"It's okay, it's not too bad." Chen Xi replied in a relaxed tone, he and his team were hiding in the ruins formed by several collapsing barrier walls supporting each other, surrounded by the corpses of the smasher and the controlled, "At least it's not bad for now." ”

"Can you get in touch with our trapped troops? They don't have our own dedicated communicator and have been out of touch with the command center for quite some time. ”

"I can see about two or three platoons of infantry, surrounded on all sides. But are you sure you want us to support them? Our mission is to get into the command center of the Sijing people and seize the information before we reach the coalition forces. ”

"But now you can't enter the core area of the Sijing people, aren't you? If you don't go in now, I'm afraid you won't be able to go in a little while. ”

"What's going on? The coalition forces are planning to abandon the troops trapped inside? ”

"Not really, but they will react later and demand an artillery bombardment of the rest of the town to cut off the Sijing people's reinforcement into the fighting area. Although the exact location of the trapped troops is now not visible due to strong interference, there are already people talking about sending additional special forces into the town to determine the area of engagement, as long as the approximate location of the trapped troops is determined, the next step should be artillery support. The core area is also within the range of the shelling, in that case, even you will have a hard time entering the underground facilities of the Sijing people through the shelling area. ”

"Then what do you think is the point of me helping you contact the trapped troops? Wouldn't it be a waste of my precious time? ”

"If the troops can return to command and can attack again with reinforcements, then we may not need to shell the core area anymore."

"A resumption of the offensive is unlikely. The coalition can't see this, can't you see it either? Our satellites were not affected by interference. If you're in front of the screen, you'll be able to see what the divided troops are like now. Being able to hold on until now without being annihilated is already a super-level performance. Fortunately, you sent a regiment of veterans with the most combat experience in this operation, and they have not collapsed until now, and your training is still very effective. ”

"I'm not in my command right now." Zhao Wu said angrily, "I just left from the coalition command center, and I haven't had time to go back yet!" If it's as bad as you see. So what do you recommend? ”

"Two, one coalition army itself thought of retreating and regrouping before attacking; The other continued to send people in and forcibly break through the blockade of the Sijing people. If you retreat first and then counterattack, the areas currently controlled by the coalition forces can only be abandoned, and then you have to spend the same effort to occupy these areas again, I personally do not recommend this plan, I prefer another one, although the Sijing people have been operating in this place for a short time, and this place has been transformed into a labyrinthine military camp. But your previous bombardment and artillery bombardment were not without effect, in addition to destroying many obstacles here, you also killed more Sijing troops than you imagined, and of course those civilians were also killed. In this way, the strength of the Sijing people in this town, as far as I can see so far, is probably not enough to confront the coalition forces head-on. They ostensibly had divided and surrounded the troops that had entered the town, but they did not launch a full-scale attack. Each of the besieged forces was attacked in only one direction, and not all of them were armies. A considerable number of troops were surrounded by the barrier wall and could not get out. I think it's probably because of the lack of troops. ”

"You can try. The main force of the first regiment of the defense regiment is still outside the town and has not entered, and we can mobilize more than 4,000 troops, so there should be no problem in using them to meet those troops who are still holding out. But the key is that we need to liaise with them, and we need the troops inside to cooperate with the operations outside. ”

"How about flares? Sijing people interfered with wireless communication, and there was no way to interfere with the light. It's still daytime, though. The flares are not as effective as at night, but at least they can be used and can provide direction to the troops trapped inside. ”

"But how do you convey the content?" While talking to Chen Xi, Zhao Wu walked to a dog-fighting assault car and prepared to get into the car, "Signal flares can't convey much. ”

"Hey. I'm just offering a little bit of empirical advice, and the solution is still up to you. If I want to do everything, then what do I want you to do? ”

"But let's see if you have any good ideas to give us fewer brain cells. Just kidding. Zhao Wu just replied indifferently to Chen Xi's small complaints, and then boarded the assault car and prepared to return to the command center of the defense regiment in another place, "Don't worry, we will solve the problem." Go ahead with your mission, you've reminded me of something I didn't notice before, and I'll take care of the rest. ”

"Then you'll have to hurry, and you'll have to do something useful before the morale of the trapped troops reaches zero."

"I will."

Ending the communication with Chen Xi, Zhao Wu motioned for the driver to drive, and then picked up the on-board communicator: "Inform Lieutenant Colonel Madian, immediately send a tank company into the town, send more infantry to cover, I want them to follow the sound of the battle to pick up our troops trapped inside!" Leave those barriers alone and blast them open! Use all the explosives, and when you run out of logistics, you will replenish them! ”

Although the troops trapped in the town did not have the Iron Eagle laser communicator, and even if they did, they would not be useful under the obstruction of the walls, but as the regimental headquarters of a defense regiment of more than 6,000 people, such equipment was still available, so Zhao Wu's order was transmitted to Lieutenant Colonel Ma Di'an of the first regiment of the defense regiment within half a minute.

Five minutes later, a tank company and an infantry company that had been working together to break the obstacles, together with the engineer team responsible for breaking the obstacles, rushed into the town to the sound of fierce battles. Soon, the barrier walls and the ruins of buildings on the edge of the town, which had not been destroyed by the bombardment and artillery bombardment, were reduced to smaller fragments in the fireballs that rose one after another, so that not only the obstacles were removed, but the passage for the armored troops to enter was also widened.

Every time they arrived at an intersection blocked by the Sijing people with an obstacle wall, the sappers came to those obstacles under the escort of a large number of infantry, and installed a powerful high-energy explosives on them, these things are based on Chen Xi's special explosives for elite special forces who are known as a one-man army, and for the purpose of improving production, the new explosives obtained after reducing their performance, although the power is not as powerful as Chen Xi's own ability to blow up an ordinary building, but a few more pieces, the power will naturally not be bad.

The only problem with this method is that the explosives are consumed very quickly, because the troops have only walked more than 300 meters in a straight line towards the combat area, and the high-energy explosives carried by the sappers are almost exhausted, and finally they have to send special armored vehicles to transport and replenish the explosives.

In this way, the troops must provide more protection for the armored vehicles, and the armored vehicles filled with high-energy explosives will probably have to play together once they are attacked and exploded by the enemy.

Fortunately, the location they are in now is still in the outer area of the town, and it is still under the control of the coalition forces, and the attack team of the Sijing people cannot threaten the support troops, but if they go deeper into the town, for example, when they are close to the combat area, then safety cannot be absolutely guaranteed.

"It's too slow." By the time Zhao Wu returned to the headquarters of his defense regiment, the tank company had only made contact with the trapped troops in the first engagement area at this time, and was still engaged with the Sijing troops surrounding the trapped troops, and had not completely rescued the friendly troops who could already see each other.

His deputy, clone officer Yu Qian, shook his head and said: "There is no way, the main thing is that the high-energy explosives are consumed too quickly, if you send a few more troops in and advance in the same way, I am afraid that the high-energy explosives will be used up soon." Although we were still restocking the first regiment with explosives, we didn't have much of it on our way this time. The Obiya base has already sent transport planes to deliver explosives, but it still takes two hours to get here. (To be continued.) )
