Chapter 363 Changes in Situation
Zhisi.

"The 4st Air Regiment completely wiped out an enemy FU carrier-based aircraft wing without any damage?!" When the brigade commander heard the battle report, he almost thought he had heard it wrong.

"Yes, Commander, we have confirmed it again and again. The radar also indirectly confirmed that the Rogue Eagle carrier-based aircraft never flew back after taking off. The First Air Regiment has indeed created a miracle! Our new fighter jets already have an overwhelming advantage over the Rogue Eagle fighter jets!" The combat staff reported excitedly.

“That’s great. I didn’t expect the new weapon developed by Brother Ren and his team to be so powerful. Now, we have nothing to worry about in the air.

Our bombers can prepare to enter the peninsula for combat. "After hearing this, the brigade commander clenched his fists and waved them vigorously, saying loudly.

At present, Longguo has not developed its own bombers, but has received dozens of the Japanese Type 32 light bombers Ki-48 and the Type light bombers Ki- from the Army Aviation.

Ki-32 Type Light Explosive (Single Shot)

Ki-48 Type light explosive (twin)

Although the performance of these two bombers of the Japanese devils is too mediocre.

The Type 450 light explosive can only carry 800 kg of bombs, while the Type 2000 light explosive has a slightly higher carrying capacity, with a maximum of kg of bombs! Its cruising range is just over km.

Compared with the Rogue Hawk tactical bomber B-17 Flying Fortress, the latter has a carrying capacity of 2000 pounds (907 kg)! And it can run more than 3000 kilometers. The difference between them is more than just the Yellow Sea.

As for the B-29 Super Fortress, it is even more on a different level. The maximum bomb load of the B-29 is as high as 9000 kg! Compared with many modern bombers in the main world, it is not inferior!

In terms of maximum transfer range, the B-29 has the ability to conduct operations across continents of 5230 kilometers.

However, in terms of bombers, since Ren Zhong had great confidence in the army's capabilities, he did not make bomber research his top priority, resulting in the fact that there are still no new models of bombers manufactured by themselves.

However, with the mass production of C-47 and C-54 transport aircraft, we have already mastered the relevant production and manufacturing technologies of large transport aircraft. The next step is to develop two new bombers based on these two transport aircraft, a twin-engine bomber and a four-engine bomber.

In terms of range, the new twin-engine bomber has a range of more than 3000 kilometers and a bomb load of 5 tons; while the new quad-engine bomber has a range of more than 4 kilometers and a bomb load of more than 6000 tons.

The latter already possesses the characteristics of a strategic bomber and will be one of Longguo’s trump cards in the future.

However, at this stage, it might as well use the Japanese to make up the numbers. After all, the power of aerial bombs is much stronger than that of artillery shells. The more important thing is that we have already gained air supremacy. Shouldn't we let the Rogue Eagle show off its advantage in the air?

We can bomb the enemy's position. No matter what the outcome is, in terms of publicity, we have defeated the Rogue Eagle again!
Compared to the jubilation on Zhisi's side.

The Pingcheng Command Center of Rogue Eagle and the General Command Center of Little Book Mike were in a gloomy mood.

Originally, two waves of fighters were to be dispatched to fight for air superiority, but after the F4U carrier-based aircraft wing was completely wiped out, the Rogue Eagle Pingcheng Command was frightened and called a halt.

Before any progress is made in investigating the secret of the opponent's sudden and mysterious rise, Rogue Eagle's air force will not be wasted on the peninsula and become scrap metal!
After all, even if fighter jets are not very valuable, pilots are very precious, and every pilot is a high-value personnel worth his weight in gold.

"General, I'm afraid we have to consider strengthening the air defense for the frontline troops." The operations staff reminded. "Now our air force dare not take off to fight, so there is no shield for the army in the air. Although there are not many bombers in the Dragon Country Air Force, they do have them. If our air force does not take off to fight, they will definitely not miss this opportunity and send bombers to bomb our positions."

"They have always attached great importance to publicity. Such an opportunity is fatal both to their publicity and to the morale of our troops."

Lieutenant General Walker's operations staff was very smart and keenly discovered the key points.

"Send a few more air defense battalions. Also, the air force fighters cannot be completely suspended. They must be ready to go at any time. I believe that Dragon Country does not have many air force fighters now. If nothing goes as expected, their jet fighters should have been upgraded. I have already sent a request to headquarters and the White House, requesting our most elite jet fighter wing to reinforce them."

Lieutenant General Walker said.

It is simply unthinkable to fight a war where the army and air force are inferior to the enemy in equipment.

In the eyes of most Rogue Eagle officers and soldiers, as the strongest country in the world, they cannot do this.

This would greatly shake the fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers below. If they found that they were inferior to their opponents in terms of weapons and equipment, then they could not be blamed for competing to see who ran faster or surrendered faster.

If you are not as skilled as others, you must admit it and not sacrifice your life in vain. In the tradition of Rogue Eagle, this is allowed.

"Perhaps, we should consider peace." The smart combat staff officer suggested slowly.

"What is the purpose of our war? It is too unrealistic to completely resolve the northern issue. There are two powerful neighbors in the north of the peninsula, and neither of them is friendly to us. No, maybe one of them was originally friendly, but now it has been forced to be unfriendly to us."

"With their participation, our plan is unlikely to be realized. We cannot cross an ocean to fight two powerful countries. If at the beginning of the war, some of our strategists said categorically that Longguo would not and would not dare to participate in the war, today, all their predictions have come to nothing. Longguo not only dares to fight, but is also very strong. At least in terms of the army, they have demonstrated their strong strength, and in terms of the air force, a mysterious force has now emerged."

"Hey, Tom, this is not something you, a colonel staff officer, can do." Lieutenant General Walker interrupted, "This is what the big shots in Washington want. The only purpose of our existence is to try our best to win every battle!"

Although there are not too many taboos for rogue eagles, but in the military, if someone is known to be spreading a sense of failure, it will at least have a great impact on his promotion.

Since Tom can work with Lieutenant General Walker in the command center, it is natural that they have a close relationship.

"Okay, General, in addition to the air force, we can no longer control the situation on the ground with our troops on the peninsula alone. We need more troops, more tanks and more artillery!" Colonel Tom said, "We also need to figure out how the enemy can carry out precise and fatal strikes on our artillery positions! If we can't figure this out, our army will have no chance of winning."

At this point, Lieutenant General Walker also frowned. Now the enemy has mysterious weapons on land and in the air that they cannot understand for the time being, causing unprecedented pressure on the front line.

Although the economy has not yet collapsed, it will not be far from collapse if effective measures are not taken.

Lieutenant General Walker knew very well that after losing the advantage in weapons and equipment, his troops would be unable to cope with the assault of the Longguo Army. This was not only a lesson learned from the 27th Brigade and the 24th Division, but was also fully demonstrated by the attacks on Longguo's defensive positions in the past two days.
