Chapter 1280: The first phase of the attack failed
Everything was unexpected by Pham Minh Jun.
The Blues were better equipped than had been anticipated.
This method of roundabout surprise attack is an old tradition of the PLA, in fact, the tactics are not outdated, the question is how to use it.
I use it now, but it's a mess.
From the departure station of the Red Army brigade to the main theater of defense of the Blues, there were a total of twelve roads relatively suitable for the passage of heavy armored units, two of which had bridges.
It is said that under normal circumstances, commanders tend to take advantage and avoid disadvantages, and will not choose places with bridges to go.
The reason is very simple, if there is an ambush there, and half of it is pinched by the head and tail and blocked in the middle, then it will be a big loss.
It is also based on this idea.
Fan Mingjun felt that Xia Chenglong was not so stupid, and would be so stupid that he thought that he would break through from the direction of Bridge 2.
Opposite.
Soldiers, treacherous ways.
This is also the reason why Pham Minh Thien ordered two companies to sneak around from the direction of Bridge No. 2.
As a result, I didn't expect that there was even a hidden detachment of the Blues there.
Don't think about it.
It's definitely a scout for the Blues.
Pham Minh Jun is not a careless person.
The choice of bridge 2 was well thought out.
Not only did they conduct aerial reconnaissance, but they also sent a ground detachment to reconnoitre, and then they sent an armored infantry to line up and pass over the bridge, making a feint
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to attract firepower.
If there are lurking troops of the Blues around, perhaps they will not be able to resist attacking these "decoys".
After repeated consideration and testing, Pham Minh Thien believed that the direction of Bridge No. 2 was safe, so he sent interspersed troops.
It turned out to be a hit.
It sent chills down his spine.
In warfare under modern conditions, intelligence and battlefield surveillance are very important means of victory.
Clearly, the Blues are too familiar with the terrain.
Almost every road, every path that can be passed, they know it, and they all control it to the death.
Now the attack of the A-brigade, which was the Red Army, was completely bogged down.
Pham Minh Thien had to give the order for the troops to stop the attack and readjust.
After several hours of fighting at night, the 4 battalion lost one company, one of the two tank companies in the battalion.
Fan Mingjun's flesh hurt.
If sacrificing a company can open the passage, that's fine.
Now it can't be hit, and it is completely pinned down by the Blues in the buffer zone 20 kilometers in front of the main theater of operations, and it can't be attacked at all.
This company was sent to death in vain.
As for the Blues' "mutant" Type 59 tank, Pham Minh Quan once had the urge to call the director's department to ask why.
I just thought about it and gave up doing it.
Does this work?
Useless.
Obviously, the director has abandoned the traditional methods of previous exercises, and the blue army in the grassland town synthetic comprehensive training base is very mysterious, with all kinds of speculations and all kinds of boasting about being powerful.
In the past, Pham Minh Jun always scoffed.
Powerful?
Have your own brigade strong?
Now he knows.
Although the blue army that is playing against itself was only reorganized more than two years ago, with the "help" of the digital countermeasure system developed by the base, its strength is only stronger than that of the front-line brigade-level units of the whole army, and it is even more than enough to confront some division-level units.
It is useless to protest to the superiors and a sign of cowardice.
There is no such gene in the traditions of the A Brigade.
He Fan Mingjun can't afford to lose this person.
If it comes, it will be safe.
He retracted Brigade A and hid it again.
Now, the previous battle plan seems to be in a desperate situation.
He needed a new battle plan.
Brigade A stopped its attack, and the entire battlefield fell silent.
The Blue Army Brigade is playing the defender, this is their first time fighting, and the brigade commander Xia Chenglong is not in a hurry to chase and fight the A Brigade.
Last night's battle, the Blues had a slight advantage, but it was not enough to deal a fatal blow to the A Brigade.
The combat effectiveness of Brigade A is still there.
Xia Chenglong was unwilling to take risks, Brigade A retreated, and he ordered the troops to hold on to their positions, but ordered the solemn reconnaissance battalion to use this time as soon as possible to collect more flaws and intelligence from the Red Army Brigade, and it was best to find the headquarters.
This is the most valuable goal.
When the day dawned, solemnly faced with a choice, to leave here, or to stay here.
"Xu Er, you go and inform everyone, let everyone pack up, and prepare to leave here."
"Now?"
Xu Er was a little dazed.
"yes, go to the parking spot and get the car, then leave, and find us to go around behind them."
"Okay."
Xu Er couldn't help but be a little worried, but he still carried out the order.
It is too dangerous to move during the day.
Night is the scout's world.
From last night to now, they have been hiding on a hill to the right of Bridge 2, where there is a large area of grass more than half a man high, enough for the detachment to hide.
After the two companies of the Red Army Brigade suffered heavy losses here, they solemnly led the detachment to change locations overnight.
They abandoned the two hills near the original two bridges and turned to another hill about five hundred meters away.
The reason why they can't leave is because they still have to keep an eye on it.
Before dawn, no one knew whether the Red Army Brigade would kill a horse pistol.
Now that it is daybreak, this place is close to the starting position of the Red Army, and it is really not suitable to stay for a long time.
If he were Fan Mingjun, he would definitely search and clear the areas at the key points of each road.
No one would allow a reconnaissance detachment to infiltrate their zone.
Soon, everyone took off their auspicious clothes, stuffed them into their backpacks, and then prepared to leave.
Suddenly, the soldier in charge of the guard issued a warning on the radio.
"There's a search party!"
Zhuang Zheng hurriedly ran towards the position of the guard post.
Lying on the ground, he slowly crawled over and came to the side of the guard soldier: "Where is it?" ”
"At 10 o'clock, there are two more points."
Solemnly took out the binoculars and took a look.
Sure enough, I saw a team of armored vehicles driving here at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock, and the speed was very fast.
"Battalion commander, there are enemies on this side as well."
Xu Er also called solemnly on the radio.
solemnly turned around and ran back, and came to Xu Er's side.
Xu Er is in charge of the vigilance in the other direction.
At first glance, there was also a platoon of armored convoys heading here.
"They surrounded us." Xu Er said.
Take a solemn look left and right, now there is a direction to evacuate in addition to the south, the south is the No. 2 bridge, and after crossing the bridge, evacuate in the direction of your own Blue Army defense area.
But in doing so, you will also expose yourself, and there will definitely be a firefight, but the chances of a successful evacuation will be very high.
"Let's retreat." Xu Er said: "It seems that they guessed that we were in this area and planned to surround us and search for us." ”
Zhuang Zhuang didn't speak, his brows locked.
It would be easy to withdraw, but if you have to arrange infiltration again, you can't always stay in your own defense zone, that won't play any role.
It's just that once you take the initiative to withdraw, I am afraid that it will be several times more difficult to come back.
The Red Army Brigade is not stupid, after they clean up this place, they will send people to lurk here.
In this way, it is equivalent to someone else taking the initiative, and if they want to enter this area again, they will have to face the secret sentinels hidden in the grass everywhere.
No one can absolutely spot these sentries.
What to do?
To withdraw to save your life or not to withdraw?
If you don't withdraw, what can you do?
"Battalion commander, they got out of the car and started searching, we have to hurry up and get an idea!" Xu Er was a little anxious, because many soldiers got down from the armored transport vehicle, spread out in a fan shape, and began to close here.
