"According to the intelligence sent back by the frontline air force, the enemy's long-range magic attack seems to rely on the magic circle outlined on the ground..." Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force Butolya mentioned the news about the Magic Legion of the Holy Demon Empire in the conference room.
"Consultant Frunzberg's statement has been confirmed. We can study countermeasures for this combat mode." As he said, he walked to some hand-drawn outlines of magic arrays and pointed at them with his fingers.
A replica of the magic circle sketched by Frunzberg said: "The pilots saw groups of magicians and some large monsters gathering behind them, so they chose to bomb."
"Then our air force continued to dispatch, but the attack effect was not as good as on the day of the war. The opponent used magic to attack the air defense, and our losses were also great." When he said this, he looked at Ai Lanxi who was sitting in the first place.
His Majesty the Emperor Chris.
The combat capabilities of the Air Force have been witnessed by everyone in recent days. The dragoon harassment tactics were suppressed by radar and fighter patrols alone. The fighter pilots fought hard and were indeed worthy of the entire empire's investment in them.
With these fighter units, the Dragon Knight's air supremacy has changed hands, and the Holy Demon Empire can no longer use the sky unscrupulously. No matter how you look at this result, you can use the word "super value" to describe it.
The Army representative sitting at the conference table continued: "The artillery force tried its best to cause damage to the opponent, and the effect was very good. However, in the face of the enemy's attack, we are still in a dilemma."
He expressed his difficulty: "If we use artillery to suppress the opponent's magic, then we will lose long-range firepower on the frontal battlefield. If we ignore the enemy's magic circle, our casualties may increase exponentially."
"There are many options to choose from, but I think using new weapons is more suitable for the situation we are facing." Chris thought for a while and felt that there were many weapons specifically designed to deal with the environment at hand, so he spoke.
Minister Smith from the industrial department nodded in agreement and continued: "Yes! Your Majesty is right. We are accelerating the production of a weapon that can pour a large amount of ammunition into a target area instantly. The design bureau calls this weapon
It is a Katyusha rocket launcher. I heard it is a very good weapon and equipment that can effectively deal with the enemy."
Ailan Hill's weapon research and development department was not idle. They quickly found weapons suitable for Ailan Hill's equipment based on the Magic Empire's tactics: many weapons came from the Soviet Union, and they were cheap and powerful terrorist killers.
device.
"One brand new weapon can replace several cannons, and one rocket launcher group is enough to destroy all the magic arrays on the opponent's position." He pulled out a drawing, pressed it on the table, and showed the appearance of this weapon.
.
From the side, this is a familiar truck, with a rail frame similar to a radar antenna installed in the carriage. The structure of this thing is very simple, and its simplicity makes people doubt its combat effectiveness.
Of course, Chris knew how perverted Katyusha was in dealing with the unprotected and densely positioned magic legions, so he nodded and said: "This weapon is safer than the Il-2 attack plane, and there is no need to face the enemy's magic attack.
It is a very effective suppressive weapon!”
"Like previous weapons and equipment, mass production of this weapon is very easy. You only need some rails and set it up on a truck to create a launcher. Because the attack density is very high, this weapon does not even require precision."
Mies was full of confidence in this new weapon, so she spoke.
In fact, in addition to this kind of weapon, Alan Hill is also working hard to develop a variety of new weapons to reduce the threat to the opponent. For example, because the attack effect of the IL-2 attack aircraft is average, Chris
Work has begun to prepare more powerful bombers.
On the one hand, he began to produce the famous American B-25 bomber, and on the other hand, he also began to prepare the factory to produce the more powerful and unreasonable B-17 Flying Fortress strategic bomber.
In Chris's opinion, it would be more comfortable for you to always come to our house to cause trouble. It would be better for me to go to your house to kill people and set fire to it. He produces strategic bombers for one purpose, and that is to burn the flames of war into the heart of the Holy Demon Empire!
Anyway, the dragon definitely can't catch up with those fast and highly perverted strategic bombers, and he doesn't need to prepare escort fighter jets... As long as those bombers fly over the cities of the Holy Demon Empire and start dropping bombs, Chris feels that the war will become
Be fair.
Allowing those magical cities that have not experienced war for hundreds or even thousands of years to enjoy the storm of steel is undoubtedly a great achievement of His Majesty, the Emperor of a mortal empire.
Even if he dies in the end due to his opponent's counterattack, Chris feels that he can die without any regrets if he can become the first mortal leader to reach the heart of the Magic Empire.
From another perspective, once those magicians see their hometown destroyed by bombs, it is very doubtful whether they will continue such a crazy war.
Maybe those magicians will give up the unnecessary war, and treat the mortal empire equally under the real threat of equality, so as to realize the equality between mortals and magicians in a true sense.
After talking about the construction of the Air Force and the rocket launcher unit, Smith then talked about the production of the tank unit: "The tank unit is also increasing production. We expect to increase production to the level of 5 vehicles per day in a few days."
This speed is definitely not slow. 5 tanks a day is a full 1,800 tanks a year, which is already one-eighth of the output of U.S. imperialism back then. Although the U.S. still had to build countless warships and fighter jets back then.
, it is incorrect to compare only in terms of tank production. The production capacity of Cute Landseer can also be described as powerful.
The army commander walked to the map and used a pointer to give Chris a precise explanation: "With the reinforcements from the 1st Army, we have initially stabilized the defense line, the reserves are in place, and the losses of the 2nd Army have been recovered.
Supplement. We plan to deploy armored forces about 100 kilometers west of Higgs Nar to counterattack the ground forces of the Holy Demon Empire!"
As he spoke, he pointed at the map and said to Chris: "According to the current state of advancement, the opponent's attack will form a protrusion near there, and our tanks will raid south and north of this protrusion, cutting into the opponent.
On the flanks, try to encircle all the Holy Demon Empire troops that have invaded Higgs territory."
"Don't have a big appetite. Be careful not to eat the opponent, but you will suffer heavy losses." Chris reminded his combat advisers.
The other party immediately held his head high and agreed, "Yes! Your Majesty! We will be careful!"
Although His Royal Highness the Princess ran away from home, his wedding was postponed indefinitely. However, the good news coming from other aspects made the Emperor of Elanthir happy. The attack of the Dothan Empire was blocked by Kolya
There was also Mordeler who blocked the enemy at the Fallen River. The opponent lost more than 50,000 soldiers before they could even take a step forward.
The attack in the direction of the grassland was smoother. General Simon led the grassland cavalry to sweep across the eastern grassland, driving the Emperor Nicholas of the Grassland Empire completely out of the eastern region. General Simon, who controlled a large number of tribes, continued to advance westward, and was throwing arrows at Ireland Hill.
With the cooperation of the soldiers, they stormed the royal tent of the Prairie Empire.
In less than ten days, news of victory will come over there. As long as the grassland empire is captured, the northern area of Elandhill will become a completely safe rear area. It will provide countless wool to Airlandhill.
There is also meat to support the further expansion of the population of Ellandhill.
"Order Simon to play it slow and don't rush ahead. I'll wait for news of his victory, that's it." After Chris gave his advice, he looked to the other side of the conference room: "How is the reserve going?
"
"300,000 well-trained reserves have been mobilized to the front line. If necessary, we can immediately recruit another 300,000 reinforcements to the front line."
"However, I suggest that the follow-up troops be allowed to retrain. This can effectively reduce casualties."
"Okay! Let them leave after a month!" Chris knew that the current situation was still under his control, so he felt there was no need to let the second-line troops fill the hole and waste the precious lives of civilians.
The railway connecting Higgs is being built day and night, and the war potential of the Airanhill Empire is exploding. The battlefield situation that was originally evenly matched has now completely changed. The balance of the war's outcome is quietly moving towards Airanhill.
The empire tilted.
Even if the war in the Higgs region is indeterminate, the victory on the northern front is enough to excite the capital of Elland Hill. Investing in a mortal empire that can defeat the magic empire is for those businessmen with a long-term vision.
But there is something even more attractive.
"Is there any news about the search troops that have been dispatched to find Princess Luna?" At the end of the meeting, Chris had to worry about his fiancée, because the Minister of Defense, Archduke Castner, was still sitting on his left at this time.
Still sitting.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Archduke Castner, who had always looked ugly, stood up apologetically, bent down and said, "The latest news is that she commandeered two trucks and entered the Higgs area."
"Have someone bring her back! It's not very safe there now." Chris said calmly: "However, don't use regular troops, it's against the rules... Let my Guards rush over, and be sure to protect Her Royal Highness Princess Luna.
The safety is."
Kastner stood at attention and saluted gratefully, and agreed: "Yes! Your Majesty! Thank you very much..."
