 Chapter 765 765 There are too many new weapons

"Since they feel that some weapons should not appear on the battlefield, we will take this opportunity to add some weapons that disgust us to the list. Isn't it all for the sake of humanitarianism? Anyone who is inhumane is the enemy of the world. ." Tang Mo blew on the drawing that was still stained with ink, and continued to speak to Loew.

He looked down and was very satisfied with this new fighter jet with air intake in the nose. But from the appearance point of view, it was definitely an epoch-making new fighter jet.

After admiring his masterpiece, Tang Mo raised his head and looked at Loew again: "You said there are so many landmines. What will happen if civilians are injured after the war is over? How will we clean up the roads that occupy fertile land? Isn't it very inhumane?"

Hearing Tang Mo's reminder, Loew suddenly felt enlightened: If white phosphorus bombs can be used to pull the landmines into the water, and everyone can disable the landmines together, that would be a good thing.

However, he quickly reacted and asked: "Then we... just used white phosphorus bombs to reach an agreement with the Dahua Empire... isn't it?"

Tang Mo smiled and shook his head: "We have only reached a temporary agreement unilaterally with the Great China Empire, but we have not signed similar agreements with all countries! So this matter is not over yet, and we must continue to operate in the winter. stand up."

 For a weapons dealer, he is very familiar with this set of things. Everyone pulled out lists of weapons that they didn't want to see, and banned them all together to make way for newer, crueler and more efficient weapons.

“We can put aside the white phosphorus bomb issue for now. What should be considered is the southern oil fields.” Tang Mo changed the subject and brought up the Great China Empire’s bombing of the southern oil fields.

"Although the production of new weapons has begun, training still takes time. Just relying on anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground is not enough to protect the safety of the oil fields." Tang Mo said: "If we can scare the Dahua Empire, let them stop harassing them. The southern oil fields may not be an option either.”

"It's my incompetence. If I had crossed the Zangjian Gorge..." Loew looked guilty, lowered his head and blamed himself.

"It has nothing to do with you. The war broke out suddenly and we were not prepared." Tang Mo waved his hand and comforted him. Then he continued: "It is not to put all the chips on the Great China Empire to comply with the treaty, but to delay time and let our side prepare."

"By the way, we got information here and probably got the location of the enemy's combined fleet. It's very troublesome." After Tang Mo comforted Loew, he continued to explain the task.

 “Where are they?” Loew was curious.

"North of the Mirage Kingdom!" Tang Mo didn't play it off, but directly answered Loew's question: "So, you have to prepare in Beiyuan City to give our opponents a surprise."

"Yes, I understand." Le Fu nodded. Of course he knew what Tang Mo was talking about.

Most of the submarines of the Tang Kingdom are now scattered in the central area of ​​the Endless Sea, and as far north as the Mirage Kingdom, they are only laying mines and attacking merchant ships in the South Bay area of ​​the Mirage Kingdom.

 It will take time to assemble, and a northern port will be needed to assemble and move further north.

 Hence, it is necessary to make some preparations in Beiyuan City in advance to provide logistical support for the submarine.

The Tang Navy currently has no other weapons that can threaten the huge combined fleet, and submarines are the only option.

 Wait until next year, maybe the Tang Navy can consider sending its aircraft carrier fleet north to exercise, but now they can only use submarines, a large number of submarines.

"Let the Air Force stop struggling to transport white phosphorus bombs and pull out the napalm bombs in stock... Since we promised the Great China Empire not to use white phosphorus bombs, we must also be honest." Tang Mo brought the topic back to white phosphorus bombs. On the body: "The recent bombings have all used conventional bombs. When white phosphorus bombs and landmines are added to the list of prohibited weapons, we will use napalm to send a big gift to the Great China Empire."

Loew laughed when he heard this. There are really endless new things in Tang Jun's arsenal. If both sides take out new weapons from their pockets to offset and destroy them, then the other party will probably use a eating spoon. Come and fight the tanks of the Tang Army.

He also understood what Tang Mo meant when he said that the Tang State would always stand on the moral high ground: that was its absolute confidence in its own weapon research and development. Tang Mo could guarantee that weapons beyond those bound by treaties would always be produced and handed over to the government. In the hands of the Tang army.

 In fact, the Tang State’s new weapons research and development plan was disrupted by the heroic performance of the Dahua Empire’s air force. Even Tang Mo didn't expect that the immature air force of the Dahua Empire would launch an almost suicidal attack on the vital southern oil fields.

With no ground guidance at all and no radio guidance at all, relying on crude astrological judgments and using the most backward bombers, the Dahua Empire continued to harass the southern oil fields at night.

 This behavior completely disrupted the weapons innovation plan of the Tang Air Force: the new weapons that the Air Force was in urgent need of were new, more efficient ground attack aircraft and medium bombers.

Although Stuka dive bombers can psychologically shock and destroy enemy soldiers, as the war continues to develop, this deterrent effect is declining sharply.

When the enemy has no way to defeat the dive bomber, the Stuka can indeed be unscrupulous and give full play to its advantages.

 But as the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower became stronger and better prepared, the Stuka dive bombers began to show their shortcomings such as their low speed and low bomb load. Therefore, at the end of August, the Tang Air Force received a new attack aircraft called Il-2 from the factory.

This attack aircraft has corrected some shortcomings of the Stuka dive bomber, strengthened its ground attack methods, and improved its strike efficiency.

Compared to the Stuka, the new IL-2 attack aircraft has four 20 mm caliber aerial cannons, doubling the cannon firepower!

The Tang Air Force version of the Il-2 attack aircraft eliminated the two standard 7.62 mm caliber machine guns and replaced them with two 20 mm caliber cannons of the same model.

However, the cost is not without it, that is, the original ammunition load has been reduced from 300 rounds to 210 rounds, which can be regarded as reducing a certain amount of continuous combat capability.

  The Il-2 attack aircraft can carry aviation rockets and smaller bombs, and its attack flexibility is obviously higher.

 It can be a beneficial complement to the Stuka. The Stuka dive bomber uses large aerial bombs to destroy some solid targets at fixed points, while the IL-2 can be used as a standard ground attack aircraft.

As for why this aircraft is called IL-2, the official standard is that the previous experimental model was called IL-1, so the mass-produced model is called IL-2.

His Majesty the King named this new aircraft Il, just like the Stuka, it is a matter of course. Anyway, no one knows the reason, it is just a special name.

 Another new aircraft that began to be tested in the military in August is called Junker, which is actually Germany’s Junkers 88 multi-purpose aircraft.

 This aircraft can be said to be one of the more successful aircraft designed by Germany. At the same time, with a hint of obsession, this aircraft is also a bomber that can barely carry out dive bombing.

 So when this kind of aircraft is used as a bomber, it barely conforms to the usage habits of Tang Air Force pilots.

 It can dive bomb, but it is not as professional as the single-engine Stuka. However, its bomb load is not comparable to that of the Stuka.

 Junkers 88 can carry more than twice the ammunition and fly more than twice the range of the Stuka dive bomber. This can make up for the Tang Army's lack of medium bombers.

And this kind of aircraft can be modified into a night fighter, equipped with radar, enhanced firepower, and become a very professional bomber killer.

Tang Mo selected it because of its versatility. Compared with the B-25, it was obvious that the German army during World War II had more experience in the use of night fighters.

This kind of bomber, which looks a bit ugly but has very good actual performance, can even carry two torpedoes and be used as a torpedo attack aircraft in coastal areas or a sea attack aircraft.

  If the technology is upgraded in the later stage, its Hanafang-style nose can also provide the shooter with a good field of vision, allowing it to use command-guided bombs to attack targets.

Although it was the DO-217 bomber that carried Fritz guided bombs in World War II, it is obvious that after modification, the Junkers 88 should also be able to carry similar weapons.

Both aircraft were originally tested by the Air Force as ground-attack aircraft. As a result, news came that the Dahua Air Force attacked the southern oil fields.

 Tang Jun was forced to make adjustments and slowed down the experiments on medium bombers. The factory also began to convert Junkers medium bombers into night fighters to continue production.

As a result, the medium bomber project that was supposed to equip the troops was forced to stall, the night fighter project was advanced, and the entire test became a mess.

This is what Loew heard about the true nature of the Air Force's new night combat weapon project: everything was temporarily changed. It was actually a bomber project before and was hastily changed to a night fighter project.

"Go ahead and instruct Bolton to do what I just said and agree to start negotiations with the other party to delay the time! After a month or two, we won't be too worried about the other party attacking the southern oil fields at night." Tang Mo arranged everything. After that, he signaled that Loew could leave.

With the support of radar and the secret weapon of night fighters, Tang Mo felt that the air defense of the southern oil fields should be almost stable. After all, the performance of Junkers night fighters is much better than the aircraft of the Great China Empire that performs night bombing missions.

After Loew stood at attention and saluted, he turned and walked out of Tang Mo's office: "Yes! Your Majesty!"
