Chapter 58: Equipment Demonstrates Power on the Battlefield
In this extremely fierce war, our army demonstrated amazing material transportation capabilities, which is a qualitative leap and improvement compared to history!
The military transport team also used advanced airships for front-line transportation.
Whenever night falls, these airships will quietly take off and transport precious ammunition and supplies to the front line.
It is worth noting that due to the relatively low usage rate of radar on the Korean battlefield, only a few enemy warships were equipped with this equipment, and the ground radar network was mainly deployed within the enemy's sphere of influence, and it was still impossible to cover and fully monitor our occupied areas.
The military transport team discovered that when the airships flew to an altitude of more than 8000 meters at night, enemy aircraft on the front line could basically not detect their presence!
However, this also brings a problem, that is, at this altitude, the airship's carrying capacity cannot reach full load.
However, the biggest risk lies in the landing phase of the airship.
In fact, almost all of the airships shot down on the Korean battlefield were attacked during landing.
Although the airship has done an excellent job in fire safety, even if it is attacked by incendiary bombs from enemy aircraft, it will not completely burn up, but will be able to land slowly and smoothly.
But once the airships landed after being attacked, they would never have a chance to take off again.
At first, the enemy planes only considered the mission accomplished by shooting down an airship, but gradually they discovered that the downed airships could be used again after repairs. From then on, after the fighter planes launched an attack, they were followed by ruthless groups of bombers.
Fortunately, military personnel had already safely evacuated the scene before the bombing began.
After all, it is impossible for bombers to cruise along the front line with fighters, and they can only take off hastily after encountering them.
As the war progressed, the airship transportation strategy changed in the later stages.
Instead of risking transporting supplies directly to dangerous areas near the front lines, they choose to unload them in safe areas far away from the battlefield.
The goods will then be transferred to the front-line troops.
At the same time, the use of half-track trucks becomes more interesting.
In the past, when enemy planes attacked, logistics transport convoys had almost no ability to fight back and could only sit and wait for death.
However, today, the military has cleverly installed anti-aircraft weapons on the carriages of half-track trucks. The stability provided by the excellent chassis and wide tracks allows anti-aircraft guns to attack directly from inside the carriage.
In this way, although wheeled trucks still undertake the main transportation tasks, the transport teams equipped with anti-aircraft guns are no longer lambs to be slaughtered.
Enemy planes no longer dared to attack the convoy alone.
The advantages of half-track trucks were fully utilized on the front line.
Its excellent off-road performance and rapid maneuverability enable various heavy weapons and equipment to follow the soldiers across mountains and rivers.
Trucks equipped with artillery have become a powerful support force on the battlefield. They adopt a hit-and-run tactic, which often makes the enemy's counterattacks fail and only hit an empty area.
The half-track truck still became the universal weapon carrying platform of our army, but its own freight function was abandoned.
The impact of all these seemingly small changes is huge.
In just one month, tens of thousands of coalition troops on the front line were wiped out.
The battle line advanced rapidly all the way to the 38th parallel. At this time, the battle area between the enemy and us had already revolved around Seoul.
Faced with our army's astonishing advance speed, the enemy coalition forces were shocked and their overall command system fell into chaos.
However, Seoul was of extraordinary importance to them, and Mike could not tolerate giving up the city in just one month, so he firmly ordered all personnel to defend Seoul.
Thanks to the armed half-track trucks, our army has powerful firepower on the front line. At the same time, due to changes in logistics, our army does not need to wait for a long time for artillery shells and supplies after a saturation attack as in the past.
At the same time, the air battlefield was in a stalemate, with neither side gaining absolute air superiority. It became a place where the MiGs and Sabres competed with each other.
Seeing this situation, our military leaders did not rush to launch an offensive, but instead adopted a tactic of penetration and encirclement, supplemented by fierce artillery bombardment.
For a time, the area around Seoul became a bloody and cruel meat grinder. Due to the order to hold on to Seoul, the Allied forces could neither retreat nor move to the mountainous areas to fight. They could only hide among the ruins all day long, enduring a continuous stream of artillery bombardment from our side, and the number of casualties increased day by day.
In just two months, even the proud Mike could not hold on any longer. Accountability from the White House forced him to order the withdrawal of troops from Seoul and the establishment of a defensive line in the rear.
At this point, the entire Seoul was completely controlled by our army, and the enemy and our side began to confront each other in the Pyeongtaek and Pyeongchang areas.
When the country heard the news of the successful capture of the enemy's capital, the whole country celebrated with great excitement.
This shocking news even surprised other countries. Even a powerful country like the Soviet Union found it hard to believe.
Not long after, the airship factory held an important reception event.
A Soviet delegation visited.
Wang Ze stood in the crowd, watching this group of people walk into the airship factory with cold eyes.
He knew that these foreigners came here because of the trucks and airships equipped by the front line.
When the tour was over, a Soviet researcher in the group kept muttering to himself: "How on earth was this achieved? It's unbelievable!"
That night, members of the Soviet delegation gathered together for an intense discussion.
One of the Soviets in charge of technology said excitedly
"We must get this material. It's a miracle! Not only does it have extremely high tensile resistance, it's also very wear-resistant and lightweight. This is definitely an ideal material for us to make airplanes! We must get it no matter what!"
Others nodded in agreement, and someone continued
"Okay, I've already made an agreement with them. We'll go visit their steel plant tomorrow. That's where that magical material is produced."
Another person exclaimed: "It's incredible that such a poor and backward agricultural country can develop such a powerful material."
Finally, someone concluded: "This material can only truly realize its great potential and value if it is in our hands."
The next morning, as soon as the sun rose, the Soviet delegation could not wait to follow the organizers to visit the steel plant.
Along the way, they were very excited and full of anticipation for everything they were about to see.
But the result of this visit disappointed them greatly.
Although the technicians were asked to explain how to manufacture such materials and their structure at the request of the organization, they all hesitated and said they knew nothing.
This made the Soviet delegation and people in the organization very unhappy.
The technicians also felt very aggrieved because they really didn't know the reason.
After all, who could have imagined that steel would change so much after being soaked in water for a few days?
They really told the truth, but you don’t believe it!!!
After the Soviet delegation left, the organization immediately sent people to investigate and first asked to understand the production process.
The visitor's tough attitude forced Wang Ze to take action.
At that time, there were many people in the organization who were pro-Soviet.
This situation continued until the Sino-Soviet relations broke down.
