Chapter 106: Target, Karonov

After a period of study, Sun Desheng is no longer the reckless man who physically punished soldiers at every turn. In order to completely eliminate the tension in the hearts of his allies, he decided to talk to the other party more.

"Comrade Cui, with your industrial base in the north and the scale of the current campaign, there should be many armored aces born in the troops."

"I heard Director Huang say that you used to be the supreme commander of a group army, and you even included two tank brigades under your banner. Are there any particularly useful tankmen in your troops? ”

After hearing the words armor ace, a trace of embarrassment involuntarily flashed on Lao Cui's face, but he adjusted his expression in a very short time.

After coming to the Republic of China for so long, he didn't practice any other skills, but he learned a lot of kung fu to cultivate qi.

Isn't it just being mentioned by the allies as the Winter War, what a big deal? I am about to return to China with great achievements, and there is nothing I can mention in the past.

The reason for the embarrassment just now is very simple, that is, because at this stage in the north, the results of the tankmen are not paid attention to at all. Even most grassroots commanders and fighters do not deliberately record damage data.

As for the armored ace?

Don't make a fuss, there's no such concept in the north right now. Even if you ask Lao Zhu, he will probably have to explain for a long time.

Of course, the two countries, which were also allies, did not have similar titles. After all, the armored ace is the first propaganda method used by Desan, isn't stealing school to give his own commander an eye medicine?

However, the loser does not lose the battle, and the absence of an armored ace does not mean that there is no elite crew.

After hearing Sun Desheng's inquiry, Lao Cui really thought of a fierce general.

"Company Commander Sun, strictly speaking, I am just an infantry commander. I can only know a little about the construction of armored forces and their tactics. ”

"There's a captain, though, and I'm sure you'll be interested."

"His name is Karonov, and if nothing else, he and his crew have at least twenty or more cars."

The Karonov in Lao Cui's mouth was an elite tank commander in the north during World War II. In a later game, nicknamed the World of Blood Bars, there was even a medal named after him.

This fierce man showed his talent for the first time in the Winter War.

When the main forces of his army group were pressed and tortured in the snow by the Finns, he had already pushed forward more than eighty kilometers from the border with his tank platoon.

While destroying several enemy tanks, it also broke through the Mannerheim Line in one fell swoop.

During the Great Patriotic War, he and his crew drove a brand-new KV heavy tank, using the classic tactic of pinching the head and tail to eat the middle, and wiped out the enemy in one hit.

Although the whiteboard three-level car enters the five-level room to fry the fish KV, the excellent room distribution mechanism has made a great effort.

But there are so many things like war, and who can guarantee that they will never encounter an opponent who is better equipped than themselves?

As soon as these words came out, Sun Desheng's eyes immediately flashed with golden light. His excitement was no weaker than when Fang Ziyi first heard Rudel's name.

In terms of the performance of the cicada tank, it is absolutely enough to fight the 95 light battle and the 97-type mid-tank. Even if the Japanese army has new equipment with stronger firepower and thicker armor in the future, its own airborne tanks will inevitably usher in a wave of upgrades.

The destruction of 20~30 cars is completely possible for your own car group.

It's a big deal, just fight a sticky and engage in a sneak attack, as long as you can win the battle and kill the enemy, discipline and glory are not important at all.

In fact, this is the same as the situation in a certain blood bar world, where people's official propaganda is a torrent of steel, galloping, and passionate. In fact, it is a squatting pit black gun, which takes time to shrink and blood pressure soars.

The real trump cards are all obscene old yinbi.

Of course, the premise of everything must be that the book can maintain the production capacity of the military industry. After all, there is a tank regiment at the headquarters, and there is a high probability that it will be expanded without restrictions in the future.

There is also a division of big killers in the sky, and these are potential "competitive" opponents.

Hey, there's not enough meat.

After a while, Sun Desheng pinched his eyebrows and emptied the messy thoughts in his mind.

"Thank you very much, Comrade Cui. The information just now is very important for the entire fighter fleet, and it gives us the goal of catching up and fighting. ”

"If you don't mind, I'll share with you some tips on how to use the Cicada Tank on the way, and try to help you improve the report to your superiors as much as possible."

Regarding the unintentional ending of the willows, Lao Cui is naturally very satisfied.

The things mentioned by Sun Desheng will become the capital for his meritorious service or promotion after returning to China. Just by providing a name and an as-yet-undetermined record, this wave of blood is earned.

It can only be said that Lao Cui still underestimated the heart of the Chinese who always strive for the first.

Just as Huang He wanted to act before Doolittle and Fang Ziyi wanted to surpass Rudell in the overall record, Sun Desheng also wanted to leave his name in the history of the world's military forces.

If you choose the wrong goal at the beginning, then the subsequent actions will inevitably be accompanied by anxiety and internal friction.

After all, the results of the armored forces during World War II were too much moisture.

Let's take a look at De San first, after the whole World War II, there were seven car groups with 120+ anti-sky destruction records, and there were more than a dozen weaker 100+, and it was even more common to destroy dozens of vehicles.

If you have less than 20 destroys, you won't even be eligible to make the list.

This feeling is like the Gallic chicken's annihilation of 100 million tigers in the north. If you don't look at the ending, you think that the axis won World War II.

The reason for this imagination is also very simple, in order to cooperate with the propaganda, the armored forces of De San often count the kill figures of the entire team on the head of a certain car group, and strive to mythologize an extremely elite Aryan Superman.

Of course, special periods will also be counted on everyone's body, and everyone will have a medal after the war, and they will have to have a point for lighting up a broken leg.

Coupled with the unique record inheritance system, it is difficult to create a 100+ record.

The ugly country is even more outrageous, and directly launched Lafayette Poole after the war. It is said that this man killed 258 armored vehicles and tanks during the war.

As for authenticity?

Anyway, I'm the winner, you can say whatever you like.

So if you think about it, the data from the north is more reliable. After all, they only have 52 kills on the top card, and they can enter the top 100 in the overall leaderboard with a single-digit record.

Just looking at this list, people who don't know still think that Desan pushed Lao Maozi to the AA line.

······

In a pleasant atmosphere, the pilot captain of this operation picked up the communicator in his hand and said to the rest of the crew in the channel:

"Attention crews! Attention each unit! The action begins! All transport planes take off in the predetermined order in turn! ”

Although the airfield where the 1st Marine Regiment is stationed, according to the standards of the Eighth Route Army at the present stage, it is a super-grade military airfield that can be used by heavy bombers or large transport aircraft.

But after all, it was a collective action of more than 30 four-engine transport planes, and if it was not properly arranged, there would inevitably be potential safety hazards.

What's more, the Hamilcar glider is so large that it is easy for accidents to happen before it is fully lifted off.

As soon as the words fell, the air overlord in which Li Yunlong was riding began to taxi on the runway with a slight sway, and the propellers of the four engines on both sides also turned faster and faster.

In order to facilitate control, the entire formation was divided into three echelons.

The first echelon consisted of transport planes that did not carry Hamilcar, and they needed to take off first to join the Air Division departing from Wusu Airport to guide the route for the subsequent crews.

After more than three kilometers of gliding, the second and third echelons took off with gliders one after another.

The whole take-off process is full of a sense of power, and there is a faint charm of flying bricks.

When all the transport planes formed a huge formation, the escorting Spitfire fighter group also immediately entered the combat position, and even though the airspace around Taiyuan was absolutely safe, the comrades of the 1st Air Division still maintained a high degree of vigilance.

The entire formation moved silently at a speed of 330 kilometers per hour at an altitude of 4,000 meters.

After more than 40 minutes of flight, the pilot captain looked at the map in front of him, and then ended the radio silence and said in the communication channel:

"We are about to book the airspace, all of them remain in formation, and the escort fighters do not change their altitude."

"Keep your eyes peeled and beware of possible enemy fighters, and all actions must be approved before they can be carried out."

"Roger!"

After making sure that everything was fine, the special steel cables on the transport plane began to unhook, and Hamilcar, loaded with heavy weapons and cicada tanks, began to glide.

The landing ground chosen by the airborne force was a relatively wide flat land, which was only to avoid a hard landing with no small risk.

Successfully completing the separation, the transport aircraft also began to descend in altitude in preparation for the delivery of paratroopers. White canopies bloomed in the air, slowly drifting towards the ground.

In the Huairen area, Pingchuan occupies 70%.

As long as there is no sudden strong wind, there will be no accidents during the parachute.

The mission ended successfully, and the air supremacy began to return under the escort of the Spitfire. After the end of this operation, they had to send the 1st Army Regiment to Suiyuan to deal with the puppet army led by King De, and they had to go back to prepare as soon as possible.

······

Forty kilometers south of Huairen, the 26th Division.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we still haven't been able to contact the Cavalry Group and the 110th Division. I have a foreboding feeling that the two lieutenant generals are likely to have met with an accident. ”

"The front army can be contacted, and General Gangcun has transferred two independent mixed brigades from Chahar and is moving closer to Datong along the railway."

"There are still dozens of kilometers left, and we are completely safe!"

After finishing speaking, the communications staff officer bowed his head and stood upright, waiting for the latest order from the commander of his division.

Obviously, Otozaburo Yano, who was beaten violently for several days by a column of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region, was not in a very good mood. He waved his hand casually, signaling that the other party would not wander around in front of him if there was nothing to do.

After a moment, he looked at the chief of staff on the side and asked with a serious face:

"How many samurai are left in the division, what is the situation with heavy weapons and armored vehicles, have the casualty reports been counted?"

"There are still dozens of kilometers away from Datong, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely not let us go easily. It is conservatively estimated that the division will experience at least two more large-scale battles. ”

After breaking through the main battlefield of the Second Xinkou Campaign, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region sent a large number of troops to encircle and suppress the 26th Division.

If it weren't for the fact that the poor Kou Mo chased and prevented the devils from fighting back to cause a lot of casualties to the troops, it would be a question of whether Yano Otozaburo and his party could evacuate from Heiyu.

The inquiry of the commander of his own division made the chief of staff of the 26th division sweat instantly. After a while, the old devil gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and replied with a sad face:

"The three main wings are all badly damaged, the 11th wing has only 500 people left, and the 12th and 13th wings are in relatively better condition, at least one full brigade strength."

"There is not one out of ten equipment in the field artillery wing and the mountain artillery wing, and the only thing that can be used is only three 75-mm body cannons."

"I have instructed the Engineer Wing and the Baggage Wing to support the three main infantry wings as soon as there is a battle."

As soon as these words came out, Otozaburo Yano only felt that his eyes were black, and he almost fainted.

The 26th Division was originally a Type B Division of the Third Wing with insufficient troops. Such an establishment emphasizes mobility, and the shortcomings of insufficient troops are exposed in positions and encounters.

But it's good now, it's been less than a month since he went south to fight, and there are less than 4,000 people left in one of his divisions, which is still a fart!

The old devil is now even beginning to doubt whether the remaining strength of his division can withstand the all-out attack of a main force of the Eighth Route Army.

However, there is really nothing Yano's Otozaburo can do, after all, during the period of transfer, the air raids overhead have basically not stopped, and there are tanks chasing from time to time.

Even if you replace it with Desan's armored grenadiers, it is estimated that you will have to shed your skin if you don't die.

"Okay, I got it. Contact General Okamura Ninji and urge the reinforcements who came to receive it. ”

"Hey, three divisions and regiments fought one Jinchaji Military Region and failed to take it. It seems that in the future, the sky in North China will change, and there will gradually be no living space for the locust army. ”

In fact, there is no need to be so pessimistic, after all, in the original timeline, the 26th Division encountered an attack by the Navy of the Ugly Country on the way to the Philippines.

Most of the division died in the belly of the fish, and only 23 survived.

Now it has more or less caused some trouble to the Eighth Route Army, which can be regarded as some gains. (End of chapter)
