The bombing of Peach Blossom Island killed the Japanese commander of the First Army of the North China Front, Yoshio Shinozuka, and more than a dozen major Japanese and puppet generals.
The second bombing of Peach Blossom Island was in retaliation for Okamura Ningci's massacre of civilians in the villages around Jinyang Lake. Okamura Ningci was frightened to death.
The three bombings of Peach Blossom Island were for peace, a peace that used violence to fight violence.
A gust of lake breeze blew, and the smoke on Peach Blossom Island began to dissipate.
What appears in front of people's eyes is a bare desert island. There are no more peach trees and peach blossoms on the island like a fairyland on earth.
The people on the shore witnessed the power of this cluster bomb with their own eyes in horror. Some were excited, some were worried, and some were silent.
Others shed tears silently, and even he himself could not explain why he was crying.
In the crowd, Pang Yuan suddenly burst out laughing: "With this sharp weapon, why worry about foreign invaders? Are the comrades from the arsenal here? I will also give you a great credit."
Many people from the arsenal came, including Deng Bo. The others were the core technicians involved in the design and manufacture of this cluster bomb.
People gathered Uncle Deng in front of Pang Yuan. Uncle Deng waved his hands with a red face: "I don't dare to take credit, I don't dare to take credit. This bomb was designed by the Commander-in-Chief himself. We just processed it according to the drawings. The Commander-in-Chief deserves the credit." Take the lead."
Was this bomb designed by Xie Baoqing?
People subconsciously looked up at the sky, but there was no shadow of the fighter jet in the sky. Xie Tian had already flown away.
People were a little skeptical of Dumbledore's words, and just thought that Dumbledore was just trying to please God.
Pang Yuan believed that there were too many miracles that happened to Xie Tian, and he would never be surprised by another bomb like this.
Pang Yuan took Deng Bo's hand and smiled: "No matter who designed this bomb, it was always you who made it. You can't deny this credit. How many such bombs do we have in our hands now? The war is coming, and this One bomb may be able to save the lives of countless of our soldiers."
Uncle Deng grinned and stretched out two fingers. He suddenly remembered something and quickly retracted one finger. He looked at Pang Yuan and said with a bitter smile: "Director Pang, there is only one left."
"Ah?" Pang Yuan was stunned for a moment in surprise.
Dumble said hurriedly: "Today's cluster bomb exploded for the first time. It was the first test we conducted. If the commander-in-chief approves the explosion effect, we can produce one in about three days."
"One piece only takes three days?" Pang Yuan was obviously very dissatisfied with this progress.
The war is about to begin. Such a bomb is enough to equal the strength of a battalion or even a regiment. It takes three days to make one. It is too slow. Pang Yuan wishes he had 180 bombs in his hands now, so that even his wife can't There is no need to fight, just drop bombs and blow them up.
Deng Bo smiled bitterly and said: "Director Pang, assembling cluster bombs is a delicate job. We have insufficient machinery, equipment, raw materials and skilled workers. Now, XCMG has assembled these two bombs by itself."
Pang Yuan did not ask who XCMG was. He looked at Deng Bo and said, "Make a list of what equipment and materials you need, and I will help you solve it."
"That's great." Deng Bo excitedly squeezed Pang Yuan's hand. He knew that Pang Yuan was the director of the Shanxi-Hebei camp. There was nothing he could not do that he promised.
Pang Yuan nodded to Deng Bo and let go of his hand. He turned to Deputy Commander He who didn't know what he was thinking and said, "Ying Ren, do you want to come with me to the island to have a look?"
Deputy Commander He forced a smile and said, "Okay, let's go and see the killing effect of this bomb."
A group of people surrounded Pang Yuan, Deputy Commander He and others as they walked toward Taohuadi. Before the sentry could stop them, Xu Jinghao walked over quickly and shouted: "Stop, no one can go to the island until Xie Baoqing comes." "
Does anyone dare to stop Pang Yuan?
People looked at Xu Jinghao in surprise.
Even Xie Baoqing was polite to Pang Yuan, who are you?
Deng Bo hurriedly squeezed out and introduced to Pang Yuan: "Director Pang, this is XCMG from the Equipment Research Institute. XCMG assisted the commander-in-chief in designing this cluster bomb."
As he spoke, Uncle Deng blinked at Xu Jinghao behind Pang Yuan's back, for fear that Xu Jinghao would say something inappropriate.
Pang Yuan looked at Xu Jinghao who was walking over quickly and nodded. Xu Jinghao walked directly to him and said: "The cluster bomb is loaded with 202 small bombs, all of which are trigger-type explosive devices. Now I'm not sure how many more there are. The small bomb was not detonated, and no one can enter the test site without permission, otherwise they will be at their own risk."
These words were a bit choking, but who was Pang Yuan? He smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to Xu Jinghao: "Hello, Xugong, thank you for reminding me, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Xu Jinghao paused and shook hands with Pang Yuan: "Let's wait for Xie Baoqing to come, he has arranged engineers."
Pang Yuan nodded calmly: "Okay"
He could tell that this Xugong was a bit unsmiling and not easy to communicate with.
Fortunately, Xie Tian came very quickly. Not long after everyone waited at Taohua Dikou, Xie Tian had already driven over from Caizhuang Airport.
Seeing Xie Tian's car arriving, people waiting at the entrance of Peach Blossom Embankment had already swarmed up, congratulating and complimenting constantly.
Xie Tian shook hands with everyone one by one, walked quickly to Pang Yuan, and said, "Brother Pang, I want to go to the island to check the effects of the explosion. It will probably take a long time. It's better for everyone to go back first."
Pang Yuan nodded, held Xie Tian's hand and warned, "Pay attention to safety."
Xie Tian smiled and walked quickly towards the engineering troops at Taohua Embankment. Xu Jinghao hurriedly caught up and said, "I'm going too."
Xie Tian took a good look at Xu Jing and said without hesitation: "No, you just need to know the data. There will be a dedicated person to collect the data, and they will do the research and wait for the report."
Xu Jing looked at Xie Tian depressedly: "Then don't you want to go in too?"
Xie Tian's eyes widened: "I am the special person."
After saying that, Xie Tian ignored Xu Jinghao and walked straight into the first cordon.
A dozen well-dressed engineers greeted Xie Tian and stood at attention to salute. Engineer company commander Wang Yongshan dissuaded Xie Tian: "Commander-in-Chief, just a few of us can go in. You don't have to risk it yourself."
Xie Tian's eyes widened: "What nonsense, you haven't even seen what a cluster bomb looks like, how can you arrange it?"
Wang Yongshan grinned, turned around quickly, took out a set of equipment from the wooden box, and personally served Xie Tian to put it on.
The engineers' EOD equipment was also designed by Xie Tian himself. It was equipped with armor at key positions from head to toe, and even an 8mm steel plate was installed on the soles of the shoes. This piece of equipment weighed twenty to thirty kilograms, which was really hard for ordinary people to carry.
As long as the safety of soldiers' lives is involved, Xie Tian will consider everything.
