.    Chapter 573: Strengthening the Army of Science and Technology

This bombing finally allowed MacArthur to see the terrifying power of the Chinese Air Force. Before that, MacArthur always believed that the US Air Force was the most powerful.

Regarding the failure of the US Navy and Army in several battles in Australia, the description of the Chinese Air Force is an exaggeration of the opponent's strength and shirking its own responsibilities.

But after this bombing, MacArthur shut up and finally learned the strength of the Chinese Air Force.

Not to mention how powerful the bombs of those bombers are, the fighters that the US Air Force took off for interception were as vulnerable as children's toys in front of the Chinese fighters, and they all turned into turkeys in the air and fell down in the fight with Chinese fighters.

In the ground bunker, MacArthur not only appreciated the terrifying power of Chinese bombers, but also had the most intuitive experience of the high-performance fighter jets, attack aircraft and more advanced jets of the Chinese Air Force.

The US Air Force pilot who survived by skydiving in time told MacArthur that Chinese aircraft not only have good performance, but also have high quality of pilots and abundant flight experience.

Most fighter jets are veteran pilots with air combat experience and shooting down experience, and many aircraft have sprayed under the cockpit with more than five ace pilots with a proven shot down record.

This is a terrible advantage for the United States to take the proportion of old pilots with new ones. With excellent and advanced aircraft and experienced veteran pilots, this is simply a nightmare for the US Air Force!

In addition to the Chinese air force, there is another problem before MacArthur, that is, the omnipresent Chinese naval submarine force is threatening the US military's maritime transportation lines at any time.

On the dock of the harbor in the slanting west of Xiyang, a dock that was busy during the day still exudes a scorching atmosphere. It is burned by the sun in the sky, and the temperature is increased by the exhaust gas of the dense traffic flow and the heat emitted by the heat engine's work. Of course, there is also the warming emotional temperature increased by the enthusiastic work enthusiasm of the workers here.

Everything indicates that this terminal, like other ports in China, is constantly stepping up its use of various materials for China's revival.

Various container traffic and bulk logistics vehicles traveling here are constantly circulating various materials, and everything is so busy and orderly, thanks to increasingly scientific management and vehicle scheduling and distribution, in order to gain more efficiency from technology.

Some people wearing different work clothes and hard hats are in every corner of the dock, from mechanical assembly lines, equipment lifting and unloading, and from old workers to obtain first-hand information and data, trying to find some answers and improvements to improve this modern dock, which is already very modern and efficient, again improving the efficiency of this bit by bit.

"Xiao Li, it's almost time to get off work. Pack up your things. Don't wait until it's dark and can't find anything to catch you."

Although the screams coming from a distance were full of energy, they were still a little blurred under the cover of the noisy background sounds of various environments. Li Ling here had to wave his hand to signal that he knew the content of the notice.

However, when packing up the things, Li Ling kept sweeping from the corner of his eyes to a special dock not far from the port. The dock in this area was rowed out to be a special dock for the army. Several warships and patrol boats of all sizes, as well as landing ships and requisitioned transport ships were docked on the dock.

On the dock, military vehicles and mountains of materials were constantly being shipped to these ships.

"Hey, what are you looking at? Be careful that someone will send you to the Commercial Bureau for tea as a spy." A big hand suddenly came to his side. Li Ling, who was familiar with the footsteps and sounds, naturally knew that it was his classmate.

"Nothing." Li Ling smiled faintly, lowered his head and focused on packing the things in the package.

"Li Ling, tell me where are you going to fight again?!" The classmate around him helped Li Ling pack up his things, blinking his eyes to get some answers from Li Ling.

"You ask me? Who will I ask! I am not a soldier." Li Ling answered his classmate's question angrily.

"But you are a veteran who has made meritorious service. If you don't go up and ask, no matter what, you can wear a lot of military uniforms." The classmate unwillingly moved Li Ling to inquire.

"In the confidentiality regulations, don't ask what should not be asked, don't know what should not be known, don't talk nonsense! When the school research team sent you to do this automation project, you didn't read the confidentiality regulations and signature!" Li Ling blanched at the unwilling classmate and reminded the other party of what they should pay attention to.

"Of course I know, but it is not rare to see military vehicles in school, tanks and armored vehicles, but this warship and aircraft are not often seen. Look, it is the latest missile ship. The missile ship, which was reported by domestic newspapers last two months, hit the main warship of the US fleet in the Battle of Port Augusta!"

"You don't know that the announcement of the missile ship made all the male students in the school crazy. Later, I heard that several graduate students in the department were said to have joined the research on the outer side of the missile ship to see how they were so angry! Now I didn't expect to see the missile ship here. Going back to tell those guys about it would be enough to tell them in the dormitory. I really regretted that the film was expensive and I didn't bring the camera out. Otherwise, I would spend a month's pocket money to buy two volumes and take a few pictures and leave a memorial. I wouldn't be so angry that those stupid guys in the dormitory would be so angry!"

"I think you chose the wrong major. You should not choose the electronic automatic application, but the navy or air force major, so that you can stay with these iron knots every day." Li Ling was angry with the regret, annoyed and yearned for him.

"Li Ling, what you said is incorrect. Do you think everyone can join the army like you? Don't say you don't know. Every year when you are about to graduate, the first employment target for students in the school is the army. Which boy does not have the dream of defending the country?"

"Along with that, our army is not only defending our country, but also expanding its territory and beating the world powers that once made us humiliate. This makes people excited to think about it." When the classmate said this, his eyes were filled with strong heat when he looked at the missile ship.

"All right, you can't let it come and get close to you. Look at it. You see, you've been watching the missile ship today. What kind of messy data are collected? It would be strange if the project tutor doesn't kill you. Hurry up and submit the data while you haven't returned yet, and hurry up and recall and check it out."

Li Ling's reminder finally made the classmates turn their attention back to their data record book and start carefully checking the various data collected today.

After all, my main task is to come here to complete the designated school project team with the tutor to study how to improve the mechanization and automation of port loading efficiency, rather than to come to relax and travel.

When the sun sets and the weather in early summer in the south is still maintaining a certain brightness, the two of them will complete the final work at hand.

"Stop reading it, you can't finish watching it anymore."

Before leaving, the classmate was still looking at the missile ship reluctantly, so Li Ling had to climb on his shoulder and half-stand and half-push him away.

"Oh, you said, Li Ling, why am I so stingy? I would have gritted my teeth and bought a few rolls of film if I had known that I would have gritted my teeth and bought a few rolls of film."

"There is no medicine for regret in the world, so I'll teach you a way." Shi Jiping saw that this guy was indeed a little bit obsessed with the enemy and had to come up with a way to give up. Otherwise, if he came here to work tomorrow, as long as the missile ship did not leave, this guy would still drag down his work progress.

"What's the solution?" The classmate got excited when he heard this and asked, holding Bao Xiaoran's hand.

"You can go to the photo studio in the city to see if anyone rents a camera and spend some money to buy some film and rent a box."

"But my extra money is only enough for film and rinsing fees, not enough for renting a camera..."

"That's the traditional idea. You've learned everything you learn in school! Go rent a better camera, the lens should be longer, and you don't worry about the expensive ones! As long as you can take good photos, you can take them back and wash them out, and put them in the school to buy them."

"Not to mention the money from buying film, renting cameras and washing photos, maybe you can still make a small profit per month of living expenses. This is something that the fourteen professionals in the economics and finance department often talk about."

"I hate you very much when I use the book. Li Ling, you have an idea! I'll go after dinner!"

"It's too late to eat. Think about how many nights the photo studio in the city still opens! Go now and I'll save some food for you. I'll take pictures early tomorrow. If it's late, I'll leave!" Li Ling slapped his old classmate on the back, and was so angry that he was aware of his academic intelligence in his mind, but these things were always slow and he was so slow that he was so angry that his teeth were itchy.

"Is there any insider?"

"There is a big inside story. I have been a soldier. Of course, I know some things. Although I dare not be very sure, I still know some of the habits of the army. Usually, the army will try to avoid private ports and freight transit stations as much as possible. First, it is convenient for management and the second is to keep it confidential."

"But now even missile ships have gathered at the civil port terminal here, that means there will be a big war to fight again! Only before every major battle, can each material transfer station and assembly site be so busy. You haven't seen the traffic flow and cargo loading and unloading density there, and the frequency is much higher than here? If you come late, let alone missile ships, maybe you won't even have to take pictures of torpedo speedboats."

Hearing Li Ling's answer, the classmate blinked his eyes and stuffed the data package on his body into Li Ling's hand. He ran all the way to the bus stop, leaving only a surprised look at the worker and the roadside crowd who were not sure of being so anxious.

Looking at the classmate who was leaving, Li Ling smiled helplessly and carried the things he stuffed over to leave here. However, when he passed the fork in the dock, he couldn't help but look at the dock area marked as military supplies loading and unloading.

"Australia has won it. From the strategic location of each region on the map, there should be no larger-scale naval wars and landing wars. Could it be to attack New Zealand? Or to land in India? Attack Guam? or even the Philippines and Japan?"

Li Ling's guess was not very correct, but it was not wrong. The current war is more like a logistics competition, transporting the rear to the front, and then consuming all the various materials accumulated by both sides in a few months in a few days or ten days.

The war in the industrial age was more of a kind of consumption.

Li Ling judged that the amount of materials was assembled. After obtaining all control of Australia, the troops that were originally gathered in Australia now have a state of rest and rest with redundant troops and nothing to do.

The senior management of the Chinese Ministry of Defense will naturally adjust the latest strategic and tactical plans for the soldiers gathered in Australia. New goals, new land and new resources will appear on the desks of the senior management of China.

On the Australian land, after more than two months of rest, the Chinese soldiers who had completed the capture of Australia's mainland have packed up their luggage and once again took the vehicles to drive towards the docks one by one.

There, they were going to take another ship to move towards the next target of attack.

At the same time, in the central combat conference room of Kuala Lumpur, the Nanyang War Zone headquarters, a group of generals, big and small, and school officials gathered here to gather in front of the huge sand table to watch the defense signs on several major islands in the Philippines.

Unlike the former US and Japanese armies who stood on one side with clear stands, the current US and Japanese flags are mixed together. The originally dirty and uneven bandits are now colluding with each other for a common Chinese goal.

"The Philippines now brings together 600,000 Japanese troops and 800,000 armed civilians. Although the numbers are a bit terrifying, with the available information, only more than 200,000 of the troops of 600,000 are considered regular divisions, and the remaining numbers are mostly used by the elderly, weak, sick and disabled to make up the numbers."

"These miscellaneous brands are not only inferior in military quality, but also in the weapons and equipment are not as good as the original second-rate division and brigade. The only thing to note is that because Japan turns to the US military, the US military will no longer be harassed by the Japanese army in the process of reinforcement of major Philippine islands. In the previous three months, the US military has reinforced more than 50,000 troops to the Philippines."

"Now, on the major islands of the Philippines, more than 300,000 US troops have gathered. There are more than 100 aircraft of all types, more than 700 tanks, more than 3,000 armored personnel carriers of all types, and more than 3,000 trucks. The above are the latest information collected as of September 7!"

A colonel in the conference room used a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant to explain the latest information collected by the intelligence department to the many generals and officials surrounding the sand table. With his explanation, the deployment of the US-Japanese coalition forces in the sand table, the roughly the area of ​​the gathering of troops gradually became clear in the minds of these officers.

"Very good, thank you for providing us with so much information. Now you all know that the Philippines, the springboard that threatens our southwest, especially the Guangdong-Guangdong industrial zone, is the time to clean up it! There are two options now, one is to send troops to the Philippine island to start fighting! There are also one, strangle their supplies with the navy, so that these hundreds of thousands of American soldiers and millions of Japanese devils starve to death on the island and sleep to death!"

Cheng Wenli's square face always had an expression of being arrogant and powerful, and his thick voice always made people look shaking. His old subordinate who had made a mistake felt in his heart when he saw his dark face. Those who did not make a mistake also raised their spirits and paid attention to Cheng Wenli's upcoming words and actions.

"But I don't think both plans are ideal. The Philippines has special terrain, with mountains, primitive forests, and many islands. Various reasons are not conducive to the combat of our mechanized troops. If we land in and cannot give full play to the advantages of our heavy firepower and mechanized troops, the unreasonable increase in casualties is not what I want to see."

"There is another way to use the navy to blockade the enemy troops on the Philippine islands. Don't look at the large number of millions of miscellaneous brands, but once you lose the plane and the ship, on the Philippines, the island that lacks industry, these guys can only watch the sky and the ocean to count bird feathers every day!"

With a calm face, Cheng Wenli always talked about two plans to attack the Philippines.

"The above is the plan formulated by our combat staff, but I don't feel very comfortable no matter how I look at it. I call you commanders, big and small chiefs of staff to come here to close the door and hold a meeting to brainstorm the most appropriate plan. The plan requires that we try our best to give full play to our army's existing advantages to reduce casualties, and try our best to achieve the maximum strategic and tactical effect!"

Since the Philippines was a hard-hit area for Japanese immigration before, a large number of armed civilians and a large number of troops worked hard here for a long time, considering that the Philippines' special geographical environment was not conducive to giving full play to the firepower and mechanization advantages of the Chinese military.

In addition, the focus of last year's combat was in Australia, and the Japanese troops in the Philippines were unable to put any pressure on China's mainland and coastline, so the Philippines' offensive has been delayed to this day.

When Japan turned completely to the United States, the role of Japan being caught between the middle was lost. With the Americans' war potential and existing combat strength, the importance and threat of the Philippines to southern China were highlighted. In this regard, the first thing the Third War Zone needs to solve is the Philippines' problem.

Before this, the Nanyang War Zone had a predetermined combat plan for the Philippines, but it was a combat plan for the Japanese defenders or the US defenders, and did not take into account the combat ideas after the US-Japan alliance, which led to some unpredictable situations if the original combat plan is copied and used.

It is precisely in order to minimize unpredictable risks that Cheng Wenli repeatedly urged his staff team to brainstorm and come up with appropriate strategic plans.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Hualian League has been able to continuously promote military chiefs. Among the five military veterans, only Li Zongren can bear great responsibilities, while the rest are just the qualities of regular generals.

However, with years of experience in leading troops, and from time to time to study at Nansha Military Academy, Cheng Wenli and others still firmly grasped their own troops and gave full play to the overall advantages of the Chinese coalition army.

In the new era, the wisdom and talent of generals are no longer the key factors that influence the outcome of war. The Chinese army has always emphasized the use of the advantages of overall warfare, which is the true army!

Strengthening the army with such technology is enough to crush any powerful country in the world!
