The Tang Empire's naval aviation, in conjunction with the land-based aviation, failed to paralyze all the Mirage Air Force airports on the South Island. How could the Lions Empire's navy be able to paralyze all the airports on Long Island?
They don't even know how many airports there are on Dragon Island. Likewise, they don't know what kind of monsters are deployed on Dragon Island.
You know, as the most secret industrial base of the Tang Empire, the fighter jets at Longdao Airport are generally more advanced than the air defense fighter units deployed in Chang'an!
This is not to scare people. Long Island’s fighter force was the first batch to be equipped with MiG-21 and F4 Phantoms, which have all-weather combat capabilities. The ammunition depot is filled with Thunderbolt air-to-air missiles.
If you want to say that intercepting the F15 may be a bit more troublesome, intercepting things like the Sea Breathing Fire and the Sea Hurricane can really be said to be a killing opportunity.
After all, the decision-makers of the Lions Empire don't know about these advanced weapons and equipment, so let's forgive their arrogance and recklessness.
But even the Lions Empire has established a radar air defense network that covers almost the whole country. Most aircraft will be detected when they enter the airspace or even approach the airspace. The decision makers of Lions have no reason to think that the Tang Empire does not have similar equipment.
Since a sneak attack by an aircraft will definitely be detected by radar, why bother approaching Dragon Island... As long as people have more than ten minutes to react, they can be ready to fight.
The Tang Army aircraft patrolling over Longdao seemed to be enough. They would come immediately and shoot down all the carrier-based aircraft of the Lions Empire.
Even if the opponent has no patrolling aircraft, a few emergency takeoffs are enough to drain the carrier-based aircraft of the Lines Empire.
"How can we succeed in a sneak attack?" The prime minister asked this question for everyone, for Lions I.
"Sea skimming flight!" Bromeier gave a plan that seemed feasible: "This time, the radar detection range will be greatly reduced and the opponent's reaction time will be shortened!"
"It's difficult! I know! But compared to a head-on battle with the Tang Empire's fleet, these difficulties seem to be nothing, right?" He then asked a question, causing everyone to fall into deep thought.
After skipping the most important plan implementation stage, Bloemeyer emphasized the follow-up issues: "Even if the plan succeeds, we must act quickly! Because fleets in other regions of the Tang Empire will immediately attack
Support from the direction of Longdao."
It seems that, in his opinion, the sneak attack has been successful now, and the next thing they need to consider is how to make trouble on Long Island.
They have no idea how many submarines the Tang Empire has cruising the sea, nor how many destroyers are patrolling near Long Island.
In short, Blomeier believed that as long as the port was attacked, sea and air supremacy would be within easy reach.
So what he is calculating are enemy reinforcements thousands of miles away: "I think that in the end, the Tang Empire will probably have two or so aircraft carriers assemble to launch a counterattack against us! This is the most dangerous moment,
But...even so, the pressure our naval fleet faces is only half or even a fraction of what was planned."
If according to his calculations, this is already Tianhu's start: he has sunk two aircraft carriers of the Tang Empire, paralyzed Longdao Airport, and tens of thousands of elite infantry have landed ashore... His Majesty the First Emperor cut the wires
, win the lottery.
"As for the land-based airport, the troops of the Tang Empire will also repair it as soon as possible... Therefore, the initial window of opportunity is not long, about two or three days..." He stretched out three fingers and ended
gave his own speech.
"This plan of yours won't work at all! It's completely based on the assumption that a sneak attack can be successful!" The first person to stand up and object was the army general.
In fact, you don't need to think about it to know that if the navy really succeeds in the sneak attack as planned, then it will be their turn to land and fight the Tang Empire's garrison.
If you think about it with your knees, you will know that their army actually does not have this ability: Just kidding, it is very difficult for the Tang Empire Army to land across the sea. How can their Army of Lines perform better?
Apart from anything else, how to ensure that your troops don't vomit to pieces when they cross the ocean and arrive at Dragon Island is already a huge problem.
In comparison, the Army seemed to be the only one who remained rational. Many people, including Lynes I, were attracted by the grand blueprint outlined by Blomyer.
That's right, severely damaging the Tang Empire's naval fleet and swallowing Dragon Island... As long as the sneak attack is successful, everything seems to be in order.
So...what are we waiting for now?
"So, have the specific plans of this plan been drawn up?" Lions I was already a little impatient. He had even seen the shocked eyes of other monarchs after hearing about his great victory.
On the first day of the war, the main fleet of the Tang Empire was wiped out! How crazy is this, and what kind of glory is it?
"I need more aircraft carriers! And as many carrier-based aircraft pilots as possible!" Blomeier made his request.
Since it is a sneak attack, he must invest as much force as possible at once. Large aircraft carriers and a large number of carrier-based aircraft are obviously the key to victory or defeat.
If the number of carrier-based aircraft in the first batch is increased to 200 or even more, Blomyer feels that things will be quite operable.
Another problem is how to ensure that such a large fleet will not be discovered by the guard ships of the Tang Empire.
This is actually the real problem. You must know that the destroyer warning circle of the Tang Empire and the outer warning range of submarines are much larger than the radar warning circle.
If the fleet is discovered in advance, a sneak attack will be out of the question, and the victory will be lost: the Lions Empire is equivalent to packaging the entire naval fleet and sending it to the Tang Empire in advance! Within the strike radius of land-based fighters and bombers
Internal activities, isn’t this seeking death?
But Lions I, who was ready to risk everything, no longer cared about so much. All he could think about now was how to develop and utilize Dragon Island after he occupied it.
Like his confidant Bloemeyer, he was also blinded by the beautiful result, causing him to instinctively ignore the difficult process in the middle.
"Find a way... squeeze out more funds and raw materials... launch two more aircraft carriers... the rise and fall of the empire can be determined in one fell swoop." Lions I looked at his prime minister and gave his order, which was equivalent to saying
