“TF?!” Hearing this news, Liu Yan's expression suddenly became richer, and all kinds of expressions of joy, anger and sorrow rolled on his face like a horse, "You want to tell me that country Z has sent troops out on a large scale?" ”
"GDI is a multinational organization under the United Nations, so country Z naturally sent troops to GDI to join and participate, but as you said, that's right, this time it is not the previous kind of sending thousands of people to join to show support, but officially sending troops to participate in this war between humans and Sijing people." When he said this, Lin Hai's voice also trembled a little, and his mood at this time was not so calm, "There are 300,000 troops in the first batch!" Although it is still in the name of GDI troops, GDI actually does not have direct command over them, only tactical advice! Because almost all of the council members who were overwhelmed by the Sijing people voted in favor, the matter was decided. ”
"No direct command? And with the name of GDI? Liu Yan patted his head and said with some embarrassment, "Although I am a compatriot from my own country, but if I do this, if something goes wrong, it will be GDI who bears the infamy?" Would you agree to such conditions? ”
"Yes, while this is risky, it also frees up more of our forces to be used elsewhere. The bottom line is that I'm not really worried about them messing us up. Lin Hai said with a smile, "In addition to the fact that those PLA troops have agreed with us to fight in strict accordance with GDI standards, we have to provide them with some heavy equipment to help them confront the Sijing people head-on, which is also a constraint, and there will also be observers on the Security Council side to follow them all the way." Besides, with the usual behavior pattern of the PLA, they will not mess around. ”
"That's true, but what heavy equipment are we going to provide? How much do you need? We can't provide all the heavy equipment of 300,000 people, right? ”
"Of course not." Lin Hai denied, "Not to mention how long it takes us to produce the heavy equipment we need for 300,000 people, do you think you can use it flexibly after you get some unfamiliar equipment and go to the battlefield immediately?" And it's also technologically advanced heavy equipment? At least give the troops some time to familiarize themselves with the equipment, right? The other troops also need to know how to cooperate, right? So we only provide advanced fighters, tanks, self-propelled guns, these three sets of basic heavy equipment, and the number is only a few hundred, in fact, we also brought heavy equipment to Europe, most of which are also new equipment that they have only obtained in recent years, such as Type 99, PLZ-45 These weapons, the new equipment we provide, but to give them a pre-adaptation, so as to prepare for a large-scale comprehensive re-outfit in the future. It's just that there will be a change of outfit plan after that, and it won't be as hasty as it is now. ”
"Tanks and self-propelled guns, it's okay, if it's an elite veteran, it won't take too long to adapt, but the fighter is different, look at the F-35G model we provide, it's completely the original way of operation, but those M Army pilots who originally flew the F-35 also took more than a month to get used to that improved model. How much time will it take for country Z pilots, who are completely unfamiliar with the performance of the F-35G, to get used to this new aircraft? ”
"It's all foolish operation, and those who can fly third-generation aircraft will be able to get started quickly, and it will take so much time just because the F-35G is just another aircraft in the F-35 skin, and there is a huge gap in performance, and they need to adapt to this difference, but just in operation, there is actually nothing complicated. Pilots from Western countries can adapt to the G type within a month, and of course the pilots of country Z can do it, and we people in country Z are no worse than them. ”
"And what about tanks and artillery? What model are you going to offer? You must know that now we have several main battle tanks in our hands, and although there are few self-propelled gun models, there are still two or three models. But you're not going to give the best away, are you? ”
"Although I still consider myself to be a Z countryman, after all, I am also the commander of the Iron Eagle and the commander-in-chief of GDI, of course, we still have to prioritize our own interests, so of course I will not give away the best equipment, but the cut version of the Shepherd tank, the cut version of the pillar tank, these equipment will not affect our interests, and naturally they can still be provided. As for self-propelled artillery, because we have our own orbital fire strike, so we haven't studied too deeply in this regard, in addition to the Colossus artillery support mecha that has always been there, only the two self-propelled guns of the Poison Scorpion and the Ghost are provided to others, so the PLA does not expect too much in this regard, they also carry the main equipment themselves, and there will be no shortage of weapons in the early operation, and giving them unified equipment is just so that the PLA can adapt to the GDI style of play as soon as possible and unify the logistics of both sides. The most important point is that the PLA is actually not short of equipment, and they have only officially joined the war now, in addition to bringing the country back to completeness, they are also carrying out wartime transformation, and during this time period they can step up the manufacture of a lot of heavy equipment, as for guns, grenades and other light equipment, I don't say that you know whether PLA is lacking, so the reason why they need us to provide some heavy equipment is just to take this opportunity to get some technological innovation, after all, our things are even a deleted version, For countries in this era, it is also advanced equipment. ”
"That's fine." Liu Yan nodded, and it didn't matter if Lin Hai could see it or not, he cracked his mouth and asked with a headache, "You want me to go to Southampton to pick up the reinforcements that have arrived, do you mean that the PLA is the country Y that directly supports first?" ”
"No, it's supporting the whole of Europe at the same time." Lin Hai replied in a calm voice, "300,000 troops, although it is nothing to say that they are all spread out in the whole of Europe, but if they only reinforce a few important battlefields, they are still relatively sufficient troops. On the side of country F and YDL, the situation itself is relatively stable, plus there are some troops of GDI there, so they don't need too many troops to reinforce them, and sending 30,000 or 40,000 people to cooperate with their own army is enough to repel the Sijing people. Although the situation in country D is worse, it is still under control, and at present, the defense forces of country D and our high-mobility rapid reaction force have successfully trapped the airborne Sijing troops in Berlin, and now they are planning to launch a counterattack, and the PLA sent 100,000 people is definitely enough. ”
"In this way, country Y can get at least 100,000 people to support, which is a big deal!" Liu Yan was surprised, "This amount of reinforcements can, to a certain extent, fundamentally change the current situation on the battlefield in country Y!" It's just that to transport 100,000 troops at a time, as well as all their equipment, even we are very troublesome, right? ”
"That's true, if the transport ship of the rapid reaction force is only to transport people, it can transport everyone away at once, but the heavy equipment of 100,000 people can't be transported, but the troops can't be allowed to go to the battlefield with their bare hands, right? So what you have to deal with is only the first batch of 3,000 vanguard troops, a heavy engineering regiment. Although the number of people was small, it was very useful, and most of the transports carrying them, except for the three thousand men, were loaded with their combat equipment. ”
"The vanguard is an engineering regiment?" Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then said with some excitement, "Are you not mistaken? What's the use of sending an engineering team over first? Is it planning to build a wall to trap the Sijing people in London, or are you planning to build a base for the self-use of the expeditionary force of country Z? Doesn't anyone think there's something wrong with this plan? ”
"Didn't you hear me?" Regarding Liu Yan's excitement, Lin Hai said with a headache, "That's the department called the Heavy Engineering Corps, and the equipment of 3,000 people needs a transport ship to transport it, do you really think it's just an engineering unit?" Or do you think that the GDI and the people in the Security Council are fools? ”
"Uh, could it be another army selling dog meat on the head of a sheep?"
"Isn't that a matter of course?" Lin Hai ridiculed his old friend Yichun, and then continued to explain, "In order not to attract too much attention, the vanguard deliberately acted in the name of an engineering regiment, but they were actually a special operations force. ”
"Special forces?"
"Electronically specialized unmanned combat units. You know that country Z has manufactured a lot of first-generation and second-generation technical equipment in those years, such as old-fashioned tanks, airplanes and other equipment. Although the old equipment has been phased out and replaced in recent years, on the one hand, the cost of comprehensive replacement is too high, and some of the old equipment still has a long service time, and the PLA has always been used to saving, so there are still a lot of old equipment still in service in the active army. Even if they are now manufacturing and producing more advanced new equipment developed by the technology we provided before, it is impossible for all the old equipment to be retired, so for the purpose of waste reuse, PLA will carry out unmanned transformation of those old models of equipment - of course, we also provide corresponding modification technology in this regard - to reuse these old equipment and put it on the battlefield to consume. Because it is an unmanned weapon, even if it is completely destroyed, there will be no casualties. ”
"I know that this plan was already going on before I left country Z. But I always thought that the unmanned weapons produced by this project would only be put on the second-line battlefield to deal with those human rebels or guerrillas and the like, and now you say that you will be sent directly to the main battlefield of the first line? The electronic warfare of the Sijing people is stronger than ours, huh? Can you be sure that those unmanned tanks and unmanned fighters made by humans will not all be turned into scrap metal as soon as they enter the battlefield? How many electronic weapons can be abolished by electromagnetic interference alone. ”
"Unmanned weapons will not be allowed to fight alone, with the combat effectiveness of the Sijing troops, those unmanned weapons transformed from old equipment are really just cannon fodder, and those unmanned weapons are only used to reduce the casualties of the Y army, and then collect battlefield data to provide more detailed information for the expeditionary force of country Z that arrived in country Y later."
"But I still can't jump away from the problems I mentioned, electronic interference and electromagnetic pulse destruction. There is a huge gap between human beings and Sijing people in this regard, I have seen some countermeasures in Geneva before, for example, in order to prevent Sijing people from electronic interference with remote control unmanned weapons, human beings simply improve the autonomy of unmanned weapons, as far as possible to reduce the channels of electronic remote control, but with the current technical level of independent judgment ability of unmanned weapons, there is still a certain gap with Sijing people, if there is no human soldiers in the front line for direct command, those human mechanical weapons will only become the target of Sijing people's mechanical weapons. In addition, there is the problem of electromagnetic pulse destruction......"
