Chapter 1217: Zhou Lei's Hope
At noon that day, the cavalry troops and transport air force units led by Tang Jian arrived almost at the same time, almost 30,000 cavalry, plus the previous 30,000, 60,000 cavalry and the main force of the air force should be able to withstand the crazy counterattack of the Wanliu Empire, Yuan Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered Makino Kumaji to lead the air force under his command to the northeast to solve the last air base of the Wanliu Empire over there, their task is not to destroy the base, but to eliminate the Wanliu Air Force there, according to intelligence, there are almost two hundred airships stationed there, The number of airships under the command of Makino Xiong Er is comparable, and the victory or defeat is unknown, of course, Makino Xiong Er is bent on obedience, Yuan Fang is not unable to see it, and he can't do too much, so he transferred the twenty fighters who supported other fronts before to assist, and at the same time, send someone to inform the Wen'an Empire of the battle situation here, Yuan Fang believes that once the Wen'an Empire learns of the Dongsheng Empire's victory, it will definitely send troops to cooperate, in that way, Makino Xiong Er They are not two hundred against two hundred, plus the Wen'an Empire's air force and twenty fighters, It shouldn't be difficult to solve the last air base of the Wanliu Empire in the Northern Continent, as for the Yuanhe Empire that retreated to the east, Yuan Fang planned to wait and talk about it first, wait until the main force arrives and then have a good rest, and wait until everyone has enough spirit before going to find trouble with the Yuanhe Empire.
Soon after Kumaji Makino set off with the Ryusang Air Force, Yukikoto's main air force also left the base after being replenished and flew to the southeast, their task was relatively easy, which was to find and destroy the air force airships of the Yuanhe Empire. According to Makino Kumaji, the Wanliu Empire did give the Yuanhe Empire more than 200 less than 300 airships, which were also all of their air force.
Three hundred airships are nothing to the current Xueqin, after a few battles, Yuan Fang has determined that the fighter is powerful, and there is no problem with one enemy and ten, let alone one against five, and the pilots on the other side are all rookies who have never been on the battlefield.
Xueqin left, the air defense of the base fell on the pilots who had just arrived, most of these pilots were from the Air Force Academy, and a small part of them belonged to the regular air force under the command of Yu Qing, these pilots just arrived at the base and received an order, each of them selected the airship, and took off after replacing the mark of the Dongsheng Empire, regardless of the consumption of fog and stones, as soon as possible to familiarize themselves with the operation and performance of these airships of the Wanliu Empire, with these more than 300 airships, the air defense of the base is as solid as a rock, even if the Wanliu Empire gathers all its forces to counterattack, it will not help.
In the evening of the same day, Shi Ping's main force rushed to the transit base, and the soldiers were already tired from the continuous journey, so they arrived at the periphery of the base and camped there, and immediately rested after dinner. Yuan Fang was very puzzled, the Wanliu Empire should fight back, but more than a day had passed and the other party had not been seen for a long time, could they just give up? Give up so much of the supplies.
If the Wanliu Empire does not come, Yuan Fang is also happy to be idle, just so that the soldiers can rest and rest, maintain sufficient physical strength and fighting spirit to face the next battle.
The transport airship formation ran twice, and only transported a small part of the grain, Yuan Fang's plan was to transport most of the fine grain, leaving a small half as a supply for the army, this matter was learned by Zhou Lei and immediately anxious, the same day by transport boat to come, and Yuan Fang had a detailed discussion, Yuan Fang knew how much mistake he had made, immediately stopped the transportation, but first distributed a part of the grain and grass to the troops, and then the remaining half was placed in the base warehouse for transit.
Zhou Lei was very angry when he came, he racked his brains to find a way to transport a lot of grain and grass to the front line, and Yuan Fang was good, he actually wanted to send so much grain back to China, the two went in completely opposite directions, and it disrupted Zhou Lei's scheduling plan, and what could Yuan Fang do after transporting these grains back? Zhou Lei still has to rack his brains to find a way to send it to the front line, not to mention the waste of transportation costs, it is also likely to delay the progress, and the soldiers on the front line are hungry and can't fight.
Yuan Fang knew that he was two pounds, leading troops to fight was a half-ass, and the logistics coordinator was even more of a layman, and was reprimanded by Zhou Lei, Yuan Fang was not angry, he admitted his mistake and tried to make up for it, Zhou Lei saw that Yuan Fang's attitude was sincere, and his anger had long since disappeared, and the two chatted for a while Zhou Lei said goodbye and left, as the chief logistics officer, he was really busy, especially during the period when the large army was advancing rapidly.
Yuan Fang personally sent Zhou Lei to the airport, and before leaving, Yuan Fang secretly asked Zhou Lei: "How are your hands?" Do you want to treat it? I recently came up with a solution, even if it can't get you back to the same as before, but there is still some certainty, how about it? Do you want to try it? ”
Zhou Lei's eyes lit up, he looked at his left hand, and said with a smile: "That's a good feeling, when the war is over, I will go to the military hospital to find you, and you don't admit it when the time comes." ”
Yuan Fang smiled and handed Zhou Lei a list and said: "You are in charge of logistics, you are good at procurement, you know better than me what there is, there are some relatively rare medicinal materials on it, if you know where there are, you can help collect more, uh, no, the more the better, I will not refuse to come." ”
Zhou Lei glanced at the medicinal materials on the list, frowned and said: "I said, these herbs are not common things, especially a few of them are very expensive, and they cost one or two hundred taels of silver, are you sure that the more the better?" Yuan Fang nodded affirmatively.
Zhou Lei didn't ask what these herbs were for, he stretched out his hand and said, "Okay, I'll help you keep an eye on it, bring it." ”
Yuan Fang was stunned: "What? ”
Zhou Lei was angry and said: "Silver, if you don't give me silver, how can I buy things from others?" You can't grab it, can you? ”
Yuan Fang scratched his head in embarrassment: "How can I have any money, in this way, you send someone to the military hospital to find Brother Qin, how much do you need to ask him." ”
Zhou Lei pouted and said: "I said that you can be regarded as a big man in our Dongsheng Empire second only to Your Majesty, I heard that you still owe a lot of silver outside, I wondered, why are you so miserable." ”
Yuan Fang gritted his teeth and said, "Who said that big people must be rich?" My money has been spent in the right place, okay, less nonsense, hurry up and help me get medicinal herbs, tell you, these medicinal materials can be configured with a kind of ointment, and the reason why I have seventy or eighty percent of the wound on your left hand is because of it. ”
Zhou Lei took out the list in surprise and looked at it again: "Then you are not afraid that I will steal learning, this thing should be very valuable, right?" ”
Yuan Fang pouted and said: "This is just a list, the medicinal materials needed for that kind of ointment are only a part of it, it is useless for you to stay, besides, even if I give you the prescription, will you be able to learn it?" Don't talk about you, even if Doctor Ye has no one to guide you. ”
