Chapter 16031604Remarkable progress
Of course, looking at this condition simply, it does not seem to be a compromise, but a unilateral compromise by the dwarves.
However, Truman made another request: He hoped that the coalition air power originally planned to be used in the second counterattack would cooperate with the ground troops.
In other words, the thousands of aircraft accumulated by the coalition forces will be used in this large-scale counterattack to support the counterattacks of the 8th and 9th Dwarf armies.
To be honest, Fancruz was unwilling, but what the dwarf said made sense. In the end, the elf general had to return to his base again to discuss countermeasures with the air force commander on the elven frontline, Marquis Lane.
"The performance of the aircraft provided by the Susus Empire is very good. If it were not for this alliance, we would not have known that the Mirage 3 fighter jets were so advanced." Marquis Lane is still very professional in air force command. He did not rush to express his position, but said The state of the Alliance Air Force has arisen.
They have about 200 Mirage 3 fighters and 200 104 fighters, plus the 200 J-6 modifications accumulated by the dwarves, and 200 J-6... Also counting the 262 jet fighters, provided by the Dorn Empire Sabers, the total number of coalition jet fighters has exceeded 1,000.
In addition to these aircraft, the Dwarves also have more than 300 additional Saab bombers and more than 500 MiG-3 and other propeller fighters used as ground attack aircraft.
Including other aircraft, the total number of aircraft that the coalition can dispatch exceeds 2,000, which can be said to be a strong force.
Truman’s plan was to launch a full-scale air force deployment at the same time as the ground attack was launched to perform two tasks at the same time: First. Strive for battlefield air supremacy, at least suppress the air power of the Tang Empire, so that the Tang Army cannot dispatch aircraft to crush the advancing coalition forces on the ground; second, bomb Yongdong Port, and destroy the dock under repair no matter what, so that the Tang Army's previous efforts All in vain to buy more time.
The two plans should be carried out simultaneously and must be completed regardless of losses or costs. The next actions will be modified with reference to the actual results of the ground forces.
"But despite this, I am still not optimistic about these two plans." After praising the Susas Air Force's Phantom fighter, Marquis Lane changed the subject and shook his head to deny Truman's air offensive plan.
"This is simply asking for death. The Dwarf Saab bombers on the bombing mission will definitely be annihilated like last time..." He pointed at the route that circled around on the map: "They will be shot down, one by one. Not even a plane can fly back! And we can’t even confirm the results of the bombing…”
"Communications will be interfered. Whether the aircraft can fly to the relevant area is a problem." After finishing speaking, Ryan pointed to the other side: "It is impossible for fighter jets to succeed in fighting for air supremacy. All we can do is to use The loss of valuable pilots and aircraft will only replace the fact that Tang's air force is temporarily unable to use air superiority."
"In two days at most, we will be unable to bear the losses and collapse. On the third day, only the Tang Army's planes will be left in the sky! At that time, they can bomb as much as they want. The ground troops left the bunker and walked halfway. Guess Guess what?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Van Kruse.
Van Kruse nodded and agreed with Marquis Lane's statement: Once the air force launches an attack, the Tang Army's technical superiority will be able to defeat them in an instant.
But after Van Kruse agreed, he had to raise his own question: "Marquis Lane, if we don't launch a counterattack now, when the Tang army becomes more numerous, we will only be more disadvantaged."
"You are right, so I also think that launching a counterattack in the near future is a better choice." Marquis Lane expressed his opinion. Van Kruse asked with some confusion: "But didn't you just say..."
"What I'm saying is that precious air force cannot be wasted!" Marquis Lane corrected Van Kruse: "I plan to change tactics and use more reasonable methods to prevent the Tang Army from using air supremacy!"
Lean plans to use multiple batches of small numbers of fighter jets to avoid massive losses. Although some aircraft will be lost in every sortie, he can at least keep the losses within a tolerable range.
On the other hand, Lane also believes that sending bombers to destroy the port is a good way, but this matter cannot be done on the first day of the war, but on a later day: in this way, the Tang Army's air defense force can be paralyzed and the Tang Army's air defense force can be paralyzed, and the Tang Army's air defense force can be paralyzed and the Tang Army's air defense force can be paralyzed. Better chance.
Of course, this is just a plan. He still has to discuss it with the air force commanders of the Susus Empire, as well as the dwarves and the air force commanders of Dorne, and finally come up with a plan that everyone agrees with.
This is definitely not an easy task. It may take two days for everyone to be unable to convince the other party. In short, no one is willing to burn himself to illuminate others, and no one wants to be the first to rush towards the powerful Tang army unless it is absolutely necessary.
…
On the other side, Truman, the commander of the dwarf 8th Army, was on the phone with Xie Ke, the commander of the 9th Army. They are also discussing whether it is feasible to launch a separate counterattack.
“It is unrealistic to expect the elves to fight **** battles for us. We can only open up the situation ourselves, and then find ways to persuade the elves to start attacking.” Truman felt that his words were almost worn out, and the elves were still selfish.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill, and we can only judge the situation by ourselves now..." On the other side, Xie Ke, who was holding the phone receiver, said in a rich voice: "Sitting and waiting to die is the most useless way to die, and I will never accept waiting to die like this. "
"I don't accept it either!" Truman echoed: "Counterattack is our only way out, General Shekko."
"I support you! For the empire, for His Majesty! Ula!" Xieke grabbed the phone and said firmly: "If you decide to attack, my 9th Army will definitely cover your advance on the flanks!"
"I hope everything goes well..." Truman hung up the phone, then walked to the window and fell into silence looking at the scenery outside. He wanted to wait for the Air Force to come to a conclusion before starting to implement the plan.
Compared with the past few days, this is already a very good situation: from the time Emperor Binghan I fell ill to now, the three frontline armies have not come up with a decent plan at all. That kind of **** way of wasting time, That's the most despairing thing.
At least, everyone now believes that counterattack is correct, which is already a very remarkable progress.
