Chapter 6239 The Great War Is Coming
Accompanied by the pulling of the string by the engineer, the explosive package buried in the passage underground made an earth-shattering explosion sound, and from a distance, one after another, small mushroom clouds could be seen rising one after another. Even though it was at least three or four kilometers away from the battlefield, Lin Rui could still feel the vibration when the explosive package exploded. In the tumbling smoke waves, all the Aurumi Federation Army near the mushroom cloud disappeared without a trace. Whether they were blown to nothing or fell into a deep pit.
After the explosive package exploded, the main passage near Ackerman Prison and the ground suddenly became potholed. There were deep pits more than ten meters wide and two to three meters deep everywhere. When the Orumi Federal Army passed by, they had to bypass these The big pit, so as not to be unable to get up, which made their impact speed inevitably slow down. Many Aurumi federal troops could not control it, or were crowded by their companions behind, and fell into the deep pit one after another.
After finally running up, he found that there was no place for him on the ground, so he had no choice but to stay in the deep pit.
The Orumi Federal Army who were lucky enough to cross the deep pit found that there were suddenly many inconspicuous sticks in front of them. Each stick was only more than one meter high, and they couldn't see what it was in the faint light. It was done, but the impact speed did not allow them to do more research, so they instinctively avoided those sticks and passed through the slit in the middle, but found that the distribution of these sticks was very messy, and it was impossible to move forward in a straight line. It was going around, and during this time, most of the Orumi Federation Army had been hit by bullets.
Boo fell down screaming, and the corpse blocked the gap between the iron bars, making the companions behind had to jump over them. However, those who died were not completely flat on the ground because of the obstruction of the iron rods, which undoubtedly made it very difficult for them to pass.
then. Some brave and fearless Orumi Federal Army urged the camels to jump over the iron rods, but after a few jumps, the camels stopped moving and fell down one after another. It turned out to be camels His stomach had been pierced with an iron rod. The cavalry without camels had no choice but to die in front of the firepower of Anmor's army. With the intensive gunfire, they all fell into the iron bar array.
The commander of the Orumi Federal Army was also in the team. He saw his subordinates successfully rushing to the vicinity of Ackerman from a distance behind the camel cavalry team. The follow-up cavalry also rushed up continuously, and his mood suddenly became enthusiastic. Ackerman did not have the cover of the city wall, which was very conducive to the cavalry's impact. In order to grab the top spot, he did not follow the orders of his superiors. Waiting for the arrival of more infantry, they launched an attack first. Now the vanguard has broken into the urban area, and victory is in sight.
Cavalry night battles were originally a taboo for military strategists. But with a strong army, he didn't pay attention to the Anmor army at all.
However, gradually. His enthusiasm began to cool down, as the commanders at the front began to report bad news to him one after another. The messy iron bars arranged by the Anmor army greatly hindered the impact of the Orumi Federation army. They had to find a way to clear these inconspicuous iron bars. However, they must be under the fire control of the Anmore army. How easy is it to dig up these iron rods with a shovel or something like that?
"Idiot! Isn't it just some wooden stakes or something? Just chop it up and tie it to a rope and pull it out?" The commander angrily reprimanded his subordinates. He didn't see those iron rods with his own eyes, thinking they were just ordinary horse barriers. The cavalry is also very good at dealing with the wooden piles that block their progress. They usually cut them off with sabers. The strong cavalry only need a dozen knives to cut off a wooden pile with a thick mouth. If it is difficult to cut with a saber, cut a ditch on it, then tie a rope, and use a few camels to pull it in the opposite direction. Even if the stake is buried deeply, it can be pulled out.
The subordinate muttered, "Those are not wooden posts, but slippery iron rods, where there is no force..."
The commander frowned and went to the front to take a look in person. What his subordinates said was indeed true, and he couldn't help but curse Lin Rui for being vicious. He stood on a small high ground, and by the light of the fire, he could only see that half of Ackerman's ground was almost covered with these messy iron rods. I'm afraid there were 80,000 if not 100,000. I don't know if he used the entire Ackerman Man's power to bury these insidious iron rods.
At the same time, he was saddened to see that many corpses of the Orumi Federation Army were killed in those messy formations of iron bars. They walked forward with difficulty following the corpses of their companions, but their speed was no different from that of infantry. Under the machine gun fire of the Anmor army, they only fell down one after another.
"Command the troops! Stop attacking!" The commander gave the order loudly, heartbroken. Although he has always been famous for his bravery and toughness, he is not a reckless person. He deeply knows that any attack by the Aurumi Federation Army will be futile until he finds a way to deal with these iron bars.
With the sound of the low-pitched bugle, the remaining Orumi Federal Army retreated slowly, and set up camp about four or five kilometers away from Ackerman, waiting for the arrival of the infantry led by Ruvel. Preliminary inspection of losses, in the short confrontation of less than half an hour, the Aurumi Federation Army lost almost 2,000 people.
"Damn mercenaries! These **** mercenaries!" The cavalry commander's eyes were red, and he smashed the sandalwood coffee table in the tent with a fist.
Lin Rui, who was watching the battle in the fortress, couldn't help but trembled from the cold. The mercenaries next to him thought he had a cold, and hurriedly put on a military coat for him to shield him from the cold desert wind at night.
Lin Rui shook his head and took away the general's overcoat. In fact, instead of feeling cold, he felt a little hot and dry all over. Although those densely packed iron rods could effectively prevent the impact of the Aurumi Federation Army, but after the enemy's infantry arrived, their effect was not very great.
Ruvel will arrive after daylight. What kind of situation will it be at that time?
There was a hustle and bustle below the fortress. It turned out that those civilians who thought that the Orumi Federation Army would not attack Ackerman, after witnessing the re-ignition of the war, suddenly panicked and chose actions similar to the Great Escape. They flocked to the road of Ackerman, where they searched for vehicles to escape and take refuge. However, no matter how many vehicles Ackerman has. How can it carry more than 100,000 people?
"Sir, it will be very dangerous for them to gather here in large numbers." An Anmor officer cautiously reminded. More than 100,000 refugees gathered near the Ackerman Highway, but Lin Rui did not send any Anmor Army troops to maintain order. Only the policemen of the Ackerman Police Station were powerlessly watching everything in front of them. In the vast ocean, the local military and police are like a drop of water, and they can't find it at all.
"They should have to go through this kind of encounter. Some of them will spontaneously come out to organize. Besides, we don't have any extra troops." Lin Rui said coldly. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes were a little cold.
The officer nodded half-understanding.
Sure enough, after about an hour of confusion, some organizers stood out among the refugees, and they were distributed in various favorable positions. Spontaneously guide the refugees to retreat. The refugees who were in extreme panic finally had a decent command, and most of them silently waited in line for the ship according to the command of the organizers, preparing to go to the Anmore area to temporarily avoid the war.
As for why go to Anmore? Because all the organizers said so, the refugees did not have much time to judge whether this decision was correct. What they needed was to urgently leave this city that had been caught in the flames of war many times.
"Why did they all choose to go to Anmore?" a mercenary asked curiously.
"Because those organizers are from Atley." Lin Rui said lightly. Standing in front of the railing and looking to the far northeast, there is Anmore, and I don't know what's going on now.
The mercenary suddenly realized. It turned out that all of this had been arranged long ago. From this, it was speculated that these people probably enjoyed the peace and quiet there after they arrived in Anmore, and they probably would never come back to Ackerman again. They will bring a considerable amount of construction funds to Anmore, as well as advanced industrial experience, and even human consciousness, which will subtly change the thinking and concept of the entire Ankewei people.
"I'm going to sleep, and Ruvel's troops will wake me up when they come." Lin Rui said. Then he turned around and went to sleep, and when he was woken up, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. The scouts reported that Ruvel's large army had arrived.
I don't know whether it was deliberately slowing down the marching speed to restore the soldiers' physical strength, or they were harassed by mercenary troops on the road. The troops led by Ruvel arrived six hours later than the predicted arrival time, and, after arriving in Acre After Mann's periphery, Ruvel did not launch an attack immediately, but chose to set up camp, as if he was going to fight a protracted war with Anmore's army.
"Well, the northernmost one is Hudson's army, the middle one is Reis's army, his army will be the main attack, our two churches are under his attack range, and the southernmost one is Simon's troops, we speculate that he may be responsible for cooperating with other Orumi Federation troops to launch an attack." Jiang An, an actuary who acts as the chief of staff, reported to Lin Rui.
Lin Rui looked at the one next to him.
Battalion Commander Birbohm mused and said: "Hudson took the risk and suffered a small loss. Ruvel may be more careful. However, according to our intelligence, the supplies he is carrying can only last for a week at most. First of all, it is always them who can't bear it. We wait for work and wait for them to hit their heads and bleed. The ammunition convoy from Anmore has already set off, and it will arrive in about two days. Your people will personally **** them, There shouldn't be any problems.
The Chief of Staff is organizing the reinforcements, which will also depart shortly. "
Lin Rui nodded, and asked thoughtfully, "What's the matter with the local army?"
Battalion Commander Bill Bohm said: "We have no news about this group of people yet. Their whereabouts have been erratic, and it is very difficult to search for them in the vast desert. Their secret strongholds have always been those desolate The Gobi Desert is not conducive to our tracking."
Lin Rui thought for a while and said seriously: "We must find a way to inquire about the information of this group of people. I am worried that Ruvel will collude with them and try to cut off our transportation line. Our weapons are very lethal, but ammunition consumption If the ammunition cannot be supplied in time, we will be very dangerous. If there is a problem with the ammunition transported this time, we will have to give up Ackerman."
Battalion Commander Bill Bohm said solemnly: "I know, I will." Then he went out to arrange work.
The more Lin Rui thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He carefully searched the oases in the desert on the military map. However, it is not easy to find out where the local army may be hiding in these oases.
Ruvel did not launch an attack on the first day, but was carefully preparing for various attacks. From the telescope, it can be seen that the Orumi Federation Army has prepared a large number of combat vehicles and engineering Cars and the like, it seems that Ruvel is planning to attack Ackerman by means of siege warfare. It is a way to use engineering vehicles to clear obstacles and combat vehicles to advance.
Although the enemy did not launch an attack, the overwhelming army of more than 10,000 people pressed around Ackerman. Looking around, they were all dark barracks, which still involuntarily made everyone feel depressed. The longer the time, the more depressed they felt. strong.
The arrival of Ruvel also triggered a major earthquake near Ackerman. The civilians scrambled to get on the boat and wanted to escape from Ackerman as soon as possible. The organizers carefully arranged by Atley could not completely control this situation. Overwhelmed by the desire to flee for their lives, the refugees used various methods to **** vehicles and rushed to flee.
The chaotic dispute caused many casualties of the old, the weak, the sick, the disabled, women and children, but Lin Rui was still reluctant to send troops to maintain order. It was not until gunshots rang out among the refugees that someone shot and killed his competitor that Lin Rui gave the order A battalion of Anmore's army led the reserves up to maintain order. Under the dark muzzles and shining bayonets of the Anmor Army, it took a whole night of hard work to gradually restore order, but the number of people who were trampled and scrambled to death has reached over a thousand, which can be described as a mess everywhere.
What is even more unfortunate is that the order that had just been painstakingly re-established was completely shattered less than two hours later.
Because at nine o'clock the next morning, the Orumi Federation Army launched a crazy attack across the board, and the mercenaries were forced to lead their troops away from the main road and prepare to go into battle.
