Wait for the 513th chapter to land in Taiwan
@@@@@
Yoshiichi Tanaka and Nobuaki Makino probably did not expect that when they tried to use the peace talks to buy more time for mobilization in the country, there was already some kind of consensus on the other side of the sea.
Although Yang Qiu never believed that the United States and France would really support him, he believed that if he really opened his mouth to seek a battleship with 406mm or 380mm guns, the two heads would definitely shake faster than a rattle. But this is exactly the situation he wanted from the beginning of the plan, whether overt or covert, as long as Britain cannot tie the United States and France to the chariot, then there is no need to worry.
Even the most hypocritical support is enough for the Wehrmacht to throw off all baggage!
The sudden outbreak of the conflict in the Yellow Sea and the tragic tragedy of thousands of naval officers and men killed and wounded made the whole country feel the same hatred and hatred. To be honest, for ordinary people who had heard about the war since 1911, their attitude towards war was not at all as panicked and nervous as it had been in the early years, and the European war rehabilitation program had only just begun, so the speed of mobilization of the Wehrmacht this time was unprecedented.
Just five days after the incident in the Yellow Sea, the aircraft carrier Taiwan had already arrived in the Penghu Islands.
On the deck, two navy-type biplane Haidongqing combat/reconnaissance planes, painted in striking red and yellow striped colors, with Zhong Kui on the nose and circular tricolor flags on the wings, are preparing to take off. Just looking at this exaggerated and eye-catching color, you know that they are the Zhong Kui Brigade newly formed by the Navy. This brigade is composed of veteran pilots who have participated in the European war, including former naval pilots and elites who were separated from the air force after the war. For example, sitting in the cockpit at the moment are the ace pilots of the expeditionary force who took the initiative to invite Ying to the navy after the war, Lieutenant Zhu Binhou, who has 17 shot down experience, and Second Lieutenant Shen Ziqiu, who has 11 shot down records.
Gloves, leather jacket, goggles, scarves and pistols. This is a typical sign of the European war aviation, and the two of them joined the navy together with 33 other experienced air comrades in order to enrich the naval aviation force, and this incident also made the air force preparing for the formation very annoyed for a time, and secretly scolded the navy for digging into the wall. Zhu Binhou put on the goggles, stretched out the hatch with his left hand and shook it gently, this is a signal that he has been prepared! These veterans have made up their minds to hold up the skies of the future Chinese naval aviation with technology, personality and style. They are also lucky. Because they stand on the same starting line as the world's naval powers. No, even slightly exceeded! After all, Haidongqing is still one of the best fighter jets in the world, and only the Chinese Navy currently has two 10,000-ton training aircraft carriers in the world.
After the aircrew turned the propellers hard, the newly replaced 300-horsepower V8 water-cooled engine erupted into a powerful roar. Sitting in the cockpit, you can clearly feel the planes rushing forward, and if it weren't for the wheels, no one would have suspected that they would immediately rise into the sky.
"Good luck to you."
In the dashing forward gesture of the deck controller, the sailors pulled the retaining wheel together, and the unrestrained Hai Dongqing rushed forward suddenly, and it took less than thirty meters to soar into the sky with two machine guns.
After going to the sky, Zhu Binhou felt that his vision was much broader, and he turned his head to the right to see the 50,000-ton ships protected by 11 destroyers and 2 cruisers. Army comrades of the 3rd Division, who were crowded on the deck, were waving to them. The fleet set off from Sanduao yesterday evening, and at this moment there are still two hours before its destination, Changhua Lugang, and their task is to reconnoiter the sea situation and ensure the safe arrival of the fleet.
After changing the engine and larger fuel tank, Haidongqing can reach a speed of 210 kilometers per hour, the air time is extended to 2.5 hours, and the combat radius is 180 kilometers. After all four follow-up partner planes took off, Zhu Binhou decided to fly east to reconnoiter the sea first. Then he switched to the island of Taiwan and went to sea from Changhua to return to the mothership. In order to ensure that the sea surface targets can be discovered in a timely manner, the three reconnaissance formations try to spread as far apart as possible, and from time to time it is necessary to send a small team to a low altitude to inspect suspicious targets in detail. But because things happened suddenly. The whole of Japan was obviously not well prepared, so there was no shadow of Japanese warships along the way. Seeing that the time was almost up, he led the formation to turn around and fly towards the island of Taiwan, and after arriving at the coast, he changed its route to the south to reconnoiter at Lukang, which was about to go to the landing site.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at Changhua Lugang, two fast targets suddenly appeared at low altitude!
The wingman was the first to spot two British-made Sopviss Camel fighters climbing up from the ground. Zhu Binhou was very familiar with this famous fighter that appeared in the late European War, and after the Paris Peace Conference, the Air Force purchased a squadron to study it, and he himself flew this kind of aircraft in France. Judging from the ceiling, climb rate, engine power, and maneuver ability, this fighter is comparable to Haidongqing before the replacement. So finding a camel here made him frown. Could it be the British? As the target approached, the sun flag on the wings made it clear who the opponent was.
The fact of the appearance of Japanese fighters in Taiwan apparently surprised Zhu Binhou and the pilots a little, and they did not know about it until later. The two camels did belong to the Japanese military. As a nation that is good at learning, Japan could not fail to fail to see the development and importance of the overwhelming aviation force in the European War, and although it did not send pilots to the fierce training on the Western Front, it still purchased camels, famous aircraft such as the French Sparkard and the Newpole through various channels, and even the German-made Haidongqing also got a few planes to return to China for study after the war.
Experience for the use of experimental aircraft in the tropics. Some of them were also deployed to Taiwan for testing, and the two happened to be near Taoyuan. After learning of the conflict, the Japanese military realized that Taiwan was likely to be landed, so they put them in charge of reconnaissance, and at the same time began to prepare for the transfer of the 5th Division, which had been rebuilt in the Ryukyus after the last war, to assist in the defense. However, due to the limited shipping capacity, less than 1,000 people have arrived at Keelung Port.
The pilots of the 2 camels are obviously inexperienced, if Europe is a pilot, in the face of 6 Hai Dongqing, they will definitely turn around and run, even if they are brave, they will never scatter the battle alone, but the two on the opposite side are actually far away to fight separately. Zhu Binhou, who has experienced the tragic air battle on the Western Front, will not underestimate any target, and no matter how old the trump card is, it is possible that he will be shot down by a rookie who goes to the sky for the first time, so he raised two fingers and waved it to his partner.
Twin aircraft formation.
After giving a tactical signal, he took the lead in flicking the lever to the left. Hai Dongqing deftly turned over, and at the same time, the wingman made the same movement, and the two aircraft engines let out a violent scream and dived towards the enemy plane. This was the first encounter tactic adopted by the Germans in the European War, once a low-altitude target was found, it would dive directly into the engagement, this attitude allowed the fighter to gain a large speed advantage in a short period of time, and if the enemy was facing it, it was necessary to overcome the slow movement of the oxcart during the climb period. If you dodge, the attacker will quickly pull up, then turn and chase the enemy with the long plane, while the wingman will be responsible for circling to intercept the enemy.
The Japanese pilots did not dare to engage during the climb, so when they saw the dive, they immediately flattened the fuselage and prepared to fight, but at this time, Zhu Binhou had already driven the plane down from his right side, and then quickly pulled up and flipped the 360 and went around its tail. The Japanese pilot's technique was not bad, and when he saw Hai Dongqing biting his tail, he maneuvered desperately, up and down trying to shake off his opponent, but just as he was trying to get rid of it, the wingman who had circled around had already been killed from the oblique stab. The 12.7mm fanged aviation twin heavy machine gun obviously overflowed firepower, only to see two lines of fire ejected from the nose, the camel was as if it had been hit by an air hammer, the wings quickly fell off, and then the tail broke, and finally the Japanese pilot had to parachute to try to escape.
But Zhu Binhou was unwilling to let go of this guy, the plane could not be rebuilt, but the pilot was a valuable property, even if he failed to parachute and it would be dangerous to encounter it again next time, so he pushed the joystick and chased after the open parachute. After two shots, the Japanese pilot under the parachute broke at waist length, and it was impossible to survive the injury from a high altitude. After confirming the death of the Japanese pilot, he turned his head to look at another camel. The one was obviously more unlucky than his opponent, it was cut cross-cutting from the cabin, and the pilot died before he even had a chance to open the parachute.
From discovery to destruction, the air battle was declared over in less than ten minutes, and some people later regarded this small air battle as the first encounter of the Wehrmacht to recover Taiwan.
Shooting down two rookies was just a way for the "Zhong Kui" to add a "ghost head" logo to the nose of the plane, so the formation continued to fly towards Changhua without getting too excited. After arriving in Changhua, they found that the direction of Lukang was already a cloud of smoke and explosions. The Japanese troops stationed in Taiwan, who were unwilling to abandon Taiwan, foresaw that the Wehrmacht might land from Changhua, so they transferred a brigade from Taipei through the longitudinal railway, and also sent hundreds of security teams to support them.
Although the Japanese troops stationed in Taiwan reacted quickly, they were completely unable to stop the attack from the sea without naval cooperation. The cruiser Haitian, which was given by the British, is leading two Changfeng-class destroyers to launch a fierce artillery attack on coastal targets, 16 152mm and 120mm naval guns have pressed the Japanese troops to the ground and cannot raise their heads at all, and six Seagull-class speedboats brought from the coast guard to temporarily serve as transport coolies are rushing towards this place at a rapid pace, and the army assault team has begun to land.
Farther away, five 10,000-ton ships had anchored in a hemispherical shape off the coast of Lukang, a large number of transport boats and rowboats were lowered, and the comrades of the 3rd Division followed closely behind to launch a landing battle against Changhua. If they could continue to fly south, then they would find that the same was being fired in the direction of Fengshan (Kaohsiung), where the two cruisers Zhaohe and Feihong led 12 destroyers to launch a strong attack on Fengshan, and the marines and the 16th Separate Brigade, which made their debut under their protection, delivered about 2,000 soldiers in only 3 hours like a poorly defended harbor.
Changhua landing! Fengshan landing!
Just a few days after the clash in the Yellow Sea, the Wehrmacht finally made a real move, and the first slap was the motherland Treasure Island, which was lost due to the Treaty of Shimonoseki and was unwilling to give up by Japan after the Hachijo Treaty......
