Chapter 337: Large-scale counteroffensive

Hearing that Su Yi was preparing to launch a counteroffensive against the northwest and northeast regions at the same time, the generals of the Yueyang Front Army in the conference room looked at each other, and no one raised any objections.

At present, the total strength of the Yueyang Front Army exceeds 8 million, not counting the 20 million reserve officers and soldiers who are undergoing training, and the independent air force division under the Yueyang Front Army already has more than 2,000 Xiuniao fighters and more than 1,000 Goshawk dive bombers, plus five tank regiments directly under the Yueyang Front Army Headquarters, the Yueyang Front Army is completely capable of launching a counteroffensive against the Ice Lion State army entrenched in the northwest and northeast regions at the same time.

Moreover, these generals of the Yueyang Front Army have blind worship of Su Yi, at this time, even if Su Yi says that he will fight all the way to the Ice Lion City, the capital of the Ice Lion Country, presumably these generals of the Yueyang Front Army will also obey Su Yi's words, and these generals still have the confidence to lead the troops and really fight all the way to the Ice Lion City, the capital of the Ice Lion Country.

Sun Guodong, deputy commander of the Yueyang Front, immediately said: "I support the commander's suggestion, now our Yueyang Front Army is the time when the troops are strong, and the Ice Lion Country army has just lost millions of troops on the battlefield in the southwest region, once our Yueyang Front Army launches a comprehensive counterattack to the northwest and northeast regions, with the current strength of the Ice Lion Army in the northwest and northeast regions, it will be impossible to stop it, and now the Ice Lion Country can not send too many additional troops to the northwest and northeast regions." ”

Su Yi immediately looked around at the generals in the conference room, "Do you have any other opinions on this?" ”

"We all listen to the commander!"

"Just do what the commander has planned! With the current strength of our Yueyang Front, it is enough to take down the northwest region and the northeast region! ”

"Commander, just give the order!"

Hearing that the generals of the Yueyang Front Army in the conference room all agreed with his plan, Su Yi nodded slightly and said: "Today is the thirtieth of February, and I am going to launch a full-front counteroffensive against the Ice Lion Army in the northwest and northeast regions on the fifth day of next month, with the provisional First Army, the provisional Fourth Army and the provisional Seventh Army responsible for attacking the northwest region, and the provisional Second Army, the provisional Sixth Army, the provisional Eighth Army and the provisional Eleventh Army responsible for attacking the northeast region, and the provisional Tenth Army and the Provisional Twelfth Army will serve as the general reserve for this campaign. ”

After a pause, Su Yi continued: "For the troops attacking the northwest region, Zhou Jianmin, commander of the provisional First Army, will serve as the front-line commander-in-chief, and for the troops attacking the northeast region, Wu Youliang, commander of the provisional Second Army, will serve as the front-line commander-in-chief, and the headquarters will each transfer two tank regiments to each of the two attack units. ”

Zhou Jianmin, the commander of the Provisional First Army, and Wu Youliang, the commander of the Provisional Second Army, stood up almost at the same time, "Yes!" Commander! ”

Sun Guodong, deputy commander of the Yueyang Front, hesitated slightly and said to Su Yi: "Commander, the attack will be launched on the fifth of next month, is it too hurried in time?" The seven provisional armies that participated in the attack, but many of them were not yet in place! ”

Su Yi said: "The reason why the counteroffensive was launched so quickly is to not give the Ice Lion Army more time to recover its strength, so that the seven temporary armies can arrive at the attack position as soon as possible, if it is really too late, as the second batch of troops to participate in the battle, the counteroffensive time on the fifth of next month will remain unchanged!" ”

After Su Yi's order was issued, the entire Yueyang Front began to prepare for the war, and a large number of troops and combat materials were transported by rail and road to some places in the adjacent northwest and northeast regions, and such a big move of the Yueyang Front was quickly detected by the intelligence system of the Ice Lion Country.

On the morning of March 2, 2539, at the Prime Minister's Mansion in Ice Lion City, Prime Minister Zahar said to the five military marshals in a deep voice: "According to reliable information obtained by the intelligence department, the Yueyang Front of the Great Qin State is gathering a large number of troops in some places near the northwest region of the Great Qin State and the northeast region of the Great Qin State, and it is likely that it will launch an attack on the northwest and northeast regions occupied by our Ice Lion State army in the near future. ”

The five marshals of the Ice Lion State military are Field Marshal Gurit, Field Marshal Kajano, Field Marshal Davide, Admiral Mochka and Air Marshal Vavili, of which Field Marshal Kajano has just returned to Ice Lion City on a plane.

Field Marshal Gurit sighed and said: "This is not good news, our Ice Lion Country's army has just suffered millions of casualties in the southwest region of the Great Qin Kingdom, if the Yueyang Front of the Great Qin State launches an attack on the northwest and northeast regions, the troops of our Ice Lion Country's army stationed in the above areas are likely to be unstoppable, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Yueyang Front Army is not the same as the other armies of the Great Qin Kingdom." ”

Although the cabinet of the Ice Lion Kingdom has decided to stick to the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State, the Ice Lion Kingdom and the Blood Wolf Kingdom have just reached an armistice agreement to divide the five southwestern provinces of the Great Qin State, and a large number of Ice Lion Army troops are still in Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province in the southwest region, and the strength of the Ice Lion Army in the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State is not much.

Prime Minister Zahar then asked, "How many troops does our Ice Lion Kingdom currently have in the five northwestern provinces and six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin Kingdom?" ”

Field Marshal Davide immediately said: "Our army is currently stationed in the five northwestern provinces of the Great Qin State, and currently has one Praetorian Tank Armored Division, ten Praetorian Mechanized Infantry Divisions and thirty-five Garrison Infantry Divisions, of which twenty-eight garrison infantry divisions are mainly human soldiers, and one Janissary Tank Armored Division, twelve Janissaries Mechanized Infantry Divisions and forty Garrison Infantry Divisions are stationed in the six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State, of which thirty garrison infantry divisions are mainly human soldiers. ”

Air Marshal Waveli followed up and said: "Our air force has more than 230 fighters and more than 140 bombers in the five northwestern provinces of the Great Qin State, and more than 250 fighters and more than 160 bombers in the six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State. ”

The words of Field Marshal Davide and Air Marshal Waveli made Prime Minister Zahar's brows wrinkle suddenly, "Some time ago, didn't the army and air force send a lot of troops and fighters to the five northwestern provinces and the six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State? Why is it that there are only more than 2 million army troops and less than 700 warplanes in the five northwestern and northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State? ”

Field Marshal Davide said with a wry smile: "For the previous big battle with the Blood Wolf Kingdom in the southwest region of Great Qin, our War Department transferred most of the garrisons in the five northwestern provinces and six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State to the battlefield in the southwest region, and now more than two million army troops in the five northwestern provinces and six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State are still withdrawn from the central region of the Great Qin State. ”

The Ice Lion Army was originally deployed in the central region to guard against the elite troops of the Yueyang Front Army under Su Yi, because they chose to retreat on their own initiative, so in the process of the Yueyang Front Army attacking Ludong Province, Song'an Province and most of Sui'an Province in the central region, these elite troops of the Ice Lion Army basically retreated safely into the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State, but some of these elite troops were later transferred to the battlefield in the southwest region.

Air Marshal Vavili sighed and said: "Prime Minister, our air force has lost more than 2,400 fighters in the battlefield in the southwest region, some of which are drawn from the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom. ”

Prime Minister Zahar's brows furrowed a little tighter, "Everyone should know the combat effectiveness of the Yueyang Front of the Great Qin State, and also know the importance of the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State to our Ice Lion Country, with the current strength of the army and air force in the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State, it will be a very difficult thing to block the attack of the Yueyang Front, let's talk about it, how should we increase our troops in the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State next?" ”

Field Marshal Gurit shook his head and said: "Prime Minister, it is impossible to send more troops to the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State for the time being, the five newly formed Janissary Mechanized Infantry Divisions and twenty garrison infantry divisions in the country are still being reorganized, and it will take at least a month to pull on the battlefield, so we can only draw troops from Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province in the southwest region of the Great Qin State to reinforce the five northwestern provinces and the six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State." ”

At this time, Field Marshal Kajano, who had just returned to Ice Lion City from the southwest region of the Great Qin Kingdom, said in a deep voice: "Our Army of the Ice Lion Kingdom has a total of two Praetorian Tank Armored Divisions, fifty-five Janissary Mechanized Infantry Divisions and one hundred and ninety garrison infantry divisions in Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province in the southwest region of the Great Qin Kingdom, but many of these troops have suffered heavy losses in the battle with the army of the Blood Wolf Country, and they have not yet been replenished, plus we need a large number of troops to receive the areas of Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province that are temporarily controlled by the army of the Blood Wolf Country, Therefore, the army units that can reinforce the five northwestern provinces and the six northeastern provinces of the Great Qin State cannot be transferred too much, after all, we still have to guard against the army of the Blood Wolf State in the southwest region to tear up the armistice treaty. ”

Originally, the Ice Lion Army only occupied a part of Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province, but through the armistice agreement signed with the Blood Wolf Country, the Ice Lion Kingdom took Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province into its arms.

Air Marshal Waveli shrugged his shoulders and said: "The situation of our air force is even worse, unless a batch of fighters are drawn from the troops guarding against the Eastern Bear Kingdom, our air force will not be able to send many additional fighters to the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom in a short period of time." ”

Prime Minister Zahar snorted coldly and said, "Could it be that our Ice Lion Country has to give up even the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom?" ”

Field Marshal Gurit pondered for a while and said: "Prime Minister, it is impossible for our Ice Lion Kingdom to give up in the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to those domestic consortia, I see if it is possible to immediately recruit another two million recruits from the country and directly enter the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom, and then transfer a group of seriously damaged troops from Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province in the southwest region of the Great Qin Kingdom to the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State, and then use two million recruits to replenish these damaged troops." ”

After a pause, Field Marshal Gurit said: "In addition, the War Department will immediately dispatch three Praetorian Mechanized Infantry Divisions and seven Garrison Infantry Divisions in the country as soon as possible to enter the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State to support. ”

Cabinet Prime Minister Zahar's face was much better when he heard Field Marshal Gurit say this, "Those domestic consortia, the forces they represent, you also know that if the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State are taken back by the Yueyang Front Army, not only may I be the prime minister, but the life of the five marshals will not be easy." ”

Admiral Mochka suddenly spoke: "In the battle to defend the northeast region of the Great Qin Kingdom, our navy can provide some firepower support for the land forces in the coastal areas. ”

The Ice Lion Navy, ranked third in the world, has two large aircraft carriers, three medium aircraft carriers, two small aircraft carriers, ten super dreadnought battleships, ten battle cruisers, and sixteen dreadnought battleships.

Field Marshal Gurit nodded and said, "With the support of the navy, at least in the coastal areas of the northeast of the Great Qin Kingdom, our army will be much easier." ”

Prime Minister Zahar then said aloud: "In any case, the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom cannot be lost, otherwise even Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province, which our Ice Lion Kingdom paid for the lives of millions of soldiers, will probably not be able to be saved." ”

Although the military of the Ice Lion State made a large-scale reinforcement plan in order to keep the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin State, the Yueyang Front under Su Yi moved too fast, and on the morning of March 5, 2539, the Yueyang Front suddenly launched a large-scale counteroffensive against the Ice Lion Army in the northwest and northeast regions.

At this time, the additional troops and recruits sent by the War Department of the Ice Lion Kingdom to the northwest and northeast regions of the Great Qin Kingdom had not yet entered the northwest and northeast regions.

With air superiority, the speed of the Yueyang Front's advance can be described as very fast, and the Ice Lion Army units that resisted the Yueyang Front Army could hardly stop the Yueyang Front's attack, especially in the face of the Yueyang Front's tank and armored forces, it was even more imminently defeated.

This situation has not been greatly improved after a large number of Army Units of the Ice Lion Kingdom in Yongkang Province and Qiannan Province entered the northwest region of the Great Qin State, and some army units in the Ice Lion Kingdom entered the northeast region of the Great Qin State, and the Yueyang Front Army was still on the offensive, while the Ice Lion Army in the Northwest and Northeast regions continued to retreat, and a large area of occupied territory was taken by the Yueyang Front Army.
