Chapter 163: The Destroyer
Countless weapons have been invented in the history of mankind, but there has never been a weapon capable of destroying the world.
There have been countless wars in the history of mankind, but there has never been a war that could destroy the world.
But now, everything has come quietly
When air supremacy is completely in their hands, the Chinese have already got what they want.
All of them are in progress.
Now the only question is what kind of attack the Chinese will take at what time and in what place.
At least so far, there has been no sign of any Chinese ground forces wanting to land.
What exactly do the Chinese want to do? This has become a mystery that puzzles everyone's heart
Time, June 1943.
The training base of the 21st Flight Group of China.
"Gao Zhihang, Chen Huaimin, Yan Haiwen!"
"Here!"
"Report to the brigade headquarters immediately!"
"Yes!"
The three young lieutenant [***] officers did not know what was going on and hurried to the brigade headquarters.
They found that in addition to the captain of the large unit, there was also a strange lieutenant general of the Air Force.
This was the first time the three of them had seen such a high-ranking officer, and one of them stood upright: "Hello sir! ”
The general nodded slightly: "I am Wang Rufei, commander-in-chief of the Air Force Special Flight Group!" ”
"Hello sir!" The three of them were taken aback, and hurriedly stood up again and said.
There are so many legends about this commander-in-chief, he has made great achievements in Russia and in Pontus, he is the overlord of control!
"We need a group of pilots to go on special missions." Wang Rufei didn't have too much politeness, and said straight to the point: "Your captain recommended you to me, saying that you are the best pilots under him, are you willing to carry out this mission?" ”
"Yes, sir!" There was no hesitation in the reply of the three officers.
Wang Rufei's face was grim: "I must remind you that this mission is extremely dangerous, it may make you never be able to fly into the blue sky again, and even lose your life, are you still willing to do it now?" ”
"Yes, sir!" The three officers replied without hesitation.
Wang Rufei's face finally showed a smile: "Then, let's prepare, don't inform your family, and don't inform your comrades-in-arms, from now until the end of the war, you have disappeared."
The hearts of the three officers were a little nervous, although they did not know what kind of person this was, but in the history of the Chinese Air Force, there had never been a situation in which someone had been reported missing while still alive
"You can still refuse me now, and you won't be punished in any way." Wang Rufei's voice was calm and cold: "The executor of this task needs absolute loyalty, absolute obedience to orders, and anyone with any selfish distractions will be given up by us."
"We do, sir!" Gao Zhihang replied loudly on behalf of his brothers
When Gao Zhihang and the others came to the secret training base, they found that it was not the three of them who were selected, at least more than 300 pilots appeared in this secret training base.
It turned out to be Wang Rufei who served as their instructor!
As a lieutenant general and commander-in-chief, the important and mysterious surnames of this task have become more and more curious in the hearts of the students.
What kind of character is it?
"The mission is codenamed 'The Great Desert'!"
Wang Rufei told every student: "You are all the pride of the sky, and you are the elite of the Air Force elite. Some of you are kings on the training grounds, some are proud of the battlefield, but I can tell you that not only have you never experienced this mission, but you have never even heard of it. ”
These words aroused the great curiosity of the students even more.
"From now on, this training base will be everything to you." Wang Rufei's expression became more and more serious: "Before the order is over, none of you are allowed to leave here for a single step!" ”
After saying these words, Wang Rufei paused slightly: "Next, I will ask Konstantin to teach you some knowledge that you must master. ”
"What we are talking about is called the atomic bomb," was the opening remark of Professor Konstantin, who speaks Chinese fluently.
The students were a little scratchy, how to let a foreigner teach themselves? Also, what kind of thing is the "atomic bomb" in the professor's mouth?
Professor Constantine, an American, was one of the first scholars to come to China to participate in the research of the atomic bomb. He was involved in the development of China's ultimate weapon, the atomic bomb.
In that secret research base in Sichuan, experts and professors from China, the United States, Germany and other countries participated in this secret research and brought the first atomic bomb to China.
The consequence of this was the clandestine manufacture of a large number of atomic bombs in China
Professor Konstantin has been in China so long that he has even forgotten that he is an American. He was proud and proud to have been involved in the development of a powerful new weapon. His name will inevitably be recorded in history.
Of course, Professor Konstantin will not know where the Chinese will drop the atomic bomb. If he knew, what kind of expression would it be?
"The only thing I can tell you about the atomic bomb right now is that it will explode at a 20,000-ton TNT yield. This will be a very big explosion" Konstantin's words immediately attracted the attention of all the students: "I know that you are all ace pilots of China, and there have been countless bombs dropped, but what I must tell you is that the bombs dropped this time are something you have never seen before, if you don't see it with your own eyes in your life, you can't imagine what kind of bomb this is, okay, can anyone tell me how you dropped bombs before?" ”
Gao Zhihang stood up: "When we used to drop bombs, we all flew forward directly after dropping them. But Professor, I think this time should be different, what should be done this time? ”
A smile appeared on Konstantin's face, and he praised the modest and studious pilot: "This time is completely different, you can't go straight ahead, because you were right above it when the bomb exploded, and no one would know that you were there." You should leave the expanding shock wave at a tangential angle immediately."
Gao Zhihang was silent: "I have studied a little trigonometry and some physics. What is the tangent angle for this time? ”
Professor Konstantin nodded: "159 degrees, both sides can turn around 159 degrees as soon as possible, so that you can get away from the bomb that has exploded to the maximum"
"How many seconds does it take to turn around?" Gao Zhihang asked carefully.
"It can't be more than 42 seconds at the latest." Professor Constantine's expression suddenly became extremely serious: "Please remember this time, you must practice again and again until each of you can complete the movement in 40 to 42 seconds without thinking."
Professor Konstantin carefully answered every question of the students and carefully described any possible situation.
On such an issue, he absolutely did not dare to have the slightest carelessness.
When Konstantin finished speaking, Wang Rufei walked back to the podium: "Now that the training has officially begun, from this minute on, your code name will be 'Destroyer'." ”
Destroyer!
At this moment they are no longer pilots, but one "destroyer" after another!
The training program is fresh, but it is also hard and boring. These pilots had never experienced such training before. The drop of the atomic bomb was completely different from any bomb they had ever experienced before.
These pilots knew that this was a major bombing project, but they didn't know much about the mysterious "atomic bomb", only from the lips of Professor Konstantin that the explosion of the atomic bomb would be a very terrible thing.
But what's so scary? I'm afraid that no one will give them an answer.
Everything that the Destroyer does has a mysteriousness to it. Wang Rufei, who was personally in charge of their training, demanded that the entire team members should maintain a high degree of secrecy, in fact, Wang Rufei knew very little about the atomic bomb, and after he accepted the mission, someone once taught him the mystery of atomic splitting, and Wang Rufei, who knew only half of it, realized that the atomic bomb was a cutting-edge, secret, and powerful weapon.
What echoed in his ears all the time was the words of President Zhang Xiaohuai:
"This weapon has the power to end this war, you can only succeed, not lose."
The first subject of these hard-training "destroyers" was high-altitude visual bombing. When the plane flies to an altitude of 3,000 feet, the bombardier uses an advanced Norden brand sight to aim at a lime-drawn circle of targets lined up on the ground. The circle is 100 meters in diameter and almost shrinks into a dot when viewed down from 3,000 feet. Pilots accustomed to bombing targeting with radar over cloudy skies wondered why they were trained in visual bombing of targets. As for the method of bombing, they were even more puzzled. Each time it flew alone, and only one bomb was dropped, and this bomb was also very peculiar, much larger than ordinary bombs, weighing four or five tons.
Immediately after each bomb drop, make a 155-degree dive turn and quickly leave the target area. No one asked why this was happening, knowing that this had already involved the top state secret.
But at the same time, they also vaguely felt that the so-called "atomic bomb" they were about to drop was by no means an ordinary bomb, and that perhaps as Wang Rufei said, they wanted to gamble with their surnames.
After a month of training at the secret training base, Wang Rufei received an order directly from the Ministry of National Defense to transfer his brigade and all equipment to Hawaii Island, where he received training closer to actual combat conditions.
Hawaii Island was much larger than the current base, and since the occupation of the area, it has become the largest forward air base of the Chinese team, and it is very well equipped.
The "Destroyer" brigade came to the island of Hawaii, where they began their peculiar training again. They are rarely contacted by the staff of the island.
The "Destroyer" brigade has undergone general technical training, mainly to adapt to the climatic conditions over the Pacific Ocean and to further improve the accuracy of bomb delivery. From the end of July, they conducted training in combat exercises, after which they conducted real combat training.
On the one hand, this can enable the pilot to familiarize himself with the situation in the target area and improve the level of bombing technology. On the other hand, simulate the same tactics as dropping an atomic bomb.
After almost brutal rigorous training, their bomb hit rate was greatly improved, and Gao Zhihang, who was the most well-trained, was able to visually aim at an altitude of 10,000 meters and drop the simulated bomb within a circle of 100 meters.
Now, everything is ready
December 1943.
Gao Zhihang, Chen Huaimin, Yan Haiwen and the pilots who were left behind in the brutal elimination were called together.
"Your training has been excellent, very!" General Wang Rufei accentuated his tone: "I am proud of you, some of you were eliminated, but you stubbornly stayed, and passed all the training. I have to congratulate you, now that you have completed your training and are ready to go on your mission. ”
A cheer came from among the students.
Isn't it just this moment after so many days of hard training?
Looking at the excited young men, the corners of Wang Rufei's mouth couldn't help but smile. What a horrible boy, what a bunch of boys!
Now, finally, it's their turn to play.
"Actually, I don't know much about the atomic bomb." Wang Rufei said unusually frankly: "I don't know anything about how big it is, except that I know how powerful it is, but the explosion of 20,000 tons of TNT will be very terrifying." At the same time, I can tell you that there are two very different objections among our scientists as to whether or not to drop an atomic bomb. One believes that this weapon can end the war as soon as possible, while the other believes that it will bring irreparable damage to humanity. But that's not what we're going to care about, all we have to do is fulfill the order and put what we have to throw into the set goal."
Speaking of this, he was silent for a moment: "Now I can tell you the target of the throw, the United States!" ”
The students were stunned for a moment, and then burst into a loud cheer again.
They knew that the war was in full swing, but they could not participate in the war except for training and training. And now, the hope of ending the war is in their hands.
They will personally lead this scene that will shock humanity
"Ready, boys." This is the last sentence that Wang Rufei said.
Now, the scene that will shake the world is about to be staged.
In December 1943, the world war had reached its most critical year, in which the [***] team continued to advance invincible in all the battlefields of the world.
This year, a large group of pilots with a mysterious mission are ready
The advent of the atomic bomb will inevitably change the fate of the world and bring infinite harm to the world, but whoever masters this powerful and terrifying weapon first will have the dominant power in the world.
In 1944, after Britain announced its surrender and the Chinese and German air forces gained air supremacy, Wang Hengyue, President of the Republic of China, once again urged the United States to surrender as soon as possible in Berlin:
"The war should not go on any longer, nor should the slaughter of mankind continue any longer, put an end to this terrible war, let us return to the negotiating table, and I will assure you that world peace will be carried out in an orderly manner under the leadership of China and Germany." The only thing we need to do now is to put aside our own prejudices and rebuild the world shattered by war, which should be our common goal. I hope that you will accept the cease-fire conditions proposed by China and Germany, completely lay down your arms, and China and Germany will ensure that the lives and property of the American people will no longer be threatened
A few days ago my generals talked to me about using the secret weapons we had at our disposal to end this war, but I refused, which I thought would do more harm to the United States. But if the war continues, I will have to consider the advice that my generals have made to me, which is the most terrible thing for the United States and the whole world, and the least desirable thing for all, but the final decision rests with the American political axe. We have made our promise and will firmly implement it, but the choice is not ours.
I will order my generals and my soldiers to exercise the utmost restraint for the period of May 30, 1944. When that deadline has passed, I will have to sign an order to put an end to the war with the secret weapons we have at our disposal, and we will not be held accountable for it. ”
This is an ultimatum for China and Germany to the United States.
What is interesting is what is the secret weapon repeatedly mentioned by President Wang Hengyue in his ultimatum? I'm afraid that no one but the Chinese themselves can know this secret.
At the time of the announcement of the president's ultimatum, the US political axe flatly refused to surrender. They firmly believe that they can continue to fight, and believe that the so-called secret weapon of the Chinese is nothing more than intimidation there.
All the advanced weapons have been displayed on the battlefield, and what advanced secret weapons will the Chinese have?
The U.S. political axe doesn't believe it, but China is already in action, and when the ultimatum time comes, they will throw their weapons at the U.S. without hesitation.
At that time, no one else will be able to prevent this tragedy from happening!
