Chapter 418: Franco-German War Breaks Out

readx; Britain and the United States have been frantically manufacturing warships since the end of the main force of the navy, and this time they no longer focus on building battleships, but on aircraft carriers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The last time they were played by the Chinese Empire, they finally realized that the battleship was about to retire from the stage of history.

It's just that the performance of the three general-class battleships made Britain and the United States feel very confused.

If the surname of the battleship can really reach the general of the three general-class battleships of the Chinese Empire's equipped navy, then the battleship is still meaningful, but how to make the surname of the battleship reach that level?

This is an unsolvable problem, and no one knows how the Chinese Empire made those three fierce general-class battleships so perverted.

One thing is certain, though, and that is that airplanes have taken mainstream status.

Although the quality of military aircraft is not as good as that of the Chinese Empire, the United States and Britain can achieve an advantage in quantity.

It's just that the United States ignores that the military aircraft of the Chinese Empire are not only better than those of the United States, but also that the industrial scale of the Chinese Empire is much larger than that of the United States.

Especially after the Chinese Empire took Australia, the scale of industry rose to a higher level, although it was not much, but it was a relationship of mutual increase and decrease.

Although the United States has invested a lot of resources in the research and development of military technology, it is obviously impossible to catch up with and surpass the Chinese Empire compared with the continuous accumulation of the Chinese Empire over the past 20 years since its founding.

In addition to this, Britain and the United States are trying to do the work of Germany and France, as well as Italy, in the hope that they will declare war on the Third World Alliance and cobble together their navies to form a new combined fleet.

But all efforts came to naught on February 26, 1938.

Hitler launched a brazen attack on Belgium on the same day, and millions of German troops broke into Belgium with lightning speed, and then attacked France like a sickle.

The Franco-German war broke out again.

There has been direct infighting within the Western World Alliance, which has completely made the United States even worse in terms of strategy.

Once Germany drops the chain and joins the Third World Alliance, then Europe will not be able to stop the Third World Alliance, but in order for Germany not to join the Third World Alliance, Germany will have to annex France.

Now the United States is embarrassed, and Britain is denouncing Germany.

The embarrassment of the United States is that it has to choose one or the other at this time, and it is obviously impossible to abandon Germany, because Germany will join the Third World Alliance, and the Germans will not be as good as the French.

Therefore, the United States decided to abandon France in order to compromise with Germany.

But no matter which one the United States abandons, infighting in the Western world alliance is inevitable.

While attacking France, Hitler obtained a compromise with the United States, and at the same time stabilized the Chinese Empire to avoid the possibility of fighting on two fronts.

In Hitler's plan, first take out France, and then turn back against the Third World Alliance. The mustache's self-confidence is already a little too inflated, he believes that the German Army is the first in the world, even if the Third World Alliance is very strong, but the Third World Alliance still has a Soviet Union! As long as Germany opened up a land connection with the Soviet Union, it would be able to stabilize the front.

What Hitler did not expect, however, was that when Germany launched wars against Belgium, France, and the Netherlands, the Chinese Empire was in contact with the French political axe.

France has been abandoned, and if France does not want to destroy the country, then joining the Third World League would be a better option.

As soon as France joined the Third World Alliance, the Chinese Empire would immediately declare war on Germany, and at the same time attack the West China Field Army Group on the Polish border into Germany to relieve France's danger.

The French political axe was hesitant to do this, because France was still counting on the British.

However, it is clear that Britain then chose to follow in the footsteps of the United States, and while denouncing Germany, Britain ordered the British troops not to engage in an exchange of fire with the Germans on the grounds of so-called 'European unity'.

In the face of the unstoppable German army, France launched an attack on the British army in France on March 2, and at the same time announced its membership in the Third World Alliance and declared war on the United States, Britain, Germany, and Canada.

At the same time, the Third World Alliance declared war on Germany.

Before Germany could even react to what was going on, the Third World Alliance declared war on Germany.

The West China Field Army Group was said to have launched an attack on Prussia in East Germany from the Polish border, but because Germany had transferred most of its forces to attack France and knew that its forces were weak, it was said that the West China Field Army Group had broken through to Prussia for more than 100 kilometers.

The Soviet Union was in a hurry, and the Soviet Union was counting on Europe to do something, and now the Third World Alliance suddenly invaded Germany, and if Germany was destroyed and France joined the Third World Alliance, then there would be only one Soviet Union left on the European continent.

After nearly two months of bombing, the territory of the Soviet Union was bombed to a pulp, and the number of Kunpeng 2 bombers of the Imperial Chinese Air Force skyrocketed to 800.

At this time, social production in the USSR almost came to a standstill, and although many underground factories were established in the USSR, these underground factories could not replace the status of surface factories.

At the same time, various infrastructure facilities were bombed into disarray, and the functioning of society in the entire Soviet Union was thrown into chaos.

If we do not attack in one fell swoop to reverse the disadvantage, then the Soviet Union will gradually come to an end.

The longer it drags on, the more detrimental it will be to the USSR.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the West China Field Army Group to attack Germany, the Soviet Union launched an attack on the Caucasus region where the Sino-Russian coalition forces were located on 6 March.

In this attack, the Soviet Union mobilized nearly 300 divisions and nearly 5 million troops to launch an attack on the Sino-Russian coalition forces in three directions.

As soon as the army moved, the tragic air battle began again.

However, this tragedy was for the Soviet Air Force, because of the superiority of the radar of the Chinese Imperial Air Force, the Soviet planes would be known as soon as they flew together, and they were shot down by the fighters of the Sino-Russian coalition.

At this time, the equipment of the Soviet Army was not bad, all of them were American technology or military equipment made in combination with American technology, and in terms of army equipment, it was even better than that of the American Army.

However, these are traditional equipment.

On 6 March, the Imperial Chinese Army sacrificed a weapon of mass destruction, rocket artillery.

20,000 large-caliber self-propelled rocket launchers struck a fierce blow at the middle and rear sections of the Soviet Army, and according to tests, one large-caliber rocket launcher had 303 times more firepower than a 26mm self-propelled howitzer.

Torrential steel rain fell from the sky, and the marching Soviet Army was hit with near-destruction, and the steel rain came in waves, and the fragments and fuel of the rocket explosion formed a dead zone.

The rockets landed on a large walk, but there were so many rockets in the Chinese Empire that they bombarded a large area marked on the map as if they didn't need money.

From above, the area where the Soviet Army attacked was a sea of fire.

The price of rockets is much more expensive than ordinary artillery shells, but since the beginning of the wartime supply system in the Chinese Empire, nearly 10 million laborers have been allocated to make rockets.

The most expensive part of rockets is the engine and fuel, and the Chinese Empire has a huge automobile production line, and the output of engines is even more staggering.

At this time, there were still more than one million large rockets piled up in warehouses on the border between Soviet and Russian, while the Chinese Empire was able to produce more than 50,000 large rockets a day at this time, and the production was still expanding.

For the commander of the Imperial Chinese Army, winning a war is nothing, and winning a war with the least cost or casualties is the real ability.

As the saying circulated among the Imperial Army: "Whoever commands can win the war if he is not an idiot." ”

But in terms of the national strength of the Chinese Empire at this time, the cost was not important, and it was important to reduce casualties. Therefore, the measure of whether a commander is competent is not how many expensive rockets he shoots, but how many imperial soldiers are killed and wounded in the course of the war.

At this time, Zhang Jiyu, who was in charge of commanding the North China Field Army Group, and Lin Chenggui, who commanded the Northeast Field Army Group, both waved their hands, and all 20,000 large-caliber self-propelled rocket launchers went into battle.

Large-caliber self-propelled rocket artillery is 20 tubes, which means that these 20,000 self-propelled rocket launchers can shoot 400,000 large-caliber rockets in one salvo.

On the rocket artillery position, I saw rows and rows of rocket artillery launched like raindrops with the cooperation of the air force's reconnaissance planes.

The rocket artillery technology of the Chinese Empire is relatively mature, but it is still a little worse in terms of accuracy, but it is enough to make up for the lack of accuracy in terms of quantity.

The officers and men of the various units who were already on standby on the front line suddenly saw a ball of light flashing overhead, and they all looked up, and everyone opened their mouths wide.

These balls of light are brighter than cannonballs, and their velocity is faster than cannonballs, almost fleeting.

Under the intensive rocket bombardment of the marching Soviet Army, some Soviet units and even entire divisions were enveloped in the steel rain falling from the sky, and the entire division was directly wiped out.

The Soviet Army, which was advancing in an offensive formation, was hit by a devastating blow in the middle and rear, and heavy artillery fire in the front.

More than 30,000 large-caliber self-propelled guns of various types bombarded the Soviet Army indiscriminately, and at the same time, more than 8,000 tactical bombers of the Imperial Chinese Air Force were dispatched one after another.

The Chinese Empire and the Soviet Union are not at all a high-grade country, and the Soviet Army and the Chinese Empire play field warfare, which is completely tantamount to looking for death.

As for the Russian Army, the individual equipment is the same as that of the Chinese Empire, and the same is true for combat vehicles, but the Russian Army does not have so many self-propelled guns, nor does it have such a large air force, let alone rocket artillery.

If the Russian Army and the Soviet Army fought, then it was not known who would win and who would lose, but if the Chinese Empire were involved in this war, then the Soviet Union would definitely lose in a head-to-head confrontation.

Under the heavy bombardment, the attacking Soviet Army was almost all beaten to a standstill.

The fire is so fierce!

The Sino-Russian coalition thwarted the Soviet offensive sharply, and the panzer division immediately advanced.

The torrent of steel ran towards the Soviet Army.

At the same time, only half of the 20,000 self-propelled rocket launchers were destroyed, and 10,000 self-propelled rocket launchers followed the advance of the large army. Another 10,000 self-propelled rocket launchers went back to loading rockets, and these large-caliber rockets were more troublesome to load.

In terms of the strength of the Imperial Chinese Army, the field battle was basically invincible.

More than 5 million Soviet Red Army retreated with great interest, and before the attack could come into direct contact, more than 5 million Soviet Red Army troops were killed and wounded, and countless more were wounded.

Fortunately, the retreat was timely and did not fall into the encirclement.

The Soviets withdrew to the defensive line, and the Sino-Russian coalition forces stopped, and instead of attacking the Soviet defensive line, they continued to carry out heavy artillery strikes and bombardments on the Soviet defensive line.

The Soviet defense line was very strong, and because the Soviet Union received strong assistance from the United States, the Soviet Union did not have to worry about food and other issues, so it was able to draw out more manpower to repair the defense line, and for this reason the Soviet Union had built the defense line for more than ten years, which should have been nearly 15 years.

In fifteen years, the whole people built a defensive line, and the Soviet Union built a large number of defensive lines and a large number of strong fortresses.

If the Sino-Russian coalition forces really collided directly, it would really bleed from the scalp, and the solidity of these defensive lines and fortresses has exceeded the general sense of the defensive line and fortresses.

After all, the Soviet Union was a country that had received technical assistance from the United States, and there was basically not much gap between its productivity and that of the United States.

These lines of defense, which are generally difficult for tanks to cross, and with basements underneath, bombardment is generally not very effective.

In order to test the strength of the Soviet defensive line, the Chinese Empire heavily bombed an area about a kilometer long section of the forward defensive line.

Two hours later, the Russian Army advanced and went to the mines.

There is a division of labor between the Chinese and Russian coalition forces, and the Chinese Empire generally does not care about the problem of attacking fortifications, but will provide strong fire support to the Russian army.

Like this kind of defense line, the field army of the Chinese Empire will still fight, but urban street fighting, then don't count on the Chinese Empire, the field army is a field battle, not a street battle.

As expected, the Russian army had just advanced not far from the Soviet line when a violent explosion rang out, and the ground shook violently.

An anti-tank trench about eight meters wide appeared, which was blown up by the Soviet Red Army with explosives.

The Russian Army's advance was directly blocked, and at the same time, under the bombed-up defense line in front, there were actually many Soviet Red Army, and the machine guns were aimed at the Russian Army in a fierce strafing fire.

The Russian army touched the ashes of the nose, and the anti-tank trenches were too wide, and the bridge-building vehicles could not be used at all, so they had to retreat in disgrace.

Seeing this situation, Lin Chenggui and Zhang Jiyu also had a bottom in their hearts, discussed for a while, and formulated a new attack plan.

However, it was not yet spring at this time, and the two were not in a hurry to attack.

The cold was not good for the soldiers of the Chinese Empire, and attacking in a cold climate would result in greater casualties, although this was no longer Siberia, and it would not be so terrifyingly cold, but before the arrival of spring, everything was possible, especially in times of war, and the chances of such extreme weather were even infinite.

It's not that the Imperial Chinese Army can't fight tough battles, but it can't fight without fighting. The cost of education in the Chinese Empire has become the highest in the world, and the pension is also the highest in the world.

The current war is no longer the Sino-Shandong War of 24 years ago, when the cost of soldiers was relatively low. Until now, it is better to knock out 100,000 yuan of ammunition to achieve the effect than to exchange the death of a soldier.

After this harsh lesson, the Soviet Union absolutely did not dare to attack again, and the Chinese Empire could first destroy Germany, and then destroy the Netherlands, Spain, Italy and other countries, although these countries did not participate in the war and were neutral countries at this time, but they had invaded China in history, and the time for reckoning had come.

At the same time, France is also in the ranks of liquidation, but in a different way.

……

Since the main force of the German Army ran to the Western Front, the Chinese Empire invaded Germany from the Eastern Front, and the result was that it was like no one.

Under heavy artillery fire and air support, the Germans were largely defenseless.

There is not much difference between a country like Germany and a small country, it may be very strong tactically, but the overall strength is not very strong, and in the face of such an absolute force as the Chinese Empire, except for guerrilla warfare, the Chinese Imperial Army does not have any formal tactics at all.

In order not to make a mistake, the West China Field Army Group of the Chinese Empire sacrificed a weapon of mass destruction -- helicopter gunships.

At this time, most of the Chinese army are mechanized armored troops, and they have changed to new combat vehicles, and they are naturally not afraid of fighting armor with Germany, but it is easier to equip armed helicopters and solve the Germans more quickly.

Helicopter gunships are specially designed to counter combat vehicles, and these helicopter gunships are loaded with rockets, and their firepower is so fierce that they are simply the nemesis of combat vehicles. At the same time, the helicopter gunships were equipped with an electric machine gun, which was a nightmare for the infantry.

According to the experiment of the Chinese Imperial Combat Experimental Battalion, the ratio of the destruction of armed helicopters to combat vehicles is 1:76, which means that 1 armed helicopter can destroy 76 combat vehicles.

Hitler, in the face of the West China Field Army Group that invaded Germany, frantically called on the German people to resist, but the effect was obviously not great.

The Germans were good at playing tactics, but they were actually not very strong-willed, and in the face of an invincible enemy, they would not fight to the end.

Therefore, street fighting in Germany will not be as brutal as fighting in the Soviet Union, and the Germans will not be as crazy as they are themselves.

Hitler had a feeling that he had been deeply deceived, and Xia Jun had written to him before, saying that China and Germany were best friends, and that the friendship between the two peoples was deeper than the Pacific Ocean, and that it would all become a lie.

Before China declared war on Germany, it did not even give Germany time to react.

If it is really a friend, then after France joins the Third World Alliance, Germany should be warned not to continue to use force, so that Hitler will also think about it.

At this time, Hitler really realized that Germany was just a pawn of China.
