Bright sword: starting from the logistics department

Chapter 121 The plane is coming
After several hours, Zhao Gan's words finally reached the brigade commander's ears after going round and round!
The brigade commander laughed when he heard it, and said to the chief of staff next to him: "Chief of staff, I guess this Zhao Qian must have used white phosphorus to attack the artillery position of the little devil, and killed the little devil's shell by mistake!"

"Oh, Old Chen, why do you have such a guess?"

"Hehe, this kid went to the arsenal to buy a lot of white phosphorus and explosives before he set off. This matter is definitely not as simple as he said, so don't issue condemnations. Besides, although there is an international saying that white phosphorus bombs are banned, there is no relevant treaty. Anyway, we are not at a disadvantage!"

After hearing the brigade commander's words, the chief of staff smiled and pointed at the brigade commander with his index finger and said, "These regiment commanders below really can't escape your sharp eyes no matter what they do!"

"Believe it or not, just the group of guys below, if I loosen the reins a little, I guess they can turn the entire Jin Province into a mess!"

"That's right, let's not talk about Li Yunlong, even Zhao Qian and Ding Wei are not safe! I heard that when Ding Wei was the head of the 28th regiment, he actually brewed wine privately. He didn't drink it himself, but sold it outside!"

"Hahaha, I've also heard about this incident, so I have to control them more tightly. If something happens, I can make some preparations in advance!"

"I think you are preparing in advance how to save them! Hahaha."

"Hey, Chief of Staff, how can you say that about me! You see they made mistakes, which time I didn't punish them, what do you mean by keeping them?"

"Yes, yes, you are right, you call it special treatment for special things!"

"Hahaha you still understand me!"

At the same time, the Japanese Taiyuan Command:
Hiroyuki Nakamura walked into Yoshio Shinozuka's office again, and said directly, "General, something happened to the Heavy Artillery Regiment!"

Shinozuka Yoshio immediately stood up when he heard it, and said in disbelief: "What? Say it again?"

"General, at around 3:40 this morning, the 105 howitzer position on the Yuci battlefield was attacked by the Eighth Route Army at night. All the 105 howitzers were destroyed by explosives. The heat wave and sparks from the explosive explosion caused a chain reaction in the shells in the distance. All the shells exploded, including the 300 white phosphorus shells!"

Shinozuka Yoshio took the telegram with trembling hands and began to examine it carefully!

After reading the above content, he angrily tore up the telegram in his hand, and then roared at Hiroyuki Nakamura: "How is the captain of the 105th Howitzer Squad? Is he dead? If he is not dead, let him apologize by cutting open his stomach!"

"General, Yijing, the commander of the 105th Howitzer Regiment, died in battle. He was burned to death by white phosphorous bombs!"

Shinozuka Yoshio suppressed the anger in his heart, sat heavily on the office chair, and said sternly: "It's dead, it's really cheap for him, he should apologize by cutting open his stomach! He actually caused the empire to lose a heavy artillery unit. Doesn't he know that heavy artillery is a strategic weapon even in the empire?"

Hiroyuki Nakamura didn't answer Yoshio Shinozuka's words, just stood and looked at him!
After talking to himself for a while, Yoshio Shinozuka said to Hiroyuki Nakamura, "Did the explosion of the white phosphorous bomb cause a lot of casualties to the three infantry regiments? How many casualties?"

"General, this bombing caused great casualties to the three infantry regiments;
Among them, the Xionggu United Squad had already lost a brigade, but this time it lost two squadrons again;

Hamada United suffered more casualties than Kumagai United, and they lost nearly a brigade of troops;

The casualties of the Murata United were the greatest, and they lost four squadrons in full! "

"What? That is to say, after the Murata regiment arrived, the imperial army lost a heavy artillery regiment and three infantry brigades before they attacked?"

"Yes, General!"

"Then how many troops do they have left?"

"General, there are about 2400 remaining members of the Kumagai United, including 1600 combatants;
There are about 2600 remaining members of Hamada United, including 1900 fighters;
There are about 2600 remaining members of the Murata United, including 2000 fighters! "

Shinozuka Yoshio asked in disbelief: "What? In just two days, the imperial army actually suffered 5900 casualties at this location?"

"Yes, General, the main casualties are here, and the imperial army suffered more than 3000 casualties this time!"

Shinozuka Yoshio rubbed his head and said, "I see, you go back first!"

"Hi!"

After Yu Nakamura walked, Yoshio Shinozuka thought for a while, picked up the phone on the table and dialed: "Pick me up to the *Ping Command!"

"General Okamura, I'm Yoshio Shinozuka!"

"Oh, Shinozuka-kun, what's the matter?"

"The general is like this. There is still a shortage of some planes here in Jin Province, but Colonel Yoshino Hiroyuki is unwilling to send the remaining few planes in order to defend Taiyuan City. Since the final ownership of the flying team belongs to you, I can only ask for your support!"

"Oh, just this matter, I will contact him later, and let him fully obey your orders during this period!"

"Thank you General!"

"Anything else?"

"there is none left!"

"Then I'll hang up!"

It was the first time that Yoshio Shinozuka felt the sound of "beep" and "beep" on the phone was so beautiful, he leaned on his office chair with an excited face.

After a while, the phone on the desk in front of him rang. Shinozuka Yoshio slowly sat up straight, picked up the receiver and said, "Moses Moses, I'm Shinozuka Yoshio!"

"General, I am Hiroyuki Yoshino, Mr. Okamura has informed me that I will fully obey your orders before this battle is over!
I hope you don't mind what I said before! "

"Captain Yoshino is also for the great cause of the empire, I don't mind! Now I want to ask Captain Yoshino to send two fighter jets and one bomber tomorrow to support the battle in the eastern section of Yuci!"

"General, there is no problem at all, I will arrange it!"

"Then trouble Captain Yoshino!"

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Shinozuka Yoshio was the first to hang up the phone!
After hanging up the phone, he shouted to the outside: "Come on!"

"General!"

"Send a report to the Murata Regiment, Murata Wuyue, because your command caused the empire to lose a regiment of 105 howitzers, you should have been dismissed and investigated, but now is the time for employing people, and I will give you a chance to make meritorious deeds;

You three regiments have suffered heavy losses just now, and you will take a rest for a day. Tomorrow morning, two fighter jets and one bomber will assist you in attacking the Eighth Route Army's position. If you fail to take the position, the headquarters will liquidate the loss of the 2 howitzer with you! "

"Yes, General!"

When Murata Wuyue received the telegram, after checking it carefully, someone called Keiji Iwatani and Eihito Hamada over.

After the two received the notice from Murata Wuyue, they followed the messenger to his headquarters. When Murata Wuyue saw the two of them coming in, the chair next to him stretched out his right arm and said, "Sit!"

The two nodded to him before sitting on the chair!

After seeing the two of them seated, Murata Wuzuki said directly: "Hamada-kun and Iwatani-kun, I have already reported the incident in the early morning to General Shinozuka Yoshio, and the general's order has also come down!

The general ordered us to rest for a whole day, and cooperate with the Imperial Air Force to take the opposite position directly tomorrow morning! "

After hearing this, Keiji Iwatani and Eihito Hamada looked at each other and said at the same time, "Hi!"

Fang Baoping, the company commander of the third company in the Second Independent Regiment's position, looked at the little devil who had been silent all this time, walked out of the position and returned to the front headquarters, saw Zhang Zhong and said, "Battle Commander, what's the matter with the little devil, it's very unreasonable to not retaliate after suffering such a big loss!"

Zhang Zhong said without raising his head: "You also said that they suffered such a big loss just now. The heavy artillery has been destroyed. What kind of attack are they going to use? They are probably waiting for new heavy artillery or planes to come!"

After a pause, Zhang Zhong continued: "I'll ask the soldiers from the first company and the second company to send you a pile of firewood. When I saw the little devil's plane coming over, I immediately poured gasoline on it, and then lit the pile of firewood. The bigger the smoke, the better!"

"firewood?"

"Well! Just remember what I said!"

"Yes, battalion commander!"

In this way, the Second Independent Regiment and the 771st Regiment spent the day peacefully without any fighting!

The next day, shortly after the sun rose, Fang Baoping suddenly heard a sound of "boom" and "boom" in the air.

Hearing this sound, he immediately realized that it was the little devil's plane coming, and then he quickly shouted to the soldiers of the third company: "Hurry up and light the firewood pile! Then enter the artillery hole!"

After the soldiers of the third company heard the order, they quickly poured gasoline on the firewood, then threw a lit Molotov cocktail on top, and quickly got into the blast hole!

When Murata Wuyue at the foot of the mountain heard the sound of the plane, he quickly sent someone to inform Keiji Iwatani and Eihito Hamada to assemble their troops and prepare to attack!

But what they didn't expect was that before the plane arrived, puffs of black smoke rose from the position on the mountain ridge, which could be said to block out the sky due to the large number.

When the little devil's plane arrived, they were all hovering over the little devil's head at the foot of the mountain, instead of flying to the position on the mountain ridge!

Seeing the billowing black smoke on the Eighth Route position, the captains of the three planes immediately contacted Taiyuan Airport: "Airport, airport, this is aircraft No. 1, this is aircraft No. 1!"

"Received at the airport, please tell me about aircraft No. 1!"

"Here in the Eastern Battlefield of Yuci, the Eighth Route Army on the ground lit an unknown number of fires, thick black smoke rose, and it was impossible to see the situation on the ground from the air, and the rising thermal airflow seriously interfered with the aircraft! It was impossible to launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army's position!"

"Unit 1, please wait for a while, I will contact Captain Yoshino right away!"

"Ok!"

After receiving the report from the airport ground staff, Yoshino Hiroyuki quickly called Shinozuka Yoshio.

"General Shinozuka, it's me, Hiroyuki Yoshino!"

"Captain Yoshino, what's the matter?"

"General, on the battlefield to the east of Yuci, the Eighth Route Army lit an unknown number of fires on the position. According to the pilot's account, the number of fires was very large, and the thick smoke rising made it impossible for them to accurately attack the Eighth Route Army's position;
And the airflow burning in the fire has seriously interfered with the flight of the aircraft! "

"What? Can't planes drop bombs at high altitude?"

"Yes, but because the situation on the ground can't be clearly seen, and because of the altitude, the pilots can't accurately drop the aerial bombs on the Eighth Route Army's position;
Also, because of the airflow, pilots could not use machine guns to shoot and kill the Eighth Route Army on the ground! "

"Baga! Order them to drop bombs at high altitude, and at the same time send two bombers to act together!"

"Hi!"

The air-raid shelter where Fang Baoping is located in the blocking position:
"Company commander, why doesn't the little devil's plane drop bombs?"

"How do I know, it's not good if you don't drop bombs?"

"Of course it's fine not to drop bombs, but they always feel like something is hanging in their hearts when they don't drop bombs, which is very uncomfortable!"

"Don't feel bad, since they are here, they will definitely drop the bomb, just wait!"

At the regiment headquarters of the Second Independent Regiment, Zhao Gan was observing the situation in the forward position with a telescope; when he saw that the little devil's plane was always circling below the mountain and did not dare to fly up the mountain ridge, his worry gradually calmed down!

After Zhao Qian put down the binoculars, he said to Yu Shan who was next to him: "These bastards just finished their heavy artillery, and the plane came again the next day!"

Yu Shan pondered for a while and said, "How about I blow up their airport?"

Zhao Gan was stunned for a moment when he heard Yu Shan's words. After he realized what he said, he slapped Yu Shan on the head with a huge profit and said, "Did you blow up the little devil's heavy artillery and floated away? Where is the little devil's airport? Is it possible for your assault platoon to lurk in?"

Yu Shan scratched his head and said, "Leader, I can try!"

Zhao Gan smiled and said to him: "Try it? Then let me tell you about the basic situation of Taiyuan Airport. It is still the guard when there is no battle!"

Since one of their airports was bombed by our Eighth Route Army, every airport of the little devil has been blocked by barbed wire, and the barbed wire is electrified, the kind of high-voltage electricity;
The surrounding area of ​​the airport is full of irregular minefields except for the gate, even the little devils don't know how to get through;

The entire airport is usually equipped with a large group of infantry patrolling continuously, remember that this is just a patrolling force;

It was outside just now, and the inside of the airport is even more anti-aircraft guns, there are countless flat-firing guns, and there are several armored vehicles;

Oh, by the way, there is also a devil from the garrison brigade inside the airport!Don't try to pretend to be a puppet army to go in, no Chinese can approach near the airport;
The most important thing is that not far from the airport is the barracks of the little devil's Taiyuan garrison, where there is always a mixed brigade of the A-type division standard, and the status of the brigade leader is equivalent to that of a B-type division head!
How about you go and blow up the little devil at the airport in Taiyuan? "

Yu Shan's head was shaking like a rattle, and he kept saying, "No, no! This is not going to bomb the airport! This is going to die!"
