On the 19th, at about four o'clock in the morning, on the Kaga, as the navigator kept waving the flag in his hand, one fighter plane after another took off into the air, and soon flew away like the sea where the "Toyama Maru" was located.

Yamamoto, Koizumi and Tsukahara stood on the deck to witness this, and Koizumi asked Yamamoto, "Your Excellency, are you sure this works?" I mean, it wouldn't be good if the officers and men of the Osaka Division rebelled. ”

Before Yamamoto could reply, Tsukahara sneered: "Koizumi, you said those merchants would rebel? Hehe, you're looking too highly of them. If they had the courage, would yesterday's humiliating scene still happen? Rest assured, it won't backfire. ”

Yamamoto continued: "Tsukahara is right, the Osaka division is in rebellion, and this kind of thing will definitely not happen. Koizumi, there is something wrong with this, but we have no other choice. If they were a little more aggressive, why would I resort to such a strategy? I only hope that this time, under the coercion of the mountain tribes, the blood of the Yamato people in their bodies will be burned once, and in that case, even if they are brought to a military court after the war, I will admit it. ”

"Your Excellency, I don't agree with what you say. How did you end up court-martialed? If that happens, the empire will be over......," Tsukahara said excitedly.

Yamamoto waved his hand, not letting him continue.

Yamamoto did this, and he really had to suffer. The Hainan Campaign lasted for several days, and although the Combined Fleet had an unprecedentedly strong naval and air superiority, it was never able to translate it into actual results. However, at a time when the infantry was tight, the Osaka Division's Hiromura Wing was afraid of battle, and if extraordinary measures were not taken at this time, the Osaka Division would not only not be able to play its due role, but would also drag down the progress of the entire war. The Combined Fleet is now fighting in a foreign land, relying on supplies from the rear for everything it needs, and the food and drink of nearly 20,000 men has become a major factor that can affect the progress of the war. Instead of raising 20,000 people for nothing, why don't you take extraordinary measures to oppress their role?

On the "Toyama Maru", Sawada Shigeru looked at the fighter plane hovering overhead, and his face was quite ugly.

"These admiralty bastards are so deceitful, what is that? Division commander, we must not give in, I don't believe they really dare to bomb us," a young man named Akichiro Aramura hissed in front of him, and as soon as he finished speaking, he attracted a chorus of approval.

"Your Excellency, even if it is only for the dignity of the Osaka Division, we cannot bend our knees and give in!"

"Your Excellency, there is nothing to hesitate, they really dare to bomb us, we will fight with them!"

……

"Bage, shut up. Don't you know the temperament of Commander Yamamoto? I tell you, he's going to do such crazy things! Alright, get ready to land. Tell the soldiers that if you don't fight bravely this time, you may be killed as a deserter by your own people - you can not think about yourself, but please think about your parents and your wife and children, even for them, you must be a man......"

Before Sawada Shigeru could finish his words, a Type 99 fighter plane numbered 1003 suddenly whizzed past him about a few dozen meters above his head, and the huge roar of its engine directly drowned out his scream.

"Bastard! Do you want to murder Lieutenant General Sawada? Desert Village looked up at 1003 and yelled.

It was the mountains who dared to fly 1003 on the head of Sawada Shigeru, as if he heard the scolding of the deserted village, he just pulled up the fighter, and immediately flew back with another big turn, and then flew over the heads of Sawada and others at a closer distance, this time, the air turbulence caused by the 1003 speeding through even scraped off the military hats of several devils.

Sawada gritted his teeth, stared at 1003, and suddenly roared, "Do you really want to be killed by the Navy's aviation?" Eight grids, don't organize a landing right away! ”

"Hay!" This time, no one dared to disobey him.

Among the devils of the Hongcun Wing, some people have already recognized that 1003 is the fighter plane that killed many comrades yesterday, and they boarded the landing craft under the expulsion of the officers, and at the same time scolded the mountains with all the foul language they could think of, and some of them swore that the emperor swore and said: Bage, what is arrogant, one day, Lao Tzu will beat you down.

Just when the devil infantry of the diversion fleet began to land again under the intimidation of fighter planes, in a coconut grove southwest of Baida Village, Qifang Town, Changjiang, dozens of cadet soldiers in camouflage uniforms were busy. About a hundred meters away from them, hundreds of students in the same costume lay on their stomachs among the grass and bushes. A little further on, there are some self-defense forces dressed as local villagers. Although the weapons of these SDF members are extremely rudimentary and primitive, their morale is very high. Huang Jiaqing's feat yesterday not only inspired all the cadets, but also infected the officers and men of the Hainan Self-Defense Force.

The established strategy has changed, from luring the enemy into depth to resisting step by step, and Guo Yucheng's work has been much better. Out of nostalgia for their homeland, the SDF members are naturally more willing to resist than flee.

The forward reconnaissance detachment sent back information that there were about 1,000 devils advancing towards Qifang Town, so Xue Dehuai, commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 505th Regiment of the 39th Brigade of the 13th Division of the 13th Division, who was responsible for the defense of Qifang Town, decided to use this coconut grove to ambush the devils in this department in order to delay their attack.

The enemy force detected by the reconnaissance team was none other than Omurosugi's brigade. The devils of this department witnessed the incredible scene under the city of Changjiang yesterday, and after discovering that the combat strength of the Chinese army was amazing, they rushed into the primeval forest that seemed relatively safe outside. Escaping the battle, Komuro originally wanted to take people back to the landing position after dark, however, because he received a reprimanding telegram from the command of the diversion fleet, Komuro was worried that he might carry the black pot for Kazuo Hiromura if he went back directly without doing anything, so he gritted his teeth and simply took his men to nest in the woods as a turtle with a shrunken head. The devils of the Komuro Brigade were very much against this decision at first because of their timidity, but after receiving the second telegram from the headquarters, they applauded Komuro's wise decision. In this telegram, Yamamoto formally issued an order to all parts of the Osaka Division in the diversion fleet, stating that tomorrow the aviation unit would be appointed as a supervisor, urging them to fight a dignified battle. Thinking that if they returned to the landing position, they would fight tomorrow under the supervision of the air force, the devils of the Komuro Brigade thought that it would be better to wander outside, so they simply turned off the telegraph and hid in the woods with all their hearts.

After dawn, considering that Changjiang had been captured and the next battle would begin in the northeast area of Changjiang, Komuro sent his men to find a safe hiding place a little farther away. Then, after a comprehensive comparison, they took a fancy to the woods southwest of Qifang Town and turned to this place.

In this way, there is the above scene.
