Chapter 4974: Worst situation

The terrorists of the Jihadist League and the local anti-terrorist coalition forces in Western Sahara launched what can be called the largest mutual shelling since the outbreak of the Western Sahara War in Emiri Kli.
In this artillery battle, Lin Rui's helicopter aerial reconnaissance played an extremely critical role. The precise positioning of artillery reconnaissance made this artillery battle a one-sided situation.
Intermittent shelling by both sides lasted more than three hours. But the result is obvious. The gunfire of Emiri Kli’s jihadist organization gradually became thinner.
Because their rocket artillery unit suffered heavy losses, the artillery vehicle was destroyed. The members of the jihadist organization are fixing the rocket launcher on the iron frame for a single simple launch.
But this kind of counterattack is actually just a form, and it doesn't matter at all.
Because the rocket launcher itself is to cover firepower strikes, precision strikes are not the strong point of this weapon, rockets fired simply like this. There is no accuracy at all.
After destroying the enemy's artillery, Lin Rui breathed a sigh of relief. "This time, the two helicopter pilots and the artillery reconnaissance squad have done a great job."
"Yes, although the enemy's shelling continues, it is obvious that effective command has been lost. The shooting is scattered and the firepower cannot be concentrated.
It shows that their organizational system has been completely broken up, and the sporadic artillery units have lost their command and are fighting on their own. "The actuarial means Jiang An nodded." It's time to launch an offensive. "
Lin Rui nodded to him.
The actuary turned Kishi around, "General Hassan, now I order your second and third regiments to launch an offensive frontally and take down outer positions as soon as possible.
In addition, the troops in the two surrounding towns can be recovered appropriately and attack the main force from the side.
Especially for Town C, this area is crucial to whether we can win Emery Kli.
General Quinn, I need your troops to launch an offensive in Town C. Take down the enemy's ring position at this position. "
"Understood." General Quinn nodded.
"When you take the ring position, that is when our general offensive begins. You must take it and hold on there. Our troops will assist you.
The enemy could not rely on this flank ring position, and created the best attack opportunity for Hassan's troops. "The pencil in Lin Rui's hand fell on the map, and he drew a circle heavily.
"Report. Urgent information from the intelligence team." A mercenary hurried in and whispered a few words to Lin Rui.
"What?" Lin Rui was slightly surprised. "How can it be so fast?!"
"What's wrong with the boss?" The actuary turned An and looked at Lin Rui. Lin Rui hadn't been so gaffe in a long time.
"The other terrorist reinforcements of the Jihad Alliance have arrived." Lin Rui frowned. "They are fighting fierce battles with the local armed forces that blocked them."
He walked quickly to the map and made a mark on the map with the pencil in his hand. Once this mark was made, neither General Quinn nor General Hassan's face looked good.
They are all adepts in marching and fighting, and they do so as soon as the marks on the map are made. Immediately estimated the distance of the enemy's reinforcements based on the scale, one hundred kilometers or less.
"What is the number?" General Quinn asked immediately.
"Four thousand, maybe five thousand people. They came from the headquarters of the Jihad League. They bypassed our defensive points and are currently killing them with all their strength.
They should have known the situation here, so they will advance here at any cost.
Armed in those places can't stop them for long. Lin Rui frowned.
"What should I do?" General Hassan gritted his teeth.
"How many people do we still have?" Lin Rui replied, "I mean, how many soldiers have not joined the battle?"
"There is only the camp, but even if they all add up, it is less than a thousand people." General Hassan replied. "I only left one company for this operation. General Quinn has two companies there. The rest are local armed forces."
Lin Rui nodded, and turned to ask the actuary Jiang An, "Where are our troops? How many people can we gather to fight?"
"There are less than a thousand people, and they are currently in this position. It was originally a teaching camp that assisted General Mutombo in training troops. So a large part of them were General Mutombo's soldiers and did not have heavy weapons." General Actuary The shore looked at Lin Rui.
"There is no other way, so call them out." Lin Rui made a decisive decision.
"But they are too far from here, it will take at least several hours to arrive." Actuary Jiang An's expression was also a little nervous.
"It's too late to think about it, so I immediately ordered them to assemble in an emergency and move towards this location." Lin Rui used the map with his finger.
"Wadi Hart." General Quinn frowned.
Because the climate of the Sahara Desert is controlled by the north-south transition of the trade wind belt, many extremes often occur. It has the highest evaporation rate in the world and has a record of the largest area without rainfall for several years.
In addition, North Africa is located on both sides of the Tropic of Cancer. It is controlled by the subtropical high pressure zone throughout the year, and the downdraft of dry heat prevails. The African continent is narrow in the south and wide in the north. The area controlled by the subtropical high pressure is large and the dry heat area is wide.
So there are some dry rivers in the desert, and the Wadi Hart is one of them. This dry river used to be a river that flows from the depths of the Sahara to the Atlantic Ocean. The river runs along the outside of Laayoune, and its mouth is less than ten kilometers north of Laayoune.
Because of the lack of rain, this river has changed from a seasonal river to a dry river since the 1930s, leaving only the dry riverbed exposed on the Sahara Desert.
The location Lin Rui drew was exactly at a certain point on the Wadi Hart.
Lin Rui nodded, "The Wadi Hart is north-south, and the enemy is in the east. In any case, they must cross the Wadi Hart if they want to help Emery Kli.
There is a desert all around, and there is no point in blocking the enemy from other locations. This is the most suitable position for us to build a line of defense. The bed of the Wadi Hart is a natural trench.
We must stop the reinforcements of these enemies here until the battle of Emiri Keli is over. "
"This is not an easy job." The actuarial is reluctant to say. "Rely on some improvised troops to block the enemy force several times."
"But other than that, we have no choice. If we don't do this, the only way is to retreat." Lin Rui turned to look at them, "Imagine when this enemy's reinforcements arrive. And we haven't taken it yet. The situation of Emery Kli.
We will fall into a state of flanking back and forth, the enemy coming from behind, reinforcements will cut off our back, and the enemy of Emiri Kli will fight back.
Gentlemen, the current situation is not the worst, what I am talking about is the worst. "
