Chapter 332: Burning Tokyo 1
Tokyo, afternoon of June 15, 1941
Although the domestic economic situation is a little tense, but Tokyo is still very prosperous, as always harmonious, it cannot be said that this is completely the case, since the last time it was patronized by the B-25 bomber group, Tokyo has very effectively strengthened its air defense forces, the deployment of fighters and anti-aircraft guns has increased, the Japanese Ministry of War has also put into use the newly developed radar, and built a complete radar network around Tokyo.
Speaking of the radar of the Japanese army, we have always looked down on it, but in fact, during this period, there was no real generation difference in the radar of Britain, Bald Eagle, Hans, and Japan, and the difference was the degree of attention and the way of use, for example, during the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, the long-range radar we deployed in Phoenix Mountain in Andong City was left by Japan, which could effectively monitor the situation of the Bald Eagle army and the Li puppet army in the Seoul area.
Today, the Japanese radar crew, who was in a state of fishing, suddenly discovered that an unregistered plane was approaching Tokyo at high speed in the waters south of Goryeo Province, and judging from the echo, it was still a large plane that flew very high, and its trajectory was different from that of almost any known Japanese plane.
While the Tokyo Air Defense Command was still judging whether it would be a bomber, a group of naval fighters on a training mission spotted a glow in the sky, and after calling to no avail, the fighter formation began to approach the plane, wanting to understand the situation.
To be honest, these fighter pilots were in a mood of eagerness at this moment, looking forward to getting the first result of shooting down the Huaxia bomber, but after they saw the plane, they panicked, because the other party was too big, too fast, too high, not to mention threatening others, even if they tried their best, they couldn't rush up.
"Haha, Mr. Wang, I thought that the safety you said was that this plane is strong, but I didn't expect it to be like this, it is indeed safe enough!" Sitting on the plane, looking at the funny appearance of the Japanese fighters below who couldn't rush up and fell down, Brigade Commander Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"It must be safe, the devil's best fighter is more than 9,000 meters and less than 10,000 meters, our 'H-1' can easily fly more than 11,000 meters, their fighter has a maximum speed of more than 530, but ours is more than 550, this is crushing, proper crushing." Wang Yue said somewhat stinky fart, this guy is wearing a pair of Ao sunglasses at this time, holding a cigar in his mouth, and introducing to Brigade Commander Chen and Zhang Wanhe very stinky, originally wanted to pull Brigade Commander Chen and Zhang Wanhe to feel the plane, no, at the instigation of Brigade Commander Chen, he really flew to Tokyo, and there were only six people on the bomber that originally needed eleven crew members, except for Brigade Commander Chen, Zhang Wanhe and the guards of the two, only Wang Yue and a pilot of the Eighth Route Army who had only flown through the first six were left.
"Ten tons of bombs can still bomb Tokyo?" Zhang Wanhe said with some doubts, it seems that this performance is worse than the performance introduced by Wang Yue, isn't it a little better?
"Normally, it is recommended that you only load four tons of bombs, if you dismantle those fragments, you should be able to hang six tons, I am using a high-grade fuel additive that damages the engine, and it is true that the performance of the aircraft is improved, but. When you go back, you need to change the engine. Wang Yue casually made up nonsense, but it is said that Mao Xiong really did something similar back then, just to improve the performance of the Tu-4 bomber, it was a big deal to let Comrade Li Yunlong "invent" it earlier.
Before the Tu-16 was put into service, the range of the Tu-4 was not enough to threaten the Bald Eagle mainland, in order to have the strategic counterattack capability and protect the pilots as much as possible, they could only abandon the bomber, to put it bluntly, it was just to turn the bomber that could be used repeatedly into a disposable product, and besides, just changing the engine could not be said to be a strict disposable consumable.
"That's really unaffordable!" Zhang Wanhe is staggering, their technicians have studied the two engines of the same type on the Li-2 transport plane, if they are properly maintained, it is estimated that there will not be many problems in a few decades, and they will have to change four engines in one operation, which is a bit frustrating, okay?
"It's okay, in terms of the performance of Japanese aircraft, for a long time there was no need for self-defense weapons, twenty bombers, one hundred and twenty tons of bombs at a time, Hans bombed Britain is just this level." Wang Yue smiled, this thing can already be called a strategic weapon, okay?
"Shoreline, coastline!" At this time, the co-pilot pointed to the front and said that he was indeed at a loss, because they are currently in a state of autopilot, and the positioning method is the radio waves of Radio Tokyo, as long as the other party's frequency band is locked on that complex navigation system, it is very simple and easy.
With the entry into the so-called home defense circle, the number of Japanese troops involved in the interception also increased, a large number of fighters circled below, then rose to the brink of stall, and then launched an attack, although it seemed so futile and ridiculous, but these Japanese pilots never gave up, even if from time to time a pilot fell due to a plane failure, they still insisted.
Even the Yamato, the flagship of the Combined Fleet, was driven out, and the 460mm main gun roared when it was persistent, as if to embolden itself and express its anger.
Entering the Japanese mainland, there were anti-aircraft artillery fire exploding below them one after another, like firecrackers in the New Year, which lasted for a long time, making people very happy, Zhang Wan and the minister calculated the good things, just the shells fired by the devils are estimated to be worth more than their bomber, and if they continue to engage in high-density bombing, I am afraid that they can really drag down the Japanese.
Of course, the premise is that the Japanese themselves do not lie flat, and once the Japanese completely give up air defense like Wang Yue in that time and space, it will be useless.
Not long after, the bombers arrived in the urban area of Tokyo under the "escort" of hundreds of Japanese military planes, and Wang Yue did not lower the altitude to drop the bombs as required, but directly used the assistance of his brain to calculate and drop the bombs at an altitude of 11,000 meters, and 45 500-pound incendiary bombs were drawn out of the magazines one after another, and rushed towards the urban area of Tokyo, and then began to rotate at a distance of 1,000 meters from the ground, throwing out the small incendiary bombs weighing only one pound inside the bombs.
Tens of thousands of small incendiary bombs landed without even a loud explosion, but everyone didn't even have time to breathe a sigh of relief before they saw a scene they would never forget.
