Chapter 828: The Decisive Battle Breaks Out Seven
"His Excellency the Commander has sent an urgent order, asking us to open the logistics supply line within 24 hours no matter what, today's offensive ammunition consumption is too large, at most it can last two days, and the casualties of the troops have reached more than 20,000 people, and there is an extreme shortage of medicine and food, and if this continues, the main force will collapse by itself." said the chief of staff of the base.
In the evening, the army commander, who was a little unable to hold on, finally issued an order, confirming that self-help is the first priority at present, and if he can't establish a logistics supply line with the base, he can play himself to death, and having a gun without bullets is equivalent to suicide.
Now is the era of automatic firearms, don't say anything about multiple rocket launchers and self-propelled howitzers, rocket artillery can be fired in more than ten seconds at a time, modern assault rifles are not the original manual single-shot rifles, the rate of fire is hundreds of rounds per minute, and the powerful ones can reach thousands of rounds, which can be said to be very terrifying to the consumption of bullets.
How many bullets can a soldier carry? The standard of the American army is that a soldier carries a base number of bullets, which is thirteen magazines plus gun magazines, a total of fourteen magazines, according to each magazine of thirty rounds, that can carry a maximum of four hundred and twenty rounds, which is not enough to fire in one minute. Of course, this is only theoretical, and according to statistics, it takes at least tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition to destroy an enemy in modern warfare.
The Turkish troops, who are accustomed to largesse, will not be able to save bullets in a short period of time, thinking that the base will transport a large amount of ammunition, and there are hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition in the warehouse, which is not a big deal! Who would have thought that his back road was copied by the enemy, and he encountered unprecedented embarrassment, and there was no ammunition replenishment when he was fighting, so what a fart!
"Our casualties are also very large, today two large-scale attacks in one day, more than 4,000 people were lost, and more than 2,000 people were wounded, and still no results have been achieved. Since His Excellency the Commander has an order, then launch another surprise attack in the early hours of tomorrow morning, order the armored forces to be ready to protect our infantry brigade from attacking, no matter what the cost, the road must be opened! The base commander said without hesitation.
"I immediately informed the troops participating in the battle to immediately enter the preparations, fill up the vehicles, and the officers and men also need to get enough sleep, and I want to make more delicious food in the restaurant tonight, and rest immediately after eating, and keep the interior of the base as quiet as possible." said the chief of staff of the base.
"Inform the brigade-level generals to have a meeting in the conference room to discuss the combat plan, tomorrow I am going to use the strength of the three infantry brigades to break through the opponent's position in one fell swoop with the cooperation of the armored brigade, they have no heavy equipment, all the main battle tanks and armored transport vehicles must participate in the battle, either you die or I die!" The base commander said.
Night fell quickly, Eric was speaking in front of the Devil Commando team at the moment, as the commander of more than 200,000 troops, shouldering Wu Chen's heavy trust, of course he couldn't lead the team personally, but the special forces trained by one hand could do the job.
"Brothers, tonight's main task is to destroy the base's power and communication systems, snatch the opponent's armored vehicles, create opportunities and open the way for the large army to attack the base, according to the boss's instructions, we will take this base in one fell swoop, and then attack Kayseri."
"The outcome of this war between the Kurds and the Turkish government is in the hands of our special forces, as long as the base is completely occupied, the main Turkish forces attacking in the front will not be reinforced, and they can only choose to give in to us when they run out of ammunition and food."
"On the battlefield in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the performance of the Devil Commando has been affirmed by the boss, and I hope that this honor will also accompany you through every minute and every second of tonight! Let's go! Eric said solemnly.
More than 1,000 special forces of the mercenary corps Devil Commando secretly rushed to the Mosul base from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and then lurked in the mountains near Kayseri, waiting for orders. The stakes are so high that all of them are dispatched.
There are also positions of Turkish troops on the periphery of the base, with infantry tunnel bunkers in the front, artillery positions in the back, and defensive walls of the base in the back, but tonight the moon is dark and windy, and the lush grass hides the actions of the special forces.
They wore Turkish camouflage uniforms prepared in advance, and the Kurdish army captured more than 20,000 Turkish officers and soldiers, and the clothes were very easy to obtain. Under the command of the leader, the special forces quietly approached the base, and in the unexpected situation of the enemy, the whole company of positions was ended, most of the people slept and snored, and the sentries were staggering, and they only needed to cut their throats with their knives.
Originally, it didn't go so smoothly, but tomorrow morning the attack was to be launched, and some troops were transferred to the base to prepare, and after eating and drinking, they would rest in the dormitory, so that the special forces could take advantage of it. And the defensive wall is full of holes, and it is easy to infiltrate, leaving one squadron of men to continue to open the passage for the follow-up troops, and the rest all infiltrate the base.
"I personally led the first squadron, and the specific tasks were as follows, the first squadron was responsible for destroying the power system of the base and guarding the material warehouse. The second and third squads are responsible for attacking the opposing team's chain of command, the fourth squad is responsible for guarding the oil and ammunition depots, and the fifth squad is responsible for vehicles. ”
"The targets of the second squadron are the main battle tanks, armored vehicles and self-propelled guns of the base, especially anti-aircraft missiles, and our stealth fighter-bombers have taken off and will drop bombs on the enemy's quarters." Said the captain of the commando.
It stands to reason that the target set by the special forces tonight is a bit high, and from the point of view of task distribution, it is particularly arrogant, even if the main force goes to the mountains, the entire base now has the strength of more than 20,000 people in two infantry brigades and two mechanized brigades, and more than 1,000 people against more than 20,000 people, which is disproportionate!
The Turkish army also knows the importance of this forward base, and for this decisive battle, the ammunition and materials stored in the base are all calculated in 10,000 tons, and there are hundreds of millions of bullets.
However, the special forces are the real spoils in the army, that is, they want to complete the impossible tasks that ordinary people see, which is not uncommon in the world's military history, otherwise how can they be called special forces? According to the information provided by the Global Hawk unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, the various squadrons are well aware of the base.
The US Air Force is also the world's most advanced Global Hawk unmanned reconnaissance plane, which is really too perverted, staring at the movements of the bases 24 hours a day, feeling the positions of important targets clearly, and even making the rules of patrols clear, and the special forces have achieved a definite target, or how to say that the factor in winning the war is high technology!
In fact, every day, there are drones hovering over the troops on the front line from Kasseli to Sivas, Turkey, which can stay for more than 40 hours at most, and continuously send real-time information to the Mosul base.
The contrast between the Kurdish army, which looks at the movements of the Turkish army and formulates its strategy, and the Turkish army, which decides on its actions based on a rough analysis, is a fatal flaw, and now that it has entered the information age, war cannot be won by relying on a large number of people.
