Chapter 89 Quick Plan 2
In the afternoon, the plan proposed by the UFO team to quickly intersperse and divide the encirclement was officially submitted.
Alberta looked at this battle plan and pondered for a long time before slowly asking Zhao Jianfei, "From the point of view of the plan, you must rush to the predetermined position from the landing site, before the other squads and the rebels fight, otherwise you will not get the expected tactical effect." ”
"Yes. The reason why we make this choice is based on the following reasons. First, we can use it to cut ties between the rebels and the mines, so that they can't hold civilians hostage. Second, it can also block the retreat of the rebels in advance, which is equivalent to cutting off their back roads before the start of the war, putting them in a desperate situation from which to retreat. Third, the fighting area was strictly controlled in the area of the town where the rebels were located, so as to prevent the possibility of a large number of civilian casualties. Zhao Jianfei nodded.
Alberta nodded, "Very good, but there is a problem. If you are to do this, at least you need to be at your destination within forty minutes, and complete the basic defenses. How sure are you?"
"Seventy percent. Zhao Jianfei said calmly, "And this seventy percent certainty does not include other uncertain factors." For example, when encountering enemy resistance or other accidents along the way, it is delayed. In addition, I am afraid that we will not be able to do this with only one team, and I will need the cooperation of another team. ”
Alberta frowned, "In an area where there is no air support, it is quite risky to have two teams rush through the entire valley at high speed to complete the task of dividing and encircling. ”
"But if you don't, you'll pay a much higher price." Zhao Jianfei said calmly, "In the event of a battle, the rebels can use that mountain road to evacuate, enter the mining area, and force these local miners to fight with us." This will make the whole battle more difficult to fight, and in case they retreat into the mines. We have no choice. They could have used these well-connected mines to maneuver with us for a few weeks. ”
Alberta frowned, he knew that Zhao Jianfei was telling the truth. Once these rebels have withdrawn into the underground of the mines, no one can do anything about them. These people are old fritters who are used to guerrilla warfare, and this is precisely why the government army cannot deal with them. And once you want to fight deep into the mines, then your own communication advantage will be completely lost. There is no satellite signal under the mine. Coupled with factors such as terrain and environment, it is equivalent to giving up all of your own advantages.
So Alberta nodded, "Indeed, I'm thinking about that too." In addition, the issue of civilians, which you just mentioned, is also a key point. Private military companies, which have never been seen as good in the eyes of the world, are involved in the abuse and killing of civilians. Not only can't we stand it, but even the company's headquarters can't withstand such strong pressure. If it becomes a big problem, it may cause the company to lose a large number of official defense contracts, and Yan Zòng may be disqualified from engaging in military defense affairs. ”
"I agree with this plan. Commander Danny, who had been silent, nodded, "However, I have one more thing to tell you. In fact, the company's senior management is also aware of this, and this operation is likely to encounter the group of attackers again. The circumstances surrounding the mysterious attackers are unclear, but their purpose should be clear. That is to do everything possible to fight and weaken us. So I think it's very likely that they're going to take advantage of our actions and attack us again. ”
"After all, a tribal armed war zone in the mountains of Africa is much better than in a relatively safe place like South Africa. If I were the attackers, I wouldn't have missed this opportunity. Zhao Jianfei nodded.
Alberta said in a deep voice, "So this time, in addition to completing the mission, we must also be careful of that mysterious group of armed attackers." There was a clear order from HQ that if this group did show up, we must find out who they were. So in case I meet these people, I need at least one alive. This is also an additional objective in addition to this raid mission. This is crucial, does everyone understand it?"
"Understood. Zhao Jianfei nodded.
Alberta nodded, "Alright, Danny will command you." And the specific operation is up to your squad. I'll wait for your news. Alberta left after speaking, and Zhao Jianfei felt that he seemed to be full of thoughts. But when he thought about it, he was relieved. Alberta is the head of Morningstar's Africa division, and the recent spate of attacks has become the most immediate threat to him. If you don't have something on your mind at this time, you're an idiot.
The team leaders gathered at Danny to discuss some details before going back.
As soon as Zhao Jianfei went, the other members of the UFO team came up, "Boss Zhao, how was the result of the meeting?"
"It's basically decided, with our plan as the main plan, and another backup plan. If we don't get to the location on the map within forty minutes, we'll go back to the backup plan. Zhao Jianfei nodded.
Lin Rui frowned and said, "Our plan is to advance quickly and complete the division and encirclement in a short time. What's the backup?"
Shogishi shook his head and said, "If the backup plan is to attack, then it is better not to have it." If these rebels have a way out, a strong assault may not be of much use. Even a violent attack would have prompted them to retreat into the mines. So the assault plan is just the way to go. ”
Zhao Jianfei nodded, "So our actions are the key to the whole mission." We succeed and the whole mission succeeds, and if we fail, the whole mission fails. The key to success is speed. ”
"There is nothing wrong with a lightly armed rapid march, the key is that we are going to carry out the task of blocking the attack. To keep this group of rebels out of the mines, we need a lot of weaponry and more ammunition. Without air support, with so much equipment and ammunition on their backs, it is simply impossible to march quickly. Lin Rui shook his head and said.
"Yes, I did the math. According to normal standards, we have to carry at least 20 kilograms of ammunition per person, plus other equipment and equipment. It is not easy to carry a weight of thirty or forty kilograms per person and cross the dense forest at a normal speed. But if you want to march quickly, it is very difficult to do so. Shogishi shook his head.
What he said is also true, because of the needs of modern warfare, there are more and more things that a soldier has to carry. The weight standard of the equipment they carry is in accordance with the standard of helicopter landing. Instead of running cross-country in difficult terrain. In the absence of helicopter support, it is difficult for them to move quickly and efficiently.
Zhao Jianfei nodded and said, "I've thought about this, let's move forward lightly, carrying only the marked individual weapons and an appropriate amount of ammunition." Other supplies and equipment will be airdropped by helicopter to our predetermined location. ”
