While Han Ling and Zhan Ninggong were talking about this at the command center, the bombing on the Japanese local area was still continuing.

The bombing range has begun to shift, but the transfer is not large, it is just moving to the coast!

Since the Japanese learned that China had mobilized land, sea and air forces on a large scale, they have built coastal fortifications in some places they believed that the Chinese troops were most likely to land.

The coast of Kitakyushu is one of them.

And this place has also become a place where heavy bombing brigades frequently bombarded.

Heavy bombing brigades kept taking off and flew here to carry out large bombings.

As the sky gradually became brighter, the Japanese also sent their air force to intercept these heavy bombers.

However, their Nakajima Type 91 fighter jets are really unable to fight against China's Type 28 and Type 29 fighter jets.

The Japanese fighter planes kept falling into the void.

The bombing over the sky did not affect the bombing brigade's bombing, the reason was very simple.

Because the Japanese interception could not affect them at all. Even the Air Force advisor's defense could not be torn apart, how could they fight?

And even if it is torn apart, the Japanese fighter's fighter speed cannot even keep up with the speed of the Type 29 heavy bomber. How can we intercept this?

In the Imperial Palace in the capital of the Japanese.

This morning, the Japanese devil who had just woken up, received a news that shocked him without even eating.

"Nani? What did you say? China launched a raid on Kitakyushu this morning? Now Kitakyushu has been razed to the ground? The coastal fortifications in Kitakyushu have been destroyed? The fire has burned overnight?"

Hearing the news that his emperor uncle, the Chief of Staff of the Army, told him, he widened his eyes in disbelief. [Because the real name cannot appear, sorry!]

"Yes! Your Majesty! China is still carrying out continuous bombing of this area, and the planes we sent cannot intercept their bombers at all. Their fighter performance is really excellent, and the Imperial fighter jets cannot be compared with them!"

The Chief of Staff of the Army and the Emperor of the Japanese were also very depressed.

The Nakajima Type 91 fighter jet is an advanced fighter jet that has only been in service for less than two years, but he has no strength to fight back against the Chinese air force several times. He doesn't know where China got these advanced fighter jets.

"Bastard! Damn Chinese, they actually attacked today!"

The Japanese Emperor was very angry. He had never hated a country like he did today.

It was this country. Three years ago, they had no power to fight back in front of the empire. They bullied it as much as they wanted.

But three years later, the empire's Goryeo Peninsula was also driven out of the mainland because they were lost.

The battleship of the USS Mua, which the empire is proud of, was also sunk in their hands.

Until now, they are constantly bombarded.

The bombing in the middle of 1932 not only caused heavy economic losses to the empire, but also a rare plague broke out in the days after the bombing.

The senior officials of the Japanese all guessed and finally concluded that this great plague was caused by the Chinese.

The most obvious one is that after their great plague broke out, China immediately rushed south to launch a war of unification.

The Japanese at that time were powerless to stop the unification of China, so they could only watch the unification of China.

And now, China bombed them again.

According to the previous updates between Han Ling and Huaxia, the Japanese Emperor knew that this time, Huaxia actually had a dialect to log in to their local area.

This really made the Japanese Emperor very angry.

I originally thought that even if they wanted to fight, they would have to wait until after the New Year. Who knew that today?

On the day of New Year's Day in China, they actually took action.

The Japanese Emperor was furious and frightened.

Now the Japanese's economy is completely collapsed.

It was originally at the height of the economic crisis, and the domestic unemployment rate was already high.

The previous big plague was completely emptying the Japanese economy.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

The Chief of Staff looked at the Japanese Emperor and asked in a deep voice.

"Uncle Emperor! Have your General Staff analyzed what has it?"

The Japanese Emperor looked at the Chief of Staff and said.

"We have not received much information at the moment, but based on the existing information, we concluded that they should be on landing operations today.

But now we don’t have much troops in Kitakyushu, and such a large bombing may cause heavy losses to the defensive forces there.

If they logged in today, we would probably not have much power to fight back!”

The Chief of Staff of the Army was also a little helpless.

China's offense is just abrupt.

They did not expect that China would launch an attack on them in such a snowy day.

"Let the First Division and others rush over to support! They must not cut off the access from Shigaoguan, Kitakyushu to Fukuoka Island. Otherwise, they will easily take Fukuoka Island.

Moreover, the plague that happened some time ago was mainly spreading in Fukuoka Island. Now the defense force is not tight!"

The Japanese Emperor pondered for a moment and decided to let the First Division go.

The First Division, known as one of the seven most powerful divisions, is their ace force.

"yes!"

The Japanese Emperor and the others received news and responded, but it was not possible to react in one or two hours.

Especially the mobilization of troops.

January 1, 1933 at 8:30 am.

It was already completely bright.

But the bombing was not over yet.

Han Ling has assembled so many heavy bombers, and it is definitely not possible to end the bombing in one or two hours.

Assembled so many heavy bombers and prepared so many pilots, the purpose of this was to bomb for a long time.

At this time, in the 19th Army, Zhang Xunchen was constantly looking at the military watches issued by the military headquarters.

"Eight:40! It's about to go!"

Zhang Xunchen looked at the time on his wrist and couldn't help but murmur to himself.

Their army group was the first group to land on the Japanese.

They will officially set off at 9 o'clock, and then, under the escort of heavy cruisers and destroyers, arrive in Kitakyushu after more than three hours of sailing and land in Kitakyushu.

The second batch of landing troops will start at 9:30.

At this time, Kitakyushu, you can no longer see that this place was once a prosperous city.

As a key channel connecting Kyushu Island and Fukuoka Island, Kitakyushu is still very prosperous.

But after a large bombing, the bustling city was completely destroyed.

From the time of the fire at 6 o'clock to now, the fire has been burning for more than two hours.

Until now, the fire is still burning. In this cold winter, Kitakyushu is like a big stove.

There were also scents of meat coming from inside.

People who don’t know think there is a barbecue inside, but people who know are afraid they want to vomit.

Under this situation, teams of Japanese devils wearing shit-yellow military uniforms appeared.

They walked outside Kitakyushu, looking at the blazing fire, and couldn't help but grit their teeth and curse.

Many people knelt down to the burning Kitakyushu.

These Japanese soldiers were all garrisons near Kitakyushu.

They were also the first to come and help after receiving the order.

Their purpose was to build a defensive position outside this ruin and delay the attack of the Chinese troops.

It is good to give reinforcements time to win reinforcements.

After cursing these Japanese soldiers, they were taken to Shifeng Mountain and Baishan by the officers.

Because that is the key to this area.

When Pingyuan Army landed in Kitakyushu, it must have passed here, and the terrain here is also slightly complicated.

It is the only place where Kitakyushu can defend.

The Pingyuan Air Force did not bomb these two places.

Because these two places were bombarded, the trees on these two mountains would definitely burn in this dry winter.

Then there will be another big fire. Although doing so will burn these Japanese devils to death, it will also delay the attack of their own ground troops.

Under such circumstances, at about 9:00 in the morning, the 19th Army began to set off under the command of Zhang Xiuchen.

They took countless landing boats and thought about sailing across the coast.

The escort squadrons that accompany them are naturally the heavy cruiser and destroyer.
