My client Li Yunlong

"Public killing, the new Chief of Staff of the North China Front Watanabe."

After marveling at the monthly reward of 50 million silver dollars, Zhao Gang looked at the cooperation content.

Suddenly, Political Commissar Zhao smiled.

The unprecedented scale of the Hundred Regiment War also achieved unprecedented results that far exceeded expectations.

Not only did they cut off the prison chains of the Japs and regain all the territory eroded by the Japs, they also further expanded and connected the three base areas of Taihang, Taiyue and Jinan into one.

A victory of this magnitude needs to be widely publicized.

To enhance the morale of the troops and enhance the people's confidence in victory in the war of resistance.

Let the common people know that the Japanese are not invincible.

Xinhua News Agency is working overtime to collect information and take photos, and the headquarters staff department is also fully cooperating, just to publish a propaganda battle report and then distribute it to the whole country.

Because of the friction with the preserved fruits, they refused to cooperate, suppressed the army's newspapers, and refused to publicize the Hundred Regiments War, so the army had no choice but to do it on its own.

Fortunately, there are planes now,
Newspapers can be airdropped to almost every big city.

Including Shanghai Stock Exchange!

Yes, with the progress of the Hundred Regiments War, the range of control of the troops has been greatly improved. Now, when the transport plane is loaded with 500 kilograms of newspapers, it can fly to Shanghai, drop the newspapers, and then return.

There are also printing presses that can print hundreds of thousands of sheets per day at full capacity.

The public killing here refers to building momentum in newspapers in advance to let the Japanese, the people across the country, and even people abroad know that the army is going to kill the Japanese Chief of Staff of the North China Front.

Then under the heavy protection of the Japanese, he killed Chief of Staff Watanabe.

"What kind of support did Boss Lu give?"

Zhao Gang continued to ask.

Relying on the troops' own capabilities, let alone openly killing Chief of Staff Watanabe, even secret assassinations have a very low chance of success.

In other words, almost impossible.

The Japanese Chief of Staff Watanabe is usually in Beiping, and the security force is strong. Although the strength of the rear of the army has increased greatly due to sufficient funds recently, such a large-scale assassination has almost no success rate.

You must rely on Boss Lu for support.

In fact,
For the assassination of Chief of Staff Watanabe, the Independent Regiment provided personnel, and Boss Lu provided intelligence, equipment, and even combat plans.

"Provide detailed real-time location information of Japanese Chief of Staff Watanabe."

"Ten twin-engine transport aircraft, and radio-guided bombs."

Li Yunlong named the supporting weapons and equipment.

"Twin-engine transport plane?"

"Radio-guided bomb?"

Zhao Gang was stunned for a moment, and then asked emphatically:

"Guidance?"

It is not surprising to provide the detailed real-time location of the Japanese Chief of Staff Watanabe. The same is true for the cooperation with the Japanese Alliance Flag. As for how it is done, it is not important.

He also understands twin-engine transport aircraft.

It is estimated to be faster than the Yun-5 and have a larger carrying capacity. Boss Lu means to use this air strike this time and use this transport plane to load new weapons to attack Chief of Staff Watanabe.

But what does this guidance mean?
"The so-called guidance means control and guidance."

Before Zhao Gang took a closer look, Li Yunlong explained in detail with a proud tone.

"Control guidance?"

"Radio-guided bombs."

"You mean, a radio-controlled and guided bomb?"

Zhao Gang immediately understood the meaning of the name of this weapon, and immediately said in a very shocked tone:
"that is not."

"Throwing it in the air, can it accurately hit the target?"

"I see."

Why did the Japanese, who had absolute air superiority, watch the troops continuously transporting food from the Taiyue base area to the southern Hebei and Taihang base areas without launching bombings?

It's not because the accuracy of aerial bombing is actually very low.

Even if the bombs are dropped at an altitude of several hundred meters or thousands of meters, even if they are accurately calculated and aimed, due to inertia, unpredictable wind deflection and other factors, they will often deviate from the target landing point by hundreds of meters or even kilometers.

Dive bombing with good accuracy is difficult to use in mountainous areas, and it also faces the threat of large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns.

The cost-efficiency ratio is extremely low.

If radio can be used to manually control the bomb's fall point and correct the deviation, this bomb will simply revolutionize aerial bombing.

Zhao Gang was still surprised,
Why did Boss Lu provide a transport plane? It turned out to be like this.

"It's not that easy."

Li Yunlong added:
"This kind of bomb has very harsh conditions for use and has strict requirements on weather and terrain. If a precise hit is required, the operator needs to be guided in real time while on the ground."

"And the requirements for bomb guidance operators are very high, and it takes a long time to train to master it."

"Who are you going to let on?"

Zhao Gang asked.

Trouble for the operator is not a problem.

It's nothing more than increasing training and selecting good talents.

Boss Lu always has unlimited training fuel and training bombs!
"Wang Gensheng."

Li Yunlong spit out a name.

"This boy can indeed do it."

Zhao Gang also thought of Wang Gensheng.

As one of the best grenadiers in the independent regiment, Wang Gensheng, who had undergone systematic military training, showed amazing talent, especially in ballistics, ranking first in the army in ballistics.

Thinking about it, Wang Gensheng is qualified for this task.

Later, Zhao Gang picked up the transportation information for this cooperation.

"Twin-engine transport aircraft."

"Using a 2,600-horsepower turbocharged radial engine, it has an empty weight of ten tons, a maximum take-off weight of twenty-one tons, and when fully loaded with 5.5 tons of supplies, it can fly up to 700 kilometers away." "The highest level flight. Speed ​​​​550 kilometers per hour."

The aircraft information in Zhao Gang's hands at this time looks more like the American C46 transport aircraft from the appearance.

However, thanks to the system's 20 years of advanced material optimization, engine optimization, and structural optimization, the empty weight is only ten tons, which is nearly three tons lighter than the original version.

The engine power has also been increased from 2,000 horsepower to 2,600 horsepower.

Coupled with the optimization of aerodynamics and the five-blade propeller, the maximum horizontal flight speed is increased to 550 kilometers under light load.

Reliability is greatly improved.

"Good stuff!"

Zhao Gang admired it sincerely.

In his opinion, compared to 50 million silver dollars per month, these ten aircraft, for which Boss Lu will provide follow-up fuel, lubricants, spare parts, and assign experts to teach the independent regiment how to maintain and maintain them, are more valuable.

Although the take-off and landing conditions are much higher than those of a twin-engine transport aircraft, a high-quality airport runway is required to take off and land safely, and the taxiing distance is also relatively long.

But the full load of supplies increased to 6.5 tons.

A cross is sixty-five tons.

Based on the current Taiyue base area, equipped with two 120 mortars and a main regiment of people, this amount of materials will be consumed in a day of fierce fighting.

Taking into account factors such as aircraft maintenance, it means that the army currently has the ability to maintain a main force of 5,000 people, which is consumed in medium-intensity battles 700 kilometers away.

This kind of transport aircraft can also drop some supplies at low altitudes without an umbrella.

It also means that the army has the ability to provide certain logistical support to troops in emergency situations.

As for safety...
At present, the troops do not have fighter escort.

But the maximum horizontal flight speed is 550 kilometers, which is faster than any Japanese aircraft.

As long as the pilot is vigilant enough and does not give the Japanese plane a chance to approach from the side, there will be no danger.

As for fuel and spare parts, Boss Lu will continue to provide them free of charge during the service period of these ten transport aircrafts until the ten transport aircrafts are completely scrapped and can no longer be used.

"It's really good stuff."

Li Yunlong naturally also saw the role of these ten transport planes.

but,

The Independent Regiment left these ten transport planes, and the Independent Regiment still needed to complete this cooperation.

Subsequently, Li Yunlong sent someone to report the mission to the brigade headquarters - relying on the independent regiment, it was impossible to mobilize the strength of the Peking Review, so the old rules remained. This time, the headquarters must take the lead in this cooperation.

The cooperation stipulates that intelligence, logistics, etc. are not limited to independent group personnel.

of course,

It is also the old rule that those who directly participate in the operation must be members of the independent regiment.

···
at the same time.

"There is no need to change into new clothes. This time it is a real battlefield shot. Just let the soldiers arrange their clothes. The bullet holes do not need to be covered, they are directly exposed."

"Right, that is it."

"Where's the artillery?"

"Can that cannon be used for shooting?"

"Oh, then put the artillery in the center."

"You don't need to take a fighting stance, you can just sit on the cannon."

"Yes, yes, that's it, Commander Ding, you hold the Japanese command knife."

"Everybody started laughing."

Huting stronghold.

Lao Xia held the latest camera imported from the United States and guided the soldiers to take pictures.

The new group of soldiers were all very cooperative.

Ding Wei even sat on the barrel of the new anti-tank artillery, holding a newly captured Zuoguan knife in his hand, smiling triumphantly.

Surrounded by a new group of soldiers standing densely, some were wearing bandages, some had tattered military uniforms, and even had bullet holes, but everyone was smiling.

behind,

It is dilapidated, with only a small half of the Huya stronghold remaining.

The only remaining machine gun hole showed a broken crooked handle and a Japanese corpse lying at the mouth of the machine gun.

At the highest point of the most conspicuous dilapidated stronghold, the Rising Sun Flag of the stronghold fell crookedly to one side. Only a small part of it was burned. Black smoke slowly came out, and it seemed that it was still burning.

Next to this rising sun flag is the red flag of the Eighth Route Army fluttering in the wind.

The line of sight continued to expand around, and a long line of Japanese corpses could be seen.

"One piece!"

Press the shutter and the moment is frozen on the film.

And it won't be long before this photo will appear in Xinhua Newspaper and in the hands of people across the country.

···
The next day.

Headquarters.

"Going to Beiping?"

Qian Dayun, who received intelligence training at the headquarters, received his first mission.

Dress up as a businessman and go to Beiping,
Assist the local underground forces to assist in this combat mission.

"Yes, go to Beiping!"

This cooperation involves 50 million silver dollars per month and ten medium-sized twin-engine transport aircraft, so the Deputy General Staff personally assigned the task:

"Your task is to provide cover for the subsequent soldiers of the independent regiment to enter Beiping."

"Yes."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Qian Dayun stood at attention and saluted. (End of chapter)
