Chapter 1135: Cross-Sea Landing Battle
Under these circumstances, in order to effectively defend the coast and prevent the other side from successfully landing and fighting, at this time, under such circumstances, General Rodtang had already ordered his men to build numerous land-based defensive military facilities along the coastal coast of the main city of Rigo. Among these land-based defensive military facilities, the largest number is that kind of ground artillery.
You must know that this kind of ground cannon has a longer firing range, and the attack effect is also relatively obvious, which is very suitable for long-range attacks on targets on the sea surface. In addition, machine gun pillboxes were built between the two ground guns, the purpose of which was to prevent the infantry combat force of the enemy army in the landing operation. You must know that this kind of machine-gun pillbox has obvious advantages in dealing with infantry combat units, which has been clearly reflected in many previous battles.
-------------------------
However, despite this, General Luo Tang knew very well in his heart that if the other side really wanted to carry out a cross-sea landing and war, then the other side must have some means that he did not expect. However, from the current situation, this is the only thing she can do. The only thing he can do is to do his best to develop his mobile combat forces. And this is where his greatest hope lies.
For this reason, in the following period, General Rodtang basically - on the main - general - the production of mobile combat forces. Even, for this reason, he has set up a special mobile combat force supervision group, whose main function is to take over the military production departments, and to supervise the production of their military combat units alone. Among them, the speed, quality, general level of combat operations of the production of military combat units, and so on. In short, in terms of military production, especially in the production of combat vehicle units, this steering group has basically become the most important supervisory force. Because in a large way, this steering group can basically fully represent General Luo Tang.
According to General Rodtang's requirements, the combat units of the combat vehicles produced by the tank factory must have the following factors. First, they must have heavy armor, ~~ so that their defense ability can reach the highest level. Although, as everyone knows, for a combat unit of a tank, once the armor is increased, and in particular, the thickness of the armor is increased, in this case, although the defense capability is improved, but, then again, at the same time, it also increases a considerable weight, and therefore, it will definitely consume a lot of power.
In this case, although the thickness of the armor has increased, and the comprehensive defensive performance of the combat vehicle has been strengthened, but with it, his movement speed will definitely decrease. At the same time, in terms of mobility and flexibility, it will certainly be affected by the strictness.
However, for General Rodtang, it doesn't care about that. The steering group, in full accordance with General Rodtang's order, took General Rodtang's order as the basic principle of production in supervising the generation process of the chariot factory. That is, not only must the armor of the vehicle be sufficiently resistant to the most powerful shells, but at the same time, it must be able to be flexible and mobile enough, especially the speed of travel, without any effect.
In this case, the engineers in charge of the production of the chariot were almost exhausted, and in desperation, they could only cut corners and find ways to meet the requirements of General Rodtang, even if it was by deception. Eventually, they claimed that they had developed a new type of material that could completely replace steel plates as armor materials for combat vehicles. This new type of material has a relatively low specific gravity and, therefore, a relatively small natural mass for the same volume.
In this way, the overall weight of the tank was solved. In fact, the latest invention of this new material by their greatness is not the latest invention of a new material, but a kind of ceramic. That is to say, they will do the same, as a substitute for rushing armor, only on the outside of the ceramic, with a thin layer of iron, so that this look, such an armored combat vehicle, looks very heavy, definitely a heavy combat vehicle, and, because of their relatively low weight, in terms of the speed of travel, the target is not affected in the slightest.
But in fact, it was this kind of cutting corners that laid the groundwork for the annihilation of General Luo Tang's future chariot war. At this moment, General Rodtang is personally at the scene to personally inspect the combat strength of the newly produced Xinshi chariot. Facing the heavy armored combat vehicles shining with metallic luster of his predecessors, on the training ground, the eight immortals crossed the sea to show their magical powers, and General Luo Tang couldn't help but smile a little bit of difficulty.
--------------------------
According to General Rodtang's plan, that is, after all, he has deployed a large number of shore-based defensive military facilities in the coastal areas. Therefore, in such a situation, even if the enemy army can finally land smoothly, it will definitely pay a heavy price. Under such circumstances, their own mobile combat forces rushed forward and swept away the remnants of the opponent's remaining combat forces that had successfully fought across the sea.
It should be said that his abacus is still very good. However, having said that, he still felt a kind of crisis in a faint way. Moreover, such a sense of crisis has not appeared in him for a long time. Moreover, she couldn't explain why. It's just that, vaguely, a sense of foreboding has been enveloping him.
-------------------------
Perhaps, General Rodtang's hunch was correct. Because, at this time, in this situation, the long-range bomber under the command of General Sibit was taking off from the airfield on the small island of Bahrain, which had just been repaired, and at this time, under this situation, roaring, flying over the sea, towards the area where the main city of Rigoh was located, was flying towards the area where the main city of Rigoh was located. Their main task was to destroy the shore-based defensive military installations deployed by the enemy in the coastal areas through guò and aerial bombardment.
For General Sibbit, this was the only military task given to him by Liu Qingshan. Prior to this, it was true that Liu Qingshan ordered General Sibit to build the small island of Bahrain into a stable logistics supply center with the adverb Jiang Ming, which in itself was a great achievement. However, by chance, when General Sibit was on the small island of Bahrain and was on patrol, he once spotted the airfield that had been blown up into ruins.
Yes, this airfield, during the battle not so long ago, was once a focal point of contention between the two sides. In order to fight for that airfield, both sides invested huge forces, especially on the enemy side, because for them, as long as they could control that airfield, then they could turn the whole tide of the war.
It was under these circumstances, at that time, General Barras, who was specifically responsible for commanding this detachment, that almost two-thirds of his combat forces were drawn from the enemy's side, and they were completely concentrated around that airfield, and a very obvious bombing situation had been formed.
Therefore, at that time, General Ballas immediately called the guò long-range communication system and asked Liu Qingshan to carry out long-range strategic bombing of that airfield. As a result, five long-range strategic bombers, and soon, YI flew over this airfield. At that time, on the ground, the battle was in full swing, and the assault detachment sent by General Barras to try to retake the airfield was facing the encirclement of the enemy and was in danger of being annihilated at any moment.
So, at this time, in this situation, an aerial bombardment of unprecedented scale immediately began. As a result, dense heavy bombs rained down from the sky and rained down on the periphery of that airfield. Of course, because before that, Liu Qingshan had already given the order to carry out an indiscriminate bombing attack on that airfield. Therefore, at this time, in this situation, the bombardment basically wiped out all the ground combat forces that the enemy side of the main city had spoken of.
It was that bombing that basically completely changed the balance of forces between the two sides on that small island in Bahrain. It had been from that moment that General Barras had only fought the troops, essentially completely occupying the initiative on the battlefield. However, because of that bombing, the airfield was basically completely destroyed, and all kinds of military facilities and some of the most basic hardware construction were greatly damaged.
-------------------------
Later, by chance, General Hibbit came to the vicinity of the airfield when he was building a small island in Bahrain. At that time, the airfield attacked the strained area, and the destruction was dilapidated, unsightly, chaotic, and in a mess. On the ground, there were craters and debris everywhere, and most of the trees had been burned. In particular, in that airport, in addition to the runway, many of them were able to retain their original appearance, and some other facilities were basically completely destroyed beyond recognition.
At this time, under these circumstances, General Sibbit's eyes suddenly lit up, and an idea came to him, that is, they could completely rehabilitate this airfield as an important military base for air support on the front line behind their base.
In particular, General Sibbit considered that when his troop carriers were carrying out cross-sea landing operations, they would certainly be under heavy attack from the enemy's side with the shore-based stationary combat weapons built on the opposite shore. Although those troop carriers have built an earthen cannon at the bow of the ship, so that they have a certain offensive capability, in the face of the dense fixed military facilities built by the other side, they will definitely encounter a huge defensive position in the process of landing on the beach. And this is exactly what the commander-in-chief is most worried about.
However, if they are able to carry out aerial bombardment before the beach-rushing landing and destroy to the maximum extent the enemy's shore-based defensive military installations, then they must not be able to minimize the casualties of their landing combat troops, because before that, although an airfield had been built at their base camp military base, after all, the road was far away, and they still needed to refuel on the way, otherwise they would not be able to complete the bombing mission smoothly.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
Subsequently, when General Sibit told Liu Qingshan of his idea, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but applaud. Liu Qingshan admitted: In terms of internal affairs construction, General Sibit does have a unique advantage. He admired this very much. For example, this time, the abandoned airfield on this small island in Bahrain has long since lost its value. Otherwise, he would not have ordered his long-range bombers to bomb indiscriminately when they were bombing at that time.
But now, after being reminded by General Hibbit, he realized that this was not the case. Originally, according to Liu Qingshan's operational plan, before his own cross-sea landing combat unit landed on the beach, it was natural that it would be necessary to use his own long-range strategic bombers to carry out carpet bombing of those shore-based defensive military installations built by the enemy on the opposite bank. Otherwise, relying only on their own cross-sea combat units to carry out a frontal forced attack, they will definitely suffer a huge amount of time. In this way, once the sharp spirit is frustrated by the enemy, then the next battle will be very difficult.
-------------------------
However, just as General Sibbit analyzed, it would have been impossible to achieve such a long-distance bombing mission by relying only on the airfield located in his base camp military base. Knowing this time, Liu Qingshan woke up like a dream. That is to say, when their long-range strategic bombers take off from their base camp military bases, they must have a transit station, and at that transit station, they must refuel halfway before they can fly to the landing area of their own cross-sea combat units to carry out long-range bombing missions.
In this way, at this time, in this situation, the eye can really highlight what kind of value the abandoned airport has. So, when Liu Qingshan jumped to General Sibit's construction, he immediately approved General Sibit's construction of the airfield that had been blown up.
So, in this way, in the ensuing time, General Sibit spent two days, although a lot of resources and funds were consumed, but, after all, the airfield of the marksmanship was repaired. In this way, those long-range strategic bombers that take off from their base camp military bases can also refuel halfway and then continue to fly, carrying out long-range bombing missions with ease.
--------------------------
Now, when the thousands of troop carriers under the personal command of Liu Qingshan and General Barras were less than 30 kilometers away from the coast heavily guarded by the other side, there was a sudden roar in the sky.
I saw that more than a dozen long-range strategic bombers, at this time, flew over the sea surface and flew towards the coastal area in front of them amid a roar. Soon after, one after another, heavy bombs fell from those long-range strategic bombers, and all of a sudden, the explosion in that coastal area shook the sky, and one after another the dark red explosion flames rose into the sky. In this way, an aerial bombardment of unprecedented scale finally began.
It should be said that the high-altitude bombs dropped by these long-range strategic bombers of Liu Qingshan were quite powerful. Each high-explosive bomb, without displaying the amount of TNT produced, is equivalent to thirty tons of TNT explosives and the resulting destructive capacity. Moreover, more than a dozen long-range strategic bombers were bombing at the same time, and the dense high-explosive bombs, one after another, were very dense, and they fell to the ground one after another like raindrops.
"Coax coax...... Coaxing ......and coaxing" The sound of explosions one after another was deafening, and one after another dark red explosions and fires rose above the ground, rising into the sky, one after another, on the coastline of hundreds of miles, such a big bombardment, one after another, almost without a dead end.
As a result, basically more than 70 percent of the shore-based defensive ground military installations built by the enemy's troops have been severely damaged. At this time, under these circumstances, Liu Qingshan and General Ballas returned to the cross-sea landing combat unit, which was already on the verge of the coast and was carrying out the final beach-grabbing landing operation. For a while, the battle was in full swing, and the most critical moment finally came.
For Liu Qingshan, this time, whether he can successfully land on the beach directly determines his next step and whether he can effectively organize the battle to attack the main city of Rigo. Now, the aerial bombardment on their own side has basically ended. The dozen or so long-range strategic bombers, after dropping a last-minute high-explosive bomb, returned to the base in shock. Next, it's up to them to say their own thing.
