Chapter 44
"Didn't you notice?"
"Have you seen the Eagle Country Army in that war."
"Play any role?"
Zhang Wen asked.
The Gulf War can be said to have completely overturned the world's understanding of war.
The previous strategy of relying on vast territory for defense and counterattack failed completely.
Even the Eagle Country military didn't have a clear understanding of the Gulf War.
They prepared tens of thousands of body bags, but didn't end up using many.
What's more, during the Gulf War at that time, the conventional military weapons and equipment of the country opposite the Eagle Country were even better than the current army.
Except for not having nuclear weapons.
Zengxia said bluntly, "Receive the enemy troops, occupy the territory."
"Anything else besides that?"
"Nothing, right."
"They didn't even see many enemies."
Zhang Wen said.
Then, without waiting for Zengxia to answer, he said to himself, "The Eagle Country's Navy carrier-based aircraft and Air Force planes completely destroyed the Camel Country's Air Force."
"Missiles precisely struck the entire command chain."
"Satellites above the sky monitored their every move at all times."
"This is systematic warfare."
"Integrated warfare of sea, land, air, and space."
Zhang Wen finished speaking.
Zengxia was a bit dazed.
Suddenly, Zhang Wen changed the subject.
"However, if you want to win, I have a way."
"It just depends on whether you are willing to let me try."
"Equipment and military thinking all need to be changed."
"It just depends on whether you are willing to try."
Zhang Wen repeated it again.
Hearing such words, Zengxia immediately thought that if they still followed the old methods now, their strength would not get a qualitative improvement.
And letting Zhang Wen try, the loss, to be honest, wouldn't be that great.
Might as well treat a dead horse as a living one.
Anyway, Zhang Wen's identity and resume had no problems.
"Okay, I'll write a report immediately." Zengxia said immediately.
Watching Zengxia's departing figure, Zhang Wen sighed.
The Army of 10 years ago, it's hard; there wasn't much military budget, and the transformation was also a difficult one.
However, Zhang Wen wasn't completely without a way in his heart.
A full-fledged information-based synthetic brigade couldn't be built in this era.
He didn't believe he couldn't build a beggar version.
Taking advantage of the time Zengxia was out.
Zhang Wen immediately asked Cui Zhuren.
"Cui Zhuren, has our satellite network been successfully established?"
"It's established, but it hasn't reached scale yet. It's still in the experimental stage."
Cui Zhuren realized he had said the wrong thing as soon as he finished speaking.
"How did you know?"
Cui Zhuren asked in surprise.
Logically speaking, Zhang Wen had no news channel to know about this matter now.
"Need I say more? After the Yinhe incident, I don't believe the domestic military would dare to use the United States' GPS."
"Without developing our own satellites."
Zhang Wen said directly.
"With our character of not asking for help from others, it would be strange if we didn't do it ourselves."
"Calculating the time, it's probably these few years."
Zhang Wen explained.
"You kid, you're really smart."
Cui Zhuren looked at Zhang Wen with some surprise.
"Why? Do you want to use it?"
"Yes, if Zengxia's problem is to be solved, we must build a new army armed with new thinking and equipment."
"But with current technology, a full-fledged version is very difficult to achieve."
"And satellite and communication technology is the biggest hurdle."
"All military equipment must be integrated together through data links."
"A link that is not disturbed or spied on by anyone is a must."
Zhang Wen thought to himself, if it weren't for the fact that he had exchanged for communication-related technology for the drone earlier.
He would be at a loss now too.
Actually, the more critical point is that a synthetic brigade is simply too expensive.
In his previous life, even with the power of the whole country, they couldn't build the entire army into heavy synthetic brigades.
Let alone the country now, which is poor and blank.
Zhang Wen building a set of beggar-version auxiliary equipment isn't considered expensive.
After all, those expensive tanks, armored vehicles, anti-aircraft vehicles, etc., are all ready-made.
Or those not needed now, just need a little modification, naturally it won't cost much money.
At this time, Zengxia returned.
As soon as he returned, he pulled Zhang Wen and said, "Please rest assured, even if I have to pull the division commander's leg, I will definitely get him to agree."
Then he turned and left in a hurry.
Watching him like this, Zhang Wen knew that he had taken on this matter.
"Cui Zhuren, I'll go back to the factory to prepare first."
Cui Zhuren had to say okay and sent Zhang Wen back.
As soon as Zhang Wen went back, he headed straight for the Qingtianchang, where there was a workshop specifically left behind.
It was to deal with emergencies.
After returning, he found Chen Chuang, who was in charge of finance, and gave him a series of purchase orders.
All kinds of things had to be purchased one by one.
Zhang Wen was even afraid that the domestic Beidou application wouldn't be approved, so he specifically purchased a set of Eagle Country GPS.
Then he purchased some materials like altimeters, chips, etc.
And on Zengxia's side.
After returning to the base.
He immediately rushed to the division commander's office, and after finding he wasn't there.
He went to the division commander's dormitory immediately.
No one was there either, so he just blocked the door, waiting for the division commander to return.
After a long while, the division commander returned covered in dust.
He looked at Zengxia, who was squatting at the door and almost fell asleep.
Full of confusion.
"Little Zeng, Little Zeng, why are you sleeping here?"
The division commander quickly shook Zengxia awake.
"Division Commander! You're finally back!" Zengxia opened his eyes, found it was the division commander, and said happily.
"Yes, just got back. What's wrong with you?" The division commander asked with a confused look.
"Let's go inside and talk, let's go inside and talk."
Zengxia quickly led the division commander into the room.
"Division Commander, it's me, Old Zeng, I've failed the people."
Zengxia pretended to cry and said.
The division commander thought, isn't this a bad thing?
He quickly asked, "What exactly happened?"
"Division Commander, the Fierce Tiger Regiment's combat record is poor. When the major exercise with the Maoxiong Guo comes, we probably won't make it."
"You, what's wrong with you. No matter what, it shouldn't be like this; exercises are for finding problems, you're here after losing, what are you doing?"
The division commander was so angry when he heard this that he kicked him.
Zengxia, having been kicked, finally returned to his usual self.
"Division Commander, I'm telling you seriously, when I went to find Cui Zhuren. Do you know who I saw?"
Zengxia said excitedly.
The division commander was very confused: "What, I know Old Cui too, so, who did you see?"
"I saw Zhang Wen, the factory director of the Qingtianchang, the one from the whole army commendation, the South Sea incident."
The division commander remembered as soon as he heard it.
"Oh, oh, oh, I've heard of it, I heard that person is amazing, he was still a student and independently designed and manufactured a missile boat."
"A very powerful figure."
"But he builds warships, what does that have to do with you?"
The division commander looked puzzled.
"When I went in, I saw him playing with a kind of drone with Cui Zhuren, that thing is amazing."
"It makes no sound when it flies, and it can take photos. It's super powerful, I just thought it would be very useful for reconnaissance."
"So I thought about coming over to see if it could be added to the military equipment."
"And do you know what they said?"
Zengxia said excitedly.
"I don't know. Hurry up and tell me, don't keep me in suspense!" The division commander got angry seeing Zengxia like this, and kicked him again, which Zengxia nimbly dodged.
"They said this is just a toy, and the military version will take him a few years to develop."
"Look, what is called arrogance, such a powerful thing and they say it's not presentable."
"Ah, it's very powerful, but what are you doing coming to find me!"
The division commander asked in confusion.
"I haven't finished yet." Zengxia directly picked up the division commander's water cup and took a sip of water.
Then he said, "I told him about my predicament, but he said the drone couldn't help me."
"Ah." The division commander listened.
"And then?"
"Then he told me there is a way to greatly improve our combat effectiveness, but both thinking and equipment need to be changed."
"Ah?"
The division commander asked in surprise after hearing this.
"Is what he said true?"
