Chapter 67: Battle for Bordeaux City
When most of the Blue Star was in a state of relative peace, Latin, Ceris, the PsiCorps and the Moe Army were secretly conducting some physical exchanges.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is 1984. Although the Latins have lost a large mining base, they have local support and supplies from other bases as a back-up. At this moment, they have successfully established a foothold in North Africa and Europe and established their own strongholds.
Afterwards, the Supreme Command clearly formulated a strategic policy against the Meng army: continue to besiege and attack John Bull, so that the Meng army is in a dilemma of running out of ammunition and food. As for the resistance forces in Gaul, they are regarded as insignificant and vulnerable guerrillas, and they are completely ignored. Therefore, they did not regard these resistance forces as a threat. (The Meng army leaders who encircled and suppressed GLA: Let's go together)
After the tactical effect of harassing John Bull was not very obvious, the Supreme Command also changed its strategy. They had to cooperate with Latin to concentrate their advanced weapons to attack the coastal cities in southern Gaul. Among them, Su Ni concentrated a large number of Apocalypse tanks and several Stalin Fists, while Latin also took out their Disaster Air Defense Vehicles.
In the joint action of the two, the cute army in southern Gaul was completely powerless to fight back! In particular, the four Trident battleships anchored in the port of Bordeaux were captured before they could leave!
After learning the news, the Meng army naturally could not sit idly by. They knew very well that if the Su Nian army used these battleships to attack the Meng army along the coast, it would cause irreparable losses. Therefore, the Meng army leaders quickly made a response deployment:
On the one hand, an elite Eagle Army will use the super-time and space teleportation technology to rush to the Cannes area to attract the attention of the Su Army. This move is intended to disperse the Su Army's forces and create favorable conditions for subsequent operations.
On the other hand, Orian and the supreme commander of the resistance army, Alexandra, will personally lead the troops to retake the Bordeaux area. Orian will be responsible for commanding the battle in the city and engaging in a fierce battle for the city with the Su army; while Alexandra's troops will quietly lurk in the suburbs and be responsible for blocking and destroying the Stalin Fist who came to support the Su army.
For Orlando, the difficulty of this place is that the weapon support provided by his headquarters is very limited, and the highest weapon blueprint on his side is only T2 level. But fortunately, the Alloy Squad was transferred here. So he is not helpless in the face of those heavy tanks of the Su Army.
After thinking about it, Orlando also made arrangements. He would lead the armored forces to raid the bridges entering the city at night. The Alloy Squad would lead a commando team to forcibly land behind the bridges blocked by the Su army and set up defensive positions to attract the Su army's attention.
When the two troops completed their respective tasks, the sun had gradually risen from the horizon, and the Su army also noticed the defensive position established by the Alloy Squad, and they immediately began to counterattack. Now the offensive and defensive battle in Bordeaux officially kicked off.

Military Action: Balance of Power
Dawn had arrived at this time. After discovering the Meng army, the Su army blew up two bridges leading to the city and began to mobilize troops to prepare for an encirclement and suppression campaign.
"Sir, I will command the troops at the outpost to defend against the Su army's attack."
"Grimm, thank you for your assistance. Hang in there, reinforcements will be here soon."
When Orlando began mass-producing Knight tanks and Mirage tanks in preparation for the assault, Steele first prepared several engineers to repair the technological machine gun towers and bunkers around the outpost. At the same time, he began to train a large number of cute soldiers and cannon soldiers to cooperate with the armored forces of the outpost for defense.
"SOON enemy dog, watch out, truck, use your weapons to take it out."
"I'm just waiting for your order, Grimlock."
"Attention, the enemy's Scud is coming, be careful to intercept it."
"I'm here, Frost. Watch out over there. There's a suicide truck sneaking in. Blow it up quickly."
"Understood, they can't get through here."
…………
While the Alloy Squad was fighting fiercely with the Su Army, Orian had already commanded a large force to break through the Su Army's blockade at the bridgehead and had engineers repair the bridge.
"Did these guys learn their logistics from our intelligence officers?"
"Su Nien has planted a lot of spies here before. Maybe they have learned the fine traditions of our intelligence agents."
Thanks to the densely packed oil drums at the bridgehead, the commandos quickly broke through the bridgehead barrier. After letting the basic infantry seize the buildings to attract firepower and the light prism soldiers knocked down the sentry guns and garrison buildings of the Su army, Orlean's tank brigade successfully joined the outpost.
At this time, the Meng army was also constantly providing airborne troops and knight tank reinforcements. At this time, the Su army was also getting anxious.
"Send out our heavy tanks and destroy them in one fell swoop."
"Yes."
"Enemy heavy tanks appear on the west side. Everyone concentrate fire to destroy them."
"The Mirage Tanks concentrate their firepower and prioritize eliminating their Apocalypse Tanks."
Although the armor of the Moe Army tanks was not as thick as that of the Disaster and Apocalypse, facing the disadvantage in numbers, this heavy tank unit was eventually wiped out by the Moe Army after taking away a batch of Knight tanks.
After this wave of offensive ended, the Su army's offensive momentum slowed down, and they only arranged some airborne troops to cooperate with a small number of armored forces to carry out harassment.
"Steele, I need time to assemble the Archon convoy."
"Understood. I will also arrange some Prism Soldiers to cooperate with Prism Tanks to assist you in the attack. The top brass has also arranged some Shockwave Troops to provide support."
"You two, I suggest that you prioritize attacking the port on the south side because a group of reinforcements will arrive at the bridge there."
"Understood, Adjutant."
——————Ten minutes later
After the two had completed their preparations, the long-awaited moment of counterattack finally arrived. Orlean carefully organized the convoy and tank cluster into an independent team, while Steele organized the Prism Soldiers and Prism Tanks into one team. At the same time, the Urban Management and Alloy Squad also formed a commando team to tear open the defense line of the Su Army.
Then comes the popular advancement phase. The siege troops take the lead in launching an attack, trying their best to destroy the coils and various production buildings of the Su army. Other troops adopt a free-fire strategy, attacking any enemy they encounter. If they encounter an air threat such as a wolfhound, the anti-aircraft vehicle will quickly concentrate its firepower to destroy it.
"Resolutely hold out against their fierce attack!"
"I can't stand it anymore, there are too many of them!"
"Who placed this oil drum? Aa ...
As the Meng army's steel torrent continued to advance, and with the help of the mountains of oil barrels inside the Su army base, the Su army in the southern port was completely wiped out in just a few moments. At the same time, the Su army at the bridgehead was also completely wiped out. Eight majestic Abrams heavy main battle tanks escorted four prism tanks and entered the battlefield in a mighty manner.
"Well done Commander, we have recaptured the Scharnhorst and the Warspite. They will head to the English Channel to reinforce the defenses there."
When attacking the northern port, Steele did not hesitate to use his two commandos as the vanguard. They were like a sharp dagger, piercing the enemy's heart. When encountering garrison buildings, the city management used flash bombs to deal with them; facing the threat of bunkers and coils, the light prism troops took advantage of the range and destroyed them with a round of salvos; as for the armored forces, the alloy team and those Abrams were responsible for handling them.
With such efficient cooperation, the two battleships Renown and Daring were quickly recaptured. They successfully joined forces with the previous two battleships, and under the protection of the Mediterranean Fleet, they headed towards the English Channel.
The following battle was almost a foregone conclusion. When the troops of the two commanders successfully occupied the key bridge leading to the Su Army base, although the Su Army tried its best and used a large number of Buratino rocket vehicles and Scud missiles to strengthen the defense, these resistances seemed pale and powerless in front of the steady and steady advancement strategy of the two commanders. In the end, this huge complex base was completely destroyed by the Meng Army and its small cost. The generals of Su Ni and Latin had no choice but to take armored vehicles and quickly evacuate the battlefield with the remaining troops.
Under Orlean's blitzkrieg, the city of Bordeaux was successfully recaptured by the Meng army. The Su army here was either destroyed or forced to evacuate. This battle also eliminated the threat of the Su army to John Bull's homeland.
However, the sticky army would not give up. They arranged some Stalin's Fists in the suburbs of Bordeaux and also collected a batch of Stalin's Fists from other war zones, preparing to use these mobile production lines to regroup. When the time comes, they will march across the border to recapture the port.
To counter this threat, a resistance commander will command a group of elite troops to destroy the Stalin's Fists in advance.
