Anti-Japanese blood sacrifice mountains and rivers

What Gao Fei values ​​most is the ammunition load of the b29 super sky fortress heavy bomber. The Americans deploy these big guys on the coast of China, which shows that they will not only launch island hopping operations in the Pacific Ocean, but also prepare to use the many airports along the coast of China. As a base to launch a large-scale bombing of Japan, the low-altitude intrusion bombing of the b29 super sky fortress heavy bomber can be said to be the originator of carpet bombing, and it is also the most destructive and destructive. It can completely destroy the military base of Japan. A blow to the determination of the Japanese to fight to the end. |[-] Literature

Gao Fei clearly remembers that the first round of attacks by the U.S. military using the b29 super sky fortress heavy bomber was in the second half of 1944. Obviously, this attack time was because the U.S. military was fully researching the b29 super sky fortress heavy bomber and conducted Continuous improvement and deployment made it possible to use the coast of China as a base to bomb Japan. In the early morning of April 1943, 120, 29 nine B120 super sky fortress heavy bombers took off from Tianjin, Shandong and other four airports, bombing Located at the Yawata Iron and Steel Works on Kyushu Island, Japan, the attack did not cause much damage. Of the 68 nine planes, only [-] hit the target, two failed to take off due to mechanical failure, two crashed on the way, and one One was shot down by Japanese ground fire, and most of the rest only bombed secondary targets. The Yawata Iron and Steel Works on Kyushu Island, Japan, which was the main first target, was not completely destroyed.

In this bombing, the U.S. Air Force did not take into account the high-altitude convective climate unique to the strong islands over the Japanese mainland. The accuracy of high-altitude bombing was greatly disturbed and affected, and the U.S. military did not capture military bases such as Iwo Jima and Saipan. The frequent attack of a large number of bombers will bring supply problems, and the coast of China is too far away from the map of Japan. The b29 super air fortress heavy bomber that takes off from China must reduce the amount of bombs to carry fuel, so the deployment this time Heavy bomber groups made only limited attacks on Japan.

Gao Fei, who was going to the front line of the Tiger Head Fortress, was delayed by a visitor, because the first large-scale bombing of the Japanese mainland was not effective, so there were two different voices in the United States, Vacomo Lieutenant General Sri Lanka agreed with Marshall's opinion, and postponed the extremely costly Chinese bombing of the Japanese mainland. After the Pacific Ocean began to advance on a large scale, after the strategy of Saipan and Iwo Jima, a large number of B29 super air planes were invested in the above airports. Fortress-type heavy bomber, air enforcement against the Japanese mainland.

The other faction is the unwilling Major General Curtis LeMay. Major General Curtis LeMay believes that there are many reasons for the failure of the first bombing, and it is necessary to analyze the experience and lessons of the failure. Otherwise, even if Iwo Jima is occupied And Saipan, if a large number of aircraft groups are invested in the bombing, they will still encounter similar problems. When encountering problems, they should solve them immediately instead of postponing them irresponsibly. Therefore, Curtis Limei came to Changchun, He needs the support of Gao Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Youth Army, and the Nationalist government. Only when the Chinese strongly insist, will the Roosevelt administration and Marshall consider continuing to increase the necessary strengthening of the strategic bomber units stationed in the Chinese battlefield.Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 891

Gao Fei's first impression of Curtis Li Mei, one of the hawks in the U.S. Air Force, is very ordinary. It may be because of his seemingly lazy and casual attitude. As well as the generals of the allied countries, it seems that there has been an atmosphere of contempt for the Chinese government and even the generals, among which Stilwell is the most serious. However, Gao Fei also knows that the current Chinese theater is begging for food. Naturally, it won't give you too much good looks. As the saying goes, face is given by others, and face is earned by oneself.

It is an iron fact that a weak country has neither justice nor status in the world. After wandering around Gao Fei's headquarters, Curtis Limei lit a cigar and said to Gao Fei: "General Gao, you know that our previous bombing of the Japanese mainland was actually not as effective as we advertised, so many people in China suggested stopping the large-scale bombing first, and waiting for the Pacific Ocean to gradually approach the defense circle of Japan's mainland chain islands. After that, large-scale bombing was carried out. Otherwise, the b29 super sky fortress heavy bomber that took off from China could only carry three-fifths of the bombs due to the range. However, we built more than a dozen airports along the coast and transferred from Kunming More than 3 ground staff, technicians, pilots and other staff have been recruited, and there will be fighter escort troops arriving one after another, so I don't want the bombing mission to be terminated."

Curtis LeMay bit his cigar and looked at Goofy. Goofy was naturally very aware of Curtis LeMay's intentions. The previous large-scale bombing by the U.S. Air Force's Eighth Tactical Bomber Unit on the Yawata Iron and Steel Works in Kyushu Island, Japan was not worth the candle. Therefore, the Americans, under the instigation of some British politicians with ulterior motives, proposed to stop the bombing of the Japanese mainland. Curtis LeMay has just taken over as the commander of the Eighth Tactical Bomber Force. Of course, he wants to continue to expand his force according to the plan. That's why Curtis Li Mei came to visit Gao Fei on his own initiative.

Gao Fei pondered for a moment and said: "I will ask the Nanjing government to ask the government to make a request to the US government to increase the scale and intensity of the bombing of the Japanese mainland, so as to completely destroy Japan's industrial potential and end the fierce battle in the Asian battlefield as soon as possible. , which is also our first strategic goal.”

Curtis Li Mei nodded and said: "I will mobilize more b29 super sky fortress heavy bombers and more supplies. Strategic bombing will become a powerful means to strangle the Japanese and even end the war. General Gao Rest assured, when you need it in combat, my strategic bomber unit can also provide all necessary support like Chennault’s Sino-US joint air force, and in the words of you Chinese, a friend of a friend is also a friend of mine.”

Concerning the gap between Curtis Li Mei's understanding of Chinese and the English translation, Gao Fei smiled helplessly.

When he came to the huge military map, Gao Fei smiled slightly and said, "Then Curtis? General Li Mei, have you considered using special napalm bombs and low-altitude intrusion tactics to carry out large-scale bombing of the Japanese mainland? The bombing effect of bombing is far more ideal than that of conventional bombs, and more than 40.00% of Japanese weapons and ammunition are processed in family workshops, and there are many wooden houses in Tokyo, so the effect of arson is very ideal."
