Chapter 2: Issuing Combat Missions

In a school in the eastern suburbs of Liushi, here was originally a well-known science and technology university, because there are many students, so the area is also large, the whole school covers an area of more than 600 acres, there are nearly 100 teaching buildings alone, in addition to student dormitories, teacher buildings and teacher dormitories, etc., a total of more than 200 buildings, such a large school, is in the entire Huaxia country can be ranked first, of course, this is before the end of the world, after the end of the world, here has become a paradise for zombies, When the army returned, it became a military base and a refugee settlement

In the center of the school is a small pond where fish can still be seen breathing out of the water, and next to the pond is a six-storey building covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters

On the sixth floor of the building, the original principal's office was full of sand tables and various communication instruments and military supplies for command, at this time there were three people in military uniforms, two people sat at the table looking at the computer and two communication equipment, and another older young man who looked no more than thirty-five years old was wearing a set of military uniforms with general's epaulettes and his back to the door, looking intently at a huge military map hanging on the wall, on which were written a few big characters "Detailed Topographic Map of Liushi", This man was none other than Long Hao, the commander of the Third Army originally stationed in Liushi

A correspondent tore off a piece of paper from the communication instrument and walked quickly behind Long Hao, "General, the military report just sent from the Second Regiment"

Long Hao turned around and took the military newspaper and waved his hand to let the correspondent retreat, and then picked up the military newspaper, the content of this military newspaper was nothing else, it was about the military operation to occupy the center of the square and the detailed action content, after reading the military newspaper, Long Hao thought for a moment, and then looked up at the door, "Someone is coming"

As soon as the words fell, two soldiers walked in from the door, "General"

"Go and call all division-level personnel to come over for a meeting immediately"

"Yes, General," the two soldiers raised their hands and saluted, and immediately turned around and ran out of the door

Long Hao turned around and looked at a conspicuous red circle on the map with his hands behind his back, the place where this circle was drawn was the central square, the speed of the two soldiers was quite fast, and in less than ten minutes before and after, five officers rushed in

Long Hao turned around and glanced at the five people below, then walked to his desk and sat down, and then picked up the military newspaper, "This is a report on the operation of seizing the square just sent by Fan Yundong, the commander of the second regiment, you can take a look"

A middle-aged general standing at the front stepped forward to take the military report and returned to its original position, and the other four generals immediately surrounded it, and soon the five generals quickly finished reading the battle report one by one

"Chief of Staff, what do you think" Long Hao looked at the general who was the leader

The four generals didn't speak, and the general at the head glanced at the military report again and then looked up at Long Hao, "General, in my opinion, this operation is feasible, although it is very difficult, but if it is successful, it will greatly reduce the casualties of our soldiers."

"Hmm" Long Hao nodded noncommittally, and then looked at the middle-aged general standing to the left of the chief of staff, "General Lei, you are the Minister of Logistics, what do you think?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, General Lei glanced at the Chief of Staff, and then stepped forward, "General, I have the same opinion as the Chief of Staff, this action is indeed feasible, but ......."

Seeing General Lei's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Long Hao frowned, "But what, if you have something to say, don't hide it, this is a military meeting"

"Yes" General Lei glanced at the generals who were all waiting for him to speak, thought about it, and then General Lei seemed to have made up his mind to grit his teeth and said, "General, in my opinion, we should withdraw immediately."

In the war, especially when the two sides are exchanging troops, the most taboo thing is to publish this kind of retreat, which is not only to accuse Long Hao, who made this decision, of being wrong, but also to seriously affect the morale of the army, once the morale of the army is shaken, the consequences are unimaginable

Hearing General Lei's words, the four generals all frowned, and Long Hao even squinted his eyes and looked at General Lei with his hands folded, "General Lei, do you remember what I said when you said this before you set out?"

Before saying this, General Lei estimated that he had expected this to happen, and besides, the words had already been spoken, so when facing the eyes of Long Hao and the four generals, General Lei not only did not retreat, but looked directly at Long Hao with his eyes, "Subordinates, remember, last time you said, if you make this kind of remarks again, military law will deal with it, but the subordinates suggested that the soldiers withdraw not because the subordinates are afraid of death, but the subordinates don't want to see all our hundreds of thousands of soldiers buried here."

"The subordinates have a good understanding of this, and if they want to kill, they must be dealt with by the general, but the subordinates still hope that the general can take advantage of the current situation to be in our favor and withdraw his troops and preserve the strength of our army" General Lei's eyes did not dodge in the slightest

"Lei Yin, you" Chief of Staff was angry "coming"

Two soldiers with loaded guns walked in, suddenly Long Hao raised his hand, the two soldiers saw Long Hao's gesture, paused and bowed their heads slightly and turned out, the chief of staff saw Long Hao blocked, and was about to speak but was stopped by Long Hao reaching out

Long Hao leaned back in his chair and looked at General Lei, thought for a while, then got up and walked in front of Lei Yin under the gaze of everyone, at this time Long Hao was not as angry as he imagined, but very gentle, "General Lei, how many years have you followed my father"

Hearing Long Hao's sudden question, General Lei looked at Long Hao with some confusion in his eyes, and after hesitating for a while, he replied, "Twenty-five years, I have followed General Long Lin since he was still a platoon commander."

"Hmm," Long Hao nodded, and said gently, "Uncle Lei, you, like Uncle Li, grew up watching me," Speaking of this, Long Hao glanced at the chief of staff on the side

Hearing Long Hao's words, the chief of staff and Lei Yin glanced at each other, and then General Lei said, "Yes, general"

The other three generals also knew about their relationship for a long time, so no one was surprised, but as soon as they saw Long Hao suddenly talking about the past, they knew that Long Hao might not do anything to Lei Yin

Long Hao said with a look of remembrance: "Yes! I still remember when I was fifteen years old, I stole a grenade from you to play, and I was beaten up by you and Uncle Li, hehe"

After speaking, Long Hao couldn't help but shake his head and smile, but suddenly Long Hao's face changed, and he looked at Lei Yin seriously, "My father told me before he died, you must listen to your and Uncle Li's advice, but military law is ruthless, so I hope you can give me a good reason."

Facing Long Hao's sharp eyes, Lei Yin showed a very serious expression on his face, "General, I told you before I set out on the expedition, if you don't kill Shi Pozhong, you must not send troops, otherwise there will be endless troubles, the second regiment commander's plan of action is good, but no matter what action there is a premise, that is, logistics supply"

The reason that the soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first is known to idiots, and when he heard Lei Yin suddenly talk about logistics, Long Hao frowned, "Is there a problem with our arms?" ”

Lei Yin shook his head, "Not now, General, we have enough ammunition now, enough for the battle of the square, but what about after the square is defeated?" In the event of a problem with the supply of supplies to the rear, and there is no ammunition by then, what will happen to our soldiers? General, do you want to put the lives of the whole army on Shi Potian? ”

Lei Yin's words made Long Hao's brows more heavy, indeed, their current front is like a trilateral with less words below, in addition to the rear, the front and the left and right sides are attacked on three sides, although the three fronts are not very smooth now, but they are still advancing steadily, at most in two days, they can sweep away all the zombies in Liushi and bring Liushi back into the control of humans, but there is a prerequisite for this, that is, there must be no problems with logistics, once there is a problem with logistics, the soldiers in front have no ammunition, If Lei Yin is in charge of the logistics headquarters, Long Hao will definitely not worry about this situation, because Lei Yin is his person, and he knows Lei Yin's person, but now he is the chief logistics officer, but he is another person, who is directly appointed by the central government, and it is the person called Shi Pozhong that Lei Yin said

Long Hao returned to the desk and pulled out a chair and sat down and rubbed his eyebrows, to be honest, he was very disgusted with this person in Shi Pozhong, it stands to reason that the general is the highest commander in the army, and everyone else must obey the dispatch unconditionally, but this Shi Pozhong relies on himself to be appointed by the central government, and often disobeys Long Lin's orders, Long Lin has wanted to deal with him many times, but because he has a backstage above, he has been saved every time, and over time he is even more lawless, and he doesn't even listen to Long Lin's words, Long Hao is even less of a concern, if it is just like this, Long Hao can still bear it, the most important thing is that this Shi Pozhong is a very greedy person, he used to cheat and embezzle military salaries for personal gain when he was in the army, this is what Long Hao is most worried about, because if what Lei Yin said becomes true, then the consequences will be unimaginable

Under everyone's gaze, Long Hao raised his head and looked at Lei Yin, "General Lei, have you found something?" ”

Being asked by Long Hao, Lei Yin's face was a little hesitant, "It's not ....., but"

Before Lei Yin finished speaking, he was interrupted by Long Hao waving his hand, "General Lei, you have to talk about evidence in everything, unless you catch his evidence, we can't touch him now, understand?" ”

This Shi Potian was sent down by the central government, the purpose is to fear that one person in the army will become a huge disaster, if he kills Shi Potian for no reason, it will be the same as independence, this is very clear to Long Lin, Long Hao is also very clear, so although Long Hao wants to replace it, but he still does not dare to act rashly before the evidence is conclusive, although the country has been gone for three months since the outbreak of the apocalypse, and the central government has lost contact, but Long Hao can't guarantee that the central government is still not there, if he kills Shi Potian without authorization, the people in the center appear, Then he will really be charged with treason, and he is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that he will suffer with him along with the soldiers in the army

After thinking for a while, Long Hao finally felt that he should add an insurance, "General Lei, you are also thinking about the soldiers of my whole army, so I don't blame you, but what you said also makes sense, I can't put the lives of the whole army on a villain, in this way, you will return to the base immediately and look at Shi Potian, you must not leave an inch to ensure that our logistics do not have problems, if Shi Potian is a little reckless" Speaking of this, Long Hao's eyes showed murderous intent, and he raised his right hand and slashed across his neck, "Kill"

"This......okay General" General Lei hesitated for a moment, and finally did not persuade again, Long Hao had already decided, and he persuaded again that it was really to encourage the army, and although this method was not the best, Long Hao gave him a lot of power to live and kill, with this power, although he could not guarantee that Shi Potian could listen to him in everything, but at least he could restrain Shi Potian

Long Hao looked at the chief of staff, "Chief of staff, you hand over the command of those soldiers who stayed in the base to General Lei"

The chief of staff nodded, "Yes the general"

After arranging, Long Hao began to get into the focus, "Okay, let's discuss the next move"

Long Hao got up and came to the sand table, the other five generals immediately followed, the sand table was built in imitation of Liushi, on the sand table more than a dozen red five-star red flags stood in an irregular trilateral, this trilateral occupies less than one-fifth of the area of Liushi, and the place outside the flag is full of zombies

"We are running out of time, so I decided to launch a general attack tomorrow" Under everyone's gaze, Long Hao picked up the flag at the front of the trilateral and planted it forward, that place was the central square of Liushi, "Let the third division take the square first, and drive all the zombies to the narrow streets"

Then Long Hao picked up the flags on both sides and pushed them up in a fan, "After that, the 1st and 2nd Divisions on the flanks launched an attack to level the positional battle line with the 3rd Division."

Everyone knew that this was just a grand strategy, and the next step was to get to the point, so they didn't rush to speak

Long Hao picked up the baton and pointed to the flag on the square and looked at one of the generals, this general looked gentle and elegant, like a literati more than like a soldier, "Congratulations, the task of your three divisions in this battle is the most difficult but also the most important, I know that as the vanguard, your three divisions have been under the attack of most of the zombies, and the pressure is very high, but the location of your square is very important, once we take the square, we can divide all the zombies in the entire Liushi, When the time comes, we'll be able to sweep away all the zombies little by little."

The huge number of zombies has always been the biggest advantage, and without this advantage, the combat effectiveness and threat level of zombies will be greatly reduced, and everyone understands this truth

"Rest assured general, my third division will definitely live up to its mission" In the face of such a difficult task, the New Year not only did not have a trace of worry and fear, but showed a smile of laughter

Long Hao is quite familiar with the character and ability of He Nian, Long Hao turned his head to look at the other two generals, these two generals are completely different from He Nian, all of them have a serious face, revealing a steely temperament, "General Jinhui, General Qilan, when the general attack is launched, the third division will face a large number of zombies besieged, so your second and third divisions must arrive at the designated position within five hours to merge with He Nianhui to establish a defensive line to relieve the siege of the third division, remember, you can only advance and not delay, if you are late, The isolated Third Division is likely to be defeated, and once the defense line of the Third Division collapses, the consequences are unimaginable, understand?"

The two division commanders naturally understood this truth

"Don't worry, General, if you can't get to the predetermined location within five hours, I'll see you at Jinhui."

"General, I'm the same, I can't catch up with the predetermined position within five hours, I don't need you to do it, I'm Qilan cut it myself" The two division commanders directly packed the tickets and responded

"Okay" After receiving the assurance of the three generals, Long Hao put away his baton and looked at Lei Yin and the chief of staff with satisfaction, "General Lei, you immediately send someone to transport all the materials to the front line, it will be completed tonight, chief of staff, tomorrow morning you will take 20,000 soldiers from my headquarters to gather mobile support for the first, second and third divisions"

"It's the general," the chief of staff and General Ray nodded

Then Long Hao issued the final combat order, "Everyone, the front-line soldiers will take turns to rest tonight, tomorrow morning the whole army will cook at five o'clock, all the soldiers will be full, no dry food will be allowed, gather at six o'clock to prepare, and launch a general attack at seven o'clock"

"Yes," all five generals raised their right hands

"Alright, let's go down" Long Hao raised his hand and waved back the generals

The five generals saluted and turned around and left the command room quickly, except for the mechanical sound of the two communicators and instruments in the entire command room, only Long Hao was alone in front of the sand table thinking quietly
