Since ancient times, war has been a form of struggle that emphasizes speed, breakthrough, defeat or annihilation, but with the development of human productive forces.

When firepower and defense have been greatly improved, but the corresponding communication and assault forces have not been developed accordingly, the battlefield will fall into relative static.

This situation began with the Midi Civil War and reached its extreme during World War I.

Both sides of the war were able to build a strong defense line, but at the same time they had no ability to break through the opponent’s defense line, and the war lost the beauty of the art of command and began a simple and cruel consumption of manpower and material resources.

At the height of trench warfare, for example, at the beginning of the First World War, the major belligerents were given larger calibers, longer ranges, and more powerful guns, machine guns with faster rates of fire, and very strong fortresses because of the Industrial Revolution.

At this time, the rapid assault force used by various countries is still cavalry, although the cavalry is fast, but its main attack method is still saber slashing and rifle shooting, and the protection ability of individual soldiers can be directly regarded as zero in the face of firepower at this time.

Corresponding to this, assault forces that were produced in industrial conditions and indeed put into service in war.

Tanks, in the first world war, were extremely slow, poor in firepower, good in protection, but extremely unstable in their own performance, frequent failures, and still did not have the combat effects that cavalry could achieve in the era of cold weapons.

Trench warfare occurs because the development of the attacker’s rapid assault force lags behind the development of the defender’s firepower and fortifications, so it has certain existence value.

It was the static attrition of trench warfare that made countries with advanced military theories begin to explore how to effectively and quickly break through, divide, encircle, annihilate or defeat the enemy in the era of aircraft and artillery, so that tanks began to truly enter the stage of history.

It can be said that trench warfare is the transition of mankind from agricultural warfare to industrial warfare, which greatly promoted the development of military theory and became a grand fan of later. The emergence of man’s system of war theory made it possible.

Since the trench war. The real industrial war began.

On the other hand, in the battle between the national army and the little devils, they basically maintained the basic characteristics of trench warfare, and the national army that is keen on fighting positional warfare does not mean that they really like to fight positional warfare.

But because in terms of firepower, mobility, and the quality of individual soldiers, they were far inferior to the little devils, and had to resort to positional warfare, trying to shorten the gap in strength with the enemy, and even drawing the enemy into the era of trench warfare.

But it is clear that such a battle worked during the First World War, but in the Second World War, such tactics were basically ineffective.

After the development of the First World War, the perfection of the theory, the rapid improvement of the performance of the tank, the aircraft can carry more bombs, and the mobility of the artillery has also been flying.

As a result, the traditional trench warfare is disappearing from the stage of history.

And the national army, which is still in the period of positional warfare, often has a rapid breakthrough in the position in the face of little devils with advanced weapons and equipment.

Of course, it is not that trench warfare is really ineffective, and the position fortifications built by the little devils with powerful firepower are often difficult to break through by the national army that is ten times the strength of the little devils.

And the so-called positional warfare, in the face of the powerful firepower of the independent field army, no matter how good the trenches can be directly leveled for you, the so-called positional warfare is often a joke.

“From a strategic point of view, Okamura Ningji now has no ability to take the initiative to attack, and can only shrink his forces, defend key areas, and control the lifeline to achieve the effect of connecting the entire main region of North China.”

From the perspective of the current North China Front, this is an irreproachable decision, after all, if the little devils do not concentrate their forces, then we will be able to eat the scattered little devils little by little.

Okamura Ninji’s preferential point was that he was able to quickly accept new things, and in order to strengthen the key defense, Okamura Ninji mobilized a large amount of cement and steel bars to build permanent fortifications.

At the same time, anti-tank barriers were constructed with reinforced concrete and combined with anti-tank trenches in an attempt to keep our tanks from approaching their positions.

Build a large number of anti-tank pillboxes, protect the anti-tank guns with heavy reinforced concrete to form a strong battery.

These ideas are very good, and even if I stand in Okamura’s point of view, I may not be able to do it better than Okamura. ”

Speaking of this, when he saw that Vice President Peng and everyone around him listened attentively, Ye Ming said more seriously:

But Okamura did not expect that the so-called defensive line would never be able to stop the torrent of steel, just as the blitzkrieg of the German Empire turned the Maginot of the Gallic chicken into one of the biggest jokes of the century.

The armored forces are not used to storm fortified units, nor are they used to fight positional warfare with the enemy, the mission of the armored forces is to assault.

If Okamura Ningji is given two years, if he builds a fortress from the Yellow River to the Taihang Mountains, but we don’t need to touch him at all, directly from the north, an armored force to attack Baoding in a large depth, enough to make the fortress collapse on the entire line. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Ming continued very seriously: “In this world, what can block tanks is either an airplane or a tank, or it is the most undesirable thing to use the lives of infantry to pile up tanks and rely on the defense line.

As for the defense line built by the little devil, one thing we must know is that from the day guns and artillery were born, war has actually entered an era of offensive and defensive imbalance, and attack is always stronger than defense.

No matter how strong the defense line, you can still block the artillery, which basically does not exist, and if it does exist, it is not a defense line, but a military base with a high security level. ”

When he said this, Ye Ming’s first thought was to sign in to the twelve-ton penetration bomb in the mall.

This bomb is capable of penetrating a reinforced concrete structure of hundreds of meters.

Moreover, the DF-15 missile he just signed in for can also easily destroy the so-called high-defense pillbox built on the position of the little devil.

Therefore, for the little devil’s turtle shell tactics, Ye Ming is also very happy, at least he doesn’t have to worry about accidentally injuring the people when the fire strikes. _
