Another officer also blinked and said: "We might as well request supplies from the headquarters. In addition, we also need to fully study the enemy's situation. I think it is best for us to send out a few more troops to reconnoiter these areas. The large troops will not advance for the time being. Of course, We must also ask the headquarters for instructions. Sir, what do you think?"
Elijah said slowly: "At present, it seems that there is still a big problem in terms of supplies. Even if it is strictly limited, it can only support a few days. It is impossible for all our soldiers to fight hungry. Therefore, I agree to send troops to see Let's see what happened to the transportation team.
In addition, we also took the opportunity to reconnoiter these areas to see if there are indeed a large number of rebels. Although I personally think this is likely to be a smoke screen for the enemy to confuse us, I don't rule out that rebels from other places are advancing and trying to join up with Redmay's rebels.
We quickly dispatched a force to continue to detect enemy movements in the area east of Highway 4, especially in this area and here. As long as the enemy's main force is discovered here, all the enemy's tricks will be exposed. Secondly, I personally took charge of Fairland and continued to clean up the suburbs around Redmay City. In this way, you can not only search for food, but also detect the enemy's reality. "
Originally, there was nothing wrong with Elijah's plan. Although he detached part of his troops, he maintained frontal pressure on Redmire from beginning to end. But to his surprise, Redmay's rebel army was actually very tenacious. It withstood their offensive for several days.
And the search in the suburbs did not find more food supplies. A few days later the Third Division was almost out of food. The news that followed made Elijah even more anxious. The transport detachment was found, but not their convoy. An entire transport team was killed on the roadside.
Although we have reapplied for supplies, it still takes time to transport them. And according to the news from the reconnaissance force, many important towns in the rear have fallen into the hands of the rebels. No one knew where these troops came from.
??And almost all of the transportation and supply lines of the Orumi Federal Army are under the control of the rebel army. If the other party is willing, they can get whatever they want from their transportation team. If you want to rob, grab it; if you want to block it, block it.
Is this okay? Before the battle even started, the entire logistics and transportation line was in the hands of the enemy. Elijah couldn't bear it any longer. In fact, he understood that the enemy was dividing his strength and reducing the frontal pressure. But there is no way. If we continue like this without food or water, the troops will be disbanded, let alone fight.
Therefore, he must first solve the rear problem, but if he divides his troops too much, he is afraid that Redmay's rebel army will launch a counterattack. At this time Elijah finally made a decision to move the headquarters and supply center to Murono. Murono is located in the upper reaches of the Atelia River.
Although the Atria River has stopped flowing due to the dry season, there is a reservoir in Murono, which can at least ensure the supply of water. And if the supply center is moved there, the supply routes will be different from before. Although the transportation route may be a little longer. But the embarrassment of passing through a large number of enemy-occupied areas is completely avoided.
In this way, there is no need to worry about the safety of the rear transport detachment, and the several previously dispatched troops can be recalled. As long as they stick to the flanks, the rebels will have no chance. He can also focus more on the battle against Red Mai.
In Redmay City, the sound of gunfire and artillery roared one after another. Lin Rui received the call from the reconnaissance team and nodded, "Let them pass."
"What?" Iron Hammer came over and asked. "What happened?"
Lin Rui looked at the map and said: "They are moving in the direction of Murono. I have already said that they will take this step sooner or later." He pointed to an area on the map and said: "Their current situation is very bad. . In order to get rid of our threat to their logistics supplies. They chose to go to Murono, which has tactical merits. But in fact this is a trap I prepared for him."
"Trap?" Iron Hammer looked at the map, "But judging from the map, they can directly receive supplies from the Orumi Federal Capital Region from here. And there is also a large reservoir there, which solves their drinking water problem. question."
"That's right. But in this way, it is equivalent to liberating Kasan's troops. From here, they can penetrate between the two enemy units, actively attack the enemy, cooperate with the frontal blocking troops to attack the enemy, and delay the enemy's escape southward. time.
In this way, the main force led by us can move forward here to set up a position to attack the enemy. Only the Anmor soldiers on the flanks can expand the offensive in the west. "Lin Rui's pen was drawing back and forth on the map.
He immediately called and invited Campbell and other Anmore officers to come to the regiment command post from the front of the position. Campbell was covered in dust and smelled of gun smoke; there were some small cuts on his lips, leaking?blood beads. Lin Rui asked someone to hand him a cup of water. He took it and poured it into his mouth immediately, with water dripping from his chin.
"It looks like the fight was very hard." Lin Rui looked at him and said.
¡°I¡¯ve also experienced hardships worse than this.¡± Campbell nodded.
After Lin Rui informed Campbell of his intentions, he said: "According to our information, they are already moving in the direction of Murono. Tonight, I will ask you to lead a battalion through the middle of the two enemy groups. Yours The troops are closest to here. You go and remove the troops from the line of fire. Follow the plan I gave you."
"What about the position?" Campbell asked.
"The Orumi Rebel Army will take over your position." Lin Rui nodded, "You must rush to the front to join General Kasan and jointly strangle the Orumi Federal Army's power in this area."
Campbell said calmly: "Okay!"
The phone rang loudly. Lin Rui picked up the earphones and heard the colonel's urgent voice: "At position three, the enemy continued shelling and launched infantry and artillery coordination. They have put all their power on us! We have just repelled several enemy charges
"But the number of personnel is still a bit low, and the ammunition cannot be delivered When will Campbell come back? We need artillery support. In addition, we need some more troops, maybe a platoon." "
Lin Rui shook his head and said: "Calm down, Colonel! We won't give you reinforcements. The enemy will retreat soon. This is just a means of their retreat, covering their retreat with firepower. Do you hear me? Not only will I not give you any reinforcements, You reinforce, and I'm moving Campbell and his men away. They have more important operations."
Lin Rui stood by the bunker, looking at the position in front, where the sound of gunfire roared fiercely. He turned around and saw Campbell's face was gloomy. Lin Rui was silent for a while and said, "Don't worry about them, they can survive. What we need to worry about now is our actions."
