Chapter 1057 First defeat?(1/2)
Blue Front Headquarters.
As soon as the sky was dawn, the command center's meeting was already being held.
Zhu Haipeng, who was sitting in the middle, probably didn't sleep well last night, and his eyes were a little red.
However, nothing can be seen from the spirit.
Looking at several fellow C divisions around him, Zhu Haipeng began his speech very neatly.
"Although the situation on the battlefield yesterday happened slightly in the initial and final stages, it was still relatively beneficial to us in general."
Zhu Haipeng said in a faint voice,
Listening to the comments from Commander Zhu, the cadres present at the meeting looked at me and I looked at you, and they all nodded in agreement.
Political Commissar Lin Xiaodong was the first to echo: "I agree with the division commander's opinion. Although the Red Party's obstruction of my two forward battalions yesterday had some effect, the overall situation on the battlefield did not change as a result."
"And judging from their silence last night, the number of combat personnel in the other side's troops should be insufficient."
Lin Xiaodong said with confidence, "According to the inference after the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, there should be a special force in the other side's troops. In other words, the Red side should have dispatched their most elite wolf warrior squadron to create the same result as yesterday evening."
"So, we don't need to be too anxious about the temporary obstacles of our two pioneer battalions. Just wait until the war restarts today, and you can completely reverse the local situation in one fell swoop!"
Listening to Political Commissar Lin's analysis, Deputy Division Commander, Chief of Staff Chu Tianshu, Deputy Political Commissar Ma Dewei, and Director of Political Department Zhou Junlong and others nodded to say yes.
As Political Commissar Lin said, it is a pity that the vanguard troops failed to capture the 252 high ground yesterday, which directly established the victory.
But from the perspective of the entire battlefield, the initiative is still in our own hands.
Once the war starts again today, as long as the firepower troops continue to suppress, there will be no problem with the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion and the Armored Infantry Battalion jointly defeat the opponent's mixed force.
The reason is very simple: the firepower intensity of the mixed unit of the Red Army was exposed yesterday.
Except for the special combat squad sent by the Wolf Warrior Squadron, which may be more elite, the other combat troops are not very strong enough.
According to the judgment of the division's armored reconnaissance battalion, the mixed unit of the Red side may be the force of a mechanized and infantry company in addition to a special combat squad.
Teacher C is a mechanic and craftsman, and the organization of the mechanic and craftsmanship is the most common among them.
Even though the Hong Fang's mechanical staircase company has a terrain advantage, if he uses two companies to hit him, he will definitely be eaten steadily.
More importantly, in yesterday's ambush, the Red side never used tanks or tanks to conduct coordinated combat.
Combining the terrain characteristics of the 252 Highland, it is easy to analyze that the mixed unit of the Red Army does not have heavy armored tanks or combat vehicles.
Their ambush at the 252 Highlands is likely a temporary plan for airborne past.
Otherwise, after they took advantage yesterday, they would not have been able to hide in the high ground and dared not come down to fight the final battle.
After Lin Xiaodong finished speaking his inference, Zhu Haipeng nodded slightly.
When Zhu Haipeng received a report from the front-line armored reconnaissance battalion yesterday, he was shocked.
He did not expect that the Red side would have judged so quickly that its combat intention to try to get involved in the 252 Highlands and directly sent troops to obstruct.
The combat power of the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion and the 1st Armored Infantry Battalion were actually stopped by the opponent in the high ground.
This situation was something Zhu Haipeng had never expected in advance.
Of course, the armored reconnaissance battalion also has its own difficulties.
One is dark and the vision is not wide enough.
Furthermore, because they were trying to speed up this time, they did not bring enough heavy armor, so they were slightly inferior in attacking.
In addition, the ambush from the Red side came too suddenly, and the fire battalion failed to rush to provide assistance in time in the rear, which was also an important reason why the armored reconnaissance battalion and others were defeated.
Based on these adverse factors, Zhu Haipeng believed that the war damage of the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion and the 1st Armored Infantry Battalion should be within an acceptable range.
After all, the special combatants of the Red Side are not kidding.
They must be very good at ambushing.
However, while asking the vanguard troops to summarize their experiences and lessons, Zhu Haipeng and the command also discovered some problems hidden by the mixed troops that the Red Army ambushed.
The first point is that the Red Army's troops are insufficient.
Although Zhu Haipeng secretly admired Su Qiyue's "unique vision", he actually reacted so quickly and knew that he would set up an ambush at 252.
However, under the circumstances, the large army of our side had already crossed the 1793 and 1822 highlands guarded by the Red side and was moving deeper into its hinterland.
In this unfavorable situation, Su Qiuyue, who is in a position of guarding the ground, could not risk sending large troops to maneuver and set up an ambush.
In other words, their ambush in the 252 Highland should have been airborne.
In this way, the number of them is greatly limited.
Chu Tianshu and the others inferred that the number of the ambush troops of the Red Party was no more than 100, and Zhu Haipeng fully agreed.
Another problem that follows is very easy to understand, that is, the ambush of the Red Army lacks the support of the firepower force and will be short of limits.
As for the third issue, it is related to the overall situation and is not limited to the battlefield on the 252 Highland.
This issue involves the composition of the W Brigade.
As we all know, the Wolf Warrior Squadron of the W Brigade is definitely the elite in the army.
Compared with the three main squadrons of the Langya Special Forces Brigade directly under the military region, it is no less than that.
However, although the Wolf Warriors are elite, the W brigade is just a synthetic brigade after all; and they are only squadrons after all.
The number of people is their unavoidable weakness.
At the beginning of the exercise, the Red side had already been defeated by its own mechanized troops.
In addition to the one that appeared on the 252 Highland yesterday, the Red Wolf Warrior Squadron has only two special combat squads left at most.
Losing half of its main force, how big a storm can the Wolf Warrior Squadron cause on the battlefield?
It is precisely because of this judgment that after entering the hinterland of the Red Front defending area, Zhu Haipeng no longer shrank and directly released the command center.
Lin Xiaodong, Chu Tianshu and others also fully agreed with this.
In fact, what Chu Tianshu and the others didn't know was that Zhu Haipeng's actions were also a way to soothe the morale of the army and enhance morale.
After the first day of long-distance maneuver, the Blue side has now occupied some of the advantages on the battlefield.
In this case, if the commander-in-chief still hides timidly because he is worried about the other party's "beheading tactics", it is somewhat unreasonable.
Now I, Political Commissar Lin and others came out openly, highlighting the headquarters in front of everyone.
For the soldiers of the C Division, it is nothing more than a guiding light, which can better guide everyone's direction.
While Zhu Haipeng was thinking secretly, Chu Tianshu also said something.
"Teacher Commander and Political Commissar. After preparing for the war for one night today, the Hong side thought that there were some countermeasures. After the formation of our C Division was pulled, the offensive would be launched at any time. I judge that today's war should become fierce."
Chu Tianshu said with a question, "After today's war begins, should we send troops to reinforce the vanguard battalion first? Eat the 252 Highland as soon as possible, which may be beneficial to the whole day of today's war?"
After Chu Tianshu finished speaking, Deputy Political Commissar Ma Dewei nodded with conscientiousness: "I agree with the Chief of Staff. Yesterday, our vanguard troops suffered a loss at the 252 Highlands, and because of the unfavorable terrain and nightlight, they failed to launch a counterattack... I think the Division Investigation Battalion and the 1st Armored Infantry Battalion must be full of anger."
"After dawn, the situation is completely different. We want the soldiers of these two battalions to bombard the mountain with this ball of anger and also to be proud."
Listening to Chu Tianshu and Ma Dewei's discussion, Zhu Haipeng waved his hand disregardlessly.
"There is no need to reinforce the 252 high ground. If you step by step, you will naturally give them manpower and take it down as soon as possible."
After Zhu Haipeng said this, Chu Tianshu and Ma Dewei looked at each other and understood it.
Indeed, the vanguard army seems to have only two battalions, but in fact, there is still the main force of the Jizhuyi regiment to be under the formation not far behind.
Even if the Hong side has a larger ambush troops in the 252 Highlands, reaching a battalion and using the firepower output of a mechanized regiment, it will only be a matter of time before they can be defeated.
In other words, after today's Highland 252, it will definitely fall into the control of its own C master.
Since there is no need to worry too much about the war ahead, Zhu Haipeng naturally wants to maximize his interests.
At present, our "one-character long snake formation" is already quite large, and it is time to attack Hongfang.
If you continue to wait, wait until the Red side recovers from the formation of troops and draws out some of its troops to confront and harass the main force in the middle area. That is really hard to deal with.
Seeing that Lin Xiaodong, Chu Tianshu and others had no questions, Zhu Haipeng said again: "I think the focus of today's war should be the 1793 highland of the Red Side."
Zhu Haipeng said confidently, "I have carefully looked at the topographic map of the entire war zone. Based on my understanding of Su Qiuyue, he would not choose the higher 1822 Highland, but would choose the 1793 Highland as the placement of the main force..."
"So, our main attack point is placed on the 1793 high ground, which will inevitably allow the main force of the Red side to be restrained and not be moved!"
Listening to Commander Zhu's judgment, Ma Dewei exchanged glances with Zhou Junlong, the director of the Political Department, and both were confused.
The two of them are political cadres. Although they have heard of the commander of the W Brigade, Su Qiuyue, they are definitely not as deep as Zhu Haipeng.
Therefore, they didn't know if the judgment of the teacher was correct.
In comparison, Chu Tianshu knows more.
After listening to Zhu Haipeng's story, he immediately nodded and responded: "I understand, division commander. I will go to the Second Mechanical and Bus Regiment and the Artillery Corps to supervise the battle, and let them go to the 1793 Highland formation as soon as possible to carry out a firepower coverage attack."
Zhu Haipeng hummed and then started to say, "Firepower coverage is a must! In addition, beware of the interference of the Hongfang drone."
Chu Tianshu patted his chest and nodded, "Don't worry, commander, I know how to do it."
The W Brigade's drone combat company was already well known to brothers in the previous cross-military exercise.
As the deputy commander and chief of staff of the C Division, Chu Tianshu, of course, has a deep study of him.
