1503 Fake News!

Currently around the world, almost all countries are trying their best to avoid landing plans with no retreat in terms of strategies and tactics.

Because of the plane.

The combat radius of the aircraft is really too large. Not only is the combat radius a problem, their firepower is also very strong.

Coupled with the fortifications on the shore, landing operations would be a nightmare for any country!

The tidal flat will turn into a meat grinding factory, and artillery fire and bullets can tear all weak humans into pieces!

Just because aircraft were used in war, the shape of war changed.

Aircraft, whether for the army or the navy, are too important!

While the Federals, Gefras, and Pengeos were all studying air-dropping torpedoes against ships, the decisive factor that could determine the final outcome of a naval battle had shifted from battleships to aircraft.

When a large number of Pengeo people's sea fortresses began to be put into service, how to deal with them when they met Gevra's invincible fleet?

This question made everyone, including Admiral Gevra, fall into silence, because he really... didn't know how to answer this question!

There is no way!

He really wanted to say that!

Judging from the information they obtained from Pengeo, Pengeo's navy has stopped all battleship construction plans and is fully committed to the production of destroyers and sea fortresses.

And they have built a large number of assembly lines for the production of aircraft. Every day, many aircraft are assembled and tested, and enter a state of combat readiness.

It is said that the Pengeo Empire has trained no less than 5,000 pilots so far. In their plan, before the war begins, they must train no less than 25,000 pilots.

In the middle of the war, the number of pilots in service was maintained at no less than 30,000 at any time and at any time to ensure that their attack ends would not be broken due to lack of pilots...

They have put all their money on the plane!

It is conceivable that this huge empire may become the country with the most aircraft and pilots in the future, not to mention not only Pengeo, but also its allies?

Maybe over the ocean in the future, the sunlight will be blocked by swarms of airplanes, and the shadows they cast will be everywhere!

We are all also "empires", but empires and empires are different!

The Prime Minister took off his glasses and sighed heavily. He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling mentally and physically exhausted.

The nobles in the country have not yet completely become honest. The seemingly docile new emperor is also making small moves with the Privy Council behind the scenes. The governor of Amelia often selectively ignores the orders of the island. Do the new generation of nobles have any regard for the empire? What sense of belonging...

But now, their enemies are getting stronger and stronger, which gives him a confused feeling of not knowing where the future lies.

Why can Pengeo people stick together?

Why can they own such a vast land and population?

Why is it so easy for them to do anything, but Gaevra is harder than eating shit?

Why……

So many whys!

Not fair at all!

In the past, Gaevra could still find some advantages in naval battles. At least the Pengeo people had to pay a heavy price if they wanted to fight across the sea!

The Invincible Fleet can block their coastline at any time, and can naturally sink all those landing ships to the bottom of the water, taking those people with them!

But now, airplanes have changed this situation. Everyone knows that airplanes have an increasing impact on war.

Its cost is very low.

Hundreds of thousands each.

The cost of training a pilot is not high, as long as you have enough aircraft and enough fuel for them to continue test flights.

Even a not-so-smart person can master skilled flying skills!

In this era that has not yet extended some fighter combat tactics, the requirements for fighter pilots are actually not as high as anyone imagined.

You just need to be able to get the plane off the runway, know how to hover in the air, how to dive and attack, how to pull up and finally how to land.

For example, the training cost for some non-dive bomber pilots is even lower. They only need to let the plane fly, then maintain a certain altitude, let the bombardier drop bombs, and then return!

It just so happens that these cheap war weapons can pose a terrible threat to the only navy that Gaevra can use.

Sometimes the Prime Minister will lament how unfair fate is and how unreasonable God is!

The dull meeting did not discuss any results until the end. The only thing the Prime Minister could ask for was to research some anti-aircraft weapons faster, at least to ensure that these aircraft could not easily cause too much damage to their fleet.

In addition, they also began to reconsider the plan of the sea fortress. If the Pengeo people can build it, they may not be able to build it.

When it comes to shipbuilding, Gavra is an expert!

Of course, by the way, the Prime Minister also requested that this information, together with some of the intelligence they obtained, be sent to the federal people.

Although the Prime Minister and ministers are unwilling to admit this, they have to admit that the World Development Council and half of the world are now revolving around the Federation.

Since they want to occupy a more important position and have more influence in the international community, let them shoulder heavier responsibilities!

After this information was gathered to the Federal Ministry of Defense, the Federal Ministry of Defense also attached great importance to it and immediately convened a high-level meeting.

However, the atmosphere of this meeting was much more relaxed than the dull atmosphere of Gaevra.

"These do not pose a threat to us!"

Those who spoke were senior officers from the Strategic Command. Generals sometimes... are just the ones responsible for making choices and decisions. It is these officers who really do the work.

You can't ask a veteran general in his fifties or sixties to know everything. If they can make correct enough judgments in war, they are responsible enough.

So when the officer stood up to answer the President's question, everyone was looking at him to see how he would explain.

The senior young officer walked up to a projector. He took a projection card and inserted it into the projector. Some photos and pictures suddenly appeared on the screen behind him.

"First of all, the Ministry of National Defense's 'Midway' plan has been basically completed. We have controlled 57 important islands in the Eastern Ocean and have built defenses on them."

"These islands were built as 'nails' planted in the Eastern Ocean. If the Pengeo people didn't care about these nails continuing to penetrate deeper, they would become a 'hive'."

"There are airports on each island that can provide take-off and landing of aircraft. Once trapped in the siege of these islands, any fleet will only end up destroyed."

"But it is not easy to remove these nails. We also have enough aircraft for defense, and there will be many shore artillery on the island to provide fire support..."

As he introduced, he kept switching the projection cards, and islands with strange shapes appeared in front of people.

To say that those islands are small islands is better to say that they are concrete fortifications standing on the Eastern Ocean!

The concrete, which is often several meters thick, and the deeper underground bunkers are enough to ensure the attack and survivability of each island.

The President and the generals nodded, especially the President, who pointed to the projection screen, "I remember this project was proposed by Lynch?"

The officer nodded in agreement, "Mr. Lynch proposed the Midway Island plan. He connected the islands in the entire Eastern Ocean. Our fleet can find supply points at any time, and can also use at least two to three fixed islands as defense at any time." fortifications, a defensive counterattack, or an attack on the enemy fleet.”

The President nodded repeatedly. He remembered this because Congress did not like the plan very much at the time. They felt that Lynch was cheating money.

But the military felt it was valuable and held two more hearings. In the end, the military convinced the bosses in Congress. For this reason, Lynch took an extra sum of money to acquire a leather bag company.

The cost of the acquisition flowed into the accounts of the senators in the form of dividends through the original holding fund of the leather bag company.

You got a big project. This is the face given to you by the congressman. You have to be grateful.

Only those who know how to be grateful can live a good life!

The officer continued to introduce.

"In addition, the current parameter performance of Blackstone Aviation's fighter jets in all aspects is at least above the data we have obtained."

"To put it simply, if we send out one fighter jet, we can at least contain or even destroy two or more of the opponent's fighter jets. The only thing we lack now may be quantity."

"Not long ago we gave Lynch a big order..."

He is talking about the aircraft order worth 2 billion. These aircraft are continuously coming off the assembly line and then being installed.

Mr. President frowned at this time, "But from the information I have, the Pengeos plan to maintain at least 20,000 aircraft that can enter combat status at any time during the war, but we only have a few thousand." shelf……"

The comparison of this figure is really too different.

At this time, the officer was ready to say something, such as saying that this was "false intelligence" or something like that.

He didn't believe that the Pengeo people could have so many aircraft in service at the same time. You must know that although the cost of this thing is cheap, it may not be able to sustain it if the number is large.

According to the current quotation provided by Lynch, 2,000 aircraft are already 2 billion.

If this number is increased tenfold, it would be 20 billion.

You also have to consider the tens of thousands of pilots you need to equip, as well as various other extension costs. Even the federation will not be able to sustain the entire plan. This is obviously false information.

The Strategic Command analyzed that this is likely to be a smoke bomb released by the Pengeo people to increase pressure on various countries!

But before he could say anything, he was stopped by a lieutenant general...
