At Alkahn’s temporary headquarters, General Logan faced General Carrian Road, “Currently we are progressing smoothly. So far we have mastered Alkahn’s urban area, and there are only sporadic resistance in the eastern suburbs."

General Carrian nodded, "I heard. I didn't expect things to go so smoothly this time. I have to say that General Logan's reputation in Canavia is truly unmatched."

"Where? If it weren't for Canavia's support and assistance, there would be no such action. Logan will remember everything that the general and your government have done for me.

This operation also relied entirely on the clever command of the general. "General Logan nodded.

Lin Rui walked in from the outside, "Don't rush to court each other.

Although we won Alkahn this time, there are too many fluke elements, and the follow-up will be more complicated. I brought the latest news from the intelligence team. "

"Are there any new developments in the Orumi Federation Army?" General Carrian quickly got up and asked.

"Yes, according to our intelligence, several garrisons of the Orumi EFF in the Anmore area are rapidly moving in the direction of Alkane. Obviously, they have obtained relevant information.

The Orumi Federal Army understands the importance of Alkane very well. They should want to launch an offensive against Alkane while we are still in a stable position after losing Alkane. "Lin Rui turned on the tactical computer.

"How many of them are there? Where do they come from?" General Logan asked immediately.

"They were originally in the 9th Regiment of the Orumi Federal Army near the town of Pinus tabulaeformis. They have crossed the Gallente River and joined the 5th Regiment stationed in Kanlia.

On the east side, there are two training camps directly under the Orumi Federation, and a mechanized infantry regiment of the Orumi Federation originally stationed in Aguilar.

Looking at it this way, their total strength may exceed 8,000, approaching Alkan from three different positions. "Lin Rui marked on the map.

"A force of more than 8,000?" General Carrian frowned. "The number of troops is almost equal to ours."

"Not only that, I have fought with them. These units are among the most powerful in the Orumi Federation Army." General Logan frowned.

"We must deploy defenses immediately and wait for the arrival of the backup force. Finally, we have taken Alkahn. We absolutely can't be retaken by the other party." General Carrian sternly said, "I have already said our action It's too sloppy, and we should wait until the backup troops act together."

"This is impossible. Even if we have a backup force, we cannot easily enter the battlefield at this stage. It is used as a backup force.

If you enter the battlefield now, you may lose tactical flexibility. Lin Rui shook his head.

"Mr. Rick, then do you think we can hold Alkane now?" General Logan frowned.

"This is not good at the moment." Lin Rui got up and paced, "If we choose to stick to Alkane, it will likely be a long time. But it may not be able to stick to it.

If we want to stop them effectively, we can't passively defend here, we have to guard out first. "

"Prevent going out? You mean we are organizing a line of defense in the suburbs?" General Carrian frowned.

"What I mean is to guard against the outside more. For example, to stop them here and slow their speed, it is best to wait until our reinforcements arrive." Lin Rui pointed to the map on the computer.

"Here? It's more than 30 kilometers away from downtown Alkahn. Do you want us to take the troops so far? What about Alkahn?" General Logan looked at the map in surprise.

"The enemy has no precise knowledge of our numbers, and they must have never imagined that we would mobilize most of our manpower to ambush them along the way.

Therefore, if they encounter an attack, the first thought will definitely not be that we transferred troops from Alka.

And would think that this is another force we used to ambush them.

In this case, the enemy commander will have a false perception that our military strength far exceeds their estimates. "Lin Rui drew on the map with a pen.

"In other words, they think we have more than 6,000 troops in Alkahn. There are also a group of thousands of troops setting up ambushes along the way to stop them." Karian's eyes turned.

"That's right, this way they can delay their attack on Alkane, and secondly, they can't figure out our true strength.

If they think that our forces far exceed them, then they will not be so determined in attacking Alkahn. Lin Rui explained.

"Will this be useful?" General Logan asked with some worry. "If we send a large number of troops out, then Alkan's own defense level will be lowered."

"On this point, the general doesn't need to worry. We have already confirmed it. At present, around Alkahn, only these troops are really powerful threats to us.

If we succeeded in stopping them midway, Alkan would not be attacked by other troops.

Another point is that the time we spent from starting the battle to occupying Alkane was very short. Of course, this is because the insurgents everywhere in the city have given us too much help.

However, this will cause the commander of the Union Army of Orumi to have a wrong understanding of our military strength.

Because in such a short period of time, the more than 4,000 defenders of Alkarn will be wiped out. Our military strength must be far beyond the defenders of Alkarn.

Under normal circumstances, we must be 3 to 4 times theirs to be able to win Alkan in such a short time.

Coupled with the obstruction forces encountered along the way, the commander of the Orumi Federal Forces would think that we are very likely to be tens of thousands.

The generals think about it, if they think we have invested tens of thousands of people to take down the city of Alkahn. Will they try to counterattack Alkahn with a few thousand people? "

"I probably understand." General Logan thought for a while, "As long as we defend against Alkane, let them think that we have other troops besides Alkane.

And this force is likely to have participated in the battle of Alkan, so it can help us win Alkan so quickly.

So these Orumi Federation forces will cause an illusion that our forces far exceed them. "

"Are you trying to scare these Orumi Federation forces back?" General Carrian looked at Lin Rui.

"It's a bit too much to scare them back. In fact, they won't be scared. But if we succeed in stopping them.

They would think that even the troops responsible for perimeter blocking can't fight, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of troops stationed in Alka. This will greatly shake their confidence. Let their commanders make wrong judgments. "Lin Rui replied.
