Chapter 1098: Twenty-one. Clash into the door of Sedan (10)

When formulating a combat plan, you must consider various possibilities, including the worst-case scenario, and prepare various plans according to your own conditions. Even if you cannot formulate a strategy for the first good, you must at least prepare a positive strategy for the second best.
Li Lin did this, the Defense General Staff did this, and Roland did the same.
As early as the moment when the true strategic intent of the defense force was predicted, Roland was preparing for the delayed operation in the Ardennes area. In addition to mobilizing the only elite force on hand at the same time against multiple transportation hubs and roads, he also prepared for the delay After the failure of the battle-the 5th Light Cavalry Division.
To be honest, Roland doesn't like this backhand because it seriously conflicts with his personal philosophy. Whether the soldier disregarded the military discipline and circumvented the management system without authorization, or took the lives of others as numbers and cannon fodder, this was difficult for him to accept and strongly opposed. However, there are only so many resources in his hand, and the opponent's schedule will not give him more time to increase his chips. Secondly...
By now, he had decided to move on even if his hands were dirty, even if it was something he could not accept and had to accept anyway.
After all, there is no such thing as a clean war. The so-called war, the so-called total war, was originally a sludge pit that would draw everyone in and fill up with flesh and blood and dung. Even if you can’t accept it, how many people are not involved, can you be satisfied? One hundred thousand people? Ten thousand people? One thousand people? One hundred people? Or is it better to have none?
If so, there should be no war at all.
The reality is that war has always existed. The original workers, farmers, shoemakers, civil servants, hotel receptionists, gangsters, school teachers... were constantly called up, put on uniforms, picked up weapons, and were sent to the frontline to burn towns and villages. Kill people who are also workers, farmers, citizens, civil servants, mass-produce widows and orphans. In return, they put on beautiful uniforms, stars and bars on their shoulders increased, and shiny medals on their chests and necklines. Then continue the same thing until one day dies...
Neither the army nor the 901 anti-tank car battalion battalion and the 902 ranger battalion are neither justice partners nor heroes in the story. Faced with an irreversible fate, they can only dying and struggle as much as they can.
However, this wave of dying struggling is still a threat that can not be ignored for the B Group army that is racing against the clock.
"Report OB, received by Da Miao 1. Repeat, received by Da Miao 1. Finished."
As the electromechanical staff turned off the special frequency of the group army command, Nona's mouth raised a wry smile.
The undisguised operation of the 5th Light Cavalry Division was easily noticed by the Defence Forces Air Force. This cavalry squatting forward on the road was difficult to find if it was not found. It stands to reason that the next is the Defence Force Air Force attack aircraft. 'S daily licking of the ground show, using several rounds of dive bombing and sweeping to send the cavalry back to the west, otherwise it is a large-caliber naval gun of the air battleship to perform a firework show. However, they cannot do this.
"Naval gun shooting will destroy important highways, and the MDS team and attack aircraft have other priorities."
"Did the enemy begin to dispatch reinforcements and destroy the road?"
The voice of the staff passed along the headphones, and Nona, who was standing on the tower, shrugged.
"For the time being, no signs of further movement by the enemy have been found, but there are some abnormalities on the railway line, and they have to deal with the problem there first."
Colonel Lazarus was brave but not an unscrupulous generation. If he thought that this rare talent in the army of King Charlemagne would only "cut the sword to the chariots of ghosts and beasts", he would be too underestimated.
The colonel knew that once the cavalry began to gather, the most direct threat would come from the air. The enemy who had command of air control would flock like a vulture who had found a big meal. The caller will be wiped out without leaving any residue.
Even if the air force’s encirclement and interception are breached, it will be faced with terrible artillery coverage. According to intelligence, the enemy forces that attacked Arden are equipped with a large number of self-propelled artillery. It is easy to create a barrage sufficient to blow up the entire cavalry division.
It is necessary to create a situation where the other party cannot shoot unwillingly, and take this opportunity to narrow the distance with the enemy, and then use the familiarity with the terrain and environment to ambush the enemy armored column, as long as several vehicles are destroyed and a period of time is destroyed. Railroad tracks or a few bridges will drag the opponent's pace forward, and make time for the rear to adjust the deployment-this is the task assigned to the 5th Light Cavalry Division by Roland.
In order to achieve this situation, Roland also prepared for the Colonel La Salle, which had just been developed, had not yet time to formally install and distribute the numbered killer-the railway torpedo "Icarus".
Well, the so-called railway torpedo is actually a modified locomotive. Not only are a lot of explosives piled up in the locomotive and coal cabin, but also a standard anti-tank weapon developed by the Army, "Spur and Explosive Thunder (Thunder Body and Thunder Rod The thunder rod is a wooden stick, the shell of the thunder body is a cone made of cement, the inside is nitrocellulose filled with hollow shaped charge, the top of the cone is connected to the thunder rod, and the bottom is equipped with three nails. The bayonet is similar, pull out the safety pin on the top of the thunder rod, and then insert it firmly into the tank, so the user and the tank are exploded together. To ensure the effect, generally start from the side and back~EbookFREE.me ~ Three pieces in one outfit. In order to prevent premature detonation by enemy fire, additional armor was added to the front and top of the locomotive. In theory, unless directly hit by a large and medium caliber artillery, this unmanned locomotive (start After the driver jumped off the car), he would continue to travel along the railway until he ran out of fuel or hit a certain unlucky ghost.
It is difficult to say whether this invention of patting the head is practical, but it is indeed a trouble that cannot be ignored for the B Group Army Group. The efficiency of railway transportation is much higher than that of road transportation, and it will not be affected by weather and terrain. As long as a complete railway system can be obtained, the road congestion under the B Group Army Group can be greatly relieved, which is why they are so urgent. One of the reasons to seize Bastogne.
With this level of consideration in mind, the command headquarters will inevitably have some mouse control devices. It is obviously impossible to let those mobile bombs go, but it will destroy important railway facilities. Although preparations are made in advance to deal with the destruction of the railway, the headquarters still wants to get a good railway as long as there is a possibility. You know that they have been delaying a lot of time, and now every second is extremely precious.
After some controversy, the headquarters of the army group decided that the Air Force should continue to perform battlefield cover and reconnaissance missions. It dispatched a group of elite engineers and commandos to cooperate with the MDS forces to deal with the locomotives full of explosives, and excluded the enemy engineers along the route to prevent them from fighting. Demolition of railways and bridges.
As for the cavalry unit, it will be handed over to the Balk battle group.
