Chapter 313 Air Attack Baotou

Kenji Ueda said thoughtfully, "Seven divisions assigned to the heavy artillery force to deal with the six divisions of [***] in the tenth war zone? I believe in the ability of the Zhouli army and Isoya Rensuke. I have my own arrangements for the troops of the Ninth Army of Okamura. Don't say much about this.

Hesse Yoshi is the deputy chief of staff of the Kwantung Army. When the chief of staff Hideki Tojo was no longer there, he was supposed to bear the strategic formulation of the Kwantung Army. In the formulation of strategy and tactics, Major General Hesse Yoshiichi can even be said to have far more power to speak than the general Kenkichi Ueda.

However, as a general, Kenji Ueda used his position and military rank to suppress Hessary Jiichi, who was a little weak. Hessen Jiyi naturally had nothing to say. In addition, it was all about Hideki Tojo arguing with Kenkichi Ueda. When he was used to shaking his shopkeeper, he wanted to pick up the power of the staff again. Kenji Ueda naturally did not allow it. Because before the complete success of this secret battle plan in Kenkichi Ueda's heart is completely successful, only he knows it, because the more people he knows, the more people will share the credit. This is Kenji Ueda's last chance to attack the marshal.

It can be said that with the main force of the 10th war zone in the attack of the Kanto army, Kenkichi Ueda himself has reached the point of gratitude. For the emperor who is far away in Honshu, Ueda Kenkichi has to worship in the east every morning and evening, but it is obvious that Ueda Kenkichi Ueda's distant worship and No effect? One is Ueda Kenji's insincerity, and the second may be that the emperor's surname is not the illegitimate son of Tianzhao at all? There is no magic power at all, and I can't bless all the immoral things, and I want to have a son with an asshole.

Ueda Kenji hesitated for a long time and said to Hessenji: "The 20th and 25th heavy explosive brigades stationed in North Korea will carry out air strikes on Dingyuan Camp and Baotou tomorrow morning! The Kwantung Army, the Army stationed in North Korea, and the Air Force of the North China Front dispatched by China fully cooperated with the containment.

For the order given by Kenkichi Ueda, Yoshi I suddenly felt suffocated, because Kenkichi Ueda's approach seems to be a little too extreme. The 20th and 25th heavy explosive brigades stationed in North Korea are the treasures of the army aviation!

Resources have always been scarce. For more than 40% of the aircraft engines purchased from the United States through U.S. loans, the power of domestic aircraft engines is not enough to be installed on large bombers, so the so-called heavy bombers made in Japan seem to be a little congenitally insufficient. I'm afraid of this taste. The pilots of the aviation army have the deepest experience. After all, the bad things that are so bulky to a certain extent that they sink to a certain extent are likely to kill them even if there are no enemies. Therefore, the pilots of the army's aviation bombing forces check their parachutes every time they take off.

The best equipped bomber in the army is the Type 97 heavy bomber. Previously, the Kwantung Army was equipped with a batch of Italian-made Fiat BR-20 heavy bombers. In May 1937, Japan ordered 72 BR-20 heavy bombers from Italy for the war against China. The long-range bombing on the field is a replacement for the Type 96 medium-sized medium-sized bomber and the Type 96 land-based medium-range bomber due to the large loss of the attack on the Rehe River. It is a long-range double-engine attack aircraft used by the Japanese navy. The combat radius is large. During the Battle of Shanghai, because the Japanese army temporarily failed to control the mainland airport, it was stationed in Taiwan. The Type 96 bombers of the two Gengjin air forces took off from Taipei and bombed Shanghai, Hangzhou and other places in mainland China. It was said that public opinion was noisy for a while. However, when it was intercepted by the BF-109F fighter of the Rehe Flying Tigers, the Type 96 bomber completely became a target and was nicknamed by the Rehe Air Force. Meat pigeons!

The current situation of Hessen Yoshi, who served as the chief of staff in the Army Air Force Headquarters, is far more clear than that of Kenji Ueda. The Army Air Force is not without heavy bombers. The most typical of them is the Nine Triple Bomber, which is a bomber. The amount is much larger than the nine six, but the combat radius is only 400 kilometers, which belongs to the type of heavy body and short legs. Moreover, this kind of fixed landing gear aircraft has a very poor surname, a high failure rate, and great dependence on ground services. It has a nickname called "linear flight forced landing practice aircraft", which is like the Type 96 medium bomber and Type 97 heavy bomber. It can only be used for surface bombing. If the Type 96 medium bomber and Type 93 heavy bomber are used. If the bombers and the Type 97 heavy bombers do dive bombing, then the plane may land ahead of the bomb! Moreover, the above three bombers are strategic bombers, not tactical bombers.

In fact, Hesse Jiyi remembered that the Army Air Force also had a large strategic bomber, called the Type 95 large attack aircraft. This kind of aircraft has a long range, which can be called a good fighter for strategic bombing. It has repeatedly dispatched this kind of aircraft from Jeju Island in North Korea to carry out air strikes on Shanghai. Unfortunately, it encountered the nemesis BF-109F fighter of the attack aircraft, and a whole brigade of Type 95 long-distance attack aircraft were shot down, resulting in no more Chinese battlefields in China. It is equipped with this type of attack aircraft.

Kichi Hesse does not agree with Kenji Ueda's bombing plan. He believes that this so-called air strike plan is more appropriate than a suicide plan. It is said that all the bombers equipped by the army must be used with almost absolute air control. No bomber is suitable for fast and low-altitude assault. For the defense mission, there is also an urgent need for BF-109F fighters and Stucard dive bombers to compete with the Flying Tigers of Zhang Xuewu's command. On the other hand, the Stuka dive bombers have a particularly excellent attack effect on armored targets.

However, the contact between the Japanese political axe and the military and the German side is not smooth, and Germany, which is not very rich in itself, is still indecisive about supporting the Japanese side. In particular, Rehe has established good relations with the Chinese national political axe and the German air force. The big orders of Rehe make the German air force rich. A large number of new fighters were changed, and I was so poor that I couldn't wear my trousers. When dealing with the Germans, I adhered to the "smart wisdom" of my ancestors!

Because the military was initially only going to order a prototype, which was my habit. I bought it, dismantled and studied it, and then imitated it. The Germans have long realized that the Japanese Type-San heavy bomber is an imitation of the German Junkers K-37. Such a petty family made the old-fashioned Germans indignant. The business negotiator of the German Heinkel Company once said to the representative, "When can we get more than one order from you?"

And I also took out their ability to take care of the house and bowed fiercely. In those years, he bowed to Hessen Jiyi, the current deputy chief of staff of the Kwantung Army. He climbed up to the position of major general by plagiarizing a copycat. Hessen Jiyi was really not easy.

However, Yoshiichi Hessen still failed to stop Kenkichi Ueda's bombing plan, because his deputy chief of staff did not have the exception of Hideki Tojo, who often threatened with a caesarean section. Kenkichi Ueda's combat plan was approved by the Army's Ministry of Aviation. In fact, everyone knows very well that the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army drew it. The combat plan, and the 20th and 25th Heavy Bomb Brigades stationed in North Korea are still in the combat sequence of the Kwantung Army. Reporting to the Army Aviation Department is just a formal form. On the surface, it is to give face to the Army Aviation Department. In fact, in case of a problem with the combat plan, there are more people who can take the blame. Everyone agreed to this battle plan. If it didn't work, why didn't you say it earlier?

For Ueda Kenji's rogue tricks with his rank, the Army Aviation Department is also very helpless. There are many people who secretly sticker strips, prick grass people, and hit the soles of shoes.

At 3:00 a.m. on February 1, 1938, the supporting living area of the southern area of Baotou Industrial Zone was heavily bombed by the 20th and 25th heavy explosive brigades of the Japanese army stationed in North Korea. The air force combat units of the 10th war zone swarmed to take off and desperately tried to intercept the returning Japanese military aircraft.

The cunning Japanese military aircraft did not return directly after the bombing, but turned around and flew directly from Mongolia to the secret airport of the Kwantung Army Flight Division in Heilongjiang from Mongolia.

Was Baotou Industrial Zone under air raids by the Japanese army? Zhang Xuewu felt that he was either sleepy, or the adverb who called him up was sleepy? The entire air defense network in the tenth war zone was built by Zhang Xuewu himself. Because the radar was still under research, Zhang Xuewu used the most old-fashioned and stupid method, that is, to build air defense sentries everywhere. Once he heard or saw the plane invading, he immediately notified the air defense headquarters by telegram or cable phone to inform the enemy. Then the air force took off to effectively intercept the invading Japanese warplanes. Zhang Xuewu's move allowed his invading group to be attacked and pursued at any time.

Therefore, Rehe, Chahar and Suiyuan have long been the flight restricted areas of the Japanese Army Air Force, so that in the subsequent competition for air swers, the whole Beiping to Jinzhou and Fengtian were included in the attack range of the air force in the 10th Theater. In the face of BF-109K and Falcon fighters, almost an era of advanced technology and pressure. The surname of the reverse surname is Neng, and it is said that the army aviation corps can only retreat.

Under such conditions, pride and arst will inevitably breed, and the most important thing is that the 20th and 25th heavy explosive brigades of the Japanese army took off from North Korea came from the border of the Soviet Union. The military aircraft group penetrated more than 100 kilometers deep into the Soviet border of the Soviet Union, which naturally avoided Zhang Xuewu's defense. Air network, the instruction for the air attack on Baotou is to drop bombs in the predetermined area, which is so simple.

It can be said that this is a political surprise attack that is greater than military, breaking the myth of Baotou's absolute air force defense circle!
