Li Xiao looked at the telegram sent from the French front, and his heart was full of helplessness.

There are still gate lord forces in the army, and this gate lord force has affected the combat of the troops.

In fact, Li Xiao is not opposed to the children of the gate valve forces getting ahead.

Because these people, usually with a good military education, sometimes play a mainstay role in the army.

It's like Zu Kuan, Zu Chengxun, and Cao Bianjiao have now become the backbone of the army.

This time, they were responsible for encircling and suppressing the Prussian army, and they were the main force.

Ao Ye, Man Ye and himself are more planning the overall strategic situation, and they are the ones who specifically command the troops.

But the wealthy family has a big business, and it is inevitable that there will be a stumbling existence.

When these gentlemen enter the army, they are irresponsible for the lives of soldiers.

It's like this Chen Mosa, a gentleman, how can He De be the head of a ship?

Thinking that the arsenal ship was easy to operate, it was arranged in the arsenal ship.

As a result, two arsenal ships and three destroyers were lost under the First World War.

Nearly 1,000 sailors were killed, a major accident rarely seen since the founding of the Imperial Navy.

"Marshal, the navy has naval difficulties in this battle.

With such a lost force, it has to involve the entire Mediterranean coast of France, and it has to attack the city all the way to defend the key points.

According to reliable intelligence, the general mobilization capacity of France can reach three million people.

But now, there are only a million French troops on the Russian front.

Where are the remaining million people, not staying at home, in case the navy messes them up in the Mediterranean.

In this battle, for example, only one Marine Division was used.

It is hard to gain a foothold on the outskirts of Marseille, where the landing site is just over twenty kilometres from the centre of Marseille.

With a few 155 guns, it can be bombarded into the city of Marseille.

In three days, it withstood the siege of tens of thousands of French troops. His own casualties were only more than 2,000, but no less than 20,000 French soldiers were killed and wounded.

With a tenfold exchange ratio, this is already a very impressive record.

Sir, I don't think we can be too harsh on the Navy, they really did their best. ”

Stilwell's stance is generally more neutral, he is a meritocratic guy, as long as he has a good record, he can cover up all the ugliness.

This may be a common problem in the bones of the officials who have been mixed up with Nanming, as long as the battle is won, hello and me, everyone will celebrate the New Year, so it doesn't matter if you make mistakes in employing people, or you are corrupt and bribery.

There are many people in officialdom who have this kind of view.

Logically speaking, they are all very consistent with the black cat and white cat conclusion.

No matter what you do, it's a good cat to catch a mouse anyway.

Li Xiao once thought about opposing it, but the resistance was too great.

Not for the sake of the way out for future generations, who is fucking addicted to being an official.

In this year, it is not nonsense for a person to ascend to heaven.

Everyone works hard to recommend their children and nephews, just like Zhang Huangyan, there are many people who want to recommend their grandchildren.

Even now, some people are thinking about stuffing their daughters into Li Lin's bed.

Don't they understand that even if they are stuffed into Li Lin's bed, without Li Xiao's approval, this daughter-in-law will not be able to pass the door?

"The Navy has its naval difficulties, and everyone knows that.

But if you think about it, so many years have passed. The army tightened its belts, and there were only four field divisions.

The total number of troops in the whole country is less than 900,000!

Where did all the military spending go?

If you look at the ships of the navy, the tonnage, the technical indicators, and the training and treatment of officers and men, which ones are not the best in the world.

Do you calculate the navy of the whole world, and there is a country whose navy can surpass them?

Took so much money and built so many warships.

Even, there are aircraft carriers.

Is this record still worth showing off?

Isn't there a shame that there is such a big mistake?

Don't think that if you win a battle, you can cover up all the ugliness.

Can't cover it up!

The butt is exposed, and it makes people see the joke. Li Xiao roared like a tiger.

Steve Stewell didn't dare to speak, it was the first time he had seen Li Xiao lose his temper with the troops.

"Telegraph to the navy, let them deal with this matter seriously! After a while, I went to inspect the Navy in the Mediterranean. ”

Li Xiao had a cold face, let Li Xiu deal with it first, and he had to open the lid himself.

"No!"

Stilwell hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"Marshal, aerial reconnaissance shows that reinforcements from Smolensk last night have reached the Safonov region.

It is only a dozen kilometers away from our sniper position.

Isn't it......! ”

Stilwell hurriedly reported the battle report on the Northern Front, thinking about diverting the topic.

"How many troops have come out!"

"There are about five divisions, and the number is about 60,000.

The entire march stretched for almost twenty kilometers. ”

"Sixty thousand, so little!" Li Xiao was a little unsatisfied.

For such a big battle, 60,000 people were transferred out.

"I'm afraid the Prussians will rush over, good fellows, more than a million people!

More than 60,000 people are good, and it doesn't take much effort to eat.

Together with the enemy troops in the Vyazma encirclement, there were also more than 100,000 people.

If we eat too much at once, we will lose a lot.

Eat more than 100,000 Prussians, we will not lose much, and we will be able to rest for more than half a month, and then carry out the defense of Moscow. ”

"It's done! Anyway, that's all, let Ao Ye also attack.

Damn it! Carrying such a big knife, he finally killed a chicken. ”

"...... in the Vyazma Encirclement!"

"Didn't you bring in the latest thermite?

If it is not tested on the battlefield, can it be said that it is still tested on the training ground?

Tonight, let's all go to the front.

Let's see, how powerful this thermite is. ”

Li Xiao waved his hand, with an unstoppable momentum.

"Thermite, that's more than 40 tons."

"Throw them all over and bake them!

Get something new out too, and don't throw chlorine bombs around.

If one doesn't get it right, even his own people will be smoked to death. ”

Li Xiao is now starting to admit that the chlorine bomb is too unstable. With the wind drifting everywhere, if the wind direction changes, it will be bad luck!

Napoleon is a tragic example!

If it weren't for the poison gas he released, it's hard to say what the outcome of the Battle of Tsaritsyn would have been.

At that time, both sides had actually reached their limits.

Night!

Li Xiao flew to Cao Bianjiao's armored division in an airship!

Just tonight, Ao Ye and Man Ye will launch a pincer offensive from the north and south flanks at the same time.

More than 100,000 elite armored troops will grind 60,000 Prussian infantry into pulp.

But when he arrived at Cao Bianjiao's headquarters, Li Xiao saw two guys holding wine jugs.

"Tonight's general attack, you two are not here, who is in command?" Li Xiao looked at Ao Ye and Man Ye in a daze!

He never expected that these two old guys would actually come to Cao Bianjiao's headquarters.

According to the pre-plan, their troops have now begun to attack.

"Let the lads do their work!

Do you still expect us two old bones to survive you? Ao Ye took a sip of wine nonchalantly.

The strong smell of alcohol can be smelled from afar.

Stilwell immediately turned his face away, and it was forbidden to drink alcohol during wartime, which was a military order issued by him.

However, it was clear that he could not punish the two old guys in front of him.

If others dare to talk to Li Xiao like this, they will soon become a corpse.

"Zu Kuan and Heiyun Long are both generals' blanks.

They can't always fly under our wings, they have to let them beat and beat themselves, and if they don't beat, the young eagle will never become an eagle. ”

The Mongols are not good at this, people are always associated with animals.

The most used are eagles, wolves and foxes also account for a large proportion.

"All to see thermite?" Li Xiao was surprised that the news leaked so quickly.

"I heard that something new has been made, and Master Man and I want to see it too. It's all said to be amazing, let's take a look at what kind of powerful method it is. ”

"The things that this kid has come up with are not much good, and the efficiency of killing people is higher than the other."

The people around listened to it, that is, these two masters, if another person talked to the handsome like this, they were now corpses.

Li Xiao was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he didn't command the troops to encircle and annihilate the Prussians, but came here to see how to cast thermite.

Feelings, Lao Tzu, this is a fireworks show?

But there is no way, when people come, they will come, Li Xiao really has no tricks with these two.

In fact, Li Xiao also knew that they were dissatisfied with the number of Prussians who came out to receive the troops.

With only 60,000 people, how can they withstand the rampage of more than 100,000 armored troops.

By tomorrow morning, the 60,000 people should not be there.

The opponent is too poor, which also causes the two masters to be not very interested.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the rumbling of artillery could already be heard in the distance.

That's Zu Kuan and Black Cloud Dragon doing it!

Presumably now, the marching ranks of the Prussians are being ravaged by tanks and armored vehicles.

The scene of tanks chasing the infantry all over the ground is boring to think about.

"The Air Force has bombed it, so let's get started." Li Xiao looked at the watch on his wrist, eight o'clock!

"No!"

Since these three masters entered the headquarters, Cao Bianjiao has become a herald.

The rocket artillery positions have long been prepared and are waiting for launch.

This time, a full forty tons of thermite were delivered from the rear. Even if it's a rocket launcher, it takes two rounds to fire.

The air force didn't let Li Xiao wait too long, and at 8:05 the sky resounded with the huge roar of bombers.

Because it was dark, I could only hear the "buzz" and "buzz" sounds, but I couldn't see where the plane was.

You can only roughly judge the direction of the plane by sound.

Hearing the sound of the bombers, the ground artillery immediately fired several incendiary bombs inside the encirclement.

The incendiary bomb with white phosphorus was added to the soil and waited for a long time to burn.

It will not be extinguished until the white phosphorus is burned out.

With incendiary bombs to guide the target, the bombers began to drop bombs.

Bombs in the shape of ships were dropped, each weighing five hundred kilograms.

Not a single bomb that falls on the ground causes a skyrocketing fire.

The fire dragon spread inside the Vyazma encirclement, burning everywhere, fire everywhere.

More than 20 kilometers away, Li Xiao saw fire dragons scurrying around in the telescope, devouring Prussian soldiers like ants.

"Let's get started!" After napalm, it's time to look at these thermite.

"No!" Cao Bianjiao shook the phone over, and the rocket artillery position over there immediately made a terrifying sound.

With the sound of the air tearing, one rocket after another flew towards the Prussian positions in the encirclement with a whistling.

Bazooka is actually very suitable for throwing thermite into such a thing.

In less than thirty seconds, more than twenty tons of ammunition can be fired.

Li Xiao, Ao Ye, Man Ye, and Shi Weiwei all raised their binoculars, wanting to see the powerful and incomparable new weapons boasted by the Jinzhou Research Institute.

On the horizon, there were flashes of light.

Soon, these bright lights were connected, like the rising sun.

No, this thing is a hundred times brighter than the rising sun.

The intense white light blinded the eyes and made it almost impossible to see, and even from twenty kilometers away, one could feel the hot wind blowing from Vyazma.

At this time, there was no artillery fire in the Vyazma encirclement.

Because it's been a sea of fire!

Everywhere it was burning, and the flames engulfed almost everything.

Soon, the second salvo of rockets began.

This is already a waste of ammunition, but no one in the room stopped it.

Because, everyone was shocked, including Li Xiao, who was fully mentally prepared.

The second round of rockets exploded in the sea of fire with the roar of ghosts.

The sound was not loud, and the people inside the underground bunker could not hear it at all.

But you can see the great light!

No one can look squarely at the encirclement of Vyazma with a radius of more than ten kilometers!

Li Xiao quietly took out his sunglasses and put them on!

"Just you kid chicken thief!"

Before Li Xiao could see it, his eyes were snatched by Ao Ye.

The sunglasses hadn't left Li Xiao's face yet, and another big hand had also arrived.

"Click!" The poor sunglasses were halved by the destruction of the two old handsomes.

Then the two, one of them holding a piece of lens, looked into the encirclement like a one-eyed dragon.

At a distance of 20 kilometers, no telescope can see a ghost!

Li Xiao pouted helplessly and blocked his face with his hand.

Twenty kilometers away, you can feel the heat inside the encirclement.

That's a full forty tons of thermite, plus fifteen tons of napalm!

As for the dozen or so incendiary shells fired by the ground artillery, they were completely negligible.

"Fuck me, this thing is so fierce. Tanks can't stand it! ”

"Humph! Inside the tank, you have to bake the whole person. ”

"The manual says that the high temperature can be released instantly, and it can reach 2,500 degrees.

Really smashed on the tank, so that the tank turned into molten iron. ”

Li Xiao snorted angrily at these two old bastards holding sunglasses and lenses and pretending to be one-eyed dragons.

A good pair of sunglasses, just let them ruin it.

"This thing is really amazing, and we'll get some some." Ao Ye casually stuffed the lens back into Li Xiao's hand.

"You can't favor one over the other, I want it too!" Another pair of sunglasses and lenses also returned to Li Xiao's hands.

Li Xiao was speechless!

It's all made you two lenses, what else do you need?

"I think this thing, it's still the same as napalm, and it's more appropriate to give priority to equipping the Air Force."

As soon as Stilwell spoke, he saw four murderous eyes glaring at him.
