Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

Chapter 239 Let's See How Generous the Real Commander of Our 8th Route Army Is

Chapter 239 Let's see how generous the real division commander of our Eighth Route Army is
Inside Zhongtiao Mountain, Shaoyuan.

In order to cooperate well with the 129th Division, wipe out all the devil mobile units that rushed out of the line of defense.Li Yunlong led the soldiers of the four regiments to deploy defenses in advance, and had already built a position outside the town.

The entire division was in a rear triangle formation, with the Northwest Army and the Shaanxi Army in front, and the First Marine Regiment and the Jinsui Army in the rear.

Such an arrangement is not because Captain Li has gone bad. He is like some people who used the cannon fodder to attract the enemy's most ferocious first wave of firepower.

This formation is a tactic discussed by the high-level officials. Brigadier Gao and Brigadier Wang also volunteered to be at the forefront.

According to the words of the two, their soldiers have experienced the baptism of the enemy's high-intensity attack, and they are most suitable to entangle the frontal attacking devils in the form of positional warfare.

The 21st regiment is a supplementary regiment, with too many recruits and relatively weak combat effectiveness.

The best choice is to follow the Marine Regiment with the strongest mobility and combat effectiveness, set up positions in the rear, and be responsible for supporting the actions of friendly forces in front.

In everyone's assumption, if the Shaanxi Army on the right finds the enemy, the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army will detour to the enemy's flank to launch an attack.

If the Northwest Army on the left finds the enemy, the Shaanxi Army will detour to the enemy's right flank, and at the same time Li Yunlong and Wang Dahai will also send troops to the high ground on the left to cover.

Of course, this tactic is based on the premise that the number of enemies will not be too many.

Otherwise, the two fixed points of the triangular formation would be easily overwhelmed by the devils, and they would lose everything at that time.

······
In the Joint Headquarters of the First Marine Regiment and the Jinsui Army, Wang Dahai paced around the room impatiently.

"Official, we don't have much ammunition, you have to find a way."

"Comrades fought guerrilla warfare with a division of the devils for five full days, and now there are no more than [-] rounds of ammunition left per capita."

"The shells for mortars and bazookas are not very abundant. Once we confront the enemy, our two regiments will run out of ammunition and food if we persist for half a day at most."

After saying this, Li and Zhao looked at each other very tacitly, and they both saw a suppressed smile from the other's expression.

Since Wang Dahai temporarily joined the team with the 21st Regiment, his speaking habits have changed. He has lost the arrogance of the warlord troops and has become more humble and polite.

The atmosphere in their regiment also unknowingly became more harmonious, even the soldiers themselves did not realize it.

Although it still retains some of the bad ethos of the Jinsui Army, it can definitely be called a reborn now.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Dahai has subtly changed the word "brothers" to comrades.The whole person looks very angry, and outsiders will definitely not be able to notice the clues once the clothes are changed.

Seeing that his allies are in such a hurry, Li Yunlong is also embarrassed to joke with them.He looked at the watch on his hand, and then said seriously:

"Old Wang, I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry. I used the 98th Army's radio station to contact our brigade headquarters, and the superior will send a batch of supplies soon."

"That batch of weapons and supplies is at least enough for the troops for a week. Let alone a few thousand little devils, we can afford to delay even a whole independent mixed brigade."

"According to the calculation, the time should be almost up. Come out with me to see what the superior has prepared for us."

Wang Dahai was completely confused by these words, the supplies enough for a division for a week is not a small amount.If it is pulled by truck or animal power, the transportation cost alone is not low.

And now that the northeast line of Zhongtiao Mountain is still fighting, how can the transport team complete the assembly in a short time and pass through the fighting area to Shaoyuan.

Just when he couldn't figure it out, the hum of a piston engine sounded in the sky, and the three of them hurried out of the headquarters,
Wang Dahai raised the binoculars in his hand to look, and saw 25 large transport planes appearing in the distant sky, and they were passing through the clouds and gradually lowering their altitude.

Behind those planes, there are still huge wooden planes dragging one by one, which seems to have the effect of covering the clouds and the sun.

At high altitude, there are dozens of fighter jets escorting vaguely.They have never lowered their altitude, and they are constantly patrolling the entire airspace, guarding against possible enemy planes.

In the rear triangle position, the soldiers of the Northwest Army and the Shaanxi Army looked very panicked.

After all, no one knew where those transport planes and fighter jets came from, and which force they belonged to. If they were bombers from the North China Front Army, they would be out of luck.

But soon sharp-eyed soldiers saw the identification marks under the plane's wings.

Since joining the First Marine Regiment, they have often cooperated with the First Air Division, so they naturally recognize the Air Force of the Eighth Route Army.

While the other troops were still in a daze, the comrades of the [-]st Marine Regiment had already started to act.

Li Yunlong took out a portable communicator and ordered to the three battalion commanders: "Hurry up and fire the signal flare! Let the soldiers prepare to guide Principal Chang to drop supplies!"

In fact, there was no need for him to remind, everyone had already done the reception work, and prepared the airdrop site behind the position.

On the ground, stones and blocks of wood have been used to mark the conspicuous cross marks, and several piles of lit firewood around them rise up with thick black smoke, guiding the transport plane in the air.

After the entire transport formation passed through the clouds, dozens of flares were launched into the sky.

Every soldier in the [-]st Marine Regiment carried a flare, which was not used much in this battle, so naturally there was enough in stock.

After receiving the signal, the air trains adjusted their course and prepared to perform airdrop operations.

After 5 minutes, the steel cables on the first batch of transport planes were unhooked.The eight Horsa loaded with weapons and supplies began to adjust their landing angles, and they flew towards their destination silently.

I don't know if it's the driver's problem or the wind direction, the glider group deviates slightly.

But it's not a big problem. With Huosha's production technology, it can completely achieve a hard landing. As long as it doesn't hit the mountain, there is a high probability that there will be no accidents.

What's more, the field prepared by the First Marine Regiment is also large enough. Everyone is a professionally trained soldier, and they are very thoughtful.

After separating all three batches of gliders, the hatch at the tail of the Skytrain opened and boxes of supplies were dropped.Blossoming white umbrella flowers slowly descend from the sky.

After the mission was successfully completed, a group of transport planes raised their altitude and began to return under the escort of Spitfire and Hurricane.

By now, even the sluggish fruit soldiers knew that supplies were coming.Looking at the cheering soldiers one by one, Li Yunlong said very arrogantly:
"Nearly 41 tons of materials are enough for our four regiments. With these ammunition, even if the [-]st Division comes, I can hold them back!"

"Didn't you three regiments always call me division commander? Today, let me open your eyes and see how generous the real division commander of our Eighth Route Army is."

After speaking, Li Yunlong brought Wang Dahai to the vicinity of the glider, and the colleagues of the Marine Regiment [-] had already started unloading.

In Daiying's original design, a detonating device was set between the second and third fuselages of Horsa.After the aircraft lands, the tail can be detonated to facilitate the rapid entry and exit of personnel and equipment.

However, this device has a certain degree of danger. If the glider is hit by the primer during flight, it will only be destroyed.

The things produced by the Awakening Tiger System naturally don't have such a big flaw.

The Horsa of the [-]st Air Division uses a quick-release bolt.With the caliper used to cut off the control cable, it can be quickly disassembled under the premise of ensuring safety.

For Wang Dahai, transport planes are new gadgets, let alone a glider that can "fly" without power.

What's more, the Huosha glider was in the original timeline, but it was a new equipment developed by Dai Ying in September 1941, and the first battle was two years later.

Now even if the Marshal of the Royal Air Force came to North China in person, it is still unclear who copied whose design on both sides.

Looking at the 27-meter-long wing, Wang Dahai said in a wordy voice:
"Official, it turns out that what you said before is true. It seems that I am really a frog at the bottom of a well. Your Eighth Route Army is more advanced than I imagined."

"This thing is called a glider, right? How much can it hold?"

When they first came into contact with the First Marine Regiment, the soldiers of the 21st Regiment were still unwilling to believe that Yunlong descended from the sky.In their cognition, jumping off a plane is a sure way to die.

Moreover, Li Yunlong once said that among the soldiers in the First Marine Regiment, any one randomly drawn out from the original unit was the company commander, and there were even quite a few battalion commanders.

Even if there are soldiers below the platoon leader, they are the type with special skills like Wang Xikui.

Wang Dahai didn't believe this at all, how could such an elite army be deployed on the battlefield behind the enemy.

But today the facts are in front of him, and combined with the performance of the first marine regiment these days, he has to believe it if he doesn't believe it.After all, it is an airdrop of supplies and a glider transportation, so it must be the treasure of the superior.

After hearing the other party's question, Li Yunlong originally wanted to give an approximate number.But Zhang Dabiao brought all the glider pilots and helped his head out of the siege.

Of the fifty pilots, only one was slightly injured when it landed, and the rest were all unharmed.

Everyone is an acquaintance from the same base, and every second counts on the battlefield. Li Yunlong took the list without too much greetings and started to check what good things there are.

But at this moment, there was a burst of exclamation from the Jinsui Army's transportation team not far away.

"Wow! I read that right! Type [-] infantry artillery! Can even this thing be air-dropped?"

"What is this? It looks like an anti-tank gun! Comrade, can you make this thing? Can you teach me!"

"A lot of mortars! A lot of shells! Commander! We're getting rich!"

As soon as the last sentence came out, someone in the transportation team seriously corrected him.It is worth mentioning that the other party actually talked about the three major disciplines and eight points of attention.

The Huosha transport aircraft has a lot of space and carrying capacity. In the original design, it can even drop jeeps and QF 6-pound anti-tank guns.

Although Miss 75 cannot be transported, the 34-type infantry artillery and SA[-] seized in the warehouse must be easy.

After regaining consciousness, Li Yunlong looked at the list. In addition to conventional weapons and ammunition, this time he dropped ten 34-type infantry guns and five SA[-]s.

Counting the medicine and food, the marine regiment can definitely dig through the center of the earth!

 I asked for a monthly ticket in the second watch, and it was gone in the early morning
