Take Taobao to fight against Japan

Relying on his strength, Wang Buli established an independent kingdom in the Japanese-occupied area, implemented a thorough independent line, held high the banner of resistance to Japan, and resisted all other forces at the same time.

He does not allow the Kuomintang regular army and wandering troops to get involved in central Hubei, no matter who enters his territory, he will beat anyone!

In this independent kingdom, in order to establish his absolute authority, he "lawed the law like a mountain" and exercised strict control over the common people, stipulating that if a person broke the law, he would kill his whole family, his security chief, his neighbors, and burn his house.

Wang has been competitive since he was a child, and he is suspicious and suspicious. He is always on guard against other people's plotting, so he plots against others even more viciously.

Regardless of his closeness or closeness, he would kill someone if he turned his face. He has executed teachers, classmates, colleagues, subordinates and even his cousin.

Therefore, in Chongqing, the newspapers described him as a "big monster in central Hubei" with a green face and fangs.

Previously, Taro Koga, commander of the Japanese Army's Wuhan security, was Wang Buri's defeated general. Later, they wanted to use Zhao Xiang and Wang Buri to take down Ezhong without firing a single shot, so they sent four traitors to persuade them to surrender.

The condition offered was that as long as Wang surrendered to the Japanese army, he would be the commander-in-chief of the 20 Imperial Army in Hubei.

However, Wang Buri, who had a firm stance against the Japanese War, was furious after reading the persuasion letter, and asked one of the traitors to take the letter back, and the other three traitors were pushed out to "use knives".

So the angry Japanese army organized a wave of powerful offensives, but they were still defeated.

Until now, after Ningji Okamura took office as the commander-in-chief of the China Dispatch Army, the first soft persimmon that came to mind was this "big monster in Central Hubei".

However, the stick beat the first bird. Ananwei used heavy troops to encircle and suppress him several times before, but every time he failed because he underestimated the enemy.

This time, Tsukada's new official took office as the third fire, so he naturally paid special attention to this "Jiangbei Annihilation War", and started preparations after taking over as the commander of the No. 11 Army.

Tsukada first dispatched the No.14 Flying Team to scout the Honghu area, took pictures of the rivers and lakes, roads, village barracks, and fortification systems in the garrison of Wang Buli Division, compiled an aerial map, and distributed it to the ground troops, asking them to refer to the combat map for operations train.

In this "Jiangbei Annihilation War", Tsukada attacked a total of 15 Japanese troops and 10 imperial alliance troops, and also dispatched a large-scale armored force and combat aircraft fleet.

战役从7月26日开始，到8月12日结束，日军接连攻陷湖北监利、洪湖和长江南岸的湖南华容地区，歼灭华夏军队的第118师、第128师和第六战区挺进军等几万人。

Wang Buli's division put up a strong resistance, but was still defeated by the Japanese army.

When the Japanese cavalry cleared the battlefield, they found a cloak of good quality. Knowing that it was not owned by an ordinary officer, they quickly pursued it and captured Wang Buli.

The Japanese army occupied Shashi on the north bank of the Yangtze River and Shishou on the south bank in this "Jiangbei Annihilation War".

So not long after the "Jiangbei Annihilation War" had come to an end, Tsukada Gong hurriedly started the "Jiangnan Annihilation War", concentrating 20 troops to attack the northwest area of ​​Dongting Lake from Ouchikou, Huarong and Bailuoji.

Its strategic intention was to defeat the main force of the Sixth Theater and the Chinese and American air forces, control the Yangtze River waterway between Yichang and Yueyang, and plunder ships near Yichang to make up for the shortage of Japanese military ships in the Yangtze River area. City, Xiangyang, Jingmen and other areas.

After the Japanese army carried out the "Jiangbei Annihilation War", Chen Cixiu had foreseen that Tsukata's attack would lead to Longwangshu, so he quickly mobilized 18 troops from 40 armies in five groups to deploy defenses along the Yangtze River and its deep areas.

The Huaxia garrison has two extremely important favorable conditions this time. One is the assistance of a powerful air force, and the other is the participation of the 5st Army composed of the 71th Army and the 31st Army.

The 31st Group Army is a full-stacked mechanized army with a total strength of 10. It is already the most powerful ace army in the national army sequence.

After the victory in the Battle of Changsha, the 31st Group Army has been placed under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Theater, responsible for defending the gateway to the accompanying capital Chongqing, and defending the hard-won fruits of victory in the Battle of Changsha.

With these two extremely favorable combat conditions, it might not be so easy for Tsukada Gong to make persistent efforts.

In this battle, the Huaxia Army became the Battle of Western Hubei.

Another thing to say is that at this moment, the Huben Army has withdrawn to the territory of Henan, leaving only a few flying regiments to cooperate to guard the airspace.

Facing the national government that has always been reluctant to welcome coordinated defense, Yang Fan knows what is called "melon fields and plums". At this time, he does not want the national government to misunderstand that he has any "bad intentions", which will cause conflicts and internal friction.

Therefore, Yang Fan asked Ren Yixiong to try to take the initiative to propose to the Nationalist Government that the Huben Army in Hubei be withdrawn from the original defense zone.

As a result, the national government happily agreed.

Therefore, Yang Fan retracted his fist first, and waited for an opportunity according to the actual situation in the future!

But just as the Battle of Western Hubei was about to start, the "せ" operation launched by Japan was still going on fiercely, and the enemy and us were fighting inextricably.

The Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway is an east-west traffic artery, starting from Hangzhou in the east, intersecting with the Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway, passing through Zhuji and Jiangshan, entering Yushan, Jiangxi, and connecting with the Guinan Railway at Guixi.

Go further west, cross the Poyang Plain, connect to the Nanxun Railway, enter Zhuzhou, Hunan via Pingxiang, and connect with the Guangdong-Han Railway.There are many Chinese air force bases along the route, and their strategic positions are extremely important.

Neji Okamura’s main intention in launching the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Battle was to defeat the Chinese army in Zhejiang Province, destroy its main air base, confiscate and destroy railway facilities and equipment, and other military, political, and economic facilities and materials used to cultivate combat power .

In order to achieve the goal of looting materials and abducting young and middle-aged people to "support war with war", it will create favorable conditions for the next attack on Changsha and the rear of the Anti-Japanese War.

If the Japanese army wanted to compete for this strategically important area, Gu Mosan's third war zone and Xue Boling's ninth war zone would naturally have to fight.

The main force of the Chinese army was concentrated in the eastern section of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway, using the established positions to resist one by one, delaying and containing the Japanese army.

委员长准备在衢州附近与日军决战，为加强第三战区的兵力，国民政府军事委员会陆续从第九战区抽调了第49军、第19军、第26军、第74军、第31军加强第三战区。

He also ordered Gu Mosan to step up the attack on the Japanese army, try to protect the airports in Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and pull the main force of the Japanese army in this area to reduce the pressure on Hunan, so as to ensure the victory of the Western Hubei Battle and the safety of Sichuan.

This is what the Chinese army called the Battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and the Japanese army called it the "せ" battle.

Gu Mosan ordered the 25th Army to fight in southern Zhejiang, the 10th Army to fight south of the Qiantang River and defend Jinhua and Lanxi, and the 32nd Army to fight on the north bank of the Qiantang River.

第31军、第100军担任浙赣路西段的作战，第26军和第74军控制衢州，第23集团军担任宁国、贵池和都昌一线的守备。

Xue Boling also sent three armies to operate in eastern Jiangxi to support operations in the third theater.

Chapter 1456

On August 1942, 8, stars twinkled in the meeting room of the Yangon Theater Command, Myanmar.

At this moment, a military meeting of senior generals above the division level is being held, and the minimum rank of the participants is also a major general.

But even so, the huge conference room was still full, with nearly 200 people.

There is no way, the strength does not allow low-key, and with the return of more than 20 expeditionary soldiers, the armed forces in Myanmar have reached one million, and they have been organized into [-] military-level units!

After one and a half years of operation and development in Myanmar, Myanmar has not only built a huge industrial chain, but also achieved great development in the people's livelihood economy, judicial construction, military construction and other aspects have also made great progress.

The first batch of trainees of the Burmese Army Officer Academy is about to graduate, and will soon fill the ranks of the Chinese and Burmese armies, and will become its backbone force in the future, playing an unparalleled role.

Generally speaking, Yang Fan has managed Myanmar here into an iron barrel country, and it has radiated unprecedented vitality, which can be summed up in terms of good governance and harmonious people.

In fact, Yang Fan and his party arrived in Myanmar safely by boat 12 days ago.

The soldiers of the expeditionary army who arrived together were given a one-month long vacation by Yang Fan, so that they could comfortably vacation with peace of mind and enjoy the hard-won happy life and glorious time.

However, Yang Fan himself can’t be free. He has been busy all day these days, traveling around Myanmar to inspect work, meet with various responsible persons, accept interviews from various newspapers and media, hold celebrations and commendations, and pay homage to fallen soldiers, etc. etc.

At the same time, there are also three honorary expeditionary divisions affiliated to the Nationalist Government. Not long after they arrived in Myanmar, they were transferred back to the country by the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, and placed under the jurisdiction of the Third War Zone, which was fighting fiercely with the devils. .

After working for more than ten days, Yang Fan finally got acquainted with and straightened out Myanmar's military and political affairs. Today, he held a meeting of senior generals, mainly to arrange and arrange the next military work.

After a pleasant opening speech, Yang Fan said to the audience: "This time the Allied forces have severely damaged the Axis African Army on the African battlefield, turning the tide of the North African war in one fell swoop.

This is a major victory for the World Anti-Fascist Alliance, and it is also another brilliant victory for our Chinese Expeditionary Force!

And the soldiers who stayed in Myanmar also did a very good job. Not only did they block the multiple attacks of the Japanese troops sent to Myanmar, but they also further strengthened themselves. We already have millions of tigers and lions in Myanmar alone! "

Speaking of this, Yang Fan paused and said: "But what I want to say next is that the situation of the War of Resistance is still very severe, and the enemy we are facing is stronger than before.

Today, there are more than 270 million Japanese invaders in China alone. If you add the puppet and Manchukuo troops who defected to the enemy, treasoned the country, and worked as minions, the total number of enemy troops is at least 500 million.

And this has not counted the millions of Japanese troops in Japan and other overseas colonies, so we still have a long way to go, far from the time when we can sit back and relax. "

"Everyone knows that the Japanese army is now launching large-scale military aggression in Hubei, Jiangxi, Hunan, Zhejiang and other places, and these brutal invaders are still burning, killing, raping and looting in our country, committing all kinds of crimes!

Our next task is to completely wipe out all these damn invaders, send them all out of their hometowns, avenge the brothers who died heroically, and save the Chinese people from the suffering of war as soon as possible..."

When Yang Fan's voice fell, Yang Chengliang, who had already been full of enthusiasm, said loudly: "Boss, we can fight as you say. Brothers have long been waiting for the day when we have to settle with the devil!"

"Yes, Chief, just give the order, we promise we won't embarrass you!"

"Boss, when shall we call back to China?"

"Boss, my hometown is Jilin in the Northeast. When our Huben Army regains the three provinces in the East in the future, please let me take the lead!"

"Boss, my hometown is from Hebei, haven't we already reached the territory of Hebei, hehe..."

"Can you stop making trouble, the Anti-Japanese War is not about avenging a family, but the common hatred of our Chinese nation! How can we tell where your home is and where my home is?"

"Yeah, yeah! We can't be too narrow, we have to obey the chief's arrangement, we can fight wherever he tells us to fight!"

Immediately afterwards, the meeting room exploded, and the generals volunteered one after another, wishing they could lead troops to the expedition immediately, and clean up the Japanese devils.

"good very good!"

Yang Fan nodded at everyone, and continued, "The morale of the army is very important in war, and strategy is also very important. As I have always emphasized, the best victory is to destroy the enemy while preserving yourself as much as possible.

It is a loss-making business that kills one thousand and loses eight hundred. We can try not to do it if we can! "

Speaking of this, Yang Fan asked a question: "Now the Japanese army has gathered more than 200 million heavy troops around Shandong, and equipped with a large number of aircraft, tanks, artillery and other technical equipment.

But Neiji Okamura chose not to launch a general attack on us, but to attack the national army and other anti-Japanese armed forces first. Have you ever thought about the reason for this? "

"this?"

"I think the little devil is afraid of our tiger army?"

"I think so too. If they can't beat us, they just want to pick a soft persimmon!"

"Well, the little devils are a group of bullying masters!"

After pondering for a while, everyone thought of this in unison.

Yang Fan nodded and said: "This is the main reason. The devil has suffered many times in our hands, knowing that we will pay an unbearable heavy price for a hard attack, so the devil wants to switch from offense to defense, wait for us to gnaw hard bones, and then use up the defense through defensive battles." we!

In this case, what do you say we should do? "

Yang Chengliang scratched his head and said, "Boss, then we can't stop beating devils just because we're afraid of many deaths, right?"

"Yeah, if the devils can't hold on all the time, then we can't keep wasting with them, can we?"

"But having said that, the devils not only assembled heavy troops around Shandong, but also built an extremely solid defense system, which is indeed a bit difficult!"

"And the devils are entrenched in our country's cities and towns. If there is indiscriminate bombing and shelling, I don't know how many Chinese people will die! Throw a mouse!"

"If it is said according to that, don't we have to wait until the year of the monkey? How can this work!"

The rest of the people all turned their attention to Yang Fan. They really didn't know what kind of medicine Yang Fan was selling in the gourd, and they all had this question in their hearts.

Chapter 1457 It's time to delegate power

"Of course we can't just sit and wait for the devils to attack us, and it's even more impossible for us to stay with the devils just because we're afraid of sacrifice and harming innocent people!"

After everyone gradually calmed down, Yang Fan said decisively, "So I'm going to start from two aspects.

One is to mobilize the army from Burma into Guangxi, and use Guangxi as the fulcrum to launch an attack on the Japanese army in Guangdong, thereby disrupting the Japanese army's defensive deployment.

The second is to prepare to launch a large-scale air strike on Tokyo, Japan, which will anger the Japanese base camp and force Neiji Okamura to abandon the existing strategy and take the initiative to attack us! "

The P-47N Thunder fighter production line and the P-61C "Black Widow" night fighter production line have been completed and put into production at the end of April and May respectively.

The Chinese Huben Army now has a super-long combat radius. Although the P-61C "Black Widow" night fighter has a maximum range of 2780 kilometers, it is a bit reluctant to go back and forth to Tokyo, Japan.

But it doesn't matter, Yang Fan can add an auxiliary fuel tank to it to extend the flight distance, so that it can act as a night fighter instead of a night bomber.

As for the long-range bomber, Yang Fan is going to be handed over to the B-29 bomber, and the P-61C "Black Widow" will serve as its escort fighter.

B-29轰炸机为平直翼四发气动布局，由美国波音公司于1940年开始研制，1942年9月21日首飞。

It was the main bomber of the U.S. Army Air Forces in the Asian battlefield of World War II, and it was also the largest aircraft in the air forces of various countries at that time.

The aircraft is mainly used to perform strategic bombing and long-range bombing missions, and can also be used as an anti-submarine, reconnaissance and air refueling aircraft. It used advanced technologies at the time, such as cockpit pressurization, front three-point landing gear, high wing load and remote-controlled machine gun turret. Wait, known as "Super Sky Fortress"? .

The main parameters are: 11 crew members, 30.18 meters in length, 43.05 meters in wingspan, 8.46 meters in height, and a maximum flight speed of 574 km/h.

The practical ceiling is 10241 meters, the combat radius is 2574~2896 kilometers, the maximum transition range is 9010 kilometers, the short-range low-altitude maximum ammunition load is 9072 kilograms of bombs, and the weapon system is equipped with 12 12.7mm machine guns.

B-29轰炸机的生产线虽然还没有解锁，但系统商场却已经可以购买了，只不过售价着实有点昂贵，高达整整2000万财富点，相当于20架马丁B-26“劫掠者”轰炸机、16架P-47N雷电战斗机、15架P-6C黑寡妇。

But for Yang Fan, this price is acceptable, after all, Yang's monthly fixed income from Taobao Manor is nearly 6 million wealth points!

Not to mention buying too much to pretend to be aggressive, it is still no problem to buy three or five planes to play with.

So as early as a month ago, Yang Fan had already spent 5 million wealth points to acquire a total of five B-29 bombers and handed them over to the Shandong Air Force Headquarters for adaptive training, allowing them to prepare for long-range strategic bombing in advance.

Now is the time to take it out and stimulate the Japanese devils!

原本第一次轰炸日本东京的历史壮举，是在1942年4月2日从美国“大黄蜂号”航空母舰起飞的16架B-25轰炸机完成的。

However, due to the butterfly effect, the U.S. Pacific Fleet has only just recovered so far. Even the Hawaiian Islands have not yet been regained. Naturally, there is no way to climb the long-distance transport bomber to the vicinity of the Japanese mainland before bombing.

Of course, bombing Tokyo, Japan is only one of the targets of the strategic bombing. Next, Yang Fan will further increase the targets of night bombing, which are the industrial bases of the Japanese army in Northeast China and some industrial cities in Japan.

It is absolutely impossible for Yang Fan to appease the traitor and let the little devil grow comfortably.

"Of course, this is only my preliminary idea, and it will have to be revised according to the actual progress in the future!"

Yang Fan recounted the plan that had been formulated long ago in public, and finally emphasized, "It doesn't matter whether Neiji Okamura will be affected in the end, or whether he will take the initiative to attack us instead!

After these two moves, we will turn to counterattack in an all-round way, and we must not wait forever because of other factors, so please rest assured and be mentally prepared for a tough battle at any time! "
