Chapter 6275: Choice of Advance and Retreat

The Anmor Army arrived at the outskirts of Orumi City in the evening. At the beginning, there were only about one hundred reconnaissance troops. They stopped slowly about one kilometer away from Aurumi City, looking at Aurumi City from a distance. They happened to be facing the setting sun, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected them all in golden yellow, as if they were envoys sent from heaven, even the dazzling blue Anmor flag was covered with a touch of golden yellow.

These Anmor troops seem to be very disorganized, they don't have a neat military appearance, and they don't have large offensive weapons. They only have very ordinary cloth uniforms, and they don't seem to have any special momentum, but when every Aurumi Federation soldier looks at them, he can't help but feel a little difficult to breathe.

As more troops continued to arrive, the stream continued. Soon a fan was formed around the city of Aurumi, and they all looked at the city of Aurumi curiously, as if they were full of interest in this goal. After the darkness fell, more Anmor army soldiers arrived. It seems that the momentum is more majestic when the night comes. Looking at it from a distance, you can't see the soldiers of the Anmor Army, but you can only see the lights of vehicles coming slowly from the east. Then it slowly spread out in front of Aurumi City, and finally surrounded Aurumi City like the sea.

The Red Baron immediately returned to his intelligence department to deal with the information about the arrival of Anmor's army. In just over ten minutes, all kinds of information about Anmor's army came like a flood. The coffee he just drank seemed to have been completely evaporated, and he felt that the words Anmore Army were coming and going in his mind. It is really difficult to make a calm judgment.

The entire intelligence department seemed to be lifeless, and the staff members seemed to have been thrown into the most desperate situation by the arrival of the Anmor Army, and almost all of them had a gloomy expression when processing the intelligence. The stronger the Anmor army appeared, the more desperate they became. They are the ones who know the real situation best, and they will never believe the nonsense that "the Federal Management Committee has organized nearly 50,000 troops to reinforce Orumi City at any time". In this desperate time, even the top military officials are so depressed, let alone them.

After drinking another cup of coffee, the Red Baron finally regained his composure a little bit. Judging from the intelligence, the troops that arrived were basically the troops of Anmor's army, including tanks, which meant that Anmore's mechanized infantry had also arrived. The Mechanized Infantry of the Anmor Army has a special meaning. The Orumi Federation people never felt that the Anmor people had any armor power. The Orumi Federation felt that they were nothing more than a makeshift militia with some armored vehicles.

After all, in the eyes of the Orumi Federation officers, the troops of the Anmor Army are militia troops. Those who can be called professional soldiers refer to the several troops directly under General Kassan, with a total strength of about 20,000 troops.

"It's a good thing that Kassan's unit number didn't appear." An officer comforted himself like this. If he didn't use such words to anesthetize himself, he would have been intimidated by the dense data of the Anmor Army.

Although the walls of Orumi City are strong enough and have rigorous and ingenious fortifications, it is definitely not impossible for the armored troops of the Anmor Army to break through the positions of Orumi City. The armored troops of the Anmor army are indeed the masters of warfare in the plains and wilderness, but they are also completely sufficient in the battle of fortifications.

The Armored Forces of the Anmore Army are not many, so far, there are only two regiments. Excluding part of the logistics personnel, there should not be many that can really be used for combat. The Aurumi Federal Army defending the Aurumi City has tens of thousands of people, which is several times the number of armored troops of the Anmor Army. Even if the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Orumi Federation is indeed not helpful, relying on the solid fortifications of the city of Orumi, they should still be able to deal with the Anmor army who has no street fighting experience. Armored vehicles can play some advantages in street fighting, but they are not invulnerable.

After careful and comprehensive evaluation, the Red Baron is still very confident in defeating the Anmor Army. Perhaps the contact with the Anmor army in the plains and wilderness outside is hard to say. But in Orumi City, that might be the case. All the fortifications here are designed according to the highest standards, which cannot be easily overcome by the Anmor Army. He quickly sorted out the most important information.

At this time, the general from Anmor's side came in to report the situation to the Red Baron.

The general headquarters of the Orumi Federal Army in Orumi City is located in the northeast of Orumi City, very close to the front line. There is only one yard between the intelligence department and the headquarters, and the straight-line distance is less than 50 meters. Passing through the yard At that time, the Red Baron inadvertently saw that on the artillery position in the distance, soldiers of the Orumi Federation were struggling to adjust the direction of the artillery. These artillery were originally aimed at the northeast, but now they must be adjusted to the east. .

This is a large cannon equipped in Orumi City. It is also the largest artillery weapon of the Orumi Federation Army. In Orumi City, there are a total of more than 30 such large artillery pieces. Many of them were built temporarily. The Orumi Federal Army has a batch of L118 howitzers. Although they are artillery from the 1970s and 1980s, they are still usable. The main reason is that the Orumi Federation Army has already deployed some of these artillery pieces, and they are still very skilled in their operation. In defensive warfare, these artillery should have a chance to exert their power.

But these are just the opinions of the Orumi Federal Army. No matter from which point of view, the Red Baron feels that these towed artillery with insufficient mobility are outdated and can no longer keep up with the needs of the development of the times. Their role in war is rapidly increasing. away.

Now is the era when mobility dominates the battlefield. These fixed-position artillery should have been eliminated long ago. It can only be said to be a kind of sadness that they will continue to be used now.

"Are there only so many people?" The Red Baron asked, frowning tightly. Although the Anmor army came so fast, he still felt the heavy pressure even though he expected it. In the Aurumi Federation Army, there have been so many generals who have been defeated by the Anmor Army. Can relying on them turn things around? He didn't even have that confidence himself.

"Yes, there are only so many for the time being. Perhaps, other Anmor army troops will arrive here in a few days." The major general of the Orumi Federation said calmly. Hand over all the relevant intelligence materials to the Red Baron. These intelligence materials are all sent back from the east, basically the last information just sent, and some intelligence stations have even been completely swept away by the Anmor army. smashed.

The Red Baron stopped talking, and sat down slowly, looking at the map on the wall in a daze. On the large military map, the blue arrows of the densely packed Anmor army have completely surrounded the city of Orumi. There are two such cities on the military map, one is Songshi Town in the northeast, and the other is Lion Fortress in the north. The Anmore Army controls several huge military fortresses at the same time, which shows that the strength of the Anmore Army is indeed not what it used to be.

However, the Red Baron was not immediately intimidated by the Anmor Army. He was thinking carefully. If there were really only less than 20,000 Anmor Army troops appearing, they really don’t need to worry. Certainly not directly attacking the city. Anmor's army didn't have heavy artillery, so they couldn't break through the solid defense of Orumi City. At the same time, the armored units of the Anmore Army have not received training in fortified warfare and street warfare. Their commander would not do such a stupid thing. If they used this small amount of armored troops to attack the city, it would be like hitting an egg on a rock. This was probably what he wanted to see the most.

However, wouldn't the troops of the Anmor Army not know their own shortcomings? Would they do such a stupid thing? The Red Baron immediately denied his hope. The Anmor Army must have another way to attack the city. They will definitely give full play to the mobility of the armor and find other ways to make the Aurumi Federation Army in Aurumi City surrender.

"Notify the troops and be on strict guard. There must be no slack in the slightest." The Red Baron said solemnly.

"Yes!" The staff officers in the headquarters agreed, and went to notify separately.

Although the loss of the three most elite troops organized by the Secret Society has seriously weakened the defensive strength of Aurumi City, there are still a large number of Aurumi Federation troops in Aurumi City, with a total strength of 40,000 to 50,000. people. It is more than enough to use them to deal with the current Anmor army. The other Anmor army is not afraid of street fighting, if the Anmor army is really stupid enough to fight street fighting with the Orumi Federation army.

It's just that the Red Baron felt that Anmore's army must have more powerful tricks that they hadn't used.

In fact, this is indeed the case. In the following time, the troops of the Anmor army did not directly attack the city. On the contrary, they seem to have voluntarily retreated. After a long sleepless night, the next morning, the Red Baron suddenly discovered that there were no large troops of the Anmor army around the city of Orumi. No one knows where they went. The Orumi Federation soldiers who had been tense all night seemed to be hallucinating. That is, the Anmor army did not come for the city of Orumi.

Later, through intelligence, the Red Baron learned that Anmor's army left only a small number of personnel around the city of Orumi to monitor, and the rest of the troops dispersed like wild wolves. Raid around the places near Aurumi City. The Anmor army divided part of its forces, bypassed the city of Orumi from the south, and swept the vast area in the south of the city of Orumi. At the same time, some of the troops of the Anmore army bypassed the city of Orumi from the north Aurumi City, sweep the vast area in the northwest of Aurumi City.

All of a sudden, around the city of Aurumi, the flames of war were everywhere, and the wind was raging. The Aurumi Federation Army inside the city of Aurumi watched from afar as the troops of the Anmor Army wreaked havoc around, but there was nothing they could do. They felt very uneasy about the actions of the Anmor army, and felt that the Anmor army must have ulterior motives in doing so. But no matter what they thought, no one dared to leave the city of Orumi to rescue them outside. At this time, leaving the city of Aurumi is a dead end. In the plains and wilderness, even if the number of Aurumi Federation troops is ten times larger, as pure infantry, they will only be massacred by armor.

"They want to surround us?" A general of the Orumi Federation said in confusion, and the rest of the Orumi Federation generals also looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Probably not." The Red Baron shook his head. The Anmor army actually surrounded the city of Orumi last night. They couldn't make a fuss around them. There must be a deeper purpose in doing so.

The answer was soon revealed, and Major General Red Baron received an urgent message from the outlying forces in Orumi City. Several urgent letters arrived at the headquarters in a row, which shows the urgency of the situation. It turned out that the large troops of the Anmor army were sweeping around the city of Orumi. They destroyed houses, burned villages, and drove the people of the Orumi Federation to flee. There was a mass panic around the city of Aurumi, and many people in the Aurumi Federation fell into a state of madness and ran around.

On the outskirts of Orumi City, there are not many Aurumi Federation troops, and there are no strong fortifications. Naturally, they are not opponents of Anmor Army troops. Even if some Orumi Federation people organize and want to surround themselves The homeland was not violated. As a result, it was also swept away by the Anmor army. In just two or three days, the Anmor army completely cleared the vast area around the city of Orumi. Everything they passed became no man's land. However, the Anmor army did not kill many people, and most of the common people were expelled.

From this time on, the city of Aurumi was completely cut off from the outside world and became a veritable isolated city. Of course, the Aurumi Federation Army stationed in Aurumi City still has a choice. After all, they still have tens of thousands of horses. If they choose to break out, a considerable number of people may have to sacrifice. However, there may be some people who survived. Of course, this is the most ideal situation. If there is an accident on the way to break through, the worst situation is that the entire army is wiped out.

The Red Baron is faced with a difficult choice. He must choose a path for these tens of thousands of people, and more importantly, he must choose a path for himself.

It is of course the best choice to continue to contact the secret order's armed forces and stand by for help. Aurumi City is strong enough, and before the arrival of a large number of infantry and heavy artillery from the Anmor Army, the Red Baron has enough confidence to prevent the Anmor Army troops from entering Aurumi City for half a step. But the biggest problem with this plan is where are our reinforcements, and will the Secret Society armed forces as reinforcements come?

Now that the Aurumi Federation Army is too busy to take care of itself, how can there be any extra troops to rescue Aurumi City? You can almost think of it with your heels, if the troops organized by the Secret Society don't make a move. The final result of standing still and waiting for help will definitely be the annihilation of the whole army.

Abandoning the city to break through the siege seems to be a good choice. After all, there are tens of thousands of Aulumi federal troops. Even if they encounter the Anmor army, they can fight. But a fight is definitely a fight, too many will not work, and there is not even a chance to fight twice. Going south from the city of Orumi to break through, at such a long distance, it is impossible for the infantry of the Orumi Federation Army to outrun the troops of the Anmore Army. If they were chased and intercepted by the Anmore Army and reinforcements, the result would be Definitely wiped out the whole army.
