There was no sound in the command center, and everyone was filled with my affirmative sadness.

Among them, especially Qin Chuan... the entire plan can be said to be designed by him. He thought that at least he could use the special terrain of Algeria to compete with the British. Although it cannot be said that it is foolproof, at least it will not end like the end of Rommel and a few senior officials who were completely wiped out by the British army in history.

But now, if we cannot compete with the British army on air supremacy, then everything will be empty.

"Marson!" said Colonel Slain: "If you and Rommel ask the Head of State for Air Force reinforcements..."

Redel smiled bitterly and replied, "That depends on General Rommel's ability!"

Redell's words were a bit self-deprecating, but what he said was the truth... Hitler had lost confidence in Redell and his navy, so his request was useless at all.

He paused and asked back, "What do you think, Colonel?"

"What?"

"Is it possible for Rommel to send additional fighter jets to the head of state?"

Colonel Slain thought about it and shook his head in pain: "In fact, General Rommel has always asked this!"

Colonel Slein said the truth. Since Hitler transferred the 24th Air Wing in Sicily to the Eastern Front, North Africa's air supremacy has always been in the hands of the British. Therefore, Rommel asked Hitler for more air power again and again, but there was no news.

Redell spread his hands and said, "As far as I know... we have to worry about Americans in addition to the British planes?"

"Yes!" said Colonel Slain: "The 10th Air Brigade of the United States has entered Port Said!"

"So!" Redel smiled: "We are here to die, just like before, we are fighting a battle that is almost impossible to win!"

I have to say that Redel's fortune is a bit bad... Britain is an island country, so the first thing to develop is the naval and air force, while Germany is the first to develop the army. The overall strength of the navy is far inferior to that of the British Navy. Of course, it is difficult for Redel to make a breakthrough in naval battles.

"It's time to end the meeting, gentlemen!" Seeing everyone bowing their heads and saying nothing, Radell mocked: "Now, we can only hope that the 'Legend Sergeant' can teach us how to fight this battle, right?"

Redel's naval staff cooperated and laughed, while Major General Oxter and Colonel Slein were full of embarrassment.

"Marson Marshal!" Qin Chuan said: "I have an idea..."

"Oh, is that?" said Redell. "The 'Legend Sergeant' was well-known and he thought of a solution so soon!"

A staff officer replied, "The Legendary Sergeant doesn't want to swim into the sea to help us defend the air!"

The staff officer's words naturally attracted another laugh.

Qin Chuan ignored their ridicule and said, "Why don't we modify the anti-aircraft guns of warships to make them have better air defense capabilities!"

"Lieutenant!" Redel shook his head disdainfully, "That's a warship, with a number of more than 70. Do you think you can easily replace those anti-aircraft guns, even 130MM sub-cannons?"

"No, sir!" Qin Chuan replied: "What I meant was not to replace those anti-aircraft guns!"

"What are you talking about?" Raidel asked: "Besides that, what else can improve their air defense capabilities?"

"Candy shells, sir!" Qin Chuan said.

"Candy shell?" Redel looked at Qin Chuan in confusion, as if he was looking at a madman.

Colonel Slein and others also had the same expression, because everyone knew that the shells were determined by the caliber of the cannon. If the cannon was not replaced, that is, the problem of firing rate and elevation angle was not solved, then it would be useless to just make a fuss about the shells.

At this moment, Raidel was too lazy to respond and made a gesture to send guests off.

"Marson!" said Colonel Slain, "Maybe we should hear what the lieutenant said, because if there is a little chance... it will be our way of living, right?"

Redell leaned on the chair with impatient expression and said, "Well, Lieutenant, given that you have seized a whole fleet, I believe you are not a fool!"

"We use two types of shells now!" Qin Chuan said: "One is a bomb fume, and the other is a delayed fume!"

This is what Qin Chuan heard about during his combat. After all, anti-aircraft guns are commonly used in the army. Qin Chuan easily learned that anti-aircraft guns with a caliber of 57MM use bombs with bombardment fuses... This small-caliber anti-aircraft gun mainly relies on their high-fire rate. As mentioned earlier, Bofos anti-aircraft guns can fire 80 shells in actual combat in actual combat. These shells will shoot a dense barrage, destroying air targets like artillery fire.

There is one disadvantage of this kind of shell, that is, it will not explode without hitting the target, so the hit and destruction rate is extremely low.

For anti-aircraft guns with a caliber of 57MM, such as the German 88MM anti-aircraft gun, they generally use delayed fuzes. The gunner will calculate how long it takes for the shell to encounter the aircraft group based on the height, speed, speed of the enemy aircraft group, and oblique distance, etc., and then set the explosion time for the shell fuze and fire it out...

The advantage of this shell is that it will explode regardless of whether it hits the target or not, and the exploded shrapnel may destroy or injure nearby targets.

The disadvantage is that the launch process is too cumbersome. Even if the time can be accurately calculated, the artillery must manually adjust the fuze time with a wrench. After all these are completed, the enemy fleet may have already flown out of the original airspace.

"Oh, that's great!" said Raidel. "You taught us the kinds of shells!"

The naval staff laughed again.

Qin Chuan can understand their psychology. The navy has never been as good as the army. Now, he will certainly take the opportunity to avenge a "revenge of one arrow".

"I mean..." Qin Chuan said: "We can produce a shell that is completely different from these two modes, but it will be much better than these two shells!"

"Are you going to invent a new type of shell?" Redell was stunned when he heard this: "This seems to be what scientists do!"

"Marson!" Colonel Slain interrupted: "The lieutenant has already made several amazing inventions, such as minesweeping tanks, and 'Iron Fist' and 'Battlehot'!"

Redell couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this: "What are you talking about is the 'bazooka' that can penetrate the enemy tanks 160 meters away?"

Although Redell knew the situation in Africa, he had not yet detailed enough that he had invented the "Battlehot".

"Yes, Lord Marshal!" said Colonel Slain: "Col. Conrad of the R&D department has a high evaluation of the lieutenant's ability to innovate!"
