Chapter 60 Chapter 2.17 The river bank overflowing with gunpowder smoke

In addition to nuclear bombing, what can destroy tanks with high efficiency?
Is it a ground attack aircraft?No, that thing is designed to bully guerrillas without regular anti-aircraft firepower. Its firepower for hovering strikes on the ground is very fierce, but the air defense forces of major countries can easily deal with this kind of aircraft with a fixed trajectory.In the future, the Suzaku ground attack aircraft in Shenzhou will be equipped with shield technology, but this is the case. The impact formation deployed by the ground armor group is an average of 200 meters in a horizontal row of tanks, and the destruction efficiency of pure attack aircraft is limited.

Is it an individual missile?Missiles do have the ability to destroy tanks, but these two-legged infantrymen carry such a single-shot firepower, and their movement speed is flawed.Even if Shenzhou has developed a single-soldier mecha now, it will not improve much. In regular warfare, the maneuvering brought about by the rotation of the crawler can completely kill the infantry who are relatively stationary.And if the infantry is in a vehicle, it is actually a confrontation between the vehicle and the vehicle. The front row must have units that can resist and anti-armor!

To deal with tanks, the most effective way is to open the tanks in formation, and the armor-piercing bullets stab the steel shells against each other!

……

On October 2198, 10, Qin Tongli, on the high ground outside the Ilie River Valley, Wei Keng's corps faced the Soviet armored group and started a tank battle.

From the perspective of the total strength, the strength of the two sides is very different, but this is the area where the hillside is blocked by the river, and the intersection area is very narrow, less than [-] kilometers.

The tanks of the two sides marched in the direction that the Irie River turned from west to north, salute each other with armor-piercing projectiles.

Within two hours, the Soviet Panzer Army was attacked head-on in the area and learned a cunning tactic.

They found that Shenzhou's defenders here successfully deployed tanks in artificial bunkers. These bunkers were sometimes just mounds, but for Shenzhou's reversing experts, these barriers could just stop the attack of the torrent of Su Iron and Steel.

And the Soviet armored forces encountered such things as anti-tank piles on the road!

This half-meter-high anti-tank stake is not to make the tank impossible to drive.

But when the Su tank rushes straight up, the chassis lift will light up to the front.

At this moment, it was immediately locked by the sky-eye whistle in the sky, and passed it to the Shenzhou chariot team with a very high degree of informatization. Immediately, a high-speed tungsten steel armor-piercing projectile was sent to the Su armored vehicle.

And if you want to go around, it will expose the weaker side armor.The chariot driver seemed to have divine help again, seized this moment and opened fire.

During the tank battle on the morning of the 4th.

In the end, the Soviet army declared the attack a failure at the painful cost of losing 345 tanks.The Shenzhou side lost 32 tanks and achieved an absolute victory tactically.

At night, the infantry on the Shenzhou side launched an attack under the cover of artillery, dragging 87 tanks that were still repairable to the tugboats on the Ille River, and then transported them to the rear.

During the next week of repairs, these Soviet-made tanks were repaired, and some civilian electronic devices (tablets) were placed on the internal frame, and their cameras and identification programs were used for preliminary informatization.

……

On the 5th, the Soviet army was obviously more prepared, using double-edged helicopters and bandicoot bombers to coordinate air-to-ground.

However, such electronic coordinated operations became chaotic just after entering the battlefield. The electronic warfare phantom-breaking fighters transformed by the three Phoenix fighters made dozens of times more targets appear in the radar detection of the Soviet Army.

Afterwards, Wei Keng showed them what cooperative operations were. The Baihu heavy artillery was towed by a cement boat, and after being fixed on the beach of Irie River, the heavy bombardment began.

This shell is still the traditional high-velocity immersion round.

The Shenzhou military's new-generation warhead is a plasma cluster beam energy weapon wrapped by a nano-layer, which is being developed in the Shanghai-Suzhou United Industrial Group.They may have completed the research and development, but there is no plan to install the Saibei Corps. The reason for this?Who is Wei Keng's Luoshui Group and the eastern Zhangjin Group have a bad relationship?

But Luoshui also has unique skills. Wei Keng's father started the Luoshui Group with electronic technology.And Wei Keng used network channels to revitalize a large number of low-end electronic industries, so some electronic products with simple structures can be made very cheap, such as terminal sensitive bombs.

After the curved trajectory fell, the high-speed projectile scanned the ground and exploded again, turning into a high-speed metal projectile that penetrated the armor of the Soviet-made chariot from top to bottom.A large number of flames erupted on the ground, and only those chariots with the power of the Iron Curtain were not destroyed.

After the 5th, because Wei Keng properly defended the area, the Soviet Air Force had no chance.Although the Su double-blade gunship swept across the river many times and destroyed many barges, the missiles on the barge also made the double-blade, spin, spin, float freely, slam hard landing, and turn into smoke and burning in the river valley heap.

In the Irie River Valley, the main stage of the war is still the fight between artillery and armor.

After the failure of the five-day war, the Soviet army staff realized that it was unrealistic to rely on the heavy equipment to forcefully penetrate in. This complex and long passage in the Irie Valley can always pinch off the iron rods that the Soviet army stretched into. .

But give up on this?How unwilling are the top Soviet commanders!

The goal of the Soviet army in this battle was to completely destroy all the resistance forces of Shenzhou in the Central Asian outposts, and to sweep the Shenzhou military camp in the Tianshan area.

Now, with great difficulty, through tactics, the main combat force of Shenzhou in the Western Regions was pulled out of the house and rushed to Tianzhu in the south.But now I have encountered a goalkeeper like Wei Keng.It is when I eat to touch the sand, and when I drink water, I see insects.

……

But now the Su Heavy Equipment Group has no choice. During this time, the Ministry of War of Shenzhou has successfully transferred troops to block the intersection on the north side of Shenzhou. The Wei Keng Light Armored Fighting Vehicle Sentinel who arrived here first. Members have handed over vehicles and defensive positions to friendly forces in situ.

And Maozi did not know that these troops under Wei Keng then went south at a very fast speed, merged with a group of supporting tanks and heavy equipment, and rushed to the Ile River Valley.

[Maozi's old proverb: When encountering difficulties, the iron bar will sweep away!The difficulty is doubled, and the iron bar is bold! 】

After October 10th, the Soviet Army entered the downstream area of ​​the Yibo Sea from the Ile River, and quickly bypassed a group of lightly armed troops. The army consumed few materials. After entering the area, it was barely able to maintain operations within a month. Supply, immediately after the transfer, attack Wei Keng's regiment from the northeast.At the same time, it also launched an attack in the south of the Irie River, trying to destroy Wei Keng's blocking troops with a north-south attack.

But the offensive didn't work.The participation of Su Qing Armor on the northern front was all under Wei Keng's calculations.

Combat armor such as Scythe and Reaper, which rely on magnetoelectric memory metal to form tension muscles, have excellent performance in terrain crossing, and can even rely on the rocket at the bottom to perform leapfrog combat across 30-meter obstacles.Often more than a dozen of these mechas can seize the high ground.

However, on the mountain defense system of the northern line, Wei Keng carried out exploration before the war. During the war, the engineering team temporarily widened the road with blasting, allowing the captured Rhino main battle tanks and Kirin tanks to drive directly to the ridge.A car is a mountain, and there are no opportunities to open it.

The Soviet light armored units were shattered one by one by the tanks on the top of the mountain, and Wei Keng's soldiers retreated from the ridge after one shot, and then followed the road behind the ridge and continued to probe and shoot at another place. It really made the commander in the northeast direction of Maobear angry and smashed the vodka bottle.

On the 12th, Wei Keng still firmly held many key positions in front of the Irie River Valley, like a stubby vise that was constantly grinding, slightly protruding and holding the main force of the Soviet army, and occasionally "twisting" it to let Su. The torrent of steel can't get in, and it's reluctant to retreat!

Wei Keng is not a person who makes good news indiscriminately.Because Mr. Wei's mentality has always been: "Anything that's not safe, you always have to take care of it."

But the Ministry of War had already reported the battle ahead of time.In the major newspapers in Shenjing, all the reports about the annihilation of the armored forces prepared by several divisions of the enemy country in the North Seri came out, and even, ah, the photos recorded in the battlefield of Wei Keng, the wreckage of those Soviet-made tanks all over the scene on the west bank of the Irie River , was also placed in the headlines.As for Wei Keng's military rank, he was directly changed to lieutenant general.When you are ready to come back, you will be directly promoted to the general soldier.

This is real "martial arts", not something that can be obtained by spending money on the back door of the military department.

The gang in the Western Regions sent their swords to the front, that is, they were seeking promotion for this battle. They were all from the famous military academy in Shenjing, and they boasted that they had real talents and practical learning.At the end of the day, it was ironic that Wei Keng, an outsider, got it.

This military exploits and military career promotion.At present, it is not Wei Keng's main consideration.Now Wei Keng is thinking anxiously: End the war!

……

So when the Ministry of War on the Shenjing side held a video conference again.

The supervisor of the country praised: "General Wei Keng, I hope to make persistent efforts to shine in the annals of history."

Wei Keng was very calm, and proposed his own strategic thinking now!
Wei Keng: "May I ask what our strategic plan is next?" The head of the Ministry of War: "General Wei, we are carrying out a comprehensive counterattack plan."

Wei Keng: "That's to tell the truth. From the current battle situation, I can last for a month at most. After a month, if there is no action in other strategic directions to put full pressure on the Red Palace, I will be defeated."

When the situation was getting better, Wei Keng suddenly said that he was defeated, which made the Ministry of War feel that Wei Keng was a bit of a downfall!

Wei Keng: "Masters, I joined the army halfway, and my views on war are different from the mainstream in the army. Now I dare to submit it. I hope that there will be more and more seas in the madness."

The supervisor of the country was very optimistic about Wei Keng, and motioned for Wei Keng to continue.

Wei Keng: "Sun Tzu's Art of War: 'Soldiers are a major event for a country! Life and death must be observed.' A war is a collision of national power. To win, you need to mobilize the power of the whole country. Just like now, the conflict in Saibei is partial, but it has already opened. I am the long-term beacon of the future of northern China.

I was able to hold on for a month because the Rakshasa people are currently mobilized by our army, but if the time is extended and the Rakshasa people are further mobilized, the battle our army has encountered is just one of the conflicts between the two countries. Just a little splash! "

The minister of the Ministry of Housing, who was listening on the sidelines, said strangely: "Are you saying that now you are supporting the frontier alone?"

Wei Keng: "I support it alone, or with my colleagues, it doesn't matter. Soldiers, the big event of the country! Compared with that, we are all small. What matters is my China's attitude towards this war."

The layman who was listening in wanted to refute, but Lord Supervisor turned his head and said coldly, "I want to hear what General Wei has to say."

Wei Keng: "My Shenzhou should use war to promote peace. In Mobei and the Xing'anling area, dispatch good generals to attack the whole line with light troops."

"Arrogant, Wei Keng, you are arrogant! If there is a large-scale war between China and Rakshasa! The power of our country will be greatly damaged, and the other wolves and leopards will benefit!" The members of the Xu Dang found an opportunity to launch an attack .

Wei Keng remained calm: "War should be avoided between Shenzhou and Rakshasa, the two sides do not have the conditions for a large-scale war, and the long borderline has lost a tacit understanding of security, which is a disaster for us, and the same for the other side. Since the princes of the Ministry of War are very clear, then the Rakshasa will also be clear."

"You are playing with fire and setting yourself on fire!" a minister rebuked.

Wei Keng's tone was also a little annoyed, and he refuted: "Isn't it playing with fire before? Military affairs are like fire, everything depends on attitude. If you light a match carelessly, even if the flame is small, it is still playing with fire. The goal is clear. , acting prudently and applying strict behavioral boundaries is fire control."

Wei Keng gritted his teeth in his heart: "Previously, you central officials thought that the Western Regions were far away and had nothing to fear. Now you really want to solve the problem, but you are like a longevity turtle in Nanshan."

[However, Wei Keng didn't realize that expressing his emotions so easily would be a big taboo in the officialdom in China. 】

Wei Keng opened up the specific proposal of the northern strategy on the electronic video, that is, lightly armed forces intercept the fragile traffic nodes in the vast northern territory of Su, and give deterrence!Don't attack big cities, don't confront the main Soviet troops, and even try to avoid local defenses and break diplomatic relations.

China should have a clear attitude and make full-scale combat preparations to force the Soviet side to the negotiating table.

……

After 10 minutes, the talks on the Shenjing side came to an end.From the way Jian Guo looked at him, Wei Keng also realized that his military career might have reached its peak.

If a warrior has a unique idea for a national policy, and he expresses it upright, then even if the content of what he said is correct, it will be shelved by the courtiers!Wu Anjun started in vain, and this is how he ended up.

However, Wei Keng is not afraid!
Wei Keng said roguely: "I didn't want to be a general in China. As a middle-aged person, I have no general talent."

Wei Keng connected his superpower network information system and looked at the big data information in the west.

At this time, all the investments of Luoshui Group in the Western Regions stopped falling and started rising!When Wei Keng went straight off the stage, he succeeded, thus proving that even the most risky soldier could not affect Luoshui's investment.

What?The liquidation of temples after the war.Shenzhou's current superstructure, even if the powerful officials in the court refrigerated Wei Keng, it is absolutely impossible to suppress the rise of the new power on Luoshui's side.

The reason for the cold storage is that the courtiers of Shenzhou are unwilling to give Wei Keng more qualifications in the military position, but if they want to suppress Luoshui, they are forcing a rebellion!
In terms of material allocation, Luoshui combined with Wei Keng's current military ability, and could resist several Soviet armored divisions externally, so internally, this was a huge bargaining chip.

A single general is easy to suppress, and a single order can make him leave the camp.And the rebellious behavior of a single business family can also be suppressed.But the combination of the two has also completed a tacit understanding and cooperation in the war, so it must be prudent!

The cabinet may gradually cool down Wei Keng in the military, but it does not mean that Luoshui, who has made a great contribution this time, will be despised.
