"Who are you and which army are you from?"
"Gorki Dimitrau, sergeant, from the 3rd company of the 2nd regiment of the 3rd brigade."
"This should not be Where are the 9th Company and the rest of you from the 3rd Company?"
"This is where the people from the 9th Company and our 3rd Company died."
"I'm sorry, we. It’s late, but we will avenge you.”
“If you can, please take me with you.”
Facing the request of the comrade in front of him, Roald said. Major Leo felt a little embarrassed.
He is the battalion commander of the 5th Combined Battalion of the 47th Brigade, and the troops he leads are performing encirclement missions.
Compared with the troops that participated in the war before, the information he has now is relatively complete.
Focus on the breakthrough from the south, bypassing the 47th Brigade's defense line, and attacking the mechanical legion of the alliance army that was advancing along the West Desert Avenue. The total number may be around 15,000.
They have all kinds of equipment, abundant armor, and a large number of mechanical self-propelled artillery accompanying the attack.
Their attack caused considerable losses to the Union troops advancing along the avenue.
But the alliance's army also reacted quickly. Not only did they launch a counterattack, they also planned to deploy troops and generals to fight an encirclement war.
If you dare to attack, then no one can escape.
The troops of the Xifeng Brigade and the Beast-Slaying Brigade implemented the first wave of strategies. Heavy artillery and armored units were engaged in front-line battles. The 2nd Infantry Regiment of the Beast Slaughter Brigade split into many companies and moved to the south of the mechanical army, intending to completely encircle them.
However, things quickly went wrong.
Each company of the 2nd Regiment should establish many point-like defensive positions, and the distance between each other should not be too far. The orders received by each unit are generally to arrive at the predetermined target within 2 hours and start building positions. Beyond these two hours, the Alliance Staff estimated that they would have at least half a day to a day to reinforce their positions.
Major Deliu's army came to participate in the encirclement.
If the encirclement plan goes well, they will launch a fierce attack on the Mechanical Legion from the south, forming a double-sided attack on the enemy with the Xifeng Brigade in the north; if the encirclement plan does not go well, they can also help. The 2nd Regiment of the Beast Slaughter Brigade blocked the mechanical legion's southward escape route.
But this elite mechanical army responded much faster than expected.
Those iron men realized that something was wrong, and they quickly sent out the vanguard to ensure that the road to retreat southward was safe.
This is normal, but what is abnormal is that the number of the vanguard troops they sent far exceeded the initial estimate of the staff. A considerable portion of the heavy artillery originally supporting the frontal battlefield was even deployed to attack the outflanking infantry companies from behind.
At this time, the troops of the 2nd Regiment of the Beast Slaughter Brigade suffered a serious blow.
3What happened to the Company and the 9th Company is the epitome of this problem.
They were not the only ones who had trouble. The positions of multiple companies were also attacked, and all suffered varying degrees of losses.
However, the 3rd company and the 9th company were the two worst companies, and they were almost wiped out.
Major Deliu felt ashamed.
When his troops arrived here, it happened to be when those mechanical monsters launched their last wave of offensive. They had already detected the battle situation here in advance, and the artillery company in the combined battalion deployed their artillery positions and opened fire on the enemy; the two fastest mechanized infantry companies were racing over the desert.
But they were still a step slow. By the time their artillery fire was unleashed, the enemy was already conducting the final wave of attacks; by the time the Rambler armored vehicles were in place, the enemies who realized that they could not successfully break through retreated like a tide.
In the position, they only found one survivor, a sergeant from the 3rd company of the 2nd regiment of the Beast Slaughter Brigade, but fighting on the 9th company's position.
Faced with the sergeant’s request to act with them, Major Deliu was embarrassed and chose to refuse.
What he said was against the rules, Sergeant Dimitrao should report to his unit and report what happened here to his superiors.
But in fact, the more important reason is
guilt.
In addition to feeling guilty for arriving late, there is also a more core element. The 47th Brigade, which was supposed to guard the south and blockade the southbound enemies, let in such a large wave of mechanical legions. They obviously committed a crime. Big mistake.
Whether it was a mistake or a capability problem, in the end, it was their failure to do this well that allowed the brother troops in the middle to be suddenly attacked and to hold on to their position despite such a large numerical gap.
The troops that Deliu belonged to went north to participate in the encirclement, which was to make up for the situation.
Perhaps, for the overall situation of the war, it was not too late for them to move north; but for the 3rd and 9th companies, it was too late.
Under such circumstances, how could he have the nerve to let Dimitrao follow?
What if Miaomiao, the only one left in the two companies, died in the subsequent battle? Yes, he will feel guilty to death.
After seeing the situation in the 9th Company position, all the soldiers of the 475th Battalion had a mentality similar to that of their chief officer.
They were so ashamed that they burst into rage.
The only way to wash away the shame is to use the remains of the enemy
Farewell to Dimitrao, the nine hundred soldiers of the 475th Battalion continued to go north.
Three hours later, they received an order from the headquarters requiring them to attack the enemy.
As a result, the Lion tank, the Rambler tank, and the 155 towed artillery poured the anger of the soldiers onto the heads of those mechanical monsters. They have to use this method to wash away their shame.
TopographyOn the flat battlefield, armored troops spread out in huge numbers. The artillery stopped far away, and 12 heavy guns began to project firepower in the direction of the armored force's attack. One hundred artillery shells were fired almost every two minutes, and the 475th Battalion's artillery reserve was enough to fight like this for twenty minutes.
After the artillery fire, the Lion tank was at the forefront, the tank cannon fired continuously, and the parallel machine gun it was equipped with fired wildly.
Accompanying the charge beside the tanks are infantry fighting vehicles. The machine guns on them cannot penetrate the armor of the tanks on the opposite side, but they are fatal to other units. The machine gun equipped on it can be raised to attack flying drones. Not to mention, there are also several anti-aircraft tanks, specialized anti-aircraft machine guns and equipped fire control systems, which have an even more outstanding effect on drones.
The enemy obviously did not have deep defenses in the south. The troops resisting the line seemed to be the one that attacked the 9th company position. As a result, they lost more than one-third of their troops and lost most of the Challenger tank machinery. force.
They were unable to resist the 475th Battalion's retaliatory counterattack. After being blasted by artillery and then charged by armored troops, the entire defense line was penetrated. Then the infantry on top wiped out the remaining enemies, and the entire battle tilted completely towards Major Deliu's side without any resistance.
Subsequently, the troops continued to move forward and discovered the enemy's main artillery positions.
There are at least a hundred self-propelled artillery guns there, with their muzzles facing north.
This artillery position was stabbed in the butt by the armored troops, so what is the outcome?
The entire unmanned self-propelled artillery position was completely demolished within half an hour. , not a single self-propelled artillery escaped.
At the alliance field command post, more than a dozen officers gathered here.
They had just received the latest intelligence. The battle ahead was generally over. The alliance army naturally won the final victory. They broke through from the southern front and attacked the camp on West Desert Avenue. A mechanical army has been wiped out.
Fifteen thousand mechanical units of various types were all annihilated here.
The overall situation has been decided.
This overall situation not only refers to the current battle, but also includes the entire Operation Flash Tail.
According to the alliance's reconnaissance intelligence, Blackbird Heavy Industries' last mobile force that can be mobilized along the entire defense line is already here.
This certainly does not mean that the loss of more than 15,000 mechanical units is a major setback to Blackbird Heavy Industry. However, the 400,000 units Blackbird deployed on the front line were also scattered across thousands of kilometers of front lines, and were spread quite thinly.
When the Alliance pinpointed a location and conducted Operation Flash Tail, and after three days of destroying a huge protrusion three hundred kilometers away, Blackbird could only mobilize so many troops in the surrounding area in a short period of time.
Other troops, of course, whether elsewhere on the front, still at the rear. But they can't fly over. There are no more here.
These fifteen thousand enemies are finished, and Blackbird no longer has the ability to dispatch troops in a short period of time. This means that the Xifeng Brigade, the Beast Slaughter Brigade, the 47th Brigade, and the 48th Brigade The huge protrusion nearly 300 kilometers away has been secured and there is no other threat.
Under their front, their target, the enemy's logistics distribution base with the Tail Scorpion Oasis as its core, has been completely exposed.
It is estimated that in no more than three days, they will achieve the expected combat goal and completely destroy the enemy's logistics support base.
Ammunition, batteries, and fuel have been destroyed, and the enemy's army composed of purely mechanical units will face greater and more unsolvable difficulties than the human army.
The human troops have no vehicles and no food, but they can still run on two legs. With guns and cannons, and relying on dry food and water bottles with them, they can work for another two or three days. Just hold on. Although it will test the morale and the tenacity of the soldiers, there is always a way.
But the mechanical army is different. Without the battery and fuel, it’s gone. If I say I’m lying down, I’m lying down. I can’t even move.
At the end of Operation Flash Tail, after they have secured the enemy's logistics center, there will be some operations. Block the enemy's retreat and sweep the enemy's supply routes from further rear areas. Other fraternal forces on the entire front will launch attacks, not seeking to destroy the enemy, but only to bite and consume it.
According to estimates, if they take another three days, all the mechanical troops who have not had time to withdraw will never be able to withdraw. Human troops will then be able to capture countless immobile mechanical units on the road and destroy them without any effort.
From this perspective, this flash tail operation is of great significance. But now, the dawn of victory has shone. It stands to reason that the atmosphere in this frontline command post should be very good.
But the truth is exactly the opposite.
The dozen or so officers in the command post are all from the four brigades involved in the operation. Either the brigade commander, the brigade chief of staff, or the brigade political commissar. Among the school-level officers in Yishui, the lowest is a major, and most are lieutenant colonel.
Under normal circumstances, there will be many combat staff here.
They gathered here, under the eyes of the senior officers of the four brigades, working together to coordinate the joint actions of the four brigades.
Before, this place was busy and meticulous. Information was passed on one after another. After simple and efficient communication, orders were passed on one after another.
Now that victory has come, all the ordinary staff officers have been driven out, leaving only the senior officers of each brigade.
The supreme commander of the entire operation is undoubtedly the person in charge of the Western Theater Command, Major General Yan Fangxu. But he himself is not here, but sitting in the rear. After all, although Operation Flash Tail is important,, but he still has to shoulder the command of more than 20 division and brigade-level units in the entire western theater, and cannot go directly to the front line.
So, under him as the supreme commander, a frontline commander was set up among the four brigades.
The person in charge is Colonel Ruji Likosi, the highest-ranking military officer in the current command post.
There are actually two colonels here, and the other one is Colonel Danny DeVillis of the Quenching Brigade. He succeeded Perbov to the position of group commander of the Black Arrow Expeditionary Force and was still relatively junior.
Relatively speaking, Colonel Li Kexi’s qualifications are much higher. He was once a mercenary who lived in Junk Town, and he founded the Beast Slaughter Group. When the Alliance took control of Junk Town, he was one of the first investors to invest in it, which was regarded as a capital investment.
Then, the 3rd independent regiment of the alliance was established based on the past beast-slaying regiment. Relying on its solid record, it produced many heroes, the most famous of which was the King of Soldiers, La Crocha. The Independent Regiment also relied on its military exploits to regain the special designation of Beast Slayer and was upgraded to the Alliance's 3rd Beast Slayer Brigade.
During this process, Li Kexi's military rank was upgraded three times, from major to colonel. But his position has always been the leader of the beast-slaying brigade. During this battle, he was appointed as the frontline commander by General Yan Fangxu, responsible for coordinating the cooperation of four brigade-level units. The other three brigades should respect his opinion and accept his dispatch.
In the previous collaboration, Li Kexi always maintained a calm attitude. He didn't say much, and he made decisive decisions every time during a dispute.
But now that the battle was won, some of his emotions could finally be unbearable.
After driving out the ordinary staff officers, he sat in the central position and sprayed wildly for more than ten minutes.
Everyone silently endured the anger of the veteran colonel.
In this battle, the Beast Slaughter Brigade suffered the heaviest casualties.
The ones he criticized the most were the three officers of the 47th Brigade.
