It was a week after the news that the government army stronghold was attacked reached the rear. During this period, the top government army officials did not hear any news at all. It was not until a week later that the supply convoy did not return that the rear became aware that something was wrong.
Subsequently, the search force saw signs of the plundered supply truck and the kidnapping of all their own soldiers. .
This defeat is completely unacceptable to the military, because since the battle with the Portuguese colonists, the government forces have not yet lost. Whether it is cleaning up warlords after the war or counterattacking imported mercenaries, they have achieved great results.
Therefore, the military responded immediately. They removed a regiment of infantry, assigned an artillery company and several support and logistics troops, and prepared to march towards the border belt.
Because of the delicate relationship with South Africa, any high-profile mobilization of troops can easily cause various problems. Therefore, a regiment of infantry is already the largest manpower that the government army can mobilize, which already accounts for four percent of the entire army. One, it can be regarded as enough attention.
The mobilization of the government troops soon reached Captain Li. He had good partners in several nearby towns. These people were either people like the old Orion who lived alone but were in a pinch, or they were self-employed.
Because of the national issue and the communication with these collaborators, Captain Li assigned the old Orion to do the work. After all, everyone is a black uncle, so they will be much less wary.
And these collaborators have no objection to receiving some extra money. As for the consequences of selling information, it doesn't matter to them.
Most countries in Africa can be regarded as countries that were barely formed. The Western colonists did not consider issues such as racial distribution and ethnic conflicts at all, or they did it deliberately. After all, a turbulent and unstable Africa was very important to them. Said better control.
Therefore, for most African residents, the so-called patriotism does not exist.
Therefore, before the government infantry regiment moved in, the relevant information had already been sent to Captain Li.
"One regiment? Just one regiment. I think we were in Vietnam back then, but we were fighting against a division of enemies. Who are these guys looking down on!"
This is not Captain Lee's bragging. SOG's sabotage actions in Vietnam are deeply hated by the North. After all, if you are not careful, some important strongholds will be completely blown up by American bombings. Therefore, whenever they find those infiltrating enemies, they will mobilize A large number of regular troops and militia troops carried out encirclement and suppression.
More than one-third of the people in the alpha team are from the SOG team, so for them, the number of people is no longer a deterrent!
What's more, Shepard has come up with a very effective method of dealing with government forces, especially those in African countries.
That’s logistics!
The logistical support of most African armies is quite fragile, not just for weird small countries like The Gambia, but also for large countries like Egypt, one of the top two in Africa. In conflicts with Israel, many of the Egyptian army's failed records were due to the various opponents. This kind of interspersed siege resulted in cutting off the supply of troops.
Not to mention the logistics supply of the Mozambican army, this thing is really impossible to learn. Even if they have mysterious forces and Soviet instructors to teach them step by step, they can't do it exactly the same.
After the government army began to mobilize troops, Captain Li took the initiative very simply. He broke his unit into parts, and veterans who were proficient in jungle warfare were assigned. They drove modified pickup trucks and took the initiative in the wilderness. and appeared on the edge of the jungle, attracting the attention of government forces.
For this reason, Captain Li also forcibly demanded Rob's command, dragged the latter's few men to the plains, and then found some deserted villages and disguised them as guerrilla bases.
In order to be more similar, Captain Lee also stored the previously captured weapons and ammunition in batches in these places, and then asked Rob's men to be stationed here.
As expected, the government forces were fooled, and those pickup truck groups were regarded as the main force of active guerrillas. Then, the government forces began to encircle them, trying to surround and annihilate them.
And the pickup team is
Feign a retreat and drop the vehicle around the decoy.
After the attacking government forces discovered abandoned vehicles and abandoned villages with signs of human activity, they immediately determined that they were guerrilla camps and sent combat troops to launch an attack.
When the government soldiers entered the village, they quickly discovered the stored weapons and equipment, which greatly excited the government commander.
After all, he knows very well what kind of opponent they are facing. It is impossible for the latter to throw away these scarce materials for the guerrillas at will, so this must be the enemy's stronghold!
The government troops, who were convinced of the bait, immediately launched a larger-scale cleanup. In order not to miss anything, they even took the initiative to gather troops. This was to ensure their own safety on the one hand, and to consider supplies on the other.
The cost of food and clothing for thousands of combat troops is not a small figure, and the fuel consumed by the trucks towing the artillery is even greater. In order to ensure the progress of the front line, there are hundreds of trucks running around in the rear.
And this is what Captain Li is waiting for!
The government forces, which had no air defense capabilities at all, never imagined that the opponent they were facing actually had helicopters. Their transportation routes in the rear did not even have any protection, not to mention the army, not even the police.
The alpha team used helicopters to launch attacks on the logistics routes related to the intelligence, either sending people to use rockets to attack trucks, or laying landmines.
In a short period of time, the government forces lost more than 70 trucks, and the supplies carried on them were generously distributed by the attackers to nearby fellow villagers.
This almost paralyzed the logistics supply of the frontline troops. The soldiers could not find any food at all in the grassland. Even if a large herd of deer appeared, the trucks could not move without fuel, lubricants and other accessories.
So the frontline troops just stayed there helplessly, hoping to wait for supplies from the rear before taking action. However, even if the rear sent personnel to protect the vehicles, the PCs would always find opportunities to attack and attack them piecemeal. The losses of the trucks increased instead of decreasing. .
Looking at the consumption of the war that has already blown up the deficit before the war officially started, the Mozambican government, whose pockets are cleaner than its face, can only turn its attention to the man who symbolizes the great father's love.
"Big brother, if your pockets are empty, beat the rice as fast as you can! Otherwise I'll tell you you can't do it!"
