Chapter 26 The Eagle Strikes the First Cry
As the White Bear Commando left first, the Seahawk Commando, who decided to find a place to hide for a while, also drove the captured three large ships away from Weizhou Island Pier, followed by three cargo ships, and they would need to return later.
Seeing the troops and ships leaving one after another, Hu Biao found a task force and asked him to set up some trigger traps on the island. When the Japanese arrived on the island again, he believed that these traps could also cause some losses to the Japanese.
What surprised the task force the most was that Hu Biao prepared a large number of landmines. In Hu Biao's view, the southwest will carry out defensive operations in the future, and landmines are also extremely effective defensive weapons, which will make the Japanese army shudder.
Although the people who left on the freighter were still worried, they all knew that they would not be able to survive when the Japanese went to the island again. If they didn't leave now, they might not be able to leave after dawn.
On the other hand, Hu Biao, who stayed on the island, looked at the empty island that had already been left, and said a little sadly: This island is located well. If you can establish a base here, it will be much more convenient whether you go to Haikang City, Qinzhou or even Qiong Island!
There is no way, we have no navy and no air force, and it is difficult to defend this island with the army alone!
After following Hu Biao for a long time, Qin Tianyou and other subordinates' combat level has also improved a lot compared to before. They all know that at this stage, the only one who has the real advantage over the Japanese army is the Army.
This advantage is based on the fact that the troops of both sides are not much different. If you really encounter a built-in Japanese main division, even if you can make a profit in the end, you will be afraid that your own casualties will definitely be quite serious. This gap cannot be changed in a short period of time!
Faced with Qin Tianyou's comfort, Hu Biao smiled and said: It's okay, I just sighed, let the Japanese do more construction on the island. When they beat them away in the future, they can't take those buildings away, and they will leave them for us in the end.
In the later stage, we should pay more attention here. Now that the people are asking us to move away, the Japanese want to rebuild the airport, they also need to dispatch more laborers from other places. If there are prisoners of war, it would be okay for us to go there again!
Having had an opportunity to successfully infiltrate, Hu Biao believed that he would find opportunities in the future. Although the Japanese army could not concentrate on the southwest for a short period of time, the southwest would also become a key area for the Japanese army's attack in the future.
At that time, the forces fighting against the Japanese army were not limited to the National Government, but also involved more indigenous and colonial forces. The more crazy the Japanese, the more enemies they made, the more Hu Biao could find opportunities to get in trouble.
Just as Hu Biao was chatting with Qin Tianyou, a platoon leader stepped forward and said: Wolf Head, everything has been handled!
OK! Let’s go and burn incense together later! I hope someone will come to pay tribute to them in the future!
After going to the island, he learned that the Japanese had massacred many people on the island, and Hu Biao also ordered that all the Japanese who were executed be chopped up and piled up Jingguan. He placed them in the place where the people were buried in the corpses were considered to avenge these people who died in vain.
Hu Biao had done something like this on other battlefields earlier. Hu Biao would also show more iron-blooded means to massacre the Japanese army that was unarmed. Only in this way can the Japanese army know the consequences of the random killing.
As for the corpses, several barrels of aviation gasoline were prepared and poured on them when they left. In a word, Hu Biao wanted to make their ashes unable to return to the country, let alone the so-called heroic spirits who were chopped off!
When the freighter returned again, Lei Xiong, who came with the ship, said directly: Wolf Head, why don’t you go back first? I can just look at it here! No one knows whether the Japanese will suddenly appear after dawn!
It's okay! Arrange the people from the Seahawk Commando first to drive away the selected patrol ships. Have the guide found it?
Find it! They all know that place!
OK! Then let them set off! Remember, don’t hang the Japanese flags, and all the French flags are changed. It is best to rush to the sea entrance before dawn. At that time, I will arrange for people to pick them up!
clear!
Considering the limited manpower, Hu Biao retracted all the crew members responsible for the other two freighters. The two freighters temporarily docked near Haikang City. When the manpower was freed, the freighters drove away again.
Hu Biao did not refuse Lin Haoyuan's proposal. Hu Biao also heard of General Sa from the navy he recommended, who was the founder of the Navy of the Republic of China. If he could get his help, he would indeed save a lot of trouble.
Just to avoid too many people in the Navy of the Republic of China in the future, Hu Biao has already begun to arrange for Aihua Trading Company and began to recruit some Chinese crew members in Nanyang and other places to fill the fleet of the Seahawk Commando.
In Hu Biao's view, with the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, some Chinese and overseas Chinese who settled in Nanyang in the early years also began to support the motherland's war of resistance in various ways. Among this group of Chinese and overseas Chinese, there were a large number of technical workers.
At least one thing Hu Biao knew very well that the Yunnan-Burma Highway, which was later described as the lifeline of the Anti-Japanese War, had the efforts of a large number of Chinese and overseas Chinese workers. Most of these overseas Chinese workers were overseas Chinese and had a passion for serving the country. It would not be bad if they were recruited.
As Lin Haoyuan and others leave, Hu Biao will need more and more crew members and young people who understand the navy. These people can first join the freighter fleet, and after some assessment and inspection, then add them to the commando.
If all the three large ships seized can be preserved, Hu Biao will save a lot of trouble. With the maritime formation composed of these three large ships, he will strive for more voice in sea trade. Cooperating with the Eagle Strike Squad, he should be able to exert greater sea and air strike capabilities.
By dawn, there was not much time left, Hu Biao began to order someone to prepare breakfast in advance. The busy pilots also need to have a good meal and then prepare for the next flight.
Looking at Wu Haotian, the captain of the Eagle Strike Team, Hu Biao also said seriously: Golden Eagle, how familiar is the plane?
There is basically no problem with wolf head! Although the performance of the aircraft has not been fully understood for the time being, takeoff and landing should not be a problem!
That's good! Don't rush to fight with the Japanese flight formation for the time being. I'll send you to Luzon to study. I also hope that you will learn more flight knowledge and prepare for the subsequent formation of an aviation school and flight formation.
To put it simply, you are all the flying seeds I carefully selected. I also hope that through you, more pilots will be trained. As for fighter jets, we can obtain them through seizures or purchases in the early stage.
When we have strength in the later stage, we may also produce self-developed fighter jets. The air force will play an increasingly important role in the future combat sequence. In my opinion, the importance of air supremacy is more important than sea supremacy!
Listening to what Hu Biao said, Wu Haotian also knew that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy. But aren’t these exactly what he wanted to see? If the team could really become a brigade or brigade, they would have the opportunity to confront Japanese fighter jets.
After tasting the taste of being bombed by Japanese fighter jets, they naturally want to shoot down a few Japanese fighter jets, or drive the fighter jets, throw some bombs on the Japanese heads, so that the Japanese can also taste what it feels like to be bombed and strafed in the air!
Considering that he was likely to be intercepted by Japanese fighter jets on his way to Shillong. In addition to replenishing the fighter jets, Hu Biao also replenished the fighter jets with corresponding weapons and ammunition. Even if he did this, it would increase the difficulty of flight.
But Hu Biao still doesn't want to see that when he really encountered Japanese fighter jets or even ordinary reconnaissance aircraft, his own fighter jets had no power to fight back. Even if the actual combat capabilities of the Eagle Strike Squad were limited, I believe that those foreign pilots had more experience.
In addition to single-person fighter jets, Hu Biao arranged a task force to take off the air at random for those fighter jets that could fly in two. In the future, Hu Biao also plans to arrange corresponding flight and driving training for the task force.
In this case, even if the task force does not understand the skills of aerial fighting, he can drive the seized fighter jets back to his rear airport as soon as possible. Hu Biao will also train the task force to parachute.
Looking at the sea level that was about to be bright, Hu Biao, who felt that the visibility in the air was already quite low, immediately ordered the flight team that was ready to take off. The person in charge of the navigation was a senior foreign military flight instructor.
When the pilot plane successfully took off, the fighter pilots who were queuing up to take off later also seemed to be much more confident. Seeing one fighter plane after another, Qin Tianyou, Lei Xiong and others felt very happy.
In particular, Qin Tianyou smiled and said: Wolf Head, these fighter planes will not be given away to anyone again, right?
A batch of fighter jets was seized in northern Anhui in the previous period, but most of them were left by Bai Chongxi in the end. Now that the fighter jets are seized again, Qin Tianyou naturally hopes that these fighter jets can stay in Shillong and defend the airspace near Shillong.
Faced with Qin Tianyou's joke, Hu Biao also smiled and said: Of course not! Our airport has been repaired, there are places for the plane to stop, and there are pilots, so we naturally need to form our own flight team.
However, these captured fighter jets can only serve as trainers for the time being, and strive to train more pilots. In fact, these currently equipped fighter jets will be replaced in a short time, and the Japanese will be equipped with better performance fighter jets.
I am afraid that the Eagle Strike Team will have to wait for a while to defend the airspace. When the advanced fighter jets purchased later are in place, then give the Eagle Strike Team a while. Maybe when encountering the Japanese's small flying formation, we can still compete!
In Hu Biao's view, the main fighter jets of the Japanese army will be replaced by Type Zero in the future. If you want to regain air supremacy from the Japanese army, it is probably difficult to achieve it based on your own abilities. It is still possible to attack the Japanese army occasionally.
As long as the airport built in Shillong is not discovered by the Japanese army, wait for the Japanese army to invade the southwest and build an airport in the British and French colonies. Find the right time, maybe you can catch the Japanese off guard. If you want to achieve all-weather air defense, you really can't do it for the time being.
