Wang Qi returned early and dealt with a lot of matters before the demons withdrew from the temporary world gate in batches.
In the first round of temporary gates, the demons failed to pass through in batches. When they are found to be evacuating in the second round, they will take some main world craftsmen, dancers and the like hostage.
After Wang Qi left last time, in accordance with the arrangements Wang Qi left, the army monitored them throughout the process while maintaining a low contact rate. With the support of the 301st Battalion, they analyzed the abilities of all types of demons one by one and analyzed them. Archive.
After Wang Qi did not come back, the generals still showed their initiative and formulated corresponding combat plans with the help of the staff.
Probably because they failed to "guess what is best", they customized a combat plan with the goal of rescuing at least some of the humans in the main world.
In fact, Wang Qi had never considered this aspect. When he came back for the meeting, he felt strange after seeing the plan.
However, the plans were well prepared and some simulation training was done in between. The generals and regimental commanders expressed their confidence and there was no need to attack them.
While dealing with other matters, Wang Qi himself also reflected on the fact that as some military aircraft and ground weapons were updated, the military indeed needed a combined operation to accept the results and provide direction for future tactical strategies.
Wang Qi has experienced the information age and has a certain understanding of the comprehensive battle of earth, sea, air, space and electricity, but this is a magical world with magical power, so it is not advisable to copy it mechanically.
For this reason, a group of soldiers can be sacrificed appropriately and a group of equipment can be destroyed.
However, casualties must be controlled and combat objectives must be changed.
Saving people... can be considered when other combat objectives are completed.
The first operational goal is to achieve overseas air-ground coordinated operations.
The demon evacuation force is a highly mobile force. In the context of floating islands, if the army wants to participate in combat, it must rely on airborne means.
The infantry troops in the process of airborne are completely targets when facing the demons. They still have to prepare the battlefield and complete several batches of troop and equipment transportation in advance. The air force needs to drive the demons to the area in the first stage.
The intelligence of the demons themselves cannot be ignored. Once the air force's intentions are discovered, there is the possibility of changing the marching route.
This involves the air force's own combat capabilities.
In fact, no matter which world it is in, the air force is not good at annihilation operations.
The magic world has its own peculiarities. The demon evacuated troops are also air units. Many of the air force's crude ground weapons cannot be used, so they can only fight with machine guns.
The existing air force cannons have not yet been upgraded. Even after the upgrade, they will only have an attack range of two thousand meters. Fighters using the cannons need to fly head-on and leave enough safe distance to turn. They cannot fire several rounds in one round. .
The hit rate of air-launched artillery shells is lower than that of ground-based designs. In addition, the "turn-based" strike method will leave the enemy sufficient time to re-prepare shields and other protections, and the limited air force cannot maintain hundreds of aircraft on the battlefield for a long time. Due to the size of the fighter planes, they cannot be expected to annihilate the demon evacuating troops alone, or even cause serious damage.
Without the support of ground troops, they can only harass and guide without showing their intentions.
As for how not to reveal the guidance intention, it is a matter for the Air Force staff.
The staff of the headquarters needed to predict the planned return route of the demons, and finally decided to set the battlefield on the neighboring island to the west of the western floating island.
This floating island is still part of the grassland and belongs to the concept of "Western Area". The main reason for choosing this island was because the island demons have been trying to make a detour in recent times to avoid moving close to the border. However, they were unlikely to take long detours when transporting their trophies back. There was a high probability that they would have crossed through the Western District far away from the border.
The ground forces participating in the operation included two battalions each from the 1st Regiment, the 41st Regiment, and the 301st Battalion. It was not that they did not want to expand the scale, but they could not move more.
This is the first time that the 301st Battalion has participated in a direct battle, but the entire staff, like Wang Qi, does not particularly trust them.
But trust is a two-way street. If you don't give them a chance, you will never know which part of them can be reused. So far, the leader of the 61st Regiment is still an agent of another clan.
In order to achieve the two goals of "not increasing the security risk of other troops" and "the 301st regiment participating in combat" at the same time, their joining nodes will be different.
The 301st Battalion is all mid-level demons, but not all flying demons. They can organize a company to cross the floating island on their own. The rest are more anxious and need transportation. However, they still have advantages over conventional troops. Since the demons are basically All have innate abilities or spells, so the total weight of weapons and equipment required will be smaller than that of an army of the same size.
After considering various conditions, it was decided to let the 301st Battalion perform the task of blocking the westward escape route.
Locate the battlefield according to the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. To the east, the demons will face a greater density of air force resistance. To the south is their frontal blocking force. To the north, go back. To the west, it is a very reasonable judgment to evacuate and try to go around.
Overall, there are similarities but also huge differences with the battle in the Eastern District when the first temporary world gate was opened.
During the battle in the eastern region, there was a nearby lord city on the back, and the terrain was more complex than the grassland, so there was no risk of the ground troops being encircled. At that time, the demons did not have a cluster of intermediate demons that were integrated into the open space. There were simply some flying demons mixed in with the groups of little demons.
There are differences in the composition and equipment of the troops on both sides. Only by "discussing" again can we know their progress.
Considering that it is impossible to ensure the complete annihilation of the high-level demons, the "exchange" will also provide military intelligence to the demons, and not only our own side can benefit.
You can try any other specific responses and changes the demons can come up with. In the final analysis, Wang Qi's goal has never been the demons. Dealing with changes in the demons' conventional military strength is only the most basic requirement for his own army, and it must be done. After all these years of hard work, it’s time to see how it turns out.
If you can't even pass this level, you won't even need to mention the stuff that is closer to the world's will later on. You'll just be a tortoise and just go for the spectacle attraction route.
If everything goes well, then consider the second and third combat objectives.
The second goal is to counter-robbery and see what loot the demons will reveal and whether it is consistent with what the members of the 301st Battalion described.
The third goal is to save a victim who has saved the world while controlling casualties as much as possible.
To put it bluntly, the butt determines the head. Wang Qi is now in the position of king, and he must clearly distinguish between compatriots and outsiders. It is impossible for his own soldiers to risk their lives to rescue one or two hundred outsiders who do not pay taxes. If you want to be rescued, it depends on whether the character is tough or not.
The military department spent more than half a month revising the campaign objectives and implementation methods, but time waits for no one. With relatively limited air transport capacity, in order to ensure sufficient combat effectiveness on the front line, the army did not wait until the demons evacuated the main world in groups. Bian has already begun ground deployment work.
The western area was originally called Tall Grass Plains. It turned into a mediocre grassland when it took off. Later, as the climate evolved, most of the weeds were wiped out and the Tall Grass Plains were gradually formed.
The environment has certain shielding for ground troops. When facing a real battle, another important issue is fire extinguishing.
You can't dig the isolation belt, it looks too obvious from the air. Fortunately, because the little devil often sets fires, and the army also has magic fire extinguishing equipment, it is not a big problem.
It's just that the grassland environment is still too flat after all, making it difficult to hide some larger equipment, and the camouflage effect is not effective enough in the magic field of vision.
After the demons were successfully introduced into the target area, the ambush circle was discovered a little early. The fighting distance was slightly far and the killing effect was not good.
Fortunately, the combat commander on the demon side had a hole in his head. I don’t know whether he got carried away in the main world or was driven away by fighter planes for several hours with few casualties. He really felt that he could fight, so he actually chose to increase the flight altitude to impact.
The combat commander on the demon side has a hole in his head.
I don’t know whether it was because I was getting carried away after three rounds of tossing in the main world without feeling any resistance, or because I was driven by fighter jets for several hours with few casualties. I really felt that I could fight, so I actually chose to increase the flight altitude to impact.
From a normal perspective, increasing the height is actually a good strategy for dealing with firearms. A gun with a horizontal killing range of about 600 meters will have its lethal range shortened by nearly half, and its hit rate will also be reduced due to ballistic calculation habits, which is beneficial to Balance the controllable distance disadvantage of Magic Strike.
But our own army has organic cannons. The resistance ratio of the larger projectile of the cannon is smaller. The strike continuity of the ground cannon is not comparable to that of the air force. The vibration impact factor of the magic cannon is still low, and the hit rate is much higher than that of gunpowder. type.
The new Tearer cannon used the heavy rain mode (energy-saving mode) of the previous generation to fire a wave, sweeping down a large area of them.
The biggest pitfall of the demon clan is revealed - this is not a professional army.
