Chapter 13 Forms of Misconduct
After Hao Dajian met Lu Xiangyang and the convoy, he found that the Japanese cavalry hiding in the pine forest suddenly poured out. www.biquge.info However, these defeated dogs did not move in the direction of the mountain troops and the convoys, they fled in the opposite direction.
Hao Dajian felt that it was a pity that the Japanese army's death charge in World War II was not staged. If the Japanese cavalry dared to charge, the 20mm cannon of the M2 "Bradley" infantry tank would definitely make their fate worse than their juniors in World War II.
"Ma Dan, the devil is not as loyal and brave as the drama plays, so he escaped!" Hao Dajian was indignant that he didn't see the death charge.
"The book is a nation that invented the name of tactical transfer and tactical guidance, don't take everyone for a fool." Li Sifeng, as a qualified praiser, spoke in a timely manner.
However, Koike Shunichi's retreat was like a beacon pointing out the direction of the main force of the Japanese army, which saved Hao Dajian a lot of things.
In fact, as soon as Koike Junichi came out of the pine forest, he found a large "kite" in the sky. It's just that even if he knew the most cutting-edge technology in Europe, he wouldn't know that the big "kite" in the sky was called an airplane. It wasn't until nine years before the Wright brothers built the first truly powered aircraft.
Koike Shunichi noticed that the large "kite" had a large range of movement, and he estimated that it should be a primitive hot air balloon such as a "Kong Ming lantern".
It's no wonder that he had such an idea. After the Qing army was defeated by the Japanese army in Korea, it was broken through by the Japanese army at the Yalu River defense line, and the Japanese army drove straight into Haicheng to stop the offensive. At this time, Fengtian, the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty, and Shanhaiguan, the gateway of Beiping, were all within the scope of the Japanese army's attack.
The panicked Qing court actually made many strange moves, such as inviting Feng Zicai, who was already old, to go out of the mountain, hoping that he could repeat the miracle of the Sino-French War. This is not the most unreliable, the Qing court actually sent people to Sichuan to find the descendants of the Shu vine armor soldiers during the Three Kingdoms period, hoping to form a rattan armor soldier to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army.
These strange acts, under the leaky secrecy system of the Qing court, were quickly transmitted back to Japan by Japanese spies. The Japanese army has always talked about this as a joke.
Therefore, Koike Shunichi took it for granted that this heavenly thing was a "Kong Ming lantern" or something like that, and regarded it as another strange creation of the Qing court praying for victory in the war. But he completely ignored the fact that his troops had just been defeated by the enemy's advanced weapons.
No matter what Koike Shunichi on the ground thought of the North American Mustang fighter plane piloted by Hao Dajian, the plane still flew in the direction of the Japanese army at high altitude.
"Here is Vulture No. 1, the main forces of the Japanese army were found, repeated, the main forces of the Japanese army were found." After having the light of Koike Shunichi, Li Sifeng found the Japanese army without much effort.
At this time, there was no such thing as air defense in the armies of the whole world. A large number of Japanese troops and supplies were crowded together without any camouflage, and as long as they found the right direction, it was difficult for the reconnaissance planes not to find these thousands of troops.
"This is Vulture No. 1, and the main force of the Japanese army, about 3,000 to 4,000 people, with infantry and artillery, and a lot of baggage. Request an attack. Hao Dajian saw the formation of the Japanese army's hedgehogs, and the baggage was piled up again. It's a simple course to maximize the effect of air strikes. If you don't bombard, he's going to be earth-shattering, it's just a shame for his Chinese bloodline.
"Negative." Zhao Yi looked at the list of ammunition after the inventory of the green paint area, and reluctantly rejected Hao Dajian's request for air raids.
There are too few aerial bombs, in addition to the 7 Mk82 low-drag aerial bombs hanging on the North American Mustang fuselage, there are 12 Mk series aerial bombs left in the base, including 5 "Paveway" laser-guided bombs. 20 Hellfire air-to-surface missiles, as well as a number of cluster rockets.
At this time, launching an air attack on the Japanese army in a dense formation will undoubtedly bring huge losses to this Japanese army. However, the whole of Japan was already in motion, and this loss could not stop it. The traverser will face a steady stream of Japanese troops.
Zhao Yi thinks that the hole card of the air raid is not easy to reveal. Not to mention the distance, just because the base is so close to the coast, not to mention the Japanese landing and raid, it is to set up naval guns on the beach to bombard the green paint area, is he defending it or not? He did not know the range of naval guns during the First Sino-Japanese period, but he could not rule out this possibility.
If there were really eye-catching ironclad ships bombarding them with naval guns on the other side of the coast, there would be plenty of ammunition reserves to beat these thin-skinned Japanese ships to Dad.
"Vulture No. 1, searching for a Japanese landing site in the northeast direction, there is intelligence that the Japanese army has a large landing site in the northeast direction at Huayuankou. In addition, after discovering the landing site, they searched south along the coastline, and another unit of the Japanese army was marching towards the Qing army in Jinzhou. ”
Zhao Yi believed that at this time, it was the most important thing to completely grasp the movements of the Japanese army and the Qing army, as well as the situation of the entire Liaodong Peninsula.
As for this force of 3,000 to 4,000 thousand people, it is completely possible to defeat him on the ground, and there is no need to use valuable reserves of aerial bombs.
"Rogerthat." Hao Dajian turned and flew in the northeast direction, not forgetting to make a childish gesture of a pistol to the Japanese soldiers on the ground, expressing his dissatisfaction with the fact that he did not go on a killing spree on D-day.
"I'm rubbing, what's going on, are they landing in kayaks?" The North American Mustang quickly found the landing site of the Japanese army.
In fact, the entire battle of the Golden Brigade took place on the southernmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, which was no more than 200 kilometers away in a straight line. With a speed of nearly 450 km/h, the Mustang can make one rotation per hour around the entire area covered by the campaign. It's not hard to find a landing site that has already been shown the way.
"Or else? Do you expect to see the landing craft crashing on the beach? Li Sifeng complained.
At this time, of course, the Japanese army was not using any kayaks to land, but it was indeed using manpower to transport landing personnel and materials. At this 3-kilometer-long landing site, the Japanese army kept moving supplies to the assembly area deep along the coast. On the sea, there are many wooden dinghys powered by human paddles.
There were 22 large ships in the sea near the landing site, six of which were clearly equipped with naval guns.
After taking the photo, Hao Dajian turned around and searched south along the coastline for traces of another Japanese army attacking Jinzhou.
This road, which was built along the coast and the North River, was called Jinzhou Avenue, and another Japanese army, led by Major General Nogi Noshinori, was marching rapidly towards Jinshu. These were all in the eyes of Hao Dajian. The vanguard of the Japanese army was still light cavalry, and it was still the style of rushing forward regardless of it. Obviously, they did not know the tragic fate of the other vanguard team on Fuzhou Avenue.
Continuing to fly south, after a while, I saw the Qing army building fortifications in a place where the terrain was still dangerous.
It is said that it is still dangerous because the entire Liaodong Peninsula is basically a hilly terrain, and how dangerous can the dangerous terrain be? However, these two highlands occupied by the Qing army happened to choke the only small bridge on this section of Jinzhou Avenue.
When the Japanese attacked the Qing position, they could not deploy many troops, and the Qing defenders could only face and occupy a comparable number of Japanese troops.
It's just that from the air, the Qing army obviously doesn't have a few cannons, and this fortification is so repaired that Hao Dajian, an air force pilot, doesn't want to complain.
I took pictures again and turned to leave. Hao Dajian continued to investigate in the direction of Lushun, Jinzhou. Since there was no GPS navigation, this route was his first flight, and he had to speed up the reconnaissance to complete the reconnaissance mission when the visibility was still good, and then return home.
An hour later, the Mustang completed its reconnaissance mission and returned to the Green Paint Zone base.
In the command center, Zhao Yi was comparing the map they had captured with the topographical photos taken by the North American wild horses.
Soon he finally figured out the location of the green paint area, which was located near the Thirty Libao in Dalian City in the later generations, and the place where Lu Xiangyang and the Japanese army fought today was probably near Pulandian in the later generations.
The place where the Qing army was deployed was about 4 kilometers away from Jinzhou City, and judging from the results of aerial reconnaissance, the combat effectiveness of this Qing army was very poor. It was a matter of time before it was defeated, and it was a matter of time before the city of Jinzhou fell.
Then once Jinzhou falls, the green paint area will face the Japanese army in the north and south. Although the current relationship with the Qing army is still unclear, in line with the principle of picking persimmons and picking soft pinching, Zhao Yi is willing to have the Qing army to the south.
"Lao Lu, that's the way the current situation is, what do you think?" Zhao Yi handed Lu Xiangyang a cigarette.
Lu Xiangyang fought a battle with the Japanese army today, and he has an intuitive life about the combat strength of the Japanese army. Moreover, he has ten years of experience in the PLA, and his experience is not comparable to that of Zhao Yi, the so-called captain who has been a "crash soldier" for six months.
"The form is not very optimistic, judging from the results of aerial reconnaissance, the Japanese army has invested at least 12,000 troops on the Liaodong Peninsula." Lu Xiangyang turned out to smoke and lit it himself.
"Even if the current logistics and transportation are backward, if you pinch the head and remove the tail, you can also remove 4,000 logistics people. That's still the Japanese army, which still has a real 8,000 troops. Lu Xiangyang spat out a smoke ring.
"The Qing army can't count on it, and everyone knows the result of history, and the final outcome of this battle is the Lushun Massacre. It's not a good battle. Lu Xiangyang sighed.
"Lao Lu, when you talk about backward logistics and transportation, I have such an idea, if you see if it is feasible, my main combat intention will be delayed. We only wounded ten fingers of the Japanese army coming from our north, and kept pointing at him, dragging it as much as possible, rather than crushing or annihilating it. The other Japanese army attacking Jinzhou, we thought of striking at their heavy weapons, hoping that the Qing army could rely on the walls of Jinzhou to withstand the Japanese army without heavy weapons. Zhao Yi simply said what he thought.
"Not bad idea, so that the Japanese army will have to provide logistical supplies to the two attacking forces. It's November, and the weather is getting colder and colder, and the more logistical pressure there is. I just heard Yang Xiaodong say that at this time, the Japanese army was confronting the Qing army in Haicheng, and they could not fully support the war at the southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula. Lu Xiangyang agreed with Zhao Yi's idea. Yang Xiaodong is the freshman student who "knows best" about the history of the Japanese invasion of China mentioned above.
"Well, Haicheng probably should snow in mid-November, the logistical pressure there is even greater, and it's farther from the coastline." Zhao Yi added.
"Yes, we can rely on the superiority of night vision equipment to infiltrate the enemy's lines at night and disrupt their supply lines to the rear of the Japanese army." Dunlop was also involved in the meeting.
"We have too few aerial bombs, otherwise we can break through the engagement and directly attack their supply lines, and the entire front line is completely within the OV-10D attack range." Hao Dajian angrily brushed his sense of existence.
"Bear with me, let's see what supplies the so-called director team of D+15 will provide, if there are more aerial bombs, we can slowly grind these more than 10,000 Japanese troops to death here." Zhao Yi said.
