Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 239

Chapter 239 Look how generous our real division commander of the Eighth Route Army is

 Inside Zhongtiao Mountain, Shaoyuan.

 In order to cooperate well with the 129th Division, annihilate all Japanese mobile units that break out of the defense line. Li Yunlong led the soldiers of the four regiments to set up defenses in advance and had already built positions outside the town.

The entire division is in a rear triangle formation, with the Northwest Army and Shaanxi Army in the front, and the First Marine Regiment and Shanxi-Sui Army in the rear.

 Such an arrangement is not because Commander Li has gone bad, imitating some people and using motley troops with preserved fruits as cannon fodder to attract the enemy's first and most ferocious firepower.

This formation was a tactic discussed by senior officials, and Brigadier Gao and Brigadier Wang also took the initiative to be at the front.

According to the two men, their soldiers have experienced the baptism of high-intensity enemy attacks and are best suited to entangle the Japanese who are attacking from the front in the form of positional warfare.

 The 21st Regiment is a supplementary regiment, and if there are too many recruits, its combat effectiveness will be relatively weak.

 The best option is to follow the Marine Regiment with the most mobility and combat effectiveness, set up a position in the rear, and be responsible for supporting the actions of friendly forces in the front.

In everyone's imagination, if the Shaanxi Army on the right discovers the enemy, the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army will detour to the enemy's flank to launch an attack.

If the Northwest Army on the left discovers the enemy, the Shaanxi Army will detour to the enemy's right wing. At the same time, Li Yunlong and Wang Dahai will also send troops to the high ground on the left to provide cover.

Of course, this tactic is based on the premise that the number of enemies will not be too large.

 Otherwise, the two fixed points of the triangle formation would be easily overwhelmed by a wave of Japanese troops, and all would be lost.

In the joint headquarters of the First Marine Regiment and the Shanxi-Sui Army, Wang Dahai paced indoors a little impatiently.

“Official, we don't have much ammunition, you have to think of a way.”

“The comrades have been fighting guerrilla warfare with the Japanese division for five whole days, and now there are no more than twenty rounds of ammunition left per person.”

“Mortars and rocket-propelled grenade shells are not very abundant. Once we get into a confrontation with the enemy, our two regiments will run out of ammunition and food if we can persist for half a day at most.”

As soon as these words were said, Li and Zhao looked at each other in a tacit understanding, and both saw the suppressed smile in each other's expressions.

Since Wang Dahai temporarily joined the team with the 21st Regiment, his speaking habits have changed. He is less arrogant and domineering like a warlord and more humble and polite.

 The atmosphere in their regiment has unconsciously become more harmonious, and even the soldiers themselves are not aware of it.

Although some of the bad habits of the Jin-Sui Army still remain to some extent, they can definitely be said to be completely transformed now.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Dahai has subtly changed the word brothers to comrades. The whole person looks very angry, and outsiders will definitely not notice it when his clothes are changed.

 Seeing his friendly troops in such a hurry, Li Yunlong was embarrassed to joke with them. He looked at the watch on his hand, and then said seriously:

"Old Wang, I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry yet. I have contacted our brigade headquarters using the radio of the 98th Army before, and the superiors will send a batch of supplies soon."

"That batch of weapons and supplies will be enough for the troops for at least a week. By then, let alone thousands of little Japs, we can afford even an entire independent mixed brigade."

“The time is almost here, let's go out with me and see what our superiors have prepared for us.”

Wang Dahai was completely confused by these words. Enough supplies for a division for a week is not a small amount. If it is pulled by truck or animal power, the transportation cost alone will be high.

Moreover, there is still fighting on the northeastern line of Zhongtiao Mountain. How can the transport team complete the assembly in a short period of time and pass through the war zone to Shaoyuan.

Just when he was puzzled, the buzz of a piston engine sounded in the sky, and the three people hurriedly ran out of the command post.

Wang Dahai raised the telescope in his hand and saw 25 large transport aircraft appearing in the distant sky. They were passing through the clouds and gradually lowering their altitude.

 Behind those planes, there are also huge wooden planes towing, which seem to have the effect of blocking out the clouds and the sun.

 At high altitude, there were still dozens of fighter jets vaguely escorting us. They never lowered their altitude and constantly patrolled the entire airspace, watching out for possible enemy aircraft.

 In the rear triangle position, the soldiers of the Northwest Army and the Shaanxi Army looked very panicked.

After all, no one knows where those transport planes and fighter jets came from, and which force they belong to. If they are bombers from the North China Front, they will be in trouble.

 But soon some sharp-eyed soldiers saw the identification marks under the wings of the aircraft.

Since joining the 1st Marine Regiment, they have often cooperated with the 1st Air Division, so they naturally recognize the appearance of the Eighth Route Army Air Force.

While other troops were still in a daze, the comrades of the 1st Marine Regiment had already begun to take action.

 Li Yunlong took out his portable communicator and ordered to the three battalion commanders: "Set the signal flare quickly! Let the soldiers prepare to direct Principal Chang and them to airdrop supplies!"

 In fact, there was no need for him to remind us. Everyone had already done the work of receiving and preparing the airdrop site at the rear of the position.

  Conspicuous cross marks have been placed on the ground with stones and wooden blocks. Several piles of burned firewood are rising up with thick black smoke to guide the transport planes in the sky.

 After the entire transport formation broke through the clouds, dozens of signal flares took off.

Each soldier of the 1st Marine Regiment carries a signal flare. It was not used much in this battle, so naturally there is enough stock. After receiving the signal, the air trains adjusted their course and prepared to perform airdrop operations.

 Five minutes later, the steel cables on the first transports were decoupled. The eight Horthas loaded with weapons and supplies began to adjust their landing angle, and they flew towards their destination silently.

I don't know whether it was the driver's problem or the wind direction, but the glider group was slightly off.

But it's not a big problem. Judging from Huosha's production process, it can be landed hard. As long as it doesn't hit the mountain, there is a high probability that no accident will occur.

What's more, the venue prepared by the 1st Marine Regiment is large enough. Everyone is a professionally trained soldier and has been very thoughtful.

 After all three batches of gliders were separated, the hatch at the tail of the skytrain opened and boxes of supplies were dropped. White umbrella flowers slowly descended from the sky.

 After the mission was successfully completed, a group of transport planes raised their altitude and began to return under the **** of Spitfire and Hurricane.

By now, even the slowest soldiers knew that supplies were coming. Looking at the cheerful warriors, Li Yunlong said very arrogantly:

"Nearly a hundred tons of supplies are enough for our four regiments. With these ammunition, I can hold them back even if the 41st Division comes!"

“You three regiments have always called me division commander, so today I'll let you open your eyes and see how generous our real division commander of the Eighth Route Army is.”

After finishing speaking, Li Yunlong took Wang Dahai to the area of ​​the glider. His colleagues from the 1st Marine Regiment had already begun unloading the cargo.

In Daiying's original design, a detonating device was installed between the second and third fuselage sections of the Horsa. After the aircraft lands, it can detonate and open its tail to facilitate the rapid entry and exit of personnel and equipment.

However, this device has certain dangers. If the glider is hit by explosives during flight, the aircraft will be destroyed and everyone will die.

Things produced by Awakening Yonghu System will naturally not have such big flaws.

Hosa of the 1st Air Division used a quick-release bolt. Paired with a caliper for cutting the control cable, it can be quickly disassembled while ensuring safety.

 For Wang Dahai, transport planes are all new, let alone a glider that can "fly" without power.

What's more, the Horsa glider was a new equipment developed by Dai Ying in September 1941 in the original timeline, and the first battle was two years later.

Even if the Marshal of the Royal Air Force comes to North China in person, he still can't tell who copied whose design.

Looking at the 27-meter-long wing, Wang Dahai said in a long-winded voice:

"Official, it turns out that what you said before is true. It seems that I am really a frog in the well. Your Eighth Route Army is more advanced than I thought."

“This thing is called a glider, right? How much can it hold?”

　　When they first came into contact with the 1st Marine Regiment, the soldiers of the 21st Regiment were still unwilling to believe that Yunlong descended from the sky. In their understanding, people who jump out of an airplane will definitely die.

Furthermore, Li Yunlong once said that any soldier from a Marine Regiment would be a company commander at first in the original unit, and there were even many battalion commanders.

Even if there are soldiers below the platoon leader, they are the type with special skills like Wang Xikui.

Wang Dahai didn't believe this at all. How could such an elite force be deployed on the battlefield behind enemy lines?

 But the facts are in front of him today, and combined with the performance of the 1st Marine Regiment in the past few days, he has to believe it even if he doesn't believe it. After all, it is both an airdrop of supplies and a glider transport, so it must be the boss's treasure.

After hearing the other party's question, Li Yunlong originally wanted to give a rough number. But Zhang Dabiao brought all the glider pilots to help his captain get out of trouble.

 Out of the fifty pilots, only one was slightly injured when landing, and the rest were all unharmed.

We are all acquaintances from the same base, and they are racing against time on the battlefield. Li Yunlong took the list without saying much and started to check for any good things.

But at this moment, there was an exclamation from the Jinsui Army transport team not far away.

“Wow! Did I read that right? Type 92 infantry gun! Can even this thing be air-dropped?”

“What is this? It looks like an anti-tank gun! Comrade, can you use this thing? Can you teach me!”

 “So many mortars! So many artillery shells! Commander! We are rich!”

 As soon as he said the last sentence, someone in the transportation team seriously corrected him. It is worth mentioning that the other party actually talked about the three major disciplines and eight points of attention.

Horsa transport aircraft has a lot of space and carrying capacity. The original design could even airdrop jeeps and QF 6-pound anti-tank guns.

Although Miss 75 cannot be transported, the Type 92 infantry gun and SA34 previously captured in the warehouse will definitely be easy to transport.

After regaining consciousness, Li Yunlong looked at the list. In addition to the conventional weapons and ammunition, ten Type 92 infantry guns and five SA34s were dropped this time.

　　Including medicine and food, the Marine Corps can definitely dig through the core of the earth!

I am asking for monthly tickets, but they are gone in the early morning.
