Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 412: A fatal greeting from the clouds

 The largest marginal sea in the northwest Pacific, one hundred and fifty kilometers southwest of Ishikawa Prefecture.

At a high altitude near a certain coastline, the roar of a piston engine came from far and near.

 Fifty-two Lancasters lined up in a neat four-machine formation, continuing to advance at a cruising speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour.

Diagonally behind the bomber formation is a group of twin-engine heavy fighters with unique aerodynamic shapes.

Compared with the handsome warriors previously equipped by the First Air Division, the appearance of these new fighters is obviously more than one level higher. At first glance, they look like ruthless characters who can fight tough battles.

 “Attention all, we are about to reach enemy airspace.”

“Push the gas! Accelerate! Rush to that hot city as fast as possible! Catch the enemy by surprise!”

 After receiving the order from the pilot crew, all Lancaster bombers began to increase speed silently.

The concentrated water vapor discharged by many piston engines pulled out hundreds of white trail clouds in the low-temperature high sky, which looked like the ruts of majestic chariots driving through.

Such a spectacular scene is enough to frighten any enemy and even make them lose the courage to resist.

  ·······

“The radioman calls the captain, the radioman calls the captain.”

“All squadrons have completed the reporting work and everything is under control. There are no problems with the **** fighters. They currently have plenty of fuel and can return home smoothly even if there is an air battle.”

Hearing the message coming from the internal channel, Fang Ziyi immediately turned his head and looked out the window. His tense expression finally relaxed a little.

 As the captain of the pilot aircraft, the burden on his shoulders is not ordinary.

 In a sense, the results of this strategic bombing mission all depend on whether their crew can take a good lead.

But fortunately, the whole process went smoothly.

Since the comrades set off from the Jiaodong area, only one bomber has been forced to return due to engine failure, and it has now arrived safely at Yongbei Airport in Weihai.

 Other than that, the other squadrons are intact and can directly carry out strategic bombing missions.

Such a negligible loss is quite explosive throughout the current war history.

 Ninety-nine Lancasters rushed towards the core area with all their might. This feat will surely be remembered as a classic forever.

As long as the comrades can go home smoothly today, they will definitely have a place in the future military history.

“Copy that! From the top turret, you can immediately launch a yellow flare to notify each squadron to adjust their formation so that everyone can fly as close together as possible.”

“Everyone, we are about to arrive at the seventh largest island in the world. Enemies may appear at any time. Everyone should be alert and report to me immediately if they find traces of enemy planes or patrol ships.”

 “Next, test-fire the machine gun!”

As the saying goes, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.

Although Fang Ziyi is not too old, he is the only one in the entire crew with combat experience.

 Under the patient guidance of this ace pilot, several fighters remained in top condition from beginning to end and were ready to devote themselves to the battle at any time.

"Da da da"

 Amidst the continuous sound of shooting, the squadrons bombing Tokyo began to climb to the ultimate altitude of eight thousand meters, and moved toward the northeast at full speed.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the mission site, the bombardier licked his dry lips excitedly, and then reported on the internal communication channel:

 “Call the captain, I’m going to pull out the safety pin of the bomb!”

"receive!"

With approval, the bombardier immediately left his post and walked deeper into the belly of the aircraft while holding on to the safety rope.

Arriving at the magazine, his eyes quickly passed over the neatly arranged napalm bombs and high-explosive aerial bombs. These deadly weapons have one thing in common, that is, there are writings written with a brush on the body of each one.

 After a moment, the bombardier took a deep breath and pulled out the first safety bolt with a complex expression.

In the center of the napalm bomb, four powerful and powerful characters were written: Jinling! Jinling!

“Father, mother, fellow villagers, I really hope you can see with your own eyes what the child has done. I swear to God, we must make the enemy pay the price!”

  ·······

 Twenty minutes later, the bombing and **** crews officially entered the airspace of the seventh largest island in the world. At this time, Ishikawa County was in a peaceful mood, and they did not realize that the distinguished guest had arrived. Looking at the motionless coastline below, Fang Ziyi and the first officer beside him both showed doubtful expressions.

ah?

 Is it that easy?

 Where is the promised anti-aircraft artillery team to be on full alert? Where are your land-based fighter jets? Why not take off to intercept?

"Fang formation, this is too easy. It has been a few minutes since we officially entered the enemy's territory. The enemy's reaction speed is really incredible."

“This intensity of combat is not even as good as the training at the border aviation school.”

Hearing this, Fang Ziyi first glared at his partner next to him, signaling him not to let down his guard easily. Then he controlled the Lancaster bomber while analyzing the possibilities behind the incident.

Logically speaking, even if the enemy does not know that the Eighth Route Army has strategic bombers, he will still deploy defenses on the Whale Sea and its coastline.

 After all, this is their homeland. No matter how arrogant the devils are, they will not open their country's doors during the war.

What's more, A Chou and Dai Ying are not stable owners. Who knows if they will do something fancy. There is no investigation team, so what is the difference between committing suicide?

Just when Fang Ziyi was puzzled, a confident face suddenly flashed through his mind.

 Thinking back to the other party's past style of doing things, an answer that adequately explains the current situation gradually emerges.

“Based on my experience, the Japs must have been entangled in some other target. Perhaps, the border area or the headquarters received some important information.

“In short, the devil’s loopholes are rare in a century,”

“The current situation is very favorable to us, we must seize this rare opportunity!”

  ·······

In fact, Fang Ziyi's guess was not wrong at all. There must be a good reason for Huanghe to dare to defy all opinions and let the Air Force carry out strategic bombing missions at this time on April 17.

 First of all, it is naturally due to the desire to win.

 Bombing the enemy's homeland is such a major event that must be included in history textbooks. How could he, Huang, not compete with Chou Guo?

Having traveled across time with Awakening the Brave Tiger, if Doolittle's 17th Air Force Group can still come out on top, wouldn't it be a waste of time for him to come?

Secondly, at this point in April 1942, the goal of the Benzi Navy was to lead Ying and A Chou, and the focus of homeland defense was in the direction of the Pacific and Indian Oceans.

 This means that before the first bombing, the enemy's deployment in the west will definitely be relatively weak.

 Facts have proved that Huang He’s idea was completely correct.

At present, the main mobile force of the Combined Fleet has just completed Yamamoto's seven-by-eight raid plan and is still on its way back to the homeland from the Indian Ocean.

Judging from the opponent's speed, once his base camp suffered a strategic bombing, Nan Yunzhong would not have a chance to save him.

 The Fifth Fleet, which was responsible for homeland defense, did not pay attention to the Republic of China at all. After all, both preserved fruits and TG lack the ability to fight in oceans.

 So they have been fighting around Hokkaido and the Kuril Islands, and the main task of their sentry troops is even ocean reconnaissance.

In other words, at the current point in time, there are only thirty-six surveillance boats active in the open sea that has just passed.

Those fishing boats with a displacement of about 100 tons have extremely poor maneuverability and cannot possibly take care of the entire sea area.

As for Yamato, which has been conducting exercises and shooting training in the inland sea since March?

It would have been protected by Amaterasu if it did not encounter the Third Air Division. The bomber formation rushing to attack the island was carrying torpedoes and goblets. If the two sides are lucky enough to meet, maybe the men's Yamato will have to change the script.

As a result, the only remaining forces that pose a threat to the Eighth Route Army's strategic bombardment mission are the 26th Air Force stationed in Tokyo and the 21st Air Force in Fukuoka.

 The former is mainly responsible for patrol and reconnaissance in the eastern sea, while the latter's land attack force is making final preparations for heading to the south.

To put it bluntly, the above two forces together only have 152 fighter planes of various types. It would be good if they could save their lives under Captain Wang Hai, but they are not qualified to join in the fun at all.

 This is why the fighting heroes also support the attack on April 17th.

 There's nothing to be afraid of when you break through the empty door, just go ahead and just use your big move! Showa air defense, nine out of ten air defenses. Ishikawa is not the coastline of Norway. There are clusters of 88 artillery positions.

Even if the whereabouts are exposed, the enemy will not be able to organize an effective blockade.

 Even if Yamamoto had seven by eight troops stationed on the island for leisure, the First Battle Group, the Second Battle Group, and the two aircraft carriers Hosho and Zuiho under preparation were pulled to the bay, it would not have much effect.

 This very hot city has been destroyed by the explosion. **** cannot save it even if he comes! (End of chapter)
