Chapter 841 Chapter 19.21 (Part 1) Turning Passive into Active
In the 3254th year of the Fire Emblem Calendar, the Southern Saturn now has 600,000 combat troops.
But Chi De had to sigh after repeated evaluations. The current status of the Saturn Alliance is "serious lack of vehicle maintenance capabilities" and "serious lack of experience in using major vehicles."
The "two deficiencies" of Saturn are actually the same problem, that is, the weak industrial foundation.
Although the Northern Iron Star can provide assistance as much as possible, the equipment of industrial countries can only be truly their own equipment if they can afford it.
On the training ground, the Southern Rebellion Army was manipulating hundreds of tons of large equipment, just like a quail looking up at a goose.
The expressions of the workers in the current technical secondary education system of Saturn after operating the Land Cruiser under the guidance of technical experts from the Northern Iron Star are like those students taking driving tests in the 21st century, who are afraid that their cars will hit obstacles.
With the current quality of Saturn personnel, this equipment is obviously unaffordable. After receiving nine "heavy infantry" land cruisers, Chi De took the initiative to cut off this aid on the Iron Star aid bill and began to send personnel to Iron Star to learn.
Wei Keng: Equipment and people are the most wasteful. It is better for people to learn and come back to establish their own development strategy.
In the great uprising on the southern continent, almost all armored equipment was used very preciously by the southern rebels every time.
The technical cognition is not open, and a machine is not dared to be disassembled, which has led to superstition about the machinery of developed countries.
The innovation and breakthrough of the Saturn coalition on armored vehicles are now very superficial.
The so-called defense technology is to add a large number of metal hanging points, and sandbags and sacks can be temporarily mounted on the outer grid fence of the vehicle body. And such metal hanging points are designed as firm triangular buckles, which match the standard ceramic plates produced locally.
In the emerging industrial zone of the southern rebels, there are many production lines for ceramic baffles, which is equivalent to loading secondary defense at any time.
…When it comes to core technologies such as engines and electronic control, Saturn is now very open in terms of technology…
Saturn’s armored forces have conquered the third-level defense, which is to extend the wires and then mount electromagnetic reactive armor. Mainly to defend against missiles.
These single-turret armored forces are maneuvering on various fronts, and 30% of them can get this "third-level defense" electromagnetic protection facility. They can cut incoming low-speed rockets.
You must know that the various basic "parts" sent by the bureaucrats in Xirol are not up to standard.
These comprador regional bureaucrats can only speculate on foreign trade prices and have no way to manage production. So in Xirol, these bureaucrats can't even handle the ceramic plates of armored vehicles. In their words, the kiln factories under their jurisdiction are all "collaborative with bandits" and are not worthy of the production of the imperial army.
In fact, these kiln factories are often unable to produce at all due to lack of funds.
Whether it is Anglo or Cyrol, the shortage of ceramic armor has affected the third-level armor. After all, the electromagnetic reactive armor that is powered costs two thousand yuan per plate, and it also has a service life, so it is impossible to hang it up all the time.
The large number of raids launched by Saturn has forced these colonial troops from afar to face low-end games, and they have to cruise excessively every month. As a result, ceramic armor is needed to deal with these low-intensity wars.
The colonial military urgently asked the local military industry to provide guarantees, but the governor bureaucrats below the colonial governor did not care. These bureaucrats' attitude towards the needs of the front line in casual conversations was: sandbags are the simplest, the linen weaving mill starts weaving canvas, and the excavator pours soil into it. That's it.
This is the most reasonable solution that local bureaucrats think, but even for this simple sandbag, the local bureaucrats still have to take a kickback and raise the price of the sandbag tenfold.
…On the old and new continents in the South, both the old and the new have their own problems, but the key is whether they are willing to face them…
In 1954, when the Saturn coalition only had light armored vehicles as mechanized mobility and could not deal with the super monsters in the colonies, they invested considerable energy in these details that could improve the survival rate on the battlefield.
But this is only an advantage in details and cannot change the overall weakness of military equipment. And the enemy can easily break it by increasing the stakes.
On April 13, the South Continent Saturn learned through intelligence channels that the Anglo side was supporting the Cyrol side, and the two sides formed the "Order Restoration Alliance" (restoring the order of the colonists).
The Anglo Armored Corps has thicker armor, and the rebels have always been backward in armor-piercing technology.
Not only does Saturn not have metallic hydrogen, but it also does not have secondary attack all-nitrogen particle salt. These high-attack technologies require low-temperature freezers for storage. The most advanced ammunition technology in the rebels is only "tungsten alloy sintering and tempering" armor-piercing, and "RDX" high explosive.
The intelligence that Yurun saw was that a large number of power towers were being erected in the western port, and a super compression facility was also being built on the coast. According to the estimation of Iron Star, this is the production mode of the "metallic hydrogen" system.
Wei Keng of the Southern Old Continent had to cover his head, and this day finally came when he was the one who was "repeatedly beaten".
…The situation in 1954 was like a song to the Saturn Group of the Southern Continent, "Just after climbing over a mountain and crossing a river, there are so many demons and monsters...
Yurun frowned, and after pressing Cyrol, Anglian joined in non-stop, giving the Southern Continent rebels a suffocating feeling of being "in a wheel battle". Just when Yurun was thinking about how to open up the situation, he began to draw and erase on the map with a pencil irritably.
Zhou Yan, a young military colonel beside him, took his head off from the work of sorting out the mechanical infantry and gave him a reminder: "Yu Run! We cannot be limited to one restriction after another. If we think about it comprehensively, oppressed people are everywhere. Weak people will not be revolted until they are oppressed. The situation on the entire southern front is about to break, and you should find a direction to go all out. If obstacles everywhere block your actions, you are not suitable for leadership. uprising."
This comrade who had participated in the Southern Uprising at the age of sixteen, was suddenly encouraged by this sudden encouragement, which made Yurun a little surprised, and he couldn't help but reflect on whether he was really restricted.
Wei Keng couldn't help but smile bitterly and muttered to himself: "I am too cautious. If I couldn't find someone who is worthy of being a leader, it would really not be my turn to be a guy who is not suitable in all aspects."
After being beaten, Wei Keng strategically re-examined the situation in the south, deleted some of his conservative methods, and began to actively look for multiple breakthrough points to "dance shovel".
...The uprising was supposed to bring a sense of oppression to the colonists, but under the operation of the gods, the colonists of Wanlun found the moment when the rebels were tired, and briefly created a false situation where they were in "endless". …
On May 15, the Anglo mechanized troops advanced and began to exterminate the Southern Insurrectionary Army. The commander was Li Liangte. At nine o'clock in the morning he was standing on the observation port of the Land Cruiser, looking south.
At this time, explosions occurred from time to time along the route of the Anglo intervention army, which often affected the army's progress, but made Li Niangte sure that he had found the main force of the enemy. The commander once again looked at the surrounding environment on the platform, and there was no trace of it. The contaminated dust once again got back into the captain's cabin inside the car.
Endeavor is a young general. Of course, the army he led a year ago was also composed of gold-plated marshals and princes. In order to control this group of young men, Li Liangte often had conflicts, suppressed the opposition of the army with an iron fist, and conducted strict military assessments.
At first, Anglo's dandy disciples thought that this might be the first thing a new official would do when he takes office, and he would only use a few irrelevant things to establish his authority, but later they found out that this officer was serious. Anyone who fails the assessment will be penalized by the entire military and recorded in the files.
So these dandy boys began to protest and wanted to use domestic trust relationships to make special efforts. But in the end it didn't work out. Then there were a large number of applications for "transfer". The applications were returned and reported to be impounded, which was equivalent to the car doors being welded shut, and no one could escape.
Then the training started. Well, one punishment, two punishments of running, and three times a twenty-meter-high pole would be erected on the top of the armored vehicle. People would be tied to it, and they would drive and enjoy the feeling of flying. Oh, the height, and how bumpy the tank itself is, is much more exciting than a roller coaster.
It is up to Wei Keng to evaluate this commander. This is a rare young officer in the Anglo Imperial Army who wants to make a difference. If he is allowed to train the colonial army in peacetime, there is no guarantee that he will be able to lead the colonial army in ten years. The military power is well organized.
However, at this time, Anglo was in a terminally ill internal stage, constrained by a large number of contradictions, and could not wait quietly for strategic stability.
Hard work actually comes at the wrong time.
When trying to forcefully suppress internal conflicts, the Kungfu also needed a battle to "establish its authority" and actively participated in the battle for the southern colonies.
...In fact, from the perspective of fate, in the confrontation in the Southern Continent in 1954, both generals "lacked" preparations, but they had to fight under the circumstances...
The perspective comes before the war. At the meeting, Zhou Yan gave this speech after investigating the battle situation: Our disadvantage lies in equipment and firepower, but our advantage lies in organization and intelligence. The officers in the colonial army were superior and unaccustomed to the local environment. The colonial soldiers at the bottom were overstaffed and had only murderous intentions and no patience for work. However, we had our feet on the soil and our backs on the countryside.
We must make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, and avoid a one-time "win or lose" situation, because the enemy just wants to deal with us all at once. We must divide the battle rhythm into more detailed and more detailed divisions, and constantly use intelligence and surprise attacks, so that the enemy is tired of making judgments and has to judge our movements. Our troops must maintain "presence" and constantly and dynamically maintain their presence to make the other party want it, but never reach the critical point.
Zhou Yan's words made Yurun think differently, and then he thought about it, and suddenly it became clear~
...Wei Keng: Tsk, tsk, stop...
On May 7, the base area began to prepare a large number of armored false target forces. This type of target, which is suspected to be a "heavy land cruiser", is actually made of wood and plastic, and is covered with some iron shells. It is almost the same, only the gun barrel is made of steel. However, this barrel is just a launcher, used to launch rockets.
After these false targets were prepared, the main force, led by a heavily armored Saturn target, turned into a whole team of "heavy armored land cruisers" and began to attack. During the assault, we did not forget to "stretch the grass and hunt the rabbits" and captured some small towns and gun towers controlled by the enemy-occupied areas along the way.
The colonial comprador bureaucrats, after seeing the "large group" of Saturn's main force, would not send scouts to investigate at all, but would directly report the encounter with the main force of the bandit army.
The result was that after the Qianli special attack, the intelligence reported from various places showed that the main force of Saturn was everywhere.
The fake land cruisers (metal-assembled mobile fakes) set up by the Saturn Corps were placed in the north of Wanlun Continent. In the confrontation between the two sides' saturated firepower equipment, they could be completely seen through, because these fake targets did not even have a concept field. A little reconnaissance could pierce through them.
But this is the old southern continent that has been plundered by the industrial scissors gap for a thousand years and has been led by the bardic culture of developed areas to "superstitious about machinery" for a thousand years.
The weak combat effectiveness and weak will of the vassal army were mostly muddle-headed. When faced with the sudden bombardment of a large group of troops, they immediately ran away. Although these bombardments were only rocket launchers with a very short range, these vassal troops did not have the courage to distinguish them, and had no motivation to fight back. After all, in the mouths of the defeated and fleeing, "the enemy is strong."
So, such a feint force made the Anglo Corps run around.
Finally, in the early morning of May 14, Nuli finally identified a main force of Saturn. He didn't care where the other Saturn corps were, and decided to kill Saturn's finger first, just like a knight.
However, in the deployment of the Saturn military command, several Saturn troops that Nuri could not find on the map were waiting around the corps that had exposed their position. This was a fishing trip, and Saturn concentrated several times its troops to prepare for a head-on battle.
When Nuri's armored vehicle turned the one-meter-wide heavy track, the tail sprayed steam and water mist, and rushed towards the false "main force of the rebels", trying to fight a beautiful battle.
Then the real main armored corps of the southern rebels directly carried out a tactical siege 70 kilometers east of Nuri.
Note: When Nuri ran towards the encirclement, it happened that the battle of Takumu Plain in the northern continent ended, and the northern Iron Star launched a war against Vaner and the Iron Star God General.
