Li Jiansheng led a battalion of spies, and the rest of the soldiers took advantage of the night to rush back. Although they were all excited, the soldiers were silent, but people were in good spirits on happy occasions, and they fought a tough battle for more than an hour, and the harvest was so big, everyone didn't feel tired, and they hurried all night. Because all the cavalry that came with Li Jiansheng this time were cavalry, by the time the Japanese completely figured out what was going on, the victorious division was already more than 200 kilometers away. On the way, Li Jiansheng specially asked the dispatcher to send a telegram to Zeng Zhongsheng to inform him of the results of the battle. Zeng Zhongsheng got the telegram and was overjoyed. When he sighed again at Li Jiansheng's genius pen, he vigorously urged the soldiers of the engineer regiment.

Not to mention that Li Jiansheng's unit was already on the road to victory, but it was said that Chu Gaoping led 24 fighters and returned according to the usual education curriculum. In fact, when it comes to this educational course, they really don't learn much. You know, 100 fighters, only one plane, each person flying time is too short. Although all of them were selected this time, the most was only more than 10 hours. However, these people all have one thing in common: they are not afraid of death! As a result, this time it all worked. As a result, these "soil buns", relying on the Polaris orientation method taught by Li Jiansheng on the spot, actually formed a formation in the air and flew in the direction of Yan'an. Fortunately, Zeng Zhongsheng reported to Li Jiansheng's battle report to Zhou Weiren and Zhu Weiren in time. The two immediately reported to Mao Weiren. Mao Weiren had just rested at that time, and Vice Chairman Zhizhou and Commander-in-Chief Zhu jointly reported that it was a major event and immediately got up. As soon as he saw the battle report, he slapped the table heavily and said with a smile: "Okay! Tiger General! The first battle is successful! ”

I also read that the telegram said that it was expected that a group of planes would enter the base area in a few hours, and all of them would be captured. In the end, it was confirmed by Commander-in-Chief Zhu and the troops along the line, telling them that these planes were captured by the 125th Division, and that they should not be shot down, and there was no need to panic. Zhou Weiren immediately organized a team to assist the 125th Division Engineer Regiment in repairing the flying field and preparing to pick up the plane. In addition, starting from entering the base area, it is necessary to organize the militia to wave red flags to form arrows to guide the direction of the shutdown. Smoke guidance around the tarmac.

The parties acted immediately.

Nearly four hours later, the fleet had arrived near Yan'an. Under the command of Zhou Weiren and Zeng Zhongsheng, the planes landed one after another. How else to say that there is strength in numbers? The engineering regiment of Zeng Zhongsheng's headquarters hurried to catch up, and together with the temporarily organized troops and militia, the airfield and hangar were soon built. When the last plane stopped, Chu Gaoping led the queue to report to Zeng Zhongsheng, chief of staff of the division, and Zeng Zhongsheng reported to Zhou Weiren that all 24 bombers had been included in the ranks, and all the team members had arrived safely!

There was thunderous applause around the airport! Including many people who got the news or came to see the excitement, they all applauded desperately at this time! From today onwards, we also have airplanes!

Next, Zeng Zhongsheng and Chu Gaoping immediately began to arrange personnel to protect the bombers and transfer them to the temporarily built hangar. Zeng Zhongsheng relayed the division commander's order to Chu Gaoping:

Of these 24 bombers, 6 of which were converted into transport aircraft, were placed at the disposal of the airborne detachment. One was handed over to the Academy of Military Sciences and the Weapons Research Institute, which were to be shared by them, mainly to let him thoroughly study these aircraft, train talents, and make a talent reserve for the next stage of his own production of aircraft. 1 was handed over to the supplementary brigade, mainly for the training of recruits. Another 16 bombers, still in use by the air destroyer detachment. The air destroyer detachment is required to train as many pilots as possible, and in addition to bombers, it is also necessary to train fighter pilots! It is necessary to make solid preparations for the next stage of the big battle.

Chu Gaoping saluted and responded loudly.

Li Zhi, the head of the airborne detachment who returned to Yan'an with Zeng Zhongsheng, was looking at the plane that Chu Gaoping had gotten over, and he only felt that there was something wrong with the old chief who didn't call him for such a good action, and he was planning to report to the old chief the next day and lead the team to get a few planes. Unexpectedly, the chief of staff ordered him to take over 8 of them immediately, and he was surprised at the moment. Fortunately, he was Li Jiansheng's personal guard, and his reaction was superb, so he saluted and responded loudly.

Not to mention that Zeng Zhongsheng was arranging the air annihilation detachment and the airborne detachment, but it was said that Zhou Weiren had confirmed the achievements of the 125th Division and had just arrived at the gate of Mao Weiren's courtyard. The confidential secretary sent another document, but it was another good news, this time it was sent by the 115th Division, and Pingxingguan was a great victory!

As in the official history, on September 25, 1937, at Pingxingguan, Lingqiu County, Datong City, Shanxi Province, under the command of the commander of the 115th Division, Lin Division, and political commissar Nie Rongzhen, a successful ambush battle was carried out against the Japanese army for the first time by concentrating large forces. At about 7 o'clock on the same day, all the follow-up units of the 21st Brigade of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army (Itagaki Division) entered the ambush area, and the ambush troops of the Eighth Route Army were condescending and quickly launched a fierce attack on the enemy, which immediately disrupted the command system of the Japanese army. At this time, our soldiers bravely rushed to the highway to divide and encircle the enemy, and the two sides launched hand-to-hand combat with hand-to-hand combat. After a day of fierce fighting, the Eighth Route Army won the Battle of Pingxingguan.

Mao Weiren's mood is not ordinarily good. September 25, 1937 was destined to be the Eighth Route Army and a day for the Chinese nation to raise its eyebrows. On this day, two successive battle reports were issued, one was the great victory of the 125th Division at Yangmingbao Airport, which completely annihilated more than 180 Japanese defenders and captured 24 aircraft; In this battle, the Eighth Route Army killed more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers, destroyed more than 100 cars, more than 200 carriages, captured more than 1,000 rifles, more than 20 machine guns, 1 artillery, and a large number of military supplies!

These were the two great victories won by our Chinese army since the beginning of the National War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. The Eighth Route Army won the first battle, and won successive battles, which effectively dealt a blow to the madness of the Japanese army and broke the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese army! Mao Weiren has reason to believe that this will greatly boost the people's morale and make the people of the whole country see the hope of the Chinese nation!

On September 28, Li Jiansheng, who was still on his way back, received a report from the headquarters of two great victories, namely, the victory of the 125th Division at Yangmingbao and the victory at Pingxingguan of the 115th Division. The cadres and fighters of the 120th Division, the 129th Division, the Independent Division, the Instructors, the Garrison Division, the Security Division, and the New Fourth Army, who were looking for fighters in various places, were greatly encouraged and flew to the division headquarters like snowflakes in letters of war and determination. As for the 115th and 125th Divisions, as well as the common people near the Yan'an headquarters, they even set off firecrackers and twisted Yangge.

However, it was said that after the commander of the 115th Division received the report of the victory of the 125th Division at Yangmingbao, he just sighed that he had fought well and fought skillfully. According to his deduction, if he goes to attack Yangmingbao, it is estimated that he will only blow up all these planes, how can he think that he can steal them all? Of course, at the moment, only his 125th Division has such a staffing allocation. I can't say, this division commander Li Jiansheng is afraid that he has been prepared for a long time, otherwise how can there be so many soldiers who can fly planes? It seems that the 115th Division should also make preparations in this regard. As for the near-zero casualty rate, I can't see that this division commander Li really has two hits......

Not to mention the sigh of Division Commander Lin, but when Li Jiansheng saw the battle report of the 115th Division's victory at Pingxingguan from the headquarters, he gasped: In this battle, our 115th Division chose favorable terrain to set up an ambush, and annihilated more than 1,500 enemies, none of them missed the net, none of them were captured, and our army suffered more than 1,200 casualties.

In Li Jiansheng's impression, a small number of enemies had escaped from the Pingxingguan ambush in history, and none of them escaped this time. That's a highlight. It shows that the strength and firepower of the 115th Division today are much higher than those of the 115th Division in history, and that is still effective. However, with such good terrain and such a powerful force and firepower of the 115th Division, the casualties were still so large, and it is estimated that this tactic is still debatable. Of course, this side also shows that the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Division is not ordinarily strong, and if they are allowed to deploy their forces and attack under the cover of firepower, the casualties of the 115th Division may be even greater.

Sure enough, as Li Jiansheng speculated, the headquarters soon sent another analysis of Mao Weiren's battle, in which Mao Weiren believed that we could not resist the army head-on, and we must carry out our good mountain guerrilla warfare and night sneak attack warfare. One of the important reasons for the two great victories, one with a high casualty rate and the other with close to zero casualties, is that the former did not use our specialty of mountain guerrilla warfare, but used white-knuckle hand-to-hand combat in mountain ambush warfare, while the latter used night sneak warfare. This battle loss ratio comes out. In his analysis of the battle report, Mao Weiren affirmed the strategic significance of the great victory at Pingxingguan, but he still believed that this battle was worthy of serious analysis and study by all troops. As for the great victory at Yangmingbao, Mao Weiren believed that the classics could be written into the world's famous war case textbooks, and they also deserved serious analysis and study by all military units.
