“The sands are finally moving?”
At this time, Shapqiu was very excited. They had made everything ready in the past few days, and Chen Yi from the Titanium Kingdom had also cut off all the power that Jinsha could rely on.
Ever since it was discovered that the Holy Crown Alliance had intervened and contacted Sands, and Long and the others had blocked information from the two, the plan began to change.
Starting from the factory in Pattaya of the Holy Crown Alliance, everything was to force Jinsha Gou to jump over the wall. Even how the opponent chose to fight was in their plan, and now they have finally reached this point.
Huo Tianren also showed a rare expression of excitement, "Yes! According to what some villagers over there told us, a large-scale mobilization of personnel has begun over there. Jinsha is now forced to take the waterway, and then transfer to It’s a jungle!”
The triangular terrain makes transportation miserable. Otherwise, it would not have become a cancer that has always been a headache for the southeastern countries but cannot be solved. There is no need to count on medium tanks, heavy artillery, and armored vehicles.
For an example of jungle warfare, you can look at Mold. During the Vietnam War, Mold used tanks as fixed turrets.
Helicopters are only used when attacking difficult situations. The jungle here is dense. Who knows where a rocket will suddenly fly out from under a leaf and the helicopter will be wiped out?
Therefore, when fighting the Eight-faced Buddha, Chen Yi and Shapqiu did not expect a land attack. Instead, they suddenly attacked through the waterway and wiped out most of the opponent's effective forces.
Otherwise, even if the Eight-faced Buddha is dead, it will still take a lot of effort to solve the remaining three thousand soldiers who hide in the mountains and fight guerrillas with them.
If Jinsha wants to directly compete with Shapqiu, the biggest problem will not be weapons and equipment and personnel morale, but transportation.
In fact, there is also a cement road that has been built, which can go directly from the Jinsha site to Tachileik, but it has to go around in a big circle, and the total distance is more than 500 kilometers. . .
Jinsha would definitely not choose this route, and it would obviously not be appropriate for 20,000 to 30,000 people to take the No. 11 bus and march across more than 100 kilometers of jungle, and then engage in a firefight with Shapuqiu, which had been recuperating for a long time. Besides, because of the announcement from the Sanzu Federation, Jinsha didn’t have time to walk slowly through the jungle.
Then all the troops can only board ships and take the waterway, camp along the tributaries of the Nu River at our own military station near the Shapuqiu territory, and then plunge into the mountain jungle and take the dirt roads and trails in the mountains.
After looking at the map and thinking for a long time, Huo Tianren expressed his thoughts to Shapqiu.
"Jinsha has five strongholds in the mountainous areas on the border of Yefeng Prefecture, and his headquarters is located in Dailiang Mountain. The only way to enter is through a dirt road in the mountains specially opened by Jinsha. The section near the headquarters is also paved with cement, and there are obstacles everywhere along the way. There are barricades, railings, and soldier posts, so unless necessary, we'd better defeat the Sands in one fell swoop in the field.
Most of the troops left behind were newly joined soldiers. After the Sanzu Federation's announcement came out, most people were panicked and war-weary. The Sanzu Federation had already sent people out, and they were waiting for Jinsha to lead his men. The group of officers left the headquarters. If we use the passage, the remaining soldiers will just pretend they are invisible. "
Shapqiu looked at the Nujiang tributary on the map that spanned Yefeng Mansion, Jinsha territory and her territory. After a long time, he finally made the final decision: "Then we will prepare to warmly welcome Jinsha's arrival."
. . .
At seven o'clock in the morning the next day, five small freighters of 1,000 tons were traveling on a certain tributary of the Nu River in broad daylight, with six Hinds hovering in the sky to escort the freighters.
One day is still too hasty for Sands, but if you don't act as soon as possible, it will be a slow death.
If he had waited a few more days for the news of the Sanzu Federation to continue to ferment, it is estimated that even his veterans would not be interested in fighting, and the negative effects would have begun to show now.
For example, this time Jinsha dispatched only 20,000 soldiers, including 9,000 veterans. The remaining soldiers were not that he did not want to take them, but that most of them were very war-weary. Jinsha did not dare to take them. , if this one is not good, he will defect on the battlefield.
He even withdrew the soldiers guarding the flower field. This was a desperate battle. No matter whether he won or lost, he probably didn't have the chance to plant flowers, so why did he still keep guard?
He even gave up his headquarters and territory, just to fight for the possible chance of survival in this battle.
In this posture, Jinsha never thought of completely defeating Shapqiu. His goal was to have a quick battle with Shapqiu, take advantage and show his threat, so that Sunshine would be wary of his hot hand. Yam finally changed his mind and agreed to his pardon request.
In this way, he and a group of officers will surrender immediately. In any case, they can keep and part of their property. After the surrender, even Shapqiu can only protect him with all his strength. Otherwise, if he dies after surrendering, Sunshine's side will be with Shapqiu. Angry.
But if you can't even take advantage, then you can only go crazy on Shapqiu's territory as much as possible.
It's easy to destroy but hard to build. If he can't survive, Shapqiu won't be able to relax either!
Jinsha had already set up a temporary headquarters in a jungle 21 kilometers away from the water outpost on the Shapuqiu site. When he received the news that the last batch of personnel and materials from the front had arrived only three kilometers away from the Shapuqiu site. After setting up camp, his heart did not let go, but he felt frightened all the time.
Jinsha was also wondering. Since the order was issued yesterday, he has not stopped transporting troops. All soldiers have landed and camped on both sides of the river, and the landing points have slowly moved towards Shapuqiu's territory. , 20,000 soldiers were distributed on both sides of this 20-kilometer-long stretch of water.
It was impossible for Shapqiu not to know about such a big move, but the other party didn't show any expression and just pretended that it didn't exist.
what happened?
Although there are his military stations on both sides of this section of water, Shapqiu really wants to gather a large force to make a surprise attack before his troops land ashore. Although he does not mind fighting in this state of waiting for work, but this May delay his shot timing.
What he lacks now is time, and Shapqiu, who has single-handedly caused his current situation, cannot fail to understand this.
"General? General? What's wrong with you?"
The adjutant's call brought Jinsha back to his senses, and he asked doubtfully: "Why don't you think Shapqiu sent someone to harass us?"
The adjutant thought for a moment and then shook his head, "It's really strange. Did Shapqiu just give us time to prepare? And not only Shapqiu, but even the people in Sunshine seemed to have not seen the situation on the San Gang's side. Same.
If this had happened before, a large force would have been dispatched there to join forces with Shapqiu and other scattered gangs to suppress us. But now all parties are too quiet. What is going on? ! "
After listening to the adjutant's words, Jinsha's heart beat faster and faster.
what happened?
Could it be that the large army was suddenly attacked?
After this idea appeared, Jinsha shook his head, how could it be possible.
In this kind of jungle warfare, everyone has returned to the most primitive state of light weapons. Even if Shapqiu takes the initiative to attack, are all his soldiers vegetarian?
If we fight like this on the plains, it is possible to determine the winner quickly, but in jungle warfare it is simply impossible to annihilate a large number of the enemy's effective forces in a short time.
Unless the opponent's large force suddenly teleports to the river and launches a landing raid on the soldiers stationed in camps on both sides of the river.
But is it possible?
If there are fewer people coming, it’s just a gift. If there are more people coming, it’s impossible for so many ships to crowd together and land. As long as the frontline camp starts to attack, the rest will be ready. It’s still called a surprise attack. ?
It’s completely impossible!
boom--
An explosion interrupted Jinsha's thinking, and he and his adjutant both subconsciously lay down, "What's going on! Why are we being attacked? Could it be that the coast ahead has been captured by Shapqiu and they fought all the way here?! "
