670 Preparation for war - military exercises Ask for subscriptions Ask for votes

The sound of the car rumbled... And it's a sound of a connected high-powered internal combustion engine roaring at the same time, and it feels so earth-shattering and unstoppable. Behind this sound is the most powerful armored combat unit in the world right now. They are the First Armored Division of the National Revolution!

Three years after the formation of the Light Armored Division by the National Revolutionary Army, the real armored division finally came into being. When they appear on the battlefield of the future Soviet Union, they will completely dominate the entire war!

When Luo Yaoguo stood on top of a high mound, with a full staff and staff and moral advisers,

The military representative of O Lan and the others watched as the steel tiger under their command showed their full power. But there is a feeling of hard work in my heart. A country with such a weak industrial base, a country that should have been on the verge of extinction in history, is now able to produce such powerful modern weapons...... Although these tanks are produced and manufactured by Sino-German or Sino-American joint venture companies.

Now such a divisional combat force, powered entirely by internal combustion engines, is located on the field that extends out from beneath the mound. The armored forces were completely out in formation. The 22-ton Type 2A vehicles formed a conical assault formation in the front center, and these vehicles used the Christie suspension system to have a high traffic capacity, and the 350-horsepower MAN diesel engine allowed them to travel at 45 kilometers per hour on the road and close to 25 kilometers per hour off-road. The main armament of the new tank is a 75 mm infantry gun. On their flanks were groups of light chariots No. 1, and these small tanks of more than ten tons were still the main armament of the armored corps of the National Revolution. After all, the No. 2 tank has just stepped off the assembly line, and only dozens of them have been trial-produced, and their Xing energy has yet to be tested, and their quality is also very unstable, far from meeting the requirements of a large number of equipment troops. In addition to deterring the six northern provinces, the main task of this "Han Kuang-1" military exercise is to test a number of new weapons, including the No. 2 tank.

These mechanized weapons of tanks, armored vehicles, self-propelled guns, etc., are actually some fragile and consumable consumables. To really put them into a protracted war, it is simply not feasible without a certain yield! Such an armored division of 20,000 people, 370 old No. 1 tanks and the latest No. 2 tanks, 222 GM1932 tracked armored vehicles, more than 1,000 various transport and reconnaissance vehicles, and 126 various self-propelled guns. According to the estimates of the General Staff, in order for them to show their real power in future wars, at least 800 tanks and armored vehicles of various types are needed per year to maintain the strong combat effectiveness of the armored divisions in the cruel attrition of the war.

In the future, the armored forces of the National Revolutionary Army will include five such armored divisions, which means that the production of tanks and armored vehicles will reach at least 4,000 units per year! If all infantry divisions are to be equipped with a certain number of tanks and armored vehicles, it will take at least six or seven thousand units to maintain their production capacity. In addition, there is a need for much larger truck production and an adequate supply of fuel. Without the support of a huge automobile industry and petrochemical industry, China would not be able to maintain a strong mechanized force. Although the current [China] countries already have such a powerful armored force, they do not yet have an industrial base that allows them to really exert their power!

And now Luo Yaoguo knows that he has six years left at most, so that the country's industrial level can barely reach the level of being able to fight a mechanized war. To prepare for a world war in just six years, it is clear that there is no time left for a civil war, so military exercises to deter opponents and force them to make concessions is the best option.

Although there was only one armored division participating in today's armored assault live-fire exercise, the momentum of nearly 2,000 vehicles of various types launching an assault at the same time still made people feel that the heavens and the earth were trembling! The front they attacked was a World War I-standard defense-in-depth system carefully built by engineers. Hundreds of artillery pieces were already barrage in front of the armored assault troops.

More than 200 A2A light dive bombers were hung with five 25-kilogram high-explosive bombs, and they were guided by signal flares and radio signals fired by armored units again and again.

This mode of air-ground joint operations has now tended to be perfected after years of continuous exploration. In the future, it will also become the main mode of land warfare.

After the shelling and bombardment, the tracks of tanks and armored vehicles ran over barbed wire and ran over trenches. The 75-millimeter infantry guns and the 20-millimeter machine guns were all roaring and firing, and the roar between the heavens and the earth had become one. There are quite a few tanks in this

o The bell was thrown during the charge, but most of the tanks continued to charge in depth after crushing the first line. Behind them were the 18th Infantry Division and the 21st Infantry Division, which had been jointly trained, and groups of infantry marched in different directions according to the plan that had been drawn up1, and soon took over the trenches that had been beaten to pieces. As the red flares representing victory kept rising, this textbook drill training looked like a good result! The armoured strength of the National Revolution seems to have risen to a new level.

The smell of gunpowder smoke was permeated with the exercise ground, and even the small hillside where Luo Yaoguo was located could smell a choking smell, which made the Chinese and German officers watching the battle feel like they were on the front line. The look on everyone's face was unusually excited, and some people were still panting, as if they had really boarded the tank and led thousands of troops to Moscow! An Sihua stood beside Luo Yaoguo, holding the telescope in his hand and never put it down, every detail of the entire exercise seemed to be under his eyes, and he was still muttering to himself: "Not bad...... The second tank is still ideal, and it looks like it will be ready for the next war......... If only there was a bigger, stronger, and more powerful Tank III to pair it with. Plus more advanced dive bombers and horizontal bombers,........., but also Sino-German

o The three countries can also have a good cooperation with an army of 8 million, 15,000 tanks and 10,000 aircraft, and attack the Soviet Union from east to west...... It should be possible to completely destroy the country in a short period of time! And then there were the British and French...... And then there may be the United States! It should be all beatable. ”

Hearing An Sihua say that he wanted to fight the United States, Luo Yaoguo glanced at General An next to him with undisguised uneasy eyes, of course he knew that this General An was the trump card in his hand, and he was also the only person who could confront Zhukov, Rokossovsky, Vasilevsky and other famous commanders of the Soviet Union on the front line in the future war of exterminating the Soviet Union. However, the strategic vision of the second prince seems to be far inferior to his tactical literacy and battlefield sense.

In Luo Yaoguo's mind, the real ideal post-war situation is that China, the United States, and Germany stand side by side, rather than the confrontation between China and Germany or China and the United States. This is because with the strength of China, there is absolutely no way to confront the United States or Germany, which dominates Europe, after the war.

Only when China, the United States and Germany stage a "Three Kingdoms" can China win a period of stable development. His current mind should not only consider how to win the world war and maximize the interests of China, but also take into account the layout of the world after the war, so that after winning the war, China can truly enjoy the fruits of victory with peace of mind. Sometimes I feel like I'm thinking too much at once, but I have to think about all of this. He knows what he wants, and he has no doubt that he will be able to achieve this goal in the end: first, restore the international status of China in history, establish a new order in the oriental world with China as the core, and build a world empire belonging to China!

As the armored assault drill ended, the hillside resounded with the sound of humming commentary.

At this time, dozens of Junkers J52s

The 3M transport plane slowly flew from the sky in a neat formation. Everyone's attention was attracted by these ugly planes with three engines.

At this time, a large number of colorful small huā suddenly appeared in the blue sky, and this small huā slowly fluttered in the sky, elegant and beautiful.

The officers on the hillside looked stupidly at the little huā in the sky, of course they knew what those were, but at this moment they were still stunned. Even this paratrooper unit was formed and trained in complete secrecy, and except for a few high-ranking members of the General Staff and the War Department, no one else knew that such a unit existed, nor did they know about this kind of attack from the sky.

Luo Yaoguo pointed to the parachutes that were slowly descending on the hillside and said with a smile: "This is falling from the sky, and he has really become a heavenly soldier!" There was a chorus of approving laughter.

There is also a lot of envy mixed with it. The Airborne Forces are still a completely new branch of the armed forces, and at present only the Soviet Union has secretly established this branch of the armed forces in the world. However, the outside world did not know, so everyone here included the German advisers who watched the exercise

Everyone including the military representatives of O Lan thought that this paratrooper regiment that fell from the sky was the first airborne force in the world.

The colorful little huā in the sky quickly flew down to the ground, and in a short time they landed in the clearing around the hillside. A jeep designed and produced by Ford China Company drove quickly towards the paratrooper landing site, and several figures jumped into the car and drove quickly towards the hillside where Luo Yaoguo was located. These people are the three chief officers and several staff members of this airborne force: Lieutenant General Sun Liren, commander of the Airborne Forces, Major General Huang Hui, commander of the Airborne Brigade, and Colonel Ren Tianmin, chief of staff.

The three chief officers quickly came to Luo Yaoguo's face, and it seemed that this airborne operation was very successful, and the three of them had smiles on their faces that could not be concealed. snapped and saluted to Luo Yaoguo, Bai Chongxi, An Sihua and other senior officials: "Report to the high assistant marshal!" The airborne drill of the first regiment of the first airborne brigade has been completed, please advise the assistant commander and all of you to comment on the instructions! ”

Luo Yaoguo beckoned to Sun Liren: "Fumin, you did a good job, in such a short time, you can pull up the shelf of the airborne troops and bring out a paratrooper regiment." But this is not enough for our final requirements, and your airborne troops will have to take on the most difficult mission in the future war. Therefore, the Airborne Forces Command must make persistent efforts, not only to expand the scale of the Airborne Forces and strengthen the training of the Airborne Forces, but also to explore new methods of operation for the Airborne Forces and to develop new types of lightweight heavy weapons suitable for the operations of the Airborne Forces. Fumin, in the future, the General Staff may have to use your airborne troops in formulating several important battle plans, so you should also participate. Also, if you Airborne Forces have any special requirements for weapons and equipment, you can ask them to the General Staff. The Ministry of Armaments will also fully cooperate. Hearing these words, a trace of excitement flashed on Sun Liren's face.

He certainly knew that the "war of the future" meant the battle for the death of the Soviet Union! In such an offensive operation, which is expected to involve 8 million people, his small airborne unit actually has to take on the most difficult mission! Just imagining what this most difficult mission is is exciting......... Could it be to be airborne in Moscow and capture Stalin alive!?

The Soviet Far East, Vladivostok fortress.

Although it is already the hottest time of summer, the coastal region of the Far East of the Soviet Union, located at high latitudes, is the most pleasant time of the year. When the obese Aso Taiemon got off the ship, he felt a little cold even though he was already wearing a tweed coat. On the dock, there were already a few Japanese officers and a good-looking mixed-race beauty with a slightly depressed face waiting for him. Those officers are all middle- and lower-level officers of the military advisory group in Vladivostok, and that beauty is of course Miss Isa Nagata, and now she is the commercial representative of the Lingnan Porcelain Industry Company in Vladivostok! He was responsible for the development of sodium mines in the Kolyma Mountains of the Soviet Union in cooperation with Japanese businessmen.

And the "Hichimoto businessman" who cooperated with her was Aso Taiemon, that is, the eldest son of Aso Taiyoshi, the president of the "Hichimoto Carboniferous Iron Industry Association", and the heir of the wealthy Aso family in Kyushu. By the way, in another time and space, Taro Aso, who once served as the prime minister of Himoto, is a descendant of the Aso family and the nephew of Aso Taiemon, but he has not yet been born.

The Aso family is a mining giant in Japan, with operations in Japan, North Korea, and the northeast of China. Of course, all the business in Tohoku has been completely lost at the moment, and in the old war, the Aso family is also one of the most loss-making "Japan". So now the Aso family has to do more hurtful things to make up for the loss!

Just when Aso's father and son were pondering where there was a hurtful deal to do, Nagata Tetsuyama, deputy director of the Army Staff Headquarters in Japan, actually came to the door and introduced their family to an opportunity to operate a sodium mine in the Soviet Union! After going through the periodic table of chemical elements several times and finally figuring out what sodium was, Aso Yoshita decisively decided to participate in this big deal, and sent his eldest son to the war-torn fortress of Vladivostok.

At present, the fierce siege and defense of the fortress of Vladivostok was at its peak, and about 500,000 Soviet Red Army troops set up battle formations to the north of the first fortress in the Far East, and they also brought siege committee artillery from Europe to bombard the perimeter of the fortress.

Amid the rumbling artillery fire in the distance, the port of Vladivostok was a tense and busy atmosphere. Cargo ships from Japan or China are docked at various berths. Shirtless North Korean coolies and Chinese laborers are busy unloading their goods. The entire marina area has been urgently expanded. The Sappers of the Trotskyist Red Army built a temporary railway for transport and built a large number of warehouses and barracks in the open space near the wharf. However, the heavy pressure on shipping still weighed down the port of Vladivostok. A large number of ammunition "medicine", grain, canned food, compressed dry food, military uniforms, gun parts, gun oil, feed, "medicine" products, cannons... All sorts of imaginable supplies were unloaded from the ship like a stream of water. It was roughly counted by the Trotskyist Red Army logistics officer, who had already boiled his eyes red, and then transported it into the warehouse. These supplies were not only to be used for the ongoing battles, but also to prepare in advance for the fighting life of the entire Trotskyist Red Army and the city of Vladivostok after the port of Vladivostok was frozen.

And the main ones who paid for this huge Soviet civil war were the "Japanese" capital, which had not yet recovered from the losses of the old war...... Of course, the order for materials needed to maintain a war also seems to have injected a shot in the arm into the depressed Japanese economy. They used the iron ore, coal, pots, grain and other materials they had received from China to process these military supplies, which were continuously transported to Vladivostok. However, those things that came from the rest of the country also need to be returned...... And the ones used to pay off the debts were the gold mines in the Kolyma Mountains and the small green stones called sodium.

"Miss Isha, do you know what sodium is for?" As soon as he got into a Ford car, Aso Taiemon couldn't wait to ask Isa Nagata beside him about the secret of sodium.

Of course, the Japanese elite like Aso would not really believe that the Chinese were going to use sodium to coat the surface ...............of porcelain, and the current transportation capacity was so tight that the Chinese still forced the Japanese to send 100,000 Korean laborers to Magadan Oblast in Eastern Siberia within the year. Moreover, they also sent an entire army of Trotskyist Red Army composed of Chinese nationals to Magadan Oblast to replace the Russian Trotskyist Red Army there! Obviously, in the eyes of those Chinese people, the deserted Magadan Oblast is more valuable than the first fortress in the Far East! No! The valuable ones should be these green sè stones that I don't know what to do with them.!.
