Chapter 595 Drop bombs and destroy artillery positions!
"Keep talking!"
Wen Ganerlun waved his hands vigorously and urged impatiently.
"Yes! Commander!"
"Who knew that the enemy's Shinichi Air Force sent 100,000 elite troops from the Second War Zone using transport planes, and they arrived at the battlefield in less than a moment!"
"But this is not the most frightening thing. The most frightening thing is that the enemy has sent a formation of fifty armed helicopters!"
"They have absolute air superiority and are launching all-round, no-dead-angle attacks on our troops from a high position!" The communicator swallowed subconsciously.
"The enemy's New Second Air Force sent 100,000 elite troops from the Second War Zone here using transport planes?"
"A formation of fifty armed helicopters attacked our troops?"
After hearing this, Wen Ganerlun seemed like a deflated ball. He slumped down in the chair, his eyes dull and his face pale.
"That's right, Commander. Although the enemy only has fifty armed helicopters, they are equipped with machine guns and heavy machine guns, and they dropped a large number of bombs on our positions!"
"In a short time, our artillery and heavy machine gun positions were quickly destroyed!"
"Under such a fierce attack, our positions were completely turned into a sea of fire, and the casualties were extremely heavy!"
"According to subsequent analysis, it is roughly estimated that the enemy's armed helicopter formation is equivalent to a reinforced heavy artillery regiment, and its firepower is even more fierce!" The communicator seemed to be imagining the tragic scene in his mind, and could not help but gasp.
"The enemy's armed helicopter formation is equivalent to a reinforced heavy artillery regiment?" Wen Ganerlun heard the communicator's words, as if he didn't hear clearly, and muttered to himself, "Is the firepower even greater than that?"
"Yes, Commander!"
"This is the reason why our troops suffered a miserable defeat despite having an absolute advantage!" The communicator nodded and answered with certainty.
"Commander-in-chief, no one expected that the enemy would send out another fleet of armed helicopters with such fierce firepower!"
After the communicator left, the deputy next to him couldn't help but gasp.
He was secretly shocked at the strength of the Xia State. He never expected that the previously impoverished and weak Xia State army could actually develop an armed helicopter in a short period of time and form a formation of fifty armed helicopters.
Fortunately, there are only fifty planes. If there were five hundred, I'm afraid the entire army led by Baltu would have been destroyed by now!
"Ok!"
"It seems that Xia Country's industrial level is no longer what it used to be!"
"Of course, all this is thanks to the Fengtian Arsenal of Xia State. The shipyard under this arsenal can even produce large ships with a displacement of more than 3,000 tons!"
"It's no surprise that armed helicopters are produced nowadays!" Wen Ganerlun said with emotion after a long sigh.
All this information was summarized for him by the intelligence department, so he had more or less some understanding of the basic situation of the Xia Kingdom's army, especially the New First Front Army, but it was not so comprehensive.
"Yes! Commander!"
"Fortunately, the reinforcements from Xia Country were not many, otherwise Marshal Bartu's troops would have been completely wiped out!"
"Now that things have developed to this point, how should we respond?" After a brief pause, the deputy asked tentatively.
"Send a telegram to the commander of the Bear Country, Silin, immediately and inform him of the entire battle situation!"
"Also, draft a telegram to Marshal Bartu, ordering him to stay where he is and closely monitor the movements of the Xia army along the border. There must be no mistakes!"
After hesitating for a moment, Wen Ganerlun gave a loud order.
"Commander, should we tell Commander Silin about our defeat now?"
"If he blames us like this, then we..." The deputy was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted.
The commander of the Bear Country, Silin, had been feeling aggrieved because of the fact that Bartu had been slow to enter the territory of Xia.
And now, I am actually going to take the initiative to send him a telegram?
If Commander Slin were to hold anyone accountable, I'm afraid this matter would be in big trouble!
"At this point, we can only leave it to fate!"
"The intelligence system of the Bear Country is also very complete. Even if we don't tell him now, Commander Slin will know it sooner or later!"
"In fact, defeat may not be a bad thing for us!" Wen Ganerlun hesitated for a moment and shook his head vigorously.
"Commander, defeat may not be a bad thing. What do you mean?" the deputy asked with a puzzled look.
"How come you are so smart all your life but so stupid for a moment?"
"If our strength is insufficient, Commander Slin of the Bear Country will definitely send out his own troops to attack!"
"In this way, we can avoid having too deep a grudge with Xia Country and take the opportunity to preserve our strength."
"For us, why not do it?" Wen Ganerlun said with a rare smile on his face.
For him, the most important thing is to keep his position as commander-in-chief. As for the big principles like family and country, or defending the country, the most important thing is to keep his position as commander-in-chief.
He was too lazy to listen!
"The commander-in-chief has a far-sighted strategic vision!"
"I admire you!"
The deputy quickly apologized with a smile.
Once Commander Silin no longer asks his troops to invade Xia State, their goal will be achieved. As for the issue of face, they can no longer care about it now!
"do not talk!"
"Hurry up and pass the order!"
Wen Ganerlun waved his hands vigorously to interrupt.
"Yes! Commander!"
The deputy agreed and turned to leave the headquarters.
......
The headquarters of the Bear Country.
At this time, Commander Slin was holding a pipe in his mouth, sitting with his legs crossed, smoking leisurely.
As he puffed out smoke, the whole room was suddenly filled with smoke, adding a bit of mystery to Commander Slin's figure.
Just a few hours ago, he received a telegram from the headquarters outside Mongolia.
The telegram claimed that 350,000 troops from outside Mongolia, led by Marshal Bartu, had arrived in the territory of Xia.
Its vanguard, the 21st Army, took the lead in opening the way and engaged in fierce fire with the three divisions of the 49th Army of the Xia Kingdom.
In less than half an hour, the three divisions under the 49th Army could no longer hold out and were defeated all the way, while the 21st Army outside Mongolia was pressing forward step by step.
In addition, the 17th Army, led by Marshal Bartu himself, has launched an attack from the enemy's flank!
It is estimated that it won’t take long to completely wipe out the three divisions and 49 troops under the enemy’s th Army!
