Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 2292 Eyes close to the airport

An unexpected small-scale air battle ended quickly. Liu Cuigang, the Qingdao ground air commander of the aviation force, received the report from Le Yiqin. He did not relax, although the old man used the most agile movements to eliminate a squadron of Japanese troops.

The fighter jets ensured that the large-scale bombing formation did not expose the target in advance, but it is not necessarily known whether it would alert the Japanese aviation forces on the Korean Peninsula?

Liu Cuigang thought for a moment and ordered: "Order, all ground radar stations are fully monitoring the movements of all Japanese airports on the Korean Peninsula and the Liaodong Peninsula. If any abnormalities are found, each radar station can directly report to the air!"

After issuing the order, Liu Cuigang looked at his watch and silently calculated the time. In more than fifty minutes, the bomber formation that attacked the Japanese airport on the Korean Peninsula would reach the target airspace. Because the bombing distance was different, the bomber formation responsible for the Liaodong Peninsula

, as the second echelon, the takeoff was delayed for 30 minutes. At this moment, the flight distance from the bombing target was about 50 minutes.

Liu Cuigang's eyes turned to the empty airport, "I hope the Japanese air force doesn't notice the critical fifty minutes!" He thought to himself.

"Reporting to the commander, the Chengshanjiao Radar Station reported that more than 60 aircraft suddenly took off from the Japanese Seoul Airport. Because the distance is still far, it is currently impossible to determine the specific aircraft type, but according to the route, they are facing our air formation.

We're in the airspace!" A combat staff officer reported hurriedly after putting down the phone.

"Huh? - Can't determine the model of the aircraft?" Liu Cuigang frowned, "It seems that the small-scale air battle just now killed a squadron of the Japanese aviation force, or aroused the alert of the Japanese commander in Seoul. A fighter squadron suddenly disappeared,

Everything must have happened for a reason. Before the Japanese aviation commander could determine the situation, it should have been a reconnaissance plane that took off!" He came to a conclusion instantly.

"Reporting to the commander, the Liugong Island Radar Station reported that the Japanese aircraft taking off from Seoul Airport were divided into two parts. One part consisted of twenty-four aircraft, and the flight altitude and speed were higher than the other part. It was initially confirmed that they were Japanese aircraft.

Zero fighter!" Another staff officer also reported.

Liu Cuigang suddenly raised his head. His eyes flashed with a frightening light, "The commander of the Japanese air force is a person. Fighters accompany reconnaissance planes, which can be used for reconnaissance and air combat. If the reconnaissance plane is shot down, the Zero fighter can also escape at high speed.

And ensured that the message was passed back. It seems that the Japanese aviation forces on the Korean Peninsula were alerted!" He quickly judged.

"At the ground radar station, are there any reports of unusual behavior at the Japanese military airport on the Liaodong Peninsula?" Liu Cuigang asked.

"We haven't received the report yet!" the staff officer replied succinctly.

"Get through to Commander Le right away. I want to speak to him!" Liu Cuigang walked to the command podium and ordered the staff to arrive. The situation is okay. The Japanese aviation forces in the Liaodong Peninsula have not responded yet, which means that the Seoul Airport

The Japanese commander was just doubting, otherwise, there would not only be a mixed formation of more than 60 reconnaissance planes and fighter jets, but also a large number of Japanese fighter jets taking off to fight!

Le Yiqin, who was carefully observing the airspace situation on the airborne radar screen, actually did not relax because he had eaten a Japanese fighter squadron. Thinking about it in another way, if it were him, a fighter squadron had inexplicably lost contact.

I’m afraid I won’t ignore it, right?

"So, what kind of reaction will the commander of the Little Japanese Air Force make?" Le Yiqin was making various possible judgments in her mind when she suddenly heard Liu Cuigang's voice, "Yiqin, I'm Liu Cuigang, I just took the call.

According to reports from ground radar stations, more than 60 Japanese aircraft took off from the Japanese airport in Seoul. Among them, it can be preliminarily determined that there were 24 Zero fighters and the rest were reconnaissance aircraft! There were no abnormalities in the Japanese aviation forces in the direction of the Liaodong Peninsula.

move!"

Le Yiqin grinned, "Cui Gang, did you scare the snake? Fortunately, we only alerted a snake - our plan should be temporarily changed, and we should attack it!" He said, his tone not showing any surprise at all.

Qingdao ground air pointing, Liu Cuigang smiled slightly, what does tacit cooperation mean, "Yiqin, I think the same way. The escorting fighter formation invested more than two-thirds of its troops and immediately attacked at full speed. Before the Japanese fighter group had time to take off,

Previously, all of them were killed on the airport runway. The lurking groups of the special operations detachment were activated in advance to indicate the targets and the movements of the Japanese airport to our fighter group!"

"Hahaha!" Le Yiqin laughed, "Cui Gang, it is just what I want and has no impact on the overall plan. Okay, I will issue the order immediately, and the intelligence of the special operations team will be immediately transmitted to the commanders of each escort fighter formation.

Here, first destroy the Japs’ fighter jets, and then let our bomber formation bomb the rest!”

Hearing Le Yiqin's confident and optimistic words, Liu Cuigang's initially anxious mood calmed down instantly, "Okay, Yiqin, I'll leave it to you. The ground air controller will provide intelligence to the fighter formation at any time!"

Le Yiqin opened the formation communication channel: "I am the air formation commander Le Yiqin. I order each escort fighter formation to use two-thirds of the fighter jets to immediately move out of the bomber formation and attack their respective target airports as quickly as possible.

, I don’t ask about the specifics of how to fight. I only ask for one thing. After the bomber formation starts bombing, not a single Japanese fighter jet can be seen in the sky!"

The Seoul Airport in the center of the Korean Peninsula is the largest base of the First Joint Air Force of the Japanese and Korean Garrison Forces. More than four-fifths of the Japanese military aircraft are concentrated at this airport. It is probably the most heavily guarded Japanese military airport in the entire Korean Peninsula.

The airport is located on the outskirts of Seoul, in an extremely vast valley surrounded by mountains. The entire airport is not only tightly protected by five or six barbed wire fences.

There are also Japanese soldiers leading big wolfdogs who patrol continuously. There are watchtowers several stories high around the airport. When night falls, huge searchlights swing back and forth, illuminating the surrounding area of ​​the airport. Even if there is a slight movement,

watchtower

The heavy machine gun mounted on it will sweep down a shower of bullets, and then the Japanese soldiers leading the big wolfdog will conduct a blanket search. Judging from the tightness of the Japanese army's security of the airport, I am afraid it is just a mouse.

Don't even try to sneak in!

There is a hilltop about two kilometers away from the Japanese Seoul Airport. Although it is not high, it is in an excellent location. Standing on the top of the hill, you can have a panoramic view of the Seoul Airport. The hilltop is covered with bushes and waist-deep wormwood.

It was almost late June, and the grass and trees had turned green. On the hill, there was a Japanese observation post, a wooden sentry box, with five Japanese soldiers stationed inside. The leader was a corps leader named Nishimura.

Observation posts like this are everywhere on the hills surrounding the Seoul Airport. Layers of barbed wire, searchlights, patrols with big wolfdogs, and sentry boxes on the commanding heights of the periphery make the Seoul Airport guarded tightly. In addition, there are three areas within the airport's radius.

The area within ten kilometers was designated as a military restricted area, and all the original Korean residents were forcibly relocated. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Japanese army's Seoul Airport was a dragon's nest and a tiger's den.

Colonel Chu Tian, ​​leader of the special operations detachment, led a team that has been lurking near Seoul Airport for two days. The team he led included Lieutenant Colonel Qi Hanzhi of the detachment staff office and two teams directly under the detachment, totaling two

Thirteen people, starting from the night of June 17, took advantage of a night of light rain to get close to the Japanese army's Seoul Airport. However, they tried to get in but were unable to do so.

Twenty-three members of Chutian's team circled the perimeter of the Japanese airport, looking for opportunities all day long. However, with no way to get closer, they found an extremely hidden cave, hid in the cave, and gnawed for two days.

Fortunately, this mission is to indicate the bombing target for the aviation force. There is no need to go deep into the airport to conduct the battlefield. It is enough to observe and determine the position from the outside. Otherwise, Chutian will definitely create a tight defense system for the Japanese army.

, and feel a big headache.

After eating dry food and drinking spring water for two days, I finally learned from the radio that this morning, the aviation force was about to start a large-scale bombing. After confirming for the last time, the coordinates and orientation data of the Japanese Seoul Airport were sent to the Qingdao base.

, even if the Chutian group mission was successfully completed, the entire group would feel relaxed and could evacuate only after confirming the bombing effect.

To be honest, hiding in a cave and not seeing the sun for two days, these special operations detachment members who are accustomed to activities are really frustrated. Chief of Staff Qi Hanzhi took out a pack of compressed biscuits and handed it to Chu Tian, ​​"Detachment Captain,

You'd better eat something

! Damn it, I’m finally over it. This task is not a job for humans! Fortunately, you had the foresight to bring an extra day’s worth of dry food when you arrived. Otherwise, we would be hungry now!

"He muttered with a grumble.

Chutian took the compressed biscuit, broke off a piece and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly, but found it was too dry. He quickly took the water bottle and drank a few sips, swallowing the compressed biscuit into his stomach, and then glared at Qi Hanzhi.

At a glance, "Qi Hanzhi, you are the chief of staff, why are you complaining so much that other team members hear it? What will they think? - What? Isn't this much easier than invading the interior of the Japanese military airport for reconnaissance?"

Qi Hanzhi smiled "hehe" and didn't care, and said: "Captain of the detachment, didn't I just say it casually? I just stayed in this dark cave for two days, and I felt aggrieved. You tell me, where we are now

, blocked by the Japs’ outpost on the hill in front, I can’t see anything inside the airport, how frustrating it is! I’m still worried, after the bombing is over, how will I evaluate the bombing effect?”

Chutian pointed at Qi Hanzhi with his finger and said with an expression of hatred: "Qi Hanzhi, I really don't know how to say hello to you. You are still the chief of staff, and this is all you have. After our aviation starts bombing, you say, the mountain in front of you

The little Jaap guard on the post can still stay there quietly, but he has been scared away long ago! Will he still be an obstacle to us when the time comes?"
