Chapter 2 Annihilation Mission

"Officers and commanders, you have already received the orders I have given, right?"

In the evening of the same day, Estes and other commanders above the rank of colonel were reconvened by the president to the general headquarters to discuss the specific offensive plan of the troops.

"From tomorrow, we will launch a comprehensive operation of eradication and annihilation in the city of Ishbal, the specific plan is that each commander is responsible for annihilating a district, the whole city is divided into eleven regions, and the most experienced commanders and the most combat-effective troops will lead the rest of the friendly and neighboring troops to fight in the district, and the thirteen districts will now begin to be distributed to the theater, and no one shall have any objections."

Speaking of the combat meeting, in fact, it is just a hall of the president's words, and the resolutions of the entire council of patriarchs are finalized by the president, and ordinary officers have few opportunities to speak or ......

"Colonel Dionck, is there anything that needs to be added to my orders?"

"I didn't ...... Not at all...... Big...... Your Excellency the President. ”

Some commanders were so shocked by the president's momentum that they broke out in a cold sweat

"What about Captain Lewis? What are your thoughts on the zoning plan? ”

"There will be no problems with the plans of the great president! Subordinates resolutely support! ”

Or completely worship the orders of the great president

"What about you? Karilyenko? ”

"My subordinates dare not disagree with your opinion."

Otherwise, it's insensitive.

"Doesn't anyone think there are any mistakes and shortcomings in my plan?"

Where would anyone dare to point it out? The president just said that there are no objections, and now he asks this question only to see the approval of his subordinates for his orders, and he does not really want to hear any opinions.

Otherwise, the group of middle and high-level commanders standing in the combat conference room around the command table would not have said nothing, and the combat effectiveness of the Amestories Army was one and the same except for the Central Army.

Most of the commanders and units have had actual combat experience in years of war, and most of the officers' command ability is good.

"Your Excellency, Colonel Estes is here."

Just as the President was about to announce the end of the operational meeting, the adjutant ran over to report to the President

"Oh? Colonel Estes? Remember not asking her to come to the meeting at eight o'clock with the officers? ”

And it was already 8:20, and Estes was a full twenty minutes late.

At today's meeting, the president's face was so bad that the officers did not even dare to make a sound, and the reason was because they found that their daughter, who was never late, was actually late.

"Let her in."

The President wanted to see what reason she might give me to be late to the combat meeting

"Report! Estes, the commander of the Briguz Chasseur Regiment under the Central Army, came to report! ”

A seat of aqua blue hair, no matter where you go, looks so lifelike under a snow-white sexy military uniform and a short skirt and a big-brimmed hat.

The ever-energetic and powerful female officer forms a beautiful landscape in the all-man command headquarters.

"Why are you late?"

But this qiē is meaningless in the eyes of the president, and none of these things constitute a reason to be late for a meeting

"I'm very sorry, the reason why my subordinates are late is because of the delay in printing the city sand table and manuals, please forgive the president."

The attitude is good, as if he knows that he is wrong and bows his head slightly, but he is neither humble nor arrogant. Many officers speak to the president in a tone that is not as imposing as Estes's tone when he admits his mistake.

"It depends on what you bring with you, and whether it will be useful for the war."

Although he said so, the president still knew very well that his daughter would not do stupid things that made no sense

"Yes, bring things in."

Nodding slightly, he beckoned the soldiers outside to bring things in, which immediately caused a commotion among the officers

"This sandbox ......"

"It's so meticulous!"

"It's so similar! It's so similar! ”

"Every street and building is displayed, and the terrain and barricades are marked, how much thought has gone into this?"

The officers were amazed by the precision and meticulousness of the sand table brought by Estes, in this huge urban sand table composed of a dozen small parts, every street and building seemed to be real, and there was no abstract feeling at all, it was almost reduced in equal proportions.

"There is also a manual of urban combat experience that I and my soldiers have sorted out, as well as a map of the city of Ishbal and a map of the fortification structure for individual soldiers, because I am too anxious to have time, only twenty copies have been printed, so you can take a look at it first."

Turning to the manual, there is a map of the city of Ishbal in the form of a district, followed by a map of the internal structure of the key fortified barricades and defensive strongholds, and an introduction to hidden fire points.

This information was all the information that Estes had scavenged a little bit of when he was working in Ishbal.

Over the course of several months, it was constantly updated and revised, culminating in the book and the sandbox map.

The book not only introduces the defense of the city of Ishbal, but also introduces the characteristics of the main combat units of the Ishbal people, the characteristics of national culture, the characteristics of ideology, the combined firepower of combat units, the supply of ammunition and the current leaders, etc., for a large number of troops transferred from non-eastern regions, these knowledge and information are life-saving treasures. In order to take care of the comprehension skills of the front-line soldiers, the second volume of the book is divided into five different explanatory notes.

For the reference of the Amestolian army from the five theaters

What is given to the Eastern Army is basically a sentence, the number of the enemy has been given to you, and the rest does not need to be said by me, you all know what to do.

The troops from the north can be roughly summed up in this way: they are a group of gray wolves living in the city, and they cannot be dealt with in the same way that the dragumas are dealt with, but by the same as the hunters do with foxes and gray wolves. Flexible, maneuverable, and cooperative.

For the Western Army, the basic mountain is: similar to the infiltration and harassment operations of the small units of the ancient radar, but the organization is chaotic, and the will to fight alone is stronger and more desperate.

The basic meaning for the Southern Army is: Think about how you feel when you are clearing out the bandits, but these bandits are enough to play with their lives as soldiers before, and now they have run into the city.

And finally, to the Central Army:

Brothers of the Central Army, I've been playing with you for two years in urban warfare, and even the pig-headed ones should understand, right? Just think of the interactive game with the Bligoz Chasseur when you're in the capital, except that the Ishbals don't hit you with rubber bullets.

Estes tossed and turned for months in order to write this pamphlet, studied the characteristics of the troops of the five major military districts of the country, compiled this combat guide, she went into the city to contact the people of Ishbal to understand them, her troops achieved in a few months far more than the other troops, she had the right and the capital.

"Excellent! Very good! Colonel Estes, the results of your twenty minutes late are enormous, and your results will be very important in this battle. I will now appoint you as the commander of the 1st Annihilation Theater, and all the regiments of your neighbors will be at your disposal! ”

The accurate information brought by Estes can be predicted to play a huge role in the battle, whether it is artillery or infantry, can attack according to this accurate coordinates.

And the efficiency of the annihilation of troops can certainly be greatly accelerated. This made Bradley very satisfied.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to carry out such an order."

But to everyone's surprise, Estes actually refuted the president's order

"Why?"

But this time the president was not angry, he knew that Estes must have a reason.

He believed that Estes's own daughter would not be unpurposeful and must have a plan.

"Let me temporarily command unfamiliar troops and officers, I can't play it properly, I beg Your Excellency, either let these troops clean up the flanks for my palace, or remove these regimental commanders from their posts and let my men be the regimental commanders."

Arrogant! Absolute hubris!

The officers in the command were shocked by Estes's arrogance in front of the president.

There are very few people who dare to bargain with the president, and no one has the courage to do this except for the commanders of several major military regions, and today Estes actually dared and was so explicit.

It's just ......

"Well, all the three regiments assigned to the first sector are commanded by the officer you recommended."

But the president's answer was even more shocking, and the president really agreed.

"But ......"

After a pause, looking at the reactions of the commanders around him, the Grand President glanced at them with contempt.

Most of the officers here are obviously more concerned about how the battle results are distributed than how the battle plan is formulated, right? In particular, the positions of the three regiment commanders are even more covetous. Even if they knew that the president was here, they would express their dissatisfaction.

"Although your military achievements are outstanding, it seems that many officers here still have great doubts about whether your subordinates and command ability are qualified for the position of three regiment commanders. Is there anything you can do to quell the complaints of your colleagues? ”

The president believes that his daughter will have a way, the simplest and most direct way.

"Then look at my results! I will prove the strength of myself and my subordinates in battle! ”

The loud answer was a declaration of victory for Estes.

For his subordinates and his own strength, Estes is full of confidence.

"That's good! You can prove your strength with the results! Colonel Estes. ”

Point to the large area on the map. Remove all the borders that originally belonged to Area 13. With the central area of the Ishbal region as the core, the uniform area of thirteen fan-shaped divisions becomes eleven equal small sectors and two small sectors on top of one area, where the first zone is marked.

"The strength of you and your troops is here to prove! In the same amount of time, you need to annihilate twice the size of other areas, and you don't have national alchemists in your area, can you do that? ”

Hearing such harsh conditions from the president, the other officers immediately stopped squeaking, joking that the nickname of the Ishbal Necropolis was no joke, and that eight thousand soldiers had died in the city in a few years. Not counting the tens of thousands of wounded.

In such a city full of enemies, it is difficult to say whether the task can be completed in charge of a region with the support of a national alchemist, and it is simply impossible to fight a battle without the support of a national alchemist like Estes, who is in charge of a double area.

It seems that the president is still very fair.

This is what most officers think.

"No problem! Subordinates accept this challenge! ”

But I didn't expect Estes to really accept this mention and accept this task that seemed impossible.

"All officers above the squad leader level can be appointed freely, and if you don't complete the task, you and every squad leader will be punished extremely severely! So be it. ”

If someone said that President Bradley and Estes had something to do, the officers present now probably believed it, and the task that President gave Estes was simply an impossible task

Now it seems......

'Colonel Estes is miserable'*N

The task was quickly completed, and one of the regional heads was selected except for Estes.

And after the meeting, for Estes, the too young colonel. The other officers did nothing more to slander them.

Because at this time, except for Estes himself and President Kim Bradley, the officers all thought that Estes had taken on an impossible mission.

She will eventually be severely punished by the big president.

There is no need to be jealous of officers who are capable, but who are about to be hit.

Because there is a great president who prepares her for punishment and punishment, then there is no need to say anything.

The guy that the president is eyeing is still good? Young people~Let's wash and sleep~
