The picture pulls to Laibang Township.

The base of the Tiger Bentuan.

After the triumphant return from Huaining, the Tiger Bentuan once again entered the development mode.

In addition to allocating more than 300 horses to the cavalry company, Yang Jing also allocated more than 300 horses to the reconnaissance company to improve the mobility and reconnaissance efficiency of the reconnaissance company.

The remaining horses were evenly distributed among the rest of the battalions, and were freely distributed by the battalion commanders.

It is worth mentioning that Yang Jing did not know that the Tiger Ben Regiment had been exposed, and the Japanese army was planning to mobilize heavy troops to carry out encirclement and suppression of the Tiger Ben Regiment base area.

However, he had long expected this day, and with the development and growth of the Tiger Regiment, the Tiger Regiment's exposure was only a matter of time.

For this reason, he began to lay out the layout very early and expanded the intelligence network of the reconnaissance company.

Today, the intelligence network of the Tiger Ben Regiment has long spread to every county town around Yuexi, and even further away in important cities such as Anqing, Lu'an, and Hefei.

The purpose was to monitor the Japanese army's every move, so that in the future, when the Japanese army attempted to launch an attack on the Tiger Ben regiment, they could be prepared in advance to deal with it.

In addition, Yang Jing also received intelligence support from the New Fourth Army and the underground party.

It can be said that around Yuexi, once the Japanese army moved, Yang Jing could receive information as soon as possible.

……

As time passed, with the continuous production of the M2 Garand semi-automatic rifle and the T34-85 medium tank, the combat effectiveness of the Tiger Regiment was also increasing day by day.

The most important thing is that with Yang Jing's personal command, the control and understanding of tanks by the soldiers of the tank fighting vehicle company are also becoming more and more mature.

On this day, Ma Haifeng, the chief of staff in charge of the work of the arsenal, came with an excited face, bringing good news to Yang Jing.

That is, the first P51 Mustang fighter has been assembled.

After passing the inspection and completing the test flight, it can be mass-produced.

This fighter is the pinnacle of piston fighters.

Before the advent of jet fighters, the P51 Mustang fighter can be said to be invincible all over the world.

In the early stage of World War II, the Japanese Zero fighter and the German BF109 fighter were almost completely beaten by the Mustang fighter in terms of range and other aspects of performance.

However, although this fighter is powerful, another headache is in front of us.

That is, fighter jets are different from helicopters, whether they take off or land, they need a professional runway.

If the airfield and runway are built now, then the base of the Tiger Ben Regiment will not be far from being exposed.

And if the airfield and runway are not built, the plan to establish an aviation flight company will be postponed again.

So, Yang Jing immediately held a simple meeting on this issue.

After some heated discussions, in the end, the top management of the Tiger Ben regiment unanimously decided to build an airport and runway immediately.

Because they all suffered from Japanese fighters and bombers, and they all desperately wanted to have their own air force.

In this way, on the frontal battlefield, no matter what terrain, the Tiger Regiment will no longer be afraid of the Japanese army.

The next step is to choose the location of the airport.

Regarding this point, Yang Jing had prepared for a long time, his sharp eyes looked around, and said: "The plan to build the airport and runway has been finalized, so now I will talk about the selection of the site." ”

As he spoke, Yang Jing slowly stood up, picked up a baton, walked straight to the wall, pointed to a point on the map and said, "I plan to build the airport in Changliu Village, I don't know what you think?" ”

Chief of Staff Ma Haifeng walked over and looked at it, frowned slightly, and said: "Tuanzao, although our arsenal is in the mountains, there is not a site for building an airport nearby.

You built the airport in Changliu Village, isn't it a little too far?

Changliu Village is nearly 30 miles away from our arsenal, and it is not a simple matter to transport the assembled fighter jets over this distance. ”

Yang Jing nodded and said, "I've also thought about this question you said.

So, next I plan to move the production hall of the P51 Mustang fighter from the arsenal to the airport. ”

After a pause, Yang Jing continued: "The reason why I didn't make this choice at the beginning was because I wasn't sure how long it would take for this fighter to be developed.

And once the airport is built, then it will not be far from our exposure.

Before our strength has grown to a certain extent, this choice is undoubtedly very undesirable.

But now, the battalions are basically equipped with M2 Garand semi-automatic rifles, and we already have our own arsenal, so we don't have to worry about ammunition supply at all.

This has made a qualitative leap in the combat effectiveness of our Tiger Regiment.

The establishment of the tank tank tank company and the equipment of the T34-85 medium tank made us no longer afraid of the modern mechanical units of the Japanese army on the frontal battlefield.

As long as the Japanese army dares to attack, they will definitely be able to make it impossible for them to come back! ”

"However, in order to prevent Japanese air raids, we need to build as many anti-aircraft radars, anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine gun positions as possible around the airfield and even on the higher ground further away before the construction of the airfield to ensure the absolute safety of the airfield!"

Bi Yuntao was a little confused, and said suspiciously: "We know the regimental seat, anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, but what is this air defense radar?" ”

Anti-aircraft radar was first used by the British in World War II, during the Battle of Great Britain in August 1940, to warn the Luftwaffe.

Although this concept was proposed by scientists as early as 1935, Biyuntao obviously did not know it.

It's no surprise that this question is asked.

Yang Jing said with a smile: "The air defense radar is an advanced equipment that can give early warning to enemy fighters.

Combined with the use of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, it can greatly improve the killing efficiency. ”

"So powerful?"

Bi Yuntao, as well as everyone present, were stunned with surprise.

Yang Jing said disapprerovingly: "Do you know why I dare to confidently say that the P51 Mustang fighter is the most advanced fighter in the world today?" ”

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Yang Jing asked and replied to himself: "That's because, in addition to the fact that the performance of the P51 Mustang fighter is far more advanced than any fighter in the world, I have also applied air defense radar to this fighter." ”

"Any idea what that means?"

"This means that once our P51 field fighter encounters a Japanese fighter in the air, it will be a contest between a normal man and a blind man."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp and were stunned.

looked at Yang Jing's gaze like looking at a strange person.

As for why Yang Jing was able to have an air defense radar, of course, it was in the previous battle, and the devil killer exploded.
