Chapter 156 Whoever is a coward is a son of a bitch! (First update!)
Listen, what are these words?
A mere two hundred heavy artillery pieces?
This **** thing is a heavy artillery piece.
This is not a 60mm mortar!
If the 60mm mortar could talk, it would definitely say, are you polite?
what is wrong?
Before, I called her Xiao Tiantian, but now I am Mrs. Niu?
Seeing Meng Fangli rolling his eyes, Cun Yunsheng glared angrily.
“Did I say it wrong? Just two hundred heavy cannons? This old boy Stilwell is getting more and more stingy. Damn it, you still want me to work hard for this?”
Hearing this, Meng Fanxiao groaned.
“Commander, listen, aren’t there only two hundred heavy cannons?”
"If I remember correctly, the direct troops in the mountain city together don't have two hundred heavy artillery, right?"
“This is a heavy artillery, not a mortar, a grenade launcher or other junk.”
Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng let out a sigh, looked at Meng Fan and started to criticize.
“I’m sorry, you’re drifting now. Can’t you see mortars and grenade launchers?”
“Have you forgotten the time when you were blown up by grenades and mortars by little devils and jumped up and cursed your mother?”
“Tsk, tsk, if those generals of the motley army heard what you said, they would probably want to beat you to death.”
Who would have thought that Meng Fangliao said more confidently.
"Aren't you accustomed to this? Which army has such luxury as you?"
“Heavy artillery, tanks, mortars, and airplanes, tell me, who can do it?”
Who would have thought that Cun Yunsheng burst out laughing.
“How do I feel that you are complimenting me?”
“Yes, I’m just praising you. If those people in the mountain city were half as shameless as you, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be where we are today.” Meng Fangliao said with emotion.
When it comes to shamelessness, it has to be in one’s own group.
Although Meng Fangliao's words sounded strange, Cun Yunsheng was still very happy.
"Okay, stop talking so much nonsense. I'm going to Hsipaw to see Zhu Maoqin. Whether we can capture Lashio in one go this time depends on the performance of the artillery regiment. Watanabe, this bitch, wants to use cannon fodder. It's okay to consume our artillery shells and let him recruit troops. I want to see if he can succeed." After Cun Yunsheng finished speaking, he looked at Meng Fan again.
"Let all battalions and companies temporarily stop attacking. Don't stop the artillery battalion. There is also the tank battalion. Fire a few cannons from time to time. Don't let the little devil live too comfortably. This place is temporarily left to you. If there is any emergency, please contact me immediately. ”
“Yes, Commander, leave this to me, don’t worry.” Meng Fanlao nodded.
He has been with Cun Yunsheng for half a year and is familiar with the operation of the entire regiment. With the powerful firepower of the Sichuan Army, he will definitely not have any problems if he only defends but not attacks.
What's more, the Japanese army has been beaten to a pulp and wants to fight back?
Afraid of dying.
“Yeah.” Cun Yunsheng nodded, then got into the jeep and drove toward Hsipaw in the rear.
…
On the other side, Zhu Maoqin led two artillery battalions and finally arrived at Myitkyina after several days of trekking.
When he came to Myitkyina again, his feelings were different again.
The original Myitkyina became a mess due to the influx of refugees.
Myitkyina is now in order, and production has even begun to resume in many places.
Especially some fields outside the city are planted with rice.
Obviously, this place has slowly become orderly from the initial chaos.
All this is due to the Sichuan Army.
If it weren't for them, I'm afraid this place would have been occupied by the Japanese army and become an occupied area.
It would not be what it is today.
For a time, Zhu Maoqin felt infinite emotion in his heart. The Sichuan Army Corps was not only good at fighting, but was also prosperous in production.
This reminded him of what General Du Yuming once said. I regretted it at the time. As long as I persisted, the Sichuan Army could be assigned to the expeditionary force sequence.
It’s a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world.
However, Zhu Maoqin knew better that if it were classified as an expeditionary force, there might not be today's Sichuan Army.
Perhaps unknowingly, he became cannon fodder.
“Sir Zhu, I didn’t expect to meet again.” Lin Yi appeared at the right time, looked at Zhu Maoqin, stood at attention and saluted.
“You’re welcome, Staff Officer Lin.” Unlike when he faced Yu Xiaoqing, Zhu Maoqin still showed a certain amount of respect to Lin Yi, and did not become arrogant because the other party was a miscellaneous soldier or had a low military rank.
Actually, he cannot be arrogant.
Then what are they?
Perhaps not even as good as a motley crew.
Have you ever seen a motley army with uniformly beautiful weapons and equipment?
Have you ever seen a motley army with so many heavy artillery that no one uses them?
Is this a miscellaneous army?
"Who is this?" Lin Yi looked at the captain standing next to Zhu Maoqin and asked doubtfully.
“Master Yu, Captain He Shuguang, this time led the artillery battalion to support the brothers of the Sichuan Army.” He Shuguang took the initiative to step forward and salute.
In the past, he looked down on the Sichuan Army Corps. What could a cannon fodder regiment do?
Even if you go to Myanmar, you will still be used as cannon fodder.
It means that once a battle is over, it may be over.
result?
It’s really gone!
It's just that Yu Xiaoqing's Sichuan Army was defeated.
The situation of both parties has undergone earth-shaking changes.
This reminded him of the first time he met Cun Yunsheng. At that time, Cun Yunsheng was always calm and calm, as if everything was under control.
This made him very contemptuous. What does he know about fighting at such a young age?
Especially the other party's appearance made him feel that the other party was too pretentious.
Results prove!
I am too young.
There are really talented military strategists in this world.
The other party used his strength to prove that his analysis and judgment were correct.
If at that time, Yu Xiaoqing, Zhang Lixian, and himself could all listen carefully to what the other party said, maybe the outcome would have been different.
For a time, He Shuguang felt infinite emotion in his heart.
Looking at He Shuguang in front of him, Lin Yi had a strange expression, thinking of Zhang Lixian who had arrived in Hsipaw.
If we meet, how will the reputation of the Sichuan Army be dealt with?
But this has nothing to do with him, what is a headache is his group.
“Welcome, brothers, Master Yu.” Lin Yi said enthusiastically.
"Commander Lin, when are we going to set off? The military situation is urgent, so there is no need to reminisce about the past. It will not be too late to reminisce after Lashio is captured." Zhu Maoqin interrupted Lin Yi's idea of reminiscing.
“Twenty transport planes will arrive in Myitkyina in half an hour. You will follow that batch of transport planes to Hsipaw.” Lin Yi said without any nonsense.
“Twenty?” Not only Zhu Maoqin was confused, but even Zhang Lixian was stunned.
You must know that a C47 transport aircraft can carry 28 fully armed paratroopers. In the extreme case, it would be 60 naked soldiers, their weapons and equipment, and even a tank.
In other words, 20 transport aircraft can transport one regiment at a time under extreme circumstances.
They only have about 400 people at full strength. Do they need so many transport planes?
Perhaps seeing the other party's doubts, Lin Yi chuckled.
"Besides you, there are some other things that need to be transported. After all, there are many Japanese troops in Lashio. The frontline troops are insufficient and need to be transferred from Myitkyina. Weapons and ammunition, etc., all need to be transferred."
Hearing this, Zhu Maoqin nodded, that's right.
Otherwise, the more than four hundred of them could fill up ten transport planes without even having to support them.
After seeing the supplies that the Sichuan Army Corps wanted to transport, Zhu Maoqin was completely silent.
ˆBasically, they are mainly ammunition, and some are compressed biscuits, various cans, and rice fried in lard.
The transport plane began to fly towards Hsipaw with the busy ground crew.
Surrounding his transport plane were ten Spitfire fighter jets and four P38 fighter jets for escort.
"These are all fighter jets of the Sichuan Army?" He Shuguang's words made Zhu Maoqin not know what to say for a while.
"should be."
“It’s amazing. A regiment has fighter jets. It’s really good to have the Allied Forces Command at its back. We already have fighter jets.”
In this way, the two people arrived at the field airport in Hsipaw with envious eyes along the way.
At this moment, the Hsipaw Field Airport has long been turned into a transit warehouse.
There are busy people everywhere.
In order to ensure the safety here, fighter planes are always on standby in the sky to prevent Japanese sneak attacks.
On the ground, a whole battalion of anti-aircraft battalion was loaded with guns and live ammunition.
Mainly 88mm anti-aircraft guns and British MK4 anti-aircraft guns, as well as some anti-aircraft machine guns.
With the integrated air defense firepower network in the sky and underground, even if the Japanese fighter planes come, you will have to shake your head.
At this moment, Zhang Lixian was also in the airport pick-up team. He did not expect that the first thing Cun Yunsheng did when he arrived in Hsipaw was to see him. After some comfort, he took him to pick him up at the airport.
“Master, Master Yu has also sent someone here? Do you want me to get out of the way?” Zhang Lixian hesitated for a moment and then asked.
"What's there to avoid? Maybe Yu Xiaoqing guessed that you are here?" Cun Yunsheng said with a smile.
“Don’t think so much, I will take care of anything.”
"Yes, the group." Seeing this, Zhang Lixian didn't know what to say.
At this time, transport planes began to arrive over Hsipaw one after another, and then began to land slowly, while fighter jets continued to circle around to provide escort.
As the transport plane stopped, the hatch opened, and soldiers filed out one by one and began to assemble in the open space.
Ground crews quickly pulled the materials out of the transport aircraft.
For a time, the entire field airport was extremely busy.
When he saw Zhu Maoqin and He Shuguang, Cun Yunsheng stepped forward to greet them.
“We meet again, Commander Zhu, this is He Shuguang.” Cun Yunsheng said with a smile.
“Captain Cun is still so polite.” Zhu Maoqin said with emotion.
He Shuguang stood at attention and saluted the military salute, but when he saw Zhang Lixian behind him, his pupils shrank sharply.
“Hello, sir.”
"Well, you see an acquaintance, right? You two should catch up on old times first." Cun Yunsheng motioned to Zhang Lixian to receive him, and then began to talk to Zhu Maoqin about the situation on the battlefield.
He Shuguang looked at Zhang Lixian, unable to restrain the anger in his heart, and asked in a suppressed voice.
"Why? Master is not kind to you, why do you do this?"
"There is no reason. This is my own choice." Zhang Lixian said expressionlessly.
"I don't believe it. It must be the people from Juntong who threatened you. Why did you run away? After we got the news about you, we rushed to Juntong immediately. The master even got angry and wanted to kill him." He Shuguang asked in confusion. .
“It has nothing to do with the military. I’m even quite grateful to them. If it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t know what the meaning and mission of the military are.” Zhang Lixian shook his head and said.
"Asshole, you know what you said? Are you worthy of being trained by Master?" He Shuguang asked angrily.
At this moment, Zhang Lixian fell silent. Instead of answering his question directly, he explained.
“Now I have become an infantry battalion commander of the Sichuan Army.”
"What's so great, you were also the guard battalion commander." He Shuguang said with an angry look.
"It's different. There are more than 900 people in my infantry battalion." Zhang Lixian's words made He Shuguang open his mouth, not knowing what to say.
More than 900 people?
This is an infantry battalion?
This is a group, right?
Looking at He Shuguang's expression, Zhang Lixian guessed that the other person had the same expression as when he first learned the news.
An infantry battalion of more than 900 people?
“Fully beautiful weapons?” He Shuguang asked bitterly.
"Yes, all the beautiful weapons are in full accordance with the standards of the US military. The radio stations are all down to the company level. That is to say, there are even battalion-affiliated artillery companies, 81mm mortars and 60mm mortars are all down to the company level." Zhang Li Xian said as usual.
“Is this why you betrayed Master Yu?” He Shuguang asked again.
"No, you know what, Chief Cun is right. Our country has been destroyed, but we have managed to survive until now. We have lost such a large piece of land. These are all our responsibilities."
“There are not many Japanese troops at Nantianmen. There is only one regiment. Although the mountain is hollowed out, it can still be recovered as long as a certain price is paid.”
“But those people at Shangfeng don’t care at all and are still fighting for power.”
"Li Jiu, the commander of the military, is right. Instead of spending time in the sky above Nantianmen, it is better to come here to find the true meaning and mission of a soldier." Zhang Lixian's words made He Shuguang silent for a while.
He wanted to come here because he didn’t want to waste time?
He did not want to play the accordion every day to relieve the depression in his heart.
“Give me a position in your camp. When the time comes to attack Lashio, count me as one of them. I can also be a big-headed soldier.” He Shuguang said.
Huh?
Zhang Lixian looked at the other party in surprise.
“Aren’t you the person in charge of the artillery battalion?”
"What the **** do I know about artillery? Leave professional matters to professionals. I am still suitable for charging into battle. That one is more enjoyable." He Shuguang said angrily.
“Okay, I’ll arrange a death squad leader for you later, so don’t be afraid.”
“Whoever is a coward is a son of a bitch.”
On the other side, Zhu Maoqin couldn't help but swallow his saliva after listening to Cun Yunsheng's introduction.
Not two hundred heavy cannons!
But three hundred heavy cannons!
In that case, two battalions of artillery would be completely insufficient.
"Commander Cun, I have a suggestion. You may need to deploy a battalion of soldiers to assist our artillery battalion in some work, such as carrying artillery shells, digging positions, etc." Zhu Maoqin gave his own plan.
"No problem, there is an infantry battalion coming with you. They are newly formed. They will not go to the battlefield this time. They will be left to you to command. I only have one request: use heavy artillery to blast the lava. Guard the city, don't worry about the artillery shells, your task is to shoot them all," Cun Yunsheng said in a fierce tone.
"Yes." Zhu Maoqin responded subconsciously, not realizing that his military rank was higher than others.
There’s still time in the afternoon, try to come earlier today!
