Chapter 180 Armored Assault Group
The Japanese investigation results finally came out. Their explanation for attacking the Predator was to slightly adjust the order of the incident. The Ryuta cruiser accidentally exploded and sank during night training. The Navy suspected that it was attacked by torpedoes. At this time, the Predator happened to be nearby, so it was mistaken for a hostile cruiser, so it was attacked. As for why they saw each other and fought fiercely at dawn, there is no need to delve into this.
As for the sinking of the Izumo, it was also an accident and the ammunition was self-destructing. Japan also had no face to admit that these two cruisers were sunk by the Raiders, although everyone knew this very well.
The most powerful navy in the Pacific has never had a yacht, and they can't say anything about this. Although it's not nice to say it, it's much stronger than being laughed at by someone. Besides, they even self-destructed battleships, so it's no big deal to admit that two cruisers aren't toothful.
But Yang Feng was justified in this way.
"Since it has been proven to be a misunderstanding, the Japanese government must apologize to me and compensate me for the losses! If you make a mistake, you will not admit your mistake. This is not a performance that a responsible government should have!" Yang Feng publicly clamored in the newspaper.
The Japanese government would not apologize to him! They could endure the disgust to recognize the two cruisers, which caused great dissatisfaction from the navy. Some young and strong officers even went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to cause trouble. If they apologize to Yang Feng again, the cabinet members would not be allowed to kill them with a knife!
Not only can we not apologize, we must continue to increase troops in Manzhou. The Japanese government announced that in order to cope with the increasingly severe bandits in Manzhou, at the invitation of the Emperor of Manzhou, the Japanese Army will once again increase troops to Manzhou. This time the increase is not entirely for dealing with China. If it is really as speculated by the outside world, it is the Russians who bombed Lushun and Nagasaki, then we must be wary of Comrade Joseph.
In this way, more than one-third of the Japanese army was deployed to the Northeast, 2, 4, 6, 8, and then plus the third and 7th divisions, and six permanent divisions. If North Korea's nineteen and 20th divisions were added, more than half of the Japanese army was deployed abroad. This is a terrible reality. Many Japanese knowledgeable people have already shouted the slogan of expanding their troops.
However, it is hindered by the cowardly officials of the cabinet. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the Japanese cabinet. After all, there are financial problems before them, especially now that China's money is becoming less and less profitable. Although Japan's plastic industry is booming, it is subject to the cost of crude oil, and at best it can make some hard money.
The humiliating trade balance tax of Miying's ghosts was tightened little by little like a noose on the neck of the Japanese plastic industry, and countless Japanese people were questioning why our powerful fleet could not bring us any justice, and why the Japanese Empire had to endure the humiliation of Miying's ghosts.
Of course, the Japanese government has no choice but to do anything about this.
In addition, the Navy resumed the establishment of the Lushun Guardian. The battleship Shejin, which had been retired as a target ship, was re-armed, and then stationed in the Lushun Guardian.
The sinking of Izumo made the Japanese know that the Raider was not easy to mess with. There must be ultra-long-range torpedoes on it. If you use cruisers to deal with it, it would be a waste of money, but using King Kong to deal with a small yacht is a bit of a big deal. Although the Shejin level is low, it is a battleship after all, it is a battleship with a heavy armor and a huge body with a displacement of more than 20,000 tons. Even if one or two of them are hit, it is enough to support it. As long as it can hold on, even if a 305 shell hits the Raider, it is enough to send it to the bottom of the sea.
After all, the Japanese are still a little unconfident. There are too many uncertainties when fighting with Yang Feng. No one knows how many new tricks this guy has yet to come up with. It would be a bit unworthy to take such risks with a battleship that shoulders the safety of the emperor. As for goods like Shejin, it doesn't matter, and it's no big deal if it sinks.
However, this news made Yang Feng very angry. He felt that the Japanese were insulting their personality.
"Ma, look down on me? Send such an old guy to deal with me? No matter how hard you have to get a King Kong to meet my identity!" He said angrily as he looked at the newspaper.
"You can't say that, it's not easy to deal with. No matter what, it's a battleship, with tonnage placed there. With our torpedo caliber, it's probably necessary to hit at least four more torrents if we want to sink it." Li Guotang said with a worried look on his face.
Now Yang Feng has solved the problem of reloading his torpedoes. There is no need to worry about not having to use the torpedo after three of them. However, Yang Feng bought a total of ten of these torpedoes, and now there are seven left. If he wants to completely kill Shensujin, he may have to use all of these seven.
"Don't worry, there will be good things to entertain it in the future." Yang Fengzhen said with a smile. After his submarine is transported, he can use it to practice his skills. However, the submarine crew must solve it in advance. This is different from a torpedo boat. The secret level can be said to be top secret.
"Where can I find so many loyal and obedient people?" This question gave Yang Feng a headache. He has been using his interests to maintain his group for a long time. Rather than saying that his subordinates are loyal to him, it is better to say that they are loyal to money, to their wives and children. Defending Pingjin is to defend Yang Feng, and defending Yang Feng is to defend his job. This is the consistent view of the Jinyuan system from merchants to soldiers, from rich people to cleaners. However, it is not very reassuring to let people with such thoughts run to drive submarines to help Yang Feng ambush the Japanese at sea.
However, xi brain has never been Yang Feng's strength in this regard, and he has no clone or slavery system. In this regard, Yang Feng is full of resentment towards his shuttle. What else can you do besides being able to pull some goods?
In this way, we can only find ways to find a way in hatred, such as going to the Northeast to start a massacre, unmanned villages, and people trap survivors in these places. If they are allowed to kill the Japanese as their profession, I believe it is still very feasible, but it will take some time.
Putting aside this issue for the time being, Yang Feng began to study his military expansion. Since the Japanese have increased their troops in the Northeast, of course he has to expand his military. He is too lazy to talk to the bald man again. Anyway, with his current mental state, no matter what he does, it is worth understanding.
Beiping, Nanyuan Airport.
Yang Feng, who had just returned two days ago, invited all the top figures in Ping and Tianjin to come here. Then he told them that there were good things to them and asked them to appreciate them.
"What else did you get?" Jiang Xiaoxian sat next to him and said impatiently. Although he had a good relationship with Yang Feng, he now knew that he should not be too close to this guy.
But Yang Feng did not have such an awareness at all. He liked to drag him along with him if he had anything to do. Even if he understood that he was to show frankness. But damn, can you change others? Don’t always cheat me alone? Do you know how much impact this will have on my career!
Jiang Xiaoxian expressed such anger with his eyes.
"Brother Xiaojian, you will know in a while!" Yang Feng turned a blind eye to the deep resentment in his eyes, sat on the lounge chair under the parasol, and leisurely gnawed on the iced watermelon.
At this moment, an airport manager came over and said a few words in Yang Feng's ear. The guy immediately became energetic.
"Here is here. Come!" He stood up and looked to the southeast with anticipation. Hundreds of guests gathered around stood up and looked up to see what made him so mysterious.
"Airplane?" Jiang Xiaoxian looked at the black dots that appeared in the sky and said with a puzzled look on his face.
Yang Feng smiled reservedly, and soon four four-engine large aircraft flew over the airport. The four aircraft were even bigger than Hercules, just like four ancient ferocious beasts hovering over the crowd, and the roar of the engine was deafening.
"Next, I will introduce the guests from the United States to the resident. The latest Liberator Heavy Bombers produced by Lockheed Company. In addition, they flew directly from Guam, and the pilots must be very tired. As for the flight performance, how many days will you have to wait." Yang Feng's voice sounded from the tweeter.
"Fly from Guam to Peiping?" Jiang Xiaoxian said next to him with some difficulty.
"Yes?" Yang Fengzhen said with a smile.
"How many bombs does it carry can fly back and forth from Peking to Japan?" Jiang Xiaoxian said in a trembling tone. He knew very well the meaning of this flight.
"It's hard to say. It depends on where you go to Japan. If you go to Tokyo, you will probably be able to bring three or four tons. I'm not very clear about the details." Yang Feng said.
"What are you buying this thing?" Jiang Xiaoxian asked with a vigilant look on his face. The Japanese had just attacked him. He got bombers that could bomb Tokyo. If you want to say that it doesn't matter, Jiang Xiaoxian firmly doesn't believe it.
"Don't talk nonsense, who said I bought it? Why am I, an ordinary person, to buy a bomber? This is a commercial display machine used by Lockheed for advertising, and it has nothing to do with me!" Yang Fengyi said righteously.
Jiang Xiao almost spitted on his face, and there was a commercial display aircraft. Your more than 30 commercial display aircraft have been displayed for two years and have not yet been ready to leave. Then Malockheed is yours. If you let these four aircraft be displayed in Peking for a lifetime, there will be no objection there. On the contrary, if someone dares to move these four aircraft, it will move the property of American companies. At least it will be a diplomatic dispute. A person is so shameless that he can be considered to be extremely successful.
He now also understood why Yang Feng had to drag him to wait here. Without any hesitation, Jiang Xiao turned around and sent a telegram to his uncle. Looking at his back, Yang Feng smiled conspiredly.
The arrival of four Liberator bombers seemed to cause an earthquake, and it spread out rapidly with Beiping as the source. From the distant South China to Japan, everyone had to re-examine the name Yang Feng. The bombing radius of more than 2,000 kilometers made it possible for Yang Feng to throw the bomb onto any person's head as long as Yang Feng wanted. The speed of 450 kilometers per hour and the flight altitude of up to 9,000 meters made no fighter able to intercept it now. Everyone, including Japan, could only endure this bomber helplessly.
What does this mean? This means that in front of Yang Feng, it is best for everyone to be honest, otherwise the bomb may fall into their home one day, especially for the Japanese. Before they want to play sea interception, it is best to think clearly.
However, the National Government did not respond to such a thing, because Yang Feng had already told the bald man through Jiang Xiaoxian that as long as the National Government can solve the problem of US Congress, Lockheed could sell this kind of bomber to China in exchange for goods.
If there is such a good thing, how could the bald man cause trouble for him?
The Japanese couldn't stand it anymore. Last time they suspected that Yang Feng bombed Lushun, but in the end they proved that he was innocent. The real culprit has not been found yet. But now Yang Feng really got bombers that can bomb Japan. This is another one who dares to throw bombs at Japan. How can the Japanese people live? A giant dragon that comes out from time to time, plus one light and one dark, two forces that can bomb Japan at any time. Why is the poor Japanese Empire always so many disasters?
When I asked the Americans to protest, the US government told them that this was just an ordinary commercial display and that they would leave after the display. As for when they were displayed, it depends on Lockheed's own arrangements. It is not convenient for us to intervene in normal commercial activities.
Anyway, Yang Feng is causing trouble for the Japanese, so the Americans are naturally very happy to watch the fun. Your Japanese Navy is carrying out exercises in the Pacific with our US Navy as an imaginary enemy, why don’t you say that?
If you look for Lockheed, there will be no result. There is no way to tell us about the trade secrets.
Just as they were jumping up and down, Yang Feng from Peking began to expand his army quietly again.
"Mechanized infantry?" This is the first time Sun Liren has heard of this concept.
"Yes, we only have three infantry brigades now, and we have severely lacking assault power. It is not good to only do passive defense, so I decided to add another mechanized infantry brigade, of course it cannot be called a brigade. This is not worthy of Nanjing, so just call it an assault cluster!" Yang Feng thought for a while and said. He decided to take care of the bald man's face.
"This assault cluster is centered on a heavy tank regiment, with four battalions in each regiment, four companies in each battalion, twenty-two tanks in each company, eight of the battalion headquarters and regiment headquarters, so there will be two hundred tanks." Yang Feng counted there by his fingers.
The jaws of a group of officers next to him almost fell off. What is the concept of two hundred tanks? Not to mention the Nanjing government, even the Japanese army may not have so many.
"How much does that cost?" A regiment commander said weakly. He returned from studying in Germany, but knew that tanks now cost tens of thousands of dollars.
"You don't have to worry about this. I can get a self-operated artillery. Can't I get a tank? Isn't it just a turret?" Yang Feng said indifferently, but hesitated in his heart, where could he quietly make so many T55 or 59 tanks that could still be used? Forget it, let's consider this when I go back.
"In addition! It is very dangerous for tanks to escape from infantry, so it must be equipped with two infantry regiments, each of which is equipped with 100 armored combat vehicles, or it can be called light tanks, and a self-propelled artillery battalion provides long-range fire strikes, a self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery battalion, accompanied by field air defense, and an engineering battalion is responsible for building bridges and paving roads, and a logistics support battalion is responsible for transporting ammunition and oil. Well, it seems that it is almost catching up with a division." Yang Feng said somewhat surprised.
The officers next to them swallowed with difficulty. It was more than just a division. With this level of equipment, it was enough to fight directly from Peking to Nanjing.
Such an armored assault group must be done. What else can be better than this on the North China Plain? And it doesn't cost much. I guess everything is equipped, including the 59 tank, the BMP1 armored vehicle, and then add a batch of 2c3 and self-propelled anti-aircraft guns. These are all combined, and it is estimated that it is more than 100 million US dollars at the top. This is really not a big deal for Yang Feng, who has saved dozens of tons of gold in Switzerland alone.
As for the remaining various transportation vehicles, I can only buy them here. It is really difficult to have a suitable one from Hyundai. You can’t get a bunch of Volvo heavy trucks!
However, it is difficult to deal with people, but it is easy to deal with car drivers. New Oriental has a special driving school. It has trained a lot in the past two years, and there are also tank drivers. There are no different things from self-propelled artillery. There are many people who can fire self-propelled artillery, but there are really no people who know how to fight tanks. Sun Liren doesn't understand these, nor do he understand those American mercenaries. During the war, the US military did not have many tanks, so don't count on blitzkriegs.
"It would be great if I had another military academy, but this would have been too stimulating to the chairman and it would easily make him lose his mind." Yang Feng was talking to himself, and Li Mingde walked in from outside and whispered: "Boss, a batch of the things you want has been made. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
"What?" Yang Feng was stunned for a moment.
"The kind of grenade you want!" Li Mingde said.
Yang Feng suddenly remembered the high-end gifts he prepared for the people of Northeast China, and quickly went to a warehouse with Li Mingde.
"Is this too big?" He looked at the dozen boxes of oversized grenades inside in a daze, picked up one and shouted.
This thing is not like a grenade, but rather an anti-tank grenade.
"If you require the power to reach the level of ordinary grenades, you can only charge more medicine. But don't worry, an ordinary person can definitely throw it more than ten meters away. And according to your requirements, a large number of steel balls are added to it, and the killing radius can reach five meters." A technician from the arsenal next to him said hurriedly.
"It's okay, I'll try it." Yang Feng weighed the black powder grenade in his hand.
"The method of use is the same as that of ordinary wooden grenades. According to your requirements, we print the method of use into an illustration and then paste it on the shell." The technician said, pointing to the shell wrapped in color pictures.
Yang Feng nodded with satisfaction. This is indeed a fool-like operation. It is probably even children under ten years old who can understand it, especially the picture of the Japanese soldiers on the last one, which is too inducible.
The guy walked to the test site outside with a grenade, stood behind the reinforced concrete bunker, pulled the grenade and threw it out with force, and then quickly lay down. He heard a loud bang, and then heard the crackling sound in front of the bunker. He looked up again and saw that the wooden board in front was made into pockmarks by steel balls and fragments.
This effect made Yang Feng very satisfied. Anyway, in his opinion, unless he insisted on dying with the Japanese, or found a place to ambush, he would never dare to throw this thing out. This would ensure that it would not be used by the Japanese. As for the Chinese people in the Northeast, they would dare to resist and would definitely have put life and death aside. I don’t think they would mind this small flaw. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
