Despite the complete and thorough fulfillment, there is basically nothing too likely. Americans have American considerations, and they will never do anything to the detriment of what they consider to be American interests. But as long as they roughly fulfill it, it is enough to resist the United Nations, or catch a fast train for the industrial development of the Chinese. And as long as the foundation is laid, will it be just an ethereal desire to truly develop and grow?

Yang Zhen stood in front of the window for more than two hours, and only returned to his desk after thoroughly smoothing out his thoughts. Pick up the phone and go to the aviation command. During the call, Yang Zhen did not have any ink. I only told the commander of the air force on that side that if the weather permitted, the time for their action would be set for 9 o'clock tonight.

Originally, Yang Zhending's sortie time was in the early morning of the 8th, but after several hesitations, he still gave the air force a plan to take off in the early morning of the 8th, and temporarily stopped. However, all units of the air force participating in the battle must be ready to leave at any time. As for the time, it is better to wait for your own notification.

And now, since the last stone in my heart has landed, it is natural to implement it as soon as possible. Therefore, after receiving the monitoring report from the Ministry of Communications, after repeated calculations, he set the time for the final execution at 9 o'clock tonight. When taking off at night and passing through the Sea of Japan, it was a warning ship that could avoid the Japanese army.

As for the plan of action, it has been drawn up a long time ago, and there is basically nothing to say in this regard. The difference is that the time for action has not yet been finalized. Because before it was determined whether the Japanese bombs would fall on the American troops at Pearl Harbor according to the historical trajectory he once knew, Yang Zhen was still hesitant about the determination of the final action.

Therefore, the plan has been drawn up, some technical preparations have been completed, and the troops have successively carried out some relative training. But in the end, Yang Zhen still revised it several times. Of course, some of this is due to meteorological reasons, but the main reason is that Yang Zhen's final decision has not yet been made.

However, under Yang Zhen's request, all the preparatory work of the aviation force has been completed so far. As soon as the final decision is made, action can be taken at any time if the weather conditions allow. Therefore, Yang Zhen didn't need to say anything, just tell the air force the time of the final action.

The planes and pilots over there who are ready to participate in the operation are already ready. All the bombs and fuel needed have been put in place. Therefore, Yang Zhen's order was simple and clear, and the reply of the aviation command, which had a detailed grasp of the situation, did not drag the slightest bit of mud and water.

Putting down the phone in his hand, Yang Zhen wanted to call the political department again, and asked Gao Yumin to immediately select the best two officers to shoot documentaries, and one of the camera officers brought the best camera and video camera, and immediately rushed to the aviation headquarters to report, and in the afternoon, there was an AT-7 high-level bombing transport training plane to send them to Dongning.

After receiving a call from Yang Zhen, Gao Yumin, who had long been aware of the operation, didn't say a word, and immediately sent someone to select the best photography officer and equipment to send to Dongning. As for why the air raid on Tokyo needed a camera officer and related equipment, the reason is also very simple.

Military action is a continuation of the political zhì, and the political zhì also needs to be struggled. In particular, this air raid on Tokyo was the first time that the Chinese really carried out a military attack on the Japanese mainland. It was also the first time since the Meiji Restoration that a foreigner bomb had been dropped on Japan. Not only is the military meaning heavy, but the political meaning is even more important.

If we can shoot some good video materials, we can not only study the gains and losses of this air raid, but also express to the United States and Britain the determination of the Anti-Japanese Union and the Japanese army to fight a decisive battle to the end. More importantly, there is also the morale of the people in the country, as well as propaganda in politics. The Chinese, who have always only been bombed, also have the strength to bomb the Japanese mainland, and this can be imagined to boost the morale of the people at home.

Therefore, in addition to the bomber group and technical support aircraft, there will also be a German-made HE-111 medium bomber accompanying the bombing. The only German bomber in the Soviet-made bomber group dispatched by the Anti-Union will not be a bomb, but three photojournalists.

This is a plane captured by the Soviet army after the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, the German air raid on Moscow was lost and landed on the Soviet airfield. Although the Germans have been victorious on the ground for most of the time so far. And the skies of the western part of the Soviet Union are still in the hands of the Germans.

But it does not mean that the planes of the German army will not fall into the hands of the Soviets for one reason or another. The plane, like its few planes that have fallen into Soviet hands, was captured by the Soviets because it got lost during an air raid deep into the Soviet rear, or because it was wounded and forced to land.

This plane, along with its five comrades-in-arms, was used by the Soviets as a partner with the Ye 2 bomber in exchange for the Su 2 light bomber that was originally sold to the Anti-Japanese Union. It's just that this plane is the most intact of the five planes used by the Soviets as a head. As for the remaining four, they can only be used as parts suppliers.

Originally, the air force was going to dispatch a C47 as the landline of these three special passengers to carry out this special mission. However, the C-47 transport aircraft is a transport aircraft after all, and although the range is sufficient, there is still a big gap between the flight speed and the Il-4 bomber.

Once you join the bomber group and participate in the bombing process, it will delay the movement of the entire group, which will undoubtedly add unnecessary risks. But if the bomber group is the first to break away, then after stabbing the hornet's nest, this transport plane, which does not have the most basic self-defense capabilities, will have no chance of surviving at all.

And the number of Il-4 bombers was limited, and the aviation was unwilling to spend a single aircraft to specialize in this task. In the end, pulling and pulling back and forth, the aircraft was selected to have enough range and a small amount of firepower for self-defense. The most important thing is that the German-made bombers are fast enough not to drag down the actions of the entire formation.

The aviation, which had been prepared for a long time, was waiting for this order. After receiving Yang Zhen's notice, Fang Ziyi immediately rushed to Dongning to take charge in person. Before he arrived in Dongning, the ground staff at the two major airports of Dongning and Ning'an, who had already received the order, immediately began the final preparations.

Although I don't know what the combat target is for such a large group of aircraft concentrated this time. But it was the first time I saw the ground staff of such a large fleet of aircraft concentrated by the Anti-United Nations at one time, and I knew in my heart that this must be a big operation. There is even a faint expectation in the hearts of many people, fantasizing that the ultimate goal of these planes is Japan.

In particular, the superiors demanded that the fuel tanks of these aircraft be fully filled. It has made some clever people firm up this view. If it were to attack a target in the northeast, there would be no need to add such a large amount of fuel. Bombs should be hung as much as possible, rather than fueling fuel that is not necessary at all.

With this idea, the ground staff at the Dongning base are quite motivated. Technicians were busy making the last checks on the planes participating in the war, communications personnel were busy debugging the plane's instruments and communication devices one last time, and ordnance personnel were busy adding fuses to bombs.

And in order to ensure the safety of the two airfields that are piled up with napalm and fuel at the moment, as well as all the bombers of the Anti-Japanese Union, don't be attacked by the Japanese army at the last moment. In the vicinity of Dongning and Ning'an airports, several antiaircraft artillery companies, all the ground artillery personnel, were staring at the sky vigilantly.

In the sky around the airfield, two combat squadrons of P-40 fighters were also cruising in the air. They were ordered to shoot down any flying object that trespassed into the airspace around the airport without being notified by the ground command post, including the Anti-United Nations plane. At this time, over the airport, it can be said that not even a single sparrow can fly in.

And what exactly are those ground staff who are suddenly motivated are thinking, this is not what Fang Ziyi should consider now. As soon as he arrived in Dongning, he studied the battle plan and route with Dawn, who led the team. As the commander of the air force, these Il-4 bombers dispatched are almost all the capital of the anti-United Nations medium bombers, and Fang Ziyi can be said to be quite cautious.

The photographers who came with him at random, who still didn't know what they were going to do, were locked up in a separate room. They were not allowed to shoot any footage prepared before the war, and they were not even allowed to go out of the door of this room.

These officials of the political department could not bear this disguised closure and wanted to protest. Before they could say anything, they were glared back with cold eyes by the two officers of the Military Region Security Department who came with them, who had not said a word along the way. In desperation, the three of them could only stay in their rooms honestly, checking the equipment in their hands over and over again.

Fang Ziyi's plan was quite tight, except for a few pilot crews, all the participants were still unclear that their target this time would be Tokyo, the capital of Japan. Originally, they thought it was just a night flight training, but when they saw the mountains of live ammunition piled up on the airport, they realized that tonight's operation was not training.

It was not until 6 o'clock that all the battle plans and route maps were distributed to the pilots of the participating crews after dinner. And from this moment to the full start of the operation, it has been less than three hours. That is, until now, all the crews involved in the war did not know exactly where the target of the bombing was.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Yang Zhen took a C47 transport plane and quietly arrived at Dongning Airport. At this time, Yang Zhen's arrival at the airport was self-evident. It was to boost morale, as well as to see off all the bomber groups that participated in the war. And Yang Zhen is doing the same thing at Ning'an Airport, Li Yanping is also doing the same thing.

After coming to the airport, Yang Zhen and Fang Ziyi met with all the participating crew members in the airport canteen, and of course, the photography officers who were locked up for secrecy after coming to Dongning. The arrival of Yang Zhen, the No. 1 of the whole army, personally saw them off, which made the participants whose morale was extremely high because the target of this sortie was actually Tokyo, Japan, even more enthusiastic.

At present, all preparations have been completely prepared, and the time for the start of the operation has entered the countdown, whether it is Yang Zhen from Dongning Airport or Li Yanping from Ning'an Airport, the conversation time is very short, and it only lasted half an hour before it ended. The rest depends on how far these pilots can go.

However, Yang Zhen unswervingly believed that these best pilots selected from among the bomber pilots of the Anti-United Nations Air Force would definitely successfully complete the mission and would be the first to win. Because he saw a sense of confidence in the eyes of these pilots who were as young as himself.

By 8:20 a.m., all the planes participating in the battle had finished their bombs, and all the pilots had boarded their planes. Ground crews also began to carry out a final meteorological check and to remove the barriers in front and behind the aircraft's wheels. All the planes involved in the battle have started their engines and taxied into the runway one after another.
