Chapter 261: Gourd Bottle

During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, the people of Yunnan also made contributions, sending more than 200,000 Yunnan troops to the front line, experiencing more than 20 major battles, and the military and civilians of the province participated in the Great War of Resistance in Western Yunnan, with a total of more than 100,000 casualties.

According to the statistics of the 1940 "Economic Report" of the National Government, the wartime industrial production enterprises in Yunnan with Kunming as the center ranked third in the eight major industrial zones in the southwest, in addition to the famous Central Machinery Factory, there were 80 industrial production enterprises in Kunming at that time, forming the four major industrial zones of Haikou, Majie, Ciba and Anning, creating China's first wire, the first telescope, the first assembled car, the first airplane, the first electric furnace and many other "China's first", producing airplanes, guns and bullets, A large number of military products such as explosives greatly supported the war of resistance.

During the 8-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Kunming has always been the gateway city of the country's external contacts, connecting the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, the Yunnan-Burma Highway, the "Hump" route and the China-India Highway 4 land and air transportation lines and the China-India oil pipeline, which are the main international channels to maintain the country's foreign relations during different periods of the Anti-Japanese War.

According to statistics, from the beginning of 1939 to the end of 1941, more than 221,500 tons of materials were transported to Kunming through the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and from May 1942 to August 1945, Chinese and American planes flew 80,000 sorties over the Hump route, transporting more than 700,000 tons of materials from India to Kunming......

When the only way for China to connect with the world was the passage of Yunnan, Burma and Yunnan-India, the fate of Kunming was closely related to the fate of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and the only major city on this only passage became an important strategic target that the Japanese army vowed to destroy.

Unable to carry out a ground offensive, the Japanese army, navy, and air forces jointly carried out wanton and indiscriminate bombing of Kunming for six years. Japanese planes dropped 3,043 bombs on Kunming, killing and wounding thousands of innocent compatriots, leaving the city full of holes and craters......

In the face of the huge sacrifices made by the people of Yunnan, the Qin family took out some food within their ability, which was deserved!

Otherwise, Qin Dikeng was abducted and robbed, and he got so much gold, and he was reluctant to give back to the people, so he wouldn't be struck by lightning?

Therefore, he praised Qin Yue's approach: "Very good, just do it! I have already informed the people in the grain store and asked them to continue to buy grain from overseas. ”

In fact, there is no shortage of food in the whole world, only wartime China and Africa, which cannot farm, are short of food. The United States, Canada, Argentina, and Australia all have large tracts of land that are cultivated by large machines, and food prices are relatively cheap. It's just that because the Japanese army blocked the port, the goods could not be delivered. But if you use an American cargo ship, it is still possible to send it.

In the evening, Qin Di continued to carve his gourd bottle.

Yan Xue saw it and couldn't help but be curious: "Brother, why are you obsessed with jade?"

Qin Di said with a smile: "There are bandit gentlemen, such as cutting and learning, such as grinding." "It means that I want to be a gentleman, so I'm polishing my heart.

On the third day, Qin Di personally drove an off-road vehicle, carried more than a dozen barrels of gasoline in his storage belt, and sent Qin Zhan to Chongqing.

It was very difficult to trek through mountains and rivers along the way, and if it weren't for the protection of him and Yan Xue, maybe Qin Zhan might still encounter bandits.

When they arrived in Chongqing, they were just in time for the bombing by Japanese planes.

On 3 May, bombers of the Japanese Naval Air Force took off from Hankou Airport and continuously bombed the central area of Chongqing, using a large number of incendiary bombs. In the center of Chongqing, 1,991 people were killed, 1,323 were injured, 2,889 buildings were damaged, and about 100,000 people were left homeless.

Qin Di was blown up, knowing that such a bombing would continue to be staged in the future, he was very worried about the safety of his family, so when night fell, he took a silver chain, tied the Naxu gourd to his back, flew out of Chongqing, and rushed east along the Yangtze River!

As he ran, he saw a Japanese warship docked by the river, so he quietly touched it.

This time he didn't kill again, because he had calculated afterwards and found that the most likely thing to cause a catastrophe was killing.

He didn't sink the warship either, but only looted some weapons and ammunition, including Type 98 blasting canisters, magnetic anti-tank grenades, mixed-fuel Molotov cocktails, Type 93 flamethrowers, 20 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 120 Type 99 light machine guns, as well as thousands of rifles, bundles of high explosives, and a lot of bullets, all of which he put in his storage pocket.

Then he continued to the east, three or four miles in a step, into the heavily defended Hankou Airport, first entered the hangar, and put the thirty fighters in the hangar into the gourd bottle one by one, and the gourd bottle was suspended in mid-air under the urging of his mind, directly covering the plane from head to tail!

At this time, the planes were very small, the Zero fighter was 9 meters long, the wingspan was 12 meters, and the empty weight was 1,680 kilograms.

Qin Di didn't care whether the wings were damaged or not, and directly threw the planes into it "bang bang"!

Then he got out of the hangar and saw dozens of planes on the tarmac.

He couldn't fit these planes into the gourd bottles, because the gourd bottles were still half-finished, and the tarmac was full of bombers, twice the size of the fighter planes! There were many Japanese soldiers around the airport, and if people saw them, it would become a supernatural event.

He quickly lit bundles of high-explosive charges, and then swept over each plane in a puff of smoke, and the earth-shattering explosion sounded on the airfield!

More than a dozen searchlights shone through, but no figure was found. Qin Di had already gone into hiding.

There was a lot of uproar among the Japanese troops around, and people on the airport were running around!

At this time, Qin Di came out of the shadows again, stunned a Japanese soldier, changed into the opponent's military uniform, and blew up more military planes with the help of firefighting.

When the Japanese officer came to his senses, blew a sharp whistle, and asked all the Japanese soldiers to leave the tarmac, Qin Di also blew up the plane almost to the ground.

Subsequently, he left Wuhan Airport quietly and returned to Chongqing that night without delaying breakfast.

According to later statistics, Wuhan Airport lost 66 planes in one night, of which 30 fighters disappeared out of thin air!

It turned out to be a paranormal event!

Most of the Japanese soldiers didn't know about it, and the soldiers who knew didn't dare to tell it!

The Japanese military top brass did not dare to announce the truth of the matter, so they could only isolate all the soldiers for examination, and then replace the rest of the troops to garrison them.

It was not until 1945, after Japan announced its defeat and surrender, that the soldiers made the matter public, and it became one of the top ten mysteries that happened in China during World War II.

Qin Di didn't want to make trouble for himself, so he simply sank the plane in the East China Sea a few months later!

Airplanes are different from money printing machines, which can also be taken out and given away. And the plane can't be given to anyone, because there is no way to explain the source.

The next day, May 4, was supposed to be a very serious day in history when the bombing of Chongqing was carried out, but it was quiet, and no enemy planes flew over.
