Chapter 1341 The army destined to become an abandoned son
In the next two days, Liu Lang was in the independent group on the daytime, and at night he accompanied his wife who came to her mother-in-law's order to grow babies. Even with Xiong Si, he stopped and watched the two big dark circles that were curious and waiting for him.
The two women probably knew Ji Yanxue's purpose, so they didn't come to fight Landlord tonight. They just looked at the dark circles on Captain Lang's face, and they didn't have any good expressions. Liu Lang happened to be calm.
He had already thrown away the sky, but his wife who had already asked for something too much was almost turned into a "Xiong Wu"...
Under the order of Commander Liu, the entire independent regiment, which had not received the transfer order, used the steel plates he bought and approved by the military headquarters to reinforce all the trucks seized from the Black Hawk Army and brought to the royal capital.
In addition to the ten tons of steel plates approved by the military, Zhang Ruhao used all his relationships and a lot of cash to open the road. He finally made a lot of gains. He spent ten times the money to buy more than fifty tons of steel plates, a total of sixty tons of steel plates, and most of them were used to transform such almost ugly trucks.
There was no attention to whether it was beautiful or not. The engine position was welded with steel plates to resist at least 7.7mm heavy machine gun shooting. The windshield in the front was completely removed and replaced with steel plates, leaving only observation holes like tanks, and even both sides were firmly sealed with steel plates. Including the rear bucket, from the tires to the top, the steel plates on three sides and the thick sandbags built behind were enough to withstand the strafing of the Black Hawk Army's 7.7mm 92 heavy machine gun.
Each truck consumes more than one ton of steel plates, and sandbags and other items. Even if the truck does not carry items, the weight of the truck itself is as high as three tons. The speed naturally decreases a lot, but the protection power is greatly increased.
Rather than saying that these modified trucks are transport vehicles, it is better to say that they are simple versions of armored vehicles. After testing, even if two MG42s are fired at these trucks, as long as they are not accurately hitting the tires, they will basically not cause any major damage to the combatants in the cab and the car's bucket. Even if it is a grenade launcher, it may be possible to kill and damage the people in the car's bucket after accurate hits, but the damage to the car is not great. Unless the Black Hawk military uses infantry cannons to destroy this modified monster.
Of course, the premise is that infantry can hit a guy who can move on the battlefield at least 20 yards, and that requires a certain level of shelling.
After each car is modified and tested, it will be covered with tarpaulin. Obviously, Liu Lang would not show such a truck easily before the battle.
The Independent Regiment is busy, and the battle situation on the Haicheng battlefield has also undergone new changes.
Royal Capital Military Department.
General Lei, who had just been honored as deputy chief of staff of the military department, entered the study with a serious expression under the guidance of Zhao Shanyu, the commander of the kingdom guard. The king, who was closing his eyes to rest, opened his eyes when he heard the sound. Seeing that it was General Lei, a rare smile suddenly appeared on his face. He immediately stood up and greeted intimately: "Where are you here, Junkai?"
"King!" General Lei stood attentively to salute the king, and immediately said with a serious expression, "According to the technical department of the Haicheng Branch of the Military Investigation Bureau, the recent exchanges between the Haicheng Army's Haicheng Army's headquarters and the local base camp have increased sharply. I am worried that the Black Hawk Army will likely increase its troops greatly. At present, our army will only barely support the battlefield of Haicheng. Once the Black Hawk Army continues to increase its troops, the situation will be in danger."
Yes, it is not only Liu Lang who predicted that the Kingdom Army of Haicheng Battle would be defeated. After the national combat strategy of the Black Hawk Empire, the military general who was responsible for the national combat strategy against the Black Hawk Empire failed a few days ago, he finally made this strategic prediction with tears in his eyes.
Although he was reluctant, this senior general who could be ranked among the top five among the contemporary kingdom soldiers still had to admit that if the battle continued, the hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers gathered in Haicheng would die in one battle, which would be even more terrifying than losing Haicheng.
"I know, I know this. At the first two Black Hawk Military Conference, Yu Shaohua from Heyuzhou also proposed that the Black Hawk Army would definitely mobilize troops from the north to the south, and the target would definitely be my Southeast Haicheng." The king also had a serious face and nodded slightly, "Although Yu Shaohua brought an unrighteous reputation for Sun Hongshan in the northern incident, this man not only has good character, but also has some military talents. He spent a lot of effort to defeat him in the war."
"Yes! This person is available." General Lei nodded in agreement.
"Then let's talk about it later, the key is now." The king paced back and forth, looking at General Lei, "I don't know if Jun Kai has a good solution to deal with it?"
General Lei sighed and said sadly: "King, there are heavy rains in these Haicheng areas, and our front-line positions are soaked in the water. The soldiers on the front line are suffering. The subordinates think that our army should completely abandon the city on the shore of the mountain and shrink their forces to confront the Black Hawk Army across the river. The battle situation may be difficult to support."
The words were very tactful, but the meaning was to expose the meaning of retreat. Obviously, this little Zhuge was still concerned about the face of the commander of a country and did not just say it so bluntly.
But this is the person who is already a good person in the command, who dares to say this. If it were someone else, even if it was General Xue, who Liu Lang visited first, said that hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line should retreat, he would inevitably be denounced.
This is the big scene created by the King Zen Jing. Although the situation is not superior, it will at least block the Black Hawk Army in Haicheng for more than two months. Who dares to say that the boss can't marching and command?
really......
"Give up the city of Taishan River?" The king's face was filled with anger, and he paced back and forth indoors with his hands behind his back.
Knowing that his temperament was like a cold sweat oozing from Zhao Danyu's forehead, this was a symbol of the big boss's anger. But General Lei stood up straight, not afraid.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! As one of the highest decision-making levels of the commander's headquarters, after crying bitterly forty thousand men under his command, he could no longer tolerate more elites being consumed with the range of the Black Hawk Army's naval guns. Only by retreating to the other side of the river can all be avoided.
After a long time, the king stopped and frowned, "Can you leave a unit?"
"Leave a unit?" The general Lei, who was furious at the boss, was puzzled, "The king's words are puzzled."
Of course, General Lei could not understand. In his opinion, hundreds of thousands of troops could not withstand the Black Hawk Army's offensive. What's the use of leaving a unit?
At this time, the boss was not watching military gains and losses.
The king did not look at the doubtful deputy chief of staff, but turned his back to look at the bleak winter scene outside the window, and said in a faint voice: "Junkai, the convening of the United Nations is about to be held. It is reported that this time, the United Nations General Assembly will include war on the topic. If our army can leave a unit in Pingshanan City, it can also indicate that we will never compromise our battle to the end. In this way, the United Nations General Assembly may be more beneficial to our kingdom when it decides."
In fact, the king did not say anything. The Black Hawk Army Base Camp already had the intention of peace talks, and the two sides were communicating secretly that this battle would have to be fought no matter what. Otherwise, the United Nations General Assembly would not pay attention to the small kingdom, and the Black Hawk Empires might not have had a peace talk.
That's right, until now, the number one person in the kingdom still has fantasies, fantasizing that both sides will not be able to distinguish between the two sides, and then everyone will sit at the negotiating table to discuss the conditions, and then lead the foreign countries in. At most, the kingdom will suffer some losses and make concessions, and stabilize the situation first. After delaying for a few more years, all the ordnance masters in his dream will be replaced, and then you can challenge the Blackhawk Empire people.
Wishes are beautiful, but reality is cruel. The kingdom leader who is dedicated to "talking with fighting" does not know that the Blackhawk Empire's people are already impatient this time. Not only will I transfer Ishihara, the Minister of Operations of the General Staff of the Blackhawk Empire Army, who is holding "non-expansion", has also formulated a plan to destroy the entire kingdom.
"That's all." Although General Lei disagreed with this suggestion, the big boss had already agreed to a big strategy, and this face must be given.
"Then let Junkai arrange this matter. You must select an elite force from each army group. The size of the force must be at least one division!" the king continued.
"I understand, let's make arrangements now." General Lei saluted the king and turned around and left.
From this moment on, a kingdom army was destined to become abandoned sons and sacrifice for the needs of the upper political class.
Haicheng Front.
As the war progressed, the originally sufficient supply of supplies for hundreds of thousands of troops became quietly tense, especially the supply of ammunition and food standards were repeatedly reduced. Not only did the Kingdom of "a cannon fire and ten thousand taels of gold" lose money, but as the Kingdom Air Force repeatedly broke its wings, air supremacy was gradually controlled by the Black Hawk Army. During the day, it was difficult for trains to enter the material transfer area, and they could only use the cover of night to transport.
But this is not the most annoying thing. The lack of ammunition can be used for saving, and the food can almost be saved. The most unbearable thing is the rain and snow weather in winter. The heavy rain for several days in a row. There is no shortage of water in the southeast region. When the trenches are dug deep, the water will be poured at the bottom. This is great. The terrain of Haicheng is low-lying. The trenches that the officers and soldiers finally dug are like small ponds filled with water. If you raise fish, you can live for at least ten days and half a month.
The hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Kingdom Army who were standing on the front line were all soaked in the cold turbid water. If it was summer, it might be a little stronger, but it was late autumn again, and the suffering was beyond words. If such a weather lasted for another three or five days, the Black Hawk Empire would not need to attack at all, and they would collapse.
Now even the most uncultured and strategically ignorant big head soldiers can see clearly. The battle north of the Pingshanzhou River is no longer possible. Now there is only one road left, that is, retreat to the south of the Pingshanzhou River, and rely on the solid steel and concrete buildings in Haicheng City to fight street battles with the Black Hawk Empires.
Of course, there are some things that the big-headed soldiers would not know. Most of the Haicheng urban area is actually territories of various countries. The foreign Black Hawk Empire will never allow the kingdom army to fight street battles with the Black Hawk Empire in the territory. The king also hopes that the United Nations General Assembly of the foreign Black Hawk Empire people can interfere in this war, and it is even more impossible to take the initiative to offend foreign powers. Even if they want to withdraw, they will retreat to the suburbs to fight the Black Hawk Army in the field.
In other words, once the area north of Pingshanzhou River is abandoned, it means that Haicheng has actually been lost. To put it seriously, until now, the Kingdom has actually been defeated in this battle. The remaining problem is how to end the war as decently as possible.
However, at this time, the commander of the King Fang still stubbornly chose a strategy that was different from what hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the front line wanted.
