and Tianjin is about to be attacked by the 36th Group, and these Japanese will also retreat from the port of Tianjin.
There are also many Japanese who retreated from Tianjin Port, at least tens of thousands, and many Japanese are still dragging their families, and many Japanese still have large bags and small bags, carrying a lot of things.
In the past, the little devils occupied the Beijing and Tianjin areas, and these Japanese came here from Japan, where they lived a life of masters.
These Japanese, although they are not Japanese soldiers, but many Japanese are not good birds, usually ping Chinese people, stepping on the heads of Chinese people to and pee.
The current port of Tianjin is noisy, with tens of thousands of little devils and tens of thousands of ordinary Japanese, who will retreat first as planned, and most of them will be shipped to Japan.
This time, Nishio Shouzo also prepared at least two dozen large transport ships to transport these Japanese back to Japan.
Now, Nishio Shouzo and a group of senior commanders of the North China Front have boarded the ship, and this large transport ship has already whistled for a long time and is slowly leaving the port of Tianjin.
and Nishio Shouzo accompanied him, there were two slightly smaller transport ships, each carrying two or three thousand little devils, Nishio Shouzo's fleet was preparing to sail to the Bohai Sea.
Escorting the Nishio Shou shipbuilding fleet was a destroyer and three large gunboats.
Outside the port of Tianjin, about a dozen nautical miles away from the port of Tianjin, there is also a large fleet formation docked, if an expert will be surprised at a glance, in such a close place from the port of Tianjin, there is actually an aircraft carrier of little devils.
Yes, it is an aircraft carrier, and it is a little devil "Canglong" aircraft carrier, there are also a large number of Zero fighters docked on the deck, in addition to this aircraft carrier, there are two heavy cruisers, three destroyers, and some large gunboats and other ships.
Last time, Tianjin Port was violently bombed by the 36th Group Army, and a whole field division of the little devils was killed, which made the top brass of the little devils' base camp angry.
This time, the little devil's base camp was very cautious, and actually sent a large fleet composed of an aircraft carrier, two heavy cruisers, and three destroyers to cover the little devil's retreat.
The other ships next to this fleet, such as those large gunboats, several supply ships, etc., these other ships are basically the ships of the 1st and 2nd fleets of the Little Devil Navy, and the main task of these ships is to cover the successful retreat of the Little Devil to Lianyungang.
And the aircraft carrier "Soryu", as well as the two heavy cruisers, and the three destroyers are all from the combined fleet of the Little Devil Navy.
At present, the main forces of the Little Devil Navy, most of the aircraft carriers, battleships, cruisers, destroyers, etc., are basically in the Pacific Ocean, and the Pacific War between the Little Devil and the United States is about to break out.
But this time, in order to cover the retreat of so many little devils from Tianjin Port, the base camp of the little devils still gritted their teeth and insisted on dispatching the aircraft carrier "Canglong", which is closest to China, as well as the two heavy cruisers and three destroyers, to come over and swim around the periphery of Tianjin Port.
The little devil's "Soryu" aircraft carrier is the first modern aircraft carrier, in contrast, although the Akagi and Kaga are huge, they do not have a modern appearance now, and this modern appearance is determined on the Soryu class. …,
It can be said that the Japanese aircraft carriers in the future were all developed based on the Soryu class. The hull is a high-speed, cruiser-like hull with speed as a priority, with a flight deck running the entire length of the ship, a small bridge on the starboard side, and two downward-curving chimneys behind it.
The aircraft carrier Soryu, built by the Kure Port Naval Shipyard, began construction in November 1934, was launched in December 1935, and completed in December 1937.
The Soryu was the first purpose-built large aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy, with a double-deck hangar and all-access flight deck, a starboard-island superstructure, and the main engine of a cruiser for high speed. The large aircraft carriers built by the Japanese Navy in the future are all based on the design of this aircraft carrier.
It has a full load displacement of 19,800 tons, steam turbines, 8 boilers, 4 shafts, 152,000 horsepower, a maximum speed of 34.5 knots, a crew of 1,100 people, 6 twin 127-mm guns, 28 25-mm anti-aircraft guns, and 63 carrier aircraft (up to 71 units).
At present, the Canglong aircraft carrier carries a total of 18 Zero carrier-based fighters, 18 Type 97 carrier-based fighters, and 18 Type 99 carrier-based fighters.
The little devil even sent his first aircraft carrier in the true modern sense, and it seems that the base camp of the little devil attaches great importance to the nearly 100,000 Japanese troops besieged by the 36th Group Army, as well as tens of thousands of Japanese civilians.
However, the little devil sent an aircraft carrier, two heavy cruisers, and three destroyers, and not only Zhang Yunfei did not know, but even the special combat personnel lurking in Tianjin did not know that the ships of the little devil were all outside Tianjin Port, more than ten nautical miles away from Tianjin Port.
Tianjin Port.
On the huge wharf of Tianjin Port, the little devils were boarding the ship, but at this time, the three Mustang fighter squadrons of the flying group and more than 70 Mustang fighters loaded with aerial bombs had already flown towards Tianjin Port.
The distance from Beiping to Tianjin is very close, and for the Mustang fighters, it is only about half an hour, and now, three squadrons of Mustang fighters have entered the airspace over the urban area of Tianjin, and are flying towards the port of Tianjin while reducing the flight altitude.
