"Yes, so we're going to hold there regardless of a qiē. Guarding there choked Dillia's throat, so that he did not dare to rush southwest. Gu Lei said slowly. "The strategic importance of this place is too important for us to afford any risk. The Mavo authorities have dispatched nearly 600 men to garrison Naran. ”

"Just these 600 people? Or are they African militias with low combat capabilities. Lin Rui shook his head with a wry smile, "Now that Dilia has gathered a few thousand people, after a while, there will soon be a large influx of people from the Secret Society, according to the plan we got from the White Glove." The Secret Society's staff will not be less than 1,000. ”

Shogishi frowned, "Once they merge, they will form a fairly powerful force. The local small warlord guerrillas were no match for the entire eastern provinces. The only force behind you can compete with them is the coalition behind you. ”

"Yes, so I can't go, I have to deal with them in the east. And if I'm here, the rest of the petty warlords will still have something to rely on, and if I leave, it'll be a mess here. Gu Lei said slowly.

"What about Mavo's junta, don't the big warlords claim to have more than 100,000 troops?" Jason frowned.

"The so-called 100,000 troops are nothing more than exaggerated propaganda. Mavo claims to be one of the poorest countries in the world, and even those warlords can't afford to maintain a standing army of this size, no matter how much they exploit the people. So most of them were militiamen, and the total number was less than 20,000 at most, and it was the total number of all the warlords added to one qiē. "And some of the warlords have already followed Dilya. The junta now estimates that there are only 10,000 people at most, and that the maximum number that can be directly commanded is a few thousand. ”

"So now we're the main force. Guray shrugged.

"Hey, in my opinion, you might as well take this place down directly, my Highness. Anyway, you have the strength to do it. Jason joked.

"If I want to take this place, I can do it a long time ago, and Mavo has already become my world. But everyone has their own pursuits, and I don't want to do that. Gulei said lightly, "Otherwise, my uncle wouldn't have let Dilya come out to do this." ”

"That's just as well. Shogishi nodded, "But now, you're really the only one who can fight against Dilya." ”

"So you have to help me keep this place. "Ghuray's hand points to the point on the map - Naranr!

"Who do we mean?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Your entire squad and the group of mercenaries who have just completed their training, the total number of people you can directly command is less than two hundred. Guray looked at him and said, "So you have to hurry to Naranr and control the situation there and the six hundred African militia there." The Mavo military has handed over the command of those 600 African militias to us. With these 600 men, it means that your number will be about 800. If the fortifications are built in advance, with these 800 people, they should be able to have the strength to fight. ”

"Two hundred mercenaries who have just learned how to shoot properly, plus six hundred rabble of warlord troops. Are you kidding, Black Panther?" Jason said in surprise, "If that place is really that important, Dillia will even use all his forces to attack Naraner. That is, we may have to deal with thousands of people. If you add the Secret Society, it will be even more difficult to deal with. ”

"We will attack in the eastern provinces. As long as you can lock the gateway to the Capital Region and the South-West Province, then a pocket will be formed that will put the entire opposition led by Dillia into it. All you have to do is tighten the opening of this bag, and this mouth is Naran. Guray looked at them and said, "This is the most direct means to quickly extinguish them." ”

Lin Rui thought for a moment and said, "You want me to block them in Nalan'er, and then you will launch a large-scale attack on them in the Eastern Province. ”

"Yes, this will be a general battle, and the troops on both sides will exceed 10,000. And no matter whether he wins or loses this conference battle, it can put Dillia in a situation where he is unable to fight again. The premise is that you hold Naraner, then this Eastern Conference Battle will be of decisive significance. "You will be the key factor in this great war. ”

Lin Rui was silent for a while and said, "How many resources do I still have available?"

"The army garrisoning Naranr has mobilized some of its heavy firepower, including a 152-caliber heavy artillery company, which will also be under your command. They were armed with Soviet D-20 Type 152-mm cannon howitzers. The quantity is limited, but it is very powerful when used well. The lethality of group targets such as infantry and light vehicles of the opposition forces is still very high. "Guredo.

"That's a defensive advantage. Lin Rui nodded and said, "What about air support?"

"Unfortunately, we don't have any advantage in this area, Mavo doesn't have an air force, and several of the helicopters it is equipped with are non-combat models with very poor performance. Even if it is transferred to you, it will have no effect. Beware of the Order, they may have helicopter gunships. "Judging from the Order's previous combat methods, they are very accustomed to this kind of rapid landing by helicopter, as well as the targeted attack of helicopter gunships on important targets, you must be careful about this." ”

"In other words, you gave us a heavy artillery company, but the limited number of artillery pieces used for suppression is very likely to turn into a sea of fire under the surprise attack of the opponent's helicopter gunship. Lin Rui smiled helplessly.

"So you have to hide the position of the heavy artillery position. It was also necessary to prevent the Order's infantry from landing in the city. If you rush over now, you should have almost a week to build your defenses. Gu Lei was also a little helpless, "I know that the conditions I can provide are not good enough, but there is no way." ”

Lin Rui thought for a while and said, "But we are not without advantages. At least we still have a satellite network to work with. The enemy's position is completely under our control. We can get enough timely information from the information center on the Black Isle, from Cobain. This is more than enough to make up for a lot of shortcomings. ”

"That's probably the biggest advantage, but we don't have any advantage to speak of. Shogishi nodded, "Especially the soldier's suzhì." Our trained mercenaries are better than the warlords, or at least they know how to use their weapons properly. And those warlord troops, it's just a rabble. And we don't know if they'll obey the command. When there is a real fight, if they break up in a hurry, it will be a real headache. ”

Lin Rui sighed, "But we have no choice. Pack up your things, get everyone ready to hit the road, and the sooner we arrive in Naraner, the more certainty we can hold. ”
