Chapter 99, Airdrop
Lu Qiang, who was originally happy because he had gained a talent, pinched the telegram in his hand, and was furious, this bald head was too unhuman, and he actually sold the news to Japan, but in exchange for the Japanese army attacking Changsha, it was gone after retreating 300 miles.
But now is not the time to be angry, and try to make the Japanese army dispel this idea.
According to the call, the wolves led the team and were about to leave Inner Mongolia, and because they avoided crowded places and walked sparsely populated places along the way, they were not discovered, but he didn't have such a large group of teams that were too conspicuous, and it was impossible not to be targeted.
In addition to the Red Party who had already contacted them, the Japanese spies had already discovered them, but they were just tracking, waiting for the arrival of the main force of the Japanese army, and at the same time, part of the main forces of the 120th Division and the 129th Division of the Eighth Route turned north to meet them, after all, the significance of this team was too great.
Because the Japanese North China Front was entangled by the Eighth Road, it was temporarily unable to enter Inner Mongolia north, but this also aroused their anger, and they threw all their troops into it, preparing to fight quickly and end quickly, and repelled these sticky guerrillas and went north.
In order to cope with the Japanese offensive, Lu Qiang decided to provide weapons and equipment to the Eighth Road, which was still provided in the form of a loan bank, so a large number of preparations were transported to the Il-76.
Zhang Zhongliang was quite puzzled by Lu Qiang's behavior because he first came, according to his understanding of other forces, no matter who had some equipment, they were all tightly hidden, and whoever was like him lent it to others at will, so he exchanged an IOU. However, it can also be seen from the side that the 250th Division is rich and oily.
Looking at the artillery and boxes of guns and ammunition loaded onto the plane, Zhang Zhongliang only felt that his heart was dripping blood.
Lu Qiang prepared a large number of artillery and guns/ammunition for them, the artillery is mainly 152mm and 105mm, the same is 100 guns, and if they are given more, they may not be able to come over, so much is enough for them. There are also more than 500 60 mortars and tens of thousands of Mauser 98K and 56 and a half. The main weapons they are equipped with are the 38 big cover, the middle formal, and the water beads of the hairy bear, and the others are made in Hanyang, etc., which are not mentioned. The bullets of the Mauser rifle that Lu Qiang "lent" them can be used normally, because the medium is officially an imitation of the Mauser 98, and the water Lianzhu is the Mosin Nagant rifle, the caliber is the same as 56 and a half, and the bullets can be used with each other, and Lu Qiang still takes good care of them.
Pinching this list, there was a lot of internal quarrel in the Eight Roads, everyone wanted to take a bite of this batch of aid, and it was a lot of weapons, but they were divided into one piece, and everyone got a loss, so they were all fighting for it.
The gun is nothing, the key is the cannon, good guy, there are only a few cannons in all the teams of their entire Eighth Road, and even the mortars add up to less than a hundred, most of them are captured by the Japanese army, and there are not many shells left, every shot is like a treasure, so the 200 cannons, everyone is noisy, and it makes Taizu's head big.
"Lu Xiaoyou has a problem for us, the palms and backs of these hands are full of meat." Taizu took a puff of cigarette, I don't know whether to cry or laugh, and there was still a commotion in his head.
"Let them grab it themselves, whoever grabs it counts, didn't Master Lu say it, he airdropped it to us, there is only an approximate location." Zhou Shuai said with a smile.
"That's the only way, let them grab it themselves, hehe." Taizu took a puff of his cigarette and squinted and smiled.
The divisions of the Eighth Road got the news, how much they wanted, it was all up to them to grab it, how much they could grab, as soon as they heard the news, these bigwigs immediately flew up, and immediately went home to pull people, eager to bring all the people with them.
In the sky, 10 Il-79s flew over with a distance of more than 100 meters, and 25 Jian-5s escorted them. Although it was determined that the Japanese airfields were destroyed, it was not guaranteed that the Japanese army could quickly level the ground and take off the planes, after all, the propeller planes did not have high requirements for the runway for take-off and landing. So for the safety of the transport aircraft, escort is a must.
The back of the Il-76 is now loaded with things, waiting to be dropped when it reaches the air above the intended location.
The designated location of the airdrop has been crowded with people looking forward to it one by one, looking at the sky, the snow is more than the clear sky, it is exceptionally blue, there are no clouds in the sky, and you can see the horizon at a glance.
They were impatient to wait, but they still didn't see any planes.
"Buzz~~" The subtle sound of the engine came from above their heads, and the sound became louder and louder, which attracted the attention of the people below, looking up at the sky, and a black shadow flew towards them.
The people below were more curious, obviously they didn't see it, so how did these planes fly above their heads.
The pilot of the plane will not tell them that he is at an altitude of 8,000 meters and you will not be able to see it.
"Arrived over the target area, open the hatch."
With a "creak", the hatch in the tail of the Ilf plane opened, and a stream of air poured directly in.
There were two people in the tail of the plane who got those big boxes and small boxes to the door, and then threw them out, and now after throwing them out, the umbrellas on them were directly opened, and the small white umbrella flowers were stretched open one by one.
There was a commotion on the ground, and one by one they were gearing up, waiting for an order, and then rushed out to grab it.
The small boxes that were loaded in the rear were quickly thrown away because they were in the front, and these smaller wooden boxes were filled with guns and ammunition mortars, which were not too heavy, and those cannons were not light, especially the 152 plus howitzers, which weighed four tons, and it was not possible to rely on manpower. On the point surface in the engine room, there were two slipways, like rails, on which there was a board car, on which the guns were beaten into racks and placed.
On the ten transport planes, the guns do not take up space, mainly artillery, which takes up a lot of space, and then there are a lot of various ammunition, because all of them have to be thrown to a place that is not too big, so these planes come in turns, and after throwing them, they will return first with the two Jian-5.
There are more and more white umbrellas in the sky, and the people below are getting more and more excited, licking their lips one by one, and secretly writing down those landing points in their hearts.
It took about ten minutes, all ten transport planes were delivered, and the last one, after going around in the air, returned with the last three.
The people on the ground, when they saw that the plane in the sky had finally been airdropped, suddenly froze, and they didn't know who shouted "rob", and those people immediately rushed out and rushed to the landing place where they came.
"I think it should have landed in this area, why isn't it there?" An eight-way warrior looked for it depressedly with his head down.
"You can't be mistaken, can you?" His companion was skeptical.
"No, absolutely." The warrior shook his head in affirmation.
"Then look for it, if not, change places." His companion said.
After turning around and still not seeing it, the warrior was a little depressed, "Really, where did you go?" ”
"Look at that." His companion suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a tree, and following the direction he had pointed, the warrior saw that the tree was covered with a white canvas, and that there was an army-green chest on it.
"It's in the trees, no wonder I can't find it." He kept his head down, "I'll just say, how could I be wrong." "Boast about it.
The two of them struggled to get the box down from the tree, looking at the box that was more than one meter long and half a meter high, the two of them were itching very much, pulled a thick branch, and couldn't wait to pry the box open, a smell of engine oil suddenly came out, and the two of them inhaled hard, as if this smell was the most fragrant in the world.
"A lot of guns, all new." Looking at the brand-new Mauser rifles in the box, his eyes were shining with golden light, and after looking at the long-term guns that were already tattered in his hands and the rifling was almost smoothed, he threw them directly to the side, grabbed a Mauser from the box, and touched it happily, just like touching a big beauty.
"Don't be stupid, look for anything else." His companion urged.
"Oh, by the way, I remember that there was a big guy who fell this week, who went to look for me, who is watching here?"
"Let's carry it together."
The mountains are all over the eight roads wearing gray military uniforms, looking for things that fall in the mountains, every time you find one, you will be very excited, as for the 152mm plus howitzer, the guy is too big, and someone must watch after finding it, otherwise it will be snatched away by others, or if the two are found together, they will be robbed and fought.
Like what:
"This is what I found first, it's mine."
"What? Apparently I saw it first. ”
"Shit, you're behind me, how can you see it."
"I'm a sharpshooter, and I have better eyesight than you, so of course I saw it before you."
"Sharpshooter staring at an egg, I'm still a machine gunner."
"What do you dare to say that sharpshooters are useless, I can destroy a devil with one bullet, how can you be like your machine gunner, you know that wasting bullets may not be able to kill a devil."
"Machine gun gestures are used to suppress the enemy, otherwise you will have a chance to fight the devil, maybe you will be killed before you can shoot."
"You actually cursed me to die, believe it or not, I will kill you now."
"What, you're going to kill me, come on, come on, see who kills whom."
"Come on, but don't call your parents if you cry."
"Whoever calls the parent is the puppy."
"Smack!"
"Damn, you're really here."
"Who's going to fake you?"
"Suffer Death......"
"Bang bang bang...... "......The two of them rolled the grass and went.
"Hahaha, you two get out slowly, I'll take this."
"Little thief, dare to be so ......"
Ahem, let's get down to business.
have gained some gains, some of the bigwigs are happy, but some are extremely depressed.
"What are you loading in your heads, just grab the cannon, don't want the shells, then what to hit, I'll stuff you in and shoot it." A certain boss poked his head and scolded his subordinates.
"Originally, I grabbed a lot of guns, but when I was about to grab the shells, I found that the shells were gone." The subordinate who was poked in the head and scolded said depressedly.
"Forget it, I'll see if I can deduct some points from them." Speaking of this, the big guy has a toothache, and if you want to get it, you have to pay. Those guys will definitely ask for cannons, they didn't grab a few, but they all went to grab shells, and cannons without shells are just a pile of scrap metal, so insidious.
