Chapter 1244: Snake Slayer Project

Back at the command post, General Wolman was discussing the next step with his officers. Lin Rui and others didn't participate either, just staying by the side, waiting for General Wallman to finish the task.
After General Wallman finished the arrangement, he turned his head to see Lin Rui, and said slowly, "We have formally exchanged fire with the secret society people just now. We paid the price of two helicopters. But at most they can only erect a pontoon bridge. Time was delayed until the evening. The secret agency’s follow-up troops have arrived, and we cannot stop them from continuing to erect the pontoon."
Lin Rui didn't speak, just nodded.
"I have ordered the deployment of troops on the river bank. If there is a chance at night, I will send a death team with enough explosives to blow up the pontoon bridge. To ensure that there is enough time on the river bank to build more fortifications. "Walman said slowly.
"What if your people fail?" Jiang An frowned.
"If my people fail, we will not be able to withstand their offensive. The line of defense will be withdrawn to the outskirts of Naryi, relying on the terrain and architecture of the suburbs to drag them into the streets. I have ordered the civilians in the suburbs to evacuate. "Walman said slowly. "At the same time, I also ordered to defend the city to the death."
"In this case, it is better to abandon the river beach of Naryi and go directly to the outskirts. At least more casualties can be avoided. Because you do not have the advantage in terms of military strength and weaponry. Perhaps you will emphasize your air supremacy. But relying on those two helicopters, it really can't be called air supremacy." Lin Rui shook his head.
"General, I think the captain's words are correct. You should abandon the river beach and retreat directly to the outskirts of the city. They will regroup after occupying the river beach. At this time, the rocket launchers we have captured can still play a little limited role. And if the enemy and we are mixed. ..." Jiang An couldn't help smiling wryly.
"I understand what you mean, but my deployment on the river beach for defense also has another level of consideration. I can't let the opponent advance too fast. We must continue to attack, delay their actions, and actively seek opportunities." Ulman looked at the map and said, "If my people can delay their actions, then at the latest tomorrow morning, the flanking reinforcements will arrive. At that time, our strength comparison with them will change. Plus we are defensive. It’s a little bit more advantageous on the one side."
Lin Rui nodded and said nothing.
"However, I still need your help." Wallman looked at Lin Rui and said.
"General, I have already made it very clear. We are only responsible for protecting you, not charging for you." Lin Rui shook his head. "Since the establishment of the o2 team, its nature has never been to charge and fight. We are. They are engaged in small-scale special operations, rather than guarding a corner and fighting the enemy in a war of attrition."
"I hired you." Wallman looked at Lin Rui and said.
"So you are still alive." Lin Rui shrugged, "If you die, then it is our negligence. But if you are alive, we will have successfully completed the task. We are not your people, we are just the people you hired. You It’s better to figure out the difference between these two points."
"I know, but..." Wallman frowned.
"No, you don't know." Lin Rui shook his head. "Every member of my team is a carefully selected combat master, but we are not an unbeatable Rambo. They are not afraid of death, but they cannot die like this. I am their captain. They trust me because they believe that I can bring them back alive on the battlefield."
Wallman was silent for a while, "But have you ever thought that once they successfully penetrated the outskirts of the city, it won't take long to break through the defenses I deployed. We are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, so we will be in a heavy siege. At that time? Not only me, but also your brothers."
"So I have said more than once that your strategic deployment this time is bullshit! As for us, what irritates me even more is that even if you make the wrong decision, we still have to save your life. Just because of you. Mom paid." Lin Rui stared at him.
"I am your employer, can you be kind to me!" Wallman roared.
"No!" Lin Rui also didn't want to let it go.
Wallman took a few deep breaths, shook his head and said, "Okay. The enemy is now, let us all calm down."
He patted Lin Rui on the shoulder and told him to sit down and listen to Wolman.
"I didn't think about asking you to fight for nothing. I did this for a reason. Can you listen to me?" Wallman said.
"Say." Lin Rui sat down and said.
"The reason why I prefer to pay two helicopters in the early days of the war to delay their erection of the pontoon bridge is because only in this way, their follow-up troops will be assembled on the other side of the river instead of being able to come directly through the pontoon bridge once they arrive. "Walman drew a circle on the map, "This is their approximate assembly location."
Lin Rui nodded, "Yes."
"And when they set up the pontoon bridge, some soldiers will rush over to seize the beachhead position. But limited to the pontoon bridge's traffic capacity, their other troops will fall behind. In this way, their overall formation will be lengthened. It looks like a snake. The head of the snake is for the troops that crossed the river. The middle section is on the pontoon bridge, and the tail is on the other side of the river." Wallman drew a figure.
Lin Rui looked at him and said, "Go on."
"At this time, as our people retreat from the river beach to the outskirts of the city behind. They will increase their military input and follow the press. Because they can't allow us to stand firm on the outskirts of the city and deploy defenses before attacking. So they must take steps. Step harder.
In this case, the long snake will stretch longer. At this time I need a well-trained, excellent team that is good at amphibious operations. Blow up the pontoon by underwater blasting. Caused them to be cut off. The rear forces could not support the front in time. The troops in front were trapped in the street fighting on the outskirts of the city. So as to allow their forces to reach a greater degree of consumption. "Wolman's pen drew a circle on the map.
Jian An nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, you are going to lead the snake out of the cave first, and then cut them off from it. We form a local absolute advantage on the river bank on our side. The snake head part that surrounds them is attacked here. The enemy forces on the river bank. This is to use their limited mobility, time difference and space difference, to form an absolute advantage in force and firepower in a small area, and to encircle and annihilate. I think this method is feasible."
Lin Rui stood up and said, "This is not his plan. He can't think of such an idea. It's your plan, my actuary."
