Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Guan'er hurriedly nodded in agreement, and this matter will be over. At this moment, a servant's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Shuai Lin, something has happened."

Lin Yuan winked at Shen Wanqing and asked Shen Wanqing to take care of Guan'er, then he left the room and asked the attendant, "What happened?"

"Report to Shuai Lin that it suddenly snowed heavily in the Murmansk area, and the snow depth has reached a thickness of one meter at this time."

"It's one meter thick, why is the snow so heavy?" Lin Yuan was very surprised. He couldn't help being surprised. The one-meter-thick snow is a nightmare for tanks and armored troops. No matter what kind of tank it is, as long as it reaches one On the meter-thick snow, it will definitely sink into the snow, and on the soft snow, it is impossible to drive out with your own strength.

"Shuai Lin, we don't know why the snow is so heavy. According to our experts, the possibility of the enemy using weather weapons can basically be ruled out."

Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, those experts are really cute, he doesn't have such advanced things as meteorological weapons, how could the enemy have them.

Lin Yuan nodded, "If the snow hinders the charge of our armored troops, then don't charge for the time being, but stabilize the defense first. Murmansk itself is a seafood base, and there are countless fish and canned fish. We will cooperate with Ying The Swiss coalition forces will fight a war of attrition, by the way, the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces will definitely use this heavy snow to launch an attack, let our defenders get ready."

Lin Yuan guessed right. After the heavy snowfall, the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces went straight to Murmansk from the direction of Lake Inari.

In the Second World War in Lin Yuan's era, the German army once attacked Murmansk from Lake Inari. At this time, the route of the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces was basically similar to that of the German army in Lin Yuan's era.

Since Murmansk is located in the Arctic Circle, and it is now late December, when the weather is the coldest, for the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces and the Chinese army, cold weather is their biggest enemy.

The weather is like an indiscriminate, cold-blooded killer, slaughtering everyone on the battlefield without distinction, and even every piece of equipment.

In this battle, the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces invested 30 troops, including more than 20 British troops and more than 20 Swedish troops. China invested 20 troops. Most of these 96 troops were Russians. However, they are all Chinese equipment, with more than 100 TK-96 main battle tanks and more than 100 BZ-[-] infantry fighting vehicles.

The number of armored vehicles is very small. This is because Lin Yuan never thought that the UK would regard Murmansk within the Arctic Circle as a key attack direction, so he did not equip it with armored vehicles. Later, Lin Yuan knew that the UK would attack Murmansk. , It is too late to think about transporting armored vehicles on a large scale, because the railways leading to Murmansk are all backward railways from the Tsarist Russian era, and their transport capacity is limited.

Therefore, the battle in Murmansk will be a battle with low and high technical content. The low technical content is due to the lack of armored vehicles, and the high technical content is due to the need for a lot of cold protection technology on the battlefield.

Affected by the severe winter, China's most powerful air superiority cannot be brought into play. At this time, China's closest airport to Murmansk is St. Petersburg, more than 1000 kilometers away. There is nothing they can do, and Zhishi is barely capable of carrying cannons and rockets, but the cost-effectiveness ratio is too low for a large helicopter like Zhishi to carry weapons and fly over a distance of more than 1000 kilometers.

If fixed-wing aircraft are dispatched, only H-[-] and H-[-] can do it, and Sweep-[-] can barely do it. However, there is a big problem with fixed-wing aircraft dispatching strikes, that is, their flying altitude is much higher than that of helicopters, and it is difficult to find targets.

After Lin Yuan knew that the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces planned to attack Murmansk, he wanted to build a field airfield and hangars in Murmansk, but the weather was cold and the construction period was greatly extended, and the airport was still far away.

The Chinese garrison, that is, the Russian army organized defense in a village about 35 kilometers away from Murmansk. The winter in Murmansk is really too cold. It is very difficult to dig trenches in the wild because the soil is frozen. Relying on villages to organize defense is the best option. If the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces want to capture Murmansk, they must fight village by village.

The villages around Murmansk are surrounded by forests, and the forests are full of snow. The existence of these snows undoubtedly adds a bit of unpredictability to the battlefield.

At the beginning of the war, the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces gave the Russian army a disarm.

December 25th is Christian Christmas. For the two Christian countries, Britain and Sweden, this day is the most important day of the year, but the Russian army does not celebrate on this day. Although Russia is also Christian However, Christianity in Russia is a branch of the Orthodox Church, unlike Britain and other countries, which are a branch of the Catholic Church. The Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church adopt different calendars, so the Orthodox Christmas is about [-] days later than the Catholic Christmas.

The Russian army originally thought that the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces would not launch an attack on this day, but they did not expect that the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces would launch an attack on this day.

At this time, Murmansk is also in the polar night. From morning to night, the sky is completely dark. If it is in summer, Murmansk will still be in the polar day. The sun was shining brightly, and people had to sleep in the bright sunshine.

The Anglo-Swiss coalition forces chose to attack at two o'clock in the morning. In the snow, countless Anglo-Swiss coalition soldiers on sleds rushed towards the village controlled by the Russian army.

The Anglo-Swiss coalition forces made careful preparations for the battle before the attack was launched. The first thing they did was to promote skiing throughout the army and regard skiing as an important training subject. Here, the sled is much faster than human legs.

The soldiers of the Anglo-Swiss coalition wore gray and white camouflage uniforms, rushing out of the woods like a group of white ghosts, and rushed straight to the villages controlled by the Russian army. Most of the villages were in relatively low-lying places. very fast.

The soldiers of the Anglo-Swiss coalition have a high level of training, and almost all of them can shoot when the sled is sliding down. The sleds of the Anglo-Swiss coalition have also been specially designed. There are slots on both sides of the sled, and the ski poles can be quickly stuck on the sled. Free your hands to shoot.

The Russian soldiers thought that today was Christmas, so they were not prepared enough for the attack of the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces. They only left a small group of scouts outside the barracks, and most of them warmed up in the house. It is a small wooden house, which was converted into a brick house with the support of China.
