Chapter 4604: Time space

Kassan smiled, "Yes, run away from the general. Sometimes I run for a long time, not only the opponent, but even I think I will only run away. Give me such an important task, do you rest assured?"
"In fact, I also know that your troops are very difficult to fight defensive battles, so I want you to play your role." Lin Rui shook his head, "I only need you to leave a part to assist us and hold our position. The rest of me According to your characteristics, another task will be assigned."
"What task?" Kassan frowned.
"Your boss, run!" Lin Rui nodded.
"What do you mean?" Kassan was a little strange.
"Come and take a look at the map." Lin Rui beckoned to him, "It is almost certain that this is the main direction of the enemy's attack. You are looking at this side, this is the city of Redman where we are now. The main road is Route 4.
If the enemy wants to launch an offensive against us, the most ideal position is to expand in this area, quickly occupy this area, and then advance along this area. "
Kasan looked at the map and nodded, "Very classic assault tactics. Quickly occupy favorable terrain, and then steadily advance. I am afraid that any experienced commander will do this."
"And they are one of the main divisions of the Orumi Federal Army. According to the organization of the Orumi Federal Army, the quarters of the division are in charge of the chief officer of the quarters battalion of the division staff, and the person in charge of logistics is the division logistics officer. Military logistics units are responsible Transport the materials to the logistics assembly area of ​​division-level troops, where they are directly collected by the division logistics unit.
In other words, the third division must handle its own logistics and transportation. And compared to the general Orumi Federal Armed Forces, their configuration is quite comprehensive. Owns more than 20 logistics support units including transportation, medical service, military supplies, and oil.
The Capital Region will directly provide them with supplies. However, these materials must be distributed and transported to the front line by their logistics support. Since the transportation distance is not very long, they usually do not need to worry about replenishment. But by attacking their logistics supply line, we were still able to cause them embarrassment in supplying supplies. Lin Rui explained.
"You want me to take people to fight guerrillas along Route 4 and start with their logistics supplies." Kassan nodded.
"This is just one part. It is to create panic, causing their commanders to misjudge and actively disperse forces to ease the pressure on Redma City." Lin Rui explained, "Look at this map carefully. To these towns around Highway 4.
According to normal logic, these situations are relatively scattered, and the distance from the city of Redman is relatively long. Under normal circumstances, our troops will not operate in these positions. If we are fighting with the Orumi Federal Army's 3rd Division at the same time, these towns will suddenly change. So what would the commander of the Third Division think? "
Kassan groaned, "The front forces encountered organized resistance, while the flanks and rear forces were moving far away. Coupled with the frequent attacks of the logistics and transportation department, it probably means that there are enemy forces in other directions. And because Without knowing the number of enemies, the conservative approach is to slow down the attack and stabilize the rear of the two wings."
"Yes, in this way, they will disperse their forces and effectively relieve the pressure on the brothers in Redmey. Of course, the premise is that your speed is actually very fast. You have to cross Highway 4 quickly. The enemy’s illusion will be caused by creating movement in the area. This is called trading time for space." Lin Rui whispered.
The hammer frowned, "Exchange space with time?"
"Yes. For example, between A and B, the normal marching speed is one hour. If they are fast enough, they will appear in both A and B within half an hour.
Then it is easy for the enemy to make a misjudgment. They will think that there are our troops between A and B. Because it takes at least an hour to normally march from area A to area B, they think we cannot move so fast.
It would not have occurred to us that we would send a highly mobile force to carry out this kind of harassment plan against them, so it was assumed that our two areas were deployed with troops. In order to prevent the rear forces and flanks from being attacked, they must increase their strength in these places. This will undoubtedly weaken their main attack force. "The actuary said.
"But what is the purpose of this? After all, we are still in a passive defense state." Hammer frowned. "Even if the enemy's forces are effectively dispersed, it will only allow us to hold on for a longer period of time. We are. There is still a lack of means to truly defeat the enemy."
"Defensive is sometimes a real means of defeating the enemy. For example, in a boxing match, if you can keep the opponent punching, but you can't cause effective damage. Then you almost win the game.
Because you are always storing your physical strength, and the other party is constantly consuming physical strength while constantly punching. When your opponent is finally out of breath, you don't even need to punch him, just push him and he will fall to the ground. Therefore, in the case of the disparity in power between the two sides, defense is actually the best means. Lin Rui explained.
"I understand what you mean. It seems that you mean to fight a defensive battle, but in fact, you are fighting a logistic battle. The attack is to disperse the enemy's forces, and these are actually smoke. Your main purpose is Yes, through harassment and destruction, the other party's logistics supply has problems.
And the forward force that bit them in the front, the flanks and rear harassed them so that they did not dare to let go, and they ensured that they could not leave them casually, and could only increase consumption. The entire division was nearly 20,000 people, and they arrived here in a rush, carrying a limited amount of supplies.
After just one or two days, we need to replenish them through the Capital Region, and then we will kill their transportation and supply fleet. It will soon plunge them into embarrassment. "Kasan nodded.
"Yes, the rainy season has just passed, and the next period of time will be a long dry season. In such arid areas. They can support for several days without food, but if there is no water, this entire division will persist for a day or two. Not going down." Lin Rui nodded, "And to solve this problem, they have only two choices. One is to take Redmare, and the second is to occupy Murono."
"Murono?" Kazan frowned.
"Yes, there is enough water in the nearby upstream reservoir even in the dry season. After the Orumi EFF can't take Redmai in a short time, occupying Murono is their only viable option. And this will Disperse their forces further." Lin Rui nodded.
