Although the wind is weak, but in the middle of the night in the wild, but still only feel the biting cold, this Layue coast, is indeed too cold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And in that biting cold, the train stopped on the tracks, and the soldiers kept jumping out of the carriages,

After jumping off the train, the soldiers immediately hid into the woods near the railway under the command of the officer, and looked at the heavily armed soldiers, the resistance fighters who were waiting for a lot, and all looked at them with excitement, as if at this moment, they only needed to see these fighters to see the hope of victory.

Almost as soon as he got out of the car, Yu Xiyuan looked up at the moonlit sky, and after a long time, he asked the chief of staff beside him when he didn't see anything unusual.

"What time does the airship arrive?"

"The appointment is between six and half past six, which should be about this time."

Although they had now arrived, the attack had to be based on the arrival of the airship. That meant they had to wait any longer, but more than 2,000 brothers were hiding in the woods in a foreign land, and every minute they stayed was dangerous.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be no delay, besides, the telephone lines and telegraph lines will definitely be cut at the first time, and today's actions will never be exposed in advance!"

Li Jin said confidently to the commander of the infantry regiment.

"So, are there any other resistance groups involved in today's operation?"

The intelligence officer's words made Yu Xiyuan realize that the scope of today's operation was not just a military offensive in the simple sense, a large number of intelligence officers had been sent to Russia before the war, and in the Far East, thousands or even tens of thousands of Japanese immigrants were willingly driven by China. They or they gather intelligence. or directly participate in the action.

In the first time after the outbreak of war. By cutting the telephone and telegraph lines on order, the Russian border alert system was dismantled, and the time for the troops to attack, even if it was only an hour or two, was sometimes enough to turn the tide of the war.

"More than one resistance group, of course, only the most reliable ones will participate in our actions."

The resistance of the Japanese was mixed. Among them, there were those who were inclined to Japan's independence, those who supported East Asian integration, and even those who were pro-British and American, and it was precisely for this reason that although the intelligence officers mobilized all resistance forces to participate in this operation, only those organizations that were pro-Chinese and supported the policy of East Asian integration would participate in this operation.

"As early as half a month ago, we completed the survey of the Shuangchengzi Fortress, and the guiding fire points in the area have also been secretly marked recently. Combustibles are also prepared in advance near the fire point. After six o'clock, we will light the various pilot fires at the same time. This series of fire points will lead the airship to lower the assault team in the correct spot. ”

Li Jin explained to the chief beside him.

"At the same time as the assault team launched an offensive, the troops should move into this position......"

Pointing to a location on the map, only a little more than a hundred meters from the fortress, there were no dense woods, only a clearing with an extremely open view - the Russians had already cut down all the trees to get a good enough view.

"I know!"

Nodding, Yu Xiyuan was still a little worried.

"There should be no problem for our people to infiltrate the past, but the key is to understand the landing of the airship, which requires a lot of manpower to land, and there must be a mooring tower, otherwise it will be difficult to descend safely. But none of this is ......."

That's what worries him the most - what if the commandos can't land smoothly? All their plans are based on the success of the commando.

Shrugging his shoulders, Li Jin said helplessly:

"The order I received was only to guide the airship and lead the way for the advance force, and there was no mention of helping the airship land, so as far as I guess, the airship that came this time should be able to lower the troops without landing."

At this moment, a thin figure suddenly appeared in the darkness, looking towards the figure, which turned out to be one of the resistance fighters who had been sent to guide the fire before nightfall.

"Mr. Li, the fire at the No. 3 guide point is ready."

"Got it, go back and tell him that you must light the fire on time."

"Yes!"

In the blink of an eye, after a few strokes, the thin figure disappeared without a trace.

It was at this time that the teams assigned to the various guiding fire points came back one after another to report, and by six o'clock, all the guiding fire points had been reported that they were ready.

"It's ten past six."

As soon as Yu Xiyuan's words fell, a star of fire flashed near the hill, and then the fire grew larger, illuminating the appearance of the fire below.

Immediately afterward, on the north, west, and south sides, more than a dozen fires were lit in turn, forming several huge arrows, pointing centripetally to a predetermined location - that was the location of the Russian fortress.

"Alright, let's get ready to go."

Li Jin drew his Binjiang pistol, and although he didn't need to be on the front line as an intelligence officer, this time he decided to attack with the soldiers.

"What should I do if such a bright fire is revealed?"

Those lights made Yu Xiyuan a little uneasy.

"The fires are all in the forest, so you can see clearly from the sky, but from the fortress, it's hard to notice......"

The General Staff had measured such guiding fire points, which were indeed difficult to find on the ground, but they were extremely eye-catching when viewed from the air.

At one of the fires, several resistance fighters were looking up at the sky at the edge of the red fire, and behind them, the fighters who had just arrived were approaching the Russian fortress.

A young resistance fighter threw his head up and listened to the sky for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed excitedly:

"There are voices."

"No, it's the sound of the engine!"

At 6:12 a.m. on February 3, Dalian time, looking at the ground from the "Canglong VI" airship, the big arrow that flashed bright fire in the dark soil was clearly visible, and the arrow pointed to a mountain bag in several directions, which was even eye-catching in a forest and snow field -- that was the Russian Shuangchengzi Fortress.

"Sir, we've got in touch with the ground. The advance force has already entered the predetermined position! ”

After listening to the captain's report. Sun Shiqi, commander of the Marine Corps Search Company, shouted at the soldiers in the cabin behind him.

"Brethren. You ready! ”

"Ready!"

At the same time, the red lights in the cabin flashed, reflecting dozens of heavily armed soldiers in the cabin, and the faces of these Marine officers and soldiers were all painted with black charcoal paint without exception.

"Company Commander Sun. From now on, the airship will try to be as stable as possible! ”

The captain then proceeded to carry out the procedures that the airship had repeatedly performed over the past year or so, only to remain stable, as stable as possible.

"Stand up! Check out the gear! ”

With the platoon commander's order, Li Cunye and his comrades-in-arms who had already been ready to stand up like a shot, and the whole team, after a while, reported one by one from back to front:

"Checked...... Checked...... Check it out! ”

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense!"

Sun Shiqi looked at the comrades-in-arms in the cabin, this was the last time to advise.

"Everybody knows that. The importance of our task, in a word. God willing! Alright, brethren, board! ”

When Sun Shiqi's words fell, the floor of the airship was opened, and in an instant, the biting cold wind poured into the spacious cabin of the airship, without any hesitation, Sun Shiqi, as the company commander, was the first to walk to the hatch, and slid down the lowered sliding rope, and under the leadership of the company commander, the officers and soldiers slid out of the cabin from the four hatches on the floor in accordance with the original order.

"The teams are out of the boat in the predetermined order, and now the operation begins!"

After the order was given, the leaders of the four squads slid down the zipline down the hatch with swift movements, and finally when it was Li Cunye's turn, he first took a deep breath, and then grabbed the zipline, and at the moment of sliding down the hatch, he only felt the cold wind pour into his collar.

As he slipped down, by the light of the moon, he could see the gap between the airship and the hatch between the airship that was more than two feet wide, if he was not careful......

Just when Li Cunye's heart was floating, his body was grabbed by his comrades-in-arms suddenly, and he was the captain.

"You kid, you're cranky again!"

Zhao Guodong, who was wearing a steel helmet, slapped Li Cunye's steel helmet hard.

"Quick, get in your seat!"

The comrades-in-arms were sitting on both sides of the cabin of the ******, most of them with smiles on their faces, and when they sat in their seats, Li Cunye saw that Dali beside him was checking the bayonet there.

"What's wrong?"

"Isn't it on the mission book? After the plane landed, I could cut the skin directly in this position, and get out of here like rushing out of the belly of a cow......"

When he spoke, he gestured there vigorously, as if he were gesturing an interesting story, but for the world, it was indeed an interesting story - this was the first airborne operation in the history of mankind.

Two years ago, in the face of the fortified fortresses of Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok, the army and navy staff had formulated one plan after another, the army was equipped with a large number of siege guns, and the navy had increased the firing angle of naval guns.

Indeed, there seems to be no other option, but compared to the fortress group in Vladivostok, the Twin Cities Fortress, which is not very powerful, is like a roadblock blocking the way for the army to attack Vladivostok.

How to conquer the Twin Cities Fortress at the first moment of the outbreak of war?

This becomes a question for everyone, bypassing this fortress? Apparently not, because it guarded the railway to Vladivostok, and he stood like a roadblock on the hill on the east side of the railway.

It was almost impossible to get close to it, and in order to get enough sight, the Russians cut down almost all the trees within two kilometers of the vicinity. Even if you barely get closer, in front of the fortress, the vertical plane of two or three meters high will block the attack of the troops like a city wall, but unlike the ordinary city wall, this "city wall" is a mountain. At the top of the hill, under the fortified fortress were rapid-fire cannons that could be fired in a ring, in a word, the fortress was a nightmare for any attacker.

"It can stop any attacker from going south along the railroad! Even the most powerful army in the world will take years to conquer it! ”

The self-confidence of the Russians is a nightmare for the Northeast Army, how to defeat this roadblock?

One plan after another was proposed, and then overturned, because none of them could solve one problem - time! According to the plan of the General Staff, the Northeast Army must crush the resistance of the Russian army in the Far East with heavy punches in the shortest possible time at the beginning of the war.

Not half a year, not a month, but ...... Fifteen days!

Fifteen days to lay down Vladivostok, this is simply delusional!

As far as the officers and staff officers of the army and navy are concerned, their task is to turn this delusion into reality, and in this reality, the most difficult thing is not Vladivostok, but this "roadblock" standing in the twin cities. ”

In the end, it was not the army and navy officers and staff officers who solved the problem, but the governors of the three eastern provinces, who gave another option.

"There's no way to get close to it from land, so we'll hit it from the air!"

At a staff meeting, Tang Haoran, as the governor of the three provinces, faced with the long-standing problem of the Shuangchengzi fortress, proposed a new possibility - using ****** to carry out the landing of the fortress!

When this plan was proposed, ****** was only a tester for students at Northeastern University, and as for how to manufacture and use ******, it was a blank for the Northeast Army.

It was in this blank space that, out of enthusiasm for war, and with a ****** sketch and structural principle drawn by Tang Haoran, the army spent two years creating a ****** that "can project troops" -- the Assault 1 ******, which adopts a hybrid structure with high single wing and underwing support. The cross-section of the fuselage is approximately rectangular, and the skeleton is welded from steel pipes and covered with a skin made of linen, so the manufacturing cost is very low and it is easy to produce in large quantities. In addition to the two pilots and the co-pilot, it can also carry eight heavily armed airborne troops. It weighs only 900 kilograms.

With ******, how do you deliver ******?

Naturally, airships were the only choice, and at first large airships could only carry one ******, but even so, after thorough testing, the military concluded that when raiding a tactical target with a small range, landing with an assault ****** would be the best option, and the pilot could land within 20 meters of the target with accurate maneuvering ******. As soon as they landed, heavily armed airborne troops could immediately jump out of ****** and into battle. Secondly, ****** there is no noise from the engine, if you attack at night, you can sneak to the target area without the enemy knowing it, so as to achieve a near-perfect surprise effect.

Perfect Surprise Attack!

And this is exactly what the military needs, and it is precisely because of this that with the support of the military, the Canglong VI airship, which is the carrier aircraft, will be developed. And today, in the dark night, the only two Canglong 6 airships of the Northeast Army are carrying eight assault ****** approaching the target...... (To be continued.) )
