Chapter 494: Fuso's Air Raid Plan
In the southern government, panic was spreading rapidly across the northern part of the bay like an invisible black wave. The impact of this emotion was so great that almost everyone felt unable to breathe.
At the same time, Chen Tong had organized a large number of elite troops and quickly rushed towards Wanxi City.
In the president's office in the South Country Government Affairs Center Building in Bay North, Huang Guangtai's face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were filled with fear and powerlessness.
He lay on the bed, his body seemed to be wrapped in fear and pain, unable to move.
He picked up the phone tremblingly and dialed the number of Matsui Iwane, commander-in-chief of the Fuso Bay Island Corps.
The moment the call was connected, he seemed to have grasped the last straw, and his voice was a little anxious and pleading: "Hello, is this General Matsui? I believe you are already aware of the current situation of your 18th Division. After the 18th Division is destroyed, the Chinese army will be able to march to the city unimpeded and take Wanxi City directly. If Wanxi is lost, China will have a firm foothold. The end of the Southern Government is only a matter of time. General Matsui should understand the principle of lips and teeth being cold. I hope you can send reinforcements as soon as possible to help us stabilize the situation in the Wanxi area."
On the other end of the phone, Matsui Iwane's expression was extremely gloomy. His eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the other two Class A divisions under my command have already rushed to Wanxi. Our Fuso warriors must not sacrifice in vain. I will make the Chinese army pay the price!"
After hanging up the phone, Huang Guangtai seemed to have lost all his strength.
He coughed violently, the sound was sharp and piercing, as if he was coughing out all the air in his lungs. His face became even paler, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He knew that he had no way out, and could only hope that Matsui Iwane's reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible.
Huang Guangtai's second son Huang Changfeng sat beside the bed with a gloomy face. He gently patted his father's back, trying to comfort the old man who seemed increasingly weak due to the continuous blows.
There was a flash of dissatisfaction and anger in Huang Changfeng's eyes, and his voice was filled with a bit of complaint and unwillingness.
"These Japanese devils are more arrogant than each other, and always think they are invincible." Huang Changfeng's mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm, "They keep mocking our disastrous defeat at the hands of the northern bandits, as if they can bring victory news as soon as they take action."
His words were full of dissatisfaction and disappointment with the Fuso people. Thinking of the Fuso troops who once vowed to turn the situation around for them, but now they were wiped out without even seeing the northern bandit troops, Huang Changfeng's anger and disappointment burned like a flame.
Huang Guangtai sighed helplessly when he heard his son's words.
His eyes revealed deep fatigue and helplessness, as if he had already seen the catastrophic disaster that the Southern Government was about to face.
"Now, the northern bandits are coming with great force, and their offensive is unstoppable." Huang Guangtai's voice was low and hoarse, "We are already on the edge of the cliff. If we are not careful, we will be doomed and shattered to pieces."
There was a tremor and despair in his voice, as if he was telling fate about their helplessness and powerlessness. He knew that they had no other choice but to rely on the Fuso people to help them through this crisis.
"Who else can we rely on except the Japanese?" Huang Guangtai's words revealed deep helplessness and despair. He seemed to be compromising with fate, and also seemed to be conveying an unspeakable sorrow to his son.
In the Fuso Bay Island Corps headquarters in Wannan, Matsui Iwane sat at his desk, his eyes fixed on the head of the intelligence agency, Sanjiangyuan, listening to his important report on the logistics supply warehouse of the Chinese army.
Sanjiangyuan described in detail the intelligence that the intelligence personnel had gathered: "Commander, our intelligence network has successfully penetrated the rear of the Chinese army. Their logistics supply warehouse is located in Jiuhua Town, 15 kilometers west of Changxiong Port. Every day, China's transport fleet will transport a large amount of materials and equipment from the mainland to ensure the supply of the front line."
He paused and continued, "As long as we can launch an accurate airstrike and blow up this supply warehouse, it will deal a huge blow to the Chinese army, and this may be the key to our turning the tide of the war."
Matsui Iwane's fingers tapped the tabletop lightly, making a rhythmic sound. He nodded slightly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes: "Well done, Sanjiangyuan. Our Fuso warriors cannot sacrifice in vain. We must make China pay for what they have done!"
Then, Matsui Iwane asked another key question: "Have you found out how the Chinese side destroyed our 18th Division?"
Upon hearing this, Sanjiangyuan frowned and shook his head, saying, "We currently have no definite evidence to confirm what method they used. But according to the photos and intelligence analysis sent back from the scene, it is very likely that self-propelled artillery similar to high-explosive rockets carried out large-scale carpet fire coverage to achieve long-range strikes and directly destroy our 18th Division."
Matsui Iwane's eyes became even colder: "Keep investigating! We must find out how they did all this. Only by mastering the key information can we formulate more effective countermeasures to deal with it."
Sanjiangyuan immediately replied: "Yes, Commander! I will continue to strengthen the collection and analysis of intelligence and strive to find out the truth as soon as possible."
"Notify Fujiwara of the air force to prepare for an air strike. This time, you must achieve significant results! I want to see China's logistics warehouses reduced to ruins under the bombing of the Fuso Empire's aircraft! I want to completely destroy their supply lines!"
"Understood, Commander! The Air Force has obtained the specific coordinates of the Chinese logistics supply warehouse and will officially launch an airstrike tonight!"
The Fuso Air Force stationed in the Bay Island is Fuso's Kamikaze Air Force, which has a total of about 160 people and more than 120 professional pilots. The Kamikaze Air Force has a total of fighters and bombers.
Since Fuso's air force has only entered a period of rapid development in recent years, their strength is not that strong.
On the contrary, the naval fleet possessed a large number of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft of all types. Unfortunately, the Fuso fleet stationed in Liuwan had only one light aircraft carrier, the Fengxiang, which was sunk before it could play a role in the naval battle. Their small number of carrier-based aircraft sank into the Liuwan Strait under the siege of the South China Sea Fleet's carrier-based aircraft.
The Kamikaze Air Force has a total of 60 Zero fighters, 60 Nakajima Type 1 "Falcon" fighters, and 40 AR Lightning fighters purchased from the Bird Empire. The 120 bombers are divided into two bomber squadrons, with 80 Comet dive bombers independently developed by Fuso Mitsubishi Aircraft Manufacturing Factory and Goshawk heavy bombers imported from the Bird Empire.
