"Except for anti-aircraft guns and Zero fighter jets, everything else is agreed." Ishihara Waner replied truthfully.
"By the way, why do you need so many anti-aircraft guns for the North Korean army? Is it for air defense in Pyongyang and Seoul?" Yongtian Tieshan looked at Shi Yuan suspiciously.
"Of course not," Ishihara said with a wry smile: "The mainland is about to be abandoned, so how can we care about North Korea? The North Korean army wants these heavy anti-aircraft guns to deal with tanks. According to intelligence, the Chinese have at least assembled in Manchuria 10 armored divisions, with about 4000 tanks and assault artillery! Among them, there should be 600 No. 600 heavy tanks, and 97 No. 57 assault guns with combat effectiveness no less than No. 50 tanks. Our Zero assault tank The Type 37 assault tank can't deal with it at all, and the 75mm, [-]mm and [-]mm anti-aircraft guns equipped by the infantry can't be hit either. The only way is to use heavy anti-aircraft guns above [-]mm."
"Oh, that's right." Nagata Tieshan nodded. He vaguely remembered that the Germans seemed to use 88mm anti-aircraft guns to deal with tanks in the European campaign, and the main guns equipped with the No. 88 tank and No. 1000 assault gun were also 300mm. Modified anti-aircraft guns.He thought for a while, and then said: "There is definitely no way to provide 50 heavy anti-aircraft guns. At most, 75 can be given... However, the strength of the troops can still be increased. I will give you 175 newly formed divisions, with about 200 people. The total strength of the army can reach [-] million! In addition, you can also approve the recruitment of North Korean volunteers on the spot, let’s get the strength to [-] million first.”
"200 million!" Ishihara smiled silently for a moment, then nodded slightly. "There are 200 million people who should not be easily defeated by the Chinese, but..."
Chapter 0949 Korean War ([-]) The Emperor's Southern Tour
"But what?" Yongtian Tieshan glanced at Shi Yuan, who was hesitating, "Speak quickly if you have something to say."
"Hayi." Shi Yuan nodded, and his tone suddenly became solemn: "North Korea is a peninsula after all, and the mountains are densely covered with narrow and long terrain, which is not conducive to the entry and exit of mechanized troops. If the Chinese army attacks from north to south, the North Korean army will always be able to Resistance, but in case the Chinese take advantage of the sea and land on the west coast of North Korea..." At this point, he turned his head and glanced at the Secretary of the Navy at the side.
"The main ports on the west coast of North Korea have built coastal defense forts, and the navy has deployed 500 kamikaze aircraft on the Korean peninsula, which is enough to ensure safety." Minister of the Navy Shimoda Shigetaro replied: "If the North Korean army is still not at ease, then The Navy can also deploy the newly formed Yamato Special Attack Force to the Korean peninsula."
"Yamato special attack force!?" Ishihara Wanji looked at Shimada with a puzzled face. There are many "special attack forces" in the Japanese army and navy, but most of them are stupid and worthless.
"This Yamato special attack force is not simple. The weapon they use is a manned missile! It is the P-35 manned missile that annihilated the US-British combined fleet in the Bermuda sea battle. This missile has a speed of up to 650 kilometers per hour and can be filled with 500 kilograms High explosives, driven by a special attack team to ram enemy warships! It feels invincible in naval battles. With this kind of weapon, perhaps the empire can reverse its decline, and there is no need for the relocation plan at all."
Speaking of this, Shintaro Shimada was full of confidence again, he smiled and said: "Hitler, the head of state of Germany, has agreed to provide the Reich with the production technology of the P-35 missile, and will also provide us with a batch of ready-made missiles... ...The cargo has already been shipped from Hamburg, and it will be delivered before the end of the year, and combat effectiveness will be formed by the end of February next year at the latest."
"But what should we do before the end of February next year?" Ishihara Waner muttered to himself. If the Chinese army really wants to land on the west coast of North Korea, it should be impossible to wait until the end of February next year.
"It is unlikely that the Chinese will land on the west coast of North Korea before the end of February next year, because they are preparing to attack the Philippine Islands and Java Island." Nagata Tieshan smiled and took over the topic.He said: "During this period, the Chinese have been dispatching planes and warships to attack targets in the Philippine Islands. The intention of landing has become very obvious. Both the General Staff and the Navy Command believe that the Chinese Navy's current attack direction is the Philippine Islands. And Java Island, the purpose is to open up the communication line of Australia."
Ishihara thought for a while, then nodded. This judgment is very reasonable. The Philippine Islands and the Japanese East Indies are like two huge chains, blocking the Chinese Navy from the Pacific Ocean and blocking China’s The line of communication with Western Australia, so this direction should be another main direction for the Chinese to attack.
"Ishihara-kun," Yongtian Tieshan pointed to North Korea's west coast and smiled at Ishihara: "Although it is unlikely that the Chinese will use the main force of their navy on the Korean peninsula before solving the Philippine Islands, the North Korean army still has to do what is necessary. Take precautions. Incheon, Gunsan and other major ports must deploy heavy troops. In addition, strong reserves must be deployed in Pyongyang, Seoul, Busan and other places, and they must always be ready to counterattack the Chinese landing forces!"
Ishihara smiled and snapped to attention, just when he was about to say some beautiful words such as failure or success, a piercing air raid siren sounded suddenly!
……
The music played by the dragon flute was low and sad, as if it was telling the desolate sorrow of an empire that was about to collapse. Hirohito, Emperor Showa of Japan, played this song "Qianqiu Music" intently, ignoring the sound coming from outside the palace. The faint roar.Empress Yoshiko and Imperial Minister Koichi Kido knelt beside him respectfully.
This is an ancient piece of music inherited from the Japanese Court Gagaku. Gagaku was introduced from China during the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Hirohito’s grandfather, Emperor Meiji, liked this ancient music very much. In his later years, he even established a performance in the court. Gagaku's band, this song "Thousand Autumn Music" is one of Emperor Meiji's favorite songs. Although Emperor Hirohito didn't like Gagaku very much, he thought he was the reincarnation of Emperor Meiji, and he still worked hard to learn to play this song with the dragon flute. music.But at this time, this originally melodious ancient music was played by Hirohito very sadly, just like the national destiny of the Japanese Empire.
Empress Liangzi quietly glanced at the sky in the distance that was reddened by the flames. Tonight, Chinese bombers visited the Japanese capital again, and the scale was larger than the previous ones. According to the report of the palace minister Koichi Kido, there was As many as 200!Moreover, these planes did not fly from Shanghai and Shandong Peninsula in the west, but from Vladivostok in the north of the Japanese archipelago.Vladivostok is only a little over 1000 kilometers away from Tokyo, Japan. The combat radius of medium bombers flying from there can cover Tokyo. It seems that there will be these nasty bombers dropping bombs every night in the future... This Tokyo is really unbearable .
Internal Minister Koichi Kido kept wiping his sweat. Just when the air raid siren sounded, he hurried to the palace where the emperor was, and respectfully invited the descendant of the god to take shelter in the air-raid shelter he had just dug.But Yuren didn't know what was going on, and he played the flute here!Chinese bombs don't have eyes. If... it falls into the palace, I don't know if Amaterasu will bless her descendants?
Just when Kido Koichi was thinking wildly, the sound of Hirohito's flute stopped abruptly, and there was only a distant roar in the whole palace. After a long time, Empress Liangzi and Minister Kidouchi slapped a few times. But the emperor shook his head and sighed: "You didn't listen carefully!" He smiled wryly again: "I played the tune all wrong."
Empress Liangzi frowned, and said softly, "The violent (referring to China) plane is getting closer and closer to the palace, Your Majesty should go to the basement for a while."
Kido Koichi also echoed loudly: "Your Majesty's safety is related to the national system, and there is absolutely no room for loss. Please ask Your Majesty to stay away for a while."
Emperor Hirohito stood up silently. He didn't wear a military uniform in the palace, but a large and gorgeous kimono. The emperor walked into the courtyard. Instead of looking at the bleak autumn scenery of the garden, he looked up at the distance as if it was burning. The sky, eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"I don't know how many civilians will lose their homes tonight. Those Chinese are so cruel. It's really hard to imagine that they were once a country of ancient civilization and etiquette." Yuren murmured.
"They have been ruled by the barbaric Tatars for more than 300 years, and they have long forgotten their traditional culture. China is no longer China." Minister Kido replied.
"What about Japan?" Hirohito's eyes flashed, a little more helpless: "If I leave, will Japan still be the same? Will I come back one day?"
Kido Yuki's eye circles turned red slightly, and he was about to cry. Finally, he finally managed to stabilize his voice: "Your Majesty, as long as you cheer up, the Great Japanese Empire will not sink."
Yuren smiled faintly, and turned his head: "Cheer up?... I'm about to abandon my country and flee, so why cheer up! Although Ming Sizong of China is the king of subjugation, they also know that the king is dead, but I but to..."
Koichi Kido saw that Emperor Hirohito seemed to be backing off, so he quickly winked at Empress Ryoko, and Ryoko walked up to her husband, and said softly: "Your Majesty, what you are doing now is just in case something happens. It’s all about saving some vitality for the empire. The empire still has 600 million troops, 800 million reserve soldiers, and an invincible combined fleet.
Yuren touched his wife's shoulder lightly, and sighed: "I also understand these reasons, everything I do now is just in case... not only I want to be in case, those big chaebols, big bureaucrats, There are royal ministers, everyone should take precautions." At this point, he looked at Kido and asked, "Mr. Kido, how is the arrangement for the southern tour going? When can we leave?"
Koichi Kido thought for a while: "In order to avoid the destruction of the submarine, His Majesty's southern patrol will be conducted in secret, and the combined fleet will arrange the battleship Nagato and Mutsu as His Majesty's ship, and will also dispatch Ryujo, Ryukaze, Xiangfeng and other three aircraft carriers, two Miao high-level heavy cruisers, three Nagara-class light cruisers and fifteen destroyers escorted. In addition, there will be thirty ships of "pioneers" and important supplies to New Japan State together with His Majesty ... It is only said that these warships are escorting the transport fleet.
The entire journey is about 10000 kilometers, and it takes about 11 days to sail. It is planned to depart from Yokohama Port on December 12 and arrive at New Tokyo Port on December 11.The New Japan Garrison and the New Japan State Governor's Mansion have prepared a secret residence for His Majesty, and a substitute has also been arranged here in Tokyo to ensure nothing goes wrong. "
Hirohito looked up to the sky, thought for a while and then asked: "Is there any progress with Yosuke Matsuoka? Has the Russian Empress agreed to mediate?" Before Kido Koko could reply, he ordered to himself: "The battlefield We must go all out, arrange the back road quietly, and pay close attention to diplomatic matters. It is useless for Hitler to intervene, so try the Russian empress... I heard that the empress has an extraordinary relationship with the Chinese marshal, so This line must be connected, even if it is temporarily unusable. Remember, the homeland is the root of the 7000 million Japanese citizens (who no longer want Koreans). In case North Korea fails, preserving the homeland is still the first choice. New Japan It's just a last resort."
At the end, Emperor Hirohito's voice seemed to be tinged with anticipation.
……
If this autumn in Tokyo is full of the bleakness before the fall of the empire, then the autumn in Northeast China is full of a beautiful vision of the future millennium empire and an optimistic atmosphere for the prospect of war.
Almost everyone believes that a new oriental order belonging to China will soon be presented to the whole world.
Luo Yaoguo's arrival seemed to be a signal.Countless tanks, planes, artillery, various armored vehicles, and battalions of infantry rushed to the north bank of the Yalu River through the Beining Railway, the Middle East Railway, and the sea transportation line along the coast of North China.
The eastern part of Liaoning Province, the southern part of Jilin Province, and the southern part of Binhai Province have become a sea of military uniforms.Signs of military areas and unit numbers were erected everywhere. The gendarmerie of the Beiyang Front Army, the security forces of the Liaoning and Jilin Provinces, and various military personnel, the police patrolled the area day and night.There are guard posts set up by military personnel on various roads, bridges, ports, and ancient city gates. Anyone who enters or exits this area will be subject to the strictest checks.However, it is precisely because of such strict security that everyone knows that the main force of the Chinese National Defense Forces has assembled to the north of the Yalu River, waiting for the weather to turn cold. The Japanese army for many years was completely driven into the sea!
The core of these National Defense Forces is the Second Panzer Army, which showed its talents in the anti-Soviet campaign. The grenadier division has a total of four armored divisions and two armored grenadier divisions, with more than 2000 tanks and assault artillery!The commander of this group army is Luo Yaoguo's favorite student, general Xu Yunlong who graduated from the first phase of Whampoa, the first phase of armored forces, and the third phase of Lu University.The commander of the Third Armored Army is also General Roach who graduated from the first phase of Whampoa, the first phase of armored forces, and the third phase of Lu University.The commander of the Fourth Armored Army is Lieutenant General Qiu Qingquan who made great achievements in the Anti-Soviet War.The commanders of the next four armored divisions and two armored grenadier divisions are Zhang Lingfu, Dai Anlan, Luo Youlun, Wang Yaowu, Shi Jue and Fang Xianjue. The chief of staff of the group army is Liao Yaoxiang, who graduated from the seventh phase of Huangpu major general.All are elite figures of the Chinese National Defense Forces.
In addition to the famous First Armored Army, there are 14 army numbers, 28 army numbers, and 94 infantry divisions, grenadier divisions, airborne divisions, mountain divisions, and colonial divisions; An armored group army, the Chinese Defense Force has concentrated a full 100 divisions of powerful army troops north of the border between China and South Korea (referring to the Republic of Korea, China no longer recognizes that the Korean Peninsula belongs to Japan), and the theoretical total strength exceeds 160 million!
Every Chinese officer and soldier here (probably excluding the colonial officers and soldiers) is now full of enthusiasm.They have the best equipment, have received the best training, and some have accumulated valuable practical experience in this world war, and there is also a country with the largest territory, the largest population, the most abundant resources, and the largest industry in the world. Backed by a powerful imperialist motherland that can rank third.They are destined to be the victor in the next big battle to determine the dominance of the East of the world. How can Japan, which is said to be the overlord of the East eight years ago, but now completely weakened, stop such a mighty army!
A fleet of cars was galloping on the road leading to Shenyang City, and the flag of the Marshal of the National Defense Forces with a huge golden star was fluttering in the autumn wind.The logo of the Marshal of the National Defense Forces is different from the five general stars of the Marshals of the Sea, Army, and Air Force, but a huge gold star. In the Chinese National Defense Forces, only Luo Yaoguo and Chiang Kai-shek have this rank, which is also the highest rank in the National Defense Forces.And Chiang Kai-shek is still working as a military advisor to Gandhi in India and is not in the country, so the owner of this convoy can only be Luo Yaoguo.
After he came to Shenyang, he didn't point fingers at Bai Chongxi's headquarters, and he didn't even stay in Shenyang City for a few days.The pair of Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren, and the three atomic bombs that were secretly transported to Shenyang made him [-]% sure of the outcome of this war... Well, of course, Luo Yaoguo has the right to decide when to use the atomic bomb. Besides, he didn't care much about the affairs of the entire Beiyang Front Army. Accompanied by Air Force Commander-in-Chief Li Shun-en and Liaoning Provincial Security Commander Hou Jingru, he kept inspecting around Shenyang, and at the same time attracted the attention of everyone on both sides.
Outside the car window, it was already pitch black. What Luo Yaoguo went to inspect today was not the military barracks, but the huge Anshan Iron and Steel Plant. This steel plant was invested by China Iron and Steel with more than 15 billion French currency. It took 8 years to build a Chinese unit. Ranked No. 1940 in terms of factory scale. In 550, the planned steel production of Anshan Iron and Steel Works was as high as 1939 million tons!Almost equivalent to 2.5 times the Japanese steel production in [-]!
Recalling the huge factory like a small city that he saw during the day today, Luo Yaoguo leaned on the back of the car seat with some pride, smiled and said to Li Shunen beside him: "This battle between us and Japan In the final analysis, war is still a competition of comprehensive national strength. We naturally have an absolute advantage in this respect. However, Japan is also a country that has initially realized industrialization, and since the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese government has long promoted militarism education in the country, making their The people are more able to bear the pain and casualties of war, so we have no choice but to resort to strategic bombing to weaken their industrial strength and destroy their war potential... Fourth brother, how are the results of your air force these two days? "
Li Shunen looked a little dignified, as if the effect of bombing Japan was not ideal.He shook his head slightly and said: "Our air force is actually a tactical air force. The bombers that are mainly equipped are A-4 Thunderhawk dive bombers and medium bombers such as He-111 and Ju-88, which are used to carry out tactical bombing missions. They can barely Only the Fw-200 is known as a heavy bomber. However, this aircraft is still too small in size and does not carry a large amount of ammunition. It is difficult to meet the needs of strategic bombing missions. What makes me even more troublesome is that our medium and heavy bombers The number is obviously insufficient, there are only more than 1500 planes, and they are scattered on three battlefields, and now there are less than 500 planes that can be used to bomb the Japanese mainland."
Chapter 0950 The Korean War ([-])
Luo Yaoguo frowned: "Why, aren't 500 bombers enough?"
Li Shunen smiled bitterly, nodded and said: "Third Brother, in terms of the number of aircraft, 500 bombers is a lot, but in terms of the amount of bombs loaded, it is not much at all.
Among our more than 500 bombers, there are 200 Fw-155H, which can barely be regarded as heavy bombers, with a maximum bomb load of only 4.5 tons; medium bombers He-111 and Ju-88 each have about 180. The performance of the two is relatively close, and the maximum ammunition load is about 3 tons.However, flying from Shanghai to Kyushu, or from Vladivostok to Tokyo has a range of about 1000 kilometers. This distance is already the limit for a medium-sized bomber. Because more fuel needs to be loaded, the number of bombs carried is greatly reduced... Fw The -200H can only carry 2.5 tons of bombs, and the He-111 and Ju-88 can only carry 1 ton of bombs. Even if more than 500 aircraft are dispatched at the same time, they can only carry 560 tons of bombs.
Moreover, the Air Force still lacks long-range fighter jets with excellent air combat performance. Our Fw-190 has a limited range and cannot reach the Japanese mainland at all. Only the Bf-110 can barely reach it.However, the air combat performance of this twin-engine heavy fighter is not satisfactory. If it is dispatched during the day, it will definitely not be the opponent of the Japanese Zero fighter...so our air strikes can only be carried out at night.The accuracy of night bombing is really not guaranteed.Starting from the end of October, the Air Force will dispatch at least 10 bombers to attack the Yawata Iron and Steel Works in Kyushu, Japan and the Kure Army Port in Hiroshima Prefecture every night as long as the weather conditions permit.After bombing for more than 300 days, thousands of tons of bombs were dropped, but it seemed to have no effect.As for the effect of bombing Japanese cities, the effect is even worse, third brother, as you know, earthquakes are frequent in the Japanese archipelago, so most of their houses are made of wood, which is easy to destroy and faster to build and repair... Doubt that those small bungalows we went all the way to blow up are worth the gas money and bomb money? "
Speaking of this, Li Shunen quietly leaned into Luo Yaoguo's ear, and said in a low voice: "Third brother, why don't you allow me to use that atomic bomb? The report said that this thing is very powerful. If you come to Tokyo for such a sudden attack , this war may be over!"
Luo Yaoguo frowned, and was about to refuse Li Shunen's request, but Hou Jingru, the Security Commander of Liaoning Province, who was sitting face to face with Luo Yaoguo and Li Shunen, opened his mouth first with a surprised expression on his face.
"What! Fenggong (Li Shunen), are you kidding me? An atomic bomb can end the war? These little Japanese are stubborn!"
"Xin Lang (Hou Jingru), do you think I'm joking?" Li Shunen rolled his eyes at Hou Jingru who interrupted randomly, and said with a sneer, "This kind of atomic bomb is not a bomb in the traditional sense. As far as I can imagine, as long as one bomb explodes in the core area of Tokyo... Hehe, tens of thousands of people can always be killed! I don't believe that Little Japan can really bear such a loss and not surrender!"
"One bomb can kill hundreds of thousands of people..." Hou Jingru naturally had heard about the atomic bomb for a long time, and had also specially collected relevant information.However, he didn't believe the rumor that a bomb destroyed a city at all, but when he heard such words from the commander-in-chief of the Air Force of the National Defense Forces today, he couldn't help but not believe it!Thinking that the Kuomintang reactionaries possessed such a sharp secret weapon, cold sweat broke out unconsciously on his forehead.
