286 Incendiary! Burn it!
Burn bomb, burn it!
On the cloudless sea, the Japanese mixed fleet headed by the battleship Fusang was shaking waves and heading towards Qingdao. []
As the highest commander of the entire mixed fleet, Major General Kinda was standing at the bow of the battleship, facing the sea breeze, looking forward. As for the subordinates standing behind Major Kinda, they looked with compliments and didn't know what they were saying, directly causing Major General Kinda to have a strong proud expression on his face.

At this moment, a communications consultant rushed to the bow of the ship and lit up the telegram in his hand and reported to Major General Jinda.
"His Excellency Commander, according to the latest reports of the captains of each destroyer, we have not found any signs of submarine activity around our mixed fleet so far..."
As soon as the communications officer finished speaking, Colonel Guyi, the captain of the battleship Fusang battleship, said with a compliment: "Commander, I guess: the cowardly Chinese naval fleet must be afraid of the strength of my mixed fleet and dare not come to die."
Major General Jinda, who had a proud look on his face, nodded with consent and agreed: "Yoxi, Gu Yijun, I think this is very possible. Faced with the strict attack formation of my mixed fleet, the Chinese submarine force will not be able to escape the hunting of the six destroyers of my mixed fleet as long as it arrives. The cowardly Chinese must be afraid..." "Please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
Speaking of this, a strong bloodthirsty gaze suddenly flashed through Major General Jinda's eyes. He continued to say with anticipation to Colonel Gu Yi and others: "Everyone, since that's the case, then let the cowardly Chinese people taste the real combat power of my Imperial Japanese Navy in the next battle. Of course, we must also use the blood of the Chinese to wash away the shame that our Imperial ** team had suffered many times in front of the Ninth Army..."
"Hayi... Commander, wise..." The subordinates responded in unison.
Major General Jinda, who was praised by everyone again, looked at the huge fleet behind him, and ordered with an excited expression, with a bold face: "Everyone, let us work together to advance at full speed for the future of the Great Japanese Empire... Target, China Qingdao Military Port..."
At the same time, to the southwest of the fleet, two thousand meters above the Japanese mixed fleet, were less than 20 kilometers away from the Japanese mixed fleet. More than a dozen black spots in the sagittal division were quickly rushed to the direction where the Japanese mixed fleet was located at an extremely high speed, under the guidance of the Aviation Division Reconnaissance Squadron.
Time passed by minute by minute, and after more than a dozen black dots, after more than ten minutes of flight, they finally slowly appeared in the sky southwest of the Japanese mixed fleet.
Whether it is the Japanese Navy mixed fleet or the first squadron under the bomber brigade, the two armies are specifically responsible for searching for enemy situations, and they discover each other almost at the same time. Facing the enemy who is rushing toward one's side, they subconsciously exclaimed: "Sir. Enemy attack..."
“Woooooooooooo….”
Although all the officers and soldiers of the Japanese mixed fleet were very arrogant, they, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, did have the capital to be arrogant. The lookout hand sent out a "enemy attack" signal in less than two seconds. A sharp alarm began to echo over the fleet.
At the same time, the naval officers and soldiers who were just resting in various places in the ship were as if they were given a shot of stimulant in an instant. They rushed towards their own combat post with anticipation, waiting for the enemy to come.
As the formation of 12 bombers finally appeared clearly in the vision of Major General Kinda and others under the expectations of all the Japanese. Then, in the flying squad, they began to hover around the entire fleet, looking for the most favorable attack opportunity.
Looking at the twelve bombers hovering back and forth above my head, when I saw the fleet with giant cannons and thick protective armor behind me, a hint of sneer quickly appeared on Major General Jinda's face, and he asked to himself: "The Chinese bomber, are the timid Chinese people planning to use bombers to block the front of my mixed fleet from the air..."
The captain of the USS Fusang battleship, who was also exposed to the example of the Air Force fighting against the Navy for the first time, followed closely and shouted with a arrogant look: "Commander, the cowardly Chinese people look down on our Japanese Empire naval ships too much. Do they think that just the dozens of kilograms of air bombs dropped by bombers can destroy our ships?"
And at this moment, a colonel officer obviously had little relationship with Colonel Guyi keenly discovered that there was a problem in Colonel Guyi's words. He asked back: "Guyijun, why are you so sure: Chinese bombers will definitely use small aviation bombs instead of heavy aviation bombs..."
"Small aviation bombs do not blow through the solid deck of our ship. However, a heavy aviation bomb with a weight of 200 attacks can only blow through a large hole in the deck of our ship. In addition, if this bomb is not a coincidence, it just falls on the deck above the ammunition depot. The entire warship may be buried under the sea because of this bomb..."
Colonel Gu Yi is not a vegetarian. Faced with the blows of his political enemies, he fought back without being outdone and said: "Tanyejun, you don't understand this: As far as I know, the hit rate of bombers on land is very low. What's more, on the sea, if you want to hit the warships we are constantly moving..."
"The timid Chinese bombers have only one way to accurately hit our fleet ships with limited aviation bombs: increase the number of aviation bombs. The Chinese have a total of 12 bombers with a total of so many bombs. Do you think the Chinese will choose to increase the number of aviation bombs or carry a heavy aviation bomb with greater power..."
Colonel Tanye was immediately speechless when asked. However, he was not a person willing to admit defeat. In front of the commander Major General Kinda, he still spoke stubbornly: "Ku Yijun, we are not the Chinese commander, and it is impossible for us to know the specific ideas of the Chinese commander. Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Chinese people use bombs?"
Seeing the gunpowder smell between the two subordinates getting stronger and stronger, Commander Major General Jinda had to speak and remind him: "It's enough, don't fight anymore. No matter what type of aviation bomb the Chinese bomber carries, as long as the entire fleet is protected, the Chinese Air Force will not do anything to us..."
"Now I order: First, all ships, clean the deck immediately. Prevent the ammunition accumulated on the deck from being detonated by enemy aviation bombs. It causes irreparable losses..."
"Second, all ships. From now on, avoid the line in the shape of an ‘s’, and avoid bombing from the Chinese Air Force as much as possible..."
"Third, all ships are ready for combat. Once Chinese bombers enter range, fire their guns immediately and shoot them down. In any case, Chinese bombers cannot be allowed to bomb at low altitude..."
After a burst of orders, the huge mixed fleet began to operate in an orderly manner like a huge war machine.
At this moment, 12 "H-1" bombers under the First Bomber Squadron had already appeared above the Japanese mixed fleet.
Looking at the Japanese Navy, which was rapidly changing formations on the sea, a sneer suddenly flashed across the squadron leader's face. Through the radio intercom, he ordered loudly: "Brothers, the Japanese are at our feet. Next, it is the best time for everyone to use what they have learned to clean up the Japanese Navy fleet and avenge the Japanese."
"Now I order: each team, according to the scheduled plan, launch an attack immediately..."
The order was issued. A huge engine roar suddenly rang in the air.
The 12 bombers were like 12 wild wolves that smelled blood. They quickly rushed towards their targets.
Of course, the Japanese navy located on the deck of the ship was not a vegetarian. Facing the Chinese bombers whistling by and quickly dived towards them, the Japanese naval officers and soldiers changed their faces because of this. However, they did not forget their responsibilities and did not feel afraid. Under the orders of their respective commanders, they quickly adjusted the anti-aircraft gun muzzles and aimed at the bombers that were getting closer and closer to the warship...
Five thousand meters…Three thousand meters…
Looking at the Chinese bombers getting closer and closer to the ship, the anti-aircraft gun commanders of each ship quickly pulled out their command knife, raised their hands high, and shouted loudly at their subordinates in front of them: "The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, next is when we counterattack. Now I order all anti-aircraft guns, firing..."
When a beautiful sword was chopped out from the Japanese commander, a series of dull roars rang out directly on the ship's deck.
More than 20 anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns under the mixed fleet quickly spewed out hot shells towards the sky.
The shells exploded, and black fireworks quickly bloomed over the fleet. However, what made all the Japanese gunners feel regretful: in the face of the counterattack of the anti-aircraft guns in their hands, the 12 bombers were directly as if they had been negotiated. The ship's deck anti-aircraft guns had just opened fire, and the 12 bombers rolled back one after another, quickly getting rid of the Japanese anti-aircraft gun shells.
It turned out that this attack was just a feint launched by the first squadron. The ultimate purpose of this feint attack was to expose the limited air defense firepower on the deck, so that the bomber brigade could understand the air defense strength of its opponent...
After the 12 bombers flew out of the range of Japanese air defense artillery, they reported quickly and quickly summarized them through radio to the squadron leader of the first squadron.
After a brief contemplation, the squadron leader of the first squadron, decisively ordered to the wireless telephone at his mouth: "Four air defense guns in battleships, three cruisers, and only two destroyers... Since that's the case, brothers, let's start with the Japanese destroyers and destroy all the air defense firepower on the destroyer..."
"Order: Two bombers form a combat team, the single bomber is responsible for attracting Japanese air defense firepower, and the double bomber is responsible for waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack, first destroying the Japanese destroyer's anti-aircraft artillery. Start time from now, and start an attack immediately after half a minute."
When 12 bombers, two in groups, rushed to their combat positions.
On the battleship Fusang, more than a dozen officers from all over the world celebrated each other because the fleet successfully defeated the first round of air strikes in the Chinese Air Force.
Commander Major General Kimeto stood among the crowd with a arrogant look on his face, feeling the compliments and flattery of his subordinates. The sound of anti-aircraft guns that had just stopped sounded again on the battlefield.
Six bombers specially used to attract Japanese ships to air defense firepower shuttle back and forth among shells. They were like rabbits fleeing in the panic, attracting Japanese ship decks, constantly giving out sarcastic smiles.
Major General Jinda and others who had been transferred to the command cabin of the battleship, saw the artillery fire and fled in panic. Several bombers that could not break through the fleet's air defense fire network also kept making waves of laughter.
Just when more than a dozen naval officers of the Japanese mixed fleet admired the air combat on the head with a confident face and thought that it would not take long. The fleet's anti-aircraft artillery fire could successfully repel the Chinese Air Force. An accident happened.
The remaining six bombers that had been cruising around the fleet, and saw the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery that had been completely attracted by their teammates. Without any hesitation, the horsepower of the aircraft engine was directly increased to the maximum.
With the extremely high speed of the bomber, he rushed from the dead corner of the Japanese air defense to the sky at lightning speed.
One second, two seconds... Facing the six bombers who suddenly joined the battlefield, facing the six bombers in the air. The Japanese air defense forces, who were having fun, had not had time to react. A black bomb fell from the bomber cabin that suddenly appeared above his head.
Looking at the bomber whizzing through the air, seeing several aviation bombs flying towards the deck above the head. A desperate scream directly yelled from the commander of the Japanese air defense force: "No, the enemy has dropped bombs. Hurry, order the ship to avoid it immediately and hide..."
However, in such a short time, it is almost impossible to let the warship avoid bombs from the head. The huge ship's hull still continues to move forward according to inertia. Two whizzing incendiary bombs have accurately hit the deck of the warship.
"Boom..." Two explosions sounded on the deck, and hundreds of kilograms of fuel carried by the incendiary bombs scattered out directly, covering all the dozens of meters around the blasting point. Of course, the location of the two anti-aircraft guns of the destroyer was located. Unfortunately, it happened to be within the coverage of the incendiary bombs.
There was no violent explosion as imagined, nor did the huge fireballs of imagination soared from the deck. The Japanese army, located within the range of two aviation bombs, thought they were lucky. When they encountered the enemy dud, a piece of orange-red flame spread rapidly around the surroundings with the blasting point as the center.
The Japanese soldiers who had just felt some sticky objects splashing on them, had not yet reacted from surprise and confusion, and a burst of heat came quickly towards them.
The sticky substances stained on the body ignited an orange-red flame in just a blink of an eye.
The Japanese devils who were lit by sticky objects were beaten with their hands or rolling back and forth on the deck... using all kinds of means to try to put out the fire on their bodies. However, what disappointed them was that all their actions, without exception, were useless.
Especially after watching the colleagues around the bounce point, they kept wailing under the blazing fire, and finally burned to ashes. The Japanese devils who only came into contact with a little sticky substance finally felt scared. With the stars and flames on their bodies, regardless of the obstruction of their superiors, they quickly jumped into the sea like dumplings.
Jumping into the sea, the lives of these Japanese devils were undoubtedly saved. However, more Japanese devils within the coverage of the incendiary bombs were still burned to death on the battlefield.
Of course, this is not what scares the Japanese troops in the remaining warships the most.
The surrounding area of the air defense position was quickly ignited by incendiary bombs. The first idea of the Japanese naval officers and soldiers who were exposed to the incendiary bombs was to use sea water to quickly extinguish the fire. However, what surprised the remaining Japanese was that a large amount of sea water sprayed into the sea of fire, as soon as they approached the sea of fire, was burned into water vapor and quickly spread out.
It is impossible to put out these big fires in a short time. What the remaining Japanese officers and soldiers can do is to control the fire as much as possible and wait for the big fire to be extinguished by itself.
However, the next scene directly shocked every Japanese officer and soldier remaining on the deck.
The high temperature generated by the sudden combustion of the incendiary bomb was burned red in less than half a minute. Although it was not clear that such a high temperature was impossible to melt the barrel directly. However, the Japanese gunner knew very clearly. Judging from the completely burned anti-aircraft gun barrel in front of him, these two anti-aircraft guns must have been scrapped.
Even the high-temperature-resistant gun barrel may be burned, not to mention the warship deck...
Less than a minute after the raging fire ignited, a Japanese officer rushed over from the warship cabin and said in a panic look at the captain and others.
"Captain, something happened...the deck, the deck of the warship was melted...a large amount of molten iron is constantly seeping into the cabins under the deck...I worry that these fires will spread into the cabins under the deck..."
"What, the deck has been melted... How is it possible?" Captain Major asked in horror.
Then, seeing his subordinates who were all stunned like him, shouting loudly: "Bastard, why are you still standing there... Once the fire spreads into the cabin, the entire warship will be buried in the sea of fire.... He ordered all the remaining personnel of the warship to start extinguishing the fire at all costs. Quickly, you must not let the fire spread to the bottom cabin..."
With the concerted efforts of hundreds of Japanese soldiers, the fire spreading across the bow of the deck was finally controlled. As the fuel was exhausted, the raging fire began to slowly extinguish.
