Battlefield Contractor
Chapter 4639: plan B
At dawn, the rebel army finally invaded the old city of Paramore. Another rebel army that had gone through a long journey also arrived at dawn that day.
Part of the troops actually arrived on standby along Route 4 by car last night. Arrive at the meeting point on the outskirts of Paramore in the morning. And this rebel army brought not only more than 3,000 combatants, but also a large amount of materials and equipment.
In the fierce exchange of fire, several nearby villages had already been blown up and burned, and there were fireworks everywhere. The newly arrived insurgent officers and soldiers had to find some open spaces to camp. The people who receive defenses, receive ammunition supplies, and transport the wounded and sick here are crowded with people, you push me.
At the headquarters, Lin Rui saw the hammer and the insurgent commander Bart who had just arrived. Bart is also Lin Rui's old acquaintance. This person is a close friend of Hammer and has cooperated with Lin Rui many times.
"Mr. Rick. We finally met. This time I brought more than 3,000 people and a lot of equipment supplies." Bart said excitedly. "I heard that you have already invaded the city of Paramore?"
Lin Rui nodded, "It's true, but we can't be too optimistic. We only control part of the old city, the enemy is entrenched in the new city, and to be honest, we lack heavy weapons. If the enemy decides to stick to it If it’s like this kind of street fighting, to be honest, I’m afraid it will take a long time."
Street fighting is generally called "urban warfare" because it is a battle between streets and houses. It usually takes place in cities or large villages. Street fighting has the following two notable characteristics: one is that the enemy and ourselves are hand-to-hand, close to each other, and are cruel; the other is that the enemy and ourselves are mixed, canines, and dangerous.
Modern street fighting means that whoever has powerful air and ground firepower, who has better mobility, and who has information on the battlefield, will win.
The Orumi Federal Force does not have any tanks, but the insurgents such as Lin Rui also have no armored vehicles, only some armored trucks that have been welded with steel plates and modified. But that kind of thing really doesn't have much protection. The bullets flying in the various corners of the city street fighting will kill the soldiers at any time.
The terrain of the city makes the shelling effect difficult to achieve, and neither side has armed helicopters, which means that both sides can only rely on infantry to fight for control of the city. And this kind of battle is obviously more beneficial to the defending side.
Complicated cities will make the fighting environment extremely complicated, and soldiers may encounter attacks when they pass through any house. Buildings formed by reinforced concrete will become more suitable sniper points, making the attacker even more caught off guard.
The actuary Jiang Kishi nodded, "Street fighting is difficult. The difficulty lies in the rapid conversion of offense and defense. The difficulty lies in the fact that I am in the dark and the enemy is also dark. Generally speaking, street fighting is the easiest way to turn the war back. When conducting large corps operations in the field, the test is the overall combat level of a unit.
And the streets here are very narrow, except for infantry, almost all heavy equipment can't get in. Our heavy armed truck is estimated to be difficult to pass.
Small armed pickups can barely squeeze in, but they can't be deployed even if there are too many. Even if there are tanks and armored vehicles, they can only move on limited streets. Self-preservation is difficult, and they cannot provide effective firepower. On the contrary, they are easy to accidentally injure themselves. "
The Hammer was silent for a while, "Not only these, there are actually many civilians in the city. If the fighting goes too far, accidentally injures or kills too many civilians, it will put us in a very unfavorable public opinion. I hope that in the future In combat, we try not to harm civilians.
After all, we participated in the uprising and repeatedly declared that we were fighting for the liberation of the people of the Orumi Federation. If too many civilians die, the Orumi Federal Army will seize the opportunity to pour dirty water on us. They would say that these civilians were captured and shot by us. "
"But if we don't act ruthlessly, we won't even have the chance to be criticized or splashed with dirty water." Sergey interrupted him. "Because we will die. They don't need to smear dead people."
"I'm discussing this issue very seriously." Iron Hammer frowned.
"I'm **** serious." Sergey stared. "At this stage, what are you telling me that there are civilians in the city. Do you want us to be restrained by enemy bullets? I can tell you clearly. This is fighting.
No matter who appears in front of us, we must shoot him, or we will die. Those Orumi Federation forces can impersonate civilians as long as they take off their uniforms. When we pass by him, he will open fire at us. We have encountered too many such things. "
"I just want to say that we should minimize civilian casualties." Hammer couldn't help but argue.
"Then don't fight, there will be no casualties without war. You can live happily like a pig and live under the humiliation given to you by the secret society." Kuaima stood up and said. "In that case, what did you hire us for?"
"Okay." Lin Rui finally said. "A little respect, the hammer is our employer."
He stood up and said to the hammer, "However, my people are right. If you are restrained, you will not be able to fight. In addition, I am not optimistic about this kind of battle. This kind of street fighting is greatly beneficial to the defensive side, and we have no advantage. At all."
"Mr. Rick, then what do you mean?" Hammer groaned.
"We won't fight anymore." Lin Rui turned around and said. "Indeed, as long as you take Paramore City, you can open the door to Orumi City. But this is not the only way.
The biggest reason why we attacked Paramore City was because we wanted to meet Bart here. And now Bart and his people have arrived. Our military advantage has begun to become prominent. In this case, should we still follow the original plan? "
Iron Hammer and others looked at Lin Rui inexplicably.
Lin Rui smiled slightly, "If we leave a part of the troops, defend the old city, and confront Isaiah. The other troops will move again. Bypassing Paramore and attacking Orumi directly, what will happen?"
"Avoid the truth again?" Sergey frowned. "In this situation, Isaiah will definitely not give up Paramore."
"But I'm afraid he can't be the master. Once Orumi City is attacked, he will probably be transferred back." Lin Rui looked at everyone and said, "We will let the 3,000 of Bart's men stay here and confront Isaiah. The rest of us bypassed Paramore and attacked Orumi City directly.
Isaiah belongs to the capital garrison, and once the capital Orumi is in a hurry, he can only withdraw. As long as he is gone, Bart can occupy Paramore without much effort. Since you can achieve the same effect without fighting. Then why must we be obsessed with fighting? "
