"We also use cavalry?" Li Liang looked at the message sent back by Shang Guo, his eyes almost popped out, "Where do we get the cavalry?!"
Li Liang was a little annoyed. This prince lost his dignity and came to ask for help, and this is how you, the Shang Kingdom, responded? If we had cavalry, why would we consult with you, the Shang Kingdom
Beside him, Yang Zhong, the left prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, sighed and said, "Your Highness, please finish reading the message."
You got angry before you even finished reading the letter. That's very unstable.
Li Liang finished reading it patiently, and finally realized that he seemed to have wrongly accused others. Yes, the Tang Kingdom did have cavalry, but this cavalry was a little special because they were mounted on fighter jets!
The strategy proposed by Shang State is a big showdown between the new and old cavalry!
This is a proactive attack strategy. There is no such thing as a thief who steals for a thousand days, and a thief who defends for a long time will lose. This simple truth is fully implemented in the military, and passively taking a beating is never a good idea. The Shang State is now offering a proactive attack strategy:
Two planes (recommended) or a group of three planes would fly over the areas where enemy cavalry are active at super high speeds. Once they spotted the enemy, they would launch an attack. They would use airborne missiles to attack without slowing down at all.
If you don't encounter the enemy, you can patrol freely and look for targets, especially the enemy's mobile camps and supply lines.
If you can track, you can try tracking, etc.
The strategic characteristic is: the enemy must be kept in turmoil, and it is best to make them lose their composure!
"Good idea!" Li Liang finally smiled. He liked to take the initiative, but then he had a question. Li Liang turned to the Air Force Commander Yun Qide: "How many planes do we have now, especially fighter jets?"
"A total of 14,673 fighters. The remaining 412 are reconnaissance aircraft, military transport aircraft, etc. The fighters include: the latest combat aircraft, 10 Magic Eagle 2 enhanced models, purchased from Shangguo at the beginning of the year. 30 Magic Eagle 1 models, purchased from Shangguo in the middle of last year. The fighter jets include..."
"Alright!" Li Liang interrupted the other party, "Make a plan immediately and report anything you need. Go ahead, don't waste time here!"
"Yes." Yun Qide left immediately, but with joy on his face - he, as the commander-in-chief of the Air Force, finally had a chance!
Unlike the Shang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom does attach importance to the air force, but it is far less than that of the army.
The most depressed people in Tang State are probably the navy generals. Tang State... has no coastal territory! All the coastal lands have been packed up by Shang State, and they extend all the way to the north to the Nielong Secret Realm. However, Tang State still established a navy, but the usual training location of these navy is the lake!
Obviously, in this world full of masters, the navy in the lake is equivalent to the boy scout!
But after Yun Qide returned to the air force base, he immediately summoned all the officers to discuss. Influenced by the Shang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom also had a staff department, but it was a little small and fragmented.
A strategy was quickly developed:
The latest and greatest dogfighting aircraft patrol the skies in search of skilled fighters.
The best fighters are responsible for searching, attacking, tracking, and reconnaissance, and they do the most work. Reconnaissance aircraft assist, but reconnaissance aircraft need to be protected by combat aircraft.
