The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"What kind of person is MacArthur? The U.S. military used him to lead the Far East Army. What specialties and advantages did they take into account in him?"

When the coalition forces turned from passive to active, and used a sudden and powerful attack to disintegrate China's strategy and achieve partial breakthroughs, Zhu Bin did not stop making preparations. The most important task was to fight against the enemy. Collect and analyze the data of the generals, so as to judge the strategies and tactics they may adopt, avoid the real and attack the false, and hit with one blow.

This job is not so easy to do. Early data collection is very important, because as long as the war starts, the activities of latent intelligence personnel will become very difficult, and all kinds of information will be seriously out of shape in the ever-changing war. It's more meaningful than being prepared in advance.

In the past, Zhu Bin himself didn't need to care too much about such things, because he was surrounded by Jiang Baili, who was extremely familiar with the Japanese temperament and military strategy, and led a huge staff team and intelligence experts. The Japanese were equivalent to one-way transparency, and in the absolute advantage Under the crushing of weapons and equipment, even if some tactical things are missing, it will not affect anything.

But the strategic deployment led by the United States is completely different.The way of thinking of Westerners is very different from that of Easterners. Values ​​and cultural connotations are incompatible. When reflected in war, it is more likely to produce extremely uncomfortable changes. This must be considered in advance.

The so-called, the enemy will be lenient, and the one with the most temples will win, which is true.

However, under the influence of severe xenophobia in recent years, especially the trend of anti-Chinese, Yankees have severely compressed the space for activities of Chinese faces. When the honeymoon period is over, they directly start to use state force to persecute them, causing great damage The deployment of intelligence agencies.Now as the war progresses, intelligence is constantly being updated.

MacArthur changed from a retired general of the U.S. Army to the head of the Philippine Army, and was later promoted to lieutenant general to command the Far East Army during the war. It is shorter to get the leadership of the coalition.Therefore.Zhu Bin only asked this question.

In fact, there is another reason, which is based on the conclusions drawn from the comprehensive analysis of the intelligence department and the staff department. Originally, it was not thought that MacArthur would become the leader, but now there is an unexpected result --- from the intercepted and deciphered telegrams, It is indeed surprising!

That's right, the telegram that Chief of Staff Sutherland excitedly sent to MacArthur was intercepted and deciphered by Zhu Bin's side without any accidents, and then he quickly analyzed the result that the old man was going to make an appearance, which surprised Zhu Bin.

"MacArthur..." Zhang Yi, who was Zhu Bin's secretary, was transferred back again.This extremely smart, but extremely restless guy is always being transferred around, and everyone around him is numb, but he doesn't seem to be bored at all, because everywhere, Zhu Bin is worried about being surrounded by others. Fully grasp the key points, such as missile bases, such as space centers.Institutions such as secret research institutes.

Relevant archival materials and analysis summaries were immediately retrieved from the database. After a brief scan, Zhang Yi concluded: "Judging by our standards. This person is not suitable to be a leader of a major war zone! When he was young I used to have good qualities, such as never giving up, sticking to principles, etc. But as I grow older, I become very self-willed, very happy with my achievements, and don’t listen to other people’s opinions and criticisms. And I like to show off! Even a little bit like us Generalissimo Jiang is very similar, that is, he thinks he is a strategic and tactical genius, likes sudden ideas and executes them firmly. In short, he is an old stubborn, die-hard guy!"

Zhu Bin raised his eyebrows.I called up the screen and quickly scanned around, and couldn't help laughing: "Shouting? This old guy is interesting! After taking office, he was afraid that others would not know, so he specially asked people to conduct a round of image promotion in the United States. Why does this feel a bit like a Hollywood star! As long as he leads troops to fight, he is not afraid to kill those poor stunted American boys?"

The corner of Zhang Yi's mouth curled up slightly. He was not as wild and unruly as Boss Zhu, but he also felt disdain for MacArthur in his heart. A general who likes to show off as commander-in-chief is worrying about his subordinates!

MacArthur really has a set!After receiving the appointment from the U.S. military, the entire Philippines flattered him for a national celebration. At the same time, a large number of official and unofficial people in the country trumpeted him in various media, as if he was the savior of the Asian people, as long as he came out , the sun will not set like.

There is a saying in China that goes, "The sky does not give birth to Zhongni, and the ages are like a long night."That's probably how it feels.

What's interesting is that MacArthur himself was not humble at all. He had no doubts about it. During the time he returned to the United States to receive his order, he frequently went to various high-class gatherings and publicly expressed his opinions.

The only reason is that the Chinese intelligence agencies at that time didn't take him seriously, thinking that this was a smoke bomb released by the US government, and they came to build a plank road to hide Chencang.I don't know that people's style of work is completely different from that of oriental people, this time it's for real!

Zhu Bin finished laughing, grabbed his needle-like hair, looked at the sky, and sighed: "I also said that this battle may be boring, now I send such a person, hehe, it will be more fun next time." ! Well, then, what are the opinions and suggestions of the staff department on this change?"

There are fewer and fewer people and things that can arouse his interest. If you can meet one, then you can't let it go easily!

Zhang Yi called up the document and quickly scanned it, and replied: "According to the changes in the Korean Peninsula and Japan's air force and army that we have monitored, it can be concluded that they will launch a large-scale cross-river attack! The most likely way is to Use a large number of airborne troops to seize the beachhead and strategic pass, and then quickly cross the river in a short period of time, attacking the outposts of Jilin and Liaoning in one go, and then respond to more main forces of the Japanese army. Bridgehead, strategic center!"

Pushing the picture to Zhu Bin, he added: "In the enemy's joint combat plan analyzed by the staff before, there was a similar judgment, but the attack involving the coalition's sea power was also scheduled for summer, because the earthquake With the impact of the volcano, there may be a larger adjustment."

"Huh? A volcanic earthquake. Will it have such a big impact?"

Zhu Bin was a little surprised. In his opinion, it was just a few volcanoes collapsing. The only thing that was worse was that the coastal cities and ports in Southern Kyushu were useless, leaving only Nagasaki and Sasebo in Kitakyushu. a naval base.And several places such as Kurume, Kumamoto, Saga, and Kitakyushu were given to the Army Air Force.But that site is not small?

He still underestimated how panicked the Japanese are about the "sinking land". In fact, more than half of the population of Kyushu Island has run away. Even the most numb farmers and fishermen have run away, and the rest are working hard. North concentration!The three main places of Nagasaki, Sasebo, and Kumamoto, and the two major ports were repeatedly bombed, except for the army and civilians.Kumamoto is too close to a volcanic earthquake zone, and the disaster has a huge impact.

So far, the disaster relief work in Southern Kyushu has not been completed. Many people have been buried in the wilderness and decayed. The magma erupting from two huge active volcanoes has spread for tens of kilometers, and the volcanic ash has made half of the big island Unable to survive, an ecological disaster has formed!

The lives of western foreign devils are precious.They dare not go there to make trouble, and besides, it is too close to China.Bombers and missiles can kill them at any time, which is too unsafe.

All these have greatly restricted the actions of the coalition navy. At this time, there are a large number of engineers and civilians working day and night to build several military ports and super large bases in Hokkaido.

"If I had known it would be such a big mess, I should have acted more gently. It seems a bit too fucking violent!"

Zhu Bin muttered a few words in a low voice, did not admit that he was the biggest saboteur, and then asked: "Then the staff thinks that this attack plan was carried out without the support of the navy, and the old man MacArthur agreed and even encouraged it The probability of occurrence is more than [-]%?"

"Yes! From the analysis of the content of the message, it should be judged that the Americans advocated the implementation of this plan! Regardless of whether there is an induced killing plan that we are implementing, they will do it once. Moreover, the Americans are very confident and can succeed!"

Zhu Bin rubbed his chin and nodded interestingly: "It's interesting! Hehe, it's very good. I'm still worried that they won't be able to get out of the nest. Then set up the water table and treat this group of international guests well." ! Give old MacArthur a big meal!"

He doesn't need to worry about the formulation of specific strategies and tactics. He only needs to set the tone, how far he will fight, and how much he will pay.

Zhang Yi admires the boss's daring to delegate power, employing people with no doubts, and making fierce moves. This kind of magnanimity is rarely sincere these days, and it is this special system that makes their group of young guards secretly The military elite wholeheartedly supported it.

Bing is precious and fast, Zhu Bin's decision was converted into a specific strategy formulated by the staff, and it was passed to the front line like a stream.After Yu Baoguo received it, he knew what the big boss meant without even looking at it. There is such a boss who is afraid of chaos in the world and is never afraid of war escalation. Whimsical tactics are fine, but if there are mistakes, Boss Zhu can always make up for the shortcomings with the means of flying immortals.

Such a worry-free battle is really a joy in life as a soldier!

Intensive preparations began immediately, and the fighting between the two sides also escalated rapidly on the border between China and North Korea.The initial small-scale raids and pursuits, and the premeditated hunting and killing operations that followed gradually failed.

It has to be said that after the Japanese army forced out its potential, the ability of the violent soldiers and the ability to resist losses are really strong!

In less than a week, the first wave of attacks caused a total of about [-] casualties. However, with the supplement of the Japanese army's air and ground integration, although most of the air transport was intercepted and killed, the hard-working soldiers on the ground relied on people to pull Pulled by the horse, it was driven abruptly from the bumpy temporary mountain road with [-] times the strength!Not only supplemented the previous battle damage, but even greatly increased the strength of the frontline troops!

Combat in the sky has also undergone tremendous changes!

The number of planes that were originally purely for escort and reconnaissance suddenly increased several times. At first, only two fighters with superior performance, the Ultimate Zero Combat Reform and the F4U, were fighting. But soon, the U.S. military added the P38 twin-engine heavy fighter, and the latest P47 Fighters join the sequence, with a wide variety and fierce firepower!

These two fighters greatly supplemented the originally very monotonous and weak Japanese air force, especially the large number of passionate American pilots, which greatly increased the number of experienced air knights for a while.Coupled with various advanced models with a ceiling height of more than 12000 meters, the air exchange of fire on the entire China-North Korea border has begun to undergo qualitative changes!

Here I have to mention the existence of the p38, which has greatly solved the shortcomings of the original ground attack force. This twin-engine fighter has thick skin and thick flesh. The 20mm cannon in the nose is fierce and has a very high endurance.When hovering and attacking the ground at low altitude, it was much better than the original Japanese rags, and it immediately reversed the serious unfavorable situation of the frontline suppression.

With the emergence of this kind of fighter plane, the previous scene of "peregrine falcons" running around and attacking unscrupulously changed greatly!Against an opponent who is equally strong and has both air-to-air and ground-to-ground attack capabilities, the simple "Peregrine" will inevitably appear a bit thin.So air superiority fighters followed suit.

Now it's fun!

The Chinese Air Force followed the calls of ground units, radar warnings, and high-altitude reconnaissance to mobilize and mobilize, while the Japanese and American coalition forces simply went on duty on a daily basis, relying on a huge fleet of aircraft to wander around the border all day long.They also know that they will definitely meet their opponents when they go out, and the rest is whoever wins and who loses.

The Americans and the Japanese are not delusional about rushing to launch a surprise attack or something, because it is simply impossible.The radar defense line set up by the opponent has almost no dead ends. Except for a very small number of desperate pilots who carefully walk through the valleys of no more than 400 meters, the others have almost no chance of evading detection.

It used to be less.It is equivalent to delivering food, it is better to hold the position steadily.Then make trouble for the other party!

The battlefield between the two sides is wide open, and the number of fighters dispatched is gradually increasing.From the very beginning, the Japanese and American allied forces gradually counterattacked, and soon they kept attacking the radar defense line, seducing the opposite Chinese fighter planes to chase and hunt them, and then swarmed up to fight in groups. The suddenness was basically impossible due to the existence of sharp radar Have illusions.But the advantage in numbers has always been on the coalition's side!

So in the next few days, the combat missions of Li Hanfeng and his small teams became more and more arduous. They didn't have to provoke the Japanese fortress, but they were chased all over the place by the search troops all over the mountains and plains.At the same time, you have to respond to orders issued at any time and rush to specific coordinates to rescue the Chinese pilot who was shot down and parachuted!

That's right, no matter how good the Chinese fighter jets are, it is inevitable that one of them will be shot down in a group fight.Especially on the northern battlefield, the second-generation Flying Shark is the main force. Although the performance is higher than that of the coalition forces, the missiles are far less luxurious and rich than the navy. Fighting with machine guns happens from time to time. There are blunders.

However, the problem of lack of pilots will soon be resolved.Among the reintegrated Chinese military forces, the scale of air force construction has begun to spread on a large scale due to the nationwide unified action. Tens of thousands of novices have begun to be intensively deployed in training centers in various places. Zhu Bin's request is in two Provide no less than 10 qualified pilots, no less than 30 ground staff, no less than 50 related reserve forces, and no less than 200 million aircraft production workers within the year.

This is not an easy requirement to meet.The standards of pilots in other countries are much lower than that, because they do not need to learn how to use airborne radar, how to use missiles for long-range combat, and how to adapt to so many air tactics that they may not be able to learn in a lifetime.Another one, there must be so many simulated flight training cabins manufactured --- the more technological the stuff, the more troublesome it is!

In short, although the battle damage on the front line has never exceeded five to one, and basically Chinese pilots can escape by parachuting, everyone knows that when the terrible folk reserves of the Yankees gradually burst out, it will form a locust-like disaster!With advanced fighters alone, if the number of people does not reach a certain base, it will definitely be worn down for life!

The military report from the base camp made Yu Baoguo busy here. Since the door was to be opened to welcome guests, it had to be received grandly, and warm guests who came from afar could not be left out in the cold, right?The big meal must be prepared, and if they can eat it, it depends on whether they have that good appetite!

Well, that's a lighter way of saying it.The real situation is that after getting the news, Yu Baoguo couldn't help but sneer: "Sure enough, a group of enemies who share the same bed and different dreams get mixed up, and there will be very interesting scenes! Want to open a gap from me? How is it possible!"

He, the well-known "Confucian Commander" in the army, also has the arrogance of the old-fashioned literati. Although he is a soldier, he has never been arty. He is the natural elegance of a scholarly family, and he is stronger than ordinary soldiers. There is an extra calm atmosphere!

Ten days later, the activities of the squad were temporarily suspended, and most of them were secretly taken out of the war zone. After all, in the next hundreds of thousands of battles, they would not play much role, but they would definitely become cannon fodder!

The U.S. military was fully prepared before Sutherland made the proposal. With the unanimous agreement of the coalition command, thousands of various aircraft took off from Japan, sea carriers, bases and other places, and landed in North Korea in batches to refuel and load. Soldiers equip themselves, then swarm up behind the fighter jets and flock to the battlefield along the river!

At the same time, thousands of fighter planes of various types took off from Korean-language Japan, and a huge group of them rushed to the Shandong Peninsula and Pingjin area separately. That posture seemed to be going all out to flatten the North Sea Fleet and North China logistics. center!

The battle siren is sounded urgently! (To be continued..)
