Chapter 207: Entering Yunyang County
UC Chinese is the fastest to update the latest chapter of the final trial of death. On the stretch of the road, hundreds of military trucks and armored vehicles sped by, followed by large and small transport vehicles, transporting mechs.
After more than six hours of driving, the convoy finally left the road and turned into a military camp outside a small county town.
This was the base of the 2nd Regiment of the 3rd Division of the 3rd Army of the 9th Army, which had taken over the defence from the vanguard of the 7th Army three hours earlier, and that vanguard had withdrawn to Donghe City for repairs, just like the rest of the attacking teams from all sides.
Luo Han jumped out of the military vehicle and saluted the commander of the second regiment who had been waiting in front of the convoy, and the commander of the second regiment returned the salute and said: "I heard that your unit is about to leave for Yunyang County, and the commander-in-chief ordered me to prepare food and energy supplies, I wonder if Colonel Hanfeng will eat first or check the supplies first?" Luo Han looked back at his soldiers and said, "The brothers are tired, let's eat first." Kevin, wait a minute, take the logistics brother to see the supply situation after eating. ”
"Yes, sir." Lieutenant Colonel Kevin greeted him, and immediately the soldiers of the communications company gave an order, and all the soldiers went to the dining hall under the guidance of the 2nd Regiment.
Luo Han walked side by side with the commander of the second regiment and asked: "Commander Ma, my knowledge of Yunyang County is limited to the intelligence of the military department, you take over the defense here, you should have some understanding of the neighboring places, can you explain it to me?" Captain Ma laughed: "This is natural, don't worry, let's talk while eating." "The food provided by the Federal Army is generally high-nutrient canned food and nutrient solution, which can provide the energy needed for battle, but the taste is mediocre, and it is even more undesirable to eat too much.
Therefore, the Federation will issue additional food subsidies to front-line troops to purchase food in the occupied areas.
Most units have a cooking squad in their logistics unit that cooks the food, and what you can eat depends entirely on what is available in the local market.
Luo Han's table, with two regiment commanders and eight deputy regiment commanders and two chiefs of staff, surrounded a large round table. Luo Han saw that the food was quite rich, there were fish and meat, although there were only six dishes and one soup, but the portion was full.
Commander Ma introduced: "We can't be special as the head of the regiment, these are all big pot dishes, but ordinary soldiers are two meat and one vegetarian to choose, and the soup is self-serving, after all, there are many people, so let the kitchen have a copy of each dish." Luo Han took a pair of chopsticks and tasted it, and praised: "Yes, Head Ma, your cooking skills are not inferior to the chef of the hotel." Captain Ma smiled: "That's right, the cooking soldiers of our federation are all professional." Captain Hanfeng, I heard that you just took over this regiment, so you must not have tasted the craftsmanship of your regiment. Let me tell you, this big pot of rice is nothing, and when you have your spare time, you ask the cooks to get some dim sum for supper, and that's delicious. Luo Han echoed and laughed a few times, pulled the topic back and asked, "Head Ma, let's talk about Yunyang County." Commander Ma thought for a while and said: "I don't know the specifics, I heard from the previous troops that Yunyang County is now stationed in a reinforced regiment of the Emperor **R Star Southern Group Army, with about 3,000 personnel, but the empire knows, there are not many other mechas, this regiment is equipped with a mecha battalion of 300 mechas, of which twenty are Destruction Knights, and the leader is said to be a modified Destruction Knight, I don't know what is going on." At present, this regiment is huddled in Yunyang County, and only a small number of infantry patrols the surrounding villages and towns to cooperate with the local police to maintain law and order. Luo Han frowned, modern warfare is much more friendly to siege cities, at least it doesn't take several times the superior force to fight the enemy, but now he is a side with fewer people and fewer mechas, which seems to be quite difficult.
Putting this question aside for the time being, Luo Han asked, "Is there any news about the Sixth Army of the Seventh Army?" Commander Ma shook his head: "You mean the troops of the Sixth Army on the border of the Nanyun Theater, right?" I've sent scouts to try to make contact, but there's no news yet. As you know, in a place like the front line, both sides are desperately shielding signals, and it is good if their own troops can maintain a small range of communications, and other troops can only rely on primitive means to communicate. Luo Han nodded, they are all high-tech troops, and the first thing they do in a battle is to interfere with communications.
Small-area combat channels can barely be maintained through the efforts of the communications troops, and farther communications can only hope that the other side's interference will be detected by itself.
It was a pleasure to chat with Captain Ma, this is a veteran oilman who has participated in the offensive and defensive battles of two planets, and R star is the third planet he has landed on as a warrior.
From a grassroots officer to the position of colonel and regiment commander, Regiment Commander Ma has experienced too much, so he can see everything easily, and he has a life to pick it up, and he can live one more day to earn the mentality.
After eating and drinking, Luo Han took people to inspect the supplies. Each airport has been continuously putting supplies, plus the federal government has invested a large amount of military subsidies, so Commander Ma is not stingy, and all kinds of supplies are rationed according to the maximum amount, so Luo Han has nothing to be picky about.
After the inspection, the sky was already dark, and Commander Ma transferred the cargo mecha to load the items onto the truck, and Luo Han gathered the troops and said goodbye to Commander Ma.
The next journey, it is already the emperor's control area, the front row of armored vehicles open the way, the precision shooter vigilantly scans the surroundings through the infrared scope, once someone appears immediately to confirm the identity, or kill or knock down, the mecha pilot all enters the mecha, ready to fight at any time.
Further ahead, the reconnaissance company has been put in to clear the checkpoints on the route and sort out the road conditions. In the case of not having the advantage of troops, the two sides will inevitably need a period of time to test and understand, so the 3rd Regiment must first occupy a small town as a stronghold, whether it is to supply on the spot or to receive supplies from the rear, it needs to be in a convenient place of transportation.
While he was on the move, a large transport truck chased after him from behind, and the soldiers in the back row were immediately on alert, and Han Qingwei's head stuck out of the window and shouted: "My lord, don't shoot, it's me." Luo Han opened the combat channel and directly connected to the rear team and said: "He is my orderly, allow this car to follow the advance." The convoy continued to move forward, and the regimental staff headed by Lieutenant Colonel Kevin suddenly connected to Luo Han's personal channel, and Lieutenant Colonel Kevin said loudly: "Regiment commander, the reconnaissance company has arrived in the first town of Wàiwéi. According to the preliminary investigation, about 30 people from an infantry platoon were stationed in No. 1 Town, and 22 policemen were equipped with guns. Luo Han ordered: "Order the reconnaissance company to disperse, block the road in and out of No. 1 Town, and when we arrive, we will directly crush the emperor." ”
"Yes, sir." Twenty minutes on, the convoy saw a small town lit up and quietly across the road.
A few scouts emerged from the grass on the side of the road and watched the convoy enter the town.
On the armored car at the head of the platoon, a soldier took out a loudspeaker and shouted: "The emperor of the town, listen, you have been surrounded!" We have a whole regiment! Stop making senseless resistance! Now lay down your arms and surrender, and we will treat you according to the regulations of the prisoners! The emperor of the town, listen, you are already surrounded! We have a whole regiment! Stop making senseless resistance! Now lay down your arms and surrender, and we will treat you according to the regulations of the prisoners......" This is Lieutenant Colonel Kevin's suggestion, and when the gap between us and the enemy is irreversible, a pointless battle is a complete waste of energy and life.
You must know that the war between the Empire and the Federation is only because of institutional conflicts, the people on both sides are compatriots from the same planet, and there is no deep hatred between you and me, and at least for the time being, both sides strictly abide by the rules of war, one does not take prisoners, and the other does not oppress civilians, so even the military leaders on both sides do not prohibit troops from surrendering in a desperate situation.
The sound of a loudspeaker pierced through the night sky, shaking all the windows open, and the townspeople poked their heads out to look at the huge convoy entering the town.
Hundreds of heavily armed soldiers walked on either side of the convoy, and the jīqiāng on the cart frequently turned the muzzle of the black press, scanning all corners of the town.
Hundreds of mechs followed the team with heavy steps, giving people a strong sense of oppression. After a while, a group of imperial ** soldiers walked out, threw their weapons on the ground, squatted down with their heads in their hands, and expressed their abandonment of resistance.
At the same time, a team of federal soldiers took control of the town's police station, and after some negotiations, the long-range weapons in the police station were confiscated, and the establishment was still retained, responsible for the day-to-day security of the town.
The first town was quickly controlled by the Third Regiment, the zhèngfǔ office building became a temporary station for Luo Han, and the surrounding playground park and other open spaces became a temporary camp for the federal army.
On the one hand, Luo Han recruited the town's public servants to negotiate, and on the other hand, he sent a reconnaissance company to understand the surrounding situation, and at the same time divided troops to guard the town's access roads, and called the communication company to block the town's external communication signals.
At the same time, the General Staff drew up a plan for the next step of the operation based on the information fed back by the reconnaissance company. The feeling that a big war was imminent enveloped Town One.
There are a total of seven towns in Yunyang County, because there are too many immigrant planets, and the repetition rate of names is too high, so this kind of town simply has no name but number, which is No. 1, No. 2 and No. 7.
According to the information of the reconnaissance company, the emperor of Yunyang County has almost given up the territory outside the county seat, and there are only a few dozen emperor soldiers stationed in each town.
However, Luo Han was not happy at all, due to the particularity of the cosmic era, the population is mostly concentrated in cities, such as Yunyang County, where more than 100,000 people live in the county, and the surrounding seven towns add up to less than 10,000, not to mention the difference in economic ability and scientific and technological level, there is a world of difference in supply capacity.
The only advantage is that the city basically does not grow food, and completely relies on the supply of surrounding towns, which is also the meaning of the existence of these towns, but the emperor has already made plans to stick to Yunyang County, and has already stored a large amount of grain in advance, unless Luo Han plans to fight here for three or five years.
In this situation, the emperor ** who gathers in one place is undoubtedly an iron turtle, and it is very difficult to defeat, and when the federal army is scattered, it is inevitable that the emperor ** will not have any ideas.
After handling the daily affairs of the town, Luo Han found Lieutenant Colonel Kevin and talked secretly with the chief of staff for half an hour, and then the second and third battalions of the infantry left the first town and captured the remaining six towns along the road, leaving with them two platoons of sixty mechs.
In the Emperor's ** military camp outside Yunyang County, thirty-six-year-old Colonel Carlos was leisurely playing cosmic chess with a lieutenant colonel in the camp tent, and the chief of staff suddenly broke into the camp tent and said loudly: "Report, the Third Regiment of the First Division of the Fifth Army of the Seventh Army of the Federation entered the territory of Yunyang, first captured the No. 1 Town, and then divided the troops to occupy the remaining six towns. Colonel Carlos unhurriedly put down a chess piece and asked lightly: "I know that regiment, I heard that when I was in Mu County, the regiment headquarters was all served by Zhu Maokun's hillbilly, and several deputy regiment commanders and regiment commanders died. ”
"Yes, sir. According to intelligence, the current regimental commander and deputy regimental commander of the enemy army are members of the storm special operations squad that made a big splash a few days ago, and all of them were promoted because of merit. ”
"Oh? A strong warrior is not necessarily a good commander. Carloston paused and asked, "Do you have any specific information about the enemy?" ”
"The enemy has three infantry battalions, an artillery battalion, and a heavy infantry company, a mecha company, an engineer company, etc., totaling about 2,000 people. In addition, due to the division of troops to occupy the remaining six towns, the enemy sent two infantry battalions and two mecha platoons. Carlos's eyes lit up: "In other words, the main force of the enemy army in Town No. 1 is only one infantry battalion and one artillery battalion, plus a platoon of mechs and a group of miscellaneous troops?" ”
"Yes, sir, based on the summary of the intelligence sent back by the captured soldiers of our army before they surrendered, it can be inferred that there are still about 1,200 people in the enemy's No. 1 town." Carlos laughed: "Sure enough, it's a rookie, it's really bold to dare to divide the troops even though the troops are not superior." The lieutenant colonel opposite Carlos complimented: "Thanks to the regimental commander who anticipated the enemy first, abandoned the surrounding towns in advance, made a posture of defending Yunyang, and let the enemy occupy it, there is such a great opportunity." Carlos proudly blew the meticulously groomed beard on his lips and said loudly: "Order, the first battalion, the second battalion, the third battalion and the mecha battalion, immediately set off and assault Town No. 1." In addition, the four battalions and five battalions launched attacks on the remaining six towns respectively to contain the enemy forces. I don't believe it, the infantry is superior in numbers, the number of mechs is several times that of the enemy, and it can't defeat an infantry battalion plus an artillery battalion and a bunch of logistics units in the Federation. The chief of staff hesitated: "But...... As a result, the camp will have only a few hundred logistical and technical troops, and only your guard company will have enough combat power. Carlos was dissatisfied: "Do you think that the main force of the enemy army can bypass the main force of our army and sneak attack the camp?" Even if they can do it, this is a modern war, a distance of more than ten kilometers is fleeting, unless they use heavy artillery to shoot, do you think we hundreds of people will not be able to hold out for more than ten minutes? Or do you think that they are deaf and blind when their artillery battalion moves so much? The chief of staff could not find a refutation for a while, so he could only acquiesce in Colonel Carlos's combat order.
In the barracks, the infantry quickly put on their armor and lined up to board trucks. The mecha is activated one by one, and the electronic eye emits a striking red light, shining on the ground in front of you, and you can run wild at night at any time.
