After executing Aimar¡¯s execution, Lin Rui immediately notified all army officers to convene a combat meeting.
Actuary Jiang An looked at these rebels, prisoners of war and mercenary soldiers, and whispered, "I believe everyone knows that our current situation is not very good. Today I will briefly introduce the situation we are facing now. The attackers attacking us The enemy force is dominated by the Orumi Federation garrison, which is well-equipped and has a high level of training.
At present, although our army has merged with the troops that entered Redmay before, the total number has reached more than 4,000, but many of them are wounded, so although they have the numerical advantage, they do not have the strength to eat up the enemy's army.
The attacking side may continue to increase its troops. There is no accurate estimate of how many troops there will be. The total number of troops invested should be between 1,000 and 2,000. However, 2,000 people are what the enemy calls themselves. In fact, they should be only 1,000 people. But they have heavy weapons, artillery and infantry fighting vehicles.
It¡¯s not wise to confront them head-on. The only way I can do it is to delay. Delay them so that they cannot deal with us in a short time and cannot effectively control Route 4. At present, the most reliable way is to rely on small towns on the outskirts of the city for effective defense. "
These officers were also silent. Most of them were directly directing the battle on the front line and had a good understanding of the current situation.
"The town of Sagonwe where we are currently located is on a relatively high terrain, located on the west side of Highway 4. It is a large town with three to four hundred households. There are two east-west streets and one There are dilapidated walls around the north and south alleys, and there is a natural avenue extending outward at the southeast end of the town. Judging from the terrain, it is a good place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
But what we want is not just passive defense, we want to counterattack on the basis of solid defense. "The actuary pointed to the map and explained.
¡°The enemy¡¯s armed firepower is superior to ours, how should we fight back?¡± a mercenary asked.
Lin Rui nodded, "There is always a way. Let's take a look at the enemy's situation first. This is the latest information obtained by the reconnaissance team we sent today. The Orumi Federal Army occupied this area overnight. This location is located on Highway 4. The heartland area is also a transportation node connecting several other highways.
The terrain in this area is undulating, with crisscrossing ravines. It is a high hill surrounded by mountains. The top of the mountain is a flat land with a radius of several hundred meters, which is very suitable for deployment. We call it Highland A. To the north is a steep cliff, with a deep trench below. The slopes on the east and west sides are steeper, and only the south slope is gentler, which can be used as an attack route.
Therefore, their location is also difficult to defend and difficult to attack. Dozens of households originally lived on the southern slope of that place, and a series of village buildings were built along the mountain wall. Now, the people in the village have already moved out. Opposite the south slope is a higher soil slope, which we temporarily call highland C. They also deployed a lot of manpower there, and they competed with the Orumi Federal Army's Camp A on Highland.
From high ground C, you can use firepower to control several forks leading to Highway 4. Therefore, while the enemy troops occupied this area, they also occupied Highland C. Judging from the results of our reconnaissance, they also built fortifications in two places overnight, dug tunnels, removed the thatched roofs of local residents and put them on top to build shelters.
On the flat ground of Highland C, the Orumi Federal Army also set up several heavy machine guns. In this way, the Japanese army formed a tight fire network on Highland A and Highland C. This is their basic defensive situation, but their main strength is still used in offense. "
"That's right." Actuary Ma'an nodded and said, "They have assembled most of the team between Highland A and Highland C. They are ready to attack us at any time. And our strategy is to lure the enemy deep and trap them. In the town of Sagunwe.
In order to break the deadlock, they are bound to invest most of their troops in the town of Sagunwe. Then we send a rapid assault force to attack the enemy headquarters in a roundabout way. This is a typical tactic of relying on a large number of main forces to contain the opponent and using a small number of elite raids.
The specific attack deployment is that the people of the first brigade and the Anmol troops will be together, stick to the front, and defend against attacks from the northeast and southeast sides of Highland A. The second brigade is an independent route, defending side by side with the previous route from the northwest side of the town.
The first column of the Trident is also a separate road, deploying defensive flanks from south to north to contain the enemy's left wing on the south side. The second column of Trident is a separate group, responsible for the task of surprise attack, bypassing the enemy's defense and making a circuitous attack from west to east. The third column serves as the reserve team. "
Actuary Shogan knew that these Orumi Federation rebels may not fully understand his combat intentions. In order to avoid misunderstandings and misinterpretations, he only briefly discussed the deployment location and specific combat operations, relying entirely on temporary command. Each combat unit only needs to obey orders and act.
After the meeting, all participating troops quickly moved towards the designated attack area.?Go to the location. Lin Rui looked at his watch and frowned slightly. "It seems a little strange. It took a long time for the enemy troops to withdraw and adjust this time. According to general circumstances, they should complete the redeployment as soon as possible. Then while it is still dark, launch another round of offensive to maintain pressure on us. This is What's wrong?"
"We are lucky. According to the report of the reconnaissance force, the enemy seems to have lost an important figure during our shelling. It is very likely that he was a high-level commander. His death directly led to the enemy's There's something wrong with the chain of command. So they need more time to put it together," the actuary nodded.
"Really? This is really an unexpected bonus." Lin Rui smiled, "I just wanted to use concentrated shelling to buy us time to evacuate, but I didn't expect that it actually killed an enemy commander."
Actuary Shogan also looked at his watch, "There are still a few hours before dark. To be honest, the enemy's redeployment is very detrimental to our attack. The road was originally very narrow, making it difficult for large forces to deploy. From the current situation It seems that the enemy will be more difficult to deal with after reorganization. The current battle is likely to be a fierce battle." Actuary Masakishi couldn't help but feel worried.
"It is impossible to change the combat plan, and for the sake of Highway 4, we must annihilate or expel this enemy force." Lin Rui whispered.
After careful consideration, Lin Rui decided to use the night to launch an attack in advance. After he told the actuary Shogan this plan, the actuary was shocked.
"Take the initiative?" Actuary Jiang'an said in surprise. "This won't work! I said that there are prerequisites for a sneak attack on the enemy's rear headquarters. The prerequisite is that we attract a large number of enemy troops, so that we can create opportunities for a sneak attack on the enemy's headquarters. Direct action is absolutely not possible."
