my bright sword career

"Chief...the plane is coming, hurry out and enter the air-raid shelter!"

The two guards who followed Master Liu and Political Commissar Heping heard the roar of the plane, and their expressions immediately changed, urging the chiefs to rush to air defense.

It's just that the words were just out of my mouth, but I saw that the chiefs were still standing there motionless.

"You two brats, what are you panicking about?"

Political commissar Ping scolded with a smile: "I didn't see that the local snake, Captain Gao, didn't move. Why are you so anxious?"

Gao Hongming also smiled: "Sirs, these planes are the bomber group that we just finished bombing a large Japanese field airport. They should be landing. Since there are more planes, the movement is a bit louder."

After finishing speaking, Gao Hongming told everyone what happened today.

Commander Liu, the Eighth Route Army and other leaders are not veterans who have survived many battles, but this is the first time they have heard such a thrilling air battle.

Whether it was the threat posed to the Japanese army by the four radar stations established outside Liantai County, or the Second Flying Division of the Japanese Kwantung Army, in order to deal with the Liantai Flying Brigade, they specially set up traps outside the radar detection range and dispatched a special agent team to conduct surveillance on the radar stations. In order to launch a surprise attack, the patrol team of the Liantai Flying Corps was ambushed.

Even Gao Hongming immediately ordered all fighter jets to take off to meet the enemy, and then dispatched bombers to carry out cruel revenge without hesitation, all of which showed the cruelty of air combat far surpassing that of ground combat.

After a long time, Brigadier Chen said with emotion: "Originally, I thought that after fighting a battle with Commander Gao in Zhongtiao Mountain last year, I thought I had a great understanding of air combat, but now I realize that I know too much. Too shallow!"

"Yes!"

Commissar Ping also sighed softly, picked up a cigarette from the table and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and said: "Since the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance, our army has been reorganized into the Eighth Route Army. Kou fought hard and arduously.

But all the battles only took place on the ground. Air combat is unfamiliar to us. After all, the only thing we could do after encountering Japanese planes in the past was to disperse and evade. Who made us have no air power?

But judging from Gao Hongming's narration today, in the near future, air combat will occupy an increasing proportion of wars. It is very difficult for an army without air supremacy to win victory on the battlefield. "

Master Liu did not speak, but took off his glasses, wiped them with a cloth for a while, put them on again, and asked Gao Hongming, "Commander Gao, according to the agreement we reached, our 129th Division will form a temporary formation with your department after arriving in Liantai County. Combined command, until the end of this campaign, is that right?"

Hearing Master Liu's words, Gao Hongming naturally understood the elegant meaning of listening to the string song, and immediately understood what Master Liu meant, and said with a smile: "Of course, since the joint command headquarters is established, everyone should confess each other's strength, so as to command the battle Talent is like an arm.

How about this, to show my sincerity, let me first introduce the current situation of the troops in Liantai County to the officers.

After the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, we felt that the Liantai militia was lacking in strength, and our Liantai militia has undergone some expansion. The current strength is as follows...

我们的地面部队一共有9个步兵营，每个步兵营的兵力约莫为780多人。炮兵部队则分为4个炮营，其中一个装备有美制M2型203毫米口径的重炮营，两个M40型155自行火炮营，一个M1型105毫米炮营。

There are also two anti-aircraft battalions equipped with 40 Bofors 54mm anti-aircraft guns and 88 27mm anti-aircraft guns.There are also two armored battalions. Each armored battalion is equipped with 4 German-made No. 27 tanks and 12 Bobcat reconnaissance tanks. The above is the basic situation of the ground troops. -47 fighter jet..."

Listening to Gao Hongming presenting the strength and equipment of the Liantai militia, all the generals of the Eighth Route Army present were dumbfounded. It can be said that the weapons and firepower equipped by the Liantai militia alone already cost hundreds of thousands of Eighth Route Army troops. It can't even compare.

Before coming, Commander Liu, Political Commissar Ping, brigade commanders and political commissars of the Eighth Route Army were all wondering why Gao Hongming was able to rely on the strength of a militia to fight against two Japanese divisions without losing ground, and even had the ability to force them back for three days. Ten kilometers, now they understand that there is no other reason... only strength.

Brigadier Chen was the first to say with emotion, "Commander Gao, I thought I had a good understanding of your department's strength during the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan, but now I realize that I still underestimated you."

"Mr. Chen is serious." Gao Hongming said with a smile: "The instructor said long ago that our war of resistance against Japan must be long-lasting, and the final victory will belong to China. It is also the three processes from defense to stalemate to counter-offensive. This process must be accompanied by our gradual growth and the gradual weakening of the Japanese army, so it is normal for the Liantai militia to develop."

Master Liu and the political commissar looked at each other, and they all laughed.Although Gao Hongming's words were a bit evasive, they could also understand. Who doesn't have a little secret? It's understandable that Gao Hongming didn't want to say anything. After a while, I understood.

Speaking of this, the strangeness between the two parties was almost eliminated, and Gao Hongming soon took the initiative to talk about how to change the costume for the 1129th division.

The two parties finally negotiated and decided that the Liantai militia would undertake all the food supplies of the eleven infantry regiments, including the Xinyi regiment that came earlier and the ten regiments that came this time, and allocate 5.6 captured Type 500 infantry regiments. Rifle, [-]mm Arisaka rifle bullets [-] million rounds.

There are also light and heavy weapons such as thirty Maxim heavy machine guns, fifty Czech light machine guns, grenades, 60 mortars, and Type [-] infantry guns for each infantry regiment.

Of course, this is only a preliminary decision, and there will be successive selections in the future, and these weapons are mainly Japanese weapons, basically there is no German equipment used by the Liantai militia.

This is not because Gao Hongming is stingy, but considering that the Eighth Route Army does not have its own military industry system, and most of the weapons and ammunition are captured. At this stage, it is most practical to use Japanese weapons.

But even so, the political commissars of the brigade commanders of the 129th Division are also very satisfied. In their opinion, after this supplement, the 129th Division has changed its weakness after the big sweep, and even far exceeded the state before the big sweep. Even among the three divisions of the entire Eighth Route Army, it can be called the leader.
