Chapter 291: Lian Zhan

At midnight on February 13, skirmishes broke out in the southern part of Cheongju-si, South Chungcheong Province, Boeun-gun, Okcheon-gun, and Yeongdong-gun.

Although they were only small-scale, the intensity of these battles was extremely high, with almost a dozen villages and towns destroyed and direct economic losses of up to 40 billion won.

It was also in these small-scale battles that the term 'mecha war' appeared on the stage of human history for the first time.

Although mecha units have appeared in several previous battles in Seoul, they are all mecha vs humans, and the scale is not to the point of 'war'.

However, what appeared in the battle in Chungcheongnam-do was a real mecha battle!

In Bao'en County alone, the battle of forty modified elite low-level mecha vs eighty standard primary mecha has already made the viewing countries feel the intensity of Star Wars.

It was at this moment that countries were surprised to find that the [Future Warrior Era], which has been highly respected by them in recent years, has actually begun to appear in Koreans!

There is no doubt that mecha combat is indeed an excellent method to form the strongest combat effectiveness in a short period of time, and mecha combat is also very suitable for ordinary army combat, but its two major shortcomings cannot be concealed.

The amount of money spent on development and research is so great that it takes to equip an army is enough to collapse a country's finances; It is easy to form large-scale combat power, but the growth is almost none, and the power that can be exerted is limited to mecha assembly weapons, and it is difficult to achieve the strength growth rate of the strong developed by itself.

But I have to admit that to a certain extent, Koreans are indeed ahead of human history.

It's just that it remains to be seen how long this lead will last.

At nine o'clock in the morning on February 14, the South Korean T camp once again launched an attack on the first line of defense of CT.

This time the casualties paid by T were even more miserable, it seems that yesterday's evasive defeat angered the commander-in-chief of T, and this time the convoys of the T camp attacked with a broken attitude, blowing up the roads behind them all the way. If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent.

It's a pity that they all fell in front of the first line of defense of the CT, and despite the frequent attacks from the anti-slurry shots and metal players, they couldn't stop the bombardment of the metal storm that had formed into a formation.

this day. The offensive of the South Korean T camp was declared a failure, and the number of dead and wounded was as high as 2,000...... Moreover, most of the 2,000 people were swept into the space turbulence after being destroyed by vehicles equipped with space technology.

There are no dead bodies.

Same. South Korea's CT action has also begun to grow, and the number of metal storms on the first line of defense has increased exponentially, and for this alone, South Korea has borrowed $30 billion from the United States!

In fact, Metal Storm is not very practical, and many of its problems are very limited, which makes Metal Storm a chicken rib that simply cannot appear in modern warfare before the emergence of the strongest anti-terrorist games. For players, however, many of Metal Storm's existential issues have been resolved. With the strength of the South Korean CT camp, as long as T does not break through the defense, they can guarantee that Metal Storm will not take any damage! (For example, covered fire strikes, fixed-point missiles, etc., the T camp can withstand missiles, and the CT can naturally do it.) )

On the other hand, a new group of troops from the South Korean side began to cross Gyeonggi Province into North Chungcheong-do, and continued to advance in the direction of Cheongju City, casually entering the southern region, and at the same time, these soldiers were also burdened with orders to defend the three counties of Boeun, Yeongdong, and Okcheon.

The harassing attack on the T side at this location convinced the CT command that the T side had not yet seen the importance of the place. At present, it is in a difficult state.

From 15 to 17 February, fighting continued on both sides, including the first line of defense of the CT side and the southern part of North Chungcheong-do. However, the whole world that is watching South Korea can feel that there is a storm condensing under the seemingly calm surface of the war situation at this moment.

Sure enough, in the early morning of February 18, a piece of news shocked the world!

The only remaining naval base after the appearance of the strongest anti-terrorist game in Pyeongtaek and Donghae, South Korea, was destroyed overnight!

Counting the three major naval bases of Supo, Busan, and Jinhae, which were originally abandoned after being occupied by the T side, South Korea completely lost its naval combat power overnight!

It wasn't until this moment that people suddenly realized that the player's power had really reached the point of destroying the country! Two naval bases, the coastal defense of one country, but they were easily erased, does this mean that the world will lose the word 'sea power' from now on!?

The original land battle was no more ferocious. Even if a city is destroyed, the world has never really thought about the possibility of the player destroying the country. But now it's a reality. The T forces of a country are not terrible, what is terrible is that the T forces betray their own country but collude with the enemy country! Once so. Coastal defense and air defense, how fragile are these two defense forces that cannot be jumped by modern warfare in front of players? If the powerful player forces really collude with the enemy country, does it mean that no amount of soldiers can prevent the country from being destroyed except for the CT forces of the country?

A small war, but it shocked the world.

On the morning of 18 February, two T-elite forces landed on the land side of the CT from the east and west coasts, and after a disturbance in the two coastal cities, the two T-elite groups disappeared into thin air.

After turning into darkness, the CT side must be more cautious!

The naval base was destroyed, the naval forces that had been dispatched were lost, and the CT side had to shift the focus of the battle to the land.

Fortunately for the CT command, they still maintained a favorable situation between the first line of defense and the southern part of Chungcheongbuk-do, and as long as the first line of defense continued to block the enemy's forces, and when the T side was weak, the CT side could invade the hinterland of the T forces from the southern part of Chungcheongbuk-do.

However, this did not last long.

At 22 o'clock on the evening of February 18, information came from the southern part of North Chungcheong Province that the 5,000 CT garrisons in Okcheon County and Yeongdong County and the local T forces had been wiped out, and only an elite group of about 500 people was constantly hiding in the mountains and forests of the southern part of Chungcheongbuk-do Province to avoid the pursuit of the T forces.

Judging from the information fed back, this attack by the T force was not too premeditated, and it was the same as before, with a few people and dozens of people fighting raids and harassment. However, the T forces did not meet with the CT garrison before, but this time I don't know if the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, and they accidentally discovered the shadow of the CT army, so they organized several surrounding T commandos to carry out a secret attack. The CT side was caught off guard, which caused the latter to suffer heavy losses.

To the relief of the CT command, the T side seems to be underprepared for this covert attack. After the siege and assassination attack, the 500-strong CT elite group that suddenly appeared was not well prepared, and it was too late to contact the rear forces after being hastily repulsed. Escaped into the mountains and forests by the CT elite group.

However, this still could not change the situation that the CT elite group was besieged in the mountains and forests around Okcheon County and Yeongdong County, fortunately, the bandit forces in Boeun County were not too strong and did not pose a real threat to Boeun County, and the bandits in Cheongju City did not gain anything because the front and back attacks of Cheongju City and Cheongwon County could not pose much threat to Cheongju City, which meant that the CT support force could enter the south of Chungcheongbuk-do Province relatively smoothly.

Therefore, the CT command immediately ordered to send an additional 2,000-strong mecha legion, a 5,000-strong player team, and a combined force of 20,000 military and police officers to march towards Wocheon County and Yongtong County.

Their purpose is not only to rescue the elite group of 500 people, but more importantly, to recapture the two counties of Yongtong and Wochuan!

On 19 February, the T side's offensive against the CT's first line of defence intensified to an unprecedented level, following the initial day. The CT side lost two cities and one county again, and the defensive line was forced to shrink, and the first and second lines of defense were already rapidly bordering.

On the afternoon of the 19th, the support troops marched out of Cheongju City to Cheongwon County, and they were subjected to several waves of strong harassment along the way, but they did not stop their pace, and by the night of the 19th, they had entered the mountainous area in the north of Yeongdong County.

That night, the war resumed, and the CT support units, which had been running for a long time for a day, were subjected to an unprecedented high-intensity attack, first encountering intensive bombardment by the T missile unit. In the case of strong interference props, the CT reinforcements have actually disappeared in the eyes of T, but T is bombing an entire mountainous area. Such a covering blow can naturally spread to the CT department.

Under the high-intensity bombardment that lasted for more than an hour, the four mountains were flattened, the woodland with a radius of more than 70 kilometers was completely burned, 20,000 combined military and police troops were reduced to flying ashes, more than 3,500 ordinary players died without corpses, and half of the mecha corps of 2,000 people was also destroyed, and most of the remaining half were broken through the energy defense layer!

Even the sky was covered with black clouds, and the forest had become a place of dead ashes where half of one's body was sunk by one foot.

The CT reinforcements, who had suffered heavy losses, had not yet woken up from the bombardment, and an elite mecha corps of nearly a thousand people came over from all directions. A big battle ended with the CT Mecha Corps escaping more than 300 people, and the losses of the T side did not exceed a hundred. Annihilation of all remaining troops.

The outcome of this battle was unexpected by the CT side!

The main thing is that the first wave of missile bombardment was something they never thought of...... Because in their own country, no matter how far the civil war goes. The CT side will never take the initiative to think of such a thing as a massive missile bombardment (it doesn't matter if you intercept the T assault convoy, it will only destroy a few sections of highways). It is precisely because they did not expect that they would bombard the entire mountain forest with missiles covering them.

After all, nominally, it is still the land of mountains and rivers of the Republic of Korea, but in fact it is also occupied territory, and with such intensive bombing on its own territory, are you not afraid that a mountain fire will burn the entire southern part of Korea?

On the 20th, after learning that the remaining troops after the two attacks had gathered and withdrawn into Bao'en County, the CT side did not hesitate to activate the missile system, and dozens of US 'Pygmy 4' strategic missiles covered most of the southern mountainous areas, and without deliberate evasion, more than 30 villages and towns were devastated, and more than 40,000 ordinary South Korean people died under this level of firepower.

I don't know if it was because of this kind of bombardment that wiped out the elite mecha regiment of the T camp, on the morning of the 21st, the suicide-like frenzied attack of the T camp completely destroyed the first line of defense of the CT side, and more than 13 cities and counties were plunged into chaos, including Jincheon-gun and Danyang-gun in Chungcheongbuk-do. Except for the players who left more than 2,000 men behind, the whole team began to shrink, and the whole army retreated behind the second line of defense. However, in Chungcheongbuk-do, there was still a line from Jeongpyeong-gun and Hoengsan to the southern part of Chungcheongbuk-do, and Cheongju-si, Cheongwon-gun, and Boeun-gun still did not fall into the hands of the enemy, and the defense forces of these three places were particularly strengthened due to the abandonment of the first line of defense and the contraction of the second line of defense.

Just as the CT command received information that the T side had begun to assemble in the northern part of Chungcheongbuk-do, one of the two T elite detachments that had entered the CT hinterland after the destruction of the naval military base sent a message saying that Kula's whereabouts had been found in Seoul.

After the message was sent, it was intercepted, and although it was not intercepted, it also flowed into the CT party.

This could not help but make the CT command start to think about whether to abandon Chungcheongbuk-do.

However, at this time, they obtained another piece of information, and the T troops actually slowly withdrew the soldiers besieging Chungcheongbuk-do and began to increase troops in the direction of Gyeonggi-do, and the remaining troops were only defending Cheongju and other places, and had no idea of further attack.

This made the CT department deeply worried and a little surprised.

Worried, naturally, because T will inevitably start to raise troops after getting the news of Kula, in order to get Kula as soon as possible. The surprise is that a line to the hinterland of T is preserved, and additional troops can be sent into the hinterland of T at any time to harass and disrupt the attack of the second line of defense on the T side.

The operational meeting was immediately convened, and the South Korean CT side quickly discussed the best solution to the heavy pressure on the T side.

Counterattack!

The counteroffensive naturally refers not to counterattack from the second line of defense, but to send additional manpower into Chungcheongbuk-do, taking advantage of the fact that the whole army on the T side is pressed on the second line of defense and the interior is empty, to occupy the hinterland of T on a large scale in a short period of time with lightning speed, and at the same time send additional manpower into the T General Headquarters of the Daedeok District to assassinate the commander!

The greatest advantage of this is to disturb the morale of the military.

The occupation of the hinterland of T means that once T cannot win this battle, he may face the CT attacking army in the short term and come back with a backhand after capturing the South Korean man; Even if this offensive drags on for a long time, as long as T can't achieve significant results, they will have no place to retreat if they want to; To put it another way, even if the T side finally breaks through the second and third lines of defense, the CT army can enter the already occupied hinterland of T through Chungcheongbuk-do, and the occupied areas of the two sides will immediately be displaced, and T will still be in a state of being flanked...... After all, there are other cities north of Seoul that are under the occupation of the CT side.

Kill three birds with one stone! (To be continued)
