Chapter 356: The enemy advances and I retreat
Major General Shrek, as the supreme commander of the counterattack, discovered the movement of a large force of the Wanluo Federation from the reconnaissance of the Shadow Kill Force (a special force established by the mother base with N Stiletto).
From the reconnaissance report, Major General Shrek also deduced the purpose of the transfer of the large forces of the Wanluo Federation.
Major General Shrek also mobilized his troops.
Colony Satellite No. 70 of the Federation of Vanna.
The Van Luo Federation dispatched two military-class fleets to attack a brigade-level fleet of the Skywing Mercenary Regiment, which had captured Colonial Satellite No. 71 a few days earlier.
At the moment, the Wanluo Federation only wanted to win by quantity, and decided to win the opponent with a number that was 5 times higher than the opponent's.
In addition to the two military-class fleets, other fleets came to support one after another.
The commander of the brigade fleet that captured Colony Satellite 71, the flagship used an ultra-long-range camera to spot the massive fleet of the Wanluo Federation coming towards them.
The commander was very confident in the strength of his own Tianyi mercenaries, but when he estimated that the number of opponents was at least five times more than theirs.
He didn't think that the sheer number of their brigade fleet alone would be able to defeat an enemy force more than five times their size.
It just so happened that instructions came from the superiors, and the commander received instructions from the superiors to abandon colonial satellite No. 71 and retreat.
The commander immediately ordered the entire army to withdraw to Colonial Satellite No. 72.
The commander of the 2 armies of the Vanro Federation, seeing the target retreating, found that the route of the retreat was towards Colonial Satellite 72.
The commanders of the 2 corps-level fleets immediately reported to their superiors.
Powell and the other staff officers, having received the information about the retreat of the target, left the two armies in place and waited for the other forces to converge.
After joining the rest of the troops, head towards Colonial Satellite 72.
Two fleets remained in place, followed by one more fleet to join up with two more fleets.
Then, 3 corps-class fleets were temporarily combined into 1 small army fleet, and the commander of the small army fleet was commanded by a black rear admiral named Yoni.
Rear Admiral Yoni was given some authorization to go to Colonial Satellite 71 to reclaim the lost territory, and if the target counterattacked, Rear Admiral Yoni had absolute command to conduct all military operations and command.
However, if the target does not make any action and instead adopts a retreat strategy, Major General Yoni must consult his superiors.
The name of the small group army at the moment is [Revenge Eagle Force], and the first small army of the Revenge Eagle is referred to as [Revenge Eagle]
The 1st Small Army of the Eagle entered Colonial Satellite 71 and found that the Skywing Mercenary Regiment had abandoned Colonial Satellite 71.
Major General Yoni asked his superiors for instructions.
Powell and many generals and staff officers looked at the current three-dimensional map, and watched the Skywing mercenary group abandon another colonial satellite.
Then came the news from the Ministry of Intelligence that the 72nd, 73rd and 74th colony satellites, the Skywing Mercenary Regiment, had also given up.
These fleets of Skywing mercenaries who had abandoned their colony satellites all retreated in different directions.
Powell and the generals and staff officers made inferences and discussions.
The conclusions reached and the information they had, these Skywing mercenary fleets retreating in different directions, they were all following the commanders of their own sub-bases, and there was no unified action at all.
In addition to asking the first small army of Qiu Ying to take back the 72nd colonial satellite, the other troops took back the 73rd and 74th colonial satellites, and then asked the other troops to gather in these colonial satellites.
The 73 and 74 colonies also gathered large forces to form small army groups.
The former is the 2nd Eagle Army, and the latter is the 3rd Eagle Army.
After learning that many of the lost colonial satellites had been recovered without a single soldier, Purvi was extremely excited to trumpet his wise decision on his online books.
"My dear compatriots of the Wanluo Federation, look at our great and heroic Wanluo Federation soldiers, the evil Tianyi Mercenary Regiment, under the mighty battle of the Wanluo Federation soldiers of our righteous division, they have become afraid, they have begun to retreat one after another, cheer for our great victory."
The media of the Vanla Federation, whether supporting the opposition parties or the ruling party, are propagating that the country's military is in full swing to reclaim the lost colonial satellites.
There are even domestic media reporters who went to the recovered colonial satellite to interview the people, under special arrangements.
The local people took a group photo with the soldiers, and even arranged lines for the people to tell how evil the Skywing Mercenary Regiment was, how righteous and great their own soldiers were, and how they bravely resisted the enemy.
Regarding the media propaganda of the Wanluo Federation, the war correspondents who were responsible for filming were very dismissive, and the viewers who watched the live broadcast of the war correspondents were also very disdainful.
Because they all knew that the Tianyi Mercenary Regiment did not fight them at all, but retreated on their own.
Many people understand that the main reason why the Skywing mercenary group does not fight each other is that there are too many opponents than them.
The choice of the Skywing mercenary group not to fight, but to retreat, was a wise decision.
Major General Shrek commanded the order to retreat, not to engage the enemy's large forces, and adopted the tactics of the enemy advancing and retreating, concentrating troops as much as possible and shortening the supply lines.
No anti-theft
In addition to the above, Major General Shrek has other plans.
The 75th, 76th, and 77th Colonial Satellites Skywing Mercenary Regiment also gave up, and gave these occupied colonial satellites to the Wanluo Federation forces.
The news sent a coke blossom to Teplevi and the senior ministers, who reported their victory for several days on end, and celebrated with champagne almost every day.
Powell and the generals and staff officers had different views on the current situation, and at this moment they found that the other party's purpose was to shorten the supply line and prepare for a hard battle with them.
And they also discovered that the 78th ~ 80th colonial satellite, the opposing side's troops have gathered more and more.
Judging from the three-dimensional map, they found that the size of the Tianyi Mercenary Group's troops reached 2/3 of theirs.
From the information received, it is known that no direct troops of the leaders of the Skywing Group are present in these colonial satellites.
This made the generals feel that something was wrong, they had already realized that the Tianyi mercenary troops who were unwilling to fight them at that time must have other purposes if they were unwilling to fight more with less.
It's just that it's a little late now.
Then came the news from the intelligence services that some of their supply lines and logistics bases had been ambushed and attacked.
Powell and his staff felt the slightest bit uncomfortable, they were fighting within the country, the supply lines were short, and the movement of troops could be relatively fast.
However, once the logistics required for these manufacturing such as logistics bases are destroyed, their operations and dispatch will also be affected.
Now in charge of transporting logistics and protecting the logistics base, it is the reservists who are used at the moment.
At present, if they suffer defeat, once the active duty soldiers suffer heavy casualties, I am afraid that even the reservists will have to play.
