Chapter 150: Soldiers are also jealous

9.150 Soldiers are jealous

Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba did not forget to give his brigade commanders and wing commanders some practical benefits, and he obviously understood the principle that "just shouting slogans is not useful." www.biquge.info When the officers' "passion" was almost exhausted, Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba immediately threw out a real piece of good news.

"Gentlemen! Tonight, General Shunroku Hahata and Commander Ninji Okamura will mobilize a large number of fighters for our Kumamoto Division to carry out an airdrop on an unprecedented scale! This includes a lot of medicines! ”

Sure enough, as Lieutenant General Inaba Shiro expected, his words once again pushed the atmosphere in the division headquarters to a climax! The faces of the officers present were colored with excitement.

Airdrops, at the moment, are the only way the 6th Division can get supplies from the outside world right now. However, the airdrop operations carried out by the Japanese army before this did not go well, because they encountered an unprecedentedly difficult opponent!

Although the Chinese Air Force was at a disadvantage compared with the Japanese Army Aviation in the full-scale battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War, it did not mean that the air power in the hands of the Wuhan government could not completely block the extremely limited sky above the head of the 6th Division!

Relying on the good relationship with the Soviet Union's China-aiding air force and his personal friendship with Qian Dajun, Huang Haoran's annihilation battle against the 6th Division was strongly supported by the Soviet Union's China-aided air force and the Chinese Air Force. Under the joint strangulation of hundreds of Soviet pilots and Chinese pilots, it was basically difficult for Japanese planes to break through the encirclement and appear above the heads of the 6th Division, and even if a few fish occasionally slipped through the net, they still had to face the dense anti-aircraft fire network organized by the 25th Army.

In order to completely cut off the possibility of the 6th Division receiving air support, Huang Haoran not only ordered Shi Jincai to push all the anti-aircraft guns owned by the artillery unit to the line of fire closest to the 6th Division, but also borrowed a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns from the Soviet General Adviser through extraordinary channels. Although it is impossible to achieve a perfect air blockade with these weapons, it is more than enough to disrupt the Japanese army's airdrop operation!

It is precisely because of these arrangements of Huang Haoran that Shiro Inaba's troops will fall to their current situation in more than ten days!

However, since this airdrop operation was jointly planned by the two big shots, Okamura Ninji and General Shunroku Hata, the number of transport planes and escort fighters needed must be guaranteed! Perhaps, this time something useful could really fall from the sky!

"Don't worry! Ladies and gentlemen, this will be a night drop! The pilots of the empire will go all out! When you return to the army, please be prepared to receive supplies, the ground signal is ---Three fires!" ”

Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba was well aware of the officers' concerns, and he immediately pointed out the biggest difference between this airdrop operation and previous ones. Night flight, this is a new airdrop mode, the Chinese Air Force can't fight with the imperial pilots in the dark night sky, right? And those damn anti-aircraft firepower on the ground, if you want to exert your power, you must at least see the targets in the air clearly, right? Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba felt that the guy who made the plan for the night airdrop was simply a genius, and if his division could get enough medicine tonight, then the number of troops put into battle tomorrow would definitely increase! More importantly, getting this batch of airdrop supplies will inject a powerful spiritual force into the officers and soldiers of the 6th Division! Boosting the morale of your troops before a big war is something every commander dreams of!

"Hay! Please rest assured that we will go all out! Repay the Emperor! ”

From the loud answers of the officers, Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba seemed to see the hope of a successful breakthrough of the 6th Division!

Gao Lantian, commander of the 172nd Regiment, had recently encountered trouble, and several battalion commanders under his command would often come to the regiment headquarters to complain to him that the logistics department of the group army was not doing things properly, and that it was thin and thick with several armies belonging to the same group army. Of course, Regiment Commander Gao understood what the battalion commanders were talking about the distribution of "Su Machinery", but he could only keep his head and pretend to be confused.

That's right, the group army headquarters did something unfair when distributing Soviet aid materials, basically all the good things were allocated to Shen Yuanlong's 99th Army and the 139th Division of the 100th Army, while the 55th Army where the 172nd Regiment was located and several other newly formed divisions could only get the old equipment eliminated from the 99th Army and the 139th Division, but in the face of Deputy Commander Wang Huanzhi, the chief steward of the 25th Group Army, no one really dared to say anything.

You also don't want to think, what kind of unit is the 99th Army? And what kind of unit is the 139th Division? This is all Mr. Huang's family background! Hardcore descendants! Let's take a look at the great feats of these two troops! Basically, the final result of each battle will be all the Chinese troops participating in the battle, ranking in the top three! With these two points alone, what happened to the 99th Army and the 139th Division to eat more and occupy more?

And the equipment that was replaced from the 99th Army and the 139th Division is really good. In this one, the 55th Army and several newly formed divisions now also have a bit of an "elite troops" posture!

Enough to learn! For this reason, Commander Gao talked to his brothers! However, he managed to stabilize the mood of the officers and soldiers, but because of the siege of the 6th Division, it became useless.

It is too coincidental to say that in this operation, the defense area in charge of Cao Fulin's 55th Army happened to be with Shen Yuanlong's 99th Army Defense Company. The 172nd Regiment is the easternmost regiment of the 55th Army's defensive line, and next to it is the 708th Regiment of the 188th Division of the 99th Army. When they saw the officers and soldiers of the 708th Regiment holding all the "woolly goods" in their hands, the resentment in the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the 172nd Regiment suddenly exploded!

The 55th Army is indeed inferior to the 99th Division and the 139th Division, the two ace divisions, and they dare not be jealous of this! But what credit does the 188th Division have? You must know that the time when the 188th Division was established was about the same as the time when the 55th Army was put under the command of Huang Haoran! Isn't it just fate to be included in the establishment of the 99th Army? It suddenly became the main trump card of the group army! Now it has become the same "Soviet Mechanic Division" as the 99th Division and the 139th Division!

It's like you suddenly find that your little brother, who was originally on an equal footing with you, suddenly ran out of the way and completely left you behind! The sense of loss can be imagined!

The dissatisfaction in the hearts of several battalion commanders of the 172nd Regiment was mainly directed at such "nouveau riche" as the 188th Division. They felt that the group army was too contemptuous of the 55th Army, and the combat effectiveness of the old Northwest Army was notoriously strong, how could it be treated so "well"!?

Of course, "dissatisfaction" is "dissatisfaction", but the matter of the distribution of Soviet weapons did not affect the loyalty of the officers and men of the 55th Army to Huang Haoran at all, the 55th Army has only joined the 25th Group Army for more than half a year, and has already received two large-scale rearmament and redressing, if they were incorporated into other Central Army units, it would be impossible to have such treatment!

As Han Fuqu's old department, the 55th Army had already tasted what it meant to be displaced after Han Fuqu's death. Now that he can be taken in by a tolerant and generous commander like Huang Haoran, Cao Fulin and his subordinates are very grateful.

So what the 172nd Regiment has in its heart now is just a little "jealousy...... (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
