Chapter 931 Burning Tokyo!(1/2)
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, many national army troops overall surrendered to the Communist Party.
For example, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Jizhong Cavalry Regiment, under the leadership of Commander Ma, surrendered to the Eighth Route Army.
Another example is that during the War of Liberation, the 50th Army of the National Army, which came from a mixed background, became famous on the Korean battlefield after an uprising.
However, some pilots are currently mainly worried about their family members.
The military commanders and central commanders of the national army are not just for free.
As the most concentrated group of elite pilots in the national army, although many pilots in the national army are from wealthy families.
But not all pilots come from wealthy families.
Once they surrender to the Communist Party, these family members of pilots who have no power and no background will most likely disappear inexplicably.
"This issue has been considered by the organization a long time ago."
"Everyone can rest assured that the organization will make every effort to transfer the brothers' families to Shanxi."
"If the Nationalist government dares to take action against the brothers' families, the organization will never agree to it."
Zheng Shaoqiang's tone was decisive.
At present, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are still in a state of cooperation.
And times have changed.
The current strength of the Eighth Route Army is no longer comparable to that of the Red Army period and the early days of the Anti-Japanese War.
Even if the Kuomintang and the Communist Party went to full-scale war, the Eighth Route Army believed that it could defeat the National Army.
Although there are many Chinese soldiers and the territory is much larger than that of the Eighth Route Army, the Chinese army is not monolithic and its weapons and equipment are far behind those of the Eighth Route Army.
Tanks, aircraft, heavy artillery, and even infantry firepower, the Eighth Route Army is now defeating the Japanese army.
The next step is for the Eighth Route Army's air force to attack the Japanese airports in central China.
In order to prevent and weaken the Japanese bombing of Sichuan Province, Shancheng and other national army rear areas.
The Eighth Route Army headquarters can use this as a condition to negotiate with the top brass of the national army to obtain some benefits, such as transferring the pilots' families to Shanxi.
"Captain, if you say this, I will fight with you!"
Liu Zhihan, the leader of the 22nd Squadron, made a decision.
"Our Zhihang Brigade is both prosperous and destructive. Captain, I will also join the Eighth Route Army with you!"
Seeing that the three captains all voted for the Communist Party, deputy captain Liu Binlin also expressed his attitude.
His father was killed by a Japanese aerial bomb in 1937.
He has a sworn hatred against the Japanese.
During this bombing of Japan, Liu Binlin served as the co-pilot of a bomber. He witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of the aircraft carrier Shokaku being sunk and Tokyo being set on fire.
There is a sense of satisfaction in having a great revenge, but it is far from enough.
In the Battle of Jinling, more than 300,000 Chinese soldiers and civilians were massacred. Since the war began, more than 10 million Chinese soldiers and civilians have died at the hands of the Japanese. Can this be offset by a single bombing?
and.
I saw with my own eyes the densely packed tanks and heavy artillery of the Eighth Route Army around Taiyuan Airport.
As well as the people's sincere support for the Eighth Route Army, Liu Binlin saw that the Eighth Route Army was definitely not what the National Army promoted.
The Eighth Route Army is definitely a force that sincerely fights against the Japanese and truly cares about the common people.
so.
Liu Binlin also plans to change his banner.
There is really no future in following Chiang Kai-shek.
"good!"
Zheng Shaoqiang was very pleased that all his comrades fighting side by side were willing to join him halfway, but a few pilots looked hesitant.
He took out a notebook and said:
"The Eighth Route Army does not force people to do anything difficult, and it does not know how to capture strong men. It can come and go freely. Those who are willing to stay and join the Eighth Route Army can sign their names on it."
After finishing speaking, Zheng Shaoqiang took the lead in signing his name.
Then Liu Binlin, Gao Youxin, Liu Zhihan, Zhou Zikai, and then the squadron leaders and pilots of each squadron signed their names.
However, four of the pilots did not sign.
It was no surprise to Zheng Shaoqiang. These people were all die-hard supporters of Chairman Standing Committee.
After all, Principal Chang has millions of troops under his command, and he still has many die-hard supporters.
For example, Chu Yunfei graduated from the third phase of Huangpu, but Chu Yunfei's faith has been shaken recently.
Among them, some die-hard supporters of President Chang also chose to believe in communism in this second choice.
However, Zheng Shaoqiang knew that these pilots who chose to join the Eighth Route Army would undergo strict scrutiny.
"Captain, we..."
One of the pilots wanted to say something.
"There is no need to say anything, everyone has his or her own ambitions."
Zheng Shaoqiang put away his notebook and gave a military salute to the four pilots:
"I hope we won't meet on the battlefield in the future."
Later, Zheng Shaoqiang asked his comrades to rest and took away the four pilots who were unwilling to surrender.
These four pilots still need to stay here for a few days before arriving in Taiyuan and then back to the mountain city.
…
Northwest Shanxi.
Heyuan County.
"Chief, the bombing mission has been completed. These national army pilots must find a way to stay with us."
After receiving the pilots, Li Yunlong returned to Heyuan County with the leaders.
Several big guys from YA are also there.
One of the big bosses knew Zheng Shaoqiang's identity and met him in person shortly after Zheng Shaoqiang joined the party.
This big boss personally went to Taiyuan in person, at least half of it was for this matter.
According to Li Yunlong's character and temper, how could a cooked duck fly away when it reaches his mouth?
However, this requires people to stay willingly. As the saying goes, forceful melons are not sweet, and the Eighth Route Army will not force them to stay.
"What are you going to do?"
The chief crossed his arms, looked at Li Yunlong, and asked with a smile.
Li Yunlong has some genius in fighting. The commander wants to hear his thoughts and see if he can come up with some cool ideas to keep these pilots in Taiyuan.
"Chief, my idea is very simple."
Li Yunlong said:
"The chief's decision was correct. He invited Chinese military pilots to participate in this bombing operation."
"After this cooperative operation to bomb Japan, at least half of the Chinese pilots are willing to stay and join the Eighth Route Army and join the 'Yunlong BBQ' plan."
"As long as we send a eloquent lobbyist, I estimate that at least half of the pilots in the National Army will be willing to join the Eighth Route Army."
"I am willing to be a lobbyist." Zhao Gang stood up and said.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The chief of staff smiled and said: "I think Li Yunlong should be the lobbyist, and use your sharp tongue to persuade the national army pilots, and you should take action.
The entire 4th Air Force Group of the National Army is definitely willing to join the Eighth Route Army."
"OK!"
Li Yunlong thought for a moment and nodded:
"I'll go, I'll go, but chief, let's agree first that the pilots I brought will not be allowed to fight in the autumn wind at the headquarters."
The leader and chief of staff immediately laughed.
The few big guys from Yan'an on the side also smiled and said nothing.
Li Yunlong's expression was very serious.
He thought about it, and with his current influence, many young people at home and abroad joined the Eighth Route Army in pursuit of his reputation.
It was very difficult to recruit the entire 4th Aviation Group, but with half of it, Li Yunlong was still somewhat confident.
"OK!"
The chief nodded and said:
"No matter how many Chinese military pilots you can recruit, I will not defeat you."
"Then it's settled." Li Yunlong smiled slightly, full of confidence.
After tonight's celebration, he planned to talk to the 4th Aviation Group of the Chinese Air Force, try to use reason and emotions, and then draw a pie, and the matter would be settled.
