Chapter 1 Leave of absence
[[[CP|W:847|H:448|A:L|U:http://file2.biquge.info/chapters/20147/5/3072028635401832210137286244227.jpg
The sound of military boots and the sonorous clash with the earth resounded across the land, and teams of the regular army of Amestolis were brought in from all over the country and gathered in the region of Ishbal.
Beyond the mountains and deserts, oases and barren lands gather here.
On the hill, on the high ground south of the city, a group of regular troops of the Amestories Army, mixed with a large number of Oriental appearances, were resting.
The troops that had been evacuated from the hill were the hunting regiments under the command of Estes of Estes.
In the past few months, this unit has achieved a proud war in the anti-guerrilla warfare and anti-asymmetry operations outside the city of Ishbar, and this well-trained unit has annihilated the Ishbal rebels in a few months, which exceeded their total strength by several times.
They destroyed hundreds of hidden hiding points and advance bases set up by the Ishbars around the city, and the casualties of this force were surprisingly low.
This is due to rigorous training in peacetime, correct ways of fighting, and a good understanding of the enemy.
"A detachment of the Ishbals outside the city consisted of about eighty men, and each time they went out of the city with three days' rations and supplies, and they had to return to the city every three days. Because it is a desert area, the water source is their hard wound, and it is best to attack them on the way back when they are running out of water and preparing to retreat. ”
As well as an excellent commander.
"I wonder what you think about what you just said?"
At this time, Estes was on the sand table to the commanders of other friendly and neighboring forces gathered in his headquarters, introducing the combat experience of his troops.
It was Estes' habit to communicate and share the information of the ground army that he had been exposed and detected in the city in the past few months with the commander of the unit who had just been transferred from the rear.
As the most successful unit in the Ishbal region after the reinforcement, Estes's hunting regiment quickly rose to fame along with her, a hero who went deep into the tiger's den to investigate a large number of important enemies.
For months, the chasseurs under Estes were able to win a surprise victory because of the accurate information that Estes regularly brought out from the city, and the Ishbal rebels outside the city lost their armor and suffered heavy losses.
For months, the range of activities of the Ishbal rebels was suppressed back around the city by the elusive hunting regiments, armed with the idea of mobile special operations. With the destruction of several important points of external communication by the Chasseurs, Ishbal's route to the rest of the East for the rebellion was completely cut off.
The Ishbari rebels outside of Ishbar, deprived of the support of their base camp, began to decline rapidly.
The severance of communication with their own people caused the rebels in the field to lose confidence and began to withdraw back, and naturally, the various units of the Chasseur Regiment blocked the key area to deal a devastating blow to the Ishbal rebels who were preparing to withdraw from the city to the city.
Over the course of several months, as the various localities continued to tighten the bomb pressure policy and cut off the delivery points and military stations. began to be visibly suppressed.
The activities of the Ishbal rebels were curbed with the annihilation and tragic deaths of dozens of death detachments outside the city in succession.
With the depletion of troops, the old and weak began to be incorporated into the army, which lost the previous flexible and mobile combat capability, and the final result was that the number of the Ishubar rebels was finally maintained, while the mobile combat ability and suzhì decreased.
However, the Chasseur and other friendly forces that were still active outside the city grew rapidly in the battle against the Ishbals, especially the Chasseurs.
Because most of the soldiers in the regiment were born Orion and Eastern warriors who were good at fighting in the north, they had a very thorough understanding of the thinking that Estes had been emphasizing with them for two years.
Take it by surprise with a quick fight. The style of fighting without a trace has made the Ishbal rebels suffer.
Now, after several months of clearing operations on the outskirts of the city, the rebels have basically been suppressed back into the city by the regular army.
Now the encirclement of the city of Ishbal by the regular army has been formed. The city's access to the perimeter has been blocked.
More and more Amestorius troops were mobilized outside the city.
According to the current trend, it will not be long before enough troops will be mobilized outside the city to crush one qiē, and the deadline for a general attack is imminent.
The deadline for the regular army to attack the city was getting closer.
"What are so many commanders doing together?"
Just when a group of regimental commanders and captains were expressing their opinions on how to improve the combat effectiveness and combat results of their troops, the president came with a few adjutants.
"Salute!"
The military rays surrounding the sand table saw that it was the president coming, and they all stood in the trenches and saluted the president.
Because it is a militaristic dictatorship, it is normal for the president to be the commander of the military and salute the commander.
"What are you talking about? Tell me about it. ”
Looking at the simulated sand table of the city block in the Ishbal area of the large-scale city placed in the headquarters of the Chasseur Corps.
The Grand President nodded in satisfaction
I can't help but recall what happened when my subordinates reported on the results of front-line operations a few days ago
"I heard that the front-line troops recently compiled the information obtained from the reconnaissance in the city into a detailed manual for attacking the city. Which unit did it? ”
"Report to Your Excellency! It's Colonel Estes' hunting regiment! ”
Before Estes could report, another colonel had already sung the praises of Estes
"Colonel Estes, I did a good job last time I went to Ishbal City to reconnoiter the enemy."
It was rare to receive praise from his father, and Estes was very excited.
"Thank you for your praise, my subordinates will continue to work hard!"
"Effort is a must, and it is necessary to redouble it, and the real battle is yet to come."
Then he stared at Estes with stern eyes, as if he was dissatisfied with her
"Are you confident that you will continue to achieve results in future battles?!"
Somehow, all the officers present felt a kind of pressure from the president, and this pressure and sternness were completely exerted on Esdes by the president.
"My subordinates will do their best to definitely live up to the expectations of the president."
"It's a must to do your best, because the next step is crucial! There is no room for mistakes! ”
After saying that, the president turned on a tiger face and stopped paying attention to Estes.
'Could it be that Colonel Estes has offended the president in some way'
Many of the officers present thought so.
But how did they know this was how Estes interacted with her father? The more you pay attention to it, the more strict it is. This is Bradley-style family care.
Outsiders won't understand.
"That...... Your Excellency, President! ”
I patronized it just now, interacted with my father, and forgot that I still have an agreement that I haven't completed.
"What else? Colonel Estes? ”
Enough has been said to Estes in public today, and the president is not going to talk any more nonsense
"I want to take a few days off."
"Reason."
"A promise."
"Well, give you a week's leave to hand over the work and troops to the deputy, and your troops will have no combat mission for a week. It's Sunday and you have to be back by next Monday. ”
"Your Excellency President Xie!"
That's it, go and fulfill the agreement between yourself and Dr. Sarah Rockbell.
