1233 The results of continuous fermentation
- Japanese aircraft carrier "Amagi".
Construction began on October 1, 42 at the Nagasaki shipyard of Mitsubishi Corporation in Japan, and the original plan was to launch on October 15, 1943 and be incorporated into the First Air Force.
Due to the rapid progress of Okamura's plan for Operation No. 1 in southern China, and the time node was greatly advanced, the Japanese side specifically asked Mitsubishi to speed up the construction of the Tiancheng aircraft carrier.
As a result, the Amagi aircraft carrier was officially launched about three months earlier than originally planned.
Under that night rain, when the aviation unit of the Eighth Route Army crossed the ocean, attacked all the way, and after successfully completing the pre-planned air raid mission, it happened to collide with it again during the evacuation, and seven or eight armor-piercing incendiary bombs were projected in one go, and in the moment of the huge explosion, it was swallowed up by artillery fire in an instant, and the one that completely sank in the middle of the sea was called a "super large ship" when Chief of Staff Liu Doolittle and his party reported.
It was in the later stage of the war that the Japanese army tightened its belts and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build the aircraft carrier Amagi with great difficulty in order to survive.
As a result, it has only been in the water for less than a week.
And so he returned to the arms of his "Mother of the Sea".
Including the surroundings of the Amagi at that time, some Japanese warships escorting the ship, as well as some large oil tankers and transport ships, were all blown up, which became an unexpected gain in the mouths of Chief of Staff Liu and Doolittle and other generals.
Until the bombing troops returned safely and reported the incident, Chief of Staff Liu and his entourage still did not know what a big result of this so-called windfall was.
Other than that.
When the Eighth Route Army's secret air raid was launched, all crew members were silent throughout the whole process, even when they went to Nagasaki to carry out the air raid, they dropped bombs normally, and then pulled up to the place where the formation was assembled.
Except for the navigator and the submarine force to confirm the direction, none of the crew members made a sound during the whole radio channel, and everyone held their breath and celebrated wildly when they returned to the advance airfield.
This is also a smokescreen made by Kong Jie to prevent the devil's radio listening equipment from listening to radio exchanges.
Without the exchange of information, the devils could not figure out where the air fleet came from, and the direction of the subsequent take-off and search could not be determined in a short time.
This is also one of the important factors for Chief of Staff Liu, Doolittle and his entourage of bombing troops to return smoothly.
After successfully returning home, he sat back in the conference room of the command headquarters, feeling like a dream, and the task of the air raid was completed, Doolittle sighed with emotion: "Kong, you are really a talent in aviation command and deployment, and you are also a genius in aviation tactics. β
Actually, by this time.
Although after listening to the report of Chief of Staff Liu and his entourage, Kong Jie was relatively satisfied with the results of the air raid, he also did not realize what exaggerated results the air raid achieved by Chief of Staff Liu and Doolittle and his entourage.
But there was one thing he expected.
"After the end of this air raid, the little devil will inevitably set off a crazy revenge, the storm is coming, let's prepare early, let the storm come more violently!"
When the night air raid was launched.
The relevant commanders of the Shandong Military Region and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army were all waiting in the temporary airport duty room for the good news of the returning troops.
Mr. He, Mr. Nie, Commander Lu, Commander Fu, etc., also stayed up all night.
No way, such an exciting action, everyone is waiting for the news of triumph, who has the mood to really sleep soundly?
Until all the commands were notified of the success of the operation.
The advent was completely excited, and they didn't have to sleep anymore, but changed to a night-long carnival.
In Yan'an, that night, I don't know how many people had tears all over their clothes and lost sleep all night.
Kong Jie was naturally not in the mood to sleep, and rushed to the general headquarters overnight for a meeting to discuss with the deputy chief of general staff, deputy commander-in-chief, and other generals the next step in dealing with the bombing operation.
Kong Jie asserted: "This operation is more smooth than we expected, once the little devil receives the news, the revenge against our Jiaodong region may be even more crazy than expected."
Let's make more adequate preparations! β
In addition, Kong Jie specially proposed: "This time the matter is not small, but the credit is also not small, I think if this gift is given, the chairman may have to issue a medal, reward us with gold bars or something like flowers!"
It is better to issue a circular, and then invite some relevant reporters and officers of the propaganda department on the Jiang army side to come over and make a joint statement, characterizing this matter as a joint action between our Eighth Route Army and the Jiang army.
Or to put it more simply, to say that this air raid on the mainland is an unprecedented result achieved by our Chinese Revolutionary Army since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
After all, the number of our Eighth Route Army on the bright side is still the 18th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army! β
The deputy chief of the general staff said with a smile: "Okay, you are Kong Jie, you have a belly of flowers, but I think this matter is okay, so I will do it!" β
No way, the success of this operation has too much impact.
The Eighth Route Army had to find a way to share the pressure.
Therefore, after the flight team returned, in accordance with Kong Jie's suggestion, the Communications Department of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters immediately contacted the chairman's office through an encrypted radio station to make a report.
At the same time, the chairman of the NPC National Committee was invited to send a working group to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Licheng to hold a joint press conference and issue a joint statement on the air raid on Nagasaki.
On the side of the Eighth Route Army, after the bomber unit returned to Jiaodong to refuel, it returned to Huangyadong Airport.
On the other side, a press conference is being prepared.
But he said that the news quickly spread to the Chongqing Military Commission.
The headmaster was shocked and fell silent again, and shut himself in his office by himself, almost without a drop of water for the whole day.
When he came out again, the whole person's expression was very bad.
There was a fire in his stomach, but he didn't know who to vent to.
However, a secretary who was not long-sighted asked: "Commission, Balu is so bold, he dared to sneak attack the Japanese army at night, this time it is estimated that he has completely stabbed the nest of the worm, and the little devil has always been eager to retaliate, and he will definitely retaliate madly."
But the Eighth Road came to us to apply for some joint statement, and I think it is clear that they want to cause trouble and let us suffer together!
We can't be on the eighth road, I think it's better to refuse directly! β
"Idiot!"
The principal scolded angrily, "Refusing to make a joint statement, pushing such a big result out of the door, the Battle of Yuxianggui has been defeated one after another, and our National Revolutionary Army has completely lost face, is it possible to regain it?" β
Eight roads, this is a conspiracy.
The principal was also helpless, pinching his nose and admitting it, who made the battle of Yuxianggui really embarrassing, and if he didn't get some results and find a fig leaf, he would completely become a laughing stock in the world.
Of course, because he was afraid of the Japanese army's retaliation, the principal was also a little tricky, although he agreed to make a joint statement between the two sides, but in the statement, he praised the bravery of the Eighth Route Army, as if he was afraid that the little devil would blame the other country's army.
In fact, the Eighth Route Army did not expect the National Army to have the courage to stand up and support the field.
In preparation for the coming storm.
The Jiaodong Military Region quickly entered the highest level of combat readiness, and the Yan'an General Headquarters airlifted all the members of the elite detachment to Haiyang County, Jiaodong as a mobile unit through a group of transport planes, and at the same time, the Laopi Mobile Brigade and the Laohan Mobile Detachment, which were previously in northern Henan, all went to the Jiaodong Military Region.
The Huangyadong Headquarters also dispatched the engineer brigade directly under the headquarters and the engineer regiments directly under the 120th and 129th divisions to rush to the Jiaodong Military Region in turn to strengthen the construction of fortifications.
Prepare to build Haiyang County into a steel millstone built by a fortress, and wipe it out after putting the main force of the devils in.
At the same time, the Jiaodong Military Region has also successfully developed a solid rocket launcher made of nitrocellulose through a military competition, and directly mass-produced a light multiple rocket launcher with a tail and a rotating double stability in Laiyang.
Although it is not as good as the rockets produced by the Iron Triangle, Huangyadong and Yan'an bases, it is cheaper, at least it is more than enough to suppress the Japanese army with superior firepower.
With the support of the technical personnel and equipment of the brother troops, as well as the arrival of a large number of mobile troops, Commander Xu, who was in charge of this battle, no longer worried about the fortifications of the defense area that changed three times a day, but looked forward to it.
This Taihang Military Region, especially Kong Jie, their iron triangle has completely become famous.
It's time for our Jiaodong Military Region to show its face!
Even Commander Fu sent his own directly subordinate engineer regiment to help, and everyone was determined to do a big job.
Isn't Okamura preparing to take over as commander of the Chinese Dispatch Army? Isn't it still necessary to celebrate the battle of Yuxianggui in Wuhan?
Directly defeat your most elite mobile troops, and treat it as a congratulatory gift from our Eighth Route Army to your celebration, so that you old devil will be happy.
As for the specific deployment, Commander Xu has already made an in-depth analysis.
There are only three ways for devils to come to Haiyang, one is Qingdao to the north, one is Jinan to the south, and one is Weihai to the east.
All of them have set up a net, and you are afraid that the little devil will not be able to take the bait?
The commanders of the military regions who had rested from all sides also gathered in Haiyang County, and everyone was waiting for the victory or defeat of this battle.
Nagasaki and Fukuoka were attacked by the Chinese Air Force, and even the news that the aircraft carrier Tianchen was completely sunk was thoroughly publicized.
The whole world is amazed!
China is once again standing on the cusp, of course, this time it is not humiliating, backward and beaten, but dazzling, shocking the world's toughness!
The Soviet Union, the United States, Britain and other allied countries also had to put away their original arrogance and re-examine this Chinese army that can turn decay into magic.
Then, the Allied countries sent special observation missions to exchange and study.
Even the United States sent a joint observation group composed of the Senate, the House of Representatives, and other parties to go directly to the Jiaodong area to inspect the feasibility of building a large-scale military transport airport with Chennault, Li Mei, and other military attachΓ©s in China.
By the way, let's see if the Eighth Route Army can withstand the crazy revenge of the devil this time.
And once the Eighth Route Army did it, they not only created such a miracle and laid down such a shocking result, but also showed the world that they have the strength and heritage to firmly control this result
Britain, the Soviet Union, the United States and other allied countries can also use the front airfield in the Jiaodong area, which was stabilized by the Eighth Route Army, as a springboard to carry out the next round of bombing on the mainland of Xiaori at any time.
It's really come to this point, and the little day has really become a grasshopper after the autumn, and it won't be able to jump for a few days.
Oh, by the way, the US observer mission also has a special mission this time - to award Doolittle a medal.
After assisting the Eighth Route Army to launch an air raid on the mainland of Xiaori.
Lao Du, a ruthless man who once led a bombing force to attack Tokyo.
Completely ushered in the highlight moment of his life.
In Kong Jie's words: "Lao Du, I'm afraid that your rank as colonel will be changed again!" β
β¦β¦
The air raid came to an end.
Before a more violent storm approached, there was a rare brief lull.
Kong Jie was chatting with his son at home, and this person with a common topic and direction of interest was so happy to chat.
Even though he was at home, he still talked about the war.
Shen Wenyue said that she does not know much about the military aspect, and she can talk about the follow-up work on propaganda after the end of the air raid.
She had long found out that her husband was almost an all-rounder, and even some of the work in their propaganda department, after a little mention by Kong Jie, they could always have a different way of thinking.
This time is no exception.
Kong Jie said with a smile: "All military wars, in the final analysis, are for the sake of politics, so I have always believed that a war is important, but the corresponding political propaganda after the end of the war is also important."
Wen Yue, the importance of the work you have done in propaganda is no worse than our military operations on the front line! β
"Flim tongue, don't comfort me, let's get serious!" Shen Wenyue said with a smile.
"Okay, good, in fact, the idea is very simple!"
Kong Jie proposed: "The successful conclusion of this air raid can not only demonstrate the aviation power of our Eighth Route Army, but also combat the arrogance of the devils."
Especially since the implementation of the devil's No. 1 battle plan, under the arrogance of the little devils, it seems that they have returned to the period when they were able to advance vigorously at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War.
If you don't wake up these little devils head-on, do they really think they're good again?
I think we can make a special propaganda film on the various types of air combat training and air raid operations of our Eighth Route Army Air Force over the past year or so.
It's called the Eagle in the sky over North China!
A documentary was also made on the production mobilization and industrial construction in various base areas, called the Model of Strengthening the Army.
A propaganda video for the Army and Armored Corps was made for the Land Tigers.
It is an example of cooperation between the Allied commandos and the construction experts.
As soon as these four propaganda films come out, accompanied by the air raid on Tokyo, it will definitely further enhance China's international prestige.
Of course, what specific name is more suitable, this is the work that your comrades in the propaganda department are better at.
In short, it is to thoroughly promote the image of our Eighth Route Army as a strong army.
In addition to this punch to be played well, the propaganda aspect must also do enough work, and you must let others know how powerful you are, so as to have a deterrent effect! β
