362 Airships show the way, bombarding indiscriminately

In this kind of large-scale steel torrent at any cost, hundreds of tons of steel, oil, and food materials are consumed almost every moment. This chapter is provided by the website for online reading

It can be said that victory does not come from the front-line battlefield, but from the transportation capacity of the rear railway supply line between China and Russia, which directly determines the fate of victory or defeat on both sides. The 6 routes of transport in Siberia are very unfrequent, with permafrost and swamps, and only railways can achieve large-scale transportation.

There are only three routes to reach Siberian City from China.

First, it departs from Shenyang, Changchun, and Harbin, the capitals of the three eastern provinces of Yandi, passes through Manchuria, arrives at the "Ulan-Ude City" on the shore of Lake Baikal, and then crosses the Siberian Plain to arrive at the "Siberian City". The total length is 5500 km.

Second, from Tianjin and Jicheng in Yandi, arrive at Hohhot in Inner Mongolia, pass through Mongolia, arrive at the "Ulan-Ude City" on the shore of Lake Baikal, cross the Siberian Plain, and arrive at the "Siberian City". The total length is 5300 km.

Third, from Taiyuan, Xi'an, and Lanzhou in Zhao and Qin, through Jiayuguan and Urumqi, through the territory of neighboring Kazakhstan, and arrive at the "Siberian City". The total length is 5000 km.

The third of these routes is unsafe and requires passing through Kazakhstan. Not to mention that Kazakhstan is currently a neutral country, even if Kazakhstan players agree to build this railway, this railway line is completely exposed to the impact of the Russian tank armored army and will be easily destroyed and cut off.

Only the front two railway lines are very safe, hiding in the big rear of the city of Siberia, without fear of being attacked by Russian tank armored corps. If the Russian tank corps dares to cross the Siberian city and enter China's thousands of miles of rear to attack the railway line before taking the Siberian city, it will be looking for death. Without a safe supply of fuel, Russian tanks will break down halfway through. Without the help of the squadron, they will be finished on their own.

The first two railway lines both came from Yandi, which made Yandi's supply task very heavy.

The military supplies of Zhao and Qin could only be transported to Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, with the help of the railway line repaired by Yandi. Arriving at "Ulan-Ude" on the shores of Lake Baikal, it was possible to transport to the front.

Compared to the length of the railways built by Chinese players, the Russian railway lines are much shorter.

From the rear of Russia, "Chelyabinsk City" and "Yekaterinburg" are two heavy fortresses. Repair to the forefront of the "city of Omsk". Just about 1,000 kilometers away. It is less than one-fifth of the length of China's Trans-Siberian railway line. Even the Russian cities of St. Petersburg and Moscow are connected. The total length is barely about the same as that of the Siberian Railway in China.

Russian players are also much better at building railway sections. Natural conditions in Russia and Europe partially. Far better than Siberia.

The Chinese players are unusually difficult to repair the Siberian Railway. In addition to dense rivers, lakes and mountains, a vast area of permafrost. and the Baikal Mountains. It has become the greatest test.

On the railway. Russian players took advantage of a small advantage.

So even though China was almost the first country in Empire to build a railway. But the Trans-Siberian Railway has not yet been completed. The Russian player built a short section of the Trans-Siberian railway to the "city of Omsk", but it was completed first. And it's in operation.

Chinese players were still transporting armaments and supplies to Siberian City by truck. Russia has already begun to transport supplies to the city of Omsk by rail lines. Vehicles and trains. These two means of transport. The amount of oil and manpower consumed, as well as the amount of transportation and the degree of transportation. It is completely incomparable.

The amount of tanks, armor, fuel, food, and soldiers hoarded by Russian players in Omsk is somewhat larger than the amount of heavily armored armaments hoarded by Chinese players in Siberian City.

Qinglian took a look at the progress of the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway in China, which was reported on the report.

China's major railway lines have been built from Jicheng in Yandi and the three northeastern provinces to Ulan-Ude on Lake Baikal and to the area around the Yenisei River, with more than 4,000 kilometers completed. There are only about 1,000 kilometers left to the city of Siberia, and the distance is relatively flat. As long as she held on to the railway from the city of Siberia to Shuvan, she won a decisive victory. However, the Russian player's army is attacking like crazy and depleting its own armaments. to exhaust China's armament consumption. Whether or not we can withstand this violent onslaught is a big problem.

The Russian army temporarily has an advantage in material supply.

The only advantage that China has is its defensive advantage. Moreover, with the assistance of the air group army in the city, it can hit the opponent with minimal attrition.

It was already at ** o'clock in the evening of the first night after the start of the war, and the night in the city of Siberia was completely dark.

Thousands of miles of Siberia's great plains, there is silence.

Because it was too dark, they could not see at all from a distance of several tens of meters, the soldiers had no sense of direction, and tanks and armored vehicles could not aim at enemy targets for shooting. Long-range artillery attacks are very prone to accidental damage. Therefore, the Chinese and Russian tank corps have ceased fighting, more than ten miles apart, resting on their respective positions, waiting for the bloody battle to continue after dawn tomorrow.

Even airplanes can't see the pitch-black ground clearly, and the Russian tank positions are pitch black without any sparks, making it difficult to find accurate targets for bombing. After all, the bombing cluster was dispatched by thousands of planes, and it consumed a lot of fuel, and if you went out, you couldn't even find where the enemy was. That's a big joke.

But Qinglian didn't want to waste such a whole night in vain. It is necessary to attack by all means to weaken the forces of the enemy attack tomorrow. She immediately summoned a group of legion generals in the mansion. Discuss the night attack.

The generals looked embarrassed.

It's not that they don't want to fight, it's that they don't know how to fight. It's pitch black, and how to fight is a big problem. The Air Force also cannot see the ground, so it cannot play any auxiliary role. Is it possible to let the tank armored vehicle rush directly to the position of the Russian army and face each other at a distance of tens of meters? What if I get ambushed? They also don't know now whether the tank positions of the Russian army have changed.

But Qinglian's attitude is very resolute, and no matter what, she must attack at night. And ask the generals to come up with a feasible night attack plan.

"If you must fight, you must let there be flames on the enemy's position, and there will be flames on a large scale for tens of miles or hundreds of miles, not just a little bit. In this way, we can fight a big war on a large scale. ”

"What is the way to make the enemy positions open fire?"

The crux of the matter is fire.

One of the generals thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "You can send a few ground flying machines first." Find out where the main positions of the Russian tanks are, and throw thousands of incendiary bombs on the ground of their positions in batches as a guiding target. This can greatly increase the brightness of the field of view and expose the location of the Russian tanks. Then let the bomber group go out and aim at the target of the guide and carry out the cover bombing. ”

The crowd was excited.

That's a good idea.

After having a beginning. All the generals came up with ideas, and the rest became simpler.

Soon, a complete set of night raid plans came out. The city of Siberia not only has a group of fighters-1 and bombers-1, but also a flying machine - the airship "Loitering No. 1".

It's just that the airship flies too slowly than the J-1 and the bomb load of the bomb is less than that of the H-1, so it has no use for it throughout the day.

But now it's time to use an airship.

First, 300 airships were dispatched to explore the way ahead. The airship floats for a very long time, and it floats in the sky all night without the slightest problem, making it the best tool for pathfinding at night.

After the launch of three hundred airships from the city of Siberia. Turn on the lights on the airship, organize an air navigation route with "flashing" light in the sky, and one airship every five miles. It stretched to the front-line positions two hundred miles away.

This air navigation line gives pilots on night raid missions a sense of direction.

Forty airships were used to compose this airway alone.

Midnight. After the remaining more than 200 airships arrived at the front line, they began to search for the location of the main tank force of the Russian army on the vast plain. From time to time, they threw an incendiary bomb on the ground, which could illuminate the ground at least a hundred meters, and use binoculars to see if there were tanks on the ground, whether they were Chinese tanks or Russian tanks.

Chinese tanks. When they see their own airships, they are usually very calm, and even wave flags at the airships in the sky. If it is a Russian tank, it is usually very panicked and hides from the fire.

The airship is at a height of at least several kilometers and is not at all afraid of strafing from armored anti-aircraft machine guns of ground tanks.

Soon, the airships appeared on the plain with thousands of large-scale Russian tank groups, and after it was determined that it was the main position of the Russian tanks, the players on the airships began to get excited. Several of these players committed suicide and returned to Siberian City to report on the enemy.

The remaining airships began to "draw circles" on the Russian positions with incendiary bombs and "marked" the Russian tank positions.

The Russian players in the Russian tank position were very surprised, and they didn't know what these Chinese airships above their heads were trying to do when they ran out in the middle of the night. The commander of the Russian army of this tank corps was somewhat concerned and ordered the tank group to transfer positions.

However, thousands of tank positions, even if they want to move, it is not easy.

Moreover, their degrees. It's not as good as the flight of an airship. Wherever the tank group goes. The airship followed.

The airfield in Siberian City was also busy.

Fighter-1 swarm, bomber-1 swarm, moving. Soaring into the sky, along the air navigation route composed of airships, it flew to the Russian tank positions on the front line at great speed. An hour or two later, they flew over the Russian tank positions and bombed a huge Russian tank position that had already been marked by the airship. With the cooperation of airships, bombers, and fighters, they unexpectedly unexpectedly accurate and efficient air raids at night.

The Russian tank positions were covered by flames, countless tanks were blown up, NPC soldiers screamed, and the night sky of the entire Siberia was illuminated by hundreds of thousands of incendiary bombs and bomb explosions.

At the same time, the Chinese tank group, hidden in the night, carried out heavy shelling of the positions of Russian tanks.

The Russian tank army did not dare to attack the Chinese position, and was forced to urgently retreat for dozens of miles -- there were airships throwing incendiary bombs in the sky, and the Russian tanks were completely exposed to the flames, and they could not hide themselves at all, and they could easily become the moving targets of the Chinese tank groups lurking in the night. But Russian tanks could not aim at Chinese tanks in the dark. Only by constantly retreating can we get out of the threat from the sky and the 6 places.

The air raids and bombings lasted all night. The Russian Second Tank Army urgently retreated hundreds of miles overnight, leaving behind more than 2,000 destroyed and abandoned tanks and armored vehicles along the way.
