After driving away the 1st Division stationed in Datong.

Li Yunlong ordered the second battalion commander to lead a combined battalion to garrison Datong.

Afterwards, he took the rest of the troops back to northwest Shanxi.

After the main force of the army stationed in Mongolia was eliminated, the 1st Division became a lone army, and it was also a lone army that was disabled.

Facing the main force of a new regiment of the Eighth Route Army heading north, the 1st Division had no choice but to flee.

Otherwise, it will only end up being eliminated.

In other words, the cost of street fighting with the 1st Division was too high, otherwise Li Yunlong would have ordered Ding Wei and Kong Jie to eliminate the 1st Division.

In field battles, the battle loss ratio between the Eighth Route Army in North Shanxi and the Japanese army was at least 1:5.

The damage ratio in street fighting is 1:1.

It's not worthwhile to fight in street battles with the 1st Division.

Under the protection of the guard battalion, Li Yunlong first took a jeep and returned to Dagu Town one step ahead of the rest of the army.

today.

It was the day when the new flying group took action, so of course Li Yunlong wanted to join in the fun.

It was almost noon when we rushed to Dagu Town Airport without stopping.

Arriving at the control tower of Dagu Town Airport, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou had already arrived, looking through the glass of the control tower.

Only 20 Saber fighter jets, 20 A20 attack aircraft, and 5 reconnaissance aircraft were parked on the runway.

"Lao Li, are you back so soon?"

Seeing Li Yunlong open the door and walk in, Zhao Gang asked in a surprised tone.

Since no fighting broke out, Li Yunlong did not order a telegram to Zhao Gang and the others.

"The 1st Division ran away without even a token resistance. It's so damn boring."

"Where's the fucking No. 1 Class A division, that's it?"

Captain Li's tone was disdainful, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes and expression.

Although the escape of the 1st Division was expected by Li Yunlong, not a single shot was fired. Li Yunlong was still a little disappointed when he heard that the main force of the new regiment was heading north and fled from Datong.

What is the 1st Division afraid of?

Why don't you dare to fight with the new group with real swords and real guns?

Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou on the side smiled and said nothing.

How badly the 1st Division was beaten by the Eighth Route Army. Knowing that the main force of the Eighth Route Army would not run away unless the Japanese in the 1st Division were all pigs.

Li Yunlong looked at the tower with a telescope and asked: "Chief of Staff, what is the situation now?"

"Report to the leader."

Wang Dehou replied smoothly:

"The flight group developed a two-stage attack plan."

"In the first phase of the attack plan, 12 Saber fighter jets, 20 A20 attack aircraft and 5 reconnaissance aircraft were dispatched to conduct raids on the western suburbs of Peiping Airport and Japanese aircraft in the airport."

"At the same time, eight Saber fighter jets were dispatched to intercept and kill Yoshimoto Seiichi in the air. After completing the mission of intercepting and killing Yoshimoto Seiichi, these eight fighter jets bombed Taiyuan Wusu Airport."

"The second stage of the attack plan is to dispatch 20 Saber fighter jets and 20 A20 attack aircraft to simultaneously conduct air strikes on Baoding Airport, Xinxiang Airport, and Jinan Zhangzhuang Airport."

Li Yunlong nodded and expressed no opinion.

He is only responsible for issuing combat missions. As for combat plans and emergency plans, he leaves it to Li Shaorong's flying brigade to formulate them themselves.

Although he has studied the military theory of "Air Dominance", Li Yunlong is only responsible for issuing combat missions and will not interfere with the command of the flying brigade.

After all, Li Yunlong couldn't fly a plane, and it was a taboo for military strategists to have an outsider guide an expert.

After a pause, Wang Dehou continued: "Currently, all aircraft have been filled with aviation fuel and aviation bombs and are preparing to take off to perform missions."

Li Yunlong looked at his watch with calm eyes.

According to Boss Chen's information, at this time, the plane on which the old devil Yoshimoto Seiichi was taking off had already taken off from Peiping Airport.

After a while, fighters, attack planes and reconnaissance planes slowly entered the main runway, accelerated suddenly, and soared into the sky with the roar of their engines.

After arriving in the air, fighter jets, attack aircraft, and reconnaissance aircraft quickly formed a flying formation.

Eight Saber fighter jets and two reconnaissance aircraft flew in a flying formation towards Taiyuan in the south.

Another 12 Saber fighter jets, A20 attack aircraft and 3 reconnaissance aircraft flew in a flying formation towards Peiping in the northeast direction.



at the same time.

Taiyuan.

First Army Headquarters.

In the office, Yoshio Iwamatsu was wiping the Lieutenant General's sword given by the Emperor in his hand.

After suffering such a huge defeat, someone must be responsible for it. Iwamatsu Yoshio wanted to commit suicide several times, but he failed to do so.

Because he felt that he was not responsible for the defeat of the First Army and the Mongolian Army.

The person who should commit seppuku most was the commander of the North China Front, Okamura Neiji.

Although he didn't say it, Iwamatsu Yoshio had long been dissatisfied with Okamura Neji.

He suddenly sympathized with Yoshimoto Seiichi, thinking that the commander of the First Army was so easy to take. To put it bluntly, he was a scapegoat who took the blame for Neji Okamura, and might even lose his life.

Putting the blade back into the scabbard, Yoshio Iwamatsu stood up and headed to the operations hall.

However, the war room was deserted, not even a single person was there. What was going on?

If the Eighth Route Army attacks at this time and the combat staff of the First Army are not here, it will be very bad.

"idiot!"

Iwamatsu Yoshio immediately cursed angrily, called the Japanese lieutenant in charge of the headquarters security, and asked:

"Where are the combat staff in the War Office?"

"Report to the commander!" Lieutenant Japanese did not dare to hide anything and quickly lowered his head to report: "The chief of staff, deputy chief of staff and operational staff all went to the airport to greet the new commander, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi!"

"Nani?"

When Yoshio Iwamatsu heard this, he was immediately furious. Yesterday, he was very happy.

But today, a group of combat staff ignored him, the current commander of the First Army, and ran to greet the new commander.

Even Masao Hanatani and Masao Miyazaki went, which made Yoshio Iwamatsu feel chilled.

It is estimated that not long after he left the First Army, this group of people would forget about him.

At this moment, Yoshio Iwamatsu wanted to kill someone, but when he thought about it, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi was just a poor man.

Yoshio Iwamatsu sighed and waved his hand, signaling the Japanese Lieutenant to leave.



at the same time.

Over the Jizhong Military Region, a KI57 transport aircraft, escorted by four Zero fighter jets, flew towards Taiyuan.

On the KI57 transport plane were Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi, Major General Hironaka Tadao, and several combat staff officers.

It was suspected that there were senior agents of the Eighth Route Army lurking in the headquarters of the First Army.

Therefore, Yoshimoto Teiichi planned to give his first order after taking office as the commander of the First Army.

That is to replace the chief and deputy chiefs of staff of the First Army, as well as all the staff officers of the First Army.

This is the condition for Okamura Neji to agree to Yoshimoto Seiichi.

At this time, five Japanese aircraft were about to enter Shanxi.

For fear of being attacked by the Eighth Route Army's anti-aircraft guns on the ground, the aircraft not only flew very high, but also did not fly in a straight line.

With a serious expression on his face, Yoshimoto Teiichi withdrew his gaze from the window glass and looked at Tadayo Hironaka standing aside.

He asked: "Hongzhong Jun, when you get to Taiyuan, do you want to be the chief of staff of the First Army, or a brigade commander?"

Hongzhong Zhongnan said: "I will follow the arrangements of your Excellency the Commander!"

Yoshimoto Sadashi said: "Then I will combine the remaining soldiers of the 14th Brigade and the 18th Brigade, plus some new recruits, to form a new mixed brigade and give it to you to command, the candidate for the Chief of Staff of the First Army , when I arrive in Taiyuan, I will apply to General Okamura Neiji."

"Thank you for your cultivation, Commander. I am honored to be able to follow you to fight for the empire and for the Locusts in the north and south. I am honored to hold such a humble position!"

Hearing this, Hongzhong Zhongnan burst into tears of gratitude and bowed his head in thanks.

But when Hongzhong Zhongnan lowered his head, he couldn't help but have a bitter expression.

On the surface, he, a major general with no real power in the Kwantung Army, served as either the chief of staff of the First Army or the brigade commander of a mixed brigade after arriving in Taiyuan.

Whether he is the chief of staff of the First Army or the brigade commander of the mixed brigade, they all hold real power and have unlimited glory.

but.

The news of the abolishment of general officers in the First Army has long spread throughout the Imperial Army. Even if he is a major general without real power in other front armies, no general is willing to join the First Army.

Hongzhong Tadao has no choice. He and Yoshimoto Sadao have long been tied to the same rope, and they both prosper and suffer.

"Yoshi!"

Although he had not yet taken office, Yoshimoto Teiichi smiled with satisfaction when he heard Tadayo Hironaka call him commander.

Although Hironaka Tadao's tactical command ability is average, and his ability as chief of staff is also average, he is good at getting things done and is obedient, and he is highly used by Yoshimoto Sadai.

After being the chief of staff for so many years, I can finally be the commander this time!



at the same time.

In the northern sky, eight Saber fighter jets and two reconnaissance aircraft of the Eighth Route Army formed a flying formation.

Under the leadership of Wang Hexin, instructor of the New Regiment Flying Brigade, they flew towards Taiyuan.

Learned the time when the reconnaissance plane taken by Yoshimoto Sadai arrived at Taiyuan Wusu Airport.

Li Shaorong and Wang Hexin formulated an interception plan to shoot down Yoshimoto Sadichi over Taiyuan.

First, after the Japanese transport plane lowers its altitude, its maneuverability becomes worse and it is easier to complete the mission.

Secondly, you can kill the new commander of the Japanese First Army in front of the Japanese, then blow up the Japanese airport, ride on the face of the Japanese Fifth Division and hit the Japanese hard in the face.

Although Wusu Airport has deployed 20mm Type 98 cannons, it is not a big problem for pilots.

As for flight captain Li Shaorong, he personally led 12 Saber fighter jets, 3 reconnaissance aircraft and 20 A20 attack aircraft to Peiping to carry out the mission of bombing Peiping's western suburbs airport and Japanese aircraft.

at this time.

Wusu Airport.

Yamamoto Kazuki, Miyazaki Masao, Hanatani Masaru, the 14th Brigade Commander Major General Motosen Kaoru, the 18th Brigade Commander Major General Naka Naga Taro, and the 41st Division Commander Lieutenant General Shimizu Noriyuki.

As well as some assistant officers of the First Army and staff members of the headquarters, they all gathered at Takesu Airport, looking to the east sky in anticipation, preparing to welcome the new First Army Commander, Lieutenant General Yoshimoto Sadichi, to take office.

After about 20 minutes, there was some buzzing sound in the sky.

A group of Japanese officers quickly raised their binoculars and took a look.

A transport plane and four fighter jets appeared on the horizon, flying towards the airport.

The faces of the Japanese officers immediately showed smiles.

Even Kazuki Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this time Lieutenant General Yoshimoto's flight formation to Taiyuan may change its route at any time, and even Li Yunlong has nothing to do.



(I saw some friends saying that it was impossible for the Japanese Army to have Zero Fighters during World War II. This is correct. It is indeed impossible for the Japanese Army to have Zero Fighters. Let me explain, this is the world of Bright Sword. Although it is not in the TV series, it is The Zero Fighter appeared several times in the original book, so I used the World of Swords as the standard, otherwise the Japanese aircraft would be too weak and not worth seeing. By the way, please give me a recommendation and a monthly ticket, the follow-up will be more exciting!)
