Chapter 4268: Lonely city

"Air raid alert!" A soldier screamed loudly on the position of the League for the Liberation of Western Sahara. There was a huge buzzing sound from the aircraft group in the sky, and countless black spots could be seen from far away in the gray sky, that was the upcoming bomber group. The positions that were still chaotic just now became chaotic, and the soldiers fled in panic and avoided.
Moroccan air support began. Several bombs smashed down with a whistling, one after another dazzling flames rose one after another, and the inflated air waves were clearly visible, followed by a sudden burst of air waves and flames.
In the distance, a truck of the People's Liberation League of Western Sahara was overturned and thrown up, and then fell heavily to the ground. Thick smoke and flames enveloped the town of Mugaya, and the sky was full of Moroccan planes raging.
The flames of the explosion came one after another, thick smoke billowing, and the raised clods smashed down, making the soldiers hiding in the fortifications to avoid the air strikes full of faces.
Some buildings that survived before were tormented again, and some buildings that were already crumbling could no longer withstand the ravages, and collapsed amidst the painful groans.
One after another bombs hit the ground repeatedly, like a heavy hammer, hitting the ground fiercely one after another, regardless of how painful the already-scarved ground was already in pain, and wailed.
A section of the frontal position was directly hit by the bombs that roared down, and the fortifications built on the position were torn apart in a huge fire light, green-grey concrete fragments were flying in all directions, and the broken wood and sandbags were swept high by the explosion. It was thrown out and hit everywhere, and a few soldiers only raised a burst of blood fog and disappeared. This shows the power of the aerial bomb.
Since the Liberation Confederate Army has entered the front line and began to prepare for the general attack on Palimo. Therefore, as soon as the day lighted up, the Liberation League troops had already begun to gather in Mugaya, a town on the outskirts of Palimo. At this time, the town of Mugaya assembled a large amount of troops and supplies.
Jiang Jian has been paying close attention to the fighting situation, and he must ensure that the air strike is at the right time.
"Although these terrorists of the Liberation League are powerful on the ground, they have no air superiority. This ensures that the Royal Moroccan Air Force can bomb them accurately.
And now we must take advantage of the situation to organize a counterattack, regain the lost front line, and hold the enemy. General, I ask you and your troops to start a full counterattack. "The actuary pushed Kishi off the chair and stood up.
General Quinn gritted his teeth and said, "Through my order, order the 2nd regiment to cooperate with the 1st and 6th regiments to immediately counterattack. Regain a line of positions. It must be fast. The enemy is bombed and they do not react so quickly."
The Palimo militia's counterattack began. The cover position of the Liberation League was madly attacked by the 2nd regiment of Palimo. The 2nd regiment stayed on the flanks and did not suffer much loss. At this time, they took advantage of the opportunity of the enemy to be attacked by air. The Allied Liberation Army, which pushed the front to the outskirts of Palimo, did not expect that they would touch On such a hard stubble.
What made the Liberation League troops feel angrily and frustrated was that the unit that stood in front of them was not someone else, and it was the militia unit that took Palimo back from them not long ago.
The Palimo militiamen attacking the first-line position were blocked by the enemy defending the area. The Liberation League defenders took advantage of the constructed positions and used intensive firepower to commandeer and shoot downwards. The attacking militiamen had a clear target and, The attack was ineffective, so the casualties were heavy.
Then Palimo's side threw and fired many bombs and smoke bombs with aircraft and artillery to cover the 2nd regiment's attack. For a while, the suburbs of Palimo rang loudly and fireworks skyrocketed.
In spite of the continuous artillery fire, the enemy troops on the position still resisted, and they had flanking support from the left-wing friendly neighbors, the Palimo militia did not succeed in their counterattack for a while.
But an hour later, the actuary Jang Ki from Palimo asked again for a second air support. The Royal Moroccan Air Force took advantage of the change in wind direction and poured dense bombs, while ground militia forces attacked again.
During the battle, most of the enemy's battalion was sacrificed and most of the front-line positions were retaken. The remaining battle lines are still under the control of the enemy.
Set up in the underground bunker in the city, within the headquarters of the garrison of Palimo, there were continuous reports from the front line. Busy staff officers hurriedly stepped in, and constantly marked the position of enemy troops on the battle map based on the successive reports.
As the temporary commander-in-chief, the actuary looked at the map and kept smoking a cigarette. Vaguely, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.
According to the plan they had made before, when the enemy entered the forward position, the blocking artillery fire would start, followed by the overwhelming multiple firepower intensive firing.
When the enemy forces flock to the front positions, the large and small fortifications, bunkers, light and heavy firepower points, and the fire defense system composed of bunkers, bunkers, and barbed wire that are arranged in the position and in the depth will be divided into multiple layers of far, middle, and near. Intercept and shoot to kill the enemy with all your strength.
The limited variety of artillery and all the firearms of the first line of defense will pour head and face bullets on the enemy troops. In front of the solid third line of defense, the entire position will flow into a river, and Palimo’s land will be Stained red by the blood of the enemy.
But in the current battle, the enemy army is too strong, and the original plan can no longer be carried out. It is impossible to wipe out the enemy outside the city by relying on defensive positions.
Now Palimo has become an isolated city. At first, he and Lin Rui wanted to stay for two or three months, so they built a three-layer defensive net behind the first line of defense. After deploying deep firepower and defensive depth to give the enemy the most damage, the badly injured enemy is attracted to the third-line position and then gathered and wiped out.
Such a plan is nothing more than to lure the enemy to deeply and gradually annihilate the enemy's active forces, but after only a few days of fighting, the Liberation League has advanced to the second-line position. If the air strikes were not in time, they would have regained part of their positions and reorganized their defense lines. The consequences would be unimaginable.
If the enemy forces a forcibly attack, desperately, and then continue to fight, the next step will definitely be tragic street fighting. The defense time of two or three months has now become an extravagant fantasy, and it is not bad to be able to persist for ten and a half months.
Since these Palimo militias have neither formed a full-depth defense deployment in the organization and command of the defensive battle, but also lacked the preparation and ability to respond quickly, it is reasonable that the first-line position fell prematurely.
The air strikes in Morocco will not always occur. Although the enemy army suffered heavy losses, it was more about morale, and the actual combat power was not much weakened. Jiang An frowned, and after Lin Rui led his troops to leave, all the defensive burdens were on his shoulders.
