Chapter 230 Yugoslav combat takes off

When British and American air forces were driven away by Chen Yanlong's fierce air defense firepower and aviation forces, and defeated over Berlin, he took his own guard and flew towards Cologne One, a secret base in eastern Frankfurt on a UH-1 "Huey" multi-purpose helicopter.

The flight troops that covered his helicopter advance still dispatched a large number of FW190a-5/r6 fighter fleets to escort the Ta-152 fighter fleet.

When Chen Yanlong arrived at the airport, he saw the 12th Armored Division and the Skeleton Division who were also dispatched by him from the city of Berlin at the same time.

Even Hauser and defense expert Gothard Heinrich were dispatched to lead troops to fight.

After consulting with all the officers and soldiers, he discussed it with Hauser, Heinrich, and LeBron James, the commander of the Fire Eagle Air Flight Corps.

"Have all the troops I want to temporarily dispatch to Yugoslavia for practical training, have they been led here?"

Chen Yanlong walked towards the command center of the helicopter training base and said to Hauser beside him.

"They have all used the Fa-223 Dragon Helicopter and the C-130 Hercules transport aircraft to transport them all over."

Haussel nodded immediately and replied.

"Okay! How about those new C-130 Hercules transport aircraft? Is it easy to use?"

Chen Yanlong asked with satisfaction with a smile.

"It's very useful! If our troops can have such advanced transport aircraft in large quantities, then our logistics transportation, the front-line allocation of materials and soldiers' combat operations will be much easier and faster!"

When Hauser thought of the advanced C-130 Hercules transport aircraft that could transport military personnel and equipment to the battlefield or airdrop them, and could be used to retreat wounded when returning, Houser immediately said excitedly.

Chen Yanlong was still very satisfied with the medium-sized four-engine turboprop multi-purpose tactical transport aircraft developed and produced by the US military in the 1950s, although he liked the largest strategic transport aircraft in the US Air Force, the C-5 transport aircraft.

However, because the system has not been upgraded to be exchanged for C-5 transport aircraft, he can only exchange for a portion of the C-130 Hercules transport aircraft to give his Air Cavalry regiment the entire line of combat as a transport soldier.

Of course, Chen Yanlong also wanted to promote all such a good tactical transport aircraft to all the troops for use, but because there have been too many wars recently, Chen Yanlong had not had time to give the design drawings to Sperer and asked if he could produce and make such transport aircraft.

"Late! Because these transport aircraft are now in the research stage and cannot be mass-produced! Otherwise, I plan to popularize them all to all frontline troops for combat support!"

After a moment of silence, Chen Yanlong immediately expressed his future plans.

"If the head of state can really popularize the use of these transport aircraft, then our military transportation efficiency will be much higher!"

Hauser said even more happily when he heard this.

"By the way! Ss 12th Armored Division, and the Skeleton Division, I asked you to arrange half of the recruits for me to go in and dispatch them to Yugoslavia for actual combat together. Have you made any arrangements?"

Chen Yanlong suddenly changed the subject.

"Everything will be handled as directed by the head of state!"

Hausel replied respectfully.

Seeing Hauser who was speaking respectfully to Chen Yanlong at this moment, it was hard to believe that the other party would be a person who often quarreled with Hitler in history.

However, decisive, brave and humorous were also for the correct deployment of the German army, which made Hitler quarrel.

Therefore, Chen Yanlong is very fond of this general who has strength and vision in military tactical deployment and is also a good general for soldiers. He still likes and is optimistic about it.

Of course, what he unexpectedly expected was that Hauser now also admired Chen Yanlong's current way of doing things very much.

For example, Chen Yanlong has not only dispatched many new weapons and equipment to his command, and other troops, but also cared about the lives and safety of soldiers in each unit, the matter after death, and the rules of rewards and compensation. Of course, he has also carried out a major rectification of the command and combat agencies that were increasingly corrupt and incompetent and intrigued.

"I also want to know who our generals in Yugoslavia are now? How many troops are there, and how they are doing now?"

Chen Yanlong was silent for a moment and continued.

"The main force of the Yugoslav People's Army has just crushed the fourth encirclement of the Nazis. Although they lost the base in Bosnia and the "capital" of the guerrillas, the main force of the Yugoslav People's Army has also been transferred to Montenegro! Head of State!"

Hauser said what he found out about what he investigated.

"Continue yes, I'll listen!"

Chen Yanlong responded simply.

"Yes! Head of State! Because the occupation of Montenegro by the main force of the People's Army will pose a huge threat to the important transportation routes between our army and the Italian army, General Wright, the commander of the Southeast Front, issued an order to encircle and suppress the Yugoslav People's Army for the fifth time as early as May 6 this year."

"General Rust, the commander in charge of the fight against Bosnia and Montenegro, led the elite SS 1st Mountain Division, the SS 7th Infantry Division, the 118th Infantry Division, the 369th Infantry Division and the 104th Infantry Division of the German Regular Army who had just experienced actual combat."

"There are also Italian Venetian Divisions stationed in Kosovo and Albania, Ferrara Divisions and Taurinense Divisions, two pro-Nazi Bulgaria regiments and more than 15,000 Nazi-built Pavelic elements to cooperate in combat; and there are also special operations forces directly under the German local General Staff, Brandenburg Regiment, with a total force of 130,000."

"In May and June, they wiped out more than 6,000 guerrillas, and there were about 200 nurses and dozens of doctors among them, as well as Major Stult, the head of the British guerrillas in Tito."

Hauser finished speaking in one breath.

"How many guerrillas were they encircled at that time?"

Chen Yanlong asked with a frown.

"The main force of the People's Army is about 16,000 in the encirclement, and there are thousands of wounded soldiers!"

Hauser said calmly.

"It seems that such a record is not appropriate! The 130,000 troops, and the planes and tanks were dispatched to deal with more than 10,000 guerrillas, have only wiped out such a small number of enemy troops?"

Chen Yanlong said with great dissatisfaction.

"Maybe because the terrain there is relatively complex, 2 is not conducive to our mechanized operations!"

Hausel responded awkwardly.

Because he also felt that so many troops were unable to wipe out more than 10,000 units, which was a relatively shameful thing.

"Then after you and Heinrich have arrived there, don't take it lightly, just like General Wright, and General Roust!"

Chen Yanlong warned Haussel and Heinrich.

"Yes! Head of State!"

Hauser and Heinrich immediately said respectfully.

"In addition, how did Sun Tzu learn about the Art of War during this period? Can it be used for actual combat?"

Seeing this, Chen Yanlong continued.

"We are learning, and we will try our best to apply the strategies and tactics in Sun Tzu's Art of War to the battlefield!"

Faced with Chen Yanlong's abrupt question, Hauser and Heinrich looked at each other and immediately replied in unison.

"Then don't let me down! The People's Army and the guerrillas hired by the troop are not easy to deal with at all! Don't get caught in it, and let me continue to dispatch the army to rescue you!"

Chen Yanlong sighed deeply and said.

"Yes! Head of State! We will never lose, we will definitely complete the task you assigned us!"

When Haussel and Heinrich saw the emotional expression of not much confidence in them, they immediately responded confidently and competitively.

"Well! I will wait for your good news!"

Chen Yanlong nodded, looked up and stared at the clear sky that was already the second afternoon, and said thoughtfully.

Then he continued to chat with Hauser and the others for a while, familiarizing himself with military issues such as terrain combat after arriving in Yugoslavia.

After reaching the evening, the first batch of troops boarding the C-130 Hercules transport plane began to set off.

These transport aircraft can not only carry 92 infantry or 64 fully armed paratroopers.
