Chapter 447: It's just a paper tiger. Why are you afraid to fight it?
The battle situation changed just as everyone expected. The Eagle Sauce landed in the rear and defeated the Jin family's army.
The wave of advancement came to nothing, the troops on the front line suffered heavy losses and retreated to the rear.
It had already reached the 37th line, but now it has retreated to the 38th line again.
Once back to before liberation.
He couldn't bear it anymore and started asking us for help, but his dad didn't care. What the hell was that?
Ding Wei received two orders. The first was to require the border defense forces to be prepared and ready for combat at any time.
The second is that military industries and other organizations are preparing combat ammunition and military supplies, which can enter the peninsula at any time to fight against the Eagle Sauce.
The top management is still discussing how to deal with the current situation.
To fight or not to fight, if to fight, who will lead the team.
On the second day of the first anniversary of the Dragon Kingdom, a secret meeting was held to discuss the important matter of sending troops.
This is a war of founding a nation, so it must be fought.
Those who agree to fight are in the minority, while those who disagree to send troops are in the majority.
The domestic situation has just been pacified, and it is time to restore the economy and focus on production. It would be unwise to confront the most powerful Eagle Sauce at this time.
The industrial foundation is extremely poor and many places are still in chaos, requiring the army to garrison and clean up.
There are also many people who are afraid of confronting the Eagle Sauce and are unwilling to provoke this powerful opponent.
It is believed that the situation on the peninsula is deteriorating and the Russian bear will not sit idly by.
Soldiers fight against soldiers, generals fight against generals, and elder brother fights against elder brother.
The only one who can play Tai Chi with the Eagle Sauce must be at least the size of the Russian Bear.
It’s not that we can’t fight, it’s that we really can’t fight.
Judging from the economic size of both sides, the United States has 2848 billion US dollars, while China has only 229 billion US dollars.
Taking the troops’ weapons and equipment as an example, an American division is equipped with 105 54mm artillery pieces, 155 18mm artillery pieces, and a large number of tanks and aircraft. An American-equipped division is equipped with more than 140 tanks.
Except for Ding Wei's elite mechanized army, no other army could be equipped with weapons as powerful as the enemy's division.
The other troops under Ding Wei's command could not produce artillery of this size.
Depends on logistics, depends on the level of mechanization.
The military factory has the technology, but it does not have such a large output and cannot support too many troops.
Technological breakthroughs are one thing, and lack of production capacity is another.
The increase in production capacity requires the improvement of overall industrialization strength.
The gap is still very obvious, which is also what most officers are worried about.
The headquarters was very troubled and asked people to call Ding Wei, Commander Chen, General Xu Da and others to discuss important matters.
I think the best candidates must be those two. They are young military commanders who are capable of leading hundreds of thousands of troops in battle.
A man who is good at defeating the strong with the weak and using his troops in an elusive way is most suitable to be the commander-in-chief of the army.
Among the young military leaders, this one is the first choice and can fight like a god.
A meticulous person, suitable for leading large troops in battle.
The rest can also be considered.
He has also led hundreds of thousands of troops and is capable of taking charge on his own.
But one thing is that Ding Wei returned to the north from southern Yunnan, and the monkeys still needed someone to keep the place under control.
At the beginning, he went there to replace Commander Chen. After Ding Wei went back, Commander Chen had no choice but to accept the duties of an advisor and take on the important task.
If he can't come back in a short time, he will definitely not be able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the troops.
As for the remaining Ding Wei, to be honest, his strength should be reassuring.
He was tempered in the fight against the Japanese invaders and is a very solid fighter who can fight tough battles.
Ding Wei also has an important task, which is to be responsible for the construction of the northern border defense + air force, which is also a relatively important position.
If Ding Wei is allowed to take the field, at least someone must be found to replace his current position.
Forget it, Ding Wei is unwilling to give up his base.
How can we allow outsiders to interfere in the army that we have built with great effort?
The first question facing everyone is to face up to the gap and whether to fight against powerful opponents.
Originally, the Eagle Sauce didn't want to fight with us. If it rashly got involved, it would probably get beaten up too.
It is right to look ahead and behind, to think more, and to be responsible for countless people.
How can we make a decision without considering the situation?
But as a soldier, Ding Wei feels that soldiers' thoughts should not be so complicated.
This requires us to follow the words of Li Yunlong: we must draw our swords when we meet an enemy. Even if the opponent is the world's best swordsman, we must not lose the courage to draw our swords.
The one-day discussion yielded no results. Ding Wei remained silent and even looked a little dazed.
Like an old man, taking a nap leaning back in a chair.
Everyone present here is a general who has experienced many battles.
At night, Xu Da, who came from a humble background, stood on the balcony and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
The big tiger, Eagle Sauce, has eaten up half of the peninsula. It is not easy to mess with or fight, but if the tiger wants to eat people, what can we do?
You have to fight it with all your might, even if you raise your fists.
"Call Ding Wei over. I want to talk to him. This kid hasn't spoken a word all day. It's not like him."
The guard looked at the time. It was almost 12 o'clock. It would be a bad idea to disturb Ding Wei at this time.
"If you have any concerns, just say that I called him. Do you dare to give me a cold shoulder?"
Ding Wei had indeed fallen asleep, and he seemed to be in a state of being calm and composed. He ate when he was hungry, drank when he was thirsty, and slept when he was tired.
When he heard his old boss was looking for him, he quickly got up and came over.
The two men discussed until late at night and came to a conclusion that they had to beat it. If they didn't beat it, how would they know if it was made of paper?
Ding Wei’s meaning was very clear. This time he was trying to put out a fire and save the big brother’s younger brothers.
Those who have money can provide money, those who have people can provide people, and we dare to draw our swords and fight against the Eagle Sauce.
But the Soviet Union cannot just sit there and do nothing. It must provide weapons and equipment and offer air force support.
Fighter planes, tanks, cannons, and guns must be provided with sufficient sincerity.
Returning to Manchuria from the conference center, Ding Wei's plane went ahead to make pre-war preparations.
He himself served as the second staff officer for this expedition, standing on the second line to assist his old boss.
Not only must we take into account border defense, but we must also take into account the supply of ammunition to the troops.
There were two other people who arrived in Manchuria at the same time as Ding Wei. After transiting here, they went straight to the Russian bear to discuss the mentioned military aid.
If you want us to send troops, as the big brother you have to show your support.
The results were not satisfactory. Some military equipment assistance could be provided, but aircraft assistance would have to wait for two months.
Said the air force was not ready.
"This is nonsense. The Far East Army has thousands of fighter planes that can be deployed at any time. Not ready? It takes two months to prepare?"
Ding Wei was so angry that he smashed the cup. It was obvious that the Russian bear did not think highly of our strength.
I believe that if they cannot hold out for two months under the fierce attack of the Eagle Sauce, they will inevitably fail.
Why invest precious air power in something that is bound to fail?
Jin Xiaoer can give it up at any time to preserve his own interests.
What a qualified and ruthless person.
How can I describe it? I am allowed to let down the world, but I cannot let the world let me down.
The words cold-blooded, heartless, and vicious came to my mind.
Both the Russian bear and the American hawk are things that you should not approach.
