In the blink of an eye, three months passed.
Time has come to April 4th, the 29th year of the Republic of China (1940), the Qingming Festival.
Early in the morning, Yu Liangzhen and Zhong Yi took a group of senior staff officers from the Chief's Department to the Martyrs Cemetery in Lanxi with water, wine and food to pay homage to the fallen soldiers.
This martyrs¡¯ cemetery is built in a mountain col not far from the chief¡¯s headquarters.
Tens of thousands of soldiers who died in the two Zhejiang-Fujian battles are buried in the cemetery.
Entering the mountain col is an arch. Pass through the arch and move forward along the mountain col. The slopes on both sides are densely packed with tombstones. Many of the tombstones don¡¯t even have names on them. There is no choice but to engrave anonymous names.
In this era, there are too many nameless martyrs.
After the worship was over, Zhong Yi and Yu Liangzhen were not in a hurry to return to the chief's department.
I don¡¯t know when it started to drizzle again. Zhang Shiliang and Yu Liangzhen¡¯s adjutants quickly opened their umbrellas to protect Zhong Yi and Yu Liangzhen from the rain.
Although the rain during Qingming Festival is not very heavy, it is bitingly cold.
Looking at the vast raindrops falling in the mountain col, Yu Liangzhen sighed and said: "Unconsciously, this war has reached the Qingming Festival of its fourth year. I really don't know how I survived these four years."
Zhong Yi sighed: "Just like what Liang Gong said, just endure it. What else can you do besides enduring it?"
Yu Liangzhen said: "The problem is, I still don't know how long it will take and when it will be full."
"Yeah, when will it be the end?" Qian Xiaojun, standing behind the two of them, also said with emotion, "The situation is getting more and more difficult. We really can't stand it any longer. Let's talk about this third Zhejiang-Fujian battle. , the little devil did not say fight, nor did he say not to fight, but Chen Bing was on the front line from Shaoxing, Zhuji to Shangyu, making it difficult for us to get up or down. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers could only soak in the rain, which was very hard. If this continues, I'm worried something will go wrong."
Zhong Yi¡¯s worries unfortunately became a reality.
After the 1st Division, 8th Division and other four divisions were in place, Okamura Neiji, an old devil, was not in a hurry to launch the third Zhejiang-Fujian Battle. Instead, he formed troops outside the actual control line to maintain military pressure. As a result, more than 600,000 people from the eight armies in the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone were on alert, and they were on tenterhooks every day.
After entering the rainy season of spring, the soldiers will work even harder.
Zhong Yi originally expected that this rainy season would cause harm to the Japanese. As a result, the Japanese hid in Hangzhou, Shaoxing, Zhuji and other cities and strongholds unscathed, but the national army suffered a lot.
Fortunately, enough penicillin has been stored, and the reduction in staff will not be much.
Faced with this situation, Zhong Yi couldn't think of any way.
Counterattack? Counterattack is impossible. Offensive warfare is different from defensive warfare and relies heavily on heavy weapons!
However, the heavy weapons in the Zhejiang and Fujian war zones are limited, and the only dozen usable heavy artillery were captured on the battlefield. Zhong Yi does not think that with these dozen heavy artillery, he can launch a counterattack against the Japanese.
After all, the Japanese Air Force now has an overwhelming advantage.
Today it is raining and the clouds are thick, so there is no air combat.
But before today, in the past three months, the air battles between the 1st Aviation Division and the Japanese Air Force had not stopped, and air battles of various sizes were staged every day.
The 500 P-40 fighter jets Zhong Yi ordered from Curtiss have all been shipped, and even the 100 P-40 fighter jets he ordered later have also arrived, but this is still not enough to make up for the air power gap between the Chinese and Japanese militaries. There is a huge gap because during the same period, the strength of the Japanese Air Force in the Zhejiang and Fujian battlefields has increased to eight aviation divisions.
There are eight aviation divisions with more than 5,000 fighter aircraft of various types in total, including more than 3,000 fighter jets alone, including more than 500 Zero fighter jets.
The newly installed Zero fighter jets of the Air Force caused the 1st Aviation Division to suffer a lot.
Today, of the 600 P-40 fighter jets of the 1st Aviation Division that have been in place, less than 100 are left. Of the more than 500 P-40 fighter jets that were shot down, half were shot down by Zero fighter jets.
Before this, Zhong Yi had only heard about the power of the Zero fighter in history books. Now, he has a personal experience of the power of the Zero fighter! I have to admit that, apart from being a little thinner, the performance of Xiaojiizi's fighter in all aspects is really impeccable. It can definitely be called an excellent fighter.
"At least until the P-51 Mustang fighter comes out, the Zero fighter is invincible.
Of course, the 1st Aviation Division has not gained anything. The biggest gain is that it has taken this opportunity to train a large number of pilots, and the number of this large group is??Five thousand people!
Zhong Yi didn¡¯t make any discounts. He said it was five thousand pilots, so it was five thousand!
So far, including the students who studied and practiced in the third phase, more than 5,000 students who have graduated from Kunming Aviation School in three phases have all been in the sky and have experience in air combat! Many students even have records of shooting down enemy planes!
After all, in these more than three months of fighting, the 1st Aviation Division lost more than 500 fighter jets, but the losses of the Japanese Air Force were also great. At the beginning, the losses of the Japanese Air Force were actually greater than those of the 1st Aviation Division. It was not until the Zero fighters were equipped with the troops that the losses of the Japanese Air Force began to slowly decrease.
But even so, the Japanese Air Force has lost more than a thousand aircraft in total.
This also means that the 1st Aviation Division has more than a thousand shooting down records. Even if some students have two or more shooting down records, even if it is less, at least more than 500 pilots have already had it. Shot down record.
And this is the biggest gain from this more than three-month air battle on the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield.
But in general, the national army on the Zhejiang and Fujian battlefields is still at an absolute disadvantage and has a difficult life.
¡°And Zhong Yi knows that the next two years will be the most difficult two years. It is only April of 1940, and there is still a year and a half before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. This year and a half is the most difficult.
At that moment, Zhong Yi said: "Good Lord, old sir, the next two years will be the most difficult. We must be mentally prepared, even"
Qian Xiaojun said: "What does it include?"
Zhong Yi said: "Including the fall of Yinjiang, it is not impossible."
"What? Yinjiang fell?" Qian Xiaojun asked, "Is it that serious?"
"I'm just saying it's possible." Zhong Yi sighed, "Everything must be forewarned, otherwise it will be ruined. If we don't prepare ourselves mentally in advance, we will be caught off guard once Yinjiang is really lost."
Yu Liangzhen said: "Zi Ren, you mean to move the factory in Yinjiang in advance?"
"Yes." Zhong Yi said, "Now it's almost time to move some factories. We can't control American factories, but the Chinese factories can be moved to Yunnan in advance." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel. com
