Chapter 403: The next phase of deployment of the independent regiment

Yu Ye can be said to be the busiest person in the entire Liaoyuan Arsenal at present. Since each project has just been launched, no matter how capable Guo Shoujue and others are, they lack sufficient experience, so they all need Yu Ye to come forward to check.

Of course, every time a project gets on track, Yu Ye will let it go quickly, otherwise he will be exhausted to death.

Most of the mechanical equipment was moved here from the old arsenal a few days ago, the electricity in the entire factory has been connected, and the barrel production workshop has just resumed production today.

The current production capacity is not much different from the previous one, so many weapons orders at the previous arms exhibition have not yet been fully delivered. The heads of several workshops were furious, and many of them were so anxious that bubbles appeared on their faces.

Yu Ye had no good solution for the time being and could only urge the comrades in charge of the industrial mother machines to speed up the progress. Every machine tool was taken to the corresponding workshop for installation almost as soon as it came off the production line.

Although he did not approve of this method because it would result in larger errors in the machine tools, Yu Ye had no choice but to turn a blind eye to the orders and told them to continue debugging the machine tools after the orders were completed.

It certainly won’t work according to the rules of later generations, but all of this can only be adjusted as we go along.

Fortunately, after half a month of adjustment, the entire Liaoyuan Arsenal has resumed normal production order.

.......

Regiment Headquarters.

The three people from the independent regiment, along with the deputy regiment commander Xing Zhiguo and the commanders of the six battalions were all there, analyzing the next stage of work plan on the huge battle map.

Yes, that’s 6 battalions.

The independent regiment already had 4 infantry battalions and 1 cavalry battalion. In addition, the headquarters had just approved the establishment of an artillery battalion, whose commander was Yang Xing, who had been seconded from the brigade headquarters.

Since joining the independent regiment, Yang Xing has never returned to the brigade headquarters except when he was injured.

When the meat got into the mouth of the regiment commander Li Yunlong, he had no chance to spit it out.

There are more than 5000 people and 6 battalions, especially the artillery battalion that has already become combat-ready, and the cavalry battalion that is about to become combat-ready with tanks as its main weapon. The firepower intensity is stronger than that of the previous brigade.

According to what Li Yunlong said when he was drunk two days ago: "Damn Cheng Xiazi, let him see now who the hell is the main force?

I will make him unable to defeat me with both hands and feet now!"

Even though his strength has reached such a point now, Li Yunlong is still full of resentment towards Cheng Xiazi. After all, his is not a unit with a regular number, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

Since there is no rigid battle plan, today's meeting was relatively relaxed. The main purpose was to express our views on the form of the war in the next stage based on the existing information and to put forward some of our own suggestions.

This is also a manifestation of our military democracy.

Yu Ye even brought a bunch of mechanical parts and started tinkering with them on the table. Yu Ye was actually not very proficient in things related to warfare. He attended the meeting mainly to respond to some equipment and logistical supply related work.

Zhao Gang began to introduce the situation: "According to the intelligence we have obtained so far, the commander of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Army, Ningci Gangcun, has mobilized the entire Japanese North China Expeditionary Army's First Army, the 21st Division, the 35th Division, and part of the 3rd Air Group to enter Shanxi.

It looks like the Japs are about to launch a major operation in Jindi."

"Third Flight Group?"

After hearing Zhao Gang's introduction of the situation, Yu Ye asked with a frown.

"Yes, a part of the Third Aviation Group. The exact number of personnel and aircraft has not yet been determined. They are currently based in Xinxiang, Henan Province.

The news sent back by our comrades on the covert front this time shows that the Japanese have already dispatched some aircraft to enter Shanxi and have stationed them at Taiyuan Airport in the past two days. "

Zhao Gang confirmed.

"The Third Flying Group." Yu Ye repeated the Japanese's number again.

"Is it the Third Aviation Group that caused the Chongqing bombing tragedy and killed countless innocent Chinese people?" Yu Ye confirmed with Zhao Gang again.

"Yes, it was the Third Air Group that bombed Chongqing a few months ago. Their entire air group had about 450 aircraft in total."

Zhao Gang gave a positive answer to Ye's question.

After hearing the news, Yu Ye frowned. The Japanese army divisions mentioned by Zhao Gang had more than 200,000 people. Yu Ye was not worried at all, because these 200,000 or 300,000 Japanese were facing the entire Chinese army in Shanxi. If the situation was divided evenly, his independent regiment would not have to bear much.

But if these 450 planes were to bomb his Ping'an Industrial Zone with all their might, he would be in big trouble.

In the previous Huangliangou battle, the independent regiment almost wiped out an entire Japanese flying squadron by designing a trap to capture Japanese aircraft, and shot down nearly 50 Japanese aircraft. In addition, the Yangmingbao Airport in the previous World War II was destroyed. After these two battles, the Japanese air force in Shanxi was almost completely destroyed.

Now the Japanese have redeployed 450 aircraft around Jin. Even though their current target may not be the Liaoyuan Arsenal, their presence has already threatened the safety of the Independent Regiment and the Liaoyuan Arsenal.

The best defense is to kill these devils. Only dead devils are good devils.

"Old Yu, Old Yu...what are you thinking about?"

Zhao Gang saw that Yu Ye's eyes were dazed and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, so Old Zhao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him to remind Yu Ye that this was a meeting.

"Oh, nothing. I just wondered how I could make sure that the Japanese air force and their planes would not survive until tomorrow."

Yu Ye said calmly.

hiss.

Everyone present was staring at Yu Ye. How could the minister, a scholar, say such cold words in such a calm tone?

However, they did not raise any objection to the minister about killing the Japanese Third Flying Group. In their subconscious, they always believed that the Independent Regiment was allowed to kill any Japanese that it wanted, even if it wanted to kill the Japanese Sky Locust.

The independent regiment lives its life as it should, and kills when necessary.

"Old Yu, I also want to do what you said. But I'm afraid it's a little difficult. This time their planes are hiding in Taiyuan City.

We don’t have a division right now, so we dare not attack Taiyuan.”

Li Yunlong lit a cigarette and felt melancholy.

It turns out that he was actually planning to attack Taiyuan.

"Indeed, it's a bit difficult to fight this time. There are too many Japanese planes, and Ping'an County is on a plain, so there is no way to ambush them.

We currently have only a hundred-odd anti-aircraft guns, and the firepower density is still somewhat insufficient.

If the Japanese planes attacked and destroyed any of our equipment, we would be heartbroken. "

When he thought of this, Yu Ye himself felt a little worried.
