Doomsday rat

Chapter 873 Strange Tactics
So Zhang Ke designed a chicken rib?Certainly not, if it was too tasteless, the alliance military would not have trained for half a year and finally went to the battlefield.The main purpose of establishing the special operations regiment was not to save people, but to prepare for going south.

After all, there is a buffer zone of nearly 200 kilometers between the East Asian Alliance and the Southeast Alliance. If you want to pass through this area, you will have to face a large number of zombie cleanups.Although in the plan of the staff department, the main means of attack are the air force and paratroopers, but Pan Wenxiang is not stupid, it is impossible that he has no backup.

Once the paratrooper airdrop raid fails, or the opponent's command system is not completely destroyed, the army and navy can only be sent to attack.But letting the main attacking troops clean up the cities and villages full of zombies for several days is a bit overkill. It would be much more comfortable and efficient if there is a troop that is good at fighting zombies to clear the way ahead.

In addition, this army is not only able to fight zombies, as long as the extra equipment is removed and standard weapons are used, it can also fight humans.Even if they are not very elite, it is enough to play a flank and contain them.

So now the problem is coming. Although the special operations group is progressing smoothly and has advanced to about 2 kilometers from the northern end of the reservoir dam, the intensity of the next battle will be more than doubled.

With at most one or two more rounds of artillery cover, the heavy artillery in the rear had to cease firing temporarily.The target is too close to the dam, and long-range strikes cannot be 100% accurate, and it is easy to accidentally injure the soldiers of the 8th Regiment on the dam.

But can the dozens of mortars and armored firepower of the regiment kill a large number of zombies in large numbers, cover the infantry close to the dam to break through the blockade, and rescue the 8th regiment?

If it cannot be done before dark, the special operations group must retreat at least 5 kilometers and station in an open area north of the railway line.The gap that was just opened will be filled by zombies again, and the ammunition consumption of the whole day will be in vain.

"Damn it, one general is incompetent and exhausts the entire army to death!" Niu Dafu had no answer in his mind. The order he received was not to open a gap to meet the 8th Regiment's escape from the encirclement, but a vague sentence: on the premise of ensuring safety Down, as close to the north end of the dam as possible!
Seeing that the experience of the Gugang Reservoir Dam was vivid in his memory, Niu Dafu patted his chariot down vigorously.In his opinion, this is random life. If he is willing to invest one or two more heavy artillery battalions, increase the air force's strike force, and fight hard, it is entirely possible to break through the zombie group near the dam in one go, and kill most of the officers and soldiers of the 8th regiment. Pick it up.

That's right, the consumption of materials in this way will increase exponentially, and there will inevitably be a lot of casualties.But fighting is fighting, no matter you are fighting with people or zombies, there is no one who will not die in a fight, as long as the goal is achieved, it is victory!

But the military order is like a mountain. Seeing that the reservoir dam is vivid, and the trapped soldiers can be seen cheering in the binoculars, they can't rush over in one go, and have to stop and wait for the secret weapon.

"Brigadier, they are coming!"

"Just one car?" Niu Dafu put down the binoculars and looked back, not only did not relax his sad face, but became even more annoyed.A light infantry combat vehicle belonging to the air force came along the road. It was not fast, and it was lonely, not like reinforcements, but like a tourist.

"It should be..." Niu Dafu was urgently appointed as the commander of the first reserve brigade this time, and he did not bring other old subordinates except the guard platoon.It's not that I don't want to bring it, it's that I really have no idle time.The First Brigade stationed in Xuchang has also received an assembly order and is gathering troops to allocate supplies. Officers at all levels cannot do without anyone.

Now the chief of staff of the brigade is from the first reserve brigade. He has heard about the new brigade commander but has never met him, let alone his personality, so he has questions along the way.

"What should it be? Is it right? Look at what I'm doing, hurry up and ask!" Niu Dafu was very brave in battle. If it wasn't for the Ministry of Armed Forces' repeated orders not to allow senior officers to lead the charge on the front line, he would not be bothered. Going for a ride behind.

It is enough to leave it to the deputy brigade commander and regimental commander to command the overall situation. It is much easier to lead a battalion to fight directly on the front line than to hold a telescope and sit in an armored vehicle to coordinate the overall situation.

"Report to the brigade commander, the secret squad is here! The headquarters has confirmed that there are 6 people in a car, and we must cooperate!" The chief of staff of the brigade headquarters learned his lesson this time, and asked not only one but also two.

"...Cooperate with his motherfuckers! 6 people, let us two groups cooperate, tell me how to cooperate, coax them to hide and seek or play eagle to catch chickens?"

Niu Dafu's nose was almost crooked, if Jiao Qiao could be in front of him, he must go up and ask him.It's a pity that there is no place to ask someone to ask now, so I can only vent my anger on the brigade chief of staff first.

"Uh... it was ordered by Minister Jiao himself... During the meeting last night, Minister Jiao repeatedly explained that the secret squad is under the command of Secretary He alone, and no department or person is allowed to interfere and obstruct, and must actively cooperate according to the predetermined plan. "

The brigade chief of staff is not a recruit, and many of the officers in the [-]st Reserve Brigade come from the standing units.Facing Niu Dafu's standard executive style, he was not surprised, and directly moved Jiao Qiao and the meeting decision.

"Come on, you have a good memory, then cooperate according to the predetermined plan, don't call me if you have nothing to do!" Niu Dafu was even more bachelor, put the binoculars into the arms of the brigade staff officer, dropped a sentence, and got into the chariot to rest up.

Use the superior to suppress me, right? Cheng, boy, I don't care, the command is temporarily handed over to you.Dare to say nothing! Listen!Disobedience on the battlefield, if there are witnesses, you can disarm and arrest on the spot!
The chief of staff of the brigade did not catch him blind, and ran back to his infantry vehicle with the binoculars in his arms, and immediately issued an order to the combat troops of the first reserve brigade through the walkie-talkie.There is only one content, you can only watch but not move, no matter what happens, you can't move your position at will!
As a result, the Special Operations Regiment stopped their advance and looked for bunkers in place to enter a defensive state.The heavy artillery group at the rear also stopped roaring, and the battlefield became quiet except for sporadic gunshots.

All the frontline officers and soldiers focused their attention on this small infantry combat vehicle painted in blue and white, and those who were located too far away simply received the live broadcast of the neighboring company from the walkie-talkie.Like Niu Dafu, they don't understand what the alliance's top management is trying to do.

Although the light infantry chariot was not moving fast, it was very dexterous. It avoided a few bomb craters with twists and turns, and approached the reservoir dam along the vaguely identifiable village-level road.

On the dam, Yang Ming also stood on the roof of an infantry fighting vehicle and stared at it through binoculars.These past few days, he has been very worried and exhausted.During the day, it is necessary to organize manpower to receive as many airdrops as possible, and at night, it is necessary to patrol one firepower point by one firepower point.

I'm afraid that someone will be stupid and accidentally put the zombies in.He hardly slept well, his lips were covered with scorching blisters, and he also suffered from stomach problems. It hurts from eating, and it hurts when he doesn't eat.

But no matter how uncomfortable it is, as long as there is still breath, today we must pay 100% attention to the battle in the north, and be ready to lead the team to break through at any time.Even if the surrounding zombie group is not broken through, they still have to bite the bullet and rush out.

This was the first large-scale rescue operation launched by the alliance, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the army, navy and air force gathered. Even Minister Jiao came to the front line to command.If it still doesn't work, the remaining two battalions of the 8th Regiment may never have a chance to be saved, and they must die as a living horse doctor.

Ordinarily, the progress was quite smooth. Under the joint attack of air strikes, heavy artillery and infantry, the zombie group on the north side, which was originally invisible, was obviously a little bit overwhelmed, and those who rushed up did not fall down as fast.If he could stay like this for a few more hours and lead the team to charge out, most of the main force should be able to break through successfully.

But the heavy artillery suddenly stopped, and the gunfire became sparse. The air force transport plane was still circling in the sky, but it didn't drop a single bomb. Isn't this a waste of fuel?

After a brief questioning, Yang Ming was told that he was ready to break out at any time.But don't take risks, when to move and when to wait, you must obey the command of the headquarters.If you act without an order, even if you succeed in breaking out, it is considered disobedience!
It was the first time Yang Ming received this kind of order, but no matter how he didn't understand it, he had to abide by it, especially after talking directly with Minister Jiao, there was no excuse left.As long as you don't want to go to the military court for trial, you can only watch.
