Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

At present, the maximum combat radius of the jet fighters of the army aviation of various countries in the world is 900-1100 kilometers. In fact, if more ammunition is added, this number may be reduced by 7%!

The combat radius of Haizhou State's main fighter Qinglong-2 can reach a maximum of 1100 kilometers after adding two auxiliary fuel tanks!

Yokosuka is 2500 kilometers away from the nearest military base in Kaishu Province, on Banuwang Island in northeastern Philippines. It can only carry out airborne fighter transfers and is unable to provide air combat support at all!

Therefore, Yokosuka’s position is indeed somewhat awkward. The Haizhou Kingdom’s Army Aviation cannot provide support, and it is surrounded by US military bases in Busan, Okinawa, Guam and other places!

Ding Shan continued,

"It is possible that the Japanese Self-Defense Forces will continue to attack the base tonight!"

Yin Xinjun frowned and looked at the map.

"Send a message to Lin Jiwen. The Yokosuka base must not be lost! Where is our aircraft carrier now?"

Deputy Navy Commander Guo Qiang stood up and walked to the map.

"President, the two battle groups of the Navy currently stationed in Yokosuka, the "Guiying!" and the "Qi Jiguang!" are temporarily evading the southwest to receive reinforcements from the Navy's carrier-based aircraft. Their location is here, about 300 nautical miles away from Yokosuka!

After the Guanyu aircraft carrier met up with the Jingpo Lake battleship, the Jingpo Lake is currently heading west back to the Banuwang base for overhaul and supplies, while the Guanyu is continuing to head north, and is still 260 nautical miles away from the Guiying and Qi Jiguang!

The three aircraft carrier battle groups, namely the Iron State, the White Dragon and the Han State, are currently scattered and are about 1000-1500 nautical miles away from Japan!

The Jinlong and Wen Tianxiang aircraft carrier battle groups have already departed from the Banuwang port and are currently on their way to Okinawa! They should still be 410 nautical miles away from Okinawa!"

Ding Shan explained,

"Mr. President, tonight, the Army Aviation Corps and the Navy Aviation Corps plan to concentrate 750 fighter planes to attack Okinawa! The threat posed by American aircraft here is quite high!"

Yin Xinjun nodded with satisfaction.

"Well done. I won't be attending this meeting. Ding Shan, you guys continue the discussion. Don't worry about the money and supplies. Just do it!"

After that, he stood up, shook hands with everyone, and left the meeting room.

Ding Shan is in charge of the Asia-Pacific theater, so there is no need for him to interfere in too many details. He can just go home and be with his wife and children!

As soon as Yin Xinjun left, Ding Shan immediately issued a combat order.

"Order......"

Yokosuka,

The outskirts of Haizhou National Base!

The night was like thick ink, pressing heavily on the snow-white ground.

Kazuo Nakamura, a soldier from the 1st Division of the Self-Defense Forces, and his comrades, all wearing white windbreakers, moved through the darkness like ghosts, the hard soil making slight sounds under their feet.

His heart was beating violently in his chest, and every beat seemed to be beating a tense drum. The rifle in his hand was cold and heavy, as if it was his only connection with an unknown fate.

Their target is the left wing of the Yokosuka base, which is almost entirely farmland, and at the end of the farmland is the barbed wire fence of the base!

Outside the barbed wire, there is a minefield about 50 meters wide. There are several wooden signs randomly inserted in the minefield, which read "Beware of mines!"

Of course, the Self-Defense Forces had already grasped these situations in advance!

The engineers lying on the ground, wearing heavy cotton clothes, were like dancers dancing on the edge of life and death, carefully using tools to explore the death traps hidden under every inch of land.

At this moment, Kazuo Nakamura and thousands of his comrades were like silent sculptures, lying together in the cold snow.

Every inch of skin that touches the snow can clearly feel the coldness like needles piercing into the bone marrow, freezing people to the point of almost losing consciousness.

There was deathly silence all around, with only the whistling of the biting cold wind, like the eerie sigh of death.

The engineers carefully checked for deadly traps hidden in the snow - mines. Every slight movement worried everyone.

On a reinforced concrete bunker ahead, two searchlights were scanning back and forth continuously, occasionally sweeping over the lurking Self-Defense Force members!

Kazuo Nakamura's heart was beating violently in his chest, like a drum. He could hear the heavy breathing of his companions beside him, the sound of which was full of tension and anticipation.

They knew very well that every extra second of waiting would increase the danger, but they could only endure silently, waiting for the signal from the engineers in this icy and snowy environment!

However, the gears of fate always turn relentlessly.

An engineer's demining tool accidentally detonated a chain mine.

In an instant, there was a loud "bang", as if the gate of hell was opened. The flames of the explosion were particularly dazzling in the darkness, and the shock wave blew the unfortunate engineer away.

The searchlights on the bunkers were like the eyes of the devil, shining all over at once. The strong white light illuminated the minefield as bright as day.

Then, the sound of machine guns in the bunker rang out like a storm, and the dense bullets were like deadly meteors, weaving a web of death above the minefield. Red blood flowers immediately bloomed on the backs of several engineers, and the engineers were instantly trapped in despair.

Kazuo Nakamura opened his eyes wide, watching this sudden change, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.

There was a series of gunshots and the searchlight was extinguished by the bullets. However, several flares were suddenly fired from the direction of the bunker, illuminating the entire snow field as if it were daytime!

Then, one shell after another exploded in the snow, each of which could take the lives of several Self-Defense Force members!

Kazuo Nakamura suddenly heard fierce gunfire coming from the direction of the commercial street. That was the main attack direction of the division. It was estimated that after hearing the gunfire here, the attack over there began!

Suddenly, several members of the Self-Defense Force stood out from the team. They were Ono, Kawada, and Matsumoto. There was no fear in their eyes, only determination and resoluteness.

"We can't wait any longer. We will use our bodies to clear the way for everyone!"

Ono shouted loudly, his voice still clearly audible amid the noise of gunfire. After that, he was the first to rush into the minefield, followed by Kawada and Matsumoto.

Kazuo Nakamura looked at their backs, and his eyes were moistened instantly. He saw Ono rolling rapidly in the minefield, and every roll was accompanied by the danger of being hit by machine guns, but he did not flinch.

Suddenly, he triggered a landmine, and the huge explosion made Kazuo Nakamura's ears hurt.

Ono's body was blown into the air, blood splattering in the air, but after he landed, he struggled and continued to roll forward.

Kawada and Matsumoto followed behind Ono and also rolled hard in the minefield. They had multiple injuries on their bodies and their uniforms were stained with blood, but their movements were still firm and powerful, leaving three long red blood marks on the snow!

"They are true warriors!" Nakamura Kazuo was overwhelmed with respect and emotion, and tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably. The comrades around him were also shocked by this scene, some with tears in their eyes, some clenched their fists, their eyes full of anger and fighting spirit.

"Charge for victory!" the corps commander suddenly shouted, his voice filled with grief and anger.

The comrades rushed towards the bunker like tigers with full anger!
