General Long has returned. After returning, he began to reorganize his army. In addition to various military vehicles, they also received 15,000 war horses. This is also all the war horses that can be collected so far.
Yes, in fighting in the northwest region, war horses are more useful than cars.
Although Gao Shaoyi had already implemented motorized advancement of the army in advance, there were no roads suitable for cars to travel here. Even if there were any, walking would be too slow every day. According to what they detected, cars could only move forward 20 miles per hour.
Kilometers, this speed was too slow, so General Long planned to advance in two ways, concentrating the elite troops to advance on horseback, and the remaining personnel to advance in cars.
According to the plan made by the General Staff Headquarters, cars can advance approximately 200 kilometers per day, and war horses can advance 350 kilometers. There is a gap of approximately 150 kilometers per day, but if two drivers are equipped to advance day and night.
, then the gap between us and the war horses can be kept at about fifty kilometers. If something happens, we can quickly get over fifty kilometers.
Although General Long's army has trained a group of drivers, it may not be possible to ensure that there are two drivers on each vehicle. Therefore, Guo Shuanhu removed the drivers from all the security groups in the six central provinces to come over for support.
We have enough drivers to meet our needs.
"Commander Father, this battle is indeed different from the previous one. Our cavalry used to be able to move lightly and use whatever resources we had along the way. Now we need logistics. If we don't have these cars, we really don't know what we would do.
Get this logistics done."
Long Jintu looked at the cars that could not be seen and sighed sincerely. When their army was undergoing reforms, the Suppression Army sent more than two thousand cars. They felt that they really couldn't believe it, because in their
According to my understanding, the foreign army does not have that many cars. Now these cars are just daily equipment. When the war starts, the number will double or triple.
"This is a question of thought. Our previous thoughts are no longer useful. As the prince said, if we cannot complete the change quickly, it will be a very bad thing for us. If we
If we remain in the same state as before, we will fall behind in the future."
Even though General Long said these words in front of his son, the shock in his heart was actually very great, especially in the current state, if he had not gone to Haicheng, he would not have seen Haicheng's elite army.
If so, I'm afraid General Long won't be able to say anything now.
After a trip to the headquarters of the Suppression Army, General Long finally understood the gap between us and others. Taking various weapons and equipment as an example, the gap between the security group and the Suppression Army is still quite big, especially in
In terms of firepower density, although the most basic level is the same, when it comes to heavy artillery, the gap between us and the suppressing army is even greater.
The Suppression Army has completely upgraded to 155mm heavy artillery, but the security regiment is still using 105mm howitzers. Although there are a small number of 155mm heavy artillery, the gap in quantity is too big.
"The son will set off with the cavalry first, and the father will come later."
Long Jintu saw the big flag waving in the distance, and the cavalry troops had been assembled. For their southwest warlords, the cavalry was an indispensable part, but they were all marching in the mountains. If we want to say that in such a
Being in the desert is also a big challenge for them.
"You must remember that no matter what kind of enemy you encounter, bring out all your usual training results. After spending so much money on training, you must not underestimate the enemy at this time. My father saw a truth this time when I went to the headquarters.
, that’s where firepower comes first.”
General Long gave a few instructions. His son was not a fool. He had led troops for a long time in recent years, and the combat effectiveness of his troops was also good. Judging from the training results, even the troops trained by the government military headquarters were
There are few who can surpass them. After all, their original foundation is not weak. The main thing is that they have mastered the correct training methods, so this thing will not be difficult for them.
The most important thing is that these people are not recruits. They are veterans who have replaced a batch of weapons. Various ideologies on the battlefield still exist, so the headquarters has long defined them. Although you are recruits of the security group,
Your combat effectiveness should be almost the same as that of the veterans of the security corps. Even if there is a difference, it is within 5%.
Because of this, Gao Shaoyi did not dispatch other troops into the northwest region, but specifically handed over this stage to General Long. Gao Shaoyi also felt that General Long had his own abilities, so you must give him a chance, as long as it is
Being able to prove this ability, General Long is much more than just a commander of the security forces.
Now that the Suppression Army is expanding more and more, the people under his command must grow up rapidly. What Gao Shaoyi lacks most now is senior commanders. If General Long can pass this exam, even if he still wants to stay
Gao Shaoyi will never allow this to happen to the security team. There will definitely be elite troops deployed in the northwest region. Whether General Long will lead all this or someone else will lead General Long depends on his performance this time.
.
Long Jintu nodded, indicating that he had remembered his father's words, and then immediately rode his fast horse to the cavalry brigade. Together with the original cavalry, they had a total of more than 20,000 people, and they also carried a batch of 70mm
Mountain artillery, the armed forces in the northwest region know that the 70mm mountain artillery can already do a lot of things, not to mention that this time it is not a war in the past. An agreement has been signed above, and they will just accept it in accordance with the agreement.
Of course, the telegram from the Suppression Army Headquarters also said that the acceptance this time may not be so easy. You must know that the folk customs in the northwest are fierce and many people only obey Jamur Khan in form. In fact, they still go their own way. This time we
Don't worry, as long as there is a formal unity, it will be a big victory.
General Long, who was watching the cavalry going away, was also a little worried. After all, it was the first time for his son to go on an expedition with a modern army. If he said he was not worried, it would be a lie. But in any case, this is a starting point, and his son must be able to take charge of his own affairs.
