Chapter 323: Gao Cheng is getting cocky?
The mine-laying vehicle was preparing to seal the entrance, but it never expected that an armed helicopter would arrive, so it did not take too many precautions.
When Sun Dongping made the plan, he never thought that Chen Jun would be so cautious and careful.
When a troop was defeated and fled by the Red Army, the Red Army not only sent nearly a company to pursue it, but also used armed helicopters to follow closely behind.
You have to know that this place is close to the rear of the Blue Army, and you may encounter the Blue Army's air defense forces at any time.
Armed helicopters are very valuable to both sides, and it does take a certain amount of courage and determination for the Red Army to send armed helicopters to pursue the enemy.
When the Red Army's armed helicopter came over, it had already received instructions from Chen Jun.
Once the Blue Army's abnormal troops are discovered and want to make adverse actions against the Red Army's troops, they can attack without reporting.
So when the armed helicopter saw the mine-laying vehicle and confirmed that it was not a pursuing unit of the Red Army, it immediately launched an attack.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."
A barrage of rockets was launched.
Before they realized it, the two mine-laying vehicles that had been targeted began to emit white smoke almost at the same time. The Blue Army soldiers who rushed out of the vehicles in a panic also had white smoke coming out of their heads, indicating that they had been killed.
"What happened? Why did the cigarette can trigger?"
"Damn it, we just came out and it's gone? I'm afraid there's something wrong."
"No, listen up, the radio is reporting from the director's office, we were hit by a rocket?"
"That sound...a helicopter. It's a helicopter."
"Everyone, look over there, it's a Red Army helicopter. We're being hit by a Red Army helicopter."
"Is the Red Army crazy? The armed helicopters actually dared to come here. This is our rear area. Aren't they afraid at all?"
……
The Blue Army soldiers who got off the mine-laying vehicle were talking at once and discussing very heatedly.
Everyone went from being confused and questioning at the beginning, to discovering various clues and details in the middle, and finally realizing what was happening.
But when he saw the Red Army helicopter, there was no chance to regret.
The Blue Army's mine-laying vehicle was shot down by a helicopter, and there was no way to seal the hole, which was tantamount to announcing the failure of the Blue Army's pocket formation in advance.
Because the incident happened too suddenly, the mine-laying vehicles were unable to send the message back in time.
As a result, the blue army decoy troops running in the front had no idea what was happening behind them and were still carrying out the second half of the plan.
After all tanks leave the exit, immediately start blocking the exit according to the plan.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, no Red Army pursuers showed up.
"Where are the Red Army soldiers? According to the time, they should be able to get here."
The Blue Army soldiers who blocked the intersection were very puzzled. They didn't know what went wrong for a moment. The Blue Army company commander anxiously sent a telegram to the battalion headquarters to inquire.
The Blue Army Battalion was also confused at the moment and could only try to figure it out temporarily.
As a result, the Blue Army Battalion had just started its investigation when the Blue Army troops guarding the exit were attacked by artillery and were instantly covered by fierce firepower.
No matter how good the quality of the Blue Army tank soldiers is, they can only make the best moves at the fastest speed.
Under the Red Army's precise and sudden artillery coverage, most of the people and tanks were still killed, and only one tank managed to escape.
The Red Army, which was originally going to be blocked here, had already received orders from Chen Jun to return.
The armed helicopter that came to support and cover observed the actions of the Blue Army troops at the exit from a distance, fed back the information to the battalion headquarters, and returned.
Only the Blue Army's decoy troops were guarding the exit, waiting there foolishly and becoming sitting ducks.
As Chen Jun's order was passed on to the heavy artillery company, the heavy artillery company, which had already been pressed behind the front line, adjusted various parameters and gave the Blue Army a big gift.
"What? Only one crew escaped?"
When Sun Dongping heard the battle report at the battalion headquarters, he was so angry that his face turned red like a pig liver. He slapped the table so hard that his palm became numb.
He thought his plan was flawless and would definitely deal a heavy blow to the Red Army.
Unexpectedly, the result was far from what was expected. Not only did the Blue Army fail to deal a heavy blow to the Red Army, but it was severely punished by the Red Army instead.
Half of the tank company that was used as a lure was almost completely destroyed as bait.
The attempt to steal the chicken ended up losing the rice!
Faced with such a humiliating and heavy blow, not to mention someone as proud as Sun Dongping, even someone with a good character would probably be defeated.
However, this was not the most uncomfortable thing. What made Sun Dongping most uncomfortable was the subsequent defense.
After fighting for an afternoon and half a night, the Blue Army had already lost nearly an armored company, half an armored infantry company and part of the artillery.
Now the Red Army has wiped out half of its tank company, leaving only one and a half companies of tanks in the Blue Army.
Adding half an armored infantry company, the Blue Army's front-line combat forces were reduced to only two companies, and they were already somewhat exhausted from defending three positions.
On the other hand, as the attacking side, the Red Army's losses are bound to be greater than those of the Blue Army.
But now the remaining troops of the Red Army are more than those of the Blue Army. There are only four platoons left in the two tank companies, and 90% of the two infantry companies are left.
The Red Army still had three companies left, which was a full company more than the Blue Army.
How to defend the three positions with weak forces has become Sun Dongping's most urgent problem. If it is not solved well, he will lose miserably.
The Blues have yet to taste defeat, and the glory of their winning streak is shining throughout the army.
The brigade that was known as the sharpening stone of the Red Army lost to the Red Army. This result was unacceptable not only to Sun Dongping, but even to the First Blue Army Brigade.
Especially Sun Dongping.
He was originally driven out from the 7th Steel Battalion. If he loses this battle to his old club, it will completely determine Sun Dongping's value in this wave of information reform.
The best outcome is that his ability is questioned and his status in the First Blue Brigade is greatly reduced.
The bad outcome is to pack up and leave again.
Sun Dongping himself knew these two results, but he could not accept either of them. His proud heart could not accept it.
In order to change his tragic ending, Sun Dongping's eyes turned red as blood.
He's ready to go to extremes!
By taking a gamble through the most extreme tactics, Sun Dongping could become the well-deserved number one in the army. If he lost, he would have to accept his fate completely.
……
The Blue Army has entered a life-and-death situation and is preparing for a final fight. The entire battalion is under tremendous pressure.
The Red Army, on the other hand, was in high spirits, with confidence evident from top to bottom.
The morale is high!
Especially Chen Jun's just now used the strategy of the Blue Army against the enemy, and it was the second time he used the strategy of the Blue Army against the enemy, without even using any special moves. He used the same tactics twice to defeat the Blue Army and defeated them in disarray, which greatly boosted the morale of the Red Army.
Chen Jun decided to launch a final general attack while the Red Army's morale was high and the Blue Army's morale was low.
Now the Blue Army's second line of defense has completely collapsed, and all the troops have retreated to the high ground behind, and the subsequent line of defense is fighting the final decisive battle.
The blue army's three positions, one main and two secondary, were in the shape of an inverted Chinese character "品". The two secondary positions were placed in the front, one on the left and one on the right, like two teeth of a pair of pliers, guarding the main position in the middle of the rear.
The Red Army is now in high spirits and definitely wants to win, and has already set its sights on the Blue Army's main position.
In order to have the best chance of winning this confrontation, Chen Jun did not decide the overall attack strategy on his own, but organized a battalion meeting.
After a discussion in which everyone expressed their own opinions, a preliminary conclusion was soon reached.
There are four ways to take the main position.
The first way is to attack from Hill No. 5 on the left. After taking Hill No. 5, use it as a springboard. Ignore Hill No. 6 next to it. Just send two platoons to keep an eye on it and directly attack the main position behind.
The second route is similar to the first route, the only difference is that Hill No. 6 is used as the attack point.
The third way is the safest.
First take the two high grounds in front, and then gather troops to attack the main position.
The fourth path is the most violent.
That is to ignore the two heights at all, choose to quickly pass through the middle of the two heights, and directly take down the main position of the Blue Army.
The fifth way is to go around the side and launch an attack from behind the main position of the Blue Army.
These five paths are completely different, and their advantages and disadvantages are very obvious.
The first and second routes are played the same way, the only difference is the attack point.
The advantage lies in being calm yet sharp, which can not only ensure the speed and rhythm of the attack, but also ensure a certain degree of safety, and win the victory more safely.
The disadvantage is that it is too mediocre and does not quite fit in with the Red Army's current high morale.
The third path is an upgraded version of the first two.
The advantage is that basically, as long as there are no natural disasters or man-made disasters, you will definitely not lose using this style of play. The minimum guarantee is a draw, and the probability of victory is 70%.
The disadvantage is that the pace is too slow and does not quite conform to the characteristics of contract tactics.
At the same time, the battle losses will be greater and the data will not look good.
The fourth approach is the most radical. The advantage is that once this plan succeeds, the data will look very good and will become a classic case and a model of blitzkrieg.
Because only a desperate and lightning attack, and a direct charge to the main position in one go, can lead to victory in the confrontation.
Once the blue troops on the high ground on both sides react, or before the blue troops on the high ground on both sides provide support, the red army will not be able to rush to the main position to plant the flag.
Then the Red Army troops surrounded on three sides would fall into an extremely passive situation.
A good situation may be overturned if things go wrong.
Gambling is very risky.
The final fifth route of the flanking attack can avoid the two high grounds in front of the Blue Army and directly face the Blue Army’s main position. There is no need to fight all the way, and the casualties will definitely be smaller.
And they can also catch the Blues by surprise and win the game at a lower cost.
The disadvantage is that the Red Army must completely avoid the Blue Army's reconnaissance, otherwise it will be very disadvantageous to the Red Army if it is discovered by the Blue Army's reconnaissance and takes precautions in advance.
Whether intercepting the supply line during the dispatch of troops or transferring troops to the main position for support, it would cause the Red Army a lot of trouble.
Now that the ideas are organized, the next step is to make a decision.
The five offensive lines can actually be divided into conservatives and radicals.
Man Guangzhi and several staff officers were not as ambitious as Chen Jun and Gao Cheng, who were bold and daring. When facing the powerful Blue Army, they all wanted to play it safe first.
At most, it's steady with a little momentum.
The tendency is to take the high ground on one side first and then launch an attack on the main position.
Gao Cheng has let Chen Jun command the army until now, and he has never lost a single battle in any exercise or competition, big or small. He has long had unconditional faith in Chen Jun's strength.
In addition, the Red Army has been conducting this exercise very smoothly so far and is generally in an advantageous position.
This gave Gao Cheng enough reason to believe that the exercise would still be won by Chen Jun and the Blue Army's defeat was a foregone conclusion.
So Gao Cheng is a little bit proud!
Now he is not just seeking to win, but has begun to pursue a higher level, to win more beautifully and more awesomely.
In order to win in the most awesome way, Gao Cheng would naturally try to kill his way through the middle.
Gao Cheng even said ambitiously: "The Blues are hanging on by a thread now, and it will only take a few minutes for us Reds to take him down.
There is absolutely no need to be so timid. I suggest you go straight to the main position.
I believe that by the time we rush to the main position and plant the red flag on their position, the Blue Army may not be able to react."
The Blues, which had won more than thirty games, became a soft persimmon that could be easily bullied in Gao Cheng's mouth.
If the troops that lost to the Blue Army and were beaten by the Blue Army heard this, they would probably be so upset that they would vomit a few mouthfuls of water on the spot.
Chen Jun wanted to support Gao Cheng's style of play, and he also wanted to win in the most spectacular way.
Now that the entire army is watching this confrontation, if we can defeat the Blues in the most spectacular way, it would be tantamount to showing off in front of the entire army.
At the same time, it can also attract the attention of senior management and allocate more resources to the 7th Steel Battalion.
This will definitely be a huge benefit with no disadvantages for the future development of combined divisions or combined brigades, and part of the road can be paved in advance.
However, the inner desire and the rationality in his mind conflicted with Chen Jun.
Based on Chen Jun's understanding of Sun Dongping, this guy who is extremely competitive and conceited will never easily accept the outcome of failure.
Chen Jun is 100% sure that Sun Dongping will still play tricks in the final battle.
Although I can't guess what it is.
But Chen Jun will definitely have it.
Without knowing what tricks Sun Dongping is playing, and the premise is that Sun Dongping actually has some tricks in his hands and can be really vicious when he uses his strength.
Chen Jun didn't want his tactics to be too radical.
Because the more extreme the pre-aggressive tactics are, the greater the error tolerance will be.
Chen Jun didn't want to take risks at this critical moment because he was too eager to pursue better data, and ended up being overturned by Sun Dongping again.
of course.
Chen Jun also didn't want to use a too conservative style of play, he just wanted to play steadily and steadily to win.
As a synthetic force that came into being in response to the needs of the information age where change is the main focus, it must win in innovative ways.
Your tactics don't have to be radical or risky, but they must be unique enough.
At least it fits the appearance of a combined forces unit!
So while everyone was discussing which path to take and the discussion was heated, Chen Jun took this time to organize his thoughts and come up with a new strategy.
This is Chen Jun's fusion of these five styles, picking out their essence and integrating them together.
Then, between radical and conservative, I chose the choice that adults should make, and I wanted both styles at the same time, and designed a very complex new style of play. (End of this chapter)
