Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the North Yellow Sea of ??China, a Japanese naval fleet protected thousands of troop carriers and sailed on the choppy seas. For fear of being attacked by the independent division fleet or aviation, the entire fleet and troop carrier formations implemented  The lights were off, and on the dark sea, these warships and merchant ships looked like coffins. Not far from them, there were several submarines quietly following behind.

    In the center of the Korean Peninsula, at the Incheon Forward Command Post of the Independence Division Aviation Force, three senior generals and a large group of staff officers were studying combat plans in front of a large chart in the war room. One of them was Tang Qiuquan, commander of the Navy Fleet of the Independence Division.  The lieutenant general and the other two people were Liu Cuigang and Le Yiqin, the two commanders of the aviation force.

    After receiving the telegram from the division command, Tang Qiuquan rushed to the Inchon forward command of the aviation force overnight. This was a coordinated operation between the air and sea forces, with Tang Qiuquan as the main one. The general battle plan was already in place, and the rest was a matter of details.

    Tang Qiuquan looked at Liu Cuigang and said with a smile: "Cui Gang, do your aviation forces have any specific requirements on how to fight this battle?"

    Liu Cuigang replied calmly: "The division commander's order made it very clear that the navy fleet will be the main force and our aviation force will cooperate in the fight. The division commander's intention is to take a fancy to the thousands of merchant ships owned by the little devil. This is a large piece."  What a fat man!"

    Le Yiqin took over and said: "Here's the problem. If the division commander doesn't have this request, it would be easy to dispatch bombers and fighter jets, and there will be a burst of explosions to ensure that before the little devil's fleet enters the Bohai Bay, everything will turn into ashes."  A pile of scrap metal at the bottom of the sea!¡±

    Tang Qiuquan laughed loudly and said: "It is not difficult to just deal with the escort fleet composed of more than fifty old warships of the Japanese Navy. I have ordered all the warships in the Qingdao base of the fleet to prepare for battle. In addition, in the Mokpo waters of the Korean Peninsula  The fleet can also be put into battle at any time. The problem now is to focus on solving the problem of the Japanese escort fleet. This depends on the opinions of your two commanders! "

    Liu Cuigang thought for a while and said, "Commander Tang, how do you want to fight? Deal with the Japanese naval escort fleet. Leave it to our aviation force!"

    Tang Qiuquan said concisely and concisely: "After entering the Liaodong Bay waters, the fleet will be divided into two parts. They will attack from the Shandong Peninsula base and the Mokpo waters of the Korean Peninsula respectively, cutting off the retreat route of the Japanese naval escort fleet. Capture these thousands of Japanese merchant ships. Aviation  The mission is to annihilate the escort aircraft group, preferably in the airspace of Liaodong Bay. I estimate that the Japanese escort aircraft group should adopt a relay escort tactic, which means that the escort aircraft group must be in the air at all times!"

    Liu Cuigang glanced at Le Yiqin and said: "Yiqin and I also thought about it this way. This is also the only way for the Japanese escort fleet to ensure that it will not be attacked by the air. Therefore, the aviation tactics are to use Inchon on the Korean Peninsula.  Airports, mainly Weihai and Qingdao Airports in Shandong Peninsula, Dalian and Wafangdian Airports in Liaodong Peninsula, and field airports around the Bohai Bay, are divided into four echelons to intercept and kill the Japanese escort aircraft group! "

    "While the fleet launched its attack, the four echelons also launched an attack at the same time, using the Jeju Strait, the northern Yellow Sea, the Bohai Bay, and the Liaodong Bay as the combat airspace. That is to say, from Japan's mainland Kyushu Island to the Liaodong Bay, superior forces were dispatched.  Carry out an interception across the board!¡±

    "Good!" Tang Qiuquan praised, "My command position is in Incheon!"

    Le Yiqin said: "I divided the work with Cuigang. Cuigang stayed in Incheon to command and was responsible for the air combat in the Jeju Strait and the northern part of the Yellow Sea. I flew to Tianjin overnight to command the operations in the Bohai Bay and Liaodong Bay. Commander Tang, look at this  Can become?"

    Tang Qiuquan joked: "It's all planned. If that doesn't work, the two generals of the aviation force will go into battle in person. I estimate that this time, the Japanese not only sent a fleet and thousands of merchant ships as a gift, I'm afraid they also  Get on hundreds of planes!¡±

    Everyone in the war room laughed heartily. At this time, a naval officer walked up to Rear Admiral Xin Xiguo, chief of staff of the fleet, and handed him a telegram. After reading it, Xin Xiguo whispered to the officer  After a few words, he handed the telegram to Tang Qiuquan.

    Tang Qiuquan looked at the telegram and smiled, "I received a report from a submarine monitoring the whereabouts of the Japanese naval escort fleet and troop transport fleet. Just over half an hour ago, the Japanese escort fleet and troop transport fleet suddenly accelerated their speed. The target was still  In the direction of Liaodong Bay, it seems that the Japanese still have to penetrate the pocket prepared by the division commander! "

    "Okay!" Le Yiqin slammed the table and said loudly: "The little devil is here to die in a hurry. If we don't help them, we can't bear the kindness of the little devil! I have an idea, in the Japanese naval fleet and transportation  In the past few days before the warship formation arrived at Liaodong Bay, the aviation force dispatched a small fleet of aircraft to fight with the Japanese escort aircraft group. Only in this way did it appear thatIs it normal!  Otherwise, when they arrive at our doorstep and haven¡¯t made any move yet, don¡¯t scare away the little devil, the cooked duck will fly away!  "

    Tang Qiuquan clapped his hands and praised: "I agree. Who said Yiqin is not delicate, brave enough but not resourceful? It is this piece of advice that lays the foundation for victory in this battle. The specific tactics to be adopted and how to fight are decided by the two of you.  I won¡¯t interfere. Let¡¯s adjourn the meeting and return to our posts. All naval and air forces participating in the war will enter a state of combat readiness!¡±

    Three days later, the Japanese naval escort fleet and troop carrier formation had entered the Bohai Sea. The fleet commander, Rear Admiral Hiramiya, stood on the command tower of the fleet flagship "Naniwa" and looked at the rolling white waves of the Bohai Sea. He felt worried in his heart.  There was no reduction at all. From this moment on, the fleet had entered the hinterland of the independent division's defense zone.

    The escort fleet adopts a "V" escort formation, with eight large-tonnage and powerful destroyers at the front, more than 30 kilometers away from the main force of the fleet. There are fifteen warships on each side of the left and right wings, forming a formation of troop carriers.  , tightly protecting his flagship in the middle, he led the remaining warships and sailed in formation with the troop carriers. For the sake of safety, the escort warships on the left and right wings were placed twenty kilometers away.

    Despite this, Rear Admiral Heigong still has no confidence at all. The biggest weakness of the escort fleet is that there are no aircraft carriers and no carrier-based aircraft. Looking at the escort fighter groups above the head in a neat combat formation, Rear Admiral Hengmiya has no clue.  sense of security.

    Major General Heimiya didn't have a good impression of these guys from the Army Aviation Corps at all. In name, he was the supreme commander of the fleet and the escort aviation fleet, but in actual operation, that was not the case at all. The Army Aviation Corps  The unruly guys don't obey their own orders at all, they just do their own thing, and they are arrogant and often make their own decisions, which makes them angry when they think about it.

    During the past three days, the fleet had not been sailing peacefully. From time to time, small groups of fighter jets from the independent division aviation came out to harass them. Although they were repelled by the escorting fighter groups each time, in the eyes of Major General Heimiya, this was not a good thing.  Son, he has smelled the conspiracy.

    The reason is very simple. According to the information obtained by Major General Ping Gong, in the area around the Bohai Bay alone, the Independent Division Northern Flying Group has no less than a thousand combat aircraft, all of which are dispatched. Two wings of one hundred and three  The escort scale of more than ten fighter jets is obviously not enough, but why does the independent division aviation only dispatch a small formation of a dozen or at most thirty fighter jets each time to carry out continuous harassment?

    If there was no conspiracy, even if he killed Major General Heng Gong, he would not believe it. Commander Heng Gong¡¯s own judgment was reported to the escort formation commander Major General Nakatani, reminding the escort fighter formation to pay attention to the situation at the independent division aviation field airport around the Bohai Bay.  .

    But Major General Nakatani's answer almost made Major General Heimiya vomit blood. "Hiiramiya-kun, maybe you have a phobia of Chinese aviation, right? In three days, I escorted the fighter formation and repulsed several independent division aviation."  In ten attacks, I shot down three enemy planes without any casualties. I also pursued the escaping Independent Division fighter group deep into the airspace from Bohai Bay to Jiaozhou Bay, but I never saw what Heigong-kun said.  Independent Division Aviation Group!"

    "If it weren't for the Army Aviation Department, which had strict orders to escort Heigong-kun's fleet, I could have commanded the headquarters' aircraft fleet to conduct air strikes on the independent division aviation field airports in North China or the Shandong Peninsula!"

    The implication is that your fleet of Heimiya has delayed the opportunity of our Nakatani Air Force to make meritorious service. Regarding Major General Nakatani, Major General Henomiya would say "arrogant and ignorant!" These Army Air Force pilots have always been in the mainland.  When carrying out air defense missions, I had no air combat experience at all, and I had never fought against the independent division aviation. I felt that I was invincible!

    "I really don't know where this guy Zhonggu's confidence comes from. If he carefully studies the performance of the Northern Flying Group of the Independent Division Aviation Force in recent years, and then look at the empire that fell into the hands of the famous aerial warrior Liu Cuigang  The Army and Navy Air Force, I'm afraid, he won't be so arrogant!" Major General Ping Gong thought viciously.

    Originally, the army and navy were just donkeys that couldn't be tied to the same trough. It was not good for him to command the army and navy to escort. This guy Nakatani was not convinced. He had made it clear. Major General Heimiya believed that he had fulfilled his responsibility, regardless of that guy Nakatani.  How much do you want, just maintain the strength of two fighter wings above the fleet and troop transport formations!

    Under constant harassment by the independent division aviation, the Japanese naval escort fleet crossed the Liaodong Peninsula without any danger. In one day, it will reach the point where the Kwantung Army will evacuate to the western Liaoning area of ??Manchuria. This frightening voyage is finally coming to an end.  .

    What makes Major General Heigong very dissatisfied is that the Kanto??This bunch of cowards didn't even seize a single port. Where could thousands of troop transport ships dock?
