Chapter 106: China's Roar 2
The war in Shanxi Province attracted attention from all over the world because of the exposure of the bloody massacre by the 22nd Division.
In particular, the surrendered soldiers of the 22th Regiment of the 38nd Division of the Japanese Army came forward to tell their stories and tell all about their atrocities to people all over the world.
Naturally, the Japanese government denied and quibbled in various ways. They said that this was a rumor deliberately created by the Chinese government to discredit them.
If those cowards could actually lay down their arms and surrender, they could then, under the coercion and inducement of the Chinese people, spread rumors and create trouble, and discredit their own country.
After the Nationalist government exposed this incident, it has been engaged in a war of words with Japan internationally. The 78th Army handed over the task of besieging Taiy and Taedong Island to the Second War Zone.
They left two divisions of the First Army to continue watching the Japanese devils in Xinzhou City who were like evil spirits.
The reason why these little Japanese were spared from death was to let the remaining soldiers of the 22nd Division, who had committed the sin of killing with their own hands, find out in desperation the place where their souls rested, and suffer devastating revenge because of them.
When you arrive in Jiaodong on a spring morning, everything is so beautiful. The green wheat fields are creating green waves in the breeze.
In the sunshine, there are crystal clear dewdrops on the buds that have not yet bloomed, and birds are chirping loudly on the branches.
However, all this harmonious atmosphere was completely destroyed by the huge roar.
One after another, the huge B29 bombers took off into the sky, and a total of 72 bombers flew towards the sunrise.
The airport was filled with people standing there to see the guests off. There were people wearing the uniforms of the National Army, and more people wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army. Among this group of people, there were also some foreigners with blue eyes and blond hair.
They were so harmonious in the sunshine, and everyone was waving towards the sky. This was the first time that the Chinese government actually sent bombers to bomb the Japanese mainland.
The last time the fighter jets were dispatched they just dropped some leaflets, but this time they were no longer leaflets, but bombs that represented revenge.
"Qingzhi! This time you came to visit us in Jiaodong. Our conditions are poor and we were unable to entertain you properly. Please forgive us!"
The person who spoke was the commander of the Jiaodong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, an old general who was very familiar to everyone.
"General Luo, what you said is ridiculous! We are very grateful to the Jiaodong Military Region for their help. If it weren't for the day and night work of the Jiaodong military and civilians, we wouldn't have achieved today's success!"
Inside the Air Force Command, everyone was chatting while waiting for news from the bombing group.
Since Jiaodong began to secretly build several runways, this did not attract much attention from the Japanese.
It was not until a week ago that a large number of bombers moved into Jiaodong and attracted the attention of the Japanese, but along with the bombers came a large number of fighter planes.
The Japanese reconnaissance planes could no longer experience the feeling of flying freely as before. Often, they were shot down by fighter planes that suddenly appeared from the sky before they even got close to the target.
The North China Expeditionary Army was very nervous. They thought that the Fifth War Zone of China would also make big moves like the Second War Zone.
I just don’t know why the Chinese Air Force built an airport in the Eighth Route Army’s base this time. Isn’t their relationship very tense?
At present, no one among the Japanese has imagined that China is planning to bomb their homeland, because the absolute defense group boasted by the military is still very credible in the minds of the Japanese.
Although a year ago, American Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy Doolittle sent 16 B-25 medium bombers to attack oil depots, factories and military facilities in Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya and Kobe, Japan.
After more than four hours of flight, except for one B72 bomber that had a mechanical failure and was forced to return, the other 29 bombers all flew over the Tsushima Strait and entered Japanese airspace.
"All crews, please maintain an altitude of 1 meters! We have entered the airspace of the Japanese mainland, please be careful of the Japanese intercepting fighter planes!"
It would be unrealistic for all the crew members to say they were not nervous. Of course, they were so nervous that their emotions were mixed with inexplicable excitement.
Among the entire crew, five pilots had participated in the Doolittle bombing of the Japanese mainland, while for the others it was the first time, especially the Chinese pilots.
When they thought that they would soon be able to drop the bomb of revenge on the Japanese homeland with their own hands, they felt a mixture of emotions.
How could they not have imagined that just one year later, the young commander actually made them fulfill the promise they made when they first joined the 78th Army!
They are coming! The Chinese Air Force is coming!
After entering the Japanese airspace, the fleet split into two. Forty-one B29s continued to fly northeast, their target being the Japanese capital of Tokyo.
The remaining thirty planes needed to make a circle, and their target was Shimane Prefecture, the hometown of the Japanese 22nd Division.
"George! How come in such a poor and backward country, they actually have such advanced bombers! You don't know, when we handed this information to the country, they were shocked!"
"I heard that there are also such aircraft in China, but they are still in the test flight and have not been mass-produced! It is incredible that this aircraft manufacturer in China can actually mass-produce such a large bomber!"
In fact, these American pilots had no idea that what they saw was something that could not be thought of using normal logic.
In Shimane Kuromatsu Town, at a newly built radar station, radar soldier Jiro the Dog was staring at the white radar screen out of boredom.
This boring life has been repeated every day since the radar station was built three months ago.
Thinking about whether he and Okamoto should go to the pub for a drink after finishing their duty tonight, he suddenly saw a bright spot appear at the top of the radar screen.
For the puppy who has been in a daze for a long time, his brain is still in a semi-downtime state at this time.
Two seconds later, the light spot on the monitor appeared again, this time it was no longer just one light spot, but several.
The puppy rubbed his eyes hard and stared at the screen again. When the light spot appeared on the screen again, the puppy knew that there was a group of large aircraft flying in the sky above the radar station.
"Ding ding ding" the phone rang in the duty room.
"Damn it! Who is calling at this time!" The officer in the duty room was taking a lunch break when the sudden ringing of the phone woke him up from his sleep!
"Moses, Moses!" Yamamoto picked up the phone and asked who it was and what was going on.
"Stationmaster! I'm Xiaogou, the radar inspector on duty today. There's something wrong with our radar. The radar shows that a large number of planes are flying towards the city!"
Yamamoto was still a little confused and didn't react immediately to what the other party said. It took him several seconds to digest what he said.
"Okay! You guys continue the test! I'll check with the ground observation station and the aviation unit to see if they have conducted such training today! Thank you for your hard work, little dog!"
"For the empire!" Xiao Quan immediately shouted the slogan loudly into the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Quan and another radar observer continued to stare at the radar screen and began to calculate their flight route and altitude.
Today's radar technology is not like that of later generations. A lot of data still needs to be obtained through calculations.
After some confirmation, Yamamoto looked a little unhappy. He had just confirmed that there was no flight training today.
In other words, these planes may not be the Empire's fighter planes, or they may be a group of planes whose itinerary was not notified in advance.
Logically speaking, he should have sounded the air raid alarm in this situation, but he was worried that once the air raid alarm was sounded, it would turn out to be a misunderstanding.
Then he would have to bear all the responsibilities for causing panic among the people, so Yamamoto did not choose to sound the air raid alarm, but chose to continue reporting to his superiors and let them make the decision.
