The father of the sword is Kong Jie

The opportunity to change the situation came from a top-secret telegram.

Commander Chen of the Southern Hebei Military Region, who was watching the battle at the frontline air defense headquarters in Licheng, was watching with enthusiasm when suddenly his communications staff officer received a top-secret telegram.

It is said that at the HD Chengnan Airport, the devils have suddenly been busy since around ten o'clock yesterday morning. The transport planes kept taking off and landing, and the sorties were very frequent. Can't tell what the devil is up to.

Commander Chen immediately realized the importance of the information revealed on the side of the telegram.

"Does the devil have flying troops stationed there?"

The communications staff said: "The secret observation post outside the airport reported where the old reconnaissance planes were.

As for the further situation, because the Japanese army has specially strengthened its vigilance, and the defense line has also expanded a lot, we are temporarily unable to investigate. "

Commander Chen said suspiciously: "This is strange. The Devils Flying Team didn't move in, so why expand the defense circle, keep using transport planes to bring things over, and set up a lot of tents, level the open space around the airport, clear the runway and Airport parking lot?"

"But what is certain is that the devil must be secretly preparing something at the HD airport.

It seems to be expanding the number of fighter planes that can be parked at the airport. "

At this time, the communications staff had not connected the situation of the Japanese army at the Chengnan Airport in southern Hebei with the Japanese air raid on Licheng.

At this time, Lao Yang, who represented the northern Henan base area to participate in the meeting, said: "Old Chen, didn't we go to that broken airport in your defense area some time ago?
Originally, I wanted to get some planes to go back, but in the end, the devils only had a few reconnaissance planes and transport planes for liaison, and there were basically no supplies, equipment, etc. The airport was more like a temporary parking lot. "

Commander Chen said: "Yes, I have done a lot of homework on this broken airport. Kong Jie and Li Yunlong made a fortune at the Japanese Army's Wuchagou Airport, brought back a lot of planes, and built a plane belonging to our Eighth Route Army. First Air Force.

The 120th division also went to the little devil's Mingbao Airport to make a fortune.

Even the Jizhong Military Region, taking advantage of the defeat of the Japanese Army's May Day raid, attacked the nearby Japanese military airport.

I thought about it, our Southern Hebei Military Region has always been honest like a good boy, has never done anything, and originally wanted to make some money, let alone make him come back with a few planes.

In the end, it was just this little thing, a loss-making business! "

"Just according to the current situation, this little devil is suddenly doing something secretly at HD Chengnan Airport, so there must be something wrong here, right?"

As soon as this word comes out.

After the generals looked at each other, the answer seemed to be ready.

"This HD is not far from the Changzhi area, that is, our city of Li. Logically speaking, the North China and Central China air teams of Devils have enough range to go back and forth, and there is no need to come here to refuel..."

Kong Jie smiled and said his inference: "Then, why did the Japanese army secretly carry out these actions at the HD airport so close to Licheng?
I think the biggest possibility is that it was used as a temporary forced landing and maintenance base for the damaged fighter planes of the Japanese army.

After the air-to-air battle around Licheng started, once the devil's fighter plane was damaged, he would definitely have to make an emergency landing as close as possible, and the closer the better.

Then, this HD Seongnam Airport will come in handy.

The secret actions of the Japanese army at HD Chengnan Airport can also be explained! "

After hearing this, the rest of the cadres immediately came to their senses.

Commander Chen was already so excited that his breathing became short of breath.

"Haha, it's so fucking sleepy that someone will give you a pillow, this time I'll see who can snatch it from me! This devil's HD city south base originally belonged to my defense zone in South Ji.

After the air battle in Licheng started, as long as Kong Jie and your side fight hard enough to make the little devils damage more planes, there will definitely be a lot more planes at the HD Chengnan Airport.

Then our chance will come.

Take away all the damaged and repaired fighter planes temporarily parked by the little devil at the HD airport! "

The more Commander Chen talked, the more excited he became.

"Maybe I can also create an aviation unit belonging to our Southern Hebei Military Region!"

Then on second thought, there was no one more experienced than Kong Jie in robbing the devil's airport, so Commander Chen smiled and took two steps closer, and moved closer.

"Ahem, Kong Jie...Old Kong, my brother, you have been staring at the map, what are you studying?"

Kong Jie said: "The news just came from Ding Wei that our air defense force shot down several Japanese planes, and was very lucky to capture a wounded Japanese pilot.

After interrogation, it was learned that the ones fighting with us in the morning were all the Japanese air forces in the North China region, and the main formation of the large aircraft fleet in the Central China region has not yet entered the battlefield!

Whether they entered at low altitude, mid-altitude, or high altitude has not yet been grasped, and the route is uncertain. Our electric detection radar troops are too small and can only be distributed in major areas. It is difficult to accurately capture every movement of the Japanese flying troops.

If the devil came around from the northern airspace of Huangyadong, or came along the ridge from Shexian County, or came from the west at a low altitude near the Zhuozhang River, we would definitely fall into a passive position if we didn't foresee it in advance.

The so-called know yourself and know the enemy will not be perilous in a hundred battles.

This is the aviation unit that our Eighth Route Army secretly built, and it is the first real battle. Although there are experienced American pilots from Doolittle and his team, plus our pilot comrades who have been studying with Doolittle and the others participated in the battle.

But the devil's pilots are not vegetarians either. Many of them have been trained in low-altitude flight by the navy and have rich skills, especially those flying dive bombers and torpedo bombers. They are all guys with excellent flying skills.

These enemies must never be speculated with conventional thinking.

Once the two sides fight.

For our air force, this must be a tough battle! "

Commander Chen thought deeply and said: "Yes! After all, our aviation force has just started, and it is still far behind the solid background of the Japanese army's flying force.

But the more this is the case, the more we have to fight this air-to-air battle, and we have to fight beautifully! "

"Cough, cough, old Kong, let's not talk about this, how did you sneak attack on the devil's HD Chengnan Airport, and successfully robbed the planes parked by the Japanese army at Chengnan Airport? I have a lot of experience in aircraft, so you have to help me figure it out!"

Kong Jie thought for a while and said with a smile: "Commander, I suggest further infiltration and investigation of HD Chengnan Airport, it is best to be able to confirm that this place is indeed a supply base used by the devils to repair and temporarily replenish damaged aircraft .

As for attacking the HD airport.

My troops are too far away to really be of much help.

It's also like what you said, Commander, the big fat piece of HD airport, except for your southern Hebei military region, no one else can think about it.

Of course, if the commander is determined to attack Seongnam Airport.

Naturally, I have to say a little bit-the 120mm night assault artillery unit can send reinforcements to the Southern Hebei Military Region at any time.

In addition, Commander, please look at the map. There is a Ping-Han railway line passing by in the HD area. I suggest that when attacking the Japanese Seongnan Airport, you should first do something else and attack west.

For example, set up two trains, divide the troops to rush to the south of the city, and create a big explosion at the two city defense positions in the north of the city, and then set up some fake attack troops to fight HD, trying to attract the Japanese troops stationed at the airport in the south of the city to come back.

Then take the opportunity to attack the airport. "

Commander Chen is such a smart person, he knows everything.

He laughed and said: "Haha, old Kong, old Kong, you really have a lot of good ideas.

I remember that when the troops were divided, you left some American-made ten-wheel trucks and some old-fashioned armored vehicles and tanks for our Southern Hebei Military Region.

This time it can come in handy as a mobile force to raid the airport. "

Kong Jie joked: "This idea is really good. If we praise Commander Tang more at the banquet, maybe there will be accessories for tanks, armored vehicles, and trucks."

"Heroes see the same thing!"

Commander Chen laughed loudly, but then he was a little worried: "But how to transport the things away? The troops can disperse and evacuate back to the base area, but with so many supplies at the airport, the devils don't know how many planes they can temporarily repair. Our Southern Hebei Military Region has not yet built an airport in advance, so it is not easy to move away!"

Kong Jie said: "It's easy to handle. You can call the transport planes of the flight team to come and transport them all. If you can't do it, you can fly twice. Anyway, except for Wuchagou Airport, there are a lot of transport planes at other airports.

Hurry up and retreat, what's faster than an airplane?
Besides, we have plenty of time, and there is no rush to attack the Japanese HD Chengnan Airport this time. It is best to wait until there are enough fighter planes that the Japanese army was forced to withdraw from Licheng and need to be repaired.

Or wouldn't it be a waste of time?
As for the planes you seized after you took down the airport, Commander, they should be temporarily parked at the air base of our first team.

Don't worry, when you finish building the airport of the Southern Hebei Military Region, I will return a lot of them. I, Kong Jie, should also contribute to the construction of the aviation unit of the Southern Hebei Military Region! "

"Haha, old Kong, old Kong, you are so interesting, why don't everyone say that you are kind!" Commander Chen's face was full of joy, and who would have thought that even if he came to Licheng to watch the battle, All the aviation units of his Southern Hebei Military Region were settled.

Kong Jie smiled along with him.

Xu Guoan, the chief of staff at the side, held back the smile in his heart, and looked at Commander Chen indiscriminately, with some sympathy on his face.

My heart was already overjoyed.

Commander Chen, Commander Chen, you have been lied to by Lao Kong.

Do you think it is so simple to build an aviation base and form an aviation force?
Pave the road casually, build an airport, and then capture some devil's planes, pull them back and form an aviation force?

You must have all kinds of maintenance parts for this aircraft, as well as modification and improvement technologies, including the fuel to be used and aviation lubricants, etc., right?

In addition, the corresponding complete advanced industrial system, the creation and training of professional flight teams, sufficient labor resources, and a complete economic system...

Which one of these you must not have?
Which of these can be built without money and resources?
At that time, Commander Chen will find out bitterly that building an aviation force is like a bottomless pit of spending money.

Because of these broken planes, his entire Southern Hebei Military Region might work day and night for Boss Kong!
It is typical to be sold and help count the money!
But if anyone is willing to fight, there is someone who is willing to suffer. Didn't you see that Commander Chen's face was blooming with joy, and he was shouting affectionately one by one, Brother Kong!

……

Licheng.

With the arrival of the Devils Huazhong Air Force, the double-knife battle has completely heated up.

Air defense sirens sounded throughout Licheng, and the sound of anti-aircraft fire and the calls of Devil planes could be heard everywhere.

Kong Jie, who was in charge of the front-line aviation command, relied on the air strike rules of the Japanese air force that he and Doolittle had specially studied to avoid the edge of the Japanese bomber force until the ammunition carried by the Japanese bomber was almost exhausted.

Some of the hidden long-range anti-aircraft guns and most of the Soviet-made anti-aircraft guns officially joined the battle.

At this time, as the air defense force secretly deployed by the Eighth Route Army in Licheng was gradually revealed, nearly 1/3 of the air defense firepower had been exposed.

The scale of the battle between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, and the sky is full of anti-aircraft artillery barrage.

Even the observers of the Allied Forces were surprised. Ground-to-air engagements of this scale are only possible in large-scale urban defense battles.

Commander Yan who was watching the battle, as well as Chu Yunfei and other officers of the Jinsui Army and Commander Tang of the Central Army were even more shocked.

On the one hand, I am amazed at the strength of the Japanese army's air firepower.

On the other hand, it was shocked by the strength of the Eighth Route Army's air defense force.

It was you and me who were able to fight against the air force of such a size as the Japanese army.

just imagine...

"What if the air strike that is happening now is on the site of our Jinsui army?"

When Chu Yunfei asked this question abruptly, all the surrounding officers of the Jinsui Army, including those of the Central Army, fell silent.

There was fear and retreat in their eyes, and they didn't even dare to think about it.

Faced with such an intense air strike by the Japanese army, even Chu Yunfei, if he asked himself, very few troops in the Sui Army and the Central Army could withstand it.

This made Chu Yunfei couldn't help feeling emotional again.

Today's Eighth Route Army has grown to an incredible level.

At this time, a group of secret aviation bases are in the aircraft fort.

Fighter pilots and ground crews are on standby, ready to open the hangar at any time, remove the runway camouflage, and take off immediately to the airspace of Licheng.

Major Davis, who led the Eighth Route Army's first elite bomber unit, has been contacting the headquarters to apply for battle.

He commanded the bomber squad consisting of Tunlong bombers, the second bomber squad consisting of nine Type 99 dive bombers, and a squad composed of several Type 96 land attack aircraft obtained from Quzhou, as well as the squadrons obtained from various airports in Shanxi. Eight 8-type heavy explosive squadrons are all ready to go.

All the pilots, mixed with some Eighth Route Army pilots and soldiers who had grown up in a team, all looked excited and full of fighting spirit.

The first confrontation between the Air Force of the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Air Force.

It is destined to shine in the annals of history and shock the whole world.

And they are destined to be the creators of legends!
"Lieutenant Colonel, what is Mr. Commander thinking? The Japanese army has been bombing around Licheng for nearly a day, why didn't they send us to fight?"

After reapplying to play was rejected, Major Davis asked angrily.

But in fact, Doolittle was also on fire right now!
Kong Jie's order was to stand still, wait, and continue to wait.

Waiting for the best time to fight.

But if we wait like this, maybe the air battle in Licheng will be over.

If it were someone else, maybe Doolittle would have raised doubts a long time ago, after all, he was the fierce man who dared to lead his own flying team to attack Tokyo.

But this is Kong Jie.

Doolittle could only patiently order Davis: "Major Davis, please pay attention to maintaining your emotions. I don't want you to fly the plane with anger and impetuous emotions. It is not only against you. Irresponsibility for life is even more irresponsible for fighters.

The unified action of the aviation unit was under the full authority and unified command of the head of the Kong detachment.

If you have any complaints, you can complain directly to him.

As for now, all you have to do is take your team members to the toilet a few more times, reduce some unnecessary load on your fighter planes, and then wipe your butts... I don't want to see you go to the battlefield , due to the urgency of the war, no matter how anxious you are, the shit will come down! "

"Yes sir!"

Major Davis, who was bullied, had no choice but to agree.
