Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

[According to the suggestion of book friend Sky City, the current organization of the protagonist's troops is listed]

The 1st Independent Division is organized as follows:

There are three brigade-level units: an armored infantry brigade (8000 people), an aviation base (people), and a logistics brigade (people).

五个5000人重步兵团，分别是1、2、3、4、5团。

Three 3000-man light infantry regiments: a guard regiment, a reconnaissance regiment, and an engineering regiment.

炮兵团四个，炮1团（美械团）、炮2团（63式107火箭炮团）、炮3团（75毫米榴弹炮团）、重炮1团、2团（人员到位，缺乏武器装备）。

There are two cavalry regiments, Cavalry 1 and Cavalry 2 (2500 men each).

Division headquarters, directly affiliated chemical defense battalion, and a new recruit base (over 10,000 new recruits).

[Local garrison forces: four county security regiments, three internal security regiments (2000 men each), three air defense regiments, Air Defense Regiment 1, Air Defense Regiment 2, and Air Defense Regiment 3 (personnel in place, awaiting weapons and equipment) (each regiment has 1500 men).]

………………

"Everyone!"

Looking at everyone, Gao Yuan got straight to the point. After explaining the specifics, he said, "Our flight base has a heavy mission. Not only do we have to provide air support on the battlefield, but we also have to ensure the safety of our base's airspace."

"So I plan to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese airfields in North China, Rehe, Chahar, and Shanxi Province early tomorrow morning."

"I don't like to passively respond to attacks. If we want to ensure the safety of our airspace, we have to take the initiative."

"During the last anti-raid operation, our air base was the first to engage in combat and achieved a great victory. This time, I want to replicate that victory."

At this point, Gao Yuan looked at the flight unit commanders and asked, "Do you have confidence?"

"Shh!"

Hearing Gao Yuan's question, several regimental commanders stood up and shouted, "Brigade Commander, we promise to complete the mission!"

"it is good!"

Gao Yuan was very pleased with everyone's morale and immediately said with a smile, "Then, please ask the Chief of Staff to arrange the combat mission!"

The chief of staff didn't waste any time and stood up and walked to the battle map.

"Tomorrow morning at 5:00 AM, Fighter Squadrons 3 and 4, and Bomber Squadron 1, will take off first, targeting the two Japanese airfields in southern Shanxi."

"At 6:00, the 1st and 5th Fighter Squadrons, and the 2nd Bomber Squadron, target the Japanese Kwantung Army's airfields in the direction of Rehe and Chahar."

"6:30, Fighter Squadrons 2 and 6, Bomber Squadron 3, target the Japanese North China Front Army airfield in the direction of Peking."

"At 7:00, the 7th Fighter Squadron and the 4th Bomber Squadron will target the Japanese forces at Yangmingbao and Ohara Airfield in Shanxi Province."

"Fighter Squadron 8, Bomber Squadron 5, and the New Flight Group are on standby at the airport, ready to support frontline operations at any time."

"Ground crew, logistics, maintenance, and other departments, inspect and restock all aircraft and supplies tonight, and inspect and restock fuel and ammunition."

The current flight base has a total of 1st and 2nd fighter regiments, 1st bomber regiment, and a new flight squadron.

Each fighter regiment has 4 squadrons, equipped with La-7 fighters, P-47 fighters and I-16 fighters, and each squadron has 9 fighters.

The bomber regiment is composed of 5 squadrons, equipped with B-17 bombers and SB bombers, and each squadron has 7 bombers.

新飞大队，装备的是20架po-2教练机，11架伊-16战斗机、5架SB-2轰炸机。

"Yes!"

Hearing the chief of staff's words, the regimental commanders present, the new flight captain, as well as the ground crew commander, the baggage and maintenance personnel, all stood up and responded loudly.

As the combat plan was issued, the flight base became busy. Except for the crew on duty, other pilots entered the preparation and rest period.

All aircraft that landed at the flight base began emergency maintenance and refueling of fuel and ammunition.

A speechless night!

The next day, four o'clock!

The entire flight base was brightly lit, and the brigade commander Gao Yuan led the team personally.

Gao Yuan's vehicle has been changed from a La-7 fighter to a P-47 fighter, because southern Shanxi is more than 600 kilometers away from Yuan County, and the La-7 fighter's range of more than 900 kilometers is a bit insufficient.

The P-47 fighter's range of more than 1600 kilometers was perfect, and the bomber was also the B-17.

5 o'clock!

As Li Tang's voice came out from the radio, a formation of 25 fighters and bombers took off on three runways. After completing the formation in the air, they quickly flew south.

An hour later, Su Qiang, commander of a fighter regiment, took off with 25 fighters and bombers, targeting the Japanese Kwantung Army's airports in Rehe and Chahar.

Half an hour later, Su Shan, deputy commander of the 1st Regiment, led 25 fighters and bombers to take off, targeting the Japanese airport in the Peiping-Tianjin area.

At 7 o'clock, the commander of the Second Regiment, Zhang Youming, led 16 fighters and bombers to take off, targeting Dayuan Airport and Yangmingbao Airport.

After sending off the last batch of fighter jets, the sky was already bright, facing the rising sun.

Deputy Brigade Commander Li Tang and other officers from the flight base had anticipation on their faces.

Just half an hour ago, Gao Yuan led the 3rd and 4th fighter squadrons and the 1st bomber squadron and arrived at the first Japanese airport at a speed of 563 km per hour.

At this time, it was only about half past six.

It was just dawn and the Japanese were completely unaware. There were more than 30 planes parked at the airport.

Looking at the unprepared Japanese, Gao Yuan thought for a moment and said, "4th Squadron, continue forward, target Yuncheng Airport. 3rd Squadron will provide cover for the bombers, with two planes forming a formation."

When Gao Yuan rushed out with 25 planes and the shrill air defense alarm sounded, it was too late. They caught the Japanese off guard.

"idiot!!!"

"How could a Chinese plane appear here?"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!"

"..."

The entire airport was in chaos. Some of the Japanese soldiers pulled out their guns and fired into the air, some quickly ran towards the anti-aircraft machine gun and anti-aircraft artillery positions, and some Japanese pilots rushed towards the planes, trying to fly into the air to meet the enemy.

"hehe!"

Gao Yuan was flying his P-47 fighter plane with a sneer on his face.

The plane swooped down from the sky like an eagle, and the roar of the engine struck the hearts of the Japanese soldiers.

“Da da da da!!!”

Eight 12.7mm large-caliber machine guns sprayed out angry bullets, killing countless Japanese soldiers wherever they passed.

“Woo! Boom!!”

“Woo! Boom!!”

“Woo! Boom!!”

Gao Yuan, who was skilled and courageous, swooped down and flew over the airport at an altitude of about 100 meters. With the press of a button, three aerial bombs weighing more than 200 kilograms were dropped from the belly of the plane.

For a moment, the airport was filled with flames and explosions. The entire airport was in chaos, and countless Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded.

Those Japanese planes that tried to take off, and many of which had already started taxiing, were directly blown up. Raging flames erupted as they ran, and the huge explosion tore the Japanese pilots to pieces.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The nine P-47 fighters of the 3rd Squadron, relying on their excellent maneuverability, slaughtered the Japanese devils' manpower indiscriminately, destroyed all the anti-aircraft machine gun positions and anti-aircraft artillery positions, and cleared the obstacles and threats for the attack of the 1st Bomber Squadron.

After the three squadrons cooperated with each other and completed three waves of strafing, the ready-to-go bomber squadron 1 flew to the airport again.

Napalm bombs and aerial bombs were dropped one after another.

A raging fire engulfed the airport, and the ammunition and fuel depots were also detonated.

The intense flames and explosions not only stunned the Japanese and puppet troops in the distance, but also attracted the attention of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Second War Zone.

When Bomber Squadron 1 completed its first bombing run, the airfield had been completely destroyed.
