Chapter 283 Forming an Expeditionary Army One

Wang Jiuling launched another attack on the British. In addition to the military, which reassured him, the most important thing was that the Qin State's economic situation was good. In just one year since the establishment of the Qin State, the Qin State's economy has achieved gratifying development.

First of all, Jiaozhou was controlled in 33 years. Jingzhou and Jizhou were taken from Siam. Before the war against the British, they stabilized and developed to the present in one year. It can be said to be very good, especially Jingzhou, which is located in the hinterland.

Developed industry and developed agriculture

The economic development of Jizhou, Qingzhou and Singapore is very good. Although Wang Jiuling cleared hundreds of thousands of Indian Asans and other foreigners when they were captured, their number was not large, and the Malay natives were only

There are only 2 million. In addition to the original Chinese, Wang Jiuling later moved another 3 million. Now, after half a year of development, the economy of these places has become as stable as Jiaozhou and Jingzhou. Not to mention that there is still the First Army here. What a horse

The people who come here can't afford to rebel. If they dare to rebel, Wang Jiuling has stabilized. With them, it doesn't matter without them. He doesn't mind killing them all.

As for Youzhou, which is close to Yunnan, and Yuzhou, Yongzhou, and Bingzhou at the foot of the Himalayas, there are about four million people in each state. At the same time, these places are guarded by the Second and Third Group Armies. Wang Jiuling is not worried about the collusion of the Burmese scattered in the three states.

The British rebelled, but Wang Jiuling completely disrupted their living together with the Han people who had migrated there, and asked them to change their surnames to Chinese and speak Chinese.

The most unstable place in the Qin State is Yizhou. There are 8 million Burmese people here and only 2 million Han people. Therefore, Wang Jiuling placed most of Li Huixian's Fourth Army in Yizhou and in Jingzhou.

There is only one army

This time the attack on Borneo was not carried out by these four armies, but by a newly organized expeditionary force of 100,000 people, and the soldiers and generals were all drawn from various ministries.

They include six infantry divisions, each with about 12,000 people, and one armored division with 11,000 people. This attack focuses on mobility, so there are a large number of self-propelled artillery this time. Wang Jiuling organized them into a division. They have 75mm

Light self-propelled artillery and 105 mm. These self-propelled artillery are all enclosed. There is also a 20 mm anti-aircraft machine gun on the roof for air defense.

Self-propelled artillery (un) is an artillery that is integrated with the chassis of a vehicle and can move on its own. Self-propelled artillery has good cross-country performance and can enter and exit positions quickly. Most of them have armor protection and have strong battlefield survivability. Some self-propelled artillery can also be floated, which is more conducive to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Intermittent fire support is implemented to make the combat coordination between artillery, armored forces, and motorized infantry closer. Self-propelled artillery is mainly composed of weapon systems, chassis parts and armored car bodies. In addition to being classified by gun type, self-propelled artillery can also be classified according to the structural form of mobile devices.

It is crawler type, tire type and half-track type; according to armor protection, it is divided into fully armored type (enclosed type), semi-armored type (semi-enclosed type) and open type.

The first self-propelled artillery was invented by France in 1917. Shortly after the birth of the tank in World War I, the French thought to make the heavy towed gun more maneuverable and able to quickly move under various terrain conditions.

Position, a field gun is installed on a tracked tank chassis to provide mobile cross-country performance. However, the self-propelled gun at this time has no armor protection and is only suitable for fire support of infantry.

The world's first turret-type self-propelled artillery with armor protection was made by the Germans. The towed anti-tank guns that emerged in World War I were poor in mobility and protection. Germany believed that the only way to make these artillery run

It must be as fast as the enemy tank in order to effectively fight against the tank. In addition, because the artillery caliber of the early tanks is small and the firepower is weak, there is also a need for a tank that can accompany the tank, provide fire support for the tank, and have certain protective properties.

Artillery In September 1939, Nazi Germany occupied Czechoslovakia and obtained a large number of Czech-made 47mm anti-tank guns with relatively superior performance at the time. The Alkaite Company in Berlin, Germany, installed this gun on the T-1 tank plate and designed and manufactured it.

It has a box-shaped armored turret with an open back. The turret cannot rotate, but the gun can turn left and right 15 degrees. Alkaite Company manufactured the world's first self-propelled anti-tank gun in 1939, and it has good results in actual combat. Later, Germany developed

t─iii, "Ferdinand", "Black Panther" and other self-propelled anti-tank guns with larger caliber and stronger firepower were widely used in World War II. Since self-propelled anti-tank guns were mostly used to accompany tank attacks and operations,

Therefore, it is also called "assault artillery". Following Germany, the Soviet Union, Britain, the United States and other countries also developed assault artillery similar to Germany's.

The types of self-propelled artillery are: self-propelled artillery. Self-propelled artillery can be divided into heavy, medium and light types according to weight; it can be divided into wheeled and tracked according to the mode of travel; it can be divided into fully armored (enclosed) according to the degree of armor protection.

, semi-armored (semi-enclosed) and open; according to the type of artillery, it can be divided into self-propelled cannon, self-propelled howitzer, self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, self-propelled anti-tank gun, self-propelled recoilless rifle, self-propelled mortar, etc.

Self-propelled artillery also includes rocket launchers, self-propelled mortars, etc. that we know. Conventional warfare in later generations places great emphasis on mobility, so self-propelled artillery has a faint tendency to replace towed artillery. Naturally, Wang Jiuling cannot lag behind. In fact, Wang Jiuling is very interested in artillery and tanks.

His real interest comes from playing a game called World of Tanks, which introduces tanks and self-propelled artillery from various major World War II countries. Wang Jiuling likes to use artillery to aim at others and kill them, but Wang Jiuling knows that artillery also needs tanks.

Only with the same speed and protection can it play a greater role on the battlefield, so Wang Jiuling developed a fully enclosed self-phased artillery from the beginning, using full tracks or wheels.

The difference between tanks and self-propelled artillery is mainly due to their different uses. In terms of structural performance, there are the following points: 1. Firepower: Tanks are direct-aiming weapons, which require a larger direct-aiming distance, but do not require a maximum range.

High, so a tank gun is a cannon, and its elevation angle is generally about minus five to plus twenty degrees; self-propelled artillery mainly uses indirect aiming, and has higher requirements for the maximum range. Except for self-propelled anti-tank guns, it does not have high requirements for direct aiming distance.

, so self-propelled artillery is mainly howitzers, cannons, howitzers, mortars, etc. The pitch angle of artillery is generally between 0 degrees and 30 degrees, and some can reach 90 degrees (self-propelled anti-aircraft guns)

Fire control: Tanks are about discovering the enemy first, firing first, and hitting the enemy with the first shot. Therefore, tanks pay more attention to how to find the enemy first and fire quickly. There are also fire control systems such as image stabilization, and there is also the ability to shoot while moving.

Ability, tanks focus on "knowing the enemy"; self-propelled artillery generally cannot see the target. The target is usually notified by the observation post or superiors, but it also pays attention to the transition time between march and battle. Although the enemy cannot be seen, if it is known

Geographical location, and knowing where the target is, the fire control system can quickly calculate the shooting points. Therefore, modern self-propelled artillery generally has north-seeking devices such as laser gyros, and accurately senses its own position through various means such as satellite positioning, and then

You can fire quickly after reporting the target. The most important thing about self-propelled artillery is "confidant"

3. Protection: The tank is an impact weapon, and the attack mainly comes from the front, so the front armor of the tank is very thick, which can reach dozens of centimeters; the self-propelled artillery is a long-range support weapon, and the attack mainly comes from the enemy's long-range artillery fire, that is, the probability is equal from all sides.

Shell fragments, so the armor on the front, rear, left and right of the self-propelled gun is of equal thickness and very thin

4. Mobility: For tactical requirements, tanks need fast and flexible maneuvers, and the engine is required to provide strong acceleration and large ton power; self-propelled artillery does not have excessive requirements for this, and generally uses tank engines with similar chassis or other types.

The engine can be used. In fact, since the tank is heavier than the self-propelled artillery and does not have an advantage in terms of power per ton, the mobility of the tank is not better than that of the self-propelled artillery.
