Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the next few days, Lin Rui, Jiang An, and General Quinn, the head of the Moroccan militia, have been consulting with each other on the defense of Palimou.  General Quinn respected their opinions and almost obeyed the requests made by Lin Rui and others.

    A few days later, news came from the intelligence agency.  The jihadi alliance forces that occupied the surrounding areas were mobilized almost at the same time.  Actuary Jiang An immediately informed Lin Rui of this information.

    Lin Rui looked at the map, "What was supposed to come finally came."

    "There is another not-so-good news. The number of enemy troops is estimated to be greater than before. After the members of the Jihad Alliance occupied the surrounding areas, they have been forcibly recruiting young adults to join the war. Many of them were bewitched by them  Many Western Saharan youths are also locals who were forcibly recruited by them.

    Although these people have little combat experience, they are enough to increase our consumption.  According to the latest intelligence, the number of troops they have assembled this time will probably reach about 20,000.  "The actuary Masaki replied.

    "So many?" Lin Rui frowned slightly, "This is a bit tricky. Based on their original estimate of strength, I thought their strength was only a little over 10,000 at most. In the absence of heavy weapons, they have to face 20,000 enemies.  Attacking is not easy.¡±

    The actuary general nodded, "We have already learned about the enemy commander. It is very likely that he will be Abu Olama, a leader of the Jihad Alliance. This person was a former member of Al Qaeda. He is different from other  A terrorist. He does not engage in terrorist attacks. He is responsible for military operations. He also has experience in commanding large forces in combat. It is said that he is very good at commanding large-scale operations."

    "Damn, I hate fighting big battles. But they have given me such an opponent who can fight big battles." Lin Rui sighed, "If they have so many more people than us, it will be difficult to defend.  It will rise to another level.¡±

    "Yes. I have studied this Orama. This person is proficient in guerrilla tactics. He is likely to avoid our defensive positions and attack from the flanks or in a roundabout way. In addition, they have enough manpower, they are likely to launch multiple attacks.  Attack. Force us to spread out our defense forces.

    And they also have multiple rocket launchers and infantry support weapons, as well as a large number of armed vehicles.  I'm afraid we will have a very hard time fighting this battle.  "Jiang'an said realistically.

    "What's Morocco's response? What about the air assistance we need? What's their response?" Lin Rui turned around and asked.

    "The Royal Moroccan Air Force will cooperate with us in launching attacks and bombing terrorists. But the number may not be too many. At most, it will be 2-3 rounds of air strikes. It can only be used to suppress the opponent when it is most dangerous, and I am afraid that the other  We still have to rely on ourselves." Jiang An replied.

    "It's good to have this, it's better than nothing. Inform General Quinn that a curfew will be implemented in the city from now on. All troops will be on combat readiness. Also inform Cobain that we need to use satellites for reconnaissance." Lin Rui whispered.

    "This is a bit difficult." Jiang An shook his head.

    "What's wrong?" Lin Rui asked.

    "Currently, Silver Wolf and the others need to use satellites for their mission in Libya, so they may not be able to take care of our side for the time being. You also know that we are not wealthy Americans. They have many spy satellites in Africa, but we only have this one  It can barely be used for reconnaissance, and it can't be deployed for a while." Jiang An shook his head.

    "If this is the case, we will not be able to know the enemy's movements in time. It will be much more difficult to take action." Lin Rui pondered.  "How is the supply situation in the city? Can it handle a long battle?"

    "Arms reserves are not a problem. Those Moroccan militiamen are actually Moroccan reserves. After we recaptured Palimou last time, Morocco provided a large amount of weapons, equipment and supplies. But the situation of ordinary citizens is not optimistic. Once the fighting starts, Duan  The problem is not big within a time, but if it lasts for too long, the lack of supplies for the citizens in the city will cause panic and chaos, causing us more trouble." Jiang An paced back and forth.

    "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "The statistical work has been ongoing, but it has just been reported. General Quinn is already processing it." Shogan replied.

    Lin Rui frowned and said, "How does he plan to solve it?"

    "Implement comprehensive control. Food, medicine and daily necessities in the city are compulsorily collected and classified as military control. A unified rationing system is also implemented to provide regular and rationed supplies to citizens. Although this cannot solve the fundamental problem, it can at least help us stabilize the current situation.  situation. To prevent citizens from causing panic and riots due to lack of food and medicine." Masagishi replied.

    "That's true. But just like you saidYes, these cannot solve the fundamental problem.  No matter what, we must try to ensure the supply of food and drinking water during wartime.  And we must intensify our efforts to punish crime, and there must be no civil unrest in our cities while we resist these terrorists.  Otherwise, the situation will not be good.  Lin Rui thought for a moment and said. "According to the current situation, how long can the city's reserves last?"  "

    "The water is not too scarce, but the food can only last for a week." Jiang'an replied.

    "How is it possible? Such a big city only has a week's worth of food reserves?" Lin Rui said in disbelief.

    "There is only so much official control, and other resources are concentrated in private hands. It is impossible for businessmen to take out the food and medicine they have hoarded. They prefer to sell them at a high price. You know that once the war starts, prices will skyrocket.  Many of them are businessmen waiting to hoard." Jiang An shook his head.

    "Notify Quinn to inspect the shops of these merchants, confiscate all supplies, and centralize control. Then ask him to issue a temporary decree, and all supplies in the city will be confiscated. After the war is over, the Moroccan government will complete the settlement with these merchants. Everything  Anyone who disobeys this temporary law will be punished as a collaborator." Lin Rui thought for a while and said.

    "Confiscating private property? This may cause resistance among some people in the city." Jiang An frowned.

    "The situation is urgent. If there is resistance, suppress it immediately. This will offend some people, but it is better than the whole city falling into riots. Besides, make it clear to these merchants and say that it was requisitioned by His Majesty the King. After the battle, go find them  His Majesty the King wants money." Lin Rui shook his head.  "Anyone who disobeys will be arrested for trying to hoard supplies and finance jihadists."

    "It seems that this is the only way." Jiang An smiled, "Actually, General Quinn is already doing this."

    "Oh, I don't see that this old man is quite far-sighted. That's fine. It's not appropriate for us to get involved in such matters. Let the Moroccans handle Moroccan affairs. No one can say anything wrong." Lin Rui nodded.  .
