Chapter 410: Some Trivia Before the Great War
The young staff officer seriously proposed a method of warfare.
He thought that we could draw the attention of the two Wanhu provinces by borrowing the methods of direct surprise landings by the black and white races and the Goryeo and Japanese stormtroopers, and that when the enemy wanted to encircle and annihilate our stormtroopers, we could play the role of artillery bombardment on the surface of the Haihe River, and that the subsequent main forces could choose any suitable place to land and launch further attacks at any time------ so why hope that the army would attract them away?
Wouldn't it be more useful to gather and annihilate them?!
Imperial Navy Minister Guo Beyu looked at this young staff officer with a smile, although this is just a tactical play, it should indeed be able to achieve a certain effect, but, has he considered the losses of the stormtroopers?!
A storm trooper of more than 2,000 men may suffer heavy losses.
The size of the black and white race and the Goryeo and Japanese stormtroopers has now begun to shrink, from nearly 10,000 at the beginning to a brigade-sized unit of about 2,000 now.
The Imperial Army did not carry them with them this time, but handed them over to the Imperial Navy.
Maybe the army thinks that their strength is the most powerful in this plane, and they don't need to fight each other at all, so this style of fighting with stormtroopers is not useful.
The Marines were limited in number, so they might be more needed to fight with bayonets when they landed.
However, in the battle, with 2,000 people luring nearly 20,000 people to the river------ how long can these two thousand people resist?!
The young staff officer confidently took out a set of data at this time:
Fired on land under normal weather conditions, the range of artillery hits is about fifteen meters.
Fired above a river or lake under normal climate, the range of the artillery hit was about thirty meters.
Launched on the sea surface under normal weather conditions, the range of the artillery hit is about fifty meters.
This set of data was obtained during various live-fire exercises and has a high degree of reliability.
The young staff officer finally stated:
"As long as the continuous artillery bombardment can be maintained for ten to twenty minutes, the enemy's 20,000 infantry and cavalry mixed forces will definitely lose two to three percent of their strength!
At that time, the main forces of our marines can be annihilated in one fell swoop! ”
Imperial Navy Minister Guo Beyu smiled appreciatively at him, and instructed his aides to put his suggestions on file.
Of course, it is still necessary to build on the previous strategic plan.
Shandong Army Barracks.
War Minister Bowe smiled after receiving the telegram from the navy, our army has not put enough military pressure on the Tatars?
I really want our army to work hard.
He immediately sent a telegram back saying that our army would fight a decisive battle with the enemy in Baoding City in the near future, and he asked his naval colleagues to wait for the results of the battle.
After sending the telegram, he walked to the large military map and drew a large exclamation mark on the location of Baoding City with a bronze colored pen.
This will be the crucial first battle!
The Liuqiu Times of the Federal Empire and the Minsheng Bao of the Great Song Dynasty were the first two newspapers to publish the news of the reconquest of Zhending City.
Both of them sent war writers and photographers------ and the two newspapers were in competition.
It's just that one focuses on admiring the powerful attack power of the Federal Empire, and the other focuses on talking about the historical significance of the Great Song Dynasty's recovery of Zhending City.
But one way or another, their coverage has left people ecstatic.
Xinbianjing City is full of joy, as if it has passed another Spring Festival------ if the sixteen states of Youyun are recovered, then the great Song Dynasty can be protected for thousands of years!
In the storytelling place of Goolan Washer, some storytellers pinched together the news they saw in the newspaper or hearsay rumors, and made up many jokes to tell them, and they could get more red envelopes than usual in one game!
The people of the Badaohe region were also happy, the imperial army captured a major town as soon as it struck, what a strength!
A considerable number of veterans were very upset that they did not catch up with this good opportunity to make a meritorious service------ and after work, they vented their bitterness with their former comrades in taverns, teahouses, cafes and bathing centers.
Many people threatened that if they caught up with this war, they would definitely get the rank of captain or above, and it was certain that they would become a company commander.
People tend to think highly of their abilities in their assumptions.
Empire State Building.
Wu Dapeng hurried back to the Tianzhu area with the required personnel and materials; Wang Defa handed over the construction of Manila City and Batavia City to his assistant, and he wanted to stay with Song Ziqiang and Wan Shida to focus on military production and material allocation.
After the military mobilization order was officially issued, a large number of military supplies began to be transported to Shandong in large quantities.
Moreover, they were also responsible for the transportation of personnel from Goryeo and Japan to the Great Song Dynasty.
This military mobilization was not intended to affect commercial and trade activities, but sometimes it could not but be affected.
In order to quickly transport military personnel from Goryeo and Japan, some sea flights from Liuqiu Island to the Great Song had to be suspended, and professional passenger ships turned to those two countries to help transport troops.
At this busy time, Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, informed the Federal Imperial Consulate in the Great Song Dynasty that he was about to meet with King Zhang Anguo.
King Zhang Anguo had to find time to deal with him.
Chen Yizhong, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, broke the diplomatic record of the Great Song government, and he would be the highest-ranking official among those visiting other countries.
Moreover, his arrival also shoulders several important missions.
He wanted the old empress dowager to hint at King Zhang Anguo's request for marriage------ and the old empress dowager Xie certainly needed King Zhang Anguo to propose to the Great Song Dynasty.
Zhang Anguo and Jing knew about this marriage in advance------ for Zhang Zhansheng's identity, this era is far from the era of free love and independent decision, if Zhang Zhansheng is allowed to decide the marriage by himself, it will give others a feeling of unreliability and insecurity, especially in the case of the other party's special identity.
Zhang Anguo and Jing Jing focused on agreeing to this marriage, they investigated the princess Zhao Yujiao, who was in good health, had a good personality, and had a lovely face.
She was familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and she loved to read the serialized stories in the Liuqiu Times------ and most importantly, like her brothers, she loved the life of the Federal Empire, and it was said that whenever a new women's clothing appeared in the Violet brand, she must be the first to own it.
Jing Jing talked to his son Zhang Zhansheng, and finally persuaded his son to accept the marriage.
After all, the kind of chance encounters, love at first sight, and free love are basically fairy tales for young people.
As long as the son agreed, everything was easy, and it was easy to reply to Chen Yizhong.
The point is that Chen Yizhong may have other requirements, otherwise he would not be so eager to come to the Federal Empire.
