Chapter 1527: Bad Consequences
A day of fierce war, finally at nightfall, the curtain came to an end, a day, the total number of casualties on both sides exceeded 1.5 million, the vast majority of which were dead, very few wounded, this, even on the Bordeaux front, even in the meat grinder-like European battlefield, are extremely rare, but it happened, on the one hand, the emergence of tanks, did change the course of the war, the Entente came up with a bigger hand, a one-time investment of 20,000 tanks, which was extremely rare before World War II, Even in World War II, Germany's steel torrent was outflanked in a roundabout way, and the number of tanks used was not as large, and the tank was on the right path from the first day of its birth, and it was applied in clusters on a large scale.

The correct method also made Germany suffer a big loss when it was fully prepared, when the number reached a certain level, it was enough to change everything, this is still the Entente is too anxious, if it really takes out 50,000 vehicles and breaks through in a dense area, even if Germany can kill 30,000 or 40,000 vehicles, but the remaining 10,000 or 20,000 vehicles are enough to change the situation on the battlefield.
In the face of war, there is no if, the well-prepared strategy of the Entente was solved by a weapon from China, with the current financial situation of Germany, there is no problem with taking out the money to buy this weapon, relatively speaking, the Entente is miserable, when the offensive and defensive war of the day is finally over, the final result in front of the Entente is yes, heavy losses, personnel or something, still second, the key is money.
20,000 tanks, according to the price of 43,000 US dollars for a tank, this does not count the transportation costs, the cost of going to war, and the pension of personnel, for tanks, as long as they are killed, most of the members are either dead or seriously injured, and the basic cost of tanks is 860 million US dollars, 120,000 well-trained soldiers, plus follow-up artillery fire, personnel losses, today, the Entente lost a total of more than 1.3 million, far above imagination.
In contrast, the final results were minimal, causing less than 200,000 casualties to Germany, and not even occupying any of the German fronts. Not only were the elite troops lost in the charge, but the artillery on the front line was also defeated in the offensive and defensive battle with the German artillery, and the artillery with a caliber of more than 100 mm lost more than 3,000 guns, and the artillery losses were not a few.
Ordinary soldiers, in the armies of all countries in the world, are basically a consumable, easy to come, as long as they are strong men of the right age, they can basically go out of the division in 3 months, and they can come in handy if they take 6 months to strengthen training, but tankers, artillerymen, these professional personnel, can not be put to use in a few months, it seems that the tanks of the Entente countries only took a few months to go to the battlefield, but 120,000 soldiers, most of them are relatively good machine gunners, drivers, This saves time, otherwise, it is impossible to enter the sequence of tankmen in complete ignorance, without a year and a half, and want to go out of the division.
Heavy losses of personnel, more losses of equipment, but these are not as great as the loss of the heart, a carefully prepared attack by the British, just like this, it took several months, spent a huge amount of experience and manpower and material resources, not only did not produce any effect, but the loss of troops and generals, the loss was beyond imagination.
First of all, someone needs to pay the price, located in Europe, the chairman of the Joint Conference of the Coalition directly stepped down, he was the first to take responsibility, but this storm did not stop at all, the officers on the front line, after submitting the detailed combat records, the entire Entente was in an uproar, Germany's actions were quite suspicious, in the Allied tank forces, when the offensive was started, Germany did not react at all, and even when 20,000 tanks entered the area of less than 300 meters, they did not have any panicked actions, As if quietly waiting for the tank to enter, and then at about 250 meters, a counterattack began, which weapon was definitely developed in advance to deal with the tank, which not only caused most of the tank to be destroyed, but also caused huge losses to the Entente.
So, why does Germany know which link has a problem and which link has leaked, in the middle, not only Britain is self-examining, but also the United States is self-examining, Britain is the place where tanks are assembled on a large scale, and the United States is where most of the parts of tanks are produced.
Large-scale counter-espionage operations were carried out in the United States and the United Kingdom, and they actually missed the biggest reason, but they did not expect that China was in a large number of engine imports, found a problem, not any leakage, this huge investment, full of strategic significance of the project, Britain and the United States also attached great importance to it, the pervasive German spies did not find the clues of this action, but China's Yang Yuanzhao, with the support of history, under the analysis of a large amount of intelligence, finally found the clues, It was deduced from the middle that Britain was engaged in tank intelligence, and then by the way, sold the first-generation rocket launcher that China had just developed at a good price.
350,000 bazookas, more than 1.5 million rockets, finally sold for a large price, not only recovering all the research investment, a large amount of money, but also supporting the development of rocket research in a higher direction.
Rockets, fluid mechanics, rocket mechanics, and even the earth force field, these are closely related to missiles, and launch vehicles are closely related to the project, in the future China's research plan, and the original (sub) bomb is a level, the former is a big killer, the latter is a carrier weapon, only complementary to each other can produce results, and the power of missiles directly changed the world's military system, whether it is the army, the air force, or the navy, missiles have basically replaced artillery and torpedoes, becoming the most threatening weapons.
On the one hand, China has carried out preliminary research in the field of rockets and other fields, and has achieved considerable results; second, as long as it is a missile, it cannot do without guidance, and the key to guidance lies in chips and radios, and China is a well-deserved pioneer in these two fields.
It's just that these technologies span too much, at present, far beyond the current level of science and technology, not a short period of time can be effective, even with Yang Yuanzhao's cheating guidance and all-in-one machine, there is no 10 years, even the most basic things, don't want to take it out.
Of course, just like the German V1V2 missile, forget it, their error is extremely large, and there is almost no need to consider accuracy when flying out, just a direction, some similar to the kind of ceremonial rockets in ancient China, in the early days, China's rocket research, will make a few, to try it, a deeper understanding of the flight of rockets, but large-scale hunting, it is almost impossible.
In the battle of Bordeaux on this day, the Chinese gained a lot of money, whether it was tens of thousands of engines in exchange for almost 300 million US dollars, or the funds obtained from the sale of rockets, this part of the profits, basically put into the corresponding research institute, China is very rich, but under a thousand things, especially in the case of all aspects need to invest, a single research project, the difficulty of obtaining funds is also increasing, now hundreds of millions of additional funds, engine and rocket projects, can be imagined, Although funding is not the best way to advance research, but without funds, the corresponding projects will not develop rapidly, and money can solve many problems.
On the German side, although it also suffered huge losses, even including some non-commissioned officers and officers, but it depends on who it compares with, compared with the losses of the Entente, the losses on the German side are also acceptable, only 100,000 people, compared with the other side, only one-tenth, the Entente countries, which suffered heavy losses, were suddenly blinded, and almost all of the high hopes of the British side were directly shot to death, and contradictions on the side of the Entente also burst out.
The United States fully supports Britain in fighting in Europe, and then on the premise of gaining an advantage, it will return to the Americas to meet the challenge of Japan, but now, the tanks not only have no effect, but also suffered huge losses, especially the follow-up tanks, which cost $1.3 billion, have actually become a chicken rib-like thing, useless, but really used, the other party's rocket artillery is not vegetarianIn case of loss, it will really be over, it can be said unceremoniously that the 30,000 sets of tanks left in the UK that have not yet been assembled are basically useless and wasted in vain.
When the counter-espionage still had a clue, there was a huge quarrel between Britain and the United States, and the Americans, who had become irritable because the Japanese had taken the back road, once again put forward a demand for the withdrawal of troops, and at this time France also intervened, and a large number of losses occurred in several years, and the war was all on French soil, and France was already on the premise of collapse, and there was such a large-scale defeat, and the French army even had the idea of withdrawing from the war.
If the United States withdraws, France withdraws, and the United Kingdom, which is independent in Europe, can it still resist Germany's toughness, or withdraw from it, stick to the British Isles, and even develop in Canada, but in this way, it is tantamount to giving Europe to Germany, not only Belgium, but most of France's land can not be taken back, once these resources are integrated, to what extent will Germany be strong, that is the catastrophe, even if it is Britain that retreats to Canada, there is no hope of rising, Not to mention that Japan has now run to Alaska, and then it will really be a pot of porridge.
