When Li Yunlong returned to the regiment headquarters, his eyes were as bright as light bulbs and he said with emotion:
"Finally, there is almost a warship business..."
As a general, Li Yunlong's vision is now completely different. He knows that if he wants to enrich the country, he must first strengthen the army.
A strong country must not only have a strong army and air force, but also a strong navy.
As early as more than a year ago, Boss Chen revealed to Li Yunlong that there would be warship business in the future.
But now the warship business has finally arrived.
The warship business is similar to before. If you kill the Japanese warships, or the Japanese naval officers, and the Japanese army officers managing the warships, you can obtain warships, which are the most advanced and powerful warships in the world.
Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong and smiled slightly: "Old Li, it seems that you have to start studying the military theory of commanding naval operations, especially the landing operations."
Before leaving, Boss Chen also said that in a few days, books on military theory on sea control and command of naval operations would be delivered.
Although studying these things does not allow an officer to have rich combat experience in commanding the navy.
But you can have a clear understanding of commanding naval operations, so that you don't have a blind eye and don't know anything.
Li Yunlong thought about it carefully: "We can study the landing operations. Forget about commanding the naval operations. Our old Li is just an infantryman and can't do the work of the navy. Asking me to be the principal of an aviation school is just trying to catch up.
."
Having earned a warship this time, the Eighth Route Army will definitely select some soldiers as naval cadets to study at Boss Chen's military base.
The Eighth Route Army will definitely establish a navy by then.
If Li Yunlong was asked to be the commander of the navy, Li Yunlong would definitely not do it.
If the head of the headquarters had asked Li Yunlong to be the Air Force Commander of the Eighth Route Army that day, Li Yunlong would definitely not have done it.
He was just the principal of an aviation school, and it was a part-time job, so Li Yunlong had no choice but to agree.
Li Yunlong doesn't need to worry about the rest. He only needs to be responsible for the aircraft, technology, instructors, fuel and aerial bombs needed by the aviation school.
As for the preparation and management of the aviation school, the headquarters will report it to YA and select a smart and capable vice principal to manage it.
Li Yunlong looked at the people around him: "Are you interested in managing the navy?"
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Boss Chen provides technical training to naval cadets, including military theory on commanding naval operations, as well as training for naval officers.
maybe.
Those who participate in officer training will have the opportunity to become the naval commander of the Eighth Route Army and a big shot at the level of naval marshal.
"Not interested in."
Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Dehou and Zhang Dabiao all shook their heads.
"Fine!"
Everyone has their own ambitions, and Li Yunlong can't force them. Anyway, he has no interest in the navy:
"When Boss Chen sends someone to deliver books on naval military theory, arrange for transport planes to be sent to the headquarters, and when we complete the warship business, the headquarters will select cadres to participate in naval officer training at Boss Chen's overseas military base."
Li Yunlong previously studied military theory books such as "Air Dominance", "Introduction to the Art of War", and "Grand Strategy".
When Li Yunlong went to the headquarters last time, he brought a reprinted version to the heads of the headquarters.
One after another, Li Yunlong has handed over dozens of military theory books to the headquarters.
These military theory books are so advanced in terms of theory and thinking, not to mention the Whampoa Military Academy, and even some famous military academies of the Xigua National Army.
Then, Li Yunlong looked at Wang Dehou: "Chief of Staff, how long has it been since we sent a clear telegram?"
"Reporting to the head of the regiment." Wang Dehou said in a puzzled tone, "Didn't we just send it out a few days ago? We sent a clear telegram after killing Yoshimoto Seiichi and killing the North China Front Army aviation unit."
Li Yunlong nodded: "How many Japanese generals have we killed so far?"
"22!"
This time, Wang Dehou answered simply and neatly:
"In the last battle, we killed 4 Japanese lieutenant generals. In the last battle, we killed 1 lieutenant general and 1 major general. In total, we killed 22 Japanese generals."
Li Yunlong immediately cursed: "It's so fucking boring. We have killed 22 Japanese generals, but the Japanese still don't come to attack northwest Shanxi. Chief of Staff, send another clear telegram and type the names of 22 Japanese generals."
Go up and stimulate the devil."
Wang Dehou smiled slightly: "Yes!"
Subsequently, Wang Dehou drafted a telegram. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang found no problem after reading it, so they asked the telegraph operator to send it out immediately.
…
Tokyo.
Inside the Prime Minister's Office.
Tojo Hideji is holding a staff meeting.
Today, Hideji Tojo is the Minister of Land and Internal Affairs in one person. Later, he also served as the Minister of Education, Culture, Commerce and Industry, and the Minister of Military Supply, integrating various powers into one person.
Crazy clamoring to "complete the China Incident and establish the 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere'" is the national policy of the empire, which requires "under the imperial authority, the whole country should unite and move forward to complete the holy cause."
Since he came to power, the Japanese navy has gained advantages in the Pacific battlefield, and the Japanese army has made considerable gains in Southeast Asia.
In 1942, changes in the internal situation of Japan, a country that had been depleted by war, also put Tojo on the verge of political bankruptcy.
However, the Japanese army made a fortune in Southeast Asia, which eased the domestic financial situation and Tojo's position became stable again.
Although the U.S. imperialists did not return to the negotiating table as Private Tojo expected.
But in the Pacific battlefield, the Japanese navy had some advantages.
The Southern Army also achieved a great victory in Southeast Asia, and the future is promising.
At this time, Hideji Tojo and his staff were talking about the glorious future of the empire: conquering China and Southeast Asia, defeating American imperialism, and becoming a superpower in the world.
Then, a staff officer hurried into the Prime Minister's Office with a clear telegram in his hand.
Reported to Hideji Tojo that 22 generals of the Locust Army were killed by the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
"The new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong..."
After reading the telegram, Tojo Hideji's tone was unusually calm:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How long will it take for the North China Front Army, General Okamura Neiji, to eliminate the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and Li Yunlong?"
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I still don't know..."
The staff officer replied tremblingly:
"At present, reinforcements from five divisions have arrived in North China, and 20,000 tons of combat materials have arrived at Tianjin Port. It is still unknown when the North China Front will launch operations against the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army."
Although Hideji Tojo acted very calmly, Li Yunlong's telegram slapped the whole of Japan hard in the face. The current Prime Minister is only calm on the surface, but he is already filled with anger in his heart.
This time, Li Yunlong didn't say he wanted to chop off Neji Okamura's head, but directly called Bandojo Hideji.
The attitude is extremely arrogant.
"Order Okamura Neiji to eliminate the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and Li Yunlong within one month."
"Otherwise, his position as commander of the North China Front will be left to someone else."
Wearing round glasses, Tojo's eyes were narrowed and his tone was cold.
Last time, Li Yunlong of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army sent a clearly coded telegram to kill 16 Japanese generals. When Tian Locust learned about it, he was furious on the spot.
Not long after this, six more generals were added to the list of generals killed by a new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
What made Hideji Tojo even more angry was that among the six additional generals, five were all powerful lieutenant generals, and two were even commanders of group armies.
It's simply a shame and a shame.
The Japanese Empire was completely disgraced by the North China Front!
"Hi!"
As if he was being pardoned, the staff member suddenly lowered his head and turned to leave.
After the staff left, the Prime Minister's Office fell into silence.
Battles were being won everywhere, but the North China Front was losing battles. This year, Okamura Neiji suffered defeats that were inconsistent with his strength.
"idiot!"
Tojo Hideji suddenly exploded and threw the table in front of him violently. The wine bottle and wine glasses on the table were scattered all over the floor.
…
Peking.
Iron Lion Alley.
Japanese Army North China Front Headquarters.
Okamura Neiji summoned Tanabe Moritake, and Sue Seizo and the combat staff were doing war games.
"Your Excellency, Commander, is worried..."
Tanabe Moritake analyzed:
"Our North China Front Army has assembled part of its main force to sweep and attack the Eighth Route Army's Jizhong Military Region. Will the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi take this opportunity to attack Taiyuan?"
Okamura Neji frowned and nodded, with a hint of deep fatigue between his brows: "That's right!"
These days, Okamura has been thinking hard, but still can't think of any good way to break the situation.
When attacking the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi, the North China Front Army had little chance of winning.
However, the Eighth Route Army in the Central Hebei Military Region and the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi will most likely gather their main forces to attack Taiyuan.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I insist on suggesting that we either assemble the main force to fight the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi."
Moritake Tanabe said:
"Either abandon Shanxi, withdraw all Shanxi's troops to Hebei Province, and seek fighter planes for a decisive battle with the Eighth Route Army."
Okamura Neiji shook his head. If he ordered the Japanese army to abandon Shanxi, the base camp would not spare him.
The reason is very simple. The base camp allocated so much combat materials and troops to the North China Front Army just to let him eliminate Li Yunlong in northwest Shanxi.
But not only did he fail to attack Li Yunlong in northwestern Shanxi, but he also lost such a large territory.
When the time comes, the locust will be very angry and the consequences will be serious.
Moreover, once the Eighth Route Army captures Shanxi, the army will definitely grow as fast as bamboo shoots. If you give the Eighth Route Army one year, there will definitely be hundreds of thousands more troops.
Coupled with the mysterious assistance channels of the Eighth Route Army.
By then, even if the North China Front Army, Kwantung Army and 11th Army are tied together, they may not be the opponent of the Eighth Route Army.
At this moment, communications staff officer Haruo Kitani walked in quickly, holding the telegram from the base camp in his hand.
"Report to Commander."
Haruo Kitani bows his head and reports:
"Urgent message from the Prime Minister!"
Neji Okamura frowned slightly, took the telegram from Haruo Kitani's hand and read it.
Soon, Neji Okamura finished reading the telegram, and his eyes suddenly became confused.
In this telegram, Hideji Tojo said that he was asked to lead the North China Front Army to immediately attack northwest Shanxi and eliminate the Eighth Route New First Regiment and Li Yunlong within a month, otherwise he would be dismissed from his position in the North China Front Army.
Let a future general be the commander of the North China Front.
In the past, Hideji Tojo often sent telegrams urging him to attack northwestern Shanxi as soon as possible, but his tone was never as serious as this time.
He looked at Kiya Haruo with doubtful eyes, and Kiya Haruo hurriedly lowered his head and handed over a telegram, saying: "The Eighth Route Army Li Yunlong sent another clearly coded telegram with the list of killed Locust Army generals. A total of 22 Locust Army generals were killed in Li Yunlong's body."
In hand."
Okamura Neji took the telegram and read it, with a look of surprise on his face.
Both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were well aware of the number of Locust Army generals that Li Yunlong led his troops to kill. However, Li Yunlong invented the coded telegram to ridicule and provoke him first. No wonder the Prime Minister went crazy.
A sneer appeared on Okamura Neji's lips.
"Would you change the future to be the commander of the North China Front?"
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are thinking too much."
"If you want to remove me from Okamura's post, the general who will replace me will have to come to Peiping!"
After reading the telegram, Okamura Neiji thought to himself, Okamura is determined to get the Prime Minister to marry him this time.
