Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Taiyuan, Wusu Airport.

 Today is the day when the tiger in the forest and the king of liver fire set out for the eastern coast. Accompanying the two of them were hundreds of medium and large transport aircraft, which carried a sufficient amount and a wide variety of supplies.

Considering that this voyage will pass through enemy-occupied areas, the headquarters also dispatched heavy fighter jets from the First Air Division to **** the entire journey.

“This transport plane is really good, it is indeed a good thing.”

“When our strategy shifted back then, if the army had dozens of medium and large transport aircraft, the casualties among our comrades would have been much smaller.”

After speaking, the tiger in the forest caressed the fuselage of the sky train, with a look of emotion on its face.

The mood of everyone present also became a little low. Everyone has experienced that difficult and special period, and can naturally understand the sadness in the sentence just now.

Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit heavy, the deputy general staff officer patted his friend's shoulder and said to smooth things over:

 “When you get there, you must”

 At this point, he suddenly stopped.

 Originally, the deputy general staff officer wanted to say some sensational words. After all, the two of them had been working together since the strategic shift. One served as the chief of staff and the other was the corps commander. They had a very close relationship.

Now the old comrades have to go to the eastern coast hundreds of kilometers away to cooperate with the Air Force to complete a high-intensity and difficult strategic bombing. This task is not generally complicated.

As the big brother, I have to give some advice no matter what.

 But after thinking about it carefully, the deputy general staff member took back his previous idea.

 What age is this?

 Large battles were very difficult, that was a thing of the past.

Now?

With the natural resources and manpower reserves in the Qilu area, plus the weapons and equipment sent by the headquarters, the Twelfth Army's Tuqiao is the one who should be afraid.

  After all, the old Japanese only had three divisions and four independent mixed brigades available.

 In a real fight, Benzi is the disadvantaged side.

What's more, after the two sides fight, the Air Force can send hundreds of transport aircraft to take care of logistics.

 This means that in the early stages of the war, our side can obtain nearly a thousand tons of material supplies every day.

 With such logistical support and a highly morale-filled army, what else do I have to worry about?

 So, the last words of the deputy general staff officer were:

“After you get there, you must listen to the doctor’s advice and pay attention to your body and health. You should also eat less seafood, as it can easily cause old injuries.”

As if he had figured out the thoughts of his old comrade, the tiger in the forest immediately laughed out loud.

“Haha, I know! Just wait for my good news. I will try to end the battle before September. Then we will go see Baotu Spring together!”

 In a pleasant atmosphere, Comrade Yongjian and King Ganhuo boarded the sky train.

 After watching the transport plane take off, the deputy general staff officer and his team also left Wusu Airport one after another. The headquarters is currently very busy with work, and it is their limit to be able to spare some time.

  ·······

 After more than an hour of long-distance flight, the **** crew and transport aircraft formation successfully landed at the Yongbi Airport built by the 115th Division.

After the comrades walked out of the hatch one after another, the military saint was escorted by the guards to the apron, and then held Principal Chang's hand with a happy face.

“Lao Chang, thank you for your hard work.”

“It’s still the same old rules, I asked the cooking team to make noodles, you can go and have a rest after eating.”

“As for unloading, just leave it to the soldiers in the division’s logistics office. They are all experienced veterans and will never make any mistakes.”

  Throughout 1941, in addition to training pilots for the troops at the aviation school, Principal Chang often led transport aircraft formations to and from the border areas and base areas.

 It is precisely because of their silent dedication and hard work that soldiers everywhere are able to use advanced weapons and equipment and have a reliable air supply line.

 The concern from old friends made Principal Chang smile.

 But unlike before, he first rejected 102’s proposal, and then patiently explained:

“Let’s talk about eating and resting later. I have to help the ground crew complete the preparations first.”

"The task force of the formation is a bit heavy today, and we have to make a round trip next. The headquarters asked us to go back early and transport the second batch of supplies to your division headquarters before the sun sets."

 Compared with a year ago, the efficiency of the Air Force has been significantly improved whether it is sending people or transporting goods.

  In the past, when performing long-distance missions, due to the short legs of **** fighter jets and the threat of Japanese army aviation, comrades had to stop at base areas along the way, and it would take two days for more than 600 kilometers. Now?

The Japanese army aviation in North China has long been wiped out, and they have to take a detour when they see the Eighth Route Army's fighter planes.

Twin-engine heavy fighter jets and medium and large transport aircraft, coupled with radar and mature radio technology, give the Air Force the ability to fly point-to-point long distances across the country.

If the physical strength of the pilots were not considered, it would not be difficult to fly three round trips in one day.

Hearing this, the saint in the army nodded. Anyway, the old comrades will come back later, and there will be plenty of time to reminisce about the past.

"By the way, where are our division commander and Xiao Liu? Why didn't we see them? Didn't the telegram from the headquarters say that Lin and Liu would come with the transport formation?"

As soon as these words came out, Principal Chang's expression immediately became a little strange. He pointed at the sky train behind him, as if he thought of some interesting scene.

“Chief of Staff Liu was airsick the whole time and should rest in the belly of the plane now.”

“And on the way, he even vomited on his leather shoes, and he will most likely have to clean them before he comes out.”

"I'm not sure about Mr. Lin's situation. You'd better ask yourself later. His face looked ugly after getting on the plane. I don't know if he has witnessed any air crash before."

 Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

Just when Principal Chang was chatting with the military sage about Lin and Liu, a man with an inverted eyebrow and a man in black leather clothes came out holding the hatch.

"Lao Luo, you don't know LYL's rules. Look at him vomiting like this. He has to polish his leather shoes first, and things like washing his face become secondary."

“Being decent but not paying attention to appearance is the fine tradition of the Frunze Military Academy.”

After complaining to his old comrade, the tiger in the forest slapped 103 on the back again, and then pretended to be fierce and said:

“You kid will fly more often in the future and get used to this bumpy feeling. If you still vomit like this in the future, don’t mention anything about being the top leader of the Air Force.”

"Hahaha."

After a brief exchange of greetings, 01, 02, and 03, escorted by the guard platoon, took a bus to the division headquarters. The three of them were all hard-working people and went straight to the war conference room after arriving at their destination.

Looking at the military map hanging on the wall, the Tiger in the Forest’s iconic inverted broomstick frowned slightly and said with a hint of dissatisfaction:

"It seems that the work in this area is a bit complicated. No wonder the deputy commander-in-chief and deputy general staff sent me over to take care of the situation. Our time is limited, and the merger must be completed within the next month."

"Here, here is the appointment letter from the headquarters. You will have to worry more about political affairs in the future."

 Across Qilu, there are two armed forces of the Eighth Route Army, namely the column and the 115th Division. Both of them have strong soldiers and horses, and they only need to wait for the right time to launch a general attack on the Japanese.

Of course, there must be a certain problem, that is, the relationship between the two parties is not too close, and it is quite scattered.

 This time, the reason why the border region and the headquarters transferred the Tiger in the Forest is very simple, that is, they want it to be paired with the Saint in the army to complete the establishment of the new military region.

 As the commander of the 115th Division, he is naturally comfortable commanding the old troops.

 As for the column?

Who wouldn’t like a veteran military commander with a record of success and qualifications?

After receiving the letter of appointment from the commander, the military saint showed a very curious expression. He looked at Lin and Liu and said:

“You should have met Director Huang, he is really a magical person.”

“If it hadn’t been for his suggestion, Lao Zhu would not have gone to the artillery academy at the headquarters, and Lao Xu would not have led his troops south to open up new bases in Henan Province.”

“I don’t know if he did it intentionally or if it was self-defeating. I will definitely ask him in person if I have the chance.”

As soon as these words came out, a confident face appeared in the minds of the tiger in the forest and the king of anger. Thinking of Huang He's past work style and habits, they all suspected that this was another rainy day arrangement.

 In fact, the two people's ideas were correct. Huang did reveal his thoughts to the border area in the first week before setting off for Suiyuan.

 The Qilu area is a treasure land. It not only has long sunshine hours, but also has abundant annual rainfall, which is very suitable for the growth of various crops.

 Coupled with gold mines and coal-producing areas, the army can be completely self-sufficient in economic terms.

 Except for a certain runaway general named Han, it is estimated that no force would ignore such an important place.

In Huanghe’s plan, if the saints in the army could be allowed to detonate troops here early and let the tigers in the forest take charge of the battle, I really don’t know how beautiful the scene would be.

Well, it’s time to show Benzi and Baldhead the strength of the combination of 01, 02 and 03! (End of chapter)
