Looking at the telegrams sent by Inoue Sadae and Nagano Yuichiro, Neiji Okamura, who has always been in good health, felt that his blood pressure was about to break through the sky.
"Why didn't you give an early warning? Are those radar stations and ground observation posts just for display?" Neiji Okamura asked Chief of Staff Adachi twenty-three with a bloody complexion. His voice was not loud, and there was no feeling in his tone. Angry, but the secretary who has followed Neiji Okamura for many years trembled, because he knew that the Commander would only behave like this when he was extremely angry.
Anda 23 quickly explained: "Your Excellency, the radar station our army set up in Shanxi suddenly failed. And those ground observation posts set up at the junction with the national army all reported that they did not see any enemy planes flying over. .¡±
"You mean, those bombers all came to northern Shaanxi?" Gangcun Ningci said with some surprise.
Anda twenty-three nodded: "It should be like this?"
This time Okamura Ningji was even more shocked: "When did that desolate yellow land have a large airport that can take off B17? And the relationship between those Tubalu and Chongqing has always been very tense. How could they allow the national army to fly?" The bomber unit stationed?" After speaking, he turned his attention to the chief of the intelligence department of the headquarters.
The lieutenant quickly said: "It's not the national army. According to the information provided by several Chongqing government officials we have bought, in the past six months, the United States has successively assisted Yan'an with 30 B17 bombers and more than a hundred Chinese pilots. So the subordinates I believe that what appeared in the sky over southern Shanxi should be the Eighth Route Army's own bomber unit."
Gangcun Ningci frowned: "Why didn't you report such important news earlier!"
Seeing that your Excellency the Commander showed signs of losing his temper again, the lieutenant quickly explained: "This information is classified as confidential by the Chongqing government, and my subordinates only learned of it a few days ago. I wanted to confirm it before reporting to you, but I didn't expect"
Neiji Okamura's face softened a little. The Chongqing government is not good at fighting, but its intelligence work is still very good. Whether it is intelligence collection or counter-espionage, it has made a lot of achievements, especially the assassination work, which is very outstanding, so Hearing this, he no longer made things difficult for the lieutenant. Immediately he asked again: "Apart from the b17, have the Americans aided them with fighter jets?"
The Lieutenant Colonel said affirmatively: "Absolutely not, even the fighter jets of the China-US Air Force have not stationed at Yan'an Airport."
Gangcun Ningci said with a ferocious face: "I didn't expect that a few years ago, the Tuba Road, which was equipped with a large number of cold weapons, even formed its own bomber unit. It really echoed the old Chinese saying, three days away from soldiers." It¡¯s okay to look at them with admiration. If this is the case, then let them experience the true strength of the Imperial Japanese Air Force! Send me an order to let the airports in Shanxi speed up the repair of the runways. , it is bound to blow up all the bombers of the Eighth Route Army. At the same time, order the planes stationed at Handan, Anyang, Hebi and other airports to take off immediately to provide operational guidance to the 69th Division and the 37th Division. In addition, order other reinforcements to accelerate their advance, Rushing to Linfen at all costs.'
Anda said with embarrassment on the 23rd face: "Your Excellency, in order to cooperate with the upcoming battle plan of the 11th Army, the Third Flying Division has transferred most of the fighters to the vicinity of Wuhan. Now Handan, Anyang, Hebi The total number of combat aircraft at the airports is less than 30. Even if all of them are dispatched, it may be difficult to provide effective support to all the troops under attack, not to mention that there are Taihang Mountains and Taiyue Mountains between these airports and Linfen Mountains. The aircraft may be attacked by the mysterious anti-aircraft weapons of the Eighth Route Army!'
Ningji Okamura was indifferent. The air defense weapons that had suffered heavy losses from the Shandong Air Force that had fought so far were indeed a great threat to fighter planes flying over the mountains, so he said: "Even the mysterious air defense weapons of the Eighth Route Army The weapons are indeed very powerful, and we cannot give up our air resources against Shanxi, but what you said is indeed reasonable, so let those planes stand by at any time, and after all the airports in Shanxi are repaired, they will immediately take off to attack the Eighth Route Army together!"
"Hi!" Anda replied with a bow on twenty-three sides, and immediately went down to deliver the order.
After receiving the order, the airports in Shanxi immediately accelerated the repair work of the airport runways. The Zhuang Ding, the Japanese soldiers stationed, and even the ground staff kept bringing in trucks of earth and rocks, filling them on the runways and being bombed. Then a large number of Japanese engineers spread asphalt on it, and then used heavy machinery, pack horses and even stone sticks pulled by manpower to compact and level the land. Under their hard work, at 2 pm, the daily average airport in Shanxi was basically completed, and it was time for repair work. Although the quality of these rushed runways is not good enough, in some places even?? After eliminating those enemy planes, join the bomber formation to carry out the bombing mission together.
It needs to be emphasized that the bombers of the Eighth Route Army are all American B17s. My second brother who served in the Naval Air Force once introduced to me in a letter that this type of aircraft is a heavy bomber equipped with four powerful engines. The normal speed is about 320 to 400 kilometers per hour, and the maximum ceiling can reach 10,000 meters. In terms of firepower, each aircraft is equipped with 13 12.7mm aviation machine guns inside, and this aircraft has a very strong resistance to attack. Although the specific thickness of its wall is unknown, the 7.7mm machine guns equipped by Zero fighters are very difficult to hit. Only by relying on the two 20mm machine guns can it cause a certain amount of damage. "
At that time, although Japan and the United States had been at war for a year, they were basically in a state of Japanese attack and US defense. Heavy strategic bombers such as the B17 were not used many times on the battlefield. In addition, the navy deliberately blocked the news. As a result, the Japanese pilots who were in the Chinese battlefield had never heard of this kind of aircraft. That's why Miyagi Shou told them what he knew. I hope these pilots can have a certain understanding of the enemy aircraft before the station.
Hearing this, there was a gasping sound on the radio,? All the pilots were overwhelmed by the perverted parameters of this bomber. The speed of the total aircraft is nothing. With the Falcon's maximum speed of 530 kilometers per hour, it is easy and enjoyable to catch up with this thing. The key is this The firepower and anti-strike ability of this kind of aircraft are too abnormal. There are 13 12.7mm aviation machine guns, and even the 7.7mm machine gun can¡¯t penetrate the wall. This is a bunker that can fire 360 ??degrees! The Falcon II fighter they were flying was only equipped with a 12.7mm aircraft. It is really unknown whether they can penetrate the wall of that bomber!
What makes these Japanese pilots even more troublesome is that the ceiling of the B17 is as high as 10,000 meters. If those planes really have to maintain such a height, then they fly Falcon fighter jets, let alone attack, whether it is enough is a problem. .
However, Miyagi Shou immediately relieved their concerns: "The 10,000 meters I just mentioned is just their ceiling. Under normal circumstances, these coin periods will choose to drop bombs at an altitude of 3 kilometers. If the target is smaller, It will even be reduced to one or two kilometers.
This kind of height is completely achievable for our falcons, and even if their altitude exceeds 5000 meters. We can also use the attack method of the HNA Zero fighter, which is to climb rapidly, attack, fall, and climb. 'That's right, this is indeed the method used by Japanese naval aviation to attack high-altitude heavy bombers. In the late World War II, when the US military bombed the Pacific islands and the Japanese mainland, there would always be a group of B17 and B29 aircraft that were always covered by the sun. A large number of Japanese fighter planes launched an attack, they kept rising, falling, and rising again, just like shrimps on the surface of the water at the beginning of the month!
