Chapter 10: The Battle of Beartooth Begins
After Zhang Hai returned to the station of the first platoon, he immediately gathered the robes of the whole platoon for a meeting, announced the next action arrangement, and told the squad leaders of each squad to prepare for action, and set off on time at one o'clock in the afternoon, the time passed quickly, after having lunch early, the Second Marine Division gathered in the square of the camp after handing over the defense of the camel bell star with the friendly troops who came to take over the defense, and began to board the transport ship in a strict and orderly manner. At one o'clock in the afternoon, the group of transports loaded with the 2nd Marine Division took off.
After taking off, the transport ship cluster quickly converged with the starship cluster of the Third Star Combat Division of the Second Star Fighting Army at the near-Earth space of the Camel Bell Star, and then the starship cluster of the Third Star Combat Division escorted the transport ship cluster and flew straight towards the Brown Bear Star Field.
Like last time, this time the company remained on alert as a whole, and everyone was sitting in the cockpit of the mecha on standby, and Captain Zhang Haihai was sitting in the cockpit of his mecha at the moment with his eyes closed.
After sleeping for a while, Zhang Hai opened the drawer of the mecha console and took out a box of morning glory cigarettes, he first smoked one out and lit it and put it on his mouth, and then threw a whole box of cigarettes directly out of the cab.
On the other hand, Zhang Heng controlled the mecha's manipulator to catch the cigarette case steadily, and manipulated the manipulator to quickly take out a cigarette from it, and then threw the cigarette case back. Zhang Hai caught it firmly and took the cigarette case back into his cockpit.
Ten minutes later, while listening to the details of the action plan broadcast on the company's radio, Zhang Hai looked at the vast starry sky that was passing quickly outside the porthole of the transport ship, for some reason, Zhang Hai suddenly silently adjusted the center of gravity of his body's sitting posture to the mecha console, and his heart began to firm, and he moved his arms and fingers a little, as if he was doing warm-up exercises before the big battle.
Two hours later, the starship cluster of the Third Star Warrior Division escorted the transport ship cluster through the border checkpoint between the Camel Star Domain and the Brown Bear Star Domain, and jumped to the vicinity of the near-Earth space of the first star of the Brown Bear Star Domain, Bear Tooth Star, along the way, the starship cluster of the Third Star Warrior Division was not intercepted by the starship cluster on the Blackbird Empire's side, and it was obvious that this time the Starship Cluster of the Blackbird Empire was also suppressed enough by the Star Wars troops on the side of the Kunlong Empire.
At this time, Zhang Hai and Pao Ze were looking at the scene outside through the observation device of the transport ship, and they could see that in the low-earth orbit of the Beartooth Star, as far as the eye could see, there was a cluster of airport fortresses that had been bombarded and destroyed, Zhang Hai knew at a glance that this must be the starship cluster of the Second Star Battle Army of the Kunlong Empire that destroyed the airport fortress cluster set up in the near-Earth space of the Beartooth Star on the Blackbird Empire when covering the first wave of landing, Zhang Hai couldn't help but look at the deep and dark starry sky near the Beartooth Star at this time, I wondered if their second wave of landings would be blocked.
But his own transport ship cluster did not give him this opportunity to think, and soon, the transport ship group began to directly enter the atmosphere of Bear Tooth Star, preparing to land on the surface of Bear Tooth Star, this time the landing operation is much safer than the last time, because in the early stage, the first Marine Army of the Kunlong Empire has already landed first, five, and six Marine Divisions and established a solid offensive base, and now the first, fifth, and sixth Marine Divisions have advanced the battle line to less than a hundred kilometers away from the central city of Bear Tooth.
Under these favorable conditions, the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Marine Divisions of the 1st Marine Army of the Kunlong Empire, as follow-up support forces, successfully landed at 2:30 p.m. on November 22, 4816 in the universe calendar, and successfully landed in the temporary attack base built by friendly forces 180 kilometers south of the central city of Beartooth Star. When the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Marine Divisions of the 1st Marine Army arrived at the offensive base, the various combat units under the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Marine Divisions began to organize their ranks and prepare for the attack.
At this time, the 1st Company also held a temporary mission briefing under the auspices of the company commander, Major Li Zhan, and the generals of the whole company drove the mechs to line up in the offensive battle formation, and listened attentively to the briefing of the company commander, Major Li Zhan, on the current ground battle situation on Xiongya Star and the briefing on the combat mission of the 1st Company in the driver's cab of their mecha.
I saw Major Li Zhan first say to everyone: The Blackbird Empire has learned the lesson of the loss of the Ostrich Star Field not long ago, this time our opponent is the 1st Guards Marine Army of the Blackbird Empire, which has six Guards Marine Divisions under its jurisdiction, with as many as 500,000 troops, after our Kunlong Empire launched an attack on the Brown Bear Star Domain, the 1st Guards Marine Army of the Blackbird Empire learned the lesson that the 17th Marine Army of the Blackbird Empire was broken by us due to the dispersion of troops.
This time, the 1st Guards Marine Army of the Blackbird Empire concentrated all the six Guards Marine Divisions under its command on the Bear's Tooth Star, and at present, four of their six Guards Marine Divisions are facing against the first, fifth, and sixth marine divisions of the First Marine Army that we arrived in advance, and they still have two Guards Marine Divisions that have been trying to attack the defense line of our First Marine Army's First, Fifth, and Sixth Marine Divisions, but our next three Marine Divisions came too quickly, so they didn't have time to carry out a sneak attack.
And judging from the feedback from the front, although the technical and tactical level of the 1st Guards Marine Army of the Blackbird Empire is still much worse than that of our Kunlong Empire army, we still have to be mentally prepared to face a strong enemy this time, do you understand? When Major Li Zhan said this sentence with full of anger, the soldiers of the whole company shouted loudly: Understand, our generation will defeat the enemy!
Seeing that the army's morale was available, Major Li Zhan immediately announced a plan of action, and ten minutes later, the 1st Company, together with the other brother companies of the 2nd Battalion, would participate in a flexible offensive operation with a roundabout flank attack to the north and the nature of reinforcing friendly troops.
Just ten minutes later, in the afternoon sun of Beartooth Star, the mecha cluster of the 2nd Battalion set off in full gear and walked at the front of the marching column of the 1st Regiment of the entire 2nd Marine Division. Three hours later, in the evening of Beartooth Star, the entire regiment had advanced about 180 kilometers to the north, and on the left side of their mecha column, almost the shadow of the buildings on the edge of the central city of Beartooth Star could be faintly seen, but at this moment, the mecha cluster of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Marine Division of the Kunlong Empire also collided head-on with the 1st Guards Marine Brigade of the 1st Guards Marine Division of the Blackbird Empire, which had been waiting here for a long time.
