Chapter 655: Battle Plan

The camel said: "Commander-in-chief, tomorrow I will go out with the Third Coalition Army, and with the help of the Fourth and Fifth Coalition Armies from the peaks on both sides, we will definitely break through the defensive positions of the Northern Coalition Army in Bantan State tomorrow and rush into their camp." ”

The mammoth looked at the camel and saw that the camel was confident, and nodded heavily.

At this time, the mountain eagle flew over and said, "Brother, the soldiers are very enthusiastic about fighting, and have proposed many ways to break through the positions of the allied forces in the northern part of Bandan, but I can't make a decision, so I have come to ask you for advice. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Mountain Eagle, you came just in time, and we are also discussing tomorrow's battle plan. Marshal Iguana suggested that the Fourth and Fifth Combined Armies of the Seventh Front Army attack tomorrow from the peaks on the north and south sides, insert themselves directly behind the positions of the allied forces in the northern part of Bandan, and then flank the east and west with our frontal attacking troops. I think this method is better than our simple frontal attack, and you can study it when you come. The mammoth laughed when he saw the mountain eagle coming.

"Hahaha, we thought of it together. The First Front Army has also proposed a three-sided attack, and since you also have this understanding, then we will plan it together. My idea was that the First Front would send two coalition armies to attack from the northern peaks, the Seventh Front would send two coalition armies to attack from the southern peaks, and the other six coalition armies of our two fronts would attack from the front. In this way, there should be no problem in advancing in three directions and breaking through the defensive positions of the coalition forces in the northern part of Bandan, right? Shanying said.

"Good! The Shanying brothers' method is very complete, and I agree with it, and our Seventh Front Army will strictly implement it. Mammoth said.

"Commander-in-Chief of the Mountain Eagle, I ask that I be the vanguard of tomorrow's frontal attack, and I will carry the banner of the Mammoth State and fight with the brothers of the First Front Army and the Seventh Front Army." The camel said.

Listening to the camel's request, the mountain eagle pondered for a moment and said, "You are the lord of the mammoth state ordered by the head of the country, so I naturally want to fully support you. However, it is very dangerous to fight in the front, and I need to ensure your safety 100%, otherwise I will be scolded to death by the big brother of the country. In this way, when the official attack is made tomorrow, Brother Elephant will be called to hide on you, and if you encounter unexpected dangers, Brother Elephant will help you solve them. Also, our First Front Army and First Coalition Army are good at group battles, so the First Front Army and the First Coalition Army will follow you forward and ensure your safety. Our current battle is to completely wipe out the Bantan State and establish the Mammoth State, and we must not let our Mammoth State Lord have any problems. ”

When the camel heard this, he said movingly: "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief of the Mountain Eagle!" I will definitely lead the vanguard to break through the defensive positions of the coalition forces in the northern part of Bandan. ”

Mammoth said: "The Third Coalition Army of the Seventh Front Army also followed the actions of the Camel State Lord, and worked closely with the First Coalition Army of the First Front Army to play the prestige of the vanguard team together!" ”

"Yes, follow the commander-in-chief's orders!" Marshal of the Third Coalition Army of the Seventh Front said loudly.

"Well, good! In this case, I thought of a more specific battle arrangement. Tomorrow's attack will be divided into five teams, each consisting of two coalition forces. The first team was the frontal main attack vanguard, led by the lord of the Camel State, assisted by Marshal Hufeng and Marshal Meng, and composed of the First Coalition Army of the First Front Army and the Third Coalition Army of the Seventh Front, which launched an attack from the middle of the coalition positions in the northern part of Bantan State. The second team was the main frontal attack on the left flank, led by Marshal Ma Hao, assisted by Marshal Ma Hu, and composed of the first and second coalition armies of the Seventh Front, attacking from the southern section of the coalition positions in the northern part of Pandan. The third team was the main frontal attack on the right flank, led by Marshal Yangyuan, assisted by Marshal Panshan, and composed of the 4th and 5th Combined Armies of the 1st Front, attacking from the northern section of the coalition positions in Pandan. The fourth team was the main attack team on the southern peak, led by Marshal Hyena and assisted by Marshal Yak Meng, and composed of the 4th and 5th Combined Armies of the Seventh Front Army, which attacked from the southern peak of the allied army position in the northern part of Bandan. The fifth team was the main attack team on the northern peak, led by Marshal Saruyama, assisted by Marshal Houya, and composed of the second and third coalition armies of the First Front, attacking from the northern peak of the allied army position in Bandanbang. The five teams worked in unison, the commander-in-chief of the Mammoth followed the main attack vanguard team, and I reconnoitred and liaised in the air, adjusting the team layout at any time to direct the battle. Do you think this will work? Shanying said in detail.

Hearing Shanying's battle arrangement plan, the marshals and generals of the Seventh Front Army present were all amazed and admired, and secretly admired in their hearts: "No wonder everyone praises the commander-in-chief of the First Front Army of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom as the ever-victorious god of war and the outstanding commander of the Jinshan Divine Kingdom, he is really a genius to be able to come up with such a thorough battle deployment so quickly!" ”

When the lord of the camel state heard this, he worshiped the mountain eagle even more, and said excitedly: "The commander-in-chief of the mountain eagle is really the god of war, and your plan has convinced me and I am excited!" I strongly support it! ”

"Hahaha, Brother Shanying is right, I completely agree!" Mammoth said with a smile.

Several of the other marshals agreed, and were in high spirits, confident that tomorrow's battle would be won.

After the Third Front Army seized the pass city, it sorted out and rebuilt the positions on the north and south peaks according to the arrangement of Guishan, and also strengthened the city wall on the east side of the pass city, and repaired the north and south gates on the east wall to prevent the counterattack of the Bandanbang army.

Huang Ling said: "It is appropriate to build defensive positions on the peaks on both sides and strengthen the city walls, but we now not only have to consider defense, but also need to think about how to rely on Pass City to annihilate the remnants of Bandanbang as soon as possible and stabilize the entire Mammoth State as soon as possible." So, I would now like to ask you to discuss, how exactly are we supposed to crack the last resistance of Bandanbang? ”

After a period of silence, Huang Shan said, "Report to Emperor Ling, I think we should take the initiative to go east out of the pass city and move towards the place where the lord of the Bandan State is located. At present, the 1st Front and the 7th Front Army have eliminated the coalition forces in the eastern part of Bandan, and are actively attacking the positions of the coalition forces in the northern part of Bandan, so that the coalition forces in the northern part of Bandanbang are completely immobile. At this time, the main force of Bandanbang was only the Southern Coalition Army and the Defending Coalition Army, and the overall combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. Therefore, I propose that the Third Front Army move east out of the pass city and launch an attack on the defensive positions being built by the coalition forces defending the city of Bandanbang, gradually depleting the strength of the Bandanbang troops. ”

"According to our reconnaissance, the Bandanbang troops are urgently constructing defensive positions twelve or thirteen miles east of the pass in order to resist the continued offensive of the Third Front. From this, it can be judged that it is not very likely that the Bandanbang team will come to capture the pass city, but they want to block us in front of the fork in the road near the Bandanbang garrison. Therefore, the current practice of the Bandanbang team is mainly to defend and defend, rather than attack and capture. Therefore, we should now take the initiative to attack, and we should take the initiative to attack the defensive positions built by the Bandanbang team and face the main team of Bandanbang! Jin Shan said.

Huang Long said: "I think it is necessary to consolidate the defensive position of Guankou City, this is one of them. Second, the Third Front Army has traveled a long way, and it is necessary to rest a little now. As for continuing to attack the Bandanbang team, I think it can be slowed down a little bit, and don't rush it. At present, there are nearly half a million Bantan soldiers gathered in front of us, and although the Third Front will not be defeated if it advances alone, it will not be able to achieve victory. Therefore, my suggestion is that the Third Front Army first rest and recuperate from the city of Pass, wait for the news of the victory of the First Front Army and the Seventh Front Army, and at the same time reorganize the more than 50,000 officers and men of the Western Coalition Army of Bantan State that they have just received, so that they can be supplemented to the Third Front Army and ensure the number of personnel of the Third Front Army. In addition, it can be seen from this battle of Pass City that it is difficult for the soldiers of Bandanbang to lure them down, and they will be even more stubborn after retreating to the side of the lord of Bandanbang. Therefore, if we want to completely wipe out the Bandanbang team, we must start by killing the Bandanbang lord, if we just fight with the Bandanbang soldiers like now, I'm afraid we won't be able to completely solve the problem! ”

"I agree with Brother Huanglong's opinion, the final destination of this battle of Bandanbang may be to kill the Bandanbang lord, otherwise it will be difficult to completely wipe out the Bandanbang team. Therefore, I suggest that the decapitation operation be carried out as soon as possible to break the psychological dependence of the soldiers of Bandanbang. Kameishi said.

Kameyama said: "I have listened to the views of your brothers, and my proposition is to act synchronously, that is, a combination of decapitation and continuing to attack the Bandanbang team. But how to implement it needs to be carefully considered. At present, the top priority of our Third Front Army is to reorganize the more than 50,000 soldiers of Bandanbang who have surrendered and absorb them into the ranks of the Third Front Army. At present, the number of officers and men of our Third Front Army is less than 500,000, and if all these officers and men of Bandanbang are absorbed, the number of officers and men of the Third Front Army can reach more than 530,000, which can reach the minimum number of 500,000 officers and men, but it is still relatively small compared with the number of officers and men of the First Front Army and the Seventh Front Army. We have already started this work today. ”

Huang Ling listened to everyone's discussion, thought for a while, and said: "It is indeed necessary to launch a new offensive while the Bandanbang team has just begun to build defensive positions, but considering the actual situation of the Third Front Army, especially when our number of soldiers does not occupy an absolute advantage, although the opportunity is very good, it can only be regarded as a double-edged sword for us. Therefore, I agree with the Huanglong brothers' proposition, first take the pass city as a foothold, tell the Third Front Army to take a good rest, and reorganize and absorb the soldiers of Bandanbang who surrendered to us into the ranks, increase the number of officers and men of the Third Front Army, and improve the combat effectiveness of the Third Front Army. Secondly, we should also use this time to get to know the command center of the Bantan State Lord, grasp the specific situation, and prepare for the next decapitation operation. Now, I am also gradually feeling that in order to completely wipe out the Bandanbang army, it is necessary to start with the Bandanbang Lord. If we just wipe out the battle team of Bandanbang, but we don't do anything against the Bandanbang lord, it is very likely that we will not be able to completely destroy the Bandanbang team, and we will not be able to completely destroy Bandanbang. The Ruben Divine State that we have just eliminated is a good example, if the Rumen Divine Nation Lord does not die, it is impossible for so many teams of the Ruben Divine State to surrender to us smoothly. I'm afraid this will be the case with Bandanbang, and this experience should be remembered. Well, send a message to the mammoth and the mountain eagle, and tell them to advance steadily, not to rush, not to rush. In addition, the Third Front Army seized the time to rest and reorganize, striving to increase the number of officers and men to the greatest extent. Finally, I would like to invite the Huanglong brothers, the Jinshan brothers, the Huangshan brothers, and all the members of the commando team to go to the sky above the Bandanbang team to investigate, and strive to understand the situation of the Bandanbang team in more detail, find the battle command center of the Bandanbang leader, and make a battle plan. ”
