Chapter 766: Battle Plan Air Strike
In the front-line command post of the Northwest Army, a tense and orderly atmosphere permeated every corner. The commander of the 104th Rocket Brigade stood in front of a huge tactical map, his fingers accurately drawn across the lines marking the enemy and our situation, and reported the battle situation in detail to Commander Zheng Zeyu.
"Commander," the brigade commander said confidently, "according to our combat deployment, four rocket units have successfully launched six rounds of special rockets from the predetermined fortress gaps in different directions. The poison gas carried by these rockets has been carefully designed and deployed, and its power far exceeds that of conventional weapons."
He paused for a moment, glanced at everyone present, and continued, "At present, the concentration of poison gas in the Kikuchi 1st to 4th sections of the Kumamoto Fortress has far exceeded our expectations. It is a veritable death zone, and no one can survive such a high concentration of poison gas. Even if the enemy tries to open all the ventilation systems in the fortress, according to our calculations, it will take at least seven days to completely discharge the harmful gas."
The brigade commander showed a grim smile on his face. "During this period of time, as those lives fade away and their remains gradually decay, more complex chemical reactions are likely to occur in the closed space, triggering a new and more catastrophic attack. This will be a double torture for the enemy both psychologically and physically."
Zheng Zeyu listened to the brigade commander's report quietly, with a look of approval in his eyes. He nodded slightly, expressing his recognition of the brigade commander and his troops for completing the mission perfectly. "You did a great job," he said in a deep voice, "dropping poison gas bombs is an indispensable part of our combat plan."
He turned around, facing the tactical map, tapping the areas marked with airstrike routes. "According to the combat order issued by the General Command, our goal is not only to inflict heavy damage to the enemy under the power of poison gas bombs, but also to completely destroy their defense system. The release of poison gas bombs is precisely to paralyze one-third of the defense force of the Kumamoto Fortress and create valuable air strike opportunities for our air force."
Zheng Zeyu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, "In the next operation, the Air Force will take advantage of this window of time to evade the enemy's air defense firepower and carry out precise and effective air strikes on the Kumamoto Fortress."
The commander of the Second Air Division, Luo Er, stood in a corner of the front-line command post, wearing a neat flight suit. He faced everyone and spoke in a loud and confident voice: "Everyone, I want to tell you an exciting news. After the unremitting efforts of the logistics department, forty-eight goblet bombs, twelve "fathers of bombs", twelve "mothers of bombs", and the most shocking six large-yield "grandfathers of bombs", have all been safely transported to the front line."
His words revealed his anticipation and confidence in the upcoming action, and he continued, "Our heavy bomber formation has completed the final preparations. They are like giant dragons ready to go. With just one order, they will be able to pour their destructive power on the enemy. Kumamoto Fortress, a natural barrier once considered insurmountable by the Fuso people, is about to face unprecedented challenges."
Zheng Zeyu smiled coldly upon hearing this. His voice was resounding and full of unquestionable power: "The Fuso people thought that they could stop the advance of our Northwest Army with this fortress. They are totally wrong! This time, we will let them know what the real doomsday is. We will use practical actions to tell them that no matter how strong the fortress is, it will be vulnerable in front of the Chinese army!"
Chief of Staff Gu Chenghai stood beside Zheng Zeyu, his eyes were also sharp. He took over the conversation and analyzed: "Yes, once we successfully capture the Kumamoto Fortress, it means that the door to the Fukuoka area will be open to us. By then, the Fuso Kyushu Corps will no longer have any defenses, and their defenses will fall one after another like dominoes. The fall of Kyushu Island has become an irreversible outcome. This is not only a major victory for our Northwest Army, but also a powerful proof of the entire Chinese military strength!"
Inside the command post, everyone's emotions were ignited by these words. They looked at each other with excitement flashing in their eyes.
They knew that what was coming was not just a battle, but also a feat of rewriting history and defending dignity. At this moment, everyone's hearts were closely connected, looking forward to the arrival of that moment - when the Kumamoto Fortress trembled in the roar, and when the dawn of victory illuminated the sky of Kyushu Island.
At the military airfield of the 2nd Air Division, a busy and orderly scene came into view. Sixty-four Lancaster heavy bombers were neatly lined up on the apron, their huge bodies looking particularly majestic in the sun, and the mounting points under their wings were empty.
The crew members shuttled back and forth between them, carrying out the final inspection and maintenance to ensure that each aircraft could be put into battle in the best condition.
The commander of the 2nd Air Division, Roll, was wearing a flight suit and a flight cap, standing on the control tower, holding a walkie-talkie, and issuing instructions to each crew from time to time. He personally supervised the preparation of the entire formation, not missing a single detail to ensure that everything was foolproof.
At this time, Zheng Zeyu and Chief of Staff Gu Chenghai walked into the airport side by side. Their arrival attracted the attention of the people present. Luo Er immediately put down his work and went forward to greet the two.
After a brief exchange, Zheng Zeyu expressed his desire to see with his own eyes the giant bombs being transported to the front line. Luo Er readily agreed and then led them to the ammunition depot deep inside the airport.
The ammunition depot is located in the heart of the military airport. Its appearance is like a solid fortress, demonstrating its defense power that cannot be ignored. The towering walls are made of heavy stones, covered with moss, revealing the traces of time, but still indestructible. The top of the wall is covered with dense barbed wire, flashing a cold light, as if it can stop all illegal intruders.
The warehouse door is made of fine steel, thick and heavy, with complex locks and alarm devices embedded on the door. Once there is unauthorized approach, the alarm will be triggered immediately, attracting the attention of the guards. On both sides of the door, there are fully armed sentinels standing tall, with sharp eyes, and they patrol the surroundings vigilantly to ensure the safety of this area.
Luo Er led Zheng Zeyu and Gu Chenghai to the warehouse, and along the way he introduced the importance and defense of the ammunition warehouse to the two. "This warehouse not only stores our most advanced weapons and ammunition, but is also one of the core of our entire combat plan." He spoke with a bit of pride.
"In order to ensure the safety of these strategic materials, we have deployed a multi-level defense system, including but not limited to guard dogs, patrols, and hidden snipers. Anyone who wants to enter here needs my warrant."
As Luo Er explained, the three gradually approached the warehouse gate. At this time, a sentry stepped forward quickly, saluted Luo Er, and quickly verified their identities and permissions.
After confirming that everything was correct, the sentry skillfully unlocked the lock, and the heavy iron door slowly opened, revealing the scene inside the warehouse - rows of huge bombs lay there quietly, waiting to be given the mission of destroying the enemy's power.
