After a period of study, Sun Desheng is no longer the reckless man who always punished soldiers corporally. In order to completely eliminate the tension in his ally's heart, he decided to chat with the other party for a few more words.

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

"I heard Director Huang say before that you were once the top commander of a group army, and your command even included two tank brigades. Are there any particularly powerful tankers in your army?"

After hearing the words Armored Ace, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Lao Cui's face involuntarily, but he adjusted his expression in a short period of time.

Having been in the Republic of China for so long, he has not developed any other skills, but he has learned a lot about the art of nourishing qi.

Wasn't it just that the Winter War was mentioned by the allies? What a big deal. He is about to return home with his great achievements, so what happened in the past should not be brought up.

The reason for the embarrassment just now is very simple, that is because at this stage, the north side does not pay attention to the performance of tankers at all. Even most grassroots commanders and fighters do not deliberately record damage data.

As for Armored Ace?

Don't make trouble, there is currently no such concept in the north. Even if you ask Lao Zhu, he will probably have to hesitate and explain for a long time.

Of course, Dai Ying and A Chou, both allies, do not have similar titles. After all, Armored Ace is the first propaganda method used by De San. Isn't cheating on him an eyesore for his commander-in-chief?

However, if you lose, you don't lose. The lack of armored aces does not mean that there is no elite crew.

After hearing Sun Desheng's inquiry, Lao Cui suddenly had an idea and thought of a fierce general.

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

"But there is a captain who I'm sure you'll be interested in."

"His name is Karonov. If nothing else, he and his crew have a record of at least twenty cars."

The Karonov mentioned by Lao Cui was an elite tank commander in the north during World War II. In a later game that was nicknamed the Blood Bar World, 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 force of his army was pinned down in the snow and tortured by the Finns, he had already led his tank platoon to push forward more than 80 kilometers from the border.

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

During the Great Patriotic War, he and his crew drove a brand-new KV heavy tank from the factory. They used the classic tactic of pinching off the head and tail to eat the middle, hitting twenty-two and annihilating all enemies.

Although the third-level whiteboard car enters the fifth-level room to fight fish KV, the excellent room allocation mechanism has played a great role.

But there are so many ifs in war, and who can guarantee that they will never encounter an opponent with better equipment than themselves?

As soon as these words came out, Sun Desheng's eyes immediately glowed with gold. His level of excitement was no less than when Fang Ziyi heard Rudel's name for the first time.

In terms of the performance of the Cicada tank, it is definitely sufficient for the Type 95 light combat and Type 97 medium tanks. Even if the Japanese army has new equipment with more powerful firepower and thicker armor in the future, its own airborne tanks will inevitably undergo a wave of upgrades.

It is entirely possible for your own crew to destroy 20 to 30 vehicles.

At worst, just use sap and carry out sneak attacks. As long as you can win the battle and kill the enemy, integrity and glory are completely unimportant.

In fact, this is the same as the situation in a certain blood bar world. What they officially promote is a torrent of steel, a rushing force, and passionate blood. In fact, it is a waste of time and money, and the blood pressure soars.

The real aces are all wretched old Yinbi.

Of course, all the prerequisites are that the notebook can maintain military industrial production capacity. After all, there is a tank regiment at the headquarters, which will most likely be expanded without limit in the future.

There is also a division of killing stars in the sky, these are potential "competition" opponents.

Alas, there is not enough meat.

After a moment, Sun Desheng pinched his eyebrows and cleared away the messy thoughts in his mind.

"Thank you very much, Comrade Cui. The information just given is very important to the entire combat maneuver company. It gives us a goal to catch up and fight for."

"If you don't mind, I will share with you some experience in using the Cicada tank on the way, and try my best to help you improve the report to your superiors."

Lao Cui was naturally very satisfied with the unintentional ending.

The things Sun Desheng mentioned will become capital for him to make meritorious service or be promoted after returning to China. Just providing a name and an undetermined record, this wave of blood profit.

It can only be said that Lao Cui still underestimated the Chinese people's desire to always strive for first place.

Just like Huang He wanted to act before Doolittle and Fang Ziyi wanted to surpass Rudel in total record, Sun Desheng also wanted to leave his name in the history of world military.

If you choose the wrong goal in the initial stage, subsequent actions will inevitably be accompanied by anxiety and internal friction.

After all, the performance of armored forces during World War II was too watery.

Let’s take a look at Desan first. After the entire World War II, there were seven crews with unparalleled destruction records of 120+, and there were also a dozen weaker ones with 100+, and it was common to destroy dozens of vehicles.

If your number of kills is less than twenty, you are not even qualified to be on the list.

This feeling is like a Gallic chicken wiping out 100 million enemies while the tiger is in the north. If I didn't watch the ending, I would have thought that the Axis won World War II.

The reason for such an imagination is also very simple. In order to cooperate with publicity, Tokusan's armored forces often count the kills of the entire team on the head of a certain crew, striving to mythologize an extremely elite Aryan superman.

Of course, special times will also be counted for everyone. After the war, everyone has a medal, and you have to get a share for lighting up a broken leg.

Coupled with the unique record inheritance system, it is difficult not to create a record of 100+.

Ugly Country was even more outrageous, launching Lafayette Poole directly after the war. It is said that this man killed 258 armored vehicles and tanks during the war.

As for authenticity?

Anyway, I am the winner, you can say whatever you like.

So if you think about it carefully, the data from the north is more reliable. After all, their top scorer only has 52 kills, and their single-digit record can make them into the top 100 of the overall list.

Just looking at this list, people who don't know may 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 on the channel:

"Attention all crews! Attention all crews! The operation begins! All transport planes take off in order!"

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

But after all, more than 30 four-engine transport aircraft are operating collectively, and if they are not properly arranged, there will inevitably be safety hazards.

What's more, the Hamilka glider is too large, and accidents are prone to happen before it completely takes off.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Air Overlord Li Yunlong was riding on shook slightly and began to slide on the runway, and the propellers of the four engines on both sides also turned faster and faster.

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

The first echelon consists of transport aircraft that do not carry Hamilka. They need to take off first to join the 1st Air Division departing from Wusu Airport to guide the route for subsequent crews.

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

The whole take-off process is full of a sense of power, and there is a vague charm of flying with a big brick.

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

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

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

"We are about to reserve the airspace. We should all maintain formation and the escort fighters should not change altitude."

"Keep your eyes open and be alert to possible enemy fighters. All actions must be approved before they can be executed."

"receive!"

After confirming that everything was OK, the special steel cables on the transport plane began to uncouple, and Hamilka, loaded with heavy weapons and Cicada tanks, began to glide.

The landing ground chosen by the airborne troops was a relatively wide flat area. This move was only to avoid a risky hard landing.

The separation was successfully completed, and the transport plane also began to descend in preparation for delivering paratroopers. White umbrella canopies bloomed in the sky, slowly floating towards the ground.

In the Huairen area, Pingchuan accounts for 70%.

As long as there is no sudden strong wind, almost the entire process of parachuting will be accident-free.

The mission ended successfully, and the Air Overlord began to return under the escort of Spitfire. After this operation is over, they have to send the 1st Marine Regiment to Suiyuan to deal with the puppet army headed by King De, and they have to go back and prepare quickly.

······

Forty kilometers south of Huairen, the 26th Division.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we still have not been able to contact the Cavalry Group and the 110th Division. I have an ominous feeling that the two lieutenant generals may have encountered something unexpected."

"We can contact the front army. General Gangcun has dispatched two independent mixed brigades from Chahar and is moving closer to Datong along the railway."

"There are still dozens of kilometers to go, and we will be completely safe!"

After finishing speaking, the communications staff member lowered his head and stood at attention, waiting for the latest order from his division commander.

Obviously, Otonzaburo Yano, who was beaten violently for several days by a column from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, was not in a good mood. He waved his hand casually, indicating that the other party had nothing to do and not wander around in front of him.

After a moment, he looked at the chief of staff aside and asked seriously:

"How many warriors are left in the division? What's the situation with heavy weapons and armored vehicles? Have the casualty reports been compiled?"

"We are still dozens of kilometers away from Datong, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely not let us go easily. Conservative estimates suggest that the division will have to go through at least two more large-scale battles."

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

Had it not been for the consideration of not chasing the poor enemy and preventing the Japanese from dying and causing heavy casualties to the troops, it would have been a question whether Yano Otonzaburo and his party could have evacuated from Heiyu.

The chief of staff of the 26th Division was instantly sweating due to the question from the commander of his own division. After a while, the old devil gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and replied with a tragic face:

"The three main regiments have all suffered heavy losses. The 11th regiment only has 500 men left. The 12th and 13th regiments are in relatively better condition. They have at least the strength of a full brigade."

"The equipment of the field artillery wing and the mountain artillery wing is very poor, and the only ones that can be used are three 75mm barrel guns."

"I have ordered the engineering regiment and the baggage regiment. Once a battle breaks out, they will immediately support the three main infantry regiments."

As soon as these words came out, Yano Otonzaburo's eyes turned black and he almost fainted.

The 26th Division was originally a Type B Division of the Third Regiment with insufficient strength. This kind of organization emphasizes mobility, which will expose the shortcomings of insufficient troops on the battlefield and in encounters.

But now it's good. It's been less than a month since we went south to fight, and there are only less than 4,000 people left in our division. What a fart!

The old Japanese even began to doubt whether the remaining troops of his division could withstand an all-out attack by a main regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

However, Yano Otonzaburo really had nothing to do. After all, during the period of transition, the air strikes overhead basically never stopped, and tanks were chasing him from time to time.

Even if they were replaced by Desan's panzer grenadiers, they would probably have to shed their skin even if they didn't die.

"Okay, I understand. Contact General Okamura Neiji and urge the reinforcements to come."

"Hey, three divisions fought against the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region but failed to win it. It seems that the weather in North China will change in the future, and there will gradually be no room for the Locust Army to survive."

In fact, Yano Otonzaburo did not need to be so pessimistic. After all, in the original timeline, the 26th Division encountered an attack by the Ugly Navy on its way to the Philippines.

Most of the division was killed, and only 23 people survived.

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