Chapter 406: The effect of the exercise

You can search for the latest chapters in Baidu for "Super Emperors Search Novels of the Late Qing Dynasty (www.soxscc.com)"!On September 5, 1905, it has been one year since World War I broke out.

From the north of the Tianshan Mountains to the north of Ulaanbaatar, Lake Baikal, and the border line west of Chita thousands of kilometers, a total of 800,000 troops from the four armies were put into military exercises.

This time the exercise brought Mao Zi to the enemy and sent urgent telegrams to St. Petersburg.Mao Zi was also distraught, immediately contacted Gili Gaul, and was still preparing to deploy troops to the Far East for reinforcements.

This really shocked the Allies. After all, they are at a disadvantage in the war with the Allies. If the Qing Dynasty joins God knows what will happen.

However, they clarified the truth of the matter after issuing a diplomatic note. Daqing only conducted a military exercise. Except for occasional bullets and artillery shells flying across the boundary, no soldiers entered the hairball.

In this case, although they were angry at Da Qing's provocative behavior, for the sake of the overall situation, they were still forced to press Maozi's request to send troops together, asking them to do their guard work.

It's obviously unwise to start a war at this juncture, it's just a painless verbal threat.Without the support of Gili Gaul, Mao Zi could only shrink the defense while mobilizing a part of the army to support him, but at this time even tyrannical like the czar did not dare to provoke.

And this time the exercise made Gili Gaul and other countries more vigilant, and it also made them even more jealous. They actually used airplanes in this exercise, and there was also a monster covered in iron that could move.

Through Maozi’s simple description, they can know that this monster is a mobile fortress on land. They quickly thought of the terrifying effect of this iron box with artillery in the battle of positions.

And the plane has already surpassed the scope of Western countries that can only take off for a short time for investigation, and can already carry hundreds of kilograms of bombs. They don't understand what kind of engine has been developed to drive these two things... …

The tank is still an experimental tank, weighing up to 12 tons, but it can only be equipped with a 37.5MM artillery and a heavy machine gun, but it is much stronger than the water tank developed and put on the battlefield by Gran.

At least his armor is much more perfect than theirs, enough to withstand 75MM howitzers and mortars, and reach a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.

In the past, in the battle of positions, the defense line composed of trenches, machine gun points, bunkers, and barbed wire could only be shot with infantry after the bombardment of artillery over and over again, and this would have to bear huge casualties, and the strength on both sides Under the circumstances, the offensive party is undoubtedly a tragedy.

However, if there are sharp weapons such as tanks, the result will be different. They can go forward with enemy machine guns, rifles and even grenade grenades, easily lead armored vehicles and soldiers behind to rush, break through the barbed wire, and cross the gully to carry the enemy away.

All you need to worry about is the large-caliber artillery that is difficult to hit him and the small steel cannon that can only hit its vital parts.The relatively flexible mortar is also difficult to hit his critical position due to ballistics, unless it is a mortar of 105mm or 120mm caliber.

Of course, the performance of the current tanks is still very poor. There have been many problems in this large-scale exercise. After the twenty-two tanks have traveled 50 kilometers, only eleven are left, and they are still prone to mechanical failures. The armored country is thin, the firepower is too small, and the track protection is not in place.

The main problem here is the performance of the engine. The engine with a high thermal energy conversion ratio has not yet come out and needs continuous experimentation and improvement.

Otherwise, the tank not only plays a role in positional warfare, but also optimizes the armor and stability of the artillery. After the speed commission is increased, it will become a torrent of steel, using its maneuverability to rapidly advance, intersect, and surprise.

In terms of aircraft, the Qing Dynasty can carry a load of 200 to 500 kilograms. With this load capacity, the fighter can only be equipped with a machine gun, and the bomber can only carry 200 kilograms of bombs to strike within 100 kilometers.

But it is also much better than those in the West that can only barely be used for reconnaissance. As for the airship of the main air force in the West, it is simply a scum of five combat effectiveness in front of the aircraft.

Of course, the current aircraft still have more problems than tanks that need to be solved. It is not just an engine problem. It wants to fly farther, faster, and higher, and it must be able to carry a lot of aviation bombs and machine gun ammunition.Many difficulties need to be overcome and even perfected aerodynamic theory.

But Wang Guangxu clearly understands that the air force will be one of the decisive factors in determining future wars. Whether on the sea or on land, once mastering the air supremacy, he will take the initiative in the entire battle.

The army used more than 800,000 troops to conduct large-scale military exercises on the border of Daqing Maoqiu.

This made the situation between Daqing Maoqiu and the Allied Powers become severe, as if a war was about to start.

If it really launches an attack on Maozi, the Will Army will undoubtedly be very welcome. At that time, Gili Gaul must declare war on it, and the scale of the entire war will expand. Gran’s Australia and India, and even Suez Canal Soy Milk will face directly.

In St. Petersburg, the capital of Maoqi, Tsar Nicholas II called Maozi’s military and political ministers to discuss countermeasures.

"These damn monkeys, they dare to provoke the empire, do they really want to go to war? The great old Maoqiu empire will make them pay."

Nicholas II was in anger and shame, and his behavior humiliated him.That country is starting to find fault again, and now the spearhead is actually directed at them, obviously they are treated as soft persimmons...
