Eleven o'clock.

Qin Zhan led a seven-platoon armored unit, a total of twenty-eight tanks, and had already begun to pursue to the south.

In order to succeed in this roundabout landing, the staff of the Naval Resistance Army also struggled with their brains. Many adjustments have been made in the allocation of troops. In order to ensure the assault capability of this field force, the Naval Resistance Army mobilized two armored companies with combat effectiveness. QIN ZHAN LEFT THE 122 ASSAULT GUN PLATOON AND THE 88MM FIGHTER COMPANY TO BAO GANG, AND HE BROUGHT SIX ARMORED PLATOONS AND ONE ARMORED PLATOON PREPARED BY THE FIELD BATTALION, A TOTAL OF SEVEN PLATOONS AND TWENTY-EIGHT TANKS.

The armored forces, as the vanguard of this roundabout battle, totaled less than five hundred, but had twenty-eight vehicles.

In the plan, Qin Zhan's forward first step is to intersperse Bour'au south of Berbera, and then continue south to Dallas Arnold. At this point, it was possible to intercept the retreat of the main Italian army in Erigabo.

Li Guang's courage to throw 2,000 troops into the hinterland of the Italian army was not arrogant, but based on a deep understanding of the Italian army. After a long period of investigation and interrogation, the Naval Resistance Force had a considerable understanding of the equipment and training of the Italian army.

The equipment of the Italian army is actually stronger than that of the Chinese army in China, but it is also very limited. A REGULAR ITALIAN INFANTRY DIVISION HAD ONLY TWENTY-FOUR 75MM GUNS AND 12 100MM GUNS, AND THE TANKS WERE VERY FEW EQUIPPED, AND THE TANKS OF THE ITALIAN ARMY WERE ALL MORE THAN THREE TONS OF GADGETS.

If the amount of ammunition is calculated, the 2,000 troops of the Naval Resistance Army will exceed the Italian army by one division.

And the roundabout support of the Naval Resistance Army is not limited to this, the entire Somali Peninsula is under the attack of the Naval Resistance Army's fighters. You must know that the Naval Resistance Army now has a total of nearly 100 fighters, and this kind of firepower is definitely not something that the Italian infantry can resist.

It can be said that even in the face of two divisions of the Italian army, the army led by Bao Gang will not necessarily suffer defeat.

And in the Somali Peninsula, the Italian army absolutely does not have a single regular division. Although the Italian army was numerous, most of them were black troops, and the black troops only equipped with light weapons were not strong enough in combat effectiveness. IN FACT, EVEN IF THE ITALIAN ARMY IS DEFINITELY NOT A STRONG ARMY, EVEN ITS REGULAR ARMY IS NOT FULLY EQUIPPED WITH THE STANDARD WEAPONS OF THE ITALIAN ARMY, IN TERMS OF HEAVY FIREPOWER, IT IS ACTUALLY DIFFICULT FOR A DIVISION TO AVERAGE TWELVE 75MM GUNS, AND MANY ARMIES ARE ALSO EQUIPPED WITH OBSOLETE ARTILLERY FROM THE FIRST WORLD WAR, AND EVEN MANY LIGHT WEAPONS ARE STILL EQUIPPED WITH EQUIPMENT FROM THE LAST CENTURY. It can be said that such equipment is not much better than that of the Chinese army, and as for the combat effectiveness, I am afraid that it is not even as good as the miscellaneous cards of the Chinese army.

As soon as Qin Zhan's armored forces began to assault, the Italian army completely lost its organizational ability. The Italian army also showed a little combat effectiveness when it landed on the Naval Resistance Army, but the subsequent performance completely exposed the combat effectiveness and organizational ability of this army. Originally, more than 20 kilometers south of Berbera, there was a mountain range, and according to the battle plan of the Naval Resistance Army, there was probably a vicious battle there. But in fact, in this valley, Qin Zhan's armored troops passed without resistance, and the blocking fortifications built by the Italian army were empty, and there was no resistance from the Italian army at all.

In this way, Qin Zhan's assault was extremely fast, and across this mountainous area was the vast Gobi Desert. The terrain on both sides of the road is low Gobi sand dunes, which makes it even more difficult for the Italian army to organize a blockade, and the assault ability of the armored forces on this terrain is unparalleled. Often, the armored forces did not even slow down, and the small resistance of the Italian army was crushed. The steel monsters followed the road like tigers out of their cages, pulling the yellow sand and dust all the way forward.

Qin Zhan didn't have much combat experience, and although he had learned some theories of armored warfare in many countries, he was still a rookie in nature. However, this kind of battle was something he had never imagined, and as long as the armored forces moved forward, the enemy army would completely collapse. Qin Zhan couldn't even understand the reason for the victory, but the troops broke through one Italian "defensive line" after another so easily. When Qin Zhan first came out of Bobera, he was still a little cautious, but as he defeated the Italian army several times in succession, he became more and more bold.

Qin Zhan's offensive speed brought endless pressure to Bao Gang. Qin Zhan kept asking for help, and the noisy Bao Gang was a little anxious. Qin Zhan was not having difficulty in the battle, but was captured. There are just too many captives.

Everywhere the tanks went, the Italian army surrendered without a fight, and on both sides of the road were Italian soldiers or black soldiers who knelt on the ground and surrendered. These surrendered soldiers were like flies, and they were everywhere.

In the afternoon, Qin Zhan didn't know what to do. He is an assault force, and he can't be held back by these captives, otherwise he won't be able to complete the task, and Li Guang will clean him up.

In desperation, Qin Zhan had no choice but to bother Commander Bao Gang.

Bao Gang was annoyed by Qin Zhan and couldn't stand it, and ordered: "Throw the prisoner there, you just attack." ”

In fact, Bao Gang was also a headache for the captives at this time, and he had already collected more than 2,000 captives in Berbera. At this moment, in Bao Gang's view, these captives are not only not war achievements, but drags. Killing and not killing, throwing is a dangerous factor.

There was no way, Bao Gang had no choice but to report the situation to Li Guang. When Li Guang heard this, he was overjoyed, these captives were good labor for Tang Gang. He ordered Bao Gang to gather all the prisoners on the beach and prepare for the next battle himself.

Guarding the captives, can you use the main force? Put it within range of the ship's guns and see which captives dare to escape.

Even so, by four o'clock in the afternoon, Bao had just taken care of the prisoners, and the troops could assemble and set off.

One step can't keep up, and one step can't keep up. Bao Gang had just set off as a team, and at six o'clock Qin Zhan reported that he had taken Bulao. The problem remains that the captives cannot be disposed of.

Bao Gang is in a hurry, seeing a city, his field camp was taken by Qin Zhan before he could do it. Battle exploits, these are all low-hanging fruit feats.

As the commander of the first field battalion, Bao Gang naturally would not compete with Qin Zhan, the junior battalion commander, but no matter what, he had to rush to the battlefield to have merit.

Bao Gang attacked very quickly, and the fully mechanized troops could advance twenty or thirty kilometers in an hour. But no matter how fast he had to deal with the prisoners, on the way he collected a bunch of captives, and then another captive. There were still piles of captives ahead of the road, and the work of collecting them seemed to be a long way off.

Slowly, Bao Gang discovered that the Italian prisoners, whether white or black, were quite disciplined. In some sections, Qin Zhan didn't leave anyone to take care of them at all, and these prisoners actually sat on the ground in a formation and waited to receive them.

Bao Gang also became bold, leaving only one squad of fighters, just taking off the bolts of the prisoners' guns and letting the prisoners return to Berbera with their own weapons.

In this way, Bao Gang's forward speed increased. By the time Bao had just arrived in Bulau late at night. I have to complain again, there are still piles of captives outside the city. Bao Gang, Battalion Commander Bao couldn't be angry anymore, and began to slander Qin Zhan, the junior battalion commander.

But this roundabout operation, he was the military director, and these tasks were all within his responsibility. In desperation, he worked hard like a nanny and collected 2,000 captives again.

At ten o'clock in the morning of the 26th, Qin Zhan sent another telegram saying that after a short battle, the armored forces had taken Lasanold, and asked Bao Gang for instructions on how to deal with the prisoners.

Bao Gang is so angry, I feel that my main force is just doing chores for you Qin Zhan kid. Collect the prisoners, collect the prisoners, how can the troops still march? In fact, Qin Zhan was also a little confused at this time, his troops actually didn't shoot a few cannons at all, the enemy had already raised the white flag, and he couldn't win slowly.

In the face of such a sharp breakthrough, Bao Gang was also at a loss, and he felt that his battlefield experience for more than ten years had been completely invalid in the Gobi Desert of Somalia. Qin Zhan advanced more than 200 kilometers in one day and one night. That's twice as fast as a battle plan. Originally, the plan was to take Bour'au on the first day and Las Arnold on the second day.

Although Qin Zhan was still eager to try, he wanted to continue the attack. As the military commander of the First Army, Bao Gang felt that prudence was still necessary. He took into account that Qin Zhan had been marching continuously for more than twenty hours, the personnel needed to rest, and the tank also needed to be overhauled. Of course, more importantly, the large army worked hard to collect the prisoners, and they were more tired than fighting, and they had to rest for a short time, so they ordered Qin Zhan to also take a short rest.
