Chapter 187: Fierce Battle
"Good!" When the general received the communication, he said nothing but this one word. The happy expression was overflowing: "When are you going to start fighting back?" ”
Zhao Li was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the general must be referring to the operation to let him regain the lost territory: "General, the soldiers have just been recruited for less than two months, and they still need to continue training,"
"It's me who is too anxious." After hearing this, the general was also stunned, and then waved his hand: "You arrange it yourself and leave it to you." When you reclaim the edge planet, I'll celebrate you again! ”
"Yes, General!"
The rebels moved quickly, and before Li Mengdie and the others could communicate again, news had already come that the rebels in Acala and Saipan were showing signs of gathering, and the target was the Golden Five-Star Rainforest Mining.
Is this going to be an all-or-nothing bet? Zhao Li looked at the information he had just arrived, and guessed with some malice.
The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and now, Zhao Li is not afraid of any provocation from the rebels. In this situation, the logistics supply was cut off, the military airport was blown up, the jungle terrain, and the heavy weapons could not be deployed, so it could only be a confrontation between people.
The rebels are divided into two routes, and looking at the route, it should be so that Zhao Li can't be distracted by other things, and intends to eliminate Zhao Li's main force in one fell swoop. It is estimated that the rebels also know that Zhao Li currently only has a few thousand "boy scouts" who have just been recruited into the army, and basically has no combat effectiveness at all.
If you don't take this opportunity to eliminate Zhao Li's living force, then give Zhao Li time, and Zhao Li will definitely be able to recover quickly. Originally, what the soldiers of Jin Wuxing looked like, everyone knew what they looked like, and what Zhao Li looked like after he came, and the rebels also knew it. Such a person who is good at training the army to improve morale must not be given time.
However, there is another reason why Zhao Li is not in a hurry. Without the help of air transportation, the rebels came from Acala and Saipan, and they had to rely on their legs to come over, which was by no means a matter of a day or two, and there was time for Zhao Li to arrange calmly.
This time, Li Mengdie and the others are not around, and Kang Hongyuan is not there, and it is estimated that it is unlikely that there will be reinforcements from the people. The Tigers organized and let them fight with the rebels, but Zhao Li was not so sure.
Since the enemy is advancing in separate ways, then divide the way and destroy them. The enemies in the two areas, if the target is in the rainforest mining, Zhao Li guessed, they set off at the same time, but there is a time difference, and the people of Saipan will arrive half a day earlier than Akara's.
This is an opportunity. The composition of the rebels is not all regular troops, it is a miscellaneous collection of local armed forces, and in such a short period of time, it may not be possible to run in a tacit understanding. It's not that Zhao Li despises the enemy and exalts himself, the actual situation should be as Kang Hongyuan expected, even those people in the local armed forces are not necessarily willing to rely on the rebels. It's just that he was controlled by his own leader and had to join.
And Zhao Li's side is different, although the group of Chengren members is equally complicated, but they are united in their hearts. What's more, the rebels have absolutely no advantage, fighting on the ground, which is defending their homeland, and from the starting point of the battle, the two sides are not on the same level.
"That's what my plan is! Is anyone unclear? This is the first time Zhao Li has faced a combat meeting without Li Mengdie, Sanders and James. Those who attended the meeting were all those subordinates of Zhao Li before, as well as Wang Lefei, the current commander of the airborne battalion.
"Understood!" Everyone stood up in unison and replied loudly.
"Good, everyone is according to plan, right away!" Zhao Li issued an order loudly. Now I feel like I'm a bit of a soldier, but I still look a little too young. But the people present here, including those who were not present, did not dare to underestimate Zhao Li's young face.
"Yes, sir!" After a neat response, a group of mermaids rushed out, trotting and began to assign tasks. Although it will take some time for the enemy to come, it will take time to choose the place of operation, build positions in advance, and so on. If possible, it is also necessary to train the surname in this area within a day or two.
"What, something?" In the conference room, in addition to Zhao Li, there was another person who stayed. It was Wang Lefei, the battalion commander of the airborne battalion. Zhao Li raised his head, looked at Wang Lefei, who wanted to speak and stopped, and asked.
"Sir, I would like to know, what are the combat missions of our battalion?" When Wang Lefei saw Zhao Li asking him, he puffed up his chest and asked loudly.
When the task was just assigned, almost all of them had detailed tasks, from the side attack to the front and even outflanking the back, only for Wang Lefei's airborne battalion, Zhao Li did not make any deployment. Such an arrangement made Wang Lefei very dissatisfied, and he especially went down to ask Zhao Li.
"Your battalion has no combat mission." Zhao Li looked at the soldier who was older than himself on the other side, and his temporary captain rank didn't add up to five days in total, and he faced such a war: "Last time, your battalion suffered relatively large casualties, and the main task at present is to have a good rest." ”
"Sir, all of our battalions are formally trained soldiers, and in terms of combat effectiveness, I can guarantee that they are no worse than any battalion." Wang Lefei stood in front of Zhao Li, striving to get a little combat mission: "We have rested long enough, and the soldiers also need to fight to redeem the shame of our previous defeat." ”
Wang Lefei bluntly said the previous shame, very serious, Zhao Li looked at him, but seemed to have a little doubt, and asked hesitantly: "Is it really possible?" I don't want to run into the same enemy army when I go to the battlefield and do the same thing again. ”
These words are a bit insulting to the soldiers in front of him. Wang Lefei had already clenched his teeth, and from Zhao Li's side, he could see that he was chewing his muscles hard, and he could even hear the slight friction sound of his teeth clenching. It doesn't matter if you are humiliated once, the important thing is that even the commander has lost confidence in you.
"The 392nd Airborne Regiment will never repeat the mistake of the last time, please give us a chance!" Wang Lefei almost shouted such words in a roaring way, his body was stretched into a straight line because of his exertion, and his eyes looked straight at Zhao Li.
"W, is this a war?" Zhao Li is still unmoved, and the kind of unease on the surface can make people see it in his bones at a glance.
"Yes, sir, on behalf of the 392nd Airborne Regiment, no, the 392nd Battalion asks for battle, please approve it!" Wang Lefei said the 392 Regiment again, and then he remembered that this airborne regiment had been revoked, and what existed now was only a battalion under the Reading Regiment, but Wang Lefei naturally became the 392 Battalion.
"Really?" Zhao Li bit his lip and looked at Wang Lefei with a disbelieving expression: "Once something goes wrong...... the following words were not said, but everyone knew what he wanted to say.
"The 392nd battalion swears to complete the mission, please give the commander an order!" Wang Lefei shouted out the request for war again. If the whole Reading Regiment attacked, and the 392nd Battalion was huddled here to guard the barracks, that would be the greatest shame.
"Well, then!" Zhao Li finally nodded: "But ......" Zhao Li looked down at the electronic map, which had already marked a lot of things: "However, the frontal combat missions have been arranged, and it is not easy to change people now." ”
Wang Lefei looked at Zhao Li and didn't say a word, since Zhao Li agreed to give them the combat mission, then they must not pick and choose at this time.
"If you are against the rebels in Akara...... Zhao Li raised his head and looked at Wang Lefei: "It's those guys who surrounded and annihilated your whole regiment last time, you ...... Will you have a weak heart? ”
"No, sir!" When Wang Lefei heard this, his eyes were red as if he had suddenly been injected with a high dose of stimulant.
"Good!" Zhao Li nodded appreciatively: "It's good not to be weak." So, there's a task, and you see if you're happy or not? As he spoke, he lowered his head and pointed to a point on the map mountain and began to describe.
On the frontal battlefield, Zhao Li planned to attack with the entire Reading Force Regiment and knock out all the enemies in Saipan. The enemy over there is strong, but the composition is also complicated, Zhao Li wants to kill the enemy in the future while holding his position.
However, the premise is that Saipan's enemies and Akara's rebels cannot join forces, otherwise, Zhao Li's reading force will face an attack by an enemy with almost twice the strength of his own, and it is difficult to say who will destroy whom at that time.
Wang Lefei's mission with their airborne battalion was to flank Zhao Li's sniper position, keep Akara's enemies out and ensure that they would not be allowed to rendezvous. Zhao Li's requirements are not high, at least he has to give eighteen to twenty-four hours to the frontal battlefield.
It sounds simple, but everyone knows how difficult it is for a battalion of more than 400 men to hold off a rebel army of more than 2,000 men. This time, it is not like Zhao Li last time, there is a natural danger to rely on, it is completely a real positional battle.
"The task is difficult, do you have any confidence?" Zhao Li raised his head and asked Wang Lefei.
Wang Lefei had been enthusiastic since he heard that he could fight against the rebels in Akara, but he still suppressed his emotions and calmly listened to Zhao Li's completion of the battle mission. Hearing Zhao Li ask, he stood up again: "392 battalion, swear to complete the task!" ”
"Good!" Zhao Li slapped his palm on the table: "The blocking position of Huangshi Mountain will be handed over to your 392nd battalion!" ”
"Yes, sir!" Wang Lefei stood up and saluted loudly, and then shouted again: "Thank you, sir!" Then, he ran out of the conference room in a puff of smoke and quickly returned to the 392nd Battalion to start arranging tasks.
Looking at Wang Lefei's flying posture, Zhao Li nodded slightly. The reason why the airborne battalion has not been assigned any tasks is because of the terrible combat effectiveness of all of them regular soldiers. Once they share the same hatred and elevate the battle with the enemy to the point of regaining the lost honor, the power that erupts will be crazy that anyone will look at.
The task of stopping the rebels in Akara is, in fact, none other than them. Zhao Li's reading group, in the final analysis, is still a recruit, and if he is in charge, it is estimated that he can withstand the enemy's attack or even counterattack. However, in the task of blocking, it is difficult to find another person who can be competent in command, Li Mengdie and they have not returned, and there is no news, and there is no one available here.
But Zhao Li was still afraid that once these soldiers of the airborne battalion found out that the opponent they were going to block, that is, the guys who surrounded and annihilated them before, would it affect their performance because of the shadow of the last battle. Therefore, some small means had to be used, for example, deliberately ignoring the existence of the airborne battalion, deliberately not assigning tasks to them, deliberately showing a suspicious expression, all of which was aimed at arousing the fighting spirit of the airborne battalion.
The ancient method of agitation, which seems to be equally useful in interstellar warfare. Looking at Wang Lefei's emotions just now, Zhao Li had no doubt that they would definitely complete this task desperately.
Fortunately, the order given by Zhao Li was only to block, that is, to allow them to fight within a certain time and space. As long as the enemy is contained for enough time, Zhao Li's side can complete the content of the tactical arrangement, and then calmly surround Akara's enemies.
Although the terrain this time cannot be compared with the natural hazards last time, it is also a good battlefield suitable for troops to carry out operations. It was arranged in advance, coupled with the morale of the soldiers and the recent training for the surname, Zhao Li's certainty of annihilating the incoming enemy was at least sixty percent or more. If there is a sixty percent certainty that Zhao Li can't make up his mind quickly, then he will never be called a Zhao madman.
"Hit!" The time of the arrangement was just right, and less than a day after it was completed, the enemy appeared in front. With the advantage of waiting for work, Zhao Li would never give up, and as soon as the enemy's vanguard entered half of the firing range, Zhao Li gave the order to open fire.
The most important things that recruits train are aiming and shooting. Because of the tight schedule, even the weapon maintenance was only briefly explained, so that everyone actually did it once. All the time is freed up for shooting and coordination.
After a dense line of gunfire, there was no one standing in the vanguard of the rebels, who were not very numerous.
was ambushed by Zhao Li, and the other party didn't seem to care at all, but felt a little surprised. After all, in this kind of place far away from Zhao Li's nest, it is much better than fighting in the rainforest mining industry. The loss of the vanguard team made the other party confirm Zhao Li's existence, and immediately, a wave of crazy attacks poured over.
The quality of the fighters on both sides, under the difference in terrain, was quickly pulled on a horizontal line. Zhao Li's limit test was not in vain, and in this case, there was still not a single fighter who panicked. The political axe army, which seized the favorable terrain, faced the rebels who rushed up frantically, relying on the terrain, began to shoot calmly.
"Report, Battalion Commander Wang also encountered the enemy!" Less than an hour after the battle began, the communications corps came over to report the latest news.
