Chapter 178: Admiral Lee's Visit 1
November 30, 1940, Yamashiro Airport
Li Yunlong's visit was decided very early, but under the current situation, it is by no means a simple matter to visit Hans from the mountain city, even if it is a plane trip, it involves many problems, the straight-line distance is nearly 8,000 kilometers, passing through dozens of countries, involving hundreds of forces, opening up the airspace, meteorological monitoring, replenishing fuel, safety and security, rescue preparations, and many other aspects need to be foolproof.
But how easy is it to implement this series of problems, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Hans and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Yamashiro are almost busy in the past few days, but they still need to continue to negotiate, the biggest problem is the alliance, out of consideration of its own interests, the alliance will never allow Li Yunlong to travel on his own plane, if he has to use it, then change the pilots of the alliance within the territory of the alliance.
Just when everyone in the relevant parties thought that Li Yunlong's delegation would not be able to leave in November, Wang Yue, who had been wandering in Rome for a long time, came back, and he came back with four large transport planes.
Ten transport planes were mobilized to travel to eight countries, refueled six times, and the cumulative range was 14,000 kilometers.
Take a company of drawdown guards to Hanslang? Let's not be kidding, let's just come to a full-fledged reinforced company, with a unified height of more than 175, all the equipment is replaced with Teflon-coated high-end goods, and even the military uniform is replaced by the high-end military uniform made by Wang Yue, which is the military uniform of the Eighth Route Army that is not like the words in the drama.
Even the light infantry is definitely not good, tL37 combat passenger cars to 8, Valentin infantry tanks to two, bA-10 armored cars to four more, in order to cloth the country's prestige outside the territory, Wang Yue also borrowed a Hongqi bulletproof car from the Binzhou Museum, this thing in the forties is definitely the kind of top-level existence, even the highest authority bulletproof car can not compare.
At first, the government didn't want to hype up the matter, but later, for some reason, Hans actually took the initiative to release the news, and it was quite high-profile, which caused the Japanese government to issue several protests in a row, and there was a great feeling of anger and frustration. Seeing this scene here in the mountain city, let's not hide it, and directly hyped it up, radio, newspapers, and magazines reported it one after another, publicizing this visit as the biggest diplomatic victory since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and a sign that the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression had entered the stage of counteroffensive.
Today, Li Yunlong originally planned to take off directly from the Qijiang County Airport, but the Ministry of Military Affairs strongly demanded that he must take off from the Shancheng Airport, and for this reason even agreed that one of Li Yunlong's regiments should be stationed in the area around the airport to undertake the task of defending the airport. On the outskirts, the secret services have mobilized tens of thousands of people to control all the areas around the airport that can threaten the airport.
And the Air Force is not ambiguous, mobilizing 50 of the latest fighters to take up patrols, and there are still 100 fighters on the ground on standby, as long as the devils dare to come, the Air Force will never give them a little good fruit to eat.
The Shancheng Air Force has really been bullied by the devil miserably, and has been holding back its strength to give the devil a good look these days. In the past few days, hundreds of bombers have been dispatched to the battlefield to wantonly bomb the hinterland of the Japanese air defense forces, which is almost in a vacuum, mobilizing the Japanese army aviation to the greatest extent and creating a situation of pressing the Japanese army to fight.
Of course, this is just the appearance, as a poor ghost who is poorer than the Japanese army, the Yamashiro Air Force knows its own family affairs, and the fuel and ammunition reserves in their hands are seriously insufficient, and they have no strength to continue fighting.
Knowing that Li Yunlong was going to make a high-profile visit to Hans, the devil naturally would not stop, and used the few cards in his hand to play a few big cards, and even the precious paratrooper troops were dispatched, and the result was that the group of planes sent was beaten by the Yamashiro Air Force, and the elite paratroopers who were forced to parachute halfway were completely annihilated by a Sichuan army division with less than 2,000 people left, and the casualties on the Sichuan army's side were less than one-tenth of the Japanese army.
As the flower of the imperial army, Yamamoto's troops were naturally not idle, and sent several waves of commandos, but without exception, they were all wiped out by the military command team, according to the news from Kuroshima Morita, those so-called elites were pulled out of the military prison of the First Army by Yamamoto Kazuki, and they were completely used to make up the number of battle losses.
Up to now, although the devil's side is still crying happily, but in fact they have given up, and none of the devil's military leaders want to continue to waste the little capital in their hands. Wouldn't it be nice to show Tokyo for a show, with that resource, wouldn't he be good at engaging in a few targeted defensive attacks?
The devils are deceiving, and the mountain city is taking advantage of the situation to make Li Yunlong's trip extraordinarily grand, and today, the entire mountain city has become a sea of joy, and citizens are holding a parade on almost every street.
More than 300,000 college and secondary school students and citizens directly participated in the parade, and nearly 100,000 military, police, and special personnel patrolling the streets.
At the airport, the highest authority and his wife personally saw Li Yunlong off, and cordially interacted with Li Yunlong and other members of the delegation.
It's just that after seeing the Eighth Route Army constantly loading heavily armed soldiers and combat vehicles onto the plane, the corners of the mouth of the highest authority still twitched unconsciously, it was too powerful, and the strength of the Eighth Route Army had begun to exceed his ability to control.
The same frightened are those military and political dignitaries who came to see them off together, everyone is not stupid, the strength of the Eighth Route Army is there, what will happen in the future? How they choose will have to think carefully, of course, it has not yet reached the point where the tree is falling and scattering, after all, the government is also getting stronger during this time.
Comrade Hu Bicheng, who was standing beside the highest authorities, also took everyone's performance into his eyes, although the smile on his face remained the same, but this state of mind was already different, but compared with the different minds of the people in the mountain city, what he was thinking about was how to make good use of the current situation, for the benefit of the country and the people, to end this war as soon as possible, and to return peace to the people, because we have always abandoned war.
