Arc of Gunfire

Wang Zhong's side.

As soon as he entered the headquarters of the 401st Provisional Infantry Division, he frowned slightly: "Why are there so few staff members?"

The man whose military rank was chief of staff rubbed his chin and said awkwardly: "There is too big a gap in staff officers. A temporary infantry division like ours usually only has so many staff officers, and there are not enough clerks. They can only be responsible for logistics and strive to ensure that all personnel Teachers can have food.”

Vasily: "General, have you forgotten the situation when we were still the 151st Provisional Infantry Division?"

Wang Zhong remembered that Pavlov almost died of exhaustion at that time, and his already bald head became even balder.

"You can ask the clerk of the local agency."

The chief of staff shook his head: "They have all been hired away. Now, except for the top soldiers, there is a shortage of other talents everywhere."

As soon as he finished speaking, 401 Division Commander Sergey said, "Are you here to reinforce our defense?"

Wang Zhong: "Reinforcements? That's right, but we must first eat up the enemy's vanguard troops under our noses to create opportunities for annihilating a large number of enemies later."

Sergey didn't seem to accept this change at once: "Eh? Annihilate the enemy? Isn't it defense?"

Wang Zhong: "Destroying the enemy is also a kind of defense. If the enemy bursts in like this, it will be fine if there is no disconnection later. If the enemy is disconnected, doesn't it give us the opportunity to concentrate our superior forces to destroy the enemy who is out of touch?"

In fact, several of Proson's attacks last year had problems with disconnection. However, the strength of Ant's troops at that time was too low, and he planned to close the door and beat the dog. As a result, he was defeated by Proson.

In the first week of the war, the former enemy commander keenly discovered a gap and commanded the tank troops to get in. As a result, he encountered the assault artillery battalion assigned to the infantry division. He thought it was a Prosen tank. Ding Ding was fighting for a while, and he shot the artillery shells and did not kill the enemy's assault gun. In the end, the morale collapsed himself and escaped.

Wang Zhong himself once commanded a reverse "retreat", capturing the enemy's supply depot with a feint shot and then turning around and fleeing - this was his first battle in time travel.

Therefore, Wang Zhong knows better than others that the Prosen people will be out of touch.

Find loopholes and quickly annihilate the enemy. In order to quickly annihilate the enemy, you need to quickly gather superior forces in a local area.

Wang Zhong's plug-in is naturally suitable for finding places where the enemy is out of touch. As for quickly concentrating superior forces to fight a battle of annihilation - laughing to death, there was no force at all before, and the concentration was much smaller than that of the enemy.

It's different now.

However, the commander of the 401st Provisional Infantry Division could not understand Wang Zhong's thoughts. He said with a worried look: "We have never learned this. When we were in the military academy, defense consisted of digging trenches and fighting with the enemy repeatedly."

Wang Zhong: "This is of course part of the defense. In fact, I did the same thing last year and compiled several pamphlets."

Commander Sergei: "I actually have your pamphlet and read it, but I was in a hurry when I set out and didn't take it with me."

"But you didn't apply the contents in the booklet to the layout of the defensive positions." Wang Zhong pointed out unceremoniously.

Sergey: "I... didn't think about it for a moment. I just took over this division a week ago, and I was about to come here to set up defenses. I was so stressed yesterday that I couldn't eat. So I didn't even think of following the instructions in your book. Something to do.”

The chief of staff of 401 said: "He fainted from hunger last night. I think our division, from soldiers to officers, is all unqualified. When the enemy comes - we can only bravely use grenades to blow ourselves up against the enemy."

Sergey immediately answered: "Yes, everyone is singing "The Last Courage" these days. I saw that the soldiers were still discussing how to choose the target for self-destruction when the enemy comes."

As the original author of "The Last Courage", Wang Zhong frowned: "No, I didn't write this song to ask you to blow yourself up. I am praising the courage of soldiers who burst out in despair."

The original version of "The Last Courage" "Sand Eating" is a rock song with a bit of post-punk flavor, which is quite sad. But when Wang Zhong copied it, the arranger was Vasily. He had never heard the original version, so he changed it according to the lyrics. A war song.

As a result, the chances of Ant soldiers pulling "glory bombs" before being captured are now greatly increased.

Some priests who accompanied the army even reported that some people chose to pull glory bombs even when they could obviously survive, which deviated from Wang Zhong's original intention.

His original intention was to do his best to survive until there was no way out, and then he would pull the glory bomb.

But now I don't care about that much. In the case of the 401st Division, it is estimated that if the enemy really comes, this division will be a division of self-destruction troops.

Wang Zhong shook his head: "Well, your fighting will is worthy of recognition, so I won't say anything else. I will let my personal guard, Senior Sergeant Major Gregory, guide you in building defenses."

Gregory saluted and turned to leave.

The 401st Chief of Staff immediately pointed to one of his few staff officers and said: "Follow me, tell the sergeant major of the unit to do whatever you want!"

The staff officer trotted to keep up with Gregory.

Just a few seconds after Gregory left, two soldiers from the guard company came in, obviously replacing the sergeant major.

Wang Zhong continued: "My advance battle group should arrive soon. We need to figure out the movements of the enemy's advance troops as soon as possible, and then eat them with lightning speed. Do you have a generator?"

The 401 chief of staff nodded: "Yes, the power supply for telegraph machines and other things is right next to it."

Wang Zhong pointed at Vasily: "Connect our high-power radio station, use the code to send a telegram to the advance team, and ask them to leave here immediately. Try to arrive tonight, and tomorrow we will set off to eliminate the enemies we discovered. Those enemies have new tanks.”

Vasily ran out immediately, but Wang Zhong stopped him: "Wait a minute, we need to contact the air force to ask about the effect of the attack and the enemy's movements."

Vasily returned the greeting and left in a hurry.

Only Wang Zhong and the guards were left, as well as all the senior officials of the 401st Division.

The division commander Sergey hesitated and asked: "Is the same thing true for your 151st Division at that time?"

Wang Zhong shook his head: "Our situation is better than yours. We have non-commissioned officers and officers who have accumulated combat experience, and the basic personnel added to us are all military school students. They are temporarily recruited for emergency response."

"That's it." Sergey was stunned. "We have no experience at all. Suddenly we were told that the enemy had broken through the front line and asked us to set up defenses here. I asked the front army staff officer who gave us the order: 'Who are our enemies?' , the staff said it was the Seide Division, but I later found out that it was the elite of the enemy. "

Wang Zhong immediately understood what Sergey was feeling at that time - it was probably the same as the popular emoticon before time travel: "You go and kill Sun Wukong!" "Me?"

Wang Zhong reassured: "Don't worry, my group army and I are here - although only an advance team came. Of course, at critical times, we will still treat you as a reserve team and fill up the defense line, but we will not let you temporarily The infantry division went to fight the enemy's Asgardian Knights."

"That's good, that's good." Commander Sergei was relieved.

At this time Vasily came in: "Report, the Air Force said that they conducted three waves of attacks. Judging from the wreckage and craters on the ground, the enemy has not moved."

Wang Zhong: "What do you mean by looking at the wreckage and craters on the ground?"

Vasily: "That's what they said. They also said that a P-2 reconnaissance type set off with a camera. They will take photos and send them to us today."

Wang Zhong hesitated: "Send it over?"

Vasily spread his hands: "Don't ask me, I'm just relaying it. I don't know how they deliver it, but the airport is less than 50 kilometers away from us. It will be there in a jiffy."

Wang Zhong thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.

Vasily continued to report: "The advance team has already set off from Yarvik. Except for the group army's front station work team led by the old school director, basically everyone is here."

Wang Zhong: "It's good if the vortex comes. When the vortex comes and confronts the enemy's new tank's armor bullets, we can win. Otherwise, we have to make huge sacrifices to make up for the disadvantage in the armor bomb confrontation."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that Vasily still had something to say, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Vasily scratched his head: "All the agency clerks have stayed in Arvik. Now I am doing the work of the entire staff alone."

Wang Zhong: "You hold on first. When the advance team arrives, the current Chief of Staff Alexander Alexandrovich should arrive as soon as the Guards move forward. Let him do it when the time comes."

Vasily had a black streak and touched his hair: "It's over, it seems I have to find a wife before I become the second Pavlov."

Wang Zhong: "Pavlov had a wife and gave birth to a lot of children."

Vasily shrugged: "Then we found the reason for his baldness."

————

After dark on July 11, the village of Trinka, where Rokossov's temporary headquarters is located.

The vehicles of the advance team drove into the village in a mighty manner.

Wang Zhong looked at the convoy and suddenly thought that if the enemy launched sudden fire attacks like him from time to time, his losses would be great.

Fortunately, all the enemy's heavy artillery should be left behind.

Alexander Alexandrovich, the chief of staff of the advance team, came to Wang Zhong and saluted: "Commander of the Army Group Dava, five Eddy vehicles broke down during the march. I ordered the tractor to tow the one with the more serious malfunction back to Yarvik. Two The vehicle with a minor breakdown is being repaired on the road, and I left a Crusader anti-aircraft gun to cover them."

Wang Zhong returned the greeting and said: "You did a good job. Let the soldiers work harder tonight and inspect the vortex that arrived here. Tomorrow we will set out to hunt the enemy's new tanks."

Alexander: "Yes!"

At this moment, the sound of engines came from the sky.

Wang Zhong cut his perspective and discovered that it was a Wave 2 biplane night bomber.

It looked like it was going to land on the road at the entrance of the village.

Wang Zhong: "Vasily, are you here to send photos? The Air Force said they would send photos, right?"

"yes."

Wang Zhong: "Let the troops at the entrance of the village turn on the lights. If they want to land, they will definitely land on the road at the entrance of the village."

In fact, he was acting. From the bird's eye view here, he could already see the plane landing steadily on the road and gliding towards the village.

It’s not surprising that the Wave 2 can land on such a garbage road. The field airport where the Anters take off fighter jets is not much better than this. A piece of land is flattened and used as an airport. There is not even weeding on the runway.

The Bo-2 biplane bomber's requirements for airports are even lower than those of fighter jets.

When the plane stopped, Wang Zhong saw two pilots getting off the plane.

It's a female pilot!

Wang Zhong switched back to his own perspective and looked at Vasily: "The Wave 2 plane may be flown by a female pilot. You must seize the opportunity!"

Vasily shook his head: "Unless you are not around, General, there is no chance for me."
