In Hunan Province.

Early in the morning, Principal Chang came to the 74th Army base with Xue Yue, Luo Zhengying and other senior generals to inspect the troops that had been equipped with American equipment.

The 74th Army was originally just a miscellaneous brand.

However, since the Battle of Shanghai, the 74th Army began to emerge. After participating in the Battle of Wuhan, the 74th Army had grown into the main force of the national army.

Up to now, after being included in the 57th Division, the 74th Army has become the top main force of the three A-type divisions under its jurisdiction, and its combat effectiveness is the best among the more than 70 armies of the National Army.

Of course, this is also related to the lack of a first-level army in the 41st Army and the 10th Army. Otherwise, the 74th Army would not be considered a leader at the first-level army.

The commander of the 74th Army was originally Wang Yaowu.

After Wang Yaowu was called on by Zhong Yi, Deputy Commander Shi Zhongcheng took over as the commander.

But everyone could see that even Shi Zhongcheng himself knew that he was just a transitional commander, and a new commander would come to replace him soon.

The reason for this is very simple. Shi Zhongcheng is not from Huangpu, but a graduate of Baoding Military Academy.

Based on the principle of employing people who do not value non-Huangpu, Principal Chang obviously could not hand over the main force of the 74th Army to a senior general who was not from Huangpu.

It was only because Zhong Yi was leaving Wang Yaowu and he also left several backbones of the 74th Army, such as Li Tianxia, ​​Zhang Lingfu and Qiu Weida, that caused a vacant first-level chief officer of the 74th Army. Therefore, there was no suitable candidate in the 74th Army to replace the commander, which allowed Shi Zhongcheng to temporarily take over as commander.

But when Principal Chang finds a suitable candidate, Shi Zhongcheng will definitely have to go elsewhere.

Although it was just a transition, Shi Zhongcheng was quite dedicated and the troops were very engaged in training.

This can be seen from the 58th Division's queue. Looking around, it is really a row in vertical direction, horizontal direction, and oblique direction. Principal Chang was very satisfied with this.

Just as the officers and soldiers of the 58th Division were performing a team list performance, an adjutant of the attendant hurriedly walked to Zhang Zhizhong and handed over a telegram.

After reading the telegram, Zhang Zhizhong's face immediately showed joy.

However, Zhang Zhizhong did not immediately transfer it to Principal Chang.

After the 58th Division was finished, Zhang Zhizhong walked to Principal Chang and whispered: "Principal, the 1st Aviation Division has just won the Amaranth Bridge victory, which severely damaged the 16th and 65th fighter jets of the Japanese 3rd Flight Regiment stationed at the Amaranth Airport. Even if it is conservatively estimated, it has blown up at least 50 fighter jets!"

Hearing this, not only Principal Chang, but also Luo Zhengying, who was accompanying him, also looked at him sideways.

"What?" Principal Chang was still a little unbelievable, and said, "Wenbai, what did you say just now? A great victory in Amaranth Bridge?"

"Yes, the 1st Aviation Division has won a great victory in Amaranth Bridge!" Zhang Zhizhong nodded and repeated the words just now.

Now it was finally confirmed that Principal Chang was happy at first, and he was unprecedented, but he was a little disappointed and felt a little tired while being happy.

Why? What exactly is this?

The same army, when Zhong Yi was not in Nanjing, he was defeated like a mountain, making the Japanese army become dogs. In the end, he even took off his military uniform and hid in the international security zone, and was almost massacred by the Japanese army like a pig and sheep!

But as soon as Zhong Yi arrived, the more than 100,000 national troops immediately transformed into an iron army that could not be defeated. Since then, from Nanjing to Wuhan, from Wuhan to Ganzhou, from Ganzhou to Zhejiang, I don’t know how many Japanese soldiers have been wiped out, but this army has never suffered any losses. This is the record of the 41st Army.

Now, will such a scene be staged again in the Air Force?

Before, the Air Force actually had a highlight moment, but as the war continued to deepen, the Chinese Air Force quickly declined. Even the Soviet Union assisted thousands of aircraft and hundreds of pilots was useless. In the end, it was beaten by the Japanese aviation force and could only harbor in Chongqing, Kunming and other places.

However, now, the 1st Aviation Division has won a great victory under Zhong Yi's command, defeating the 3rd Japanese Aviation Flight Regiment with its superior forces with its disadvantaged forces in one fell swoop. Moreover, the final record is still incredibly zero to fifty, which is simply unbelievable.

Does this guy Zhong Yi really have any magic power?

Why can it be turned into magic after being passed through his hands?

...

The 1st Aviation Division won the Amaranth Bridge victory, and Principal Chang was in a happy and sad mood.

However, on the side of Japan, whether it is Hirohito, Miyagi Miyaki Miyaki, Fushimimiya Hirokyo, Yamamoto Izuru and others, they are all worried.

Hirohito even held another imperial meeting for this.

This is enough to show Hirohito's emphasis on the battle situation.

Or, how much Hirohito attached to Zhong Yi.

"You guys, this is not just an ordinary air strike." Hirohito said worriedly in front of him, "Through this air strike, it is enough to prove that the combat guidelines of the Chinese Air Force have changed. From then on, they will no longer be an air force that can only defend passively, but have transformed into an air force that is brave enough to take the initiative!"

After pausing, Hirohito said again: "We must also realize that fundamental changes are about to occur in the Chinese battlefield. Due to the deep intervention of the US government, American equipment such as bazooka, aircraft, cannons and even tanks will be equipped with the Chinese army one after another. The combat effectiveness of the Chinese army will be greatly improved!"

Zairen, the palace palace nodded and asked, “Your Majesty means…”

Xianyuan Miyashi Zai-in was a little confused about Hirohito's intention. Is it necessary to start a war against the United States?

"Yes, just as you think, the empire must be fully prepared for this." Hirohito pointed out, and said, "Especially, the power of the aviation force needs to be increased by at least twice on the existing basis! Through this Sino-Suprem War, the importance of the aviation force has been fully demonstrated. I think it is necessary to make the aviation force an independent strategic force!"

This is also the change brought about by Zhong Yi, the little butterfly, which has upgraded the Japanese aviation army from the previous tactical army to an independent strategic army, and the wheel of history has deviated.

Xianyuan Miyaki Zairen felt it was unnecessary, but Fushimi Miyaki Hakukyu agreed with it.

Although Fushimi Miyagi Hirokyo is the Navy's command minister, his position is more inclined to the Navy's aviation side, and he has long expected that the aviation army can become an independent army.

At that moment, Fushimi Miyagi Hakukyu quickly said: "The old minister agrees with His Majesty's opinion. The aviation army should have been independent for a long time. This will not only help the full integration and utilization of aviation resources, but also encourage the aviation army to exert their initiative, improve or even create new air combat tactics, so as to play a more important role in the battlefield."
