Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The words spoken by Lieutenant General Tokugawa Yoshitoshi were not just a warning or threat to the rear admiral. Umezu Meijiro and Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, who were angered by the huge battle losses on the battlefield today, had already  He had made up his mind that if this guy continued to play the Kwantung Army like fools so unscrupulously, he would go directly to the Emperor to complain.

    Let¡¯s fight a good lawsuit with the Navy¡¯s bunch of bastards. Even if we can¡¯t send this guy to the reserve and strip him of his uniform, we still have to disgust those arrogant Navy guys. At worst, we can fight with the Navy.  Come on, I won't beg you any more. It's not enough if I don't need you.

    Just listening to Tokugawa Yoshitoshi's last words, which were almost stern, Onishi Takijiro smiled slightly and said: "Lieutenant General Tokugawa, don't worry, today our plan to weaken the enemy's air defense strength to a certain extent has been realized. On the battlefield tomorrow,  Our strength is basically equal to that of the enemy."

    "As long as the Army can not let their ground anti-aircraft firepower mess up, I am confident that they will completely defeat their air defense force in tomorrow's battle. Although today's battle has shown that they are a well-trained force, but we  "The zero combat aircraft is superior to their combat aircraft in terms of flight performance."

    "Our pilots are also higher in basic military literacy than these fledgling opponents. The reason why they can defeat us in the air mainly relies on the performance gap between the aircraft they use and the Imperial Army aircraft.  As long as this gap is eliminated, we are fully confident that they will be able to come back. "

    "There is also a fundamental gap in strength between us and them. If we knock down one of our planes, the locals can replenish us with one or even more planes, but they do not have this capability. They do not have a modern industrial base.  , an army that can only supplement combat aircraft through outsourcing can only be an army with no confidence in modern wars. Once the supply line is cut off, they will become water without a source. "

    "No matter how generous the Americans are and continue to assist their combat aircraft, when the American aircraft arrive, we don't know what the war situation will be like. Tomorrow we will dispatch the entire army to let them see what empire is.  Elite, see what it means to be a true flying elite.¡±

    Although the final assurance of Major General Onishi Takijiro sounded harsh and uncomfortable to Lieutenant General Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, considering that tomorrow's battle will mainly rely on the navy's contribution, there was no further dispute, but for this  After all, the guy was still a little worried. Before leaving, he left a senior combat staff officer behind on the pretext of coordinating command to supervise the operations here.

    Of course, Onishi Takijiro was very clear about Tokugawa Yoshitoshi's behavior, but he finally sent away Lieutenant General Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, a guy he hated and looked down on. Onishi Takijiro also  I didn't continue to argue on this topic. Anyway, I was just a combat staff officer and could not play any role.

    After seeing off Lieutenant General Yoshitoshi Tokugawa and sending the combat staff officer he left behind to rest, Onishi Takijiro returned to the war room before he could sit back in his seat. A combat staff officer next to him came over and was a little confused.  He said: "Your Majesty General, are we really going to follow their request tomorrow and change our original bloodletting plan a little bit, and launch a full zero battle to fight against Jiangbei's air defense forces?"

    "Your Excellency, in my opinion, your all-out approach is undoubtedly a very risky move for our army. The performance of enemy aircraft does have a certain gap with zero combat, but this gap is not very big.  Moreover, although the enemy suffered certain losses in today's battle, it was far from being damaged. "

    "Based on the results of today's battle and the losses between the enemy and ourselves, even if we can achieve the set goal, I am afraid that our army's losses will be extremely heavy. And if the losses in zero battles participating in the war are too heavy, it will be extremely detrimental to your future.  , Neither the Naval Aviation Headquarters nor the Combined Fleet will turn a blind eye. You also know that the Aviation Headquarters and the Combined Fleet attach great importance to these zero battles. "

    Regarding the doubts of the combat staff officer, Onishi Takijiro shook his head and said: "We must go all out this time. Even His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the Kwantung Army's counterattack. As soon as the air battle ends today, the Chief of Staff and the Navy  Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, called me personally to inquire about the situation of the war."

    "The Chief of Staff and the Prime Minister are directly responsible to the Emperor, so the telegram sent by these two people is undoubtedly an inquiry on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor. In other words, His Majesty the Emperor is paying close attention to this battle. Just from this  At this point, we have no reason to delay any longer.¡±

    "As well as the Naval Command and the Combined Fleet, they can no longer tolerate the main force of the Navy's shore-based aviation force to continue to accompany the Army in this desolate Manchuria. The Military Order??You have also seen the telegram jointly sent by Chief of Operations Rear Admiral Shigeru Fukudome and Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet Rear Admiral Matoi Ugaki. Do you think that under such circumstances, there is still a possibility for us to delay?  "

    "No matter whether the enemy's strength is really exhausted to the limit we need, we must attack across the board. As long as the weather permits, we must go all out. The situation in Manchuria is related to the next step of the base camp.  Can we have a stable rear for our operations?¡±

    "It is even directly related to the next strategic development of the empire. It can be said to be a life and death battle. The Kwantung Army's comprehensive counterattack is about to begin. Whether this plan can be successfully realized is not only related to the war situation in Manchuria, but also related to the gains and losses of Xinjing.  Since the Kwantung Army is not afraid of destroying their own territory, what do we have to care about? Let¡¯s fight with all our strength. As for the outcome of the fight, it depends on the national destiny of the empire. "

    Having said that, Onishi Takijiro walked to the large aviation combat map hanging on the wall, pondered for a long time and said to the combat staff beside him: "Order all aviation teams to dispatch all aviation teams in two waves tomorrow, starting from Harbin to Wuchang.  demarcation line and conduct air strikes against enemy air defense forces.¡±

    "Order the German-made Mei fighter squadrons and new fighter squadrons of the Army Aviation Corps to cover the Army Aviation Type 99 light bombers and Type 98 light bombers to attack the front-line anti-alliance ground air defense firepower in Fuyu, Acheng, and Wuchang, and also  The Type 96 and Type 97 fighter jets of the Navy and Army were also equipped with bombs and all launched to join the group of ground anti-aircraft fire strikes. "

    "Order all airports to be prepared for air defense tonight. Today's operation has exposed all our strategic intentions and the secret airports for takeoff and landing. The enemy is likely to send bombers to retaliate, so tell them to each field airport,  Be sure to be prepared for air raids at night.¡±

    "All combat aircraft that can enter the cave will enter the cave. Those that cannot enter the cave will be evacuated as much as possible. While concealing the combat aircraft, they must be prepared to go to war tomorrow. They cannot be evacuated because of evacuation.  Just give up on war preparation efforts.¡±

    "Go and deliver the order. At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, all aviation groups participating in the war, regardless of the army, navy or air force, will take off at the same time from all the airports where they are currently stationed. The East Group will converge over Shulan, and the West Group will converge over Buyeo. Tell the meteorological department  , I want the most comprehensive weather information for tomorrow.¡±

    As soon as Onishi Takijiro finished speaking, the staff officer next to him looked at him with a ferocious face and said with some fear: "Your Excellency, when you were meeting with Lieutenant General Tokugawa, I received a notification from the meteorological department that we will leave Fuyu in the west tomorrow.  From Weihe in the east to Xinjing in the north to Qingcheng and Wangkui in the south, there will be widespread rainfall, and there may even be heavy rain in some areas, accompanied by widespread thunder and lightning."

    "That is to say, this rain belt covers almost our entire combat area. Unless we risk our lives to attack, our aircraft will not be able to go into battle, and it will be difficult to find the entire combat area in the next three days.  Good weather, Your Excellency, this is the time when the entire Songhua River Basin receives the most rainfall. Such widespread rainfall is normal and unavoidable.¡±

    After hearing the staff report, Onishi Takijiro grabbed the telegram that the combat staff member had just taken out of the folder in his hand, read it carefully, sat down on the chair, shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on these days.  The large-scale rainfall is a sign of God¡¯s help, or it¡¯s just causing trouble with me.¡±

    "Three full days are enough for us or our tenacious opponent to do a lot of things. However, although three full days were wasted, it is still enough for us to make some adjustments and improve some details.  The supplement is enough for us to bargain with the Kwantung Army and the Combined Fleet. "

    It's just that this guy, who is called the Shura heretic of the Japanese Navy, is not so easily defeated. After a brief period of confusion, Major General Onishi Takijiro stood up, looked at the aviation map in front of him, and looked at the combat staff beside him.  Said: "Although the weather is bad, each aviation team must be ready to set off at any time."

    "I also told the meteorological department to keep an eye on the weather changes. If there is a trend of improvement in the weather, report it to me immediately without any delay. Order the intelligence department to take advantage of the opportunity when the weather turns bad in the past few days.  Make every effort to collect the exact location of enemy airports and ground anti-aircraft firepower points.¡±

    "Tell the intelligence department that they will check all the intelligence sources of the air reconnaissance in the Anti-Japanese Alliance at all costs. Today's air defense operations are so narrow in depth from the Kwantung Army's control area to the combat area.  Under such circumstances, they were able to respond so quickly. This is definitely not something that can be achieved simply by relying on ground air defense sentries.¡±

    "In addition to a large number of air observation posts on the ground, they must have another source of intelligence. No matter what their intelligence source is, it currently poses too great a threat to our next combat plan. If we do not destroy this intelligence source, we will  Like a thorn in the back.  "

    "No matter what means they take, let alone heavy rain, even if it is a knife from the sky, they will send reconnaissance planes to conduct reconnaissance for me. I understand, I only give them three days, I don't care what they do, even if all the reconnaissance planes are sent  Even if you lose it, you have to give me a result.¡±

    "In addition, I will send a message to Rear Admiral Shigeru Fukudome, Chief of Operations of the Naval Command Department, that I need the support of the Navy. First, I can give up the Zero fighter fleets that have been transferred back to the aircraft carrier, but he must give me within forty-eight hours to bring the Navy back to the aircraft carrier.  Luji Aviation, send me another Zero Fighter Squadron, and tell Major General Shigeru Fukudome that I will only use this aviation squadron until next Wednesday."

    "I know that the training pressure of the Naval Operations Department and the Combined Fleet is high now, so I don't insist on the carrier-based aviation team. However, one or two aviation teams can still be transferred to the shore-based aviation team. I think I will transfer it to  The flying team in Tainan that has changed its gear to zero combat is good.¡±
