The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters

At 5:00 a.m., Gao Mingjiu and Zhou Guangyi received a secret telegram from Long Fei, ordering all seventy H-6K bombers to take off and raid Vladivostok.

In addition, Long Fei ordered all fighter jets that had been transferred to Liaoning to take off.

In addition to twenty J-5s and ten J-6Gs serving as escorts for bombers and participating in attacks on fleets and bases.

The remaining one hundred J-7G fighters immediately launched airstrikes against various military targets of Russia in the Far East, including airfields, armored units, and artillery camps.

All 170 fighter jets of the Dragon Flame Legion Air Force took off quickly and orderly from various airports in Shenyang, and then flew at full speed toward their respective targets.

The straight-line distance between Shenyang and Vladivostok is about 700 kilometers, which can be reached in just over 40 minutes by the speed of a H-6K bomber.

The J-7G is a supersonic fighter jet with a speed of over 2,000 kilometers per hour, and it only takes about half an hour to fly to various regions in the Far East of Russia.

At this moment in Vladivostok, although it was already broad daylight, all the officers and soldiers of the Russian Pacific Fleet and base personnel, except for those on duty, were fast asleep.

It wasn't until August to October 1940 that the Lion Kingdom used radar for the first time during the Battle of Britain to warn of bombing raids by the Hanseatic Air Force.

Therefore, the Rakshasa Kingdom currently lacks radar technology, which allows the Dragon Flame Legion's air force to operate with impunity, remaining completely undetected by the enemy.

When the H-6K bombers and their escorting J-5 and J-6 fighters arrived in Vladivostok and launched attacks on the warships anchored in the port and the naval base.

The soldiers of the Rakshasa Kingdom were then awakened from their sleep.

Upon hearing the huge explosion, their first thought was whether they had been ambushed by the Japanese.

罗刹国海参崴太平洋海军基地，目前停靠着2艘巡洋舰、10艘驱逐舰、16艘巡逻艇、2艘鱼雷艇、10艘布雷艇、50艘扫雷艇、68艘潜艇、另外还有小型的摩托鱼雷艇204艘。

Although this is not all the warships of the opposing Pacific Fleet, it has already filled the entire naval port.

Tragically, these warships are now nothing more than target ships in the face of the Dragon Flame Legion's air force.

One after another, YJ-12 supersonic missiles, carried by the H-6K bomber, were launched at high speed toward the locked target.

After the missiles struck the warship, they produced a series of deafening explosions, and fireballs shot into the air.

Many officers and soldiers of the Russian Pacific Fleet were hit by the warship before they could even leave the cabin. Many were killed instantly, and those who survived sank to the bottom of the sea along with their warship.

The once tranquil naval port was instantly transformed into a sea of ​​fire and a living hell.

The base was equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft guns, but most of them were destroyed by aerial bombs dropped by J-5 and J-6 fighters before the personnel could even arrive.

The base's oil depots, ammunition depots, supply warehouses, and numerous coastal defense artillery pieces were also subjected to indiscriminate attacks.

The first wave of attacks lasted only a few minutes before it ended.

All fighter jets immediately returned to base to reload ammunition and launch a second wave of attacks.

Even with only the first wave of attacks, the Russian Pacific Fleet has already suffered heavy losses.

Apart from more than fifty motor torpedo boats and seven submarines, all the remaining cruisers, destroyers, patrol boats, torpedo boats, minelayers, and minesweepers were sunk or severely damaged.

This is because the H-6K bomber carries a limited number of missiles, making it impossible to destroy so many warships at once.

Furthermore, using the YJ-12 to shoot down these motorized torpedo boats is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito—it's simply not worth it.

In order to carry out the second wave of attacks as soon as possible, the returning H-3 bombers, except for ten that continued to carry YJ-12 anti-tank missiles, were all loaded with 500-kilogram aerial bombs.

This bomb can easily sink enemy motor torpedo boats and ground targets at bases.

The people of Russia were foolish; they thought the air raid was over after it ended.

Instead of immediately moving the remaining submarines and motor torpedo boats out of the naval port to seek refuge, they did not.

Instead, they were busy reporting to their superiors while simultaneously putting out the fire and rescuing the injured.

Two hours later, the Dragon Flame Legion's second wave of air attacks followed.

This time, the remaining seven submarines and more than fifty motor torpedo boats were all sunk without exception.

Moreover, the entire Vladivostok naval base was once again extensively devastated.

The Dragon Flame Legion's air force fighters returned to base satisfied after finding no more targets worth attacking.

While Vladivostok was under attack, Long Fei's heavy combined arms brigade had already set up a pontoon bridge and successfully crossed the Suifen River.

Immediately, Long Fei divided his forces into a heavy combined arms battalion and ordered them to take over Vladivostok immediately.

Then Long Fei led his troops and advanced rapidly towards Khabarovsk in the north.

Vladivostok is only about 600 kilometers away from Khabarovsk.

At a speed of 70-80 kilometers per hour, it would take less than ten hours to get there, but you would need to refuel once along the way.

Long Fei judged that even if Zhukov received a report that the Pacific Fleet base in Vladivostok had been attacked, the other side would not immediately take a plane from Khabarovsk to escape.

However, if Zhukov discovers that a rapid armored force is advancing towards Khabarovsk at full speed, he will either have to mobilize troops to intercept it or may have to leave Khabarovsk.

Therefore, in addition to marching in secrecy, Long Fei also needed to reach Khabarovsk as soon as possible.

On the other side, after these 100 J-7G fighters took off, 30 of them headed to Novosibirsk Airport, Smirnekh Airport, and Sukharech Air Base in the Russian Far East.

The objective was to destroy the remaining two hundred or so enemy aircraft, thus completely depriving them of air superiority.

The other seventy J-7Gs will be used to launch airstrikes against various military targets in Russia's Far East region.

Especially the enemy's material reserve bases and ammunition depots.

War always requires logistical support, and once the supply bases and ammunition depots in the Far East of Russia are destroyed...

Then this army of over a million Rakshasa soldiers will soon find themselves in a dire situation of running out of ammunition and food.

Moreover, the enemy army will be in a state of low morale and will collapse at the first touch.

Therefore, when Zhukov received the news that the Pacific Fleet in Vladivostok had been subjected to a fierce air attack...

He then received a series of reports of air raids in various parts of the Far East.

Zhu Kefu was certain that this was the work of the Dragon Flame Legion's air force.

What he couldn't understand was how the Dragon Flame Legion's fighter jets could be so powerful.

And he responded quickly.

Zhukov not only ordered the troops of the Transbaikal Front to speed up their advance and quickly surround and capture Shenyang.

In his view, only in this way could the Dragon Flame Legion's air force be stopped from continuing its air raids.

As for the Dragon Flame Legion's army, Zhukov still didn't take them seriously.

He believed that with the Dragon Flame Legion's limited strength, they couldn't possibly stand up against his million-strong army.

The 500,000 troops they sent out were more than enough to completely crush the Dragon Flame Legion.
