Chapter 1700: Land Leapfrog

It took Lin Rui and Jiang An all morning to complete the handover of the defense line with the Anmore government army. They extended the original defense further forward and backward for a certain distance, making the defense deeper. So that after they leave, the government forces can withstand the rebel attack.
After all this is done, it is already noon. Peng Lefeng walked over and said, "The fourth child is cremated. I put him next to the ammunition box in the underground bunker."
Lin Rui nodded, "We will come back to pick him up."
"Do you really feel confident?" Peng Lefeng whispered.
"I don't do things that are uncertain." Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder, "but I can't pack the ticket. Tell my brothers, I can't give you any guarantee. But I can at least guarantee one thing, that is, exhaustion. All my strength allows everyone to live."
Peng Lefeng nodded, "The government convoy is ready. General Kofi has sent us all his capable vehicles, but it is still not enough. Forty trucks cannot drive more than a thousand people."
"I'm trying to talk to you about this." Jiang Kishi patted his shoulder. "Have you heard of the leapfrog tactics?"
"I heard about it, but it was used for airborne operations." Peng Lefeng frowned, "We don't have helicopters."
Jiang An smiled and said, "You misunderstood. Leapfrogging tactics refers to the fact that the leapfrog tactics used by the navy during World War II were first used by the navy when attacking troops surpassed the front line and entered the hinterland. As a jump aid, it is mainly used in landing operations. After World War II, with the improvement of air transportation capabilities, the leapfrog tactic has gradually become the main theory of US airborne operations.
The American invasion of Grenada that shocked the world in 1983 was a typical leapfrog operation. The US military commander abandoned the traditional tactics of landing on the beach and directly relied on airborne troops to cross the defensive positions of the Georgian army to seize the airport. The paratroopers parachuted at an ultra-low altitude of 150 meters, the ship did not anchor the shore, and the soldiers did not wet their boots. They disarmed the Georgian army in just 4 days.
After the navy and air force had the ability to leapfrog, the U.S. military further developed the leapfrog tactics in the context of joint operations and proposed a nonlinear combat theory. This theory is also applicable to army operations, that is, raids based on good mobility. "
"You mean we use these vehicles for long-range raids?" Peng Lefeng thought for a while.
"Yes, although the rebels are crowded and powerful, most of them are infantry. They don’t have many vehicles. In other words, their mobility is not as good as ours. In fact, it means that once we break through their defenses , There is a lot of space that can be used for combat." Jiang An took the electronic map and said, "Look here."
"This is the C-section defense line of the rebels." Peng Lefeng nodded.
"Yes, what we have to do is to use night raids to defeat them. Then take advantage of the vehicle's mobility, first quickly project a part of the force here to attack the flanks of the rebels' B-segment line. Then the vehicle turns back and transports the rest The soldiers continued to leap long distances to the back of the rebels’ D-segment line of defense. Where to fight, continue to return to meet the personnel on the b-flank." Jiang Ji pointed to the map.
Peng Lefeng understood a little, "This is equivalent to the leapfrog of helicopter airborne operations, but it uses vehicles to turn back instead of helicopters to project troops."
"Smart. In this way, the rebels will get a very clear line of advancement. On their map, it will be shown that we first broke through the line of defense c, entered the flank of the line b, and then entered the back of the line d. In this way, they will conclude from this that we are heading south. From section c to the flanks of section b, and then to the back of the defense line of section d. Obviously, we are quickly retreating to the southern border area." Draw a curve by hand on the map.
"Yes, and it seems that we are trying to avoid their defense." Peng Lefeng nodded.
"So the rebels must think that the head of the government army, General Kofi, is in our army, and his purpose is to break through the border and obtain the protection and support of neighboring countries. The rebels will never allow this. It happened." Lin Rui whispered. "According to our moving speed, they can't catch up, so they can only predict our next route in advance and mobilize other troops to intercept in advance.
At present, their most fully staffed and most mobile unit is the garrison in Redstone Town. Only this force can come and intercept when we cross the border. Therefore, the garrison in Redstone Town will be mobilized by us, along their nearest road, to the border area on the south side to intercept, this is one of them.
The other lines of defense that the rebels have broken through will also follow. In anticipation of locking our back road, encircling with the rebels in Redstone Town, this is the second. "
"I understand, with these two conditions. We can turn back halfway, avoid all of them, and surprise Redstone Town. According to their current deployment, they will be completely disrupted by the time. Receive Redstone The news of the attack on the town is too late to come back." Peng Lefeng nodded, "This trick can be called a curious tactic, who came up with it?"
"It's mainly an actuary. I have added some of the details." Lin Rui nodded, "Peng Lefeng, I need you to be responsible for the transportation convoy. You must understand that the key to our operation this time lies in the motorized march. Mobility, in these areas, it is fast and slow, and moves fast. So this transportation fleet is extremely important."
"I understand." Peng Lefeng nodded.
"You may not quite understand it. We actually divided this thousand people into two parts. People can get off the vehicle to fight when they arrive in an area, but the vehicle cannot stop. We must transport our two groups of people back and forth. So, you will Become the busiest and most critical person on the entire battlefield." Lin Rui looked at him and said, "I must ask you to complete every order of mine. No discount, no conditions. Understand?"
"Understood." Peng Lefeng frowned, "But what about the specific route?"
"Cobain will command your specific route through satellites. To be honest, march at night and go back and forth. Without Cobain's support, I would never agree to this plan. Even so, we still have to face many problems. How effective is the execution of these government personnel? Our tricks can be concealed from the rebels, but whether we can conceal the secret society behind them. These are all questions." Lin Rui whispered.
"Don't worry, these government forces are always higher in quality than those of the rebel militia. And our mobility is completely higher than that of the rebels. This plan should be feasible." Peng Lefeng nodded.
