Chapter 435: Who says that the sun won’t rise if Southeast Asia is too south?
After feeling the shock of the firepower from the artillery brigade, Gu Chengyuan almost had a cursory look at the subsequent special operations brigade, engineering brigade, and service support brigade.
After all, these brigades have the Spark Commando, Logistics Support Battalion, and Combat Support Battalion in front, and their functional positioning is almost the same, except that the breadth and depth have increased.
But when he saw the Airborne Assault Brigade, Gu Chengyuan couldn't help but click on it and take a closer look.
He was familiar with the term "Air Assault Brigade" and had seen related reports on the Internet before, but they all showed that Zhou Bang was still groping in the dark and the system was not yet fully mature.
If this airborne assault brigade of the system is a mature version, it can undoubtedly prove from the side that his system army is ahead of Zhou Bang's regular army!
Air Assault Brigade:
(24) 1 armed reconnaissance helicopter battalion: Z-19 armed reconnaissance helicopters
Z-19 armed reconnaissance helicopter
(48) 2 armed helicopter battalions: Z-10 armed attack helicopters
Z-10 armed attack helicopter
（24架）1个运输直升机营：直-20战术通用直升机（正常情况下会搭载11到12名全副武装的士兵（留有一定功率剩余以应对可能发生的意外），在紧急情况下，也具备搭载18到20名人员的能力。）
(48) 2 transport helicopter battalions: The Z-8L (13-ton medium transport helicopter) has an openable hatch at the rear, which can carry the "Lynx" series all-terrain vehicles and serve as a heavy firepower platform for the airborne infantry of the brigade.
Z-8L
3个步兵营：每个班10人，武器配备为9个08式单兵火箭筒，一个PBP-201型60mm迫击炮，两挺QJB-201式班用机枪，7把191突击步枪
1个支援保障营：装备直-20电子战直升机4架，直-9轻型运输直升机12架
The entire air assault brigade has a total of 160 helicopters? ?
After Gu Chengyuan finished the calculation, his first reaction was disbelief. He then calculated it again, and it was still 160!
What the hell!
If all these fly up, they will cover the sky and the earth, right? ? ?
Helicopters are like clouds and air-to-ground missiles are like rain. Just thinking about this scene makes it feel like a painting!
No wonder the price of an airborne assault brigade is on par with that of a heavy combined force brigade. This is why it is so expensive!
There is also infantry firepower, which seems to be stronger than the infantry of the combined brigade!
It is true that every soldier has a single rocket launcher, but the question is, will carrying so many single-soldier rocket launchers not affect combat?
Based on Gu Chengyuan's own understanding of Zhou Bang's troops, although there are infantry squads carrying individual rocket launchers, just like machine gunners, they are counted in the organization, with a maximum of two in a squad.
So it's an equipment issue?
With this question in mind, Gu Chengyuan opened the equipment column of the infantry squad, mainly looking at the so-called Type 08 individual rocket launcher and PBP-201 60mm mortar.
Type 08 individual rocket launcher: Made of special fiberglass material, it adopts a disposable design, has a caliber of 80mm and weighs only 7.8kg.
Type 08 individual rocket launcher
OK, case solved...
Seeing this, Gu Chengyuan already understood why the Type 08 rocket launcher does not occupy the organization. It is light in weight, only 7.8kg, and the key is that it is disposable. It can be thrown away after firing, and does not take up space.
I wonder if this Type 08 rocket launcher can be promoted to the infantry units of the entire army?
To be honest, the Type 08 rocket launcher, which is currently only equipped by the infantry of the Air Assault Brigade, has caused Gu Chengyuan's fear of insufficient firepower to recur.
While thinking about the feasibility, Gu Chengyuan once again turned his attention to the individual mortar.
PBP-201 60mm light mortar
PBP-201 60mm light mortar: Made of titanium alloy, with a total weight of 8.5kg, it is easy to carry and quickly deploy.
Equipped with a red dot sight and a LCD angle display, it can receive target parameters from small drones and other reconnaissance equipment, and can also perform satellite guidance when using smart ammunition.
Not a buddy?
Gu Chengyuan could accept the red dot aiming and LCD screen, but he was confused by the last four words "satellite guidance".
Mortar? Satellite guided? ?
Regardless of whether it can be used under the current conditions, Gu Chengyuan just wants to know who is so talented to connect the two entries together? ?
The explosion is comparable to basketball and chicken...
Can other armies be played this way?
...
After flipping through it, Gu Chengyuan was so excited when he saw the template of the entire group army. A sense of heroism that "all the military forces in the world are within my reach" rushed from his heart to his brain!
If the entire army template can be exchanged, we cannot say whether we can recapture it, but we can definitely achieve the strategic goal of radiating to the southwest.
Even if we open our minds, it is not necessary to restrict all the troops to the territory of Zhou State, with a total population of 25 billion.
You must know that no matter before or after the apocalypse, Zhou Bang can definitely be called a hell-level map, and it is extremely difficult to pass it!
Instead of spending all the precious early development time in this hell-level copy, it would be better to send one or two synthetic brigades south to go abroad and pick up French fries.
As for zombies, there is no distinction between Zhoubang zombies and Southeast Asian zombies. The benefits of killing them should be similar.
What's more, compared with the northeastern region of Zhou State, Southeast Asia is also a natural granary with abundant products, fertile land, and the ability to achieve seven harvests in two years, which is very suitable for large-scale rice cultivation!
Now that we have entered the group army stage, the chess pieces have become bigger, and of course the chessboard must also become bigger. Thinking can no longer be limited to one city or one province. Even if it is the end of the world, our thoughts must be in line with international standards!
It is relatively convenient for Ye Province to go south to go abroad. We only need to open up the main transportation routes in Xiguang Province, and the troops can march straight down!
Even if Xiguang Province is the permanent war preparation province of the Zhou State, I am afraid that the strength of the official army will not be too weak..
But no matter how strong the resistance to going south is, it is probably not as strong as that to going north!
...
Ever since Gu Chengyuan confirmed that the system would be upgraded to a group army template, he has been thinking about the next strategy.
Considering the size of the army group, placing all of it in one province would undoubtedly be a retreat, so expansion became the main theme of the army's development in the next stage.
Therefore, where to expand and in which direction to focus the strategic focus became Gu Chengyuan’s primary consideration.
In addition to zombie mutants, the most important factor affecting this issue is another force that absolutely cannot be ignored, and that is Zhou Bang’s regular army!
You should know that the total population is as high as 25 billion. As one of the two emperors in the world, the Zhou Dynasty has maintained a standing force of about 400 million on land, sea and air. According to public information, the total number of nuclear warheads exceeds 2000. Its combat effectiveness is simply amazing!
The reason why he could develop smoothly without any hindrance was entirely because he had chosen a good map at the beginning. He had chosen the southwest-central region, which happened to be in a blank area of Zhou Bang's military distribution, so he played in the center and flourished.
However, it would be more difficult to squeeze into other places. Whether going north, retreating west, or advancing east, the resistance would be quite great, and they would inevitably face the official army of the Zhou State.
The western war zone encountered during the westward retreat is likely to have suffered the least damage, because the provinces of western Tibet, Xinjiang, Jiangsu, Gansu, and Haiqing are vast and sparsely populated with low population density.
As for going north and east, there is no need to say more. Both are the economic and cultural centers of the Zhou State and are important military bases.
As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Zhou Dynasty court is no pushover. Out of national justice, they may allow me to fill the gap, but if I really want to climb over Zhou Dynasty's head, I will probably be hit by a nuclear bomb!
But you must never treat reality as a work of art, and expect Zhou Bang to let you level up like in a game, gradually increasing the number of troops at each level.
The words “the first battle is the decisive battle” are no joke.
Therefore, in Gu Chengyuan’s current plan, Southeast Asian countries may be a good breakthrough point.
While not overly stimulating the Zhou Dynasty court, it can also win development time and resources.
The food production capacity is definitely higher than that of the Yunye Plateau where they are, and the number of zombies is also quite large!
The most important thing is that it is weak!
If we can’t deal with the Zhou Dynasty court now, how can we deal with these post-apocalyptic South Asian countries?
Do you have nuclear bombs? You dare to resist?
Is it possible to store up grain in Southeast Asia?
War system + the legacy of the Third Line Project in several southern provinces + zombies/labor in Southeast Asia + huge amounts of food =?
...
I heard that Southeast Asia is rich in generals?
I just don't know how he compares to me, a general?
...
However, this is only Gu Chengyuan's initial idea for the development of the group army. How it will develop specifically depends on the subsequent investigation.
What if Zhou Bang’s regular army is pulled?
But no matter what, Gu Chengyuan's strategy of invading and saving Southeast Asia will not change. It is just a matter of how much resources to invest.
Who says Southeast Asia is too south to wait for the sun to rise?
I am also willing to contribute to the people there!
