Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal

Ever since the Japanese launched the Hutoushan offensive, the entire Northeast has become restless.

The devils collected supplies from the sea, Korea, and locally.

The Punitive Army also sent the first and second regiments down the mountain to attack fiercely from two directions, sweeping all the way, completely wiping out the traitors and Japanese pioneer groups within a hundred miles, and confiscating a large number of laborers.

This made the Japs a little anxious, mainly because the colonization by the pioneer groups was the national policy of the Japs and it must be implemented firmly, but the Punishment Army was like a mad dog, beating the pioneer groups!

Although the pioneer group is an organized militia, they can only bully local people. When facing the punitive army, it is like cutting melons and vegetables.

The Japanese became anxious, so they sent bombers to attack Hutoushan many times.

Individual batches of bombers successfully dropped bombs on residential and industrial areas within the mountains.

Some batches were intercepted by anti-aircraft weapons and suffered some damage.

In any case, the Japs had already made the bombing of Hutoushan a daily task and had to come twice a day.

This did have an impact on production and life in Hutoushan. With bombers flying overhead, everyone would be panicked.

Fortunately, air defense was taken into consideration from the beginning of the construction of Hutoushan. The civilian houses all have cellars, and the factories are either built against the mountain or have ceramic steel armor and soil layers on the top.

Li Qinwu's response to the Japanese bombing was "It's rude not to reciprocate"!

While quickly evacuating the civilians in Hutou Mountain, he ordered bombers to attack the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Fengtian, the Lushun Military Port, and the Japanese outposts on the Korean border.

The punitive forces used the Farman F50 bomber, a bomber produced by France during World War I. It could carry 500 kilograms of bombs and fly 1000 kilometers.

This thing is the most bomber that Li Qinwu got from Fengtian Airport. There are 4 of them. They are also the bombers in the best condition. In the previous life, these planes were all seized by the Japanese. Now they have all become the air force of the Punishment Army.

Li Qinwu has always been suppressing the Punishment Army's air force, mainly because the planes he has are too backward, and once his clone goes up to the sky, he will become a target for the Japanese planes.

Li Qinwu meant that they should buy a batch of new aircraft from foreign countries, whose performance could at least be on par with that of the Japanese, and then send the Air Force to fight the Japanese.

However, the Punitive Army has almost accumulated enough knowledge about the Air Force. The Air Force Club in the United States already has clones. In addition to the technical accumulation from reading books, the clones often go into the sky for practical training and can now fly military aircraft.

Li Qinwu specially created a group of clones to fly planes. There was nothing special about them. He just maxed out their vision so that these pilots had night vision capabilities, allowing them to fly planes out to fight at night.

Four bombers lined up on the runway, their two engines and propellers spinning rapidly, and they flew into the sky one after another.

It was now late at night. Four bombers formed a formation in the air and flew into the sky. They rose directly to the maximum altitude of 5000 meters and flew towards Fengtian at a cruising speed of 136 kilometers per hour.

The straight-line distance between Hutou Mountain and Fengtian is more than 400 kilometers, just enough for a Farman F50 bomber to fly back and forth.

After the two bombers arrived over Fengtian City, they split into two groups.

One group went to bomb the Fengtian branch of the Toyo Takushoku Corporation, the temporary Kwantung Army headquarters. After the September 18 Incident, the Japanese moved the headquarters from Lushun to Fengtian in order to command operations nearby.

The Fengtian Branch of Toyo Takushoku Co., Ltd. is a three-story Western-style building covering a large area.

After the Japanese occupied Fengtian, they occupied several nearby commercial streets. The stationing conditions here were better. The original owners were driven away or killed by them, so those who lived here were all Japanese, and there was no fear of accidental injury.

Another group flew to Fengtian Airport. The Japanese flew to Hutoushan twice a day. It was so annoying. They just smashed your airport!

The four bombers descended to below 1000 meters. Because the pilots had night vision capabilities and were given guidance by people sent below in advance and dropped smoke bombs, the bombing was relatively accurate.

A large number of bombs were dropped from planes, in addition to bombs, there were also a large number of modified napalm bombs.

These petrol bombs are placed in ceramic steel shells, with time fuses and impact fuses installed inside.

Ideally, the time fuse would explode when the bomb is about 50 to 100 meters above the ground, igniting 10 kilograms of napalm and spreading the fire rain over an area of ​​about 30 meters.

These time fuses are very reliable. Zero made them when he had time. Half of these bombers carried 20-kilogram bombs, and the other half carried napalm bombs.

When the bombers entered the low-altitude bombing phase, the Japanese soldiers below noticed something was wrong. There was a buzzing sound in the sky late at night. It seemed that their planes were not capable of taking off at night?

The air defense alarm rang out and a few searchlights were pointed at the night sky, but the Japanese had no idea that they would be attacked by the enemy. There were almost no air defense facilities, let alone anti-aircraft guns, and there were not even a few searchlights.

In the huge Fengtian city, there are only two or three scattered light beams, and only the airport has a few searchlights.

The Japs paid the price for their laziness. The Punishment Army's bombers descended to 700 meters to drop bombs, which was almost face-to-face.

Bombs of all kinds fell from the belly of the plane, starting with aerial bombs. Dozens of them fell on the Kwantung Army headquarters and its affiliated buildings, creating clouds of smoke and dust.

The destructive power of a 20kg aerial bomb is much greater than that of a 155mm artillery shell. Each bomb can destroy two or three rooms. The people living down there are all high-ranking officers of the Japanese devils. It is unknown how many Japanese officers were killed in this explosion.

Following the aerial bombs were napalm bombs, which fell a little later. After the aerial bombs blew up the roofs of the houses, the napalm bombs exploded in the air.

The burning napalm was fully spread by the explosion, turning into a rain of fire that fell on the Kwantung Army Headquarters which had just been bombed by aerial bombs.

The sea of ​​fire instantly spread across the streets occupied by the Japanese. Some unlucky people who were touched by the flames screamed in agony and then were burned to charcoal.

On the other side, explosions were also heard at Fengtian Airport, followed by an air-blast fire rain attack.

The Fengtian Airport had been destroyed by Li Qinwu before, and the concrete apron had been blown up. The Japanese built a temporary hangar with wooden boards, and some large aircraft were simply parked on the open space.

This time, they were attacked by aerial bombs and napalm bombs, and a large number of precious planes were bathed in flames, causing heavy losses to the Japanese aviation weapons.
