Southeast of Jin.

The county seat of Liao County.

Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

More than half of the devils of the First Army have been wiped out, and although the Japanese reinforcements have arrived in Shanxi, the war materials have not yet arrived.

And the strength of the Eighth Route Army not only did not lose in this operation, but also grew because of ammunition reimbursement and business.

The devils did not dare to launch a sweeping attack on the base area of the Eighth Route Army for the time being.

Now the entire southeast of Jin is under the control of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and even the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army dare not get involved in the slightest.

So.

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army has been transferred from everywhere and moved to the county seat of Liao County.

Around the county seat, tens of thousands of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army are stationed, and the headquarters is very safe.

In the conference hall of the headquarters, the leaders of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and the 129th Division were doing a battle summary meeting, and all the participants were brigade-level officers, and the conference hall was filled.

The conference hall has an entrance to the bomb shelter.

Even if the devil gets the information and sends bombers and fighters to carry out decapitation bombing, it is impossible to succeed.

It was mainly the Deputy Chief of the General Staff who spoke:

"To be honest, this battle is the most beautiful battle we have fought since the formation of the Eighth Route Army!"

"The results of the battle were three times that of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, but the casualties were almost half of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments."

"Moreover, in this battle, we killed four Japanese lieutenant generals, annihilated two second-line elite divisions of the Japanese army, and defeated the Japanese army in Mongolia, which is an unprecedented victory for our Eighth Route Army!"

Bang Bang Bang –

As soon as the words ended, all the leaders raised their hands and applauded, each with a smile on their faces.

Two years ago, in the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the Eighth Route Army killed and wounded more than 20,000 Japanese soldiers, suffered more than 17,000 casualties on its own side, and poisoned more than 20,000 people, of which the 129th Division suffered the most serious casualties, and the combat losses of the whole division in the Battle of the Hundred Regiments were about 8,000 people.

However, the troops of the 129th Division in the southeast of Jinjin, with the assistance of Boss Chen, can make it to the battlefield, and each soldier is equipped with a gas mask.

The weapons and ammunition previously given to the troops of the 129th Division, each individual armament, was equipped with a gas mask.

The little devil's gas bomb is still very powerful, and if the Eighth Route Army does not have a gas mask, it can lose its combat effectiveness within a few minutes after use.

Originally, the Japanese army's poison gas bombs were the killer weapon of the devils, and they were generally used when they could not be defeated or when it was difficult to attack.

However, the Eighth Route Army was equipped with a large number of gas masks, so that after these battles, the devil's gas bombs could not play a role at all, and the effect was very small.

The chief on the side had a rich smile on his face.

Although this battle was not personally commanded by the chief, he was Li Yunlong's general staff, and the number of devils killed in this battle was very satisfactory.

Coupled with the business of Boss Chen and Li Yunlong, it can be said that the Eighth Route Army can make a lot of money.

Immediately afterwards, the deputy chief of the general staff commended and commended the units for their outstanding performance.

At the same time, we must be vigilant that the enemy is very strong, and there is still a long way to go before we can drive the devils out of China, and we should not have the idea of underestimating the enemy just because we have won a battle.

He ordered all brigade commanders to step up the political and ideological education of the troops after they returned.

Finally, the deputy chief of the general staff asked all units to report the consumption of ammunition to the division headquarters of the 129th Division as soon as possible, and then the division headquarters issued it to the new regiment for reimbursement.

The amount of ammunition consumed must be accurate, and no concealment, misreporting, let alone over-reporting, must be allowed.

After the meeting was dismissed, the others left one after another to return to their respective units and base areas.

Only Division Commander Liu and Brigade Commander Chen were left in the conference hall, as well as the deputy commander-in-chief and deputy chief of general staff.

The division commander looked at the brigade commander: "I said Chen Geng, why are you staying here if you don't go back to the Taiyue Military Region?" What, do you want to eat? ”

The division headquarters is with the headquarters, so the division commander does not have to run away.

With a smile, the brigade commander said, "Division commander, I'm in a hurry to leave in the morning, and I haven't had breakfast yet." ”

"Isn't it just a meal?" The chief smiled, "Then stay for lunch and then go back, there is enough canned food." ”

In this battle, the 129th Division also captured a lot, and almost all the trophies of the 33rd and 37th Divisions of the Japanese Army were annihilated, and Li Yunlong gave almost all of them to the 129th Division.

The troops won the battle, gained a lot, and the headquarters naturally became rich.

Soon, a large bowl of oily noodles was brought in by the cooks, and all the leaders couldn't help but move their fingers, in addition to oily noodles, each person also had a canned meat.

While eating noodles, the brigade commander said:

"When I came in the morning, my convoy ran into a devil's plane."

The division commander asked in a surprised tone, "Didn't the devil's plane come down to attack you?" ”

Today, the Taiyue Military Region has been connected to the county seat of Liao County, and the county towns and some villages have also been connected to the road, and the officers of the Eighth Route Army who are above the rank of brigade commander basically travel by jeep.

The Eighth Route Army did not have air supremacy.

Sometimes, when Boss Chen's plane was making deliveries, he would shoot him down when he encountered a devil's plane.

But most of the time, the devil's plane can still enter and exit the southeast base area of Jin unscrupulously.

The brigade commander shook his head while eating noodles: "No, it's 2 reconnaissance planes, and the devil's pilot should have seen my six M2 large-caliber heavy machine guns." ”

"Six large-caliber heavy machine guns?" The deputy chief of the general staff said with a smile, "It is reasonable that the two Japanese reconnaissance planes did not dare to come down to attack. ”

After a pause, the deputy chief of the general staff said again: "If it's a devil's fighter jet, then it's impossible to say." ”

The chief's eyes were fierce, and he said: "Wait for another three months, when the pilot graduates and Boss Chen's plane arrives, we will have air supremacy, and if the devil's plane dares to come, we will shoot it down, and we can also dispatch the plane and take the initiative to attack the devil's important target." ”

The deputy chief of the General Staff, the division commander, and the brigade commander all nodded in agreement, their eyes and expressions full of anticipation.

The division commander said: "I really hope that day will come sooner, and our cadres will not have to be afraid when they travel in the future, and it will be the devil who will be afraid at that time." ”

At this moment, a telegraph soldier walked in with a telegram in his hand, gave a military salute, and then handed the telegram to the deputy chief of the general staff.

"Report, a telegram from the new regiment!"

The deputy chief of the general staff put down his chopsticks and read the telegram.

The chief, brigade commander, and division commander on the side all looked at it expectantly.

Calculating the time, this telegram should be Li Yunlong's telegram to report business.

This battle.

How many heavy weapons and ammunition did Li Yunlong's kid earn?

This time, the telegram sent by Li Yunlong was a bit long, with a full four pages of messages, but when the chief of staff saw the first page of the telegram, his eyes suddenly lit up.

As the chief of staff's eyes lit up, the corners of the mouths of the other three chiefs also turned up.

The three chiefs thought at the same time that as expected, this telegram must be Li Yunlong's business report.

Soon, the chief of staff finished reading the telegram, his eyes widened, and an irrepressible smile appeared on his face:

"Li Yunlong's telegram is mainly to report to the headquarters the weapons and ammunition that the new regiment has earned from Boss Chen."

"Li Yunlong mainly said three things, that is, three businesses."

"The first business is the business of killing four Japanese lieutenant generals, and this time the business is very expensive, with a total of 60 B4 heavy howitzers and 60 Katyusha rocket launchers, 400 flight cadets, 200 radar cadets, 200 ground crew cadets, and 2,500 paratrooper cadets training opportunities, in addition to 400,000 tons of fuel and 1,000 vehicles."

When the chief, division commander, and brigade commander heard this, their eyes brightened all at once!

The chief nodded, and his tone was extremely satisfied: "It's really rich!" ”

The division commander also sighed with emotion: "Boss Chen's handwriting is getting bigger and bigger!" ”

The brigade commander looked at the chief and smiled slightly: "Boss, I congratulate you on making a fortune!" ”

"What about the second business?"

Ignoring the brigade commander, the chief looked at the chief of staff in an expectant tone.

The business of killing the four lieutenant generals is at the top, is the business behind it bigger and richer?

The chief of staff said: "The second business is that the new regiment can use the quota of killing 30,000 devils to exchange for new guns and corresponding ammunition equipped with 50,000 people, as well as 5 new gun production lines and 5 bullet production lines. ”

"New guns?"

The three chiefs were surprised.

"However, Li Yunlong said that he would wait for the test gun before deciding, but Boss Chen has already said that this new gun is better than Garand."

The chief of staff looked at the telegram in his hand:

"If it is suitable, in the future, our Eighth Route Army can be fully equipped with new guns, and Li Yunlong will exchange the new gun production line and bullet production line from the follow-up campaign."

The chief nodded: "Then wait until Li Yunlong and the others finish trying the gun!" ”

The weapons produced by Boss Chen are bound to be better than those of devils, there is no doubt about this.

However, such a big thing as changing guns in the army must not be decided hastily, the chief was satisfied with his expression when he thought of this, and Li Yunlong did a good job at this point.

The brigade commander's tone couldn't wait: "What about the third business?" ”

"The third business..."

The chief of staff organized the language, and the smile on his face became more and more intense:

"Our first batch of flight trainees has almost completed their training and will graduate next month, and Boss Chen started the aircraft business ahead of schedule, Li Yunlong decided to use the quota of killing 30,000 devils to exchange 70 planes from Boss Chen, including 40 bombers, 15 transport planes and 15 reconnaissance planes."

In fact, the first batch of reconnaissance aircraft did not need so much.

However, the first batch of flight cadets was not large, only 50.

Flying 20 Sabre fighters already accounted for 20 places, and the remaining 30 pilots flew 70 aircraft, which was a sufficient number of aircraft for the Eighth Route Army.

So it doesn't matter if you exchange a little more for reconnaissance aircraft, of course, reconnaissance aircraft are also very important.

The chief couldn't help but be ecstatic after hearing this, and suddenly stood up: "According to this, the air force of our Eighth Route Army can be established next month?" ”

The chief of staff nodded and said, "If nothing else, if this is the case, the air force unit of our Eighth Route Army will be established next month." ”

"Great!" The division commander's tone was excited, "What do I think the devil's aviation is arrogant with our Eighth Route Army?" ”

The brigade commander pushed his glasses and smiled: "70 planes plus 20 fighters, our Eighth Route Army has 90 planes at once, my big leaders, our Eighth Route Army is rich!" ”
