Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

The independent regiment's air defense forces are mainly divided into two parts.

The two names can be used to distinguish them well.

They are an independent anti-aircraft artillery battalion and an independent surface-to-air missile battalion.

Among them, the 37mm twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun will not be included in the equipment sequence of the independent regiment.

Li Yunlong directly handed these dozens of 37mm twin-barreled anti-aircraft guns to the New st and New nd Regiments.

The air defense capabilities of these anti-aircraft guns are still very good and can effectively improve their air pressure.

The independent anti-aircraft artillery battalion is mainly equipped with the Type 59-100mm anti-aircraft gun, which is mainly responsible for the air defense of key areas.

This is also the last line of defense of the independent regiment's air defense network.

The entire battalion is composed of three anti-aircraft artillery companies, a radar company, a battalion headquarters company and some affiliated units.

Each company is equipped with 9 Type 59 100mm anti-aircraft guns, totaling 27 guns.

With these 27 anti-aircraft guns placed around Zuoyun County, the Japanese planes will be beaten as soon as they get close.

The surface-to-air missile company currently only has the Hongqi-61A air defense missile.

But in Li Jingrong's plan, this surface-to-air missile battalion will soon be fully equipped with ZSU-23-4 Shilka self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and SA-6 surface-to-air missiles.

One company of self-propelled anti-aircraft guns plus two SA-1 surface-to-air missile companies is enough to support a field air defense network.

What's more, the Feinu-6 individual air defense missile has also been put into service in large quantities.

Li Jingrong has always attached great importance to prevention and control.

These equipments form a comprehensive air defense network.

As long as the Japanese planes approach within 30 kilometers of the independent regiment, it will be the beginning of their nightmare.

In addition, the original firepower reinforcement battalion was directly split into various battalion and company units.

Since each battalion is already equipped with a fire reinforcement company, the existence of a fire reinforcement battalion is no longer necessary.

What's more, delegating firepower to the company level can enhance the firepower of the troops to a greater extent.

In addition, there are also auxiliary units such as the engineering battalion, logistics support battalion, mechanized reconnaissance battalion, special assault battalion, and field hospital.

Overall, the strength of the entire independent regiment has expanded to about 15,000 people.

An independent regiment has a strength of up to 15,000 soldiers. If this were to be made known to others, the Japanese would probably tremble.

After the independent regiment completes its comprehensive reorganization, its combat effectiveness will be increased by several levels.

He had waited for this day for a long time, and finally the independent regiment completed mechanization.

Of course, it can only be considered semi-mechanized now, but mechanization is only a matter of time.

In fact, in his opinion, this mechanized force still lacks a relatively important link, that is, helicopters.

Only if it is combined with the Army Aviation Corps can it be considered a complete mechanized organization.

But don’t think about it now.

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

Li Jingrong stood up and walked to the map on the wall.

He searched carefully and set his sights on Santun Township in the northwest of Zuoyun County.

"I went to Santun Township before I came here."

"Santun Township?"

Li Yunlong glanced at him suspiciously and continued, "I know this place. There used to be a Japanese military base here. The civilians were evacuated, and this place was destroyed by the war. We are preparing to rebuild it."

"Why? Why are you interested in this place?"

Li Jingrong smiled and said, "Of course it does. Santun Township is backed by the Luliang Mountains and next to the Ming Dynasty Great Wall. Although the terrain is steep, the entire area is relatively flat and the soil is highly hardened."

"I want to build a military airport here."

"A military airport?"

After hearing these four words, Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Brother, are you ready to support our plane?"

After saying that, he looked at Li Jingrong with bright eyes, wanting to get a positive answer from him.

The Air Force was too far away for the Eighth Route Army, so far away that they could not even imagine it.

Even now they are living a good life with the help of Li Jingrong.

At least they no longer lack guns and bullets, nor do they lack food and clothing, but the Air Force is still very far away from them.

Li Jingrong suddenly proposed to build a military airport, which inevitably made Li Yunlong excited.

After all, a military airport has only one function, which is to accommodate the takeoff, landing and stay of fighter jets.

Ding Wei, Kong Jie, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao and others on the side also looked at Li Jingrong.

Li Jingrong nodded and said, "That's right. As soon as this military airport is built, the planes will be able to arrive directly. I will also provide you with a group of flight instructors."

"I have brought all the materials needed for the construction of the military airport. Now all you need to do is build it."

"I also suggest that you report this to the higher authorities and screen for potential pilots throughout the military."

"After these young men are sent to the independent regiment, I will conduct a new round of screening to retain those who are truly suitable for flying and form the first air force of the Eighth Route Army."

"I've already written down some hard requirements for the initial screening. Just pass them on when the time comes."

The independent regiment couldn't even gather all the tank crew members, let alone flying talents.

Therefore, they could only be screened from among the Eighth Route Army.

"No problem, buddy. I'll report your proposal right away. The boss will definitely be very happy."

Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

"Boss, your call is from Li Yunlong."

The boss's attention was drawn away from the sandbox. He looked up and said, "Li Yunlong actually dared to call me? This is truly bizarre. Let me hear what conditions this meritorious official has to offer me."

Generally, Li Yunlong rarely dares to call the headquarters.

Even if there are any, they still require people.

"Li Yunlong, what are you up to now?"

Li Yunlong on the other end of the phone was not at all panicked after hearing the boss's questioning, and his tone was full of arrogance.

"Boss, although I'm here to ask you for someone, you must give him to me."

The boss snorted lightly and said with a smile on his face, "I'd like to see what reasons I have to give it to you. If you have anything to say, come on, don't keep me in suspense."

Li Yunlong didn't dare to show off in front of the boss. He immediately said with a serious face, "Yes, Consultant Li plans to support us with a batch of aircraft and flight instructors."

"Now we are planning to build a military airport."

"But we don't have any good pilots."

"Advisor Li asked us to conduct a screening of the entire army and send a batch over. What do you think?"

"A few people will be enough if there are about a hundred of them."

"In addition to young pilots, we also need a group of people who are familiar with or have some understanding of mechanical structures to serve as ground crew."

The boss was a little stunned when he heard the person talking on the other end of the phone.

Obviously, this news has had a great impact on the boss.

"Li Yunlong, your news comes at the perfect time. Yan'an has a group of pilots ready to be sent north for training."

"Because we are ready to form our own air force."

"Since Comrade Li Jingrong has offered to support us, I will send these pilots directly to your side."

"I also agree with the proposal of selecting the entire army. We must seize this great opportunity to build up our air force."

"Just wait for the news. We will send the person to you as quickly as possible."

When he said this, the boss became a little excited.

The Deputy Chief of General Staff had been listening with great curiosity.

"Air Force? Boss, what's going on with Li Yunlong?"

The boss was in a very good mood when he heard the question from the deputy chief of general staff.

"Haha, Comrade Li Jingrong is going to support us with a batch of aircraft and a group of flight instructors to help our army form an air force. Do you think this news is worth celebrating?"

After hearing the news, the Deputy Chief of General Staff showed excitement and joy on his face, even though he had a calm personality.

The Eighth Route Army needed an air force of its own, it really needed it.

Not to mention him, even Yan An would be very happy to hear the news.

"It's great, it's really great."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff paced back and forth happily, then clapped his hands and said, "Let me be responsible for sending the person over when the time comes. I want to see it myself."

The boss nodded and said, "No, if you want to go, let's go together. It's nothing for you to go alone. You want to go and see it yourself. Don't I want to?"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff laughed and said, "Well, the Japs have been beaten down pretty well lately anyway, so they don't dare to cause any trouble. It's okay for us to go and take a look together."

They are only about one or two hundred kilometers away from Zuoyun County, and it takes about three days to go back and forth.

As a result of the battle in Zuoyun County, the Eighth Route Army's territory expanded a lot, or it could be said that the Japanese had reduced their forces.

The entire route to Zuoyun County is under their control, so there are no security issues.

"What? The CEO and the Deputy Chief of Staff are coming together?"

After hearing what Li Yunlong said, Li Jingrong was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this incident actually alarmed these two big guys.

Since this is the case, I have to prepare well this time.

"In that case, I will go to the airport to oversee the construction personally and speed up the construction so that it can be put into initial use within a month."

Li Yunlong was also very much looking forward to this day. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll borrow Lao Ding and Lao Kong's engineering corps as well, and they'll be in place tomorrow."

Li Jingrong's eyes lit up. There were three engineering battalions in total: the Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment.

There are about two thousand people, plus the construction machinery and vehicles they brought with them.

There is absolutely no problem in building a military airport within a month.

Li Jingrong came to this desolate area that day.

This military airport was built according to the standards of a first-class military airport.

There are two runways in total, one for take-off and one for landing.

The length of each runway is about two kilometers. Mr. Liu definitely can forget about it. The military will definitely not sell strategic weapons such as bombers.

But there is no problem in building our own piston propeller bomber.

The bomber currently being designed by Sichuan Aircraft Corporation is specially customized by Li Jingrong for the Eighth Route Army.

Fighter jets are just a side benefit for making money.

In addition to the runway, there are also taxiways, insurance roads and aprons.

There are also hangars, ammunition depots, repair shops, command centers, navigation stations, dormitories, oil storage areas, etc.

Compared with piston propeller aircraft, jet aircraft have higher requirements for pilots.

After all, piston planes can at least find a slightly flat surface to take off and land.

But not for heavier, faster jets.

The J-3.9 subsonic jet fighter has an empty weight of 6 tons, a maximum take-off weight of 1145 tons, and a maximum flight speed of kilometers per hour.

It is heavier than the P-51 Mustang fighter, so there will be no problem in building a high-standard military airport.

Anyway, he can provide the materials needed to build a military airport.

There will be no problem accommodating dozens or even hundreds of aircraft in the future.

Next, the Santun Township military airport entered emergency construction status.

With the help of blueprints and construction vehicles, the construction is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Although there are some minor problems, they can all be solved well for Li Jingrong, who has a talent pool.
