Chapter 282 Shocking
Shinkyo, Ogasawara sat in his chair with a gloomy face, he couldn't understand how this suddenly appeared Shina army had so many methods that they didn't understand. First, there was the sniper rifle, which has been confirmed and developed by the War Department, followed by the grenade that the gun can fire, which can destroy tanks and deliver chemical bombs. Then there's Iron Fist, an anti-tank weapon that can easily wreck tanks, which they've gotten from their allies and are working on replicas.
The other side also has artillery techniques that they have not yet figured out and cannot defend against, covering at once and destroying everything within a hundred and ten meters in diameter, which is impossible to prevent.
And now, the other side has come up with a sharp weapon that can defend the air, although it is not yet known what the road is, but according to the fragments of the message, it can be concluded that this weapon is artillery, and the artillery specially used to deal with aircraft is another weapon that they do not know how to do.
How did they get their hands on these new weapons? And the concept and technology are advanced, very advanced.
Ogasawara squinted his eyes and was dull and silent.
The loss of 200 planes at one time, but the fact that the other side did not even know what means the other side used, this loss was too unworthy. After waiting for more than half a month, the first air raid was hit hard, which is frustrating.
After a dull half-sound, he looked up at the generals in the room, and saw that they were all dejected, their eyes flashed, and they shouted: "Raise your heads!" Are you still a soldier of the Emperor? ”
Brush!
All the generals stood upright, raised their heads and looked at each other, and did not dare to breathe.
"Inform the special high class, I need to know what the other party's air defense means are!"
Ogasawara Shuo did not dwell on the issue of the depressed mood just now, and ordered: "Send a telegram to the Kwantung Army Headquarters, send a telegram to Your Excellency the Commander, and report the situation in detail." ”
Soon, the message reached the command of the Kwantung Army. Subsequently, the commander 'Umezu Yoshijiro' got the telegram.
"They also have anti-aircraft weapons!??"
'Umezu Mijiro' was shocked.
The news is so exciting. Tanks are useless, artillery is useless, and planes are useless, so what means does the empire have to defeat the other side? Do you want someone to fill it in?
The strength shown by the enemy has not only made him cautious, but has a sense of crisis that he will lose everything at any time. The other side has too many means. At present, it should be the accumulation of strength, and when the force accumulates to a certain extent, the other party will inevitably fight back, and it will not be the turn of the empire to attack them, it is they who will attack the empire.
And then, what will the Empire use against them?
'Umezu Mijiro's analysis is correct, any force is desperately accumulating at this stage of Dong Ku, and once it reaches a certain level, it will inevitably rebound strongly. And then it got out of hand.
He thought hard for a while, did not dare to slack off, and sent a telegram directly to the military headquarters, explaining to the Ministry of War and the education superintendent that the current special situation had been lost, and that the only means that could assist the attack had been lost, and that it would be difficult for the large army that had gathered to break through the opponent's defensive line.
Shouichi Terauchi has been busy planning these days, and after he received this news, he immediately regarded the advance army as a big drop. The other side is too strong. The empire has lost a lot, but they haven't moved a bit.
He quickly convened a high-level meeting and put together his ideas as a minister.
While they were discussing. Shinkyo Ogasawara suddenly received a report that made him excited and crazy, a lightning plane was injured and returned, and among the 200 planes, the only survivor who returned.
Without waiting for the plane to land, he urgently ordered the gendarmerie to rush to the airport in person. Safely secure the pilot and take it to his office.
Half an hour later, he met with Flight Lieutenant Shinji Kumamoto, and soon, he explained the means of attacking them with ground artillery fire.
When he drove to the airport. When he saw the heavily protected plane with holes in his body, he was not only impressed by Kumamoto's luck.
With so many holes, it was a miracle that he didn't break through the cockpit, didn't break the glass, didn't hurt the engine, didn't get hurt, didn't freeze, and came back like this.
"Find the warhead!"
Ogasawara marveled for a few seconds and ordered to look for the objects that had been punched out of the holes, which he instinctively judged to have been shot by bullets, and although the tear marks could be clearly seen at the edges of those holes, he thought that they must have been left by bullets.
The plane was quickly disassembled, and after careful searching, they really found two steel balls with scratches.
How can it be a steel ball?
Ogasawara held the steel ball, which was more than a centimeter in diameter, and pondered suspiciously.
You must know that the flight resistance of the steel ball is not a little bit greater than that of the tip of the bullet, and it is simply delusional to shoot the steel ball to a height of 1,000 meters. But where did the steel balls come from?
He pondered, put the ball near his nose and sniffed it. This smell, his eyes lit up, and there was a smell of gunpowder on the steel balls.
"When sending the steel balls to the special high school for inspection, it is important to know the nature of the gunpowder."
"Hayi!"
A young man put away the steel balls with a cloth bag and left the airport with his order.
More than two hours later, when Dong Ku extinguished the fire of the wreckage of the plane and recovered the wreckage, the plan for the Japanese mainland was also decided.
At this time, their movements were not known to the outside world, and when the citizens of Harbin were lifted and poured into the streets, they stood high and looked at the smoke in the distance.
They heard the violent explosions, and they heard the roar of artillery fire. But after coming out, except for the smoke billowing in the distance, there was no trace of a battle in the city.
The little devil's plane was beaten down by the advance army.
This news was believed by everyone, and they didn't care about the air raids in their hearts. They all believed that the advance army would be able to protect them from being bullied by the Japanese, and they firmly believed that the Japanese would not be able to fight back.
Dong Ku and the others did not participate in the elated atmosphere outside, he, Liu Zhong, and Liu Chengcheng were studying air defense matters, and carefully explained to Liu Zhong the importance of air defense and the steps of interception by enemy planes, so that Liu Zhong could take up this burden as soon as possible.
While they were relaxed, Ogasawara also completed the analysis of the gunpowder on the steel balls and came to the conclusion that the powder left on it was not gunpowder in the gun, but the explosives in the shells, that is. The steel balls are not sent into the air by firearms, but are sputtered by an explosion, and the kinetic energy generated by the explosion is used to punch the steel balls into the body. And the pilot Kumamoto Shinji described exactly this, he saw with his own eyes that clouds of smoke exploded in the air, and those smoke clouds were objects wrapped in steel balls.
According to inference. These steel balls flew out of the shells, that is, the shells were wrapped in steel balls, flew into the air and exploded, and the steel balls were used to intercept the aircraft.
Coming to this conclusion, he didn't dare to slack off, and quickly reported the news to Lu Shang.
The Japanese high-level officials, who had obtained the approximate interception method, could not figure out how the other side could not make the shells explode on their own in the air even if they put the steel balls in the shells. And the steel balls are sputtered out of the spit. This is obviously the key to the technique.
Just when all the high-level people were pondering, Shouichi Terauchi stood up and said: "We still have to give Stalin enough reasons to attack Heilongjiang, this news cannot be disclosed to Soviet Russia, but we can seek the help of our allies, the Iron Fist Advance Army used it first, and our allies produced it themselves, although it is not excluded that they provided it to the Advance Army, but the most critical thing is the transaction of equipment." And the number of pipes in that batch, it is enough to tell. They have a certain relationship with the advance army, so it is not a bad idea to test them with this news. ”
Everyone accepted this, and they thought it would be a test for their allies, first, to see if they had provided it to the advance force, and second, if not. They got so close, maybe they could know how to make this kind of shell, and then work out how to defend against the interception of steel balls.
Soon, Yugo Shiga receives a telegram and meets Paricino with him.
When Paricino understood that Shiga Yugo said that the Chinese unit had a special air defense. Instead of underestimating the capabilities of his allies on the plane, he was taken aback.
He knew very well that although the Japanese planes could not catch up with the performance of the Flamingos, it was not an ordinary interception that could severely damage them. And this information is really powerful, if Germany has such means, then, is there any need to worry about a fire in the backyard?
He hurriedly ended his meeting with Yugo Shiga and reported the news to Nozomi.
Hitler learned that the weapons tested by the weapons company in Heilongjiang actually had high-performance air defense, and immediately came to the spirit, this news for him, the weight is quite heavy, once Germany has this kind of weapon, that, in the flamingo and the tiger tank and iron fist that have been produced, it will be invincible, the defense is still leaky, do not have to worry about the enemy bombing their own nest, peace of mind in the front line assault.
Soon, Lao Xi confirmed the accuracy of the news from Christian in Harbin, the Japanese carried out three waves of air raids today, and no wave of planes flew over Harbin, and when he came out of his hideout, thick smoke billowed in the distance, which was obviously a phenomenon after the Japanese plane was shot down.
"Gotta get this weapon!"
Lao Xi ordered without hesitation.
Soon, the news spread to Dong Ku, he directly found Christian in disguise, and said straight to the point: "Christian, the purchase requirements put forward by your country cannot be met at present, we still need to test, after all, only one test has been carried out, and the Japanese plane needs to come over to continue the test, otherwise, the performance will be very dangerous." For the sake of credibility, this product is not suitable for trading until it is finalized. ”
Christian shook his head regretfully and said, "Then after your company is finalized, can you consider selling it to our country first?" ”
"This is no problem, as long as it is finalized, the first choice is, of course, your country, haven't we always been very happy to cooperate?"
"Ha Lu Ha! Right. We have been a pleasure working together. ”
Christian was relieved, and Ha Lu Ha Da smiled.
As long as there is this promise from the Japanese, then the deal is completed, and it is only a matter of finalizing and negotiating the price.
Dong Ku naturally didn't love the shell delay and the relevant data of the built-in steel balls at this time, to study, they still need a short time, once the sale of the cannonball, then the Japanese may soon know the way. He still doesn't know that in a few days, Japan will have the flamingos he sold to Lao Xi and launch an air attack on him. However, it was an attack plane, and even if it was accepted in Japan, it would not be of much use, and he had no intention of fighting the Japanese in the air at present, and his plane was still in the process of improving the existing Japanese planes to train pilots, and the skills related to the new aircraft were not yet in place, so he had to come step by step.
After he left the Longxiang Hotel, he returned to the barracks, explained the air defense matters again, and asked Liu Zhong to continue to train those Huya reserve personnel devils, hand over the defense of Shuangcheng to Shunzi, and hand over the industrial park to Liu Hai, he was going to Hulin.
Dong Ku knows very well that the bearded man will definitely attack frantically in the past few days, or once the river is opened, the attack will have to wait until the weather is warm, which is definitely an unbearable consumption for the Soviet Russian army gathered here, so in the brewing of these days, there will be a greater attack coming.
Dong Ku's judgment was right, the Soviet Russian army, artillery, tanks, and cavalry were rushing to the battlefield in a steady stream, and in two days at most, they would launch an offensive on all fronts.
The bearded man can't afford to wait. Otherwise, once civilized, they will have to wait at least until June when the weather is warmer, the ground is dry, and the snow melts. (To be continued......)
