Chapter 230. Bunard's invitation III
A calm, from morning to night is like a holiday in the countryside, there is no hustle and bustle, only quiet and leisurely waiting. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Soviets did not attack the next day, and not even half of the Soviets appeared in the mountains for the next four or five days. Only a few helicopters circled the sky in the distance, but they didn't stop too long, and seemed to take a few pictures before leaving the place, and there was no desire to fire rockets or heavy machine gun fire to deter.
Of course, on the edge of this mountainous area, the temporary positions of the Soviets have been dug up. If from the sky, this mountainous area has been surrounded by horizontal and vertical tunnel positions, it seems that the iron-clad tunnels are lined up in the hilly area at the edge of the mountain, countless Soviet soldiers are running back and forth in this tunnel or in and out, the combination of heavy machine guns and light machine guns is also extremely effective, and even in the rear, there are more than a dozen large-caliber mortars are dragging with the Soviet soldiers, and appear in the mortar positions that have been built long ago.
It seems to be quiet, but it is the tense atmosphere of war. Even in the defensive bunkers in the mountains, there has been strict vigilance, and the young men of the Marine Corps are always ready to be at their posts, as long as there is any abnormal situation, they have directly delegated the right to fire to the front line of the captain level, and they can also react in the shortest possible time. And even the support artillery fire in the craters on the periphery of the cave base was always loaded and ready to be activated.
The previous tragic battle has sounded the alarm for them in the cave base, and they have a complete permanent defensive bunker group, and they have also killed nearly 20 people under the attack of the Soviets, which has shown their shortcomings. If it were an ordinary army, without Liszt's golden finger as support, I am afraid that in the surging wave of attacks, the defensive bunkers would have been broken down separately, and finally the surface positions of the entire cave base would have been handed over.
In conventional combat, there is no Goldfinger that can provide a large amount of ammunition at all times, and there is no Goldfinger to recruit soldiers who can maintain a constant morale in the heat of battle. The battle itself was an asymmetrical war, not only the difference in numbers between the Soviets and Liszt, but also the perfect bunker group and firepower network, as well as the timeliness of artillery support, which had also brought the asymmetry between the two sides to a climax in the fierce battle.
This is the main reason why the Soviets did not continue the offensive, fighting in an extremely complex environment, and the logistical pressures that prevented them from using armored forces on a large scale like the plains. Moreover, oil resources are already seriously scarce, and it has become impossible to use the already fuel-starved aviation helicopter units and tactical bomber groups for the sake of Liszt, which is hidden in the mountains and has no military objectives in the strategic or tactical sense.
Now the Soviet troops had to wait for weapons and ammunition from the outposts on the Queen Charlotte Islands, which could only be transported by sea and land, and could only be transported by mountain on the shoulders of the soldiers themselves, so that boxes of bullets and heavy machine guns and light machine guns could be deployed in the temporary tunnel positions in the mountains. There was also the large-caliber mortar, the caliber mortar body was almost a large pile of heavy steel pipes, even if ten strong Soviet soldiers cooperated with each other to carry it, it took three days to finally arrive in the complex mountainous area of the remnants of the Rocky Mountains.
The permanent defensive bunkers built on various hills have made the Soviets feel the deepest pressure, and steel plates are also inserted in the thick reinforced concrete, even tactical bombardment can not destroy these fortifications, except for the use of large-caliber mortars, the use of concussion to stun the personnel inside, then only infantry and machine gun fire, they can not really conquer the surface position of this mountainous area.
The fire network in the rainy night has already terrified the retreating Soviets, and the artillery bombardment that roars at all times and everywhere makes the groups of Soviet infantry who want to attack under the cover of the rainy night, even if they rely on primitive power armor with advanced alien armor technology, still suffer heavy casualties in that dense fire network. Based on the gathering of troops after the battle, they came to the conclusion that they had achieved more than half of the casualties that rarely occurred in the war, and the results of killing the enemy were unknown.
No one dared to continue the attack with determination, not only from the low-level infantry fighters, but even the middle and high-ranking commanders had already lost the courage to continue the attack in front of the well-built bunkers. Without the support of the air force, even with the fire support of large-caliber artillery, they allowed their troops to officially attack, and even given the current tense confrontation between Canada, the United States, and the Soviets, they could no longer tolerate further defeat.
Although the tactical defeat was nothing for the Soviets, the military pressure from the American Federation made it impossible for the Soviets, who had extended their tentacles to North America, to continue to bear the slightest pressure. North America is still the main ground of the United States Federation, especially the United States Federal Army, which is gradually pulling the main force out of Mexico, has turned the territory close to Canada into a complete military administrative area.
Even now, there are already pro-American factions protesting in Canada, especially on Canadian soil, which is not under the jurisdiction of Canada, and even Canada has no right to interfere with the humiliating appearance of the troops on both sides, which has caused some people in Canada to demonstrate. In addition, the scarcity of global energy resources and the global traffic control have made these three countries in North America as dangerous as a powder keg that can be ignited by a spark.
Hundreds of thousands of troops have been deployed in North America, all of them on first-level alert, not only to prepare for defense against an attack, but also to require an active military strike. And on the west coast of the Rocky Mountains, in a mountainous area in the middle of the veins, Liszt and his troops were like outsiders, and they seemed to be a copper pea that was no matter how unsightly, standing there abruptly, and when everyone wanted him to be destroyed, they refused to fall.
However, on the evening of the third day, a Black Hawk helicopter gunship appeared in a hovering position above the mountain, and slowly hovered in the air in the field of vision of a defensive bunker, while the side hatch was opened, and a soldier also wearing a combat uniform similar to the United States Army leaned out halfway, waving a flag in his hand, and the height of the helicopter gradually descended with the shaking of the flag on the gentle hillside below the defensive pillbox.
