Age of Rebirth

At [-]:[-] in the morning, Le Yiqin jumped into his fighter plane energetically, led his wingmen, and was the first to rush into the dark night sky. Another air raid on Tokyo, he was dispatched with all his strength. Even Major General He Zhijun, the chief of staff of the Southern Aviation Group, also flew fighter jets with the team. The roar of the engine shook the salty and humid air.

On the sea off the southern coast of Japan, Admiral Tang Qiuquan, the commander of the Southern Fleet, put down his binoculars and looked at Miyake Island, which had become a sea of ​​flames. , the current Miyake Island has been razed to the ground, and one eye at the forefront of Japan's mainland air defense has been knocked out. Of course, the Japanese can rebuild it, but that will be a matter of the future!

Rear Admiral Xin Xiguo, Chief of Staff of the Fleet, walked into the command cabin, "Commander, I received a telegram from the Ogasawara Islands base. Commander Le has commanded the mixed fleet to take off!"

"Okay!" Tang Qiuquan laughed and said, "Let's also join in the fun, so that the Japanese emperor can't sleep, and order the communication office to keep in touch with Commander Le's fleet at all times, so as to ensure that our carrier-based aircraft units move in sync with them!"

At about [-] o'clock in the morning, the mixed fleet commanded by Le Yiqin and the mixed fleet of the Southern Fleet's carrier-based aircraft converged in the airspace of Miyake Island, and then formed again to form several echelons, more than [-] fighters and bombers, with a murderous aura , Blinding the sky and rushing towards Tokyo, the capital of Japan, which is basically powerless to fight back.

Not long after the huge fleet passed over Miyake Island, it was discovered by land-based radar off the coast of Japan, and alarm telegrams were sent one after another.One after another, the alarm calls were made to the headquarters of the southern defense zone of Honshu Island.But the commander, Lieutenant General Ono, and the air defense commander, Major General Takamura, committed suicide by cutting open their stomachs in the evening.The homeland defense command has not had time to send a new commander to the post, and the headquarters is like a group of dragons without a leader.

The officer on duty didn't know who to report to. The independent division's aviation group was approaching, alarms were ringing frequently, and black clouds were overwhelming the city. In the huge southern defense zone headquarters, there was no leader and chaos. This is a critical moment.Assuming the responsibility of command means taking great risks. Who wants to pick up hot potatoes? A lesson learned from the past. When the bloody corpses of Lieutenant General Ohno and Major General Takamura were carried out of the headquarters, all the senior officers witnessed it with their own eyes. up.

In the end, it was the senior staff officer with the rank of major general who was the first to enter the still room of Lieutenant General Ohno and Major General Takamura.Probably because of his background, he was recommended by the big guys, the only thing this major general's senior staff officer can do.It is to issue the air defense alarm to be sounded in the whole city of Tokyo, the ground air defense forces are ready to shoot, and others.I can only stare blankly.

The shrill siren resounded through the Tokyo night sky in the early morning.Emperor Hirohito, who suffered from severe insomnia, just lay down.Before closing his eyes for 3 minutes, he jumped up from the dragon bed due to the sound of the alarm. At this time, the door of the bedroom was opened vigorously, and more than a dozen palace attendants could not help but set up His Majesty the Emperor and ran to the air-raid shelter. In desperation, Almost broke the arms and legs of His Majesty the emaciated emperor!

After Tokyo was bombed again, the military attache of the palace received a call from Prince Zairen, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Home Defense Command. His Royal Highness gave a stern warning on the phone: "No matter what the situation is, make sure that the Emperor Your Majesty's safety will always come first!"

When he arrived in the air-raid shelter, Emperor Hirohito regained his breath. He didn't blame these attendants, knowing that they were loyal to protect the lord. He was angry that the majestic capital of the Imperial Japanese Empire was bombed by Chinese aviation in one day. , what are the people at the Southern Defense Headquarters doing?

"Immediately call the Southern Defense Headquarters of Honshu Island and convey my oral order to let their commanders and air defense commanders come to see me immediately!" Emperor Hirohito ordered in a cold tone, full of anger.

An aide who led the team mumbled and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I have received news that after Tokyo was bombed by the Chinese aircraft fleet this morning, Lieutenant General Ohno, Commander of the Southern Defense Headquarters of Honshu Island, and Major General Takamura, Commander of Air Defense, Knowing that the guilt is inevitable, he cut himself open to apologize, and now, the new commander has not yet arrived!"

"Death is not worth the crime!" Emperor Hirohito broke out completely, and roared at the top of his voice: "They have failed me and the people of Tokyo, the Great Japanese Empire, and let the planes of the inferior Chinese people act recklessly in my capital! Even if they die, there is no redemption. It's a crime!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The artillery rang, and an attendant who was observing the situation at the entrance of the air-raid shelter turned around and shouted: "Your Majesty, our anti-aircraft guns have begun to fight back!"

After venting the anger in his heart, Emperor Hirohito seemed to have all the strength taken away from his body. He turned a deaf ear to the attendant's shout of surprise, and fell into a state of unconsciousness. The successive blows stimulated him too much. .

After the air defense siren sounded, the lights of the entire downtown area of ​​Tokyo went out one after another, and the city fell into deathly darkness, but this did not prevent the Le Yiqin fleet from bombing Tokyo, because there was no specific bombing area, so the mixed fleet The bombs must be accurately dropped on the target. Therefore, the bombing height of the bomber group can be completely outside the range of the Japanese ground anti-aircraft artillery fire.

Le Yiqin was driving a fighter plane, circling high in the sky, and saw the Japanese anti-aircraft shells rising from the ground like fireworks, which were particularly eye-catching in the dark night. He was immediately amused, and gave a very simple order: "Attention all aircraft groups, bomber groups, throw bombs on the air defense positions of the little devils, fighter groups are free to choose targets, and shoot at low altitude!"

Heavy aerial bombs were dropped one after another, and the dark downtown area of ​​Tokyo suddenly burst into flames. The sound of explosions echoed in the air continuously. The whole Tokyo was trembling with the sound of explosions, and a fire was burning somewhere When I got up, the flames illuminated the night sky, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and burnt. A dozen fighter jets from the independent division flew over the palace at low altitude, and rained bullets, hitting the building with smoke and dust.

More than half an hour later, the bomber group of the Independent Division poured all the bombs and began to form formation over Tokyo. Le Yiqin felt as comfortable as eating honey. There is no easier bombing than this. The fighter planes soared Outside the range of the anti-aircraft guns, there is no attack from the little devil's fighter jets. Bombing the little devil's capital Tokyo is as easy as hanging out in the back garden of your own home.

Le Yiqin suddenly burst into laughter, and the suffocation accumulated in the first battle in Shizuoka was swept away. He drove the fighter plane into the sky, looked at the eastern sky, faintly revealing a touch of fish belly, and ordered: "Formation immediately, start Returning! Deputy Master Tang has prepared good wine and food, waiting for us to go back!"

Leaving the sky above Tokyo, Le Yiqin once again looked back at the burning city and thought to himself: "Next time I come again, it won't be aimless bombing!"

The land-based aviation of the Independent Division and the carrier-based aircraft of the fleet flew away, and the sky above Tokyo was calm, but the fires burning everywhere, and the smell of gunpowder smoke and burnt smell permeating the sky over the city became more intense, and Tokyo also changed from panic. Resurrected from uneasiness, there are crowds crying and fighting the fire everywhere, but the palace is dead silent. Because of fear of another bombing by the independent division fleet, the poor Emperor Hirohito stayed in the dark and damp air-raid shelter until the sky was bright.

The first thing he did when he returned to the ground was that Emperor Hirohito called his younger brother Prince Zaihito in person. He was furious at first, "How do you become the deputy commander-in-chief of homeland defense? The capital of the empire Tokyo, my imperial palace, was bombed twice by Chinese planes in one day, and my personal safety is not guaranteed, is it because I am dead that you have fulfilled your wishes?"

Emperor Hirohito's words were quite vicious. It seems that the bombing of Tokyo and the Imperial Palace was done on purpose by Prince Zaihito. He was suspected of killing the king and usurping the throne under the guise of the Air Force of the Independent Division. The Prince Zaihito on the other end of the phone was scared Shang'er was sweating profusely, and finally got a chance to speak, so he swears so immeasurably, that he almost ran back to Tokyo immediately, and showed his heart to the emperor.

Of course, Emperor Hirohito would not doubt that Prince Zaihito would do such a thing. He was just acting evil. It is said that Tokyo was bombed twice in one day, which was enough for him to be furious and cut off the heads of several military generals. Oh, but the culprits, Ono and Gao Cun, have already committed suicide and apologized. I can't pull out some big shots from the headquarters and execute them, so I can only vent my anger on my younger brother, otherwise, I will have to hold back the disease Come!

Putting down the phone number of the emperor's elder brother, Prince Zain, who was still busy at Yamaguchi Castle in the main part of Honshu Island, wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, suddenly felt sore and weak, and felt a wave of fear. With this memorial tablet, the morale of the army soldiers and all the citizens will definitely be drained, and the Great Japanese Empire will be over immediately.

After settling his mind, Prince Zairen knew what he should do most. He immediately issued an order in the name of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Homeland Defense to transfer about [-] aircraft from four air teams from the headquarters of the northern defense area of ​​Honshu Island. For the fighter jets, about [-] fighter jets were recruited from the three wings of the flight corps, and they were immediately transferred to the airports around Tokyo.

It doesn’t matter if the airports in the surrounding area of ​​Tokyo are destroyed by the bombers of the Air Force of China’s Independent Division. Hurry up and repair them, and activate the backup airport immediately, even if it is an airport farther away from Tokyo. A complete air defense net.

Although doing so is tantamount to weakening the air defense forces in the northern defense area of ​​Honshu Island, which is a practice of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, but Prince Zairen must do this, and he dare not not do it. The emperor's brother was angry The roar was still echoing in my ears.
