General Daoud's Fifth Army (formerly the Glorious Durrani Army) had five divisions, all of which were actually high-level, with a division of less than 7,000 soldiers, plus an independent guard regiment around Daoud, and more than 30,000 people in bits and pieces.

The 512th Regiment, which was sent to hunt down and blockade the mountainous area of the Peacock King City, belonged to the 51st Division, while the bearded 533rd Regiment belonged to the 53rd Division.

I'm afraid that even the bearded senior division commander may not be very clear about the military tasks of other troops, so it is normal for him to say that he does not know. In fact, if he hadn't happened to contact the commander of the 512th regiment, he wouldn't even know that the unit had set off.

This Fifth Army is a typical division with a small regiment and a large regiment, not to mention that there are only six or seven thousand division-level troops, but an infantry regiment is fully manned, often close to two thousand men. Therefore, the number of troops rounding up Murong Xiaoshu now is nearly 2,000 people, which is quite terrifying.

And don't expect Xiaoshu and Murong Qianli to be able to hold the head of the regiment hostage and leave, it's impossible. The bearded colonel just thought that he had been kidnapped by accident, and his men had no emergency plan. But the 512 regiment is carrying out the military order to arrest, even if the regiment commander is arrested, the superiors will definitely ask for all the encirclement and interception, even if the regiment commander dies, Murong Qianli must be left behind.

Zhao Xuanji thought for a while: "So, your troops must have so many people?"

He was worried that the other party still had a large force in front, so his car continued to drive forward, and it was very likely to encounter.

The bearded man said that his 533 regiment had a total of more than 1,800 people, and that it was the vanguard just now, and it was a surprise attack and encirclement and suppression. The next thousand or so would arrive in two hours, armed with logistical equipment and some heavy weapons.

Sure enough, Zhao Xuanji guessed correctly, there are still a large number of troops behind, and it seems that the Liberator Tribal Alliance is really going to be miserable. Nearly 2,000 regular troops with sophisticated equipment were able to deal with 2,000 guerrillas, and the guerrillas were scattered in a narrow area of more than 200 kilometers and could not be united, so they had no chance of victory.

However, the bearded man said that it would take two hours for the follow-up troops to come, so it would be no problem. The first ten kilometers are to the public area, which is less than twenty minutes away. When the time comes, turn around and turn north, and you won't encounter those thousands of people.

Even if the troops on the other side received the news that their regiment commander had been kidnapped and quickly transferred troops to surround it, it would take at least half an hour, right?

With a time difference of twenty minutes in between, Roger drove a faster off-road vehicle, and he could always easily get away from the convoy of military trucks.

At this time, Zhao Xuanji also asked a few other questions clearly-

Daoud did reach a consensus with the government army, and the two families actually got along. So what Malalai said was right, yesterday the government army really helped Daoud's Fifth Army shoot and kill a lot of people from the tribal alliance.

And now that the tribal alliance has rebelled (the alliance itself says it is "autonomous"), then the government always has to say suppression, right? But once a war is fought, money is needed, and people will die, so the government army also has to consider the cost.

It just so happened that Daoud's Fifth Army was preparing to fight this battle, so the government army was also happy to see it. Anyway, after you win, you have to leave, and you have to hand over the control of the corridor to the central government.

In addition, the matter of further offending the tribal alliance has also been borne by the Fifth Army, and it is good that the government army will no longer be this villain.

This is where today's phenomenon arises – the small garrison of the government army hastily withdrew from the promenade, allowing the 533rd Regiment of Daoud's Fifth Army to sweep the area, even at the cost of large-scale bloodshed.

You must know that if a regular regiment goes to fight against hundreds of thousands of tribes and 2,000 armed guerrillas, it is inevitable that a large number of casualties will be inflicted, and I am afraid that it will be bloody.

This is the bad thing about a troubled country, and your own family can kill a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Roger asked in Durranny, and then explained to Zhao Xuanji and them, because bearded Mandarin is really difficult.

Roger: "Is it worth it to use troops on a large scale in this barren area, and to return the territory to the government forces after the sweep is over?"

Bearded: "I don't know, I don't think it's worth it, but the division commander said that it was General Daoud's order." General Daoud has a bad temper, he can get angry even if it is a small thing, and he is moody, and no one knows what he thinks. ”

Daoud not only had a bad temper, but also had a nickname called "Bloody Massacre". When he started, he was very brutal, but now his position is too high, and he even has some international popularity, so he knows a little bit about image packaging. But even so, the bad temper will definitely not be changed.

"And," Roger asked, "you held military exercises here before the conflict broke out?"

This is also a question.

You must know that at that time, there was no conflict with the "Liberator Tribal Alliance", and the situation should be the same as usual, how did Daoud's troops come here to conduct military exercises?

You know, after all, this is the territory of the government army, is the government army allowed?

But the bearded man can't explain this, or because of the low rank. Moreover, that exercise was not carried out by their regiment, but by another regiment of the same division.

This point is still a bit strange, and Zhao Xuanji already has some preliminary guesses in his heart. I can't say it must be, but it's very likely. Because he knew very well the urine nature of these warlords, there was not a good thing, and there was not a single fuel-efficient lamp.

As for the fact that the Dragon's Tooth investigation said that the government army had set up a position to contain most of Daoud's troops, it now seems that it is basically a false idea. Perhaps the government army at that time was so sworn in order to give an explanation to the Chinese side. In fact, the government army now has very good relations with Daoud's Fifth Army, and the cooperative relations are good.

This was not good news for Zhao Xuanji, because if this was the case, it would mean that Daoud could send more troops to the mountainous area of the Peacock King City at any time.

……

The car drove all the way forward, finally ran through the public area, and immediately turned around and sped north. At this time, the bearded regiment was still trying to find a way to surround and intercept it, but it was difficult to catch up.

In fact, not only his regiment, but even his superiors were in a hurry. Damn, seven or eight hundred armed soldiers watched their regiment commander being kidnapped by four people, and also hijacked a military vehicle by the way, once the news spread, the face of the entire Fifth Army was lost.

When Major General Massoud, the commander of the 53rd Division, heard about this, he was so angry that he dropped his teacup. Shame, shame.

He ordered the follow-up troops of the 533rd Regiment to send a company of troops, and their regimental commander had to be rescued anyway. Of course, after being rescued, it will be punished. Bastard thing, in order to see a woman's face, he actually poked out such a big basket, and he had to be dealt with by military law.

As for the original military mission, of course, it must be carried out. Massoud asked the deputy regimental commander who led the team at the front to take over the post of bearded colonel and immediately began to attack. Otherwise, it will anger General Daoud, and everyone will have no good fruit to eat.
