After saying goodbye to Zhao Gongming, Hong Mu returned to the chariot regiment station in a depressed mood. He threw the list on the table casually, and sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

"This is 37 shells, move to the Greyhound Chariot."

"Is there any butter?"

"The fuel truck is coming, don't smoke anymore! Who can clear the road for me!"

...

The camp was hustle and bustle, soldiers were busy adding gas and oil to the vehicles, reloading ammunition and the supplies needed in the vehicles. Although the supplies sent were not full, they were enough to make the troops run.

At this time, an officer with a lieutenant colonel walked outside the bamboo building and shouted impatiently at the window on the second floor: "Chief of Staff! Chief of Staff?"

"What are you doing? Are you crying out? "Hong Mu got up impatiently and glanced out through the window, obviously not knowing the seriousness of the matter.

"I just received the notice that Commander Fan and his team have already followed the brigade to the front line. When will we set off?" The lieutenant colonel was scratching his head and wanted to fly up directly.

"Old Fan ran away?"

Hong Mu was shocked and sat up quickly, cursing without mercy: "This grandson is so unrighteous. He actually left me alone here!"

It turned out that a few days ago, Liao Mingyu took into account the terrain and environment and equipped the Armored Brigade with a standard infantry regiment of 2,000 people, mixed a small number of armored vehicles and trucks to form a brand new high-motorized semi-mechanized unit, which can fight alone or with tanks.

The regiment and the chariot regiment cooperate to achieve coordinated attacks.

Because after passing the small and narrow plain area of ​​Mandalay Province, the more forests and hilly terrain go south, it is unrealistic to rely on tank clusters to charge into battle, and infantry should cooperate with the advancement.

The new infantry regiment was commanded by Fan Xiangwu, while the chariot regiment fell on Hong Mutou. At the same time, he also served as the chief of staff of the brigade department, which was a heavy task.

At present, the tank regiment and the infantry regiment have advanced southward. However, due to the nature of the chariot regiment, Hong Mu and the others have become the role of sending supplies and ammunition. The logistics and maintenance of other troops must be carried out by the chariot regiment and the transportation regiment.

This made Hong Mu, who was determined to be the pioneer, very angry.

"What do you say about the order of the brigade commander?" Hong Mu didn't care about anything else and walked down the stairs and questioned.

"The voyage asked us to collect the last batch of supplies before taking action to ensure the safety of the logistics and the transportation regiment..." The lieutenant colonel glanced at the other party, looking at him and wanted to speak but stopped.

"What are you doing when you have a fart, why are you staring at me?" Hong Mu cursed angrily.

"Hehe Chief of Staff, the amount of ammunition combat is enough. The difference is the supplementary supplies behind us. We can leave first. Let the transport regiment stay here. If we are late, we will not be able to catch up with the voyage and they will be able to catch up with the voyage.

"The Lieutenant Colonel confessed.

"But the defense of the transportation team..." Hong Mu hesitated while touching his chin.

The lieutenant colonel quickly proposed: "Oh... or leave a chariot company. Our land has occupied a lot of time, and I think nothing will happen."

After hearing what he said, Hong Mu was really moved. He didn't want to miss the good opportunity to make achievements. After hesitating for a moment, he finally made a decision: "I inform you, the troops are ready to go, let the Third Battalion stay here to protect the transportation regiment, the other two

The battalion will build roads according to the scheduled combat!"

"Yes! Ah..." Lieutenant Colonel hesitated a little: "Chief of Staff, is it a bit too much to leave a battalion?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and prepare!" Hong Mu scolded fiercely.

Although he knew that leaving a battalion was equivalent to cutting off his own arm, he was also worried that it would not be safe to stay here. You should know that half of the ammunition in the entire brigade was placed here, but the transport regiment did not have much combat power.

If there is a problem, the consequences will be serious.

With the order, the troops immediately began to act. Since the Armored Brigade was formed, there has not encountered any decent enemy, so the soldiers were very willing to fight, and they wanted to rush to the front line to crush the Japanese with artillery fire and tracks.

.

...

In November, other places have already entered severe winter, and compared with China, Southeast Asia is still scorching sun, but the temperature is much cooler. The weather of 25 or 6 degrees is very suitable for training and military operations, and driving a tank will not be as good as before.

It's so hot.

The tank regiment set out from Mitela early, while the infantry regiment was broken into pieces, and the company-based units advanced together around it, while cleaning up the sporadic Japanese strongholds and waiting for an opportunity to move.

26 long tube 75mm Sherman and dozens of wheeled armored vehicles raised rolling black smoke on the road, and a team of thousands of people drove towards the next target city, Ren'anqiang!

The Japanese army had already received information about the enemy's attack, and the troops from all walks of life were ready for battle, but even so, every Japanese had no confidence.

In just one month, they could not achieve the perverted supply like the 88th Army. All they could do was to increase troops to those fortification sites, but the number was extremely limited.

...

Early in the morning of the 3rd, Nankan Airport Flight Team Command...

There was still a hint of water in the air, and the thick layer of fog covered the entire airport, giving people a feeling of being in a fairyland.

It is said that this kind of weather is not suitable for aircraft takeoff, but there are still a large number of ground crew members running back and forth in the airport, checking the aircraft's condition to load ammunition, and looking at the scene of pre-war preparations.

Because according to the inspection of the weather station, the weather today is very good, and experienced people know the principle that nine out of ten fogs are clear. As long as you wait patiently for the fog to dissipate in the early morning, it will definitely be a sunny day.

Jamie walked near the hangar. There were more than a dozen lightning bolts printed on his chest, which were a glorious symbol that could only be achieved by shooting down enemy fighter jets. The black flying leather jacket on his body was handsome and cool.

, which attracted many ground staff to look at him with envious gazes.

But at this time Jamie didn't care about anything else. His eyes looked around, as if he was looking for something.

“Этонеплохо…”

“Hahaha…недаромчтоводажизни!”

At this time, a burst of Russian jokes came from the hangar next to him, which immediately attracted Jamie's attention. He hurriedly ran over and looked inside. Sure enough, the guy was inside.

"Hey, Andrew, why are you still here?"

"Oh, my friend, come and check this out!"

Andrew and another Russian pilot stood next to the fighter plane and didn't know what to do. He took a kettle and took a sip and wiped the water stains on his beard with indifferent care. His face was extremely excited.

Jamie walked in and saw that it was a newly arrived four-single-engine rocket, and several mechanics were working hard to install it on the plane.

This thing can be hung on both sides of the F4U Pirate Fighter, and can launch eight high-explosive rockets at a time, making it a magical tool for diving and licking the ground, and the nemesis of the tank fortress.

"What? God, because of this? The combat order has been released. We must quickly make a bombing plan!"

Jamie's tone was a little heavier, because the other party's incompetence made him very angry.

"Brother, it will take two hours to dissipate this fog. Before we take off, the front line is safe, hiccup..."

Andrew smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder, and even burped while speaking. The strong smell of alcohol instantly made Jamie frown.

"God, Andrew! Are you actually drinking??"

"Nono! This is not wine, this is the water of life. Only by drinking it can we be more energetic, right? Hala's whistle!" Andrew shouted with a kettle.

"Ula!!" The Russian pilot named Sasha next to him immediately responded excitedly.

"Ha ha…"

Jamie patted her forehead and was speechless to these two drunks. The big men from the north in the flight team all had the same virtue, that is, they were addicted to alcohol and had to come two glasses before flying, and some even brought the wine pot directly.

Get on the plane.

"all     right, gentlemen, I'm going to the war room now. The soldiers in the squadron are waiting for us. Will you come?" Jamie asked with a cold face and annoyed.

"Okok, you have the final say, haha... Let's go, don't let those kids wait for a long time."

Looking at Andrew with a drunken face, Jamie really wanted to go up and strangle him to death, but in the end she sighed helplessly.

It was fine when Liao Mingyu was there before, but now no one can care about them, especially Andrew completely let himself go, as if he was so untidy that he could not fly a plane every day.

But to be honest, these guys have a great alcohol tolerance, and even if they blow the plane directly, they have no problem. They are just fucking brave. They dare to do anything that others dare not do, like a group of crazy people

Don't be afraid.

The 88th Army Nankan Flying Team is now equipped with 16 F4U Pirate Fighters and 24 P40 Fighters, which are divided into two combat squadrons. Most of the pilots are old men of the original Flying Tigers, and they did not continue to stay after the Flying Tigers were incorporated.

In the US military, it came to Liao Mingyu's side instead.

Another part is the overseas Chinese flight technicians recruited by Fang Jingyao from Nanyang. In order to fight against Japan, they were not afraid of hardships and death, and resolutely came to Myanmar to fight.

The flight team was commanded by Jamie and Andrew assisted from the side. At the same time, Liao Mingyu also borrowed three B17 bombers and six C47 transport aircraft from Stilwell, allowing them to form an independent air combat system.

Originally, he was planning to get a few B29s, but Stilwell refused to agree with the importance of strategic bombers, so he could only settle for the second best to get three aerial fortresses to support the scene.
Chapter completed!
