"Mountain artillery with a range of 10.5 km..."

While walking back to his small headquarters alone, Yamamoto rubbed his forehead all the way.

There is no need to think about it, the artillery that Li Yunlong shelled the airport must have been provided by that Chen Fan.

You can see it in terms of power and range.

Yamamoto, who is a part-time intelligence officer, knows very well that most of the mountain artillery of the Republic of China is old and old, and its main force is the Krupp mountain artillery of the last century, as well as the imitation of the Empire's 41 mountain artillery, and the maximum firing range is only about four to six kilometers.

Of course, in the years before the war, the government ordered a batch of Bofors mountain guns from abroad, but the maximum range was only nine kilometers.

The artillery that shelled the airfield this time had a maximum firing range of 10.5 kilometers, far surpassing the Empire's Type 94 mountain artillery, and its explosive power was greater than that of the ordinary 75 mountain artillery, and even at a range of 10 kilometers, it still had considerable accuracy.

This kind of artillery that the empire does not have, and only that Chen Fan can provide it.

"Trouble······"

Returning to his small headquarters, he took out the map of Taiyuan and put it on the table, looking at the terrain around the airport, Yamamoto had a headache.

Although Taiyuan is the capital of Shanxi Province, it belongs to an important town, but the plain terrain is a little bit in the center of the city, and the others are mountainous areas, especially near the airport, within a radius of more than ten kilometers, in addition to the direction close to Taiyuan City, the remaining three sides are covered with a large number of small peaks, these peaks are not high, only a few hundred meters or so, the slope terrain is complex, and the mountain road is winding and rugged.

In the face of such a terrain, how to guard against mountain artillery with a firing range of 1.5 kilometers and extremely mobile mountain artillery in mountainous areas?

He really couldn't think of a good way for a while.

In particular, there is a serious shortage of troops, and the enemy commander is still Li Yunlong, who has a slight understanding of special operations.

As the commander of the special forces, from his point of view, this kind of mountain artillery, which is comparable in mobility to infantry, has countless ways to reach the vicinity of Taiyuan Airport, and it is impossible to achieve absolute defense.

Set up barbed wire fences or mine to block mountain roads...

Although the terrain of these low hills is complicated, the slopes are gentle, and they are only a little slower to climb up without climbing through the mountain roads, and the other side approaches at night, setting up positions nine or ten kilometers away and firing a few shots, and the blockade is meaningless.

Set up a guard post on every mountain peak and send people to patrol at night·····

A radius of 10 kilometers requires at least two full-fledged brigades, and only by patrolling and guarding in detachments can we barely weave a defensive and alert net, and it may not be able to defend against it.

It only takes a few minutes for the mountain artillery to be assembled and fired, and the positional requirements are also low, a small flat bottom is enough, the retreat is faster, and the patrol may not be able to defend against it.

Moreover, those scattered patrolling troops are simply perfect targets, and Li Yunlong will inevitably attack these patrol soldiers.

"Trouble..."

Rubbing his forehead again, Yamamoto decided to formulate the plan first, and let General Yoshimoto decide for himself.

He's just a big boss.

Yamamoto was proficient in special operations, and he had quite a lot of research and achievements in infiltration and counter-infiltration, and the plan was quickly formed, and then he threw it aside and began to think about another order from Yoshimoto.

Investigate the origin of the Great Mule·····

The thought of this question twitched the corners of Yamamoto's mouth.

Could he not know where this big mule came from?

Of course he knew, and he had known it for a long time.

This kind of mountain mobility is high, the transport capacity of the animal power, he is also red-eyed, this thing is simply a super weapon of mountain warfare, his special forces with a few can carry 92 infantry guns, mortars, and even mountain artillery, and mobility does not drop a bit, combat effectiveness doubled.

Even in the plains, it has an extremely high effect.

Modern warfare is all about logistics and mobility.

According to his analysis of Li Yunlong's series of battle examples, in a territory like the Republic of China, which lacks roads, this kind of mule and horse can increase the supply and mobility of an army by more than three times, and if it can be obtained and popularized on a large scale, the imperial army may be able to get out of the current predicament.

So far, almost all of the Empire's defeats have been halted due to supply problems.

But that Chen Fan ·····

"Is there such a person..."

Yamamoto couldn't help but rub his forehead again.

·····

Just when Yamamoto had a headache.

Zhao Jiayu.

Li Yunlong also received a telegram from the 1st Artillery Company.

"The report regiment commander, political commissar, and artillery company telegraphed that the task of the third shelling of Taiyuan Airport has been successfully completed, and a total of 1,000 shells have been fired at Taiyuan Airport, most of which hit the airport and destroyed many aircraft and warehouses."

"There were no losses in a single battery of five guns."

The telegraph operator took a telegram and reported to Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong:

"The loss of Devil Taiyuan Airport is incalculable, but it is expected that more than half of the loss will be unusable within two months."

"Okay."

Li Yunlong nodded to the telegraph operator with satisfaction.

The telegraph operator handed the telegram in his hand to Li Yunlong, then saluted and turned to leave.

"Hahaha..."

Seeing that there was no one else in the regiment headquarters, Grand Master Li finally couldn't help laughing, and he laughed very happily.

First, he was happy for the successful shelling of Taiyuan Airport again, and second...

"Lao Zhao, this telegram is convenient."

Holding the telegram in his hand, Li Yunlong's mouth was about to crook when he smiled.

Without waiting for Zhao Gang to roll his eyes, he continued to say in a soothing tone:

"Next month, I will give Lao Ding and Lao Kong a whole set, and our three regiments will have daily exchanges and exchanges."

There is a limit to the station, which can only provide five per month.

"Well, by the way, I'll have to find a superior to assign a few telegraph operators to these two guys."

Li Yunlong rubbed his hands a little impatiently.

This shelling of the airport has killed a lot of devil planes and cars, and a lot of supplies can be harvested, and it is completely possible to change a few radio stations next month, and the five independent regiments are enough at present, and they can give one each to the new first regiment and the new second regiment, and the others to the above.

There is a great lack of radio stations on it.

When I think of the scene of telegraph contact between the three regiments...

He's looking forward to next month.

"It's really time to give the new 1st and 2nd regiments the radio, the cavalry communication is too slow, too inconvenient, and prone to accidents." Although he disdained Li Yunlong's ostentatious strength and his appearance of showing off in front of Ding Wei and Kong Jie, Zhao Gang also agreed to this proposal.

"Captain..."

The monk ran in and interrupted Li Yunlong's longing:

"I'm ready to go."

According to the information provided by Ding Wei and Kong Jie, three days later, a group of devil transport teams and a large group of devils will set off from Pan County and go to Ping'an County, first, to transport supplies to Ping'an County, and to strengthen Ping'an County's defense.

"Okay."

Li Yunlong nodded, and told the monk:

"This time the special team is under your command, if you have any questions, ask Zhang Dabiao, in terms of command, you still lack a lot."

"Yes."

The monk's tone was excited.

After the monk left, Li Yunlong continued to giggle with the telegram, and Zhao Gang saw this, silently took a few steps away, and continued to think about the cultural knowledge training of his independent regiment.

There is no need to worry about the sufficiency of materials, there is no need to worry, there are enough officers and cadres at the grassroots level, and they are all cadres who have been trained by the headquarters and have excellent quality, and Zhao Gang does not need to worry about the training of the independent regiment.

Over the past three years, the Independent Regiment has proven the importance of knowledge.

Therefore, Zhao Gang plans to teach the fighters some advanced knowledge, that is, high-level knowledge.

There is no problem with the teaching materials, he got rid of Boss Chen and got a lot of books, all kinds of books, but there is a serious shortage of manpower, and he is the only one in the group who can be used as a high school level knowledge...

At this moment, suddenly, the telegraph operator ran in again:

"Regiment commander, commissar, brigade telegraph."

Suddenly, Li Yunlong's face stiffened, the corners of his mouth fell, and the last telegram in his hand fell directly to the ground.

'Hahaha...

Seeing this scene, Zhao Gang suddenly couldn't help but laugh out loud with a pig cry.
