Even Ouyang Yun has to admit that due to historical and civilized reasons, Germany is at least three steps ahead of China in terms of its ability to continue the war. Should we scold the damn Qing government, or complain about those "traitors" who have forgotten their ancestors? It's very hindsight, and it's very cover-up, because no matter what, an unavoidable problem is that no matter what kind of shame, pain, or even congenital psychological inferiority complex that period of history has brought to the current people, it is the history of your country. It has become a piece of clothing that your country once wore, which can no longer be washed away or rid of. Historical reasons directly lead to the overall quality of the population, especially the understanding of modernization, lagging far behind Germany. Therefore, when the war enters a stalemate stage or drags on for a longer period of time, when competition for wealth begins, the nouveau riche character of China, no, perhaps I should say Xuebingjun, is clearly revealed.
With the participation of all the German Air Force's Fifth Flying Squadron in the war, the little air superiority that the Chinese Far East Expeditionary Force had achieved was instantly gone. Not only that, after suffering a big loss, Chen Chong would have backup arrangements for any combat missions now. , for fear that the Germans would play tricks and use decoy tactics, using some ordinary fighter planes to lure the Golden Eagles to fight, and then dispatch superior jet fighters to carry out encirclement and suppression. Therefore, although the country supported Chen Chong's flying brigade during this period, Chen Chong still felt that the available fighters on hand were far from enough, and at the same time there was a serious shortage of pilots.
In terms of training pilots, Ouyang Yun has actually done a good job. When the air power of the Xuebing Army was still weak compared to the Japanese army, he took precautions and started training pilots. However, the requirements for pilots were too high. The training cycle is too long. Therefore, when the aircraft industry is developing at a blowout, pilots have become a bottleneck limiting the power of the Chinese Air Force. The lack of backup pilots is not only a problem faced by the Far East Expeditionary Force aviation unit, but also by other aviation units. We are also faced with the same problem, and because the Far East Expeditionary Force now goes into battle more frequently, this problem becomes more prominent.
"Where is Zhang Hangyun?" Chen Chong asked his adjutant Jacob,
"They should be sleeping. They just came back less than an hour ago."
Chen Chong pondered for a while, and then said: "It seems that I am the only one who takes action personally."
Jacob's expression changed and he quickly said: "That won't work. At least there must be a wingman."
Chen Chong glared at him and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, do you want Zhang Hangyun and the others to die? I'm going to change clothes right now. You have someone check Y0113 quickly."
There have been many cases in the past where pilots were overtired and then shot down by some German rookie pilots. This has become the thing that Chen Chong is most wary of, so now he will try his best to avoid this situation whenever possible.
Chen Chong was so angry that Jacob didn't dare to talk nonsense. He could only lead people to inspect the Golden Eagle with the number Y0113.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, in a cotton field at the south end of a village called Dulianfu, about 400 kilometers away from Larbu Mountain, Guan Xinxiang and Liao Yongliang lay side by side, looking at more than two hundred people. A German supply station meters away was discussing in a low voice.
The rescue operation planned by Guan Xinxiang failed. After losing all their motor vehicles, they immediately lost the ability to track the main force of the German army. When they caught the tongue and asked about the movements of the main force of the German army, Commander Guderian at this time The troops have already opened a distance of nearly two hundred kilometers from them, and there are only nine people left in their group, including a wounded soldier. Now they don't even know whether Zhang Xuyun is dead or alive, and they have lost it again. The ability to track the main force of the German army, let alone save people, Guan Xinxiang saw that the decision to save people that he made with great determination might become a farce. After convening a plenary meeting and obtaining everyone's consent, he decided to make a decision If the jar is broken, we might as well carry out sabotage activities behind enemy lines.
"The Second Armored Group has the largest number of motor vehicles, so fuel supply must be the top priority of its logistics work. Let's take action on their supply depots. Brothers, if you say that you can go back alive now, you are just deceiving yourself. It's death anyway. Then Just ask for a big bang."
Guan Xinxiang and his fellow students did not know that although they could not continue the rescue operation because they could not get any information about Zhang Xuyun, but because Liao Songbing and others successfully escaped, Zhang Zizhong had now learned about the second detachment and What happened to Zhang Xuyun was also because a reporter wrote it as a battlefield communication and sent it back to China. As a result, it was seen by the sentimental Mei Lanshu. The latter went directly to Datian to listen to it, so even Ouyang Yun, Chen Cheng and others knew about it. this matter,
"Old Chen, what do you think?" During a military council adjournment, everyone talked about this topic, and then Ouyang Yun asked Chen Cheng,
"I think it is necessary for us to increase our support for the Far East Expeditionary Force. Commander Zhang and the others are fighting very hard."
"Mr. Feng,."
"I think Guan Xinxiang and his brothers should be commended. Although they violated military discipline, their comradeship is touching. If it were me, no matter whether Zhang Xuyun had any constructive suggestions for improving the performance of heavy snipers, I would Do whatever you can to save him from the Germans."
Ouyang Yun nodded, then glanced at the crowd and said: "I agree with Mr. Feng's opinion. Guan Xinxiang's behavior did violate military discipline, but this is not the main problem, because I believe that if Commander Zhang knows about the relevant situation, he will definitely send someone Our soldiers fought bloody battles to rescue Zhang Xuyun. They were fighting for the country, and the country had no reason to abandon any of them. As long as there was a little hope, I decided to set up a special special operations team and they would be responsible for rescuing Zhang Xuyun. And take charge of Xinxiang and others."
The whole audience was in an uproar, including Feng Yuxiang, who set up a special operations team to rescue a soldier and had to go to Soviet Russia. The cost was understandable. Everyone couldn't help but ask themselves: Is it really worth it?
Ouyang Yun must have guessed what everyone was thinking, and continued: "I know that this may not be worth the gain, that is, if the people are not rescued, they will be trapped again, but what I want to explain is that this is not the point, the point is Our attitude, we value and respect the determination of every soldier. The situation about Zhang Xuyun has been found out. He is the only son in his family. Everyone, please think about it, if one of you is Zhang Xuyun’s father , how will you feel now,."
Ouyang Yun actually does not need to elaborate on these additional explanations. As the war against Japan became more and more successful, his personal prestige became higher and higher. Now in the Supreme Command and even at the level of the entire country, what he said is actually Few people dare to object face to face anymore.
