Chapter 517 Chapter 517
Then, Tiger began to briefly introduce the strategic deployment of the Qi army: "The strategic deployment of the Qi army is roughly as follows. The opponent has assembled three main forces in the south, led by the three princes of Qi."

"The first prince of Qi is in charge of the most stressful middle line of defense, the second prince is in charge of the eastern line of defense close to the sea, and the third prince is in charge of the relatively safe westernmost line of defense." He roughly marked three areas on the map, marking one, two, and three respectively. .

After marking, he continued: "The strength of the army is also the strongest army under the command of the first prince of Qi, the second prince is slightly weaker, and the army of the third prince is the weakest."

"There is not much difference in the strength of the three main forces, mainly due to the differences in weapons and equipment and personnel training levels. The three forces all have a strength of about 15 troops, which is almost all the wealth that Qi can provide." After finishing speaking , he looked at Tang Mo.

"Isn't this what we hoped for?" Tang Mo asked curiously.

According to the idea of ​​the Tang Kingdom, the more the enemy army gathers troops to fight a decisive battle, the more in line with the Tang Kingdom's tactical style, and the easier the battle will be.

Tiger nodded, agreeing with Tang Mo's opinion: "Indeed, if these troops can be surrounded and wiped out, then our pressure in the subsequent battles will be greatly reduced."

"Then don't let these three troops go, it's best to achieve the effect of annihilation on the spot." Tang Mo smiled and decided the life and death of the main border troops of Qi State.

All the generals present stood at attention with their heads held high: "Yes!"

"You guys continue talking." Tang Mo waved his hand, signaling everyone not to restrain themselves.In fact, no one is unrestrained, because this is the first time His Majesty the King of the Tang Kingdom has visited the mainland of his country.

"On the front, the opponent basically followed the defense line layout of the previous Goblin Kingdom, with three trench defense lines, plus bunkers as support, and artillery groups deployed in the rear as support." The next thing is Redman's speech.

What he said was all about the construction of the border fortifications of the Qi army: "Based on the experience of the war between Goblin and Dorn, Cyric's military advisers have given Qi a lot of new ideas. For example, they are in many Areas deemed dangerous are mined, and in some areas there are barbed wire fences blocking attacks."

"The other party has also made some improvements in the layout of the trenches. Barracks have been arranged behind the second-line defensive positions, which has improved the rest environment for the troops." He talked eloquently, as if he had personally visited the enemy's positions.

In fact, this is all thanks to Li Ao. The intelligence agency of the Tang Kingdom has indeed inspected almost all the opponent's defense lines, and even brought back a lot of photos when conditions permit.

It has to be said that even though the high-level officials of the Qi State are already facing a formidable enemy, the corruption of the grass-roots troops has indeed reached a deep-rooted level, which cannot be changed in a short period of time.

"In order to delay our army's attack, the opponent also deployed more bunkers in the third-line defense zone, and built permanent fortifications in some areas." He pointed to the detailed line map and photos of the opponent's defense line that had been placed on the table. material.

Tang Mo looked at the pictures of the trenches that looked like World War II before him, raised his head and asked the generals, "This set of things doesn't seem to be of much use to us, does it?"

Tiger said with some uncertainty: "We are not sure about the actual performance of the air force, but breaking through the enemy's defense line should not be a big problem."

"Information shows that the enemy has deployed a certain number of anti-aircraft guns in the strategic hinterland, but the performance is relatively backward, and they are all Cyric's outdated products." Redman also opened his mouth to explain.

Li Ao also added: "Qi country doesn't pay much attention to air defense. In fact, there are not many countries in the world that really pay attention to air defense."

Loew also talked about the shortcomings of the airship: "The speed of the airship is too slow, so that it is too easy to attack the airship with anti-aircraft guns, so everyone is not very optimistic about our use of the airship to raid the Qi Congress and achieve results."

Tiger continued: "Because it can only raid at night, the airship's attack range is also very limited. In fact, it is only limited to a distance of about 200 kilometers in depth from the front line, and it is also very easy to defend."

Redman looked at Tang Mo at this time: "Your Majesty! We really want to know, is the promise made by the Air Force to paralyze all strategic targets within 400 kilometers of the enemy's territory, is it serious?"

Tang Mo squeezed his chin, but he was very confident in his air force: "Almost, I checked the situation with the air force before I came, and they can dispatch more than 300 planes to support ground operations on the first day."

More than 100 Stukas, plus more than 100 FW-190 guest dive bombers, it should not be difficult to break down the enemy's defense line, right?

In fact, Tang Mo could dispatch more planes to join the attack, but once the planes are displayed in people's field of vision, the whole sky will be different.

He still has hundreds of transport planes to be put into use, and he has to deploy fighter jets on the islands he controls and in the country, as well as reconnaissance planes and other planes to occupy pilots.

Coupled with the pilots who need to take turns to rest, he is really unwilling to put all his bets on Qi Guo in one breath.

However, according to common sense, using air power to surprise the opponent at once can indeed achieve huge results.

所以唐陌集结了100架B-17战略轰炸机，120架斯图卡俯冲轰炸机，还有110架FW-190战斗机来支援这一次地面作战。

After launching the world's first large-scale air-to-ground battle, according to the plan, more than 500 C47 transport aircraft and passenger aircraft that have been accumulated for more than a year and have not been put into use will be fully put into use.

A few days later, in the mainland of Datang, flying to the destination will become the most convenient travel option.It will only take a few hours from Tongcheng to Linshui, which will greatly save precious time.

Unknowingly, the efficiency of the entire world has been improving rapidly. In the past, only 50,000 people could be invested in a war, but now the two sides have assembled hundreds of thousands of troops!
Because it was the first time he was engaged in actual combat, Tang Mo didn't dare to talk too much, but what he knew was that the power of the modern air force would definitely exceed everyone's imagination.

Of course, with the development of the war, Tang Mo may use more than 500 planes - this is almost his entire wealth, or it is almost his entire wealth of combat aircraft.

There is no way, there are still too few pilots, and the previous secrecy cannot be cultivated on a large scale, so they can only temporarily endure the lack of talents.

But soon, with the expansion of the war, the state of secrecy of the aircraft will be lifted, and the training of pilots will become more convenient, and the scale will no longer be restricted by secrecy, and the speed of training will definitely be doubled several times.

"Since the arrow is on the string and has to be launched, it's time for us to think about it and recall the ambassadors to the Dahua Empire, as well as the envoys to Chu and other countries." Roger said to Tang Mo: "Besides, war... always has to be fought." There's a reason."

"It's easy to find a reason, as long as you find a way to make Qi Guo shoot the first shot." Tang Mo didn't think it was difficult.

So he looked at Li Ao, and Li Ao was naturally full of confidence: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty! I have already arranged for the person who caused the conflict."

"You see, Minister Li is still very capable." Tang Mo smiled, and looked at You Lin beside him: "Then recall the envoys stationed in other countries, in my name! Let them come back to report on their duties!"

Tang Mo didn't think that if he repeatedly provoked Dahua, the Dahua Empire would be patient again and again.Especially when the Dahua Empire knew that the backyard of the Tang Kingdom was not stable, and that the Lions Empire had mischievous intentions, they would definitely end up solving Tang Mo's trouble.

Tang Mo knew from the very beginning that this war would definitely develop into a real world war.Compared with the war in front of us, the trade union civil war that has not yet ended is nothing short of child's play!

The previous war only affected the Eastern Continent of the Endless Sea, but this time the war may involve both the East and West continents, and even spread to the entire Endless Sea.

However, after accumulating strength for such a long time, Tang Mo is not afraid of this war. He even wants to rely on this war to completely establish the hegemony of the Datang Kingdom.

"That's a good reason. Since Your Majesty is here, they will naturally come back to meet each other." You Lin said with a smile.She hadn't seen her lover for a long time, so she was smiling like a flower along the way.

"The safety of our people must be guaranteed! Try not to pin your hopes on the enemy's benevolence." Tang Mo reminded everyone: "Next, I will go to Tongcheng to show up according to your arrangement, right? "

"Thank you, Your Majesty! You showed up in the Tongcheng Industrial Zone and showed concern for industrial development. Only in this way can you paralyze the enemy army and make them think that we are not fully ready for war." Roger said to Tang Mo with a smile.

Tang Mo nodded, of course he knew it was necessary for him to do so.In fact, the newspapers about his inspection of the industrial zone have already been printed, and everyone in the Tang Kingdom will continue to pay attention to this public appearance, and publicize His Majesty's concern for people's livelihood.

According to the next plan, the troops of Qi State will "invade" Tang State and start a war, and then Tang State will counterattack.

As for where this counterattack will hit and when it will stop, only the Tang Kingdom has the final say!
"Then I'll go to Tongcheng. I also want to see what the construction of Tongcheng looks like." Looking at the slightly nervous ministers, Tang Mo once again signaled everyone to relax: "Mr. We... Victory belongs to us! There is no need to be so nervous! The Tang Kingdom...will surely win!"

"Long live the Tang Dynasty! Long live Your Majesty! The Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty...will surely win!" Everyone in the room raised their chins and echoed loudly.
