Li Yunlong nodded with a grim face.

That's why he wanted to bomb Tokyo all along.

In the past, after all, the Chinese army could not defeat the Japanese army.

Therefore, the ultimate goal of the Chinese army is to drive the devils out of China.

As for the counterattack on the Japanese mainland, it is only a thought at most, and even many people dare not think about it, after all, the gap between China and Japan is like a chasm.

However, now the Eighth Route Army has some strength.

Although there is still some distance from a counter-attack on the Japanese mainland, it is already possible to carry out some retaliation against the Japanese mainland.

"In the early stage, only small-scale bombing can be carried out."

Li Yunlong's tone was fierce:

"When we have more pilots and strategic bombers, we can carry out large-scale bombing, and labor and management will turn Japan into a scorched earth."

Li Yunlong is not bragging, but a goal he wants to achieve from the bottom of his heart.

I didn't dare to think about it before, but now as long as you work hard to kill devils, nothing can't be done.

When Li Yunlong was in Cangyunling and accepted the Italian cannon given by Boss Chen, the gears of his fate had already begun to turn.

Who would have thought that a handsome descendant who was weaving baskets in Dabie Mountain would become a big man in the world in the future?

Zhao Gang nodded: "Lao Li, no matter what decision you make, I will fully support and cooperate with you!" ”

"What about decisions that violate principles?" Li Yunlong raised his eyebrows, "You also fully support and cooperate?" ”

"It depends on what it is." Zhao Gang smiled slightly, not in the slightest bit of Li Yunlong's favor.

If Zhao Gang said that he would also support the decision that violated the principles, then Li Yunlong would not be allowed to go to heaven in the future?

"That's not interesting." Li Yunlong flattened his mouth, thinking that Lao Zhao was also a king with a strong mouth, and his speech was better than singing.

Zhao Gang punched in his notebook, changed his words, and smiled: "Lao Li, in this battle, we can be said to have made a lot of money, all the businesses in the previous two years combined did not make much money this time!" ”

"For other businesses, Boss Chen gave specific weapons and ammunition, military and civilian factory equipment and combat materials."

"How are you going to spend the quota of 182,000 devils?"

When they were with Chen Feng, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang used to call Chen Feng Brother Chen, which was cordial.

When they are not together, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang both like to call Boss Chen, indicating that Chen Feng is wealthy.

Li Yunlong lay down on the chair and lifted Erlang's legs: "How to spend the quota of 182,000 devils?" I'll have to think about it. ”

In Boss Chen's place, the amount of the devil killed is equivalent to currency, which can be exchanged for all combat materials, weapons and ammunition.

At this time, Li Yunlong felt like a nouveau riche who had just made a windfall.

Arrogant.

"Don't worry, save it first."

After thinking for a while, Li Yunlong waved his hand and said:

"Let the troops rest and recuperate first, send a telegram to the head of the headquarters, report the content of this business, and invite the head of the headquarters to move the headquarters to Taiyuan as soon as possible."

Li Yunlong is still waiting for the head of the headquarters to formulate the next strategic policy.

After that, the new regiment will reorganize and expand the army, rest and train, adapt to the new equipment, and enhance its combat effectiveness.

In this battle, the new regiment also suffered casualties, but the casualties were not large.

Moreover, after this battle of the large corps, the combat effectiveness of the new regiment has been qualitatively improved.

The tactics of the various arms of the armed forces, such as open ground and infantry coordination, have been more skillful, and more than 100,000 devils have been eliminated, and the morale of the troops has become more and more vigorous.

This time, Li Yunlong planned to expand the number of troops to 50,000 at a time, and to expand the troops of the new regiment to about 100,000.

In addition, the amount of business earned this time is huge, and a few hundred cannons were considered big business in the past, and Li Yunlong only needs to hand over half of it to the headquarters.

The business earned in this battle, the weapons and ammunition and war materials captured are like a big cake.

Of course, this cake will have to be distributed by the head of the headquarters.

Of course, no matter how the head of the headquarters is finally distributed, the new regiment and the headquarters will definitely take the lion's share.

Secondly, the 129th Division, the Independent Regiment, the New Second Regiment, and the Jizhong Military Region and other fraternal units are also shared.

"That's fine."

Zhao Gang nodded.

At this moment, Wang Dehou walked in quickly, holding a telegram in his hand and reporting to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang: "The regiment commander, political commissar, just now the deputy head of the regiment Xing called, the first batch of steel and cement to repair the airport, as well as workers and sappers, have departed from Heyuan County Station, and are expected to arrive at Taiyuan Station at about 10 o'clock tonight. ”

Li Yunlong said: "Chief of Staff, there is a new situation now, we are going to bomb Tokyo and the Devil's Army Port recently, let's leave Xincheng Airport alone, and make every effort to repair Wusu Airport, and Wusu Airport must be repaired within a week." ”

The Wusu airport was badly damaged, the runway was bombed, the infrastructure was bombed, and the oil and ammunition depots were bombed.

Previously, Li Yunlong's order was that Wusu Airport and Xincheng Airport should be repaired together for half a month.

Fortunately, there is no need to relocate the site, the runway of the airport is ready-made, and not all the shells are blown up, only the runway needs to be re-covered and filled with high-grade cement.

After the runway is repaired, the aircraft can be parked, and as for the pilot's quarters, ammunition depots and oil depots, and towers at the airport, buildings can be repaired slowly.

"Yes, Captain."

Wang Dehou took the order, but quickly guessed the reason, and asked tentatively:

"Boss Chen has already been here?"

"That's right!" Zhao Gang said with a smile, "Chief of Staff, this is the business price that Boss Chen gave us, you draft a telegram to send to the headquarters, and ask the head of the headquarters to move the headquarters to Taiyuan as soon as possible." ”

Wang Dehou took the notebook and looked at it, and his eyes suddenly widened.

In great joy, Wang Dehou finished reading the business price this time.

"Yes, I will prepare a telegram and send it to the head of the headquarters." Wang Dehou smiled.

……

Southeast of Jin.

The county seat of Liao County.

Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"Chief, several operational staff officers from the General Staff just now calculated on a scale that the area of land we recovered in this campaign is more than 500 square kilometers."

In the war hall, the chief of staff reported to the chief with a smile on his face:

"Regain 1 provincial capital and 5 county towns including Taiyuan, Yangquan, and Jingcheng County, recover the Zhengtai Railway, and eliminate more than 130,000 devils."

"As soon as our clear code telegram and Xinhua Daily were issued, congratulatory telegrams from all sides came one after another."

Beside the chief of staff, the division commander and the chief stood with their hands in hand, their faces full of smiles.

The results of this battle exceeded the expectations of all the headquarters chiefs.

After the battle of Taiyuan, the division commander left a part of the troops in Taigu and Jinzhong, and then returned to the southeast of Jin with the main force.

In addition, Shouyang, Yangquan and Niangziguan are also garrisoned by troops of the 129th Division.

Looking at the map, most of Shanxi has become the territory of the Eighth Route Army, and the chief couldn't help but nod with a satisfied expression.

In addition, the YA sent three commendation telegrams in a row, which made the chief even more happy.

"Chief, Li Yunlong is urging again, when will you move your headquarters to Taiyuan?" The division commander looked at the leader and smiled slightly.

A few days ago, Li Yunlong had already sent a telegram to the headquarters, asking the headquarters to send professionals to Taiyuan to find out the devil's agents and spies.

In fact, it is for the safety of the head of the headquarters.

"There is no hurry to move the headquarters to Taiyuan, what other actions are there on the side of the Second War Zone Commander's Department?" The chief asked.

"Yan Laoxi didn't do anything other than send two congratulatory telegrams and commendation telegrams."

The Chief of Staff replied:

"The Jin Sui army troops in Luliang Mountain are also very peaceful, and they have not made any out-of-the-ordinary moves, and it is said that Yan Laoxi has crossed the Yellow River west to Qiulin Town."

The division commander smiled slightly: "I estimate that Yan Laoxi feels uncomfortable, he has been working hard in Taiyuan for decades, but he didn't expect Taiyuan to fall into the hands of our Eighth Route Army in the end." ”

For Yan Laoxi, several leaders didn't have a good impression.

During the Red Army, Yan Laoxi sent the Jin Sui Army to attack the Red Army, and during the Anti-Japanese War, he often provoked friction and arrested and killed guerrillas and progressives.

At that moment, a telegraph operator walked in briskly with a telegram in his hand.

"Report to the chief!" The telegraph operator gave a military salute, "Just now, Li Yunlong, the commander of the new regiment, sent a secret telegram, which is about the business price of this battle!" ”

On the telegram, Li Yunlong only reported the business price of the campaign.

He did not report on the new business, and he planned to report in person when the head of the headquarters arrived in Taiyuan.

The eyes of the chief, the chief of staff, the division commander, and the busy operational staff officers all lit up.

The chief of staff took the telegram and read it, and read it as he read it:

"500 new 122-mm howitzers, 240 152-mm howitzers, 160 Katyusha rocket launchers, 100 self-propelled 155-mm howitzers."

“……”

The chief of staff read them one by one, and the smiles on the faces of the leaders became more and more intense.

After reading the last 262 75mm mountain guns, the chief's face showed a strong taste of happiness.

The division commander pushed the black round-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Boss, I congratulate you on making a fortune!" ”

"A week later, the headquarters will be moved to Taiyuan." The chief gave the order with a smile on his face.

……

Tokyo.

Prime Minister's Office.

"Waste Okamura Ninji."

Japanese Prime Minister Hideji Tojo scolded and was about to get up and go to the Locust Palace to meet the locusts.

Tojo had already discussed with his staff that the Japanese army could not give up North China, and was ready to send General Enken Tohi to Beiping to serve as the commander of the North China Front.

As for Okamura Ninji, he could only be recalled to his homeland and served as a reserve.

After all, Okamura Ninji is a Japanese army general, who has shed blood for the locusts and made meritorious contributions to the empire, so it is impossible for Okamura to apologize.

However, Okamura's military career also stopped there, and since then he has become a marginal figure in the Japanese army.

But at this moment, a major general's staff officer hurriedly walked in with a telegram in his hand, and reported to Tojo Hideji with an ugly face.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister."

"Just now Admiral Yamamoto sent a telegram."

"The Combined Naval Fleet was defeated by the Pacific Fleet at Midway, losing four capital aircraft carriers, Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, and Flying Dragon, 1 cruiser, more than 300 aircraft, and more than 3,000 naval soldiers."

"Nani?"

When Hideki Tojo heard this, a look of disbelief and shock suddenly appeared on his face.

Immediately took the telegram from the staff officer of the major general and looked at it, Tojo Hideji couldn't help but scold: "This group of naval red deer is a bunch of waste, and Yamamoto Fifty-six is also a waste..."

When the news of the defeat at Midway came, Tojo Hideji broke down in a cold sweat, Alexander.

A few months ago, Tojo Hideji was still proud.

In less than half a year, the Japanese Army, with a force of less than 300,000 troops, swept through China's Hong Kong, the Malay Archipelago, and the Indochina Peninsula, while its navy did whatever it wanted, and the gunboats pointed out that it included almost all the islands and reefs in the entire western Pacific.

But the army was defeated in North China, and the navy was defeated at Midway, and reality slapped Tojo Hideji twice, and at this time, Tojo Hideji's whole brain was buzzing.
