Chapter 733 "Bad" Thoughts
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I am your negotiating opponent now." Liu Lang's sly smile made the Chief of Staff feel the urge to pull out his gun and kill this fat man with one shot.
No, to be precise, he is a genius fat man.
The Chief of Staff knew that there were probably not many people in the world who could sort out their ideas in such a systematic way. Many marshals and generals from the Kingdom of Zhouhui were still superstitious about artillery tactical concepts, using intensive artillery fire to open the road and then push the infantry forward. The battle has proved that this theory will cause a large number of casualties in the infantry.
"Okay, then tell me, what are the shortcomings of blitzkrieg? If you don't brag, I personally negotiate with the Ministry of Industry to fulfill your wishes." The Chief of Staff took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
Liu Lang's smile was extremely bright. Finally, this time, it was in vain to show off.
Liu Lang must make Zhou Huiguo stronger and stronger. Only his strength can make his former teammates stupider.
As for Xizhou, what is the matter with Liu Langmao? He is not a saint and cannot hold the entire human race in his heart. He just wants to reduce his suffering to his country and nation.
"To succeed in the blitz, you must first have: First, a strong armored force. Highly concentrated powerful firepower, fast maneuverability, and powerful survivability when advancing quickly make the armored force far more than any unit that has ever appeared in any war in history. It makes the cavalry appear completely outdated and the infantry appear extremely helpless in the open ground unless they are equipped with large amounts of effective anti-tank guns. Obviously, this is impossible for any country, because they do not have a talented commander like you, and their thinking is too outdated.
2. Air support. The efficiency, accuracy and devastating air bombing left the artillery far behind. At the same time, the artillery could not keep up with the tank's propulsion speed. Therefore, in addition to ordinary artillery, the attack group should be equipped with a sufficient number of bombers, which can quickly and effectively eliminate obstacles on the tank's propulsion road.
3. Radio. Good radio communication technology can reach every combat unit, which allows commanders to control their troops efficiently and make their air power more efficient and destructive. Radio allows commanders to advance quickly with their troops and observe the battlefield with their own eyes, fully grasp the ever-changing changes in the battlefield situation, and better use their troops instead of standing in front of the map.
4. Suddenness. Without any warning, the amazing speed and strength of the rapid advancement force and the bombardment of enemy territory can easily put the enemy in shock. Continuous sudden attacks will bring greater devastating destruction, quickly surround large-scale enemy forces, cut off their supply lines, and cause the enemy to collapse and lose fighting spirit.
I believe that you and your empire can do these elements. It is not difficult for the Zhouhui Kingdom, which has the most modern industry of this era, to do this.
However, I have to remind you. If your blitzkrieg concept does not take into account logistics, your armored forces will be paralyzed. If a blitzkrieg is launched under relatively small range, short time and good weather conditions, the logistics of the Zhouhui Kingdom is trustworthy. However, if you encounter huge depths, bad road conditions and bad weather, the logistics of the Zhouhui Kingdom, which is still using mules and horses as a means of transportation, will encounter huge difficulties, and infantry and supplies cannot keep up with the speed of the tank's propulsion.
In addition to the traditional supply of food, water and ammunition to marching troops, tanks also require a large amount of fuel and components. At that time, the losses of tanks were probably due to mechanical failures and insufficient fuel, rather than enemy artillery fire.
So blitzkrieg requires not only tanks, but also their high reliability, long enough trips, and various auxiliary trucks. On the gorgeous stage of war, the actors may be brilliant, and countless people are all known to the world, but the efforts behind the scenes are the most important. General Chief of Staff, do you think, am I right?" Liu Lang smiled and talked at the stunned Chief of Staff, while he seemed to unconsciously dip his fingers in water and painted casually on the table.
In fact, Liu Lang still kept it without saying anything. Street fighting, the best tactics for restraining blitzkrieg, turning every piece of rubble in every city into a battlefield for fighting against the enemy. Blitzkrieg will lose its main feature of rapidity.
