Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Compared with the attack on Palmantong Airport, it was more complicated.  [.Com text] The attack on Mudanjiang Hailang Airport was much simpler.  At noon, the light bomber squadron 16 and the heavy bomber squadron 98, a total of 22 aircraft, were dispatched to bomb the opponent's depth. They had just returned and less than ten minutes after landing, a group of unidentified aircraft suddenly flew over the airport.

    Compared to Major General Toshiro Kawabe who was almost seamlessly fooled by the other party and still managed to get in touch with his superiors, Major General Tian Fudan of the Kwantung Army's 8th Flying Regiment, the commander of Hailang Airport, simply thought that this was the case.  It was a friendly aircraft that transferred over from there, or a newly reinforced aircraft from the base camp.

    Because Major General Tian Fudeng is similar to all his colleagues in at least one point of view. He also believes that the other side does not have a single aircraft. The Kwantung Army has always been the master of the Manchurian sky.  In this land, not only the land, sea, but also the jurisdiction of the sky belong to the Kwantung Army.

    He never thought that these unidentified aircraft that suddenly flew over his airport were the enemy's Major General Tian Fudeng, and he mistook the unidentified single-engine aircraft in the sky for the Army Aviation Type 98 light bombers in transit.  As for those aircraft with twin engines and twin tail booms, he imaginatively regarded them as HNA's Type 96 bombers.

    When the opponent's aircraft has begun to dive and enter the bombing procedure.  Even after the bombs had landed on the airport, he was still cursing those damn superiors, and did not even give advance notice when the naval aviation force was about to transfer.  He also vowed to accuse these pilots who had the audacity to make such dangerous actions regardless of the safety of the aircraft to their superiors.  It doesn't matter whether he is in the army or the navy.

    He was equally unprepared. Even the man who saw the opponent dropping a bomb relied on his agility to hide in a concealment next to the command post and escaped. However, he was shot all over by machine guns fired by the opponent's single-engine aircraft that swooped down.  The brittle deputy Tian was even more wary than the good-looking Major General Toshiro Kawabe who still wanted to get in touch with his superiors.

    The opponent's bombs have already fallen into the neatly arranged fleet of aircraft on the ground, setting the planes on the ground on fire one by one. He still stubbornly believed that those planes were naval aviation coming to support, and vowed to sue these planes to the Tokyo base camp.  There is no distinction between our enemy and our navy.  Bring these bomb-throwing bastards to court-martial.

    After personally interrogating the survivors at the two airports, Namada Shigeichi couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.  Including the always arrogant staff officers of the Fifth Army, they were all shocked by the opponent's recent seemingly unconstrained thinking and creativity.  If the other party at Mudanjiang Hailang Airport adopted a usual tailing attack.  But the attack on Bamiantong Airport can be said to be an unconventional tactic.

    After being attacked one after another last year, the Kwantung Army aviation force has significantly strengthened its security at the airport.  Various airports, especially the periphery of Yeongbi Airport, not only cleared a large number of unmanned zones, but also deployed a large number of landmines.  But they didn't expect that the opponent's attack not only disguised themselves as Japanese troops, but also came from the sky where they had no defense at all.

    More than ten planes were so arrogantly robbed from under their noses, and the Muling Airport was blown up with bombs carried by the aviation soldiers themselves.  This result is difficult for Hatada Juichi to accept, and at the same time, he still doesn't know how to explain it to the Kwantung Army headquarters and base camp.

    There are more than 300 aircraft, plus more than 300 crews, accounting for one-third of all the aircraft in the entire Kwantung Army Flight Group.  Someone used his own plane to blow it up in his own airport, and ended up stealing more than a dozen of them right under his nose. Would anyone believe this?

    In order to cover up the reason why it was difficult to speak out, after hesitating for a long time, Namada Juichi modified the reported materials.  After shooting the only surviving guard squadron leader at Muling Airport on charges of dereliction of duty, he ordered all those with knowledge of the incident to strictly keep confidentiality and not to leak a single word.  The guys from the Muling Gendarmerie who were the first to know about it were all sent to the front line by him.  He also personally called the 11th Division and selected the most dangerous place for these military police who had been temporarily converted into infantry.

    After completing the work of killing people and silencing them, he modified the incident of the attack on Bamiantong Airport to the same situation as Hailang Airport, which suffered a large number of air attacks by the opponent's aviation force.  At the same time, Major Hashimoto Ryuichi of the intelligence squadron directly under the army also wrote down the fact that the opponent's weapons and equipment contained Polish-made arms, and he personally sent them to the Kwantung Army headquarters as quickly as possible by Major Hashimoto.

    ¡°There are no planes and no railways, so the only way to submit materials this time is by car and by road.  In order to ensure that this document is delivered to the Kwantung Army headquarters intact under the same unsafe conditions on the highway, and to protect the safety of his illegitimate son.  Shigeichi Hatada specially deployed six armored vehicles and a mechanized infantry unit.?The squadron is dedicated to escorting.

    Namada Juichi, who was troubled by how to report aviation losses, did not know that his opponent had already started planning this surprise attack on the airport as early as last year after he obtained the first batch of transport aircraft.

    This plan was basically based on Yang Zhen¡¯s improved tactics of the Soviet Army¡¯s surprise attack on Prague Airport in later generations.  It's just that unlike the Soviet army that aimed to seize the entire Czech Republic, Yang Zhen not only wanted to destroy the entire Japanese airport, but also always wanted to take advantage of it and get back as many planes as he could.

    It's just that it doesn't have the large-scale cargo capacity used by the Soviet army in later generations, with a maximum load capacity of 80 tons. It can easily load a main battle tank and armored vehicle onto the plane, and uses a clamshell door, which can be easily loaded and unloaded by personnel and weapons.  An 22 large military transport aircraft.  There is no An-12 transport plane with a maximum load capacity of 20 tons that can carry a company of paratroopers.

    He only has the C-47 transport plane, which has a maximum load capacity of just over one ton and can carry more than 20 people, as well as imitation Li-2 transport planes and Bai-type transport planes whose performance has dropped a lot.  The largest payload capacity is only about six tons of C-47 transport aircraft.  It is simply incomparable to the Soviet army that had a large number of large-tonnage military transport aircraft in later generations.

    ???????????????????????????????? Since the capital on hand was limited and could only be determined according to the materials, and it was impossible to invest all the transport aircraft at once, Yang Zhen finally decided to use the tactic of combining ground assault and transport aircraft landing.  It is to use the main force of the reconnaissance battalion to strengthen several carefully selected reconnaissance companies from the entire army to form a detachment, and conduct ground penetration attacks to attack Muleng Bamiantong Airport, which is closest to the battlefield and poses the greatest threat to front-line troops.

    "The tactics of air landing at Mudanjiang Hailang Airport, which is located deep within the Japanese army, were adopted. Transport planes were used to land in the same way as Japanese aircraft were lost, and part of the reconnaissance battalion directly under the military region carried by the aircraft was used to seize and destroy the entire airport.  In order to complete this task, the reconnaissance battalion directly under the military region has conducted long-term response training at Luobei Airport.

    But after receiving the Polish-made bombers transferred from Jiangbei, especially after these bombers completed training and returned to China, Yang Zhen hesitated for a long time and decided to change his tactics.  There is no way to use ready-made killing weapons, so we should adopt a more dangerous airborne assault.

    After repeated deliberation, Yang Zhen gave up the special operations against Mudanjiang Airport and instead used bombers to take advantage of the fact that the Japanese army had no knowledge of the fact that he had aviation forces in his hands. He followed the situation and dispatched all bombers to carry bombs against Mudanjiang without escort.  An air raid was conducted at Hailang Airport.  In order to save the next part of the transporter.

    Although the light and heavy bombers on hand were even five PZL 37 bombers captured in Lithuania that Jiangbei later transferred to Jiangbei, and two Daoni imported by Jiangbei as reference for the development of its own new bomber, they were torn into pieces and reassembled.  Seoul Type 17 bomber.  There are only nineteen aircraft in total.

    ??Among them, there are only nine twin-engine bombers with larger bomb loads.  The rest are all light bombers with relatively close bomb loads and range.  But Yang Zhen still decided to take a risk and gamble.  He was betting on whether he had done a good job in keeping secrets. The Japanese army knew nothing about the aviation force they had on hand.

    Due to strict confidentiality measures, the Japanese army not only knew nothing about the fighters and bombers Yang Zhen had on hand, but also the transport aircraft.  With this premise, Yang Zhen's plan to use the air force on a large scale can be said to be at least 30% certain.

    In addition, Li Mingrui, who was ordered to infiltrate into the Mulengri-occupied area, ambushed a Japanese car convoy before the plan was fully launched.  Some of the Japanese-style trucks were seized, and in order to facilitate their activities behind enemy lines, the Intelligence Department carefully crafted the certificates of the Kwantung Army's Special Intelligence Department that could be mistaken for real ones. Even real Japanese intelligence personnel may not be able to distinguish them.

    In order to ensure the smooth execution of this plan, Yang Zhen not only deployed four C-46 transport planes but also replaced the two Hundred-type transport planes to serve as the replacement.  All pilots on hand who had been fully trained and returned to the country were dispatched.

    In order to ensure the success of the operation, the Japanese army even cut off external communication between the two airports.  Even the entire army, which had only been used at night before, and even the only electronic warfare aircraft in the world at this time, were dispatched.  Electronic suppression was forcibly carried out at two airports, especially Muling Bahiantong Airport.  High-power radio stations that interfere with their communication with superiors.

    After a period of use, the operators on the aircraft have become very skilled in using these jamming devices.  In addition, although it was impossible to decipher the Japanese aviation code before.  However, the frequency of Japanese ground-to-air communication and the call signs for communication between various departments of the Army Air Force were seized from the downed Japanese aircraft.

    In addition, this time only a few radio stations at two Japanese airports need to be suppressed, which is far better than before.It would be much easier to dispatch from here to suppress all Japanese tactical radio stations on the entire front.  Therefore, this electronic warfare aircraft performed extremely well this time. In addition to being unable to suppress the ultra-high-power radio station used by the Japanese army to communicate with Tokyo, it also suppressed the wireless communication between the two airports.

    In order to ensure the success of this raid and break the Japanese air supremacy, Yang Zhen has been planning hard for a long time.  Not only were all the pilots who had completed the formation flight sent out, but also all the bombers on hand that could take off for combat were also sent out.  To use what he said to Guo Bingxun after the operation began: "If this mission fails, our aviation force will probably be damaged."
