Chapter 881 "I'm just a soldier" (4k today, 1k tomorrow)
Simply put, they have never fought a prosperous war, and have not come up with a new system or new plan for this new equipment.
Although at first glance it may seem that there is only one more type of aircraft and one or two new types of ammunition, in fact, the number of new weapons actually equipped by the troops of various countries is never as many as advertised and sold.
If there are one or two pieces of equipment with breakthrough performance, it's worth doing something for them.
The air and land sides were reconciling accounts and thinking about how to make good use of the new things. Gao Zhendong touched his chin and said nothing.
What’s interesting is that the leaders of the Defense Work Committee and the troops did not mention his name. They just looked at him without saying a word.
The reason why Gao Zhendong remained silent was that many of his ideas had been said or mentioned in the previous document "Research and Suggestions on the Use of Various New Weapons in High-Altitude and Cold Conditions", but he didn't know what the troops were waiting for.
The meeting ended unexpectedly early that day. There were still two hours before dinner, but the army comrades called for the meeting to end. They didn't even wait until all matters were discussed. They just said they would continue tomorrow. This made Gao Zhendong feel a little strange.
What is even more strange is that at the end of the meeting, the leader who presided over the meeting said, "Comrade Zhendong, please stay for a moment."
? ? Does it need to be given special treatment? But this thing itself does not go to the battlefield, so it is not easy to give it special treatment.
However, when the other comrades heard this, they seemed to think that this was normal and left quickly.
When only a few high-ranking comrades from the various military units and the Defense Work Committee were left in the conference room, the comrades from the unit smiled and said to Gao Zhendong, "Comrade Zhendong, there were too many people just now, so some questions were difficult to discuss. Now we can speak freely. There are some questions in your proposal on new equipment that we would like to consult."
Since that article received great attention, the comrades in the army must have studied it carefully. However, after reading it over and over again, they always felt that some things in it were vague, as if there was a layer of membrane between them.
Since the authors of today's article are all here, why not ask directly? For Gao Zhendong, the comrades in the army have a natural intimacy. This is a thorough family man. Since he is a family man, there is no need to be so polite. If you have something to say, just say it. If you have any questions, just ask.
"You mentioned one thing in your article, 'Use new weapons to strike at the enemy's important nodes, completely mobilize the enemy's mobilization, assembly and supply capabilities, and weaken the enemy's ability to control existing areas militarily and politically...'"
Having said this, the leader of the army did not continue speaking.
Gao Zhendong thought about it and understood that he really had to say this himself.
Theoretically speaking, I am an equipment developer. I can have wild imaginations about all the uses of the equipment, and there are no major taboos from any angle. As a equipment developer, the equipment is my own child, and I can train my own child however I want.
This is just like when Gao Zhendong read online articles in his previous life. In order to avoid 404 or 500 responses, some things could only be written indirectly, and then a vague sentence was added at the key point to confirm it. Some people cannot say some things directly.
And Gao Zhendong happens to be the one who can speak frankly.
So he laughed, and laughed very happily. This is what you asked me to say~~~~~~, so I won’t be polite.
"Leader, I'm just a soldier. My idea is very simple. Since they are enemies, we should not show mercy when we attack them. We should fight them in any way that can weaken them and prevent them from harassing us. We won't do anything that is against the will of heaven and earth. But we should still carry out conventional strikes. It may not be mature, and it may not be politically correct, but I'm just a weaponry guy, and I don't think too much."
Gao Zhendong piled armor on himself frantically.
The remaining people in the meeting room were all leaders who knew him well. When they heard what he said, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry. A private soldier? Comrade Zhendong, you are too modest.
"Well, from your work perspective, any assumption you make is reasonable. Just tell me and be more specific."
Gao Zhendong stood up, walked to a map hanging on the wall, and pointed his fingers at several places.
"My idea is to strike here, here, and here... and blow up all the bridges on these rivers. This will cut off the Sindhu people's access from the core area to their northeastern states. If the intensity of the attack is strong enough, they will lose the ability to mobilize large-scale troops to Shannan, or even the entire northeastern state, within a certain period of time."
"Haha, the area you want to attack is not limited to the SND area. You have indeed set your sights on the 'Strange' corridor. Do you want to attack outside?" The army leader laughed.
The "Strange" corridor was not originally called this, but due to homophony, we are used to calling it that. This corridor is really strange. It is the only road for the Sindhu people to lead from their core area to the northeastern state. There are other countries on both sides. This corridor is extremely narrow and runs roughly east-west. As soon as you leave the corridor, you will be blocked by a large river from south to north. If you want to reach the fertile land of the northeastern state of Sindhu, you must cross this river.
The narrowest part of this corridor is only about 20 kilometers, but the most dangerous part is not here, but on the river about 40 kilometers east of the narrowest part.
In his previous life, Gao Zhendong looked through the map carefully. 60 years later, there were only 5 bridges over the river at the exit of the strange corridor. If we extrapolate back to the present, the number of bridges would definitely not be more than this number, and it is possible that there are only half as many. In any case, it is not difficult to cut off this channel. As long as the air supremacy is firmly controlled, cutting off this road will not be easy, but at least it will not be difficult.
Especially...under the premise that he specially got targeted equipment.
Gao Zhendong put aside the other important roads he intended to attack and pointed his finger at this throat: "I don't understand other things, and I haven't thought about that much. I only think about how to prevent the Sindhu people from turning over. The simplest way is to cut off this passage!"
The leaders didn't say much, they just smiled and watched him perform.
"Once this is cut off, if the attack is thorough enough, with their repair capabilities, it means that for several months to half a year, things can only be transported by small boats. Of course, it is not impossible for them to use a pontoon bridge temporarily, but this river is wide, and there are not many sections of the river that can be built with a pontoon bridge and connected to the original road at the same time. It is also very easy to destroy the pontoon bridge again. After all, a pontoon bridge can be washed away by a big wave."
Gao Zhendong continued his solo performance.
"To be frank, I'm just a soldier. I don't know much about the laws and rules. I only know that if this road is cut off, the Sindhu people will not be able to replenish and project their forces to the Northeast for several months, and their Northeast will be in chaos! This area was originally forcibly merged into Sindhu by John Bull, and it has never really been peaceful. Once the Northeast is in chaos, the Sindhu people's supply advantage in the SND area will be gone! They are already unable to handle the affairs of the Northeast."
"I know that the Sindhu people have troops in the Northeast State, but given the nature of the Sindhu people, even if this passage is cut off, they will certainly gather the existing troops in the Northeast State with full confidence and attack us. So my idea is very simple. Cut off the strange corridor and at the same time lure and destroy their existing manpower in the Northeast State. Even if they re-enter the Northeast State after a few months, half a year, or a year, it will be too late." Zang San's temper is the kind of person who only cares about food and not about beatings. The situation Gao Zhendong said is very likely to happen.
Leaders, you look at me and I look at you. This boy is so brave!
Since you dare to say it, there is no big deal for us to ask.
"How can you be sure that there will be chaos?"
Gao Zhendong smiled: "This is my personal opinion, it has nothing to do with any state behavior. We have their captives, and there must be quite a few people from the Northeastern States... Our policy has always been to treat captives preferentially. I think education should be an indispensable part of preferential treatment."
One leader's eyes widened. This kid, does he have eyes? He can see without people being there? This guy is really smart.
“What if they fix it quickly?”
Gao Zhendong shook his head: "First, I don't believe they have that ability. Second, even if they do, I can greatly weaken their ability. Third, as long as they don't bow their heads, I can keep bombing them. As for air supremacy there, I personally think that as long as the Air Force fights with all its might, it should be able to do so under the current conditions."
He drew a few lines on the map and said confidently, "The distance from the Snow Mountain Airport to the Strange Corridor is 700 kilometers, which is just within the combat radius of the Zhan-6 modified with the LYP-6 engine. In addition, due to the influence of the border line, the combat area here is narrow. Even if the enemy builds more airports in the core area, they can't deploy many aircraft here. This further reduces our disadvantage of the limited number of airports on the plateau. The most likely way to fight here is to line up the planes and shoot them. When it comes to this, our Thunderbolt-3 has something to say."
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed at Gao Zhendong's statement of "being shot in a queue".
“Where are their planes in the northeastern states?” someone asked.
"If they had planes in the Northeast State, they would have used them long ago. Even if they did, it would be very simple to destroy them. It would be best to act first and destroy them on the ground!!!" Gao Zhendong said in a loud voice.
Too cruel! He is indeed a killing god who emerged from blood and fire. Everyone present knew that Gao Zhendong was a second-class combat hero from the battlefield of the peninsula. It would be a joke to say that he was not a killing god.
Well, very good, he is indeed the most handsome guy in our army! Some people nodded vigorously in their hearts with satisfaction.
"Moreover, from the Strange Corridor to the entire Northeastern State, it is basically divided by rivers. As long as we use the air force as a powerful weapon and make full use of our existing technological lead, I can say that the enemy will not be able to properly project its forces to the Northeastern State within a few years!"
"The enemy won't develop?"
"The Sindhu people won't be able to do that in the short term. They don't have the ability to do so in the short term. As for foreign aid, hehe, I have confidence..."
As a veteran military fan in his previous life, Gao Zhendong was confident in Zang San's equipment research and development capabilities. Relying on it alone? Grandma!
As for what the confidence in foreign aid is, Gao Zhendong did not say, but everyone seems to be able to guess it.
This comrade is really confident! But looking at his achievements, this confidence doesn't seem out of place at all.
“How can you ensure that you weaken their ability to repair bridges?”
Gao Zhendong took out the two things he had prepared.
"I prepared this for them. If they are willing to use it, I think they will be able to repair the bridge very slowly."
In fact, Gao Zhendong was very confident in Zang San's ability. They simply had no ability to repair a completely destroyed bridge in a large river in a short period of time. However, in order to be on the safe side, he had already prepared a harassment dish for the enemy after the broken bridge feast.
The leaders took the materials from Gao Zhendong's hand, passed them around, and everyone raised their eyebrows after reading them.
——Fortunately, the truth is in the hands of civilization.
Then everyone looked at the leader of the Defense Work Committee and asked, "You have these things in your hands, and you don't even know about it?"
The leader of the Defense Work Committee smiled bitterly and said, "Gao Zhendong has come up with so many new things. How can I grasp them all? I just ignore his work and wait for the results."
Not to mention that these things were made in the context of other projects, making them even harder to discover.
It's like when he was developing the Chijian-61 anti-tank missile, he suddenly came up with the Type 61 disposable anti-tank rocket launcher and the Black Mix 60 high explosive. It's really hard to defend against.
But who doesn’t like this kind of surprise?
The leaders turned their attention to some points outside the strange corridor. As veterans of many battles, they knew better than Gao Zhendong what these points meant.
Every time a point is cut off, it means that the Sindhu people will lose control of a large area. Although the SND area is so wide from north to south, there are very few strategically significant roads leading into the SND area from the northeastern plain of Zangsan. They can be counted on one's fingers.
These places are all on the main roads leading into the SND area, and most of them are within the national borders we have drawn.
"Zhendong, you are taking advantage of a weakness of the Sindhu people and you are trying to exploit it!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's their fault for being so weak in this aspect." Gao Zhendong smiled happily.
"In fact, my idea is not complicated. We can use our air force's lead to scare the Sindhu people in one battle, so that they dare not easily think of invading us again. At the same time, we can use air strikes to disrupt their control over the Northeastern States in a practical sense, so that they can't take care of themselves. Even if they have the ability to sort out the affairs of the Northeastern States, I am afraid that time is enough, and it is difficult to change it if they want to do so."
