Chapter 886, Waiting for Ren Xiaosu
As the six main units of the Spark Troops advanced towards the northern forest, the huge infantry units looked exceptionally spectacular under the cover of the E-33 armored vehicles and E34 tanks.
The Fire Seed Troops formed a hierarchical order of advancement in the wilderness, tens of thousands of troops were densely packed on the ground, causing a surge of excitement in the hearts of those above the Great Wall who were watching the advance of the troops, this was the power of the humans in the Middle Kingdom.
Because of the missile bombing, the forest lit up a mountain fire, but at this time the sky drifted up the first rain in the spring, this mountain fire has not had time to form a fire, it was doused.
At this time, the third division did not attack with the whole army like the other main force, but only sent out a reconnaissance company, and an infantry brigade, just exactly like yesterday.
Ren Xiaosu curiously asked P5092 why this arrangement was made, and P5092 replied that the 3rd Division’s main force had always been the artillery units, and the artillery units were best at fighting positional battles, so in this kind of fast advancing battle, the artillery units would become a liability.
Therefore, instead of carrying a liability, it would be better to let the artillery units play their greatest role at the Great Wall.
P5092 still had some uneasiness in his heart, in case there was any problem in the north, the artillery unit on the Great Wall could be used as a base for the troops to retreat and provide cover.
When he was about to enter the forest, P5092 suddenly ordered the armored car Ren Xiaosu was in to stop, and he specifically came to the side of the car and said to Ren Xiaosu, “I need you to keep your communication open at all times.”
Ren Xiaosu was puzzled, “Why?”
“Because I need to borrow your knowledge of the barbarians, your knowledge of the wilderness to fight this battle,” P5092 explained, “In the previous battle at Boulder Mountain, and also yesterday’s battle, I realized that your anticipation of the barbarians has been beyond imagination, so I need you to provide some help in this battle. ”
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, “But you’re the commander.”
P5092 shook his head, “What a commander has to do is not to be a one-man dictator, but to utilize all useful resources, intelligence, and people to win the war.”
Commanders were never omnipotent, getting intelligence he wasn’t as good as scouts, fighting head on he wasn’t as good as T5s, but the reason why P5092 was able to become the best amongst the senior generals within the Fire Seed was precisely because he was good at borrowing strengths.
Previously in the Boulder Mountains as well, he thought that he couldn’t solve the problem of the barbarians sneaking up on the barracks very well, so he directly applied for a special force from outside the Third Division to carry out this mission.
Ren Xiaosu thought that this kind of modest habit was actually very good, war is very realistic, even if you insist that you can handle everything, but the “results” will not accompany you in the drama.
P5092 suddenly said, “Moreover, the front battlefield needs two snipers for fire suppression, so I’ve just seriously thought about it, you and Little Hibiscus girl with the reconnaissance company, those reconnaissance companies will become a burden to the two of you, so it’s better for you to act alone.”
In the armored car was also sitting the company commander of the scout company, T40219, who was somewhat silent and speechless when he heard his officer say that the scout company was a liability, although he also knew that this was the truth, but sir can you keep your voice down ……
The reconnaissance company was definitely not a liability for the Fire Seed Troop, but the soldiers of the reconnaissance company all had a number in their hearts, and if Ren Xiaosu was with them, it did seem a bit of a bind.
Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaoguan jumped out of the armored car and said, “Good, then the two of us will go alone, I also think this is better.”
Only in this way could he and Yang Xiaoguan wander through the forest with impunity, becoming battlefield ghosts with the smallest target.
P5092 watched Ren Xiaosu and the two of them leave, and when they left, Ren Xiaosu also took with him a map of the command headquarters, which was labeled with the numbers of the various terrains, making it convenient for Ren Xiaosu to provide information directly by number.
The war has begun, the forest roars, the usual quiet forest seems particularly lively, the birds on the treetops have long been all startled into the sky, flying towards the distance.
Spark’s six combat units are numerous, originally that old man of Spark ordered P5092 to command this battle, but in fact Spark also did not issue the official appointment of the temporary commander-in-chief of the red head document, so P5092’s command only stays at the level of formulating the battle plan, once the war began, other P5 senior generals are no longer subjected to his moderation.
In this war, several senior generals had the intention to compete for the position of Group Commander-in-Chief, which was the reason why everyone had previously targeted P5092, not wanting him to continue to receive the credit alone.
But now, they realized that P5092 had only brought out an infantry brigade, how could he still grab the credit with the others? For a while several senior generals had a feeling of relief.
The number of an infantry brigade was a lot, but in front of this war it was slightly smaller.
In the eyes of other senior generals, other combat troops are all firing on all cylinders, your third division is only an infantry brigade, the credit you can achieve can’t be compared to all of us at all.
Therefore, many senior generals even felt that P5092 was a sign of weakness, not intending to compete for the position of commander.
The six main units of Spark had to conduct hourly battle briefings, so that each unit could be informed of the battlefield in a timely manner, and have a macroscopic view of the battlefield.
Just after the first hourly briefing, the other senior generals realized that the 3rd Division Infantry Brigade’s marching speed was slower than the other units.
All the other combat units were moving forward quickly in the hope of gaining credit, but the Third Division was in no hurry at all.
During the second hour of the battle briefing, the other combat units had already begun to contact the Expeditionary Corps head-on, and the number of kills and casualties had begun to appear in the briefing.
However, some other P5 senior generals suddenly realized that the third division’s side was still at zero, regardless of the number of kills or casualties.
It is as if this third division is coming over to observe, you guys fight your own, we just look ……
The other senior generals said to themselves, could it be that P5092 really has no intention of competing for the position of commander, and that this is a gesture of active retreat after being targeted in the meeting?
In fact, it is not important how many enemies the third division actually killed, what everyone cares about is P5092 s attitude.
But this is good, if P5092 doesn’t fight, everyone will have one less strong competitor.
At this moment, P5092 is sitting in the command car to rest his eyes, the infantry brigade after entering the forest, but also slowed down the speed of the march, a side of the adjutant are almost anxious to know that P5092 in the future, if he became the commander, he may also be able to mix a main force as a full-time officer ah.
But if P5092 is not in a hurry, it’s useless for him to be in a hurry.
“Sir, the other troops can all fight,” the adjutant reminded at the side: “We originally have fewer troops than the others …….”
“I’m waiting,” P5092 said without opening his eyes.
“What are you waiting for?” The adjutant asked.
At this time, Ren Xiaosu’s calm voice came from the communication channel that had been quiet, “Advance towards position A17, then turn to position A21 for an ambush.”
