After completing the plan to bombard the airport, Li Yunlong became the boss.
Duan Peng is solely responsible for the task this time.
As for the mission of the 1st Cavalry Battalion, it is mainly responsible for supporting the Sword Squadron and artillery.
In the next few days, the 1st Cavalry Battalion, the Sword Squadron and the 1st Artillery Battalion were all busy preparing to bombard the Japanese planes.
Whether this mission can be successful or not depends on whether the Sword Squadron can quietly capture a Japanese turret and then lead the bombardment.
Li Yunlong, on the other hand, is planning to go to southeastern Shanxi to meet with the head of the headquarters.
Li Yunlong handed over to Xing Zhiguo the responsibility for Boss Chen's door-to-door delivery.
Starting from the third day, for several days in a row, the plane arranged by Boss Chen to deliver goods was flying in the sky in northwestern Shanxi every day.
This time, Li Yunlong made a lot of money. There were 432 Xinyi Tuan cars alone.
In addition, the first batch of fuel is 100 tons, and subsequent fuel will be delivered to your door after the weapons and ammunition are delivered.
Zhao Gang was busy setting up schools and political and ideological education in the army, and was so busy that he never touched the ground.
Li Yunlong approached Chen Feng and hoped that Boss Chen would arrange a transport plane. He wanted to go to southeastern Shanxi to meet with the head of the headquarters.
In this winter, a trip to the southeast Shanxi headquarters on horseback would take at least ten days and a half.
But flying is very fast, and it only takes a few hours to get there.
Chen Feng was also very considerate of Li Yunlong, and arranged a transport plane and four Saber fighter jets for Li Yunlong to escort him the next day.
There are 4 Saber fighter escorts. As long as they don't encounter the Japanese's large-scale fighter group behind the scenes, the aircraft formation is safe.
morning.
Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou boarded the plane at Dagu Town Airport, and the transport plane took off immediately, escorted by four fighter jets, and flew towards southeastern Shanxi.
This was Li Yunlong's first time flying. He was a little airsick at first, but he finally got better after a while.
Hearing the roar of the plane's engine, Li Yunlong looked at the ground through the plexiglass of the plane window and saw that the mountains and rivers on the ground were gradually getting smaller.
The straight-line distance between Dagu Town Airport in northern Shanxi and Yangcun Airport in southeastern Shanxi is about 300 kilometers.
After nearly an hour's flight, Li Yunlong's plane approached Yangcun Airport in southeastern Shanxi, and the plane began to descend.
Not long after, the transport plane and fighter jets landed smoothly at Yangcun Airport.
Looking at the familiar scene outside the plexiglass of the airplane window, Captain Li was filled with emotion.
This Yangcun Airport was built when the New Regiment was in southeastern Shanxi.
"Exactly one hour." While Li Yunlong was sighing, Wang Dehou looked at the watch on his hand, smiled and sighed to Li Yunlong, "it's faster to fly."
This was also the first time Chief of Staff Wang Dehou took a plane. In this hour, his mood experienced changes from excitement at the beginning, to worry, fear of the plane falling, to putting his heart back in his stomach.
Li Yunlong's mood changes were similar to those of Chief of Staff Wang Dehou.
After all, it was his first time to fly on this airplane, so Li Yunlong was still a little scared. If it fell from mid-air, he might not be alive.
"Of course." Li Yunlong raised his head, "The maximum speed of this thing can reach more than 300 kilometers per hour. What is the concept? We have to march for several days and get there in an hour on it."
Li Yunlong was extremely satisfied with his first experience of flying. In the entire Eighth Route Army, there were not many people who had flown.
"That's why you, the leader, are so proud that you asked Boss Chen to arrange a special plane pickup and escort."
Wang Dehou said happily: "Even I got lucky and got on a plane."
"Of course." Li Yunlong said in an arrogant tone, "You don't even know what the relationship between me and Brother Chen is? Brother Chen doesn't even give me the face of Chiang Kai-shek, he only gives me the face of Li Yunlong."
While the two were talking, the plane had already stopped on the secondary runway and the cabin door was opened.
Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou loosened their seat belts, stood up and walked to the door of the plane. They had just stepped off the plane.
Then he saw a large group of the Eighth Route Army coming towards him. Li Yunlong quickly took a closer look. Who else could it be if it wasn't the head of the headquarters and the chief of staff?
Not only the head of the headquarters and the chief of staff, but also the division commander, division political commissar and 385 brigade commander, the head of the Taiyue Military Region and the 386 brigade commander, the director of the political department and other senior leaders also came.
After receiving Li Yunlong's telegram yesterday, the head of the headquarters went to the airport in person to greet him early in the morning.
Behind the leaders were all security personnel with American M3 submachine guns hanging on their chests. These submachine guns were handed over to the headquarters by Li Yunlong, who specifically gave them to the head of the headquarters' security battalion to protect them.
Li Yunlong suddenly felt a little flattered. He seemed to be a bit proud, didn't he?
How could He De alert so many senior leaders when he was the commander of a regiment and the chief of staff of a regiment?
"Li Yunlong!"
"Ha ha……"
"Why, you don't recognize us?"
Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou were stunned when the loud laughter and loud voice of the 386 brigade commander came to them in the wind.
Hearing this voice, Li Yunlong was instinctively frightened. He then thought that the new regiment was now directly under the headquarters and was no longer in the 386th Brigade's battle order, so he laughed and rushed forward.
When the two sides came closer, Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou saluted with a standard military salute.
Li Yunlong: "Hello, leaders!"
Wang Dehou: "Hello, leaders!"
The heads of the headquarters gave Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou a military salute in return.
"Haha, Li Yunlong, I haven't seen you for half a year. You are getting more and more energetic and strong!"
The leader laughed, with a sincerely happy expression on his face, and lightly punched Li Yunlong in the chest.
Over the past year, Li Yunlong quit smoking and drinking. He ate meat almost every day. He trained with the Sharp Sword Squadron, and his physique became stronger and stronger than before. In addition, he worked hard to learn cultural knowledge and military theoretical knowledge, making Li Yunlong exude With a high-spirited temperament, Li Yunlong is a martial arts practitioner. His eyebrows exude the unique spirit of Chinese martial arts practitioners, coupled with a strong killing aura in his body.
Some headquarters officers were secretly sizing up Li Yunlong. They saw something called the general's demeanor in Li Yunlong.
Darling, this is serious.
It’s been a while since we last seen each other, but Li Yunlong actually has this kind of temperament?
There were officers there who were surprised and whispering to each other.
After laughing, Li Yunlong said: "There is nothing we can do. Our new group has good food. When will the leader go to the new group and taste the food of our new group?"
"I've long heard that your new regiment's food supply is the best in our Eighth Route Army."
Li Yunlong was joking, but the leader said seriously:
"When I get the chance, I will definitely go to Xinyi Tuan and taste your Xinyi Tuan's food."
The New Regiment was originally a basic regiment. Whether it was weapons, ammunition or food, it was all handled by the New Regiment itself.
Although the head of the headquarters takes the lead in promoting the spirit of thrift and hard work, even if Xinyi Tuan eats meat every day, it is still Li Yunlong's ability, and others can't say anything.
Besides, there are enough new regiments to support the brother troops.
When the New Regiment was still in southeastern Shanxi, the leader wanted to taste the food of the New Regiment, but he was too busy and never had the chance. Later, after the New Regiment attacked Taiyuan and went to northwestern Shanxi, there was no chance.
"Li Yunlong, the boss was talking about when we could see you during dinner a few days ago."
"It's only been less than three days, and you've already flown here by yourself."
The chief of staff on the side looked at Li Yunlong with appreciation in his eyes and said with a smile.
The Chief of Staff has always had a gentle, refined and easy-going attitude.
Next, Li Yunlong greeted the chief of staff, division commander, brigade commander, and headquarters staff one by one.
The brigade commander and division commander gave Li Yunlong a bear hug directly.
Today, Li Yunlong is very popular throughout the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
Wang Dehou also greeted the chiefs and the combat staff at the headquarters.
"Old Wang, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you look fatter and stronger than before."
A combat staff officer from the headquarters pulled Wang Dehou and spoke with envy.
At the beginning, the head of the headquarters asked them, the operational staff officers of the headquarters, who would be willing to serve as the chief of staff of the new regiment.
While the combat staff members were hesitating, Wang Dehou took the lead. After all, being a combat staff officer at the headquarters is much better than being a regiment chief of staff.
However, the current combat staff have some regrets. Since the new regiment arrived in northwestern Shanxi, it has been a series of battles and victories.
Now it has grown to 40,000 people. The chief of staff of the 40,000-person elite unit and the combat staff of the headquarters are far behind.
"I'm not bragging. Ever since I joined the New Regiment as chief of staff, I've been drinking wine and serving canned beef every day."
"Haha, I can hardly walk."
The corner of Wang Dehou's mouth curled up. Not to mention how comfortable he felt, fortunately he didn't hesitate at the beginning, otherwise the position of chief of staff of the new regiment would have been someone else's.
Although this statement is bragging, it is true that Xinyi Tuan eats well. His body has become stronger because he not only eats well, but also exercises more regularly.
"Hey, Lao Wang, your gun has also been changed?"
A combat officer with sharp eyes saw that Wang Dehou's gun holster was not the same twenty-shot box gun as before.
"That's right, I changed my gun." Wang Dehou took out the pistol from the holster, weighed it in his hand, and said with a smile, "The M1911 pistol originally produced by the Colt Company in the beautiful country has a caliber of 11.43 mm. It is very powerful and It is reliable, durable and easy to maintain. All the generals of the beautiful country also use this kind of pistol. Next time you return to the headquarters, I will give one to each of you."
A combat staff officer didn't believe it: "Really or not, such a good gun, you are so generous, give one to each of us?"
"Our New Regiment has more of these guns." Wang Dehou said in a disdainful tone, "Every commander above the squad leader will have one."
"Dear me, your new regiment is too damn rich!" Another combat staff member exclaimed with his eyes widened.
Wang Dehou smiled slightly, where did he go?
If the leader's golden desert eagle is revealed, why not blind your eyes? That's not called a pistol, it's called a hand cannon.
