Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli didn't know what kind of perseverance Liu Cuigang used to return to the Kulun Field Field Airport with his seriously injured body in the middle of the fighter plane.

Tang Qiuli didn't know why Liu Cuigang had to fly the plane back. He could choose to parachute, which would be safer. Once he passed out in the air due to excessive blood loss, the fighter plane would only fall down, and the plane would be destroyed.

Tang Qiuli walked to the stretcher, looked at Liu Cuigang who was still awake, and said with a little blame: "Cuigang, why did you do this? Do you know the consequences?"

Liu Cuigang's face was pale, and he said in a weak voice: "Master, please forgive me for making you worry. It's not for other reasons. For the honor of the aviation force, I don't want the Soviets to make a big deal out of their newspapers. The fighter plane of the supreme commander of the flying group was shot down, it's that simple!"

Tang Qiuli waved his hand, put the stretcher into the ambulance, and followed him all the way, watching him into the operating room. Although Liu Cuigang's words were brief, he was shocked strongly, "For the honor of the aviation soldiers!" It's easy to say , it is very difficult to do, you need to use your life to defend this honor, it is a soldier's oath! [

Tang Qiuli understood Liu Cuigang's approach. He represented the military power of the Northern Aviation Group. The same thing happened to Le Yiqin, and he would make the same choice. The enemy had reasons for propaganda and making use of the topic. Tang Qiuli's eyes were moist, and his heart was infected by a different emotion.

While waiting anxiously outside the operating room, Colonel Wang Jun, chief of staff of the Outer Mongolian Frontier Defense Army, sent another telegram, from Meng Chaoxu, the chief of the combat department at the front, about the news that Commander Sun Zhenbang was seriously injured.

Tang Qiuli's emotions.All of a sudden, it was extremely bad, and he asked himself, "What happened to this war? Before a large-scale battle occurred, two generals fell one after another, first Liu Cuigang, and then Sun Zhenbang," he secretly felt ruthless, the Soviet Transcaucasus The troops of the military region must be completely wiped out, and the troops must also destroy the land of the Soviet Union in the East.Take them all.

After returning to the temporary headquarters, Colonel Meng Qingpeng, the commander of the Outer Mongolia cruise area of ​​the Northern Flying Group, was already waiting for him in the room. Wang Jun gave him a wink.It means to tell him, to make a long story short, to be concise and to the point, the teacher is in a bad mood.

After Tang Qiuli sat down, he said unceremoniously, "Qingpeng, report on the situation of today's air battle. And the loss of the Northern Flying Group troops!"

Meng Qingpeng said: "It's the division commander. In terms of scale, today's air battle has the nature of a decisive battle. Our troops dispatched all fighter regiments. The air battle lasted for more than two hours, and a total of more than 470 Soviet fighter jets were shot down and injured. They shot down more than 120 bombers, and the Air Force of the Transcaucasus Military District of the Soviet Union suffered heavy losses. The frontier troops of Outer Mongolia were not bombed by Soviet bombers at their positions on the Selenge River.”

Speaking of this, Meng Qingpeng's tone became a little low. "Master, our losses are relatively large. 210 fighter jets were shot down, 130 four were injured, and 87 pilots were killed. The rest all parachuted. The parachuting area is in our army's control area and has been rescued. Now, Has returned to the army, the battle loss ratio of the Soviet army and our army is [-] to [-]."

"Master, our Northern Flying Group did not fight well this time. I reviewed it and found that the troops suffered a lot, especially Commander Liu was seriously injured. This is the biggest loss for our flying group. There are more than 450 fighter jets that can take off to fight normally, and the bomber force basically has no losses. The pilots are more irritable and eager to retaliate, and this is the situation!"

"In addition, I ask the teacher to punish me!" When he said the last sentence, Meng Qingpeng's expression was very serious. To be precise, he blamed himself. Liu Cuigang was injured. Meng Qingpeng felt more guilty than anyone else. He always believed that it was his own responsibility. .

Tang Qiuli's cheeks twitched slightly, feeling distressed. After more than two hours of air combat, nearly six regiments of fighter jets were lost. The aircraft can be remanufactured. The Dingbian Arsenal can manufacture aircraft in large quantities, or buy them again. With real money in his hand, he didn't worry about not being able to buy an airplane. Hitler, the head of state of Germany, could open up to supply himself. What he loved most was the 87 pilots who died in battle.

Independent divisions do not worry about aircraft, but pilots are very expensive. There are only more than 130 students who graduated from Dingbian Flight Academy, and all of them are supplemented by the Northern Aviation Group. However, these students need time and actual combat to be able to fly. Form combat power.

"Could it be that I was overly optimistic about this air battle with the nature of a decisive battle, or that I underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Soviet pilots? From myself to Liu Cuigang to all the pilots of the Northern Flying Group, they all have the idea of ​​​​underestimating the enemy. ? " Tang Qiuli thought to himself.

The biggest problem at present is that Liu Cuigang is seriously injured. The leader of the Northern Flying Group lacks an experienced and powerful commander. Meng Qingpeng is a little immature and cannot bear this burden. Next, the Soviet Army will definitely strengthen The power of the air force is to seize air supremacy. The Soviet generals are not fools. They are used to commanding large mechanized corps to fight. battlefield.

Tang Qiuli shook his head, got rid of his inner thoughts, and said to Meng Qingpeng: "Qingpeng, don't be too busy reviewing and punishing, it is not your responsibility. The most important thing at present is to appease the emotions of the pilots and summarize the situation in the battle. The experience, lessons and achievements of the Soviet Army, find out the weaknesses of the Soviet pilots, so as to facilitate the next battle!"

"After this war, the Soviet Air Force has been severely injured. It has already been injured. In the near future, there will be no air battles. After you go back, reorganize the troops and form several fighter regiments, not to say The number should be cancelled, and the troops should be concentrated. This point must be made clear to the commanders of the fighter regiments, so as not to cause confusion in the troops. Qingpeng, before Commander Le arrives, you must take control of the troops!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand wearily, and Meng Qingpeng saluted and left. Tang Qiuli said to Wang Jun, "Chief of Staff Wang, immediately send a telegram to Le Yiqin, ordering him to arrive in Outer Mongolia ahead of the Southern Flying Group troops." , Liu Cuigang was injured, the leader of the Northern Flying Group, and he is needed to sit in charge!"

Wang Jun went out to send a telegram. Tang Qiuli called a staff officer in and ordered, "Call Director Shen of the Investigation Division, Director of the Intelligence Department, Captain Chutian of the Special Warfare Detachment, and Commander Tong Batu of the Second Cavalry Brigade." Call, let them come to the command post immediately!"

Ten minutes later, Yu Deshui and Shen Jun came together. As soon as they entered the room, they found that the teacher looked very tired. Some, however, were busy arranging the arrest operation tonight, and didn't pay too much attention to it. Now, the teacher suddenly asked him to come, is there any important thing to explain?

Therefore, Yu Deshui and Shen Jun secretly guessed the intention of the teacher's sudden summoning. Without disturbing Tang Qiuli who was in deep thought, they found a chair and sat down, waiting for the teacher quietly. They didn't know that Chu Tian and Tong Ba Figure, also received the same call. [

Tang Qiuli raised his head, glanced at the heads of the two powerful departments of the Independent Division, and did not speak. However, Yu Deshui and Shen Jun saw too much content from the teacher's glance. How should I say it? , Murderous intent, murderous intent that cannot be concealed!

There was a rush of horseshoes outside the gate of the courtyard. You don't need to look to know that Tong Batu, the commander of the Second Cavalry Brigade, must have arrived. Military jeeps only have cavalry units, and they stubbornly use horses, especially Tong Batu, who doesn’t like the smell of gasoline. In his words, “Jeeps, sitting on their buttocks, smelling nausea, how could they The horses are comfortable, cross the ditch and the river, and you will be there!"

In the corridor, the sound of riding boots stepping on the ground was heard, and Tong Batu shouted loudly at the door: "Report to the division commander, Tong Batu, the commander of the First Cavalry Brigade of the Outer Mongolia Frontier Defense Army, has been ordered to come!"

It is strange to say that Tong Batu's yelling so loudly dilutes the somewhat frozen atmosphere in the room, and there is a fresh breath in it. Tang Qiuli showed a little smile on his face and shouted: "It's Tong Lv Long, come in!"

After Tong Batu came in, Cu Lun, who was somewhat surprised, glanced at Deshui and Shen Jun, said hello and sat down. Just as Tong Batu sat down, there was another report outside the room: "Report to the commander, the special warfare detachment The detachment leader Chu Tian was ordered to come!"

Hearing Chutian's voice, Yu Deshui, Shen Jun, and Tong Batu all understood that the purpose of the teacher's late-night summoning, including Chutian, was the person in charge of arresting separatists throughout Outer Mongolia. Temporary meeting, related to the action in the early hours of tomorrow.

After Chutian came in, Tang Qiu left the door and said straight to the point: "Everyone is here. To make a long story short, the battle was fierce on the Selenge River front. Sun Zhenbang, the commander of the Outer Mongolia Frontier Defense Army, was seriously injured, and Liu Cuigang, the commander of the Northern Aviation Group of the Air Force, was seriously injured." Seriously wounded and still in a coma, this is something that has never happened in previous battles, including fighting with the Japanese army, and there has never been a situation in which two commanders were seriously injured in a battle!"

"I called the four of you temporarily here today for the arrest operation in the early morning of tomorrow. I will not interfere with the specific deployment. I will only tell you that none of the people on the list can slip through the net. I would rather be caught by mistake. Don't let it go, Stalin dared to send troops to Outer Mongolia, and the separatists were there to respond inside, which is the decisive factor!"

"The internal troubles are not eliminated. On Yongning Day in Outer Mongolia, even if blood is spilled all over the grassland, I will bear the infamy of this executioner!"
