Even if they wanted to ask their superiors for credit, they didn't dare to mention it, mainly because it was too unreasonable. In the minds of Chinese soldiers, if they could achieve a 1:1 casualty ratio, it would be considered as taking credit for something that would make their superiors scold them.

120:0. Unless the heavenly soldiers and generals come down to earth and are all invulnerable to swords and guns, there is only a slight possibility of doing it. But this is also the reality, a reality that no one can erase.

This is the combat power bonus brought by advanced weapons. Of course, there must be enough ammunition to support it. Some riflemen in the two regiments didn't even fire a single shot before the battle was over.

With such a configuration of two regiments, let alone a squadron, even a garrison battalion of the Japanese could not shake the position jointly guarded by the Sichuan Army and the Shaanxi Army.

An army is sometimes like this: as long as it can keep winning battles and accumulate military merits, it will become an ace force as time goes by.

This is the case with the Sichuan Army Corps and the Shaanxi Army Corps, as well as the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. Now the soldiers' morale is very high, and they have a clear understanding of the true combat power of the Japanese devils, so they will not be afraid of the enemy like a tiger.

For example, the eagle in later generations is extremely arrogant towards other small animals, but always feels insecure when facing a rabbit, just because the rabbit says "My grandfather beat your grandfather", and it kills everything in seconds.

At this time, Li Yunlong took out a telegram and said with a smile:

"Xiao Kong just sent a telegram saying that they have successfully destroyed an airfield set up by the Japanese more than 100 kilometers away. There were 18 enemy planes at the airfield, all of which were destroyed. No one on our side was injured or killed."

Upon hearing this shocking news, the three regiment commanders present immediately fell into a dream. The Japanese airport was blown up so easily, and without any casualties on our side. How could such a bizarre thing happen?

You know, the Chinese Air Force has always been weak and was no match for the Japanese Army Aviation Corps. So they specially formulated a rule that no matter who was in the Army, as long as they could shoot down an enemy plane, it would be a great achievement and the soldier would be promoted by at least three levels.

But now the independent regiment has quietly destroyed eighteen planes, and the entire airport has been destroyed. The military merit gained in this way is much greater than simply destroying enemy planes.

Chu Yunfei said with a hint of meaning: "Brother Yunlong, you are so lucky. This man is sitting at home, and the overwhelming military merit falls on your head. I really envy you."

"Destroying an enemy airfield and destroying 18 enemy planes, I'm sure the pilots and ground crew at the airport also suffered heavy losses. This is a great achievement no matter what the circumstances."

"What I didn't expect was that the special forces could not only raid the enemy's headquarters, but also sneak behind enemy lines and cause such heavy losses to the enemy. I really admire them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Captain Long and Captain Qin complimented him in unison. To be honest, this level of combat was not something an ordinary infantry regiment like theirs could encounter, so today was an eye-opener.

Li Yunlong went on to say: "This battle can be regarded as a follow-up to the Youxian Campaign. Even if our four regiments jointly dispatched troops, the credit will be shared equally by everyone. It will be the responsibility of Regiment Commander Chu to ask for credit from the Second War Zone Headquarters."

Captain Long and Captain Qin were overjoyed after hearing this. This was a huge achievement, and even if it was divided equally among the four regiments, it would benefit the forces behind them greatly.

Nowadays, as long as you have military merits, you will be looked up to wherever you go. Even when you are collecting supplies, you can justifiably look down on those troops who are often defeated and good at running away.

Moreover, this kind of military achievement is specific and cannot be replicated. For example, when bragging, you can say: "I attacked the Japanese at xx airport and shot down 18 Japanese planes in one go. There were a total of 18 planes. You probably haven't even seen so many."

After all, the enemy's aircraft are the nightmare of the Chinese infantry, and there is the biggest disparity in weapons between the enemy and us. Although the Japanese infantry is also fierce, there is no absolute generation gap when it comes down to it.

Although the Hanyang rifle was much inferior to the Type 38 rifle, if the enemy was allowed to fight, the Japanese would still die if they were shot in the vital parts.

The Japanese naval warships could not land, so the threat to most of the Chinese military was not that great. Only the enemy planes were flying in the sky and could not be reached or hit.

If an army can shoot down enemy planes, it will be respected wherever it goes.

Even Chu Yunfei was very tempted after hearing this. There was no reason for him to refuse such a good thing. Moreover, this was real military achievement and no one could question it.

As long as Li Yunlong is willing to take it out and say that it is a plan jointly formulated by the four regiments, and each regiment has sent a part of its people to implement it together, everything will go smoothly.

Of course, Chu Yunfei also knew why Li Yunlong wanted to share this great achievement with everyone. In addition to repaying the favors for transporting supplies, the most important thing was to maximize the military merit. Otherwise, given the current situation of the Eighth Route Army, even if they had made such a great contribution, they would probably get nothing except a commendation telegram from the Second War Zone.

However, he still frowned and said, "Brother Yunlong, please tell us three about the situation on Captain Kong's side. Otherwise, when the higher-ups ask how they did it, it will be hard for us to explain that we don't know anything."

After hearing this, Captain Qin and Captain Long nodded repeatedly. To be honest, this kind of advanced tactics was unheard of for them, so it would be good to listen to it and broaden their horizons.

Li Yunlong had no intention of hiding this request. Some things can only have a deterrent effect if they are made public.

He then told Kong Hao about his action plan, which included forging documents and orders from the Japanese city defense headquarters, using military trucks to quickly transport troops, and finally secretly engaging the enemy and using three mortars and 300 shells to bombard the enemy's airport.

Although Li Yunlong spoke very calmly about the whole process, the three captains could hear a strong murderous intent in it. A lot of things must have happened here, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a scene of swords and sabers.

More than 30 people were heading more than 100 kilometers behind enemy lines, passing through a large number of checkpoints. If there was a problem in even one link, the combat plan would fail and the entire army would suffer a devastating blow.

No matter how good the special forces are at fighting, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed when facing a joint encirclement and suppression by enemies that are dozens of times their number, especially when facing the Japanese' massive artillery bombardment, which flesh and blood bodies cannot withstand at all.

To carry out such a difficult task, all participants are required to have great psychological qualities and must undergo long-term simulation training to achieve it.

Anyway, their three regiments definitely do not have talents in this area. To a certain extent, this is not a capability possessed by regular armies at all. No wonder they are called special operations forces. They are truly a force used for special operations.
