Ballistic Silence of Special Years

"Then tell me, why did you choose to work with the United Railway from the northwest section?"

The interest of the chiefs was obviously piqued by Li Zheng again.

Shao Xianyong looked at his watch and said, "You still have 17 minutes, hurry up and finish."

"Yes!"

Li Zheng turned to the electronic map, enlarging the map of the red-white border area and projecting it on the big screen.

"That's not the case. The reason why I chose to attack from the northwest section is because it is more suitable for us to drive straight in. The middle section and the northeast section are plateaus, mostly with high mountains. Although in recent years we have developed a series of light tanks and weapons for the plateau terrain, in mobile Compared with the White Army's T series, it is more suitable for plateau and mountain operations. However, when our army currently has a weak force and chooses to attack in this area, the losses must be huge.

The northwest section is different. There are mostly plains there. Although the distance to the opponent's capital is longer than in the middle section, fighting on the plains is more beneficial to our side and can better leverage our army's advantages in mobility and firepower. Together with the iron side, It can make up for the lack of troops, not to mention that we and Tiefang have maintained joint training for many years, so there is no problem in coordination. "

"In addition, from a historical point of view, when White is invaded by foreign forces, they usually invade from the northwest. According to the current population distribution of White, the most densely populated area is the Henghe Plain. Once the invasion is from the northwest, as long as White enters In White territory, the army can almost sweep across the entire plain unimpeded. Therefore, for us, the ideal battlefield is in the northwest of White territory, not in our Tonglang area and the northeastern ZN area.

If our army can send troops from the north, advance quickly in a surprise attack, and push all the way across the plain before White can react, their capital can be captured in 3-4 days. Moreover, due to the existence of the White Desert, there is no need to worry too much about the risk of being outflanked. On the other hand, if we send troops to the central and northeastern sections, they will not only be White's key defensive areas, but also because the back of our front line is all high-altitude areas, the road and railway networks are not particularly developed, and logistical supplies will be difficult, and even if we can fully capture After going down to Tonglang, the troops rushed down the plains along the plateau and high mountains. It was difficult for subsequent support to keep up. After all, the roads in that area were all in the mountains with an altitude of several thousand meters. As a result, there was a great risk of being cut off by the White Army. Logistics and transportation risks, and even the vanguard troops will face the risk of being encircled. "

"If we attack White from the northwest through Iron's territory, there is basically no need to worry about logistics. Iron's own country can provide most of the food and clothing, and the fuel needed by the army can also be provided by Iron's army. Food and other general Supplies can be purchased directly from Tiefang locally, and the remaining weapons, equipment, ammunition, etc. that cannot be purchased locally will be transported from China by road, air, etc., which greatly solves our logistical supply difficulties."

Li Zheng's analysis of the tactical concept was also listened to by several senior leaders with great interest. They were all experienced veterans, but they were unable to find a thorn in Li Zheng's words.

After thinking about it, I felt that what the young director of the Operations Bureau said really made sense.

With the current situation in which the Eastern Front has become a mess, most of the satellite positioning system has been destroyed, and reconnaissance, positioning, and accurate knowledge are all hindered, it would be a difficult operation for him to defeat White with the strength of three army groups. Being able to hold on is already a win, let alone going straight to Huanglong.

"You can be called a young person..."

One of the chiefs smiled and nodded, and cast his eyes towards Shao Xianyong. His expression was not only satisfied but also envious, as if if he had a daughter of a similar age, he would be betrothed to Li Zheng.

"Li Zheng, there are only 8 minutes left, please briefly talk about the details of your tactics."

"Yes." Li Zheng picked up the stylus and quickly drew several strokes on his computer. The leaders saw arrows representing the direction and route of the attack appearing on the projection screen, as well as the troop deployment starting positions and tactical targets. point.

"Commanders, my tactics have actually been mentioned before. Generally speaking, they are to attack mainly in the northwest, defend in the middle, and provide support in the northeast."

"Theoretically, if Tiefang is used as a supply base, it is possible to attack the White side from the northwest and drive straight in. The options then include: 1. Go around to the rear of the Kashgar area and completely wipe out the White side's garrison in Kashmir; 2. The army goes straight into the capital, forcing White to sign an alliance under the city; 3. If the war goes well, after capturing the capital, they can push all the way to occupy the Henghe Plain, which is the most densely populated area of ​​White. Currently, our satellite is repairing the network, although the Blue side has been We are making trouble, but we will not be at a disadvantage in the space competition. This advantage will appear in 5-6 days, and our team White's action will take place in three days, which means that we can regain our advantage within one or two days after the start of the game. The White side is using the Blue side's GPS network. Our current DN-3 missiles and SJ-21 satellites are constantly attacking it. I believe that in two days at most, their GPS will also have trouble.

After White loses its GPS, our air force can overwhelm White. With Iron providing the airport, it is not expected to be difficult for our army to gain air supremacy. Moreover, the plain area is conducive to giving full play to our army's firepower and mobility advantages, and we can cut through and divide them in roundabout ways. Tactics such as outflanking can be fully applied. If there are no problems with logistics, the possibility of winning White's land battle is very high. "

"While our main force is fighting the White Army in the northwest of Belarus, our army can send a special force from Doklam to cut off the Xili Corridor and separate the Northeastern Belarusian state from the Belarus mainland. The number of this special force is not large. It depends on more than on precision. Not only must we be able to cut off the Xili Corridor, but we must also guerrilla here for a period of time to block all attempts to reinforce the seven northeastern states through here. After cutting off the Xili Corridor, our troops in the northeast can gradually encroach The seven northeastern states of the White side can mobilize their local armed organizations and even provide them with equipment and weapons. Because at this time our main force has launched an attack from the northwest, and the Xili Corridor has been cut off, making it difficult for the entire White side to look at the beginning and the end. If they are unable to respond to each other, the troops stationed in the seven southeastern states will definitely be in disarray. Coupled with our attacks and the guerrilla warfare harassment by local armed forces, the confidence of the local troops will soon be undermined, and there may even be a situation where the area is directly out of White control."

"Among the three directions, the focus is on the northwest. I don't think there is any problem at all in holding Tonglang. We have difficulty supplying there. Even if White can penetrate there, he will also face logistical supply problems. If the attack in the northwest goes smoothly , then the northeast direction only needs to make a fuss about civilian weapons and provide support on its own. I believe that the troops deployed there by White are exhausted just dealing with civilian weapons and have no energy or ability to attack our defenders. And in the northwest As long as the troops enter the capital, I believe that the White side will immediately contact us for a ceasefire and announce that it will withdraw from the confrontation. The rest after that will not be our soldiers’ business, but the negotiators’ business.”

The conference room was silent.

No one paid close attention to what Li Zheng said.

After a long time, Shao Xianyong came out to pose a problem: "If the troops from the northwest hit the opponent's heart, and White is still unwilling to surrender, do you have any plans?"

Li Zheng said without thinking: "I had already anticipated this problem when formulating this plan. In fact, the reason why it was not included in the battle plan is because it is impossible for White to not surrender based on his temper. If we are willing I believe they will accept it if their surrender conditions are a little more decent so as not to push them into a corner. Even if they don't accept it, the worst case scenario is the following two situations - the first is that White is determined not to compromise and will move the capital and fight again; the second is that White will not compromise and will fight again; It was they who desperately organized their efforts to regain the lost territory of the capital, and we were in a stalemate and fell into the quagmire of war."

"Tell me about these two situations."

"In the first case, the White side moves the capital and fights again. Since there is no danger to defend the Henghe Plain, the White government may move the capital to the Deqian Plateau area. Then our troops are not suitable to continue the pursuit due to troop strength issues. In fact, there is no way at all. If it is necessary to pursue, directly march eastward and capture the entire Henghe Plain area. After we capture the Henghe Plain, even if White builds a new center in Degan, its territory will face the possibility of disintegration. Therefore, I believe that as long as we capture the Henghe Plain, When we go down to the Henghe Plain, they will come over obediently and come to talk to us.”

"The second situation is much more complicated... If our army's attack fails to meet expectations and fails to capture their capital, the two sides may reach a stalemate in nearby areas. Or because White has a big weapon and other reasons, we don't want to White is pressing too hard. In this case, the Western Front battlefield may turn into a confrontation stage, and the key to our confrontation will depend on the Eastern Front battlefield."

"At that time, the first step is for the main force to hold back the main force of the White army on the northwest battlefield, threatening the White capital, and causing the White side to transfer its mobile corps to the northwest. The second step is to send out an elite force, with the help of air force and rockets. Under the cover of the army, we cut off the Xili Corridor and cut off the connection between the White mainland and the seven northeastern states. The third step is to send troops from the northeastern line to encroach on the seven northeastern White states and instigate the locals to break away from the White side. At this time, our strategic direction changes The northwest is the supplement, and the northeast is the main one. Once White instigates trouble in the seven northern states, they can only come to us for talks. I think negotiation is actually the art of compromise. I believe our negotiators have the wisdom to let White If you withdraw from the confrontation with us honorably and with conviction, you will no longer have the courage to collude with Lan Fanghang to deal with us in the next few decades."
