Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 13661367 A well-deserved medal

 Zhao Chen may have the highest status among the remaining Zhao family. But he is now the commander of the 6th Army of the Tang State, and is commanding the troops to fight fiercely with the Qin Army in Chu.

It is not accurate to say that it is a fierce battle. His troops are calmly compressing the Qin army's defense line, causing the Qin army to abandon a large number of field defenses.

 This famous general in the late Dahua period has now entered his own role. His headquarters was set up on a picturesque mountain peak, about 70 kilometers away from the front line.

The Qin Army has almost no attack means that can hit targets at this distance. Although the Qin State has purchased a large number of Scud missiles and has imitated them, the accuracy of these missiles is actually very poor.

 Accuracy comes second. The real reason why the Qin army was unable to attack the Tang army's target at this distance was actually intelligence.

The Qin Army's situational awareness of the battlefield is still at the stage of World War II, and their situational awareness of the entire battlefield is still at the stage of air force reconnaissance or manpower reconnaissance.

They do not have the satellite reconnaissance, electronic reconnaissance, pre-war coordinate mapping and positioning methods of the Tang Army, so they cannot launch attacks on targets hundreds of kilometers away.

 Such backward detection methods cannot support the use of weapons such as Scud missiles. This is also a problem that the Qin Army discovered after the war broke out, because before they could barely provide their missile forces with a certain degree of strike support through reconnaissance methods such as aircraft.

  Unfortunately, these supports are gone now. Qin's air force does not dare to take off for reconnaissance. They have all retreated, and most of them are living hundreds of kilometers away.

Zhao Chen woke up in the morning, brushed his teeth and washed his face. For him as a commander, today can be said to be an important day.

As the senior officer of the Tang Empire on the southern front, he had already opened the road to Nanshan Port from land.

A regiment of troops from the Tang State broke through the encirclement of the Qin Army yesterday and made contact with the defenders of Nanshan Port. After confirming the numbers, the two sides established a new line of defense along the road.

The Qin army had no intention of fighting at all. They abandoned the nearby defense line and directly withdrew the hundreds of thousands of troops besieging Nanshan Port.

"General! The commendation order for rescuing Nanshan Port has been issued. The General Staff Headquarters held a press conference to confirm that we have actually rescued Nanshan Port. I heard that your White Blade Medal is already on the way." Adjutant While Zhao Chen was wiping his face with a hot towel, he opened his mouth to report the good news.

 Zhao Chen handed the towel to the other party, and the other party helped him hang it up. Zhao Chen stretched out, smelled the faint smell of insect repellent in the room, and sighed: "This is the easiest battle I have ever fought... This award belongs to the 6th Army, and I personally Well deserved."

 This is what he said sincerely. In fact, what he, the commander of the 6th Army, has always done is to mark some areas on the map that he thinks need to be controlled, and the troops below will easily occupy these places.

 It is not an exaggeration at all: the Qin army does not seem to have such a strong will to resist, while the Tang army is like a hot knife cutting into butter, unstoppable and invincible.

In fact, this is indeed the case. On the one hand, the Qin army felt the news of the defeat in the north and did not dare to fight. On the other hand, they really had no way to resist the attack of the Tang army. With the support of technologies such as thermal imaging cameras, night fighting and small-scale penetration have become the strengths of the 6th Army. They were regarded as ghosts at night by Qin Jun, and gradually became Qin Jun's inner demons.

Since the fierce battle to this day, the Qin Army has consumed most of the flares. They would fire flares crazily at night, fearing that the dark soldiers of the Tang Army would suddenly appear in front of them.

The Tang Army not only crushed the Qin Army tactically, but also crushed the Qin Army in terms of combat effectiveness of small units. The commanders on both sides have completely different understanding of the battle situation, use of terrain, and proficiency in weapons and equipment.

Therefore, on a regular battlefield, the Qin Army can still use people to fill up the battlefield. However, in mountain warfare, the gap between the Qin Army and the Tang Army appears to be even larger and more difficult to bridge.

This is a change in thinking. No one as powerful as the US military can deal with the North Vietnamese guerrillas in the jungles of Vietnam, not to mention that the Qin army is not as powerful as the US military.

The Qin Army itself was unable to adapt to the Tang Army's infiltration with small groups of troops, not to mention that this was the terrifying ultimate form in which Tang Mo had strengthened several BUFFs.

Coupled with high-performance communications equipment, combined with the experience of the Volunteer Army to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the firepower of the unit has been strengthened, and it has almost overwhelming air support... This unit has the terrifying will and subjective initiative of Chinese soldiers, supplemented by the equipment of the Lighthouse State, Fire and air support.

 It can be said responsibly that in this era, the Tang Army's understanding of jungle warfare was ahead of the curve by an entire, or even several versions.

 Commanding such an army to fight, Zhao Chen did not have the pain and torture of commanding the Dahua army in the past. Everything was so relaxed and comfortable, as if we were having a picnic.

His headquarters can even take hot showers, and a big meal is served in the evening. Because the equipment is so advanced, he can even add ice cubes to the wine.

Yes, add ice cubes to your wine! The Tang army had refrigerators that could make ice cubes, and even senior officers had a supply of sweets such as ice cream. Commanders like Zhao Chen have a limited supply of alcoholic beverages every day. The reason for limiting the supply is just to worry about affecting the commander's judgment, not because the quantity is insufficient.

With such supply support, Zhao Chen even felt a little bitter: after fighting against such an enemy for several years, he now realized how overestimated his capabilities were.

 For someone like him who has seen both armies, the Tang army simply does not belong to this world. This army is so powerful that other armies cannot match it.

Zhao Chen didn’t know what the countries on the Eastern Continent were like, but he was certain that no one on the Western Continent could defeat such an army.

"You can't say that! Sir, your command ideas are very clear, allowing the troops to go smoothly and achieve brilliant results with a small cost of casualties, so this medal should belong to you." The adjutant is still very sure of his commander. .

At least in his opinion, Zhao Chen is a very qualified battlefield commander: his work and rest are very regular, his movements exude an aristocratic temperament, his command is very delicate, and almost everything is arranged in an orderly manner. He is very kind when he speaks, like an elder... This kind of style is indeed easy to be loved by his subordinates.
