It wasn't until he really participated in the front line that Gray Qingyan clearly understood why Deputy Commander Shijishui was so happy about the appearance of "Mighty Pill".
Although the Volunteer Army has fought from the Yalu River to the 30th parallel of north latitude, and even captured Seoul, the capital of the Southern Universe Netherworld, it is now at the end of its strength. “......
We have no problem with our fighting skills and morale, and we can beat their so-called United Nations forces to the top.
But our current logistical supplies and weapons and equipment are too poor.
"The whole sky and the day were all theirs, and even if only one wagon was spotted on the ground, it would quickly attract hordes of planes.
The air force of the United States has strafed and bombed, "They hardly miss any target.
When we first crossed the river, the Volunteer Army had 1,300 vehicles.
But only a month later, 1,000 vehicles were blown up by the Mi army.
"On average, more than 30 vehicles are bombed into the sky by Mi Jun's planes every day.
The Banzai army was equipped with 100 cars when it crossed the river, and after 20 days there were only 6 left.
The air superiority of the Mi army is too great, "From the east coast of the province to the west coast, from the Han River to the Yalu River, we have been strafing and bombing day and night, and we have not missed any targets.
And the air defense of the Volunteer Army is not strong, and there is no air force support, The air force of the Mi Army is even more unscrupulous, and many pilots do not care about the risks, often reducing the flight altitude to a level extremely close to the ground to find and attack targets.
"There were even planes that crashed into trees because they flew too low, or got their wings caught in high-voltage wires.
After seeing it, many volunteers were stunned.
At the end of a campaign, "We have captured more than 60 vehicles and are preparing to replenish the battle damage.
As a result, it was discovered by a reconnaissance plane of the Mi Army, and in a short period of time, more than 30 planes were summoned to bomb indiscriminately, and more than half of them were lost in a short time.
By the end of the second campaign, more than 2,000 cars had been captured on the battlefield.
Basically, all of them are new cars that have just been shipped from the United States, and most of them have only traveled less than 200 kilometers.
As a result, before Shiji could finish his happiness, he had just mobilized the captive drivers to drive away 200 cars, and hundreds of enemy planes quickly rushed out and blew up the remaining cars.
"The Volunteer Army lacks air defense and air supremacy, so it can only hide and watch.
I can't do anything but bleed from my heart.
Not to mention the front-line combat units, even the headquarters are not safe.
"In three days, the headquarters will be bombed by the Mi army.
Not to mention the transportation of logistical materials, basically from the beginning of crossing the Yalu River, every step forward has to pay the price of blood and lives.
"Roads and railways are bombed every day, and as soon as the convoy shows up, it will be blown up.
In the end, we can only rely on the most primitive manpower to carry the materials.
Not to mention ammunition, "Even fried noodles and cotton clothes can't be supplied.
After all, there are hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line, and where can they keep up with the logistics of manpower transportation alone?
Especially on the Eastern Front, where the normal food supply can only meet half of the minimum subsistence requirements.
"Many of the fighters could only wear straw sandals and attack the enemy in the snow at minus 40 degrees Celsius hungry.
Yes, even in such a harsh situation, we are on the offensive!
"And our enemy, the United Nations Army, made up of more than a dozen armies, is retreating.
But the gap is huge, it's unimaginable.
One of our logistics soldiers supplies hundreds of soldiers, "The United Nations Army, on the other hand, has thirteen logistical soldiers to supply one soldier.
The Volunteer Army has only more than 1,300 vehicles for hundreds of thousands of people and horses, while the first army of the Mi Army has more than 7,000 cars to transport supplies.
Not to mention that there are thousands of transport ships on the sea, shuttling back and forth between North America, the four islands of Fuso and the Cosmos Peninsula.
Not to mention weapons, equipment, food and clothing, people can still transport tens of millions of condoms to supply the soldiers of the front-line Mi Army.
"The firepower of the two sides is even more incomparable, and anyone who sees such a gap will be stunned.
The first army of the Mi Army had 430 tanks, and the Volunteer Army had six armies, but there was not a single one.
"The artillery directly under the division of the 1 infantry division of the Mi Army alone has 432 large-caliber * guns and cannons, and it can also be supported by other artillery at any time.
And 1 division of the Volunteer Army is only equipped with 1 mountain artillery battalion, "Equipped with 12 mountain guns that have long been eliminated by foreign armies.
Mountain artillery?
Many units of the Mi Army have not even heard of this word.
One division of the Mi Army is equipped with 1,600 radio stations, and wireless communication reaches the class.
Before the volunteers crossed the Yalu River, they searched the whole country, so that they could barely make each army belong to dozens of radio stations, and they could barely communicate with the battalion.

The operational command further down is all on the two legs of the signal corps.
Not to mention the ace main force like the Banzai Army, the main battle light weapon is actually the 38 type rifle produced by Yamato in 1905.
It's 1951, and that's almost half a century later.
"Our fighters on the front line can only eat fried noodles when they are hungry, and fry a handful of snow from the ground to eat when they are thirsty.
The rice army is war rations, canned luncheon meat, cigarettes, matches, and chocolate.
"With such rudimentary supply conditions, it is difficult for us to get to the front.
The air superiority of the Mi army is too great, and many of our supplies were blown up by the Mi army during transportation!
"But now that these 'strong pills' are here, our logistics supply should soon be able to raise a notch.
Not to mention anything else, at least it can allow the front-line fighters to ensure clothing and food supplies.
First eat and dress warmly, and then fight with the devils of the United States. ” Shiji and his superiors spoke very highly of the "Powerful Pill", and the commander-in-chief realized the strategic value of it.
There is a direct judgment on the importance of gray light words.
"Do it well, and when we finally win this battle, I'll go to the center to ask you for credit."
For the first time, domestic commanders, who were not aware of the professionalism of battlefield logistics at all, realized for the first time the huge difference between internal and external operations in the environment of fighting abroad.
Besides, when there was a domestic war in those years, whether it was against Yamato or the Standing Committee, it was all against the enemy.
There are no guns, no cannons, the enemy made us.
As for the food supply and the production of clothing, there are also people nearby to support.
But now it is impossible to follow the old experience of fighting abroad, and a large amount of materials have been destroyed in the past few months of war on the cosmic peninsula, both north and south.
Collecting food and clothing on the spot is basically no fun.
It can only be transported by logistics.
However, the air superiority of the Mi army is too huge, neither cars nor trains can transport it, and it will be blown to pieces halfway.
Now the emergence of "Mighty Pill" is really a ray of light.
"Well, very good, taking advantage of the emergence of the 'Mighty Pill' now, let's speed up the logistics support to the front line.
I have a hunch that the new commander of the Mi Army, who replaces 'Tiger Dog' Walker, will be very difficult to entangle. ” "What do you mean by that?"
"Look at the later statistics of our three battles: we suffered 5,800 casualties, and the Northern Universe Kingdom People's Army suffered 2,700 casualties, but our enemy number was only 19,000.
"This Ridgway's troop transport skills are not simple.
Although we attacked and advanced every day, the enemy forces were constantly repulsed every day.
But the enemy army only retreated about 30 kilometers a day, which was exactly the distance we could march in one night.
"We will not be able to annihilate the enemy's living forces by attacking at night, and during the day we will be within the range of the enemy's air superiority.
The enemy was in a planned retreat, and the main forces were intact.
"In this case, we can't go any further.
Otherwise, if you miss a little, you will be viciously pounced by the enemy and take a bloody bite!
The gains outweigh the losses, the gains outweigh the losses!
” There was silence in the air before a sound sounded for a long time.
"But......
General Kim Dae-woong of the Northern Universe Kingdom hopes that we can continue the offensive and strive to drive the enemy into the sea in one go, completely resolve the war on the Universe Peninsula, and destroy the Southern Universe Underworld. ” "Huh......
Hey, it's not that simple.
The troops are too tired, and we need to rest.
The front-line troops are working too hard, we can't even guarantee logistics, so what can we do to attack?
” "Did you hear that?
The Emperor Fusang is jumping again, and the secretary of state of the White House of the United States also made a statement at the press conference: the use of nuclear weapons to settle the battle is not ruled out. ” “*？
Hum!
Do you really think we're all scared?
When we're rested, we'll see if it's their *power, or ours*. ” "Well, the head assistant university scholar of the center of the country also slapped the table angrily, and swore that we would never be subjected to the enemy's nuclear blackmail again.
Our future is also to be studied*. ” "It's too far away, let's take care of the present!
I always felt that this Li Qiwei seemed to be secretly playing with something.

Hey, you say, what the hell is he thinking?
” ......
United Nations Command.
"Did you see that?
This is our current record of fighting: the first time we encountered the Volunteers was on October 26 last year, and they stopped their offensive on November 2, and we were driven back to the south bank of the Cheongchon River.
"The battle lasted eight days.
When we attacked the Yalu River for the second time, we were attacked by the volunteers on November 25, and the volunteers stopped attacking on December 2, and the battle lasted again for eight days.
"On December 31, we were attacked by their third large-scale attack, and on January 8, we stopped the attack, and the fighting lasted eight days.
Can anyone tell me what this means?
” No one spoke at the scene, and Li Qiwei looked around the audience and slammed his fist on the table: "Because their primitive logistics supply can only sustain the army's offensive for 8 days at most, when they consume the food and ammunition they carry with them, "I had to stop!
In other words, no matter how ferocious their offensive is, it can only last for 1 week.
What is this?
Worship offensive?
As long as you resist their attack for 1 week, "We can take advantage of the fact that their ammunition and food supplies are running out and give them a hard time.
Hmph, with just one counterattack, we can puncture their illusion of being invincible!
” When the words fell, the eyes of everyone in the headquarters instantly lit up.
