Chapter 30: Withdrawal

According to the requirements set by the exercise, the air force of the Blue Army was weaker than that of the Red Army, and at the beginning of the war, although the special forces of the Blue Army did not destroy the airfields of the Red Army, the air force that was in a weak position was never able to kill the Red Army.

This also caused the embarrassing situation of the airborne troops, after the airborne, there was always a lack of heavy firepower support - according to the drill code, the airborne troops can call for support from the air force at any time, unlike now, they can only use poor bazookas to deal with the heavy firepower of the Red Army!

Because the mechanized troops were stronger than the Red Army, the Blue Army Command deliberately formulated a plan to concentrate all efforts to break through the right flank of the Red Army, for which the Blue Army did not hesitate to weaken the middle line and the right flank, concentrated most of the mechanized troops on the left flank, and even successfully parachuted three airborne divisions through a series of tactical deceptions.

But the greatest support they can give to the airborne troops is to hold back the Red Army's air force, if it weren't for the Red Army's Red Army's inability to free up, the 139th Division would not have been beaten so badly.

Everything was going according to the plan, but the convoy of armored vehicles and infantry combat vehicles that suddenly appeared completely turned all this into a pot of porridge!

In order to deal with it, the 101st Airborne Division alone has more than 40 Dragon Four being airborne together, as long as they do not touch the tank troops, Dragon Four is invincible!

However, why did Long Si, who could completely explode all armored vehicles, turn into a pile of shit in front of this battalion?

Obviously, what 101 is best at is holding on in the Jedi, but why did the strength of 1 battalion only last less than an hour in a well-fortified blocking position?

Obviously, the fruits of victory are just around the corner, but at this time, this army is coming!

Major General Lin Lan is aggrieved! The whole 101 is aggrieved!

However, as a commander, Lin Lan had to keep his sanity and gave the order to retreat in endless anger - he actually wanted to take his subordinates and completely kill this battlefield-stirring stick.

But he understands that this is delusion, wishful thinking - in the face of the gap in weapons, or if the whole division can defeat this-stirring stick, but as the division commander, he must deal with the whole division, otherwise, he can't be rash.

……

A round of rocket coverage did not hurt the attacking Blues, and the originally set Zhuyuan was a battlefield controlled by the Blues, which could just split the attacking Blues airborne troops into two halves and create an opportunity for the 481 defenders to counterattack.

But the Blues did not hesitate to withdraw, this round of rocket coverage only achieved less than a dozen results, and by the time the convoy reached the front of the position, the Blues airborne troops had already withdrawn to the position, and even the domineering greeting was not completed.

"Very decisive commander!" Ye Xiao had to feel the decisiveness of the commander of the 101st Division, it was not the commander of this heroic unit, the decisiveness was outrageous, if it was so late, with the current firepower of the assault battalion, it was enough to make the blue army break their bones.

It's just a pity that the conditions of the exercise limited the room for 101 to play, not to mention that he met the assault battalion, an experimental force that represents the idea of future war!

"Order the special platoon and reconnaissance platoon to withdraw." Now that the Blue Army has withdrawn, there is no possibility of beheading, and there is no need for the special platoon and reconnaissance platoon to wait for an opportunity to sneak attack, so Ye Xiao issued this order.

"Sir, Colonel Qin Jian, the commander of the 499th Regiment, sent a message, on behalf of the 499th Regiment, he welcomed the arrival of our unit and invited our unit to enter the position."

After Ye Xiao signaled that he knew, he said: "Report the news to the battalion headquarters, by the way, the 139th Division headquarters is suspected to have been destroyed, please rush to the 481 as soon as possible, take over the position, and guard the rear flank of the 49th Division of the Yulin Army!" ”

Don't look at Ye Xiao with nearly three companies all the way to chop and stab the thorns or not, but the ammunition loss of the two companies is also very large, and the ordinary ammunition can also be replenished in the 481 position, but the loss of missiles and rockets can only wait for the company to be maintained - the continuous battles have caused a lot of losses to armored vehicles and infantry vehicles, and they must be replenished, otherwise the combat power of the two main battle companies will be reduced by at least forty percent.

When dozens of armored vehicles and infantry combat vehicles drove into the 481 position, the soldiers who survived the hard battles really had the illusion of being a Jedi, and when they saw the amiable reinforcements, they suddenly seemed to have lost all their strength, and they collapsed on the position one after another.

The corners of Colonel Qin Jian's mouth twitched, these rabbit cubs had to support themselves for a while, and when the friendly troops came, they all lay down like boneless snakes, didn't this affect the image of the regiment in the hearts of the friendly troops?

Seeing a lieutenant colonel and several officers getting down from a command car, Colonel Qin Jian hurriedly greeted him: "Colonel Qin Jian, Colonel of the 499th Regiment of the 139th Division of the National Defense Army, welcome friendly troops!" ”

The lieutenant colonel returned the salute: "Lieutenant Colonel Qian Yaming of the Observation Group of the Military Affairs Academy." ”

The colonel wondered, why was it under the banner of the observation group of the Military Affairs Academy? What the heck? He also wanted to know which way the gods had fished him.

This is the young man next to the lieutenant colonel who did not have a military rank saluting: "Hello sir! Training staff officer of the Red Army assault battalion...... Warrant Officer Ye Xiao was ordered to lead his troops to reinforcements! "After Ye Xiao was stripped of the rank of second lieutenant by Major General Niu, he became a big soldier without a title, but he did it because of his merits, so he called himself a warrant officer after a pause.

"Warrant officer? As a training staff officer? "Colonel Qin Jian blinked, what the hell is this? Could it be that the trainee officer in front of him is the head of this unit?

It is worth pointing out that the current 499 regimental commanders are seriously lacking, and the tragic battle just now made most of the civilians and guards go to the death camp to report, and the whole regiment refers to three or two big cats and kittens.

"Don't be afraid of your jokes, the current 499 regiment is just like that, even if the whole regiment receives two battalions of reinforcements, now there is less than one battalion left, Staff Officer Ye, please have to deploy the troops as soon as possible and put them into the position to prevent the blue army from counterattacking." After learning that the support force was led by Ye Xiao, Qin Jian hurriedly told the current predicament and asked the assault battalion to immediately enter the position to start defense.

Ye Xiao did not hesitate in this regard: "Yes, sir!" ”

At the same time, in the command of the 101st Division, the senior officials of the 101st and 109th Divisions gathered together and held a military meeting.

At the meeting place, Major General Lin Lan summed up all the information about Ye Xiao's unit, and emphatically pointed out that the unit has the characteristics of precision strikes, carrying careful missiles and rocket platoons, and having a super firepower delivery capability.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone understands the characteristics of this Red Army unit, in view of this, I can only order the withdrawal of troops, and now I am entangled in the 481 position and ignore our department, so I decided to march eastward, converge and annihilate more than 109 divisions of the 139th Division, cooperate with the armored troops of the 497th Regiment, go straight to the 1685 area, and concentrate my forces to assault the defense line of the 74th Division of the Wehrmacht!"

Assaulting the 74th Division's defensive line was the second set of backup plans in the established plan, and they had always thought that they did not need to implement it, but they did not expect the tide of the battle to turn around, and after losing the opportunity to strike a blow to the back of the 49th Division of the Yulin Army, they could only implement the second set of plans.

Countless losses in the 481st position, but in the end they had to give up, which made these proud eagles feel humiliated - however, they had lost the opportunity to echo the armored forces to break through the 49th Division, as officers, how could they be arrogant?

"I have contacted the 109th Division, and the 109th sent an armored convoy to escort it, in order to prevent the pursuit of the Red Army, I will lead the 2nd Battalion of the 301st Regiment and the 1st Battalion of the 303rd Regiment to break off, and all units will join the 109th convoy as soon as possible with the battalion as a unit to assault the 74th Division!"

"Yes!"

In this battle, the losses of the 101st and 109th Divisions were too heavy - now, they still have to continue to march dozens of kilometers to assault the 74th Division, which is indeed not good news for the airborne troops.

The only consolation is that most of the divisional headquarters, 498 regiments and 499 regiments of the 139th Division of the Blue Army were killed by them, and even the 497th regiment was not having a good time, which was finally a bit of a consolation prize.
