So, he said without thinking: "There are many models of Russian 152mm artillery. But I speculate that those who can reach Syria should be produced in the 1970s and 1980s, or even longer, so the effective range should be around 20 kilometers."

Hamid asked in surprise: "Brother, do you understand all this?"

Ye Chen nodded and asked again: "Does the other party have air firepower?"

"No." Hamid said: "There are only a dozen broken Su24s in the government army. Most of them are lying in the hangar and cannot fly. Those who can fly have to defend the capital and occasionally attack terrorists. They can't spare energy to hit me, and it doesn't make any sense for Su24 to come, it's just dropping some bombs."

As he said that, Hamid said again: "As for the armed helicopters, I'm not afraid of him coming. Anyway, their armed helicopters are not very good. I have a lot of shoulder-mounted missiles here, so it's easy to shoot helicopters. I guess they are not willing to take the helicopter to die."

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that it is probably a pure ground war, so you don't have to worry for the time being."

As he said that, Ye Chen said again: "I suggest you observe the other party's intentions first, because the number of people on the other party itself has a great advantage. If they want to attack with force, they will not bring so many artillery, so their strategic intentions should be the same as the ground war model between countries decades ago. I want to coordinate with you for infantry and cannons!"

Hamid asked: "What is infra-cannon coordination?"

Ye Chen said: "It means that infantry and artillery fight in concert. To put it bluntly, the artillery will rush after bombing the infantry, and the infantry will not rush over the artillery. In your current situation, the opponent should plan to use artillery to cover you with artillery to blow you up, reduce your personnel in half, and cut your combat power in half, and then use armored vehicles to cover the infantry's charge."

Hamid agreed and said, "You are right, I think they must have a intensive bombing for me first!"

Ye Chen said, "Don't be afraid of blowing up, because your backscene tunnel is already in place. Now, you should transport all your most precious personnel, materials and equipment to the backscene tunnel first, and then quickly let someone drive away your precious armed helicopters. The number of people on the other side is large, and your helicopters will not play a big role. You should drive hundreds of kilometers away and find an unmanned valley or on the plains on the hilltop to stop. Otherwise, when the other party's shelling begins, your helicopters will probably have to kneel down."

"Yes, yes!" Hamid came to his senses and immediately ordered the adjutant beside him: "Let the helicopter pilot prepare. Fly north and fly a hundred kilometers away to find a place to hide!"

It’s not that Hamid was panicked. Although he had been fighting with the government forces for a long time, he had never had a large-scale conflict.

Therefore, his overall view is not that strong, at best he is the level of a small guerrilla leader.

Now that the government forces suddenly gathered such a powerful armed force to attack him, he was suddenly at a loss and had no idea how to deal with the battle.

On the contrary, people like Ye Chen who have never fought a war but are considering problems more comprehensively can remain 100% calm at this time, and carefully analyze the situation and give more reasonable suggestions.

Ye Chen said to him at this time: "I probably have a certain impression of the landform where you are. It is surrounded by hilly and mountain roads, winding and rugged, so you will not be too fast to advance too fast, and don't be too anxious to let the helicopter leave immediately."

As he said that, Ye Chen suggested again: "You can now ask the helicopter to help lift some precious heavy equipment into your backscene tunnel first. At the same time, you have to ask your front-line scouts to closely monitor the other party's movements, when the other party stops marching and starts to launch artillery, and when the helicopter leaves, it is still time to let the helicopter leave."
