Chapter 920: Welcome Gift

At ten o'clock in the evening, the headquarters of the 2nd Division of the Eastern Theater of Operations.

There was a jubilant atmosphere in the headquarters, the division-level cadres were all gathered together, and from time to time staff officers ran in to report the situation, and the sand table was full of red pennants.

Zao Wou-Ki said jokingly: "Commander Sham, your troops are fighting well." ”

"Where, thanks to this blitzkrieg tactic designated by the president, the troops pounced on it and ran away with a bite, so many troops added up, enough for the enemy to suffer, judging from the information that has been reflected so far, at least 1,000 enemies have been annihilated, which is much more than the enemy killed in a large-scale positional battle a few days ago, and it adds up to a lot, what a good tactic." Sham sighed, and the others nodded in agreement.

"I expect to destroy about 1,500 enemies this time, there is a question that you have thought about, the enemy has suffered a big loss, and he will definitely retaliate frantically, what should we do next?" Zao Wou-Ki asked with a smile.

"At a glance, we know that the president has a plan, and we will resolutely implement it." Sham laughed.

"This kind of dependence is not good, forget it this time, pay attention next time." Zhao Wou-Ki smiled, and immediately said: "According to my understanding of the enemy, this time I have suffered such a big loss, I will definitely not give up, I should attack our division headquarters from the front, pass on my order, the troops will take the battalion and company as a unit to find opportunities to rest, wait for the order to return to the building, carefully beware of the enemy's counterattack, the division headquarters immediately withdraw, let go of the main road for the enemy to fight, the enemy is only about seven or eight thousand people, nearly a thousand kilometers along the road, that point of strength is not enough at all, as long as they dare to attack, they will show flaws, where to go, hum." ”

More than 1,000 kilometers, seven or eight thousand troops simply cannot be strong, if they drive straight in, logistics is the problem, and there are also problems such as the lack of concentration of firepower after the contingent is elongated.

Everyone is not stupid, and immediately thought of the benefits of doing this, Sham said excitedly: "Our troops are lurking in the rear of the enemy in pieces, as long as they dare to attack, they will show flaws, and when the time comes, the troops will look for opportunities to attack, and they will suffer, hehe." ”

"In addition, after the enemy's ranks are elongated, logistics is a big problem, pass on my order, let the surrounding people collect the grain, so as not to be robbed by the enemy, whoever dares to fund the enemy's food, will be punished for treason." Zao Wou-Ki shouted.

"Yes." Everyone shouted.

One by one, orders were conveyed from the division headquarters, and Zao Wou-ki's sharp eyes stared at the sand table for a while, and suddenly pointed to a position and said: "Okay, we should also retreat, the new division headquarters will be arranged three hundred kilometers from the rear, that is, this, however, before leaving, a large amount of explosives will be planted here, and the enemy will finally hit here, so we have to give a welcome gift, right?" ”

"Yes, let my guard battalion take care of this welcome gift." Sham said murderously.

A major general looked coldly at his subordinates, and was particularly upset when he thought of the battle report he had just received, and was actually attacked dozens of times overnight, more than 1,600 officers and soldiers were killed in battle, and the losses of materials were even more numerous, and the already small weapons and ammunition were even more tense, and thinking of the reproaches of more than 1,600 soldiers' families, the major general did not know how to report the battle situation at all.

"Stop arguing." The major general shouted distraughtly, and the command fell silent.

"Look at what you guys are like? If we quarrel with the enemy and run away, what face will we face to the people who have given their children to us? As we all know, there are only two ways left for us, one is to be stationed and waiting for reinforcements, but in this way, our division will become the first passive and cowardly unit in China, which is a shame for the soldiers; The second is to attack, but the offensive has the potential to increase casualties, and we do not have enough ammunition, especially the artillery cannot provide support, so we can only rely on the guns in our hands to fight. The division commander said calmly.

The reason is very simple, if you really don't do anything, everyone will bear the charge of shame, but the problem is that even if you do it, you may not be able to achieve any goal, and the division commander is even more depressed, this time the loss is so big, your future is over, is it to step down with the shame of cowardice or fight hard to get a good reputation?

This is actually not a difficult problem to choose, the division commander pondered for a moment and then said decisively: "Listen to my order, the troops will take the regiment as a unit, and attack on the left, center and right, the middle road will be ten kilometers ahead, and the other two roads will protect both sides, and take the enemy's division headquarters, we can give the country a decent explanation, otherwise, what awaits us, I think everyone knows very well, right?" ”

"Yes," everyone agreed. As the division commander said, if the division headquarters of Soma can be taken, the country also has a saying on face, if you lose, you will not lose the battle, so that even if 2,000 people are killed in the battle, everyone's crime can be reduced a lot, and the country can also talk about the division headquarters of Soma and give an explanation to all parties.

The order was quickly issued, the troops reacted quickly, and the three-way army advanced in an attack formation, and there was no obstruction along the way, which made everyone excited and worried, until the troops surrounded the division headquarters, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the reconnaissance troops immediately rushed in to check the situation.

After a while, the captain of the reconnaissance unit trotted over and saluted the division commander and reported: "Report to the division commander, there is no one inside." ”

The division commander had already guessed this result and was unwilling, but it was a good result to be able to successfully win the division headquarters, so he smiled and said, "Everyone, follow me in and have a look." Everyone walked into the division headquarters, and no one noticed that there was a person hiding in a corner not far away.

"Boom!" A loud bang was followed by a burst of fire rising into the sky, and the entire division headquarters was blown up, filled with gunpowder smoke, rubble flew indiscriminately, and the reconnaissance units near the division headquarters were all blown to the ground by the powerful shock wave, and no one survived.

The members of the division headquarters who had just evacuated ten miles away faintly heard the explosion, and they all stopped moving forward, looking back, their faces were full of excited smiles, and Sham ran to Zao Wou-Ki excitedly and said loudly: "President, news has just come from the guard battalion that the division headquarters has been detonated, killing one major general, two colonels, three lieutenant colonels, and several other officers and soldiers. ”

Everyone laughed excitedly when they heard this result, and everyone looked at Zao Wou-Ki with a little more reverence.

"Great, in this way, the enemy will not pursue, it is most likely to stay where it is and wait for reinforcements, tell the troops lurking in the enemy's rear, let them find opportunities to destroy the enemy's logistics points, blow up roads, destroy bridges, I will let this army without command become a lone army." Zao Wou-Ki said murderously.

"Understood." Since the "welcome gift" has been successfully sent, it means that the enemy's command system has been attacked, and it is impossible for the troops to continue the offensive.

The order was quickly conveyed, and in order to ensure safety, the division headquarters continued to move forward to the designated place, and the personnel of the command headquarters were not combat units, so there was no need to go back to participate in the encirclement and annihilation battle.

The division headquarters continued to advance, and Sham came to Zao Wou-Ki, and said: "President, it is not enough for the rear troops to clear the peripheral obstacles, the number of enemies is still too large, at least no less than 7,000 people, more than twice the number of my division, and my second division alone may not be enough to complete the encirclement and annihilation, you see?" ”

"You are wrong, your second division does not need to be encircled, but besieged, they now want weapons without weapons, they don't have anything to eat, you just need to surround them, come out and fight, if you dare to break through, let them go, you can pounce on it and bite it." Zao Wou-Ki said.

"Understood." Sham smiled and said murderously: "The president can rest assured that he will complete the task." "Under such good conditions, if this group of enemies is still let go, then Sham himself will be embarrassed.

"Remember, arrange for journalists from all over the world to participate, and if the enemy is vicious in stealing the food of the people in the vicinity, report it, and I will discredit them, understand?" Zao Wou-Ki admonished.

"Understood, in this way, it is enough for them." Sham smiled reassuringly, this last problem has been solved, what else is there to worry about?

┅┅。

In less than an hour, the news flew to all corners of the world as if it had grown wings, and the reactions of all parties were mixed, and the president of country A received the news as soon as possible, and the whole person was stunned, he never expected that the troops would suffer such heavy losses, and hurriedly found the secretary of state and security advisers and other relevant people to hold an emergency meeting.

Ten minutes later, the relevant invitees were in place, and the president briefed him on the situation and said, "Tell me, how should the country respond next?" ”

"Your Excellency the President, our troop increase plan should be stepped up, the number should be expanded to more than 50,000, and the number should continue to increase, and the total number of troops should reach about 100,000, otherwise we will not be able to win this war, which is not in the interests of the country, and we cannot give a reasonable explanation to the voters." The Secretary of State took over the topic and said.

"In addition, I suggest that special forces be transferred up; in addition, some adjustments should also be made in the configuration of weapons, more flexible weapons should be added in order to deal with the enemy's guerrilla tactics, and in addition, an air base should be established to mobilize a large number of armed helicopters to participate in the battle, so as to deal a fatal blow to the enemy who dares to attack at any time." So said a military adviser.

"In addition, immediately arrange for planes to escort a batch of weapons and supplies airdropped to our troops, and send a commander to take command, otherwise, they will become a lone army, which is very disadvantageous, and the terror will suffer a great loss." Another military adviser reminded.

"Very well, let's do what you suggested." The president immediately agreed, glanced at the Minister of Defense, and the Minister of Defense nodded knowingly. The President continued: "I will immediately schedule a press conference, and I will talk to the people of the whole country, and the strength of the enemy is beyond our estimates, which shows the importance of counter-terrorism. ”

"Yes, in this case, the troop increase plan will be fine." The Secretary of State replied with a smile.

"There's a problem that needs to be solved." The director of the National Security Bureau took over the call and reminded, and after everyone paid attention to him, he continued: "We have suffered the loss of insufficient intelligence, otherwise the troops would not be so passive, so it is recommended to send elite agents to form a special task force for Soma to make up for this shortcoming." ”

"No problem, just make a report." The President did not hesitate to agree, and although the formation of the Soma Special Unit would require new strength and costs, it would be insignificant in relation to the war.
