In Mr. Jiang's office, Zhou Yang frowned and felt extremely entangled in his heart.
He could see how tense the situation in southern Xinjiang was at this time, and a war seemed imminent.
At the same time, it can also be felt that senior officials, including Mr. Jiang, attach great importance to the Southern Monkey Air Force and are even afraid of it.
After all, the monkey now is no longer the monkey before!
If the monkeys in the past are real monkeys, then the monkeys who have experienced the US-Vietnam War are already the Monkey Kings who have returned from studying and visited the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. With all the equipment, they will almost become the Monkey King. The Monkey King.
Right now, in their opinion, what they are missing is the highlight moment of crushing Ling Xiao.
But Zhou Yang really wanted to say something to Mr. Jiang: "Your worries are unnecessary. There is no air force involved in this war. The air forces of both sides are just decorations!"
That's right, the air forces of both sides have indeed played no role in the upcoming defense war in southern Xinjiang.
Our aircraft did not launch a full-scale bombing of the other side's facilities, and the other side's fighter planes did not take the initiative to take off for combat. It can be said that the air forces of both sides did not participate in the war.
After the war, some people even thought that this was some kind of "gentleman's agreement" that we had reached with a certain big country in the north. The two sides could go to war, but they couldn't use their air force.
In fact, this is not the case, they have already started to take action, and there is still a gentleman's agreement.
Besides, we and our neighbors in the north don't like each other at the moment, and we want to kill each other. Who would have the time to make a gentleman's agreement?
The reason why there was no air force in the battle to defend southern Xinjiang was entirely because both sides had their own concerns and thus reached a tacit understanding.
First of all, this must start from the strength of the air forces of both sides. Only when they are evenly matched or each has its own advantages and disadvantages can they fear each other.
Let’s first talk about the comparison of the air forces of the two parties. At this time, the Nanhou Air Force has more than 300 Soviet fighters, including J-5, J-6, MiG-15, MiG-17, MiG-21 and so on.
In addition, they also captured more than 70 American F5 fighter jets and more than 100 A37 attack aircraft on the battlefield.
In terms of helicopters, they included 46 Mi-8 and 10 Mi-6 helicopters, and more than 430 American UH1 helicopters were seized on the battlefield.
The total number of these fighters is more than 2,000, and the air force has more than 63,000 people, which is known as the sixth in the world.
Although being ranked sixth in the world is indeed a bit bragging, it is undeniable that Nanhou's air force cannot be underestimated at this time. The opponent still has some wealth, at least it is much stronger than us.
Under such circumstances, the reason why Nanhou did not use the air force was mainly due to practical considerations.
First of all, successive years of war have resulted in an extremely weak domestic industrial base in Nanhou. Coupled with the talent training system that is as "excessive" as the domestic industry, this has resulted in a severe shortage of senior military talents in Nanhou.
Especially in the Air Force, there is a shortage of qualified pilots.
As we all know, without qualified pilots, no matter how powerful a fighter plane is, it is just a pile of scrap metal.
Furthermore, although they have some advanced aircraft from the United States and the Soviet Union, because they do not have the ability to manufacture advanced fighter aircraft, and because they cannot repair and maintain them, they have suffered very heavy losses in the past few years.
More importantly, once the Air Force joins the war, there will inevitably be one less fighter plane to fight.
Therefore, after the war started, they hesitated again and again and finally did not let the air force participate in the war.
Besides, the reason why we don't use the air force here is mainly because our air force is too weak and cannot be used to fight.
After all, the only two old fighters we can get are the J-5 and J-6. Their performance is only equivalent to the MiG-17 and MiG-19 in the opponent's hands, but at this time, the monkey has a large number of MiG-21, Even the MiG-23.
What's even more terrible is that our J-5 and J-6 are still first-generation jet aircraft and require line-of-sight assistance during combat, while many of Nanhou's fighters are already second-generation aircraft.
The gap between this first-generation aircraft and the second-generation aircraft is very large. The second-generation aircraft already has the ability to strike beyond visual range because it is equipped with radar.
In other words, when we search for the enemy with our eyes, the enemy has discovered us on the radar and can launch an attack without us seeing the opponent.
Therefore, during the Southern Xinjiang Defense War, although both countries had seemingly "powerful" air forces, both sides tacitly agreed to set the mission of their air forces as "air defense" rather than "attack".
It is too difficult for the air forces of both countries to rely on the air force to seize air supremacy and then conduct ground attacks.
Once a fight breaks out, there is a high probability that "the effect is not good, but the losses are huge", and the gains are completely outweighed by the losses.
Therefore, although a small number of Chinese aircraft appeared on the battlefield at that time, they were basically used for transportation and reconnaissance rather than directly participating in combat.
Because he knew this, Zhou Yang was not worried about how much damage the opponent's air force could cause to the troops on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang.
He also wanted to tell Mr. Jiang this so that he would not have to worry, the sky would not fall.
But his reason told him that he couldn't do this.
Without pressure, there is no motivation. Once this is done, it will be harmful to the future development of the Air Force.
It's better to take advantage of the fact that the top military officials are so afraid of the other party's air force and vigorously develop our aviation industry. This is a rare opportunity!
After thinking about it again and again, Zhou Yang decided not to say anything.
After all, our enemies are not just monkeys, but also thieving eagles, furry bears, white elephants, sticks, and chickens that are not worthy of being on the table. It can be said that there are not many people in the entire Blue Star Zoo who are sincerely friends with us.
We should just take advantage of this war to promote the development of the domestic aviation industry. At the very least, we must develop the early warning aircraft, helicopters and new fighters that their research institute is developing.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang immediately knew what to do.
"Mr. Jiang, once we start a war with Nanhou, what are our chances of winning?"
"The odds of winning are still very high, but we all agree that this battle is difficult to win, especially the Air Force!"
Speaking of this, Mr. Jiang couldn't help but sigh.
He really didn't expect that he and the little brother to the south would actually get into a fight, let alone that the other side's strength would make us feel uneasy.
"Mr. Jiang, are we not even strong enough to deal with a monkey?" Zhou Yang frowned.
"The monkeys are not weak now. Compared with our opponents, we do not have an advantage!"
"How is it possible? We have millions of troops and they have only a small number of troops. How can they not have an advantage?" Zhou Yang said deliberately.
Mr. Jiang said in a deep voice: "We do have 4.5 million troops, but 60% of them are deployed in the north to guard against the bears. Although there are only 1.2 million troops on the southern side of the monkey, most of them can be deployed in a very short time. Mobilized to the China-Vietnam border within a short period of time, we do not have an advantage in local strength."
"What about the quality of individual soldiers and weapons and equipment? Are we not as good as monkeys?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"You are really right. Nanhou has just completed the reunification of the country. After more than 20 years of fighting with Gallic Chicken, Thieving Eagle and other countries, the combat effectiveness of the troops there has increased rapidly. On the contrary, our army has already There has been no war for decades, and it is still unknown how many percent of the combat effectiveness our troops can maintain.”
Then Mr. Jiang continued: "As for weapons and equipment, during the process of unifying the South, the monkeys captured a large number of American advanced weapons. This is similar to the situation during our Liberation War, except that the "Transportation Brigade Captain" became It’s just the South Vietnamese regime.”
"Now they have strong troops and horses and are ready to try, but we are in a state of decline for a long time, and the veterans have retired and the veterans have withered away. We really don't have the advantage here!"
"So this battle is really difficult to fight?" Zhou Yang asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, otherwise we wouldn't be so eager to put your airborne radar into production as soon as possible. As long as you can produce the airborne radar as soon as possible, we can put the J-8 fighter into the army as soon as possible. By then, we may be able to reverse the air force's disadvantages. situation!" Mr. Jiang said in a deep voice.
Seeing that the preparation was almost done, Zhou Yang immediately said loudly: "I understand what you always said. I also express my position to you on behalf of all the staff and cadres of our 888 factory. We will definitely do our best to speed up production and move the guns Target radars and airborne radars are produced to ensure the supply to the front line, but..."
"Nothing. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Don't give the old man a slap in the face by me!" Mr. Jiang said loudly.
Zhou Yang didn't pretend to be pretentious and said directly: "But you know the situation of our 888 factory. The stall has grown so big all of a sudden, and now we are short of both people and money..."
Before Zhou Yang could finish speaking, Mr. Jiang interrupted him directly and said, "I can help you think of a way. In such a big country, we can always transfer some people to you, but we really don't have the money!"
"Besides, didn't I say before that your research institute is a pilot unit for military-to-civilian conversion, and aren't you a very capable boy? If you are short of money, you can find a way to do it yourself!"
Zhou Yang grinned and said: "I have a way, I just want to tell you!"
"Say what?"
“We want policy support!”
"What's the policy? Don't you go too far?" Jiang Lao said.
"It's nothing, I just hope that the things produced by our unit can be freely sold to other regions without going through the approval of relevant departments!"
We are currently in the era of planned economy, where agricultural products are purchased and sold under a unified system, and industrial products are produced on demand and purchased with tickets.
If each factory wants to sell its products, it must first obtain approval from the relevant economic department, which is very troublesome.
It will be different if there is policy support, which can save a lot of unnecessary processes and troubles.
"Your kid has a big appetite!" Mr. Jiang frowned.
"No, it's just that you can't let me make money and be a good boy at the same time. That's unreasonable!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
Mr. Jiang was silent for a moment, and then said: "Okay, I will accept this matter. You can do whatever you want, but you still have to abide by the principles and bottom lines!"
"yes!"
"Go back, I hope you will have good news next time you call me!"
"You can rest assured, I guarantee you will always be satisfied!"
"hope so..."
