Chapter 4187 Stick to the Order

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Not only did Smara fall, but several satellite towns around Smara also fell.  The Popular Front of Western Sahara was greatly encouraged by this, and Ernest issued a general order to commend it.

    But Lin Rui bluntly pointed out the current predicament, "Although we have occupied Smara, this situation will not last long. The importance of Smara means more to the Moroccans than to us.  Much more.

    So they will definitely counterattack in a big way, and when that time comes, Smara will definitely not be able to hold on.  We have thought about at least two evacuation plans. If the enemy counterattacks in a large scale, we must retreat.  "

    Ernest was silent for a while and said, "Are you sure Smara can't defend it?"

    "With our current strength and equipment, we absolutely cannot defend Smara. So my suggestion is to use a small number of elite troops to delay the enemy and cover the withdrawal of the main force. Sir, you insist on attacking Smara in an attempt to  Increase the prestige of the Popular Front of Western Sahara and inspire the courage of the people of Western Sahara.

    I understand this, and I did what you asked.  I have brought you a victory that should be enough to make all Western Saharans understand that you, the Popular Front, remain the backbone of the fight against the Moroccan invasion.

    But what we do next is to protect your team.  The Moroccans are bound to counterattack Smara with all their strength, and they are very likely to use a large number of National Defense Forces troops originally deployed on the Algerian border.  In terms of strength comparison, we have absolutely no chance of winning.

    It can be said that there is no possibility of holding Smara. I have warned you about this.  The only way now is to escape unscathed, or to complete the evacuation with minimal losses.  Lin Rui replied.

    "Okay, I agree. If you really can't defend Smara, you can retreat. But you can't retreat now. You should understand that our original intention of attacking Smara is to boost morale. Let the people of Western Sahara know that we  Resisting.

    But what if, after occupying Smara, you flee without fighting.  Then all our previous efforts will be in vain.  Even just some symbolic resistance can let everyone see that we are working hard.  "Ernister hesitated and said.

    "I think you should understand that if we evacuate now, we can escape unscathed. But if we wait until the enemy launches an offensive, our chances of evacuating without any damage will be much smaller.

    This is not about running away without a fight, but about assessing the situation and making the most reasonable tactical choice.  Lin Ruirui shook his head and said.

    "I understand what you mean, Mr. Rick, and I appreciate your efforts. But I still insist that we cannot retreat without a fight. At least we must retreat only when Lee's army launches an offensive and you are really unable to resist it.  ¡± insisted Ernest.

    "Mr. Ernest, do you know that your choice is sending these Western Saharan soldiers into an extremely risky situation? The enemy has armored forces and air superiority. We only have infantry, and our numbers are still lower than the enemy's.

    If you retreat in time, you may be able to get rid of the enemy.  But if we wait until a formal battle begins, whether the troops can be withdrawn is a big question.  Motorized infantry has no chance of winning against mechanized troops.  What's more, the opponent's number is still higher than ours.  Lin Rui shook his head.

    "We must hold on for at least one to two days. The propaganda department wants to make a fuss about this victory and has contacted reporters from various countries. A press conference is being held. You cannot evacuate immediately at this time. At least try to hold on for 1 to 2 days. This is the best option.  Basic requirements." Ernest said, "This is not only what I mean, but also what the committee means."

    "Fuck your committee!" Lin Rui couldn't help but swore, "How many people in your committee know how to fight? Under such circumstances, letting us stick to Smara is purely seeking death. Do you understand?  This is allowing your soldiers to die in vain."

    "Mr. Rick, I understand your excitement. But you also have to understand us. The Alliance for the Liberation of Western Sahara is pressing forward step by step. Now many people in Western Sahara are beginning to be skeptical of everything we do. This has been the case in the past few decades.  A new situation that has not happened in years.

    The people think we are too weak and passive to avoid war.  But the Alliance for the Liberation of Western Sahara is fighting the Moroccans.  We are losing the trust of our people and we have to do something to regain that trust.  This is why we insist on attacking Smara.

    Mr. Rick, we have no choice in this matter.  Ernest whispered.

    "But have you ever thought about it? Once we suffer a major military attack in Smara and thousands of Western Sahara young people die here, do you think Western Saharans will still believe you or your Western Saharan government?  Really?" Lin Rui couldn't help but said.

      "This is what you need to do, you need to try to bring our soldiers back safely in an extremely adverse environment. I know that we don't have many choices, and you may be their last hope." Ennis  Te replied, "I'm sorry to do this, but there is nothing I can do. I have to go to the press conference. Goodbye"

    Lin Rui hung up the phone silently.  General Edgar Landau looked at him and frowned, "What did the high command say?"

    "It's all bullshit." Lin Rui shook his head, "They don't agree to evacuate early. They want us to stay here for at least 1 to 2 days, but they have not considered that the enemy will not give us that long at all.

    When the enemy begins to attack, our situation will be very disadvantageous.  Their armored forces will surround Smara from three directions.  It is very likely that we will all be locked up in the Smara area.  "

    "The most important thing is that they still have air superiority. They will carry out air strikes in the Smara area. We don't have many air defense weapons, and it is impossible to shoot down F16 fighters with shoulder-fired individual missiles." Edgar Rondo  The general shook his head.

    Lin Rui whispered, "Calling officers at all levels, we need to hold a meeting. Make detailed evacuation arrangements. Let the soldiers clear the streets and keep the roads clear."

    Edgar Rondo nodded and said, "These are already being done. The city hall has been cleared out. Do you plan to hold a meeting there? Our temporary command post is set up there, and most of the officers are currently there."

    "Just go there, we don't have much time. Every minute wasted may lead to the death of a soldier. To be honest, this is the most ridiculous mission I have ever taken, but I still don't have a choice." Lin Rui  Shake his head.

    General Edgar Rondo called all officers for a meeting via radio.
