Volume 3 The Chaotic Present Chapter 77 Sorrow is so great and difficult is so great
In the present world, Zhang Dongchen is the child of a rich family, a standard rich second generation. Is it that the wealthy Fang Qiuling doesn't know and doesn't care, but it is inevitable to express envy and jealousy - it's amazing to be rich!
And in Teldaheim, Zhang Dongchen is a feudal lord on the pastoral side, a veritable earl, and a count of real power. Fang Qiuling currently holds the title of viscount, but there is no one under his command, no land, no land, no money, so he can only continue to express envy and jealousy - there are people, land, and money, which is amazing!
- Why is there such a big gap between the Adventist and the Adventist?
originally thought that he was already okay in Elune, and even "tricked" the female paladin to the present world to play. But compare it with Zhang Dongchen...... This guy directly opened the harem to the present world!
- How spicy is sadness and sorrow!
In the hour that followed, Zhang described the big trouble he was in Terdaheim, a complex issue involving military, internal affairs, foreign affairs, and personnel.
Before the outbreak of the Doomsday War more than 30 years ago, the large and small forces of Teldaheim were divided into two camps early. The two camps are antagonistic and fighting each other, and the cause of the outbreak of the Doomsday War is also related to the gradual white-hot contradictions between the two camps.
The Doomsday War lasted for three years, and was finally forcibly terminated by the collapse bullets that fell from the sky. Both camps, whether it was the Pan-Telda Confederate or the Lilvida Entente, were devastated. Then came the Winter of Collapse, a Winter of Collapse in which countless people died in the cold and countless people died in hunger.
More than 30 years have passed, and the generation that lived through the winter of collapse has grown old, and the new generation has begun to emerge. In the past 30 years, it has been the most peaceful 30 years in Terdaheim, and although local conflicts are still unavoidable, various forces, large and small, have maintained unprecedented restraint and tried to deal with various disputes through negotiation as much as possible.
However, it is also because of the passage of time, mankind has once again repeated the mistakes of the past. The old Confederate and Allied powers, which had been buried in the collapse bombs, began to stir up again, and it seemed that there was a great intention to draw all the forces of Terdaheim into the war again.
The problem Zhang Dongchen faced was simply and straightforwardly stated, that is, the question of taking sides: whether to become a member of the old Allied powers, join the old Allied powers, or remain neutral, or have other options......
The old Confederate powers now retain an extremely strong armed force, with a number of fully staffed main fleets. The old Entente powers now control vast territories and have a slight advantage in scientific and technological research. The comprehensive strength of the two camps can be said to be comparable. Ironically, before the Doomsday War, the Allies were known for their vast territory and technology, while the Allies were known for their strong military force......
As for neutrality - this choice was too bad from the start!
Don't think it's a good idea to be neutral and offend both sides. Don't think it's that easy to become a Merchant of Death! The current foreign policy pursued by both camps is "friend or foe", to put it simply: join us as one or die. It's as simple and crude as that.
- Neutrality. Heh, just swallow the neutral one, and then take it over directly, isn't it fragrant? Do you have to get a force that is not under your control to jump there, and make yourself uncomfortable?
"I basically understood. The most immediate problem now is that the Alliance requires you to join, surrender all your armed forces, all your resources, and unconditionally obey the Alliance's arrangements. So the Alliance has sent a base fleet to a 'goodwill visit' in the name of inspection? ”
"Yes."
At the same time, the Entente made the same request, but the terms of the Entente were slightly better. However, although the conditions are good, the geographical location of the Aurora Territory determines that the Aurora Territory can only become a bridgehead against the Entente Alliance, a huge meat grinder. If you don't want to be cannon fodder, it's best not to join the Entente. ”
"That's right. I can't see that Thulick is very good at getting to the point. ”
Fang Qiuling reached out and picked up the glass and took a shallow sip of orange juice.
"The best-case scenario, the best solution, is to remain neutral, to swing left and right between the two camps, and to keep maneuvering."
"Definitely. But to be a neutral wall-to-wall grass, it is unlikely. Zhang Dongchen also picked up the glass, "The current leader of the alliance is quite wise, he is an old general who has experienced the Doomsday War, and the little tricks of the left and right are simply untenable in front of him." At present, all the decisions of the agreement will be passed through by the super intelligent terminal, and the intelligent terminal may not be creative, but there is nothing to say about the details. When the time comes, it will not be left and right, but left and right looking for death! ”
Fang Qiuling also nodded in agreement: "Then which gang are you leaning towards now?" Alliance, or Entente? ”
Zhang Dongchen lowered his head and was silent. However, his appearance didn't look like hesitation, which made Fang Qiuling a little puzzled.
“…… You're not sure which gang to join? ”
"No, it's decided ......"
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"It's because I've already made a decision that I feel like I'm going to have a tough road. I feel a little stressed. ”
"Oh, yes. As a lord, as a leader, the decisions made are not about one person, but about a large group of people. With a matter of life and death for a large group of people, it's no surprise that it feels stressed. Fang Qiuling expressed understanding, "Say, you, Dawning Leader, are you planning to join the Alliance, or join the Entente?" ”
"The conditions given by the alliance are too harsh, and joining the alliance is almost like surrendering unconditionally. It is true that the alliance is much stronger than the Entente in terms of military strength, but there are many internal factions, and there are many contradictions between them. It's hard to say how much combat power it can really exert. It looks powerful, but it's just a paper tiger. ”
Fang Qiuling shrugged his shoulders noncommittally. He is not very familiar with the world of Terdaheim, even if he has read a lot of information and listened to Zhang Dongchen's explanation, he still knows nothing. If he wanted to "give directions", he thought it would be better to leave it to the Native Advent who was more familiar with Terdaheim's side.
"Joining the Entente would seem to be a bridgehead against the Entente, and it would be a perennial war, but it would also be aided by the Entente. As things stand, the Entente is in dire need of Dawn to join. Once the Dawning Territory joins the Entente, then the defense line in the southwest of the Entente will be connected, and the southwest front will gain absolute superiority. ”
"Looks like you're leaning towards the Entente."
"Yes. In fact, the negotiations with the treaty were almost over, and the terms of the agreement were better than expected, and the support was even greater. Joining the Entente looks dangerous, and you will face the Alliance's troops directly. Although the Alliance's military power is strong, it can draw a fleet to launch an offensive against the Dawning Leader...... There are only a few. If there are too many transfers, the main battlefield of the alliance will not be maintained. ”
"In other words, as long as you can block a few attacks of the alliance and beat the alliance hard, the alliance will be honest. You can live in peace. ”
"Yes."
Zhang Dongchen drank the orange juice in the glass.
"Now that we have decided to join the Entente, what about the fleet sent by the Alliance to inspect and send a 'goodwill visit'?"
Zhang Dongchen showed a wry smile: "Xiulik, you are really good at grasping the key points. ”
"You're here to deal with this 'friendly visit' fleet, right? Say, how? Is it to pretend to be pirates and directly wash them away, or to get an explosive ship to 'boom'. Or do you have an idea? Fang Qiuling also drank the orange juice in the cup, "Hmm...... This orange juice tastes good, sweet but not greasy, is there? What brand? ”
"I squeezed it myself, and I brought it from Terdaheim."
A virtual condensation screen jumped out, Zhang Dongchen stretched out his hand and clicked a few times on the virtual condensation screen, and the virtual condensation screen disappeared immediately. After a while, there was a gentle knock on the frosted glass door, and Murong Qiuxue reappeared outside the door pushing the small food cart.
Waiting for Murong Qiuxue to add drinks and snacks, the conversation between the two continued.
"It's not that simple, you can't tear your face directly with the alliance now, and you have to wait three months to tear your face."
"Will there be changes in three months?"
"Yes. The Entente's newest floating ship is complete, and it needs to be ......"
"Stop, stop, ......"
Fang Qiuling interrupted Zhang Dongchen's description with a loud voice.
"How?"
"I don't need to tell you anything after that, the background introduction is pretty much the same, and it doesn't matter if I know the rest or not. Let's get straight to the point. The biggest headache right now is the fleet that the Alliance is visiting, right? I'm here to deal with this fleet, right? Tell me directly, what are you going to do with this 'friendly envoy'? ”
Teldaheim is a whole world by any means. The two major forces in the whole world, it is estimated that it will not be enough to introduce the relevant background for three days and three nights, so Fang Qiuling chose to go straight to the core
“…… Also. Let's start with the plan. Zhang Dongchen thought for a moment, and then continued, "But before talking about the plan, I would like to introduce the composition and personnel of this 'friendly envoy'. ”
"Please."
I didn't see Zhang Dongchen do anything again, and the virtual condensation screen jumped out in front of the two of them.
The screen shows a picture with a clear blue sky as the background. In the picture, a fleet of twelve floating ships of all sizes is sailing in an orderly formation.
The shape of the floating ship is like a long spindle, with a long blue-white track trail on the tail, and the orange-red light of the engine is clearly visible. On the largest floating ship in the center of the fleet, several humanoid mechs are taking off.
"Wow!" Fang Qiuling immediately exclaimed, "This is that fleet?" ”
There are floating ships, mechas, and the definition is very high, and when you zoom in, you can clearly see the wide various details on the floating ship, and the weapons held by the humanoid mecha - such photos are no problem directly as promotional posters for science fiction games.
"That's right." Zhang Dongchen directly operated on the virtual condensation screen with his fingers, "The first three are cruisers, the next two are battleships, the largest one in the middle is the air carrier, the two larger ones behind the air carrier are supply ships, and the remaining four are frigates." ”
Three red circles appeared on the Void Condensation Screen, marking the empty carrier and the two supply ships.
"The cruisers and battleships used by the League were old-fashioned high-speed ships. Although it has strong firepower and thick armor, it does not have the ability to carry a strong attack machine. Because of the small size of the frigate, it can carry at most one. Therefore, the use of assault aircraft is usually handed over to the air carrier, or the supply ship. ”
A small line of square-like text resembling a man appears on the photo. Fang Qiuling recognized it slightly, and quickly recognized it: "Pan Terda Alliance stationed in the White Sea Fleet, the second mixed fleet ......"
This square character is not a modern text, although it is the first time to see it, Fang Qiuling can still understand the meaning of the text very clearly.
"Do you know that? This is the Terofana language, which is the local script of Teldaheim. ”
"Hmm...... I have a spell that I know the language on me. ”
It was too troublesome to explain why this language was used, so Fang Qiuling simply pushed this directly to the spell.
"Oh, it's really convenient to know magic...... Zhang Dongchen sighed casually, and continued to say, "The formation of twelve ships is generally called the backbone fleet. Mixed means that a fleet of different ships is made up, and a fleet of a single type of ship will be named directly with the type of ship in the fleet name. Mixed fleets are generally also independent fleets, fleets that can independently perform combat missions for a long time. ”
Fang Qiuling raised his hand, like a primary school student asking a question.
"How many ships does the Dawning Leader have?"
"Eight cruisers, two empty carriers converted from supply ships."
"That's okay, I don't feel like the gap in combat power is not very big."
In Fang Qiuling's understanding, the main combat force of the fleet of the Pan-Telda Alliance is twelve ships, and the Dawning Leader ships are ten. If the supply ships are removed first, then the ship-to-ship ratio will be ten to eight. Rounding up the tonnage of the ship again, and roughly estimating, ten against eight, the Dawning Leader should not lose in terms of combat power.
"It's true that there is not much difference in terms of warships, but the gap in terms of assault aircraft is relatively large. The combat capabilities of a single aircraft are definitely on our side, they are all newly developed new models, whether it is armor, mobility, firepower, they are all occupied. But it's ...... in numbers."
"How much is the difference?"
"I've got twenty-two of them here. Counterpart...... It is conservatively estimated that there will be no less than fifty aircraft, and the maximum is expected to be around eighty. ”
"The best-case scenario is one-to-two, and the worst-case scenario is close to one-to-four." Fang Qiuling pointed to the two battleships in the Void Condensation Screen, "If the attacking machine and the battleship fight, what is the general situation?" ”
"Four to one to ten to one. Look at the performance of the fuselage, look at the capabilities of the pilot, look at the anti-aircraft fire of the battleship. ”
"In other words, to deal with this mixed fleet, with the current strength of the Dawn Command...... Losing mostly? ”
"Yes. Most of them lose. ”
