XVIII. Battlefield

The Tang State is the force where the Tang Army is located, and this kind of small country has more than eight hundred if not one thousand in the Chaos Star Region. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info could have been said to be very inconspicuous.

But fifteen years ago, Yang Siqi met Tang Jun, who was only sixteen years old at the time, by chance. Seeing that Tang Jun's cultivation qualifications were not bad, he used the Imperial Spirit Seal to control him, accepted him as a registered disciple, and kept him by his side to teach for eight years, and everything in Tang Jun changed.

Although this information was not made public in the Chaos Star Region, the high-level of the Tang State still knew that as the third son of the Tang King of the Tang State at that time, Tang Jun was only the heir of the third line, and he was able to get in touch with Yang Siqi, and he also obtained the benefits provided by Yang Siqi, and the high-level of the Tang State simply designated Tang Jun as the first heir, and after Tang Jun returned from school, he had inherited the throne as soon as possible.

Originally, there were only three planets in the Tang Kingdom, and this small force naturally did not have much military strength, and the total number of its warships was only five hundred, and the number of soldiers was only one million. However, with the support of Yang Siqi and a large number of Tianma Legion soldiers joining the Tang army, the military strength of the Tang State has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Of course, Yang Siqi is very relieved of Tang Jun, they have all been controlled by the Imperial Spirit Seal, can he still rest assured? As a result, a large number of support from the Sishi Galaxy entered the Tang Kingdom through secret channels, allowing the strength of the Tang Kingdom to be greatly enhanced in just one year.

After the Tang State became strong, it naturally began to attack the surrounding forces. Such attacks occur everywhere in the Chaos Star Zone, and they are extremely inconspicuous. As for the forces around the Tang Kingdom, they were only surprised by the strength of the Tang Kingdom, but they didn't know why the Tang Kingdom suddenly became stronger.

In the Chaos Star Zone, when it comes to the total number of military forces, it is definitely more than the sum of the two great powers, but when it comes to the performance of warships, it can only be said that it is far behind. There are advanced warships, but there are not many of them.

Small countries and small forces, if they want to invest a large amount of talent and material resources to research advanced warships, it can only be said to be a fool's dream, and it is not realistic at all, therefore, in the chaotic star region, except for a very few relatively powerful countries, other ordinary small forces do not even have a warship production line, and even, even the maintenance of warships is very reluctant. A country that is able to have a line of warships is already a very powerful country.

The warships of those countries can only be purchased from the five surrounding powers, as well as from those arms giants. Therefore, the Chaos Star Zone is also known as the battleship testing ground. Is it an excellent battleship, you can get data from the chaotic star sector.

Therefore, the sudden appearance of two new advanced warships in the Tang Kingdom is not at all strange to the people in the Chaos Star Zone, who will only think that the Tang Kingdom has been favored by a certain arms company and has become a test country for new warships. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the Chaos Star Sector, as long as those arms companies are not public, no one else can say anything.

With a large number of new warships, coupled with the well-trained Pegasus Legion, the Tang State could naturally be said to be sweeping against the surrounding forces. In just four months, it has already occupied thirty-one planets, and it has become a medium power.

In this way, under the auspices of the Tang Army and with the strong support of Yang Siqi, the Tang State has been embarking on the path of steady expansion, and a large number of new weapons have been invested in the Tang Army, which have withstood the test of actual combat and also supported the expansion of the Tang State.

Up to now, seven years have passed, and the number of planets owned by the Tang Kingdom has reached one hundred and ninety-six, which can be regarded as a relatively powerful force in the surrounding area. Compared to the old powerful forces in the Chaos Star Zone, it is far inferior, but it can be regarded as a dominant party.

And occupy a large number of planets, as well as a considerable number of mining stars, the production of various raw materials is naturally more, and this large number of raw materials can naturally be used to produce more warships and weapons. It's a virtuous circle. Tang still pursued a relatively low-key policy, and did not want to be attacked by a large number of forces in the Chaos Star Region, so a considerable part of his strength was deeply hidden.

Outsiders only know that the Tang State has 15,000 warships, the number of soldiers is as high as more than 45 million, and the total strength has exceeded 200 million with the garrison. In fact, the military strength of the Tang State is several times that of this number.

Among the 15,000 warships of the Tang Kingdom, there are 5,000 main warships and 10,000 warships of various types, organized into four fleets, of which the strongest main force is, of course, the Tang Forbidden Army, in addition to the 6,000 warships of the Tang Forbidden Army, the other first, second and third fleets each have 3,000 warships.

The Third Fleet of the Tang Army has three divisions and a regiment directly under the fleet. There were three more regiments under the division. The unit that Ma Ling entered was the main battleship of the Iron Cavalry in the third company of the 77th Battalion of the 26th Regiment of the 9th Division of the 3rd Fleet of the Tang Dynasty, and became one of the mecha soldiers.

In fact, Datang nominally has three fleets, but according to the establishment of the five major powers, only 15,000 warships is not enough to have more warships in one fleet organized by the five major powers. And the Golden Spirit Empire has a fleet of up to forty, so the forces of the Chaos Star Region are really not comparable to the five major powers.

The Iron Knight, the latest type of main battleship produced by the Sishi Galaxy, belongs to the Black Armor class in terms of rank. With a total length of more than 1,560 meters, it is a very huge guy, equipped with 16 main guns, 77 secondary guns, 300 double-barreled anti-aircraft cannons, 500 mechas, and 4,739 soldiers. The captain of the ship has the rank of lieutenant colonel.

The strongest attack power of the main gun of the Black Armor class battleship has reached the seventh level of the god rank, which is equivalent to the level of the fifth level of the star rank, its equipment is very heavy, and the energy neutralization magnetic field is also very strong, so it can be said that in the isolated island river system, its defense power is quite strong. It is also very fast, and can also be used as an assault battleship. On the whole, it is a multi-functional warship, and in terms of comprehensive performance, it is better than the main equipment currently used by the five major powers.

"It's so vulnerable." The commander of the 77th Battalion sighed. In just half an hour, the defense fleet of the scorching Mars in front of him has been completely sunk, and the rest is to capture the planet.

Attacking planets is not an easy task. In fact, attacking planets can be divided into two categories. The first type is a destructive attack, that is, no matter what is on the ground, and no matter what civilians on the planet are killed or injured, using the space fleet, a round of artillery bombardment will naturally be able to destroy most of the resistance on the planet's surface. Naturally, there is no technical content in such an attack, but there is not much benefit to be gained. After all, all the factories on the ground and everything like that you have destroyed, what else is left?

The second type is the opposite, if you want to capture the entire planet as completely as possible, without causing too much damage to the planet, and after the capture, you can still make good use of it, then, you need to send a large number of ground troops, first airborne, and then destroy the enemy's ground garrison, so as to achieve the purpose of occupation.

The former way is usually only found in the midst of never-ending wars. After all, if the firepower of the fleet is swept from space, civilians will inevitably have a large number of casualties, even if they have facilities such as bomb shelters. After the occupation, it was very difficult to recover from the destruction of a large number of facilities and the destruction of a large number of houses. Therefore, unless the two countries are fighting to the death, this method will not be adopted under normal circumstances.

At the end of the day, wars are fought about money, and conquering a planet in its entirety can yield a great deal of wealth, and conquering civilians can create a lot of wealth. If it is a destructive occupation, not only will it not be able to obtain a lot of wealth in a short period of time, but it will also have to be reversed. Therefore, it is difficult to make it difficult, and if the casualties are larger, the casualties will be larger, and it is more common to use the second method to capture them.

"Attention ships, start destroying the enemy's surface anti-aircraft fire points first." The battalion commander gave the order.

The battalion's auxiliary warships began to move to the perigee of Mars and began to fire their main guns, destroying some of the anti-aircraft artillery positions on the ground.

The air defense positions on the ground, although they also have energy-neutralizing magnetic fields as defense, are unable to withstand the strike of a powerful space fleet. With several rounds of artillery fire, the anti-aircraft positions on the ground were already dumb.

"The target has been confirmed, and all the enemy's air defense positions have been destroyed." The warships used the ship's surveillance system to assess the destruction of the enemy's positions and were convinced that the enemy's air defense positions had been destroyed.

"All departments activated the all-satellite monitoring system, ordered the landing force, first made a feint, lured out the enemy's anti-aircraft fire point, and the space force destroyed it."

A planet must have hidden air defense positions, so it is necessary to send a feint attack force to lure out the enemy's hidden anti-aircraft fire, and then destroy it, and finally carry out the whole army airborne to fight a ground battle with the enemy.

Dozens of warships released a batch of landing craft and began to land. There are no soldiers inside these landing craft, they are just bait.

Sure enough, the enemy army was fooled. In fact, this is a conspiracy because you don't know how many enemy landing troops are in this landing craft.

A large number of hidden anti-aircraft positions have emerged, missile launches one after another, and anti-aircraft cannons have been spraying beams into the sky incessantly, and it is imperative to destroy all these landing craft.

Hundreds of landing craft faced the anti-aircraft fire on the ground, and there was not much resistance at all, naturally most of them were destroyed, but the losses were negligible for the Tang Army.

"Attention to the warships, destroy the enemy's anti-aircraft fire, pay attention to the enemy's mobile anti-aircraft fire." As long as it's exposed, don't try to escape. The next moment, a large amount of aerial artillery fire fell, destroying all these newly exposed anti-aircraft fire.

"Sure enough, among the space battleships, if there is no air supremacy, it is equivalent to losing the war." Ma Ling, no, it was Yang Siqi who said with a sigh. Yes, no matter how strong the anti-aircraft firepower on the ground is, in the face of the space fleet that can only be beaten, the anti-aircraft firepower on the ground will naturally only be slaughtered.

"The best way to defend against attacks from space is a combination of fleet and ground anti-aircraft firepower, both of which are indispensable. Unless it is a generational gap in technology, the anti-aircraft fire on the ground alone will not be able to stop the attack from space. "Sure enough, the battlefield is the best teacher.

"The main warships will send mecha troops to carry out the landing and open a channel for the follow-up landing force." With the order of the battalion commander. The 30 main battleships of the battalion all opened the mecha ejection bays, and one after another the mechs were ejected and landed on the ground.

Mecha, an extremely important individual equipment in the isolated island river system, is also the strongest individual equipment, with a one-person pilot, and can fight in various environments such as space, planetary surface, and ground, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

It can be said that the technology of the mecha is not inferior to the technology of the battleship, and the technological civilization of the galaxy class is good, and the mecha is also a powerful and indispensable technology. A mech, quite capable of destroying an infantry regiment without heavy firepower. That's the power of technology.

Nine thousand mechs fell from the sky. The anti-aircraft firepower on the scorching Mars has been completely destroyed, and only a few mobile anti-aircraft firepower remain, which cannot stop the airborne landing of the mecha at all. To deal with the flexible mechs, there are only mecha troops.

This kind of monster that is seven meters tall and weighs hundreds of tons, coupled with the powerful firepower it is equipped with, is simply not something that human flesh and blood can resist (of course, monsters like Yang Siqi are exceptions). The best weapon against mechs is mechs. As a result, the mecha troops on the scorching Mars also began to dispatch.
