"How's the scale?"

The president in a wheelchair spoke calmly.

The anti-war pressure in the country has always been there, and the degree and scale have changed with the change of the situation.

Now the opening up of the second battlefield has suffered a serious setback, with the loss of more than a dozen divisions, and the fleet and bombers have also suffered heavy losses.

It was a huge failure.

The opposition could not let go of this opportunity, and it was bound to agitate for large-scale anti-war demonstrations and so on.

But he was prepared.

He has already prepared a way to deal with it, it is very simple, just give a reason for war, it really doesn't work, and some special methods can be used. And according to the intelligence, this time he really didn't need to do it himself.

"This time it's huge."

The man in the suit spoke with anxiety:

"There were tens of thousands of people marching and a large number of parliamentarians participating, and I have asked the secretary to hand over the specific list to you."

"Hmm."

The president in a wheelchair nodded, his expression unchanged.

Seeing that the president looked calm and seemed to be confident, the man in the suit stopped talking and sat down and said no more.

After the meeting, everyone left one after another, and the president called Director Donovan, and the two held a secret meeting in the conference room.

"Are you sure it's that day?"

The president's tone in a wheelchair finally became a little nervous:

"How's the scale? How many bombers are there and what is the bomb load? Where to fly from and where to bomb to? ”

This time it was not Pearl Harbor, and he couldn't afford not to be nervous, after all, there was a big difference between an overseas military base and a home city.

The bombing of a military port on an overseas island and the loss of a fleet may only cause anger among the people, but for the home city, anger may even cause panic.

and possibly other ripple effects.

After a series of questions, Donovan paused for a while before answering:

"What is certain is that the Germans are planning to bomb our homeland, and that General Kesselring is in charge."

"The other side has done a very high job of secrecy, so we are currently unable to confirm its aircraft model, aircraft size, take-off location, bomb load and other data, bombing destination, and specific time."

"But taking into account the distance of Europe from us, and the fact that the Germans did not have bases close to the territory of our country."

"Based on this speculation, either the other side will use new ultra-long-range bombers to take off from the coast of Europe and bomb our mainland, or they will use submarines to transport seaplanes and secretly lurk on the east coast to carry out secret bombing."

"The former is very unlikely."

"Even if China's B29 bomber is currently in power, the maximum effective range is only 6,000 kilometers, which is just enough to travel from Europe to our mainland, and it is impossible to carry out bombing missions, and it is very unlikely that the Germans can develop a similar heavy bomber in a short time."

"Therefore, I prefer the latter, the Germans use submarine-carrying aircraft to bomb the east coast of our country at close range, and the purpose of the bombing is not to cause much damage to our country, but to boost domestic morale and create a victory in public opinion."

"After all, the Germans are now victorious on both fronts, the abundance of food has stabilized the internal environment, and according to reports submitted by the undercover people, as the Germans have relaxed the food supply, the soil for the partisans to survive is gradually disappearing."

"Still."

"There's another possibility."

"The Germans have developed an intercontinental strategic bomber with an effective range of more than 12,000 kilometers after loading bombs, but this kind of aircraft requires a lot of economic and industrial investment, as well as a large number of technological breakthroughs.

"Theoretically, it is even more impossible for the Germans, who are fully engaged in the war, to develop a strategic bomber of this scale."

Speaking of this, Donovan paused and raised his tone:

"However, the above is all speculation based on sporadic intelligence, which cannot be confirmed, and I don't know what the actual situation is."

Chen Fan's investigation failed, the strange changes that followed Operation Overlord, the huge equipment and supplies that suddenly appeared in the Germans, and, that mysterious, strange technology.

All of this hit Donovan hard and hit his confidence hard.

After speaking, he handed the president an investigation report, which contained various investigations of enemy intelligence and various data materials.

"Hmm."

The president nodded, waved his hand, and motioned for Donovan to leave.

······

Hengyang.

"General, separate regiment liaison telegram."

Inside the headquarters, the staff officers, General Fang and others were making plans for tomorrow's reception, and a staff officer ran in outside the door.

"Read."

Although a military meeting was underway, it stands to reason that at this time, unless it is an urgent military situation, everything will stand aside, but since it is a telegram from an independent regiment, General Fang still decided to listen to it.

"The Independent Regiment said."

Staff Officers Concisely and to the Point:

"In the afternoon of this day, its aviation unit dispatched 150 sorties of attack planes to bomb the 66th Division and the 17th Brigade of the Devil's Regiment approaching Hengyang, destroying most of the heavy equipment and successfully blocking the enemy's advance."

"What?"

Fang Jinjun looked at it suddenly, and his tone was full of disbelief:

"You say it again?"

The rest of the people in the headquarters also looked at each other in unison, staring at the staff officer holding the telegram with wide eyes.

"The Independent Regiment sent more than 100 sorties of attack planes this afternoon to bomb the 66th Division and the 17th Brigade of the Devils approaching Hengyang, destroying a large amount of their equipment and baggage.

"Great."

"Haha, that's great."

Hearing this, everyone, including General Fang, cheered in unison.

They were still having a headache just now, how to deal with the 66th Division and the 17th Brigade of the Devil Regiment closest to Hengyang, preparing to let the Independent Regiment reconnoiter the location, and then see if they could block it with an airplane.

As a result, before I mentioned it on my side, people had already blown up these devils.

It's so happy to have teammates like that.

"Improve the battle plan as soon as possible, and let Hou Li send the battle plan to Commander Kong of the Independent Regiment and ask for the cooperation of the fighters of the Independent Regiment."

General Fang's tone was excited.

"Yes."

The staff officer's tone was equally excited.

······

The next day.

Inside the city of Hengyang.

"That's what they're going to do."

Wang Xikui looked at the reserves of each position that were transferred, and squinted his eyes:

"Attack?"

As a senior veteran and elite shooter, Wang Xikui did not serve as a front-line company platoon commander and then a battalion commander like other veterans, but chose to develop in the direction of individual combat.

But after fighting with the Independent Regiment for so long, the vision of the overall situation has been tempered.

Even if he didn't pay special attention, he still noticed the movement in the city, and vaguely felt that the defenders of Hengyang seemed to be preparing to fight back.

"Almost all positions are increasing their firepower, and at the same time transferring troops in the direction of the old estuary, it is clear."

Duan Peng said affirmatively:

"They are planning to mobilize troops to attack from the mouth of the old river, and they should be responding to the surrounding troops."

Although he joined the army not long after the Battle of Heyuan County, Duan Peng was amazingly talented, and he had been following the special squad, and he carried out operations on a small scale but with great impact, and his vision was very broad.

"Pick up the surrounding troops?"

Wang Xikui's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although in the past few days, he has killed devils to the cool, but offense is much more interesting than defense.

"Let's go."

Looking at Wang Xikui's eyes, Duan Peng smiled, touched the semi-automatic rifle on his body, and the latest air-to-ground communication equipment, and said in a smug tone:

"Let's go and see."

"Okay."

Wang Xikui immediately agreed.

······

"Commander."

At this time, Songxian and Kong Jie also received the battle plan formulated by the staff officers of the Tenth Army in Hengyang overnight:

"This is the latest battle plan of the Tenth Army, and they plan to send 4,500 men to attack north, open a passage of more than 30 kilometers, and receive the nearly 10,000 remnants gathered from the north into Hengyang City."

"So I ask us to send attack planes to cooperate, provide them with air support, and stop the devil's troops."

"Attack?"

Hearing this news, Kong Jie was stunned at first, he really didn't expect that in the face of being surrounded by devils three times his own, the defenders of Hengyang would still have the courage to attack.

But then, Kong Jie laughed out loud, and even laughed out loud.

In this hearty laughter, Master Kong's eyes were full of emotion, and his expression was full of memories.

"Interesting, really interesting."

After a long time, Kong Jie put away his smile and muttered loudly.

"Commander?"

Seeing that Kong Jie didn't know what to say, the staff officer on the side said.

"Inform the Aviation Brigade and prepare to fully support the Tenth Army."

Kong Jie put away the telegram of the Tenth Army and ordered:

"In addition, let the reconnaissance plane take off, find the location of the remnants of the 193rd Division and other remnants of the fruit, and expel all the devil troops in the vicinity."

"Yes."

The staff officer immediately went to deliver the order.
