Sandy asked again, "So what are you going to do?" When we give up the way of Christ, doesn't it arouse suspicion? ”
"Our main force will now go around the path, leaving only us and the 1st Company to walk slowly on the main road, and when the 2nd Battalion enters the city, we will go to join the other companies. In this way, the other party will not have time to react in time. ”
"Cut, it's going to take a lot of time." After Sandy looked at the current location of the second battalion on the intelligence, he said dissatisfiedly, "By the time the second battalion arrives here, it will be night." ”
Casto said nonchalantly: "Forget it, anyway, the command has also given up the idea of quickly resolving the battle." They were going to take the city more cautiously. Anyway, once this place is taken, there will only be two towns left with the capital Yasen. So, we don't have to rush. ”
"Then I'll go and arrange the transfer of the whole battalion."
At the same time, in the command vehicle of the division headquarters of the special technician, Beliko looked at the movements of the first battalion of the first regiment of the defense army on the screen with great puzzlement, and couldn't help but say: "What are they doing?" Why did you stop? We didn't have any ambush spots left on the road at all, but they stopped? ”
Anthony smiled: "Probably because they were confused by the battle we made before, they don't know what to do?" ”
"How is this possible?" Beliko disagreed, saying, "They are quite numerous, there are thousands of them in this vanguard alone, not to mention that they have other troops. That's 30,000 men. ”
"Maybe they want to preserve their strength? Just like us. Anthony added. In order to avoid losing their status due to too much damage in their internal forces, they probably think so. Otherwise, it doesn't explain why an attacker would stop after a few minor setbacks. ”
"Maybe the other party has other purposes. But we just don't know. Beliko walked outside, "Anyway, our plan is already running, no matter what other plans the other party has, it doesn't matter to us anymore." We're going to get out of here anyway. ”
In fact, the 2nd Battalion arrived much sooner than expected.
At half past five in the afternoon, the 2nd Battalion entered the city, and soon caught up with Castor's battalion headquarters along the main road from which the 1st Battalion had left.
"Hey. Man, I heard you're in trouble? Barney, the commander of the second battalion, walked briskly into Casto's battalion headquarters. As soon as he entered, he spoke out loud.
"It's not a hassle, it's just a few minor issues." Casto replied as he gathered his things, "I think. Now that you're here, let's get moving, we've wasted a lot of time. ”
"Okay, but you'll have to tell me about the situation! Although I got some from Command on the way, I thought I'd better hear a little more from you. ”
"Simple," Casto said, pointing to the map, "my battalion will pass this line, and the goal will be the City Music Square. And your second battalion. Along this main road, they attacked the central square of the city. The only thing you have to be careful with is the various ambushes that may appear on the road. That's it. ”
"It's as simple as that?" Barney looked at Castor quizzically. "If it's that simple, then why are you calling us to support you?"
"Didn't you get the information?" Casto shrugged, "The garrison in those two places has between two thousand and three thousand men, and I only have a thousand men, and I have to maintain the security of the occupied areas along the way. So I can't take those two places with my own forces. ”
"Hey!" Barney pointed at him and said, "That's not what I heard! I've heard that you've encountered a lot of strange ambushes along the way. Once the enemy is suppressed by us, they will all be withdrawn. So until now, you have been careful every step of the way. This is why you have been slow to move so far. ”…
"I just don't want to lose too much." Casto smiled and continued to pack his things, "So far, my battalion has exchanged fire with the defenders a total of twenty-seven times. He lost sixteen men and wounded eighty-one. However, the number of defenders eliminated was only twelve, of whom only two were seriously wounded. So you know how annoying those guys are. ”
"It's really troublesome." Hearing what Castor said, Barney couldn't help frowning.
Then he thought about something and hurriedly asked, "By the way, where are you going to pack your things?" ”
"Of course I'm going to join my battalion, and I'll leave it to you. You get ready, we'll start attacking at nine o'clock in the evening. ”
"Wait a minute!" Barney hurriedly exclaimed, "I have a question, why did you give up the main road that you had managed to open so long to my camp?" ”
"Who told you to start the offensive as soon as you came to take over, you are not familiar with the situation here, do you want to spend a day adapting to it like we did before? And then my battalion will wait for you? Since our attack plan is for two battalions to attack two target points at the same time, it is natural that you should also get to the place. The way of the Lord is given to you, so that you can get to the place quickly. Casto said as he held the last of his things in his arms, and as soon as he was done, he made his way out of the headquarters.
When Casto left the room, Barney looked at the door with a puzzled expression, and didn't react for a long time.
Nine o'clock in the evening.
The prepared 2nd Battalion launched the attack on time. In between, Barney sent his troops along the main road to reconnoiter the road for some time, during which he also exchanged fire twice with the defenders guarding the road, and saw the tactics of the other side that could be regarded as a one-shot go. This can be regarded as the second battalion is somewhat prepared for such tactics.
At the beginning of the battle, the prepared 2nd Battalion attacked the city center at full speed, and the 2nd Battalion solved the ambushes encountered on the road in two ways: one was to concentrate tank fire to flatten the place if the 1st Battalion had used it earlier; If the building was strong enough, the 2nd Battalion would have left a platoon of troops to suppress that firing point. Other troops moved on.
Completely stop and move forward.
"Hey! You see, the speed at which the second battalion is advancing! "In the command car of the commander of the first battalion, Sandy slapped Casto hard. Pointing at the screen, he exclaimed, "They're so fast, it's like they didn't stop at all!" Aren't they afraid that there will be traps ahead? ”
"I don't think they think there's any trap to trap them!" Casto glanced at the screen and immediately picked up the communicator, "Although we haven't encountered the same ambush since we diverted to the path, we are still not as fast as them in terms of advancing speed!" ”
Immediately after connecting the communication with the 2nd Battalion, Casto shouted, "Barney! You're going too fast! It's dangerous! There's no way to know if there's a trap ahead! ”
"Hey. Buddy! Barney's voice sounded happy, and he replied. Leave that alone! We're in a good position! No trap can bother us! I don't want to be timid! Let's just compete to see who can lay their target zone first! ”
"What are you kidding! You should know that the number of people on the other side is a combination of our two battalions! Do you want to take the central square with one battalion! ”
"Don't worry, old friend." Barney laughed and said, "When I become the head of the regiment, I can let you be my deputy commander!" "Finished. Cut off communications.
"Damn! Another guy who is in a hurry to get promoted! As he spoke, Castor glanced at Sandy.
"What do you want me to do?" Sandy saw it and hurriedly defended, "I didn't want to be promoted, I just fought for you!" ”…
Shaking his head, not wanting to talk nonsense with Sandy anymore, Casto connected the battalion's communications and ordered the battalion to speed up again.
"Even if we accelerate now, we won't be able to catch up with the second battalion." Comparing the speeds of both sides, Sandy said. 'They're definitely going to attack the target area before we do.'
"It doesn't matter the order of the attack, I'm just worried that they're not going to step into the trap that we were supposed to be stepping into!"
At 9:30 a.m., the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Regiment of the Defence Army arrived at the central square of Wesley. An assault on the square was immediately launched.
Although the defenders here had more than 1,500 men, they could not withstand the attack of the second battalion. Because the gap in weapons and equipment between the two sides is too great.
With the sturdy armor of the Riemannus tank and the huge caliber of the 150 mm gun, the defenders could not defend against it, and they could not defeat it. In the past, it was possible to saturate attacks with a large number of anti-tank missile shots, at least there were always some missiles that could evade the active defense system on the tank. However, since some of the Riemann Ruth tanks were covered with reactive armor, this trick is not so easy to use now.
The defensive line on the perimeter of the square was quickly breached. The guards all retreated into the bunkers that had already been set up in the square, or took refuge in the various buildings around the square.
This time. Barney had sent the rest of his troops, and he had only sent two companies during the previous attack. Although he told Casto that he didn't care about the possible pitfalls, in fact, he didn't, and although he said he didn't care, he was still on guard in his heart.
But now, seeing that the enemy had fought with him with open swords and guns, and that the line had been easily broken, all Barney could think of was that he had taken the city with one battalion and overpowered Casto, and that the merit was enough to make him the commander of the Fourth or Fifth Regiment.
So, now, he gave the order for a full-scale offensive.
Just as the 2nd Battalion was attacking the central square, the 1st Battalion finally arrived at the Music Square, but did not immediately attack, they were reorganizing their troops, and the rapid advance just now made the troops a little confused.
"Almost, there are already two or three thousand people coming in." Outside the city, on the command vehicle of the division headquarters of the special technician, Beliko said with some regret.
"Originally, I thought there would be more than 10,000 people coming in." Anthony shrugged, also helpless.
"Then let's do it." As he spoke, Berico picked up a small instrument that looked like a remote control, sighed a few times, and pressed the most conspicuous green button on it.
Seconds later, a dull roar was heard throughout the city of Wesley, the earth began to shake, and the air began to tremble...... (To be continued)
