Chapter 296 Birth and Destruction (Third update, please subscribe)
Glider after glider was dragged into the air and swayed from time to time. Transport planes and gliders taking off from the airport soon filled the night sky. The red and green night navigation lights flashed on and off.
Sitting on the canvas seat, the airborne soldier stared out from the hatch, because there were planes everywhere in the sky, and he could barely see the sky. In the seemingly endless sky, there is almost no extra space to accommodate more aircraft.
"Four hours, four hours..."
Four hours later, they will arrive in Batavia. Perhaps because of some nervousness, Wang Zhihao touched the quilt next to him. The STG44 stuck on the side of the leg, although they were trained by the German airborne troops, they fully learned the lessons of the German airborne troops - the main weapon of the airborne troops must be carried with them to avoid separation of man and weapon. Several airborne operations by the Germans, This is what everyone suffers from.
The cabin was quiet. All the commandos, whether they could sleep or not, had their eyes closed and were recharging their energy there.
No one knows what will happen in four hours.
However, they will definitely go all out.
The flight of more than 800 kilometers requires four hours of flying. When the fleet arrived at the airport on the outskirts of Batavia, it was already around four in the morning and the sky was about to light up.
Although Japan has announced its surrender, at the airport, the Japanese soldiers guarding the airport are still on duty as usual.
Oshima, who had just changed guard with the previous shift, lit a cigarette.
“I can finally go home. I don’t know how Mihui and the others are doing...”
While Oshima was smoking, he vaguely heard the sound coming from the air. , when he looked up into the sky, he saw a black shadow passing in the sky.
"It's a bird..."
Some vague black shadows quietly fell from the sky and flew in his direction, and then Odao saw something that he would never forget. One scene - the black figure made a huge impact when it touched the ground. When it slid across the airport runway, his wings crashed into a plane next to it, and then it slid for dozens of meters before it really stopped. At the same time, a dozen more black shadows fell from the sky to the ground.
After the first glider made an emergency landing at the airport, Oshima picked up the Type 99 rifle. Before he could react, he heard someone shouting loudly.
“We are the Allies, and we came here to surrender under the orders of the Allied Command!”
The Allies?
How did the Allies come so quickly?
Then a group of figures jumped out of the glider. When the enemy rushed towards them, looking at the wolf-like enemies on the big island on duty, what they thought of was not resistance.
Instead, he immediately dropped his weapon and knelt down on the ground.
Finally I can go home!
When he was overwhelmed, Oshima couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Thanks to the precise landing of the glider pilots, more than 500 airborne troops successfully landed at the airport in just a few minutes. After completing the airborne landing, they immediately rushed towards the dormitory next to the airport. go.
More than a thousand Japanese Army Air Force officers and soldiers are stationed in the airport dormitories. In the past few years, Batavia Airport has been the most important base of the Japanese army in the Dutch East Indies. The aircraft alone There are hundreds of them.
When the glider silently approached the airport from three directions, although most of the Japanese soldiers were asleep, the dull and violent sound of the glider hitting the ground soon alerted those Japanese soldiers. They all took up arms.
The gunfire immediately broke the calm of the airport. However, the battle only lasted for a minute or two. A low-flying C47 in the sky ended the Japanese resistance with a broadcast.
“We are the surrender advance team of the Allied Forces Command. We are stationed in Batavia according to the orders of the Allied Forces Command. We now order you to obey the order and wait on the spot to be disarmed...”
Then the low-flying C47 played the so-called "Emperor's Royal Sound" over and over again. The Japanese soldiers who had been resisting desperately were suddenly stunned when they heard the sound coming from the air.
Surrendered...
The battle was defeated.
What else is there to fight for?
It must be said that Little Japan's obedience is still very strong. After learning that the Allied forces appeared at the airport, the airport commander immediately ordered the troops to lift their combat readiness.
"The commander-in-chief has issued an order, and all of us must surrender to the Allied forces!"
There was no fighting, almost no resistance, and only two people were injured during the landing.
More than a thousand Japanese soldiers at the Batavia Airport surrendered. Then, the airport's runway lights came on, and with the roar of their engines, huge six-engine transport planes slowly landed at the airport.
More and more commandos and vehicles poured into the airport. At about 7 a.m., after the last tank drove out from the Me323 "Giant" transport plane, Wang Zhihao, who was sitting on the jeep, glanced at the people behind him. In the convoy, except for a few jeeps and tanks, the brothers mainly traveled in captured cars, said.
“Now…let’s go to town!” What does it take to build a country?
It takes will, patience...it takes means.
In the early morning, Sugaruo sat up from the sofa. Today, he will declare the country's independence. From today on, he will no longer be a puppet of the Japanese, but the head of state.
Taking a deep breath and looking at the sky outside the window, Sugaruo said to himself.
"The weather is very good today!"
At this moment, the door opened and the leading young man said.
"Sir, now is the time, have you thought about it?"
"Yes."
Nodding, Sugaruo looked at the leading young man and said.
“Yes, just as you said, now is the time to take back our own country!”
At this moment, Hada came, the agent supported in Japan Among them, he came in second place. Yesterday, he originally wanted to use independence as an excuse to drive Sukaruo away, but he never thought that this guy actually launched a "positive change."
"Mr. Hada, look, people are gathered here. They are looking forward to our country being free. Now, it is time for us to join hands together."
Walking in front of Hada, Sugaruo held his hand and looked quite proud. This was a fait accompli. Whether Hada and the others were willing or not, they had to accept one thing - independence was coming, and it was Sugaruo who took the lead. of.
Although Hada was holding back a ball of anger in his heart, it was aimed at the established fact. All he could do was force a smile and say,
“Yes, now is the time for us to work together to lead our country to freedom...”
Only Hada himself can I feel the mixed emotions in my heart at this time, how could this be? This was not the original plan.
Originally, this guy should have been kicked off the stage.
But... there is no choice now.
Now, hundreds of young people have gathered outside Sugaruo's home, including many reporters who had learned the news early.
Java is going to be independent!
Just last night, a water pipe was erected in Sukaro's yard to serve as a flagpole, now is the time!
When Sugaruo walked out of the house and stood in the corridor, there was cheering all around. Not to mention, the noise caused by hundreds of people was really quite big. He cleared his throat and, in front of the crowd, Suharto said loudly in anticipation.
"Compatriots, my dearest compatriots, we, the people of Java, hereby declare the independence of Java. Matters such as the transfer of power will be carried out in an orderly manner in the shortest possible time. In the name of the people of Java..."
No Wrong, the so-called Declaration of Independence is just a few sentences, simple and concise, or without any literary grace. It has neither history nor future. It only has one sentence: We are going to be independent, and you can hand it over.
There were cheers all around. In the cheers, people came to the temporarily erected flagpole, just as they sang the national anthem accurately and raised the flag.
Suddenly, the roar of airplanes was heard in the sky, and a C47 hovering at low altitude broke into the celebration scene.
“Attention all citizens, the Allied forces have now entered the city. Everyone must remain calm and refrain from any unfriendly behavior against the Allied forces. The Allied forces are here to liberate you... ”
The news from the air made everyone dumbfounded. Those who raised the flag correctly even looked at the flag in their hands in confusion.
To be promoted or not to be promoted now!
To be precise, there is only one question left in their hearts now: Should this country be built or not?
Independent?
Now history has kicked the choice to these people, these people who were there a minute ago cheering for the birth of the country.
Now I'm just standing here like a fool...
