Chapter 1325 Never back down 2
"I'm going, are you giving me a vaccination?" Peng Yi turned pale when he saw the telegram from Xu Jie. To be honest, Peng Yi has never fought a war without air superiority, or since the aircraft was put into use
Since the war, the Chinese Army has never encountered such a thing. Peng Yi, who had been cheering loudly for the wonderful performance of his own tactical air force a few days ago, suddenly realized that maybe tomorrow what happened to the Germans would happen to him.
That depression in my heart.
Although Qin Yue stated that the number of front-line fighter jets will not be less than that of Operation Babylon, the problem is that in order to ensure the safety of the vast airspace from the front line to the rear base, the density of Chinese Air Force fighter jets will definitely decrease, and in order to prevent the opponent's strategic air force from bombing
At the airport, the planes were also destroyed along the way. The deployment of the Chinese Air Force was more dispersed and further back. While improving the survivability of the Air Force, it would definitely affect the help to the Army.
Although the situation is not good, the fight must be fought! As an army general, Peng Yi is still dissatisfied with those guys flying in the air from the bottom of his heart. If nothing else, at least now the budget is divided from two to three. Germany
People can think of the Army having to rely on itself when necessary, and Peng Yi can naturally think of it. So as early as the end of Operation Babylon, Peng Yi made preparations to increase air defense capabilities, and this time, he specially formulated two sets of soft and hard response plans.
To reduce the strike effect of the Allied Air Force.
Hard confrontation is very simple, which is to increase the number of various anti-aircraft guns, especially self-propelled anti-aircraft guns. As early as the beginning of the war, China had stockpiled a large number of self-propelled anti-aircraft guns in Iran modified with Type 26 tank chassis. This type is called a shooter.
This anti-aircraft gun system can accompany mechanized troops in action. The weapons are two 30mm cannons. It was originally intended to install the Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft gun. However, the former is common with the Air Force's 30mm cannon, and its weight and body
The area was more suitable. So I finally gave up on the more powerful 40mm gun. This self-propelled anti-aircraft gun is equipped with an independent rangefinder and a gyroscopic sight. As long as the sight covers the opponent, then adjust the aperture to be equal to the width of the opponent's wing.
Then you can shoot, and the specific ballistic calculations can be handed over to the simulation computer, which greatly improves the accuracy of the anti-aircraft guns. Moreover, these anti-aircraft guns have independent motors for rotation, which improves the reaction speed of the artillery.
At the same time, in order to increase the early warning capability against air strikes, China has also appropriately increased the number of mobile radars deployed. Considering the electronic warfare methods that the Germans may adopt, Chinese technicians have also specially installed some anti-jamming equipment on the radars, especially against
Great efforts have been made to chaff and jamming ropes. According to experimental data, after using new anti-jamming equipment,
.Experienced radar operators can detect targets from interference clouds that are about 20 times stronger. In order to ensure important material distribution bases, China has also appropriately increased the number of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. A large number of 90mm self-propelled anti-aircraft guns have been removed from
The rear areas were transported to the front line. The engineering troops who arrived first also began to build anti-aircraft artillery positions around the base.
As for the so-called soft confrontation? It seems very mysterious. To put it bluntly, it is all kinds of lies! Don’t you know, Cao Chuan borrows arrows, that’s what it means! It’s just made more realistic. While the Chinese combat troops were resting, the engineers
But he was not idle. Under the leadership of a group of technicians who had just come down from the General Staff Headquarters, they began to camouflage bases and frontline troops across China.
"Gather those abandoned vehicles together, they can help us share the bombs. In addition, we took out some inflatable toys from home. These toys are only a few tenths of their actual size when stored, but after inflating, from the air,
It’s hard to tell the difference between real and fake ones. There are also those wooden antennas and various boards that are used to imitate mobile radar stations, hoping to deceive opponents." A
The officer ordered to his subordinates. This kind of thing has appeared in history. During the Normandy landing, the Allies airdropped a large number of dummies to confuse their opponents. At the same time, they also deployed an electronic warfare fleet in the direction of Calais. From the radar screen
From the looks of it, these small boats immediately turned into tall battleships. This was China's first large-scale camouflage. Xu Jie still had high hopes for this.
In addition to ordinary "faking", China also needs to engage in some high-level "faking". For example, camouflage radar stations or command headquarters. In addition to the superficial skills, it also needs to simulate the radio signals of the former. Otherwise, the former needs to be simulated.
If so, when the other party discovers a suspected radar station and fails to detect any electromagnetic waves, wouldn’t the whole show be ruined? Therefore, in the combat records of the German electronic warfare forces, the number of Chinese air radars and headquarters is at
It doubled several times in an extreme period of time!
"Although the Austro-Hungarian Army was severely damaged, the Germans still seemed to have withdrawn some troops from the garrison in Kirkuk to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Kruger Army. Judging from the comparison of military strength, the Germans were better in land and air
All of them had a greater advantage. After a period of rest, the German army on the southern front regained its combat effectiveness.
Quickly, we need at least one armored division and one mechanized brigade to maintain stability on the southern front. Then in the north we can concentrate three main divisions on the front line, and then leave an entire division and the troops directly under the military region as the total reserve force." Peng
Yi revealed his plan at a meeting of senior military officers.
"According to the latest intelligence, the Germans have recruited nearly two infantry divisions from Kirkuk, plus 2 armored divisions and 2 mechanized infantry divisions on the northern front. The opponent has a 2:1 advantage in strength. And they have
There is also the advantage of the air force. Considering that our logistics transportation lines are no longer so reliable, wouldn’t three divisions be less?” Zhou Xuan
Said, as a front-line commander, he has a deep understanding of how bloody the last war was. Although the rear has done its best to supplement the troops, the actual combat effectiveness of his troops is only about 80% of what it was before the war.
!And to the north were 4 fully equipped divisions and 2 cannon fodder divisions, which made him feel very unsafe.
"We still have a paratrooper unit in our hands. Their equipment and quality are unparalleled. If they can be put on the front line, it will greatly change the current situation of insufficient troops on our side." Zhou Xuan thought for a while and added.
road.
"Although these paratroopers are elite, they are light-armed troops after all. Their strength lies in mobility, rather than facing the enemy head-on. It would be a waste if they were simply placed at the front as ordinary infantry. If the paratroopers could be
If the troops are concentrated to interfere with the opponent's rear, the effect will be greater." Xu Huaide said at the side.
"There are two infantry divisions behind! Without a position to rely on, the light paratroopers will not have an advantage when fighting against the infantry divisions. The double-engine firepower composition determines that the paratroopers have a slight advantage in light weapons, but heavy weapons
In terms of firepower, we are completely inferior. If we are on defense, we can still get direct fire support from the army. But if we go out as guerrillas, we won't even have this fire support!" Zhou Xuan retorted.
"It's different. The two infantry divisions that the Germans hired were just goods. Think about it, a lot of the Turks' equipment was given to the Germans. The Austro-Hungarian Empire and us fought twice in a row. They
How much heavy equipment can be left? Personnel can be transferred from Kirkuk, but what about the equipment? The Germans’ supply advantage
It is not that big, and it is impossible to quickly restore the combat effectiveness of the disabled troops on the one hand and add new troops to the establishment on the other. After all, the throughput of Basra Port in the south is limited, and the transportation capacity of the Middle East Railway in the north is also limited." Tian Yong's opinion is more
Tends to Zhou Xuan. Tian Yong doesn't believe how much combat effectiveness these hastily formed infantry divisions can have!
"It is absolutely impossible to fight forcefully. The opponent's overall strength is much stronger than ours. Especially the air force advantage will be huge at the beginning. If we form a rigid formation and fight a stupid war, it will be the same as when we fought with Germany on the southern front
The situation of the battle between divisions is the same, but the two sides exchanged a little bit.
Already. The dominant side always hopes to fight head-on with the other side. If we concentrate all our elites on the front line, the Germans will be very happy. Once the main defense line is penetrated, we will not even have a chance to stabilize the front!" Peng Yi looked at it
Zhou Xuan looked a little embarrassed and continued.
"Of course, what Commander Zhou said makes sense. There is a huge gap in military strength between the enemy and us. If there are not enough troops, we will definitely not be able to stop the Germans' joint ground and air offensive. The other side has the initiative, and we have to determine our plan based on the other side's tactics.
So we need time. We cannot collide with the opponent early. If all four of the opponent's main divisions go into battle, the pressure on our front will be great, but their rear will be empty. They
The deployment will be like a Tibetan mastiff, with an iron head and a tofu waist. If we can use a mobile force to attack the opponent's rear, we will definitely get good results. If they have spare strength, we can rely on the defense line and consume them.
Ichiban. We must invest the most powerful force at the most appropriate time!" Peng Yi came up with a compromise for the two forces, keeping the elite paratroopers in the reserve team. At the same time, they would not let them go easily.
As China's highest-level commander in the Middle East, Peng Yi has far more things to consider than his division commanders. The division commanders on the front line only have to consider the enemy in front of them and the capital at hand, while Peng Yi needs to consider the north and south.
The situation on both fronts. Generally speaking, the pressure on northern China is quite high. The German Air Force will have a huge advantage at the beginning. Qin and Yue’s Air Force will need to draw out considerable
A part of the force was reserved for the strategic bomber force to fight against the Germans. When the other party dominated the sky, it was extremely irrational for the Chinese Army to openly fight with the other party. Therefore, he adopted a drag-and-drop strategy. He consumed the opponent through defense lines and bet on Germany.
The air force was defeated by Qinyue's air defense! When the air situation changes, there will be a decisive battle with the German Army!
Therefore, in order for the German Air Force to launch a comprehensive offensive first, Peng Yi must make the attacking German army feel all kinds of discomfort and discomfort. It became Peng Yi's inevitable choice to consume the opponent through multiple lines of defense and large depth. In order to allow the German Air Force and Army
The general attack can be staggered, at least in the Luftwaffe's general attack
At that time, the German Army will not encounter the main force of China. Peng Yi must carefully hide his main force at the beginning. As the distance increases, the German Air Force's stay in the air will also shorten. When the German Air Force is exhausted, Peng Yi will
Will use the hidden main force to fight against the German Army!
Some people may ask, wouldn’t the German Air Force coordinate with the Army before taking action? What should I say? The different strategic goals between the two sides have made it difficult for the two sides to coordinate combat steps. First of all, the Army is concerned about how the Air Force can ensure that the air force is above its head.
Safety and how to help themselves capture the opponent's position. At least this is what the front-line German commanders think. While considering front-line tactical support, the Air Force also needs to consider attacking local deep targets! Especially attacking the opponent's airport.
Although the German Air Force has a greater advantage, it is far from the advantage that the Chinese Air Force had over the Austro-Hungarian Air Force at the end of Operation Babylon! In that battle, the Austro-Hungarian Air Force was almost driven out of the battlefield by the end, and the Chinese strategic bomber force could attack at will.
.And this time, China still has
It has hundreds of fighter jets and a complete anti-aircraft artillery defense system. It can also continuously replenish fighter jets from China. In order to quickly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Air Force, the German Air Force must also dedicate a certain amount of troops while conducting air strikes on frontline targets.
Conduct strategic bombing of China's rear airports!
So now comes the problem. The Luftwaffe has two combat targets, both of which require a large number of bombers, but the number of fighters is limited! It can only choose one main target for a period of time! If the Luftwaffe follows the Army’s requirements and focuses on tactical air strikes
If so, then the air forces of both sides will enter a war of attrition. China can use a steady stream of fighter jets to gradually consume the valuable strategic bombers of the German Air Force. And if it starts
If the German Army attacks deep targets in China from the beginning, the German Army will not be satisfied. As for letting the Air Force finish the bombing first and then let the Army attack. Then the Chinese Army, which has no pressure, can completely deploy some anti-aircraft guns and radars for support.
The air force's defensive war. Therefore, when the strategic objectives are different, the needs of the German Army and Air Force will inevitably be different. The pace of the two sides can only be as consistent as possible, but cannot achieve complete agreement.
The purpose of China is to make this difference as wide as possible. Of course, the Germans also know this. The Luftwaffe and the Army conducted many coordination before launching this campaign. The Air Force hopes that the Army can first make the Army as able as possible.
to delay the launch date of the campaign in order to conduct an attack on the Chinese Air Force Base
A complete blow, while the Army is worried that when the Air Force focuses on the opponent's air base, it will relax its attack on transportation hubs, which will cause the Chinese Army to become stronger through a steady stream of supplies. The two sides seek common ground while reserving differences in constant disputes.
Gradually finalize every detail of the plan.
Chapter completed!
