Chapter 5685 Key Troops

“It’s not just about weapons now, the recent actions of the Orumi Federation Army are quite strange.

Originally, they had been able to invade the city, but now they turned to attack the surrounding outer positions.

And the strength is not small, causing a lot of casualties to the Anmore troops, of course, their casualties are even greater.

But I think, is this something unusual? "The actuary Kishi murmured in a low voice.

"What do you think?" Lin Rui asked.

"There are only two possibilities. The first possibility is that they think that this kind of street fighting is too exhausting.

And the station and the airfield are currently under our control, which allows the Anmore Northern Allies to receive a steady stream of support from the rear.

This kind of street fighting itself is very difficult to fight, and when the defender can continue to receive support, it becomes even more difficult for an attacker like the Oromi Federation Army.

So they voluntarily gave up entering Mirto to fight in the street, and instead attacked the outer positions.

Attempt to cut off our support to Mirto first by capturing the outer positions and eventually encircling Mirto.

With reinforcements locked out, food and medicine running out, and even running out of ammunition, it's only a matter of time before they take Mirto. ' said the actuary.

"It's a possibility. But their intentions are too obvious. Also, attacking Mirto's outer positions is not a wise choice.

Because these peripheral positions are in our entire triangular defense system. There will also be a lot of support.

And reinforcements from Pinestone and Cloverfield have unhindered access to the area, and Hill 9 is still under our control. "Lin Rui was silent for a while.

"What about the second possibility?" he asked again.

"The second possibility is much more complicated. This operation may be to give cover to another large operation.

I was thinking that the Orumi Federation Army would abandon Mirto. "The actuary looked at Lin Rui.

"Abandon Mirto? You mean attacking Songshi Town directly?" Lin Rui asked.

After thinking about it, Lin Rui shook his head, "It's impossible. If they dare to attack Songshi Town directly, then Mierto, who is in the middle or even behind them, will become their biggest trouble.

And they couldn't attack Pinestone directly.

The main positions in and around Pinestone Town, General Kassan has been operating for a long time, with many semi-permanent fortifications, and their defensive strength is still higher than Mirto. "

The actuary kept Kishi silent for a while and said, "I'm not talking about Pinestone. It's the Kem River.

In fact, our defense structure in Pinestone, Cloverfield, and Myrtle is very strong, because the large triangle defense system we planned before has basically been completed.

The chances of them trying to open the gap by storming are low. So I wonder if they will switch to attacking the Kem River line? "

"Fortress group along the Kem River?" Lin Rui pondered.

"Yes. Our defense posture is basically a triangle defense area dominated by Pinestone Town, Cloverfield, and Myrto.

The other is the defensive line formed along the Kem River. Although the fortress group on the Kem River is quite strong, there are also many troops there.

However, these troops have been supported from the rear recently, and they are not very familiar with the defensive structure of the entire line of defense.

And this section of the Kem River stretches nearly five to eight kilometers, and we can't fortify everywhere.

What if they were ostensibly storming the outskirts of Mirto, but actually planning to attack the Kem River? "The actuary drew a line on the map.

"If they attacked the outer positions of Mirto, their main force was moving in that direction.

It is very likely that we will come to a wrong judgment. That is—they think that their main force is going to go around here and cut off Mirto's backup, so as to prepare for the storming of Mirto.

This can greatly mislead us and change our defense focus.

At the same time, their main force was only about eight kilometers away from the Kem River.

They could change course at any time and attack the Kem River defenses. Catch us by surprise. "The actuary added an arrow to the line.

His words surprised Lin Rui.

"This is exactly the same as our previous sneak attack on Mirto, which is to build the plank road in the bright and dark.

You mean, the Red Baron wants to do us the same way we did before? "Lin Rui's expression was very serious.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." The actuary nodded Kishi.

"Instead of consuming the attack here, it is better to take this opportunity to attract our attention. Then suddenly turn around to the northeast and attack the front line of the Kem River directly.

The point is that we haven't been able to make an accurate judgment yet.

If we think they are going to attack the Kem River, there is a chance that they will go ahead and attack the outer positions, cutting off the Miltow support.

This is brilliant. "Lin Rui nodded.

The actuary nodded, "That's it, but it's not without traces. The main point is here." His hand pointed to the edge of the map.

"Here?" Lin Rui frowned, "What do you mean?"

"The combat engineer unit of the Orumi Federal Army." The actuary replied, "The main thing is to keep an eye on the movement of this unit, and we can make corresponding judgments.

If the Orumi Federation forces were to forcibly cross the Kem River, the most important thing for them was speed.

For they must avoid the Anmore northern coalition of the fortress group along the Kem River, and react to their actions. So speed is the first priority.

In order to have the speed, they need the bridge troops to pass quickly by assuming the pontoon bridge, so that the troops can pass quickly. "

"So this kind of combat engineer team is the key for them to cross the river." Lin Rui nodded.

"That's right~www.readwn.com~ Although the troops of the Orumi Federal Army are relatively well-equipped in some African countries, they don't actually have many professional engineer troops.

And there are even fewer engineers with bridge capabilities. ' replied the actuary.

"They need to move fast, and they need vehicles. To fight the coastal fortresses, they need vehicles.

In the end, even after the breakthrough, large-scale transfer operations must be carried out, and high mobility is still required, and vehicles are still inseparable.

Relying on the infantry's two legs is indeed not enough. Therefore, they had to ensure that a large number of vehicles crossed the river, and they needed the sappers' boat and bridge units to erect temporary bridges. "Lin Rui nodded.

"That's right. A full-fledged boat bridge force can complete the bridge erection in a few hours and guarantee the passage of mechanical forces, including combat vehicles.

Even if the quality of the Olumi Federation Army's engineering corps bridge troop is almost inferior, it will only take a few more hours at most.

Therefore, this usually inconspicuous force is the key for them to cross the river quickly. ' replied the actuary, Kishi.
