Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

Under the cover of night, the heavily guarded Qingdao Military Port Wharf looks extremely mysterious.And in this mysterious military port, five thousand elites of the First Marine Brigade of the National Defense Forces gathered at several piers, and without saying a word, they boarded several transport ships in full armor under the orders of commanders at all levels.

On the sea about two kilometers away from the port, two light battleships and four cruisers assembled by two squadrons under the Navy of the National Defense Forces are all centered on the battleship and scattered around the military port in a fan shape. Escorted by several transport ships.

The destroyers with the largest number of equipment in the National Defense Forces are scattered and cruise on the sea farther from the port, on alert to ensure that the military operation does not expose the target.

As the key force for this maritime sneak attack, it will also play an important role in the entire fleet's marching process, preventing the entire fleet from exposing the target's submarine dragons, and the National Defense Force Navy Fleet Submarine Brigade. A total of 48 submarines all left the port more than an hour ago. Make sure that there are no ships within [-] nautical miles around the fleet's marching route, so as to avoid exposing the target of the naval fleet's collective attack...

Less than 500 meters away from the wharf, the command room overlooking the entire Qingdao Military Port, a staff officer in the uniform of a navy captain walked quickly into the command room.After paying a military salute to Sun Haijun and others, he opened his mouth and reported: "Commander, the submarine brigade sent a telegram, centered on the port, within a range of [-] nautical miles ahead, and there are no suspicious targets. The fleet can leave the port according to the original plan..."

Sun Haijun nodded, then turned to another subordinate in front of him and asked, "Staff Wang, have all the marine brigades boarded the ship, and are the other ships ready to go..."

Asked by Sun Haijun, Staff Officer Wang hurriedly reported: "Report to the commander. The brothers of the marine brigade have all boarded the ship... Transport ships, battleships, cruisers, destroyers, and seaplane carriers are all ready and ready to go at any time. "

A smile finally appeared on Sun Haijun's face.After a short period of contemplation, he ordered decisively: "Call back the submarine brigade immediately: The submarine brigade will continue to move forward, open a route for the fleet, and ensure that there are no ships within 5 nautical miles on both sides of the route that may expose our military targets... First, Second Fleet According to the original plan, escort all transport ships. Under the guidance of the submarine brigade, march towards Vladivostok...the fleet will set off in [-] minutes..."

When the order was issued, Sun Haijun quickly turned his attention to the deputy commander of the navy, and waited: "Old Wang, I will hand over the coastal defense line of our national defense force to you. Is there any pressure? surface ships and submarine forces."

The deputy commander confidently assured: "Commander, since our navy is equipped with radar and naval aviation, I don't worry about it anymore. Unless the little devils send out their entire main fleet, otherwise, I will have as much appetite as it drives. Destroy How many of them, let them come and go."

There are more than 20 ships in size, except for the dull roar of the engine.Except for the "plop" sound of the sea water hitting the hull of the warship, there was no other sound of anger.The entire fleet is like a ghost in the night.Slowly sailing away from the military port, disappearing into a dark sea...

The Battle of Tonghua is over.The Second Air Division, which had achieved significant results in the Battle of Tonghua, received an order to go to Shenyang Airport to replenish lost equipment and personnel before it had time to rest.

Facing the bombers and fighter jets shining under the sun and emitting bursts of cold light, all the officers and soldiers of the Second Air Division showed joyful smiles full of excitement.And just when everyone had just lived a peaceful life for two days, and the exhausted look covering their bodies slowly began to dissipate, a hurried whistle from the airport shell suddenly interrupted this peaceful life.

The whistle sounded, and the gate of the pilot's barracks, which was still locked just now, was quickly pushed open.Then, one by one, the fully armed pilots, like frightened rabbits, rushed out of the barracks and rushed towards the direction of the airport when the whistle sounded.Soon, a huge square formed by more than 200 pilots and bomber crews appeared in front of Gao Zhihang, commander of the Second Air Division.

After more than a dozen barracks did not have a single pilot rushing out, an officer on duty with the lieutenant colonel on his shoulders quickly stood out from the middle of the queue.After paying a military salute to Gao Zhihang, he reported loudly: "Reporting to the division seat, there should be 245 officers and soldiers of the Second Air Division, but there were actually 231. The other 14 were all injured and hospitalized, and are receiving treatment... The report is over."

Gao Zhihang waved his hand and signaled for the lieutenant colonel to return to the team. Then he ordered to his more than 200 subordinates: "Brothers of the Second Air Division, many of you are from the Northeast just like me. As a Northeast People, or former Northeast military officers, I believe that you all know the old Maozi in the north very well."

"Now, I have a question for everyone: Everyone knows that at this moment, the old Soviet Union is attacking our three northeastern provinces while our troops are empty. What do you think of this old... "

After finishing speaking, Gao Zhihang directly shifted his gaze to a colonel commander under his command, and asked, "Commander Wang, like me, you are from the former Northeast Army and were stationed on the Sino-Soviet border. explain……"

"Yes, Master..."

Under everyone's gaze, the called head Wang quickly told about an experience he once had at the border.Then, he said to the indignant colleague in front of him: "Master, I think the old man is a more hateful enemy than the little devil."

"Let's not talk about the large area of ​​land currently occupied by the old Soviet Union, just because of the tragic murders that the old Maozi once caused on the Sino-Soviet border. The old Maozi is our enemy, the eternal enemy of our Chinese nation. If you give me a chance , I will definitely take back all the things that the old Maozi once robbed us, and shoot all the old Maozi who committed bloody crimes on our Chinese soil. No, it is cheaper for them to be shot. I have to pay the price for my past actions, the price of blood..."

Speaking of this, the head of the third bomber regiment with a face full of anger suddenly reacted when he thought of the Chinese and Soviet armies that were currently fighting.After a quick flash of light in a pair of eyes, he asked Gao Zhihang tentatively: "Master, are we going to fight the old man... Did the general headquarters issue an order to let our Second Air Division join the battle to fight the old man... ..."

The voice fell.The eyes of other members of the Second Air Division all focused on Gao Zhihang.not only.The puzzled expression on his face was also covered by heat.

Gao Zhihang nodded noncommittally and replied: "Commander Wang is right. Compared with little devils, Soviet old men are more hateful, and they are the enemy of the last among us. Since everyone has already guessed it, I don't want to." Keep it a secret from everyone: From now on, our Second Air Division will participate in the battle against the old Soviet Union."

Seeing the subordinate in front of him who wanted to speak because of excitement, Gao Zhihang quickly waved his hand, after everyone's eyes focused on him again.He continued to speak: "Before I give you the specific orders given to us by the general headquarters, I will give you a briefing on the enemy's situation. I hope everyone is prepared."

"Everyone knows that under the leadership of the commander-in-chief, my heroic National Defense Forces successfully wiped out 18 elite Soviet Red Army troops and won the first phase of the war against the Soviet Union. However, the Soviet government, which is full of ambitions and wants to turn the three northeastern provinces into their colonies Not reconciled to failure, once again dispatched an army of 40 from the Far East to attack us..."

"That is to say, this military operation of our National Defense Forces will directly face a full 50 troops of the Soviet Red Army. Such a huge gap directly means that the outcome of this battle is full of suspense. Everyone in our Second Air Division, and even myself, all It is possible to die on the battlefield. Therefore, I hope that when I give the order, at least our brothers in the second air division can be mentally prepared, and don’t become cowards after actually going to the battlefield..."

Under Gao Zhihang's instigation, more than 200 officers and soldiers faced their faces.They all showed hot expressions from their hearts.As if they had discussed it, they asked Gao Zhihang in unison, "Please give me an order..."

"Okay...these are the eagles of our Second Air Division..." Gao Zhihang nodded very satisfied.He praised everyone.

Then, the excited expression on his face was covered by seriousness.He opened his mouth and said to everyone: "Brothers, according to the intelligence reality, the 20 troops of the Soviet Red Army reinforced from the rear have been assembled in Manchuria and are ready to march towards the three northeastern provinces of our country. At the same time, all the logistics supplies and supplies of the Soviet 20 Red Army Ammunition is also stored in Manchuria. In order to delay the time when the 20 Soviet troops entered the three northeastern provinces of our country, the general headquarters decided to order our Second Air Force Division to carry out an air strike to destroy Manchuria, and hoard Soviet old men in Manchuria. It is said that there are materials Destroy all..."

"Because this air strike was an active attack by our air force, and at this moment Manchuria is already under the rule of the Soviets. Therefore, the entire bombing operation is full of danger. More importantly, once our fighter planes are destroyed by the enemy, we will It will fall into the hands of the old Soviet Union. Therefore, everyone must be psychologically and prepared for battle."

After the fiery expressions on everyone's faces were gradually covered by seriousness, Gao Zhihang no longer hesitated, and decisively ordered: "Now I order all the officers and soldiers of the Second Air Force Division to set off in half an hour and bomb Manzhouli...all ground crews, give them immediate attention." All the bombers were replaced with incendiary bombs, and in order to increase the bomb load, the fighter planes had to carry two [-]-kilogram incendiary bombs.”

As a small town on the Sino-Soviet border, it is very important just in terms of geographical location.However, no matter how important it was, it was located on the icy Sino-Soviet border after all, so it was doomed that this small town could not have too many people.

However, with the approach of the Sino-Soviet War, this small town unexpectedly became lively.Hundreds of thousands of materials needed by the Soviet Red Army every day were all transferred to Manzhouli as a transit point.Especially in the past few days, as a group of old Maozi troops began to enter Manzhouli and stationed in the surrounding areas of Manzhouli.All kinds of materials from the train began to be continuously transported to Manzhouli for hoarding, because Manzhouli is too small, and there are not so many houses to store materials.Faced with more and more supplies, the old Maozi had to pile up food and other non-essential supplies in the open space by category. Looking down from the air, they looked like hills rising from the ground, which was particularly spectacular...

Such a huge amount is almost a huge amount of material related to the life and death of 20 Soviet Red Army.Even if the commander of the Soviet Army in Manzhouli tried his best, he would not dare to treat it with caution.

In addition, it is no secret within the Soviet Red Army that the Chinese Air Force is equipped with a fighter whose performance far exceeds that of the Soviet Air Force.The commander of the Soviet Army in Manzhouli directly used all of an air defense brigade assigned to him by the General Command.Taking companies as units, they are scattered throughout Manchuria.

However, because there are too many materials hoarded in Manchuria.The range of stacking is too wide.Coupled with the almost plain terrain of Manzhouli, the Soviet commander who only had one air defense brigade could not defend against it.

The mighty fleet of the Second Air Division had just flown into the airspace 20 kilometers away from Manzhouli.It was discovered by the [-] Soviet Red Army stationed around Manzhouli.Soon, a sharp air defense siren sounded.It began to reverberate over Manchuria.

The officers and soldiers of the anti-aircraft brigade who were originally scattered throughout Manchuria quickly entered the position and raised the black holes of the anti-aircraft guns.The old Maozi infantry scattered around Manchuria also knew the importance of hoarding a large amount of supplies in Manchuria to themselves.After learning that the Chinese Air Force was preparing to air strike Manzhouli, it immediately dispatched its own air defense force to enter Manzhouli for air defense.

For a while, the whole of Manchuria began to fall into brief chaos because of the sudden air defense siren.

However, chaos is chaos.The number of various anti-aircraft weapons within Manchuria is increasing exponentially.

Thirty kilometers away, for a high-speed cruising aircraft, it takes at most 5 minutes to visit the sky over Manzhouli.

Under the stunned gaze of the old man on the ground, the first batch of twelve Wildcat fighter jets, which were only hung with two [-]-kilogram napalm bombs, left the formation first.With a sharp whistling sound, they rushed to Manchuria from different directions to test the anti-aircraft firepower deployed by the Soviet Red Army in Manchuria...

8000m….6000m….5000m…..

The twelve fighters that were completely dispersed were just within the range of the ground anti-aircraft artillery.At least one hundred anti-aircraft fire tongues of various thicknesses.Just shoot at yourself from the ground.Relying on his dexterous flight performance and the fact that the fighter planes were too far from the ground, the anti-aircraft bullets fired by Lao Maozi were not very accurate. The twelve fighter jets avoided the ground anti-aircraft fire very deftly.Quickly fly out of the range of ground anti-aircraft firepower...

Although some trials did not achieve any results, the Soviet Red Army on the ground still had intensive anti-aircraft firepower.Gao Zhihang has already seen it.After a short period of contemplation, he decisively ordered: "First Fighter Battalion. Drop bombs at an altitude of 6000 meters. After the bombs are dropped, immediately patrol around the battlefield to guard..."

"The First Bomber Squadron. First attack Lao Maozi's supplies hoarded in the outskirts of Manchuria. No accidents. All these supplies are not particularly important grains. Lao Maozi's anti-aircraft firepower must be very weak... However, there is one thing that Lao Maozi does not have." Thinking that as long as these supplies are ignited by napalm bombs, the entire sky over Manchuria will be covered in thick smoke. At that time, even if they are equipped with more anti-aircraft weapons, they will all become blind...."

"Two squadrons, start attacking right away... The other squadrons are cruising over the battlefield, and after the ground targets are completely covered by thick smoke, they are conducting devastating air strikes on Manchuria...."

"Buzzing... woo woo..." The roar of the engine of the fighter plane broke through the air, and the sharp whistling sound of quickly diving down to the ground... quickly enveloped the entire battlefield.

The 12 napalm bombs mounted on 24 fighter jets landed in Manchuria in a very 'messy' and inaccurate manner after flying in the sky for tens of seconds, under the dumbfounded gaze of Lao Maozi.However, what shocked the old men on the ground was that this kind of bomb was not the ordinary bomb they imagined, but a napalm bomb they had never seen before...

A napalm bomb exploded, centering on the impact point, the area within a radius of tens of meters was quickly covered by a raging sea of ​​flames.

Although more than 20 napalm bombs did not directly hit an ammunition depot that stocked a large amount of Soviet ammunition.However, the ever-spreading sea of ​​flames ignited several old sub-ammunition depots stocked with shells.

As the fire continued to burn, the temperature inside the ammunition depot also began to rise...

In less than a minute, a large-caliber heavy artillery shell closest to the flame finally couldn't bear the continuous roasting of high temperature, and exploded suddenly.

For a while, the sound of shell explosions spread rapidly to the entire ammunition depot like a plague.

A heavy artillery shell exploded, and the large-caliber shells piled up in the surrounding area were quickly lifted into the sky by the air waves that swept away, and fell tens of meters away from the ammunition depot, even hundreds of meters away, and continued to explode...

In a blink of an eye, several ammunition depots affected by napalm bombs exploded one after another.And the shells that exploded from the martyrdom detonated other ammunition depots within a radius of hundreds of meters around the ammunition depot again...

The ammunition depots hoarded by the Soviet army in Manchuria exploded one after another under the attack of napalm bombs.The 12 bombers that carried out the first round of dive bombing had already smashed dozens of heavy-duty napalm bombs weighing [-] kilograms to the grain piles that were more than ten meters high on the ground with their characteristic sharp whistling sound.

The napalm bomb exploded, and a large amount of combustion accelerant was quickly sprayed around, quickly igniting the entire grain pile.In addition, Lao Maozi’s stockpile of grain is all flour, facing the raging fire that suddenly ignited on the surface, a scene that shocked everyone suddenly appeared on the battlefield...
