On the morning of the morning of the strange rage, when Pei Chengyi came to the tactical command center, Yuan Chenhao introduced to him about the battle situation of Di Lin at night.

"I have thought about the method. The Indian army's field air defense forces have not been completely destroyed. The risk of sending vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft to Ranchi is very high." Yuan Chenhao lit a cigarette and greedily took two big mouths. "The battle in Varanasi is very fierce. After leaving the army to force cross the Ganges River, the Indian army was stubbornly blocked by the Indian army in Ala Town west of Patna. The tactical aviation corps is bombing the Ala defenders with all their might to support the outgoing army to cross the Song River. The biggest problem is that the logistics supply line for the outgoing army was cut off by the Indian army near Patna. Although the Air Turkish brigade has rushed over, the convoy transporting combat supplies is still in Muzaffarpur. It has to wait until the Air Turkish thugs and the brigade has cleared the Indian army on both sides of the supply line before setting off. For this reason, I adjusted the tactical air transport force to airdrop combat supplies for the outgoing army."

"In other words, the airborne thugs, the trade and tourism industry did not receive airdrop support?"

Yuan Chenhao nodded and said, "I have been trying to contact Li Dongshi, but I have never contacted him. According to the communications consultant, the directional communication channel of the Airborne Brigade has been in contact with the medical assistance frequency band. Perhaps Li Dongshi has too many serious injuries in his hands and has to give priority to the rescue of the wounded. According to the news received yesterday evening, the Airborne Brigade needs medical assistance the most. Li Dongshi repeatedly requested to send a vertical take-off and landing transport plane to pick up the wounded, but he has not been arranged so far."

Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Try to send another set of directional communication equipment."

"It's time to arrange it, but the air transport force is very tight, and the air transport work in the morning is fully arranged. Only in the afternoon can the transport plane be sent to Ranchi."

"How is the battle in the direction of Kolkata?"

"It's much smoother than expected. Ling Yunxiao has sent a second combat brigade. The large-scale battle in Gardenridge can end in the morning, and the remaining Indian troops in the city are swept through the afternoon. The sword army can sleep peacefully tonight."

Pei Chengyi nodded and said, "Contact the Air Tube and return to the brigade. After the sword army captured Gadenridge, set out to attack Canning Port. Also, let the Air Tube thugs lead the brigade to complete the capture mission at the same time."

Yuan Chenhao took two puffs of cigarettes and said nothing. These are combat missions that had been arranged long ago.

"Have you contacted the Amphibious Assault Fleet?"

"I have contacted and am heading north. If everything goes well, the amphibious assault fleet will arrive after the Air Brigade captures Canning Port. The fleet carrying combat supplies is expected to arrive on the night of the 18th."

"As long as Jigo moves, let the amphibious assault fleet join the battle as soon as possible."

Without delaying much time, Pei Chengyi asked Yuan Chenhao to leave the tactical command center. Although Yuan Chenhao had to seize the opportunity of self-expression and lay the foundation for future promotion, after a few days, he only had less than 3 hours of rest every day and took on most of the tactical command tasks, and was already exhausted.

When Yuan Chenhao left, Pei Chengyi re-checked the tactical deployment of Gongbi?

The amphibious assault fleet was sent up not to fight landing battles, but the amphibious assault fleet did not have the capital to fight landing battles, because the two land brigades transported were already landing in Chittagong. Pei Chengyi did not value the landing combat capabilities of the amphibious assault fleet, but its powerful amphibious projection capabilities. The so-called "delivery capability" can be used to deliver combat troops such as the Marines, as well as combat materials.

Controlling the Port of Canning will be a key step in the combat operations in Kolkata.

To this end, Pei Chengyi asked the 77th Army to attack Gadenridge first, which played a role in killing two birds with one stone, that is, while restraining the main force of the Kolkata Indian Army, he obtained ground passages to support the Mi Army and the Da Army.

In order to achieve the second goal, Pei Chengyi also did two things: one was to occupy Diamond Port, but transported the materials that arrived at Canning Port to Diamond Port, then transported from Diamond Port to Gardenridge, and finally transported the materials to Mijun and Dajun using the railway and highway departing from Gardenridge.

The key is Port Diamond, and the problem is Port Diamond.

As one of the oldest ports in the estuary of the Ganges River, the current Diamond Port is far less brilliant than in history. Due to geographical factors, especially the billions of tons of silt brought by the Ganges River every year, Diamond Port has long been replaced by Canning Port, and has degenerated from a commercial port that could accommodate large ships of 10,000 tons to a fishing port that can only accommodate 1,000 tons of ocean-class fishing boats. If this trend continues, the waterway of Diamond Port will be blocked by silt and sand in less than 20 years, and it will become a dead port. Because Diamond Port's throughput capacity

It is extremely limited, so ocean-going ships carrying combat materials cannot enter, so they can only go to Canning Port. The transport convoy set off from Canning Port and headed to Gardenridge and must pass through Kolkata on the east bank of the Ganges. In this way, Pei Chengyi either shoots Kolkata in one breath or finds another way out. The former is not realistic. Even if he gets a super bomb, it will take several days to capture Kolkata. The combat materials carried by the Mi army and the Dajun army will last up to 3 days. The solution was not what Pei Chengyi thought of, but what Yuan Chenhao thought of.

First let the fleet enter Canning Port, and then use the amphibious assault fleet to transport the supplies to Port Diamond Port. The amphibious assault fleet landing ships include air cushion landing crafts with a capacity to summon tons and a large number of transport aircraft. Not to mention transporting the materials into Port Diamond Port, if necessary, they can even use air cushion landing crafts and transport aircraft to deliver the supplies to the hands of the Mi Army and the Da Army. Considering the huge risk of directly supporting the Medicine Army and the Donkey Army, Pei Chengyi decided to spend more time. At least before destroying the Indian army's coastal defense anti-ship guide position along the Bay of Bengal, the amphibious assault fleet cannot be allowed to take risks.

According to this idea, the amphibious assault fleet can deliver approximately warm stew supplies to Port Diamond every day.

Although the daily material consumption of Mijun and Dajun exceeded that of Liankou tons, according to the intensity of resistance along the way, every day,

"It is necessary to consume and stew combat supplies four times. However, when you get tons of money every day, the two armies can last for about 3 more days.

These three days are crucial to attacking Kolkata and opening up railway transportation lines.

Of course, Pei Chengyi was not very worried about the combat operations in the direction of Kolkata.

The Indian army's performance in Gardenridge proves Pei Chengyi's speculation that all the second-line troops stayed in Kolkata were also very limited in combat troops.

After the Knife Army occupied Gardenridge, they will exchange their identities with the Jiejun.

At that time, the one responsible for attacking Kolkata will be the most powerful gang in the Republic's Army.

Can the second-line Indian troops in Kolkata withstand the attack of the Chi army?

You should know that the main force of the Bandwan Han army stationed in Seoul that year was defeated by the Ao Army.

More importantly, if the battle progresses smoothly, when the agglomeration army attacks Kolkata, the agglomeration army and the leaping army have completed the mobilization work in the west bank of the Ganges. Even if the main task of the fallen army and the leaping army is to advance west from Sahi Xiagen, sweep away the remaining Indian troops in the southern part of Bihar, and then advance towards Patna after arriving in Lekiserai. The lead army will go south to attack Kharkhand, attack Pokkaro Steel City, and reinforce the trapped Fujian brigade, as long as the situation changes, Pei Chengyi can allow the fallen army or lead the army to go south to participate in the combat operations against Kolkata at any time.

Or open the railway line from Lekiserai to Klegepur in southwest of West Bengal, about 1,000 meters away from Kolkata, which is an important logistics supply center for the army and the army to move south, thereby reducing the impact of Kolkata on the entire combat operation. In addition, Pei Chengyi can also allow the fallen army and the army to go south together, first to rescue the airborne brigade of Ranchi. Then open the railway line from Ranchi and through Raulkra, located in the northern part of Odisha. Finally, the railway line to the Bay of Bengal coastal areas, providing logistics support for the Medicine Army and the army.

In other words, Pei Chengyi made three preparations for the Mi army and the Da army to move south to sweep the coastal areas of the Bay of Bengal.

As long as one line is opened and maintained, the offensive actions of the Medicine Army and the Dan Army will not be affected.

The battle of the Varanasi direction dagger is worth considering and has received high attention from Pei Chengyi.

Pei Chengyi was not worried about whether the 3rd Airborne Brigade could defend Varanasi. Previous battles have shown that the strength of the Airborne Brigade is not as strong as the Airborne Brigade. Relying on its strong defensive position, it can resist several times the strong enemy. More importantly, the Airborne thug Nai Brigade paid a greater price in front of the position.

What is really worth considering is whether to let the deporters participate in the war.

Bangladesh has agreed to let the gargoyle army enter India to participate in the war. After all, in addition to the Indian army entrenched in Assam and Meyagara, which poses a certain threat to the northern region of Bangladesh, Bangladesh does not have to consider local security at all. Because of the existence of ten thousand troops, it is difficult for the Indian army to threaten Bangladesh. In this case, letting the gargoyle army participate in the war will not only reduce the burden on Bangladesh. The material consumption of the gargoyle army stationed in Bangladesh will be borne by Bangladesh, but will also win the favor of the Republic. It will provide assistance to Bangladesh in controlling West Bengal.

The question now is, will Nepal agree to let the Nu army participate in the war?

Pei Chengyi had to consider this issue because Nepal is not Bangladesh.

Although the Republican army has achieved a decisive and significant victory on the Eastern Front battlefield. It has lifted the threats to the eastern region of Nepal, the western region of Nepal is still not stable. If it were not for the existence of the witch army, India would have a very likely invasion of Nepal.

In this way, Nepal is unlikely to let the army go until local security is guaranteed.

From another perspective, Pei Chengyi was unwilling to mobilize the last armored army at this time.

According to Pei Chengyi's battle deployment, the Delivery Army will be the main force to advance to the western region of India in the later stage of the battle, and will become the absolute main force in the Western Front final battle. Letting the army enter the battle too early will not only weaken the combat effectiveness of the Wu army, but also expose Pei Chengyi's campaign attempts.

Of course, whether to summon troops to participate in the war depends on the situation on the battlefield.

The army has already attacked thousands of kilometers in mainland India. Although its appearance has always been amazing, as a strategic reactive army with a small organizational scale, the army has become the last of its strength. It was blocked by the Indian army on the east bank of the Song River and had to slow down the marching speed, which proves that the concave army is in trouble.

The biggest trouble is the mental state of the officers and soldiers.

Assault troops like the Knife Army can still rest for a few hours during combat breaks, and when they go out to take on large-scale assault missions, they are surrounded by Indian troops, so it is impossible to get a chance to rest during the march. Although Pei Chengyi did not come to the front line in person, in his judgment, the officers and soldiers of the Dian Army must be exhausted.

Like Luo Jun, the air brigade, which was responsible for the support mission, reached its limit.

Can you pin your hopes on Hongjun who is about to move westward?

Even if we didn't consider letting Hongjun turn to Ranchi in Lekiserai, because the concave army had been fighting for several days in a row, the officers and soldiers would definitely not be in good condition. Even if the fallen army could attack Patna in one breath and attack Patna, whether they could support the army to arrive in Varanasi is a problem.

If the army falls, you can't count on the reserve team that has not participated in the war.

Airborne thugs: Mujiao Brigade is definitely not good, and the airborne troops are not suitable for cooperating with ground troops' attacks.

There are only the air thrust thugs and the Blade Brigade, the last assault brigade at the banquet that did not participate in the battle.

The problem is that at this time, the overhead thug brigade was sent. Pei Chengyi, Ya did not have an air assault force that could be mobilized. Although Xi was not necessary for the time being, and the air assault force was put into the air assault force in the direction of the gate, considering the offensive operations in the later stage of the battle, it is definitely necessary to retain an energetic air assault force. And it is very necessary.

what to do?

After weighing the pros and cons, Pei Chengyi issued an order that morning to allow the old brigade of Kongtu to surround Patna, but there is no need to attack Patna. After the Hongjun arrived, the ark army attacked Patna. Then, Pei Chengyi issued a combat order to the brigade of Kongtu and the brigade: support at full speed.

Only in this way can the old brigade be rested and restored to its combat effectiveness in the later stage of the battle.

If the fight is good, the three aerial assault brigades placed in the direction of Kolkata can also restore combat effectiveness in the later stages of the battle.

With the assault capabilities of the Air Force Brigade, supporting the army is not a problem. The most important thing is that the Air Force Brigade has a complete combat organization and there is no problem with the mental state of the officers and soldiers.

After completing this deployment, Pei Chengyi turned his attention to Ranchi.

Airborne thugs How did Shaolu fight?

What made Pei Chengyi the most headache was that he could not contact Li Dongshi in time.

Although Pei Chengyi did not mean to accuse Li Dongshi. As a battlefield commander, Li Dongshi's primary task was to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, in Pei Chengyi's view, as a brigade commander, Li Dongshi should not often leave the command center and run to the front line to command battles. If the brigade commander is required to command tactical operations, what is the point of setting up grassroots officers such as battalion commander, company commander, and platoon commander?

After letting the staff officer continue to try to contact Li Dongshi, Pei Chengyi could only wait patiently.

At this time, the battle of the Lanqi direction dagger had begun.

The air strike ends before dawn. The aviation troops who are in support missions will fully support the outgoing army during the day in accordance with the arrangements of the frontline command, and will not provide too much support for the airborne brigade.

Li Dongshi didn't know about this because he had to face the influx of Indian troops.

In the first battle in the early morning, the Indian army launched an attack from two directions.

The main force set out from the city of Lanqi to the south. The Indian Army Preparatory Division, who arrived last night, set out from the north. At the same time, the Irrigation Battalion made full use of the fortifications on the position and repelled the Indian army's multiple attacks. The main reason was that the Indian Army's reserve division lacked armored power and relied on infantry charges alone. It was impossible to break through the crossfire network set up by the airborne troops. After several rounds of impact, in addition to leaving hundreds of corpses of Indian officers and soldiers on the periphery of the position, the Indian Army was unable to even attack the defensive positions of the airborne Nu Brigade.

The key is in the south, and the main division of the Indian army is difficult to deal with.

In the first two battles, the first two! The assisted battalion and the first thugs, Tang Battalion also took a lot of advantage. He used anti-tank firepower points and mobile combat gusts to kill several Indian tanks and infantry fighting vehicles. He repelled the Indian attack. By the third battle, the situation was not so optimistic.

To absorb the teachings of the previous two attacks, the Indian army first used the direct firepower of the tank to hit the exposed fire points before the attack.

Although this "early strike" does not pose much threat to the officers and soldiers who were airborne in the same brigade, because before the Indian army's offensive troops attacked, the officers and soldiers hid in underground fortifications not far from the fire point and would not enter the fire point in advance, but this had a great impact on the defensive operations behind them. When the officers and soldiers entered the trenches, they could only use the temporary fire point thugs to block the Indian army, increasing the risk of exposure.

What's even more terrible is that the Indian army used the only few remaining heavy artillery to bombard the 2-ported bunker.

Faced with the Indian army's heavy artillery deployed in the southern suburbs of Lanchi City, the airborne thug's strong millimeter mortar howitzer was far less than that of the Indian army's heavy artillery, and it did not pose a threat to the Indian army's artillery.

The gust lost the cover and could only maneuver the defense on the array, thus exposed to the muzzle of the Indian tanks.

Fortunately, Li Dongshi had already transferred half of the chariots of the two battalions to the thugs. The officers and soldiers of the strong battalion withstood the fourth attack of the Indian army.

At noon, the Indian army stopped the attack. Although the Indian army was eager to capture Lanqi, because the third army arrived in Bendu had more and more combat troops. If Lanqi could not be captured in time, the third army would be completely destroyed. However, the Indian army officers and soldiers were also humans and they had to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. They could not let the officers and soldiers fight hungry.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Dongshi asked the logistics camp to deliver the hot meals to the position.

The Indian army stops the attack, which is definitely an opportunity to counterattack.

During lunch, Li Dongshi called Zhang Zhihuan over and arranged a counterattack for the thug.

Serving.

When most of the Indian army were still busy filling their stomachs, Zhang Zhizhu led the first thug at a speed of more than 50 kilometers to launch an attack.

This round of impact is not only fierce, but also fast.

After breaking through the Indian army's offensive position, in addition to arranging two companies to focus on attacking the Indian army's material storage location, Zhang Zhihuan did not issue an order to slow down the battle, but instead rushed through the Indian army's position with his armored assault troops, and then returned from the defensive position, which is the defense direction of the thug, Wanzhuo.

When the Indian army realized it, Zhang Zhituo had already rushed back with his troops.

The entire assault lasted less than Feng minutes.

The battle in this village won a relatively peaceful afternoon for the officers and soldiers of the Fujian Brigade.
Chapter completed!
