1045 The Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi broke out

...... "Crazy people, what a bunch of crazy people who don't want to die!" Jason, I suddenly regret leaving with these crazy people now, now it's okay, whether I can go back alive to see my lovely daughter, I'm afraid I'm going to put a question mark again! ”

Looking at the commandos who were as excited as if they had been beaten and shouted that they were going to rush into Quzhou Airport to rob the devil's plane after Duan Peng raised his arms and shouted, Meier, one of the US pilots who participated in the air raid on Tokyo, couldn't help but complain.

Of course, there was more of a smile on his face.

Jason laughed from the sidelines, "Meier, but I like these crazy people, it was this group of crazy people who broke into the Japanese barracks and rescued me!" ”

The two spoke English, but Duan Peng and his commando team members had specialized in Japanese and English, so they naturally understood the conversation between the two.

Duan Pengle said: "Meier, Jason, you are laughing at us when you say that.

You guys dare to fly a plane to the Japanese mainland to bomb other people's capitals, you are not bad at all compared to not dying! ”

"No no no, Duan, I'm about to regret dying now! Oh my God, I almost died! ”

Mel said very exaggeratedly and funny.

Duan Peng and the team members were amused by Meier, and everyone realized that these Yankees seemed to be full of humor cells, like comedians.

As for the opinions, they were quickly agreed.

Maier said undoubtedly: "After grabbing the plane, the best one must be left to me!" ”

Duan Peng was not to be outdone: "This kind of thing can't be done casually, Maier, although we are friends, we still have to rely on our own abilities!" ”

In this way, a group of crazy people, two people who don't want to die, soon began to discuss how to use their men and horses, under the noses of the devils, to find a way to snatch the plane at Quzhou Airport.

Quzhou is located in the west of Zhejiang, south of Nanping, Fujian, west of Jiangxi Shangrao, JDZ, north of AH Huangshan, east of Jinhua, Lishui, Hangzhou three cities in the province, has an important strategic position.

Quzhou Airport was built in 1933 as a civilian airport and was used on a very small scale, even so small that it could only accommodate a few aircraft.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War on July 7, 1937, during the Battle of Songhu, Chiang's Hangzhou Airport was occupied by the Japanese army.

This Quzhou Airport, which was originally unknown, suddenly became very important.

As a result, the Nationalist Government began to use manpower and material resources to prepare for the expansion of Quzhou Airport, and after the Japanese army detected this intention of Chiang's army, it immediately sent flying troops to bomb Quzhou Airport in an attempt to destroy it.

The two sides also launched one tug-of-war after another around Quzhou Airport.

Of course, the main thing was to use the air forces of the Japanese army against the land troops of the Chiang army at the Quzhou airfield.

Later, at a great cost, Jiang Jun successfully expanded Quzhou Airport.

It was only after February 1938 that the Japanese army crossed the Qiantang River and marched westward along the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line, and after the Japanese army pressed the border, Quzhou Airport was not worried, and the military government was afraid that Quzhou Airport would be occupied and used by the Japanese army, so it hurriedly ordered the military and civilians to work together to destroy the airport in a hurry, and it would never be left to the Japanese army.

The result is dramatic.

The devils were not in a hurry to seize Quzhou Airport.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the beaten Yankees finally entered the war.

As a result, the strategic position of Quzhou Airport is becoming more and more important.

As a result, Chiang's junta began to rebuild the Quzhou airfield and demanded that at least 50 American heavy bombers be parked.

For this reason, the military and civilians in the Quzhou area spent a considerable price, and I don't know how much blood and tears were shed, so that the Quzhou airport was rebuilt.

The importance of Quzhou Airport.

Even Doolittle was ordered to carry out the combat mission of the air raid on Tokyo, Japan, and according to the instructions of his superiors, after the task was completed, the airport where the plane temporarily landed was also selected at Quzhou Airport.

However, there was a small accident on the way, and Doolittle and his entourage failed to successfully get in touch with the radio communication department of Quzhou Airport, and finally failed to land at Quzhou Airport, and were pursued by the Japanese army halfway and forced to land in the Quzhou area.

And the time chosen by Duan Peng and his entourage is also very interesting.

In North China, the Japanese army launched a May Day sweep on an unprecedented scale.

A large-scale military blockade was carried out on the battlefields of Shandong and Shanxi, and at the same time, the intention was to seek the logistics station of the Eighth Route Army, the Jizhong Military Region.

And in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi region.

The Emperor was furious that Doolittle and his entourage had successfully bombed Tokyo, the capital of Japan, and had severely damaged the face of the Japanese army, and soon ordered China to send troops to immediately destroy all Chinese air bases along the coast of Zhejiang-Jiangxi region.

β€”β€”Lishui, Xinzhou, Yushan and other airports.

The devils are also afraid, afraid that Britain and the United States will use China's coastal airfields as a springboard to carry out air strikes on the Japanese mainland.

At the same time, it was also revenge, vowing to completely arrest the American pilots who fled to the Zhejiang-Jiangxi region after bombing Tokyo.

Therefore, during this period of time, when Duan Peng and his entourage were secretly transferring on the ground, they could still encounter reconnaissance planes of devils whizzing through the air from time to time.

The Japanese army launched a continuous bombardment of the coastal airfields of the Chinese army in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi region.

Among them, Quzhou Airport, which is strategically important, has become the primary target of the Japanese army's military bombing.

This operation was named the No. 1 operation by the Japanese military department, and later renamed the Zhejiang-Jiangxi operation.

According to the operational plan of the General Headquarters of the Japanese Army's Chinese Dispatch Army, the 13th Army, stationed in the Suhuai area, launched an attack from Hangzhou.

At the same time, the Japanese 11th Army responded from Nanchang.

Not only that, the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army specially contacted the Commander-in-Chief of the Dispatch Army in North China, Okamura Ninji, and clearly stated in the communication:

The North China Front was required to send troops to the greatest extent to assist in the battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi.

It is a coincidence to say that the timing of this Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle has come.

Okamura Ningji, an old devil, is leading the North China Front Army to launch an unprecedented large-scale May Day sweep operation plan against the Eighth Route Army and the Jizhong Military Region!

After learning that the headquarters of the dispatch army decided to launch the battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi in the near future.

Okamura is also quite helpless, this is really a wave of unsettled.

It's just that since the General Headquarters has given the order, he naturally can't stand idly by.

In the end, Okamura urgently convened the chiefs of staff of the various armies, and after collective discussions and analysis of the battle situation, he decided:

On the premise of not affecting the operation in central Hebei, each army transferred some troops and temporarily increased them to Central China to assist in the battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi.

The situation is changing rapidly.

On the battlefield of China.

In one fell swoop, two large-scale battles between the Chinese army and the Japanese invaders that attracted the attention of all countries in the world.

One was a frontal battle between the anti-Japanese armed forces, mainly the regular Chinese army, and the main force of the Japanese Central China Front in the Zhejiang and Jiangxi regions.

One was behind enemy lines, affecting Shanxi, Shandong, northern Henan and even Inner Mongolia and other areas, a large-scale confrontation between the anti-Japanese armed forces dominated by the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese invaders.

The Chinese have once again demonstrated to the world what the blood and dignity of the descendants of China are with their actual military actions.

β€” at least on the surface.

In the hinterland of the Taihang base area, the former enemy headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

It was learned that the Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi broke out.

After analysis, the fuse that led to the outbreak of the Battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi was actually caused by the air raid on Tokyo by Doolittle and his entourage, and the generals of the Eighth Route Army at the general headquarters were also a little stunned for a while.

This was a big surprise.

When the news came, I learned that the little devils in North China, who had originally focused all their efforts on the Taihang base area and the battlefields in Shandong, Inner Mongolia, and Hebei, also sent troops to reinforce Central China.

The boss couldn't help but laugh and said: "In the past, when this devil always said that when this devil was sweeping our base area, Jiang Jun had been standing by and watching, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

But this time, we don't want to say such things.

Look, as soon as the anti-sweeping operation on our side began, Chairman Jiang directly started the Battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi to indirectly respond to our operations on the battlefield behind enemy lines, which is a good thing!

If we win this battle, I will have to send a telegram in person to thank Chairman Chiang. ”

As soon as these words came out, the conference room was filled with a relaxed atmosphere, and everyone laughed.

The deputy chief of the general staff said with a smile: "That's right, but if Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, and Wang Crazy are here, I'm afraid they will have to complain about the chairman!" ”

"Oh, Chief of Staff, what do you mean by that?"

The deputy chief of general staff said with a smile: "Li Yunlong will jump out and scold, damn it, just this little devil, it's not enough fun for us to kill ourselves!" ”

The words fell, and everyone laughed.

But if you think about it carefully, this is really Li Yunlong's kid's temperament.

……

International aspects.

After the outbreak of the Battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi, the United States, Britain and other countries were still very happy, and they were also full of expectations for this battle.

Since the outbreak of the Pacific War, the U.S. military thought that this end would end soon, and they would take the role of justice as a victor and easily defeat the Japanese invaders who took the lead.

As for the Chinese army, which has been fighting the battlefield in China for many years, they probably didn't look down on it very much.

Rookies peck at each other!

China's industrial system is really backward, and although Japan's domestic industrial level is much higher than China's, it is a drop in the bucket compared to the United States.

Until the outbreak of the Pacific War, the U.S. military was completely plunged into a bitter battle, and the daily casualties continued to spread, and even many U.S. troops were beaten out of the battlefield by devils with fear of Japan.

These once rampant and arrogant GIs truly realized the strength of their opponent, the Japanese army.

Only then did I realize what kind of formidable opponents the Chinese troops were facing when they fought the Chinese battlefield.

They suddenly felt admiration for the indomitable fighting will of the Chinese soldiers.

In particular, some war correspondents from various countries filmed and interviewed the troops of the Eighth Route Army operating behind enemy lines in the Chinese battlefield about the units of the Eighth Route Army that were constantly attacking the Japanese army and winning battles behind enemy lines.

It was an amazing anti-Japanese armed force behind enemy lines!

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Chinese Nationalist Government followed the United States in declaring war on Japan.

In the same month.

The National Revolutionary Army was victorious in the Third Battle of Changsha.

Britain, the United States and other countries finally realized that China, as an ally, does not seem to be useless, and they have really paid the strength and price for being able to contain the Japanese army on the Chinese battlefield for so many years.

After this war.

China's international status has improved considerably.

By March '42, the Chinese Expeditionary Force had entered Burma to assist the British and Burmese forces in their fight against the Japanese army.

The Chinese military has officially become an indispensable force in the alliance against the aggressor, and it is internationally recognized.

Of course, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for people to recognize you, and it takes your strength to recognize you.

It's like you need your Chinese expeditionary force to fight in Burma.

Just like after the victory of the Third Battle of Changsha, Britain and the United States and other countries were actually secretly urging the Nationalist Government and urging Mr. Chairman to strive for greater glory and contain more of the main forces of the Japanese army on the Chinese battlefield, so as to indirectly alleviate the pressure on Japan in the Pacific Theater and the Southeast Asian Theater.

The same is true of the Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi.

…… It's just that His Excellency, who was still far away in Chongqing, didn't think so.

Niang Xipi, he scolded in his office, what is the reason, the United States used the air force to bomb your little Japan's Tokyo, you little devil does not seek revenge from the US military, why did you run to our Zhejiang-Jiangxi region to attack?

Could it be that as the old saying goes, persimmons pick soft pinching?

Your Excellency, Chairman of the National People's Congress who was still calm and relaxed, could have sat firmly in the Diaoyutai and watched the battles between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army behind enemy lines in the east, the confrontations between the US and Japanese forces in the Pacific Theater in the west, and occasionally paid attention to the war situation in the Burma region.

After all, the flames of war will not affect themselves.

Now it's okay, and Chairman of the Committee is also involved in this war.

At this time.

The international countries believe that the time is excellent, and on the battlefield behind enemy lines, the Eighth Route Army is making a fuss, and the Japanese army is using an unprecedented scale of troops to carry out a sweep.

In the third Battle of Changsha, Chiang's army won one.

If the battle between Zhejiang and Jiangxi in front of him, Chairman Jiang can win another game.

It can really be said that the future is settled, and the devil is basically declining.

This is the war that the international community is looking forward to.

It is a war that the Chinese people are looking forward to.

It was the battle that the Eighth Route Army was looking forward to.

It is the patriotic officers of the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army, all looking forward to the first battle!

The battle was on the verge of breaking out.

……

Monsi area.

Knowing the outbreak of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle, even Li Yunlong, who always likes to squeeze a few words from the chairman on weekdays, had to praise twice: "Damn, it's interesting, this big battle is still crowded together."

It's not easy for our Chairman Jiang to come back to you, if we can both win this time, this little devil can basically be said to be a grasshopper after the autumn, and it won't be able to jump for a few days! ”

Kong Jie just smiled at this.

What else could he say?

Does he want to tell Li Yunlong that in this battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi, Jiang Jun will be defeated very badly in the end?
