Lin Rui's intuition has always been accurate, and this time he guessed it right. The Hammers did not stick to Highway 4 as planned.

Before that, they did follow Lin Rui's plan to fully defend the route along Route 4.

However, because the Orumi Federal Army has not arrived yet. The insurgents in the city were again besieged by the police.

The commander responsible for guarding Route 4 is himself a member of the resistance organization. They are not of a standard military origin at all, and do not have much command awareness and overall situation awareness.

While guarding the No. 4 Highway, there is nothing to do, while the city is in full swing. The commander was eager and eager, and when his head became hot, he took his own people to support the insurgent troops in the city.

He didn't completely ignore Route 4, but left a few troops to guard it.

In addition, the number of Anmor prisoners of war who had joined the rebels before was several thousand. However, without effective unified command, the deployment of the first line of Highway 4 is quite chaotic.

These hammer rebels, after all, were of guerrilla origin and lacked true military quality. The fortifications along the route are simply messed up, and there is no real effective early warning of the enemy.

Before Lin Rui and the others rushed to Route 4, these resistance forces finally exchanged fire with the Orumi Federal Army.

Moreover, there was an exchange of fire between the two sides, and the judgment was reached. It was not guerrillas and irregular forces that came across. It is the capital garrison of the Orumi Federation.

Whether it is the quality of personnel or the level of equipment. The two are not at the same level.

The resistance forces under Iron Hammer engaged in sabotage and assassination, and it was okay to inquire about intelligence. Sometimes you can fight a small-scale ambush and attack the supply transportation line of the federal army.

But if there is a real tough battle, the gap between the irregular army and the regular army will come out.

The first is the lack of an early warning mechanism. When the Orumi Federal Army was almost in front of them, the talents of the Resistance Army reacted and hurriedly responded.

It was supposed to be a defensive battle that waited for work, but was beaten by the opponent into a surprise attack that caught one's own side by surprise.

A tracked infantry fighting vehicle of the Orumi Federal Army rushed forward at high speed, broke through the defensive formation of the Rebels, and braked to a halt.

After the infantry fighting vehicle stopped steadily, a number of infantrymen quickly got out of the vehicle and formed a battle formation. This lineup is the basic configuration of the Orumi Army's heavy equipment. The 7 infantrymen are equipped with 5 5.56mm rifles, one MG74 7.62× machine gun, and one recoilless gun.

The medium-caliber machine gun is the center of the team. MG74 is an improved model based on MG3. It is equipped with a speed machine and can shoot single shots. The recoilless artillery team provides the team's attacking firepower.

An infantry fighting vehicle is a combat squad. Despite its small size, the combat effectiveness of the unit unit is quite strong.

Multiple infantry fighting vehicles cooperate with each other. This is an extremely effective offensive tactic. That is, during the impact phase of the offense, various direct-targeted weapons are concentrated for violent fire suppression to open the way for the impact unit.

The reason why this tactic is fierce and effective is that he can concentrate all his firepower on a narrow area, forming a near-absolute firepower advantage.

Moreover, the technology of these Orumi Federation forces is quite good. They also rely heavily on direct targeting to suppress firepower, and almost always use infantry companies and machine gun companies together in almost every battle.

Their commander divided the troops into three basic parts, namely a suppression squad, an impact squad and an expansion squad.

The impact squad is smaller than the suppression squad, and the expansion squad is the largest. They even opened the way for a squad with a complete machine gun battery.

In this way, the impact squad can stand up and strike at a close distance from the enemy's position without causing casualties. After opening the breach, the impact squad expanded to the two wings to expand and solidify the breach; the large forces quickly passed the breach and penetrated into the depth of the enemy's defensive position to expand the results.

This offensive battle formation is completely different from the broad and thin line defensive formation of the Hammer Resistance.

In battle, they almost always divide their forces into suppression units, impact units and expansion units.

At the beginning of the battle, the Orumi Federal Army used seatless artillery, rocket launchers and machine guns to violently press down on a very narrow area of ​​the defensive position.

The weapon launch positions of the Olumi Federal Forces are sometimes less than 100 meters away from the resistance positions.

Under the cover of fierce suppressive firepower, the small-scale assault unit of the Orumi Federal Army destroyed the barbed wire and launched an attack on the bunker and fortifications that could control the breach.

After opening the breach, the expansion team quickly passed the breach and broke into the depth of the defensive position.

When breaking through various established positions, using two squads for fire support and one squad for impact is much more effective than using one squad for fire support than two squads for one squad.

This formation is not only suitable for light infantry, but also for the mechanized and armored units of the Orumi Federal Army.

When it is necessary for infantry to clear a roadblock, capture a certain village or occupy an exposed wing to ensure that the armored unit completes its main task, the mechanized infantry can be used in tanks, the infantry armored vehicles of the unit itself, and artillery and mortars. The attack was launched under the fire support of various direct and indirect targeting weapons.

These combat operations are usually carried out under conditions where the suppression firepower is very fierce. The suppression unit is usually larger than the mobile unit. Therefore, it is easier to expand the results.

The rebels are not the regular army, and for the irregular army, what they fear most is being suppressed by firepower.

So from the beginning of this battle, they fell into a great passivity. It was almost suppressed and hit by the Orumi Federal Army.

With the addition of the hammer's rebel forces and the newly added Anmor prisoner of war forces, it is equivalent to fighting separately, and it is difficult to produce effective cooperation.

Fortunately, they deployed the fortifications along Route 4 in advance and played a key role. Although these machine gun defenses and infantry bunkers are very simple, but at this time, they have become their hard support.

The Orumi Federal Forces did not intend to make a quick breakthrough against them. More important for the Olumi Federal Forces is to seize control of Highway 4.

The Orumi Federal Forces do not care about the occupation of Reidmai, they care more about the safety of the Orumi Federal Capital Territory.

So they need to give priority to controlling Route 4. Avoid the merging of Redmeyer's rebels with the rebels of several other cities and pose a threat to the capital region.

It is also for this reason that the Hammer Rebel forces can continue to confront the Orumi Federal Garrison.

If it is to operate in accordance with conventional operations, the Orumi Federation forces can quickly penetrate the defenses of the Resistance.
