Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

"Yes! Master!"

Niangziguan was taken down in this way.

But... this is Zhang Yunqing's first step in foreign war... The Japanese in Ji Province must also be fought.

Rather, it must be beaten hard.

No one can change Zhang Yunqing's thoughts on the next attack on Hebei Province.

Because... once Hebei Province is captured, the entire North China region will be unimpeded... At that time, it will be the time for the independent column to show its power.

No one... can ever let go of this good place, Ji Province.

Now...the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area is also developing very well.

After the independent column takes over Jin Province, if it takes over Hebei Province... that would be a perfect thing.

The purpose of the vice president's visit this time... In addition to wanting to see the strength of the independent column... he also had another reason... that was to discuss with Zhang Yunqing the attack on the Japanese troops in Hebei Province.

It's just...due to the intersection of other things, the vice president hasn't said anything yet.

Since the independent column captured Taiyuan City, it has captured several county towns one after another.

Now there are as many as 10 county towns occupied by independent columns alone.

Among them, Taiyuan City, Datong County, and Yangquan County are the main bases.... Railways have also been built in the surrounding areas.

As long as several places are attacked...the independent column can rush there as soon as possible...

Greatly improved operational efficiency....

Not only railways... but also road construction... Jin Province is already mountainous... Now once roads are built.

Tiger tanks and other heavy tanks will become more flexible....

It is also more suitable for carrying heavier cannons.

Taiyuan City Headquarters.

Zhang Yunqing naturally saw the system's rewards.

He was already very concerned about the Fourth Division... After all, this battle has been fought for so many days... There should be a result...

Looking at the reward, Zhang Yunqing smiled.

"I didn't expect...these four divisions would kill so many Japanese..."

"More than 10,000...it's quite a lot...after all, Niangzi Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack...even if there is an airplane, it will take some time..."

"The Japs guarding Niangzi Pass are not weak in combat effectiveness... It seems that the Fourth Division's troops are doing a pretty good job..."

Zhang Yunqing was also relatively satisfied with the Fourth Division's battle. Although it took a little longer, it was ultimately effective.

The dignity of an independent column has been demonstrated... the strength of an independent column has been demonstrated.

"The rewards are quite satisfactory...no aircraft carriers, just more cruisers and destroyers..."

"But...it's better than nothing."

Looking at the reward for this ship... Zhang Yunqing is also quite satisfied.

The independent column naval forces will be brought out after the military parade... including all the imperial soldiers and civilians, as well as various resources...

Now, the military parade is not over yet, so Zhang Yunqing naturally focuses on the military parade.

The New Orleans-class cruiser is also an extremely high-performance cruiser made in the United States.... It has very good reviews.

The displacement is tons... The main gun is a triple-mounted 203mm caliber main gun. Such a configuration is rare among cruisers.

This shows the ferocity of the New Orleans-class cruiser.

The secondary battery is eight 8mm cannons....

The anti-aircraft weapons are 6 quadruple 40mm caliber Bofors anti-aircraft guns... and 26 20mm caliber anti-aircraft guns, which greatly improves the air defense capabilities of the New Orleans-class cruiser...

The speed is 32.7 knots, the endurance is 1 nautical miles, and there are 4 carrier-based aircraft...

Even a few were sunk during the latter stages of World War II.

But it still cannot change its powerful characteristics.

Look at this destroyer... its firepower is also very fierce...

4 twin-mounted 138.6mm naval guns....

2 single-barreled 37mm anti-aircraft guns.....

4 Hotchkiss 13.2mm anti-aircraft machine guns....

2 twin-mounted and 2 triple-mounted 550mm torpedo tubes....

2 depth charge launchers, 16 rounds of ammunition ready...

1 mine is on sliding rail, 40 mines are prepared...

Such a configuration... No wonder the French destroyer is more famous, there is a reason for that.

So many cannons...it's more than enough to be a destroyer...

"It's not bad...at least it's not a small ship...an aircraft carrier must not only have an aircraft carrier...but also other ships...destroyers and cruisers are an important part..."

Zhang Yunqing is also quite aware of the importance of these two types of ships to an aircraft carrier formation.

Now the naval force of the independent column has reached a certain scale...but it has not been brought out.

Once it is taken out...it will shock the world!

By then...let alone the little devils...even the Americans will be shocked.

Zhang Yunqing also knows that it is not a wise choice to put the naval force into battle now.

The current independent column has only become a relatively large force... but compared with the little devil's one million army and one million navy... there is still a big gap.

Especially the little devil's naval force...that is the foundation of their country...

It also played a big role in the Ocean War... although the Ocean War failed.

But...it also let the whole world see the strength of the little devil's naval force...

Judging from the current strength of the independent column navy, it is completely incomparable to the little devil.

We can only send submarines to carry out covert attacks... If something happens, we can do it.

If all the aircraft carriers are really used to fight the little devils... it is not impossible.

It's just that the timing is wrong, and we can't let the little devils transfer all their targets to their own naval forces.

At least we have to wait until next year after the Japanese declare war with the Americans.

In this way... maybe, the Americans will give themselves some resources...

Zhang Yunqing's plan is clear enough.

Attack from land first... then attack from sea...

We haven't finished fighting the little devils on land yet.

How can I still be in the mood to fight against the Japanese troops at sea...

But...the Independent Column is now considered a powerful naval unit.

A naval force that is developing its prototype... actually has more than a dozen aircraft carriers...

There were also several battleships.

Hundreds of submarines...

Think about it...they are all terrible secret opponents...
