Okamura Neji excitedly looked at the telegram sent by Black Butterfly. It was indeed Linyi. This was not just one line of intelligence, but all lines of intelligence revealed this news. The main force of the 115th Division was preparing in Linyi.
defense.
Okamura Neiji looked at the map, kept making gestures with his fingers, and muttered words. Finally, he punched the word Linyi. He picked up the phone and said, "I am Okamura Neiji. Please send people from all divisions to Jinan immediately."
Meeting! I want to defeat the 115th Division in one battle! No! It’s annihilation!!”
Okamura Neiji began to rearrange his troops in Jinan, while in Changzhi, a troop was gathering. On the newly built airport, several Junkers were doing final inspections. A cold wind blew by, and Jiang Cheng couldn't help but
Feeling a little cold, he tightened his coat. Xu Guangda, who came from Suiyuan, came over and said, "203, all 500 armored soldiers of our regiment have arrived, and there are also four to five hundred logistics troops, nearly a thousand people.
Will you be lucky this time?"
Jiang Cheng put his hand in his pocket and said, "We can't transport it. This Junkers can only transport 18 people at a time. We have nearly a thousand people and need to transport 56 sorties, but we only have these twenty-one transport planes. I borrowed these from Europe."
Yes, it will be returned to Europe after the flight. The maximum range of this aircraft is 1,500 kilometers. We are only 600 kilometers away from Lianyungang. We can get there in less than two hours. We must fly a plane at least twice a night. Only in this way can we get there.
Transport everyone there in one night."
Xu Guangda shook his head and said, "Although I don't know much about airplanes, I also know the dangers of flying at night. It is said that those with big noses are unwilling to fly, so we can only let our own air force fly them. I don't know if they can all reach Lianyungang safely."
Jiang Cheng said comfortingly, "Don't worry, the Japs' planes don't fly at night, and they don't have our radar. They won't find us after all our lights are turned off. As for the danger... wars are always
It’s dangerous.”
What Jiang Cheng and Xu Guangda implemented this time was a transfer plan created by the Central Military Commission. This is why Chairman Mao and others relied on Jiang Cheng to have a batch of tank equipment in modern times, and prepared to have Jiang Cheng transport all that equipment to Shandong.
Go and combine with Xu Guangda's tank regiment to become a surprise force. Regarding technical arms, the Eighth Route Army has always implemented the policy of waiting for equipment, so it can send hundreds of qualified armored troops to Shandong at any time without affecting the army's combat effectiveness.
Join the war.
The Eighth Route Army also bullied the Japanese army, which currently does not have radars. If it had waited another year or two for Britain, Germany and other European countries to be equipped with radars, it would not have dared to take the risk of killing hundreds of armored soldiers even if it killed Jiang Cheng.
It must make everyone in Yan'an faint from pain.
The sky slowly darkened. Xu Guangda looked at the time and said, "Get ready! Start boarding!!"
Night flying was an extremely dangerous thing in the early days of World War II, mainly because at night, especially a starless night, pilots could not distinguish between the sky and the ground. Even on a starry night at sea, they could not distinguish between the sea and the ground.
Sky. There is no way to know the altitude and observe the condition of the aircraft.
The most important thing is that you can't know your position. For example, during World War II, the Japanese bombed Yan'an using the Yan'an Pagoda as a reference to correct their course, but it was difficult to find a reference at night. The British Air Force's nighttime air raid on Berlin relied entirely on spies.
Only by using lights on the ground to guide you can you correct your course.
Only those who do not have night blindness, have particularly good eyesight, and have a particularly strong sixth sense can overcome these difficulties. This situation continued until the birth of mature electronic guidance technology, allowing pilots to accurately know their situation just by looking at the instruments.
What's more important is that the triangular positioning formed by aircraft, radar, and radio stations allows pilots to know their own position. Only in this way can they find the target and attack it.
But these things are not a problem for Jiang Cheng at all, which also makes the Eighth Route Army's aviation force the most capable air force in night combat on the earth at this time.
The choice of Lianyungang as the landing place is because there are no mature airports elsewhere. Of course, in Lianyungang, there are already many ground staff making preparations. This time, this nighttime air troop transport of thousands of miles will be recorded in the annals of history and become the most classic air power.
Application method.
On the land of China, a battle of hundreds of thousands of people is about to begin, while in Europe, a war of millions of people is approaching step by step.

"In more than a month of fighting, Finland has inflicted more than 100,000 casualties on the Soviet Union, but Finland is also exhausted. All their ammunition has been basically used up, and more than half of their elite soldiers have been killed or injured.
It will take another month and Finland will definitely surrender." Himmler reported the latest situation in Finland.
Hitler looked at the globe and said, "Do Norway and Sweden have anything to say about our note?"
Himmler said, "They have rejected the British request for a tunnel for the third time, but they seem to be extremely afraid of the Soviet Union. For example, Sweden has asked one-third of its air force to take off their uniforms and join Finland as volunteers.
To fight against the Soviet Union, although Norway was not as aggressive as Sweden, it also dispatched a large number of transportation forces to help Finland transport military supplies provided by the United Kingdom and France. In addition, the Soviet Union also protested against Norway and Sweden many times, but both countries ignored the Soviet Union.
.”
"Haha!" Hitler laughed happily. "Our Comrade Stalin must feel bad. Well, Norway and Sweden are very obedient, which is good, but... obedient people are not as good as their own people after all. They also
Are you not willing to sign a covenant with us?"
Himmler shook his head and said, "They all seem to want to become neutral."
Hitler snorted and said, "Neutral? They hope to suck blood from our bodies!"
Chief of Staff Keitel, who had been silent next to him, said, "My head of state, during the last war, Britain used its naval superiority to deploy a tight blockade on the North Sea from the Shetland Islands to the coast of Norway.
The great German fleet was trapped in the home port and did nothing. So if we want to fight a full-scale war with Britain and France, we must get a port in Norway to break the British blockade. And according to the latest news, Britain has begun to lay mines on the sea of Norway.
And our ships are not allowed to pass. The Norwegian government only protested against the British behavior. I think Norway is extremely dangerous!"
Hitler waved his hand and said, "Yes! This is the living space I have been emphasizing. Now I can feel the throat of our country being tightly grasped, and that hand is above our empire, right in Norway! There is
We need iron ore and ports. If they cannot become our allies, let them join us completely!"
The intention of aggression in Hitler's words was very obvious. Keitel nodded and said, "My Führer, this is a yellow plan that we have changed based on the latest intelligence. We can launch an attack at any day."
With that said, Keitel handed a document to Hitler.
Hitler watched with interest and asked, "How is our intelligence deception going?"
"They completely believed the previous intelligence, and their troop deployment was exactly as we imagined." Himmler bowed and said.
Hitler smiled slightly, returned the plan to Keitel and said, "Then why wait? Guderian will definitely give us a huge surprise. But I think we can conduct war deception again."
Keitel said respectfully, "Please give instructions from the head of state."
"Norway has less than five million people, and its army only has 6 incomplete infantry divisions, but its position is important. As long as the British are really determined, they can occupy Norway in any week. This is a great danger to the imperial cause!
Therefore, in order to secure our iron ore base in the north and provide our navy and air force with a broader starting line to attack Britain, we should occupy Norway...or even Denmark with bold actions and surprise!"
"Is this time to launch an attack on Norway?" Keitel looked at Hitler in disbelief. Hitler nodded and said, "You can't even imagine that, let alone others, as long as we keep the intelligence secret, we will definitely win! Himmler, you
Can you do it?”
Himmler immediately saluted and said, "My Führer, I will never let Paris and London smell anything."
Hitler looked at Keitel. Although Keitel felt a little risky about having an extraneous incident at this time when the Yellow Plan was about to be implemented, he still said, "My Führer, please rest assured that Norway will plant our flag!"
On December 10, 1940, the German army dispatched 100,000 men to attack Norway, and occupied the landing port with less than 200 casualties.

"According to the intelligence we received, the German army divided its troops into two groups. One group attracted our attention from the front. The other group, following Germany's offensive line during the last war, marched into the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Finally, they prepared to fight with us, Britain and France in France.
The decisive battle of the coalition forces. And here, we have prepared more than a hundred divisions of troops waiting for their arrival. Everyone, the largest battle of annihilation in the world is coming. We will use cannons and bullets to tell the Germans that last time
They lost, this time...it's still the same!" The proud French commander-in-chief Gamelin introduced his troop formation to Chamberlain and others.
Chamberlain hummed and said, "This time I want to thank Belgium a lot. If we defeat Hitler easily, I suggest giving Belgium certain benefits."
Anyway, they were not taking something out of their own pockets. The others nodded, as if Hitler was already lying at their feet, and it was not 1940, but 1918.
"Knock, knock, knock!" A rapid knock on the door disturbed everyone's imagination. Everyone looked at the closed door with unkind expressions. Gamelin signaled a staff officer to get up and open the door. He only saw a civil servant. The civil servant hurriedly hurriedly opened the door.
He handed a piece of intelligence to Daladier and said, "The news just came that the German army has landed in Norway."
"What?" Everyone was surprised. Now everyone can smell the smoke in the air. The two armies, which have been waiting for almost a year, are ready. The war is about to begin, but at this time the German army
To attack the north?
Gamelin is the commander-in-chief of the French army, and is also a military expert and authority on explanations. He looked at the eyes of everyone looking at him, touched his beard, and suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, I see. It seems that Germany has learned from last time."
The lessons of the war."
Chamberlain asked, "General Gan Molin, could you please explain?"
Gamelin smiled and said, "Where did the German army lose in the last war? It was because of multi-faceted fighting. In the end, we were defeated by our superior strength. So Hitler first won over the Soviet Union and stabilized the Western Front, and now he attacked Norway. He wanted to stabilize
We must avoid the dangers that may arise on the northern front, and then use all our strength to attack our eastern front. In other words, the war will break out in two months."
Chamberlain didn't smile at all. It was because of his obstruction that the British and French forces were not forced to land in Norway. If Norway really fell, he would definitely be criticized by the parliament. You must know that his appeasement policy towards Germany had already been
It has made too many people dissatisfied. If he had not done a good job in restoring the prestige within the party and the domestic economy, he would have been ousted long ago.
Chamberlain looked at the world map on the wall and felt extremely strange. Was he really old? He couldn't help but think of that damn fat man. Maybe he was right.
And Daladier is also worried. If a war is imminent, no one will propose to replace him at this time. But now that the German military front is pointing to the north, those who have been suppressed for a long time will probably jump out soon, appease and support traitors? I am all for them.
I've thought about the news headlines.
Hitler never dreamed that his strategic deception would not only allow the German army to once again show its prowess and occupy Norway within a month, but also cause the British and French governments to step down at the same time and reorganize their cabinets. But if he was allowed to choose his opponents,
, I’m afraid he is still more willing to face that Chamberlain, rather than the dead fat man who is about to jump onto the stage of history.
The war in Europe started from a direction that no one expected. In the east, the morning star shone brightly. Jiang Cheng looked at the fleet of planes going away, exhaled a long breath, and finally arrived safely in Lianyungang.
Xu Guangda was counting. After counting three times to make sure that no soldier died on the road, he let out a long breath. These soldiers are all precious.
"203, should we hurry up and join Comrade Lin Sanhu?" After ordering the soldiers, Xu Guangda was thinking about fighting.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Of course, Okamura Neiji is concentrating his troops on Linyi. We don't have many people there and can't support it for long, so we must use the fastest speed and the most violent attack to completely disrupt the Japanese army's position."
I have arranged a car for us in northwest Shandong, and we will take action immediately after four hours of rest."
