Chapter 16: Waiver

After Giacomo's order, Ren Di was not stupid enough to openly oppose disobedience, despite his reluctance. And this time the leader of the vanguard is Andrew, and Ren Di is not qualified to compete with him for this position. Because Ren Di made a lot of feats on the Dilsey Plains, but when they were around the fort to support friendly fire, the artillery was destroyed and the infantry occupied. Ren Di, who commanded artillery alone, was not as skilled as Andrew in terms of combat experience in commanding troops independently. On the Plains of Dilsey, Andrew experienced a variety of small encounters, offensive and defensive battles, troop movements, evacuations, offensives, and independent operations were his strengths. Ren Di does not have this ability in this regard.

It's like a soldier of the Second Artillery Corps, who has no ability to compete with special forces for infiltration combat skills.

Just like the protagonists of many fantasy novels that Ren Di has read, they all have a simple personality and a special talent in a certain aspect. Ren Di does not reject being a younger brother, and follows those who have the ability to drink soup and eat meat. All conspiracies and tricks, there is a scheming big brother to help him block.

But now it's hard to find such a capable and responsible big brother. Inoue was Japanese, and Ren Di understood that the basis for maintaining a good relationship with him was because he was capable of artillery, not because he had met a Japanese who had internationalism and repentance for China.

Andrew is Anglo-American, an American elite who sits ass with white people. This guy pulled Ren Di into this task this time, not to be kind enough to learn and make progress together with Ren Di, but to limit the possibility of Ren Di continuing to gain combat merits on this battlefield that is not suitable for artillery. As a veteran fritter who has been in the multiracial forces of the United States for many years, he knows very well how to keep the command of the army firmly in the hands of the commander's tacit crowd. Because the entire army is a complex system, it is impossible for anyone to be familiar with every aspect. It is enough to assign a job to the person who is being suppressed that he is not familiar with. This seemingly fair and quiet suppression is very effective, so the generals of the front-line command army of the US imperialists cannot see the faces of the Chinese, and the few Chinese generals who have been awarded the rank of general are mostly in the areas of intelligence, logistics, and military courts. There have been no Chinese Americans who have commanded the U.S. military in the front line since World War II.

The protagonist of this world plot does not know the situation between the traversers. Ren Di can now be said to have bitterness as Andrew's deputy. There is only one voice in the army. Andrew, who is the leader of the vanguard army, can suppress everyone in the army. If Inoue hadn't been able to pull in, Andrew would have been the dominant force of the entire crossing team again.

Now the crossing team is divided into two parts, Andrew personally picks people, one black, two whites, Ren Di, and the thousand villages of Johor Bahru are in the team to attack the cliffs of Fliglo. His choice created a situation where he was the main commander of the team and the two white traversers were his hardcore. That remnant of the black man was also within his solidarity. As for the young man in Johor Bahru Thousand Villages, he has right-wing ideas, and Ren Di is crushed to death.

Among the main army that followed Giacomo to the north, there were only three traversers, one was Vasiles, the white traverser who seemed to have a talent for helping to command, and the other two were Li Cuncheng and Inoue Ohno. Without Ren Di as a buffer, it was good enough for Li Cuncheng not to make trouble for Inoue. As for Vasirez, there will be a good external environment.

This division, through the ranks, the crisis of the white bloc no longer exists.

This interpersonal relationship did not react until after the departure of the vanguard legion. If he hadn't been a victim of this manipulation technique, Ren Di couldn't help but high-five and sigh. In the future, whoever wants to say that foreigners are pure and Chinese are treacherous, Ren Di will definitely hand them over to lawyers, politicians, and foreign elites who study legal management to experience this kind of pure goodness.

The Cliffs of Fliglo, the territory controlled by the industrial power of Vancy Hillary. The terrain here is steep, different from the terrain of the peaks of Pyrata. The terrain here is like a very steep staircase. It is divided into five levels, with one plateau on top of the other. The edge of each floor is very different, like a staircase, and each staircase has a city on a narrow plane. Cilly's capital is right on the highest plateau steps. On the steps below, rows of turrets were stationed.

In the words of Lianlana in the game's plot: "I never thought of attacking Vliglo, and the air defense here is the strongest in the whole of Van Xi. "The combat airship climbs a plateau staircase at the bottom layer, and it must fill the airship with layers of airbags, and then carry a lot of ballast weights, and must lose a layer of ballast load before crossing a layer of steps. On each step over the stairs, you will encounter a defensive artillery attack from the ascending steps of the plateau.

Turrets stood on top of the cliffs, an extremely defendable and difficult area to attack, and had it not been for the fact that Hilary's main army had it not been for the exhaustion of Dilsey's army. You can't take it here.

Look up at the plateau jutting out into the clouds in the distance. Ren Di sighed. On the lowest steps of this strange rock, the vanguard has taken a small city-state. Through this city-state, the population was rallied and troops were trained to resist the repeated attacks of troops thrown from Hilary on the plateau.

Just in the morning battle, three turrets on the eastern defensive front had already been captured. At the operational meeting, Andrew blamed all the blame for Ren Di's poor artillery support, and split the two artillery crews that Ren Di had brought with him.

Andrew's angry expression in the morning was not pretended, Andrew himself was trapped, and Cilary was joking, this time fighting for the purpose of holding on to help. It's an uphill battle. In the face of Cillary's superior forces, Andrew's locally recruited troops retreated three times, and the brutal repression of military law made the gallows full. Military law has a certain restraining effect, but it does not mean that the military is governed by military law. The current army has reached its limit. If you don't see the disappointment of victory again, colonization that relies on military law will be a death anyway. will retaliate with a mentality of revenge.

At first, Ren Di gloated for a few minutes in this situation, but then Andrew's methods made Ren Di understand that he was now Cao Cao's grain officer. Andrew had to find a reason for the army's defeat, a scapegoat to explain the reason for the defeat. This scapegoat is of a high rank, enough to dispel the doubts and anger of the local colonial army. Who else is there in this place besides Ren Di as Andrew's deputy.

At that meeting, Ren Di wanted to have a seizure, but after thinking about it and calming down, Andrew shirked the responsibility to divert the hatred of the local colonial army. The hatred of the native colonial army Unless the entire army is completely defeated, Ren Di is safe. If Andrew is given an excuse for disobeying orders, then it gives Andrew a reason to explain all the failures above.

"Smack" Ren Di slammed the wrench in his hand on the stone, and the steel and the rock collided, bringing out a little spark. Ren Di scolded softly: "If there is a chance to choose in the future, Lao Tzu will never cooperate with Baipi in anything in the future."

This situation is very aggrieved, knowing that Andrew is suppressing himself, and he has to help him. On this broken boat, Andrew is ready to push Ren Di into the water at any time, and Ren Di resists and wins, and the leaky boat will leak and sink. If it weren't for Miana's strength, Hilary and Governor Venucci would have been defeated, and Ren Di had thought about whether he would take the initiative to surrender to the past, but of course this was just a thought. Venucci had no chance of victory, and as long as the main Miana arrived, Hilary would be defeated.

The victory or defeat of the vanguard army served the purpose of the battle for Miana. Because during the time when the vanguard was in the cliffs of Fliglo, Cillain's army did not have the opportunity to fully cultivate their body and mind to build a defensive system.

Ren Di picked up the tool and worked on a small steel barrel on the lathe, the innate force field that can soften any material opened, and the steel softened by the force field encountered the hard lathe blade and dropped a piece of wire.

The world was in the period of the first industrial revolution, electricity appeared in direct current, cavalry was still on the battlefield, and infantry fought in line with courage and discipline. The general war has not yet been carried out, and the two glorious world wars like the one on earth have not yet been triggered. So some weapons have not yet appeared. Miana has a class called the Elite Royal Grenadier, which is more difficult to train than the infantry. First of all, they threw at a distance of twenty-five meters, often risking enemy fire# guns or grenades# in the face of cavalry charges.

Heavy artillery units are too slow to move in the current mountainous environment. Such an earth-level antique-level equipment half a meter long and composed of two parts of a cylinder bracket appeared in Ren Di's hand.

Grenadier canisters. Ren Di's production of this half-mechanical enthusiast is currently imperfect, and there is no gunpowder gas unloading outlet. It is purely a device that can only throw grenade # bullets far away. In order to complete this thing, Ren Di also consulted the real Japanese Niyama Senmura.

Well, a sycophant was patted down, praising the excellence of Japanese electronics and other industries, this right-wing young man showed a hint of smugness on his face, and the conversation began, but this guy is also an expert on paper, and he can talk a little bit about Japan's Type 10 tanks, Aegis battleships, etc., but the weapons of the old Imperial Japanese Army that he admires only remember weapons such as the Yamato Phoenix aircraft carrier. For the specific structural design of the grenadier canister, this product is not much better than Ren Di.

In the face of Ren Di's inquiry, Xinshan Qiancun said embarrassedly: "Advanced automatic weapons have appeared, and who understands this outdated weapon of the old era so clearly." ”

"Well, it seems like I'm not the only one on paper." Ren Di didn't want to complain. Fortunately, the technical content of this thing is not high, as long as the design idea is roughly right, the performance is not good. After Ren Di's description, and under the leadership of the attempt to produce, under the world's qualified steel quality assurance, this batch of throwing weapons with a range of 100 meters to 80 meters was produced in the small arms arsenal......

"This thing works," Andrew asked Ren Di with a skeptical tone. Ren Di spread his hands and said, "When you fight mountain warfare, you should be a gun, grenade, and bazooka." It's a pity that these two high-tech points can't come out. Andrew said: "I will experiment with these weapons in actual combat." ”

Ren Di said: "As a manufacturer, I feel that I should be in command of the army to experiment. Andrew said with a grim face, "Go back to where you should be." This time, Ren Di did not flinch: "I have the qualifications to command three combat teams independently." I was given the order to support you. Andrew said in a cold tone: "You don't obey the command, you can't afford to take responsibility for the defeat of this battle." ”

Ren Di did not back down as Andrew imagined this time. Ren Di said: "According to military law, non-military court trials, you do not have the right to arbitrarily appoint and dismiss officers of the same rank as you. Andrew's tone softened a little and said, "Heavy weapons such as steam cannons still need your command. Ren Di said: "The heavy artillery in this battle is inconvenient to move. I think you might be able to do it better. ”

When Ren Di finished saying the word direct, Andrew's eyelids jumped. In the final analysis, so far, in the process of holding on to the cliffs of Fliglo, Ren Di has been very cooperative with Andrew, and the artillery support has done a very good job. There is no difference from direct reporting. This is also the original intention of Carliniggiacomo to transfer Rendi to the vanguard corps, and at Andrew's request, to give him the best artillery.

Andrew always thought that Ren Di would not give up the right to command the artillery, but this time Andrew did not find out Ren Di's character, and made it difficult again and again, Ren Di finally gave up.

That night, in front of the surprised eyes of the logistics officer, Ren Di handed over the artillery equipment and received three squads with a total of 270 troops and a team of mechanized soldiers from the colonial army training camp. The logistics officer said to Andrew, who had a cold face: "It will take two and a half months for our support troops to arrive, and we have limited logistics now. Do you agree with Second Lieutenant Ren Di commanding the infantry? Ren Di smiled and said: "Yesterday I had a disagreement with Commander Andrew, and I think that heavy artillery has lost its role in the mountains and should be abandoned. Support more useful troops with limited logistics. ”

The logistics officer frowned and said to Andrew: "Second Lieutenant Andrew, you asked the artillery to accompany you at the beginning, do you think so?" Andrew said: "I think there is still a need to keep the heavy artillery unit. The logistics officer said: "In this case, then the logistics consumption of twenty guns will be hung in your name." I have no authority to inquire into the front-line command, but I would like to remind you that the logistics of the rest of the force can no longer be expanded. You apply for a mechanical spider formation that must be canceled. ”

As a front-line military commander, he can't command a logistics officer, and the logistics military commander will not allow the emergence of this kind of feudal warlord. The logistics commander supplies the military commander, who directs the front-line troops. When Ren Di decided to let go of the twenty guns and let his logistics spare to support the rest of the troops, Andrew was forced to take over the twenty guns. Because these twenty artillery pieces were sent to the front at his request. If heavy artillery is completely abandoned, then it means that his previous request for the transfer of artillery and excellent artillery officers is useless, and the loss of such abandoned artillery, if he does not stop it, will be credited to him.
