    Such as relying on ourselves.  [.Com text: And many times, losing contact with superiors is not necessarily a bad thing for us now.  This matter is settled as it is, and I don¡¯t want to have any different opinions.  You go ahead and execute it, we will break out as soon as it gets dark.  "

    Kita Makoto¡¯s firm attitude made the staff dare not say any more.  Although I don't really agree with his rash breakout without intelligence support.  But facing the division commander who had always made up his mind and would never change, the staff officer knew that it was useless to object.  If we have this time, we might as well discuss more about how to avoid losses as much as possible during the breakout.

    In fact, Kita Seiichi¡¯s guess was not wrong. The opponent¡¯s air raids on him, except for a small number of aircraft used to protect the arsenal in Luobei, were almost all launched.  The air raid on Harbin Airport failed, and all the anger was directed at the independent troops who were reinforcing the 14th Division. After issuing these orders, Lieutenant General Kita Seiichi looked a little dazed. He didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. His staff was a little confused.  Hesitantly said: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, these weapons were given by the Emperor. It would not be good to just throw them to the enemy. Even if we want to give up these weapons, we should blow them up to avoid falling to the enemy."  In the hands of the army.¡±

    "And your Excellency, the division commander, our radio contact with each regiment is now interrupted. Except for the 15th regiment, which still has wired communication, the rest are all interrupted again. That is to say, for Colonel Onimu Goto and Colonel Nasu Yumio  We simply can¡¯t send out the order now.¡±

    "And our current radio contact with the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the Fifth Army Headquarters has been interrupted again. Since early this morning, our radio contact with the Kwantung Army Headquarters has been intermittent, often inexplicably.  Interrupted. This is the seventh time the radio contact has been interrupted.¡±

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, after research by the division's communications officer, it is not that our radio equipment failed, but that the other party must have used some interference method. Our radio station, except for the huge noise, cannot receive any signal. Also  That is to say, we have now lost all means of communication with the outside world, and we will not get any support even if we break through. "

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, are you waiting? At least wait until the radio contact with the 59th Regiment is restored before breaking through. Without the support of the 59th Regiment, relying on our existing troops, there is no hope of breaking through.  Not very big. In the afternoon, the enemy forces in the Deshan direction have increased their strength by at least one regiment. We must at least communicate with the intelligence department to understand the deployment of the enemy forces around us. "

    "Moreover, the enemy's artillery support has obviously increased significantly. The enemy in the Deshan direction only used a small number of mortars and infantry artillery yesterday. But this morning, its firepower increased significantly. Not only mountain artillery, but also  More than 100 mm of artillery appeared. If you abandon all the artillery, we have no artillery cover, and the success rate of the breakout is almost zero. "

    Faced with the questions from his staff, Kita Makoto shook his head and said: "There is no time. We have a large number of enemy reinforcements on the back road now. Our reinforcements don't know when they will arrive, but the opponent's reinforcements are constantly coming.  It is increasing. If we don¡¯t leave, once the opponent completes the deployment of troops, it will be difficult for us to leave.¡±

    "As for those equipment, wouldn't blowing them up tell the enemy that we are going to break through lightly? In the situation where the strength of the enemy and ourselves is very different, if we can't achieve tactical surprise, our hope of successfully breaking through will be extremely slim."

    Having said this, Kita Makoto pointed to the enemy's circling aircraft in the sky and said: "As for the Kwantung Army intelligence department, forget it. What we were informed before the war was that the opponent's firepower was weak. During this period, the opponent's firepower was weak.  You also know what happened. If their intelligence judgment had not been wrong, the 14th Division would not have suffered heavy losses in the previous battles and fell into the current situation of insufficient troops. "

    "There are also these aircraft. Before going to war, no one told us that the opponent not only had aviation, but also had a large number. Regarding these key intelligences related to the success or failure of the battle, the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department made many mistakes in judgment. Can we still believe it?  What are they?"

    "There are now more than a hundred enemy aircraft above the 14th Division alone. So how many total enemy aircraft are there? According to my understanding of the Imperial Army Aviation combat regulations, it must be at least three times more. Unless the opponent gets it  I was so mad that I sent out all of them without leaving any one behind.¡±

    "Can you contact the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department? It is of no use to us at the moment, but it is not very helpful. Instead of relying on their intelligence that we don't know whether it is true or false, after the return of the Fujian Guards. According to Yang Zhen  In order to increase the power and intensity of the air strikes as much as possible, Fang Ziyi reorganized all the air forces on hand when the enemy's air forces had been destroyed.

      In addition to leaving five squadrons of sixty P-39 fighter jets to provide air cover on the battlefield, continue to provide battlefield interdiction, and guard against subsequent sneak attacks by enemy aircraft.  All fighters and bombers on hand were organized into four groups, each of which designated combat areas to provide air support for ground operations.  and bombing Japanese reinforcements to support ground operations.

    As American-made fighter jets began to return to China to participate in the war, Fang Ziyi not only had a large number of fighter jets under his command, but also increased his number of fighter jets.  Compared with the number of bombers half a month ago, there were only a dozen Polish-made bombers and a few stolen Japanese Type 97 bombers. Although it cannot be said that a shotgun was replaced by a cannon, the strength has also been greatly developed.

    At this moment, the bombers in his hands not only include the Polish-made fighter jets that Jiangbei had provided before, but also the ones that Jiangbei provided and captured from the three Baltic countries that were annexed by them before the campaign was launched. After completing the modification training, they used the twelve returned British-made fighter jets with the American-made fighter jets.  Blenheim bomber.  As well as the two Dornier 17 bombers transferred at the beginning of the year, the Soviet army purchased six He-11 bombers and six Junkers 88 bombers from Germany for research last year.

    Since the Soviet army entered Poland last year, sixteen of the latest British Hurricane fighter jets and 49 French-made fighter jets were urgently imported from the United Kingdom.  When the Soviet army entered the three Baltic countries, the Third Army did not resist, and almost all the equipment fell into the hands of the Soviet army intact.

    The Soviet Army was obviously not very interested in these aircraft produced by Britain and France.  After the war in Western Europe started, these British and French fighter jets did not perform well when fighting against the German army.  Especially those French-made fighter jets. Except for the twenty-two MS 406 fighter jets, the rest are old-fashioned and cannot match the performance of I-Sixteen's D-501 fighter jets.

    Therefore, after the Soviet army conducted test flights, it was found that it could not meet its needs for new fighter jets, especially the latest Western aviation technology.  At the end of May, all the weapons and equipment captured by the Soviet army in the three Baltic countries were transferred to Yang Zhen's headquarters at once.

    Although the three countries are small, their military strength is not strong.  But because these three countries are relatively wealthy, their weapons and equipment are basically in sync with Britain and France.  So although the equipment transferred over this batch is not large in quantity, it is also very miscellaneous.  But for Yang Zhen, it is better than nothing after all.

    Especially the addition of tanks can be said to have solved a big problem for Yang Zhen.  The number of these aircraft is small, and the number of new fighter jets is only sixteen British-made Hurricane fighter jets of the Estonian Air Force and twelve MS 406 fighter jets of the Lithuanian Air Force.  But the twelve Blenheim bombers and the twelve German bombers solved the major problem of the Anti-Alliance Air Force bombers being weak, with a small number but extremely complicated models.

    These types of bombers were also the main bombers of the German army and the main light bombers of the British army in World War II.  Although the quantity is still insufficient, it is at least much better than before.  These aircraft were transferred back together with US-made fighter jets.  Just because the military factories, agencies, and schools in the rear had to leave some fighter jets for air defense, so in the morning's air battles and air raids, except for bombers, no fighter jets were dispatched.

    ¡°But in order to support ground operations, especially when a part of fighter jets have to be assigned to perform air defense missions, we are worried that there will be some insufficient strength.  In the early morning, the front wing was dispatched to seek Yang Zhen's approval. Except for the MS 406 fighter jets, which had short legs and was only suitable for air defense missions in important areas, the British and French fighter jets that were originally staying at Luobei Airport were all British and French fighter jets.  All transferred to Tangyuan.  During the afternoon sortie, all the bombs were mounted for ground air strikes.

    In order to ensure the intensity of the air strike, Fang Ziyi, who currently has much more troops on hand, studied with Yuan Bin and Xia Boxun, and even the twenty-seven D501 fighter jets that were originally intended to be used only as high-level trainer aircraft.  Like the Polish-made fighter jets that need to persist for a period of time due to insufficient ground attack aircraft, bombs are attached for ground support.

    According to Fang Ziyi¡¯s deployment, these temporarily modified fighter jets for ground support, together with the previous Polish fighter jets and light bombers, provide fire support for ground operations.  All medium bombers, under the cover of sixty P-39 fighter jets with relatively large range and loaded with bombs, blocked the highways connecting Ning'an, Weihe, Yanshou and Fangzheng, cutting off the routes for Japanese reinforcements.

    In order to achieve the strategic task assigned by the headquarters to fully support the second column in the battle against the 14th Division, Fang Ziyi almost went to pieces.  Almost all the aircraft on hand that have become combat capable were dispatched.  Use airborne bombs and airborne machine guns to fully support ground operations.

    Fang Ziyi's all-out effort greatly reduced the combat pressure and casualties on the ground troops.  It was Ma Chunsheng who blocked the operation of the 2nd Regiment of the 14th Division to forcefully cross the Ant River with less than one regiment and extremely tired troops.Relying on the full support of the aviation force, we were able to hold on to several ferries before reinforcements arrived, cutting off the hope of the Second Regiment to get closer to the 14th Division headquarters.

    Chai Shirong was able to hold the line of defense in the face of desperate attacks from the leading brigade of the 29th Division and the two squadrons of the 59th Regiment.  By the end of the entire battle, the 29th Division was not allowed to enter the Founder battlefield, and the full support of the aviation force was indispensable.  In the words of Wang Xiaoming after the battle, the aviation support was the greatest contributor to the outcome of the battle.
