Chapter 1499: 1,500 elites gathered
"Dang..." There was a knock on the door. Liu Guozhu took away the map covering his face, sat up, rubbed his face, and ordered: "Come in."
The battalion intern officer walked in and saluted: "Long live our emperor! Report to the battalion commander that the last four vehicle crews have arrived."
In all the armies of the Tang Empire, there were trainee officers, and they were all very young, some even less than 20 years old. These trainee officers are reserve talents. After obtaining the approval of the chief officer and participating in the assessment, they will be transferred to other units to serve as formal commanders.
This system is prepared for army expansion. At the same time, it can also train commanders in advance so that they have richer experience.
"Long live my emperor! This is good news." Liu Guozhu stood up with a smile and put the map on the table: "They are all old acquaintances, so I won't welcome them. Give them some strength and let them hurry up. Get familiar with the 96 tank.”
“Yes!” The battalion trainee commander stood at attention and saluted, turned around and walked out.
Liu Guozhu had no intention of sleeping at this time. The arrival of four new vehicle crew members meant that his armored battalion was fully equipped, and the elites drawn from other units had also been integrated into the collective.
In fact, the elite Tang Army gathered in Linshui and Dongwan and other places did not only have one 1st Armored Division. In addition to this division, there were also the 1st Infantry Division and the 1st Marine Division that were replaced bit by bit.
The same is true for the Army Aviation. A large number of Black Hawk helicopters were secretly deployed to the waterfront, and the Army Aviation equipped these aircraft with the best pilots.
The Air Force is not idle either. They have assembled a large number of elite pilots and deployed the most advanced aircraft in coastal areas.
In the past, the J-7 fighters stayed in place to disrupt other countries' reconnaissance, while the Yinglong fighter jets and H-6 fighters are quietly being transferred to the Beidao base.
At the same time, the new warships of the Tang Navy are gradually forming combat effectiveness. These new warships will play an important role in future landing operations.
That is to say, other countries did not have satellites or decent espionage organizations, and their codes were broken and they did not dare to use them. This allowed the secret gathering of the Tang Army to succeed.
Otherwise, as long as a satellite passes by from the sky, such a large-scale army cannot hide it from anyone: hundreds of aircraft, hundreds of tanks, thousands of ships and warships of various types, plus more than 100,000 troops... It's just too much.
In short, preparations for the Tang Empire's landing operations have quietly begun, much faster than expected by countries around the world.
However, while deploying troops and generals, the Tang Empire still pretended to be peaceful and peaceful, and deceived almost everyone with songs and dances to bring peace.
Even in the eyes of many Tang people, the war is over. Their Emperor accomplished a feat that almost no one has accomplished in the past: he unified the entire Western Continent!
Now, even if the Tang Empire releases Nanshan's swords and guns into the treasury, no one will criticize them. Even if Tang Mo was so arrogant and licentious that he died of old age, he was already the greatest emperor in the world.
So many people in the Tang Dynasty feel that war and other issues can really be let go. It may be a better choice for everyone to relax, make some money, and improve the quality of life...
Under this trend of thought, Tang's economy is booming, and everyone is generally optimistic that Tang's economy will continue to develop in the next one or even two years. The war will never come, and the trade on the endless sea cannot be cut off, so many people begin to invest crazily, and many rich people have invested their money in the shipping industry.
After all, the transportation capacity of the endless sea has never been sufficient. At present, in order to meet the demand, at least 10,000 ships of various types are needed.
With such a big gap, it is naturally a good project for investment. Therefore, almost all shipyards in the world are frantically building various types of transport ships.
The most advanced transport ships are all built by the Datang Group, and the second most advanced ships are all built by the Cyric Consortium - the above-mentioned expensive, huge displacement, fast speed, and technologically advanced ships, you even need to win a lottery if you want to buy them. queue.
The remaining shipbuilding companies are mixed: the second echelon are shipyards that can get guidance from Datang Group engineers, obtain relevant drawings, and have the right to purchase corresponding materials. These shipyards are located in Chu and Shu. The nephew of Datang Group, their orders have exploded.
The third batch of shipyards are the first-tier shipyards on the Eastern Continent. Their equipment is not bad, and some technology has been introduced from the Tang Dynasty. The overall strength is still there.
These shipyards are currently either producing warships or large transport ships, and their schedules are also full.
As for the more shipyards, they are all similar to small workshops. They are all producing transport ships and fishing boats of several thousand tons, and some powerful ones can build large ships of seven or eight thousand tons.
In the past year, more than 1,700 ships have been launched around the Endless Sea. The largest tonnage is the oil tanker built by Datang Group, with a displacement of more than 200,000 tons; the smaller tonnage Shenguang missile speedboat built by Dorn is only about Displacement of more than 200 tons.
It is precisely because of the large-scale construction of so many ships that the Tang Dynasty's dock landing ships were hidden among the massive ships and were almost undetected.
Those spies from other countries who tried their best to find out the Tang Army's deployment only knew that the Tang Army was building a smaller "aircraft carrier-like" ship. They had no idea what the Tang Army planned to use such a ship for.
Everyone is speculating that the Tang Army cannot afford to build expensive aircraft carriers and is planning to use such "small aircraft carriers" to make up for the lack of quantity.
Therefore, the air forces and navies of various countries have focused their defense on "the Tang Army's possible increase in air strike power."
Anyway, for them commanders, no matter what Tang Guoxin's warship does, as long as it can take off aircraft, they can prepare it as an aircraft carrier.
With the capacity of their little heads, it is naturally impossible to guess that the Tang Dynasty is preparing to use a three-dimensional landing to teach the whole world a new lesson.
Liu Guozhu sat down at the table, grabbed a book, opened it to the position he saw, and continued to study. There are obviously many different things that an armor commander and a tank commander need to understand. He must constantly improve himself in order to adapt to the new position.
Those who are unwilling to keep up with the times are now playing officers in the fake 1st Armored Division station near Wuyang...
