The Japanese army responded very quickly!
"Buzz..."
The searchlights surrounding the Japanese naval headquarters lit up in an instant like a telegraph, piercing the black sky like dazzling swords.
"Bang..."
On the Huangpu River, from east to west, the searchlights on Japanese warships were all lit up. The lights were like pillars, shooting into the sky, which was very shocking.
The Japanese army is too powerful.
At this time, it was no longer the defensive situation when the war just started on August 13. The naval headquarters was dark at night to prevent aircraft bombing.
Suddenly hearing the shrill dive of a bomber, the Japanese army immediately judged that an enemy plane was attacking.
If the fighter planes of the Japanese night attack team were taking off or returning, they would never sound the dive horn above their own people.
This is definitely an attack from the Chinese Air Force!
There were actually Chinese fighter planes that dared to carry out air strikes, which was beyond the Japanese's expectations.
The Japanese army quickly organized anti-aircraft fire.
First, use the light to dangle in the air to look for incoming fighters and also dazzle the pilot's eyes.
In just ten seconds, the entire Japanese Marine Corps headquarters and the sky above the Huangpu River opposite were brightly lit.
On both sides of the Huangpu River, many people who were sleeping or not sleeping quickly blew out the lights in their rooms, walked to the windows, opened the curtains, and looked towards the brightly lit place.
The hair on my hair stood up instantly with excitement, and my heart beat faster.
Like daylight.
A Type 96 warship dived towards the Japanese Marine Corps headquarters, and the sharp dive sound was very sad.
Ship battle No. 214.
Flying low.
There is a huge blue sky and white sun emblem on the wing, which is very eye-catching!
The Japs on the roof of the Naval Headquarters had not yet deployed their anti-aircraft machine guns. Just when they thought they could not see the sunrise tomorrow, Ship Battle No. 214 roared from above their heads.
There was no whistling sound of artillery shells or tracer bullets weaving barrages in the air.
"call!"
A huge white "cannonball" was dropped from the belly of Battleship No. 214 and "exploded" on the roof of the Japanese Marine Corps headquarters. It instantly turned into a sky full of heavy snow, flying in all directions.
"It's a leaflet..."
All people are ready to take action.
The battle between ships No. 214 was too fast, so fast that the Japanese had no time to fire anti-aircraft fire, and so fast that all the Japanese who looked at the sky were dumbfounded.
Ship Battle No. 214 was like a war eagle flying towards the northwest, flying at low altitude and fast along the Japanese position.
The Japanese positions along the way turned on searchlights one after another, but before they had time to open fire, Ship Battle No. 214 flew over their heads and dropped paper bombs along the way. The harsh sound from the aircraft head was like countless crisp slaps, slapping Japan. people's faces.
Everyone can see that Ship Battle No. 214 is distributing leaflets to the Japanese.
In the darkness, countless people sneaked out of their homes, picked up a piece of paper, quickly went home, and lit lamps under their blankets.
The concessions of various countries sent troops to hold national flags and bright lights to avoid being accidentally injured by the Japanese. They carefully came out of the concessions and picked up a few leaflets and returned.
The fighting Chinese and Japanese soldiers picked up the leaflets one after another.
Flyer:
Tomorrow at noon, over the Huangpu River, I will shoot down Yamashita Shichiro's fighter plane in front of the world.
Signed: Colonel Zhou Zhihan, chief instructor of the Chinese Air Force.
Five minutes later, the leaflet was delivered to General Kiyoshi Hasegawa's war room.
Ten minutes later, the houses on both sides of the Huangpu River were brightly lit.
Half an hour later, lights were on in the homes of all Shanghai residents.
Someone set off firecrackers.
more and more.
It's like celebrating the Spring Festival.
Finally, the sound of firecrackers drowned out the sound of gunfire as both sides opened fire.
Nanjing.
Dai Li, who was working late at night, suddenly received a call. Hearing the call, he stood up immediately.
An intelligence officer hurried into the war room with a happy face and handed a note to Air Force Commander-in-Chief Zhou Zhirou.
Half an hour later, Zhou Zhirou and Dai Li arrived at the door of the principal's office almost at the same time, with happy faces...
October 9, 1937.
Heavy fog in Shanghai in the morning.
Gunfire continued throughout Shanghai.
At this time, the main positions of China and Japan were concentrated in Luodian and Baoshan, and the two sides launched fierce battles again and again.
Due to the heavy fog, the Japanese army, which had no artillery and aircraft to assist them, did not have an advantage in the exchange of fire with the Chinese troops. Due to the heavy fog, the forces of the two sides infiltrated into each other, causing melee. Fierce street fighting broke out in many places.
The heavy fog did not begin to dissipate until eight o'clock in the morning.
The fog in Kunshan dissipates around eight o'clock, but the entire Yangcheng Lake is still covered in fog, and the lake is quiet, which is the best time for crab roe.
At nine o'clock, most of the sky across East China was still gloomy and overcast, with low clouds.
At eight o'clock, Zhou Zhihan got up, washed himself and performed a set of military boxing. The guerrillas delivering breakfast had just arrived. In order to maintain absolute confidentiality, no fireworks were allowed in this place where the fighter jets were hidden.
At nine o'clock, guerrilla captain Xu Zheyou hurried over. He said that the Japanese troops in Shanghai were a little abnormal today.
Since September and October, foggy weather has gradually increased in the areas around Shanghai.
Usually in foggy or rainy days, Japanese fighter planes do not launch aerial attacks on the Chinese defenders in Shanghai. However, when the fog clears and the sky clears, they will immediately dispatch fighter planes to attack the Chinese defenders. After all, the Japanese army can Even in a situation of absolute disadvantage, it still has the absolute upper hand because of its powerful fleet and aviation.
Last night, Luodian was recaptured by the Chinese troops. If it had been normal and the fog had not completely disappeared in the morning, the Japanese ground troops would have snatched Luodian with the support of the air force. By nine o'clock today, the Luodian was captured by the Chinese army. There are no traces of Japanese fighter planes in the sky.
This is abnormal!
At this moment, a guerrilla in disguise hurried over and handed a piece of paper to Xu Zheyou.
This is a telegram sent by the guerrillas in Shanghai.
"All the fighter planes at the Japanese airports in Shanghai disappeared inexplicably." Xu Zheyou said to Zhou Zhihan after reading the telegram, "Including the carrier-based aircraft on the Japanese aircraft carrier Wusongkou are also missing."
Zhou Zhihan immediately opened the battle map and spread it on the small table.
The Japanese fighter planes suddenly and inexplicably disappeared in Shanghai. There must be a big conspiracy involved.
Shanghai is the current main battlefield of the Japanese army. If they want to eat the Chinese army, the Japanese army's air superiority must be maintained. However, their fighter planes disappeared on the main battlefield, which was very abnormal and its purpose was puzzling.
"I have long suspected that the Japanese ace pilot wanted to fight me because they wanted to use the battle to become the focus and distract us, while they were secretly using tactics to attack the east and the west." Zhou Zhihan frowned: "The Japanese fighter planes are definitely They took off in the morning when the fog began to dissipate, and used the cover of fog to fly to a key location of our army. When the Japanese fleet arrived at the sneak attack point, if the fog did not dissipate, the fighter planes would shut down and hover in the sky, waiting for the fog to clear. Go, rush out of the clouds immediately, launch an air strike, and catch our army by surprise."
Xu Zheyou took out a cigarette and lit it. He also looked at the map and frowned: "All the Japanese fighter planes have left Shanghai. Where will they attack? Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport? But there are not many planes at Hangzhou Airport. The Japanese army cannot do this. All military planes are out. Zhoujiakou Airport? Or..."
"Nanjing!"
Zhou Zhihan pointed to the direction of Nanjing on the map, "The Japanese fighter planes in Shanghai are definitely going to attack our capital, Nanjing." After speaking, he punched the table hard, "We have all been fooled by the Japanese. Nanjing is dangerous!" Get ready to take off, I’m going to Nanjing.”
