The fierce shelling began to make the Western Sahara Local Forces Alliance a little unbearable. Lin Rui began to order them to retreat to the second line of defense.
After several contacts, neither party took advantage. The terrorists of the Jihadi Alliance lost several armored vehicles and part of their infantry.
Lin Rui¡¯s Western Sahara local armed alliance also suffered losses in the shelling.
But Lin Rui knew very well that this intensity of bombardment would not last long. Just after he pulled the soldiers back to the second line of defense. About ten minutes later, the terrorists from the Jihad Alliance had begun to charge again.
They always maintained a loose and unbroken formation, approaching the position under the cover of armored vehicles and other combat vehicles.
The bullets fired from the defensive firepower on the position intertwined with each other to create a fire net in the air. Whenever the enemy approaches, this fire net appears between the enemy and ourselves, effectively blocking the opponent's attack.
Lin Rui ordered to stick to the purpose of not seeking merit, but seeking no faults. Although ammunition is relatively tight, mortars are still used to suppress the enemy troops from time to time. To relieve the pressure on the second battalion position.
Lin Rui is very clear about the combat purpose of the Jihad Alliance. If they are forced to close the position, especially the enemy's wheeled armor. If you successfully rush into position. It will be difficult to fight them off again.
The fighting at the Second Battalion's position was quite stalemate, and the Eighth Company had asked for help again.
"The Eighth Company is calling the headquarters, please come for support as soon as possible. The Eighth Company is calling the headquarters, please come for support as soon as possible." The communication channel kept calling.
Although there are multiple firepower points on the position, no matter how many machine gun bullets there are, there will be a time when they will be exhausted. To reload a machine gun, the barrel needs to be properly cooled.
But the terrorists from the Jihad Alliance are still pressing towards their position.
In order to effectively support them, the Sixth Company is already moving closer to their position.
Lin Rui demanded that the Sixth Company, while supporting the Eighth Company, must counterattack to regain the first-line position. The joint between the two positions cannot be given up unless absolutely necessary.
This will test the ability of the grassroots commanders of these two small units. But Lin Rui has confidence in them, because the two troops are commanded by his most experienced mercenaries.
Couillard, near Metmalfaq, is a traditional small town in Western Sahara. The town developed from several small villages and the population at that time was not large. It wasn't until the Moroccans took over that he made some progress.
There are no tall buildings in the town. Under the reflection of the setting sun, it is a reddish earth color.
And in the town, Cloverkill and the Red Baron sat facing each other in a room.
There was a chess set in front of them.
The Red Baron looked at the other party coldly. Cloverkill, the Grand Duke of the Secret Society, was still calm and composed.
"The Jihad Alliance's attack is not going well." The Red Baron said in a low voice. "I've long said that these terrorists can't do anything. It's better to replace them with our people."
"There's no rush, let's wait and see." Cloverkill replied, "But our opponents were a bit beyond my expectations. Although they were faced with the embarrassment of insufficient equipment and ammunition, these people fought vigorously.
Hehe, anti-tank trenches were a trick from World War I. It's hard for them to think of such a method.
I bet it must be the idea of ??actuary Jiang An. He is the one I value most among this group of people, besides Lin Rui. A very fine young man. I would even go so far as to say that he is qualified to be a strategist for our organization.
It¡¯s just a pity that he is not in the same boat as us. But if I really want to kill him, I feel really reluctant to do so. "
Cloverkill moved a chess piece one space, looked at the Red Baron and said, "It's your turn."
The Red Baron did not play chess, but looked at him and sneered. "Dig a few trenches just to block the Jihadi Alliance? With such outdated fortifications, are they kidding?"
"No, no, no, I don't think it's a joke." Cloverkill shook his head, "Technology in this world will become outdated, but the main thing is to adapt to local conditions and have correct and appropriate tactical ideas, which will never become outdated.
Don¡¯t underestimate these anti-tank trenches. Although they appeared during World War I, they are already outdated technology.
But the effect is still obvious. For the attacking side, any anti-tank trench can be passed through, it is just a matter of time.
But for the defensive side, they only need to delay the opponent's armored charge.
They got it right.
The layout of defensive positions has always been a combination of fortifications and firepower. Anti-tank trenchesThe function of ?? is never to resist the enemy, but to delay and delay the enemy, slowing down the opponent's breakthrough speed.
If nothing else happens, they will place a large number of anti-tank mines and anti-infantry mines on the other side of the anti-tank trench.
On the other hand, the Jihad Alliance has more than a dozen armored vehicles, but they are all old models. And it's all wheeled armor.
If they want to break through, they must fill in these trenches, and this process will take at least thirty minutes. Plus they don't have professional engineers. I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it in an hour or two.
¡°And within an hour or two, they were completely exposed to enemy fire. From this point of view, Lin Rui and Jiang An, at least in terms of tactical thinking, won. "
The Red Baron sneered, "So what? The Jihad Alliance's military and firepower advantages are obvious, plus Morocco refuses to assist them.
¡°The most they can do is delay time by stubbornly resisting like this. I can't think of anything else these damn mercenaries and those local guerrillas can do? "
Cloverkill nodded, "I think so too. The key point of this battle is that in order to prevent the enemy from breaking through, they can only delay the opponent. But the longer the fight lasts, the greater the consumption.
Another key point is that we all know that the opponent's equipment and ammunition supplies are not enough to support them in fighting a protracted war. "
After finishing speaking, Cloverkill smiled.
The Red Baron made a move on the chessboard.
But Cloverkill stood up and said, "This move you make may have six changes.
In three of these variations, I won after fourteen moves.
For the other two changes, I will win within eleven and twenty moves respectively.
The last change is that you realize in time that you are going to lose, give up the offensive and actively seek peace. In that case, we will probably reach a stalemate after thirty moves, and there will be a draw.
It¡¯s no longer interesting to continue playing this game of chess. Because all changes are already under my control. "
The Red Baron frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked at him. "Are you so sure that there will be no accidents?"
"Nothing will be unexpected, whether it is this chess game or the battle in Mat Malfaag." Cloverkill smiled.
