Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

After hearing Zhang Ling's words, Ding Wei finally understood why Zhang Ling's independent division had so many good things.

Not to mention anything else, just find the devils to train your own talents.

This was something Ding Wei could not have expected, not to mention that the Japanese also helped train drivers.

"Captain Zhang." Ding Wei rubbed his hands cheerfully, "Are you still planning to train pilots?"

"How do you know?" Zhang Ling looked at Ding Wei with some surprise.

In the original plot, Ding Wei is the one with the best vision and the most ideas.

In the original plot, Ding Wei was the only one among the iron triangle of northwestern Shanxi who went to fight against the United States and aid Korea.

Neither Li Yunlong nor Kong Jie went.

So, regarding international military reforms and the military strength of our country.

Ding Wei really knows everything.

Therefore, Ding Wei was very clear about the equipment and troop construction reforms.

It is also because he himself has a very strong strategic vision.

Therefore, you are born with the ability to see more than others.

In this respect, even the protagonist Li Yunlong cannot compare to him.

However, Zhang Ling did not expect that Ding Wei had guessed that he was going to form an air force just by looking at his troop structure.

This surprised him a lot.

Ding Wei smiled and said, "I guessed too."

"I think since Commander Zhang is willing to make a deal with the Japanese, let them help train tank drivers."

"Then they will definitely find a way to capture the Japanese air force pilots."

"I watched the previous battles, and I found that each regiment of soldiers under Commander Zhang had anti-aircraft weapons."

"When these anti-aircraft weapons attacked, they were supposed to destroy the enemy aircraft at first."

"Later, I found that the soldiers of the independent division were attacking the planes."

"We didn't deliberately attack the vital parts of the Japanese aircraft, but tried to avoid them as much as possible."

"It forced the Japanese pilots to make an emergency landing or parachute out."

"So, I guess Commander Zhang is planning to capture some Japanese pilots and train our pilots, right?" Ding Wei said happily.

Ding Wei's words left Li Yunlong and Kong Jie stunned.

Damn, what the hell is this?

In the entire Eighth Route Army, Zhang Ling’s independent division is now the most valuable.

How precious is this child?

That means even news has come from Yan'an.

Basically, all the Eighth Route Army troops in northwestern Shanxi are centered around the independent division.

The headquarters boss must also give priority to ensuring the safety of the independent division.

Let me put it this way, when the critical moment really came, the Japanese attacked with all their might.

Then even if all the Eighth Route Army troops in northwestern Shanxi were killed in battle, it was necessary to ensure that the independent division could retreat safely to the rear.

There is no other way. This is the only troop that can fight in the field.

If this unit was destroyed, the Eighth Route Army would be unable to further drive out the Japanese troops in northwest Shanxi.

That's basically a fantasy.

Because of this, the independent division has now basically become a de facto cloud in northwestern Shanxi.

There is only one cloud hanging over the head of northwest Shanxi, and that is Zhang Ling's independent division.

All bosses have to step back a little.

In this battle, the performance of the independent division made Li Yunlong and others dare not say a word in front of Zhang Ling.

It would be good enough if I could join in the fun and make some money.

Zhang Ling was very loyal and even invited several of the group leaders to dinner.

Now he is the division commander and he is inviting you, the regiment commander, to dinner.

The brigade commander hasn't said anything yet, who are you?

But even such a precious treasure has already begun to plan for the establishment of an air force.

Zhang Ling, ah Zhang Ling, you are also a veteran from the 772nd Regiment.

Think about Blind Cheng from your regiment. Ask him about when he joined the Eighth Route Army.

Who taught you how to shoot?

But Li Yunlong only dared to curse quietly to himself in the headquarters of the New 1st Regiment.

I dare not let others hear it.

If someone gives me a small report.

The new regiment was equipped with heavy machine guns, mortars, rice, pigs, cattle, and sheep.

But I really can't have the nerve to ask for it from an independent teacher.

So, do you think Li Yunlong is not jealous?

That's so jealous.

But what's the point of being jealous?

The facts of whether you are jealous or not are now clear.

The independent division is going to form an air force unit.

You have to curry favor with him right away.

In the future, when the New 1st Regiment went out to fight, they still hoped that the other side's air force would come out to help them bomb a circle.

We can't always be bombed by the Japanese, right?

Our Lao Li’s troops also have to bomb the Japanese.

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong quickly lit a cigarette for Zhang Ling.

Then he raised his glass and said with an apologetic smile: "Captain Zhang, the independent division will form an air force."

"How many planes do you plan to fly initially?"

Seeing Li Yunlong's fawning look, Kong Jie said with disdain: "Fuck, Li Yunlong."

"You are really a dog. You are wagging your tail right now."

Li Yunlong was unhappy when he heard this: "Kong Erleng, who is wagging the tail?"

"Commander Zhang is a model soldier of the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi, and a hero who sent a telegram to the entire army in Yan'an."

"What's wrong with me, Old Li, being polite to Commander Zhang?"

"Shouldn't such a combat hero and combat division commander be like this?"

"Besides, if we talk about official positions, then Commander Zhang is also my, Li Yunlong's, superior."

"Kong Erlangzi, when your mother was wagging her tail in front of the boss, you didn't say anything?"

"Who was it that led the independent regiment and wagged his tail in front of the boss to get ten Type 99 rifles?"

Zhang Ling did not expect that Kong Jie and Li Yunlong would expose each other's shortcomings on the spot.

"Hey, hey, hey, two commanders, this is the front line, don't fight." Zhang Ling advised.

"No fight, no fight." Li Yunlong quickly smiled and said, "Commander Zhang."

"How many planes do you have?"

Zhang Ling thought about it and said, "The initial plan is to get 100 of them first."

"It's not the plane's fault, it's the pilot's fault."

"It's not easy to find pilots. First of all, not everyone can train pilots."

"You must have at least a high school education and be able to read a certain amount of math and English."

"And they must be in good health and have good qualities. I'm afraid the entire Eighth Route Army may not be able to pick out a few such candidates."

Kong Jie was also stunned when he heard Zhang Ling's words.

"Captain Zhang...are the requirements for pilots so high?"

Zhang Ling nodded: "This pilot is not just a person."

"You just need to be able to withstand the gravity of the plane's acceleration when you fly into the sky without feeling dizzy."

"This alone is enough to screen out most of the fighters."

"Plus, pilots have extremely high quality requirements, not only do they need to be well-educated."

"The three meals a day are better than what other soldiers eat."

"To put it bluntly, pilots are real young soldiers!"
