1225 Late Night Through Train

"I have thought about it..." Mr. Wardrick said honestly, "and the engineer also gave me some plans."

"I mean, where should our main direction be next, towards the air, or towards the ground?"

Mr. Wardrick is actually very good at business, otherwise he would not have become the head of the consortium, let alone the current family business.

He knows that specialization is the direction of development. This is true in all walks of life. When specialization reaches the extreme in any product or technology, you will not be afraid of any challenges.

Even if Lynch doesn't mention this matter, he will take the initiative to split the multi-functional tanks into specialized tanks in the future.

Anti-aircraft tanks and tanks aimed at infantry, he is a little hesitant now because he doesn't know which way to develop.

Planes, air forces and air strikes are now the hottest time, and almost everyone is discussing them, including some ordinary people.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in the Federation. The lower class people pay more attention to national affairs!

It seems that they are already the "builders" and "maintainers" of this country, as some propaganda posters say.

They are very concerned about any national or even international events. They are more concerned about what reports the president has made recently than their children's studies.

Are they more concerned about how strong the federal military is than the health of their families?

There are many people like this. If you just find an ordinary tavern in the downtown area of ​​a city and spend a dollar to buy a glass of wine, you can hear discussions coming from everywhere.

There are countless similar taverns that seem to host a group of the smartest people in the Federation. They can talk about the future development direction of the country and new policies in the city, and they can also evaluate the best ones. Disadvantages and prospects for possible implementation.

Lynch was tasting the fresh grilled steak. It was said that some kind of normal temperature pressure processing method was used to completely release the blood in the steak without affecting the taste.

Blood water is one of the main reasons for the change in the taste of beef, and then some sauce is penetrated into it during the frying and roasting process, so as to enhance its flavor without losing its taste. In short, it is a messy cooking method. .

But people like to try new things, and the richer they are, the more so.

"The steak is good!" he commented, while cutting the steak, he said, "You know, the air force can destroy the enemy's resistance, but it cannot occupy the enemy's territory. It is definitely not the case to focus its main development on ground issues. question."

As he spoke, he put another piece of beef into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed, then said, "The future of anti-aircraft weapons will not entirely fall on weapons such as machine guns. As the speed of aircraft becomes faster and faster, even if you You can see the plane, but you can’t hit it.”

In the future, the main force against aircraft will still be various missiles and anti-aircraft guns... which may only become mainstream in the next twenty years.

And as the speed of aircraft begins to increase, it will be difficult for anti-aircraft guns to hit various aircraft, including bombers, in the future.

Its few uses may only be to form a fire network with other anti-aircraft guns to prevent aircraft from approaching certain areas.

It really plays a "defensive" role, not an "attack".

The deeper the research into weapons such as anti-aircraft cannons, the more costs will be wasted, and the more difficult it will be to turn around in the future.

It is better to continue to attack the tanks on the ground now. The armored torrent is also a kind of "romantic".

Mr. Wardrick nodded as if he understood something from Lynch's words, "I think I understand."

Lynch shook his head, "You still don't understand. It can be said that you don't understand war at all."

"Before it was possible for a single soldier to destroy the armor, the tank's thick armor was its most valuable asset."

"We have also seen this in actual battles. The federal and coalition forces began to collapse not long after contact with the Pengeo people. On the contrary, we pulled out some tanks and stabilized the situation directly."

"As long as they can't destroy those armors, the front line will be where the tanks are!"

"We need to continue to thicken its armor, make its appearance design more consistent with mechanical principles, and at the same time give it strong firepower."

"Chariots cooperate with infantry to advance on the ground, coupled with air force cover, this is the core of future wars!"

"In other words, the air force is indeed important, but tanks are even more important!"

If the emperor of Pengeo knew that Lynch said this, then he would definitely think that Lynch was his confidant.

At this moment, Emperor Peng Jie'ao was also talking about these issues.

"We have discovered some problems during this period of fighting. In the research of tanks, we are obviously lagging behind the Federation and even the world. This should never happen."

The emperor of the Pengeo Empire still looked listless. He looked at the ministers and scientists under his seat.

"I know some people are rejecting mechanization, and I can understand them. If anyone encounters something they don't understand and wants to be with them, they will first be afraid and rejected."

"But our military and scientists should not be like this. The cavalry is still necessary, but mechanization is more necessary."

"This time the Baile people's chariots gave us a reminder. Gentlemen, it only takes a dozen or so to make thousands of warriors unable to lift their heads."

"What if there are more of them, dozens, hundreds?"

"Do our soldiers need to use blood and flesh to fight against the tsunami of steel?"

"I clearly understand that the future belongs to the air force and the army, and these belong to aircraft and combat vehicles respectively."

"The Baile people are already ahead of us, and we need to speed up to keep up with them."

"More advanced aircraft, more tanks!"

In the past many years, Pengeo's cavalry has been the best in the world, which has also led to many people always holding on to the same old ideas and being unwilling to make progress.

In the past, when there was no greater pressure on the army, this idea was not a big problem, but now that the pressure has begun, and those tanks have indeed caused many unnecessary casualties, some things urgently need to change.

In fact, the emperor knew very well why these people were "conservative". To put it bluntly, conservative people were essentially just trying to protect their rights from being infringed.

If the mechanized transformation of the army is accelerated, some generals will definitely be replaced.

They are not familiar with the new combat equipment, the tactics derived from the new combat equipment, and the strategic intentions of these tactics. They belong to the previous era and do not belong to the current era.

Times have changed, and equipment has also been updated, so should these old people be eliminated?

This is inevitable. No one can stand on the forefront of the times forever, no one can!

The Imperial Marshal stood up straight, "I think I understand, Your Majesty, I will promote research on tanks as soon as possible."

The emperor rubbed his face and looked like he was a little sleep deprived. "What was the result of the peace talks?"

The Foreign Secretary responded immediately, "The Commonwealth would like us to acknowledge the negative role we played in this conflict."

"A very rude request, putting a little more pressure on them, and at the same time accusing them of provoking disputes..." His Majesty the Emperor quickly gave his thoughts.

Later, some photos were circulated to foreign media. In these photos, there were pictures of the Pengeo Imperial Army boarding the ship in neat rows, and a large number of various supplies were being transported and gathered.

These photos were all taken recently. They don’t have any titles. Instead, they give people a very scary feeling, like a war is about to break out!

Since Pengeo's bombing formation air-attacked the fleet in the Oxhorn Strait, the federal fleet is now far away from that place.

This also meant that the transportation that had been blocked by the fleet for less than a day was once again connected, and these soldiers and supplies would undoubtedly be transported to the mainland across the strait.

The entire international atmosphere has become tense because of these photos. Some people even believe that the prelude to the destruction of World War II has begun.

It's just that both sides seem to have no idea of ​​compromise on the peace talks, and both stick to their positions.

Just when no one knew whether the front page of the newspaper they would get when they got up tomorrow morning would have a headline like "War!", Prime Minister Gevra made a phone call to the President late at night.

After a brief exchange of greetings, the Prime Minister explained the intention of his call, "The world needs peace, Mr. President, the wounds left by the last war have not been healed yet, we need time!"

"I'm not afraid of anyone, I just think that now is not a good time to start a war. Maybe we can make some changes in time."

Generally, phone calls like this between rulers rarely happen. They are the supreme rulers. Once irresolvable differences arise between them, it is easy to go directly to confrontation.

But the Prime Minister couldn't wait any longer. The Federation was constantly rotating, and no one knew how many soldiers they had left in Nagaril.

Pengeo's side is also constantly conducting small-scale operations, and judging from the recently exposed photos, they are gathering the main force.

All this has cast a dark cloud over world peace!

If it were other times, Gaevra would not be so nervous, but now is the critical moment when the aristocratic group and the royal family are fighting for power. Once a war breaks out, it is very likely that His Majesty Emperor Gaevra will directly obtain all the power due to the outbreak of the war. !

This is the last thing the Prime Minister wants to see. Even if there is to be a war, he hopes that it will start after the establishment of the constitutional monarchy, not now!

The President knew about the call about thirty minutes before the call came in, and at this time he also got the news he wanted.

Mr. Trueman wrote a line on the clipboard and he read it.

"It's not that we're going to war, it's that the Penteo people don't admit their mistakes."

"If they are willing to bow their heads, we are not willing to cause the current tense situation..."
