Chapter 512 I'm not bragging, I just scratched so many things that I really became a rich man!
Li Yunlong led the armored troops to kill people in Taiyuan Airport. One fighter plane after another was blown into several sections by artillery fire. The raging fire spread all over the airport, and the burning black smoke even covered the entire sky above the airport. The burning rubber tires at the airport released a large amount of black smoke, which had a great impact on people's vision and caused great interference to the Japanese fighter planes that were taking off.
One after another, the Japanese fighter planes could not see the obstacles in front of them clearly during takeoff, and they directly hit the obstacles in front of them, lost their balance, and crashed on the airport runway. This made Fujiwara Ichiro and Sato Ichiro very distressed. Among the six fighter planes that took off urgently, only two fighter planes successfully left the airport runway and left Taiyuan Airport under the cover of smoke.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, so far, we have successfully launched 28 fighters in total. Most of the remaining fighters have been destroyed. Even if there are fighters that are lucky enough to be preserved, it is probably difficult to complete the takeoff and landing of the fighters in such a smoke-filled situation."
"We should stop this risky action. Pilots are much more valuable than fighter planes. In the past hour, we have lost 18 pilots and 26 flight trainees. This is beyond our tolerance limit. I request to start the evacuation immediately. If we continue to stay at the airport, our losses will only become greater."
"If a fighter plane is lost, it can be rebuilt. But if a person is lost, it takes at least 20 days to grow up, and it takes less than an hour to produce a fighter plane. Previously, we did not have enough resources, so we had to use the fighter planes we produced sparingly. But now our southward operation is going very smoothly, and we have obtained a large amount of raw materials such as rubber and oil. The fundamental reason that has plagued the empire's fighter plane production capacity has been solved. In the next year, the Inner Empire's fighter plane production capacity will usher in a big explosion."
"According to the information I got from my subordinates in mainland China, we will increase the production capacity of fighter jets to an annual output of 100 aircraft before June next year. It will only take six or seven days to produce all of the more than 16 aircraft on time. As for the responsibility for the attack on the airport, it really cannot be attributed to my th Flying Division. Our air force can only control the sky but not the ground. The real person responsible should be Ichiro Matsubara, and he should be held accountable for this attack." Ichiro Fujiwara persuaded solemnly.
The reason why Sato Ichiro was reluctant to retreat was that he did not want to take the responsibility for the damage to the fighter plane. If he could not handle this matter well, he would have to commit seppuku to apologize. Fortunately, Fujiwara Ichiro gave him a way out and gave him sufficient reasons. After polishing it a little in his mind, he was confident that he could get himself out of this incident.
Sato Ichiro used to dislike Fujiwara Ichiro, but now he likes him more and more. The life-and-death crisis made him give up the dispute between the army and the navy. He agreed excitedly: "Fujiwara, what you said makes a lot of sense. Pilots are indeed more valuable than fighter planes. In order to protect the empire's property, immediately order all pilots to speed up their retreat. Don't worry about the fighter planes on the runway. Escape from Taiyuan Airport first."
"The responsibility this time lies entirely with that bastard Ichiro Matsubara. He should have been on alert when the anti-aircraft alarm sounded for the first time, but he didn't take it seriously at all and lied to us that everything was normal. Otherwise, our losses would never have been so great. At least half of the fighters could have survived, but now only less than 20% of the fighters have managed to escape. If this guy was in front of me now, I would definitely chop him in half with the command knife in my hand to vent my hatred."
After a few fake complaints, Sato Ichiro immediately got on the truck and left the Taiyuan Airport from the back door under the guidance of Fujiwara Ichiro. Under the protection of more than 500 ground crew members, more than 60 pilots and 200 flight trainees followed Sato Ichiro and left Taiyuan Airport under the cover of smoke. The first moment they left the airport, they did not stop, but rushed to Erlipu like crazy, where there was a simple airport. Only after arriving there could they be truly safe.
Li Yunlong looked at the Taiyuan Airport, whose view was obscured by black smoke, with a helpless expression on his face. Just now he was worried that the Japanese would send out air force to bomb, but now he didn't have to worry at all. The entire Taiyuan Airport was shrouded in thick smoke caused by burning rubber, and visibility became very low. Even he had to wear a gas mask. The thick smoke was so dense that it penetrated directly through the gaps in the vehicles, choking Li Yunlong and making him cough repeatedly.
"Zhang Dabiao, you lead the soldiers to attack the Japanese arsenal and fuel depot immediately. I sent a tank company to attack before, but there has been no news so far. I estimate that they have been firmly blocked by the Japanese. You lead the people to go there quickly. After I take the remaining soldiers to blow up the fighter planes on the runway one by one, we will immediately evacuate Taiyuan Airport. This raid has been successfully completed. I will contact the college students to see how the attack on Taiyuan City is going."
After Li Yunlong arranged everything at the airport, he immediately asked the telegraph operator to connect with Lin Zhenhua. After receiving Li Yunlong's call, Lin Zhenhua, who had just left the bank vault, quickly answered the call.
"Old Li, how is the situation over there? My progress is pretty smooth. We have now entered Taiyuan city and successfully occupied the Japanese bank vault. The money in it is worth at least 3000 million oceans. We are really going to make a fortune this time!" Lin Zhenhua said excitedly, holding the intercom in his hand.
Li Yunlong scratched his ears. He suspected that he had heard wrongly. He asked in disbelief, "College student, are you kidding me? It's only been an hour and you have already taken over Taiyuan City. Why can't I believe it?"
Lin Zhenhua laughed happily and said, "Old Li, I really didn't lie to you this time. Besides, when have I ever lied to you? You can't slander my innocence out of thin air. I have the nickname of an honest and reliable young man. You can't put the blame on me. I won't agree to that."
"I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you about our battle results, so that you can see my military command level, so that you don't have to act like the boss is the boss and you're the boss. Li Yunlong is indeed better than me in fighting, but not by much. I'd like to chat with you while I have some free time."
"We have now successfully captured the two gates of Taiyuan City, the North Gate and the East Gate. As for the city, we have now occupied the Japanese headquarters, and the soldiers are collecting the spoils left behind by the Japanese. The strike against the second group of Japanese in Taiyuan City is also underway. I estimate that we can get several million dollars from these people. Now we have become real rich people and don't have to worry about money anymore."
"Before, Chen Minggeng had always wanted to lower the price of our medicines. This time, we will settle the bill with gold and dollars. I want to see what other tricks he has. After using money to settle the bill, we can greatly reduce the pressure on our medicine production. In order to produce more medicines, we have transferred a large number of people to do this, which has seriously affected our weapons production. Otherwise, we would have no problem stockpiling 20% more ammunition than now."
"With the money, we can quickly rebuild our intelligence network. There are many greedy devils, and they can take this opportunity to buy intelligence from them, and even build a dense land transportation line. In short, it's good to have this money. We can finally become rich and powerful. No one does a business that loses money these days, but if we can get several times the profit, I estimate that the devils will also cut their heads and put a hand in it. As long as there is a problem inside the devil, then the blockade of us will become a joke, and we can still get supplies from the outside world continuously."
"College students, we found an arsenal of the Japanese. There are more than 1300 Type 38 rifles, 16 light machine guns, 36 heavy machine guns, 80 Type 62 infantry guns, 20 1000mm mortars, more than bullets and more than artillery shells. They are being loaded onto trucks urgently and are expected to be transported within an hour." Xiao Zhongyuan reported excitedly.
Lin Zhenhua put down the intercom in his hand, his face full of smiles, and ordered excitedly: "Xiao Zhongyuan, you did a great job. Let the soldiers hurry up to load the trucks. With this batch of weapons and ammunition, we will be more confident when the battle starts."
"In addition to the Japanese arsenal, we also need to find their food warehouses and take away all the canned food in them. We will distribute the food to the people in the city. I want to see how the Japanese, who have lost their food supplies, can fight this battle next."
Looking at Xiao Zhongyuan's back as he left, Lin Zhenhua put the intercom to his lips again and said excitedly, "Old Li, did you hear what Xiao Zhongyuan said just now? I'm not bragging, the whole city of Taiyuan is full of treasures. If I just scratch a little, I can make a fortune."
"I was so busy arguing with you that I almost forgot to ask you about the Taiyuan Airport. What stage has the battle reached now? Have you destroyed all the Japanese fighter planes at the airport? This matter is very important and it affects the subsequent battle situation!"
