The general offensive began, and this time, the royal army was ready for a back-to-back battle. All the troops left no room at all, and Lin Song's Snow Wolf team was on standby from the beginning of the battle, ready to rush into the battle-torn Coconut Grove City at any time.

In the beginning, the artillery units took the lead. The artillery regiment of the armored division, which belonged to Colonel Katyn, poured all its artillery fire on the key divisional targets in Coconut Grove City.

The headquarters, supply warehouses, local artillery positions, repair shops, these places, all received the key care of the artillery units of the royal army, and the whole shelling process lasted for nearly an hour, and when they stopped the shelling, Lin Song felt that the city in front of him was also in front of him, and the whole city was smoking.

At the end of the artillery bombardment, the armored units began to sort, four tank squads of two tanks, each squad with a platoon of about 40 infantrymen, a total of 20 such groups, a total of 80 tanks, more than 800 infantry The first assault team rushed into the interior of the city in a wedge-shaped formation.

Behind them was a full regiment of about 2,000 infantrymen, lined up in skirmishers, in small groups, ready to occupy the city.

But what they didn't expect was that when the first commando team entered the center of the city, it had already arrived with strong resistance, and the other side had built fortifications at many important intersections, although these fortifications had just been erected, but they could withstand the bombardment of more than 40 mm artillery, and they were equipped with heavy firepower.

Lin Song was standing on the street, inside the headquarters headquarters, and he heard the sound of battle in front of him constantly coming from the earpiece of the communication equipment, and the sound of artillery fire and machine gun strafing was shocking.

Not long after, the first batch of wounded rescued from the front line were also sent to the field hospital next to the command post. Lin Song's Snow Wolf team, as a mobile force, has no combat mission now, Lin Song asked his comrades to stay at the scene, and he went to the field hospital to have a look.

Soon, Lin Song found that most of these wounded were burns, fragments, and penetrating wounds from gunshot bullets, which showed that the degree of resistance they encountered was unusually strong when they were attacking the city.

Lin Song quickly ran back to the command post and said directly to Colonel Katyn, who was directing the frontline battle: "Colonel Katyn, I have something important to tell you. ”

Colonel Katyn frowned: "Is there anything to talk about later?" I don't really have time right now. ”

Lin Song shook his head: "I ask the snow wolf team to join the battle immediately. ”

Colonel Katyn's face changed: "Lin, you are the most important mobile force, and we have to put you at the most important juncture. ”

"This is already the most critical juncture, Coconut Grove City is not the same as the Coconut Grove City you knew before, the other party has built too many fortifications in the city, and they have invested a lot of money, so rely on the commandos coordinated by Butan to rush hard, I'm afraid it won't take a few hours, your commandos will be exhausted!

We are now fighting against the water, every soldier, every tank is a non-renewable resource, if a soldier is injured, we will have one less, and if a tank is destroyed, we will have one less, there is no time to hesitate! Lin Song said.

Colonel Katyn still didn't speak, and at this moment, an operational staff officer reported the battle damage on the front line again: "Report, the front-line commandos report the battle damage, the combat vehicles have lost their combat effectiveness close to 40 percent, and the casualties of the front-line commandos are close to 20 percent!" ”

Don't think that 20 percent or 40 percent is not a terrible number, in the combat theory that Lin Song has learned, generally speaking, when the casualties and losses of a unit's living forces reach 30 percent, it can be declared that the unit has completely lost its combat effectiveness.

Because the wounded need to be ambulated, this will crowd out a large number of people to volunteer. When the loss of personnel exceeds a certain percentage, the original command structure is no longer suitable for this remnant.

In other words, now the front-line commandos are close to completely losing their combat effectiveness and going straight in!

Eventually, Colonel Katyn said, "I see! Order the front-line assault team so that they can stop advancing, find favorable terrain in the existing position, and rely on the terrain to suppress the opponent's fire. ”

After finishing speaking, Colonel Katyn turned his head to look at Lin Song: "Lin, then please leave it to your snow wolf group." ”

Lin Song smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Coconut Grove City is a standard functional city, the place where we exchanged fire is far away from the densely populated residential areas, and most of these fortifications are surrounded by low buildings.

After the snow wolf team went deep into the city, it reconnoitred the coordinates of the opponent's fortifications and guided the rear artillery strike, and after the operation was successful, the goal of occupying Coconut Grove City was close to being achieved. ”

Colonel Katyn said directly: "Now that you have understood, then I will not say anything more. Need some support from me? ”

Lin Song thought about it, and made a request to Colonel Katyn, and directly removed the royal guards led by Captain Liam to assist. These members of the royal guard were originally from special forces, and they were suitable for this kind of urban warfare.

Even Liam himself directly changed into combat equipment: "It's enough for the princess to have Gao Suyan, we are now fighting to defend the country!" ”

The group set off, took a vehicle directly to the city, and braved the rain of bullets to the front line, at this time, Lin Song realized that it was almost impossible to advance directly from the ground.

"Take the underground drain!" Lin Song said: "Where is the municipal map! ”

Liam hurriedly took out the municipal map, and the group chose the route of advance on it, Lin Song said: "East Road, you take Zhao Hu, Lao Zhang, and these brothers of the royal guards to enter the enemy-occupied area from the west.

Liam and I, Wu Meng, and these brothers from the royal guard, entered from the Eastern Front, and after arriving at the predetermined location, we didn't need to contact each other, and we directly started fire reconnaissance.

After that, every half an hour we could inform each other about the position and the battle. From now on, we have twelve hours to reconnoiter at least forty percent of the fortifications and clear the way for the city behind! Everyone, do you understand! ”

"Understood!" All the comrades-in-arms replied in unison, with a momentum like a rainbow.

The group immediately went down the sewer, along the route they had been optimistic about, and moved forward in the stinking sewer, but soon, they found that the sewer had already passed its hands and feet.
