Zhang Yunfei also returned a solemn military salute, with a serious and serious face, and handed the rocket artillery development task book to Director Yu of the Weapons Research Institute with very formal hands.

This task book for the development of rocket artillery not only stipulates the time for the development of the first rocket artillery, but also attaches the technical parameters of the rocket artillery to be developed, such as a firing range of more than 10 km, a 40-tube interassembly, a caliber of 150 mm, and so on.

Director Yu, who took over the task book for the development of rocket artillery, carefully put away the task book covered with the bright red seal of the 36th Group Army and signed by Zhang Yunfei, and then gave Zhang Yunfei a military salute, then turned around and gave a solemn military salute to all the personnel present below, and then walked down the rostrum with great dignity amid everyone's thunderous applause......

Jining at the end of October, the scenery outside the city is charming, the vast prairie outside, most of the pastures are yellow, and it looks golden from afar. Zhang Yunfei's plane has just landed at the newly built Jining Airport, and the construction of the Jining Airport has enabled military supplies to be quickly transported from Datong to Jining.

As soon as Zhang Yunfei stepped out of the plane, he saw dozens of commanders of the cavalry division lined up at the airport to greet them, and the leader was none other than Sun Chuanzhi, commander of the cavalry division. Zhang Yunfei smiled faintly at everyone, and waved his hand to the commanders of the cavalry division who came to greet him.

Sun Chuanzhi saw Zhang Yunfei descending the gangway, and hurriedly led everyone to walk quickly in front of Zhang Yunfei, held Zhang Yunfei's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Welcome to Jining Commander-in-Chief to inspect." ”

Zhang Yunfei smiled and said kindly: "Comrades have worked hard. And shook hands with everyone one by one, all the commanders of the cavalry division who shook hands with Zhang and Yunfei were very excited and proud in their hearts, with a thick smile on their faces.

After shaking hands with everyone, Zhang Yunfei said: "Senior Commander Sun, is the Mengsui Army of the little devil still relatively peaceful?" ”

Sun Chuanzhi stood upright and reported loudly: "Commander-in-chief, the little devils of the Mengsui Legion are not very peaceful now, since a new infantry division was added a month ago, the cavalry of the little devils have often harassed and provoked us, and we have already had several skirmishes with the little devil cavalry in this month. ”

Zhang Yunfei knew that this was a second-class division of the little devils, with less than 20,000 personnel, mostly new recruits, which was formed three or four months ago in the local area of Yueben, and only landed in China more than a month ago to fight, and is now assigned to the battle sequence of the Mengsui Army.

Since the annihilation of the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Little Devil Mengsui Regiment, Naosaburo Okabe applied to the base camp to assign a cavalry wing and a chariot wing of the original Kwantung Army to his command, and the base camp of the little devil mobilized the newly formed 44th Division from the mainland to be stationed in Guisui.

The current Guisui can be said to be heavily armed, not only stationed two field infantry divisions, namely the 26th Division and the 44th Division, but also two wings of Reading Power, namely the cavalry wing and the chariot wing of the little devils, which are under the direct command of Naosaburo Okabe.

In addition, there are five or six thousand people in a cavalry division of the puppet army, seven or eight thousand people in an infantry division of the puppet army, and the second cavalry brigade of the little devils is also stationed in Baotou, with a total of more than 10,000 devil cavalry, so Okabe Naosaburo feels that his Mengsui army is already very strong, and constantly sends little ghost cavalry to disturb the periphery of Jining.

Zhang Yunfei saw Sun Chuanzhi talking about it, the little ghost has not been very peaceful recently, his eyes flashed, and he thought in his heart, the little devil really doesn't remember his surname for a long time, he doesn't fight for three days, and he dares to go to the house to reveal the tiles.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yunfei smiled faintly and said: "Commander Sun, the commander of the little devil Mengsui Legion, Naosaburo Okabe, is really bold, he dares to provoke us, and your cavalry division should also give the little devil cavalry a little color." ”

Hearing this, the cavalry division commander Sun Chuanzhi's eyes lit up with joy, and he asked with a smile: "Commander-in-chief, do you mean to let our cavalry division take the initiative to attack and beat the little devil hard." ”

Zhang Yunfei nodded lightly and said, "Yes, but I still have to take a look at your cavalry division first, to see how your mental outlook is, and whether you can take on the heavy responsibility of this attack." ”

"Welcome to the inspection of the division commander, everyone in our cavalry division is good, please rest assured that the commander-in-chief will be able to take on this important task."

"Okay, let's go to the troops below first to have a good look!" Zhang Yunfei said with a smile, Zhang Yunfei's implication is that if the performance of the cavalry division can be satisfactory to Zhang Yunfei, then the cavalry division will be used to attack the little devil Mengsui Legion in the future, and if the performance cannot satisfy Zhang Yunfei, then the cavalry division can only assist in attacking the little devil's Mengsui Legion in the future.

Hearing the meaning of Zhang Yunfei's words, Sun Chuanzhi, the commander of the cavalry division, said confidently: "Commander-in-chief, then let's go to the cavalry regiment closest to here first." ”

At present, the cavalry division has nearly 30,000 people, except for two or three thousand auxiliary and civilian personnel, the rest are cavalry soldiers, and the three cavalry brigades and nine cavalry regiments of the cavalry division plus Babur's reading cavalry regiment are a total of ten cavalry regiments, each of which has more than 2,000 men.

The 10 regiments of the cavalry division were scattered and stationed in an area of more than 100 square kilometers with Jining as the center, and the 1st Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Brigade was the closest to the airport.

After leaving the airport, everyone mounted their war horses, and a group of twenty or thirty people went to the garrison of a regiment three or four kilometers away, and the distance of a few kilometers was a while.

When everyone flocked to the first regiment of garrisons with Zhang Yunfei, the regiment of soldiers who got the news, under the leadership of their own regiment commanders, had already lined up in a neat line on the spacious and flat training ground.

More than 2,000 cavalrymen, riding war horses, almost filled the wide training ground, a row of just 100 cavalrymen, standing in a neat row of more than 20 rows on the training ground, all the cavalry soldiers watched Zhang Yunfei ride a horse and walk slowly, and silently saluted Zhang Yunfei. More than 2,000 war horses also seemed very quiet, without a little scratching or neighing.

Suddenly, a loud voice sounded: "Salute! ”

The movements were uniform, and with the sound of "brushing", more than 2,000 soldiers raised their sabers together, and more than 2,000 sabers, under the illumination of the sun, emitted a dazzling cold light, which had a great visual impact.

The more than 2,000 soldiers of the cavalry regiment were all full of murderous aura and looked highly motivated, and even Zhang Yunfei, who was more than ten meters away, felt everyone's murderous aura.

Zhang Yunfei couldn't help nodding secretly, thinking in his heart, don't look at the cavalry division from the regiment to the division It has only been less than a year, but after a few battles, there has obviously been a qualitative change, and a qualified cavalry warrior has grown.

Sun Chuanzhi, the commander of the cavalry division next to him, was also very satisfied with the performance of the cavalry regiment, and thought in his heart, these rabbit cubs finally did not lose their face in front of the commander-in-chief.

Zhang Yunfei rode his horse a few steps forward, stood in front of the neat phalanx of the cavalry regiment, and said loudly with full of energy: "Comrades! The little devils in Guisui are eyeing us and often harassing and provoking our cavalry division, what are you going to do? ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

More than 2,000 soldiers of the cavalry regiment shouted together, the screams of the soldiers shook the sky, and it came far away, Zhang Yunfei's eardrums were also buzzing, seeing the performance of the cavalry regiment, Zhang Yunfei was very satisfied in his heart, there was no need to go to other cavalry regiments to inspect, I think everyone is about the same.

After satisfying the inspection and returning to the headquarters of the cavalry division, Zhang Yunfei said to Sun Chuanzhi: "Chuanzhi, I am very satisfied with your cavalry division, it is very good, you must be ready for a big battle." ”

"Yes! Thank you, Chief. Sun Chuanzhi immediately stood upright, saluted a military salute, and said happily.

Sun Chuanzhi was very happy in his heart at this time, Zhang Yunfei's words just now let Sun Chuanzhi know that there must be a big battle to be fought in the near future, and maybe the cavalry division will have to take on the heavy responsibility of the main attack.

Since the last time the first brigade of the little devil cavalry was annihilated and Jining was recovered, it has been a long time since there has been a vigorous battle, and the soldiers usually grit their teeth and train, striving to go to the battlefield as soon as possible, and strive to kill more little devils on the battlefield.

Several brigade commanders and several regiment commanders of the cavalry division usually run to themselves when they have nothing to do, and they always think of ways to trap themselves, whether there are any big actions recently, Sun Chuanzhi looked at everyone's actions and knew that everyone wanted to fight a big battle.

Not to mention the soldiers and brigade commanders below, even Sun Chuanzhi himself has recently faded out of a bird, and he is so idle that he is panicking, looking at the cold and deserted command headquarters every day, he doesn't feel good in his heart, and he usually has to train the soldiers below fiercely.

Zhang Yunfei looked at Sun Chuanzhi's happy expression, and thought in his heart that it was time to fight another war, and the area of the base area should also be expanded.

Zhang Yunfei's plan in his heart is to start with the little devil's Mengsui army, the Mongolian steppe is not only vast, but also rich in minerals, oil, iron ore and other strategic minerals, very rich.

Now that he is strong and strong, he can fight a large-scale battle, and now many of the little devils' troops are transferred to Southeast Asia, and the focus of the little devils is also in Southeast Asia, and now it is a good opportunity to fight.

Not long ago, a large-scale conscription was carried out, and more than 30 new divisions were formed in one go, except for less than 10 newly formed divisions sent to China to fight, the rest were all sent to Southeast Asia.

Little Devil not only sent most of the newly formed divisions to Southeast Asia, but also transferred several permanent divisions from China to land in Southeast Asia to fight; at present, although the total number of troops in Chinese mainland has increased slightly, the combat effectiveness has not increased, but has declined.
