Chapter 53 Publicly Kill the Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army Again!

"Open forcible killing, the new chief of staff of Watanabe of the North China Front."

After marveling at the monthly reward of 50 million silver dollars, Zhao Gang looked at the content of the cooperation.

Suddenly, Political Commissar Zhao smiled.

The unprecedented scale of the Battle of 100 Regiments also achieved unprecedented scale and far exceeded the expected results.

Not only cut off the chains of the devil's cage and regain all the territory eroded by the devil, but also further expanded, connecting the three base areas of Taihang, Taiyue, and southern Hebei.

Such a huge victory needs to be widely publicized.

In order to enhance the morale of the troops and enhance the confidence of the people in the victory of the war.

Let the people know that devils are not invincible.

The Xinhua News Agency is working overtime to collect materials and take photographs, and the General Staff Department is also fully cooperating in order to issue a propaganda report and then distribute it to the whole country.

Because of the friction of the preserved fruits, the refusal to cooperate, the suppression of the troops' newspapers, and the refusal to publicize the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the troops could only come by themselves.

Fortunately, there are now airplanes,

Newspapers can be airdropped to almost every big city.

Including the Shanghai market!

Yes, with the progress of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the control range of the troops has been greatly improved, and now the transport planes loaded with 500 kilograms of newspapers can already fly to Shanghai, drop the newspapers, and then return home.

There are also printing presses, which can print hundreds of thousands of sheets per day at full capacity.

And the open forcible killing here refers to building momentum in the newspapers in advance, so that the devils, the people of the whole country, and even people abroad know that the troops want to forcibly kill the chief of staff of the North China Front Army.

Then, under the heavy protection of the devils, kill this Watanabe Chief of Staff.

"What kind of support did Boss Lu give?"

Zhao Gang continued to ask.

Relying on the troops' own ability, not to mention the open and forcible killing of Chief of Staff Watanabe, even a secret assassination has a very low chance of success.

Or rather, almost impossible.

The chief of staff of the devil Watanabe is generally in the northern evaluation, and the security forces are strong, although the strength of the rear of the troops has increased greatly due to sufficient funds recently, but this kind of large-scale assassination has almost no success rate.

You must rely on Boss Lu's support.

In fact

The assassination of Chief of Staff Watanabe, the independent regiment sent people, and Boss Lu sent intelligence, equipment, and even battle plans.

"Provide detailed real-time location information on Chief of Staff Watanabe, the devil."

"Ten twin-engine transport aircraft, as well as radio-guided bombs."

Li Yunlong said the weapons and equipment for support.

"Twin-engine transporters?"

"Radio-guided bombs?"

Zhao Gang was stunned, and then asked emphatically:

"Guidance?"

Providing the detailed real-time location of Chief of Staff of Devil Watanabe, this is not surprising, the Devil United Flag cooperation, the same is true, as for how to do it, it doesn't matter.

Twin-engine transport planes he also understood.

It is estimated that it is faster than the Yun-5 and has a larger carrying capacity, what Boss Lu means is that this time he will use an air attack, use this transport plane, and load new weapons to attack and kill Chief of Staff Watanabe.

But what does this guidance mean?

"The so-called guidance is control guidance."

Taking advantage of Zhao Gang's lack of careful looks, Li Yunlong explained in detail in a smug tone.

"Control the boot?"

"Radio-guided bombs."

"Mean, a bomb that is radio-controlled and directed?"

Zhao Gang immediately understood the meaning of the name of this weapon, and immediately said in a shocked tone:

"That's not."

"Throwing in the air, can you hit the target accurately?"

"I see."

Why did the devils, who have absolute air superiority, watch the troops continuously transport grain from the Taiyue base area to southern Hebei and the Taihang base area, instead of bombing?

It's not because the accuracy of aerial bombing is actually very low.

At an altitude of several hundred meters or thousands of meters, even if there is accurate calculation and aiming, due to inertia, unpredictable wind deviation and other factors, the deviation from the target landing point is often hundreds of meters or even kilometers away.

And dive bombing with good accuracy, it is difficult to use in mountainous areas, not to mention, but also to face the threat of large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns.

The cost-effectiveness ratio is extremely low.

If the bomb landing point can be manually controlled by radio and the deviation can be corrected, this kind of bomb is simply an innovation in aerial bombing.

Zhao Gang is still strange,

Why did Boss Lu provide a transport plane, it turned out to be like this.

"It's not that easy."

Li Yunlong added:

"This kind of bomb, the conditions of use are very harsh, there are strict requirements for weather and terrain, if you need to hit accurately, you need the operator to guide in real time when on the ground."

"And the requirements for bomb guidance operators are very high, and it takes a long time to train to master."

"Who are you going to let on?"

Zhao Gang asked.

Trouble for operators is not a problem.

It is nothing more than increasing training and selecting good seedlings.

Training fuel and training bombs, Boss Lu has never been limited!

"Wang Gensheng."

Li Yunlong spit out a person's name.

"This kid can."

Zhao Gang also thought of Wang Gensheng.

As one of the best grenadiers in an independent regiment, Wang Gensheng, who had undergone systematic militarization training, showed amazing talent, especially in ballistics, and ranked first in the whole army in ballistics.

Come to think of it, Wang Gensheng can be qualified for this task.

Subsequently, Zhao Gang picked up the transportation information of this cooperation.

"Twin-engine transport aircraft."

"Using a 2,600-horsepower turbocharged star engine, with an empty weight of 10 tons, a maximum take-off weight of 21 tons, and a full load of 5.5 tons of supplies, it can fly up to 700 kilometers away."

"The maximum level flight speed is 550 kilometers per hour."

At this time, the aircraft information in Zhao Gang's hand, from the appearance, is more like the American C46 transport aircraft.

However, thanks to the system's 20 years of advanced material optimization, as well as engine optimization and structural optimization, the empty weight is only ten tons, which is nearly three tons lighter than the original.

The engine was also increased from two thousand horsepower to two thousand six hundred horsepower.

Coupled with the optimization of aerodynamics, the five-bladed propeller, under light load, the maximum level flight speed has been increased to 550 kilometers.

Reliability is greatly improved.

"Good stuff!"

Zhao Gang was sincerely admired.

In his opinion, compared to 50 million silver dollars per month, these ten aircraft that the Lu boss will provide follow-up fuel, lubricating oil, spare parts, and assign experts to teach the independent regiment to maintain and maintain are more precious.

Although the take-off and landing conditions are much higher than those of twin-engine transport aircraft, there must be a high-quality airport runway to take off and land safely, and the glide distance is relatively long.

But the full load of supplies increased to 6.5 tons.

Ten is sixty-five tons.

In the current Taiyue base area, equipped with two 120 mortars, a main force regiment of 2,500 people, a day of fierce combat, the amount of materials consumed is this amount.

Taking into account factors such as aircraft maintenance, it means that the troops are currently capable of maintaining a main force of 5,000 people, which is consumed by medium-level intensity operations at a distance of 700 kilometers.

This transport aircraft can also drop some supplies at low altitudes without umbrellas.

It also means that the troops have the ability to provide some logistical support to the troops in an emergency.

As for safety...

At the moment there is really no fighter escort in the troops.

But the maximum level flight speed is 550 kilometers, which is already faster than any plane of the devil.

As long as the pilots are vigilant enough and do not give the devil plane a chance to approach from the side, there will be no danger.

As for fuel and spare parts, during the service of these ten transport planes, Boss Lu will always provide them free of charge, until the ten transport planes are completely scrapped and cannot be put into service.

"Good stuff indeed."

Li Yunlong naturally also saw the role of these ten transport planes.

But

The independent regiment left these ten transport planes, and the independent regiment also needed to complete this cooperation.

Subsequently, Li Yunlong sent someone to report this mission to the brigade headquarters - relying on the independent regiment, it is impossible to mobilize the forces of the Northern Assessment, so it is still the old rule that this cooperation must be led by the headquarters.

In cooperation, it is stipulated that intelligence, logistics, etc., are not limited to the personnel of the independent regiment.

Of course

It is also the old rule that those who directly participate in the operation must be members of the independent regiment.

Meanwhile.

"You don't need to change into new clothes, this time it's a real shot of the battlefield, just let the soldiers tidy up their clothes, and the bullet holes don't need to be covered, they are directly exposed."

"yes, that's it."

"Where's the artillery?"

"That cannon can shoot, right?"

"Oh, then put the cannon in the center."

"You don't need a fighting stance, you can just sit on the artillery."

"Yes, yes, that's it, Captain Ding, you take the devil's command knife."

Everyone laughed.

Tiger Pavilion stronghold.

Lao Xia held the latest camera imported from the United States and instructed the soldiers to take pictures.

The soldiers of the new regiment were all very cooperative.

Ding Wei even sat on the barrel of the new anti-tank artillery with a golden knife, holding a freshly captured adjutant knife in his hand, smiling triumphantly.

All around, a new group of soldiers stood densely packed, some with bandages, some with tattered uniforms and even bullet holes, but all of them were smiling.

behind

It was dilapidated, with only a small half of the Huya stronghold remaining.

The only remaining machine gun hole can be seen as a broken crooked handle, and a corpse of a devil lying on the muzzle of the machine gun.

At the top of the most conspicuous dilapidated stronghold, the stronghold's Rising Sun Banner fell crookedly to the side, only a small half of it was burned, and the black smoke slowly came out, as if it was still burning.

And next to this Rising Sun Flag, the red flag of the Eighth Route Army fluttered in the wind.

The gaze continued to expand to the surroundings, revealing a long stream of corpses of devils.

"One!"

Press the shutter and the moment is frozen on the film.

And it won't be long before this photo will appear in Xinhua News and in the hands of ordinary people across the country.

···

Following.

Headquarters.

"Going to the North Review?"

Qian Dayun, who was trained in the intelligence department at the headquarters, received his first assignment.

Makeup for a businessman, go to the North Review,

Assist the local underground forces to assist in this combat mission.

"That's right, go to the North Review!"

This cooperation involved 50 million silver dollars per month, as well as 10 medium-sized twin-engine transport aircraft, so the Deputy General Staff personally assigned the task:

"Your task is to cover for the fighters of the follow-up independent regiment to enter the Northern Assessment."

"Yes."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Thousands of clouds stand up and salute. (End of chapter)
