For the Tang Dynasty and Western European Front, they are facing a big trouble. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the war of the Ukrainian Front of the fraternal troops was easy, and the Tang Army beat the Russians so much that they did not recognize their parents on the Great Plains of Ukraine. Tsar Alexander I constantly asked for help from Western European countries, and although the Russian army was not small, it went wrong in military strategy at the beginning, and a large number of troops were sprinkled on hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land. The extremely fast advance of the Tang Army, coupled with air superiority, made it very easy for the Ukrainian Front of the Don Army to break through the Russian army and occupy Kyiv.

But the Tang Army's Western European Front was very troublesome, it was attacked on both sides, and both were enemies with relatively strong military strength, even if the Tang Army had an advantage, it was also afraid of attrition. The geographical two-sided attack was also another problem, which also tested the Tang army. Compared with dealing with the Germans on the Eastern Front, the Tang Army still had natural rivers as a geographical advantage, and against the French on the Western Front, the Tang Dynasty could only rely on the defensive line it had built.

The French army originally planned to cooperate with the German army, but the French army did not assemble as fast as the German army, and after the outbreak of the war, there were various packages, so it dragged on for more than a week. After the French army was ready, they launched an attack with the German army, but they did not expect that the French army was almost ready, and the Tang army drove the German army to the other side of the Rhine.

The French army has already gathered three divisions of first-line troops near the Belgian border, and more troops are being assembled on the second line and even in depth.

Liu Sanhui put the main force of about 80,000 people on the Western European Front to deal with the Germans on the eastern front, and the western front actually only had about 40,000 people stationed on the defensive line, that is, Belgium is a small country and the width of the defense line is short, otherwise the Tang Army would not be able to fill this defense line at all.

The French slowly pushed their troops forward, but the French did not push far before they were attacked by the Tang army's attack aircraft. The strength of the Datang Air Force in Belgium has also begun to operate at full capacity, and basically an aviation brigade has to take off for combat two or three times a day, and even fly in different directions. Air power is the key to the Tang Army's ability to preserve its superiority, and it is precisely because of the effectiveness of the Tang Army's air raids that it is difficult for the French and German forces to make progress, and it also ensures the safety of the Belgian and Dutch military base groups.

The Datang Air Force attack aircraft has also gone through two generations of development like fighters, and the first to equip the troops after entering the jet age is the Qiang-5 swept wing attack aircraft, which has a high similarity with the Qiang-5 in the other plane, but the disadvantage is that the flight performance is average, and the bomb load is slightly lower.

The second-generation fighter is a straight-wing fighter with a turbofan engine, which is basically a model made of A-10 Warthog, and the model is the Qiang-7. In fact, the service of the J-7 is still somewhat controversial, although it has a large bomb load, it is suitable for various ground attack tasks, whether it is anti-armor, close fire support, battlefield interdiction, it is competent. However, the Datang Air Force has developed too fast, and guided weapons have long been introduced, and the development trend of guided weapons is to launch outside the theater to ensure the absolute safety of the carrier aircraft platform. And the low-altitude strike of the attack aircraft, although it can also launch guided weapons, but in terms of cost, it is not as advantageous as the bomber.

The survivability of a platform such as the J-7 is definitely lower than that of a bomber using an out-of-theater strike weapon. Some people think that the Qiang-7 is not what the Datang Air Force needs, and the Datang Air Force can even directly equip more Flying Leopards, the two fighters have similar bomb loads, while the Flying Leopards have stronger flight performance, can also conduct air combat, and have better multi-purpose capabilities.

However, in the end, it was the strong attack machine faction that won, and the J-7 won more than 500 orders. In fact, the Datang Air Force continues to use the strong attack aircraft platform, mainly because the performance of multi-role fighters at this stage is not perfect. If the next generation of Datang develops fighters similar to the F-16, J-16, and Rafale, it is estimated that there will be no strong attack aircraft. The Datang Air Force itself has a large number of attack aviation units, which were originally equipped from dive bombers. The equipment of the J-7 can be regarded as retaining these strike aviation units.

The sky of the battlefield is dominated by the Datang Air Force, and the Qiang-7 will not encounter any enemies at all, at most some air defense weapons on the ground. The 48 planes of the two strike aviation regiments dropped hundreds of tons of ammunition on the French army, especially the troops pushed forward by the French army were also mainly combat vehicles and tanks, and the main task was to be anti-armor attack aircraft, and the anti-armor missiles launched by the J-7 hit and destroyed the French tanks one after another.

The 30mm cannon in the nose of the J-7 also has strong anti-armor capabilities, and it passed through the French tank formation like a plow, and many French armored combat vehicles were destroyed.

The strike of the Datang Air Force attack aircraft made the advance of the French army unable to progress. They had to carry out covert or maneuver to reduce the losses of air strikes. Tanks and combat vehicles are precious for any European country, France has been saving more than 6,000 tanks for many years, and not all of the M1 type, those foreign trade monkey tanks imported from Datang are also in service. At this time, many of the tanks destroyed by the Qiang-7 were exported to France by Datang at the beginning, and there were also tanks designed by Datang that France was authorized to produce itself.

After being attacked by an air raid, it naturally shrank a little, and the coherence of the attack was gone. The French army, after losing Napoleon, did not seem to have performed particularly well, and although the French army was growing in size during this period, its overall performance was not satisfactory.

If the German army were replaced, after being bombed by the Tang Army at this intensity, it might be able to continue to rush forward, but the French army would not. Of course, continuing to charge may be a worse option, because the army that is attenuated and disrupted by the attack form is more likely to be destroyed by the ground forces of the Don army.

After the French army stopped attacking, the Tang army moved again, and under air supremacy, the self-propelled artillery units of the Tang army, under the cover of other mechanized infantry, advanced to several preset positions and launched artillery bombardment on the French army. This shelling had a total of six self-propelled artillery battalions of the Don Army and dozens of guns, but it brought considerable losses to the French army.

This is because the Tang artillery has heavenly eyes to be able to observe for them, and choose the target that is most likely to produce results, plus the self-propelled artillery of the Tang Army's generation has made the attack on the enemy better because of the increase in fire control and power. The rate of fire of each self-propelled gun is several times higher than that of its counterparts in European countries, which means that the number of shells that can be output at the same time is much higher.

Within half an hour, more than 6,000 shells swept through the French army, which could not stand at all, and not only did not move forward, but withdrew to the starting point of the dispatch. (To be continued.) )
