Chapter 243 Battle on the Bund
Of course, Company Commander Smith and his soldiers understood: the minority defeated the majority and did not dare to stay on the battlefield for more.
I am afraid that when the Japanese army's follow-up team arrives, these people will not be able to escape.
When Wei Mingyang first wanted to get in the car and follow him, these Americans looked down on him at all.
Of course, they also looked down on all the soldiers of the National Army.
If the national strength is not good, it will be difficult to win the respect of others if it cannot defeat the enemy's team. Wei Mingyang is very clear about this.
Now when these American soldiers saw the corpses of Japanese devils all over the ground and were full of bullet craters, their eyes changed when they looked at the guard platoon.
No longer as contemptuous as he had just started, even Colonel Stilwell's attitude towards Commander Lu changed:
"Lu Tuan! Is this really the result of your battle with less than 400 people?"
Commander Lu said with a serious expression: "We have paid more than 200 brothers' lives to annihilate this area of Japanese devils."
The Americans saw the wreckage of the airship. The airship hoist basket was not big, but the airbag was very large and very eye-catching in the wilderness.
The car stopped not far from the wreckage.
Colonel Stilwell saw that the bodies around the airship were already neatly arranged, and frowned: "Is anyone here coming first?"
Commander Lu said: "When we were holding our positions there, the airship crashed.
The Japanese plane ran away and sent a platoon to check the situation.
It was Battalion Commander Wei who brought them over to check the situation.”
Hearing him say this, Xiao Lei and Delis immediately understood: the watches on the wrists of these soldiers must have been taken from the bodies of these people.
Wei Mingyang took out a shorthand notebook and said to Xiao Lei: "Reporter Xiao! There is something here, you can take a photo first."
Opening the book and finding the last record of Ross, Delis recognized it at a glance: "This is Ross's thing."
Wei Mingyang said: "Yes, the lady's name is Rose, and she is still accusing the Japanese of her crimes at the last moment of her life."
"Give it to me!" Delis stretched out her hand.
"This is the most important evidence of this incident. You can take photos, but the original cannot be given to you."
A dispute broke out here, which attracted Stilwell's attention.
He strode over and asked, "What happened?"
Delis told Wei Mingyang about the shorthand that Rose had in his hand.
Stilwell also heard Wei Mingyang say the reason, pondered for a moment, and said, "Can I take a look?"
"I hold it in my hand, you can see it, and take photos! But let's take photos with the airbag first!
I'm always worried about the long night and the dreams are too many."
...
Hasegawa Kiyoshi received a question from Matsui Ishien, but he really didn't know the situation.
However, judging from the news reported by Matsui Ishione, this matter is much more serious than the last time the aviation troops attacked the British minister.
Last time it was just a country, but this time the airship of the military observation team of many countries was offending the whole world.
He was so scared that he quickly asked about the truth about Kawasaki Taichi's incident.
Kawasaki Taiichi Air Brigade, who could not be concealed, was a bachelor, and told the truth in its original form.
"Baoge! You stupid pig! Why don't you tell me in advance!"
Hasegawa Kiyoshi was angry. These idiots thought that if they didn't say it, no one would know?
You must know that there are ears in the partition walls, and there are people in the haystacks on the roadside!
What should I do now? To save it?
For the same issue, the Japanese staff at the Shanghai Expeditionary Army Command began to think about the news as soon as they got the news.
Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. These staff members really thought of a way: destroy the evidence, so that they can continue to push the responsibility on the national army.
Without evidence, everyone exerted their own strength. The Great Japanese Empire was strong and its voice was much stronger than that of the National Government.
Without evidence, most people in the world believe in the Great Japanese Empire.
Just when Hasegawa Kiyoshi, the commander of the Third Navy, didn't know what to do, the Shanghai Expeditionary Force Command issued a new order:
"Immediately dispatch a group of bombers to burn the wreckage of the airship, and destroy the corpses and traces no matter what. At least, people will never see any results."
When it comes to destroying corpses and traces, to achieve such a goal, of course, it is best to burn fire.
There was nothing I could find in the scene of a pile of ashes, and could be pushed to the Kuomintang army and said they were burned.
Hasegawa Kiyoshi, who had found a solution, was no longer angry, and it restored the commander's calmness.
Order Kawasaki Taichi: "You, immediately lead the entire fleet's bombers and set off, and burn the airship immediately."
What he said was burned, not fried.
"But Commander: The plane cannot land there, it can only be forced to land!" Captain Kawasaki Taichi was in a very difficult situation.
"Eight grids! Use sulfur bombs, use incendiary bombs! Use gasoline bombs! No matter what you use, you must burn the airship to the point of not even leaving the ashes."
"Hayi!" Captain Kawasaki Taichi Squadron reminded the commander.
Suddenly, it seemed like a window was opened and I understood what I was going to do.
An order was issued immediately: "All bombers were loaded with sulfur bombs, gasoline incendiary bombs, and attack immediately."
This time, the ammunition required by the aviation team of the Navy's Third Fleet was not conventional ammunition.
The time it took was significantly longer than usual to prepare ammunition, and it took an hour and a half to load these special ammunition onto the bomber.
During this one and a half hours, Captain Kawasaki Taiichi explained all the tasks and requirements that needed to be completed this time to the entire attacking brigade.
Then he led the cross bombers and the cross fighter jets to air.
This is to keep this mission confidential and keep this mission confidential, so all the pilots who performed this mission were the ones who escaped back on the Second Battalion in the morning.
Even the bomber crew only distributed the thirty crew members of the five bombers who escaped back in the morning to the ten bombers to carry out their missions.
Kawasaki Taichi Air Captain has only one purpose: keep it confidential!
The bomber squadron leader Shiro Ando knew very well: this time it caused the incident, and the entire aviation team was wiping its butt.
Even the entire Japanese Navy Third Fleet was wiping its panic when it encountered a blow.
Therefore, when Captain Ando Shiro was soaring in the air this time, he had already made up his mind to complete the task no matter what.
Completely erase the traces of that airship from this world.
The atmosphere was very depressing during the entire flight brigade's mission, and all the pilots knew that this mission was not difficult.
But the significance is too great. If the completion is not done well and the Westerners are caught, the image of the empire will be greatly affected internationally.
It will even attract Western countries to attack the empire.
The atmosphere during the flight is dull and the flight speed is extremely fast.
It arrived at the battlefield less than ten minutes after launching. It was ten kilometers away from the place where the airship fell. Ando Shiro had already discovered the battlefield.
Wei Mingyang reminded Colonel Stilwell to organize manual inspections and take photos first.
Colonel Stilwell brought over with him enough men and waved his hand: "Captain Smith! Work!"
