The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

"The current situation is very unfavorable for us." Yang Duanhe said to Wang Jian.

"Yes, the Qi army is launching a large-scale offensive again. How long can our soldiers last, and can they persist until the reinforcements arrive." Wang Jian said to himself.

"This is a bit difficult. The only mobile force we can mobilize at the moment is the Celestial Army. From the superiority of the air, the ground troops cannot hold any hope at all. Zhao Jun's main force is stagnant at the end of the Eastern Railway. Go to Yan State." Yang Duanhe said.

"Well, can't Zhao Jun move faster? They don't have a cavalry unit. If we can launch an offensive from the side, our pressure will be much reduced." Wang Jian said.

"Zhao Jun is very cunning. They only send a small number of cavalry units, most of which are heavy infantry units. These heavy infantry units need to be equipped with a large number of artillery and heavy machine guns. They want to use this opportunity to equip their own army." Yang Duanhe said.

"I see." Wang Jian said.

"Then how is our heavenly army?" Wang Jian asked.

Yang Duanhe just shook his head when he heard this. Expressed not very optimistic.

"This is Major Wang Gengtianjun." A well-dressed fat man introduced by standing next to a car.

"This is our best reporter." Fatty introduced.

The major was not interested in the reporter's name, because the reporter was only in the press, and he was in the military, and he himself had no interest in the news media at all.

"Listen, this gentleman is going to take you on their plane. These planes will take the lead over the war zone. I need you to establish first-hand information. Understand? Wenyang News has already set off a group of reporters yesterday. I need You hurry up to post in front of them. Remember, hurry." said the fat man.

"Yes." The reporter said.

"Okay. We should set off. This is a military order, and it is urgent." The major said coldly.

This was urgently dispatched by the State of Qin to support the theater as soon as possible. The senior Qin Jun believes that the current military power that can be deployed is still air power, because air power has strong mobility, but the effect of air power on ground strikes. Qin Jun's senior officials have always held a reservation.

In fact, when the Qi army was encircling the Qin army on a large scale, the Qin army also dispatched planes at several airports in the vicinity of the Yan State to interfere with the military operations of the Qi army.

The aircraft of the Qin Army continuously launched interference offensives against the Qi Army heading towards Yandu, strafing the marching brigade of the Qi Army, replenishing supplies, or resorting to air strikes. But these effects are not very obvious. After all, the fighter's load capacity at this time is not very large.

But over time, Qin State was the first to arrive at another aircraft that played a major role. airship. Armed commercial airship. This kind of airship is a commercial airship temporarily requisitioned by the Qin military in order to relieve the frontline military pressure. These airships are mainly engaged in passenger and cargo transportation. However, the military of the Qin State was included in the military's use by means of enlistment.

The Qin military installed double-mounted machine guns on these commercial airships. The cargo hold was temporarily changed to a bomb drop bay, some unnecessary passenger seats were removed, fixed devices were installed to store more ammunition, and a larger space and load capacity were reserved for the machine gun.

This modified airborne airship does not perform air-to-air missions, and the Qi State Air Force did not appear with the appearance of the Qi Army’s vanguard. The air force of the Qi army encountered big troubles during the transition. They needed to dismantle all the airships to make the transition. Their weather observations, transition experience, and long-distance flight are not enough to support them in such a large-scale airship transition. In desperation, they can only rely on ground transportation for transition, but ground transportation requires a lot of bullock carts. Resources. However, a large number of ox carts in Qi State are providing frontline logistics supplies for the frontline. No extra vehicles are provided. In this way, the Qi State Air Force has not entered a combat state for the time being.

The airship of the Qi State Air Force did not enter the state, but the airship of the Qin State Heavenly Army entered the state of combat. Especially the ground effect of the armed airship. Especially powerful.

Usually the tactics are like this: Qin's armed airship will ambush in advance at a short vantage point on the road. They will release some communication personnel in advance to release the signal.

This signal means that they found a large number of enemy infantry. At this time, the armed airship will be launched in an emergency. Then they used their densely arranged twin-mounted machine guns to fire frantically on the ground.

This tactic not only achieved suddenness in a short period of time, but also occupied a commanding height. In addition, the airship can naturally form a height and at the same time have a certain degree of maneuverability. In this way, it is a disaster for the infantry.

"Our armed airship has a very obvious killing effect on infantry. And the advantage is very large. Our airship uses the equipped double-mounted machine gun to frantically fire at the neatly arranged army teams. We can say that there is no bullet. Hit the opponent. Our airship can not only shoot continuously from a high place. At the same time, it can also move forward slowly. Machine guns keep firing at soldiers who try to avoid machine guns. This feeling of rushing to kill makes the opposing soldiers feel. It's terrible."

"And the opponent has no power to fight back our airship. Our airship can move back and forth. The opponent's infantry rarely launches a counterattack in time. Even with artillery, it is difficult to hit a moving target. It is worth mentioning that The survivability of airships is stronger than that of airplanes. Even after being shot, our airships can still maintain strong lift to allow our pilots to go home. This point needs to be pointed out."

This is a telegram sent by the front-line commander to the Qin military. This telegram specifically pointed out the huge damage to the ground of the armed airship. Because the machine gun has a higher position and higher maneuverability, and the machine gun uses a double-mounted. So the killing effect is magnified exponentially. But this report did not attract the attention of the Qin military, because they focused on how to use ground power to end the battle on the battlefield.

And just when Qin Jun tried his best to support the frontline. Within the Qi army, two factions have formed.

The reason why the Qi army formed two major factions was because the Qi army quickly moved forward after breaking the Yan army's overall line of defense. Especially when the Qi army was victorious, it can be said that after entering the border of Yan State without resistance, this kind of rapid victory was formed in the opposite of occupying Yandu within three months. But at that time this kind of thinking was still controlled by Qi Jun's own intellect.

Because some senior officers of the Qi army believed that the victory came too suddenly and too soon. This kind of too fast makes them feel a trace of fear and doubt. But what happened afterwards was accepted for their ideas.

Sure enough, the Yan army sent a main force to participate in the war. At this time, the Qi army was waiting. They believed that the Yan army must have been under the command of the Qin army.

But the later result was beyond Qi Jun's imagination.

What they faced was an army that was hurriedly put together and had no combat effectiveness. A large number of fools, blind, deaf, dumb, and various disabled people and women were discovered among the captured prisoners. Some normal people have not even touched a gun. Such an army suddenly let Qi Jun figure out the opponent's trump card.

Yan Jun has no reserve forces anymore. And this kind of power has already exhausted all the resources of Yan Guo. There was nothing in front of Yan State that could resist the advance of Qi army. With this kind of thinking, some senior generals of the Qi army believed that at this time, the Qi army should move forward quickly. Strive to end the war within three months and occupy the country of Yan. Completely solve the problem of Yan State.

It was in this atmosphere that Qi Jun emphasized the rapid advance and occupation of Yan. The various units of the Qi army accelerated their progress. But there are different voices inside Qi Jun. These different voices come from the Qi Jun civilian team represented by Tian Heng.

Compared with the optimistic spirit of some senior officers of the Qi army. The Qi Jun civil official team represented by Tian Heng expressed a kind of worry, and this kind of worry has a great foundation. Qi Jun’s logistics supplies are already in a state of overload.

When the Qi army first counterattacked, he did not expect to attack such a long distance at once. It can be said that from the strategic situation, the Qi army did not make such preparations at all, but as the war progressed, the battle situation has exceeded Qi army expectations. Immediately came the huge pressure on logistics supplies. In order to provide supplies to the rapidly advancing front-line troops, Qi State had enlisted a large number of bullock carts to enter the frontline to improve support, but the front line was advancing rapidly with the Qi army. The logistical supply line pulled is getting longer and longer, and it is getting harder and harder to supply supplies.

This is just one aspect. On the other hand, soldiers of the Qi army fought continuously for more than two months. Many soldiers are already extremely tired. Start with the counterattack. Until now, soldiers of the Qi army rarely have a peaceful night's sleep. Coupled with the difficulty of logistical supplies, they lacked winter clothes. This has resulted in many attritions among soldiers and non-combatants. Qi army soldiers are advancing every day, and the road conditions are deteriorating. Especially after precipitation. It's even more difficult.

Logistics is not smooth. The soldiers are exhausted and their morale is gradually lowering. Although they have been fighting again, the morale cannot be solved by victory, and a certain amount of material protection is needed. Not only these.

The civilian team represented by Tian Heng has another kind of thinking. That is the external environment. The countries of the major war countries are seeking a balance. The purpose of Qi State's annexation of a country is to break this balance. If this balance is broken, don’t other countries oppose it? Especially Qin State. This country is not easy to mess with.
