Chapter 528: The Art of War
Including Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka, all eyes were on Zhang Sixing.
Zhang Sixing, who was smoking a cigarette, shook his head, and then spewed smoke like a hell demon king,
"You have to remember that we are operating at night, and there are ordinary civilians in the cottage. I'm going to tell you a word to describe this pattern of warfare, and I call it the War on Terror. ”
"War on Terror"
Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka repeated Zhang's definition and looked at each other, all the while their minds were thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of several plans in the face of this situation.
It is clear that the problem with Hansen's plan was navigation, how to guide the airship to the correct bombing position at night and carry out the bombing. Second, his way of fighting obviously cannot avoid civilian casualties.
Anyway, it's a civilian in Huaxia, and that German guy shouldn't have thought about it at all.
While Tetsujiro Yamaoka was thinking about it, he was also evaluating his planned country in his heart. From the perspective of the Japanese Army, the plan was also very risky.
After all, climbing from a cliff, especially at night without protection, may cause many soldiers to fall off the cliff by mistake. For the Japanese Army, such casualties were completely bearable for the sake of victory.
Including the other staff officers, everyone looked at Zhang Sixing, who seemed to be confident.
"It's all up to me what I do, these things are what you staff officers should do. Think more about our equipment, and then think about the training of the soldiers, and the fighting style is basically determined. ”
It's easy to determine, except that Zhang Sixing took them to determine first. Sprinkled with paprika on the delta wings and then ambushed outside the plan of the nearby reconnaissance battalion to attack, Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka's plan was clearly flawed in one way or another.
But to get them to formulate a plan that is in line with what the paratrooper school has already trained, those special soldier staff officers, Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka find it very difficult.
"You are staff officers, and your brains must be diligent. Therefore, you don't have to worry about the specific plan of this operation, but everyone has to plan accordingly according to the information they have. ”
Then Zhang Sixing, who didn't say anything more, left the war room, and Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka, as adjutant and orderly, followed him behind his ass, happy to avoid mental work.
Looking at the backs of the three of them leaving, a helpless voice in the staff officer said,
"The chief must already have a plan, otherwise he would have easily come up with another plan. We, I think all of us are still based on the training of the paratrooper school, and we have to think about it more. ”
No matter what the staff officers in the war room who were arranged by Zhang Sixing to "do their homework" thought, Hansen asked anxiously as soon as he went out,
"Sir, what about you, what else do you have planned?"
Glancing at Tetsujiro Yamaoka, who was following him, his eyes were as curious as Hansen's, and he seemed to want to know his plan. Zhang Sixing smiled at this and said,
"My plan was revised according to your and Yamaoka Tetsujiro's plan, let's talk about Yamaoka's plan first. The downside of his plan was the danger of the soldiers climbing the cliffs, and the fact that it took so long that they could easily be noticed by the bandits, and thus easily lost their efforts. ”
Listening to Zhang Sixing's analysis, both Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka showed a look of admiration. They all knew that Yamaoka's plan seemed wrong, but they really didn't think about how to solve the problems in the plan.
"Hey, my lord, you're right, but how can this problem be solved?"
"Simple, since it's not easy to climb at night, then we climb during the day. The airship is easy for bandits to spot, so it must enter the mountains with a very low flight attitude. ”
Hearing this arrangement, Hansen's mind immediately conjured up the image of a huge airship moving slowly through the mountains.
It would be too dangerous, and if a crosswind blows, our airship would crash into the mountains. Hansen, who was coming to this conclusion based on the picture in his mind, casually asked,
"Ultra-low altitude, can we do it?"
"Of course we can't, so we don't use airships, we can only use delta wings to transport the troops that are assaulting from the top of the mountain. Then wait until night, sprinkle paprika and attack the bandits from top to bottom on the mountains behind. ”
Hansen and Tetsujiro Yamaoka glanced at each other, and they both felt that compared with Tetsujiro Yamaoka's original plan, this plan was obviously much more reliable. After all, it's much easier to climb the cliffs during the day than at night. In addition, the delta wing can turn off the engine when it is close and glide over.
If possible, the delta wing can even send people to the top of the mountain, provided of course that they cannot be detected by bandits, depending on the height of the scene.
"Sir, what about my plan?"
With great curiosity, Hansen wanted to hear Zhang Sixing revise his battle plan, which did not have much technical content.
Zhang Sixing shook his head gently, but he still opened his mouth,
"Compared to Yamaoka's plan, your plan is too Western, and lacks the art of war."
This comment dimmed Hansen's curious gaze, but then Zhang Sixing's words made his eyes brighten again,
"But your plan will definitely succeed, but it will hurt civilians a little more."
Yes, the shortcoming of Hansen's bombing plan at this time, since it is a war on terror, then it is necessary to distinguish between bandits and civilians when it comes to extermination.
"But sir, how do you change that?"
As if intent to embarrass Zhang Sixing, Hansen continued to ask,
"It's a simple thing, Hansen...... Hansen, you have such a smart mind, promise me not to treat him as an ornament, okay? ”
In response to Zhang Sixing's ridicule, Hansen wanted to scratch his head and expressed his embarrassment. But when he stretched out his hand, he found that he was fully armed at the moment, and he couldn't scratch his head at all.
After thinking about it behind Zhang Sixing for a long time, Han Lin didn't know the essentials, and looked at Yamaoka Tetsujiro who seemed to want him to wake up or something. But the latter was also at a loss, and obviously didn't think of what to do.
It wasn't until he arrived at the airport where the airship was parked that Hansen said suspiciously,
"Sir, you won't and haven't thought of a good solution."
To his suspicion, Tetsujiro Yamaoka glared. He is a self-proclaimed retainer of Zhang Sixing, and he still understands the so-called "lord humiliates the minister to death".
Reaching out and patting Tetsujiro Yamaoka on the shoulder, Zhang Sixing replied with a smile,
"Actually, it's not difficult at all, it's good to enter the market in the evening, but we don't bomb. Remember, our paratroopers are the sons and daughters of the common people, so the biggest mistake in your plan is bombing. ”
Hearing Zhang Sixing say this, Hansen had nothing to say. In fact, in his plan, it doesn't matter whether there is a bombing or not. After all, the bandits did not have gas masks, so they had to sprinkle chili powder in the evening, and then the soldiers could be airborne.
As for how the airship will be airborne, hehe, that's another question.
