Chapter 216 See you in Tokyo (fourth update, please subscribe)

Sometimes, the rise of a giant often starts with an idea, and after the birth of an idea, during the implementation process, it is necessary to Overcome many difficulties.

But what is certain is that forward-thinking ideas can bring huge financial returns.

In the next few months, in order to realize his dream of creating a retail giant, Li Yian recruited top-notch commodity purchasing managers and logistics managers in European and American countries, and even poached people directly from the Pentagon, and then established A logistics system that covers the entire process from purchase to inventory, distribution, delivery, shelving, and sales. Huge warehouses have been built in various countries around the world to store goods purchased in batches at low prices, and then according to each market. Sales are shipped to supermarkets in different locations.

It finally took two full years for it to really spread in European and American countries and quickly grow into a retail giant.

And in August 1945, all this was just beginning. Even in the United States, Hedrick Gerald of the headhunting company was still in Washington, facing interrogation by the military police, explaining how he Poaching corners of the Pentagon.

When Hedrick Gerrard failed to poach the Pentagon for the first time and was arrested by the military police, at the Kirtland Base in Arizona, compared to a few months ago, this This base that specializes in training bomber pilots and bombardiers seems to be much deserted. After all, the war in Europe is over. The tens of thousands of Allied bombers that once flew over Europe day and night have stopped. A large number of bomber crew members have even stopped. As they begin to retire, of course, some crew members will fly B24 bombers to India and then to China - these bombers will take off from airports in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and other places to participate in the bombing of Japan.

The number of B24 bombers flying from the European battlefield was not large, that is, only 5,000. Compared with the more than 10,000 bombers parked at British airports back then, it was simply not worth mentioning.

“Bombs and gasoline no longer need to be transported through the hump route. Bombs shipped from the United States can be transported directly to the Philippines, then to Guangzhou, and then to Wuhan via the Guangdong-Han Railway... We Wuhan has been recaptured, and then it will be transported to Zhejiang via the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway, and then transported north to Northern Jiangsu via the Longhai Railway. By then, thousands of B24s will cover the sky and the sun, which will definitely be enough to drink a pot of Japan! "

At the airport, once again, after completing a day of training, Lukwu and his comrades imagined the scene of bombing Little Japan.

"Kewu, you think we should be able to catch up!"

Li Xiang said suddenly.

"I heard that the 10th Brigade has gone back in the past two days. They will definitely be able to catch up."

The 10th Brigade he mentioned are crew members from China. How many of them are there? They arrived at the base months ago, and now they have completed all training. Tomorrow they will fly 37 B24 bombers back to the country.

“Who knows, according to the US military’s teachings on bombardier training, the minimum training time is 12 weeks.”

"Time is not the most important thing. What is important is the level of bombardiers. According to the minimum level standard of the US military: the number of bombs hit by trainees must reach at least 22% of the total number of bombs dropped. If the target is not met, let alone 12 weeks, it will be 18 weeks. Also normal..."

22%!

It is easy to say, but in fact it is very difficult. The combat training flight requires continuous evasive actions within a 10-mile radius of the intended bombing target, and finally, it must approach the target in a straight and level manner to capture the target's time. No more than 60 seconds. The school taught bombardiers bombing aiming techniques. The bombardier was required to look for ground bombing targets through the bombsight. As the aircraft approaches the target, the pilot hands the aircraft to the bombardier and the Norton bombsight, which is also an aircraft autopilot, steers the aircraft to drop the bombs on the target.

The bombardier must provide the bombsight with the required information: airspeed, wind speed, wind direction, altitude and yaw angle.

And it only takes 60 seconds to complete all this!

Because of this, the ones with the highest elimination rate have never been bombardier pilots, but anti-bombardiers. During the training period of bombardier trainees, about 160 bombs were dropped. Accurate records of hits or misses on targets were kept. The elimination rate is as high as 12%.

"Hey, it's difficult..."

As a bombardier, Sun Zhe sighed and pushed the American flying hat in front of his eyes. He didn't want others to see his expression. Today When he dropped bombs, his hit rate was only 15%. According to this probability, unless he could increase his hit rate to 30% in the following training, he would probably be eliminated.

"You said, why is it so difficult to drop a bomb!"

Just at this moment, a voice came from the distance.

"It's difficult! Why isn't it difficult? If it wasn't difficult, we could have walked for eight years before we had the chance to drop the bomb in Tokyo!"

Although the people who came were wearing American flight jackets, they looked the same as them , are all Chinese, compatriots of the Eighth Battalion. Although they speak the same Chinese language and share the same blood, their armbands are different.

"Captain Du, what are you..."

Lukewu stood up quickly and said.

"We are going back to China tomorrow. The brothers in the team suggested that we get together with you. It is rare for us to train together in the United States. In the future, we may go to Tokyo together to go to the little devil's house. Throwing a bomb on your head, this fate requires a good drink.”

Hearing this, Lukwu smiled.

"Captain Du, that's exactly what I meant. I originally planned to call you in the evening to give the brothers a farewell. Let's buy some wine. You know, our boss is very wealthy and bought it for us. The salary is high..." The words that seemed to be showing off made Du Changjie laugh and say,

"Okay, let's eat at the big house today, and let's not get drunk at night!"


That night, in a large hangar at Kirtland Base, more than 600 pilots, bombardiers and machine gunners were drinking wine wantonly, talking and communicating, They were all drunk that night, and even though they were drunk, each of them's eyes lit up when they mentioned their future tasks.

Tokyo, Tokyo...

The next morning, when the 243 pilots, bombardiers, and machine gunners of the 10th Group boarded eight buses in front of the dormitory, Du Changjie and others all looked back at the sky. Several B24s roared past in the sky.

Now, they are going back to China!

Soon, they will fly back to China from India in B24 bombers, and then participate in the major bombing of Japan.

This road is not far, less than 2000 kilometers.

But they were gone for eight years!

Just as eight buses were about to drive out of the base, someone suddenly pointed out the window and said.

"Captain Du, look...it's Captain Lu and the others."

There was a dark crowd of people on the roadside, all of whom came to see him off. Lukwu, who was standing in the front row, saw the car. When he came, he shouted.

“Salute!”

As everyone saluted, a banner was unfurled.

"See you in Tokyo!"

The five simple words made Du Changjie and others' eyes light up. With excited expressions, they opened the car window and shouted out the window .

“That’s it, we’ll see you in Tokyo!”

“We’ll see you in Tokyo!”

"Captain Du, drop two more bombs for us first! Wait until we pass and then return them to you."

"Not only do you have to pay them back, but you also have to double them. I'm a loan shark here!"

People in the car and people on the roadside, they shouted to each other and talked, tears even wet the eyes of many people, not for parting, but because of the obsession in their hearts!

Everyone has obsessions in their hearts. For the Chinese people who have gone through eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, what is the biggest obsession in their hearts?

It’s not about killing little devils, because we are killing little devils every day!

It's not blood debt repayment with blood.

Because the blood debt can never be repaid.

It is to fight to Japan, to fight to Japan, to show off horses in the streets of Tokyo, and to sleep with Japanese maids under the cherry blossom trees at the foot of Mount Fuji.

It is to return the humiliation and pain that the Japanese inflicted on the Chinese people ten times and a hundred times.

They have been walking this road for eight years, and now they finally see hope.

Not because of the dawn of victory. Because eight years ago, they started this war for national awakening in despair and hope. They fought for eight years in a desperate situation. The only thing that supported them was the unyielding national soul in their hearts and their belief in victory.

No matter how desperate the situation was, they never gave up this belief. Victory is right in front of us now. In fact, victory has been doomed since the beginning of the big counterattack at the beginning of the year.

And now, what they see is another hope - the hope of reaching Japan!

And they will be the vanguard - dropping bombs on the Japanese mainland!

This is just the beginning, the beginning of revenge!

And this summer is destined to be hot, scalding, and full of acquaintances...
