- The fighting just stopped, Lin Rui held the communicator in his hand and made a gesture to the actuary Jiang An, "Follow me to the frontline observation post."
The actuary nodded, and the two of them immediately arrived at the observation post on the position. This is a very good observation location, and you can see the smoke beside the anti-tank ditch from a distance.
"It looks like the battle is not small, isn't it?" Lin Rui held up the binoculars and whispered, "This is just a tentative attack. The real pressure is behind."
"Yeah, I don't know if those guys on the battlefield can hold on." Actuary Jiang'an said in a low voice.
Lin Rui held up the telescope and observed the changes on the position. A large number of Jihadist Alliance soldiers have begun to retreat, and occasionally a few soldiers can be seen running around in panic.
Lin Rui put down the telescope and told the actuary general, "Inform all troops to prepare to defend against enemy shelling and enter anti-shelling bunkers.
This round of attack was frustrated. If the enemy reorganizes a little, he will definitely launch an artillery bombardment, using the artillery bombardment as a precursor to launch an attack on our positions. "
"Understood." Actuary Jiang'an nodded.
"The defensive position where the Second Battalion is located is the only way for the enemy to advance towards us. The position where the Second Battalion is located is on a higher ground and is close to the highway. It is impossible to pass without controlling the highland highway.
Therefore, their pressure should be the greatest. Anti-tank trenches can only play a temporary role and cannot keep the enemy out forever. They must be strengthened and supplemented. Lin Rui held up the telescope and whispered while observing.
"The Second Battalion, together with the Fourth Battalion, set up two joint defense lines, commanding the enemy. The enemy was completely under our firepower.
But due to our current shortage of equipment and ammunition, we have not deployed traditional defensive ring fortifications. It's a ladder defense, a combination of light and heavy.
We have placed machine guns and infantry support weapons on front-line positions in order to exert the limited power of heavy firearms.
But on the front-line position, we only deploy a small part of our troops, and the remaining troops are hidden in the second line to recharge and attack the enemy at the critical moment.
¡°In addition, we are still asking the soldiers to dig more fortifications. "The actuary Masaki replied.
"You have more experience than me in this area, and you are always more thoughtful than me." Lin Rui nodded, "added, I require each soldier to dig at least two bunkers.
We must fully consider the situation where the bunker is damaged after enemy shelling and cannot be repaired in time. "
¡°I¡¯ve also taken this into consideration.¡± Actuary Masami nodded. "In addition, I have strengthened and deployed a reserve team there, which can step in at any time in times of crisis. And that reserve team has only one mission, and that is to assist the second and fourth battalions."
Lin Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "With you here, I think I should take up arms to fight and leave everything here to you. Otherwise, I feel like I'm a bit redundant here."
Actuary Jiang An shook his head, "You can't say that. You are the combat commander, I am just a staff officer at best. This battle will probably be very difficult, and we cannot afford to lose the commander.
So you have to stay at the headquarters until the last moment.
¡°If it really comes down to the last minute, I will take the gun with you. "
Lin Rui nodded, "Thank you."
"We are all brothers in life and death, so we can just say thank you." Actuary Jiang An smiled.
Around ten o¡¯clock in the morning, the fierce artillery fire came to mind again on the position that had been quiet for a while.
This time, the terrorists from the Jihadi Alliance launched an attack on the outer positions under the cover of artillery fire.
The first attack was on a section of the position in charge of the Eighth Company of the Second Battalion. The soldiers of the local alliance were hiding in individual bunkers to protect themselves from shelling. Everyone looked disgraced.
To be honest, when we asked them to dig these bunkers. Many local alliance soldiers were simply unwilling to do it. They didn't understand why they were fighting, and they still had to use shovels to dig holes.
What¡¯s more, this place is both sandy and salt marsh soil, so it¡¯s not that easy to dig for defense and offensive. This was done completely under the strict orders of Lin Rui and others.
But after the shelling ended, they discovered that it was these bunkers that saved their lives in the end.
The terrorists from the Jihad Alliance bypassed the direction of the anti-tank ditch and launched an attack on the position of the Second Battalion.
Since equipment and ammunition are relatively tight, and the training of the armed forces in these places is limited, Lin Rui requested that the opponent be placed thirty meters away before firing violently.
The heavy firepower deployed in advance formed a cross fire network. Inflict serious damage to the opponent and force him to retreat.
Lin Rui goes to and from the observation center? Between the headquarters and at the observation post, he found that the enemy's key attack positions were all at the location of the Eighth Company.
After careful observation, he discovered that the position of that position was at the connection with the Fourth Battalion position.
The enemy chose this location as a breakthrough, not only to easily approach the position, but also to use the sand dunes on both sides to form a shooting blind spot for the local coalition forces.
The sand dune on one side is a natural shelter for the attack to gather and retreat to the camp.
Lin Rui immediately ordered the sausage and handed him the binoculars in his hand.
"What's wrong, boss?" Sausage was a little confused.
"Have you seen that position? The sand dunes over there. If the battle persists until tonight, the outer positions of the second camp have not been captured.
I want you to take advantage of the night and lead people to plant a large number of explosives and landmines there. Lin Rui whispered.
"You mean, when they attack again, we will give them a surprise attack?" Sausage understood.
"Smart. You showed me the correct position. Don't make a mistake when we move at night." Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder.
After the enemy withdrew, they concentrated more artillery fire on the position here. But it still had little effect.
The anti-gun bunkers in the trenches played a big role. But even so, many local alliance soldiers had their eardrums injured.
A veteran patted the recruit on the head angrily, "During the bombardment, open your mouth, you know? If you don't want to be injured, you have to do this. No matter how much sand there is, just spit it out after the bombing."
The recruit was confused and nodded.
In fact, what this veteran said is very reasonable. He used to be an artilleryman.
During shelling, artillerymen usually open their mouths to balance the air pressure inside and outside the mouth. Because when the cannon is ejected from the chamber, a lot of gunpowder gas will be emitted from the muzzle. It will have a great impact on people next to the artillery, just like the shock wave of an explosion.
If you don¡¯t open your mouth, it will cause an imbalance in the internal and external pressure of the tympanic membrane. Severe cases can cause tympanic membrane perforation.
The explosion of an incoming artillery shell is actually based on the same principle. In addition to the damage caused by shrapnel, the other damage caused by the artillery shell is the explosion shock wave.
If it really hits you head-on, it will be useless. Even if there wasn't a single wound on his body, he would still be shocked to death.
But if you are farther away and inside a bunker, the impact of the impact will of course be much smaller. Opening your mouth can also prevent eardrums from being damaged.
