Inside The Black Mist Chapter 1162: Undercurrent Tactics
This time, in order to secretly infiltrate into the consular area of Qingtianbao, Jingtaobao did not dispatch chariots at all. The vehicles used were all modified vehicles used to forge identities. .
Then the commander of the detachment immediately gave up the risk of going to war, but he issued orders for the soldiers to prepare for the surprise attack. The commander's idea is to continue to approach the storm army as a caravan and launch an assault at the right time.
If the distance is shortened, the opponent's chariot will naturally not fire in order to avoid accidentally injuring friendly troops, which will give them a chance to win.
However, about a few hundred meters away from the Storm Army, there was an announcement over there: "Please stop the convoy in front, please stop the convoy in front."
"Please show your valid ID. If it is a caravan, please show the record code of the fortress for inquiries."
The broadcast kept repeating. In order not to cause 'misunderstanding', the commander of Fort Stormwind could only give the order to stop. As an enemy army, where would they have any valid certificates, and naturally it is impossible to have a record code.
The commander took a deep breath and ordered decisively: "After the people in vehicles No. 1 to No. 3 stay with me, the rest of the vehicles will immediately retreat and join the No. 4 detachment."
In this case, the people in the car knew what it meant to be cut off. The expression on the face of the soldier who was named to be in charge of the cut off changed drastically.
Fort Stormwind has not fought for many years. Although they participated in the last battle between Fort Skyrocket and Fort Black Star, they were not the main force, so not many soldiers were sent to the battlefield.
Many soldiers have never participated in real wars at all, and now that they are staying, many people are afraid.
The commander said in a deep voice: "I know you are afraid, but this is for the fortress, for your family members in the fortress. Moreover, I will stay with you and die. If we die, we will die in the front .”
"Now, pick up your weapons and don't embarrass us at Stormwind."
With the encouragement of the commander, these soldiers picked up the weapons hidden in the cargo one after another, but their faces were still pale, and the hands holding the rifles were trembling slightly.
The other side.
The broadcast of the Storm Army was still ringing, but the convoy parked in front did not produce a valid certificate. After receiving this report, the colonel in charge of this unit, Lan Long, ordered calmly.
"The chariots spread out to form an encirclement circle, ordering them to respond within 1 minute, otherwise we will bombard."
Before the Stormtroopers could carry out the colonel's order, the convoy in front suddenly broke away from the rear of the convoy, turned around and ran wildly. Seeing this situation, there was no need for the blue dragon to order, and the storm chariot immediately adjusted the muzzle of the main gun, and fired shells at the convoy behind.
Star element shells broke through the air and fell to the ground, exploding blue fireballs, causing the earth to vibrate and Fausts flying everywhere.
At the same time, the three broken vehicles in front of the convoy lined up. The soldiers inside smashed the window under the command of the commander, stretched out their rifles, and opened fire on the Stormtroopers.
All of a sudden, gunshots and cannons rang out on this coastline road, the flames rose, and gunpowder smoke rose everywhere.
Sky Fort.
Chu Yan, who had a rare trip home yesterday, just had lunch at home today when he received news of the battle on the coastline highway, and hurried back to the command hall of the military headquarters.
The old commander in the black long coat of the Nightcrawler strode into the command center, and saw the figure of the blue dragon appearing on the big screen in front of him.
Xu Yan immediately asked: "What's the situation?"
Colonel Blue Dragon paid a military salute to the acting castellan and said: "We have just intercepted a Stormwind Fort troop on the Coastline Highway. Meeting point."
"It's a pity that their commanders and officers are all killed in battle, and the prisoners are all soldiers. They have very limited information."
Chu Yan snorted and said: "Storm Tower is determined to start a war. Yesterday I asked the heads of various outposts on the border to report to me, and several outposts lost contact. Our people rushed to investigate , the result is the same, the people in those outposts have been completely wiped out."
"It now appears that the troops of Fort Stormwind have infiltrated into our consular area. Blue Dragon, you and the other Storm Army formations will start a search immediately, and you must find all the troops that have sneaked into the consular area in Fort Storm !”
After this order was issued, the Stormtroopers began to carry out large-scale operations. In the afternoon, many movement arrows appeared in a map of the Gulf region on the big screen of the command center.
Among them, the red arrows represent the invaders, and the blue arrows represent the Stormtroopers.
Judging from the markings on this map, there are a lot of red arrows, their movement rules are elusive, and the distribution points are very wide, which makes people feel that there is no way to know where to start.
From a distance, those red arrows are like the undercurrent in the sea. Su Yan bit a cigarette, but did not light it. The old commander raised his eyebrows and said: "This is the most commonly used tactic in Stormwind Fort. They always divide the army into multiple formations, and they surge irregularly like undercurrents in the sea during combat, making it difficult for the enemy to guess their tactical purpose, so that they have been led by their noses."
"When they master the initiative and the rhythm of the battle, at a certain moment, many undercurrents will converge to form a tsunami that can destroy everything!"
Cao Gang, the iron wall commander who has already rushed to the command center, glanced at the old commander: "Then how should we deal with it?"
At this moment, Chu Yan lit his cigarette, exhaled the smoke and said: "If we want to intercept those undercurrents, we must divide our forces like them, otherwise we cannot do it. But in this way, we will fall into a passive situation , so this approach is not advisable.”
"Although the undercurrent tactics of Fort Storm are flexible, they are not without shortcomings. In order for these undercurrents to appear quickly and covertly in the enemy's battle zone, they must abandon some things."
"Supply, for example, tanks. Also, in order to remain mobile, they required constant tactical movement, so their soldiers fatigued quickly and were difficult to sustain."
"So, if I am the enemy's commander, after confusing the opponent, I must occupy some places as a stronghold in the theater. Only in this way can I build a supply line, open up a transportation network, and create conditions for continuous operations .”
Cao Gang narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "In this way, we can formulate a countermeasure plan according to the opponent's strategy."
Xu Yan nodded: "Yes, first of all, we can maintain the current pursuit posture, create the illusion that the enemy is pressing, and continue to exert pressure on them. But at the same time, we can use the Some of the soldiers were secretly withdrawn to be used as troops needed for the next battle.”
"During the pursuit, we will remove the settlements in the battle zone, and at the same time let people take away the food, and if they can't take it away, we will burn it down, leaving no chance for Stormwind Castle to replenish supplies. "
"At the same time, we sent troops to bypass the war zone, establish a defense line in the border area, cut off the other party's supplies, and make those troops that penetrated into our area become lone troops."
"Under such circumstances, their commanders have only one choice, and that is to occupy the places in our consular district that can quickly replenish supplies."
Chu Yan pointed at the map on the big screen: "In that war zone, there is only one place that can meet the conditions at present. That is where we set up to supply the materials needed for the daily life of the border post. Base."
"Then, the soldiers we secretly transferred back before can be concentrated in that base, and when the enemy comes to the door, we can give them a surprise."
Cao Gang nodded and said, "Then I will go to the material transfer base to stand by now."
"No no no."
Chu Yan shook his head and said, "I have more important matters to be handled by you."
Cao Gang gave the old commander a puzzled look. What else is more urgent than this?
Three days passed quietly.
Since the battle that took place on the Coastline Highway three days ago, the flames of war have spread in the territory of Qingtianbao. In three days, an area of more than 200 square kilometers has become a war zone. More than two dozen settlements were destroyed, and thousands of people were displaced and made homeless.
The battle is still going on, and there is a tendency to intensify.
You can hear the sound of gunfire and cannons in this vast battle zone almost every day, and the flames and thick smoke can be seen everywhere. Even at night, the fighting has not stopped.
Outside a settlement that has been reduced to a battlefield, a force from Fort Storma quietly arrives, ready to support the friendly forces here. The commander led the soldiers and sneaked under various covers. Behind the settlement, a fierce battle had just ended, and the ground was blasted with large and small holes.
Two light chariots were on fire. Not far from the chariots, a dozen soldiers sat on the ground with numb expressions. They were unkempt and resting.
Some of them were eating high-energy food bars, and some were bandaging their comrades. Some of these wounded had their hands and feet blown off, some had their heads broken, some were deaf, and some were blinded by shrapnel.
The commander brought the team to them, joined them, and asked his soldiers to take out first-aid medicine in the field to rescue several seriously injured soldiers.
"I don't want to call..."
Suddenly, a soldier stood up: "I want to go home! I don't want to stay here anymore."
The commander changed color and said: "Get down!"
At the end of the sentence, the soldier who stood up suddenly lost his head, and then the sound of a sniper rifle came from a distance.
"Damn it, there are still snipers!" The commander shouted, "Sit down and don't get up."
He turned his head and pointed at several officers: "You, and you, take someone to find the sniper."
Then, the commander said to the other soldiers: "Now we are on the battlefield, and on the battlefield, you are soldiers. If you want to go home, hit me hard and try to survive. After the fight is over In this battle, you will be heroes when you return home."
"But now, if you go back, you will be deserters!"
"To be a hero or to be a deserter, you choose!"
