After Inukai Jiro took office, the first stop on his inspection tour was the Cauchangmon Arsenal.
As for the blockade of Purple Mountain, Inukaijiro was not so enthusiastic. The captain of the 108th Infantry Regiment, Miyata Jiro, called twice, urging Inukaijiro to take over the blockade of Purple Mountain, but he still did not do so. Goujiro refused on the grounds that the military police force had not yet been replenished.
Gou Yangjiro had already dealt with the Dameishan Independent Regiment many times in Pucheng. The last time the 10th Division swept Dameishan, Gou Yangjiro led the Pucheng Military Police to participate in the battle on the spot. The final result was a disastrous defeat, so Gou Yangjiro Yojiro knows better than anyone how difficult the Spike Force is, so he will never take the initiative to take over this hot potato.
For this reason, Inukaijiro deliberately chose the Caochangmen Arsenal as the first stop of his inspection.
At this point, even when Nishio Juzo and Kawabe Masami asked, Inukaijiro also had something to say, because the Caochangmen arsenal contained half of the arms used to ensure the second sweep of Dameishan. If the Caochangmen arms If there was a mistake in the library, Xu Rui's Wolf Fang troops took advantage of the loophole, and then this mopping up operation would have to be postponed for who knows how many days.
When Inukaijiro arrived, it was almost eleven o'clock in the night. After receiving the news, Asahinaji, the garrison captain of the Kusabamon arsenal, hurriedly brought several of his officers to the gate to line up to greet him. However, Inukaijiro was borrowed by Inukaijiro. On the pretext of formalism, he cursed bloody.
Major Asahinaji was speechless because the former captain of the Nanjing Military Police, Hatota Hiroshi, liked this style very much. Every time Hatoda Hiroshi went to inspect the subordinate units, if the subordinate units did not hold a welcome ceremony, Hatota Hiroshi would definitely look for him when he came back. There are various reasons to give you little shoes to wear, or to deduct your benefits or default on military pay.
So when he heard that the new captain was coming to inspect, Asahinaji quickly organized people to welcome him.
As a result, unexpectedly, the new captain didn't like this. This was really flattering, and Major Asahinaji could only admit that he was unlucky.
Goujiang Jiro trained for a long time, and finally said: "Asahina-san, if you have the time and energy, you should think about how to strengthen the defense of the arsenal to prevent the Wolf Fang from taking advantage of the loopholes. Xu Rui's Wolf Fang troops are not just blown away. , that’s really powerful, as long as you reveal even the slightest flaw, they will catch you immediately.”
"Hai," Asahina said immediately, "Thank you, Colonel, for your guidance."
Inukai Jiro snorted softly, and then said: "Asahina-san, take me around first."
"Hai." Asahinaji paused heavily, then turned around and raised his hands and said, "His Majesty Colonel, please."

Let’s talk about Xu Rui, the operation at Ziyuan Airport has quietly begun.
At ten o'clock in the evening, most of the Japanese pilots, ground staff, and airport garrison troops had already fallen asleep. Only a few pilots and ground staff were still on duty at the tower. Lao Tang and the three of them wanted to stay and make midnight snacks for the Japanese on duty. , so they couldn’t leave until after one in the morning, so no one came to drive them away.
At midnight, Xu Rui took the opportunity to enter the terminal building to deliver supper, and decisively cut off the electric box.
In the evening, taking the opportunity to enter the terminal building to deliver dinner, Xu Rui had already identified the location of the electric box.
As soon as the power box was cut off, the entire airport immediately fell into darkness. Then, Xu Rui, Mo Zichen and Lao Tang took advantage of the cover of darkness and headed straight for the tarmac as quickly as possible.
At this time, the entire airport was plunged into darkness. The Japanese pilots and ground staff who stayed on duty at the tower, as well as the Japanese garrison troops responsible for guarding the perimeter, did not know what had happened. They waited until the ground staff called the electrician class to conduct emergency repairs. Five minutes had elapsed after the circuit was reconnected and the lighting system turned back on.
To be honest, the Japs' reaction speed is already very fast!
Unfortunately, these five minutes were enough for Xu Rui and the others to run to the tarmac and launch the bombers.
Soon, the control tower first spotted the Type 96 bomber taxiing to the runway. The tower quickly contacted the bomber through the airborne communication channel, but there was no response. After three consecutive calls and no response, the Japanese ground crew at the control tower immediately realized. If something goes wrong, call the garrison immediately for ground interception.
However, at this time, the Type 96 bomber had already skidded to the middle of the runway.
The truck of the garrison arrived. The nose of the Type 96 bomber was raised sharply, and then it took off into the sky. Dozens of Japanese soldiers jumped out of the truck with 38 covers, but they could only watch the Type 96 bomber helplessly. The huge fuselage of the Type 6 bomber roared past their heads, and then quickly disappeared into the night sky ahead.
Major Takehara didn't have time to put on his woolen coat, so he rushed into the terminal building wearing only a shirt, and then went straight to the control tower on the second floor. What greeted him was a dozen bewildered airport ground staff and tower control personnel, as well as Two Army aviation pilots with indifferent expressions.
"What's going on?" Takehara asked in a deep voice, "It seemed like a bomber took off just now?"
"Hai." A tower controller immediately replied, "The No. 008 of the second bomber squadron took off half a minute ago. The tower tried to contact the crew, but there was no response."
At this time, one of the pilots said lazily: "The crew of No. 008 did not take off. The person who took off the No. 008 bomber just now should be someone else."
"Someone else?" Takehara's face immediately darkened and he asked, "Who could that be?"
"I don't know," the pilot said with a shrug, "but it certainly wasn't our crew."
Another pilot said: "Maybe the Wolf Fang troops secretly infiltrated and stole the bomber."
"This is impossible. There is no abnormality in the peripheral security network. There is no way that the Wolf Fang can penetrate in." Takehara suddenly felt a pause in his heart when he said this. Then he suddenly turned around and yelled at the adjutant behind him, "Go to the kitchen immediately and take a look. Are the two cooks who came with Tang Sang this afternoon still there? Hurry!"
"Hai!" The adjutant paused heavily, turned around and ran away.
After a while, the adjutant ran back panting and brought bad news to Takehara. Not only were the two helpers who came with Lao Tang in the afternoon missing, but Lao Tang was also missing!
"Baga!" Takehara cursed, and then shivered excitedly.
On the one hand, Takehara was blown away by the cold wind in October, but on the other hand, Takehara thought of the serious consequences that this incident would bring. For the Japanese army, the Type 96 bomber could be said to be Strategic-level heavy weapons, the loss of a Type 96 Type 6 bomber was enough to commit suicide a dozen times by committing seppuku!

At this time, the 96-type 6 bomber piloted by Xu Rui had already rushed into the night sky.
That's it for Xu Rui. He has flown the most advanced stealth fighters in the 21st century. This type of propeller bomber during World War II has long been used as a strange sight, but Mo Zichen and Lao Tang were extremely excited, because this was still The two of them went up to the sky for the first time. They looked down through the portholes and saw dots of lights on the ground, as small as fireflies on a summer night. Under the lights, the streets in Nanjing were like ribbons.
Lao Tang was more reserved, but Mo Zichen howled like a wild beast.
"Hey, little devil, I call you an ancestor, I call you an ancestor of the eighteenth generation."
"Oh, hahaha, little devil, if you have the guts to bite your grandpa, come to the sky and bite your grandpa."
"Oooh, ooh, ooh, little devil, grandpa has prepared delicious food for you, and I will give it to you later."
Mo Zichen shouted excitedly while vigorously shaking the bomb release lever in the middle of the cabin.
Xu Rui immediately shouted: "Old Mo, just calm down, but don't drop the bomb right now!"
If someone accidentally throws the bomb now, it will definitely become the most legendary war story that will forever be recorded in the history of the Dameishan Military Division, but it will not be a positive one.
Mo Zichen finally calmed down, looked back at the aerial bomb hanging in the cabin, and asked, "Captain, how are you going to throw this bomb later?"
Xu Rui replied while flying the plane: "Just use the bombing rod in your hand. If you see the red button on it, when you get to the sky above the Caochangmen Arsenal, you just need to press the button. Forty aerial bombs will be dropped, blowing up the Caochangmen arsenal."
"Damn it, is this the bomb pole used for dropping bombs?" Mo Zichen was startled and quickly let go.
"Otherwise, what do you think it is?" Xu Rui said with a strange smile, "Do you think it is an armrest?"
Mo Zichen scratched his head and said, "Commander, don't laugh. I really thought this was just an armrest."
While he was talking, Xu Rui's Type 96 Type 6 bomber had already flown over Nanjing City and flew outside Caochangmen. The Caochangmen arsenal in front immediately entered Xu Rui, Mo Zichen, and Lao Tang. In the field of vision, the dozens of high-power searchlights at the Caochangmen Arsenal were too eye-catching.
"Old Mo, get ready!" Xu Rui controlled the joystick and pointed the flight direction of the 96-type 6 bomber steadily towards the Caochangmen arsenal. Then he dropped slightly and spoke to Mo through the airborne communication channel. Zichen said, "You must be sure to throw it accurately later, and you must throw the bomb into the arsenal!"
"Captain, don't worry!" Mo Dachen responded loudly, then pointed one eye at the sight glass.
The next moment, several beams of bright searchlights entered the sight of the sighting scope, and then, the endless warehouses in the arsenal also entered the sight of the sighting scope, and this is it! Mo Zichen hummed softly, stretched out his right thumb and pressed it gently, and the bomber's bottom hatch opened with a bang. (To be continued.)
