"Although we have just evacuated here. But in fact, the logistics team has never stopped working here. Today and tomorrow, a large number of construction machinery will arrive, and they will be responsible for building defense lines and fire bunkers.

Therefore, although we are retreating, we actually exchange space for time. Slow the enemy's advance by giving up two strategic points, while extending the enemy's supply lines. "Lin Rui looked at the officers in the command and said.

"Although under the current situation, the transportation is inconvenient, the communication is difficult, the mobility of the troops is poor, and there are many problems involved in increasing the number of troops. But after all, it is beneficial to the Anmor army fighting in the homeland. So although we all know that this is not a reasonable place. The battlefield, but must always be held tightly." General Hodgson nodded.

"So we have to compete with our enemy for time. Only by organizing a solid line of defense as soon as possible after the arrival of reinforcements can we resist the onslaught of the enemy." Actuary Shogun also said.

In the next few days, Lin Rui and others took advantage of the time they had seized and started to organize defenses on the front line of Scarlo. A large number of construction machinery in the logistics team played a great role at this time.

In this battle, Anmore was at a disadvantage in all aspects, but only in logistics, they were stronger than the Orumi Federal Army.

Because the logistics team is almost entirely members of Trident, and the people they employ. This logistics team has long provided logistics support services to some military powers all over the world.

The rich experience and the mature logistics support system they have adopted allow them to send tailor-made forward units to each combat battalion and company as needed, and the support capability has been more than doubled compared to the past.

The engineering team of the logistics team is almost all skilled construction personnel, and a large number of mechanized equipment can be used to carry out various earthwork operations in a very short period of time.

The construction and deployment are completely in accordance with the plan, and the various units of the Anmore Army only need to cooperate.

On the third day after the withdrawal of the Anmore army, the Orumi Federal Army began to re-enter the surrounding area of ​​the coastal fortress and launched an attack on the coastal fortress. There was the last resistance of the Anmor army.

The Orumi Federal Army bombed the main positions of the coastal fortresses, and the artillery fire also began to carry out continuous artillery bombardment on the city. After the concentrated artillery bombardment, the infantry immediately launched an assault and launched a fierce attack on the coastal fortresses. A day of fierce battle, the Orumi Federation Army suffered a lot, but made no progress. Anmor's army maintained its last dignity, and the few broken troops forcibly blocked the enemy, with more than half of the casualties.

The sky in the distance was constantly rolling with thick smoke and fire, and half of the sky was dyed a fiery red. The night looked dim and dusky. deep. The thunderous explosion echoed dully under the night sky, and occasionally subsided for a moment.

The body was bumpy, and the road conditions were not very good. The road was full of large and small craters, and the road was crowded, which also greatly affected the advancing speed of the Orumi Federal Army.

In the rear, the Anmor Army's headquarters in Scarlo was noisy, and various information reports continued one after another.

Commander Hodgson and Lin Rui were silent as they looked at the "lightning" that cut through the dark night in the distance. There, the Orumi Federal Army was attacking the positions of the Anmor garrison. When the retreating soldiers stammered about the front-line scenes, everyone who was listening couldn't help but change their color in horror, as if the blood splashed and blurred corpses were in front of them. Now Ellesmere Port has become an isolated city, and the prospects of the entire Anmore army left behind are worrying.

Row after row of cannonballs screamed and fell from the sky. The devastation brought by the heavy artillery to the city was simply devastating. When a cannonball fell, broken bricks and tiles flew everywhere, and the collapsed houses were in the rising smoke and dust. , bury the Anmor soldiers who were hiding in the bunker and the civilians who took refuge in the ruins. The terrified civilians looked at the soldiers silently sorting their weapons with cramped and panicked eyes.

For the soldiers, fear is no longer important, everyone is waiting for the orders of the officers, ready to start a **** fight with the attacking enemy. This seems to be the case in all positions.

The coastal fortress positions have completely become a battlefield of fierce killing, and the combat soldiers on both sides are fighting hard. One side is holding on tight, while the other side is on the offensive, shouting and killing the sky.

It's just that this situation won't last long, because in the face of the frantic attack of the Orumi Federation Army, the Anmor army is almost always on passive defense, and no one can change the situation.

The frenzied Oromi federal troops came from a distance one after another, bombarding the Ellesmere Port, which was full of smoke and fire, and tons of artillery shells poured down. In the flames of the explosion and the rolling red and black smoke clouds, fragments flew, and the clouds of smoke were dense.

In some positions, shells continued to fall, and large and small craters appeared one after another.

The city's asphalt pavements were blown to smithereens, and buildings were littered with marks from shell fragments. The craters were overflowing with sewage from the bombed-out city water pipes, filled with turbid red liquid. Houses collapsed under the almost brutal firepower of the Oromi Federal Army.

Among the rubble, the corpses of Anmor soldiers buried under the rubble, as well as the corpses of refugees who escaped the war, can be seen constantly. The Orumi Federation Army and Anmor's rear-breaking troops, who had successively attacked, were desperately killing and killing outside the wilderness. Those civilians who were powerless in the face of the war were killed like a mustard among the bullets of the warring parties, or were killed and injured in the artillery and air strikes of the Oromi Federal Army.

In the indiscriminate bombardment, the Oromi federal forces have more than once frantically bombarded and shelled houses, burying the defending Anmor army in the smoke-swept ruins. At least there are civilians who are anxious and avoid the fire of war.

The horrific battle situation in the coastal fortresses made those refugees who had no time to leave and stayed in Ellesmere Port City worried.

Next, what will Scarlo look like? The panic-stricken Anmor soldiers continued to decline. Under the cover of chariots, the Orumi Federal Army continued to erode the defensive circle of the position.

There were thunderous explosions from the horizon, and there were faint flames in the direction of Ellesmere Harbor in the distance.

In the sky, there was a bleak fog, and there were bursts of huge explosions in the direction of the suburbs in the distance.

Wounded soldiers in bandages and on crutches can be seen everywhere. Under the flames of war, Scarlo, the industrial city of Anmore, obviously lost its former prosperity.

There are far fewer civilians in the bustling crowd on the street than before, and soldiers in twos and threes or a group of patrols passing by with guns can be seen everywhere. The shops that were still open on both sides of the road looked a bit run down, and even some of the shop signs had fallen off, and many more shops were simply closed. The city has now completely become a deserted city.

More than a dozen trucks honked their horns and rushed past the wriggling crowd, disappearing without a trace. This was the reconnaissance force hurriedly withdrawn from the front line. This reconnaissance unit is mainly mercenaries, and is now responsible for front-line reconnaissance. The headquarters must rely on this elite to keep abreast of the enemy's dynamics. These mercenaries are all experienced veterans, not only have good combat literacy, but their individual equipment is much better than other troops.

Now the entire city of Scarlo seems to be full of soldiers. When the reconnaissance team arrived at the headquarters, Lincoln saw two officers in military uniforms waiting there from a distance.

"How is the situation in the coastal fortress?" asked General Hodgson.

"It's very miserable. Except for a few troops who were withdrawn, most of the others were killed. Rachel, who was in charge of staying behind after the break, was killed. He didn't leave the coastal fortress until he died." Lincoln replied. "In order to prevent the enemy from discovering his identity, before he died, he had several of his subordinates bring back his military uniform and rank."

General Hodgson was silent for a while, he seemed to be mentally prepared, but still very depressed.

"This **** Rachel, he makes me look like a **** coward." General Hodgson smiled, but tears rolled down his cheeks. Rachel was his deputy, and this time he took the initiative to stay behind.

"General, condolences. War is like this. Some people die in battle, and some people have to live to bear their responsibilities." Lin Rui patted him and turned to look at Lincoln. "What else did you find?"

"The reinforcements from the Oromi federal army seem to have not arrived. Although they entered Ellesmere Port to besiege the coastal fortresses, they did not attack Bonifacio. It may be due to limited strength. It is temporarily impossible to attack Bonifacio. Joe attacked. But they ordered Edgar's department to attack Bonifacio," Lincoln replied.

"Edgar?" Lin Rui frowned, "How did he answer?"

"He was very slick, took the opportunity to agree to this request, and pretended to start attacking Bonifacio, and he should enter Bonifacio soon." Lincoln replied.

Lin Rui nodded, "That's fine. Bonifacio fought too much in the first battle, so his identity has not been revealed. Now that he has occupied Bonifacio, he is better than Bonifacio in the Oromi Federation. The army is stronger in the hands."

Lincoln replied, "The Coastal Fortress won't last today, but in my opinion, it's unlikely that they will go on the offensive further after they take the Coastal Fortress. It looks like we did buy time."

"Scarlo's defense preparations still have a lot of work to do. Within a week, enemy reinforcements will definitely arrive. But by then, we are almost ready." General Hodgson replied.

"Where are our reinforcements?" Lincoln asked. "When will General Cassan's reinforcements arrive?"

"Tomorrow, the fastest troops will arrive tomorrow, and 8,000 reinforcements will be invested in the initial stage. Together with our original troops and militia troops, the total number is about 20,000. However, the reinforcements of the second echelon may be even larger. A little longer, at least a week away," replied General Hodgson.

"As soon as the reinforcements arrive, they will be mobilized and assigned tasks. We will cooperate with our original troops for defense deployment, and the other wounded must be properly handled. The other is the logistical problem. When we withdraw, we have a large amount of materials at the same time. For a period of time, the logistics team has increased investment in transportation, and we have no shortage of weapons, ammunition and supplies, and it can even be said that they are sufficient. But we have to consider continuity." Lin Rui paced back and forth.

"I'm dealing with all these issues," the actuary Kishi replied. "One more thing, it's about the battle over there in Pinestone Town."

"Pine Stone Town?" Lin Rui frowned.

"In Songshi Town, after the Orumi Federal Army fought fiercely with the Anmor Army for most of the day the day before yesterday, because the right detachment sent by the Anmor Army flank retreated prematurely, the Orumi Federal Army took the opportunity to attack the northwest, and part of it Several important towns nearby have been captured, and there is a great intention to move north along the road, so the right position of this covering force has become isolated.

Considering that the Anmore Army deployed a garrison on the front line, where the 9th Battalion extended the line on the right flank, this troop also withdrew. Since then, only the left and middle positions are left in the outer positions of Songshi Town. . ' replied the actuary.

Lin Rui pondered for a moment, "I'm not surprised at all about the situation of the external positions in Songshi Town. Due to the rapidly changing battlefield conditions, in order to maintain the stability of the defense, the defender must have the ability to respond quickly. For example, once the enemy breaks through, Reserves should be dispatched quickly so that the breakthrough can be quickly closed. The enemy can be eliminated when the enemy is not stable, the gap in the position caused by the enemy can be filled in time, and the deployment can be quickly changed when the enemy changes the direction of the main attack to form a new defense. Direction, etc. ~www.readwn.com~ The key to meeting the requirements is to master a strong reserve team.

According to the requirements of our military advisory group, the principle of formation of the reserve team is often to have sufficient strength and firepower, and even reach a certain proportion of the total strength, and be equipped with a certain number of chariots and artillery, which can independently perform blocking or counterattacks and other tasks, but also have the ability to move quickly. Only by mastering such a strong reserve team can the entire defense system maintain flexibility and stamina. When the defense situation changes, it can quickly and timely restore the original defense situation or enhance the strength of the front.

However, Songshi Town has not established a strong enough reserve team, and almost all the troops that can be used have been assigned the task of defending the position.

This makes it impossible to take timely and effective measures when the situation changes suddenly, and can only resort to the method of tearing down the east wall to make up the west wall, and hastily assembled troops to deal with it.

But it shouldn't be a big problem. Kassan and I have talked about this before, and he knows how to deal with it.

The general purpose of the triangle defense is to cover each other. As long as these three important strategic points are not breached at the same time, it will not be easy for the enemy to take any of them. There's a good chance it's just a distraction. "
