Another transport plane flew in, and ten masters in blue clothes got off the plane. These are the maintenance personnel arranged by Boss Chen.
Responsible for the repair and maintenance of aircraft, training of aircraft repair and maintenance personnel of the Eighth Route Army, and training of ground crews.
at present.
Dagu Town Airport is served by 200 ground staff trained by Boss Chen.
Hangars and oil depots have been built, and a large amount of fuel and aerial bombs have been stored.
These masters in blue were arranged by the ground crew captain to rest in the airport dormitory.
Li Yunlong led Zhao Gang, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and others towards the apron.
During this period, Li Yunlong looked at 20 Saber fighter jets and 20 A20 attack aircraft. The smile on his face could not be suppressed, and the corners of his mouth were curled up to the base of his ears.
Although the A20 attack aircraft is a light bomber with a crew of 3-4 people during combat, it only needs one pilot to fly away.
You don't even need a pilot to fly the plane.
There is a backup joystick under the A20 attack aircraft.
During a battle between the Soviet Union and Germany, a Soviet A20 attack aircraft was on a bombing mission against the Germans. While flying over a small town, it was targeted by German anti-aircraft guns.
The pilot flying the A20 attack aircraft parachuted out regardless of his teammates.
Of the other two crew members in the plane, one acted as an eye and the other operated the backup joystick. They successfully drove the plane back to the airport with the help of the backup joystick, which was truly miraculous.
By the time Li Yunlong and others arrived at the runway next to the tarmac, 50 pilots had already lined up.
These pilots are young, all in their early 20s.
And they all had at least a high school degree or above, and most of them had a college degree. Some of them even dropped out of school when the Japs came when they were still in college.
Across the country, underground parties have their own channels to develop patriotic young intellectuals and transport them to YA.
As the Eighth Route Army fought consecutive battles in Shanxi, it killed 20 Japanese generals and annihilated more than 100,000 Japanese soldiers.
More and more aspiring young people are willing to go to YA and join the Eighth Route Army in the base areas behind enemy lines in North China. "Going to YA" has even formed a trend among young people.
These 50 student pilots are the best ones selected.
A group of student pilots, wearing flight combat uniforms and flying helmets on their heads, looked at Li Yunlong with firm eyes.
Although they were studying at overseas military bases, Boss Chen's instructor told them all about the victory of the New Regiment and the Eighth Route Army this year.
"Report to the leader!"
The leader, Li Shaorong, saluted Li Yunlong with a bang:
"All student pilots have assembled. 50 people are expected to be present. Please give instructions!"
Li Shaorong was the infantry battalion commander who took the pilot students to overseas military bases.
Sun Desheng led half of the cavalry battalion of the New Regiment, but Sun Desheng and the cavalry battalion only trained for three months before they learned to drive tanks and fight in tanks, and returned after graduation.
This Li Shaorong is a kid from a wealthy family, although his family background is not as good as those pilots from aristocratic families in the National Army.
But he had a good education environment since he was a child, and his family even hired a martial arts master to teach him martial arts. It can be said that he has both civil and military skills.
When he was in college, Li Shaorong came into contact with the underground party, participated in patriotic student demonstrations, and was an advanced element among students.
Later, the national army suppressed the student and worker movements, and the Japanese invaded China in an all-out way, so Li Shaorong was organizationally assigned to YA.
After studying at the Anti-Japanese University, Li Shaorong took a few people to develop behind enemy lines, and soon he raised an army of several hundred people.
Because they were betrayed by the traitors, Li Shaorong's troops were ambushed and captured by the Japanese and suffered heavy losses.
But soon Li Shaorong changed places and made a comeback, and the size of his army grew to more than a thousand people. Just when the organization was preparing to give him a regular army designation.
He was recalled to YA.
The emergence of Boss Chen, the rise of Li Yunlong and the New Regiment, and even the entire Eighth Route Army, brought a completely different change to Li Shaorong's life trajectory.
Li Yunlong's voice was neither loud nor soft: "Take a break!"
Li Shaorong glanced at Li Yunlong, with a touch of heat in his eyes, turned around and said loudly to the pilots: "Take a break!"
brush!
All the pilots stretched out their left feet in unison, and their movements were uniform as one.
Looking at all the pilots, Li Yunlong looked very satisfied. These pilots were all treasures of the Eighth Route Army. Even the pilots with the worst grades would not be replaced by battalion commander Li Yunlong.
Moreover, when we first went to overseas military bases, some of these student pilots were very thin and looked malnourished.
The faces of these current pilots are all glowing with good nutrition, their eyes are clear and translucent, and their expressions and eyes are full of confidence and perseverance.
It seems that Brother Chen's people have taken good care of these pilots. The expression on Li Yunlong's face became more and more satisfied:
"good!"
"When I went there, I took a plane, and when I came back, I took a plane. It seems that everyone learned their skills from Boss Chen."
"We, Lao Li, are also an intellectual now, and our culture is no worse than those of you here."
"When you went to overseas military bases to study, I told you that I, Li Yunlong, envied your luck and wished I could trade my position as regimental commander with you. I also wanted to become a pilot, fly fighter jets and bombers, and blow them up.
Motherfucker."
"But as soldiers, it is our bounden duty to obey orders. We bear different responsibilities!"
"And you, my boys, you will be the first batch of pilots of the Eighth Route Army, but you will definitely not be the last batch."
"Now that you have learned your lesson and come back, go to the battlefield and kill those little fucking bastards for me."
"I, Li Yunlong, look forward to the day when you, flying fighter jets and bombers, will drop the aerial bombs and napalm bombs of our Eighth Route Army in Tokyo, Japan, and on Mount Fuji!"
Speaking of this, the gazes of all the pilots suddenly became a little hot, and their blood boiled.
Since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, Chinese aircraft have indeed flown over the Japanese mainland.
It was a plane belonging to the Nationalist Army, but what it dropped was not bombs but leaflets.
Japanese planes flew through China's airspace and dropped aerial bombs on our cities and towns at will. Every Chinese soldier hopes that one day he can drop aerial bombs on Japan's mainland.
These student pilots who have learned their skills and returned are no exception, and their desire is even stronger.
Now with the help of Boss Chen, the hope of bombing the Japanese mainland will be achieved in a short time.
Looking at the pilots with burning eyes, Li Yunlong suddenly shouted loudly: "Kill the Japanese!"
"Destroy the bandits!"
The pilots shouted in response.
"Kill the Japanese and destroy the bandits" was what Li Yunlong said when he personally sent the pilot students onto the transport plane. It was also the inscription on the Yunlong sword equipped by the new regiment of cavalry.
"Now, please ask Political Commissar Zhao to announce the appointment of the headquarters!"
Li Yunlong glanced at the smiling Zhao Gang beside him and said loudly.
Zhao Gang took out a piece of paper from his chest pocket, looked at the pilots, and then read:
"With immediate effect, a new regiment's flying brigade has been established, with 1 fighter squadron, 1 bomber squadron, 1 transport aircraft squadron and 1 reconnaissance squadron. The flying brigade is organized at the battalion level, and the flying squadron is organized at the company level."
"Comrade Li Shaorong serves as the captain of the flying brigade, and Comrade Wang Hexin serves as the instructor of the flying brigade..."
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Gang announced the names of several squadron captains, as well as deputy squadron captains and instructors.
The new regiment's flying brigade, also the first air force unit of the Eighth Route Army, was officially established.
Because currently only the Dagu Town Airport in Xinyi Group has a large amount of aviation fuel and aerial bombs.
Therefore, these 50 student pilots and 50 aircraft can naturally only land at Dagu Town Airport.
The headquarters followed suit and organized these 50 student pilots and 50 aircraft into a new flying group under the command of Li Yunlong.
certainly.
The headquarters can also bypass the headquarters of the new regiment, obtain command authority of the flying group, and order the flying group to perform tasks of supporting fraternal forces.
The Eighth Route Army's air force is organized into flying squadrons, flying groups, flying regiments, flying brigades and flying divisions.
The scale of 50 aircraft can actually be organized into a flight group with 2 flight groups under its jurisdiction.
However, the New Regiment is a regiment, and it has a regiment-level flying regiment under its jurisdiction. Obviously, it cannot do this.
It doesn't hurt to organize 50 aircraft and 50 pilots into a flying group. After all, among the infantry battalions, cavalry battalions and artillery battalions under the Eighth Route Army, which one is not regiment-level?
After the appointment was announced and the pilots were settled, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others took the car back to the new regiment headquarters in Zhaojiayu.
The battalion commanders also returned to their respective homes. Today everyone witnessed the new group of aircraft and pilots. All battalion commanders were very motivated.
From now on, when fighting against the Japanese, we will have air support!
Ding Wei and Kong Jie also followed Li Yunlong to the new regiment headquarters.
As soon as they entered the door, Ding Wei and Kong Jie saw the map on the table. There were several locations on the map that were obviously circled by red pencils.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked closely and saw that the circled locations were all Japanese military airports in North China.
There are Taiyuan Wusu Airport, Beiping Xijiao Airport, Henan Xinxiang Airport, Baoding Airport, Zhangjiakou Airport, Jinan Zhangzhuang Airport, etc.
Ding Wei narrowed his eyes, looked at Li Yunlong, and said impatiently: "Old Li, are you planning to bomb the Japanese airport?"
"That's right!"
Li Yunlong nodded and said in a stern tone:
"Strike first to gain strength, strike later and suffer disaster. Before the enemy knows that our Eighth Route Army has pilots and planes, blow up the enemy's airport first!"
Kong Jie also had a burning gaze and asked: "Old Li, when will we do it?"
The Eighth Route Army planes bombed the Japanese airport. Just thinking about it makes me happy.
As for bombing the Japanese mainland, it would be hundreds or thousands of times more enjoyable than bombing the Japanese airport, but Kong Jie could only think about it at the moment.
Planes that take off from China to bomb the Japanese mainland and return must at least be long-range strategic bombers.
There are only a handful of countries in the world that can carry out long-range strategic bombing.
"Quickly!" Li Yunlong said in a stern tone, "Before bombing the Japanese airport, I must first kill a Japanese lieutenant general and a Japanese major general!"
"Japan Lieutenant General?" Ding Wei asked with a focused gaze, "Who?"
