Macho Wars

Seeing Fumi sticking out his tongue at herself with a smirk, Dragon was about to inflict a cruel and ruthless "tickling punishment" on the woman who had not cleaned up. This was when the phone in the hall downstairs suddenly rang.When Dragoon heard this voice, he knew that a servant would come up to report soon, so he had to let Fumi go first.

"You bad boy wait for me!"

Dragon walked quickly downstairs. Lyudmila was answering the phone. Seeing Dragoon came down, he immediately passed the microphone to him.

"Master, it's from the Marine Corps station."

"give it to me."

After receiving the microphone, Dragon heard the voice and found that the opposite was originally Lanno Stein, who likes to drive tanks under the influence.This guy is also Dragoon's old subordinate, and he has been fighting with him, and he is now at the rank of colonel.

Dragon did not take him this time to the Far East, but stayed on the colony side to train new armored soldiers.This time I called, mainly to report on the progress of the work. Incidentally, I hope that Dragon can take some time to come over and take a look and give a word to the group of recruits who worship him.

Dragon thought for a while. The two newly formed divisions of the Marine Corps had indeed taken shape, and the commander of his own regiment should indeed go over and see.

So after breakfast at home, Dragon set off to the second division resident.

Because Tafe accompanied Yunlong to the aviation school, he was accompanied by William, the company commander and brother of the guard company.The group drove quickly to the training ground of the Second Division.

Although the division bears the title of "Amphibious Landing Force", from the beginning of its formation, Dragoon was not prepared to use them to land and land. Therefore, it took the route of heavy mechanization, focusing on high-speed assault and integrated combat capabilities. The main heavy equipment is not all tanks, but a hybrid mode, where tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and self-propelled artillery work together!

According to Dragon's vision, the first division was responsible for seizing the landing field, the third division was the reserve team, and the second division was responsible for assaults deep inland and counterattacks that the enemy might launch.

It is worth mentioning that each of the three divisions has a direct flight brigade. Dragon is not going to learn from a certain German fat man on the other side of the earth, and concentrate all the aircraft in the aviation division.

After learning that the regiment commander Dragon was ready to come and inspect, the Second Division made preparations early. 14,000 officers and soldiers and more than 1,000 armored vehicles of various types lined up in the playground. As soon as Lagon’s motorcade entered the camp, they stood at attention and saluted and shouted loudly.

"Welcome to your inspection by the commander of the legion!"

Sitting on the jeep, Dragon looked at all the energetic officers and soldiers of the Second Division and nodded in satisfaction.It's not in vain that he drew a large number of elite backbones from the first division. Although the newly formed second division has not yet started, the soldiers are full of energy, and the formation is even more imposing.

The future performance of a vigorous and energetic force is still worth looking forward to.

The jeep stopped in front of the podium, and the commander of the 2nd Division immediately led the crowd. It was Colonel Shatz, who had been the commander of the Independent Regiment for a period of time.During the opponent’s battle at home, he was promoted to Brigadier General to become Dragon’s deputy. Later, he retreated to the colony. Dragoon recommended to his superiors and asked him to take over the second division and become the acting commander. Major general.

The Eastern Empire Army is currently very short of middle-level and high-level commanders at the divisional brigade level. Therefore, many capable colonels like Shatz are promoted and finally reach the rank of general.

The two sides exchanged simple greetings, and Shatz led Dragon to inspect the troops.As he walked, Dragun asked about the situation of some troops during the training.

The commander of the Second Division was very proud of these soldiers.

"They are all very good young men, but also because of our noncommissioned officer system. As long as the recruits are not too poorly qualified, the veterans can be brought out soon. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"The equipment given to us above is average."

The new equipment currently received by the Second Division is mostly new products produced in the colony. Due to the time limit and unskilled workers, the quality of the equipment delivered to the Marine Corps can only be "good enough". Described, the level is far inferior to the products produced by the old local arsenal.

For this problem, Dragon knows and understands the reason.Therefore, he told Xia Zi, don’t worry about the equipment, first use the batch at hand for training, and seize the time to train the recruits. When the skilled workers at the factory are trained, the quality of the subsequent production batches will definitely be improved. Some improvement, Dragon will ask them for new ones at that time!

Chapter 525 Air Force Division

Thanks to the blood transfusion effect brought about by the Great Central Migration, the colony of the New World has achieved a leap-forward development in the past six months, filling most of the industrial shortcomings in a short period of time, but the skilled workers are not so. Easy and quick.

At present, the main production model of the colony arsenal is still the classic tusks series.Although the empire has developed a new main force for the next generation, the technology used by the Tooth Dogs is more mature, not only convenient and quick to put into production, but also can immediately form combat effectiveness after the troops take over.

A total of 80 colonial tanks received by the Second Marine Division were all allocated to the four combined battalions of the Sixth Armored Regiment.When Dragun inspected the Sixth Regiment, he saw these tanks. They were indeed of average quality as the commander of the Second Division said. The turrets were not round at all.

Dragon took down the problems reported by the Second Division one by one and promised them to solve them as soon as possible.

After leaving the station of the Second Division, Dragon went to the aviation school again. In fact, more than half of the pilots of the air division of the Marine Corps still under formation have not graduated.Before going to work in the Far East, Dragon made a request to the aviation school to give priority to training bomber pilots, and even some fighter pilots were diverted to fly dive bombers.

This is mainly because most of the opponents Dragoon and the others are facing at this stage do not have the ability to conduct peer-to-peer air combat with them. The Air Force needs to focus on strengthening its ground attack capabilities, while the full-time air superior aircraft appears to be on the contrary. Some tasteless.

So Dragon also made certain adjustments to the composition and structure of the opponent's air force in response to their actual needs at this stage.The entire air division has five flying wings, of which three are equipped with medium bombers, one is equipped with medium transport aircraft, and the last one is equipped with fighter jets. The main function is to provide escort for the large and medium-sized aircraft of the other four wings.

All dive bombers were organized into three independent groups, as the frontline aviation force, along with the three marine divisions, to provide the necessary support (tian) for operations.

On the aviation school side, Dragon met the pilots who were training.

After Dragon upgraded the treatment of aviation soldiers and increased publicity, the difficulty of enrolling students in the aviation school has been greatly eased, and for most adventurous young people, flying is the temptation for them , No less than Gundam on the glue guy!

In order for the school to have enough teachers, Dragon transferred a large number of war maidens, including his wife Yunlong, from the combat troops and asked them to become instructors in the aviation school.

With the unremitting efforts of these young ladies, the reserve team has continued to grow, and more than 300 students have successfully passed the final assessment and become qualified pilots.These new pilots take the first third with good grades and are incorporated into fighter and attack aircraft forces, while the remaining two thirds are incorporated into bomber and transport aircraft wings.

Each bomber wing plans to equip 80 "Flamingo" medium bombers. The shape and specifications of this aircraft are almost exactly the same as the B25 on the other side of the earth, while another heavy bomber that imitates the B17 is still being developed. At this stage, the first flight is expected in the second half of the year.

Compared with its own prototype, the Flamingo has enhanced the ammunition capacity, which can hang up to 1,500 kg of ammunition, that is, 6x250 and 30x50 two mounting options are available.But correspondingly, the voyage is weaker than B25, and the maximum flying distance is only 1,800 kilometers.

With this voyage, if you want to fly across the ocean, you must have multiple transit airports along the way.

Dragon has always had a long-term goal for the construction of the air force, that is, to build a fully functional strategic air force.But he knows that the development of this kind of thing must not go too far, otherwise it will only be embarrassing, and a big country on the other side of the earth is a bloody example.

Therefore, he suggested that Dr. Dornier take the "small steps and fast run" route, and don't have any psychological burden on the cottage. After all, the process of imitation is also learning. People must learn to walk before they can run.

It is precisely under the guidance of this kind of pragmatic thinking that Dr. Dornier and his team have developed more than a dozen airplanes, all of which are based on the design drawings and models left by the people on earth, although none of them can be called It is "independent", but it took only a few short years to successfully establish the aviation industry that has begun to take shape from scratch.

So far, the Air Force has received more than 50 Flamingo medium bombers, more than 40 Jaeger dive bombers, and 120 fighters of various types.The enthusiasm of aircraft has also allowed the Minsk Space Agency as a manufacturing unit to grow rapidly.Because in addition to the Marine Corps' own list, the Imperial Army and Navy have also shown a strong desire to purchase.

As for the airship force that used to be smashing and blasting, and thought that it was the dominator of the air, now it has become a grandson of gray.In the beginning of the imperial capital civil strife, they were disbanded by Howard over 80% of the troops because of the bombardment of the twenty-five and fifty-year-olds of the palace. It is from the airship unit.

Howard also saw that the airship was outdated as a technical weapon. Instead of spending a lot of money to maintain a large fleet of airships, it is better to have this money to build airplanes.Therefore, the current "Imperial Royal Airship Fleet" has not only lost the title of the royal family, but also only symbolically retains the scale of seven or eight ships, and its status has been completely replaced by aircraft.

Nowadays, Dragon is really in full swing on the side of the Eastern Empire, and Howard has publicly stated that he wants Dragon to take over his class.His ability and "loyalty" are obvious to all!

However, not everyone is happy to see it. The human struggle for power is like a dog can’t change eating shit. It is a “bad root” deeply rooted in genes.Even if they are not stupid and know that they need to be united at this time, they still cannot control their greed and even want to engage in internal fighting!

As the army continues to squeeze its forces, these big bureaucrats in the Central Cabinet are always worried about a question, not whether they can beat the west, but whether the army will get out of control.Therefore, in order to counter the growing military power, the cabinet government had to choose to unite with its former "old rivals" and to entangle with the remnants of the Senate that has lost power.

After all, both the cabinet and the Senate represent the nobility, it's just that the factions are different. Everyone sees each other as "the same kind".But now Dragoon, who is in the limelight, has allowed them to smell a different kind of aura. This commoner man seems to be more willing to mix with common people.

Chapter 526

Since the entire empire colony completely entered the wartime system under the order of the central government, the New World has grown rapidly and "seems to be prosperous", but it has also become more and more like a large barracks.Hundreds of thousands of young adults were drafted into the army, and factories large and small were producing military supplies, ranging from military boots and uniforms to large tanks and warships. Everything was serving the war.

Everyone knows that fighting will kill people, but everyone is preparing to fight!

This is a collective enthusiasm. Young people can always be moved by those impassioned slogans, and their brains are heated up, thinking that they are omnipotent.Those aristocratic bureaucrats and capitalists who used the media to fool the enthusiastic youth to join the army and serve the country comfortably stayed in their mansions, squandering and enjoying the wealth of war brought to them.

As the chief secretary of the financial department of the colonial government, Count Urno Sispano has been very busy recently.In order to raise funds for the war against the mainland, the government not only issued a large number of war bonds, but also racked their brains to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

After all, war is a large-scale activity that burns money, and their financial department must find a way.

Urno is not only busy with work during the day, but also attends various entertainment parties at night.Ever since the central government moved to the New World, the social circle of nobles on the colony side has been very lively.Those small and medium aristocrats are excited about the release, and many big aristocrats who could not be able to climb high, have now become their neighbors, and naturally they have to show their diligence.

And Urno’s wife, Mrs. Martha, is indeed quite skilled. Using her identity as a “Queen Dowager confidante”, she took the initiative to assume the communication bridge between the central aristocracy and the colonial aristocracy. She hosted several very successful events at home. Even the Queen Mother condescended to come to the banquet once, and the Sispano's house was so beautiful for a while.
