Chapter 653 The Sea Lion Project
Toshiki Kishita nodded and replied: "Yes, this opponent is very cunning. He actually flew around to avoid radar reconnaissance, and caught us off guard!
Our radar network has a big gap, which is a big problem.”
Kawabian Masazo frowned and said, "The new tanks of the Great Japanese Empire are still too weak and there is no way to face the heavy tanks head-on. This is not good news."
"Okay, don't be discouraged! Although we were defeated in this battle, the Chinese army was also severely damaged, and we can find a lot of valuable things from it!"
Seeing everyone's dejected look, Naosaburo Okabe immediately said loudly: "This battle not only allowed us to see the gap clearly, but also verified that the new anti-tank bazooka of the Great Japanese Empire is extremely powerful and can cause fatal damage to the heavy tanks of the Chinese.
We need to speed up the production of more iron fist rocket launchers, so we don’t have to worry too much about fighting street battles and encountering wild areas with the Chinese Tiger Army!
Also, the tactics we adopted are still very effective, but the opponent is stronger than we imagined. The Imperial Japanese Army still needs to further strengthen the improvement and upgrading of tanks and fighter jets!"
After a pause, Okabe Naosaburo said in a deep voice:
"In view of the current combat situation, I suggest adjusting the offensive strategy, that is, adopting the Sea Lion Plan that German allies are implementing, and concentrating the aviation regiments of the army and navy to use the strongest means to destroy the air force of the Chinese Tiger Army.
Because only in this way can we completely let go of our hands and feet to carry out a resolute and complete encirclement and annihilation war against the Chinese Tiger Army, otherwise the Imperial Army will only lose more than it will."
“Sea Lion Plan?”
Tada Jung's eyes narrowed, and what Naosaburo Okabe said was basically nonsense, but the four words "Sea Lion Plan" gave Tada Jung another bold idea.
In June 1940, Germany occupied the entire Western Europe, and from then on all the Atlantic coasts from north to south to Spain have been controlled by Germany.
Previously, the British army lost a large amount of weapons and equipment during the Dunkirk retreat, including 2,450 artillery pieces, 6,400 anti-tank guns, 11,000 machine guns, more than 75,000 cars, and 500,000 tons of military supplies. 224 ships were sunk and 106 aircraft were shot down.
At this time, Britain was seriously injured, with only 500 artillery and 200 tanks left. The British Air Force was also greatly weakened, with only more than 1,300 combat aircraft remaining.
As for the navy, the air force blockade of the German navy and the air force, the conditions for cooperation with the French fleet were lost.
In order to conquer Britain as soon as possible, the German head of state Hitler personally formulated an action plan called "Sea Lion".
Hitler originally attempted to cross the English Channel with the support of the aviation force. Later, due to ship preparation, logistics supply and weather, he decided to force Britain to surrender simply by attacking air.
The entire Battle of Britain is actually a large-scale air raid and anti-aircraft raid in the history of war. Hitler once threatened that the key of the Air Force was enough to open the door to British defense.
Currently, the Luftwaffe is in an absolute advantage, concentrating three air force armies, with 2,669 combat aircraft, and is stepping up extremely frequent air strikes on the UK, causing extremely heavy casualties and losses to the UK.
In addition, Germany mastered the radar ahead of the original history, relying on its absolute air force advantages and radar technology to completely rub Britain on the ground, showing a one-sided crushing advantage.
"What the Chief of Staff said is very true, and I also think this is the most effective offensive plan at present. Our Army Aviation Corps is not strong enough to give an absolute advantage to the Tiger Ben Air Force. Even if you try your best, you will probably only lose both sides."
After several firefights, Kinoshita Toshiba finally realized the power of the Flying Tigers. After hearing Naosaburo Okabe, he nodded immediately and said:
"The newly developed Zero carrier-based fighter jets by the Imperial Navy are very capable of superior performance. If they can participate in the war, they will surely show their power, causing the Chinese fighter jets to be severely damaged or even wiped out."
"Soga!"
The more Tada Jun thinks, the more reasonable it makes. The biggest obstacle and threat at present is definitely the powerful air force of the Chinese Tiger Army. If it has not obtained air supremacy, it is impossible to start a war of encirclement and annihilation comfortably.
After a pause, Tada Jun looked at the Nojima Luren who attended the meeting and said, "But it is still necessary to do a two-pronged approach. It is best to blow up the enemy's airport and fuel depot through special operations, so that is the root of the problem.
Nojima Nakasa, this matter must be taken seriously. I know it is very difficult, but it has extremely important historical significance for the Great Japanese Empire!”
Tada Jun really had no better way. He had done all the calculations but still couldn't lose any rice. At this time, he could only pin his hopes on the special forces brigade.
"Hayi! We will do our best to complete this strategic-level task!"
The Nojima Luren immediately stood up and paused his head to express his resolute expression. At this time, even if there was a deep abyss ahead, he had to jump forward.
When the Japanese held a military meeting, Yang Fan also held a battle summary meeting, and discussed the new situations encountered on the battlefield today and the problems that need to be solved urgently.
At the beginning of the meeting, Zhou Hao stood up and reviewed himself in a heavy tone:
"Master, this battle was unexpectedly unexpected for me. The armored division damaged a total of 31 tanks and killed 92 people. May the Master be punished!"
Zhou Hao was not really pretentious, but felt extremely distressed. He almost lost a tank battalion in just half a day. Such a major loss was unprecedented!
"Where are no ones who will die in war? How can you not lose equipment without losing your equipment? Are you really a silly man who is a Japanese devil?"
Yang Fan waved his hand, and naturally knew that what Zhou Hao felt most distressed was the tank loss. He immediately comforted him: "The soldiers who fell into battle should give them enough honors, and the families of the martyrs should be given generous pensions.
The injured soldiers should give more condolences and care, and you must personally take care of these aftermath work!"
Zhou Hao nodded quickly and said, "Please rest assured, I will do my job after the disaster and will never let my brothers bleed or cry!"
"Um!"
Yang Fan nodded and then said, "As for equipment loss, you don't have to worry, I will allocate more new tanks to you to make up for the loss!
In addition, you must also make targeted training and tactical adjustments for the new anti-tank rocket launchers for the Japanese.
The Japanese anti-tank rocket launcher has a very close range, only about 30 meters. In the future, you can effectively prevent such individual rocket launchers as long as you are careful in the future."
Tanks and anti-tank weapons are always a relationship between shields and spears. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
Especially under the influence of the butterfly effect and plane balance force, even if Yang Fan can buy the most advanced tanks of the 21st century from the system mall, he will definitely not be able to completely avoid the potential danger of being destroyed by anti-tank weapons.
