Nanyuan Airport.
China's first airport. It seems to have been built in 1904?
That's right. At that time, the Qing Dynasty had not yet perished. At that time, Peiping was still called the Capital. At that time, Empress Dowager Cixi had not yet died...
China's first plane landed at Nanyuan Airport.
Its history is too old.
After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the Japanese invaders stormed Nanyuan Airport.
The most intense anti-Japanese fighting in the Pingjin area broke out at Nanyuan Airport. Senior generals such as Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu unfortunately died.
Most of the thousands of student soldiers stationed at Nanyuan Airport suffered casualties.
After Nanyuan Airport, there was no more fierce fighting. The Pingjin area fell like this.
Unexpectedly, there are pilots inside Nanyuan Airport.
"Is there a plane?"
"It seems not. I don't know the details."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong nodded thoughtfully.
The plane doesn't matter. real. Because even if there is one, it is still a very backward model.
The aircraft currently stationed at Jinling University Airport are also very backward Hawk (Eagle) 2 types. Not even the Hawker Type 3 yet.
The Hawker Type 3 itself is relatively backward.
As a manufacturer, Curtiss has fallen behind the times.
Before seeing the real thing, Zhang Yong couldn't imagine the backwardness of the Hawker 2. It's also a biplane. One with two layers of wings. The same goes for the Hawker Model 3. Very backward.
It is completely incomparable to the famous P-38 Lightning, P-40 Tomahawk and other fighters of later generations.
It is even more different from the proud ones like the P-47 Thunderbolt and P-51 Mustang. It doesn't feel like a world at all.
It is completely incomparable to the German bf109.
Even the National Air Force is like this. What kind of aircraft can there be in North China?
No wonder the empty funding department only needs people.
They all looked down upon such a backward aircraft.
After breakfast, I called Mr. Zhang. But was rejected. Only the deputy chief of staff answered the phone.
Zhang Yong:......
Finished.
what's the situation. Didn't answer on purpose?
"Mr. Zhang is in a very difficult situation right now." Mei Lu expressed her understanding, "He is hampered everywhere."
"Alas..." Zhang Yong could only sigh.
The situation is too complicated.
He couldn't handle it.
real.
Originally I just wanted to take care of my own one-third of an acre of land, but I didn't expect that so many things would happen later.
The previous plan was to go back after catching Yang Junjian. Virgo only gives ten days. How many ten days have passed now? It’s been over a month. If we continue, it will be two months.
Now that two months have passed. Can those three months be far behind? If not, we will have to spend the New Year in Tianjin Wei.
It doesn't matter. Anyway, they are all alone.
Put down the phone. Get ready to go back to your room.
Mei Lu blushed and pinched his waist, "Not today..."
"Why?"
"You can't ruin yourself like this..."
"I……"
"At least two days of rest..."
"no……"
Suddenly I saw someone coming.
It's a hotel waiter. He said he had Zhang Yong’s phone number.
"mine?"
"Yes. He said his surname is also Zhang. He's looking for you."
"Thanks!"
Zhang Yong handed the other party a big ocean.
Your surname is Zhang?
Who?
I am in Tianjin Wei, and I don’t seem to know a friend named Zhang.
Confused, he answered the phone.
Picking up the phone, I found that it was Teacher Zhang's voice.
"Shaolong, it's me."
"Ah, hello, hello, Mr. Zhang..."
"It's not convenient for me to answer the phone at the division headquarters. I'm outside now. If you have anything to do, please tell me."
"Mr. Zhang, I'd like to excuse you, but I want to ask you something..."
"You ask. I will tell you everything I know, and I will tell you everything I know."
"Are there any pilots at Beiping Nanyuan Airport?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I want to know the relevant situation."
"There are more than a hundred people."
"More than a hundred? That much?"
Zhang Yong was surprised.
I thought it was just a few here and there. Unexpectedly, there were hundreds of them.
It’s amazing, there are hundreds of pilots at Nanyuan Airport? Where did they come from? Was it through training? How is the level?
Incredible.
Those are all treasures!
You must know that pilots are very rare these days.
Especially in China. Not to mention that he can fly a plane, but there are not many people who have even seen an airplane.
"There are a lot of people. But the composition is quite complex."
"How to say?"
"Some of them were exiled from the Northeastern Army. Some of them were prepared by us before to do it ourselves. And some of them were aviation school students recruited by Jinling in Peiping."
"Are there any planes at Nanyuan Airport?"
"They're all broken. They can't fly. They can only be placed on the ground as a show."
"What were those pilots doing there?"
"Where else would we go?"
"go……"
Zhang Yong almost blurted out, go to Jinling!
There are aviation schools in Jinling and Hangcheng. There are air force bases. There will also be replenishment of aircraft one after another.
As long as there are pilots, there will be more planes.
It seems like this...
"You don't try to take them south."
"Why?"
"They are not allowed to go south."
"Why?"
"No explanation. Just refused to leave. There is a group stationed at Nanyuan Airport, which is responsible for guarding the airport. In the past, Japanese people kept coming to spy, but now Nanyuan Airport is under martial law. No one is allowed to approach. People inside are not allowed either. leave."
"so serious?"
Zhang Yong frowned. I vaguely understood the meaning of the telegram.
The truth is, it is impossible to take those pilots away through formal channels. Commander Song would not agree.
The so-called high-level officials are mainly Song Zheyuan, commander of the 29th Army.
A former Xifengkou anti-Japanese hero. But then it became a bit hard to explain. At this moment, I am also indecisive and hesitant.
Because he was cheated by Lao Jiang, he didn’t trust Lao Jiang.
Until the Marco Polo Bridge Incident broke out, he still fantasized about making peace with the Japanese invaders. Poor preparation for war. The conclusion of the history books is that he had an important responsibility for the fall of the Pingjin area.
Without Commander Song's permission, it was impossible to take those pilots away.
Unless there is some way...
"Mr. Zhang, are you interested in British equipment?"
"What equipment?"
"Mainly British 77 rifles and Bren light machine guns."
"How many?"
"One camp!"
"Where? What conditions?"
"Dagukou, Yinglun Pier, Warehouse No. 17."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"The British want to lend me my hand and give it to you."
"Why?"
"Because the British and Japanese also have conflicts. They want to use us to put pressure on Japan."
"When are you going to get it?"
"Now."
"Okay. I'll arrange someone."
Teacher Zhang was not polite either. Weapons and ammunition, who would refuse.
His troops were poorly equipped. Ammunition was also severely lacking. Facing so many Japanese invaders was actually very stressful.
You must know that his division actually only has about 7,000 men. There were two regiments of Japanese regular troops that needed to be faced. A total of seven thousand people. In addition, the Japanese invaders also had military police. There are also large numbers of armed expatriates.
In the Bohai Bay outside Dagukou, there are also Japanese naval warships cruising. Reinforcements can come at any time.
The most important thing is that the two infantry regiments of the Japanese invaders have a large number of artillery. There is a 75mm mountain gun. There are 90mm mortars. There is also a 105mm heavy cannon.
However, the Thirty-fourth Division under his command did not even have a mountain cannon. There are only a dozen 60mm mortars.
If the two sides really fought, how could they withstand the Japanese attack?
"I'll wait for you on the roadside!"
"good!"
The two took action immediately.
Soon, we arrived at Dagukou Pier. Open the warehouse.
Sure enough, there were five hundred British rifles and half a million rounds of ammunition inside. About thirty Bren light machine guns.
There aren't many weapons. But half a million rounds of ammunition is very satisfying.
In particular, half of the 500,000 rounds of ammunition were 7.92mm Mauser rifle rounds. It just meets the needs of the Thirty-Fourth Division.
"Captain Zhang, tell me what conditions you have!"
"My conditions are very harsh. I'm afraid Mr. Zhang can't do it."
"you say."
"I hope that in two years, Commander Zhang will be stationed at Nanyuan Airport."
"What?"
Obviously stunned.
Stationed at Nanyuan Airport?
What is the condition?
"Commander Zhang, according to the deductions of the Jinling Military Senate, the Japanese invaders will fully invade China in two years at most. At that time, the Japanese invaders will increase their troops to Tianjin in large numbers. They will find excuses to launch a full-scale war. Nanyuan Airport is where the Japanese invaders This is a battleground for the Japanese invaders. The Japanese invaders need to occupy this airport and station aircraft."
"Then what?"
"There is no end. The Japanese invaders will attack madly and must capture Nanyuan Airport."
"That's all you tell me?"
"Yes. My condition is that Mr. Zhang will be stationed at Nanyuan Airport as much as possible."
"I can't make the decision on military deployment."
"Then whoever is stationed at Nanyuan Airport hopes that Commander Zhang will remind him that there will be a fierce battle at Nanyuan Airport. The Japanese invaders are determined to win."
"Okay. I understand."
"I will continue to cooperate with the British. Try to get more weapons and ammunition for Commander Zhang."
"Frankly, I'm curious, why would you do that?"
"Mr. Zhang, why do you ask that?"
"I'm just curious."
"Does Master Zhang need a reason to kill the Japanese invaders? Does he need a reason to defend his country and resist foreign humiliation?"
"You... I was wrong! I'm sorry."
Zhang Kexia looked solemn.
I didn't expect Zhang Yong to say this. I thought this guy was just fooling around!
According to his investigation results, Zhang Yong’s reputation seems not to be very good...
However……
Do you need a reason to defend your homeland and resist foreign humiliation?
"well……"
He sighed silently.
He was actually very worried about the current situation.
Whether it is the external environment or the internal situation of the 29th Army, the situation is very complicated.
The enemy is watching eagerly, but inside...
"Mr. Zhang, do you know Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu?"
"We know each other!"
"They should be very determined in their anti-Japanese attitude, right?"
"Yes. Zhao Dengyu was demoted before. Because of the conflict with the Japanese invaders. Why are you talking about this?"
"In future wars, the two of them should be on the front line. There may be a possibility of sacrifice."
"What's so strange about this? Who doesn't have the possibility of sacrifice?"
"Well……"
Zhang Yong was speechless.
Too. When the war of resistance breaks out in full force, who has no possibility of sacrifice?
Even if it is a commission, in the mountain city, it is still almost bombed.
Who is not at risk?
So ended the topic. Everyone went home.
Zhang Yong returned to Junsheng Coal Trading Company. Take a break and think of something.
The woman I saw in Xia Chong Yubing before, whose pseudonym is Wang Manyuan, is she still there? She and Wang Zhulin seem to have a close relationship.
Did the girl in the underground cell of Baolin Temple finally fall into her hands? Is she Wang Zhulin's accomplice?
Okay, if you can’t catch Wang Zhulin, catch this woman first!
At that time, I felt that this woman was not simple. Caught. Maybe you can get a lot of information.
Act now.
Suddenly, the map prompts that a red dot enters the edge.
Almost without thinking, Zhang Yong immediately felt that the person coming was evil. At the same time, he was aware of the danger.
The map shows that this red dot did not take the main road.
To be precise, there was no road at all. Instead, he sneaked in quietly from a place with no roads.
This is awesome.
It must be for yourself.
Could it be the killer of the Miyamoto family?
Okay, be prepared.
Wave outside. Chen Wen came in immediately.
Chen Wen is a Northeastern Army veteran who looks very honest and honest, but likes to shoot his head with a gun.
"team leader……"
"There is a Japanese invader who is infiltrating us."
"Where?"
"Northwest. Ten o'clock position. Call five people. I will take you to deal with him."
"yes!"
Chen Wen immediately went out to call for help.
Soon, five other Northeast Army veterans gathered together.
They are all sharpshooters.
All used are Type 44 rifles.
Set off.
