District 9

Yan Hu never expected that not only did his first attack have no effect, but that he would also fight evenly with He Dachuan.

During the daytime battle, both sides lost four to five thousand men each, but Yan Hu, with the desperate support of the air force and several regiments of armored troops, still failed to attack in depth. To put it bluntly, the battle was very lively, but no progress was made.

In particular, the 33rd Brigade of the Marine Corps in the European Area 1 suffered the most serious damage. He Dachuan just pinched them and beat them like crazy. As a result, the two commanders of the 33rd Brigade were killed and the infantry was reduced by more than 1,200 people. They didn't have time to remove the corpses from the battlefield. All of them were cremated by He Dachuan's soldiers with flamethrowers in public and dumped in a wavy pit in front of the mountains.

This result made the 33rd Brigade very angry. When the brigade commander communicated with Yan Hu, his words were not so respectful.

If the battle had not been fought during the day, Yan Hu would definitely not dare to attack at night, because the battlefield visibility was not good, and He Dachuan had obviously built a large-scale bunker in the mountain. Once the troops formed a formation and charged into the mountain, they would have to Faced with countless soldiers who rushed out of the bunker and shot coldly, the losses would only be more serious than they are now.

Based on the above reasons, Yan Hu began to order the troops to retreat before nightfall and entered the attack preparation area to rest.

But it was said to be a rest, but did Yan Hu's First Army really dare to sleep?

In the headquarters, Yan Hu looked solemn, frowned and said to his generals: "We can't fight tonight, but we must prevent He Dachuan from counterattacking. The people from Sichuan are good at surprise attacks, so we have to be prepared."

"yes!"

"...I have ordered the troops below to increase surveillance of the surrounding areas at night."

"...!"

Everyone responded one after another.

Yan Hu put his hands on the combat table and continued in a rich voice: "I read the weather forecast. The temperature is very low tonight. The mud pits dug by the enemy on the offensive line and the wave-shaped armored positions will probably be frozen. Solid. Tomorrow when we attack again, the engineering team will prepare iron plates. Even if they are laid manually, they will be laid into the mountains for me! To fight such a difficult battle, we still need to rely on armor. As long as they rush through the mountains, what's the point? Even if Dachuan can hold on, they will have to be forced back to defend. Otherwise, if the armor passes and goes straight to Hongdan Airport, they will be finished."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The temporary combat meeting ended quickly, and the generals returned to their respective camps.

That night.

The forward corps of Yan Hu's First Army all imitated the combat strategy used by the American troops when they attacked Iwo Jima. They fired several flares into the sky every five minutes, all in the direction of the mountain side, in order to prevent He Dachuan from sending troops to rob the island at night. camp.

Inside the mountain.

He Dachuan was wearing a red sweater, snoring, and slept soundly than anyone else.

The commander's mentality was so relaxed, and the atmosphere in the headquarters was not depressing. Including the soldiers of the 122nd Army, they are also very caring. They should be on duty and take a rest, because what awaits them tomorrow will be to stick to their positions and risk their lives.

In fact, for Yan Hu, their offensive background was not easy. They rushed to the battlefield almost as soon as they got off the ship, barely resting in the middle, and they were all marching in a hurry.

But for He Dachuan's 122nd Army, it was even more difficult for them. After receiving Gu Yan's order, large troops immediately entered the surrounding area of ​​Hongdan Airport. They had to dig mountains to link up, and set up anti-armor positions on a small part of the offensive line... The soldiers' physical strength was already exhausted. Damn it. It’s just persistence.

Therefore, rest is important.

…

On the frontal battlefield, relying on the favorable terrain of the mountains, Gu Yan's regiment also had its first collision with the enemy within ten hours of daylight.

Huo Zhenghua's army suffered the most serious losses. It scrapped nearly one of its main divisions in one day and directly reduced nearly 8,000 troops. It has now withdrawn to the rear for rest. The enemy's Zhou regiment, the Xia Daoou First District Corps, was also seriously damaged.

The dominant Army 125th Division, known as the Xia Dao Marine Corps, was blocked by Huo Zhenghua from the front when attacking the center line, and was attacked by Fatty Teng on the side. It also lost nearly 4,000 men in the battle.

This number is a battle damage figure that has never been recorded in Europe 1 since the Era. They are used to showing off their power in the world's military regime. No one in the previous nine regions dared to compete with them head-on. Therefore, the unified three regions are the first military force in the history of the new era to fight against them head-on, and there is no At an absolute disadvantage. Even if Gu Yan were not on the defensive side, the opponent might have suffered greater losses.

Years ago, there was a five-star general in my brother's country. In 1962, when the southern part of our nation was suffering from military harassment, he said this to the superiors: "Whoever wants to go to war with the Chinese Army must have a brain." sick."

Later, this sentence also appeared in his autobiography. He was the supreme commander who commanded the Korean battlefield, MacArthur.

From the perspective of the national people, his words may not be a compliment in a pure sense, but a fear and recognition of the Chinese nation's war resilience, national resilience and cohesion.

History always repeats itself, and at this moment, there is still a group of people on the Yemen battlefield, confirming MacArthur’s words with their blood and lives.

…

Inside the Gu Yan Corps headquarters.

Huo Zhenghua frowned and said in a low voice: "... We just don't have enough capital. To be honest, if we fight for two more days, their artillery fire will level the low mountain we are holding on to... Our numbers are too small. , with such consumption, I won’t be able to hold on for long.”

"I agree with Lao Huo's point of view." Fatty Teng also frowned and said: "The Zhou Corps has also been hit hard, and the offensive intensity is getting stronger every time. If we continue to be consumed, if any one point collapses, the whole thing will collapse."

After Gu Yan thought about it for a long time, he looked up at them and said, "I understand what you mean. You each stay at your position. I will take care of the rest."

Everyone nodded.

About an hour later, Gu Yan dialed Qin Yu's number directly and said bluntly: "There are not enough people, so we have to add more people."

Qin Yu thought about it for a long time: "This situation is similar to what Meng Xi predicted in his previous plan. If we increase the amount, they will increase too."

"Yes." Gu Yan nodded.

"You ask the troops to clear Yemen Airport and wait for support."

"clear!"

"...!" Qin Yu suddenly felt guilty when he heard Gu Yan's affirmative answer: "Brother, thank you for your hard work!"

In the battle for unification, the Gu Clan marched forward indomitably; in the battle to resist the enemy, the Gu Clan brought out all their elites. They did too much for the three regions.

Gu Yan paused for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "My father's wisdom... is indeed beyond my comparison. Now I understand, he is right, unification is to declare sovereignty, to do those once awesome military regimes, and You still have to fucking win!”

"Let's do it together!" Qin Yu replied.

Half an hour later, the Qi Lin Department, a direct line of the Sichuan government, received the combat order and began to assemble in the ninth district.

…

at the same time.

Coco has already called people she trusts and is preparing to return to CSS Island.
