Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, 700,000! I remember the reported amount was 500,000, right? Did Father add some more? Did he count the injured as killed?"

Li Yunlong listened to the radio, pinched peanuts, and shook his head.

After the broadcast ended, Li Yunlong turned on another radio station, which was the Japanese radio station called Sakura City Voice, which was the predecessor of NHK. The later Red and White Song Festival and the TV series "Oshin" were both produced by NHK.

Like the Russians, the Japanese also used the Voice of Sakura City to publicize the Siberian War and also proclaimed their victory.

"...The Imperial Army made a victorious advance in East Siberia, destroying over a thousand Soviet tanks in the Archan region and annihilating over 600,000 Soviet main forces in Baikalsk!"

"...The Empire's brave general, the second generation of the most famous generals, the Empire's youngest division commander, Kota Kotera, led the 171st Division, breaking through the layers of resistance from the Soviet Union's troops and advancing like a broken bamboo, successfully capturing Kurkusk, a key city in the Soviet Union's Western Siberia!"

"Under the heroic command of Kota Kotera, the 171st Division killed one Russian general, two lieutenant generals, and five major generals. It also destroyed the Kurkusk airport and railway station, and destroyed a large amount of Russian supplies!"

"The Mao Bear Army was completely routed..."

"... Due to weather and other factors, our army successfully advanced after annihilating the Soviet Union's forces. General Mei Jingmeijiro, commander of the Kwantung Army, stated that the Imperial Army can completely drive the Soviet Union's forces out of Siberia this year..."

"The people of Siberia can now be enlightened by the locusts and no longer oppressed by the Russian bear..."

"...This battle has produced a number of valiant warriors. After these warriors have perished in battle, their souls will return to their homeland and rest forever in the shrine."

"His Majesty Tianhuang has not forgotten these warriors who fought for the empire. He personally met with the warriors' families and offered them..."

"...The famous general of the Empire, Kodera Kouta, was also promoted to Imperial Major General. Kodera Kouta was born into an ordinary merchant family in Osaka..."

It was similar to the Mao Zedong's broadcast, but the Japanese propaganda about the victory was even more exaggerated. If Li Yunlong hadn't instigated this battle, and if they knew the actual casualties on both sides, they would have believed this group's propaganda. Neither side fared much better, and both exaggerated the victory results by at least three times.

However, what made Li Yunlong feel more relieved was that Kotera Kouta was finally promoted to major general. Li Yunlong did not find it strange that Gastilovich was promoted to general. In the Mao army, as long as you have military achievements, do not oppose the big beard, and have no problems with your background, you can easily be promoted.

But it was different in the Japanese army. Kotaro Kotaro had never attended the Army University, so it was difficult for him to be promoted to major general.

Moreover, compared with Gastilovich, Li Yunlong is more optimistic about Kotaro Kotera. After all, Li Yunlong does not have much leverage over Gastilovich, and it is difficult to completely control him.

But Kodera Yasuta is different. Even if he becomes the Minister of the Army in the future, he will still work hard for Li Yunlong.

Now Kotaro Kotera has been successfully promoted to major general, and has joined the ranks of the Japanese senior commanders. At the same time, he has been awarded the title of the second generation of the famous generals by the Japanese, and his future is bright.

They both have a bright future!

……

Let me explain the monk's current situation. Some people say that the monk will steal peanuts. The monk, Duan Peng is a guard, and Li Yunlong is no longer the regiment commander. He does not need to go to the front line, and they will not lead the troops, so they are just around.

But guards are like insurance, they are necessary but best not to be needed. Once guards are needed, it means the situation is very bad and life and death are at stake.

Moreover, generally the guards have a good relationship with their leaders, and the leaders will not punish the guards for some minor mistakes and be unsympathetic to the guards. Think about Zhang Fei.

Here are three chapters to go. Please give me some free gifts and ask for more chapters. Let’s put it this way: if you get 3,000 requests for more chapters, I will add one chapter. If the accumulated free gifts and tips exceed 100 per day, I will also add one chapter.

Chapter 531 Tupolev Falls into a Trap

On February 3, a transport plane landed at an airport at a mine in Outer Mongolia.

Li Yunlong hurriedly got off the plane.

Zhang Dabiao was already waiting at the airport. When he saw Li Yunlong, he immediately went to meet him.

"Caught it?"

"We caught them before they got far. If we hadn't found them in time, they would have frozen to death outside."

As Zhang Dabiao spoke, he took Li Yunlong towards the cave.

Li Yunlong received a telegram last night saying that four Russian scientific researchers attempted to escape but were caught by Zhang Dabiao's men.

"Tell me how they escaped?"

"After finishing work that night, these four people said they were about to finish a set of data and needed to stay in the lab for a while longer. Our soldiers didn't pay much attention to it, as they often work overtime. After sending the others back, one person stayed behind to keep an eye on them."

"Then these four men ambushed our fighters, snatched their weapons and ran away."

"Our soldiers immediately gave chase after them after discovering them and caught them before they had gone far."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong looked at the surrounding environment and felt that this place was indeed not suitable as the location of the research institute.

"How's the data calculation going?"

"Part of it has been completed, and part of it is not yet completed."

"Get ready to move! Since they like running, let's leave them with nowhere to run!"

At this moment, Li Yunlong had a number of heavy bombers in his hands, which could carry out large-scale personnel transfers.

Originally, this place was chosen as a research base for its convenience, but it could become a battlefield in the future, and it's not far from Siberia. If the news leaks accidentally, or if one or two people escape, they could escape.

"Commander, after the move, can I go to the front line?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Come back after they've finished their calculations!"

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he walked into Zhang Dabiao's office.

At this time, there were several bags on Zhang Dabiao's table.

"It contains some food, which are leftovers from these people's daily lives, as well as some data, which are the results of their calculations."

Li Yunlong glanced at the things on the table and smiled: "It seems that they are well prepared. Not only have they prepared everything for escape, but they also plan to take away our research results."

"Commander, should we shoot them?"

"Bring them here so I can see them!"

"Yes!"

Ever since discovering Korolev, Li Yunlong's intuition told him that there must be some powerful figures among these Russian scientists.

He looked through the list twice but found nothing.

Soon, four dejected bears were brought into the room.

When they saw Li Yunlong, they just looked up and then lowered their heads again.

But the moment he looked up, Li Yunlong felt that one of them looked very familiar.

He quickly recalled in his mind, and soon, a person appeared in his memory.

"Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev?"

Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev

Li Yunlong looked at the person standing in the middle and suddenly spoke.

Tupolev was a little flustered when Li Yunlong suddenly called out his name, and put his hands together nervously.

"Zhang Dabiao, what was his name when he registered?"

"Lovka Kaski."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong walked up to Tupolev and said, "Okay, stop pretending. I know you. These people are members of your design bureau, right?"

When Tupolev heard Li Yunlong's words, he suddenly raised his head. He obviously didn't expect Li Yunlong to know so much, including his name and the design bureau. There was no point in pretending anymore.

"you know me?"

"Of course, everyone knows the famous Tupolev. Even when you were in prison, your loving father let you design airplanes in prison!"

Li Yunlong looked at Tupolev carefully. The 55-year-old Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev was already a little old man at this time, with sparse and completely white hair.

He wore round-framed myopic glasses, but his eyes were very bright. He was wearing a leather coat and was not tall, only about 1.7 meters.

Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev was a renowned Russian aircraft designer. In 1937, someone reported him as a member of the "Russian Fascist Party" and allegedly leaked military secrets to the German Third Reich, resulting in the German Third Reich's Bf-110 heavy fighter stealing the fruits of the Soviet aviation industry.

These were all trumped-up charges, but some people believed them at the time. In reality, the ANT-25 aircraft had malfunctioned and failed to complete its mission, and Levanevsky blamed Tupolev. So, after the Great Purge began, Levanevsky reported Tupolev as a spy, leading to his arrest.

But gold shines wherever it is. In prison, Tupolev insisted on aircraft design and even designed the Tu-2 bomber in prison.

After seeing Tupolev's abilities, his father ordered him to continue designing aircraft, but he was still imprisoned in a Siberian prison.

The most famous aircraft designed by Tupolev is the famous Tu-160, also known as the "White Swan" ace strategic bomber.

Figure 160, White Swan

It has a maximum take-off weight of 275 tons, a maximum speed of Mach 2.05, a maximum internal bomb load of 45 tons, and a variable swept wing design with an elegant appearance, so it is called the "White Swan". It has powerful penetration and strategic strike capabilities.

This bomber, which entered service in the 20s, was the main bomber of Russia until Li Yunlong came to this era. Its status among Russia's bombers was similar to that of our Sixth Master.

In addition, there is the Tu-16, which is the first practical jet medium-range bomber of the Russian Federation.

Tu-95 is the only large four-engine turboprop strategic bomber in service in the world. It uses a unique power system that combines propellers and jet engines. It has a low flight speed but an extremely long range, reaching tens of thousands of kilometers. It also has a large payload and can carry nuclear bombs.

Although the Tu-95 may seem nothing special to later generations, it has been in service since 1956, which is quite terrifying. Only the American B-52 can compete with it.

Li Yunlong knew Tupolev, and he was also the person Li Yunlong focused on. Among the rescued engineers, there were many named Tupolev, after all, this name was very common in the Russians, but none of them matched the name.

So Li Yunlong stopped paying attention to him. He didn't expect that this old man actually used a pseudonym.

"I don't know what you're going to do, but I won't work for you."

After his identity was exposed, Tupolev simply stopped pretending and came clean.

"Really? What a pity! I had some great ideas and needed help, but it looks like there's no chance!"

As Li Yunlong spoke, he quickly took out a pen and paper and began to draw: "Why do airplanes have to use propeller engines?"

"Jet engine, easy!"

"Yes, intake compression is indeed simple, but if we use internal and external bypass, can we increase the speed..."

Thanks to the great master for the great light, forget it, a great master will add one chapter, the gift king will add five chapters, who made me poor...

Chapter 532 The crumbs of the world

Tupolev was obviously moved when he heard Li Yunlong talk about the principles of jet engines.

After Li Yunlong finished drawing a simple sketch, he threw it to Tupolev: "If you're interested, you can continue to study it yourself. Oh, and I also have some experience in aerodynamics."
