Chapter 1404 combat readiness (today

After seeing off Yan Ling, Zhong Yi devoted himself to his busy work.

As the chief of staff in the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone, he has a lot of work, and some daily work can be handed over to his subordinates, but when it comes to the formulation of combat plans and the command and dispatch of participating troops, he, as the chief of staff, has to do it himself, not to mention that Zhong Yi is not at ease to let his subordinates do it on his behalf.

After all, the staff of the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone are basically all old officers like Peng Songling and Fan Songyao, and they basically have no modern combat theory or consciousness in their minds.

However, this is not the matter that Zhong Yi is most concerned about now.

What Zhong Yi is most concerned about now is the 1st Aviation Division.

The distance between Jinhua and Kunming is too far, and there is no way to contact each other by phone, so you can only pass the telegram.

Zhong Yi personally stayed at the communications office and contacted Kunming Aviation School through a military radio station.

Zhong Yi: Have Martins and the retired American pilot arrived in Kunming?

Zheng Shaoyu: He has arrived safely.

Zhong Yi: What about the 50 P-40 fighter jets transferred from Myanmar?

Zheng Shaoyu: It has arrived at Yangon Airport in Myanmar, and Martins has taken people to receive it.

Zhong Yi: After 50 P-40 fighter jets flew back to Kunming, they immediately transferred to Quzhou and stood by on standby through Hengyang Airport. Retired pilots, mechanics and ground crews who stayed in Kunming can come first.

Zheng Shaoyu: Are aviation school instructors and flight students accompanying you?

Zhong Yi: All of them are with you and exercise your flight skills in actual combat.

Zheng Shaoyu: Is Quzhou Airport ready for acceptance?

Zhong Yi: Don’t worry about the safety of the plane. Quzhou Airport is building a hangar, and the hangar is hidden among the mountains around the airport.

After contacting Zheng Shaoyu, Zhong Yi finally breathed a little relieved.

With the trump card of 50 P-40 Tomahawk fighters in his hand, Zhong Yi's confidence has greatly increased.

Otherwise, Zhong Yi would really not have many solutions when facing the Guard Division with a large number of heavy equipment.

But now, Zhong Yi dares to compete with the Guard Division. Although the Guard Division has a field heavy artillery brigade and several regiments, if the tactics are used properly, the sudden appearance of 50 P-40 fighter jets can completely kill the Japanese a heavy artillery unit that was too late and severely damaged or even destroyed the Japanese.

The only tricky thing is that intelligence shows that the Guards Division also has an anti-aircraft artillery wing.

If nothing unexpected happens, this anti-aircraft artillery wing will definitely be accompanied by the heavy artillery brigade, and may even be directly deployed around the heavy artillery brigade. If this is the case, it will pose a fatal threat to the P-40 combat agency that is raiding the Japanese heavy artillery positions. In any case, this is an anti-aircraft artillery wing!

It seems that I have to find a way to kill the anti-aircraft artillery corps of the Japanese!

At that moment, Zhong Yi said to the radio operator again: "Xiao Li, please accept the General Staff of the 10th Army."

After a while, the radio operator put down his headphones and reported: "I have been in contact with the 10th Army."

"Okay." Zhong Yi nodded and continued, "Tell Qiu Qingquan, and immediately transfer the special operations brigade to Zhuji, find out the exact location of the anti-aircraft artillery corps of the Japanese Guard Division, and wait for an opportunity to kill the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery corps."

The radio operator recorded Zhong Yi's orders, converted them into codes and sent them to the General Staff of the 10th Army.

...

In Yinjiang, the 10th Army Command.

According to Zhong Yi's order, the left-behind command and the forward command have been established.

However, Qiu Qingquan and Wang Yaowu still stayed in the Army Command in habit.

The two of them were gathering together to smoke, and their faces were a little unpleasant. The reason was very simple. The Japanese just tried it in Yinjiang and then retreated.

Qiu Qingquan said depressedly: "Brother Zuomin, I heard that all the Japanese warships at Yinjiangkou have been withdrawn. Look at this, the Japanese really plan to give up our Yinjiang."

Wang Yaowu said angrily: "You are the commander-in-chief of the advancement. There are wars to fight sooner or later. Why are you depressed? This time, the commander-in-chief of the left-behind is really miserable. This time, there will definitely be no war to fight."

"Bad." Qiu Qingquan snorted, "Can this be the same in Yinjiang and other places? Yinjiang is our home court, we are the protagonist, but in other places, our 10th Army is the supporting role. Even if we win, we are just making wedding clothes for others. In the end, we are not helping him with Lin Weiran?"

Wang Yaowu said coldly: "That's better than fighting without a war, otherwise we will change it?"

"You said it lightly." Qiu Qingquan stopped doing it immediately, "This was decided by the commander-in-chief. Can you change it just by saying that?"

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go to Jiangbei Railway Station. I heard that the first batch of 10 divisions of American equipment ordered by the commander-in-chief from the United States had arrived." After saying that, Wang Yaowu turned around and walked out.

"What's there to see about this? It's just a semi-finished product and it has to be sent to the arsenal for processing." Qiu Qingquan said.

"We have to look closely at the semi-finished products." Wang Yaowu said angrily, "I heard that the Finance Director Chen Guangfu is accompanying the special commissioner to inspect Jiangbei, so don't make any trouble."

When Qiu Qingquan heard this, a strange look immediately appeared on his face.

The special envoy Wang Yaowu mentioned was Nikola Chang, who was also the eldest son of the principal.

As a second-year student at the Whampoa Military Academy, Qiu Qingquan has no say in his loyalty to Principal Chang, but he has no loyalty to Nicholas Chang, and even a little contemptuous in his heart.

This is the norm in the army, and loyalty is never something that can be achieved without reason.

This is also the reason why those heroes in ancient times wanted to execute their lackeys before they died. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, wanted to execute Lan Yu before they died because he knew that Lan Yu would only be loyal to him, but not Zhu Yunwen, so once he died, Lan Yu would deceive the master.

Qiu Qingquan has this mentality, and Wang Yaowu is similar.

At that moment, Qiu Qingquan also stood up and said, "Brother Zuomin, I'll go with you."

The two were walking out together when they suddenly saw the chief of staff He Wenxi hurried in.

He Wenxi quickly saluted: "Chief of Staff, Deputy Commander-in-Chief, are you going out?"

"So it's Director He." Qiu Qingquan replied with a military salute and said, "Let's go for a walk in Jiangbei."

Regarding He Wenxi, Qiu Qingquan and Wang Yaowu didn't want to get close to each other because this person's style was too honest and honest to the point of being outrageous, and he didn't even attend the gatherings between his colleagues.

Qiu Qingquan and Wang Yaowu privately speculated that He Wenxi was likely to be a Communist Party.

However, the two did not go to Zhong Yi to report the matter, because this was just a guess after all.

He Wenxi said: "The chief officer just called and wanted to transfer the special operations brigade to Zhuji."

Qiu Qingquan said, "Since it is the command of the commander-in-chief, Director He, just do it, no need to ask us."

"This is not possible." He Wenxi said, while delivering the telegram, and said, "The Commander-in-Chief is not here, all military orders must be signed and issued by you and the two of you. The rules cannot be abolished easily."

Qiu Qingquan and Wang Yaowu could only sign the telegram.
