Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Chapter 773: Lao Li, if you have any questions, don’t hide them, just speak out!

"College student, I think our previous plan for deploying armored forces has huge problems!"

After many actual combat simulations, Li Yunlong discovered many problems with the armored forces. He has always wanted to find a suitable opportunity to speak out, and the current timing is very appropriate.

"Old Li, don't hide any problems. We're all busy on weekdays and rarely get together."

"After all, for the grand counter-offensive, each of us is responsible for a huge task, and we have to run back and forth within the base. Even today's meeting was postponed two or three times before we could finally gather everyone together."

Lin Zhenhua looked at Li Yunlong with hope, wanting to hear his opinion.

"College students, we all have a consensus. That is, in the great counter-offensive, the armored forces will take the lead. I believe no one disagrees with this point."

"In terms of the logistics of the armored forces, we haven't considered it perfectly, but at least we have achieved a similar level."

"In order to ensure the logistical supply of the armored forces, we even organized a special transport aircraft brigade to ensure the supply of materials for the armored forces."

"On the surface, the previous reorganization plan sounds very consistent with battlefield reality, but after repeated drills, I found that the firepower of our armored forces is still somewhat weak."

"Take the current assault guns for example. The armored forces are only equipped with the Type 1 assault gun, which has a caliber of 75 mm and is unable to provide effective fire support for the troops."

"Our StuG II is only deployed in artillery units, without considering armored units at all. This is a huge flaw in my opinion."

"Our armored forces lack the power to attack. Once they encounter the Japanese heavy artillery bombardment or the Japanese bunker fortifications, the armored forces' offensive capabilities will be severely hampered."

"I think the StuG II should also be included in the armored forces, with each regiment equipped with at least 16 guns."

"The 2nd assault gun is equipped with a 180mm heavy mortar, which can effectively strike the Japanese fortifications. As for our 150mm heavy artillery, its movement speed is too slow and it is simply unable to follow the armored forces in combat."

"I think the 12 150mm heavy artillery pieces assigned to the armored forces should be cancelled, and the number of rocket launchers and medium artillery should be increased. At the same time, the air support for the armored forces should be strengthened."

"The key to the success or failure of armored warfare is air superiority. If our air forces cannot gain air superiority over the battlefield, even if we have more tanks and armored vehicles, we will only become sitting ducks."

"You know, the Japanese have quite a few dive bombers. They can easily deal with our tanks and armored vehicles."

"I think 16 air force regiments cannot meet our combat needs. We should add four more air force regiments to increase our air force strength."

"As for the artillery, there's not much to say. We've already completed standardized production of the 75mm triple-barreled gun, the 105mm howitzer, the 125mm cannon, and the 150mm howitzer."

"Plus, after having used it many times on the battlefield before, the brothers have become very proficient in it. There really is nothing that needs improvement!"
