Great Tang Kingdom, Linshui Port, the huge cranes were slowly turning, lifting one large box after another out of the freighter.
This was not because Tang Mo had already started using massive container shipping, but rather the Great Tang Group had covered the tanks with wooden boxes for secrecy, as a kind of deception.
The Great Tang Kingdom was seizing the opportunity of several countries entering full-scale war to expand its military: Tang Mo readied himself to take this chance to quickly establish four Armored Divisions, thus completely transforming the Great Tang's ard forces.
He intended to transform motorized troops into chanized troops, building upon tank divisions to form Armored Divisions, allowing the troops to better et real combat needs.
In fact, even in World War II, when Germany invented and widely used blitzkrieg tactics, tank divisions and Armored Divisions coexisted most of the ti.
A tank division made up entirely of tanks could exert the speedy assault of tanks to the extre, but due to the lack of infantry protection, its performance in siege-breaking was not that good.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the Armored Division was a more common organizational setup: a tank regint in cooperation with an infantry regint mounted in armored vehicles, supplented by artillery, to maximize the attack speed and siege-breaking ability. Following a tank division breaching the enemy's lines, they would imdiately engage to expand the victory.
Hence, according to Tang Mo's plan, his troops would initially build up four Armored Divisions based on the training provided by tank instructors, ensuring concentrated use of tanks and the capability to launch large-scale pincer attacks in two directions.
This was a colossal project, not just a matter of assigning tanks and armored vehicles to four units, but it also included a myriad of subsequent tasks of organizing support troops.
He needed to establish railway and motor transport units capable of supporting strategic troop movent, to help transport fuel, repair equipnt, spare parts, maintenance workers, and coordinate the departnts managing these personnel and materials.
At the sa ti, he also planned to increase the mobility of his traditional infantry as much as possible, using motorized troops to match the movent and combat needs of these Armored Divisions.
Beyond that, he needed to establish anti-tank capabilities for each unit, to ensure that his infantry troops had the ability to fend off enemy armored forces, preventing the enemy from breaking through the flanks of their defenses.
Having established these ground forces, Tang Mo would spare no effort to equip his land troops with a sufficiently nurous Air Force.
Only then could they ensure their troops were safe from enemy air threats while advancing and at the sa ti bombard tactical targets of the enemy, destroying their frontline tactical defensive capabilities.
This set of tactics was essentially a model based on the German blitzkrieg, which under the premise of air superiority, used tactical bombers to assist ground forces in creating breakthroughs, disrupting enemy movent, and thus large-scale encircling and annihilating the enemy forces.
With air superiority, tactical bombers could partly replace the role of artillery, making up for the inability of artillery to keep up with marching speed, striking ground targets of the enemy more tily, effectively, and accurately, paralyzing their command and mobilization.
So, whether one can have an efficient and formidable aerial division is a precondition for these tactics to be successfully implented.
Of course, compared to the German Army which had already entered the war in 1940, the Great Tang Kingdom had sufficient ti to develop a more perfect tactical system, so Tang Mo did not intend to, like the German Army around 1939, put all his eggs in one basket.
He planned to equip his forces with more self-propelled artillery and assault guns to ensure his armored forces had plenty of ground fire support.
This was an issue that the German industry, insufficient at the ti, could not address, but for the Great Tang Group, it was no issue at all.
Because the Great Tang Group had already established enough factories within the Great Tang Kingdom, at Tang Mo's command, the hardworking Tang people could quickly produce enough vehicle chassis, which could be modified into a sufficient number of self-propelled artillery.
With these self-propelled guns, the troops of the Great Tang Kingdom could beco less reliant on the power of the Air Force, making it easier for them to overco the enemy before them.
At the sa ti, the advanced nature of Great Tang Group's aircraft manufacturing production was beyond question, and this also ensured that Tang Mo would have a sizeable aerial force in the future to emulate the German model, equipping more tactical bombers to destroy ground targets of the enemy.
In this area, Tang Mo was very confident: he had a pilot training system that no other country in the world could possibly have, and he already had over a thousand skilled pilots capable of flying aircraft.
In this field, no competitor could challenge him, nor did they even have the slightest ability to struggle!
With this dual approach, his armored forces' assault tactics could be said to be unrivaled in the world, it was just that he needed a little more ti to perfect and prepare.
Watching tank after tank tightly wrapped and unloaded onto the dock, military music suddenly rang out robustly from another part of the dock.
It must be said, with Tang Mo as the ultimate ace up its sleeve, Great Tang's achievents in the arts had already reached a subli level.
Just playing a piece of music was enough to be heart-stirring, to ignite the blood and quicken the pulse; even the dockworkers felt invigorated, hastening their work just by listening to it. Read the latest on My Virtual Library Empire
