Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 589 Li Yunlong's Artillery Battalion
Flying a plane to cultivate immortality is something that not only the fake immortal master of the Sanyi Sect, but even all the real immortals in history could not have imagined.

This experience of traveling freely in the sky and flying at high speed is, to some extent, in line with that of a real "god". Even a real god may not be able to fly so fast.

Of course, when it comes to the skill of "merging the body into heaven and earth", it is completely different.

But after all, the two are different. One is to take shortcuts, relying on the fact that one's body is composed of innate Qi, and melt the Qi body between heaven and earth, which means that heaven and earth become a part of the body, which is equivalent to that one is already there. Although it is not teleportation, the speed is definitely fast enough.

Extending Qi to the maximum distance, according to He Songling's current level of cultivation, a trip to Europe or America can reach an average speed of one thousand kilometers per hour, which is faster than the eight or nine hundred kilometers per hour of future civil airliners. The top speed of the fighter jet he is currently driving is far faster than that.

But when it comes to purely physical means of propulsion of flight, it is far inferior.

Even if it was a true immortal, it would not be easy to maintain a speed of more than 700 kilometers per hour using purely physical propulsion to fly long distances. In the Toutian Cave in the northeast, when Huang Daxian went down the mountain to steal chickens, he threw his body out. The speed was estimated by the time he went back and forth, and it was probably about the same as this.

But it may not last.

This is actually not surprising. Since the Industrial Revolution, many technological products have enabled humans to possess means comparable to or even surpass those of immortals.

The most classic example is the destructive power of thermal weapons. Compared with the fat man and the little boy, the gods are just ordinary creatures. The ability of airplanes to fly, cranes to be powerful, submarines to dive, and even rockets and spacecraft to explore outer space are all things that gods do not have.

It's just that there has never been a strange person, or a strange person as powerful as He Songling, to personally control these things. Even if you tie a kid like Zhang Chulan to a rocket and shoot him to the moon, he won't be able to figure out the way to become an immortal.

But Wu Gensheng, even if he had used a Mauser pistol once, could raise his realm to a higher level and put forward the viewpoint of "burn incense when it is time to burn incense, and fire a gun when it is time to fire a gun". This is the difference in realm.

He Songling had flown before, but apart from the training at the Flying Tigers training ground, this was his first time flying a long-distance plane. The feeling of man and machine being one, the shock of flying freely in the sky, made him involuntarily shout, "What can..."

Wrong, this is a fighter jet.

It seems to be correct. After all, fighter jets of this era also have propellers.

But no matter what, He Songling did have an epiphany.

It's not about flying a plane all the time. If that were the case, he would have to fly around the earth in the sky for who knows how many years. It would be better to wait until the 1960s and find someone to use a rocket to launch him into low-Earth orbit as a satellite.

What we really need to do is to act with "immortal means". For example, flying an airplane in the sky, driving a submarine into the sea, or...

"Fire! Fire! Lao He, bomb these damned Japanese devils to death for me!"

Independent Regiment, Li Yunlong kept shouting in his rough and loud voice.

Since He Songling realized that if he wanted to become an immortal, he had to act in an "immortal" way, he went directly to Li Yunlong's independent regiment. Of course, it was impossible for a person at the level of the chief instructor and lieutenant colonel battalion commander of the Flying Tigers to serve as an artilleryman under Li Yunlong. This is not just a matter of whether the bald man is happy or not, our army also has discipline.

But it doesn’t matter, as I said, He Songling has the ability to make money.

He funded the establishment of an artillery battalion, and his rank as a lieutenant colonel was just enough for him to be the battalion commander. In name, it was a local militia security force, but during the Anti-Japanese War, the two sides cooperated. He Songling encountered the devils in the northwest of Shanxi and was unable to defeat the enemy. He was temporarily protected by friendly forces and cooperated in combat under the command of the friendly commander. There was no problem at all.

So Li Yunlong's independent regiment also had an artillery battalion like Chu Yunfei's.

Li Yunlong is much more powerful than Chu Yunfei in fighting the Japanese. The Sakata Regiment at the beginning of "Bright Sword" had an encounter with Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment. After only one hour of fighting, 358 people were killed. Chu Yunfei himself admitted that if he hadn't led his men to run quickly, the th Regiment would probably have been wiped out there.

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, broke through the front battlefield and killed the commander of the regiment, Sakata, his staff officers and adjutants with one shot. Although luck was mostly the cause, it is undeniable that Li Yunlong's record against the Japanese army was much better than Chu Yunfei's.

It was during the Japanese "mopping-up" that the independent regiment was disbanded and lost more than half of its members. In the end, there were only 200 people left out of a regiment of more than 1,000 people. Wang Gensheng, Xizi and other sharpshooters, as well as the cavalry company commander Sun Desheng, were all killed in this incident.

Even Li Yunlong himself fell seriously ill and nearly died.

But with the artillery battalion composed of American heavy artillery supported by He Songling, it was a different story.

Although one battalion could not change the situation on the battlefield, Li Yunlong's independent regiment changed from fleeing in panic and being chased and killed to fighting and retreating. While retreating westward, it also bombarded the Japanese mopping-up troops with artillery, which made them complain bitterly.

The Japanese's armaments were only better than the old bells of that era, and they could not even be ranked in front of the real "great powers". Whether it was their small-caliber Type 92 infantry guns or those toy cardboard tanks, if they were placed on the European battlefield, they would really be like toys.

For example, the "gun tower" can blockade an area and has a good observation field and support capabilities. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, it caused many casualties of our troops.

But that thing was just bullying our army because they didn't have heavy artillery. In a battlefield environment with real artillery, this thing would be a sitting duck, a simple wooden tower with only a few supporting firepower points around it. One shot would wipe out the entire group.

Now, Li Yunlong has a cannon.

"Boom boom boom!"

He Songling fired three artillery shells, which blew to pieces the Japanese troops who had taken advantage of our firepower and only sent a large number of light infantry.

Human power is no match for heavy artillery. No matter how loyal the Japanese were to the emperor, they could not throw their lives into the mouth of the enemy's artillery. Realizing that the enemy had several heavy artillery pieces, the Japanese immediately began to order a retreat.

"Hahahahaha!" Li Yunlong laughed happily as he watched the Japanese retreating like a tide. "Fight them for me. Chase them and beat them hard. Sun Desheng, where are the horses of your fucking cavalry company? Give me one!"
