    "This can only be dealt with temporarily, and it is difficult to solve the problem in the long term." Lin Rui shook his head, "Tell Hassan immediately that the supply line from Imrikli to Brak must be established as soon as possible."

    ¡°Hassan knows this very well, and I have explained the importance of this issue to him more than once.¡± Actuary Masami nodded.

    "Then urge him twice more. No matter what method he uses, the first batch of supplies must be delivered before tonight." Lin Rui nodded.

    "I will rush them again immediately." the actuary Jiang'an replied.

    The sound of gunfire on the position rang out again.

    At the Orumi Federal Army headquarters in Brak, the Red Baron was extremely angry.

    "The first-line position has still not been recaptured, and our heavy artillery has suffered a devastating blow. At present, our army has concentrated all its forces on the second-line position and the positions along the rear.

    But the current fighting is still very fierce, the business network is intensifying, some troops have suffered more than half of their casualties, and the reserve team has to replenish them.  "An Orumi officer reported in a low voice.

    "For a whole day, we haven't been able to recapture the front line. Who can tell me what on earth are you doing?" the Red Baron said through gritted teeth.

    "Baron, this time we were the party that was attacked. Moreover, the enemy was well prepared, and our troops were already at a disadvantage" an Orumi Federation officer whispered.

    "Then what do you want to do?" the Red Baron said sharply.  "Admit that you failed? Do you want me to shoot you now on the grounds that you neglected your duties and were unable to perform your duties?!"

    The Orumi officer immediately lowered his head.  Dare not say another word.

    "Launch a full-scale offensive, force them, and consume them at an accelerated pace. If they use offense instead of defense, their ammunition reserves will not last long!" the Red Baron said sternly.

    The fierce battle was extremely fierce. At 9 o'clock that day, the Orumi federal army launched a full-line attack on the mercenaries on the front line.  A group of Japanese troops had launched a tentative charge towards the front line but were repulsed.

    At 10 o'clock, the Orumi Federation's first unit had entered the attack starting position and quietly moved to about half a kilometer in front of the mercenary position.  At the same time, all the mercenaries have entered the position. The mercenaries are hiding in the trenches and waiting for the fierce battle to come.

    Before the battle, the surroundings were very quiet, if not for the occasional sporadic gunshots that broke the unbearable silence.

    Commanders at all levels look through telescopes - those at the forefront do not need telescopes and can already see the enemy clearly with their naked eyes.  At this time, the mercenaries had already entered their shooting positions without the need for orders from their superiors.

    Within a few seconds of the sound of a series of shells being fired, the shells fired by the mortars had already landed in front of the mercenary position.  On a front less than two kilometers long from east to south, fire and thick smoke from shell explosions rose into the sky.

    At the same time, the mercenaries also fired artillery shells at the enemy formation.  But both sides only had mortars.  The killing effect is not good.  After all, many cannons were destroyed by the Orumi federal forces in the previous artillery battle.

    About a few minutes later, the artillery fire of the Orumi Federal Army concentrated on the east side of the front-line position, which indicated that the Orumi Federal Army would launch a key attack on this area.

    Before the dust raised by the shells settled, about five or six armored vehicles began to rush down, repeatedly bombing and strafing some important attack targets.  The south side of the front-line position suddenly turned into a sea of ??fire.

    The straight-line distance between this position and Brak City is only two to three kilometers, because there is a fairly wide open area between this position and the second-line position of the Orumi Federal Army, which is an ideal bridgehead for advancing to counterattack the first-line position.

    And going all the way up from the east side position is the commanding heights in the middle area. Therefore, the battle for the high ground on the south side of the first line position and its vicinity became the most intense place at the beginning of the battle.

    The artillery fire of the Orumi federal army extended back, and then the infantry forcefully charged under the cover of armored vehicles.

    At this time, the mercenaries deployed on the front line fired their light and heavy machine guns together, and the anti-aircraft machine guns behind them also spit out flames in a flat-firing posture.

    The infantrymen of the Orumi Federation were shot one after another, and the sand on the ground was dyed red with blood. The armored vehicles were hit by anti-aircraft machine guns one after another, and they slumped on the position.

    As the main force, the Fourth Mercenary Squadron was deployed on the front line and quickly repelled the enemy's first charge.  Before the smoke on the position had cleared, the commander of the fourth squadron came to the position.

    "Hurry up and repair the fortifications. The stronger the better. After the enemy's attack is repelled, they will launch a second charge soon. Get ready!"

    In this battle, all the frontline units of the mercenary troops suffered a lot of casualties.  Then, about 1 battalion of the Orumi Federal Army accompanied by armored vehicles quickly launched another raid and rushed into the 4th Mercenary Squadron.?position.

    The Fourth Squadron fought tenaciously even though they were not numerically superior. However, the Orumi Federal Army received orders from the Red Baron and could not retreat no matter what, and the frontline position began to waver.

    At this time, Lin Rui ordered the Sixth Squadron to go up for reinforcements and start a close battle with the enemy.  However, within half an hour, more than half of the Sixth Squadron suffered casualties, and the entire squadron was forced to retreat to its original position.

    Although it was a sunny day, the sky was covered with thick smoke, and the sounds of explosions and killings were heard.  The blood everywhere was dazzling, and the scene was like hell.  In just half a day, both sides lost more than a thousand troops near the front-line positions.

    It¡¯s past noon.  The Fourth Squadron suffered too many casualties.  They were forced to withdraw from the southern position and occupied the small high ground to the south of the position to defend.  A mercenary, his body covered with dust and gunpowder smoke, said with difficulty to the commander: "We are the main force in charge of the southeast side and the members of the teaching battalion with the strongest combat effectiveness.

    It is precisely because of this that we were put in the most important place. However, we lost our position in just half a day, but the brothers suffered too much loss.  "

    The commander of the fourth mercenary squadron remained silent.

    The mercenary said: "Captain, my brothers are unwilling to lose their position so quickly. Why not take advantage of the enemy's unsteady footing and take back the position."

    The commander of the 4th Squadron was silent for a moment, and then said: "Yes! We should counterattack immediately. Re-gather the troops, both of us and the entire squadron headquarters will go up!"

    They immediately sorted out the remaining troops. The mercenaries shouted and rushed to the front line position to fight with the enemy. Finally, they suppressed the enemy's momentum of continuing to advance along the front line position.

    However, the remnants of the Orumi Federation Army came for reinforcements, and a large number of enemy troops swarmed in.  The fierce battle once again turned the short southeastern front line into a sea of ??blood.

    The commander and others were carried off injured, and the fourth squadron immediately withdrew again.  As a result, a gap was opened in the first-line defensive position by the Orumi federal army.

    Lin Rui strictly ordered all units to hold their positions and regain the lost positions.

    The actuary has also stated that he has conveyed orders to all ministries and must not retreat!
