Chapter 1177: The Rescue Fleet Sets Sail for Japan

The lunch at noon was eaten by Wang Maoru, Vice Minister of National Defense Zhang Zuolin, Chief of Staff of the Ministry of National Defense Wu Peifu and others on the plane, eating the Chinese version of hamburger meat buns and pancake rolls with green onions. It's just that this meal is a little unpleasant, because the next thing is to face the first in Asia and the third in the world. It's a must-lose, a deadly game, but it has to be stopped.

After a three-and-a-half-hour flight, the plane finally arrived at Weihai Port and landed successfully, and thousands of people in Weihai learned that the president had come to Weihai and ran to the temporary airport to pick up the plane.

When several teenagers saw the rows of tall and strong Wehrmacht soldiers protecting them, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "In the future, I will also become a person like the generalissimo of the martial arts." Immediately caused other people to laugh, saying that they dreamed, people are the emperor's life, you are at most a small fish and shrimp, or go back to move the ancestral grave, bless your family to produce a martial generalissimo emperor in the next few lifetimes -- the Chinese people are no matter what the president or prime minister, in their hearts, the best thing to speak is the emperor.

In the hearts of the people who don't know a liter of big characters and usually go to the county seat are great big places, is there a difference between the president and the emperor?

In order to welcome the arrival of the president, the vice minister of national defense, and the chief of staff, the magistrate of Weihai County had already prepared a residence for Wang Maoru and others, who were in the home of the richest man in Weihai. The mountains and rivers are beautiful for a hundred years, and it is said that the ancestors of this mansion have produced a talent in the previous generation, and it is really a first-class feng shui treasure. But Wang Maoru refused the kind invitation of the county magistrate and the gentry. He ran to the dormitory of the crew of the battleship Star Old Man to prepare for a night's stay.

Of course, it is not very comfortable to sleep here, and how can the rest room of the cabin be worthy of the landlord's compound, but Wang Maoru, as the president, shares weal and woe with the soldiers. It was very touching to the more than 2,000 crew members and pilots who participated in the rescue. But this is just a bitter Zhang Zuolin and Wu Peifu, they don't live in a good landlord's compound and live on a boat, it's really a crime. Fortunately, both of them are rough people, and they don't care very much, especially Wu Peifu's xìng is hard, and Zhang Zuolin is soft on the outside and rigid on the inside. Wang Maoru, who was ten years younger than them, could live in the boat, so they naturally persevered, and it was just a night's suffering.

After arranging the accommodation. In the evening, Wang Maoru and others held a meeting overnight, and Běijīng sent an urgent telegram saying that the Chinese side had warned China that if it sailed to the Rì Capital Sea without authorization, it would be surrounded and suppressed by the Fourth Fleet of the Rì Navy. Wang Maoru turned his head to Li Ruyan and said, "Does your air force have any countermeasures?" ”

Li Ruyan said: "Yes. Our army aviation has prepared 20 Kirin-2 bombers and 20 Suzaku 1-type dual-purpose planes in Weihai. They could reach a range of up to 200 kilometers, so it was enough to escort our rescue fleet to the Rì Ben Sea. ”

Wang Maoru sighed and said, "China's territorial waters are actually only twenty nautical miles away from the coastline, and twenty nautical miles away is actually the sea of rì, the more the fuck I think about it, the more angry I become." ”

Zhang Zuolin also shouted: "it, one day I'll have to beat up the little rì hard." He turned to Wang Maoru and said, "President, if there is one day, you will allow me to take command." ”

Wang Maoru smiled: "Okay." I'm sure. ”

Zhang Zuolin laughed.

Wang Maoru turned his head to Li Ruyan again, and a plan had already been brewed within the army airline. There was a plan to develop a combined fleet of aircraft against Rìben, and it was precisely because of this plan that Wang Maoru invested a lot of money in aircraft research and development.

For example, the gasoline incendiary bombs and white phosphorus incendiary bombs that are now in use, as well as the metal incendiary bombs that are being secretly developed -- among which the metal incendiary bombs were proposed by the German chemist Strauss, because Germany was also restricted from developing large surface warships, so China and Germany had a common need. The metal incendiary bomb was undoubtedly aimed at large surface ships, and he used aluminum powder and iron trioxide, which was later known as thermite, but the effect was not very ideal. The gasoline incendiary bomb is mainly used for the other party's engineering fortifications, especially in the face of the wooden structure of the house. White phosphorus incendiary bombs are the most common because they not only produce an inextinguishable flame, but are also accompanied by highly toxic gases, making them the most effective weapon against opposing infantry.

The cost of researching artillery shells was far lower than that of developing ships, and although the officers and men of the Navy complained, they also knew that it was just a dream to surpass the Navy. Therefore, the use of airplanes to carry the burning Ran became a secret killer against the Navy.

Is it going to be a killer feature this time? Wang Maoru also felt helpless, if there was no persecution of the Chinese in Rì himself, I am afraid that the secret of the bomber could still be preserved, but now it must be taken out.

Li Ruyan said with a wry smile: "Report to Your Excellency the President, we have installed three kinds of bombs on a total of forty Kirin Type 2 bombers and Suzaku Type 1 dual-purpose planes in Weihai, one is an ordinary bomb, one is a white phosphorus incendiary bomb, and the other is a Lie Xìng bomb. However, as far as I know, the battleship Kashima, the lead ship of the Fourth Fleet, is 16,000 tons, and all the bombs of our twenty planes will not sink the battleship Kashima. His face was full of helplessness, and he said: "So our air force can only do sāo disturbance, but it can't play the role of substance." ”

Wang Maoru said: "I don't need you to fight very well, but I ask you to give them heavy damage when you fire yourself." ”

Liu Guanxiong said: "President, the main ships of our navy have gone to sea, and if they are captured by Rìben, then China will not have a single warship." ”

Wang Maoru said: "I know that you are very bitter and dangerous, but we must not have a naval battle with them. The total tonnage of our fleet is only half of that of the Fourth Fleet, and if we can't win, we don't want to be killed. ”

"What if they capture us?"

"Self-sinking." Wang Maoru felt a pang of colic in his heart, the sorrow of a weak country, and the most helpless choice of a weak country.

All the officers were silent and silent, and the room was filled with a burst of death. At this time, Zhang Kuian hurriedly walked in and said in Wang Maoru's ear: "Agent No. 1 has sent a secret telegram to the Imperial Cabinet of the Imperial Chamber, asking them to allow the Chinese rescue ships to dock off the coast of Nagasaki Military Port after arriving at the Navy, and the Chinese will be transported to the ships. However, the navy did not reply to the Imperial Cabinet. ”

"Anything else?"

"No, just this one piece of information." Zhang Kuian said.

Wang Maoru frowned, and the Imperial Cabinet decided to allow Chinese ships to enter the Imperial Cabinet, but the Imperial Cabinet did not reply, that is to say, the Fourth Fleet of the Imperial Navy was ready to carry out an armed test of Chinese ships in the East China Sea! Just like the Kwantung Army launched the 918 incident, as soon as the Chinese did not resist, rì himself immediately entered in a big way. If the Chinese Navy does not resist, then the Fourth Fleet of Rìben will definitely capture all the Chinese ships. Internationally, at most, the commander of the Fourth Fleet resigned and apologized for his crimes!

Little rì Ben, here again for this set.

After knowing about this emergency, Wang Maoru immediately decided: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a piece of heavy information that the Fourth Fleet is preparing to carry out an armed attack on my rescue ship at sea. ”

"Ahh The officers immediately screamed.

Wang Maoru said: "Hai jǐng department, did you bring weapons and shells this time?" ”

"Brought it." Liu Guanxiong, the chief of Hai Jǐng, immediately said loudly, "Fully loaded with shells." ”

"Okay." Wang Maoru's face was blue, "Once you engage Rì himself, send a telegram to the Weihai Naval Base, and all the pilots of the Army Air Force bomber are in the cabin of the aircraft, ready to set off to meet the battle at any time, and the weapons are ready." He stood up and said, "This is top-secret information, remember, Rì himself will test first, if we don't resist, Rì himself will sink all our warships and rescue ships." The Old Man Star and the Revenge battleship, you have a very heavy task. Chief Liu, this time, you, the old Beiyang, will personally lead the team and take out the jīng god of the old Beiyang Navy. ”

"Yes." Everyone's hearts sank.

Wang Maoru let out a long sigh and said, "It seems that I thought of Xiao Rì too kindly. But he said in his heart: "How did I learn from Jiang Gong and take Rì's own ambition so lightly, this is my mistake, a mistake." Rì himself is a gambler, and if he doesn't succeed, he will become a benevolent person, and he will never settle down. ”

At four o'clock in the morning of March 16, the sea of Weihai was already lively, in addition to the more than 800 ships involved in the rescue, in addition to nearly 1,000 small fishing boats around the city also came, and many Shandong people also came to Weihai to send the rescue fleet to the sea. At this time, the clear sky suddenly darkened, and everyone looked up and was startled, and the airship that covered the sky was floating in the sky. More than 300 airships have been prepared, and this scene is as frightening as if the end is coming.

Several Shandong villagers were so shocked that they suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted that the gods had appeared, and the gods had appeared.

Even Wang Maoru was stunned, the three hundred airships in the sky were really too spectacular, as if they were endless, he turned back to Zhang Zuolin and said, "Seventh brother, how is it?" ”

"it, I'm scared to death of a little rì devil." Zhang Zuolin grinned and smiled in surprise.

Wang Maoru burst out laughing, and then President Wang Maoru personally announced: "Go to rì to save compatriots, start immediately." ”

The joint naval and air rescue team then set off at anchor and set off for the Nagasaki military port.

Led by two capital ships, the battleship Asterisk Avenger, he led a large number of civilian ships to prepare for Rìben. In the sky, hundreds of reporters witnessed and filmed this magnificent scene, especially the airships in the sky, which seemed to envelop the entire sky, and nearly 1,000 fishing boats, led by 17 warships, did not make a single sound.

"Woo woo woo ......". )
