Chapter 998: Killing in the Night II
"Boss, due to the mistake of the headquarters, a main infantry brigade hidden by the guerrillas in the mountains west of Herat was attacked by the US army in the camp, and the special forces of the Navy SEALs attacked the posts along the way, and the US troops successfully approached the camp and suddenly launched an attack, and the infantry brigade that received the early warning of the guard also carried out a counterattack according to the predetermined plan, and the two sides are still fighting fiercely at the moment."
"Our advantage is that the camp has prepared tunnel shelters, ammunition is well prepared, and the US military's surprise attack did not achieve the intended results, and the other side has the advantage that it can be supported by armed helicopters and drones at any time, is well-trained and experienced, and its weapons and equipment are much more advanced than ours, especially in terms of night combat equipment." Thompson reported.
"You always have to pay it back when you come out to mix, there is no good thing in the world that you only take advantage of and do not suffer losses, and it is not surprising that the US military has such a move, you have to tell our soldiers that the war in Afghanistan is a long-term war, don't rush for a while, you will make mistakes sooner or later. The target of our attack is the logistics and transportation of the US military, and the sneak attack is the camp and supplies, and we want to fight face-to-face with the US army, and the mercenary corps does not have this ability now. ”
"Order the participating troops to withdraw from the battle before dawn, the US army will not occupy this valley, because it is meaningless, even if we give it to others for nothing, the other party has to dare to ask for it, stationed in such a mountainous area, I am afraid that I will have nightmares when I sleep!"
"It may be that the progress of this war is far below our predetermined goal, and this is indeed the credit of the guerrilla forces, but you told those front-line commanders that they must strictly follow my tactical thinking and not have the slightest careless thinking, otherwise once serious consequences are caused, I will impose military sanctions." Wu Chen said sternly.
The guerrilla forces were established by Thompson, the commander-in-chief, in order to muddy the waters in the Afghan war and fight against the invading forces of the United States.
In the wars in the north and east of Afghanistan, the guerrilla forces were only responsible for assisting the Taliban army, but in the wars in Kandahar and Herat, the guerrilla forces became the main force, and the Taliban army became a supporter, for which the Taliban government spoke very highly of it.
It has been two months since this war was fought, but the Taliban leaders have not really figured out the structure of the guerrilla forces, and only know that they have personal ties with the mercenary group, as if they belong to the control of a mysterious organization called the Anti-American Alliance, and the rest of the situation is unknown.
From Mazar-i-Sharif and Kundutu in the far north, to Kabul and Memane, plus Jalalabad and other places, guerrilla forces are active everywhere, launching sneak attacks from time to time, forcing the US military to continue to increase its troops, and the defense of cities and military bases occupies a large part of the troops.
Looking at the current situation, the goal of the US military to end the war by Christmas has now come to naught, and most of the south including Kandahar and most of the west including Herat, is still in the hands of the Taliban government.
For Wu Chen, this is a very dangerous sign, and tonight's incident is very obvious, why did not set up monitoring points around the US camp, otherwise as soon as the US army moved, the camp would know that it would fight a very beautiful battle of annihilation, rather than a passive response.
"Boss, our mercenary corps has always had revenge, since the U.S. army has given up attacking the city and turned to dealing with the troops in the mountains, should we also take retaliatory action and launch a battle by surprise, which can also reduce the pressure on the two cities and prolong the end of the war." Thompson said.
"Of course, in order to achieve the strategic objectives promised to the Gulf countries, the necessary counterattacks can be carried out. The General Headquarters and the Special Forces Command have drawn up a plan, the special forces are to block the transportation lines in Jalalabad, forcing the US troops in Kandahar to get support only from Kabul, and Herat can only get support from Memane, these two transport routes are very long, and there are many mountainous areas around, which are very suitable for ambushes, and the remnants of the Taliban and the guerrilla armed forces, as long as the ammunition and materials are replenished and cut off, the US forces are bound to slow down their attacks on these two areas, which will bring the best opportunity for our counterattack. Wu Chen thought for a while and said.
The Gulf states, because Iraq faces the threat of war, which will inevitably affect the balance of the entire region, have agreed to fund mercenaries to assist the Taliban government in its fight against the US military. In fact, the guerrilla forces are responsible for the military expenditures provided by the Gulf countries, and the mercenaries do not allocate a dime.
In other words, through this war, the mercenaries will gain actual control of Afghanistan, weaken the strength of the US military, get a large amount of funds from the Gulf countries, earn the profits of the US government's logistics support, and give Iraq more time to prepare for war.
"Hello, Mr. Wu Chen, do you have time to talk to me?" A beautiful voice sounded in the background.
This is the scene of the celebration reception held after the premiere of the first part of "Pirates of the Caribbean", and Wu Chen came to the corner of the corridor because he had to answer the phone. Since the US military launched a sneak attack at close range, the casualties of the guerrilla forces would definitely be very large, and he was naturally a little unhappy, so he stood in front of the window and looked at the night scene, smoking a cigar in the clouds.
"It turned out to be the beautiful Miss Sophia, it's a pleasure to meet you, your talent, I've heard about it for a long time." Wu Chen turned his head and looked, it turned out to be the famous rookie director Sophia, who can also be called a beauty, although the facial features are not so exquisite, but the temperament is outstanding. Her father is a well-known and veritable director in Hollywood.
"Thank you Mr. Wu Chen for the compliment, you are my idol, yes, I have a very presumptuous request, I just wrote a new script recently, can you please give me some guidance?" Sophia said with a smile.
"There's nothing wrong with that, we can discuss and exchange the plot of the script, but your father should be a better fit than me, so why did he want to find me?" Wu Chen was a little confused. If something is abnormal, it must be a demon, this thing is strange, and he wants to know the reason.
"He doesn't have such deep connections and resources as you, my film needs to be shot in Japan, I know you have a branch in Japan, and you are also very willing to help those new directors, so I want to hang this film under MGM Pictures to shoot, and the heroine can be designated by you." Sophia said.
