readx; In order to force Chen Jingyun to accept the demands of the Chinese delegation at the negotiating table, Chen Jingyun had already decided to take the next step of military action, and at the enlarged meeting of the National Military Council, Admiral Cheng Biguang of the Navy put forward the operational concept of landing in the Ryukyus, and this idea was also supported by the army when the navy could guarantee sea supremacy in the Ryukyu waters.

For the Army, as long as the Navy can transport troops and can ensure supply and transportation in subsequent operations, then the Army is sure to take the Ryukyus.

Since the navy and the army have sworn to Chen Jingyun, and Chen Jingyun personally hopes to launch an operation of an appropriate scale, completely crush his confidence and end the war. On the same day, the operational plan for landing in the Ryukyus was decided, and the specific operational plan had to be carefully considered.

After this enlarged meeting was dismissed, the navy, army, and air force each sent heavyweight generals to hold a small-scale meeting of the three armed forces, and the main body of the meeting was naturally to discuss how to formulate a Ryukyu battle plan.

Although the main body of the Ryukyu operation was the navy, the cooperation between the army and the air force was also indispensable, and needless to say, if the army was able to land smoothly, the army units would be the main combat force after the subsequent landing, while the air force would not directly participate in the Ryukyu operation.

The reason why the combat planes of the Air Force do not participate in the war against the Ryukyus is mainly because of the distance, which is located more than 800 kilometers northeast of Taipei and about 650 kilometers southeast of Shanghai, and this distance makes it difficult for the vast majority of the planes in the Air Force to reach the airspace over the Ryukyus, and only the latest modification of the B4 bomber and the B8 twin-engine tactical bomber that has just been in service for a long time in the Air Force can reach the airspace over the Ryukyus. However, the Air Force is preparing to launch a large-scale air raid on the southwestern region of the mainland, and a large number of B4 and B8 bombers have already been transferred to North Korea, and it is simply impossible to deploy enough long-range bombers to support the Ryukyu operation.

The fact that the Air Force was not directly involved in the Ryukyu War did not mean that the Air Force could stay out of the battle, but that the Air Force needed to contain and attract the attention of the Tsushima Strait in southern Korea and prepare for a large-scale air attack on the mainland of the Tsushima Strait. Doing so will not only attract the attention of the vast majority of the forces, but will also weaken the forces against the Ryukyus. On the other hand, these high-ranking members of the State Military Commission also hoped that they would be able to severely damage the war potential of the "Ben" through the large-scale bombing of the "Ben" by the air force, and inflict a large number of casualties on the "Ben" himself, so as to pressure the "Ben" to submit at the negotiating table.

When the joint meeting of the three armed services ended, the three armed forces began preparatory operations one after another, and the army side wanted to transfer the 47th Division, which had already completed its sea-crossing and landing training, from the northeast back to Shanghai and Hangzhou to wait for the landing operation. What can be predicted is that in order to conquer the Ryukyus, only two divisions will definitely not be enough, and there must be more troops, so some troops stationed in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have also begun to train intensively to cross the sea to adapt to the surname, and a large number of materials have begun to accumulate in Shanghai and Hangzhou.

The navy also carried out rest and recuperation work on the warships in the main fleet, and sent a large number of small-scale formation activities in the waters of the East China Sea, and during this preparation period, the aircraft carrier Songshan also officially entered the navy and prepared to participate in the Ryukyu operation.

The Songshan aircraft carrier, China's latest generation of aircraft carriers, began to be designed in 1925, because the remaining available aircraft carrier tonnage of the Chinese Navy at that time was only 50,000 tons, so the design tonnage standard has been determined from the beginning, that is, 25,000 tons.

The design of the Songshan continues the design idea of the first two aircraft carriers in China, with a single-story open hangar, starboard island, 75 mm at the end of the main armor belt on the waterline side, 35 mm on the flight deck, and 75 mm on the hangar deck. The maximum speed is 32 knots, and the cruising range is 14,000 nautical miles at 16 knots.

The above design data is basically a continuation of the previous two-stage aircraft carrier, but with the increase of tonnage, these data are correspondingly amplified, and the internal design has also been optimized to a certain extent. However, to a certain extent, the basic design of the Songshan still cannot be separated from the basic structure of China's first-generation aircraft carrier Huashan, but then again, the development of modern aircraft carriers because of Chen Jingyun, so the first generation of aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy has all the characteristics of modern aircraft carriers, as long as there are no major technological changes or strategic changes, basically China's aircraft carrier design is unlikely to change much in the past 20 years.

At the time of design, the Songshan was also designed to carry 85 aircraft, but the hangar and deck of the Songshan were larger than the previous two-stage aircraft carrier, and in fact, it was possible to install more than 90 aircraft, but the Navy did not plan to expand the scale of the carrier-based aircraft wing for the time being, not because it was not capable, but because it did not have this demand.

Because the more aircraft carried, the more troublesome the transfer command on the aircraft carrier will be, and the current threat faced by the Chinese Navy is just that, there is no need to sacrifice the transfer command of the entire aircraft carrier in exchange for carrying more carrier-based aircraft.

The Songshan was designed in 1925 and started construction in 1928, although it started several months later than the Taishan ship of the same class, but after the outbreak of the war at the end of last year, the Jiangnan Shipyard, which was responsible for the construction of the Taishan, was responsible for the maintenance of a large number of damaged warships, resulting in some delays in the construction progress of the Taishan. The Songshan built at the Qingdao Naval Shipyard was fully guaranteed, and the wartime construction speed was adopted, and last year's naval and air war had just ended, the Songshan had completed the main project and launched, and then carried out intense outfitting and sea trials, these works originally took at least a year to complete, but they were quickly compressed during the war, and the outfitting and sea trials were completed in just four months, and then immediately entered the navy service.

In order to allow the Songshan to quickly form up its combat effectiveness, the Chinese Navy directly transferred officers and men from the existing four aircraft carriers to stationed in the Songshan, and the carrier-based aircraft wing was much simpler. Considering that the Taishan will be launched in the near future and will be put into service in the next four months, the Navy has also formed the Sixth Carrier-based Aircraft Aviation Wing, and some veterans will be transferred from the carrier-based aircraft aviation wings, and then some novices will be added to form a new carrier-based wing, and will be ready to be deployed to the Taishan.

When the navy is ready, a very large fleet will be formed to carry out a landing operation on the Ryukyus, which will not only cover the army's operations on the Ryukyus, but the navy itself will also hope to take advantage of this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the main force of the navy.

When the navy was preparing for the Ryukyu War, Busan, in the south of Korea, had great military value as the terminus of the Korean railway and an excellent port since it was conquered by China, so after the conquest of Busan, it was accepted by the Chinese side and operated as an advance base.

In order to accommodate a large number of planes entering Busan, the Air Force carried out a large-scale expansion of the Busan field airfield originally used by the Chinese army, and built two concrete artillery shells that were 1,000 meters long. With the Busan Field Airfield as the core, the Air Force has also built two other field airfields, forming a Busan Air Base Group.

With the successive stationing of air force units, there are more than 500 combat planes in the Busan Air Base Group, where most of the F3 fighters of the Chinese Air Force are concentrated, and almost all of China's most modern B8 twin-engine bombers are concentrated.

Looking at the neatly arranged bomber groups at the airport, Lieutenant General Huang Feihang felt an indescribable excitement in his heart, and he knew that it would not be long before these bombers would set off to carry out a large-scale bombing of the mainland of Ben, and the scale of the bombing was definitely the largest in human history.

After the air force entered Busan, although it also launched several bombing operations against the mainland, the scale of the bombing was not large, and the largest number of bombing planes was only about 20 planes, and the bombing targets were mainly air bases in the southwest region. In order to carry out large-scale bombing of the homeland, the Air Force has transferred most of the B4 bombers, and has also transferred the B8 twin-engine tactical bombers that have just been in service for less than two years, and there are only about 30 B8 bombers in total, and this time the Air Force has almost all of them.

The B8 bomber is a new generation of tactical bombers developed by the Air Force in the mid-to-late twenties, and its original design goal was to replace the B4 bomber. The surname of the B4 bomber can be considered good in the twenties, but the development speed of the aircraft in this era is too fast, and the aircraft will be updated after three or five years, so the B4 bomber has begun to be powerless in recent years, and by today in 1931, the actual surname can no longer meet the needs of the Chinese Air Force. This situation was also expected by the Chinese Air Force, and around 1925 it had begun to tender for the design of a new generation of twin-engine bombers.

The new generation of twin-engine bomber bidding is not the old and the most powerful Chuzhou aircraft company, but the early twenties of the establishment of Nanchang Guang'an aircraft company, Nanchang Guang'an aircraft company at the beginning of the business is to manufacture civil aircraft, and later got the Air Force transport aircraft order, its design and manufacture of C3 transport aircraft is the first generation of the Chinese Air Force full-time transport aircraft, so that Guang'an aircraft company survived in the domestic aircraft manufacturing market. As China's all-metal aircraft manufacturing technology matured, the Guang'an Aircraft Company introduced the first all-metal transport aircraft, the 'GA-6', which could carry ten passengers and cruise at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, with a range of 1,500 kilometers. As soon as this passenger aircraft was launched, it was warmly sought after by the market, and it can also be said that it directly promoted the development of domestic civil aviation, making the domestic air routes between major cities set up one after another, and the aircraft used were almost all GA6.

GA6's surname is superior, not only occupies the domestic civil aviation market, but also exports a small amount to the United States and Europe.
