At this moment, Hamid’s base deep in the mountains of Syria is a tense and busy place.
All the soldiers are using the fastest speed to welcome the coming war under the rising sun.
Hamid’s only helicopter gunships have all taken off and started to transfer some of the more important equipment and materials inside the base to the anti-slope pit halfway up the mountain.
Soldiers also began to enter the pit in an orderly manner under the command of officers at all levels, while those construction teams that were still working just now, as well as soldiers from the engineering battalion, also began to settle all the equipment as fast as they could.
At the same time, the scouts from the front line sent back the news that the other side was not moving very fast.
Although the armored vehicles were able to maneuver quickly, those several thousand soldiers, for the most part, had to rely on foot.
And the wagons were already loaded with a large number of supplies, and towed with the artillery behind, in this winding mountain road, the speed of movement was not much faster than running.
This made Hamid more relieved.
The other side came aggressively, but also quite slow.
It is also possible that in the eyes of the other side, they are already the meat of their mouth, so they are not at all anxious.
And the other side is not afraid of his escape, because their goal is to destroy his base, as far as possible to eliminate his troops, as for his own death, it does not matter.
For Hamid, the opposition forces, the base is their everything, there are bases they can have a life foundation, once they lose the protection of the base, they will be like a dog, can only be passively beaten.
And if the soldiers under Hamid, wiped out seventy to eighty percent, then Hamid will not have the possibility of turning over, then he can only hide, tired by running, simply no longer have the ability to launch any counterattack, or cause any threat.
So this crusading force is not in a hurry, they also know that Hamid has found himself, but they simply do not care.
But what they didn’t know was that Hamid now, was not the Hamid before.
He now has the strength to resist them!
The arrogance of the other side gave Hamid more than an hour of breathing time.
After more than an hour, everyone in this base, all withdrew into the backslope pit.
All the houses inside the base, became decorative, and all the valuable and useful things inside, were also taken away by all means.
Some of the large power generation equipment originally too late to dismantle, but also because of the time of more than an hour, in an orderly were emergency lifted using the helicopter and sent into the backslope pit.
There are a few engineering equipment really can not be put in, then directly were flown north from the base.
Hamid’s soldiers, at this moment, were in the backslope pit sitting in an orderly manner to check the guns and ammunition, ready to attack at any time to meet the battle.
When everything was ready, the front-line scouts sent back the latest information that the opponent’s army had stopped at a gentle area 20 kilometers away in a straight line.
At the same time, the opponent’s more than 30 tractor-trailer artillery pieces began to unfold in place.
Hamid knew very well that this should be the other side’s chosen artillery position, and after they unfolded the artillery and prepared for the attack, the first round of shelling would begin.
While the artillery was being deployed, the enemy left more than 2,000 soldiers to defend the artillery positions, and the remaining 5,000 infantry, immediately under the path of armored vehicles, continued to move towards Hamid’s base!
When Hamid heard this news, his heart gave a jolt and he thought to himself, “The infantry is really moving closer to me! They must be preparing to use artillery to shell me first.”
“And when the shelling is over, when this 5,000 infantry are at the gate, they should launch a charge! This should be the infantry artillery synergy tactic that brother Charlie said, good, see how I will beat your infantry back then!”
Then, he immediately ordered, “Pass the order to everyone to prepare for the artillery attack! Everyone must wear helmets, cover their ears, do not leave the pit, and also pass down the order, do not lean against the pit wall, it is best to lie on the ground.”
“If there is something softer cushioned, it would be better, this can effectively alleviate the vibration damage caused by the close-range shelling!”
Most of the time, the artillery is used to kill the human body, relying on the shrapnel when the blast occurs, or blast to open the rock or blast open all other hard objects.
However, the vibration wave generated by the explosion of artillery can also bring great damage to the human body, and if the distance is close enough, it is possible to shatter a person’s internal organs.
Hamid did not have any grand strategic thinking, but he was, after all, on the battlefield all the way to today, so there were many practical little experiences.
His orders were passed from layer to layer, and the soldiers in the various pits received his orders.
So many of them started to get something on the ground and find something soft to lay on it.
Many soldiers went to the entrance of the pit to get a lot of soft soil, and before the nervous Zynn could understand what they were doing, he heard the soldier who was watching him shout:
“What are you still standing there for? Hurry out to get some soil to spread under, or later in case the shells explode in front of you, will shock you into internal bleeding!”
When Zynn heard this, he asked in a panic: “Is there really going to be a war? Can you go talk to Commander Hamid and ask him to send a helicopter to send me away first, I’ve never fought in a war, it’s not much use staying here.”
The soldier said in a cold voice: “The helicopter has long gone, you can’t go anywhere now, if you don’t want to die, go get some dirt, if you want to try your luck, stay here and don’t do anything.”
Once he heard this, how dare he pretend again.
So while cursing Charlie with the most vicious language in his heart, he reluctantly followed the others and went outside the cave to prepare the dirt.
Zynn with an empty diesel engine lubricating oil bucket, painstakingly shoveled a bucket of soil, just lift up to go back, outside came the sound of sharp breaking air.
Before he could figure out what the sound was, deafening explosions rang out in quick succession!
The shelling, has begun!
In this instant, the whole mountain seemed to shake.
And the base outside the cave entrance, which was located in the valley, had instantly fallen into a sea of fire.
Zynn screamed loudly in fear, growing up, it was the first time he had zero contact with war.
He felt that his ears had been deafened in general, in addition to tinnitus, eardrums are also very painful, his body’s internal organs also seems to have just been pounded, how uncomfortable to have such an experience.
The soldier in charge of guarding him hastily dragged him into the pit, and immediately afterward, the second round of shells came whistling!
The target of this second round of shells was still the base in the valley, with deafening explosions one after another!
Zynn hurriedly covered his ears with both hands and crouched on the ground shivering.
Other soldiers, on the other hand, had long been prepared to defend themselves against the explosive shock.
Round after round of shells tilted down, causing no effect on them.
On the contrary, as the shelling continued for longer and longer, the soldiers’ psyche instead had a strong sense of security and superiority.
Because they witnessed with their own eyes the great effect that the counter-slope fortifications played in response to the shelling.
Hiding in such a strong fortification to meet the shelling was like hiding in an armored car and being shot by the primitive people with bows and arrows.
Instead of having any fear, the soldiers have now a psychological feeling of superiority towards the enemy that was almost mocking!
It can be said that the more shells the enemy fired, the higher the morale of Hamid’s men!
Hamid’s enemies, who knew that at this point his army, instead of being killed mostly by the shelling, was getting braver and braver at the sound of the shelling.
At this time, he, seeing that the shelling had little effect on the anti-slope fortifications, was also gaining confidence.
While listening to the rumbling of the artillery outside, he lamented in his heart, “If it weren’t for this anti-slope tactic taught to me by brother Charlie:
I’m afraid that the lives of my several thousand men would have all been accounted for during the first two rounds of artillery bombardment!”
The movie that Charlie told me to watch is indeed a textbook classic battle. The great volunteer army was able to achieve the final victory in this battle against the bombardment of millions of shells not only because they were brave and good at fighting.”
“It was more because of their superb strategic vision and advanced tactical disposition!”
“When I get through this battle, I’ll dig up all the mountains around here and build a super fortress that would be as solid as gold!”
At this time, the shelling of the government troops continued.
They carried tens of thousands of shells this time. With more than thirty guns, it was not a problem to fire hundreds of rounds.
Moreover, their infantry was still advancing, so during this time, the artillery shelling continued at intervals of one round every three minutes.
After twenty rounds of shelling, most of the bases in the valley had been razed to the ground. Only a few houses were left standing intact and alone.
Some soldiers, carefully came to the entrance of the pit to observe the damage of the base.
After discovering that the base had been razed to the ground, many of them had red eyes, clenched their fists, clenched their teeth, and their hearts were full of hatred.
Maybe to Zynn, that shabby little yard was a nightmare, a hell, but to these soldiers, those little yards, those houses, were their homes.
And now, their homes were blown away by the enemy!
Just as many soldiers were angrily trying to avenge the loss, a new round of shelling came!
This time, the shells did not fall into the almost flattened base again, but landed directly on the periphery of the mountain on the south side of the base, which is the positive slope of the mountain.
Because, in the conventional perception of the other side, they felt that most of Hamid’s soldiers, food and ammunition, and other supplies, must be placed inside the base, so the shelling in front for such a long time was to completely destroy their base as well as supplies and equipment.
And they also knew clearly that the main defense force of this man’s base must be concentrated on the positive slope of the mountain. Therefore, after they destroyed the base, they began to destroy the defensive positions.
They thought that as long as they used strong firepower to destroy all his defensive forces on the positive slope, the tanks and infantry would be able to drive straight in!
In this way, basically, the infantry would only need to come over and sweep the tail and the fight would be basically over.
However, what they did not know was that Hamid’s arms, and those other arms of the same type, had been extremely different.
Before knowing Charlie. Hamid’s base fortification, was to dig some foxholes on the positive slope of the mountain, and then use stones to build a firing stack, and then use hay on top to make a top for concealment.
This kind of fortification is very simple, if in high places to deal with the enemy infantry charge, to deal with infantry AK47 bullets without problems, and indeed has a very big advantage.
However, if the other side played fire suppression, the use of mortars or RPG, this foxhole is basically the same as the paper, is simply the best grave of soldiers.
Now the government troops are intensively bombing the positive slope, also in order to quickly dismantle Hamid’s defense force.
But. They never dreamed that he had just made a complete and utter transformation of the frontal fortifications.
Now the permanent fortifications, which were carved out of the rocky mountain body, and at the same time made multi-layer anchoring and reinforcement with reinforced concrete inside, the construction process was as strong as the tunnel.
With the power of their towed artillery fire, the possibility of blowing up such a fortification was almost nil.
Unless the use of high-end heavy drilling bombs. Only then would it be possible to blow up the fortifications.
But this kind of high precision weapons, only the UN’s P5 countries can master, Syria’s overall firepower level, at best, is the level of the 1960s and 1970s, it is impossible to get this kind of equipment for them.
Moreover, even if they had such equipment, they would not be able to cause direct damage to Hamid’s forces.
Because, right now, in his frontal fortifications, there was not a single soldier.
Hamid resolutely carried out Charlie’s instructions, since the other side was playing with infantry and artillery synergy.
When the artillery stopped and the infantry started to initiate the charge, then the troops will be mobilized to play defense.
And the soldiers at this moment when the enemy artillery shells hit dozens of rounds, Hamid’s side is not even a wounded.
While the opposing artillery was bombarded, the infantry advanced rapidly toward the base. After an hour or so, more than 5,000 troops were close at hand and stopped at the base of the hill, about two kilometers from the entrance to the base.
At this point, another round of bombardment began!
The entire positive slope of the mountain had been bombed to blackness. The small hill was soon full of devastation.
This was the last round of shelling before the infantry charge. Once the infantry started to initiate the charge, the shelling had to stop, otherwise, a large area of shelling could easily injure its own men.
However, the commander of the other side did not know what was going on inside the mountain.
Based on his past experience, he concluded that Hamid’s forces must have been severely reduced in strength by now, and that the defenses must have been mostly destroyed, so he immediately ordered the infantry to launch a charge under the cover of armored vehicles!
Hamid’s base was already easy to defend and difficult to attack, and once the north and south entrances were artificially cut off, there was no way for any personnel or vehicles to enter.
So the armored vehicles could not charge in directly, and the only thing they could do was to cover the infantry’s charge to the heights while providing close machine gun and artillery support.
Hamid watched the opposing armored vehicles roar closer and closer from within the permanent fortifications on the front.
Followed by thousands of bowed soldiers, the soldiers relied on the cover of the armored vehicles and advanced unharmed to the foot of the hill, followed by another round of artillery fire from the opposing artillery, which fired a new round of shelling on the front slope of the heights.
This round of shelling lasted a total of twenty minutes, and after twenty minutes, the shelling just stopped. Thousands of soldiers rushed out from behind the armored vehicles, shouting and rushing all the way to the heights.
In the eyes of the opposing commanders, as long as they took the frontal heights, they would have taken the entire Hamid’s base.
In traditional ground attack tactics, the significance of the high ground is very significant, as long as in a local war to take the high ground, it is the same as taking the initiative of the war in this area.
It is the same as the formation of a strong fire deterrent around, and the high ground itself is easy to defend difficult to attack, five hundred people stationed on the high ground, five thousand people may not be able to fight down the charge.
When defending, the side occupying the high ground is at great advantage, while the enemy attacking from the lower ground has difficulty.
When attacking, the side occupying the high ground launched a charge to break through, while the enemy defending from the lower ground was almost defenseless, even retreating is very difficult because the whole back would be exposed to the other side.
So the opposing commander felt that no matter how many troops Hamid is left with now, if he took the high ground and then launched a charge from it to the inner base, he could settle the battle once and for all in a short time!
As thousands of soldiers swarmed up, Hamid’s soldiers immediately began to enter the permanent fortifications on the front slope from the reverse slope pit.
After the thousands of opposing soldiers had also fully entered the firing range of Hamid’s permanent fortifications, he suddenly ordered by radio, “Fire!”
Originally, the attacking soldiers found no resistance to their charge and thought that the enemy had already been crippled by the rounds of artillery bombardment and could not possibly launch effective resistance.
Therefore, they all relaxed their vigilance, thinking that they would rush up with a single blow, and then finish Hamid’s nest with a single charge.
But who would have thought that just when they thought they would win this battle, a large number of machine gun tongues suddenly erupted from the rocky crevices of the high ground!
The ubiquitous sound of gunfire quickly covered the entire hill, and the soldiers in the front fell down like rows and rows of wheat.
The soldiers in the back were all blinded!
They hastily raised their guns and tried to return fire, but where could they see half of the enemy’s shadow!
The only thing they could see was the tongues of fire coming out of the rocks, and every time they saw the fire coming out, a group of people would be hit and fall to the ground.
In less than a minute, the attacking side lost at least five or six hundred soldiers.
Some soldiers subconsciously returned fire in the direction of the fire tongues, but their weapons had no real effect on Hamid’s permanent fortifications.
At this point, the frontline commander shouted for the soldiers to find cover as soon as possible.
But the most damaging thing was that Hamid had long ago had all the places where they could hide on the sloping hillside treated, and the former potholes were filled in, and the former boulders were blasted directly into pieces.
In short, these thousands of people are now on the slope of the hill, simply can not find any shelter to avoid bullets!
And Hamid’s troops were still inside the permanent fortifications, firing back frantically!
His troops were heavily armed with Russian-made weapons, and each permanent fortification was equipped with multiple 7.62mm caliber, air-cooled Russian PK general-purpose machine guns, and a handful of 12.7mm anti-aircraft heavy machine guns.
The former has a fast rate of fire, wide fire coverage, and is very lethal to ordinary soldiers after multiple angles and multiple machine guns form a crossfire network.
The latter is slow, but the power is huge, basically, is a death giver, more vicious, when there are many people, this thing’s penetration ability is far beyond the ordinary machine gun, a shot over, can penetrate the body of several soldiers.
These two weapons together, in this kind of highland battle, the combo is invincible, plus the enemy simply have no place to hide, so is completely there to be beaten.
The enemy had to charge and had made the mistake of being light on their feet, not carrying heavy equipment at all, so the firepower alone was a world away from the other side.
And the greater disparity is that the attacking army is simply unharmed, completely using their bodies against the bullets.
Unlike Hamid’s soldiers, they were hiding in permanent fortifications built of rock and concrete, reinforced with steel plates on the front and covered with a layer of soil on the outside, so the bullets hit them like mosquitoes bite elephants, with no lethality at all.
Their front commander, seeing more and more soldiers fall around him, realized that the other side had prepared for the attack, so it was impossible to attack so strongly, so he immediately shouted:
“Retreat! Retreat to the back of the armored vehicles!”
So, the remaining 3,000 to 4,000 soldiers began to flee frantically.
With this retreat, the soldiers who were at the front exposed their backs to the range of Hamid’s soldiers, so they lost several hundred more men in the retreat.
All soldiers retreated to the back of the armored vehicles, and the front-line commanders immediately began to count their numbers.
Soon, the attrition was reported from each company. 5,000 men launched a charge, and 1,300 died in one shot.
Among them, there were more than 500 mercenaries from the Cataclysmic Front.
This time, Cataclysmic Front sent ten thousand mercenaries to Syria.
In principle, these people have to obey the command of the Syrian government forces and cooperate with them in the extermination of anti-government forces.
The Syrian government army split these 10,000 mercenaries, and the 10,000 men were divided into four equal parts to play with the four divisions of the government army, and multi-faceted.
And this time, the army that came to crush Hamid included 2,500 mercenaries of the Cataclysmic Front.
Originally, the officers of the group, like the commanders of the government army, were somewhat gullible.
They felt that they had already seen the level of the Syrian anti-government forces and that it would be a breeze to eliminate them.
So they didn’t make enough preparations at all. They only thought that after helping the government to solve the big problem, they would immediately establish their own mercenary base in Syria to further strengthen their influence in the Middle East.
But to their surprise, this time they suffered an unprecedented blow because of their rashness.
More than five hundred fresh lives were thrown directly on the slope of Hamid’s base.
The commander of this Cataclysmic Front mercenary unit was a yellow man who was about thirty years old.
His name was Robin, a five-star war general of the Front, and considered one of the core backbone.
In the Front, in addition to the overall Chief and four War generals, there were nearly a hundred of junior Generals below.
And their ability, resume, and battle achievements determine their star rating.
The star level of war generals ranges from one star to five stars. Five-star generals, naturally, are the highest among them, and there are only twenty to thirty such men in total who can get this level.
Including the Chief and the four War Generals, Robin’s ranking in the Cataclysmic Front is at least in the top forty.
This time, he followed Walter, the first battle General of the Front, to conquer Syria.
But he never thought that so many people would die just after the battle started today!
After he saw his team suffered heavy losses, he immediately approached the top commander of his government forces and angrily rebuke:
“Your pre-war intelligence work is a puddle of sh!t! Hamid built so many hidden permanent fortifications, why did you never tell us this information?”
The supreme commander who was questioned was also annoyed and responded, “What you are asking is all fcuking nonsense, if I knew that he had built permanent fortifications, then I would definitely tell you this information, but the problem is that I didn’t know either!”
The commander of the Cataclysmic Front was furious at the other side’s righteousness and said angrily,
“Intelligence gathering before the war is a top priority for any army, why didn’t you do it? That’s not too unprofessional!”
The commander of the government army asked him rhetorically, “We are unprofessional, but if you are so professional, why didn’t you do the pre-war intelligence collection as well?”
“After coming to Syria, have the generals of the Cataclysmic Front reduced their combat level to the same level as us?”
“Fcuk!” Robin cursed angrily and said through clenched teeth, “You think fighting a war is a shr3w’s scolding? I don’t have time to bullsh!t here, you have to give me an explanation for these 500 or so men I lost!”
The government commander said in a cold voice: “Don’t give me that sh!t! It’s normal to lose men in war, you want me to give you an explanation, I lost nearly a thousand men, who will give me an explanation?”
“The most important thing now is to take out Hamid’s base! Capture him and beh3ad him! This is the only way to console the dead soldiers!”
Saying that, the other party stared coldly at Robin and reminded, “More importantly, it is also the only way to save each of us from the chastisement of our superiors!”
“If we lose so many people and still haven’t brought down Hamid, my superiors won’t spare me, but I believe your superiors won’t spare you either!”
Robin was speechless for a moment.
What the other side said was true.
What was most feared was that after suffering losses, they were still unable to win.
If he could not defeat Hamid, he would become a laughing stock in the Group! Even his future would be ruined!
So, he looked at the government army commander and said in a cold voice: “Your artillery just blew up so many rounds, and the other side still has such strong firepower, which proves that their permanent fortifications are quite sturdy.”
“If this battle turns into an assault battle, and it’s still from the bottom to the top, I’m afraid it won’t be so good!”
The government commander gritted his teeth and said, “Then I’ll have the artillery bomb a few more rounds!”
“It’s useless!” Robin said, “Just now so many rounds have no effect, it’s useless to bomb again!”
He gave a slight pause, thought for a moment, and spoke, “How about this, you send your soldiers with heavy weapons to continue the feint attack on his front.”
“I will lead our brothers from the Cataclysmic Front to detour from the side peaks, quietly touch the high ground, and then directly go around to their flank to encircle them!”
As soon as the government commander heard these words from Robin, his eyes lit up.
“Frontal feint, flanking detour!”
“This is definitely a very feasible battle plan, this General, he really does have some skills!”
How did Robin know that his own set of attack tactics, which were too ordinary and common, had become a genius decision in the eyes of the opposing commander?
This is mainly because the other side’s military literacy is really too low, so low that it is ridiculously below the standards.
Although the Middle East is constantly at war, it has to be admitted that the entire modern Middle East is not good at fighting wars.
Since the Second World War, war has become more and more demanding in terms of tactics and strategies as well as patterns.
The world has learned a lot of war experience from that war, even those originally weak Southeast Asian countries, one by one, have become brave and good at fighting.
Only the Middle East, in terms of war talent and tactics, has not been enhanced, on the contrary, it is still far behind other regions.
Syria, Afghanistan, and even Iraq for so many years, the local armed no matter how large, to fight, basically are wild guerrilla mode.
Low military literacy is the biggest problem of the military in the Middle East, except for Israel.
The soldier’s training level is not enough, officers’ command level is not enough, the various departments of the army, the ability to work together between the various services is very poor.
At the same time, the troops also generally lack a strong will to fight, many times seemingly huge army, in fact, a stab will break the flanks.
Not to mention Syria, a country that is at war all day long, even the few super-rich countries that started with oil, their armies are a mess in all aspects except when they spend money to buy equipment than anyone else.
For example, in almost all of the advanced American equipment of Saudi Arabia, in the fight with the Houthis, even the United States sold them the M1A2 main battle tank which got captured by the other side, and therefore honored the reputation of “transport captain”.
The military level of the country is so worrying, let alone Syria.
The government commander, who is partnered with Robin’s war army, has not received any professional military education at all, and when he came out as leader of the team of several thousand people, how to arrange the troops, how to develop tactical strategies, he is basically confused.
Even the most simple infantry and artillery synergy, are managed by Robin.
The reason why the government commanders did not think of using infantry and artillery synergy was mainly because their artillery training level was extremely low, and they were barely able to get by on the usual training ground by hitting targets at close range.
But when they were really pulled out in the hills and let them bomb Hamid’s base, they could not even calculate the coordinates.
If it weren’t for the fact that Robin’s army had experts who were proficient in calculations, they wouldn’t even be prepared to bring tractor artillery with them on this battle against Hamid.
Because their soldiers were only good at operating just one kind of heavy firepower weapon besides using guns, and that was RPG rockets.
That is too simple for them, no need to survey, no need to calculate, no need not to cooperate with the departments, want to bomb something, just put that thing on the shoulder visually aim, and then fired out and it’s done.
Even illiterate people can easily operate it.
But the artillery has more, behind a set of tedious tactical systems it is detection, calculation, site selection, cooperation, attack, and defense, these elements are indispensable.
For a range of 20 to 30 kilometers of artillery, if the coordinates are not calculated, bombing a day may not be able to wound the enemy.
So, he who doesn’t know anything about tactics, after hearing this set of techniques and tactics of Robin, he immediately took it as a guideline.
However, the question did come up.
Why do you want your army to feint?
Even if it is a feint, you have to make a show with the other side in the frontal battlefield, right?
Moreover, you can’t feint outside the enemy’s fire range, right? That way, even a fool can see that it is an act.
But on the frontal battlefield, your side has no advantage, even if you feint, you will lose a lot of soldiers.
Moreover, the feinting side will not only have losses, but the key is to wait for the people of the Cataclysmic Front to detour from the flank and steal the opponent’s permanent fortifications, the credit for the capture of the enemy camp is still fcuk!ng theirs.
The more you think about this deal, the more uneconomical it is.
So, he said, “Your method is fine, but I don’t think my team should be allowed to feint, why don’t we switch, you let your team feint, I’ll let my soldiers go to the flank to detour!”
Robin said angrily, “Don’t you fcuk!ng dream! Letting my soldiers feint? Can your seriously untrained soldiers take on such a daunting assault?”
“What’s the use of just being able to feel through and not be able to fight?”
When the commander heard this, he could not help but think: “It seems to be true that …… my overall strength of soldiers is much worse, if they really go to fight the attack, I am afraid that they will not be able to do the other side ……”
“Not to mention that the other side has the protection of permanent fortifications, when the time comes, in case of failure to fight, I do not know how many people will die ……”.
Thinking about this layer, he immediately said, “Good! In that case, you go to the circuitous penetration, I will front feint!”
Robin gave him a disdainful glance, then he snorted coldly and said, “Now the team has withdrawn, but don’t let the other side breathe, let your artillery in the rear continue to bombard.”
“I’ll go and work out a battle plan with my team and start to meander to the flank in 10 minutes, then you will launch a feint attack!”
The opposing commander also felt that Robin did seem to know more about war than he did, so he immediately agreed and said with a smile, “Good point, good point, I’ll call and have the artillery bomb five more rounds immediately!”
……
At this time, Hamid, seeing the other side dropped more than 1,000 bodies in retreat, the inner sense of accomplishment is simply bursting in him.
Immediately afterward, the adjutant came forward to report and said joyfully, “Commander, the squads just did a count, and we didn’t lose a single person killed or injured in the battle just now!”
“Great!” Hamid slapped his thighs and said excitedly, “The techniques and tactics shared by Charlie are fcuk!ng amazing! I have to call him and report back!”
Immediately after that, Hamid took out his satellite phone and called Charlie.
Charlie had already rushed back to his home in Tomson, locked himself in his room, and waited for Hamid’s follow-up feedback.
He knew very well in his heart that he was thousands of kilometers away, and there was really nothing he could do about Hamid’s side of the situation.
And this is not something as simple as going to rescue someone, but a war that involves tens of thousands of people on both sides combined.
In this kind of war, it is never a certain strong person who can decide the direction of the war, so even if he goes there now, he may not be able to help him much.
Not to mention the distance, plus the turnaround to Lebanon, even if he let the Concorde come over now, he will arrive in Syria a few hours later, by then it is likely that the big picture has been decided.
So now what he can do is to guard this side of the phone, waiting for Hamid’s feedback, if he encounters problems, he has to provide him with timely help.
At this time, when he received Hamid’s call, he almost immediately picked up and asked, “Brother, how is the situation over there?”
Hamid said cheerfully, “Brother, you’re really divine, every step of the other side’s action is within your prediction!”
Said Hamid, catching his breath, continued, “They really used the kind of infantry and artillery coordinated combat method you mentioned.”
“First they conducted a massive and intensive artillery attack on my base and positions, and then they started to let several thousand infantry charge hard upwards, but they were too gullible, my troops suddenly opened fire to counterattack and caught them off guard.”
“They have now been beaten back, the number of dead and wounded is estimated to be at least a thousand people!”
Charlie asked, “So what is their state now? Start preparing for another artillery attack?”
“Not quite clear ……” Hamid said: “They just retreated, there is no movement for now.”
Charlie thought about it and said, “Then I guess they will continue to launch artillery attacks again very soon, but you must be careful, the other side is likely to take the way of circuitous penetration from the side and directly sneak attack your fortifications.”
“Detour through?”
Hamid at least studied in China, although the study is not military command, but at least it is also considered to have opened his eyes, so he immediately said:
“Then I will let people release the drones, closely observe the surrounding situation, if they really send troops to quietly infiltrate, the drones will definitely be able to detect.”
Charlie then said, “Good, release the drones, remember not to let the other side find out, in this way can also lure the enemy deep, then directly hit them by surprise.”
“Okay!” Hamid said, “From now on, I will definitely play 120 points, absolutely do not let them have any chance to sneak attack!”
Charlie looked at the time and spoke, “It should be morning on your side now, right? Daytime is a bit better, but you must pay attention to the defense at night, if the other side fails to penetrate now, then they will definitely make a comeback at night.”
Hamid smiled and said, “Brother, you told me to strengthen the defense and hoard supplies, I not only hoarded a lot of supplies, but also bought some relatively high-end equipment, including a few thermal imagers, if they dare to sneak attack me at night, in front of the thermal imager they have nowhere to hide!”
Charlie could not help but praise: “Even you are equipped with a thermal imager, good good! How is your ammunition reserve?”
Hamid laughed: “Don’t worry, with the money you gave me last time, I bought a lot of ammunition, tens of millions of rounds of ammunition alone, even if I can’t get any supplies in, I can still hold here until next year!”
“That’s good!” Charlie said: “I guess they do not carry enough supplies to fight a protracted war with you, after three or four days they can not attack you, I believe they will first withdraw back to rest, otherwise, their supplies are not enough to support them to stay there.
“So you must be in the spirit of these days, do not let down your guard. “
“Okay!”
Charlie also instructed: “There is another very important thing, after these few days, you must take the time to confirm the current situation of other armed forces, you can resist the siege of 8,000 people for a few days, will certainly be in the opposition armed fame.”
“Those other armed people who were dispersed have nowhere to go, you can ask them to come to you, and those who are in a precarious situation, you can also take the opportunity to annex them in.”
“Enhance your overall strength, after all, you have enough supplies, have a strong defense capability, this group of people are certainly willing to submit.”
“Right!” Hamid said excitedly, “I’ll take this opportunity to make the team bigger!”
“Hmm.” Charlie instructed, “Must remember, when absorbing this group of people must do a good background check, do not let spies mixed in, the other is that after the establishment comes in, must break them all up among your officers to manage, so that they do not have the idea of rebellion!”
Hearing Charlie’s advice, Hamid was greatly cheered up, and he was about to express his ambition to Charlie, when the sound of violent explosions rang out again outside.
He knew that the enemy had withdrawn the infantry and a new round of shelling was about to begin!
So he said loudly, “Brother Wade! The enemy is firing again! I’ll hang up the phone and make arrangements, I’ll communicate with you if there’s any situation!”
“Okay!” Charlie also spoke, “Remember, a thousand-mile dam collapses in an anthill, you must be cautious and careful again, you must not take the enemy lightly!”
“I remember!” Hamid exclaimed, “Brother, wait for my good news!”
After Hamid ended the call, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart that he could always get a lot of different inspirations from Charlie.
This made him realize that the government army’s big fanfare to attack him this time was likely to gift him an opportunity to develop and grow.
If Hamid could win in this kind of battle where he fought with less, then his fame among the whole opposition forces would definitely rise!
This further makes him understand that whether he can be blessed by the disaster depends on whether he can carry the attack of these 8,000 people.
Just when he thought of this, he said in his heart: “No! Now they only have six or seven thousand people left at most!”
In order to hold the attack, he immediately summoned his adjutant and asked, “How many drones are left in our base?”
The adjutant said, “There are still more than 20 aerial drones, and we bought more at the time because they were cheap.”
Hamid asked, “What is the approximate endurance?”
The adjutant thought about it and replied, “It should be around 25 minutes, no more than half an hour at most.”
Hamid nodded and said, “The time is a bit short, but it’s enough, you immediately order down, all the drones into a state of readiness.”
“I asked to ensure that there are at least five drones around our base at all times, must be alert to the enemy’s small groups of troops circuitous penetration, found such signs, must be reported to me the first time!”
“Yes, Commander!”
Hamid added: “By the way, instruct the drone flyers to make sure to pull up the altitude of their planes and try not to get detected by the enemy!”
The adjutant immediately took the order and turned to go down to arrange the execution.
Soon, five folding drones flew out from the hole of the anti-slope trench.
These drones are very small, the fuselage is only the size of a palm, they just flew out of the hole, they immediately climbed upwards, after the drones fly to a couple of hundred meters, the naked eye simply can not observe.
And once the drone’s rotor noise to two or three hundred meters in height, it is also basically difficult to hear, not to mention the battlefield is dominated by the sound of explosions.
The enemy does not have professional radar equipment, simply can not find these small aerial equipment.
After the drones fly up, although the ground targets are becoming very small, but the other side have many people, so it is still easy to identify them in the picture transmission signal.
At this resolution, unless the opponent breaks up all the soldiers into individual actions one by one, otherwise, as long as there are more than ten people maneuvering together, the drone can capture it very easily.
And at this moment, Robin, who was conducting pre-battle mobilization for his soldiers, did not know that all their movements were under Hamid’s close monitoring.
He couldn’t imagine that Hamid’s all-around air surveillance was achieved by a group of civilian aerial drones with a single value of no more than 10,000 yuan.
This time, the Cataclysmic Front lost several hundred people when they came up.
Such a tragic failure had never happened since the establishment of the Front.
He did not dare to report to commander Walter immediately but only thought of hurrying up to take down Hamid and wipe out the shame of the past.
After all, the level of weapons and equipment, as well as the overall level of training of anman like Hamid, could not even compare to the ordinary militia.
He brought so many elites with him, but was repelled away by the other side in a wave of several hundred people, which is simply an unacceptable humiliation.
Therefore, he now only thought of hurrying up to end Hamid’s nest, and then bring the battle merit to report the casualties to Walter, and also can slightly save some face.
Therefore, at this time, he attached great importance to the next upcoming flanking detour tactics, and decided to personally lead the attack, to make sure to hit Hamid with a surprise!
