Chapter 443: If you don't advance, you will retreat

"Report to the commander-in-chief, in the first round of shooting, our left flank armored and tank units evaded in time, and only lost two infantry combat vehicles and twelve combat personnel."

"At the same time, our antiaircraft artillery air defense company successfully shot down two blue helicopter gunships, accounting for more than 10% of its total number of sorties."

"The blue side has suffered a setback in its air strikes, has now abandoned the second round of attacks, and is on its way back to ......"

In the red command cabin, listening to the report of one of the second lieutenants under him, Su Qiyue nodded with satisfaction.

It's different from when I was in the 702nd regiment before.

Today's digital composite battalions, although far inferior to the old units in terms of combat numbers.

However, in terms of comprehensive combat capability, the composite battalion is much better than the 702nd regiment.

In particular, in the areas of reconnaissance means, joint combat capabilities of various arms of the armed forces, and information-based processing capabilities, the digital composite battalion has surpassed more than one step ahead.

Of course, the idea of a synthetic battalion was originally put forward and established to meet the needs of informationized warfare.

With the deployment of a large number of new weapons and equipment, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the composite battalion is obvious.

In some specialized areas, it is even stronger than several main regiments in the division.

At present, the synthetic battalion has made a good start in terms of prevention and control performance, which is expected.

However, although this is the first contact with the blue side, the own side has a certain upper hand.

But in Su Qiyue's opinion, there are still some regrets.

After all, their ground forces still suffered some losses.

If you can get the support of helicopter gunships, you only need to temporarily form a combat group to join, and you can seize the opportunity to pursue the blue side.

Noticing the slightly melancholy look on the battalion commander's face, Chief Staff Officer Chang Hongliang seemed to have guessed something.

He smiled and said, "Battalion commander, should we inform Battalion Commander Gao and ask him to dispatch the drones of the division reconnaissance battalion to reconnoitre?" ”

Chang Hongliang's meaning, of course Su Qiyue understood.

On the side of the digital synthetic battalion, although the armed reconnaissance platoon is also equipped with a drone team, in terms of elite, it is definitely incomparable with the division reconnaissance battalion.

At this time, after the first round of contact, the blue side suffered a small loss.

If you send drones to reconnoiter the enemy's situation now, the chances of success are very high.

But the problem is that once the drone is dispatched, it means that the division reconnaissance battalion that is charging forward needs to have a buffer.

They need to wait for the enemy's feedback before making the next battle plan.

But in Su Qiyue's opinion, the speed is slow.

According to his original plan, the "lightning attack" was the key task of his joint force in the first phase.

Not only 621, but also 544, these two highlands must break through one as soon as possible.

This is not that Su Qiyue is seeking stability, but wants to be invincible first.

In fact, when the two highlands are not far away and are horns of each other, only by taking one of them can we have the capital to form a strategic stalemate with the other side.

To put it bluntly, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

Once you can't take a high ground in the first stage, the situation in the next two days will gradually be unfavorable to your side.

You know, air superiority is firmly in the hands of the special operations team.

With such considerations, Su Qiyue waved his hand lightly and said, "We have roughly figured out the combat ideas of the blue side. ”

"After this round of air strikes failed at the beginning of the war, the next step was basically to send ground troops to harass and obstruct."

"Now that we've calculated this, there's no need for us to follow their pace and follow their pace."

After pondering for a moment, Su Qiyue raised his head and ordered: "Pass the order, the left flank armored troops will complete the assembly within ten minutes and start to accelerate the charge." ”

"Yes!"

Chang Hongliang responded, and hurriedly went over to give Su Qiyue's order.

After watching the real-time battle situation with his hands behind his back for a while, Su Qiyue followed and ordered the communication platoon: "Remind Battalion Commander Gao, slow down five kilometers outside the 544 Heights in front, spread out a formation, and wait for the support of the main armored force." ”

"Yes!"

The distance of five kilometers is enough to deter the ground forces of the blue side.

After all, even special operations personnel need a certain amount of strategic depth to rush down from the high ground.

Without the cover of sufficient cover, it was difficult for them to curry favor in the face of the armored fire of the divisional reconnaissance battalion.

After calculating the time, it has only been an hour and a half since the blue side dispatched its air forces.

In such a short period of time, Gao Cheng had already broken through to about five kilometers in front of the enemy's formation.

Such a speed of breakthrough is absolutely unimaginable to the blue commander.

In the face of such a situation, it is to no avail that they want to send a special operations team to the high ground to obstruct it.

Thinking about this, Su Qiyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Speaking of which, there are still some adventures in this combat idea designed by myself.

If the special operations brigade had not been equipped with it, but had sent out ground troops at the same time as dispatching air forces to strike, it would not have been so easy for them to march in high cities.

Of course, if this is the case, Su Qiyue also has other ways to deal with it.

But if you want to quickly gain an advantage on the battlefield, it is unlikely.

But now, even if the blue side senses something, it is powerless to stop it.

……

Army Group C, General Command of the Exercises.

Looking at the five companies of the division reconnaissance battalion that were quickly lined up on the big screen, Liu Heng, deputy chief of staff of the military region, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Red's unconventional march seems to have paid off!"

"Yes, Deputy Chief of Staff!"

Deng Jiahua, director of the Operations Department of the Military Region, said with emotion, "Su Qiyue's adventure is really bold enough. ”

"In the face of the air attack by the blue side with more than a dozen helicopter gunships, he ignored it and continued to let the vanguard of the divisional reconnaissance battalion charge quickly."

"This courage alone makes people have to admire!"

Listening to Minister Deng's exclamation, Liang Feng, chief of staff of the group army, smiled and said: "There is no doubt about Comrade July's command level. ”

"The most important thing is that he himself has served in the special operations brigade for a long time and knows very well how special operations are conducted."

"Perhaps, he saw through the target of the first round of air strikes of the special operations team, and it could not be the leading division reconnaissance battalion, so he made such a bold response......

Listening to Chief of Staff Liang's narration, Army Commander Gao Aiguo sighed and said, "Count him right this time." ”

"However, even if he pushes Gao Cheng's division and reconnaissance battalion to the front, he will at most prevent the surprise attack of the Red Ground Forces."

"It is impossible to take the two high ground of the blue side in one fell swoop with this advantage in front of you."

After Gao Aiguo finished speaking, Liu Heng was suddenly happy: "What, Lao Gao, are you so unconfident in Gao Cheng?" ”

was teased by the deputy chief of staff, Gao Aiguo was blushing.

He coughed and said, "It's not that I don't have confidence in Gao Cheng, it's that I don't have confidence in the firepower of the division and reconnaissance battalion." ”

"Although 1 half-track armored vehicle reconnaissance company and 2 wheeled armored vehicle reconnaissance companies of the T Divisional Reconnaissance Battalion have the ability to go to high ground."

"But there is a premise for this high ground, that is, your own firepower cover, you must be able to keep up."

Commander Gao pointed to the real-time picture on the screen, and said solemnly: "At this time, the five companies in front of the divisional reconnaissance battalion are all armored reconnaissance companies. There were neither anti-tank artillery platoons nor infantry support fire detachments. ”

"With the blue side already on the defensive, with their existing armored fire support, there is no way to shake any of the blue side's high ground."

After listening to Gao Aiguo's analysis, several bigwigs in the conference room looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Liu Heng obviously also believed in Gao Aiguo's judgment, he sighed in relief, and turned his gaze to the railway, which had not spoken.

"Minister Tie, you are an expert in special operations. If you were the Blue Commander at this time, how would you deal with the situation in front of you? ”

The railway pondered for a moment before he spoke: "From my personal point of view, there have been no obvious mistakes in the blue side's combat strategy so far. ”

"At the beginning of the establishment of the digital synthesis camp, one of the main strengthening points is its prevention and control capabilities. The air strike of the special operations group was not fully successful, which was expected......"

Of course, everyone will not have any doubts about the judgment of the commander of the special operations brigade of the railway.

Liang Feng smiled and nodded, "Yes, I also agree with Brigade Commander Tie. ”

"Gu Zhifei's first dispatch of air troops, in fact, is mainly tentative."

The railroad snorted, and then said, "Yes, Chief of Staff Liang. Judging from the current situation, Captain Gu just didn't expect the Red Side's forced march to be so aggressive. ”

"In terms of coping, he still has a lot of options."

"Oh? For example? When Liu Heng heard this, he immediately asked.

"For example, the special operations team can hold its troops for the first time. Then choose a suitable time to make a tentative attack on Red's current formation. ”

Listening to the analysis of the railway, Deng Jiahua suddenly realized.

"What does Minister Tie mean is that the blue side can stay up until dark, and then take advantage of the night to use the powerful individual combat ability of the special operators to try to cut the vanguard of the red side?"

The railroad nodded in response, and then said, "That's right! ”

"It's less than three hours until dark. Because all of them have night vision equipment, once night falls, the combat effectiveness of special operators will greatly exceed that of the red side. ”

"When the time comes, the blue side only needs to send a few combat teams to harass them, and it may be miraculous."

After the railway finished speaking, Commander Gao and Liang Feng glanced at each other, both of them a little relieved.

Indeed, what the railway said is also what the two of them are thinking at the moment.

As a unit that Group C Army has focused on cultivating in the past two years.

The special operations brigade, both in terms of personnel and equipment, is the first priority level in the entire group army.

As for the digital synthesis battalion, although it has also received some resources from the army and the T division after its establishment, it is still a short time after all.

The two chiefs have reason to believe that there is still hope for the special operations brigade to slowly pull back after the stalemate in the situation.
