Chapter 337 I, Li Yunlong, am a wolf. I always take revenge on the spot and never wait until the nex
The time came to December 12th. Lin Zhenhua became busy since the morning. The napalm bombs secretly assembled in the eighth workshop of the arsenal were secretly transferred out of the warehouse and delivered to the designated location last night. After the action time is determined, the ammunition will be loaded three hours in advance.
"College student, it's already nine o'clock in the morning. Have you decided on the departure time? If we set off in the morning, we will launch a bombing on the Japanese at night, and we will be able to return to the base by this time tomorrow. I roughly calculated the time. We will need to fly back and forth for 24 hours. The flight time is very long. We also have to consider the preparations for the Japanese to discover our identities. I think the sooner the better, or the later the better." Li Yunlong asked a little irritably.
Lin Zhenhua knew the reason for Li Yunlong's irritability. The loss of contact with the First Transport Brigade gave everyone a bad feeling. For safety reasons, the air transport line has been suspended. Last night, a transport plane was urgently modified and equipped with a large number of self-defense weapons. Today, it was arranged to perform a reconnaissance mission to investigate the reason for the loss of contact with the First Transport Brigade.
"Old Li, you can't be impatient. The departure time is temporarily set at 4 pm. We are now conducting the final inspection before the operation, and it is expected to be completed before 10 pm. The loading of ammunition and fuel will be completed before 3 pm. We will definitely not miss the important event."
"As for the matter of the First Transport Aircraft Squadron, we can only wait until tomorrow. After all, we don't know how long this investigation will last, so we should be prepared for a long battle!"
Li Yunlong knew that what Lin Zhenhua said was the truth, and he really had no better idea at the moment. He could only put the matter on hold for the time being and wait for the results of the investigation to come out.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes. At 12:22 noon, the transport plane that went to investigate flew back unsteadily. After learning the news, Lin Zhenhua and Li Yunlong immediately rushed to Maoershan Airport. When they arrived at the airport, the twin-engine transport plane No. ran out of the airport runway and made an emergency landing on the grass. The landing gear was completely damaged, and the nose of the entire transport plane directly touched the ground. The two pilots inside also fainted under the impact of the collision.
"Hurry up and save people, hurry up! Zhou Haiyang, call the hospital immediately and ask them to send someone over immediately!" Li Yunlong shouted anxiously.
""College student, the situation has changed. I have to notify Lao Zhao and the others to come over. The 4pm attack time is cancelled immediately. Even if we have to take action, we have to postpone it to the evening!"
Lin Zhenhua knew that Li Yunlong's arrangement was not wrong, but he really couldn't act rashly before figuring out the situation, otherwise the bomber formation would be in danger of being wiped out.
It was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that everyone figured out the reason for the transport plane accident. They did not expect that the Japanese would send out fighter jets to cut off the air transport line. This made everyone's expressions extremely ugly. Lin Zhenhua also secretly felt lucky. If they had sent out this afternoon, they might have been caught by the Japanese, and the bomber formation would have been in danger of being wiped out.
Zhao Gang knocked on the table to stop the argument and said seriously, "Stop arguing. It is certain that the First Transport Brigade has been wiped out by the Japanese fighter planes. If we send out transport planes to restore the air transport line now, it would be a suicidal act. There is no need to discuss this matter any further. Before the threat of the Japanese fighter planes is resolved, all transport planes must be grounded, even nighttime flights. The only thing we have to worry about now is the transfer station. If we lose contact with the base, I'm afraid there will be problems with their supplies!"
Lin Zhenhua said at the right time: "Old Zhao, the transfer station has enough pickles and food for a month. Don't worry about drinking water. I dug six wells and built nine water cellars there. They have all been connected in recent days. In addition, I have sent them 30 tons of drinking water. Even if they lose the supply from the base, they can hold on for a month."
"Not to mention that as a material transfer station, a large amount of canned food and biscuits are transported from there every day. If there is really nothing to eat, they can eat canned food and biscuits to survive the crisis. With only 200 people, they can't eat much. In my opinion, they will have no problem holding on for a year or two. You can rest assured about this. I have considered the current situation before. As long as the transfer station is not discovered by the Japanese fighter planes, there is really nothing to worry about."
"No one took the Japanese's attempt on the Zhangjiazhuang market seriously, thinking that even if the Japanese blocked our supply sources on the road, we could still get the urgently needed supplies through the air transport line. Now it seems that the Japanese have already set their sights on our air transport line, but we didn't notice it at all and underestimated the Japanese. I estimate that the Japanese will have a series of killer moves next, so we must prepare for the worst in advance!"
Ding Wei, the dog-headed military advisor, said immediately: "I think it's better for us to cancel Operation Boomerang. After all, the Japanese have figured out our air force. If we launch a large-scale operation, the Japanese may send fighter planes to attack our air force base in advance. We have to be on guard against this."
"We underestimated the Japanese in Ping'an County before. We didn't expect them to make such a big fuss. It's better for us to be cautious at this time. Let's find a way to produce more fighter jets and build a few more transfer stations. With the escort of fighter jets, our air transport line can be used again. But before that, it's better for us to endure it!"
The honest man Kong Jie also spoke up in agreement at the right time, "What Lao Ding said makes sense. As the saying goes, there is life, there is hope. Before we compete with the Japanese air force, it is better to accumulate strength honestly. Exposing our strength too early will only bring the war forward, which is not good for the development of our base. Especially since we have received 70 disaster victims and it took a lot of effort to settle them down. In addition, the cold winter is about to come. Now is not the best time to fight. It is best to delay it until next spring. By then, the training of various troops will be completed, and we can expand our troops again to improve our strength again."
"The longer we endure, the faster our strength will grow. I think it's better to hold back for now. There will be plenty of opportunities for revenge in the future. There's no need to rush."
Even Xing Zhiguo, who had always disliked speaking, agreed at this time: "Now is indeed not the time for revenge. The new recruits have only been trained for a month and have only mastered the basic shooting and aiming. Physical training and tactical training have not kept up. We need more time for training. The Zhangjiazhuang market is closed, so it will not have much impact on the base in the short term. We can take advantage of this winter to conduct large-scale military training and train the reserve forces. When we are stronger, we will start with the Japanese in Ping'an County!"
Zhao Gang also supported the views of the three people. Since the Japanese have already noticed the air force of the base, they should temporarily avoid the enemy's edge and make a surprise attack after the strength is accumulated. Now they need to endure hardships like Goujian. After three months, the 20,000-strong army will be reborn and will be more than enough to capture Ping'an County.
"Lao Li, I know you feel uncomfortable, but we only have 16 Thunder fighters in total. What can we use to fight against the Japanese air force? Since yesterday, college students have begun to move some important mechanical equipment to prevent the Japanese bombing. Right now our base is still in a dormant period. After the beginning of next spring, I will not object even if you attack Ping'an County, but we must tolerate it this time!"
Li Yunlong looked at Lin Zhenhua with red eyes and asked seriously, "College student, tell me something straightforward. Can our fighter squadron take off to avenge the sacrificed pilots?"
Lin Zhenhua replied with a look of dejection: "The combat radius of our fighter is only 656 kilometers, and this is under the premise of adding auxiliary fuel tanks. It could have reached 700 kilometers. But after we replaced the machine guns, the fuel consumption increased significantly, and the range was directly shortened by 100 kilometers. There was no problem in reaching the accident site. It is only 1200 kilometers away from our base. It can be reached one way, but it also means that the pilots who set out can't come back, and they don't even have time to stay in the air to fight. Such an attack can be said to be meaningless and will only waste the lives of the pilots!"
"Old Li, we can't let anger cloud our heads at this time. Even if we want revenge, we have to come up with a practical plan. It's useless to act on impulse. I can't send out bombers to carry out this mission. That would be a suicidal act."
"We can completely use other means to retaliate against the Japanese. I have decided to continue with Operation Boomerang. The time of the operation has been changed to 7 o'clock tonight. When we arrive over the Japanese mainland, it will be morning. The visibility will be very good, and the bombing effect will be better!"
"I know that you, Lao Zhao, don't want me to continue with Operation Boomerang. Even I had plans to cheat before, wanting to put some camouflage on the bomber to hide our true identity, but now I don't plan to do that. This time we will bomb the Japanese homeland openly and bring the war to the Japanese home. Only by making the Japanese feel the pain, will they curb their madness and the persecution of the people can be reduced!"
Li Yunlong slammed the table hard and said angrily, "I, Li Yunlong, am a wolf, not a dog. The Japanese want me to become an obedient dog, but it's impossible in this life, the next life, or the next life. I've never been a person who won't fight back after being beaten. Since the Japanese attacked our transport squadron, let's drop bombs on their homeland, let their hometown also taste the pain of being bombed, and avenge our dead brothers!"
"College students, let's continue to carry out Operation Boomerang tonight and teach the devils a lesson. Let them know that we are not to be trifled with!"
