The 39th Japanese air raid was in vain, and Yamamoto planned to kill the planes in all directions

The map was changed to the bombing of the fake Changfeng county town created by He Gang by Japanese planes

On the fourth day after the defeat of Kumamoto, Japan's air force dispatched 10 Mitsubishi 21 97 heavy bombers, preparing to fly to the sky above Changfeng County to bomb, at that time China had no air supremacy at all, and Japan's most advanced was the Zero fighter, and even the most advanced Wildcat fighter of the United States at that time could not compete with the Japanese Zero fighter. As for the planes of the Chinese Nationalist Government at that time, it was even worse, the air force of the Nationalist Government at that time did have more than a dozen fierce battles with the Japanese Air Force, and even the American Wildcat aircraft were not the opponents of the Zero fighter, and the Chinese aircraft at that time were even more vulnerable, the Air Force of the Nationalist Government was almost completely killed and wounded, and in the end there were only a few dozen planes left, and they were all damaged to varying degrees, and even some planes were made for show, most of them could not take off at all, China's Air Force at that time, It's just the ears of the deaf -- with them, they don't play a real role at all.

At that time, the Nationalist Government did not even have decent antiaircraft guns, neither air supremacy nor antiaircraft guns on the ground, and as long as Japanese planes came to attack in the air, all the Nationalist Government had to do was to transfer personnel and other daily necessities in advance, or to hide in air-raid shelters, so it could only let Japanese planes bomb indiscriminately. This morning, ten Japanese bombers took off, but when they flew into the air, they were dumbfounded, because the fog below was thick, and nothing could be seen on the ground, and the pilots had no choice but to return, but Okamura Ningji urged vigorously, and the pilots had to circle in the sky every day, they did not know where Changfeng County was, so the Japanese air force was as aimless as a blind man.

This time, it was bitter for these Japanese pilots, let's not go to the combat mission, Okamura Ningji urged again and again, to carry out the combat mission, and I couldn't see anything, so these pilots could only fly bombers every day, wandering around the sky indiscriminately every day, God also seemed to be deliberately helping the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, the sky above Changfeng County, the sky was foggy all day long. Therefore, Okamura Ningji is in a hurry and there is no way, and it has always been like this weather, such weather has lasted for a month and a half, but Okamura Ningji is angry, Okamura Ningji feels that even God seems to be against him, in order to reduce the pressure on the Air Force, the Air Force only sends reconnaissance planes every day to conduct reconnaissance, once the weather improves, or the reconnaissance plane finds a target, the reconnaissance plane immediately uses the radio to notify other bombers to come to bomb, so that it can be done once and for all, but this weather lasted for a month and a half, although Okamura Ninji was anxious, he was helpless.

After a few more days, the dense fog gradually dissipated, but the sight was still not ideal, the pilots looked at the ground in the air, still confused and hazy, Okamura Ningji immediately urged the air force to bomb Changfeng County, the air force reported; Although the current weather has improved, the visibility is still very poor and wait for a few more days, Okamura Ninji has no choice but to wait a few more days, but the speed of the dense fog dissipates is too slow, although the buildings on the ground are already faintly visible, but the visibility is still very low. Okamura Ningji listened to the report of the Air Force, Okamura Ningji could no longer sit still, Okamura Ningji hurriedly urged the Military Command Department, and the Military Command Department was also anxious, so he gave a death order, three days later, regardless of the visibility, Changfeng County must be bombed, three days later, the pilots took off with ten Mitsubishi 21 Type 97 heavy bombers, the bombers flew to the sky above Changfeng County, the pilot looked down from the sky, only to see a large area of black pressure below I don't know what it is, in fact, this is Changfeng County. Because the fog below had not completely dissipated, the pilots could not see it very clearly, and He Gang had already ordered people to paint the roofs of all the buildings in Changfeng County with black paint, so the Japanese pilots could not see clearly.

A Japanese pilot asked Ichiro Ono, the captain of the pilot group; What is the big black press below, said Ichiro Ono, the captain of the Japanese pilot group; It may be a crop field, or it is black clay land, let's leave it alone, continue to look for Changfeng County, everyone continued to look ahead, and then a pilot shouted; Captain, I found it, you see the rows of buildings below, the street layout is more standardized and orderly, you look at the dense little black dots on the ground, it must be people walking. The captain immediately ordered the plane to lower the altitude and observe carefully, the dense fog still blocked their vision, and the pilots still couldn't see clearly, but from the shape of those small black dots, it looked very like a human walking, and the captain laughed wildly; Ha, ha, ha, yes, this is Changfeng County, from the density of buildings and scattered streets, as well as from the analysis of the area and direction of the city, this must be "Changfeng County".

Captain Ono immediately ordered, all the bombs were dropped, one by one bombs fell like hail in the "Changfeng County", the huge explosion was deafening, those buildings were on fire in an instant, the captain Ono threw all the bombs, Ono hurriedly called the other ten bombers with the radio, and the other ten bombers full of bombs also flew to the sky above the "Changfeng County" with a roar, and threw the bombs one by one into the Changfeng County, at this time the "Changfeng County" was on fire. The huge explosion shook the ground, and those buildings turned into piles of ruins in an instant, and this time the little devil really made a bloody investment, and twenty bombers bombed the "Changfeng County Town" in turns, that is, in three or four hours, the "Changfeng County" had been annihilated, and Ono immediately ordered the Air Force to return when he saw that it was almost done.

Ono's flying group had just landed on the airfield, and Ono couldn't wait to send a report to the military command department; In this air raid, we have razed the county seat of Changfeng to the ground, and since then, there will be no Changfeng county town on Chinese soil, but due to the extremely poor visibility and poor sight, I am not sure whether the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment has been wiped out. The Military Command Department received Ono's telegram and immediately forwarded it to Okamura Ninji, who nodded with satisfaction after receiving the telegram. Okamura Ninji sent another telegram to Taro Yamamoto, and the next afternoon Taro Yamamoto rushed to the headquarters of the Japanese commander in a hurry, and Yamamoto said something at the door of Okamura Ninji's office; report, said Okamura Ninji; Come in, Yamamoto walked into Okamura Ninji's office, Okamura Ninji looked at Taro Yamamoto who was in the dust, Okamura Ninji was very surprised, Okamura Ninji said; Yamamoto-kun, you came to my commander's headquarters so in the dust, is there anything else? Taro Yamamoto said; Your Excellency, Commander, something is not good, said Okamura Ninji; What's the matter, Taro Yamamoto said; The Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment was not wiped out at all, and it was still safe and sound, Okamura Ninji was shocked when he heard it; Why, your agents were able to gather this kind of information so quickly.

Taro Yamamoto said; I haven't gathered any information, it's entirely based on my guess, but Your Excellency, you might as well think about it, the fog around Changfeng County has lasted for so long, and our air force roars over their heads every day, and any commander with a little military knowledge can guess that we are going to bomb their Changfeng County. The fog lasted for a month and a half, and it was impossible for them not to notice it for such a long time, and the planes hovered over their heads every day, which was tantamount to telling them that we were going to bomb their Changfeng County, and they would definitely take away everything that could be taken away in Changfeng County, Okamura Ninji said in surprise when he heard it; You're saying we're bombing an empty city. Taro Yamamoto nodded and said; That's right, said Okamura Ninji; Impossible, the telegram from the Air Force said; The streets were full of pedestrians, Yamamoto said; Even if the streets are full of pedestrians, then they can only be ordinary people, and I dare to assert that the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment is absolutely unharmed and unscathed. Okamura Ninji said; There is a complete possibility, but even if we didn't eliminate the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, we killed so many civilians and completely destroyed Changfeng County, which is also a heavy blow to the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, Taro Yamamoto said; What about the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, Okamura Ninji said; You must do everything you can to destroy the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment.

Taro Yamamoto said loudly; Hi, Your Excellency Commander, I have a battle plan, if this battle plan can be implemented smoothly, we can not only eliminate the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, but we can also annihilate Liu Chenzhou's 11th Division, Guo Yiming's Independent Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and Chen Guang's 343rd Brigade in one fell swoop. Okamura Ninji said; What, you are so sure, Taro Yamamoto said; Yes, but I can't do it with one Yamamoto division, and other divisions must cooperate with each other in order to achieve the most perfect effect, Okamura Ninji said; Be specific about your battle plan. Taro Yamamoto said; At this time, my battle plan, please look at it Commander, Yamamoto said and took out a battle book from under his armpit, Yamamoto Taro handed the battle book to Okamura Ninji, Yamamoto Taro said; In this battle book, I drew up the entire battle plan in detail, and I didn't know if it was feasible.

Okamura Ninji took it and looked at it carefully, and Okamura Ninji said in surprise; This plan is too bold and too risky, and if this plan fails, everything we have done will be in vain, Taro Yamamoto said confidently; Napoleon has a wise saying, there is no impossible word in my dictionary. Okamura Ninji said; I must be very cautious about this plan, for the slightest mistake would cause the most incalculable damage to our Empire of Japan, said Taro Yamamoto; Your Excellency Commander, there is an old saying in China that you can't get a tiger in a tiger's den, you know very well that soldiers are fast, I hope Your Excellency Commander can give me an answer as soon as possible, Okamura Ninji nodded and said; Okay, don't worry, I'll get back to you as soon as I can, Taro Yamamoto said; Since that's the case, then I'll go, if you think about it, I want you to inform me as soon as possible, Okamura Ninji nodded and said; Okay, I'll let you know as soon as possible, Yamamoto immediately gave Okamura Ninji a military salute when he heard this, and then left the headquarters of the Japanese commander.
