October 24, 1940, Qijiang County, Qijiang County Security Headquarters
"Old Zhao, do you know how many control trainees there are here?" Wang Yue also became interested. For a poor imperialist like Japan, killing his pilots is much more valuable than simply destroying the aircraft.
Japan only has a population of 80 million, and there are not many junior high school students to choose from. Coupled with the poor physical limitations of the Japanese at this time, this ratio will only be even smaller. In fact, in the entire Japan, those who can meet the standards may not be able to exceed One hundred thousand people, one less person to kill. There is also the cost of training pilots, which includes both time cost and economic cost. As mentioned before, Japan does not have enough resources to support their large-scale training of preliminary pilots. Those who can persist until the later stage of operating trainees, In fact, it is the pilot. If he can really take to the sky, it will be fine, but if he cannot, it will be a waste of 7-9 months of time and a lot of resources, and the value is far more than the value of the aircraft.
In fact, until 1945, the Japanese still had the ability to produce tens of thousands of aircraft a year. The performance of the aircraft they produced was still good, at least more advanced than the Alliance's tatters. But the reason why they were always being pressed to the ground by bald eagles was that The most critical factor is that the quantity and quality of pilots are no longer good. The Japanese are madmen, not fools. They are forced to engage in kamikaze attacks. In the final analysis, the quality of pilots is really bad.
Therefore, do not be superstitious about the almost unparalleled record of Bald Eagle pilots in World War II. If you have the ability, you can ask them to go to Europe to practice with the Hans. As for those carrier-based aircraft pilots who flew dozens of hours in the later period of the Japanese, you can give them All their advanced fighters are still useless, let alone air combat with the Bald Eagle veteran. Many of them just flew without being able to distinguish between the sea and the sky and fell into the sea without any need to fight.
"There are 268 control trainees transferred from Japan, 100 people entrusted to train by the Japanese First Army, plus instructors, there are at least 400 pilots and quasi-pilots here." Zhao Gang also knows the value of this target. The air battle over the mountain city made the Japanese aviation honest for a long time. If the Japanese reserve pilots could really be killed, it would probably keep the Japanese honest for a long time, but.
"First Army? Kazuki Yamamoto! Didn't he set up a training school in Taiyuan? Why did he get it to Hankou again?" Wang Yue felt that his mentality was a little bad. It's Kazuki Yamamoto again. Why is it so so? They all have him.
"Yamamoto Kazuki came up with a three-month pilot training program, lowered the training standards for pilots, and even introduced female pilots. Kinoshita Toshi was particularly interested in this, so he transferred some trainees from Taiyuan to compare. There's a gap." Li Yunlong was still working on the map, so it was still Zhao Gang who answered.
"This guy is really a fucking talent!" Wang Yue couldn't help but swore, thinking back to the previous incident where the Japanese plane hit the ammunition depot. It seemed that this was Yamamoto Kazuki's work again. He was a quick pilot, and he didn't seem to have it. Infiltrate Yamamoto's plan to increase the number of pilots and shorten the training cycle. Before I even thought about it, Yamamoto Kazuki made it. What is it if it's not talent?
"Bullshit talents are all caused by those fucking traitors!" Li Yunlong couldn't help but cursed at the side.
"During the transfer of the Anti-Japanese University pilot class to northern Shaanxi, two instructors were captured and rebelled, and the pilot training plan formulated by the headquarters agency was also leaked. The current training plan of the First Army was actually carried out by the headquarters agency for the purpose of Rapidly increase the number of reserve pilots." Seeing Wang Yue turning his questioning eyes on him, Zhao Gang could only explain.
"I see, Lao Li, what do you want to do?" Wang Yue suddenly realized that this time he learned his feelings from the Eighth Route Army. You have to say that Yamamoto Kazuki is a positive and good student. As for the rebellious teacher, Wang Yue did not If we care too much, we usually see only those steadfast and unyielding seniors, but in fact, only a few can persevere in the face of Japanese torture, otherwise there would not be so many traitors.
"The Japanese defense of this training school is also very tight. There is a full garrison with three lines of defense deployed from the inside to the outside. There are also armored patrol vehicles patrolling the surrounding area. It is very difficult to penetrate, even if it is a surprise attack. If the team can break in, they will be surrounded by the Japanese follow-up troops. We, Old Li, will definitely not do this kind of loss-making business." Li Yunlong pointed at the densely populated defensive bases of the Japanese on the map.
"But within four kilometers, there are Japanese sentries on every commanding height. It's not easy to use mortars to bombard them, right?" Wang Yue had vaguely guessed what Li Yunlong wanted to do. I have to say that the Japanese still had the upper hand. If he missed it, he would not only miss Li Yunlong's boldness, but also miss himself.
"The Japanese made a defense plan based on the current equipment situation of the national army. It was very thorough and took almost every situation into consideration. However, they failed to calculate that I still have a big killer weapon in my hand." Having said that, Li Yunlong's tone had begun to contain a hint of murderous intent.
"M1938 120mm mortar?" Wang Yue blurted out. He asked Tasha to help find some of this thing some time ago, but the current control over Mao Xiong is too strict, and this thing cannot be shipped at all. It shows the excellent performance of this thing. On the Chinese battlefield in the bright sword time and space, the m1938 120mm mortar weighs less than 300 kilograms and has a range of six kilometers. In fact, it is no different from black technology.
"I plan to send a four-man artillery squad, carrying an M1938 120mm mortar and a hundred rounds of artillery shells, to parachute here, and then directly bombard the Japanese training school five kilometers away. At night, a hundred rounds of artillery shells, It's enough for the Japanese to drink a pot." Li Yunlong drew a circle on the map and confirmed their airborne area. It was an old battlefield during the Wuhan Battle. Because too many people died, it is still desolate to this day. , inaccessible, and even the Japanese were unwilling to go near it at night. It was obviously a very good airborne field. As for whether there would be leftover mines and bombs, Lao Li didn't consider it at all. They were all soldiers. It can only be a bad fate if something like this happens.
"The fastest rate of fire of the Lao Li M1938 120mm mortar is only 10 rounds per minute. It takes ten minutes to fire one hundred rounds. The gun crew must be physically stable. Without correcting the shooting parameters, wait until you finish firing. With a hundred rounds of artillery shells, the artillery crew will not be able to withdraw at all." Wang Yue shook his head slightly. Li Yunlong's plan was indeed feasible, but if he had not intervened, his artillery crew would have been destroyed.
Some people died, but not completely...
