Chapter 1590 Wind and Clouds

Xiaonanhai, Anyuan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At half past twelve o'clock at noon, An Yi and Ou Chuer set up a family banquet to entertain Gong Qian, Zhou Chong'an, He Jing, Le Cheng, Zheng Jun, Liu Hong and other core members of the economy.

The reason why An Yi made political, military, and economic explanations at the meeting was to boost the morale of government officials and make everyone understand that South China is no longer a servant or vassal of the great powers, but an independent state and an equal political and economic entity, and that there is no need to grovel in foreign affairs and seek perfection everywhere.

"In terms of military spending, we subsidized $23.97 million last month, mainly for the manufacture of ships, airships, missiles, helicopters, self-propelled artillery and other weapons. In the future, after the establishment of diplomatic relations with Britain, the United States, and France, they will certainly ask us to publish the national defense budget, and we will hand over the part of the government allocation to them.

"The military investment we have allocated through formal financial channels is far less than that of the great powers, and this will greatly dispel the suspicion of Britain, France, the United States and other countries. When war breaks out in Europe in the future, and the countries are too busy to take care of themselves, we will be able to develop our navy, land and air forces as we like! ”

After Zhou Chongan finished speaking, he stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed the chopsticks to dry the pot and fat intestines, sent them to his mouth and chewed them slowly, savoring them. From the reporter of "Declaration" to the general manager of Jiangnan Group, Zhou Chongan has long adapted to the diet of various places, but he has a special hobby for highlighting the fresh and spicy Sichuan cuisine.

Gong Qian felt something, and couldn't help but look at An Yi, seeing that he was staring at herself, a trace of an ambiguous smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, thinking of the spring light last night, she couldn't help but blush.

Gong Qian held the post of head of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Nanyang National Nationalist Party, but in order to avoid causing a backlash from the foreign powers, this political party, which aimed to overthrow the colonial rule of the foreign powers in Nanyang, played more of a role in decorating the political façade of the An Yi group, and the party departments in Nanyang were still in the stage of secretly inspecting and recruiting party members. Gong Qian still stayed in Syria, leading the government affairs of the Syrian Government Appeasement Office, and at the same time managing the group's scientific and technological and cultural affairs, and was regarded as the highest civil affairs official of the Anyi Group in southern Sichuan.

After calming down a little, Gong Qian said with a serious face: "After deducting the special research funds, our research institute used 23.61 million US dollars in funds in the first five months to make certain progress in the research of rockets, radars, radios, computers, medicine, atomic energy, etc., among which the major breakthroughs made in aircraft engines that can be used for military purposes are those that can be used for military purposes. At the end of April, we successfully developed a 1,600 horsepower 14-cylinder air-cooled engine with our own property rights, and then the Syrian Aircraft Manufacturing Company began to research combat aircraft mainly for ground attack around this new engine. Before I came to the meeting, I had already started building a prototype.

"The most ingenious design of this new ground attack fighter is that the streamlined armor is used as the aircraft skeleton, and the motors, cockpits, engines and other vital parts are all installed in a strong and reliable armored body. In order to save costs, the rear fuselage of the fighter is made of wood, the wings and tail are made of duralumin material, and the most important fuselage is equipped with a 15mm thick nickel-molybdenum alloy armor plate, the cockpit is equipped with a thickness of 57 mm high-strength bulletproof glass, the weapon is two 37 mm guns in the nose, a 12.7mm machine gun on each side of the wings, and the magazine in the lower part of the fuselage can carry six 100 kg bombs, and a device that can launch rockets is also installed under the wings, which can carry out precise attacks on the ground with ten rockets at the same time. ”

Gong Qian's report lifted An Yi's spirits: "Isn't this kind of fighter better than the Q1 attack aircraft improved by the AB26 fighter?" ”

Gong Qian took a sip of orange juice, and then said slowly: "The performance should be about the same, but the problem with the Q1 attack aircraft is that the cost is much higher, and the production and maintenance are more troublesome, while the new ground attack aircraft is convenient to manufacture in large quantities." The General Logistics Department had a budget for the production of five new ground attack aircraft, and only three Q1 attack aircraft could be built, and the production time was only half that of the Q1 attack aircraft. ”

An Yi bowed slightly: "In this case, let the Syrian Aircraft Company seize the time to develop, if necessary, we can send personnel from other aircraft companies and research institutes to assist, now the mass production of the Leopard II tank is imminent, if it is matched with this new ground attack aircraft, air-ground cooperation, our opponent is in trouble!" ”

Ou Chuer sandwiched a piece of spicy fried clams for Gong Qian, who was sitting on the other side of An Yi, and said with a smile: "Sister, it's really hard for you, if you didn't stay in Syria and keep the family for Brother Yi, it would be impossible for Brother Yi to concentrate on military affairs, and the little sister is proud of her sister." ”

An Yi picked up the orange juice with both hands and turned to Gong Qian: "Sister, it's noon, you can't drink, the younger brother uses juice instead of wine, thank my sister for her hard work for the younger brother." ”

Gong Qian glanced at An Yi charmingly: "Do we still need to say this between our sisters and brothers?" You are my brother, I don't help you, who will help you? After speaking, he picked up the juice and put it down with a sip.

An Yi smiled, raised his head and drank the juice, and then talked to He Jing, Le Cheng, Zheng Jun, Liu Hong and others for a while, and after lunch, it was already half past one in the afternoon.

The guests left, An Yi accompanied Ou Chuer to say a lot of intimate words, and returned to the office of the Qinzheng Building of the Zhizheng Hall at two o'clock in the afternoon.

An Yi was sorting out the documents, beckoned Liu Qing to sit down on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, motioned to the secretary to make tea for Liu Qing, and sat opposite Liu Qing with a teacup.

Liu Qing took out a telegram from his briefcase and handed it to An Yi:

"The Royal Navy's A Fleet arrived yesterday at the port of Colombo in Ceylon to join its Z Fleet in the Far East. Along with the arrival of the A-Flotilla, there was a British native infantry division, two Canadian divisions and a South African division. However, this part of the troops was not put into the Indian battlefield, and according to the analysis of various situations, the British government may change its strategy, first solve the colonies of Malaya, Brunei, Burma and other colonies, and then free up the hands and then clean up the mess of India and resume colonial rule in Southeast Asia. ”

After reading the telegram, An Yi smiled faintly: "Chamberlain is dizzy, in fact, it should have been like this a long time ago!" First fight the weak enemy, concentrate superior forces to quell the Indian rebels' rebellions in Burma, Malaya, and Brunei, which were brought in by Austria, and then take advantage of the advantages of weapons and equipment to squeeze the living space of the rebels, and the problem can be solved in three months at most. ”

Liu Qing asked, "How should we respond?" ”

An Yi waved his hand: "Do nothing." Anyway, the gold and silver we earned from the sale of arms have already arrived. During this period of time, the arms trade has almost emptied our reequipped weapons, and the money for the sale of A-series fighters and Y-I planes has already arrived. If they can persevere, we will continue to do business in the future, and if they have a large number of advanced weapons and are still vulnerable, we don't need to waste too much energy. We are just a normal arms trade, not a strategic alliance! ”

Liu Qing nodded, thinking deeply.

......

The city of Talda Kurgan.

"Boom-"

The B2 bombers, carrying four attack waves of 15-kilogram to 100-kilogram high-explosive bombs, used squadrons as units to bomb those valuable targets on the battlefield at will, and the Soviet artillery positions arranged on the edge of the urban area north of the city and had fallen into a sea of fire became the focus of the pursuit.

A large number of aerial bombs rained down on the Soviet army's proud artillery and howitzers, and the entire artillery position was plunged into a cloud of gunsmoke.

Finally, with a loud bang, the burning ammunition pile on the Soviet artillery position exploded violently, and the explosion of thousands of shells was earth-shattering, and the black smoke raised soared into the air, soaring hundreds of meters into the air.

"An Jiajun, forward!"

While the bombs were dropped by the Air Force, the offensive of the infantry of the Anjia Army on the ground did not relax. Encouraged by the bright red flags and the trumpet of the charge, they pounced on the enemy like a whirlwind of clouds.

As early as after the napalm was thrown into the Soviet trenches, the Soviet soldiers guarding the positions were stunned by the tragic situation in front of them and the roars of those burning men, and they were completely powerless to organize decent resistance! After dropping the bomb, the fighter planes quickly launched a dive in small formations and strafed the enemy moving on the ground - the distinction between friend and foe is obvious, the Soviet army in yellow military uniforms is the Anjia army, and the camouflage is the An Jiajun, and at a low altitude of one or two hundred meters, it is very simple to distinguish all this.

In the face of the ferocious attack of the An Jiajun and the dense rain of bullets from the air, the Soviet army, which had been beaten stupid by the bombing, ignored the warnings of the overseers composed of internal affairs troops, and desperately threw down their positions, turned around and retreated to the city. The internal affairs officers and soldiers of the Soviet army turned their heads to look at their commanders together, but they got a helpless wry smile, and then the overseers also joined the fleeing team.

The fighters in the air did not give up the attack because of the rout of the Soviet troops, and continued to dive and strafe them.

After the thwarted attack turned into a simple pursuit, the officers and men of An Jia, who were excitedly chasing after the footsteps of the Soviet army, ignored the burning flames and nightmarish screams lying on the ground, and kept charging forward, and soon crossed the trenches and rushed into the city of Talda Kurgan.

The defense line built by the Soviet army in the city was quickly dispersed by the rout, and as long as the B2 bombers saw that someone was gathering, they immediately rushed over with a string of aerial bombs, which blew up the Soviet army and howled wolf. The most terrible of these is napalm, because the B2 bombers carrying out this bombing mission are all fully loaded, and the fighters carrying gasoline bombs have a load of 10 bombs, and it is conceivable how much damage 200 napalm 200 fighters will bring to the Soviet army.

As soon as the fire dragon appeared, there would be terrible fire men in the streets and alleys, and the terrible wails were enough to break any will to resist, and the three divisions of the Soviet army guarding the city had no morale, and they had no choice but to flee or flee in their minds.

The Soviet commander fired several shots to no avail, and in desperation, he had to issue an order to retreat!

The front-line commanders of the Anjia Army were surprised to find that the Soviet troops who were desperately retreating to the south could not organize an effective attack under the continuous dive-dropping bombs and strafing of hundreds of fighters, and immediately issued an order to pursue. As a result, the battle that was supposed to be the end of the capture of the city of Talda Kurgan turned into a pursuit battle.

The Soviets were extremely miserable, racing not only against their pursuers, but also against fighters spraying bullets. Seeing that there was no way to escape, and at the same time knowing the good tradition of the An Jiajun not to kill prisoners, many tired and hungry Soviet officers and soldiers fell to their knees and raised their hands in fear as soon as their feet went limp.

The first wave of pursuing Anjia soldiers was almost blind to the surrendered Soviet troops, and the second and third waves of soldiers immediately divided their men, collected their weapons, drove the prisoners together, and escorted them to the city of Talda Kurgan in the rear. There, the remaining troops had already begun to set up a cauldron to make porridge.

Fear is the most pervasive thing on the battlefield, and when fear hangs over the Soviet soldiers, no matter how strong their wills are, they cannot be avoided.

"Da-da-"

When the Soviets retreated to Kokssu City, fifteen kilometers west of Talda Kurgan, they were preparing to build a defensive line, when another wave of aircraft suddenly arrived, this time the more powerful Q1 attack planes that had been in the air for a longer time. The high-powered guns and 12.7-caliber machine guns of the Q1 attack aircraft frantically strafed the Soviet troops on the ground who had stopped, and at the same time dropped strings of napalm and aerial bombs to bombard the fortifications and trenches on the ground.

On the Kazakh plateau, where there are no woods to cover, there is little concealment against bombing and strafing from the air. In addition, the anti-aircraft machine guns arranged on the anti-aircraft positions on the ground of the Soviet army could not penetrate the armor of the Q1 attack planes at all, so a large number of Soviet officers and soldiers could only allow the fighters flying around in the air to arbitrarily harvest their lives and break up any purposeful assembly.

When the frightened Burning Man reappeared, and the terrible roar rang out everywhere, the scene of collapse was played out again, and the mountains were full of Soviet soldiers who threw down their guns and ran desperately for their lives.

In the city of Koksu, when the officers and soldiers defending the city saw the Soviet soldiers who had thrown everything away and withdrawn from outside the city running to the rear at a speed of 100 meters, they quickly collapsed, threw down their positions, and rushed towards the south of the city, abandoning the city again.

When the pursuing Anjia Army vanguard rushed into the city of Koksu, all they saw was a mess of streets and a variety of weapons and equipment thrown all over the streets.

......

Receiving an urgent report from the front-line troops, Hu Jiyang is leading the corps headquarters into the city of Talda Kurgan.

On an eight-wheeled armored command vehicle parked on the side of the road, Hu Jiyang read the telegram and said with a smile: "If the Soviet army is really as afraid of napalm attacks as the telegram says, we might as well prepare more, and it will be much easier to fight in the future." ”

Chief of Staff Liu Yu shook his head: "Not necessarily!" The defeat of the Soviet army was caused by many reasons, the most important of which was the detachment from the masses and the loss of faith! It is not surprising that they carried out massacres in Almaty, and that they had been in rebellion for a long time, that their internal thinking was chaotic, that their belief in fighting for their ideals had been shaken, that they had suffered a long-term shortage of food, and that the army had no morale. Modern warfare is already a war of air and ground, and the Soviet army in Central Asia has lost air supremacy, but it is still blindly optimistic, and the balance of victory and defeat has unconsciously tilted in our favor, and the next thing to see is how to fight to reduce our own consumption. ”

Hu Jiyang said with a smile: "Mr. Hu and Mr. Ye must have a plan, we only need to be responsible for our journey!" We don't have to be in a hurry, fight step by step, now the Soviet army is seriously short of food, the more difficult their lives will be in the future, we will win this strategic decisive battle! ”
