Only Xinjiang is more difficult.

In terms of logistics in Xinjiang, China is simply inferior to the Soviet Union.Therefore, Xinjiang has deployed the most troops and quite a lot of aircraft.As far as the air force is concerned, this place is very unusual.

At present, the commander-in-chief of the Air Force of the Xinjiang Military Region is Li Ruyan, who was the most important instructor when the Nanyuan Aviation School was established.As the first aviation school in China, Nanyuan Aviation School has a very special status in the Chinese Air Force.Starting from the principal of Nanyuan Aviation School, there are actually only more than 100 graduates.After Qin Guoyong defected to Duan Xun, Nanyuan Aviation School closed down.But these more than 100 people have become a very important part of the Chinese Air Force.

The Air Force Commander of the Northern Military Region is a graduate of the second batch of Nanyuan Aviation School, and the Air Force Commander of the Xinjiang Military Region is an instructor of the Nanyuan Aviation School.

"Convey this message to our air defense forces immediately and get them all ready."

"Yes."

China has obtained a lot of information from the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union had tens of thousands of aircraft, tens of thousands of tanks, and tens of thousands of cannons. Of course, China must be prepared for equipment of this scale.Especially to deal with the Soviet Air Force, China has built a large number of anti-aircraft artillery units.

Important bases in Xinjiang are protected by anti-aircraft artillery units.

"Zhanhou, where do you think the Soviet army will attack in the first step?"

"Tacheng and Altay."

Ge Jingen pointed to the map and said: "Tacheng is the only way to Karamay, and Karamay is the most important oil base in northwest my country. Capturing Tacheng can directly threaten Karamay."

Karamay Oilfield is currently one of the three major oilfields in China.

Karamay Oilfield currently produces more than 400 million tons of crude oil per year, and Karamay is an emerging industrial city in Xinjiang with a very complete oil industry and a very strong refining capacity.Moreover, the Karamay area is also very rich in natural gas, so it is also a very important natural gas base in China.

If it is lost here, the loss to China will be relatively large.

"Karamay is not just a petrochemical base. Once Karamay is lost, the Soviet army will have a way to cut off our connection with Ili. Their troops can even besiege Ili in a detour."

"As for the Altay region, go directly south. From here, you can encircle Karamay, and you can also go straight to Dihua (Urumqi). And you can also cooperate with the Novosibirsk troops to take the northwestern region of Outer Mongolia, and threaten Tangnu Wulianghai."

Ge Jingen expressed his thoughts.

"This area is no man's land, and the Soviet Union will give them what they want. The logistics in this area are too difficult, and our troops are not good at fighting here. Even if the Soviet army really occupies this area, it will be difficult to supply logistics. If you want to This place is used as a springboard, and it is very difficult to attack other places. If the Soviet army really wants this place, it will be equivalent to adding targets to our air force. But I think as long as the Soviet army is not a fool, it will definitely not choose random division of troops. "

Liu Xiang drew a circle in the Altay region and the western part of Outer Mongolia, speaking very coldly.

The site is huge.

The Altay region, the western region of Mongolia, and the provinces in the east together are simply incomparable in size.But the land here is also very large, but most of them are uninhabited no-man's land.These are the places no one talks about.

The Altay region is larger than Zhejiang, but its population is only about 10.The infrastructure of such a place is seriously inadequate, and the logistics are very difficult.The railways and highways in Xinjiang are all around some important places, not the deserted places like Altay.

"Looks like it's mainly Tacheng."

"Yes."

Ge Jingen is the chief of staff of the Xinjiang Military Region. His daily work is to analyze and sort out the situation of the Soviet army, and he will give Liu Xiang the advice of the staff department.Let Liu Xiang, the commander-in-chief, make a decision.

"We analyzed that the first step of the Soviet army must be to capture Tacheng with a large force to threaten Karamay. The second step should be to attack Kashgar and Yining."

"Ah."

Liu Xiang agreed with Ge Jingen's judgment.

Kashgar is the most important place on the Xinjiang-Tibet Highway. Taking Kashgar will directly interrupt the Xinjiang-Tibet Highway and the connection between Xinjiang and Tibet.As for Yining being the center of Yili, the headquarters of the Xinjiang Construction Corps is in Yining.

This area is one of the grain producing areas in Xinjiang.

If the Soviet Union really wins Karamay, Yili, and Kashgar, even if it doesn't win Dihua (Urumqi), it will take the absolute initiative in the war in Xinjiang.

"Let's take a look first."

Although it attaches great importance to the intelligence of the Soviet army, after all, China is fighting the Soviet army for the first time.Liu Xiang didn't know how the Soviet army played.Therefore, he said: "I hope that Deputy Commander Tang (Tang Shengzhi) can stop the Soviet army."

"Baiyun, Baiyun, I am a sparrow, I am a sparrow. A large-scale Soviet fleet was found 80 kilometers northwest of Tacheng. Our reconnaissance plane estimates that the Soviet fleet has 6 bomber brigades, about 90 The bombers. 2 fighter brigades, about 30 fighters. The bombers are Soviet SB-3 bombers, and the fighters are Il-15 and Il-16 fighters.”

"received."

The role of the radar station is to detect enemy aircraft.

However, the specific composition of the enemy aircraft still requires the dispatch of reconnaissance aircraft.In fact, with the radar, combat efficiency has been greatly improved.Because the Soviet army had just taken off from the airport, the radar station on the Chinese side had already discovered this situation, and the Chinese planes had already begun preparations.Then, according to the report from the radar station, a reconnaissance plane was dispatched for reconnaissance.

What is the most powerful reconnaissance aircraft?

That is speed.

While dispatching reconnaissance planes, fighter jets began to take off.The reconnaissance plane went to investigate and then sent back the reconnaissance report.Then there's the fighter jets.

If there was no radar station to find out in advance, the Chinese Air Force's actions would not be so fast.In fact, the Chinese air force reacted a little slower, and the result would be the same as the air strike in the northern military region. A large number of planes were unable to take off and were directly destroyed at the airport.It takes time for a plane to take off, and it doesn't mean that it can take off casually.

It takes more than half an hour for a fleet of planes to take off.If it's a bit slower, it might even be an hour.War is actually a competition for time to see who can prepare faster.

Therefore, the early discovery of the radar station is to give the Chinese Air Force time to prepare.

"Tacheng, Tacheng, I am Baiyun."

"Tacheng received."

“距离塔城西北方向发现苏军约120架飞机，其中有90架左右的SB-3型轰炸机，30架左右的伊尔-15战斗机和伊尔-16战斗机。白云请求全队出击拦截，白云请求全队出击拦截。”

The establishment of the Soviet Air Force is different from that of the Chinese Air Force.

苏联空军的编制是航空师下辖3-5个航空团，每个航空团下辖3-5个航空大队。每个航空大队下辖12架到15架左右的飞机。而中国空军不一样。

The Chinese Air Force has three aviation regiments under the Air Force Division, or three aviation brigades under its jurisdiction.The Flying Regiment and the Flying Brigade are of the same organization and have the same level.Therefore, the number of aircraft in each flight group in China is around 30 to 40.Some special aircraft brigades even have fleets of 50 to 60 aircraft.

Bai Yun is Gao Zhihang, captain of the Fifth Battalion of the First Division of the Air Force of the Xinjiang Military Region.

This is a fighter brigade equipped with "J-3" fighter jets.This is the code name of the Chinese Air Force. In fact, it is a product of Seversky Aircraft Company.After Duan Xun made his decision, Seversky Aircraft Company received financial support from the military, the Ministry of Commerce, local governments, and financial institutions, and quickly became another top aircraft company in China.

Duan Xun keeps his promise.

Although a large amount of money has flowed into Seversky Aircraft Company and owns a lot of shares, the government does not interfere with the company's decision-making.Seversky Aircraft Company is powerful and large, but it is not affiliated with any government department.It is not affiliated with the military, nor the Ministry of Commerce, nor the Ministry of Industry. It is a Sino-foreign joint venture company with foreigners in management.

In addition to this cooperation, Seversky Aircraft Company has reached a cooperation agreement with Xi'an Aircraft Factory in China, and Seversky Aircraft Company has licensed some of their products to Xi'an Aircraft Factory.They are allowed to produce, and they are also allowed to develop new models.

Moreover, Seversky Aircraft Company began to receive a large number of military orders.

The Air Force hopes that Seversky Aircraft Company will improve the "SEV-2" fighter they produce.With sufficient funds, Seversky Aircraft Company developed the "SEV-2" and "SEV-3" models on the basis of their original "SEV-4" fighter jets.In fact, the "SEV-2" aircraft is the American P-35 fighter jet in history, but because of its many shortcomings, the military hopes that it can be changed.

The fighter jets developed by Seversky Aircraft Company on the basis of "SEV-2" have always had good performance.The "SEV-1938" fighter developed until the beginning of 5 was highly praised by the military, and the military began to place a large number of orders.If you are looking for a similar fighter, it should be the "P-47" fighter used by the US Air Force in history.

China's current fighter jets are mainly three types.

One was imitated by the Wuchang Aircraft Factory based on the early French aircraft, that is, the D-27 fighter jet.Later, the odd-numbered aircraft in the "War" series produced by Wuchang Aircraft Manufacturing Plant were all improved versions of this D-27.At present, among the fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force, the fighter model of the "War" series has been developed to "5".Of course, the main force of this batch of fighter jets is still "Zhan-3".
