All gods, the lord who started with the bright sword

Chapter 393, Suspension of Attack

"Here comes the steaming big white steamed buns, two eggs and one sausage per person."

The soldiers in the cooking class parked their cars and announced to the soldiers who gathered around to prepare the meal.

Two stainless steel thermos buckets were lifted down, one bucket was freshly steamed steamed buns, and the other bucket was seaweed egg drop soup.

The platoon leader guarding this position came to the front, put the eggs and sausages into his jacket pocket, put two steamed buns in one hand, brought a bowl of steaming soup, blew on the heat, and took a sip.

"It's so delicious!"

"That's not true. The ingredients are all pulled from the base camp hundreds of kilometers away. The cooks are still the same. The taste is not bad."

The soldiers in the cooking squad are not boasting. Although the food supply in the field is not as rich as when they were in the camp, the quality is not bad at all.

Which country's army in the world today can match them?
Their Sichuan Army is not only strong in weapons and equipment, but also in logistics support, okay?

The field cooking vehicle can make fresh hot food for hundreds of people in an hour. Even in the high-intensity battles in the past few days, it has ensured sufficient supply of hot water and hot meals.

The platoon leader smiled, said hard work, and called the soldiers behind him to have dinner.

He swallowed an egg with two mouthfuls of steamed buns, and another mouthful of soup. He sat on a stone against the wall and devoured the last sausage.

The speed is so fast that I thought the starved ghost was reincarnated!
The soldiers of the cooking squad who finished eating called him: "Platoon Leader Liu, there are still steamed buns and soup, do you want some more?"

"No, it's enough to be full, and you can't fight if you're too full."

Platoon Leader Liu got up and walked to the company headquarters in the next block behind him.

When I was in the Central Army, it was a luxury to have enough food.

Whenever I have the opportunity, I rush to eat, and eat to my death. The habit of gobbling meals is also formed at that time.

What you hold in your hand is not necessarily yours, what you eat in your stomach is yours.

I have never been hungry when I came to the Sichuan Army, and I can’t change the habit of rushing to eat before I can, and I probably won’t change it in this life.

When platoon leader Liu arrived, the other two platoon leaders had already arrived. The company commander glanced at him and directly assigned combat tasks.

The company commander's surname is Ma, he is thin and small, but his nickname is Ma Datou.

He can become a company commander because of his daring to fight, his brain capacity is really not high.

After being promoted to company commander, I learned it in a short-term training class, and I probably learned a tactic: bomb, bomb, bomb!
This important building may be hiding an enemy, blow it up with thermobaric rockets!
There are enemy barricades on the cross streets, call for tanks to blow them up!

Enemy snipers are hiding on the roof, blow it up with grenade mortars!

All in all, wherever there are enemies, they will be blown up, and the enemies bombed with shells will be smashed to pieces.

As for what they don't understand, they are responsible for carefully searching and moving forward, finding out and killing the enemies hidden in the ruins.

It sounds simple, but it is the most desperate job.

Because you don't know where the enemy is hiding, they will send you to the sky with a bullet or a grenade.

Wearing heavy bulletproof vests and bulletproof helmets is unavoidable.

"What, you want to push forward three streets today?"

The fifth platoon leader was furious when he heard the order: "Company commander, are you kidding? This is impossible, absolutely impossible."

Company Commander Ma asked puzzledly: "Didn't we advance three streets every day before, why is it impossible?!"

"Can it be the same?" The fifth platoon leader stared and refused to give in. He was responsible for failing to complete the task.

The platoon leader Liu echoed the bitterness: "Company commander, we had 34 people in the platoon before, and seven people were killed in battle, and eight were seriously injured to the rear hospital.

Now there are not even [-] people, and they have been downsized into two classes.

To add to your dignitaries, you said there was none, and I admit it.The soldiers in the platoon could not go through the line of fire with minor injuries, and they were all carrying it hard.

Now you want us to break through three blocks in a day, and when the fight is over, I'll be demoted directly to be the squad leader. "

Casualties were about the same for each platoon, roughly one-third lost.

Company Commander Ma glanced at the sixth platoon leader who hesitated to speak: "Do you think I don't want to give it to you? I asked the battalion commander to ask for someone, but the battalion commander said he didn't have any either.

Our Sichuan Army is expanding rapidly, and there are not many supplementary soldiers. It has already replenished the previous battalions that suffered the most losses, and by now we have no more.

I'll let the company's clerks and orderlies go with you with guns on their shoulders.

For the rest, you just overcome it. "

When the conversation got to this point, if they asked for supplements, it would appear that they were embarrassing others.

The leader of the fifth platoon said nonchalantly: "Company commander, don't mention adding two people, even if you fill up all three of our platoons, you won't be able to push three blocks today."

Company Commander Ma was also annoyed when he heard this: "How do you say this, you want to disobey orders!"

"Then I dare not." The fifth platoon leader shrank his neck, the crime of disobedience is so big, it is enough to lose his head, how dare he accept it.

But if you take the task in a muddleheaded way, you won't be able to please in the end.

The fifth platoon leader said solemnly: "Company commander, we will definitely carry out your order, but I will say the ugly words first.

It's not that we don't work hard, it's that the density of the enemy has increased, and the difficulty of advancing has more than doubled. "

At the beginning, the Japanese army still had room to retreat. Now that half of the city has been occupied, the scope of the Japanese army's activities has become smaller and smaller.

If we retreat further, where can we retreat?
I can only jump into the sea.

The little devil wanted to board a ship and retreat from the pier, but was blown upside down by the artillery.The scouts' drones took pictures and inspected the situation and said that the pier was full of dead bodies.

In the single block, the number of little devils hiding in the ruins of buildings has increased.

Undoubtedly, it has increased the difficulty of clearing and suppressing.

Platoon Leader Liu nodded, and then said: "The frequency of the little devil's night attack and counterattack has also increased.

Last night, my squad took turns to be vigilant, repelling one medium-scale and five small-scale sneak attacks.The brothers are still breathing heavily, and they don't have the energy to fight without a half-day rest. "

The sixth platoon leader said the same situation.

Their combat effectiveness has been weakened due to their reduced numbers and lack of adequate rest.

But there are more enemies to face, and because the enemies have no escape route, they are more and more stubborn to fight to the end, which is a way of fighting to the end.

The combat effectiveness of the enemy in disguise is enhanced, and our combat effectiveness is weakened.

I still want to advance as fast as the previous two days, but I can't do it at all.

After listening to the complaints of the three infantry platoon leaders under him, Company Commander Ma realized how difficult the next task was.

He suddenly frowned, regretting that he had put a guarantee in front of the battalion commander.

He also came to his senses belatedly, why did the battalion commander look at him that way when he took the task.

It is estimated that he is either a big boy or a fool.

Plato Leader Liu persuaded: "Company commander, you can't talk to the battalion commander about the difficulties, and reduce our company's tasks by half. The brothers have worked hard, and it is still no problem to advance one and a half blocks."

"Sit back the shit you pulled out, I can't afford to lose that person."

Company Commander Ma gritted his teeth: "Where is the most dangerous place, I will take the company headquarters there, and if we risk our lives, our company will complete the task."

Company Commander Ma used to be the most desperate, and everyone admired him very much.Having said that, there is nothing more to say.

The three platoon leaders agreed and decided to go all out.

At this moment, the correspondent came over holding the intercom: "It's our battalion commander."

Company Commander Ma took over the intercom: "Yes, yes, I am holding a combat meeting, each platoon will issue a military order, and the task must be completed."

"What, instead of pushing forward today, I changed it to rest, why?"

After hanging up the intercom, Company Commander Ma was in a daze.

The three infantry platoon leaders looked at each other, and it must be a good thing to rest for a day without pushing desperately.

They couldn't even catch their breath.

But why did the above change their mind?

Company Commander Ma took the initiative to solve their doubts: "The regiment came from the base camp, sympathizing with the hard work of our officers and soldiers, and specially issued this order.

Anyway, you can catch your breath today, each of your platoons should consolidate your positions. Although you won't push forward, you can't let the enemy counterattack and lose your position. "

The fifth platoon leader, who was still blushing from the debate before, laughed: "Company commander, don't worry, if anyone dares to lose the position, I will shoot him."

Tuan Zuo lost his position when he first came, not showing his face, but showing his butt.

Nobody is that stupid unless he doesn't want to.

Li Yunlong stood on the city wall, still dazed by the wind.Chen Datuan came as soon as he came, but he changed his order as soon as he came, which caught him off guard.

In Xinyituan, who dared to deny his orders?
Oppose him!

It's really different in the Sichuan Army.

It wasn't Li Yunlong who brought up the troops with his own hands. As soon as the leader's backbone came, they all rebelled immediately, and his deputy commander became a puppet.

It is true that Li Yunlong is upset, and he also knows that this is the case.

Even when the brigade commander came, the Sichuan Army was also treated in the same way. No one's prestige could compare with Chen Hao, who led the troops with one hand.

What Li Yunlong was most upset about was that Chen Hao rejected his order as soon as he came.

Why!Is there a problem with his order?
It was the first time for Chen Hao to see the ruined city of Yangon. It was neither good-looking nor glorious, but it only verified from the side how strong the artillery fire of the Sichuan Army was.

To turn a city into ruins, a large number of shells were thrown.

Chen Hao suddenly said, "Old Li, do you think that I overruled your order and need to seize your power and pick peaches?"

Li Yunlong shook his head: "I really haven't thought about it that way. For example, I am a day laborer, and you are the landlord. How much wheat is cut in the field, it is all yours, as long as the wages are paid on time."

The metaphor is very appropriate, but Chen Hao can also hear the dissatisfaction in it.

Chen Hao turned his head to look at him and said, "Actually, I really don't want to come, it's so easy to wait for the victory news in the base camp.

Is there anything I can't believe about you, Lao Li, commanding troops to fight?I haven't pointed fingers before. "

Li Yunlong really had to admit that the autonomy Chen Hao gave him was not so great.

Most of the troops of the Sichuan Army were under his command, and the logistics were desperate to transport ammunition to the front line, and whenever the aircraft support was needed, they would set off immediately.

No one has put a magic spell on him like the brigade commander, and he can hit him as he wants.

Li Yunlong had never fought such a hearty battle in eight lifetimes, and it was enjoyable.

"I have heard the progress of your victory on the front line. The heavy damage caused to the Japanese army is unprecedented."

Chen Hao paused and continued: "However, I heard the price our regiment paid for it from the rear. The number of casualties reached [-], and [-] supplementary battalions were filled in, but the hole could not be plugged."

Just as Li Yunlong was about to explain, Chen Hao blocked him with a wave of his hand.

"I know what you're going to say. Once you succeed, your bones will be destroyed. There is no one who is undead in a war. Compared with the achievements, this casualty is nothing."

"But you have to think about it for me, the number of our Sichuan Army is not large, and the casualties reaching a quarter is already terrifying, which means that the casualties of the front-line combat troops are close to half.

Continue to advance with high intensity, how many people will die in the frontline combat troops? "

Li Yunlong only cared about playing happily, and didn't think such casualties were nothing before.

He commanded about 500 more than 900 in his hands, and the casualties were added one in and one out, [-] people less.

In his opinion, it can be regarded as the loss of one-fifth of the troops, which is not a problem at all.

But it was a new regiment of the grass-roots team, and even if more than half of the troops suffered casualties, they could still fight.The Sichuan Army and the New First Regiment are two different things, half of the casualties leave little combat power left.

This has something to do with the structure of both parties.

The new regiment is a pure infantry regiment, most of them are infantry, and there are very few technical arms such as artillery and signal troops.

When it comes time to fight, the grooms of the cooking squad of the regiment headquarters will also go to the front line with a knife and fight desperately.

The Sichuan Army is different. The front-line combat infantry only accounts for less than 50.00%, and the rest are all artillery, rocket artillery, radar soldiers, and other technical arms.

Once more than half of the troops have been killed or injured, the casualty rate of the front-line combat troops has reached more than [-]% to [-]%.

A large number of companies and platoons have been emptied, and have actually lost their main combat power, and it will take a long time to fully recover.

And if you still insist on fighting under such circumstances, you can only incorporate technical arms or auxiliary personnel such as artillery and radar soldiers into the front-line combat forces.

These soldiers are not only weak in assault ability, but also difficult to adapt to high-intensity combat missions.

Moreover, the loss of technical arms is even more difficult to quickly replenish.

It is not easy for Chen Hao to cultivate technical arms, so he is naturally unwilling to send them to the frontline battlefield to fill trenches for consumption.

Seeing that Li Yunlong was thinking clearly, Chen Hao explained: "I believe you can win the battle, but it doesn't work if you consume too much troops.

Our advanced weapons have made many people jealous to death.There are hundreds of spies spying on the intelligence, and if a stone is thrown on the streets of Mandalay, one out of ten will be hit.

Once we expose our own weakness, our former allies will also become wolves, why not rush forward like crazy? ! "

Li Yunlong just fought the war, but he really didn't expect this.

He doesn't know much about the British and American allies, but he knows a lot about the transportation team leader in Shancheng. It is definitely possible.

Don't say that your own family uses knives and guns, and let outsiders see the joke.

What is the name of the most famous sentence of the captain: to fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside.

It is not surprising to feel that there are benefits.

After thinking it through, Li Yunlong can understand Chen Hao's decision, which is nothing more than wanting to preserve his strength.

"But there are still tens of thousands of Japanese troops in the city, so we can't keep fighting?" Li Yunlong asked.
