Heavy Industry Empire

Liu Tianling was very happy to say that today's National Defense Army is not what it used to be. The Shandong Theater has ten reorganized divisions, 15 people, eight all mechanized units, and two elite heavy cavalry divisions. It is the first in China to use the traditional rifle and saber with a shoulder-mounted bazooka and a 1000-caliber portable mortar. Although this type of weapon cannot be used directly on horseback, it can take advantage of the speed and weight of the horse Quickly moving and deploying, there is also a team of more than 6000 people like the Dragon Tooth Special Forces, but its combat effectiveness is extremely strong. This is not counting the team that Liu Tianling secretly sent to the northeast. A team of more than 10 people has been drawn up, and the Construction Corps has [-] people. However, Shandong Railway, Highway and River Channel Management is under construction everywhere. The [-] Construction Corps seems to be less. Even these Construction Corps are more powerful than other warlord teams. , training in spring and autumn, and strict daily management can be transformed into

There are five reorganized divisions in the Second War Zone, with as many as 9 people. They are all carefully selected young men. Many of them are veterans who followed Feng Yuxiang from the northwest. Among them, the division commanded by Tong Linge is a light armor mobile division. The troops and the remaining four divisions are slowly updating their firearms and vehicles, and the troops in the Henan theater are all veterans who can still fight well. There are also [-] construction corps, but most of them are old and weak. There is still no problem in construction. It's hard to tell.

Jia Cai said: "Yan Xishan is a little shaken, and intends to join us. I don't know what the commander-in-chief thinks."

"You are a staff officer, you should talk about it first,"

"Yan Xishan is experienced in both running the army and managing government affairs, and Yan Xishan has lived in Shanxi for a long time, and has his own arsenal, commercial and industrial base, which is no different from Feng Yuxiang who came from the northwest and has no roots in Henan," Jia Cai said.

Liu Tianling nodded: "Yan Laoxi is still very good, and Shanxi can be regarded as the well-being of the people, so let's not have any intentions for Shanxi for the time being, but Shanxi, Ningxia, Gansu, Qinghai and other places in the northwest lived under the rule of Ma Jiajun. The people are living in dire straits and hardships,"

Liu Tianling was just talking about how unrealistic it would be to attack the Northwest immediately. Firstly, the three horses in the Northwest have a vast territory, and they have elite soldiers and strong generals close to 30 troops. It would be best if they can be resolved through several battles. Once it is not resolved through a battle and the Northwest Army turns to guerrilla warfare, it is impossible for Liu Tianling to send all the main force there. , although the two restrain each other, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not join forces to deal with the National Defense Army because of some common interests. After all, there has never been any fixed friend or fixed enemy in the military. The third reason is that Nanjing is convenient, and the two sides have become incompatible , maybe when this powder keg will explode.

Texas Military Airport, where the Air Force has set up a flying squadron with [-] aircraft, including [-] fighter jets, [-] attack planes, and five transport planes. The transport planes are big triplanes with average engine performance. , the maximum load is one ton, and the maximum range is only [-] kilometers.

The situation at the airport is serious today. The squadron leader gathered more than [-] pilots, some mechanics, and ground crews into the large room next to the hangar.

Everyone didn't know what was going on, so they speculated one after another, but it was inconvenient to ask more questions.

The squadron leader said, "Commander Kang will be here in a while,"

Kang Jian is the commander of the air force, so he comes here often, which is nothing unusual, and the inspection work is not notified in advance. I don't know why the squadron leader notified in advance this time.

"Aren't you surprised, why do I know," the squadron leader asked.

"That's right, didn't Commander Kang never notify you?" everyone said.

The squadron leader said: "Commander Kang inspects the work, and the trainers of the inspection troops never inform, but not today. Commander Kang came here today to upgrade our squadron to a brigade,"

"What, that's great, upgrading to a brigade, wouldn't that add fifty more planes," everyone said happily.

The squadron leader said with a smile: "One hundred planes is a matter of time, and you will see each other immediately. This time, all the big guys will come."

About [-] minutes later, the control tower received the news that the fleet had arrived, and the squadron leader immediately dispatched [-] fighter jets to escort them into the air. Within a few minutes, more than ten large triplanes flew over quickly. Under the protection of the fighter jets, Come down slowly.

These planes are the same as transport planes, and Kang Jian got off the planes.

"Good morning, Commander," the squadron leader saluted.

"Hi everyone," Kang Jian replied.

"Commander, why are there only ten planes?" asked the squadron leader.

"I know you guys are not satisfied, do you think this is still a Hercules bomber? It's actually different. The Hercules bomber used to have a single engine, but now it has a twin engine. Although it still has the same amount of ammunition, it is fast. It is twice as fast as the fighter jets we are currently equipped with. The power is better and the altitude is higher. More importantly, the bomb delivery system has been improved, and the aerial bombs have also been changed. They can be equipped with anti-infantry bombs. One is five kilograms, it explodes after landing, and the area of ​​damage is relatively large, and the other is aerial bombs for fortifications, one [-] kilograms, each bomber can carry one hundred small bombs, or twenty large bombs, "Kang Jian Introduction said.

"Small bombs are actually more practical. I hope we will equip more small bombs of five kilograms each," the squadron leader suggested.

Kang Jian nodded. In fact, he knew the truth very well. The aviation bombs thrown by the Air Force are all physically thrown, and there is not much accuracy to speak of. Although the bombs are powerful, most of them often fail to hit the target, thus losing their original purpose.

Moreover, the artillery of the National Defense Army has sufficient cannon fodder, and it is more feasible and convenient to use artillery or tanks to deal with fortifications. Kang Jian suggested several times that the general staff should change the aerial bombs to small ones, but they did not cancel the medium-sized aerial bombs. It is clear that the air force's bombing has a wide range of uses, and it cannot be easily given up. Even if it is not accurate, it must be explored slowly.

"Small bombs are practical, but they are used against infantry, against warships, and against fortifications. You need medium-sized bombs. It is not for fun to equip them with bombers. You will start strict training tomorrow and practice bombing every day. If you are not proficient, how to go to the battlefield." Kang Jian ordered.

"Yes," the air force base deployed in Dezhou has been upgraded from the original squadron to the brigade. Although the aircraft is only ten more bombers, it is of far-reaching significance. It can not only support Shijiazhuang at any time, but also attack Tianjin more quickly. It can be said to guard the throat Got it,
