    :.

    When the shrill air-raid siren sounded, all the passers-by and vehicles that were walking on the street stopped, and then stared blankly at the source of the siren high in the sky, wondering what happened.

    We can¡¯t blame them. In fact, after the war broke out, evacuation training and so on were carried out across the country. However, after all, China has not had a large-scale war for more than 20 years, especially in cities like Beijing.  In this way, peace has been around for a long time, and the reaction from some aspects has naturally become much slower.

    On the other hand, the Air Defense Command, which has also been at peace for a long time, has also fallen into chaos.

    ¡°Damn it, how did these things come out!!!¡±

    Looking at the bright spots displayed on the radar monitor and the information coming back from observation stations in various places, Lei Yiming broke out in sweat.

    As the commander of the Air Defense Command, Lei Yiming is like this, not to mention other people in the department.  But it¡¯s no wonder. Although it is the Air Defense Command, there has never been a war near Beijing since the establishment of the National Socialist Government. The Air Defense Command, which is mainly responsible for the security of Beijing¡¯s airspace, has been idle for more than 20 years. It is not as good as  The border sub-bureaus have the ability to adapt to emergencies. Now that they have encountered such a situation, they are all suddenly confused

    "Minister, the enemy plane has less than six minutes left from Beijing!!!"

    Just when Lei Yiming was so anxious and sweating all over his head, an officer on the side hung up the phone and shouted to him.

    Hearing what his subordinates said, Lei Yiming turned around twice.

    "How's it going with the air defense force?"

    ¡°We have entered a state of combat readiness!!!¡±

    "What about the Air Force? Can the Air Force fight?"

    If the Air Force fighter planes in the base near Beijing can take off to meet the enemy.  Naturally, Beijing can be prevented from being attacked by airstrikes, and Lei Yiming's responsibility will be minimized.  But if the Japanese planes are really allowed to fly over Beijing and drop a lot of bombs on the way, then as the commander of the Air Defense Command.  Lei Yi is clearly responsible.

    Therefore, Lei Yiming now places almost all his hopes on the Air Force, otherwise the responsibility will be all his.

    However, Lei Yiming was disappointed by his subordinate's words.

    "The Air Force is already doing this, but I'm afraid it's too late!"

    Unlike the Air Defense Command, which has been at peace for a long time, the training of the troops stationed near Beijing is maintained at a high intensity, and these troops are even brought to the border in peacetime to accumulate practical experience.  Therefore, the troops stationed in Beijing have always been known as elite, especially the air force.

    Since the air force is not as sensitive as the army in this era, conflicts between the air force fighters of the two countries are common in some countries with relatively tense relations.  Especially on the border between China and Russia, this kind of thing happens all the time. Therefore, the air force pilots near Beijing have considerable practical experience

    It¡¯s just¡­

    After all, actual combat experience cannot play a role in reversing time and space. What's more, even if the pilot has actual combat experience, it does not mean that the ground crew has it.

    And the Air Force¡¯s fighter planes are designed to facilitate daily maintenance.  They are usually stored in the hangar. As for fuel and ammunition, they are only added during combat to avoid accidents.

    In this way, I want to complete all preparations and take off to meet the enemy within 6 minutes.  Naturally, it becomes a fantasy

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    While Lei Yiming was sweating anxiously, Yan Guang was already being carried into the nearest underground shelter by his bodyguards.

    Let¡¯s not mention whether Yan Guang is reliable or not.  As the supreme leader of China, his security measures are naturally the most stringent.

    So.  The security measures of the entire presidential palace are also one of the most stringent in China, no, in the world, second only to some more confidential places.

    For example, on the grassland around the Presidential Palace, although it seems to be just ordinary grassland, under the grassland, there are dozens of 30mm six-barreled Gatling cannons, which can be manually fired in an emergency.  method to lift these cannons out of the ground to defend against enemies.

    Of course, the existence of these cannons is an extremely confidential matter, so not many people know about it. In order to avoid being turned around by the enemy to bombard the presidential palace, the firing angle of these cannons is not only fixed, but also only  It can be used externally but not internally.

    But even so, these cannons still possess extremely lethal power.

    On the other hand, at the Presidential Palace?There are also several huge underground shelters, which are specially designed for everyone in the presidential palace to take refuge. At the same time, these shelters are also connected to each other.

    "But, is there really no problem here?"

    After entering the underground shelter, Yan Guang secretly said with some fear.

    Well, after all, the most important thing about being a secret is appearance and the ability to serve others. Naturally, he will not be a very courageous person, or in other words, a courageous person will not come to Yan Guang at all. After all, a courageous person  Women can easily be associated with Wu Zetian or Cixi

    On the other hand, Yan Guang patted her shoulder.

    "Don't worry, there won't be any problem"

    When he said this, Yan Guang's face was full of confidence.

    Although due to the passage of time, Yan Guang today can no longer compare with the person he was when he first traveled to this country, but even so, the confidence on Yan Guang's face still comforted the hearts of dozens of secrets nearby.

    There is certainly a reason for Yan Guang to be so confident. You must know that Yan Guang is from a later generation, but he knows very well how powerful this nuclear weapon is.  So after starting research and manufacturing in Lop Nur, Yan Guang improved the shelter under the Presidential Palace based on the opinions of experts.

    The shelter is a hundred meters deep and made of reinforced concrete. On the top of the shelter, there are more than ten layers of protection composed of armor used by battleships. This kind of protection can withstand millions of equivalents even in later generations.  The power of a nuclear bomb in an air burst.  One hundred tons equivalent is just a piece of cake.

    This is why Yan Guang is so confident. After all, this underground shelter was specially built for the underground shelter that will appear in a few years. Today's conventional ammunition cannot pose a threat to it at all.

    What's more, Japan does not have any large bombers at all, and only uses some relatively light bombers.

    Like the Type 98 dive bomber used by the Japanese Army Air Force.  The empty weight is only 1066 kilograms, and the heaviest is only 3760 kilograms. The zd20 currently used by the National Defense Air Force has an empty weight of 3232 kilograms, and the maximum take-off weight has reached 5262 kilograms.

    In addition, the Japanese Army¡¯s Type 99 twin light bomber was a new light bomber developed by Kawasaki Aircraft in 1937 when the Imperial Japanese Army was influenced by the Soviet-made SB2 light bomber that appeared on the Chinese battlefield.  This aircraft is a metal mid-wing aircraft with a rear tricycle landing gear and a thick bomb bay at the front of the fuselage.  The rear part is a smaller tail. The tail vibrated during the test flight of the prototype in 1939, so it was necessary to strengthen the tail structural strength and increase the vertical tail area.

    However, even so, the empty weight of the Type 99 double light bomber is only 4550 kilograms.  The total weight is only 6500 kilograms.

    Compared with the zd20, which exists as a fighter jet, it is not much better.

    The remaining Type 1 land attack aircraft Type 1 and Type 3 are a little better looking, with at least a dead weight of 6741 kilograms and a maximum payload of 12895 kilograms. However, it can only be regarded as a medium bomber among the National Defense Air Force.  And still barely¡­

    In addition, even the Type 97 heavy bomber equipped by the Japanese army, which is what the Japanese call a heavy bomber, has an empty weight of only 6,070 kilograms, and the heaviest is 10,610 kilograms.

    In history, Type 97 equipment was soon used in the Sino-Japanese War.  It bombed Chinese cities indiscriminately, but was also attacked head-on by the Chinese Air Force.  The early version of the Type 97 only had four 7.7 mm caliber ** machine guns. It was unable to withstand attacks from Chinese fighter planes, especially the US-made Browning M2 heavy machine gun.  So an equivalent ho103 heavy machine gun was added to the back of the aircraft. In addition, the bomb bay and flaps were also enlarged. This was called ki21ib. Later, based on actual combat experience, the fuel tank was enlarged and the machine guns were also increased to 6.  This was called the ki21ic. After 1939, the ki21ii with an enlarged vertical tail also began to be produced.

    The Type 97 also came out empty-handed in the Pacific War that began in December 1941. However, after 1943, the Type 97 faced various Allied fighter jets (even the old British Hurricane fighter), and the Type 97 still seemed difficult to withstand.  , although the production of Type 97 continued until 1944, it was called an obsolete model, so production was discontinued in September of that year.

    This is true for the heavy bombers equipped by the Army. Although Japan's fighter jets are still relatively good, such as Type 4, Type 5 and Zero Combat, but the bombers can only be said to be really bad

    On the other hand, as a bomber with poor performance, the Type 1 land attack aircraft can only carry 60 kg bombs 12, 250 kg bombs 4, 500 or 800 kg bombs 1.  The Type 97 heavy bomber is a 1000kg bomb, the Type 99 twin light bomber is 800kg, and the Type 98 dive bomber is only 450kg

    An aerial bomb of this magnitude, not to mention the Yanguang located under a hundred-meter-deep underground bunker, may not be able to penetrate even the ten-meter-thick soil on the surface of the bunker

    "So, don't worry, we are absolutely safe here."?¡¯s¡­¡±

    After persuading the secret in his arms, Yan Guang raised his head and looked at an official from the presidential palace.

    "How is the evacuation situation of the people in the city?"

    Although he was absolutely safe, Yan Guang was very worried about the situation of the people.

    Hearing Yan Guang¡¯s question, the official said calmly.

    "President, please rest assured that evacuation work has begun in the city. In addition, civil air defense projects have been greatly promoted in recent years, so I believe there will be no problems."

    Civil air defense projects, also called civil air defense fortifications, refer to underground protective buildings built separately to ensure the shelter of personnel and materials, civil air defense command, and medical rescue in wartime, as well as basements built in combination with ground buildings that can be used for air defense in wartime.  Civil air defense projects are important facilities to prevent sudden enemy attacks, effectively shelter personnel and materials, and preserve war potential.

    New civil air defense projects have undergone feasibility studies before construction, taking into account the needs of wartime air defense.  It also takes into account the needs of peacetime economic construction, urban construction and people's lives, and has dual functions in peacetime and wartime.

    Generally speaking, subways, underground passages, underground parking lots, etc. are all types of civil air defense projects.

    Although Beijing is an older city, after the National Socialist Government came into power, it  While retaining a large number of buildings with historical value, some old buildings with little value were also bulldozed and new streets, buildings, subways, etc. were built

    Of course, sewers and other things are also among the renovation projects.

    And the newly built sewers have basically reached the level where cars can be driven.

    ?? If nothing else is mentioned, at least sewers can be regarded as advanced even in later generations.

    Of course, the cost of building a sewer of this scale must be quite huge, and the money is still invested in such a place that is basically invisible.  The controversy was naturally quite huge, but these were all passed under Yan Guang's insistence.

    After all, Yan Guang knows very well that it won¡¯t be long before an extremely tragic war breaks out in this world, although according to Yan Guang¡¯s estimation.  It is unlikely that this war will spread to Beijing, but there is no big mistake in being careful. And even if we survive the Second World War, won't there be a Cold War later?

    On the other hand, subway and other projects have also connected the entire Beijing in the past 20 years.

    therefore¡­

    In civil air defense engineering.  Indeed there is no need to worry¡­

    "so¡­"

    Thinking of the money spent over the past twenty years, Yan Guang nodded.

    "In this case, I feel relieved, buthow on earth did the Japanese get to Beijing before they were discovered?"

    When he said this, Yan Guang's face looked somewhat ugly.

    The Japanese actually knocked on my door.  This is a rare shame for Yan Guang.

    Of course, Yan Guang is also very strange.  How did the Japanese come over?

    You should know that if cities in coastal areas such as Northeast China or Shandong were hit by air strikes.  He was not surprised when he arrived. After all, it was not very far from Japan, and it was not easy to defend against.

    But Beijing is different. If you want to enter Beijing, no matter how you go, you need to pass through the defense circle of Dalian or Weihai, and there are a considerable number of high-performance radars in these two places

    In addition, in the Bohai Bay, there are also patrol aircraft of the Air Force specially patrolling.

    Therefore, at least in Yan Guang¡¯s view, it is simply impossible to appear in the airspace around Beijing without warning.

    However, the fact is that they did come, and they came quite suddenly

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    "this¡­"

    Hearing Yan Guang ask this question, the official¡¯s face was also covered in sweat, similar to Lei Yiming of the Air Defense Command.

    ¡°In fact, he is also very surprised now, how did the Japanese do it.

    You must know that Beijing, as the capital of all China, guards the city very tightly. For example, Dalian, Weihai and other cities that defend Beijing have deployed a considerable number of defense facilities. In addition, every day  Various military aircraft on non-stop patrols.

    It was simply impossible for them to appear so suddenly near Tianjin, but now the Japanese have indeed done it. It is like a slap in their face.

    "never mind¡­"

    Seeing the officials unable to say anything in front of him, Yan Guang waved his hand.

    "Go, call the Military Intelligence Bureau and ask them?Why was this matter not noticed in advance? Let them check by the way how the Japanese got around it.  "

    "yes!"

    Of course Yan Guang and others did not know that in order to implement this revenge plan, the Japanese could be said to have spent a lot of money.  Not only was the entire plan kept in a state of extreme secrecy, but a few spies who had been purged by the Military Defense Bureau and had been in the latent stage were deliberately mobilized, so that the Military Intelligence Bureau could not detect the Japanese actions.

    At the same time, it was also through these spies that they learned the patrol times of the patrol aircraft at the Dalian and Weihai bases, and created some time differences through various means, so that the bomber group performing the retaliatory mission could follow this time difference and fly between the patrol aircraft at the two bases.  Fly over.

    As for how they bypassed the radar stations in Dalian and Weihai

    In this era, radar is definitely a well-deserved advanced technology.  But in advanced technology, there will be some problems when it first comes out, and these problems are likely to be quite fatal.

    In later generations, the American F22 "Raptor" fighter was the most advanced active fighter in the world at that time.  Its performance has formed an overwhelming advantage over active fighter jets from various countries.  However, since 2008, pilots have successively reported failures in the F22's oxygen supply system. In 2011, the US Air Force grounded the F22 fleet for five months to solve this problem.

    It can be seen that when a new thing is just born, there will always be quite a lot of problems.

    Of course, there is actually another explanation for the f22 problem, and that is as early as 2000.  The military has learned that the F22's onboard oxygen supply system has fatal risks and has provided solutions in confidential documents.  Incredibly, the military turned a deaf ear to this out of "cost considerations", leading to tragedy.

    In addition, the F22 can be said to be the only fourth-generation aircraft currently in service.  Even the F35 is not included, because according to the 4S standard proposed by the Americans themselves, the sound cruise alone is not what the F35 can achieve, or it can be said that "Fei Dian" does not have the ability to sound cruise at all.

    In fact, it is in the 4S standard.  The 'Feidian' has no sound to cruise, and its maneuverability is unsatisfactory. Its stealth performance is not as good as that of the F22 due to its fat and uneven body. Only its perception ability is the strong point of the F35.

    ?The latest news is.  Canada has decided not to buy F35 anymore

    Because this is basically a huge pit that lasts for ten thousand years

    As for how the Japanese bypassed the radar stations in Dalian and Weihai, the reason is actually very simple.  Flying low¡­

    ¡°It can only be said that the Air Defense Command is too dependent on radar, and it does not have this weakness of radar at all.  As long as it flies at low altitude, radar stations and the like will not be able to detect low-altitude flying targets.

    This weakness was learned by the Japanese from the Germans.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    "Is this Beijing"

    Driving the Type 97 heavy critical strike machine, Kazuo Mishima said coldly.

    As a Tokyo native, both of his parents died in the bombing not long ago. It was precisely for this reason that when the military decided to carry out this mission with a very high mortality rate, Mishima was the first to stand up.  .

    For him, this was a battle of revenge, and he never thought about going back alive.

    "So, where should we bomb first"

    The Type 97 heavy bomber is not a heavy bomber like the H3 or H40 and cannot carry tons of ammunition. Therefore, with limited ammunition, Mishima can only select some targets for bombing.

    At this time, Mishima saw a high-rise building, and he even saw some people running into the high-rise building.

    ¡°Then, blow it up there!!!¡±

    Looking at the people running from the gate to the high-rise building, Mishima smiled cruelly.

    Just as Mishima lowered the nose of the plane and flew towards the tall building, the police and some soldiers of the National Defense Force were also guiding the crowd on the ground.

    "Hurry up!!!"

    Standing at the gate of a shopping mall, a police officer shouted loudly to the screaming people running towards the mall.

    ¡°There is an underground passage in the shopping mall, so it¡¯s okay to hide there!!!¡±

    ??Ahem, it should actually be called an underground shopping mall. In fact, many newly built commercial buildings in Beijing have one or two floors of underground space, and these spaces are used as underground shopping malls.

    In fact, even in later generations, there are many shopping malls with so-called underground shopping malls.

    These shopping malls often feel very narrow when you enter, like passages one after another.Like this, and they are used to avoid air attacks at critical moments.

    But Mishima doesn¡¯t know this, and because Beijing is a city with a large population, there are quite a lot of people gathered at the gate of the shopping mall, so

    "die!!!"

    Looking at the civilians on the ground, the bombardier behind Mishima pressed the button.

    Four 250-kilogram aerial bombs fell from the magazine and landed near the mall gate. Although the 250-kilogram aerial bombs were not very powerful, at least they could not bring any damage to Yan Guang's nuclear bunker-level underground shelter.  No harm, but for fragile humans, the power of a 250-kilogram aerial bomb is already powerful enough

    With just a 'boom', the people who had gathered at the gate had already collapsed. When an aerial bomb directly hit the mall, a large piece of the mall itself collapsed

    At this time, maybe the people in the shopping mall have hid underground, or maybe not, who knows

    "It's time to go back"

    After hovering in the air for a while, signaling the machine gunner to shoot at the ground, and shooting at the civilians who were not dead yet, Mishima drove the plane back to North Korea.

    The Type 97 heavy blaster has four 7.7mm caliber ** machine guns and a 12.7mm caliber HO103 heavy machine gun placed at the rear. Although the 12.7mm one cannot be used easily, the 7.7mm one cannot  questionable.

    While piloting the plane on its way back, Mishima passed a school.

    When he saw the school, Mishima thought of his time in school, and also considered whether to fly a plane and hit the school with a "kamikaze". Of course, there were no kamikaze agents in Japan at this time.  But Mishima doesn't mind doing it himself.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that considering that Japan does not have many resources, especially building a Type 97 heavy critical strike aircraft requires quite a lot of resources for Japan, so in the end Mishima had no choice but to give up.  After all, on the way here, the officers above did not give Mishima any more orders.

    However, just as Mishima began to return to North Korea under the guidance of the co-pilot, the anti-aircraft firepower on the ground suddenly became fierce.

    In just a short time, a hole was punched in the wing of the heavy blaster piloted by Mishima.

    ¡°Damn!!!¡±

    If Mishima was still willing to die just now, now he only has the heart not to let the Chinese succeed.

    After pulling the nose of the plane, Mishima began to fly the plane high into the sky.

    However, not long after flying, Mishima saw four fighter jets flying towards him.

    "This is!!!"

    Looking at the four planes flying over, the co-pilot said in surprise.

    In fact, he didn¡¯t need to say much, Mishima already understood that this was a fighter jet of the National Defense Air Force.

    In fact, for this kind of fighter, when Mishima and others set out, the Army Aviation had already given them quite a lot of information. After all, in Taiwan, the Army Aviation and Hainan Airlines had lost quite a lot of fighter jets.  .

    Therefore, Mishima and the others also understood that with the bombers they flew alone, it was impossible to escape the four enemy planes in front of them that were no match for even zero battles and could only be slightly matched by the latest new fighter jets.  matter.

    But although it is impossible, Mishima is not willing to give up, so

    "Come!!!"

    Looking at the four ZD20s, Mishima did not dodge, and directly drove the plane towards them. At this time, the four ZD20s on the opposite side also opened fire

    More than a minute later, the air defense troops on the ground discovered that the Japanese bomber was dragging thick smoke towards the ground not far away

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    Although the Japanese action was very sudden, Beijing is the capital of China after all and has a considerable degree of defense here. Therefore, all the incoming enemy planes were shot down and none of them could return to North Korea¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªThis  It is also normal. After all, not to mention Beijing's anti-aircraft firepower and the surrounding air force, there are a considerable number of fighter planes taking off in Tianjin to intercept them. It would be a strange thing for them to run away.

    However, even if all the hundreds of bombers that attacked were destroyed, China still suffered more than a thousand casualties. Although these casualties were nothing compared to Japan, the casualties of more than a thousand people still severely shocked the national society.  A slap in the face from the government.

    At the same time, these casualties also make many people understand that in war, some people will die (To be continued)
