1814 kills two birds with one stone
While the Battle of Dulok was in full swing, the Allied forces in both European and American directions continued to advance southward.
Due to the repeated ambushes of aliens, both the European coalition forces and the Mi army are much more cautious than before, and their speed is much less than before.
However, slow is only relative, no matter what time it is, the marching speed of the fully mechanized troops is not much slower, and all enemy nests along the way will be destroyed!
The strategic node of human beings is the city, and the strategic node of the aliens is the nest, whether it is human beings or aliens, they are all points to the surface, no matter how large-scale the field battle, it is the appetizer to seize the strategic node.
In mid-May, shortly after the second advance of the Southeast Cluster into Dulo Island, the Western Front of the European coalition forces successfully regained the Western European plain and advanced the front to the Franco-Spanish border.
The troops of the Eastern Front were also on a good front, successfully recovering the Bodian Plain, driving the enemy into the depths of the Alps and advancing the front to the south bank of the Danube.
The terrain in the depths of the Alps is complicated, which is not conducive to the deployment of mechanized troops, so the European coalition forces have no idea of marching into the Alps for the time being, according to the plan, the European coalition forces are preparing to move south from the left and right sides of the Alps, while encircling the Alps with heavy troops, seize the Apennine Peninsula and the Balkan Peninsula, and then wipe out the enemy who fled into the mountains when the time is ripe.
On the American side, the eastern and western fronts of the Mi Army gathered heavy troops, advancing step by step, constantly compressing the actual line of control of the aliens, not only recapturing the occupied territory of the Mi Army, but also crossing the Mi-Mexico border in one breath and pushing the front into Mexican territory.
The North American continent is wide in the north and narrow in the south, and the closing position is precisely the Mi-Mo border, that is, the density of Mi troops after crossing the border is unprecedented.
However, more troops are not always better, and Franklin sensibly asked most of the Mi army to stand by and let only a quarter of the total number of troops participating in the war cross the border.
All in all, mankind's military operations during this period have achieved great success, and although there are some minor problems on the three fronts of Asia, Europe, and the United States, the flaws are not concealed, and on the whole it is still human superiority.
It was also during this period that the confrontation between the enemy and the enemy entered a new stage, which can be summed up as the armor of human beings, the ammunition of giant insects, and the marginalization of insect people.
But the aliens are never willing to fail, and have been secretly brewing new counterattacks.
In the early morning of May 24, 2037 Northern Capital Time, in the central part of Duluo Island.
Qi Jingwen got out of the armored car and casually found a place to solve his personal problems.
As soon as I returned to the armored car, I saw the communicator running over in a hurry and whispered: "Report, the latest order from above!" With a wave of his finger, Qi Jingwen immediately received an encrypted file.
Qi Jingwen asked, "What did you say above?"
The correspondent opened the document and said in a low voice: "According to the report of the meteorological department, this year's No. 1 tropical storm is approaching Duluo Island from the southeast, and it is expected that the center of the storm will pass through the Luzon and Duluo lines at about 15 o'clock this afternoon.
After listening to this, Qi Jingwen looked up at the sky, the clear sky last night had been obscured by low lead clouds, and the dark clouds were so low that they seemed to be touched by raising his hand, which filled his heart with indescribable depression: "Okay, I know!"
The correspondent turned to leave, Qi Jingwen returned to the command vehicle, and asked for the fleet's communication: "Youzhou, Youzhou, please answer if you receive it!"
"Youzhou received, please speak!"
"Youzhou, the order has been received, but our department has a huge consumption and urgently needs supplies to replenish, please send supplies to the logistics force as soon as possible!"
"The Youzhou understands that the convoy is approaching your department, and it is expected to arrive around nine o'clock!"
At the end of the communication, Qi Jingwen breathed a long sigh of relief, but his heart was not all put down, and he secretly guessed whether the supply team could arrive on time.
At present, the landing force has taken control of most of the island, and has pressed the remnants of the enemy in the southern part of the island, and at the speed of the advance during this period, it will only take a few days to completely control the whole island.
However, the landing force was moving too fast, and the forward combat troops were out of touch with the supply convoy, and the remaining supplies in Qi Jingwen's hands were only to fight defense, and he had no ability to attack at all.
If supplies could not be delivered on time, it would be impossible for Qi Jingwen's troops to launch an attack on time.
Although Qi Jingwen had already memorized the map of the whole island in his heart, but the decisive battle was imminent, he still found out the map and carefully pondered how to fight this battle.
He was a northerner and was not very familiar with tropical storms, but the sky was cloudy like this, and the wind was getting stronger, and it would certainly not be long before the wind and rain would ensue.
The mountains on the island are high and densely forested, there are towering trees everywhere, and the armored vehicles are all twenty or thirty tons of iron lumps......
Just as he was thinking about it, the radar on the car suddenly emitted a dripping alarm, and as soon as Qi Jingwen looked up, he immediately saw several flashing light spots on the radar screen.
Before he could count how many targets the radar had found, the sound suddenly became extremely fast, there were only a few light points on the screen one moment, and the dense light spots in the next second had occupied half of the screen!
Qi Jingwen's eyes widened suddenly, and he lifted the top cover and got out of the car.
Beneath the lead clouds, a swarm of giant insects rose against the wind, flapping their wings and flying into the sky, a low buzzing sound heard from a distance, as if a swarm of planes were passing low in the air.
Qi Jingwen immediately retracted into the car and roared loudly over the radio: "Enemy attack, fire smoke bombs, laser cannon fireโ"
At the sound of the order, all the armored vehicles immediately threw smoke bombs, and the smoke around the camp dispersed, quickly enveloping a large area of jungle.
The twelve self-propelled laser anti-aircraft cannons that accompanied the team were immediately activated, and the cannon pot was aimed at the flying insects in the air, and the Dao laser pierced the sky in an instant, and each laser flashed, and a flying insect fell.
The light defense gun is a new equipment that was sent to Duluo Island only a few days ago, and it is equipped with a low-power laser cannon on the chassis of a light armored vehicle, which has a long range and fast reaction speed, and is the most ideal field air defense weapon.
Since the beam can only shoot directly, this laser cannon is mainly used for air defense, and of course it can also shoot at ground targets if the conditions are right.
Before being equipped with light defense artillery, the landing force could only operate on the outskirts of Dulo Island, and in any case could not break away from the cover of the fleet; After the light defense artillery arrived at Duluo Island, the landing force immediately moved into the depths of Duluo Island.
was able to capture most of Duluo Island in such a short period of time, and the light defense artillery contributed a lot.
But today is different from the past, the clouds are so low that flying insects can rush into the dark clouds with a few flaps of their wings, use the clouds to cover themselves, and the clouds can also block the laser, killing two birds with one stone!
