    "Moxi Moxi, I am Yamada!"

    ¡°#£¤%¡­¡­&*£¨£©£¨£©*&¡­¡­%*¡±

    After a burst of jabbering Japanese on the other end of the phone, General Yamada slapped his desk and shouted: "Baga, fight back immediately, fight back immediately, and we must not let that person and the Americans succeed!"

    After hanging up the phone, Yamada Otsuzo gritted his teeth and said: "Urgent call from Anshan, the Chinese Air Force once again attacked Anshan Steel Works. There were more than 80 fighter planes attacking this time, all of which were the latest B-29 bombers of the US military.  .¡±

    "It seems that we can only let the 15th Air Wing deal with the situation in Anshan first. I hope Okazaki-kun can hold on!"

    "Well, that's all we can do for now. Let the front-line troops in Shanhaiguan assemble first. We must ensure the safety of Xinjing!"

    "Hai!"

    Looking at Kasahara Yukio¡¯s leaving figure, Yamada Otozo felt as if something was blocked in his heart, he couldn¡¯t get up or get down, it was extremely uncomfortable.

    Think about the Kwantung Army a few years ago. It was the force that all the empire's generals rushed to join, especially the commander, who could only be held by the empire's top soldiers. However, looking at it now, it has completely lost its previous glory.

    Not only do we have to deal with the pressure from the Soviet Union, we also have to deal with the counterattack of the Chinese army. Now we also have to face the all-out bombing by the powerful aviation forces of the United States.

    According to the top-secret information collected by the intelligence agency, the powerful aviation force that had been bombing Manchuria and the mainland of the empire during this period was the Allied 20th Air Force. The air force was established in April 1944 and was organized by American General Arnold.  and served as its first commander.

    The main purpose of forming the 20th Air Force was to conduct offensive strategic bombing of the Japanese mainland. This was one of the most important events in the history of the U.S. Air Force, and it was also a very meaningful thing for Japan, because from this aviation force  From the moment it was formed, Japan's mainland and Northeast China, North Korea and other places controlled by them were no longer safe.

    In order to thoroughly understand the detailed information of this aviation force, the Japanese army sent a large number of spies to infiltrate the Chinese intelligence department.

    In the end, the hard work paid off, and after paying a huge price, they finally found the route of the US military fighter planes and their combat missions in China.

    It has been determined that the US military's B-29 Flying Fortress fleet has three main strategic bombing targets on the Chinese battlefield and one reserve target.  The criteria for determining these targets were mainly the Japanese military's industrial resources and important transportation hubs.

    These three targets are Anshan Showa Steel Works, Kailuan Coal Mine, Qinhuangdao Wharf and Dagu Seaport, all of which are Japan¡¯s most important military bases in China.

    Needless to say, Anshan Steel Works was the second largest steel factory in Japan at the time. It provided 1.25 million tons of steel needed for industry and military industry to Northeast China, North Korea, and Japan every year. The factory's annual coke output reached  3,793,000 tons, accounting for one-third of Japan's annual coke production.

    The Kailuan Coal Mine and Qinhuangdao Terminal are also the main producing areas and export ports for Japanese coking coal, which are of great significance to the industrial development of Japan.

    As for Dagu Seaport, it was the main port for shipping Datong, Yangquan, Jingxing coal mines, North China ore and Taiyuan, Longyan and other steel products to Japan at that time. The mineral resources and other materials plundered by the Japanese army from North China provinces needed to be transferred back to Japan from here.  Native.

    In addition, one of the preliminary targets is the Tianjin Railway Shunting Yard, which is the main transportation hub for the Japanese army in North China and Northeast China.

    Although they knew the flight route of the US military fleet and the target of the opponent's bombing, the Kwantung Army had nothing to do about it and could only watch the opponent come to bomb.

    In less than a month, U.S. fighter planes have carried out large-scale bombings on several strategic targets mentioned above.

    Especially a week ago, news came again from the intelligence agency that Major General LeMay, commander of the US 8th Air Force, who was famous for bombing Germany on the European battlefield, replaced General Wolf as commander of the 20th Air Force.

    Immediately afterwards, Major General Li Mei began his performance. On the second day after he took office, he ordered 115 B-29s to be transferred from Kharagpur Airport, about 110 kilometers west of Kolkata, India, to airports in Chengdu, Sichuan.

    108 aircraft took off that day, of which 95 were led by Li Mei and arrived in Anshan. 90 dropped 207 tons of explosive bombs on Anshan Steel Works, another 5 bombed the Shenyang Railway Shunting Yard, and the other B-29s bombed Dalian and Benxi.

    The bombing caused a loss of 32.5% of the coke ovens of Anshan Steel Works. As a result, Japan's steel production was reduced by approximately 9.3% each year.

    threeA few days ago, the US military once again assembled 117 B-29 bombers and 1 reconnaissance aircraft in the Chengdu area. 109 took off, 88 of which directly bombed Anshan, and the others bombed Dalian, Shenyang and other places respectively. This time the bombing of the B-29 bombers  29 only lost 1 aircraft.

    Originally, the weather had been bad for the past two days, with dark clouds. Under such circumstances, it was not suitable for fighter planes to dispatch. Therefore, the Kwantung Army Headquarters thought it could take a breather, but it did not expect that the weather improved slightly, and the U.S. military fighter planes came again.  .

    As a last resort, they could only temporarily give up rescuing Lieutenant General Okazaki's headquarters and fully respond to the US aviation force.

    However, what General Yamada Yisan did not expect was that at the same time that 80 fighter planes attacked Anshan, more than 70 more fighter planes appeared in Fengtian.

    Listening to the constant sound of aircraft engines overhead and the shrill air defense sirens in the city, General Yamada Otozo was about to burst with anger.

    What was even more unacceptable to him was that after the two-hour bombing, the losses reported below were beyond his imagination. Not only was Fengtian's aviation factory destroyed by the bombing, but even the arsenal in East Tower was destroyed.  Got bombed.

    The "Manchurian Aircraft" factory does not belong to aviation industry companies such as Nakajima, Mitsubishi, and Kawasaki. It is a factory of the Japanese Army Aviation Technology Research Institute. It was moved from Tokyo to the area near the "Fengtian Arsenal" in the East Tower of Fengtian three years ago.

    This flight factory started by assembling the "Type 97" fighter jets, and later produced the fuselage of the "Type 97" fighter jets, and designed and produced the "Type 2" advanced combat trainer aircraft.

    The Japanese army built an aircraft factory in Northeast China mainly to consider the layout of weapons production and adapt to the needs of the troops on the spot. However, they did not expect that they would be frantically bombed by the U.S. Air Force.

    ¡°It¡¯s really a leaky house and continuous rain. Any bad thing can happen to them.

    However, while the U.S. Air Force carried out large-scale bombings on Anshan and Fengtian, the main force of the Ninth Army also completed the mission of annihilating the Japanese 108th Division.

    With the help of the American Air Force, the Chinese army on the southern battlefield seemed to be on the hook. It took less than five hours to eliminate all the little Japanese in the encirclement. In addition, they also made an emergency landing of two puppets.  Army infantry brigade.

    The first to be eliminated was the Japanese army at Mushubei Ridge. Due to the limited strength of the Japanese army here, less than 7,000, and the fact that their troops were the first to be attacked, the battle lasted until about four o'clock in the afternoon.  The Japanese army was beaten to a pulp.

    Finally, under a charge from Wang Lijuan's troops, the remaining more than a thousand Japanese troops were defeated.

    Immediately afterwards, Wang Lijuan led the main force back to support Shili Beiling. At this time, there were less than 4,000 Japanese troops left in the ambush circle, and the rest were all annihilated.

    At this time, the Japanese troops in the encirclement had lost their fighting spirit. Originally, the 108th Division was a newly formed infantry division. It had 12,000 new soldiers out of the more than 15,000 people under its command. The combat effectiveness of such a unit was not as good as before.  A mixed brigade.

    After the main force was completely wiped out, the remaining ones naturally didn¡¯t have much fighting spirit.

    Originally, they hoped that the aviation force would come to rescue them, but they were told that the aviation force was not available and asked them to wait.

    What made Lieutenant General Okazaki even more desperate was that the two infantry brigades of the Royal Association Army lost contact at this time, which was unusual.

    You must know that the communication between them is usually very smooth, and they can even be contacted after the headquarters is surrounded. But when they ordered the Imperial Army to reinforce immediately, the other party lost information.

    Based on Lieutenant General Okazaki¡¯s understanding of the Imperial Alliance Army, there are two possibilities for not maintaining such a situation. The first is that the Imperial Alliance Army was completely wiped out, and the second is that the Imperial Alliance Army rebelled.

    The possibility of being completely annihilated is unlikely. The main reason is that they did not hear the sound of fighting behind them, so in the end the only possibility left was rebellion.

    As for whether the Royal Association Army will escape, Lieutenant General Okazaki thinks it is unlikely. The reason is that there are many advisers in the two Imperial Association Army infantry brigades. If the Royal Association Army wants to escape, the Naxi adviser will definitely also  Wouldn't agree.

    Therefore, after seeing the national army¡¯s reinforcements arriving on the battlefield, the desperate Lieutenant General Okazaki knew that he was finished.

    In the end, in order to protect the thousands of seventeen-year-old child soldiers in the encirclement, Lieutenant General Okazaki ordered people to hang a white flag and surrender to Lu Zhanwu's troops.
