Chapter 624 The Evolution of 624 Equipment

Beiyuan City, the outer front line.

After defending for so many days, Mirage's troops naturally suffered heavy losses.The troops stationed at the position have been changed several times, and recruits transported from Mirage Kingdom are continuously unloaded from the port of Beiyuan City every day.

Mirage originally expected to invest around 20 troops in Beiyuan City, but now it has sent at least 30 troops to Beiyuan City.

The dawn of the war still hadn't ended. Tang Jun didn't even care about Mirage's cry for negotiations, and didn't even receive envoys holding white flags.

Moreover, the new weapons that the Tang army put on the battlefield are becoming more and more fearful to the mirage defenders. Airplanes and tanks are already considered polite, and those messy things that suddenly appear and have never been seen before will always give mirage soldiers a headache. endlessly.

In the southern part of the front line, the Tang army invested in rocket launchers and assault guns, and at the same time invested in a Stuka dive bomber without a howling device.

The sound of the new bomber's dive is slightly louder than that of the Butcher fighter, but in turn increases the concealment, making people often overlook the horror of this aircraft.

What's more, the Stuka dive bomber without the howling device is faster and more fuel-efficient when flying, which is obviously more in line with actual combat needs.

Even conversely, Tang Jun has begun to reverse the removal of the device that would affect the speed of the aircraft, making the early production of the Stuka more fuel-efficient.

In fact, there are also different types of Tang Army tanks. The 3rd Armored Division stationed on the old border between Qi State and the Dahua Empire is changing to new tanks, and sending the eliminated tanks to the front line to supplement the 1rd Armored Division. [-] Armored Division.

The new tanks replaced by the 3rd Armored Division increased the armor thickness of the hull and the front of the turret when they left the factory. At the same time, the shape of the turret was modified, some internal space was increased, and an additional smoker was installed to extract the tank. Cannon exhaust from the interior.

At the same time, the brand-new tank also installed smoke-releasing devices on both sides of the turret, giving the tank more means of self-protection.

In order to simplify the model, Tang Jun still tinkered with the chassis of the No. 4 tank, because after all, other countries have not yet produced a decent tank, which in turn forced Tang Jun's armored forces to upgrade.

The original two battalions of paratroopers have been expanded into one regiment after another, the number has been doubled directly and brand new weapons and equipment have been replaced.

The uniformly equipped Type 56 assault rifles have greatly improved the firepower of this unit compared to the past: compared to power, the assault rifles using rifle bullets are obviously better than the Thomson submachine guns using pistol bullets.

As for the weakened pistol—who cares?With an assault rifle as a favorite, the pistol's sense of existence is infinitely reduced.

It was also from this time that there was a power gap between the secondary weapon and the main weapon, making soldiers more willing to give priority to using the main weapon instead of taking out the secondary weapon to show off.

The newly formed troops are also beginning to switch to assault rifles, and training has begun to use this weapon. The easy-to-produce characteristics of AK series rifles are highlighted. Tang Mo can mass-produce this rifle without much effort. The solidity and reliability of weapons also reduces the cost of using troops.

Unknowingly, with the continuation of the Tang-Qi war, the total strength of the Tang army has approached 60, which is obviously much higher than at the beginning of the war.

Although there was no real national mobilization, Tang Mo still mobilized the factory thoroughly. At the same time, he was constantly expanding his troops and equipping them with more weapons.

Every car coming out of the factory has already had its way, and the newly formed troops are not only the most primitive infantry, they are gradually equipped with more heavy weapons.

At the beginning, there were some cars. Although most of these cars were converted from civilian cars, soldiers from other countries except Tang State did not even have such cars that could not be regarded as military equipment.

With cars, more towed artillery can be equipped, and with artillery, more cars are needed to transport ammunition.

When these troops began to have assault guns, they found themselves stronger than the main front-line troops of many countries.

At least the Tang Army had a tradition of distributing steel helmets to soldiers from the beginning of its establishment, but now various countries have begun to study and discuss such things as equipping steel helmets...

The increasingly brutal war has also made the weapons and equipment of the mirage army more interesting. In addition to the anti-aircraft guns that can turn the muzzle faster, the mirage army has also begun to put mines and grenades into actual combat.

The aborigines in this world are not fools, they just don't have Tang Mo's experience and vision.Once they started thinking along Tang Mo's train of thought, some simple but powerful weapons were immediately developed.

To make up for the goblin's size disadvantage, Mirage developed a four-man clamp for loading cannonballs.And it was distributed to the heavy artillery units using 200mm caliber artillery.

In addition, camouflage nets have also begun to be used, similar to the structure of fishing nets, when in use, plants are inserted on them to increase the camouflage effect.

As a country that has already participated in the war, Mirage has also begun to actively distribute helmets to its troops.Now the mirage steel helmet that appeared in front of Tang Mo before has been gradually equipped to many front-line troops.

Even, Tang Jun can already tell from the density of soldiers wearing steel helmets whether they are the main force of the Mirage Kingdom.

Under normal circumstances, mirage troops wearing steel helmets have a higher probability of having grenades, so be careful to avoid unnecessary casualties.

More concealed military uniforms also began to appear on mirage soldiers. In order to make it harder to find them, a brown military uniform close to the soil began to be deployed in large numbers.

No way, in terms of not requiring steel or occupying weapon production capacity, Mirage's improvement speed is still very fast.

Although they still used Cyric 1 rifles, their attire had changed considerably since the beginning of the war.

Interestingly, in order to counteract the deterrence brought by the Stuka dive bombers, Mirage also added earplugs to its military supplies!

That's right, earplugs!A special tool made of pulp, used to plug ears!As soon as the Stuka bomber began to dive, Mirage soldiers would plug their ears to alleviate the fear in their hearts.

This kind of earplugs was found in a large number of front-line Mirage soldiers, and it also allowed Tang Jun to reduce the number of dive bombers equipped with howling devices... This may also be regarded as a kind of competing progress.

What's even more interesting is that the troops on the border of the Dahua Empire who were watching the battle seemed to be starting to install steel helmets.

The speed at which this kind of experience spread was even a bit unexpected to Tang Mo: his opponent improved himself faster than he imagined.

What he didn't know was that the Frozen Empire and the Lions Empire had already relied on the equipment left by the Datang Group to mass-produce more cars and more ships to equip their own troops.

Just as the Datang Air Force annihilated the invading Cyric Sniper Fleet on the outskirts of Long Island and won a complete victory, the first Liberty Ship built by Bunas that was not built by the Datang Group was launched.

Other countries are desperately catching up with Datang, they are afraid that if they slow down a bit, they will be brutally retaliated by Datang.

The more they saw the power and terror of the Datang Group outside Beiyuan City, the more motivated they were to keep growing themselves.

Mirage Saburo is secretly inspecting his core defense line, which is more than ten kilometers away from the real front line, and it is the longest-running defense line in Mirage Kingdom.

If this line of defense is lost again, Sanwu Mirage will withdraw all the peripheral troops, enter Beiyuan City and start endless street fighting with the Tang army!

Looking at the "elites" wearing helmets one after another, he was actually very satisfied.Such troops look much more energetic than those wearing soft hats in the past.

What made him even more gratified was that the soldiers who were issued with steel helmets had at least [-]% less chance of dying from stray bullets, which significantly reduced the rate of troop loss.

This is simply good news for the Mirage military, which has been passively beaten recently.

In fact, after receiving this feedback, the Cyric advisors in Mirage immediately sent the news back to their headquarters.

Then various countries began to install steel helmets. This time everyone finally knew why Tang Jun had asked his soldiers to carry iron pots on their heads so early.

What is puzzling is that when the Tang army used steel helmets on a large scale, there were no cannons and explosive grenades with such a high density on the battlefield!No one knows where Tang Jun got the experience to come up with such a fairy thing.

"General! News from the base camp!" A Mirage military officer swung his short legs quickly, came to Mirage Saburo, and handed him a telegram.

Saburo Mirage lowered his head to accept the telegram, and immediately saw a piece of news that made him laugh and cry: Tang Jun destroyed the airship troops sent by Cyric, and completely wiped out one of Cyric's fleets!
This news is almost equivalent to telling Mirage Saburo that his troops may be in danger.Once the Tang Army's fleet arrives, only God knows whether the Phantom Kingdom's navy can withstand it.

"What the hell are Chu and the Great Hua Empire doing? Are we really going to let Mirage stand alone in the front?" Mirage Saburo complained dissatisfiedly: "We need support, we need more support!"

"Urge the base camp and ask them to supply me with [-] rounds of shells as soon as possible! In addition, I want food and other military supplies!" Turning to look at the officer who came to deliver the news, Saburo Mirage spoke loudly.

He had a hunch that it would not work to count on those bastards in the navy, and in the end he could only rely on himself!
