Anti-Japanese War: Young Marshal? No, please call me Great Power

Chapter 141

"Huh? What is that? Shooting stars? "

After the wee hours of the morning, Chen Cheng and Gu Zhutong were still standing above the head of the city.

When he saw several objects shining like meteors in the sky, there was a hint of doubt on his face.

Chen Cheng is also battle-hardened.

After a little doubt, I reacted.

Suddenly, his face changed greatly.

"Shelling!"

These shells, like meteor fire, landed on the position outside Jining City in less than five seconds.

"Boom..... Rumble..... Boom..."

Several fires were on the positions of the 18th Army outside the city.

Although there are only a few shells.

But it made the faces of the soldiers change greatly, and they all entered the anti-gun hole in the position to hide.

Because this is a prelude to massive shelling - calibration!

Sure enough, it took less than ten seconds.

The dark night sky in the distance is reflected in orange-red.

It was as if the sun was rising over there.

After seeing this scene, Chen Cheng and Gu Zhutong's faces were full of shock and horror.

This is the sun.

It was formed by a salvo of hundreds of thousands of shells.

This includes rockets fired by Katyusha rocket launchers.

Swarms of shells whistled and fell.

In an instant, a dense explosion fire rose from the positions outside the city.

It was like a volcanic eruption, and the ground shook.

The sound of the explosion resounded like thunder throughout Jining City.

Immediately a light lit up in the dark city.

Then panicked crowds began to flood the streets.

Shells fell on positions outside the city as if they did not need money.

Inflicted a devastating blow on the positions outside the city of the 18th Army.

"Sir, it's no longer safe here, let's go into the city."

There are underground fortifications inside to ensure the safety of the two chiefs. "

The two were shocked and quickly followed the guard force and left the city.

At this moment, their mood is still very shocking.

This was the first time they had seen such a large-scale shelling.

The scene is spectacular.

It also left them with a scene that they will never forget.

Then they finally know why the Northeast Army was able to win a hundred battles.

With such heavy artillery fire, who could beat them.

At this time, Chen Cheng was a little regretful.

Why did the hot-headed occupy the Jiaonan region and clash with the Northeast Army.

Perhaps they will lose this battle badly.

And it's the kind that can't fight back.

The same scene also happened on the Zaozhuang side.

Wei Lihuang was awakened by the roaring cannon.

His headquarters was not in the city.

It is in the highlands on the right side of Zaozhuang.

Sitting here, you can see the situation of the entire battlefield clearly.

Wei Lihuang didn't even have time to put on clothes, so he came outside the headquarters.

When I saw the artillery fire and roar rising from the position several kilometers away.

His face couldn't help but change.

"Their attack began."

Then he raised his wrist and glanced at it.

Sure enough, time has passed the time for the ultimatum.

See such a continuous stream of artillery fire.

Wei Lihuang's face was extremely solemn.

"The artillery fire of the Northeast Army is not weaker than that of the other countries.

Chairman, Chairman of the CPPCC National Committee, I am afraid that this time it is less fierce. "

Just by the intensity of the artillery fire, you can get a glimpse of the leopard.

Know part of the strength of the Northeast Army.

And their reorganized German armament division looked so ridiculous in the face of such dense artillery fire.

After recovering from the shock, Wei Lihuang ordered: "Order the front-line soldiers to be vigilant against night attacks.

Prepare your reserves for battle. "

However, he felt that the Northeast Army night attack was unlikely.

If it were him, he would definitely not launch a night attack operation.

Night combat is inherently difficult.

What's more, they are still on the defensive side and have a great advantage.

And the heavy firepower of the Northeast Army will not be effective due to environmental reasons.

If you want to change it to him, you will definitely launch a fierce attack during the day.

Of course, the possibility of night raids is not impossible.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and anything can happen.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for them.

"The sign-in was successful, congratulations on obtaining an aircraft carrier and a full set of production drawings."

[Note: You can choose the aircraft carrier model, carrier-based aircraft and personnel establishment by yourself.] 】

"Successful sign-in, congratulations to the Institute of Physics and Physics."

When Zhang Xueming saw these two rewards, he was stunned for several seconds.

Then a huge surprise came to mind.

These two rewards were almost blinding him.

I've been waiting for more than three months.

He finally waited for the aircraft carrier that he had in mind.

Not to mention the latter reward.

Being able to check in to an aircraft carrier is more exciting than checking in to a battleship.

Giant ship artillery may be very powerful in this era.

But aircraft carriers are the future after all.

And this time, the system actually gave away a full set of production drawings.

As long as you have skilled shipbuilders and equipment.

Shipyards in Tohoku are fully capable of producing and building on their own.

Instead of crossing the river by feeling the stones yourself.

He had thought countless times if he signed in to the aircraft carrier.

Which one to choose.

In fact, there is no need to hesitate at all.

As a crosser who traveled back to World War II.

The Midway-class large aircraft carrier is undoubtedly a dream mother.

The Midway Thief was commissioned on September 1, 1945.

It was clear that it missed World War II.

But it can't hide its light in the slightest.

This is a large aircraft carrier designed after the end of World War II, condensing the amazing essence of Eagle Sauce ships.

Its full load displacement reaches 60,000 tons.

The most famous Essex-class aircraft carrier has a full load displacement of only 36,000 tons.

It has a tonnage comparable to that of a battleship.

Its aircraft carrying capacity is undoubtedly huge.

In total, it can carry more than 100 carrier-based aircraft to fight.

Equipped with 12 boilers, four powerful steam turbines, its total power is up to 210,000 hp.

It also allows the massive aircraft carrier to travel at speeds of up to 30 knots.

On the formation of carrier-based aircraft.

Zhang Xueming carefully selected, and finally adopted the combination of F4U Thief/F8F Tomcat fighter + A-1 Skyraider attack aircraft.

This can be seen entirely from this configuration.

The shadow of torpedo bombers and dive bombers was not found.

Naturally, they were all replaced by the A-1 Skyraider carrier-based attack aircraft.

Because the A-1 SkyRaider attack aircraft appeared to replace them.

It has all the features of both fighters, and it's even better.

As a dive bomber, it had a larger bomb load.

Three large speed brakes at the rear of the fuselage allow it to deliver bombs at near-vertical angles at angles above 85.

When used as a torpedo bomber, it could carry three MK13 aviation torpedoes weighing nearly one ton.

The early MK13 aviation torpedo was notorious and almost no one wanted to use it.

Because the reliability of this thing is too low, and the restrictions are too great.

According to tests of 105 torpedoes fired, 36% failed to start.

Of these, 20% of the torpedoes sank, 20% of the torpedoes yawed, 18% of the torpedo depth was inaccurate, and 2% of the torpedoes taxied on the surface.

Only 31% of torpedoes were functional.

From here, you can tell how outrageous this thing is.

However, after improvement.

Not only the weight has increased to a ton.

It is also capable of throwing at an altitude of 730 meters at a speed of more than 760 kilometers per hour.

It is capable of reaching a speed of 33 knots and has a range of more than 5.5 kilometers.

This torpedo can be said to be how spurned it was in the early stage, and how much it was loved in the later stage.

An A-1 Skyraider can carry 3 of these pieces.

And its caliber surpassed that of the shipborne torpedo, reaching an over-caliber of 570 mm.

The Yamato aircraft carrier was hit by 10 rounds and sunk.

It can be seen that its power is extraordinary.

Pair it with the words of the A-1 Skyraider.

The power it can exert is 1+12.

In terms of the number of carrier-based aircraft, one can top several heavy aircraft carriers of other countries.

An F4U pirate carrier-based aircraft group of 40 aircraft. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

At the same time, the F4U pirate carrier-based aircraft also plays the role of a fighter-bomber.

An F8F Tomcat carrier-based aircraft group of 40 aircraft, acting as pure air superiority fighters.

There are also 6 squadrons of 54 A-1 Sky Raider attack aircraft.

A total of 134 aircraft were on board, of which more than 10 were spares.

About 120 were actually able to enter the battle.

But this amount is already very scary.

With the addition of this aircraft carrier.

Zhang Xueming has the confidence to fight with the main forces of the combined fleet of the Yin Kingdom.

Compared to the increase in combat effectiveness brought by battleships.

The increase in strength brought by this aircraft carrier is very enormous.

Not to mention the fact that production drawings of the aircraft carrier can be attached.

This means that it will not be long before the construction of such aircraft carriers can also be started in the northeast.

With an annual production of six million tons of steel, shipbuilders are also being trained in large numbers.

At the same time, foreign shipbuilders are also being introduced.

Within a year, the first large aircraft carrier belonging to China will definitely be able to start construction.

Zhang Xueming is still confident in this.

The second reward is even more incredible.

Institute of Nuclear Physics.

From the name, you can see what this thing is researching.

Once this institute was built.

This means that Northeast China has surpassed other countries in nuclear physics and is at the forefront of the world.

And it can be equipped with nuclear weapons before the outbreak of World War II.

This also made China invincible in World War II.

This is very critical.

This reward is also unprecedented.

Zhang Xueming, who originally wanted to sleep.

At the moment, I couldn't sleep with excitement.

Since you can't sleep, then simply pay attention to how the war is going on at the front.

The front line is still roaring with artillery fire.

At every moment, a large number of shells fell on the positions of the Central Army.

The soldiers of the Central Army could only tremble in the anti-artillery fortifications of the position.

Their artillery began to strike back though.

But they were armed with too few artillery pieces.

Unable to form an effective counterattack...........

At all, it did not pose much threat to the artillery of the Northeast Army.

On the contrary, they suffered considerable losses under the counterattack of the heavy cannons of the Northeast Army.

Aggravate their already low number of heavy artillery.

Chen Cheng and Gu Zhu did not sleep the same night.

Gunfire was heard outside the city all night.

Both of them are holding a panda eye at the moment.

"It's been more than six hours, almost seven hours, and they don't want money for their shells?"

Chen Cheng said in a somewhat low tone.

The heart is full of powerlessness and a sense of humiliation.

Faced with this situation, he really has no way to do it.

Gu Zhutong, on the other hand, smiled bitterly and said, "It is not unreasonable that the Northeast Army can achieve successive victories in the war against the Yan Kingdom and Russia.

The shelling went on all night, and it was time for dawn.

Their ground offensive is probably about to begin. "

Chen Cheng glanced at the faint light shining through the observation hole.

"Yes, if we are really powerless to resist, we also need to retreat decisively.

You can't put all the elite here. "

Before victory is spoken, defeat is achieved.

It can also be seen that Chen Cheng no longer has the slightest confidence in being able to fight the Northeast Army.

Gu Zhutong also nodded in agreement.

It's not that we're too weak, it's that the Northeast Army is too strong.

When the time came to seven o'clock.

The sky is already bright in the evening.

In total, it was officially launched at this moment.

Jining front.

The 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division launched a full-line offensive with more than 100 T-34/85 tanks as the front.

But it wasn't the Army that arrived on the battlefield first.

"Buzz . . ."

A huge air cluster of more than 200 fighters appeared on the battlefield on time.

This is a fleet of aircraft taking off from the Peiping Military Airfield.

It consists of P-51D Mustang, P47D Thunderbolt, Mosquito, A-1 Skyraider and B-29 strategic bomber.

It is subordinate to the 2nd Air Force of the Air Force of the Northeast Border Army.

30 B-29 strategic bombers were the first to drop bombs.

A rain-like 250KG bomb fell from 5,000 meters in the air.

In an instant, there was a continuous explosion on the ground.

The sound resounded in the sky.

Dense explosive fire rose up in the position.

The bomber group carried out a wave of carpet bombing of the main positions outside Jining.

Let the Central Army feel a wave of love from the Northeast Army Air Force.

When the bomber group finished dropping bombs.

It's the performance moment of other fighters.

One bomb after another was dropped in a more accurate way into the tunnel attack below.

Their purpose was to destroy the positions of the Central Army.

Clear a way for the assault clearance of tank troops.

Where had the 50th Division seen such a big battle at this moment.

It would have been shelled all night.

Now again bombarded so intensively.

They are already on the verge of collapse.

As a motley army, their will to fight was already weak.

If not for the suppression of shelling.

In addition, there is Chen Cheng's supervision team in the rear.

Otherwise, they would have fled their positions long ago.

But even so, they are not much better at the moment.

The original strength was 6,000 troops.

After a night of 0.3 shelling and just now bombardment, the losses have exceeded two thousand people.

"Commander-in-chief, the 50th Division can't stand it, I'm afraid they will throw themselves into the enemy in front of the bomb, let the 53rd Division go up."

Positions outside the city are the most dangerous and most vulnerable to heavy fire.

Therefore, Chen Cheng did not arrange the German Armament Division or his own 18th Army.

Instead, two divisions adapted from the Xiang Army were used as cannon fodder.

Otherwise, yesterday's loss would have been enough to make him feel distressed.

Chen Cheng nodded and said, "Then let the 50th Division withdraw, and the 53rd Division go up." "

And after receiving the order of the 53rd Division, the whole army was bitter.

The situation on the front line also puts them on.

Isn't this sending them to death?

But a command is an order.

A regiment's overseers looked at them.

They could only enter front-line positions that were almost in ruins from among the tunnel fortifications.

Replace the 50th Division, which had been bombed for a night.

The shelling and bombing lasted about half an hour.

The artillery fire of the Northeast Army actually began to extend.

Directly aimed at the city wall of Jining City.

The shells cut through the air and smashed heavily on the city walls.

Suddenly, the entire city wall began to shake violently.

In less than ten seconds, a wall was blown open.

The Central Army above suffered heavy casualties.

They hurriedly withdrew.

The artillery fire extended because the ground forces of the 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division had reached the attacking position.

When after crossing a gentle slope.

The T-34/85 medium tank cluster of the Northeast Army appeared in the eyes of the Central Army.

Behind the tank were followed by M2/3 half-track armored vehicles scattered over the mountains.

When the Central Army saw this scene.

Their faces began to turn pale, and their eyes were full of shock and fear.

After Chen Cheng saw this scene, he understood that Jining would definitely not be able to hold on.

This amount is too much to be beaten.
