    Chapter 1,211 Surrounded by three and missing one

    The Red Baron's plan quickly unfolded, and a large number of Orumi federal troops were mobilized to prepare for a breakout in a fixed direction.

    And this breakout direction is said to be the most reasonable tactic derived from extensive research and demonstration by the Federal Management Committee.  Because the Anmol army's encirclement strategy adopted the method of encircling three and missing one.

    That is to say, it is surrounded on three sides, but a gap is deliberately placed in an unimportant position.  The purpose of this is to allow the enemy to have a reasonable escape route for survival and prevent the Orumi Federal Army from becoming a real trapped beast.  This is the weakness of human nature. As long as there is a way out, who is willing to really fight for it?  When you really fight hard, you are often in a desperate state with no way to survive.

    Regarding Lin Rui¡¯s tactics, the Anmol Army did not have any objections.

    Several radical hawkish officers were very dissatisfied and opposed the plan at the meeting on the spot.

    "Mr. Rick, we are fully capable of completing an encirclement on all sides. Why should we deliberately leave a way for the enemy to retreat? Wouldn't it be better if we trapped them all in Orumi City and annihilated them all?" An officer first raised an objection.  Opinion.

    "Yes, Mr. Rick, we can obviously trap them to death, so why do we deliberately leave an escape route for them? Such an arrangement may very well cause them to break through this gap." Another officer couldn't help but said.

    Lin Rui nodded, "Yes. This arrangement will indeed give them a chance to break through. But I just want to give them such a chance."

    "But why?" the previous officer couldn't help but ask.

    "Since the troops of the Orumi Federal Management Committee took the initiative to disappear, we have won all the way. Up to now, there is no suspense about the outcome. The only suspense is, how much do we have to pay for this victory?" Lin Rui looked at  Everyone.  "Orumi City is the federal capital. In addition to tens of thousands of standing troops, there are also a certain number of military police guards. When necessary, they can also forcibly recruit troops in the city. Everyone, don't forget that this is a large city at the capital level.

    So once we block all escape routes.  When the enemy has no hope of escaping, it is tantamount to forcing the enemy to fight us desperately.  It would be unwise to do this, especially when we are almost certain to win.

    ??For example, let¡¯s say we want to enter a house and occupy it.  But there were more than a dozen vicious dogs in that house.  If we blocked the windows, closed the door, and rushed into the room with all our strength, we could still kill those dozen vicious dogs.  But it would take some time to get rid of these vicious dogs, and he was probably bitten quite badly.  Instead of doing this, it is better to open the back door of the house and drive these vicious dogs out.  This way you can quickly occupy the room and avoid being bitten by dogs.  "

    "What house, what dog?" the officer said blankly.

    "Mr. Rick means that our goal is to quickly conquer Orumi City, rather than fighting the enemy desperately." Actuary Masakishi smiled slightly.

    "Yes, you are all leaders, and you know what consequences a retreat will bring to the troops. Surrounding three and missing one means that the enemy's retreat will turn into a rout. Imagine that the only way to retreat is that there are two wings on both sides.  The enemy's interception. Can they retreat in an orderly manner? Well, even if they can retreat in an orderly manner, are we on their two wings just watching them retreat?" Lin Rui smiled slightly.  "They are running for their lives, and they are nervous. As long as the two wings put a little pressure on them, they will have to change from retreat to rout."

    The actuary looked at them and said, "According to our previous statistics, the troops who retreated, even excluding combat losses, lost almost 30% of their total strength after withdrawing. Because this kind of chaos without command has a large number of personnel  The team has become separated after being unable to keep up, and some personnel have defected or disappeared. Please note that this is still the previous statistics, and it is under the supervision of the Federal Management Committee.

    Now, the Federal Council itself cannot protect itself, and the Capital Region is facing collapse.  In this case, after a major rout, the loss of troops would be at least another 20%.  In other words, even if the 20,000-strong troops were successfully evacuated, they would lose at least 10,000.  This means that we easily destroyed half of the enemies, and there was no need to attack the enemy. We only needed to put a little pressure on the enemy when they retreated.  "

    "That's true, but letting the enemy go always makes people feel uncomfortable. If they reorganize and come back, won't we still have to face a tough battle?" an officer asked doubtfully.

    "There are many purposes for fighting, and sometimes the only criterion is not to kill the enemy's physical strength. Attacking the enemy's heart is the first priority, followed by attacking the city." Lin Rui said slowly, "Orumi City, as the federal capital, once it is captured by our army  Capture, ?Even General Isaac did not dare to take it lightly.

    Facts have proved that Isaac's worries were accurate, and the Anmol army's attack was indeed fierce.

    On the 3rd of that month, the Anmor Army officially launched a large-scale attack. About three battalion-level combat groups launched a fan-shaped attack on the Orumi federal army from the front of Orumi City, focusing on the west side.  That was the main transportation road connecting Ankhwe, and there was no room for failure, so Isaac hurriedly mobilized his troops and tried his best to block the attack of the Anmor army. However, after the first day of battle, he faced huge casualties.  With the numbers, Isaac could only do nothing.

    Before launching the attack, the Anmor army prepared artillery fire for three hours. Cannon howitzers fired continuously. The dense artillery shells almost turned over the land where the Orumi federal army was located.  The Anmol Army has intensified a large number of artillery bombardments in the past time and accumulated a large number of artillery shells. This large outpouring did have a great effect, and the Orumi federal army was almost stunned by the bombing.  In these three hours, the day completely turned into night, and it was the most terrifying night.

    Under intensive artillery bombardment, the frontline positions of the Orumi Federal Army were in a mess. Many Orumi Federal Army soldiers were not killed by shrapnel, but by shock waves. In addition to bleeding from the nose and mouth, they were all covered with blood.  There are no scars on top or bottom.  Many soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time went insane under the shock of the fierce shells. They jumped out of the trenches desperately and ran wildly until their bodies were completely torn apart. The thick smoke and serious injuries caused by the explosions  Lack of oxygen also choked many Orumi Federation soldiers to death.

    In just the first day of the attack, the Anmor army advanced five kilometers. The Orumi federal army lost nearly 3,000 people, and the frontline positions were basically destroyed.  However, this is not what Isaac is most worried about, after all, it is five kilometers behind.  There is also a ten-kilometer defensive buffer zone.  It was enough for the Anmor Army to slowly torment him. What he was most worried about was the armored units of the Anmor Army. They were the deadliest trump card.

    The outer areas of Orumi City have flat terrain and criss-crossing roads, which are most suitable for mobile operations of armored forces. In past wars, infantry with good mobility was basically the decisive force to seize control of the periphery.  This has been basically the case from the original post-colonial period to the present.  It's just that modern weapons have undergone tremendous changes, and the emergence of weapons of mass destruction has made the importance of motorized infantry seem to be slowly decreasing.

    However, facing the Orumi federal army.  The armored forces of the Anmor Army are still very terrifying. If the commander of the Anmor Army does not make good use of the armor, he cannot be regarded as a qualified commander.  Isaac judged that Lin Rui would definitely dispatch his limited armored troops to carry out a thunder strike, but the target of the thunder strike was.  He can't tell yet.

    Soon after, the staff officer sent intelligence, indicating that a large number of Anmor Army armors appeared in the area north of Orumi City. It was very likely that they would cross the river from the bridge there and attack in the direction of Orumi City, and Anmol Army armor in the north.  Along with the infantry of the Moorish Army.  The Orumi federal army was attacked from two sides.  However, after studying it with other officers, General Isaac felt that this was unlikely. If the Anmore army wanted to eat him in one bite, they would not be able to do so yet.

    But in the overall defense line of the Orumi federal army, the area north of Orumi City is a weak spot, because General Isaac really cannot spare so many troops to focus on this area, so he has to give up temporarily.

    However, the Orumi Federal Army is not very concerned about this, because they have their peripheral fortress in the north, as long as this peripheral fortress exists.  If any Anmor army cuts in from here, the one who ends up being attacked from both sides will definitely be the Anmor army itself. He believes that the Anmor army will not do such a stupid thing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
