What Zhu Cixiang can like is the A400M tactical transport aircraft, MH-101 "Merlin" heavy-duty helicopter, "Sky Sword" air defense system, "Ajax" infantry fighting vehicle, and "Storm" tracked helicopter in the gift package. Air defense and anti-tank vehicles, MAN heavy trucks.
Then there is basically nothing else. The British gift package seems to be more luxurious, but in fact it is equivalent to the combined gift packages of Brazil and Australia.
The most important thing is that there is no need for an AWACS aircraft, not even a small AWACS aircraft like the EMB-145SA.
At this stage, the Ming Dynasty Air Force can only rely on its self-developed early warning aircraft to patrol the air with the EMB-145SA.
After Cromwell V was killed, Louis XIV was happiest.
Although the war in French India was very unfavorable to it, the hope of regaining French West Africa was considered great news at this time.
Singh, who claims to be the new emperor of the Maurya Empire, has controlled more than half of India's territory after six months of conquests in the north and south.
Because Singer not only wanted to recover French India, but also wanted to seize Dutch India.
The Indian Desert to the west of the Himalayas is still controlled by France, but the French army has paid a very high price for this land.
First of all, the Indian Ocean Fleet stationed in French India has ceased to exist in name only. There are less than five surviving ships, and they have all taken refuge in the Persian Gulf.
The French Air Force lost thousands of fixed-wing fighters and helicopters in India. It can be said that its vitality was severely damaged. The battlefield air supremacy has been seized by the Mauryan Empire Air Force.
The French army originally stationed in India suffered heavy losses. After reinforcements arrived on the battlefield, at least fifteen brigades of French troops were wiped out by the Mauryan Empire.
Singh's air force has Su-30MKI heavy fighter jets, "Tejas" light fighter jets, "Jaguar" attack aircraft, and MiG-27 attack aircraft.
The Su-30MKI, in particular, is almost invincible on the battlefield. The small amount of "Wang Jiu" fighter jets imported from the Ming Empire invested by the French Air Force are no match for it.
It didn't go through a single round and couldn't maintain the distance of a dog fight. It was shot down by the opponent with a medium-range air-to-air missile at a distance of thirty or forty kilometers.
Not to mention the fighter jets developed by France. Not to mention the Su-30MKI, even the light "Tejas" fighter jet can easily shoot it down.
The air battle ended without any suspense. Every time the French fighter planes kept falling before they appeared on the battlefield...
What was achieved during the Warring States Period was also due to the air defense missile force. These air defense systems were also imported from the Ming Empire.
Since France's national power was far inferior to that of the Ming Empire, Louis XIV could not afford just a war of attrition against the rebels in French India.
On the one hand, he asked the local arsenal to seize the time to produce various weapons and equipment. On the other hand, he asked his old friends for help and gave him anything. This time he would not be picky about food.
Zhu Cixiang promised Louis XIV free assistance of 100 "King Vulture" fighter jets, 300 "Skiss-tailed Kite" attack aircraft, 50 sets of medium-range air defense systems, and 10 sets of long-range air defense systems.
The only thing left is for him to go to others to find a solution. Zhu Cixiang is temporarily unable to deploy naval battleships because they involve an expedition to East Africa...
No matter how good the relationship between the two countries was, Zhu Cihong would not be able to save French India first and then his own East Africa. Otherwise, who would bear the losses?
To Zhu Cixiang, Louis XIV was no different from a poor man.
In front of others, he is considered second in the world, but in front of himself, he is just a beggar!
If you have any backbone, go to other people's homes and beg for food.
Don't be picky here, otherwise you won't even get anything to eat!
Regarding how to eliminate the rebels once and for all, Zhu Cihong also told Louis XIV his trump card.
But when it came to the issue of nuclear pollution, Louis XIV could only think about it for a long time.
He would not agree to do this unless absolutely necessary. After all, French India is France's most important overseas tax collection place.
In addition to some weapons assistance from the Ming Empire, Louis XIV also obtained a large number of weapons and equipment from Prussia, South Korea, the Netherlands and other countries with his three-point thin face.
Although there are various types, most of them are in line with the Ming Empire's standard equipment, with some minor modifications suitable for their own country. It is not difficult for the French army to become familiar with it.
The equipment standards of the three armies of the Ming Empire were actually the equipment standards of major countries around the world, especially the Incas, Ottomans, South Korea, and Venice, which were heavily dependent on the Ming Empire for their equipment.
Its main weapons are purely imported and belong to the original Ming Empire standard equipment.
On the one hand, it can ensure the advancement of weapons, and on the other hand, it can maintain a good relationship with the Ming Empire.
For the big countries, this was a mutually beneficial move because no cash was required, just oil or ore could be bartered.
For a small country, this is considered a tribute. Only when the Ming Empire accepts it can it be completely assured that it will not be destroyed by its neighboring countries.
Louis XIV wanted to eliminate the rebels as soon as possible and regain the lost territory.
However, when the first batch of French troops from the mainland arrived in India, they found that Jaipur, thousands of kilometers north of Mumbai, had been lost.
With the collapse of the French army across the board, the ground forces of the Maurya Empire, covered by air force fighter planes, were advancing rapidly towards Delhi, and their momentum was almost unstoppable.
The French army of one armored brigade, two infantry brigades, four infantry brigades, and one cavalry brigade combined with the 5,000 defenders of Delhi.
Under the command of the new Commander-in-Chief of French India, Villetoux, he tried to use Delhi as a stronghold to implement defensive counterattack tactics.
As long as the rebels can be severely damaged in the Delhi area, they can launch a large-scale counterattack and even recapture Bombay.
Actual combat proves that Wielertu thought too much...
In order to seize Delhi, the most important city in northern India, Singh sent 300 T-90S main battle tanks, more than 100 "Arjun" MK2 main battle tanks, more than 500 various types of howitzers and rocket launchers, and More than 10,000 soldiers.
This is not important yet, because the performance of the Maurya Empire's fighter planes is excellent, and there has not been much loss since its launch. This time, nearly 600 fighters of various types participated in the battle, thus gaining a huge advantage in air-to-ground combat.
Although the French army defending Delhi had long-range, medium-range, and short-range air defense systems, as well as many anti-aircraft guns, they shot down hundreds of enemy planes during the bloody battle.
However, in the face of incoming fighter planes and swarming air-to-ground missiles, anti-aircraft missiles and numerous anti-aircraft guns failed to withstand the opponent's onslaught.
After a quick battle of attrition, they were finally defeated.
This is foreseeable, because if the French army and the rebels are roughly equal in strength and have similar amounts of technical equipment, this means that the rebels have an absolute qualitative advantage.
The "Badger" long-range air defense system and the "Ao" medium-range air defense system developed by the Ming Empire are completely unable to protect against the supersonic "BrahMos" cruise missile.
Who could have guessed that the Lord God sent the PsMAX version of Third Brother to Louis XIV? ? ?
Anti-aircraft guns can be hit by luck, but this kind of blind cat-killing method cannot reverse the decline in air defense.
Fortunately, one Su-30MKI is only equipped with one "BrahMos" cruise missile, and other types of fighter jets and attack aircraft are not equipped. Otherwise, the French army on the defensive end would not be able to withstand it for even ten days.
However, the Mauryan Empire's army also has 155mm howitzers, "Garuda" 105mm truck-mounted self-propelled howitzers, and "Pinaka" 214mm rocket launchers.
These are all long-range projectile weapons. The accuracy of artillery strikes is not as good as missiles, but they are more powerful and difficult to intercept. The French army was really beaten in vain.
The French artillery positions were almost the focus of the opponent's air force fighters, and more than half of them were taken away three days before the war began.
Those who survived were unable to engage in exchanges with the large rebel artillery force, and were soon beaten speechless.
Under the heavy firepower of the rebels, the ancient city of Delhi has been turned into a quasi-ruin.
Whether it will become a qualified ruin depends on the surrender speed of the French army in the city...
It was seen that there was no hope of holding on, and the number of rebels outside the city did not reach the scale of siege.
Villetoux decided to lead his troops to break out immediately to the north. It would be better to abandon the city than surrender to the rebels.
Go to Changadir first, gather the remaining troops, stabilize the position, and then think of countermeasures.
As a result, before the New Year, even Changardir was lost, and Louis XIV was furious when he heard the news.
Where can your troops defend it?
If this continues, not to mention defeating the rebels and regaining the lost territory, even the entire French India will be lost.
Louis XIV was not angry, because if Singer had not asked the army to cooperate with the navy to seize the coastal areas of French India, and now marched north with all his strength, the entire northern region of India would have fallen into his hands.
Initially, Singh also chose to hold back and only attack the coastal areas hundreds of kilometers north and south of Mumbai.
After having three aircraft carrier battle groups, Singer believes that the strength of his navy has reached expectations.
He ordered a large-scale march south to cooperate with the army and seize the entire coastline of the southern French Indian region.
This move can not only expand its own territory, but also attack France's maritime transportation lines and seize a large amount of loot.
As for the Ming Empire's Ceylon Island and the fleet stationed there, Singer did not underestimate the enemy and ordered the navy and air force not to actively attack each other.
When its own strength reaches the level of overlord in South Asia, it will naturally be possible to completely eliminate this obstructive fleet.
By New Year's Day, the rebels had taken control of French India south of the Indian Desert.
The French army had been severely wounded by the rebels in the battle to defend French India.
It's not that France can't fight anymore, but according to the estimation of France's top leaders, it wants to defeat the rebels and regain the entire territory of French India.
It will also provide the military with 5,000 main battle tanks, 10,000 artillery pieces, 20,000 combat aircraft, 100 sets of long-range air defense systems, and 200 sets of medium-range air defense systems.
It is impossible to produce so many weapons at this stage, and the arsenal will have to operate at full capacity for at least two years to achieve this.
However, the strength of the rebels will further increase by then, which means that our own strength lags behind that of the rebels.
Unless the Ming Empire can intervene...
In this case, Louis XIV could only turn to his old friend Zhu Cihong for help.
No matter what his old friend did, including nuclear pollution, Louis XIV could accept it and would not complain to him afterwards.
If this is not done, I am afraid that French India will never be an overseas possession of France from now on.
In this case, there will be no problem on Zhu Cixiang's side.
In order to shorten the running time for the opponent to discover the incoming missile, Zhu Cixiang has ordered the missile to be deployed in Zhongzhou, close to French India.
The missile flight time from Mumbai is only a few minutes. As long as the satellite detects a bunch of warships in a certain port in India, missiles equipped with nuclear warheads can immediately level it.
In the end, unfortunately, Mumbai had an additional aircraft carrier battle group.
Then there was no other way. Louis XIV could only abandon the city after the nuclear defeat.
Zhu Cixiang would not take the initiative to announce anything like a nuclear attack.
Previously, the media only reported that a large-scale volcanic eruption occurred in Switzerland, because the local area itself is an active volcanic area.
Later, the reason for attacking the Japanese country was the same. Anyway, the country would have earthquakes every three days, and the outside world had long been accustomed to it.
As for the nuclear strikes in East and West Africa, Daming Media believes that this is caused by the global plate entering an active period...
With the foreshadowing, it will be much easier for the audience to accept this reason, and it has nothing to do with them.
Various media deliberately avoid the important and trivial, and guide everyone to eat well, drink well, and play well, which means they have completed their tasks.
The various rebels that have appeared around the world are quite bizarre, but what if there were no rebels that year?
The strength of the Ming Empire is growing day by day, and its military power is getting stronger. Within a hundred years, there are still more rebels than leeks.
Once a crop is cut, another crop will grow.
It’s like a wildfire that can’t be burned out, but spring breeze blows again!
Rebels appeared again one day and somewhere, and the people of Ming Dynasty had long been accustomed to this kind of thing.
Take a minute to skim through it and you can skip it.
During the great relocation, the rebels in various places were so powerful that they were shot to death by the army within three months.
Especially except for a group of insiders, that is, people related to the court and the army who rose up.
In the end, he took the lead in accepting the imperial court's offer and became the biggest beneficiary.
Those colleagues who had no connections were deceived by these rebels, and they cursed each other, but to no avail.
Since then, rebels in the new Ming Dynasty have become relatively rare.
Because before taking action, we must prevent fire, theft, and colleagues from betraying...
The destructive power of moles is much greater than that of the official army. If they are short of money, they might as well get together and set up a debt collection company.
It's still a reliable business to do this, at least it's a legal business, and you don't have to worry about being wiped out by the army.
The foreign tribes in the Ming Dynasty rebelled against the imperial court, and the people of this tribe regarded it as gossip.
Anyway, the rebellion of our own race can only last three months to half a year. You can place your bets on how long the foreign race can last.
As it turns out, they didn't fare much better.
Under the attack of the officers and soldiers, he had to escape to death and was not tenacious at all.
The Polish rebels who ran to Incheon, South Korea, were still beaten to death by the court.
Therefore, it is more reliable to join the army.
What if the prize is a Ocean horse? I can ride it myself!
Looking at the big gift package from Third Brother, a certain emperor was filled with emotion.
The stuff here isn't too bad, but it's obviously not compatible with my Western equipment.
Even the "Rafale" fighter jets on the aircraft carrier are of a unique legal system.
The only one that can use Kimchi gift package parts is the K9-155mm self-propelled howitzer.
The most outstanding weapons are undoubtedly the Su-30MKI heavy fighter, the "Rafale" medium fighter, the "Vikrant" aircraft carrier, and the "BrahMos" supersonic cruise missile.
