I build a red alert base in the Golden Triangle

: Take the initiative!

“How many troops can we mobilize?” Wang Yao asked.

Chen Lin did some calculations and said: “Coming back to the commander, our army currently has 512 troops, and the barracks is producing at a production rate of 120 troops 24 hours a day.”

Initially, an infantry company and tank platoon of 120 people were rewarded. After solving the Menghai Town garrison and occupying Menghai Town, completing the task and rewarding an infantry battalion of 360 people. Now the troops in Wang Yao’s hands are It’s just these five hundred people.

“Soldiers are valuable and quick. It is best for us to take the initiative and capture Mengsa County before the enemy forces in Mengsa County receive news of the fall of Menghai Town.” Wang Yao’s finger crossed the map and pointed to the distance. Mengsa County, 60 kilometers away from Menghai Town.

Menghai Town and Mengsa County are 60 kilometers apart, but the middle is basically virgin jungle. There is only a winding trail running through it along a winding river. If it is a normal army march, it will take at least two or three days.

But for the Red Police infantry, this distance can be completed in one day.

“There is a road connection between Meng Sa County and Meng Dong County, and it is only about 40 kilometers away. If we attack Meng Sa County, the main force of the Southern Wa State Army stationed in Meng Dong County will support us within two days, and the vanguard troops will even attack on the first day. Just rush to the edge of the battlefield.” Chen Lin placed a soldier war game at the location of Mengdong County.

Then he said solemnly: “If we can deal with the enemy forces in Mengsa County within one day, we can definitely ambush the main force coming from Mengdong County on this stretch of road.”

Wang Yao looked at the road and found that it wound through the mountainous area, and many places were suitable for ambushes.

“The infantry can march to Mengsa County in a day, but I’m worried that if we attack the fortress, we will need grizzly tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and the small road from Menghai to Mengsa is difficult to use vehicles.” Wang Yao frowned.

The Southern Wa State Army has operated in Meng Sa and Meng Dong counties for decades, and there must be many defenses and even a civilian airport in Meng Sa district.

Wang Yao is not short of heavy weapons for attacking enemies. Once the tank factory is completed, it can produce artillery, tanks, and armored vehicles of various calibers. But the problem is how to transport these weapons for attacking enemies to Mengsa County in a short time.

“Commander, the multi-functional infantry fighting vehicle can try to take the trail. For heavy firepower, the Nightingale helicopter can be used to lift the M777 light howitzer.” Chen Lin suggested.

The basic multifunctional infantry fighting vehicle in the Red Alert system weighs only twelve tons and can carry nine fully armed infantrymen.

Of course, it can also be modified, such as replacing the machine gun with a tank turret to become an infantry support tank that can provide heavy fire support; it can also be equipped with additional anti-aircraft firepower to form an anti-aircraft vehicle.

The prototype of the Nightingale helicopter is the Eagle Country’s CH-47 “Chinook” heavy transport aircraft, which can carry thirty-three fully armed soldiers or six tons of supplies hung on the belly of the aircraft.

Six tons is not enough for tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, but it is enough for light artillery.

The M777 light howitzer has a caliber of 155 mm, a total weight of 3.4 tons, and an effective range of 24 kilometers. The maximum range can reach 40 kilometers using extended-range bombs. It can be used by C-17, C-5 fixed-wing aircraft or CH-53E, CH-47, etc. Helicopter transport.

“In this case, we have to properly deploy the structure of the army.” Wang Yao touched his chin.

The infantry battalions rewarded by the red alert system are all basic infantry battalions. In order to better fight in the jungle, Wang Yao felt that it was necessary to carry out lightweight reorganization.

After reorganization and editing, Wang Yao’s troops used companies and platoons as the main battle order.

Three soldiers form a combat team, and the three combat teams plus a fire support team form a twelve-man infantry squad, equipped with ten automatic rifles, one M249 light machine gun, one M24 sniper rifle, and one grenade launcher.

Three infantry squads plus one support squad form an infantry platoon. The support squad consists of two fire teams and a drone team. One of the teams is equipped with an M240 general-purpose machine gun, and the other is equipped with an 83mm rocket launcher, with a strength of 42 people.

An infantry company has three infantry platoons and a firepower platoon. The firepower platoon has an artillery squad equipped with three 60mm light mortars, a machine gun squad equipped with three 12.7mm Browning heavy machine guns, and a machine gun squad equipped with two 12.7mm Browning heavy machine guns. Anti-tank squad with Javelin anti-tank launcher and two 83mm rocket launchers.

After reorganization, an infantry company consisted of 160 people, and the troops in Wang Yao’s hands formed exactly three infantry companies.

Whether it is individual weapons and equipment, aerial reconnaissance or long-range firepower, they far exceed those of the United Wa State Army, not to mention that the fighting will of the Red Alert soldiers is comparable to the king of light infantry. !

Wang Yao gave an order, and the two infantry companies took the lead and headed for Mengsa County under the cover of night.

There is only one infantry company left, one platoon is left to guard the Red Alert Base, Menghai Town and the prisoner camp, and one platoon is escorting three newly produced multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles heading towards Mengsa County.

The last platoon is waiting for the Nightingale helicopters and M777 ultra-light artillery produced by the tank factory.

They will serve as the artillery guard force and together with the engineers and artillerymen produced in the subsequent barracks, they will rush to the front line in the Nightingale helicopter.

The three Grizzly tanks were not idle either. The tank platoon followed the rear of the marching team, driving hard on the muddy dirt road towards Mengsa County.

Even if you can’t catch up with tomorrow’s battle, you still have to fight to join the battlefield when the enemy forces in Mengdong County counterattack!

At that time, there will be a decisive battle to decide the ownership of Mengsa and Mengdong counties.
