135 wars make people progressive
"According to the information sent back by the front-line air force, the enemy's long-range magic attack seems to rely on the magic array outlined on the ground......" Air Force Commander-in-Chief Butolia brought up the news about the Holy Demon Empire's magic legion in the conference room.
"The statements of the Frentzberg advisers have been confirmed, and we can study countermeasures against this mode of operation." As he spoke, he walked over to some hand-drawn white drawings of the magic array, pointed to the replicas of the magic array sketched by Frentzberg, and said: "The pilot saw groups of magicians, and some large magical beasts gathered in the rear, so they chose to drop bombs. ”

"Then our air force continued to sortie, but the attack effect was not as good as on the day of the war, and the opponent used magic to attack the air defense, and our losses were also very large." As he said this, he looked at His Majesty Chris, the Emperor of Irlanhill, who was sitting at the top of the table.
The combat capability of the Air Force has been obvious to all in recent days, and the radar and fighter patrols alone have suppressed the harassment tactics of the Dragon Knights. The fighter pilots fought hard again and again, and they were indeed worthy of the investment of the entire empire in them.
With these fighter units, the Dragon Knight's air supremacy has changed hands, and the Holy Demon Empire can no longer use the sky unscrupulously, no matter how you look at it, this result can be described as super value.
The representative of the army unit sitting at the conference table continued: "The artillery unit tried its best to inflict casualties on the other side, and the effect was also very good, but in the face of the enemy's attack, we still fell into a dilemma. ”
He spoke of his difficulty: "If we suppress the opponent's magic with artillery, then we will lose long-range firepower on the frontal battlefield, and if we ignore the enemy's magic array, then our casualties may increase exponentially." ”
"There are a lot of options, but I think the use of new weapons is more in line with the situation we are facing." Chris thought for a moment and felt that there were many weapons that were designed to deal with the environment in front of him, so he spoke.
Minister Smith of the Department of Industry nodded yes and continued, "Yes! Your Majesty is right, we are speeding up the production of a weapon that can instantly pour a large amount of ammunition into the target area, and the design bureau calls this weapon the Katyusha rocket launcher, which I heard is a very good weapon and equipment that can be used against the enemy's vital forces. ”
Iran Hill's weapons research and development department was not idle, and they quickly found weapons suitable for Iran Hill's equipment in response to the tactics of the Magic Empire: many weapons came from the Soviet Union, and they were cheap and powerful horror weapons.
"A brand new weapon can replace several cannons, and a rocket artillery regiment is enough to destroy all the magic arrays on the opponent's position." He pulled out a drawing, pressed it on the table, and showed what the weapon looked like.
From the side, it looks like a familiar truck, with a rail frame that resembles a radar antenna mounted on the compartment. The structure of this thing is very simple, and the simplicity makes one doubt its combat effectiveness.
Of course, Chris knew how perverted Katyusha was to deal with the uncovered and densely standing magic legion, so he nodded and said: "This weapon is safer than the Il-2 attack aircraft, and it does not need to face the enemy's magic attack, it is a very effective suppression weapon!" ”
"As with previous weapons, this weapon is very easy to mass-produce, and it only takes some rails to set up on a truck to make a launcher - because the attack density is so high, this weapon doesn't even need precision." Confident in the new weapon, Smith spoke along.
In fact, in addition to this weapon, Alan Hill is also working hard to develop a variety of new weapons to reduce the threat of the other side. For example, because the Il-2 attack aircraft is not very effective, Chris has already begun to prepare for a more powerful bomber.
On the one hand, he began to produce the famous American B-25 bomber, and on the other hand, he began to prepare the factory for the production of the more powerful and unreasonable B-17 Flying Fortress strategic bomber.
In Chris's opinion, it is more comfortable for me to go to your house to kill people and set fire to your house if you always let you come to make trouble—he produces strategic bombers for one purpose, that is, to burn the flames of war to the hinterland of the Holy Demon Empire!
Anyway, the dragon will definitely not be able to catch up with those fast and highly perverted strategic bombers, and he doesn't need to prepare escort fighters...... As long as those bombers flew over the cities of the Holy Demon Empire and began dropping bombs, Chris felt that the war would become fair.
Letting those magical cities that have not experienced war for hundreds or even thousands of years enjoy the storm of steel is undoubtedly a great achievement of His Majesty the Emperor of a mortal empire.
Even if he dies in the end under the counterattack of his opponent and can become the first mortal leader to fight into the hinterland of the Magic Empire, Chris feels that he can die without regrets no matter what he says.
On the other hand, it is doubtful that once the magicians see their hometown destroyed by bombs, they will continue such a crazy war.
I wonder if those magicians will give up the senseless war and treat the mortal empire as equals under the threat of reciprocity, so as to realize the equality of mortals and magicians in the true sense.
After talking about the construction of the Air Force and rocket artillery units, Smith talked about the production of tank units: "Tank units are also increasing production, and we expect to increase production to the level of five vehicles per day in a few days." ”
This speed is definitely not slow, 5 tanks a day, a full 1,800 tanks a year, which is already one-eighth of the output of US imperialism that year. Although the United States still had to build countless warships and fighter jets back then, it is incorrect to compare it only in terms of tank production, and the production capacity of Lovely Lanhir can be described as powerful.
The commander of the army walked to the front of the map and gave Chris a precise explanation with a whip: "With the reinforcements of the 1st Army, we have initially stabilized the defensive line, the reserves are in place, and the losses of the 2nd Army have been replenished. We plan to throw in armored forces about 100 kilometers west of Higsnar to counterattack the ground forces of the Holy Demon Empire! ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the map and said to Chris: "According to the current state of advancement, the opponent's attack will form a salient near there, and our tanks will attack from the south to the north of this salient, cutting into the opponent's flank, and striving to encircle all the Holy Demon Empire troops in the territory of Higgs." ”
"Don't have too much appetite, be careful not to eat each other, but let yourself lose a lot." Chris opened his mouth to remind his operational staff officers.
The other party immediately held his head high and opened his mouth to admit: "Yes!" Your Majesty! We'll be careful! ”
Although because of the departure of Her Royal Highness the Princess, his wedding was postponed indefinitely. But the good news from other quarters made the Emperor of Irlanhill happy. The Dowson Empire's attack was stopped by Coria and Modryel in the Abyssal River, and the other side lost more than 50,000 soldiers before they could even move forward.
The attack in the direction of the steppe was smoother, and General Simon led the steppe cavalry to sweep through the eastern steppe, completely driving the steppe emperor Nicholas out of the eastern region. General Simon, who controlled a large number of tribes, continued to advance westward, and was storming the royal tent of the Prairie Empire with the cooperation of the Elanhill grenadiers.
In less than ten days, news of victory will come from there. As long as the Prairie Empire is taken, the northern region of Elanhill will become a completely safe rear. It will provide Irlanhill with an innumerable supply of wool and meat to support Ellendhill's further expansion of the population.
"Order Simon to be steady, not to be greedy. I waited for the news of his victory, and that's it. After Chris gave his advice, he looked to the other side of the room: "How's going on on the reserve side?" ”
"300,000 well-trained reserves have been transferred to the front, and if necessary, we can immediately form another 300,000 reinforcements to the front."
"However, I suggest that the follow-up troops be retrained and trained, which can effectively reduce casualties."
"Yes! Let them leave in a month! Chris knew that everything was still under his control, so he didn't feel the need to let the second-line troops go up and fill the holes and waste the precious lives of civilians.
The railroad connecting Higgs is being built day and night, the war potential of the Irlanhill Empire is bursting out, the battlefield situation that was originally evenly matched has now completely changed, and the balance of victory and defeat in the war is quietly tilting towards the side of the Irlanhill Empire.
Even if the war in the Higgs region is deadlocked, the victory on the northern front is enough to excite the capital of Ellan Hill. Investing in a mortal empire that can defeat the Magic Empire is even more appealing to those long-term businessmen.
"Is there any news from the search team that went out to find Princess Luna?" At the end of the meeting, Chris had to worry about his fiancée, because the Minister of Defense, Grand Duke Casterner, was still sitting on his left hand side at this time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Archduke Castena, who had always looked ugly, stood up apologetically, bent down and bowed his head, and said, "The latest news is that she requisitioned two trucks and entered the Higgs area. ”
"Let someone bring her back! It's not very safe there right now. Chris said calmly: "However, don't use the regular army, it's not in accordance with the rules...... Let my guards get over there, and make sure to keep Her Royal Highness Princess Luna safe. ”
Kastner saluted gratefully and replied, "Yes!" Your Majesty! Thank you very much ......"
