Chapter 839 Chapter 19.20 (Part 1) The Righteous Get Righter, the Wicked Get Worse
The Battle of Tuomu Plains broke out between March 24 and 28, 3254 of the Fire Emblem Calendar.
After Tiexing got away from Medog, it immediately sent five combat divisions south. In the era of the air force system, these single-turret combat armors are the most suitable new ground weapons for the battle rhythm, and the old-fashioned land cruisers are completely out of touch with the battlefield.
To be more specific, the three main combat divisions of Tiexing arrived at the attack position first, and the two assault combat divisions arrived at the battlefield 30 hours late. Throughout the process, Tiexing's air force has always maintained the "information suppression advantage", that is, all information concept transmission in the airspace is controlled by this side.
Since then, Tiexing has determined the new combat organization of this century.
There are three major categories of ground "division" units:
1. Assault combat division: It is still the original land cruiser, the lightest weight is about 300 tons, and the number of land cruisers is between 9 and 12.
2. Main battle division: It is composed of fifty 100-ton tanks as a battle group. This is the original light tank that has been continuously developed through technology and has begun to become heavy (similar to the large-scale destroyers in the ancient times of the main world).
3. Aviation combat division: It is a mountain giant maintenance (1,000 tons), a druid supply ship (800 tons), a mammoth tank (with a huge bucket in front to level the land, with a total weight of 850 tons.) and 36 land-based dragon guard fighters, more than 40 light auxiliary vehicles.
…The battle command system is no less than the equipment technology. This is similar to the awareness and micro-management of professional players, which often allows amateur players to win with 10% of their health…
The battle command is in the main battle division, and the commander stays in a 100-ton information vehicle to determine the position of each battle group of his side. (Responsible for strategy)
After the campaign begins, the tactical decision-making power lies with the members of the staff in the aviation combat divisions and various Dragon Guard formations. They begin to report the battle situation and make requirements for the rear firepower dispatch. How to fire missiles and how to deal with the air force are all decided by these tactical staff. (Responsible for micro-management)
As for the slowest and heaviest land cruisers, they are waiting to be arranged. Throughout the campaign, their target is those strong fortresses. When it is their turn, they will appear.
This new combat command mode of Iron Star comprehensively defeated Vaner in the next war.
Because the commander of the Vaner Armored Corps still stayed in the most luxurious, comfortable and stylish land cruiser, but such heavy units are too slow in the current combat system.
…The only way to defeat martial arts in the world is to be fast, and the command system must not be on a slow-paced weapons platform, …
On the night of the 24th, through the rapid transportation of the railway, Tiexing directly bypassed a full 500 kilometers from the north and rushed to the south line, and then launched an interspersed attack, and completed the encirclement of the fourth and seventh heavy armored groups of Versailles at the south line of 60 kilometers.
This kind of encirclement battle with weak armor against light armor, the world thinks it is an egg hitting a stone, a farmer holding a dung fork to challenge the knight, and also cited the combat power of the large battleships and big cannons on the sea against the small cruisers and small cannons.
But these people overlooked a physical factor. The sea surface is flatter than the land. If there are a lot of islands and mountains blocking the sea surface, then small ships will also be a threat to large ships.
And the land is not necessarily "flat", and the landform can be artificially changed.
The main combat armored vehicles all carry buckets. When Tiexing's peasant army surrounded the heavy armored corps of Anglo-Americans, it was dug out with buckets. This spirit of civil engineering has always been deeply rooted in the soul of the Iron Star Force. Even now that they have their own heavy industry, the skill of digging is still being carried forward.
The commanders of the three armored divisions drove the excavators to dig the earth themselves, and then planned the tactical fortifications. In two hours, they dug out three or four hundred semicircular (horseshoe-shaped) earth circles for the tanks. These earth circles with a diameter of 40 meters are distributed every 300 to 400 meters.
On the 26th, the First Heavy Armored Corps of Vaner experienced this kind of barrier.
The belated Vaner Land Cruiser encountered the Iron Star Armored Regiment. The conservative armored commanders of Vaner used 240mm caliber naval guns to bombard the Iron Star main battle tanks in the barrier bunker area, but the shock wave effect of the heavy artillery was obviously weakened a lot by the earth circle barrier.
The Iron Star main battle tanks reversed flexibly and shrank in the earth mound, raising 150mm caliber armor-piercing shells to start counterattack. Vaner's heavy armor blocked the bombardment from the front, but the tracks were blown up so frequently that it had to slow down and start conceptual field repairs.
After the Iron Star main battle armored forces were inserted, they resisted the counterattack of Vaner's army, which was known as the first-class army on the continent.
On the 26th, at 9:13, 9:49, 10:34, 11:12..., about every 40 minutes, the Dragon Guard Aviation Formation also delivered an air strike package, and a 300-kilogram-level aerial bomb was pointed at the battlefield under laser lock.
This kind of bomb is very tricky, not aimed at heavy armor, but at the joint of the turret. This is like someone playing snowballs in winter. There is often no need to be afraid of snowballs thrown from the front, but some birdmen use ice hands to pour from the collar to the top of the neck, and the little melted snow water flowing down will be chilling.
Throughout the battlefield on the 26th, Vaner's surrounded heavy armored corps attacked from the front and lost four Land Cruisers.
On the other hand, 34 main battle tanks of Tiexing withdrew from the battle sequence, and two earthen walls were knocked down! These earthen walls were piled up by Tiexing armored troops with buckets for an hour, and Vaner attacked these earthen walls with heavy artillery to create a hundred-meter-wide offensive breakthrough.
However, the Tiexing excavator behind built a new batch of earthen walls to surround the positions! This position blocking battle against the heavy armored cluster is a very classic case in the past two hundred years, and it completely announced the curtain call of the "heavy armor flow".
After 27 days, Tiexing's heavy armored regiment captured the stronghold where logistics were blocked after Vaner's offensive was frustrated. This stronghold was just a railway station, because the Vaner people did not consider slowing down the attack in advance, and lacked a station management team, so the supplies were unprotected here and piled up like a mountain. Axle and Pi felt that if they did not intercept this "express station", they would really be sorry for themselves.
This was the only large-scale naval artillery confrontation of the Tiexing heavy land cruiser in this battle. The Tiexing Heavy Armored Division formed a T formation and defeated six armored iron vehicles and the No. 012 Vaner Land Armored Squadron that hurried back to support within half an hour.
At this time, Tiexing had a decisive advantage in this local battlefield, both in terms of frontal combat forces and air superiority.
From 4 to 8 a.m. on the 27th, with the soaring iron wings in the sky and the joint attack of the ground heavy armor, Vaner's Fourth Heavy Armored Division was annihilated, and the Seventh Heavy Armored Division had only four land ships left to break through and left in a hurry.
In the subsequent pursuit battle on the 28th, the Tiexing Dragon Guard Air Assault Force and the Light Armored Division once again blocked this fleeing force, paying the price of four tanks and successfully annihilating the Seventh Armored Division.
In this way, less than a month after the start of the war, Tiexing wiped out four Vaner divisions in Medog on the northern line and two divisions on the southern line. Although the overall confrontation situation of the war could not be changed, it had already made everyone in Vaner feel powerless about the outcome of the war.
…
On the evening of the 28th, in the capital of Vaner, Boma looked at the latest "fast news" from the front line, glanced at it and snapped it shut. For Boma, it was news he didn't want to hear again.
Having been in the magnificent and solemn palace for a long time, Boma also knew that the other side's "flexible style of play" was caused by the country's high national strength and enlightened justice.
His army was obviously rigid and dull in the battle. However, there was nothing to be done about it.
In the struggle between ideologies, both sides are looking for directions that are opposite to each other to develop.
Iron Star has greatly reduced the capital aristocracy, and it is difficult for Vaner to improve the "aristocratic salon culture". Because the reformists can be slandered by the conservatives as spies with "Iron Starism" at any time. In the case of a certain skin pointing out the contradiction, right is right and wrong is wrong. If you want to blur the right and wrong, the hypocrites with a rotten heart and a straight face want to continue to "blur" and "compromise", but it is impossible.
Therefore, it is not that Bo Ma does not want to reform, but only by defeating Iron Star, those who are inclined to reform can get rid of the slanderous charge of "clinging to Iron Star" and start to let go of reform.
Let's put it this way, only when Iron Star does something wrong, Vaner will have the freedom to move in the right direction, and now Iron Star has never made mistakes. This is an ideological war.
[In the past twenty years, the gods have been constantly guiding Iron Star in the wrong and narrow direction, which is actually giving Vaner and Anglo forces the opportunity to copy these enlightened opportunities, but they were all broken by the unruly people. ]
Bo Ma looked at the map: If we continue to pursue victory now, we must do more extreme things. In that case-
Bo Ma couldn't help but think of Wei Keng's question on the Sun King battleship: "Have you ever considered justice after failure?" Yes, now this question is like a branding iron burning in his heart: Now he doesn't want to fail, and he has to "temporarily" put down his "meaningless" reserve.
Bo Ma looked at the map of the continent, and his mind recalled the scene of the radiation wasteland world he traveled through when he was a non-commissioned officer.
He looked at the withering calendar. In the coming April, he didn't know whether this country (Vaner) could continue to maintain its romance and beauty.
Boma's fingers unknowingly tore the map: even if he couldn't get it, he couldn't give it to others.
He signed the destruction plan waiting to be executed, but just like when he got up in the morning, the brain needed some time to urge the body that was lying in bed, Boma as the brain also needed time to order Vaner to go crazy with him.
Sometimes the "brain" wants to do big things, but the "body" will become very honest under various difficulties.
...The dividing line between the loser and the winner...
On the Iron Star side, in the latest electronic projection communication meeting, all the strategists of Iron Star were around the round table map.
Wei Yun gave an order to the front line: "Wait for a while, after this punch, you might as well take it back first and see if Vaner can wake up next!"
Then a line was drawn on the front line. This line was very tortuous, but it connected the points where the side had an advantage, and maintained the offensive power on the line.
Vaner is a big country, and a long-term war can mobilize huge manpower, but when the war is restrained, the manpower has been consumed by 50%, and the veterans have been killed or injured. If Tiexing does not want these veterans to play a backbone role in Vaner, he must control the rhythm of the war.
During the discussion among many people at the meeting. Su Ni said to Zheng Nian: "We don't have the ability to destroy Vaner. This war should make all interest groups and classes in Vaner sober up and decide whether to follow a few lunatics to continue to destroy. War is ultimately for peace, so that our development model will not be disturbed."
Zheng Nian: "Yes, that's right, but this war lunatic is not only Vaner, but also Anglo."
Su Ni nodded, but what Zheng Nian said next made Wei Keng headache.
Zheng Nian: "I still have a sister in Anglo, tut tut, I have to catch her and arrange a good family for her."
