Chapter 322: The invincible Blues also have to be suppressed!
During the execution of Operation Wild Wolf II, the entire Red Army battalion operated as fast as a precision machine, working together to complete their respective tasks.

The Blue Army's front line detected the Red Army's situation and immediately fed back to the Blue Army headquarters.

Sun Dongping, who was very conceited despite his title as a trainee and always liked to have his say, remained the same when he arrived in Zhurihe and never discussed decisions with others.

Even though the Blue Army Battalion's headquarters learned from the 7th Steel Battalion, it also set up a staff group and a first staff officer to specifically negotiate tactical plays.

Sun Dongping only used the staff group to do odd jobs and never discussed tactical decisions with anyone.

If you think you are unmatched, there is naturally no need for discussion.

Sun Dongping knew that the Red Army was replenishing its military supplies and preparing for the attack on the second line of defense, and he wanted to immediately order his troops to rush out and fight.

But thinking back to the fierce offensive rhythm of the Red Army, the tactical play made him a little breathless.

Even if Sun Dongping didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it.

He was really a little scared!

Moreover, even if they had never met, Sun Dongping could guess that the person who commanded the Red Army and put him under so much pressure could definitely not be the Red Army's battalion commander Gao Cheng.

It must be Chen Jun who had driven him out of the Seventh Steel Battalion and made him want to bite his flesh and blood.

Only Chen Jun, who looked very young, at most twenty-four or twenty-five years old, but whom he could not understand at all, could command the combined forces so sharply.

but.

Although the powerful strength displayed by Chen Jun made Sun Dongping, who led his battalion to sweep across the entire army for the first time, feel a lot of pressure, it was not enough to crush him.

Sun Dongping still has some confidence that he can turn the tide and teach Chen Jun a lesson.

Because he still has several hidden cards that he hasn't used!

Relying on the fact that he still had a trump card that could turn the tide of the war, Sun Dongping did not go out to fight during the Red Army's supplementary military training, and did not even bombard the Red Army's engineers.

The Red Army engineers were left to run around the front line, dismantling or marking the locations of the Blue Army's minefields.

It’s not that Sun Dongping didn’t want to fight, but sending out heavy artillery to bombard a few engineers was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, which was really not cost-effective.

Instead, it would expose the position of the artillery company and put it in danger of being counterattacked by the Red Army artillery.

The effort and reward are totally disproportionate.

Of course there is no need to do that.

So after the red and blue sides fought, they both stopped fighting at the same time, each busy with their own affairs, and started a new round of preparations.

The only ones still fighting during this period were the electronic warfare forces of the red and blue sides.

Through the Red Army's unimpeded command, the Blue Army has seen through the Red Army's deployment tricks and has resumed its communications interference against the Red Army.

Electronic warfare is a war without the smoke of gunpowder, but its intensity is no less than that of front-line battles.

Once the Blue Army sees through the Red Army's technology and finds new ways to interfere with and attack the Red Army, it will have a great impact on the Red Army's subsequent attack.

Therefore, the "killing intent" of the Blue Army's electronic forces at this moment must be unprecedentedly fierce.

In order to ensure the next offensive and unimpeded command of the Red Army, the Red Army must also find ways to stop the Blue Army's sabotage operations.

And we must try our best to stop the Blues at all costs.

Both sides are in a situation with no way out, and both are determined to complete their missions. This war without the smoke of gunpowder is destined to be extremely intense and fierce.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

The setting sun has fallen from the top of the mountain, and night has fallen upon the land again.

At this moment when darkness enveloped the earth, the Red Army, which had completed all preparations, launched a new round of attacks under the cover of darkness.

This time the target is the Blues' second line of defense.

As long as the Blue Army's defense line is broken through, the three Blue Army heights behind it, one main and two secondary, will be directly exposed to the Red Army.

Although attacking the high ground is the most difficult, it is also the most promising at this point.

Because as long as they take the two front secondary positions within the specified two days, they will be judged to be tied with the Blue Army.

If the Red Army can capture the Blue Army's main position, then they will win the confrontation.

Get the first blood of the invincible first blue army brigade!

He was able to completely defeat his old rival Sun Dongping, letting him know who is the best in China's contract tactics and what it means that there are always people better than you.

The armored vehicles and tanks equipped by the Red and Blue Armies are the most advanced ones our army has now.

The vehicles are already equipped with night vision equipment, and some are even equipped with infrared equipment, which can fully meet the vision requirements for night combat.

The Blues’ second line of defense was very wide, at least two or three kilometers.

They were deployed at higher terrains along the way and had a lot of camouflage and fortifications. Even with thermal imaging equipment, it was difficult to find all the blue troops.

In addition, many anti-tank pits were dug along the way, and some were even camouflaged. If a tank drove over without paying attention and fell into one, it would not be able to get out.

Therefore, the Red Army had to be extremely cautious in attacking the second line of defense.

They could only let the 3rd Armored Infantry Company and the 7th Special Reconnaissance Company, two infantry units, take the lead and use armored vehicles with stronger passability to conduct reconnaissance.

They will open up a passage in front, or find the Blue Army tanks.

Then let the armored company go up and fight with the Blue Army.

Fighting in the desert steppe terrain is different from the conventional defense line. Everyone hides behind fortifications and fights positional warfare.

Here the Blue Army tanks are separated and distributed on the defense line at a certain distance from each other.

The Red Army can only continue to fight deeper inside after clearing out and destroying or driving away all the Blue Army tanks on the defense line.

Otherwise, if the Blue Army tank hiding somewhere pops out from behind, we will be doomed.

Once the infantry discovers the Blue Army's tanks, a small-scale battle will inevitably break out. The infantry armored vehicles cannot withstand the tank guns and have to retreat from the front.

The Red Army will have to wait for the Red Army tanks behind to move up and engage in head-on combat with the Blue Army tanks. Only after the Blue Army tanks are destroyed will the Red Army be able to continue advancing.

Each battle takes a certain amount of time. The four red and blue tank companies are mixed on the same front line. Once the battle begins, fighting breaks out everywhere soon.

The tank soldiers of both sides fought back and forth, using various tactics to fight against each other.

Heavy artillery and helicopters from both sides also joined the battlefield from time to time, making the tank battle even more intense.

The Blue Army's defense was very tenacious. Even though the 7th Steel Battalion had the infantry-tank coordinated combat capabilities unique to mechanized troops, its advancement was not fast.

Sometimes, even after advancing 500 meters, the Blues would force them back.

The main battlefield was a mixed battle between heaven and earth, and the small battlefield was no less intense.

In order to obtain more intelligence about each other, the invisible electronic warfare between the two sides was in full swing, and their respective scouts were also not idle.

Usually they acted in teams and took covert routes. In the frequent mutual reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, small-scale battles were inevitable between the two sides, and people were constantly killed in the battles.

The Red Army had some special operations platoons, and the scouts they sent out were all "special forces."

Special forces do not play a big role on the front battlefield, but they are very useful in this kind of small local battlefield, especially in the anti-reconnaissance and reconnaissance aspects of both sides.

The reconnaissance team formed by special forces has absolute advantages.

As a rising star, the Blue Army's synthetic battalion was mostly "borrowed" from the 7th Steel Battalion, and its equipment was far ahead of the 7th Steel Battalion.

It’s a pity that they don’t have a “special operations platoon”!
Looking at the entire army, only the 7th Steel Battalion is a pilot unit that has an all-officer special operations platoon in the grassroots units. Because it is a pilot unit, it has such a privilege.

Zhurihe’s First Blue Army Brigade is standardized and serves as a template for the informatization of the entire military.

If it is impossible, we will not join it.

Therefore, even though the combined battalion under Sun Dongping has a background and resources far superior to the 7th Steel Battalion, Sun Dongping himself would still be jealous and want it.

The blue army combined battalion under his charge still did not have a special operations platoon.

No matter how hard Sun Dongping tried, he could only join a professional armored reconnaissance platoon in the only armored infantry company.

No matter how professional a reconnaissance platoon is, it is still not as good as a special operations platoon.

This resulted in the Blue Army lagging behind the Red Army in all aspects of ground reconnaissance. It could even be said that they were completely outnumbered by the Red Army's special operations platoon.

Three hours after the battle on the second line of defense broke out, nearly half of the Blue Army's reconnaissance platoon had been killed.

The Red Army's special operations platoon lost only three people.

If the Blue Army's electronic warfare company had not been well-equipped and had not always taken the initiative in the confrontation, the Red Army would have been on the passive defense throughout.

The special operations platoon did not dare to go too deep into the Blue Army for fear of being picked out by some kind of electronic reconnaissance.

When the 7th Steel Battalion was waiting to participate in the confrontation, the reserve area was equipped with the kind of ground vibration sensing equipment. Who knows whether the Blue Army's Electronic Company was equipped with it.

The Blue Army's intelligence had long been infiltrated, and no matter what underwear Sun Dongping wore, it would be discovered.

As the two sides fought fiercely, time passed quickly.

Eleven o'clock at night.

At this time, nearly five hours had passed since the Red Army launched the attack, and dozens of battles of varying sizes broke out between the two sides on the second line of defense.

Both the Red Army and the Blue Army suffered heavy losses, with each losing at least half an armored company on the battlefield.

Perhaps the Blues could not withstand the pressure. After all, as the defending side, their forces were more dispersed, and if the losses were heavy, they had to compress their defense lines.

When the time came to eleven fifteen, the blue army on the left suddenly began to retreat as a whole.

"Boom bang bang..."

After a series of smoke bombs exploded, a curtain wall several hundred meters long was formed in the air.

With the cover of this smoke wall, the Blue Army on the left side all began to retreat. They were not worried about the Red Army's long-range artillery, as the smoke wall could block night vision and infrared equipment.

"Report to the battalion commander, the Blue Army on the left wing is retreating, and their target is Hill No. 6..."

The situation at the front line was transmitted back to the battalion headquarters. Gao Cheng, who had been in command for almost two days without sleep, had bloodshot eyes that looked red, and he looked a little more ferocious and tired.

But when I heard the good news from the front line, my tiredness was immediately dispelled by joy.

Without hesitation, he said, "Lao Chen, this is a good opportunity. Let the Second Company catch up with them. We must kill them and never let them return to Hill No. 6."

"Yes, if we let them go back to Hill No. 6, it will be much more difficult to attack Hill No. 6." Man Guangzhi also agreed.

Then other staff officers expressed their opinions on the matter one after another.

As the commander, Chen Jun fell into deep thought.

On the left side there is half a company of Blue Army tanks, which have lost all will to fight while fleeing. It would not be difficult to capture them if we catch up with them at this moment.

If he were allowed to enter Hill No. 6, he would have the protection of air defense and heavy artillery, as well as the absolute advantage of terrain.

At that time, they will inevitably become a powerful stumbling block for the Red Army when it attacks the high ground and wins the final victory. The Red Army will pay a heavy price to eliminate them.

"Old Chen, you have to make a decision quickly. If we delay any longer, the Blue Army will all run away."

Speed ​​is of the essence on the battlefield. If the delay was not even a minute longer, the Blue Army would have run away. If Chen Jun had not been the tactical commander, Gao Cheng would have had to give the orders himself.

Hearing Gao Cheng's impatient urging, time is indeed very precious at this moment.

Chen Jun didn't think about it any further and picked up the radio to give orders, asking the Second Armored Company to chase after them as quickly as possible and make sure to wipe out the fleeing Blue Army in one fell swoop.

After the order is issued.

Chen Jun always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was for a moment. To be on the safe side, he then gave another order.

The Army Aviation Company, which had not participated in the battle, was asked to send an armed helicopter to provide cover.

Facts have proved that Chen Jun's war intuition is indeed as powerful as a god's. If there were no backup plans, the Red Army would be in great trouble.

Because the Blues suddenly abandoned their defense and fled, it was not because they couldn't hold on and fled.

But it was Sun Dongping’s trick!

Sun Dongping used half of the Blue Army's tank company as bait and indeed deceived all the Red Army members. Even Chen Jun was unable to see through his plan for a while.

When the Red Army's Second Armored Company caught up with them, they were only focused on speeding up in the middle of the night and didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment.

After chasing for more than ten minutes, they did not realize that they had entered a terrain with hillsides on both sides, which made it difficult for tanks to rush up, and there was only a lane in the middle.

What they didn't notice was that after all the Red Army troops entered the terrain, two camouflaged mine-laying vehicles suddenly appeared at the entrance.

Although the mines laid by this fast mine-laying vehicle are not as concealed as those laid manually, it has an advantage that cannot be matched by manual labor -

That's fast!

It would take at least two hours to cover the terrain entrance with a width of more than 50 meters with artificial minelaying.

The special mine-laying vehicle is like a laying hen that can lay eggs as it drives along. It can lay mines as it drives along. At a 50-meter-wide intersection, two mine-laying vehicles can work together and complete the task in just a few minutes.

If the minelayer really finished laying the mines, the fleeing Blue Army in front would turn around and block the narrow exit.

The 2nd Armored Company of the Red Army that had chased in was in a bad situation. They could neither rush out from the front nor escape from the back, which was like a turtle trapped in a jar.

There is no chance of survival, it is a situation of certain death.

Sun Dongping, who was in charge of the Blue Army's command center, heard the report from the front that the Blue Army's pursuers had fallen into a trap. He was so excited that his eyes turned red at the thought that he could swallow up an entire company of the Red Army and that victory was just around the corner.

Little did they know that when the fast mine-laying vehicle appeared, an armed helicopter also appeared in the sky not far away.
