Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 378

Under the shining sunshine, thirty-seven Air Dominators are lining up for preparation.

The ground handling team not only needs to check the status of the airframe and engines, but also ensures that all transport aircraft can take off and land normally. It is also necessary to load the heavy weapons used by the 1st Marine Regiment into the cargo warehouse to provide guarantee for the combat effectiveness of the airborne troops.

Most transport aircraft have a Hamilka pulled at the rear. Its exaggerated wingspan means that it does not need much power to obtain enough lift to take off.

It is worth mentioning that these heavy gliders have great potential for upgrades.

If the troops need it in the future, they can also install two Blenheim engines of the same type on both sides of the wings to provide a certain amount of auxiliary power during towed takeoff and decoupled gliding.

Before the 1st Marine Regiment was about to set off, the infantry expert came to the station in person.

　　During this period, Captain Li Da would study with the deputy division commander when he had time, and the relationship between the two has already improved to a higher level.

“It seems that your group is ready.”

“Do a good job, let your allies see the spirit of our elite Eighth Route Army troops, and by the way, bring back Yano Otozaburo's command sword! The trophy you gave to CG has made me covet it for a long time.”

“But we must pay attention to safety and strive to end the battle with minimal losses.”

Hearing this, Li Yunlong nodded.

“Don't worry, this is not the first time our Marine Corps has carried out a mission. In a few days, I will deliver the old devil's knife to your office!”

“Okay! I'm waiting for you in Taiyuan with good news!”

While the two were talking, all the soldiers gathered. They lined up on the playground and were making the last preparations before departure.

After several expansions, the First Marine Regiment at this time had three airborne infantry battalions and two machine-borne infantry battalions. Coupled with multiple support companies including the combat maneuver company and a small number of troops directly under the regiment, the total number is just over 3,000.

If this kind of organization were placed on the European battlefield, it would be a fully equipped airborne brigade.

The mobilization work before boarding the plane was naturally left to the infantry experts. Looking at the comrades who were getting ready, he moved to the podium and said loudly:

“Comrades! Everyone should know the next mission! In a few minutes, you will be heading to the Huairen area to crush the last spark of the Mongolian army!”

“After this battle is over, we will liberate Suiyuan! Liberate all of North China! You will also become the pride of the army and fellow villagers!

“Now! Everyone! Get on board!”

The infantry expert's body is indeed a little thin, but his voice is very loud. Even without the blessing of a loudspeaker, most of the soldiers present could clearly hear his mobilization.

Just a few words made the comrades' blood boil, and they wanted to go into battle immediately to fight with the 26th Division.

Under the leadership of various grassroots commanders, all soldiers quickly boarded the aircraft in groups according to daily training. The whole process was smooth and smooth, which was extremely pleasing to the eye.

At this moment, Lao Cui, wearing the special military uniform of the Eighth Route Army airborne troops and holding a Mosin Nagant, came to Li Yunlong. After hesitating for a moment, Lao Maozi made an application that was not too excessive.

“Captain Li, can I switch to a glider with Captain Lu? I want to temporarily operate with the combat mobile company.”

“You know, the reason why I participated in this battle is mainly to observe the performance of the Cicada tank and glider in actual combat. Only with the experience of close contact can I report my work to my superiors.”

“Of course, it would be great if we could learn advanced combat experience in action.”

The learning Lao Cui mentioned was really not a polite word. He urgently needed experience in airborne operations.

Although the north had established airborne troops a long time ago, many offensive and defensive drills were conducted before the war broke out.

But so far, these paratroopers have only performed slightly in the Battle of Nomonhan and the Winter War, and have not participated in any large-scale military airborne operations. On the current Eastern Front battlefield, Lao Maozi, who is in passive defense, uses paratroopers more as fire brigade, or even as light infantry directly sent to fill the line.

Compared to the Eighth Route Army, which has a mature combat system, the North has been separated by a long distance on this track by its former little brother.

As soon as these words came out, Lao Li thought for a while and agreed to the other party's application.

"Okay, then you and Lao Lu can go directly there. I'll say hello to Sun Desheng in person in a moment."

"But you have to promise me that you will return to my guard platoon in time after the battle begins, but you must not follow the combat mobile company to coordinate the infantry and tanks."

"no problem!"

Since Lao Cui had no experience in parachuting before, Li Yunlong arranged for him to operate with the airborne troops in this operation.

Although the glider's protective performance is not as good as that of the air supremacy, fortunately, we firmly occupy Shanxi's air supremacy, and the enemy does not have an organized field air defense system.

In this case, it is safer to ride a glider.

After boarding the plane, Lao Cui was no longer as calm as before, and a bit of nervousness could be seen on his face.

Although he has a lot of combat experience, in a strange timeline, he even had a close encounter with a certain German major general named Ge Siyun in Stalingrad.

But, this is really my first time riding a heavy glider.

Seemingly sensing the uneasiness of his allies, Sun Desheng, who was chatting with his comrades, said very considerately:

"Comrade Cui, don't worry. We are absolutely safe before landing. The Japanese army has lost air supremacy in North China. Even if they are deployed in full force, they are no match for the **** formation."

“To ensure nothing goes wrong, the First Air Division dispatched five ace pilots this time! Not a single novice pilot!”

“You sit next to me when we take off later. Even if something unexpected happens, I will be able to help you as soon as possible.”

Maybe it was Sun Desheng's comfort that had an effect, or maybe it was the soldiers' calm state that infected Lao Cui. Lao Maozi nodded, and then looked at the Cicada tank in the belly of the machine. After all, this was one of the purposes of his trip.

You won't know if you don't look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.

Just taking a glance, Lao Cui widened his eyes, as if he had discovered something incredible.

“Huh? Who is the white ring on the barrel of this tank?”

Hearing this, Sun Desheng looked along the line of sight of his ally, then waved his hand very casually and said: "You said this, kill the ring."

“A circle means that a Japanese tank has been destroyed by me. In a sense, our crew is the first armored ace in the Eighth Route Army.”

After speaking, Sun Desheng and the surrounding soldiers showed proud expressions. The number of kills of their crew was naturally the result they achieved when they ran thousands of miles to rescue the Seven and a Half Route Army and faced off against the cavalry group.

The first ace crew is also true. After all, only the airborne tanks of the 1st Marine Regiment had ever been on the battlefield at that time.

As for the tank regiment at the headquarters?

They are still building roads throughout Shanxi to practice their driving skills. (End of chapter)
