    "I know that after being tested on the battlefield, many weapons must have some problems. The Ministry of Army can negotiate with research institutions and arsenals to resolve these problems!" Wang Yuze said.  Although every weapon will undergo a long period of testing from development to mass production.  But once it is applied to the battlefield, there will still be more or less problems, and these need to be improved in subsequent manufacturing.

    "The problems that Marshal Zhao Bowen responded to are mainly related to the armored forces. First, the tank armor of the armored forces is too weak. In this battle of San Luis Potosi, the 2nd Armored Brigade was bombarded by US anti-tank guns.  It was a serious loss. Although new tactics were adopted and victory was achieved, we need to pay attention to the problems revealed here. When facing the US anti-tank gun, the frontal armor of the TB' Cheetah and medium tanks can be  It can resist the US anti-tank guns at a distance of two hundred meters. But the Tg' Wolf, the light tank can only ensure its own safety by retreating beyond the US military's effective range of 300 meters. The armor of the Tg' type armored vehicle is even weaker.  At a distance of 200 meters, it can¡¯t even withstand the firing of US anti-tank guns. Therefore, Marshal Zhao Bowen suggested that we should not install more advanced tanks and armored vehicles, especially those with thicker armor. Otherwise, once resisted,  If we cannot stop the enemy's anti-tank weapons, our armored forces will be suppressed!" Cai Yun said.  Although the Chinese Army's armored forces eventually won the Battle of San Luis Potosi, this was because the performance of the US military's anti-tank weapons was not high and their number was relatively small.  Once the United States, with its strong industrial strength, develops more powerful anti-tank weapons and equips them on a large scale, the Chinese Army's armored forces will be greatly suppressed.

    "So, how does the Ministry of War plan to solve this problem?" Wang Yuze asked.

    "The 96 tank being developed by the research institute under the Ministry of War has reached the testing stage. Compared with the TB' Cheetah tank, the 96 tank has increased in weight by 4 tons, reaching '. And it uses the latest armor. Although  The frontal armor is only 50 mm thicker than the TB' Cheetah, and the medium tank is 7 mm thinner, but the armor performance is stronger, basically equivalent to about 75 mm steel plate. At the same time, the tank gun of the 96 tank is 45 times the caliber of the 57  The effective range of the mm tank gun is about 800 meters. It can penetrate 30mm steel plates at a distance of 800 meters. After the distance is close to 500 meters, it can penetrate 50mm steel plates. At a distance of 200 meters, it can penetrate  75mm steel plate. At the same time, due to the replacement of the latest engine, the power of the tank has reached 240 horsepower. The tank's maximum road speed has reached 35 kilometers per hour, and the maximum off-road speed is also about 5 kilometers per hour. All performances are better than TB  The Cheetah, a medium tank, has improved a lot. The Ministry of War plans to stop manufacturing the Cheetah, a medium tank, and instead focus on producing tanks." Cai Yun said.

    "Yes. Since the performance of the 96 tank can lead the TB'Cheetah, there are so many tanks. Then

    There is no need to produce TB'Cheetah tanks anymore.  In addition to giving priority to meeting consumption on the American battlefield, the tanks produced also began to be gradually replaced by domestic troops.  We're going to war against the Russians next year, so this will come in handy then!  Wang Yuze said. Since the Americans have used anti-tank weapons on the battlefield, Russia, which is also a member of the Allied Powers, will definitely also be equipped with anti-tank weapons.

    "Yes, Your Majesty! In addition, we plan to improve the follow-up TP 'Wild Wolf' light tank and use new armor to increase the speed of the tank and the power of the artillery!" Cai Yun continued.

    Wang Yuze nodded and agreed to the suggestion.  He has always been supportive of new weapons.  Talent is the most important compared to weapons.  Being able to use new weapons to destroy the enemy at the minimum cost is the best result.

    "The Type armored vehicle will also be upgraded. Moreover, although the Type armored vehicle is fast

    But the off-road performance is not very strong.  The Ministry of the Army plans to develop a tracked armored vehicle to enhance the cross-country performance of mechanized infantry!  "Cai Yun said.

    "Yes! Z-type armored vehicles have superior performance in areas with good traffic conditions, but in field situations, tracked armored vehicles have the best performance!" Wang Yuze agreed with this suggestion

    "Finally, based on the analysis of the American battlefield, we need a fighter aircraft that can stay in the air for a long time and provide strong firepower to the ground. The current FB'Haitongqing, a fighter, has too weak ground firepower. And the FH5'Haitongqing  , although the dive bomber is very powerful, it only has one external hardpoint and can only carry one heavy aerial bomb under the belly. It is very effective against large targets or fortresses. But the effect of fire support for infantry is not very obvious.  The 45' Hongyan, a bomber, has a large bomb load, but its bombing accuracy is high.!

    Therefore, the Army hopes to obtain a specialized ground attack fighter.  If the Air Force does not have a suitable fleet, the War Department plans to develop its own fighter aircraft.??Form the Army Aviation Corps!  "Chief of General Staff Cai Yun said. In addition to the fleet, the Navy now also has naval aviation, which makes the Army very enthusiastic. From the perspective of the battlefield, the Army also needs a fire support fighter rather than relying entirely on the Air Force.

    "Your Majesty, Chief of General Staff! The Air Force has already made a preliminary plan. It is expected that by the first half of next year, we will be able to produce a prototype that meets the needs of the Army!" Air Force Commander General Long Feiyu said quickly.  The time for the establishment of the Imperial Air Force is already over. If the army and navy each establish their own aviation forces, the strength of the air force will be further weakened.  If the Ministry of Air Force is to be established, I don¡¯t know how long it will take until the Year of the Monkey.

    "Oh? Does the Air Force already have a plan? What kind of aircraft is it?" Wang Yuze also became interested.  He knew that it was imminent for the Army to establish its own aviation force.  The development direction of the Air Force is not these tactical aircraft, but more powerful strategic aircraft.  It's just that the current technology cannot support the development of strategic air force.

    "Your Majesty, based on the needs of the Army, the Air Force has designed a Q1' Night Owl, an attack aircraft, or what can be called a ground attack aircraft. The Q1' Night Owl, an attack aircraft, is 8 meters long, 785 meters high, and has wings  The wingspan is 105 meters. The empty weight is 120 kilograms, and the maximum take-off weight is 1,650 kilograms. It has a bi-wing structure, a maximum speed of 220 kilometers per hour, an endurance of 4 hours, and a combat radius of 400 kilometers. In addition, the structure of the airframe has been  Reinforcement, 8 mm thick armor is installed on key locations such as the belly, engine and mailbox, which can withstand anti-aircraft machine gun fire and anti-aircraft gun fragments. Of course, if it is directly hit by an anti-aircraft gun, it will still be unable to withstand it. Q1'  Night Owl, the attack aircraft's armament is a 20mm cannon with 200 rounds of ammunition. Two 792mm aviation machine guns with 400 rounds of ammunition. There are 4 external hardpoints under the wings, which can carry 4 25kg aviation bombs.  bomb or two 50-kilogram aerial bombs! Now the prototype has been manufactured and is undergoing test flights. It is expected to be mass-produced in a few months!" Air Force Commander General Long Feiyu said.

    "Okay! The Air Force will next step up the development of Q1'Night Owl, an attack aircraft, and strive to start mass production before next spring. This kind of aircraft will provide great support in combat against the army. Q1'Night Owl,  After the attack aircraft is successfully developed, the Air Force will still be responsible for equipping it for the time being. However, His Majesty the Air Force will cooperate with the Army in the battle!" Wang Yuze said.  The Air Force has already developed this kind of fighter jet, so it's hard for him to take the credit from the Air Force.  However, when technology advances further and a long-range strategic air force can be successfully developed, the air force's focus will slowly shift to the strategic air force.  The Army Aviation Corps will also be formed to provide ground support aircraft.

    "Yes, Your Majesty! I guarantee that the Night Owl attack aircraft will be mass-produced in Q1 next spring!" General Long Feiyu said quickly.

    Seeing that Wang Yuze had made a decision, Chief of General Staff Cai Yun had no choice but to stop mentioning the formation of the Army Aviation Corps.

    On the North American battlefield, because the Chinese army has recovered Mexico, at least most of the Mexican territory has been recovered, and only a few areas in the northwest still have US troops.  However, this no longer affects the overall situation.  The Mexican battlefield was also officially renamed the North American battlefield.  The top commander of the North American battlefield is also held by Army Secretary Marshal Zhao Bowen.  And his mission is to command more than two million Chinese troops and Japanese and Korean mercenaries in North America to invade the United States and completely destroy the United States.  However, in order to defend enough, the Americans also showed great courage and made a lot of preparations.  It is not that difficult to invade the United States and destroy it.

    At the end of September, the Chinese army advanced to the border area between the United States and Mexico.  With the arrival of various ministries, a large number of field airfields also began to be constructed.  Large amounts of combat supplies are also being shipped from Puerto Vallarta to the U.S-Mexico border.  The clouds of war over the border between the United States and Mexico are getting thicker.  There is no doubt that the Chinese army will soon attack the United States and bring the war to the United States.  However, no one can guarantee whether the US military will be able to withstand the attack of the Chinese army.  Even though the US military has built continuous fortifications and deployed heavy troops on the north bank of the Rio Grande on the border between the United States and Mexico.  They still don't have much chance of winning.  After all, the US military has suffered enough at the hands of the Chinese army in previous wars!
