"Is this the airborne force of the Eighth Route Army? It looks so luxurious!"

Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times.

Although Chen Jieshan heard some gossip about the Marine Regiment from the Second War Zone, he was still shocked after seeing Yunlong descending from the sky.

After all, airborne and airborne troops can only be afforded by established military powers in the current era. This method of combat is really unbelievable to Guo Preserved.

"Old Dong! You and the brothers from the 101st Division are following me! Hurry up and meet the friendly support troops."

"Lao Yuan and Lao Sun, your 31st and 32nd Divisions are responsible for the security. Immediately occupy the nearby favorable terrain. You must not let the Japanese disturb the commander's medical treatment."

"Quick! Everyone move!"

After Qiluban fell ill, Chen Jieshan temporarily took over the command of the army.

Although he was still filled with emotions, the situation of his eldest brother at this time no longer allowed anyone to waste time.

Under the leadership of several senior officers, the remnants of the 35th Army demonstrated strong execution capabilities.

Among them, the soldiers of the 31st and 32nd Divisions spread out and established a five-kilometer diameter warning circle with their commander as the center. The 500 soldiers of the 101st Division pulled carts towards the landing of the landing group. Click to run.

Those who have persisted until now are the elites of the Eighth War Zone, and the above arrangement is not difficult for them.

Ten minutes later, Chen and Dong met our leader Li Da under the guidance of Zhang Dabiao.

"Hello, Commander Li, I am Chen Jieshan, the commander of the Yimeng garrison. This is the commander of the 101st Division of the 35th Army. Thank you very much for coming all the way to support us."

"If there is anything you can do to help, just ask. The soldiers who came with me are at your disposal. Our entire army will cooperate with your work."

"I would like to ask if your troops carry any medicine."

Facts have proved that Chen Jieshan really remembered his elder brother's advice. As a well-known lieutenant general in the Republic of China, his sincerity and attitude are definitely sufficient.

As for military power, he knew that the other party would definitely not want it, so he just went along with the situation and was polite.

After all, the two sides have different arms and tactics. If the joint command is mixed together, the combat effectiveness will not increase but decrease.

Li Yunlong was a little puzzled at first. In his impression, Qi Luban was not a show-off person. There was no way he would not come out to greet the opponent after running thousands of miles to support him.

But after hearing the word medicine, Lao Li immediately understood that he must be in trouble. Moreover, the command of the army was actually given to Chen Jieshan, so he was most likely seriously ill.

"Commander Chen, please rest assured that our regiment not only carries a large amount of medicines, but also has experienced military doctors accompanying the army."

"Since Commander Fu's situation is not very good, let's skip the polite words and get down to business. There is no need to talk about military power. I believe in the strength of your eighth theater."

After speaking, Li Yunlong directly waved to the medical team at the rear and asked them to take the medical kit prepared in advance and set off with him.

Before leaving, he said to Mr. Dong:

"In addition to weapons and medicine, our group also brought a large number of cans. I will leave the distribution to you."

······

When everyone came to Qi Lu and a half, the other party opened his eyes with great effort. Although he was out of coma, his whole body was shaking all the time.

After seeing the friendly support troops appear, he held the guard's arm and stood up forcibly to shake hands with Li Yunlong, but soon fell down due to lack of physical strength.

"Captain Li, I made you laugh."

"Now I feel as if I have fallen into an ice cave and am shivering with cold. At other times I feel like I am living in a steamer and it is extremely hot. In the world of ice and fire, I really don't have the strength to entertain you."

"On behalf of the Eighth War Zone, I would like to thank you for your generous donation."

Qilu and a half's condition was far beyond Li Yunlong's imagination. Seeing how weak he was, he quickly waved to the doctors in the medical class to start consultation.

As the most luxurious unit in the army, the medical class of the 1st Marine Regiment includes Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and they are all experienced senior doctors.

After a short diagnosis, the comrades said solemnly:

"Captain, Commander Fu has malaria."

"Fortunately, we brought cinchona this time. At least we can ensure that the condition does not continue to worsen."

"Whether it's malaria or a thigh injury, if you want to fully recover, you have to send Commander Fu to a safe place to recuperate. His current condition is not suitable for continuing the march."

Malaria is a disease usually caused by unhygienic diet.

Once someone suffers from severe malaria in the desert, it can basically be determined that he has lost his combat effectiveness, and it will also cause a drag on military logistics.

It will be more serious if the commander also suffers from it, which will make the entire army leaderless.

After hearing the military doctor's diagnosis, Li, Chen and Fu all changed their expressions.

Li Yunlong was naturally thinking about the follow-up progress of the mission. The deputy general staff's order was to cover the seven and a half routes entering Lanzhou territory. Judging from the other party's current situation, it is God's blessing that they can cross Wuhai.

Chen Jieshan's idea is relatively simple. He is just worried about his elder brother's safety.

The most confusing thing at this time is the seventh and a half route. If we can't go to Lanzhou, where to recuperate becomes the biggest problem.

The border area will definitely not be considered. Going there would be like breaking up with the bald head. At that time, not only will he be homeless for the rest of his life, but he may also be implicated in the Eighth Route Army.

Just when Fu and Chen were worried, Li Yunlong suddenly spoke out his thoughts.

"I personally think that it is not a suitable choice for your 35th Army to go to Lanzhou."

"Although it is the headquarters of the Eighth War Zone, it is indeed a safe place. But on the way of retreat, you have to pass through the territory of Sanma, and there is a high probability of encountering danger."

"The order I received is to assist you in the transfer. The limit of what I can do is to deal with the pursuers behind you and replenish the supplies you need for the troops. It is not convenient for our regiment to enter Ningxia. You two should know the reason."

As soon as these words came out, the 7th and a half troops immediately fell into deep thought.

The reason why the 35th Army retreated to Lanzhou was because he had an agreement with the bald man during the winter offensive.

Once the pressure of the Mongolian Army's large-scale attack was too great, they would go to the rear along the Baolan Highway to rest and wait for the replenishment of troops to discuss the counterattack.

But now the situation has changed. When he was desperate, he contacted He Da Huzi of the 120th Division.

Based on the understanding of the 7th and a half troops about their own chairman, this move was definitely challenging the other party's endurance. The other party must be angry now, and may issue some impulsive orders.

If we are more pessimistic, the troops may encounter an organized and premeditated bandit when passing through the territory of the three horses.

Now there are less than 2,000 people left in the three divisions of the whole army, and they are all infantry without heavy weapons. Without the protection of the Marine Corps, they are likely to die in a foreign land.

The biggest problem at present is how to find a suitable position to avoid the limelight.

This time it was the chairman of his own party who was unkind first. After he calms down, he may have a chance to turn the tables. After all, it will be more difficult to lead the team if people's hearts are scattered.

What's wrong with doing my best to fight against Japan and defend the country?

Just as Qiluban frowned and thought, Li Yunlong broke the silence again and told his plan.

"How is Yulin? If I remember correctly, Commander Deng of the Shanxi-Shaanxi-Sui Border Region is an old acquaintance of yours. Given the relationship between the three of you, he should not refuse to take you in."

"There is our rear guard there. I can arrange a plane to send you to the border region first. Then I will ask Director Xiao to personally send you to Yulin secretly."

"What's more, the medical conditions in our border region are also good. We can definitely cure your injuries."

As soon as these words came out, Qiluban suddenly felt that there was a ray of hope. He and Commander Deng worked together in the northwest in their early years, and they had a deep comradeship and a good personal relationship.

As long as he stayed in Yulin for half a year, he could find a way to make a comeback.

In addition, it was very close to the border region, and if it didn't work, he could change camps, which was barely an extra retreat.

Now the remnants of the 35th Army are all his trusted troops. As long as the confidentiality measures are well taken, no one will know how he arrived in Yulin.

As for the problem of the soldiers, it is also easy to deal with. As long as they kill the Mongolian troops chasing them, they can return to the Houtao area to fight guerrilla warfare.

Among the major battle zones in Guosu, the guerrilla tactics of the Eighth Battle Zone can definitely be ranked in the top three.

After making up his mind, the face of the Seventh Route Army even improved a little, and he said to Li Yunlong with great gratitude: "Okay, then I'll trouble Captain Li to send me to Yulin."

After successfully solving a major problem, Lao Li showed his iconic big white teeth, and then took out a portable communicator from his waist to contact the communication squad.

For this operation, the Marine Corps 1st Regiment carried a high-power radio.

In this way, they can not only contact the border area and the Eighth Route Army headquarters, but also keep in touch with the Air Force 1st Division.

From the time they landed to now, only more than 20 minutes have passed.

According to the average speed of the escort formation and the transport aircraft, Captain Wang Hai and his men should not have flown out of Suiyuan, and there is still time for them to turn around and return.

"Send a telegram to the Army Morale Wizard and the Deputy Chief of Staff, and submit a copy of our combat plan to the superiors first. Then contact the escort formation of the Air Force 1st Division and ask them to come to the landing point to pick up people."

"Pass my order! The engineering platoon directly under the regiment headquarters will act immediately and clear a piece of open space for the fighter jets to land. The speed must be fast!"

"The parachute infantry battalion and the mobile combat company should be prepared. We have to deal with the pursuers behind us and cannot increase the difficulty of the task for the comrades in the Air Force."

······

Air Force 1st Division, Blenheim fighter escort formation.

"Alas, I didn't expect this mission to be so uneventful throughout. Not only did I not encounter the Japanese Army Aviation, but I don't even know where the armored forces of the Mongolian Army have died?"

"I thought I would have a chance to blow up a few tanks today, but it seems that I will get nothing in the last days of our Air Force 1st Division."

"Captain Wang, when will the Air Force 2nd Division be formed, and how many pilots can be assigned to me by then? To be honest, I am ready to show my skills!"

In this mission, Fang Ziyi acted as a bombardier with the escort formation.

After hearing the complaints of his team members, Captain Wang Hai, who was flying the plane, smiled and shook his head.

The North China Eagle is good in everything, but it is uncomfortable if it does not fight for a day. It wishes it could drop tons of bombs and rockets on the heads of the devils every day.

As for the Air Force Second Division just mentioned, it is the headquarters' expansion plan for the second half of this year.

With the unlocking of the decision "domestic fighter manufacturing", the Air Force First Division has added a close support aircraft. The two types of fighters make the command system more cumbersome.

What's more, there will be "domestic bomber manufacturing" at the beginning of next year. If we don't divide them into groups, it will be a mess.

In order to further improve the efficiency of command and train pilots who specialize in one field.

The headquarters decided to select comrades with ground attack talents from the Air Force Division 1 to form the Air Force Division 2, which is responsible for close ground support. The original Air Force Division 1 will focus more on gaining air superiority in the future.

Considering Fang Ziyi's outstanding performance and impressive record, the deputy commander-in-chief handed the burden of command to the 24-year-old North China Eagle.

Perhaps in the Red Army period, a division-level cadre in his twenties was not too exaggerated. But looking at the current Eighth Route Army, he is definitely a unique scorpion.

"Okay, stop complaining."

"It's good for us and the Marine Corps that we didn't encounter the enemy's armored forces and aviation."

"Being able to return home safely is better than anything else. You will command your own troops in the future. It's time to change your temperament and temper, and stop being a war maniac all day long."

Just as the two were chatting, the communicator responsible for receiving the message suddenly shouted loudly:

"Captain Wang, the Marine Corps sent a telegram!"

"Captain Li hopes that we will allocate a fighter plane to return and use the fighter plane to send the 7th and a half to the border area. The other party is not only injured but also sick, and needs to return to the rear area in time to recuperate for a period of time."

"Please instruct!"

Captain Wang Hai agreed to the application of the Marine Corps after a little thought.

The escort formation still has plenty of remaining fuel. Even if it returns to the border area now, it will have to find an uninhabited mountainous area to release some fuel. After all, carrying too much fuel during the landing process will pose a safety hazard.

Since we have to consume fuel anyway, we might as well do something serious on the way back.

After making the decision, Captain Wang Hai picked up the communicator beside him and issued an order:

"Attention, all crews! Attention, all crews! Now we need to return to the landing point of the Marine Corps 1st Regiment to perform a new mission."

"After arriving at the destination, my plane will land alone, and the rest of the crew will continue to be alert. The transport aircraft formation should not be too far away, just keep hovering at high altitude."

The above operations are all for safety reasons.

Although the location of the Marine Corps 1st Regiment has exceeded the combat radius of the Type 97 fighter, no one knows whether the Japanese have built a field airport in the Houtao area.

It is safer to act in a group without knowing the specific situation of the enemy.

After the entire formation turned around, Captain Wang Hai looked at Fang Ziyi who was doing nothing and said:

"Prepare to drop bombs, and clear the bombs before landing. I will find the Japanese armored forces and try my best to help you fulfill your last wish before promotion."

Alas, I am so cheap, I changed more than half of it
