Chapter 280: Seize air supremacy
Early in the morning of November 3, 1672 in the Han calendar, the envoy sent by Liu Jiarui, the king of the Han Kingdom, came to the airport where the fourth division of the original Han Air Force was stationed.
When the envoy saw the so-called rebel leader, he breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, as King Liu Jiarui expected, Su Yi was the leader of the rebel army that captured the airfield of the Fourth Air Force Division.
Su Yi was slightly stunned when he saw the envoy sent by King Liu Jiarui, "Prime Minister Qian, I didn't expect you to come." ”
It turned out that the envoy sent by King Liu Jiarui was Qian Jianrong, the deputy prime minister of the Han Kingdom.
Qian Jianrong said with a wry smile to Su Yi: "Donkey, the old man is really ashamed, for the sake of the old man's family, the old man has to obey all the orders of the new king, and now the entire cabinet has been completely controlled by His Majesty the king." ”
Su Yi then said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Qian, you came here this time, I don't know what my eldest brother has to say to me?" ”
Qian Jianrong hesitated for a moment and said: "The old man is here, firstly, to confirm whether the airfield of the Fourth Division of the Air Force is occupied by the horses, and secondly, to bring the sincerity of His Majesty's wish to recruit the horses. ”
A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Su Yi's mouth, "I want to hear what sincerity my eldest brother has?" ”
Qian Jianrong then said: "As long as the horse is loyal to His Majesty the King, the horse will still be the deputy commander-in-chief of the Han Navy, and His Majesty the King will also promote the horse to the rank of marshal." ”
"Is my eldest brother so sincere?" The disdain on Su Yi's face became even stronger.
Qian Jianrong sighed and said: "Donkey, although the three major military regions do not recognize the legitimate status of the new king, and even the three major military regions have all announced that they have separated from the sequence of the national defense army and formed the so-called rebel army, but not all the troops in the three major military regions have joined the rebel army, and many division commanders and brigade commanders have actually been loyal to His Majesty the King, plus His Majesty the King controls the Southeast Military Region and the Tianjing Military Region, which have the strongest military strength, and the rebellion in the three military regions should not last long. ”
Su Yi waved his hand and said: "Prime Minister Qian, I don't see the general trend on my eldest brother's side, a rebellious prince, oh, it is said that my eldest brother is not the biological son of my father, then even the prince is not counted, what can be the general trend!" ”
After the insider sent the truth that Liu Jiarui was not the biological son of the old king Liu De to the major newspapers of the Han Kingdom, although with the joint efforts of Liu Jiarui and his real biological father, Zhang Yuan, the vice minister of finance, the truth of this matter was not reported, but this matter was still reported, and now there are dozens of versions of Liu Jiarui's life experience among the people.
Qian Jianrong persuaded again: "Donny horse, if the horse is not willing to be loyal to His Majesty the King, then it won't be long before the Han Army and the Han Air Force stationed in the Tianjing City area will attack the horse, and the old man feels that the horse should think about it again, after all, there are three mechanized infantry divisions, eight light infantry divisions and three armored tank brigades stationed in the Tianjing City area alone, and His Majesty the King can also send hundreds of thousands of army troops into the Tianjing City area at any time." ”
Su Yi smiled indifferently and said: "Prime Minister Qian, the new king even wants my life, it doesn't make sense to say anything about being loyal or not, I, Su Yi, are waiting at this airport, so that the new king can let the horse come over and want my Su Yi's life, but it's not so easy!" ”
Qian Jianrong heard the firmness in Su Yi's words, and knew that it was impossible to change Su Yi's mind even if he let what he said fall wildly, Qian Jianrong sighed again, "Since the horse has made up its mind, the old man won't say anything more, I hope the horse can be safe!" By the way, the old man has a doubt, where did these troops and tanks under the command of the horse come from? ”
Su Yi smiled slightly, "Prime Minister Qian, if you don't have some hole cards, I don't dare to break my wrist with the new king." ”
After Qian Jianrong, the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, returned to the palace in Tianjing City, he met Liu Jiarui, the new king of the Han Kingdom, and hurriedly recounted the experience of meeting Su Yi to Liu Jiarui in detail.
After Liu Jiarui listened to the report of Qian Jianrong, the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, he couldn't help but have a murderous aura in his eyes, "I didn't expect that it was really the good brother-in-law of this king, who let him escape before, but now he sent it to the door himself." ”
Qian Jianrong hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know where to transfer at least tens of thousands of troops, maybe even more, and now I control those fourth-generation fighters of the fourth division of the Air Force, if you fight hard, you may need to pay a lot of price, do you want to send someone to talk to the horse again?" The minister felt that the colt might not be satisfied with the conditions given by His Majesty the King! ”
Liu Jiarui said categorically: "This king thinks that the previous conditions are too high, since this king's brother-in-law doesn't know what to do, then don't blame this king for not being emotional." ”
Then Liu Jiarui turned his head and said loudly to Yang Guanghao, commander-in-chief of the Han Army: "Immediately mobilize the 1st Armored Tank Brigade, the 2nd Armored Tank Brigade, the 3rd Mechanized Infantry Division, the 14th Light Infantry Division, the 22nd Light Infantry Division, the 37th Light Infantry Division and the 69th Light Infantry Division to attack the airfield of the Fourth Air Force Division, and at the same time order the Third Air Force Division and the Fifth Air Force Division to provide air support to the army offensive troops, cooperating with the 3rd Air Force Division and the 5th Air Force Division to launch an attack on the rebels. ”
In order to conquer the airfield occupied by Su Yi's troops, Liu Jiarui gathered two armored tank brigades, one mechanized infantry division and four light infantry divisions at once, almost reaching half of the strength of the Han army in the Tianjing area.
Yang Guanghao immediately received the order and said: "Yes, Your Majesty the King!" Our garrison in the Tianjing City area will definitely exterminate the rebels led by the horse as soon as possible. ”
What the new king Liu Jiarui did not expect was that the two armored tank brigades, one mechanized infantry division and four light infantry divisions that were preparing to attack the airfield of the Fourth Air Force Division had not yet completed their assembly, and the troops under Su Yi made the first big move.
At 10 a.m. on November 3, Su Yi dispatched more than 400 main battle tanks and tens of thousands of clone soldiers to suddenly attack the camp of the 69th Light Infantry Division of the Han Army.
Soon, the 3rd and 5th Divisions of the Dahan Air Force sent a large number of fourth-generation fighters to fly over the camp of the 69th Light Infantry Division to compete for air supremacy with the fourth-generation fighter group under Su Yi, and an air battle immediately began.
The pilots who flew the fourth-generation fighters under Su Yi were all air-force clone soldiers produced by the system, and all of them could be called ace pilots, and those ace pilots in the third and fifth divisions of the Dahan Air Force were all detained in the camp of the first mechanized infantry division of the Dahan Army at this time.
Although the fighters of the two sides are the same, and they are both equipped with -16 fighters and -15 fighters, because of the gap in pilot technology between the two sides, after the air battle began, the 3rd and 5th divisions of the Dahan Air Force soon fell into a situation of being passively beaten, and one after another expensive fourth-generation fighters were shot down.
Due to the lack of favorable air support from the two air divisions, the 69th Light Infantry Division gathered all three main infantry brigades together, and there was no way to block the attack of more than 400 main battle tanks and tens of thousands of clone soldiers; by 2 o'clock in the afternoon of 3 November, the entire 69th Light Infantry Division had been completely defeated, and a large number of officers and men of the 69th Light Infantry Division had chosen to surrender, and even several other Han Army units that came to the aid of the 69th Light Infantry Division also suffered considerable losses.
At the very moment when the 69th Light Infantry Division was defeated, hundreds of fourth-generation fighters suddenly launched a surprise air attack on the garrisons of other Han armies in the Tianjing City area, as well as the airfields of the 3rd and 5th Air Force Divisions.
Originally, the airfield of the Fourth Division of the Air Force occupied by Su Yi could not put too many fighters, but at the suggestion of Xu Dongke, an all-round senior elite combat biochemical man, Su Yi asked the clone soldiers and cyborg soldiers under his command to urgently build some temporary aprons around the airport, so that Su Yi could extract more fourth-generation fighters from the system item warehouse.
In the system mall of the world on the side of the Tang Empire, Su Yi can buy an all-round senior elite combat biochemical every year, and the all-round senior elite combat biochemical quota in the Tang calendar in 3017, Su Yi has not purchased it, this time Su Yi opened the interstellar door, preparing to let 300,000 army-type primary combat biochemical people enter the Han Kingdom At the same time, Su Yi bought the all-round senior elite combat biochemical who could be purchased in the system mall, that is, the all-round senior elite combat biochemical Xu Dongke, Su Yi was ready to ask Xu Dongke to help him lead the world's army on the side of the Han Kingdom.
The all-round high-level elite combat cyborg is far more talented in military affairs than the army-type combat clone, and is the best candidate for the commander of the army.
Su Yi sent more than 400 main battle tanks and tens of thousands of clone soldiers to take the initiative to attack the 69th Light Infantry Division, which was also Xu Dongke's suggestion, mainly to attract the attention of the Han Army in the Tianjing City area, so as to buy time and allow Su Yi to extract more fourth-generation fighters into the real world.
In modern warfare, whoever controls air supremacy will have the initiative in war.
After hundreds of fourth-generation fighters under Su Yi's command carried out air raids on the garrisons of various Han Army units in the Tianjing City area, a larger-scale attack by Su Yi's army units was also launched.
At about eight o'clock in the evening of November 3, in a large hall of the Tianjing City Palace, Liu Jiarui, the king of the Han Kingdom, asked more than a dozen high-ranking military and political officials with a gloomy face: "Do any of you have any good suggestions for the current situation?" ”
In the face of the attack of the air force and army under Su Yi, the Han army stationed in the Tianjing area, not to mention the counteroffensive against the airfield of the fourth division of the air force occupied by Su Yi, and even the guarded Tianjing City, have become precarious, up to now, the Han Army stationed in the Tianjing area has an armored tank brigade, a mechanized infantry division and three light infantry divisions have completely lost their formation, and the entire suburbs of Tianjing City have almost been occupied by the army units under Su Yi's command. Most of the remaining Han Army units in the Tianjing City area had to retreat into the urban area of Tianjing City.
The fourth-generation fighters of the 3rd and 5th Air Force Divisions of the Dahan Air Force were also lost in the air battle with the 4th generation fighters under Su Yi's command, and now even the airfields where the 3rd Air Force Division and the 5th Air Force Division are stationed have fallen into the hands of Su Yi's troops, that is to say, the three air divisions of the Dahan Air Force in the Tianjing City area have all been wiped out.
Yang Guanghao, commander-in-chief of the Han Army, immediately said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, God knows where Su Yi got so many fourth-generation fighters from again, and the air supremacy in the entire Tianjing City area has been completely controlled by the rebel air force. ”
King Liu Jiarui waved his hand a little annoyed, "This king knows all these situations, and now this king is asking you if there is any good way to turn the tide of the battle in Tianjing City?" ”
At this time, Yang Yuandu, chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, said: "Your Majesty, the current situation can only call on the garrisons of other parts of the Tianjing Military Region to reinforce the capital Tianjing City, and at the same time order the other four air divisions of the Tianjing Military Region to provide air support for the various army units in the Tianjing City area. ”
Because of the relationship between Yang Yuandu and Yang Guanghao, after Yang Yuandu was released, he still held the position of chief of the general staff of the National Defense Forces, but King Liu Jiarui did not trust Yang Yuandu, so although Yang Yuandu was named chief of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces, he had no rights in his hands.
King Liu Jiarui nodded slightly and said: "What Chief of General Staff Yang said is reasonable, now we can only mobilize more troops to Tianjing City, and as for air supremacy, we can only count on the remaining four air divisions of the Tianjing Military Region, what other suggestions does Chief of General Staff Yang have?" ”
Yang Yuandu hesitated slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the combat effectiveness displayed by the rebels is too strong, in order to avoid any accidents, the minister suggests that His Majesty the King had better avoid it for the time being." ”
After Yang Yuandu's words were finished, King Liu Jiarui's face immediately became even more gloomy.
