Chapter 1237: 1238Good suggestions
In fact, there are some graduates who have studied in the Tang Empire among the armies of various countries around the world, and these graduates have indeed brought modern naval technology back to their home countries.
This is part of the conscious and planned technology diffusion of the Tang Empire. They need such talents to exert influence in their respective countries, and ultimately influence the decisions of various countries, making decisions that are beneficial to the Tang Empire in terms of purchasing weapons and equipment, promoting commanders, etc. s Choice.
In fact, the Tang Empire did achieve what it wanted. The middle and low-level commanders from all over the world are all fans of the Tang Empire, and they all yearn to make their own armies as invincible as the Tang Empire's army. teacher.
It is a pity that the military budgets of various countries are limited, and they do not have as terrifying a money-making machine as the Tang Empire. Therefore, these military commanders who returned to their respective countries can only do their ashram in the snail shell, chasing the dream of a modern and powerful army bit by bit.
Compared with veteran generals and aristocratic commanders from various countries, these officers who studied abroad in the Tang Dynasty have very obvious advantages. They are more advanced, understand modern military technology, and have their own understanding of the use of weapons and equipment.
Similarly, their disadvantages are also very obvious: because they always talk about the Tang Empire when they open and close their mouths, they cannot gain the trust of the rulers of various countries at all, so they cannot get independent positions in each army. .
In other words, most of the overseas students who have been to the Tang Dynasty serve as staff officers in the armies of various countries, with a deputy position at most. Most of them end up as middle-level commanders.
Everyone has a clear understanding of this: If you choose to study in the Tang Empire, the advantage is that you will be promoted quickly, because if you are capable and capable, you will definitely be at least a battalion-level cadre when you come back. But... the most you can do is be a regiment commander and division commander, no matter how high you are, don't even think about it.
If you don't go, you can only get seniority in the military. Promotion may be much slower at the beginning, but because of loyalty, trust is higher. If you are lucky, you can become the commander of the army. The upper limit is It is much higher than that of the overseas students.
Then how to choose depends entirely on your own ideas. Under normal circumstances, people with little background would choose to study abroad in the Tang Empire, which would have a higher starting point; while nobles would prefer to have Olympic qualifications, so that the upper limit would be guaranteed.
Over time, this has created a confrontation between the "civilian faction" and the "aristocratic faction" in the military of various countries. The two sides are in the same position, look down on each other, and often cause troubles.
So when he heard the young staff officer express his opinion, the noble officer on the side immediately laughed and said sarcastically: "After all, aren't you cowardly and afraid of death? As a staff officer of the empire, what you should do It’s about perfecting the plan, not making excuses for being timid!”
"Who are you saying is timid? I'm just stating the facts!" The young staff officer was not fooled. He could not question the plan of his immediate boss Blomeier, nor could he admit that he was timid, so he could only emphasize that the difficulties were indeed ahead of him.
"Isn't it because you are here to solve the problem?" The general who visited the exercise stopped the quarrel between the two and said to the young staff officer: "You have been to the Tang Empire... so you are more experienced in this area. Please tell me. , there is still room for improvement in the entire plan.”
This plan should never have been born in the first place! This is no longer something that should be perfected. There are more loopholes in this plan than the steps it can execute!
Although he wanted to spit out these thoughts loudly, the young staff officer still swallowed these words for the sake of his own life and his own future, and said in a more tactful way: "We can buy intelligence. , to test how frequently the Tang Empire monitors our ports."
“What else?” When he heard about spending money, the general was obviously not interested at all. Now that the war is about to begin, every penny must be spent wisely. What the **** is this **** test? "In addition, our fleet should be allowed to go to sea frequently, so as to confuse the enemy and make them confused as to whether our fleet's departure from the port is a signal to start a war." The staff officer made another suggestion of his own.
This suggestion is somewhat constructive. Anyway, we have to go to sea for training. If we combine it, it can indeed have a certain confusing effect.
So the general nodded and agreed: "Very good, this can indeed have the effect of deceiving the enemy."
"In addition, we need to send more anti-submarine destroyers to search relevant waters to force the Tang Empire's submarines not to dare approach our port waters! Try our best to prevent the opponent's submarines from discovering the whereabouts of our fleet." The staff officer continued to talk about his idea.
The knowledge he learned in the Tang Empire was not actually the most advanced, but the idea was indeed correct. Based on the existing weapons and equipment, he can piece together a relatively reasonable set of tactics. This is his ability, or ability.
He is very authoritative in this regard, otherwise he would not have been able to participate in such a high-level combat training meeting. And some of the suggestions he gave have indeed benefited naval generals who have never been to the Tang Empire for further training.
"What you said is very good, it really should be so." The general patted the other party's shoulder with satisfaction, with an expression that said I thought highly of you.
In fact, everyone knows that the rank of colonel hanging on the shoulders of the young staff officer is the highest he can reach. There may be a chance for major general, but that will have to wait many years.
“Go back and write a report to me, and send a copy to General Blomeier!” the general said, turning his attention to the sea again.
There, the Stuka that flew back passed through the sea area again, and the roar of the engine became noisy, accompanied by the noise of the sea water lapping against the rocks under its feet.
These Stuka formations are very neat, and at first glance it can be seen that they are all driven by elite pilots. Over the years, the Lions Empire has accumulated thousands of experienced pilots, and the thriving civil aviation has also provided them with a large reserve of pilots.
The newly formed naval aviation force is naturally selected from the best, and the number of flight hours trained is several times higher than that of the army aviation force, so they can easily form formations and practice "ultra-low altitude penetration." Only strict training and accurate bomb delivery are the keys to defeating the enemy!
It is precisely because of this background that the ambition of Lions I was fueled. As the military power at his disposal expanded, so did his appetite. Confused by greed, Dragon Island seems not to be a barrel of dynamite, but a delicious... cake.
