The 139th Division of the Wehrmacht, which was subordinate to the Red Army, is now in a very critical situation!

The 498th Regiment was almost completely annihilated, and the struggling 499th Regiment was now suppressed and beaten by one and a half regiments of the 101st Airborne Division and one and a regiment of the 109th Airborne Division that concentrated their forces, and the surrounding positions had all been lost, although the 499th Regiment had withdrawn a lot of people, but together with the civilian staff of the regimental headquarters, the strength that could fight was less than one battalion, and the opponent was at least 8 battalions.

If it weren't for the unified use of the Blue Army's airborne troops in the concentration of Longsi armored vehicles, the 499 position that the 481 regiment had struggled to hold would have been razed with a single charge.

The situation of the 497th Regiment is better now, but in the face of an enemy supported by at least 20 Dragon Four vehicles, it is not bad that they can stabilize the battle line. The situation at the division headquarters is not very good, there are already sporadic Blue Army airborne troops haunting around the division headquarters, and even being touched by Lante less than 300 meters away from the division headquarters, although they were repulsed, this already shows that the Blue Army's offensive is about to begin.

"Division, the 287th Brigade, which is closest to us, will take at least three hours to arrive!" The staff officer reported the situation: "But the reconnaissance company reported that the blue airborne troops seem to be concentrating armored vehicles, and there is a possibility of assaulting the division headquarters." ”

The 287 Brigade is a chariot brigade, with a chariot regiment and an infantry regiment under its jurisdiction, and it is the only reinforcement that Shi Lianke, the commander of the 139th Division, can count on, as for other reinforcements, there are at least five hours away, and when they come, the daylily is really cold!

Although the army aviation had sent two battalions of infantry one after another, they were all filled by him to the most critical 499 regiment - hoping that the 499 regiment could carry it until three hours later, but Shi Lianke understood that it was just an extravagant hope.

"Master! The assault battalion contacted the division headquarters and reported that it was already less than twenty kilometers away from the division headquarters! And reported that a battalion of the 101st Division was defeated along the way, and 15 vehicles of the Dragon Four were destroyed! The communications soldier suddenly ran over excitedly to report.

"Assault battalion?" Major General Shi Lianke was stunned, if he remembered correctly, the news sent by the assault battalion not long ago asking to share the battle situation was ignored by him gorgeously!

"Where is the assault battalion?"

The staff officer hurriedly asked the signal officer, and when he got the answer, he immediately stepped forward and marked the location of the assault battalion on the sand table.

"Master, they're coming straight to our division!" After the chief of staff on the side saw the sand table, he thought of the previous report of the assault battalion before asking to share the battle situation, and said affirmatively.

The current battle situation is that the 139th Division is holding the back road of the 49th Division of the 17th Group Army and the group army headquarters of the Yulin Army, and the 49th Division and the military headquarters of the Yulin Army are facing the pressure of the Blue Army, once the position held by the 139th Division is occupied by the Airborne Troops, the 49th Division facing the Blue Army will fall into the embarrassment of being flanked before and after, even if the 49th Division is known as the first division in the Western Theater, facing at least one and a half airborne divisions in the back**, the onslaught in front of the two Blue Army Divisions can be imagined.

Once the 49th Division was finished, the entire right flank had a chain reaction, and the outcome of the rout of the whole line could be imagined.

Although the importance of the 139th Division's headquarters is important, in the heart of Major General Shi Lianke, the 499th Regiment is the most important, even if the division headquarters is completely annihilated, even if the directly subordinate artillery regiments and other units are completely annihilated, as long as the 481 position is kept, the chrysanthemum of the 49th Division will be safe!

"Immediately let them rush to the 481 position! Even if it is to add water, you must buy time for the 499 regiment as much as possible! Shi Lianke regretted in his heart why he didn't share the battle situation in the first place, if he had shared the war situation before, the assault battalion would not have been able to come straight to the division headquarters, which wasted at least half an hour!

The signal soldier received the order and planned to reply immediately, but was stopped by Major General Shi Lianke again: "Contact the assault battalion, I will tell them directly!" ”

He was worried that his previous attitude would displease the assault battalion and lead to slackness.

How many cents is the dignity of a major general worth for victory? Not to mention that it is ordered in person, even if it is kneeling and begging, the major general can also pull down his face.

……

"I think it's better for you to hang a military rank, why don't you borrow your major rank first?" Lieutenant Colonel Qian Yaming from the observation group of the Military Affairs Institute joked that he just followed Ye Xiao as a spectator all the way, and now this unit is about to converge with the 139th Division.

This is also the experimental nature of the assault battalion, or because Ye Xiao formed it with one hand and formulated the training outline and tactical guiding ideology with the other, otherwise it would be a fantasy to command almost a battalion of troops with the identity of removing the rank.

"It's an outlier anyway, so be it!" Ye Xiao didn't care, the rank of the assault battalion was generally low, probably because the war zone didn't stuff in the high-ranking bigwigs in order to take care of them, otherwise it would have to be chaotic.

"Sir! 139th Division Headquarters Communication! Requests are answered by the commander! The signal soldier said to Ye Xiao, the rank of the signal soldier is sergeant, and he has more qualifications than Ye Xiao, but in the assault battalion, obviously no one dares to compare the qualifications with this one-year soldier who is actually a training staff officer.

Ye Xiao took the headset and communication microphone and said, "I am Ye Xiao, the training staff officer of the assault battalion. ”

A strong male voice came from the earphones: "I am Shi Lianke, the major general of the 139th Division of the National Defense Army!" I ask for a direct conversation with your commander! ”

Request!

Obviously, the general on the other side misunderstood, he thought that he had been "retaliated against" against, and deliberately sent a training staff officer to answer the call, and the general who thought he deserved it did not dare to show off the prestige of the general, and expressed himself with the word "request" after indicating his identity.

Exercises are war! There is nothing more important for a general than to achieve victory, and if there is, it is to achieve many, many victories, and for the sake of victory, what is the bottom three?

Lieutenant Colonel Qian Yaming on the side heard the tone of the general in the headphones, and the corners of his mouth twitched, this matter made trouble.

Ye Xiao was also embarrassed, this was a unique camp situation of the assault battalion, but it must be difficult for outsiders to understand, he tried his best to say in a calm voice: "Report to the general, as a training staff officer Ye Xiao, temporarily serve as the commander of the front team, and the chief officer is in the second and third echelon!" ”

After a pause, Major General Shi Lianke over there said: "Captain Ye Xiao (according to the command scale of the two companies, the general naturally thinks that Ye Xiao's military rank should be captain), please support the 481 position in Area 4 at all costs!" Once the 481 position is lost, the consequences are unimaginable! Please be sure to support us! I'll send you a battle situation to share later! ”

Ye Xiao did not hesitate: "Yes!" Checkmate! Support the 481 position at all costs! ”

"Thank you!"

After ending the call, Ye Xiao immediately ordered: "Attention all departments!" Change the form route! Repeat! Change the form route! Target, Area 4, Position 481! The reconnaissance platoon and the special platoon have changed their exploration routes, so pay attention to the surrounding situation! ”

The three airborne divisions landed on a front of nearly 50 kilometers, and there were quite a few scattered airborne troops who did not return to the team, not to mention that there were also Lante mixed in with cold guns and mines to make trouble, so as the special platoon and reconnaissance platoon of the vanguard, the task was particularly heavy.

However, whether it is a special platoon or a reconnaissance platoon, the old guys are all old birds with dragon blades, and they enjoy this kind of task more, and in the face of Ye Xiao's sudden change of route, they execute it very well.

Not long after notifying the battalion headquarters, the communication soldiers summarized the battle situation and handed it to Ye Xiao.

"No wonder the commander of the 139th Division is in such a hurry...... The 481 position is the most critical nail in the entire battle situation, even if the 139th Division is divided, as long as the 481 is in hand, the airborne troops will not be able to attack the 49th Division of Yulin with all their might! ”

After seeing the latest battle situation, Ye Xiao instantly understood the importance of the 481 position, no wonder the commander of the 139th Division was so anxious!

"Report the battle situation to the battalion headquarters, and also inform the 139th Division headquarters: Our department has rushed to the 481 position and is expected to arrive within 80 minutes!"

After silently calculating the distance, Ye Xiao made a time judgment.

Although it was less than 20 kilometers from position 481, it was impossible for the infantry and mobile companies to go straight at top speed, and with the blocking of the Blue Airborne troops, 80 minutes was not a long time.

For Ye Xiao's plan of time, Lieutenant Colonel Qian Yaming on the side also nodded secretly, 80 minutes is not much different from his estimated time, but with less than 400 people in two companies of mobile company and infantry company, can they really rush to the battlefield in 80 minutes under the resistance of the 101st Airborne Division?

The 101st Airborne Division, the first airborne division of the Empire, has been established for more than 400 years, with outstanding results and remarkable achievements.
