The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

()ps: Congratulations on the successful launch of the Shenzhou [-] manned spacecraft!

"But... it's five days ahead of schedule, isn't it too hasty?"

After all, Sugiyama Moto is scheming, and he said this in a more subtle way. What he really meant was that if he continued to implement the previous plan with so many changes, would he suffer an unacceptable failure?

After all, the idea of ​​dispatching bombers to attack China, especially the capital, is grand, and the benefits brought by success are unimaginable.However, judging from the preliminary preparations, China's defense capabilities are also amazing. If hundreds of fighters and bombers are dispatched at that time, if they fail and all of them are folded in, it will be too ugly!The current empire can't afford too much bad news!The cabinet and the navy and army have dropped a lot of bragging, and they can't hold it anymore! . .

Before Ishihara smiled, Tojo waved his hand arrogantly: "I don't think there is any need to worry so much! Since it is for the long-term interests of the empire, some sacrifices are acceptable. In addition, the internal discord in China, other The Zhongyang Air Force was so embarrassed by our flying regiment that they even started to buy fighter planes from the United States, which shows that their background is very insufficient. As long as we make up our minds, even if we pay the price of [-] fighter planes, we will completely destroy their spirit of resistance. It's worth it too!"

His old face was flushed, his eyes gleamed with excitement, and his saliva almost sprayed into other people's tea bowls, which made a group of stable conservatives who didn't like him very much frown.

. .

The corner of Sugiyama Yuan's mouth twitched twice, at least he didn't say anything to reprimand him, and turned his questioning gaze to Ishihara Waner.

It is well known that Ishihara looks down on Hideki Tojo. Even this year, he successfully ascended the throne of the deputy chief of staff without being forcibly retired, and Tojo's obstacles were not missing in the middle.In fact.His Mongolian military exploits and huge price that he didn't keep for half a year are actually not very dazzling.

If Japan hadn't encountered unprecedented troubles, all the talented and wise men in the army would have been hacked to death by their passionate officers. They had no choice but to use him.after all.He has been propagating that Japan's continuous offensive is wrong. This is against other officers who are eager to make meritorious service!

Hearing this, Ishihara didn't even look at Hideki Tojo, and there was only a trace of sarcasm on his thinner face, and he said calmly: "We have no other choice! The failure of the navy is inevitable, and only through strategic and political Only by using superior means to force China to make concessions can we buy precious time for us to end the war. The current production capacity of the China Air Force is insufficient, which is the best news for us. After this time, we must face their active attack!"

He saw very accurately that China's industrial foundation is too weak.In the past eight years, although it has been crazy to establish a complete set of basic industrial systems.It is even better than Japan in terms of completeness; but it is still insufficient in scale.It will take at least five years to surpass it.

But a problem that cannot be ignored is that China's limited industry has much higher technical standards and production efficiency than Japan's. It can be seen from the products it exports, and it can be judged from the military equipment it produces. If Japan does not suppress it with all its strength, it will wait for more and more crazy revenge.

Between China and Japan, there is no peace.

Sugiyama Moto was startled.Nodding cautiously with pursed mouth: "Well! Deputy Chief Ishihara's words are very reasonable! The speed of China's development cannot be underestimated! Only by maintaining the advantage in scale can the empire suppress them absolutely! Then do this !"

He tapped his hairy hands on the table.Set the tone.

Tojo Hideki snorted unhappily, not convinced in his heart, why such a decision must be for a guy like Ishihara who is getting timid?He thinks too highly of China, just relying on that dish of loose sand, if there is no external force.I'm afraid it will be torn apart due to infighting?

Catch up with the Empire?No way!

Most of the people present were not as arrogant as him.China's vast territory, large population, and rich resources are all incomparable to Japan.Even if we now have the four provinces of Manchuria, we have worked hard for five or six years.It just more than doubled the country's industrial level, but its potential is obviously not as good as that of China.

Not to mention anything else, a stretched number of workers is enough to cause headaches.Nowadays, teenagers who are over 16 years old and unable to study are stuffed into factories and mines, and tens of millions of North Koreans and Chinese in Northeast China are also coerced into them. This is not enough.

But what about China?Every year, the number of qualified workers and reservists surges at a rate of millions, and in a few years, the number of their workers will exceed the total population of Japan!How scary it is that the army can pull out 1000 million!

In extraordinary times, we must act decisively.Compared with the usual lengthy and procrastinated meetings, this time it was obviously much cleaner.As soon as the decision was made, at five o'clock in the afternoon that day, when the sun was slanting westward, a total of nearly [-] planes of various colors took off from more than a dozen airports in Japan, Taiwan, Jeju Island, and southern North Korea, heading towards southeast China. Fly slowly along the coast.

这大片的机群中，包括100多架航程极远的a6m6战机和“终极零战”，100多架j1n2“月光”双发夜间战斗机；200多架g3m双引擎远程轰炸机，以及少量的ki48双引擎轰炸机。

Without exception, these aircrafts have a range of more than 2500 kilometers. As the main force, the g3m has a maximum range of more than 6000 kilometers, which is enough to start from the mainland and take a stroll in the southwest of China before returning.

All planes are equipped with night flight equipment to ensure that they will not fly and fall into the sea, or go to other places in a daze.In order to ensure surprise, they even chose to set off in the evening. All the airports are secret locations that are inaccessible and difficult to be detected.

For the sake of confidentiality, even the wired telephone link is used to convey the order, and the special plane is used to deliver it face-to-face, and even the coded telegram is not used. It is really frightened by the omniscient deciphering ability of the Chinese!Rather troublesome, but also to ensure foolproof!

A total of [-] planes of all colors carried enough ammunition as much as possible. After taking off from different directions, at around [-] o'clock in the evening, they successfully landed in the middle of the Yellow Sea, with Yongjia as the center, and divided them into dozens of front and rear areas. Come in small batches.

All the radar systems in this area were disabled by repeated bombing, and the rapid destruction of the Japanese army after landing created a gap of hundreds of kilometers in width; , The entire airspace was occupied by hundreds of fighter planes taking off from the six aircraft carriers of the Second Fleet in turn, fighting with the Zhongyang Air Force, and no one could control it.

At 08:30 in the evening, a huge fleet of aircraft lined up in a [-]-kilometer column swarmed in from the gap!

Almost at the same time as its forward broke through, the Zhoushan, Hangzhou, and Jinhua radar networks immediately alerted, and then the night patrol plane of the East China Sea Fleet issued the highest red alert to report that a large number of enemy planes had invaded the airspace!

How much is it?No less than five hundred!

Lao Jiang, who was in Nanjing, was so shocked that he couldn't sleep for a long time. At this time, his military uniform was still undressed, and he was directing the overall situation in the base camp with a straight face.The sudden police report and the ensuing machine number report made him almost slip out of his chair, mother Xipi!Five hundred planes, is this trying to kill me? !

Zhou Zhirou was on the sidelines at any time, and reported to him profusely at this moment: "Chairman! According to our analysis, the Japanese army is most likely to dispatch their night fighters and bombers, and the target is probably the capital! Therefore, I suggest you Shall we go outside the city first...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Lao Jiang slapped the table vigorously, and shouted angrily: "I'm not going anywhere! I'm going to wait here to see if Ri himself dares to drop the bomb on my head! Niang Xipi , do you really think that I dare not fight to the end with them?!"

The clay figurine is still angry, not to mention the most face-saving Lao Jiang! He is not afraid of how the Japanese army toss around on the periphery, and the loss is within an acceptable range.But if the capital was bombed, it would be a direct slap in the face!Five hundred planes!Even if each bomb only carries 250 kilograms, one guy is [-] tons!Enough to blow up the entire Jinling City into ruins!

Old Jiang gasped and pointed at Zhou Zhirou: "Go, tell Zhu Hanchen, tell him to find a way to solve the whole trouble no matter what! If the capital is bombed, I will punish him for the crime of colluding with the enemy even if he is not the chairman of the committee." !"

At this time, I can't care about any decency!It's important to save your life!Zhu Bin has a trump card, Lao Jiang knows it very well.In the past, it was not enough, but now it is impossible not to ask for help!

Zhou Zhirou thought to herself, is Zhu Bin the easy-to-talk master?Order him to act?There is no door, and persuasion with nice words may not work.But the boss ordered it down. If he can't handle it well, he has to think about his own future and brain problems.

Reluctantly, He Weiwei obeyed the order and turned to contact Zhu Bin. Unexpectedly, the person on the other side replied coldly: "We have dispatched relevant forces to intercept, please wait for the good news, Chairman!"

When Lao Jiang heard the report, he was puzzled. When did Zhu Bin become so active?It's not his character to jump out and offer to help without yelling!Could it be... Any other ideas?

How did he know that when Zhu Bin detected a large group of Japanese planes in the East China Sea Fleet, he laughed excitedly, patted his thigh and shouted: "Not bad! The little devil really can't help but want to shoot! I'm still worried that they will see That's fine, take it."

Most people can't understand why he is so excited.You must know that this is an air raid at night. It is difficult to intercept such a large group of enemy planes with fighter jets alone.Another one, what is he going to do?

Cao Han, who was connected to him, reconfirmed uneasy: "Are you really going to let Ri himself bomb Nanjing?"

Zhu Bin gritted his teeth: "If their bombs don't fall on the capital, how can I have enough excuses to bomb Tokyo? Don't worry! Everything is under control, and there won't be much loss!"

Cao Han couldn't persuade him, he thought it would be the safest way to do so, so he didn't say anything.

Zhu Bin contacted the two fleets of the North Sea and the South China Sea in high spirits, speeding up, attacking from the north and the south, and cooperating with the East China Sea Fleet to wrap Nanyun Zhongyi's second fleet in the East China Sea.

Then, let the "big-billed parrot" speed up and go straight to the inland airspace, blocking the Japanese military aircraft group! (To be continued.)
