Chapter 4583: Defensive counterattack

After executing the execution of Aimar, Lin Rui immediately notified all army officers and held a combat meeting.
The actuary looked at these rebels, prisoners of war and mercenary soldiers, and whispered, "Presumably everyone knows that our current situation is not very good. Today I will briefly introduce the situation we are facing. Attacking us The enemy forces are dominated by the Orumi Federal Garrison, well equipped and highly trained.
At present, although our army is converging with the troops that entered Redman before, the total number has reached more than 4,000, but many of them are wounded. Therefore, although the number is dominant, it does not have the strength to eat the enemy.
The offensive side may continue to increase its troops. There is no accurate statement about how many people there are. The total investment should be between 1,000 and 2,000. However, the 2,000 people were claimed by the enemy, and in fact, it should be 1,000 people. But they have heavy weapons, artillery and infantry fighting vehicles.
It is not wise to head-on with them. One way I can do is to procrastinate. Drag them so that they can't solve us in a short time and can't effectively control Highway 4. At present, the most reliable method is to rely on small towns on the outskirts of the city for effective defense. "
These officers were also silent. Most of them directly commanded the battle on the front line and knew the current situation quite well.
"At present, the town of Sagunwe where we are located is on a relatively high terrain, located on the west side of Highway 4. It is a large town with three or four hundred households. There is an east-west street and a road in the town. The north and south alleys are surrounded by dilapidated walls, and there is a natural avenue extending outwards at the southeast end of the town. From the topography, it is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
But what we want is not just passive defense, we have to make a counterattack on the basis of firm defense. "The actuary explained, pointing to the map.
"The enemy's armed firepower is above us, how should we fight back?" a mercenary asked.
Lin Rui nodded, "There is always a way. Let's first look at the situation of the enemy. This is the latest intelligence from the reconnaissance team we sent today. The Orumi Federal Forces occupied this area overnight. This location is located on Highway 4. The central area is also a traffic node connecting several other highways.
The terrain in this area is undulating and ravines are vertical and horizontal. It is a high hill surrounded by mountains. The top of the hill is a flat land with a radius of several hundred meters, which is very suitable for deployment. We call it A highland. The north face is a steep cliff, and the bottom is a deep trench. The slopes on the east and west sides are steep. Only the south is relatively flat, which can be used as an offensive route.
Therefore, their position is also easy to defend and difficult to attack. There were dozens of households living on the southern of that place, and a series of village buildings were constructed along the mountain wall. Now, the people in the village have already moved out. Opposite the southern is a higher soil slope, we temporarily call it C highland. They also deployed a lot of manpower there, and they fettered each other with the high ground of Camp A of the Orumi Federal Army.
From C Heights, you can use firepower to control several fork roads leading to Highway 4. Therefore, while occupying this area, the enemy also occupied C Heights. According to the results of our reconnaissance, they also built fortifications in the two places overnight, dug tunnels, removed the thatched roofs of local residents and put them on top of them, and built them into shelters.
On the flat ground of C Heights, the Orumi Federal Army also erected several heavy machine guns. In this way, the Japanese army deployed a tight firepower network on the A and C highlands. This is their basic defensive situation, but their main force is still used for offense. "
"Yes." The actuary nodded. "They assembled most of the teams, between A and C. They are ready to attack us at any time. And our strategy is to lure the enemy into deep and trap them. In the town of Sagunwe.
In order to break the deadlock, they are bound to put most of their troops into the town of Sagunwe. Then we sent a quick assault force to attack the enemy headquarters in a roundabout way. This is a typical tactic of relying on a large number of main forces to contain the opponent and using a small number of elite raids.
The specific attack deployment is that the members of the First Brigade and Anmor's troops are the same, sticking to the front and defending against attacks from the northeast and southeast sides of A Heights. The second brigade is an independent road, defending side by side with the former road from the northwest side of the town.
The Trident is also a separate road, deploying the defensive flank from south to north, and constraining the enemy's left wing on the south side. The second column of the Trident is a separate road, serving as a surprise attack mission, bypassing the enemy's defenses and attacking in a roundabout way from west to east. Sanzong serves as a reserve team. "
The actuary Janggi knew that these Orumi Federation insurgents might not be able to fully understand his combat intentions. In order to avoid misunderstandings and misunderstandings, he only briefly discussed the deployment location and specific combat operations, all relying on temporary command. All combat troops only need to follow orders.
After the meeting, the participating troops quickly marched to the designated attack position. Lin Rui glanced at his watch and frowned slightly. "It seems strange that it took a long time for the enemy to withdraw and adjust. In general, they should complete the redeployment as soon as possible. Then, while it is still dark, launch another round of offensive to maintain pressure on us. This is what happened?"
"We are lucky. According to the report by the reconnaissance unit, the enemy army seems to have lost an important person in our shelling. It is very likely a high-level commander. His death directly caused the enemy's There is a problem with the command system. So they need more time to integrate." The actuary nodded.
"Really? This is really an unexpected gain." Lin Rui smiled, "I just wanted to use concentrated shelling to buy us time to evacuate, but I didn't expect to actually blow up an enemy commander."
The actuary Masanori also looked at his watch, "It's still a few hours before dark. To tell the truth, the redeployment of the enemy forces is very detrimental to our attack. The road was originally very narrow and it was difficult for large forces to deploy. From the current situation It seems that the enemy forces will be more difficult to deal with after the reorganization. The current battle is very likely to be a fierce battle." The actuary Jiangan couldn't help but worry a little.
"It is impossible to change the combat plan, and for the sake of Highway 4, we must annihilate or expel this enemy force." Lin Rui whispered.
After careful consideration, Lin Rui decided to use the dark night to launch an attack in advance. After he told the actuary Jiangan about this plan, the actuary was taken aback.
"Proactively attack?" The actuary said in surprise. "This won't work! As I said, there is a prerequisite for a sneak attack on the enemy's rear command. The premise is that we attract a large number of enemy forces so that we can create opportunities for a sneak attack on the enemy's command. Direct action is absolutely impossible."
