Chapter 676 Formation of Aviation Division

The War Room of the Central Military Commission just received an urgent telegram from the three northeastern provinces. The three heads of the Central Secretariat responsible for commanding operations, Commander-in-Chief of the Northeast Field Army Liu Hua, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan, and Commander of the Mechanized Corps Su Yu. Six people immediately responded,

They gathered in the war room, in front of the huge combat map of the three eastern provinces, and began to think about specific countermeasures.

"Commander Su, I really didn't expect that what you said back then would become a fact in less than two days. Fifteen main divisions and 300,000 elite Kwantung Army troops, even small

You have accurately calculated the exact number of soldiers recruited by the Japanese Kwantung Army. It’s really amazing.” After reading the telegram I just received in my hand, I faced Commander Su Yu with the title of ‘God of War’ in front of me and Commander-in-Chief of the Northeast Field Army Liu Hua, and I couldn’t help but sigh.

I couldn't help but sigh.

Facing Liu Hua's emotion and the admiring looks of the chairman and others. At this moment, because of Liu Hua's appreciation, all Su Yu, who had just emerged, could do was smile and say nothing. Then, a pair of eyes stared fixedly in front of him.

map, thinking about the possible countermeasures of the Northeast Field Army.

Commander Su Yu did not speak. Chief of Staff Zuo Quan, who was standing next to Su Yu, spoke after reading the telegram.

"Boss, leaders. Although the action of the Kwantung Army against us can be said to be menacing. They dispatched bombers to conduct continuous bombings on our base areas, slowing down the development progress of our army. At the same time, a warning order was issued.

, reorganized the Kwantung Army with 300,000 troops, and sent troops to encircle and suppress our base area at any time. However, our base area and the hundreds of thousands of commanders and fighters of the Northeast Field Army have already launched a series of counterattacks under the mobilization of Political Commissar Luo."

"Such a counterattack, even if it cannot directly hit the weak spots of the little devils and shatter the Japanese army's determination to encircle and suppress our base area this time, can, to a certain extent, alleviate the pressure on our base area. At the same time, it can slow down the Japanese army's signs of recruiting new troops and the formation of new troops.

The troops have time to allow them to launch a new round of encirclement and suppression operations against our base area in a short period of time without the ability."

Seeing expressions of appreciation on the faces of the leaders around him, Zuo Quan changed the topic and continued to speak.

"However, this kind of tactics can be delayed for a while, but it cannot be delayed forever, especially in the face of repeated bombings by Japanese bombers. In North China, the Party Central Committee has just established an aviation division with the assistance of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East.

With such strength, the Japanese combat aircraft in North China did not dare to fly arrogantly above our heads. In the Northeast region, our Northeast Field Army not only did not have any air power. Even the limited air defense power of the troops was undoubtedly a problem for such a large base area.

It is a drop in the bucket and will not have much effect. Facing the counterattack of our Northeast Field Army's air defense force, the Japanese bomber group will inevitably change its bombing target after two losses. At that time, facing the aimless bombing of the Japanese army,

There is nothing we can do.”

"The chief of staff's analysis is so good..." As soon as Zuo Quan finished speaking, Liu Hua couldn't help but praise.

"Chief of Staff, what you just said is exactly what I thought. To sum it up, there is only one sentence, which is to develop the air power of our Northeast Field Army in the shortest possible time and use our own air power to contain the three eastern provinces of Guandong.

The military’s air power is the specific solution to the Japanese bombing.”

As soon as Liu Hua finished speaking, the chairman immediately spoke:

"What you said is very correct. However, if we want to form an air force comparable to the Kwantung Army in the three eastern provinces in a short period of time, the current strength of our Northeast Field Army and our current strength will be almost the same.

It is an impossible task. So, Comrade Liu Hua and Comrade Zuo Quan, I will give you two a shot of prevention here. The central government will not take care of developing the air power of the Northeast Field Army, and it will not be able to give you any support.

.If the Northeast Field Army wants to develop a powerful air force, it can only rely on its own strength."

Looking at the helpless Chairman in front of him, Liu Hua quickly replied: "Chairman, please rest assured that we are aware of the difficulties faced by the central government. However, in order to avoid this situation when the time comes, we have airplanes but no outstanding pilots to fly them. I

I request the Central Aviation Division to support a group of pilots in our Northeast Field Army. Here, I, Liu Hua, assure you that as long as there are enough pilots, I will form the first pilot in the Northeast Field Army in the shortest possible time.

Aviation division."

"Um? Comrade Liu Hua, are you so confident? If I think correctly, at this moment, you already have a specific solution in your heart. Come on, don't show off to us old guys.

Take out all the things in your heart." Looking at the confident Liu Hua in front of him, Commander-in-Chief Zhu De immediately showed a mysterious smile on his face, and hurriedly said to Liu Hua beside him.

"Commander-in-Chief, I can't hide anything from you... After the Japanese army dispatched bombers to attack our base, I really have the idea of ​​forming an aviation force of our own. Because, no matter when, only the aviation force can deal with the Kanto

The most effective way to use military bombers."

Seeing that the eyes of the three chiefs, as well as Chief of Staff Zuo Quan and Commander Su Yu, were all focused on him, Liu Hua pointed at the battle map in front of him and explained.

"At present, with the capabilities of our Northeast Field Army, it is almost impossible to develop the armed forces of an aviation division in the shortest possible time with our own strength. For us, pilots have

The central government's support, coupled with the special operations team members with flying experience in the special operations division, was also responsible for the timely establishment of two aviation divisions. As for the airport and logistics base, when our Northeast Field Army occupied Fengtian, it successfully received a complete

There is absolutely no problem with hundreds of combat aircraft stationed at Fengtian Airport. However, the only problem before us now is the aircraft. As long as the problem of the aircraft is solved, our aviation division can be established immediately. And in the first time

, and plunged into the battle against the Japanese army."

Regarding Liu Hua's answer, after a short period of thinking, several people nodded thoughtfully. Seeing Liu Hua in front of him, with a confident look on his face, the chairman asked directly.

"Comrade Liu Hua, according to the current production capacity of Fengtian Arsenal, even if there are sufficient raw materials, it will be impossible to produce equipment for an aviation division in less than one or two years. And you

The goal is to form at least one aviation division in a short period of time. With one aviation division and nearly a hundred combat aircraft of various types, where do you plan to come from?"

"Report Chairman, in the entire China, except for our Communist Party which has an aviation division with nearly a hundred combat aircraft, plus a small number of combat aircraft in the hands of Chiang Kai-shek, the remaining aircraft are basically in the hands of the little devils. An aviation division

Of course, the equipment was taken from the hands of the Japs." Liu Hua replied confidently.

As he spoke, Liu Hua's eyes quickly focused on the location of Tianjin on the map. Several people standing next to Liu Hua who felt the change in Liu Hua's eyes also immediately followed Liu Hua's fingers.

He focused his attention on the location of Tianjin Airport on the map.

"Chairman, fellow chiefs. Tianjin Airport is the largest airport for the Japanese North China Front. It can be said that as most of North China fell into the hands of our Eighth Route Army, more than two-thirds of the Japanese North China Front's forces totaled more than 200 aircraft of various types.

All combat aircraft are parked at Tianjin Airport and are responsible for airspace security in the Pingjin-Tianjin area."

"At that time, as long as our special operations division can occupy Pingjin Airport and hold it for more than an hour, then all the pilots accompanying the army will be able to fly the aircraft from the airport into the sky and fly back to Fengtian Airport in the shortest possible time.

.At that time, these planes flying back to Fengtian Airport will become the equipment for our Northeast Field Army to form the first aviation division."

As soon as Liu Hua finished speaking, Commander-in-Chief Zhu De showed a hint of excitement in his eyes. He immediately showed his attitude towards Liu Hua in front of him.

"Tianjin Airport, there are two hundred combat aircraft. Comrade Liu Hua, you have a big appetite. However, I, Zhu De, support you in fighting this battle well. Because if you fight this battle well, you can not only form your own aviation force immediately

, to confront the Kwantung Army's arrogant aviation units and reduce their arrogance. At the same time, the Japanese North China Front Army will also completely lose all its air superiority in North China due to the fall of Tianjin Airport. Said.

Well, Comrade Liu Hua, if you need any help from our North China Eighth Route Army troops, just ask and I will try my best to meet your request."

The Commander-in-Chief had just finished speaking, and after thinking briefly, the Chairman immediately spoke.

"Comrade Liu Hua, the attitude of the commander-in-chief is my attitude and the attitude of the Party Central Committee. Since you, the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Field Army, have made a decision, the Party Central Committee and I will absolutely support you unconditionally. In addition, regarding this action.

If you need the central government to do something, you’re welcome, just ask.”

"Thank you, Chairman, thank you Commander-in-Chief..." With the support of the three chiefs, the confident smile on Liu Hua's face became even stronger.

"Chairman, there is absolutely no problem for the Commander-in-Chief to occupy the airport and hold it for an hour by relying on the combat power of the special operations division. However, there is only one situation in order to allow more than a hundred aircraft to fly into the sky in a short period of time.

It can be done next. That is, before the troops occupied Pingjin Airport, the Japanese logistics personnel had filled all combat aircraft with fuel and kept all aircraft in the best take-off condition."

"However, as far as I know, under normal circumstances, among the more than 200 combat aircraft at Tianjin Airport, there is only one squadron of 12 combat aircraft, which are maintained in the best take-off condition and are ready to attack possible foreign enemies at any time. Therefore,

Before we occupy Tianjin Airport, we must find a way to get the Xiaojiazi Airport logistics personnel to help us fill up all the planes with fuel and ammunition." Relying on his own memory, Liu Hua explained to the few people in front of him.

"Comrade Liu Hua, you're welcome. If you need anything from the central government, just ask..." Seeing the hesitant look on Liu Hua's face in front of him, the chairman asked directly.

"Yes, Chairman. According to the Japanese army's combat regulations, only in wartime will all their combat aircraft enter combat status, that is, all of them will be in optimal flying condition within twenty-four hours a day. Therefore, in order to achieve what I just said,

The purpose mentioned is to ask the Japanese logistics personnel to fill up all combat aircraft with fuel. There is only one purpose, and that is to launch a battle and mobilize the entire North China Front of the Japanese army." At this moment, Liu Hua could no longer do anything.

Any hesitation, just express your thoughts directly.

"Launch a large-scale battle and mobilize the entire Japanese North China Front..." Just as Liu Hua finished speaking, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan opened his mouth and couldn't help but exclaimed.

At the same time, the chairman and others standing in front of Liu Hua also had extremely shocked looks on their faces.

Of course, after less than a minute, the shocked look on the chairman's face was shrouded in seriousness and reason. After a brief reflection, he spoke to the commander-in-chief beside him.

"Boss, think about it. Have there been any major wars among the Eighth Route Army troops in North China in the recent period? Of course, don't forget about those small-scale wars..."

"Chairman, let me think carefully..." Facing the Chairman's question, the Commander-in-Chief immediately fell into deep thought while looking at the map in front of him.

After searching the map in front of him for five minutes, the commander-in-chief pointed to the location of Shijiazhuang on the map and then spoke.

"Chairman, you see, the entire Shanxi Province has fallen into the hands of our army. Most of Hebei to the north of Shanxi is also in the hands of our army. However, Shijiazhuang, which is besieged by about one division of the North China Front Army, is like

It is like a nail, hammered into our heart, which prevents us from vigorously developing the Hebei area and expanding our military's influence in the Hebei area, especially around Shijiazhuang..."

"Shijiazhuang... I think it's okay. There is only one Japanese division of garrison troops in Shijiazhuang. With the current combat effectiveness and equipment of our Eighth Route Army, only one division of the 129th Division can capture the entire Shijiazhuang within three days.

Annihilate all the garrison troops in Shijiazhuang..." the chairman replied with great approval.

"Chairman, you mean, agreed..." the commander-in-chief asked.

"Agreed, we will kill two birds with one stone for the North China Front. On the one hand, dispatch the 129th Division to capture Shijiazhuang. On the other hand, assist the special operations division to capture Fengtian Airport, intercept all combat aircraft in the airport, and form our Northeast

The first aviation unit of the field army." The chairman replied very firmly.

"Okay, Chairman, I will issue the latest combat order in the name of the Central Military Commission: Commander Liu Bocheng will command the 129th Division to assemble in the Shijiazhuang area starting tomorrow night, preparing to launch an engineering battle. As for the specific attack time, Comrade Liu Bocheng will decide on his own

Make a decision. In addition, Comrade Liu Hua will command the special operations division directly under the Northeast Field Army to choose the time of attack and raid Tianjin Airport..." the commander-in-chief gave an unusually firm order.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief..." Liu Hua answered affirmatively without any hesitation.

"Comrade Liu Hua, I will leave the task of establishing the aviation force directly under the Northeast Field Army to you. Here, I will only give you one sentence: You can form as many aviation units as you can to snatch the planes from the hands of the little devils.

At the same time, on behalf of Comrade Liu Yalou, commander of the aviation division directly under the central government, I would like to express my attitude to you. In order to support the development of the aviation force of the Northeast Field Army, I will transfer an aviation regiment with a total of forty pilots to your hands.

"Facing Liu Hua, who looked confident in front of him, the chairman finally said.

"Thank you for the support of the Central Committee. Chairman, fellow chiefs, I, Liu Hua, am here to assure you that we will use the shortest possible time to form a powerful aviation unit in the Northeast Field Army to suppress the arrogance of the Kwantung Army's aviation unit as soon as possible.

Complete the mission of counterattacking the three eastern provinces..." With the chairman's support, Liu Hua, who has become a national leader and has a large number of troops, no longer has any doubts and answered very confidently.

"Okay, that's well said. Comrade Liu Hua, we old guys also hope to see the Northeast Field Army counterattack the entire three northeastern provinces under your command one day earlier, and return the three northeastern provinces that have been occupied for decades to return to the

In the hands of the people..." Patting Liu Hua on the shoulder in front of him, the commander-in-chief said with a smile on his face.

"Commander-in-Chief, please rest assured, Liu Hua promises to complete the mission..."

"Okay, Comrade Liu Hua, this matter is settled. According to Comrade Luo Ronghuan's telegram, the current Northeastern base area has fallen into a very critical situation, and you are urgently needed to go back and take charge of the overall situation. So, we old guys are going to

You don’t need to say anything more. When you return to the Northeast, you just need to say hello to us. As for the battle plan to raid Pingjin Airport, the three of you will discuss and decide on your own, and you will not report it to the Military Commission..." The chairman nodded, very satisfied.

said.

"Yes, Chairman. I plan to discuss a specific combat plan with Chief of Staff Zuo and Commander Su tonight. Early tomorrow morning, we will set off to raid Pingjin Airport..." Liu Hua replied.

"This is your own business, Liu Hua, and it has nothing to do with us old guys. Okay, that's it for today's meeting. Now I declare that the meeting is adjourned. In addition, tonight, all of you will come to my house.

Send Comrade Liu Hua, Comrade Zuo Quan, and Comrade Su Yu off..." the chairman gave the final order.

"The chairman invites us to drink, of course we will go. Enlai, Liu Hua, Zuo Quan, Su Yu, when the time comes, we will definitely report on time..." the commander-in-chief said with a smile on his face.

"Yes, Chairman, Commander-in-Chief..." several people replied in unison.
