Chapter 289: National Prestige (3)

The only distance that can be attacked by the Southern Han is the airfield in Qiongzhou, the airport in Qinzhou, and the airfield in Nanning, and the planes cannot reach the distance, so in order to prevent the Japanese planes from supporting them, the Nanhan Air Force must first destroy these airfields. In order not to attract the attention of the Japanese army, the 1st and 2nd Divisions of the Snow Fox, which had moved to the periphery of Haiphong, did not move.

In this situation, without warning, the Snow Fox plane suddenly took off to bomb the Japanese airfield. When Xue Ru told Huang Jianxiang and them, these people understood why the Southern Han Air Force, which had airplanes, did not participate in any battles no matter what the situation, and it turned out that this air force unit was no one else's to the outside world, and it had always been the French army.

The French flag also flew over the airport, and nothing changed from the plane. According to the intelligence services, the Japanese side did not know that Snow Fox had usurped the air force units of France, and this was related to Ducco's future life and political future, of course, he would not say. It is only to report the damage and crash of the aircraft to the country to make up for the fact that the plane is gone.

The French military department only knew that due to the turbulent situation in the northern Vietnam region, the planes had suffered heavy losses, and there were only a few left, but they did not know the real situation, and the planes were transferred to the hands of Snow Fox. Although the plane was lost too much and the commander of the Air Force was dismissed, he was given enough money to go home and live happily ever after, and the new commander did not know what was going on. As the governor of France, Ducco is far away from mainland France, and he is the emperor of the soil outside, and he does not say that he deceives the country together, so that no one knows.

In this way, the plane in northern Vietnam is actually a snow fox. The Japanese side proposed that all French troops be withdrawn, that the Japanese troops enter northern Vietnam, and that airports other than Hanoi, such as Lao Cai and Lai Chau, be handed over to the Japanese, and the French side agreed.

However, the snow fox suddenly appeared and not only controlled North Vietnam, but also took advantage of the withdrawal of the French army from Hanoi to secretly occupy Hanoi, thus actually controlling the North Vietnam region. In the face of the powerful snow fox, Ando Jili only has a guard detachment of 5,000 people, how dare he attack? When Japan made military adjustments and wanted to increase its troops, Duko, who had secretly surrendered to Snow Fox, would certainly not agree. In order to avoid war with France, Japan could only put pressure on the French government to cede the north, and Japan did not want to occupy Vietnam permanently by eliminating Snow Fox.

Japanese ambitions, and the French are not idiots, how can they believe it? After such a delay, things changed, and Snow Fox had the audacity to establish the Southern Han regime in northern Vietnam, breaking away from French control. At the same time, he sent troops to exterminate the Lao royal family, forced the Lao dynasty to retreat to Phnom Penh, and agreed to cede the northern region to the Southern Han with Xayaburi as the boundary, so that the Southern Han had a land area of 250,000 square kilometers.

Laos, which was controlled by France and belonged to Indochina, had effectively become a dependent province of the Southern Han Dynasty, a change that made Japan overjoyed. In the name of helping France assess the expulsion of snow foxes in northern Vietnam, Japan wantonly massed forces in the South China Sea, and the 3rd Fleet left Hainan Island and sailed into the Beibu Gulf, directly threatening the northern part of Vietnam. At the same time, an additional Marine Corps was added to Haiphong, bringing the strength to 12,000 men.

The newly appointed commander of the Southern Army, Lieutenant General Jun Goharem, decided that the 33rd Division would land in Haiphong and attack Hanoi with a heavy army group to encircle and destroy the main force of Snow Fox. The landing of the 55th Division from Ha Long Port not only sealed the passage between Vietnam and China, but also completely blockaded the Vietnamese coast.

According to the battle plan, the two divisions attacked westward, fought all the way to the border of Vietnam and Burma, and actually occupied the northern part of Vietnam. The Southern Han Dynasty had just established a state, and they urgently needed to integrate internal stability and stabilize the place, and it was impossible to have the ability to fight, so this was the best time for Japan to destroy the snow fox. Just when the Japanese army was actively preparing, what Harem Jun never expected was that Snow Fox was the first to strike, and it was an air force unit they didn't know.

The nearest Japanese airfield to attack was Qinzhou Airfield, where was the 5th Flying Regiment of the Japanese Army, with a total of five squadrons and more than 100 aircraft, which was originally mainly aimed at the air power of China's Fourth Theater of Operations, but the situation in North Vietnam showed that the Southern Army decided to turn the 5th Aircraft Regiment to deal with the Snow Fox in North Vietnam. The number of fighters and bombers also increased to one hundred and twenty.

Qinzhou Airport was heavily guarded, with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and a whole wing of troops was stationed. There is no way, there is a snow fox guerrilla force in the 100,000 mountains, and they have grown to thousands of people, and the guerrilla commander Ma Biao is not a soldier at all, but a group of shameless bandits, who do everything they can.

On another occasion, more than 100 cows, horses, donkeys, and mules were carried with *, and at night the tail of the beast was tied to a firecracker and charged at the airfield. In the dark night, the Japanese army didn't know what it was, so they let these cattle rush into the airport, blew up the Qinzhou airport, and suffered huge losses, and they could not be used for more than ten days.

Then there is to send sharpshooters to block the Japanese sentries, attack the Japanese sentries at night and early in the morning, and once the large army encircles them, they flee into the mountains, and come back as soon as they relax, making the Japanese sentries guarding the airfield the most dangerous profession, and they may be killed at any time. The commander of the airport defense, Yamamoto Utsu Nakasa, could not do anything. The blockade of the 100,000 mountains could not be done without the strength of the entire division, and there was nothing to be done about this guerrilla force.

In fact, the Japanese army did not know that there was a secret path leading to Zhennan Pass from the 100,000 mountains, from where they could cross the Liangshan Mountain and communicate with the north of Vietnam. The number of Ma Biao and Zhang Wang's people has far exceeded 1,000, and there are more than 2,000 people. In peacetime, there is always a part of the training, and only half of the people are active, so the Japanese army thinks that there are about a thousand people.

According to the order of the General Staff of the Southern Han Dynasty, they cooperated with the air force to attack the Qinzhou airfield and completely destroy the Japanese planes.

But Ma Biao and Zhang Wang were full of confidence, and this time they were not the main force attacking them, but mainly from Sky Nanhan's own plane. A few miles away from the airport, in the barren grass and earthen ditches on the hillside, the Qinzhou Snow Fox guerrillas were scattered and hidden for a night, and under the early morning sky, the operator told Ma Biao that an order had been sent for them to start attacking.

More than 2,000 people were divided into four groups and rushed towards the Qinzhou airfield of the Japanese army, and when they approached the airport, the Japanese troops already knew that more than 2,000 people were moving, how could the Japanese army not know. So many people? Yamamoto Yu was taken aback, and immediately reported to the 18th Division to request reinforcements, a Japanese defensive garrison wing, in the face of a force lower than theirs, asked for reinforcements, it must be said that the Japanese army has been frightened by the snow fox, and does not have the courage to fight with other national troops at all.

Inside the airport, Yamamoto Udo ordered his soldiers to enter the defensive position to block the attacking troops outside, and the roar of planes suddenly came from the sky, which made Yamamoto Udo stunned. Which Air Force aircraft was it so early? He raised his binoculars and looked at the sky, and in the southwest direction appeared more than two dozen planes, all bombers, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the sun flag on the wings. Although it is not known which air force, the Japanese aircraft can be sure.

Looking at the flight altitude, the plane intends to land at the airport, so the ground personnel are notified to prepare. The plane flew closer and closer, and the troops on the ground could already see that it was a green fuselage with a huge sun Peugeot under the wings. But there are also many pilots and ground air defense soldiers who find it very strange, why do these planes look so strange, they always feel that something is wrong, but they can't say what is wrong.

At this time, the ground soldiers at the airport sent a paper tube, which was dropped by the sky plane, and Yamamoto Udo saw that it was a Japanese plane from Hainan Island, and they carried out the bombing of Hanoi to return, requesting to land at Qinzhou Airport and replenish fuel and fly back to Hainan Island.

Yamamoto Udo ordered the soldiers to clear the runway and send a signal to agree to the landing of the sky plane, at this time there was a battle outside the airport, it seems that the Snow Fox guerrillas are still the previous tactics, and they do not plan to attack, and the offensive strength is not large. Yamamoto Utsu Nakasa decided that as soon as the reinforcements arrived, he would counterattack and destroy these damned Shina guerrillas.

But he could never have imagined that the plane in the sky was not their own person at all, it was the first bomber squadron of the Southern Han Air Force, led by squadron leader Zhang Mingyue, and took off from Heyang Airport. This is what Snow Fox has been preparing for a few days, painting all the planes in the colors of Japanese planes and spraying them with Japanese military markers. These biplanes are similar in appearance, and the Japanese planes have no contact between the ground and the sky, so they cannot determine the identity of the planes, and can only be identified by human eyes. It was this sloppy eye that Xue Ru hit, which made the Japanese airfield air defense force lose their vigilance and no longer guard against aircraft.

What about the Japanese army's plane? The anti-aircraft artillery units did not make any preparations at all, but only paid attention to the attacking troops from outside. This is also part of the tactical plan, Ma Biao and they are not really attacking at all, but just distracting the Japanese army and creating conditions for a sneak attack by aircraft.

Everything is in the calculation of the snow fox, Zhang Mingyue in the sky saw the signal that the ground agreed to land, and used a gesture to inform the pilot of the sky plane to circle over the airport and aim at the runway, Yamamoto Yu is not an air force, but he also understands airplanes, he is a little strange that the plane can land at this speed? Just before he could figure it out, twenty planes suddenly changed formation in the sky and rushed to the air defense positions around the airfield, and several planes rushed to the planes on the tarmac.

A word flashed in Yamamoto Utsu Nakasa's head, "fooled" and shouted in horror: "Pull the alarm, pull the alarm." "Before the Japanese could react, * fell, although they were all light *, but they were enough, one by one* fell to the ground to release empty artillery positions, and those anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns that did not even take off the camouflage net flew into the sky in the explosion.

The Imperial Army's planes actually attacked the Imperial Army airfield, which made many officers and soldiers unable to react, but there were also people with good brains, and they finally understood why they thought it was strange, because no matter how similar the Hawker fighter was, it was not a Japanese plane, and it was only misled by the sun Peugeot on it that they did not recognize it.

Yamamoto Uto also understood, scolding shamelessly and despicable, but this did not help, the commander of the 5th Flying Regiment of the Air Force Commander Ozawa Hayashi Ken ordered the plane to take off to meet the battle, but unfortunately, when * fell into the air defense position, the five bombers also threw * into the tarmac.

The hundreds of Japanese planes lined up on the tarmac began to explode violently before the pilots boarded the planes. Thick smoke, fire, explosions, Qinzhou Airport became a hell on earth. Zhang Mingyue They have limited flight experience, and they are not veteran pilots, if there is an air battle at this time, it is impossible for the Japanese army to be an opponent at all, but there are no Japanese planes in the sky, and even ground air defense artillery fire is scarce and does not pose a threat.

The No. 1 Bomber Squadron of the Southern Han Air Force was playing to its fullest, flying at low altitude, whistling and dive-dropping bombs, and the fuel depots, ammunition depots, and aircraft air defense positions fell into the Japanese airfields one by one with the fury of revenge. For many years, it was the Japanese military planes that bullied the Chinese, and finally one day they turned upside down, looking at the Japanese troops who were fleeing from the ground in embarrassment, Zhang Mingyue and their mood was very good, many pilots shouted excitedly, and finally they found that there were too few *, and there was no * before they could have fun. Some planes, which were still unsatisfied, fired wildly at the Japanese defensive positions with the aviation machine guns in front.

Not to mention the Japanese, Ma Biao and the others were also dumbfounded, it turned out to be their own plane, and he shouted excitedly: "Brothers, rush up and kill all the devils, kill." ”

The Snow Fox army finally had planes to cooperate with the ground battle, and Zhang Wang and Ma Biao commanded their men to kill at the airport. The Japanese defensive positions, which were strafed by the planes, finally understood the helplessness of the Chinese troops at the beginning, and they were simply unable to resist the double attack of the planes on the ground. A wing of more than 3,000 men guarded against Ma Biao, who had about 2,000 men, and when the Japanese airfield was destroyed and attacked by planes, they could not stop the attack at all, and the guerrillas broke through their defensive positions and entered the airfield.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, Ma Biao, who was born in the special combat team, turned out to be a classic training of Snow Fox, and his guerrillas were not guerrillas composed of those miscellaneous people, and their combat effectiveness would not be lower than that of the regular army, but the name was guerrillas, and they were not afraid of one-on-one with the Japanese army, and the Japanese army had to retreat in the direction of Qinzhou in a melee.

The airport was occupied, Ma Biao was so happy that he couldn't do it, and Zhang Wang shouted anxiously: "Old horse, blow up the facilities and retreat, the devil's reinforcements are coming." ”

Ma Biao was shocked, if the brigade of devils arrived, it would be fine, but as soon as he checked it, what was the bombing, the airport was already a sea of fire, and there were constantly explosions, and he couldn't get close at all, so he had to order the troops to retreat into the mountains. The snow fox Qinzhou guerrillas, who came and went like the wind, didn't even want the booty, and retreated to the 100,000 mountains with all their people.

When the 55th Wing sent by Lieutenant General Sadao Ushijima of the 18th Division of Qinzhou arrived, it was a send-off for the guerrillas. Wing Captain Iida Tanigawa Toshidai Satetsu blushed, looking at the airport that was still burning and exploding, speechless.

When the ground troops came up, Zhang Mingyue and their plane flew away after pulling up, and they couldn't stop leaving, because all the ammunition was gone.

The Qinzhou airport was destroyed, it was completely destroyed, and no more than 30 of the 120 planes remained, but the airport was no longer usable, the fuel depot was bombed, and hundreds of tons of fuel oil were burned, and the Qinzhou airport was the main place of the 3rd Flying Regiment, and there were more planes than Nanning, so it was blown up, and there was no chance to fight back.

In Xue Ru's headquarters in Hanoi, Ouyang Sari held up Huang Jianxiang's telegram with an excited face: "Miss, Your Majesty, the Air Force has won a great victory, the three airports of Nanning, Haikou and Qinzhou have been destroyed, and it is initially estimated that the Japanese army has lost more than 300 aircraft, congratulations to my Majesty the Queen." ”

Xue Ru breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally put a little at ease, it will take a while for the Japanese army to build another airfield to prepare for the plane, and the Air Force is amazing! Looking at Ouyang Sari, he said with a smile: "Poor mouth, I said not to be called the queen, but also Your Majesty." ”

Ouyang Sari smiled and said, "Are you originally the queen?" Why don't you let me call, I look at Queen Elizabeth, how to compare with our Miss Queen, this is respect for you, Zhang Xiangye said. ”

Ouyang Sari is a queen and a minister, and he also made a minister, which caused a burst of laughter in the war room. Xue Ru, a feudal sovereign state, is just a formality, in fact, everything is built according to the model of a modern state, and everyone treats these as jokes, some like games, and not so serious.

In the battle of the three armed services, the air force was the first to win, so what about the navy and the army? That's what everyone cares about. The air force can use this way, everyone in the army is not worried, Qiao Han has more than 20,000 people and two divisions, and he can't beat more than 10,000 Japanese troops, he has to commit suicide by hitting the wall, but Wen Shaodong's naval strength is too weak, and everyone, including Xue Ru, is not too confident in his heart.
