Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Major General Kumamoto, the commander of the Kyushu Third Air Force assigned to the Japanese garrison in Korea, began to use the tactics he thought he was best at. At least judging from the surface movements of the Japanese mixed fleet, the Japanese fleet was divided into three parts, and the target  Covering the three places of Mokpo, Gunsan and Incheon, Major General Kumamoto wanted to know how he would react if he suddenly had such an independent division and aircraft group divided into three escorts.

    "Report to Commander, the ground radar station reported that after the Japanese mixed fleet turned towards Incheon, it separated into two units and rushed towards Mokpo and Gunsan airspace respectively!" A staff officer put down the phone and reported hurriedly.

    He Zhijun and Dong Ningxuan, who were paying close attention to the movements of the Japanese mixed fleet, were shocked again after hearing the staff report. They both turned their attention to Liu Cuigang. They really couldn't figure out what the commander of the Japanese air fleet was doing.  Trick?

    Liu Cuigang's eyes jumped and he asked: "How many fighter jets are there in the Japanese fleet?"

    The staff officer replied: "According to the ground radar station report, the number of Japanese fighter jets attacking Mokpo and Gunsan is two brigades each!"

    Liu Cuigang had a sarcastic sneer on his lips, and said to the staff officer: "Okay, I understand, order the ground radar station to closely monitor the movements of the Japanese aircraft group!"

    After the staff officer left, Dong Ningxuan couldn't help but said: "Commander, I don't understand why the Japanese fleet acted like this. Do they want to carry out air strikes against my landing troops at three landing sites at the same time? In this case,  The Japanese army does not have an advantage in terms of the number of combat aircraft anywhere!¡±

    Liu Cuigang smiled coldly and said: "Two chiefs of staff, do you think that only two fighter groups with no more than forty fighter jets can defeat my escort fighter group and severely damage my landing force?"

    Dong Ningxuan and He Zhijun shook their heads at the same time.  He replied simply: "No, I'm afraid the Japanese fighter jets from the two brigades will be eaten by the fighter jets I escorted before they even approach the target airspace!"

    Liu Cuigang waved his remaining arm and said, "This is a smokescreen set up by the commander of the Japanese mixed aircraft group to disrupt our line of sight, you idiot. Don't pay attention to it. I am sure that within thirty minutes, the Japanese mixed aircraft group will definitely turn around."  Return to the original course - Mokpo, which is still the key airspace for the Japanese army to fight! "

    It¡¯s not just the chiefs of staff of the two major aviation groups of the independent division aviation who are confused, but also several fighter wing captains of the Third Air Force.  They were also completely confused. They simply couldn't understand what Commander Kumamoto was trying to do?  Not only did he blatantly disobey the orders of the North Korean garrison headquarters, he also sent a small number of fighter jets one after another to fly to Mokpo and Gunsan. Could it be that he wanted to fully blossom.  At the same time attack the landing force of the independent division?

    Although the Japanese fighter wing commanders of the Third Air Force were very confident and arrogant, they were not arrogant enough to use the strength of an air force to simultaneously attack the independent division's three-way escort aircraft group.  The order made my teeth itch with hatred, but I didn¡¯t dare to disobey the order.  Major General Kumamoto is in the Third Air Force, which means that he has a unique existence.

    Major General Kumamoto was secretly proud. Not only did he stage an attack in the east and attack the west to create suspicion, but he also used a trick to confuse the public. He believed that he could only succeed if he combined his plan.  Not only was General Tanaka confused, but even the commander of the escort aircraft group of the independent division was dazzled by his real killing move.  Still behind!

    After General Tanaka's stern order arrived at the headquarters of the Third Air Force, Lieutenant Colonel Ikebe, the chief of staff who was at the headquarters and directing the air combat, was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. In terms of affiliation, the Third Air Force  It belongs to the order of operations of the North Korean garrison. The orders of the garrison headquarters are the highest orders. Failure to comply is disobedience to military orders and is punishable by beheading.

    But Chief of Staff Ikebe really didn't dare to truthfully report the order of the North Korean garrison headquarters to Major General Kumamoto who was in the sky. The entire Third Air Force's assets were in the sky. General Tanaka said that the air fleet had been withdrawn.  The commander just withdrew?  Who will command the mixed fleet?  Isn¡¯t it a leaderless situation?

    Chief of Staff Ikebe looked down on General Tanaka, "He is just a complete layman. Does he think that he treats the division commander under him like a division commander? Just remove him and immediately send someone else to take over. Air combat, that is in the sky, even if  If you want to remove Major General Kumamoto from his post, you have to wait until this air battle is over, right?" He secretly cursed in his heart, and finally decided that the order from the North Korean garrison headquarters would not be reported to Commander Kumamoto in the sky for the time being.

    A senior staff officer was not very angry and said in a stupid voice: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, this is an order personally issued by General Tanaka, the commander of the North Korean garrison. We, the Third Air Force, have no right to refuse to execute it!"

    ? Poolside ParticipationThe commander, looking at this senior staff officer with the rank of colonel and an awe-inspiring look on his face, as if he was the most qualified officer in the Japanese Empire, became furious at that time and said in a cold tone: "Colonel Tanigawa, Commander of the Korean Garrison Army  How do we execute the order from the Ministry? Should we order General Kumamoto to return immediately and hand over the command, or should I fly the plane again, fly into the mixed formation, and take over the command?"

    If it weren't for the fact that the other party's military rank was higher than his own, Chief of Staff Chibian would have yelled loudly, "You fucking know nothing! You are a pure layman. I really don't know why the General Staff would send you like this who doesn't understand air combat at all."  Guys, come to 3rd Air Force!"

    This senior staff officer was speechless for a long time by Lieutenant Colonel Ikebian's strong words. He could not refute. His face turned purple, he swallowed hard and retreated to the side without saying a word. Yes, he was beaten by Tanaka.  The guy who dismissed the general is flying in the sky. We can't let him leave hundreds of combat aircraft and return home, right?  Things in heaven are completely different from those on earth. I am really fucking embarrassing myself!

    Thirty minutes later, Major General Kumamoto called the four fighter groups sent out, "What's the situation? Have you found the independent division's escort aircraft group?"

    The answers I got were basically different, "In the direction of Gunsan, no independent division fighter group has been found yet. In the direction of Mokpo, a large number of independent division fighter groups have been found, flying to the direction of Incheon!" Major General Kumamoto smiled proudly and gave the order: "Towards Mokpo.  The aircraft group in the direction of the mountains will return to the formation immediately, and the aircraft group in the direction of the mountains will continue to conduct reconnaissance! "

    "Attention to all the Third Air Force, immediately change the original route and continue flying to Mokpo airspace. Imperial eagles, there are countless Chinese soldiers on Mokpo beach, waiting for us to bomb, move forward at full speed! Mokpo, will  This is where our Third Air Force became famous in the first battle! Let the broken arms of the Chinese soldiers cover the beach of Mokpo, and the blood of the Chinese soldiers dye the Yellow Sea red! "

    Major General Kumamoto believed that his set of combined tactics was enough to disrupt the vision and thinking of the commander of the independent division's escort aircraft group, so he transferred the independent division's fighter jets in the direction of Mokpo to the direction of Incheon. But he had no idea that the air situation information was not available.  Symmetrically, all movements of the Third Air Force were seen by the Independent Division Aviation Ground Radar Station, and every move could not escape the eyes of the radar. However, on the Japanese side, there was no such radar, so from the beginning,  The fate of the Third Air Force was doomed!

    Major General Kumamoto was constantly using tricks and setting off smoke screens. Le Yiqin in the air was also making fake moves. After receiving the report from Liu Cuigang, Le Yiqin immediately realized that the Japanese fighter jets from the two brigades were coming.  He was definitely not here to fight, but to reconnoiter the situation in the air. Well, let's take advantage of the situation. Therefore, he ordered the fleet to turn towards Inchon in the existing airspace, creating the illusion of pursuing the Japanese fleet.

    "Reporting to the commander, the Japanese mixed fleet changed its course again five minutes ago. The target is still Mokpo airspace. The two previous groups of Japanese fighter jets returned to the formation, and the two groups of Japanese fighter jets in the direction of Gunsan continued to fly to Gunsan.  Heading to the open sea!" a staff officer ran over to report.

    Dong Ningxuan and He Zhijun looked at each other and felt relieved. Liu Cuigang smiled softly and said, "Okay, I will report this situation to Commander Le immediately. Next, it is about escorting the fighter group!"

    Liu Cuigang finished giving instructions to his staff, and said with a smile to He Zhijun and Dong Ningxuan: "Two chiefs of staff, don't worry now, let's do it!"

    Dong Ningxuan felt very uncomfortable. In fact, He Zhijun was not the same. The two chiefs of staff made wrong judgments when the enemy situation changed. Strictly speaking, this was a dereliction of duty. "Commander, I am very ashamed. Just now.  . . . ¡± Dong Ningxuan said without sitting down.

    "Okay, don't blame yourself! It's normal for you to make such a judgment! There's nothing right or wrong! There's no need to review it. In fact, there is a basic truth here. The little devil only has so many combat aircraft, no matter how hard you try,  He will eventually choose a direction to attack. Where will it be? Mokpo!  You won¡¯t go to the abandoned place, right?¡±

    "Actually, many strategies used on the ground battlefield can be used in the sky. In war, apart from strength, it is nothing more than using methods and strategies. In the end, we will see who is smarter. Chief of Staff He, your Commander Le, in  During the Indo-China Peninsula, division commanders used strategies frequently when commanding ground battles!" Liu Cuigang, with a smile on his face, easily pointed out the shortcomings of Dong Ningxuan and He Zhijun's narrow battlefield thinking.

    After receiving the notification from Qingdao¡¯s ground control, Le Yiqin grinned, ¡°It¡¯s interesting, the little devil came up with a trick that he thought was dazzling, and followedWhere is your daughter?  When I was beating up your Army, Navy and Air Force in Indochina, you bastard, didn't you know how to take a nap in that nook?  "
