Chapter 840 The death of General Okabe!

boom!
Naosaburo Okabe's plane plummeted and hit a ball of orange sparks on the hill.

Soon, the place where the plane crashed became filled with smoke.

Although the fuselage of the transport plane was relatively large and difficult to be exploded in the air, the transport plane exploded again after it hit the ground.

The Japanese fighter jets are not only small, but also carry fuel and aerial bombs, and can easily be blown up by 20mm aerial cannons and 12.7mm aerial machine guns.

in fact.

Before the transport plane crashed, Naosaburo Okabe had been beaten into pieces by 20mm aircraft shells.

He watched as the army general's plane he was protecting was shot down to the ground and exploded again.

The faces of the Japanese pilots suddenly showed expressions of horror.

Something happened.

Immediately, the Japanese pilots flying Falcon fighter jets fought desperately with the Eighth Route Army aircraft.

However, compared to the Falcon fighter jet and the Hellcat fighter jet, there is a gap between children and adults.

Not to mention 22 Saber fighter jets.

After only two or three rounds, even if the Japanese pilots tried their best, they could not make up for the performance gap of the aircraft. Most of the Falcon fighter jets flying in the 7th team were shot down.

The few remaining fighter jets turned around and fled when they saw what was going on. They were soon chased by Sabre fighter jets and shot down on the spot.

After all the Japanese planes were shot down, the Eighth Route Army's Saber fighter jets added two incendiary bombs to the crash site of Naosaburo Okabe's plane, blowing up the runway that the Japanese engineers had just repaired at the western suburbs airport.

Then the return flight began.

In Peking City.

Iron Lion Alley.

North China Front Army Command.

Battle Hall.

ding ding ding-

The air-raid sirens in the city continued to ring, and the phone on the table suddenly rang. The combat staff picked it up: "Moxi Moxi?"

"Nani?"

"I'll report to the commander right now!"

After answering the call, the combat staff member couldn't help but change his expression.

Hanging up the phone with a snap, the combat staff quickly walked to Okamura Neji and reported:

"Your Excellency, Commander, there was a call from the airport. All the Locust Army planes were shot down, the airport runway was blown up, and the Eighth Route Army planes fired two incendiary bombs at the location where the transport plane fell."

There were indeed continuous explosions coming from the Xijiao Airport just now.

Corrected with the report from the airport.

"Your Excellency the General."

At this moment, Yusumei San quickly walked in from the door, bowed his head and reported to Okamura Neji:
"I just got in touch with the Kwantung Army Headquarters in the communications room. General Naosaburo Okabe is indeed on that transport plane. The Kwantung Army Headquarters asked us if we need reinforcements?"

Hearing this, the combat staff officer's expression changed immediately, and he quickly lowered his head to express his condolences.

An army general was shot dead. If this news spread to the mainland, it would definitely cause shock to the government and the public.

The general was killed, which was extremely rare in the entire history of Japan.

Seeing the actions of the combat staff, Arisu Seizo's expression changed slightly and he looked at Okamura Neji and Tanabe Moritake.

"Arisue-kun." Moritake Tanabe's face was extremely ugly. "There was news from the airport just now that the plane of General Naosaburo Okabe has been shot down. The Eighth Route Army's plane also fired two incendiary bombs at the crash point."

When Youmo Jingsan heard this, his face changed drastically.

Everyone bowed their heads in condolences.

Okamura Neji's face was a little solemn. When he heard that Hisao Furu was shot down, he was not very sad and even wanted to laugh.

But when he heard that General Naosaburo Okabe was killed, Okamura felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Although Naosaburo Okabe came to Peiping to seize his position as commander of the North China Front.

But Naosaburo Okabe was a general of the empire after all, and he died just like that. He was shot down by an Eighth Route Army plane and two incendiary bombs were fired.

He is also a general of the Imperial Army, and there are also senior agents of the Eighth Route Army lurking around him.

This shows that he cannot leave Peiping. Once he leaves Peiping, he is likely to be killed by the Eighth Route Army's planes.

What Tanabe Moritake and Arisu Seizo were thinking at this time was that they would never leave Peiping.

After 3 minutes, everyone looked up.

"Your Excellency the General."

Chief of Staff Moritakechi Tanabe:

"The death of General Okabe has nothing to do with our North China Front Army Headquarters. I suggest that this situation be reported to His Excellency Prime Minister Tojo immediately."

Judging from the experience of the new commander of the First Army, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi, who was killed.

Since General Okabe Naosaburo was on that plane, there was absolutely no possibility of survival, not to mention that the Eighth Route Army's plane had fired two incendiary bombs.

Even if Amaterasu came, he could not save General Naosaburo Okabe.

Okamura Neji nodded in agreement.

Although General Okabe Naosaburo was shot dead over the western suburbs of Peiping Airport, after all, General Okabe Naosaburo had not yet officially assumed the post of commander of the North China Front.

Moreover, the North China Front Army Headquarters did not know the specific itinerary of Naosaburo Okabe.

In addition, the escorting fighter jets also belonged to the Kwantung Army.

Does this incident have anything to do with the North China Front Army Headquarters?

Of course it matters.

After all, Naosaburo Okabe did this in North China and even Peiping.

"General Okabe Tamaki has nothing to do with me." Neji Okamura said in a leisurely tone, "After all, I have been relieved of my duties by the base camp and am no longer the commander of the North China Front."

Although he has been relieved of his duties, Okamura Neji still does not panic.

Naozaburo Okabe has been shot dead. Do you dare to send another general to replace the commander of the North China Front Army in your headquarters, Tojo Yingji and Tianlocust?
Now, Naosaburo Okabe has been killed. I wonder which general will dare to come?

The water in North China is very deep, and Naosaburo Okabe cannot control it.

When the time comes, Hideji Tojo and Locust, won’t you have to let me continue to be the commander of the North China Front?
Okamura Neji looked at Tanabe Moritake: "Tanabe-kun!" "Hi!"

Tanabe Moritake suddenly bent [-] degrees.

Although Okamura Neiji has been relieved of his position as commander of the North China Front Army.

But within the headquarters, no one dared not to listen to Okamura Neiji's words. Okamura Neiji's words were imperial edict.

Just like in the original drama, Li Yunlong was demoted to the commander of the first battalion of the independent regiment, but the entire regiment still obeyed Li Yunlong's command.

Neiji Okamura said: "Immediately find out the details of the air battle, and then send a telegram to the headquarters of the Kwantung Army and the base camp, and report the situation of General Okabe to the base camp."

"Hi!"

Moritake Tanabe suddenly lowered his head.

……

The new regiment is on the march.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou were riding in a jeep together.

A telegraph operator riding an Oriental horse quickly caught up with him.

Since telegraph operators have to stop at any time to send and receive telegrams, radio stations and telegraph operators are usually at the end of the line.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Li Yunlong quickly ordered Huang Erhu to brake.

Li Yunlong has been holding on to the time. At this time, the telegram came. It should be news about the combat mission of the flying brigade.

The jeep stopped on the side of the road, and Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou jumped out of the car.

"Shut up!"

When they got close, the telegraph operator hurriedly stopped the army horse, then dismounted and reported to Li Yunlong.

"Report to the regimental commander, Deputy Commander Xing telegraphs!"

While speaking, the telegraph operator took out a piece of telegram from his briefcase and handed it to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong took the telegram and read it, and then he couldn't help but grin.

"What did Deputy Commander Xing say in the telegram?"

Seeing the change in Li Yunlong's expression, Zhao Gang couldn't wait to ask:

"Did the flight group successfully complete its mission?"

Wang Dehou on the side also looked at Li Yunlong expectantly.

"Old Zhao, you guessed it right!"

Li Yunlong handed the telegram in his hand to Zhao Gang:

"Deputy Commander Xing just sent a telegram. The flight brigade has successfully completed its mission and wiped out all Japanese aircraft above the Xijiao Airport in Peiping."

"Great!"

"Good job!"

Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou suddenly smiled and said loudly one after another.

Although at this time, the Eighth Route Army aircraft on mission had not yet returned to the airport.

However, the success of shooting down all Japanese planes has been communicated to the airport tower via radio.

Then the airport tower called and reported to Deputy Commander Xing, who then sent a telegram to Li Yunlong and others.

If Naosaburo Okabe was on that transport plane, he would be dead.

"Captain, would you like to send a clear telegram?"

Wang Dehou looked at Li Yunlong and asked:

"I have already prepared the telegram."

While speaking, Wang Dehou took out a prepared telegram from his pocket about the Eighth Route Army's killing of a Japanese army general.

Li Yunlong looked at Wang Dehou with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. With such a chief of staff, fighting would be much easier.

Because he will do everything in advance.

In the nearly one year since joining the New Regiment, Wang Dehou's military level has also improved by leaps and bounds.

With Wang Dehou's current tactical command ability and strategic vision, there is no problem at all in commanding a division to fight.

"There's no rush." ​​Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "We'll wait for the telegram from Boss Chen first. It's not too late to invent a coded telegram after confirming the killing of General Naosaburo Okabe."

According to previous experience, Boss Chen will definitely send a piece of information confirming whether Naosaburo Okabe was killed.

Boss Chen's information has never been wrong before, and this time is no exception.

"Okay." Wang Dehou smiled slightly and immediately put away the telegram he had written.

……

Japan.

Tokyo.

Prime Minister's Office.

Hideji Tojo is considering candidates for the chief of staff and deputy chief of staff of the North China Front Army Command.

Before Naosaburo Okabe left Tokyo, he made a request to Hideji Tojo to replace the members of the North China Front Army Headquarters team.

In order to replace Okamura Neji, Tojo Hideji had to agree.

Soon, Hideji Tojo determined the candidates for the Chief of Staff and Deputy Chief of Staff of the North China Front:
Lieutenant General Sanji Ojoto and Major General Sadaki Nakanishi.

But at this moment, a staff officer wearing the rank of major general walked in quickly with a telegram in his hand, lowered his head with an ugly face and reported:

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister."

"I just received an urgent call from the North China Front Army Headquarters. General Okabe..."

Tojo Hideji stared at the information of Lieutenant General Ojoto Sanji and Major General Nakanishi Sadaki, without even realizing that a tragedy had occurred.

Tojo Hideji looked relaxed and asked casually: "Has General Okabe arrived in Peiping?"

The major general's staff paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "General Okabe's jade is broken!"

"Nani?" Tojo Hideji suddenly raised his head and said in a deep voice, "What did you say? General Okabe's jade is broken?"
