Chapter 153 Opportunity
"The day of the cave is a rewarding day for Pei Chengyi. Early in the morning, the staff changed shifts on the website because of the limited staff, so the staff of the front line command worked in two shifts and changed shifts with the old point at 7 o'clock. Good news came from Allah Abad. After staying in Ronto, the defenders finally surrendered to the fallen army outside the city.
Contact Qu Maokang, Pei Chengyi ordered the second purchaser to go to Edavao after he ordered the battle thug to clear the battlefield and handed over the garrison mission to the Nepal Army. The logistics troops went to Manigpur to perform the material transportation task. Although the fallen army needed to rest, the artillery and logistics troops who did not go to the front line were in good condition, and they could also rest in Edavao and Manigpur.
This deployment directly reflects Pei Chengyi's judgment on the situation.
The surrender of the Allah Abad defenders is undoubtedly great news, which means that the 4th Army can obtain a heavy armored army after the old days. That is, it will have a decisive impact on the entire battle situation. According to Pei Chengyi's plan, "the capture of Bhopal on the 3rd of the Kouyue, and a new round of attacks on the 6th of the Kouyue, the westward troops are likely to be stubbornly blocked by the Indian army in Ujain, Indore, or some other side. Although the heavy army can be taken on the heavy responsibility at that time, according to Pei Chengyi's plan, the Kou Army will go south to replace the Yaojun and the Dajun. Undertake the combat task of sweeping the Bay of Bengal coastal areas, the two strategic reactive troops that have fought for more than ten days will be rested. Even if there is no need to invest three armies on the Bay of Bengal coastal battlefield, the two strategic reactive troops will not only be easier to mobilize, but also have a greater role in the inland battlefield than the heavy armored troops.
In the first place, it is unlikely that the Jiujun will participate in the Western Conference. After the He army occupied Bhopal, it will definitely need to rest and replenish its troops. The Zhanjun needs to shoulder the heavy responsibilities on the battlefield on the Western Front. That is to say, if the combat effectiveness cannot be restored as soon as possible, Pei Chengyi can only launch a large-scale attack with the Strategic Reaction Army. Although actual combat has proved that the rapid assault capability of the Strategic Reaction Army is much better than that of the Heavy Armored Army and performs more prominently in large-scale offensive operations, actual combat also proves that the Heavy Armored Army can provide strong support for the Strategic Reaction Army and replace the Strategic Reaction Army to attack the strong regiment positions. In the decisive battle on the Eastern Front, the Blue Army and the Knife, the fallen army and the army, the relaxed army and the sword army can all prove that the advantages of the Heavy Armored Army are very obvious in the face of the enemy's defensive positions, especially the strong fortification cities. Whether the Heavy Armored Army supports the Heavy Armored Army will be completely different.
From a tactical perspective, sending the two artillery brigades of the fallen army to Edavao proves that Pei Chengyi still has some concerns about the battle in the direction of Bhopal. It is not that he is worried that he will not be able to defeat Bhopal, but that the Indian army will be anxious to jump over the wall.
Because the main force was placed in the battle of the city, only the thugs and mechanized infantry brigades were left on the periphery.
Before dawn, Pei Chengyi discovered this problem when he reexamined the battle deployment.
The Mechanized Infantry Brigade needs to defend a line of about a thousand meters long. Although the problem is not big on the south side, the Indian army is wanted to cross the Nalmoda River when defending the ferry. The problem is not big on the north side. The Armored Brigade in the northeast direction can use a reserve team to defend the right wing, but the problem is big on the west side. On the defense line that exceeds the Choujianmi, there is only 4 kilograms of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade. The combat battalion has an average defense line of more than 1,000 meters in the field, and the military density is only 1,000 meters per kilometer. There is no doubt that this is a line of defense without any guarantee.
Duqiwei cannot see such an obvious loophole.
Although the Indian army has little hope to defend Bhopal, if you can delay one more day, you will have more hope. The Indian army will never give up easily. Bhopal's defenders have no hope and can only pin their hopes on reinforcements. If the Indian army can break through the defense line of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade, it will force Pei Chengyi to use some of the troops used for attack to defend, weaken the power to attack Bhopal, and delay the operation to capture Bhopal.
The Indian army will definitely do this and will take action soon.
If there is another choice, Pei Chengyi will definitely be willing to invest more troops, even if there are thugs or air assault brigades, they can defend the entire line of defense.
There is no way to increase troops. I can only rely on firepower.
The strength of the two artillery brigades that fell into the army should not be underestimated. The addition of two artillery brigades is equivalent to double the artillery that has been put into Bhopal offensive and defensive war.
Of course, just investing in artillery is not enough.
After the order was issued, Pei Chengyi asked Yuan Chenhao to adjust the combat operations of the Land Aviation, dispatch the Land Aviation's vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft, and assist the Diying Mechanized Infantry Brigade in occupying the commanding heights on the defense line. This is a very ordinary and effective tactic. As long as the commanding heights are controlled, the infantry can guide artillery to fight and deal with the enemy's offensive troops in a direct strike. Of course, this is also a tactic often used by the air assault troops. Fortunately, the Diying Mechanized Infantry Brigade does not lack infantry. Moreover, the Zhaocunkou Infantry Combat Vehicle can be lifted with a 10,000 transport aircraft after unloading the additional armor. Using the land-to-mouth infantry fighting vehicle to guard the hill is simply a waste of talent.
Pei Chengyi finally breathed a sigh of relief after the Land Airlines' vertical take-off and landing transport plane set off.
The deployment has been reached, and the next thing we will see is whether the Indian army has the courage to come up and die.
In fact, Pei Chengyi overestimated the fighting spirit of the Indian army.
Although according to the information obtained after the war, Duqiwei contacted the Indian Army Command in the early morning of the day and asked the reinforcements in Bhopal to speed up the march and attack the Mechanized Infantry Brigade from multiple kilograms to make a breakthrough as soon as possible. Be sure to arrive at Seher on the night of the 2nd of the month. The "Du Army Command did not give such a command, but let the reinforcements" speed. Build a defensive position in the west of Seher. Judging from the situation at that time, when the Mechanized Infantry Brigade was deployed in place, the Mechanized Infantry Brigade was deployed in place.
Even if the Indian army acted as Duchiwei's order, it would not be able to reach Seher. Instead, it would exhaust its combat effectiveness in the assault operation. Because the reinforcements were dispatched from neighboring areas, two divisions had been lost in front, and the loss of two divisions would lead to empty defense in depth. Therefore, the Indian army could not take risks. From another perspective, even if the Indian army reinforcements arrived at Seher on the night of the 2nd of the Guyue, they would not be able to continue to advance. It is very likely that they were surrounded by the Mechanized Infantry Brigade in Seher and were defeated with the defenders of Bhopal.
The Indian army gave up its proactive attack, which was equivalent to giving Bhopal to the Republican army.
Before lunch, Pei Chengyi received the second good news.
The Armored Brigade of the Diyuan Army captured the headquarters of the 3rd Infantry Division, which was responsible for the defense mission of the western urban area of Bhopal. The division was about to be known as the officers and soldiers of the descent were surrendered.
Although it was just a temporary preparation division, the surrender of the entire division still benefited a lot from the Armored Brigade of the Destroyer.
In Pei Chengyi's opinion, this was a very good sign. After receiving the news, he immediately asked the Diyuan Armored Brigade to inspect the division's material conditions. The result made Pei Chengyi secretly surprised. With sufficient basic supplies, the entire Dijingtian Infantry Division surrendered, indicating that the Indian army's will to resist had collapsed.
More importantly, the 3rd Milk Infantry Division has a Bhopal defense deployment map.
Although the map is not complete, such as the structural diagram of the Northeast defensive position, there are defense deployments in adjacent urban areas and specific situations of the defensive forces.
With this information, the Armored Brigade of the Diyuan chose the most suitable offensive route.
The most important information on the map is not the defense deployment of the Indian army, but the clearly marked Bhopal City Defense Command. As Pei Chengyi expected, the City Defense Command is located underground. It is buried with a deep meter depth and has reinforced concrete with a thickness of more than the old meter on it. It is connected to the underground tunnel system in the northeast direction by at least more than a piece of underground passage. It is difficult to blow up with an ordinary ground-boring bomb, and the direct bombing effect will not be much better.
In the afternoon of the same day, Pei Chengyi handed over the map photo sent back by the Armored Brigade of the Earth to Lu Chengwen.
How to deal with the Indian Army City Defense Command is Lu Chengwen's business and has nothing to do with Pei Chengyi. According to Pei Chengyi's requirements, in addition to special bombs, Lu Chengwen can mobilize all military forces under the front-line command headquarters, and must destroy the Indian Army's command center within hours.
After making this arrangement, Pei Chengyi advanced the time to capture Bhopal to the 3rd of the mouth.
As long as the Indian army's command center can be blown up, the Indian army can force the Indian army to surrender. It seems that there is sufficient confidence. Pei Chengyi asked the Nu army's logistics troops to rush to the front line that evening and prepared to assist the combat troops in containing prisoners of war. In order to make Bhopal the starting point for the attack of the Republic's army as soon as possible, Pei Chengyi also sent a convoy of hundreds of heavy trucks. In addition to transporting equipment and materials for the construction of infrastructure, he was also responsible for transporting prisoners of war to the rear.
That night, Pei Chengyi received the third good news. To be precise, it is not good news.
The assault troops operating in the south of New Delhi captured Hatlers east of Mathura, and then exchanged fire with the Indian army north of Hatlers, and annihilated the thugs, an Indian armored division in the fierce battle. According to Ling Yunxiao's report, after annihilation of the second Indian armored division, the assault troops will pounce on Mathura again.
After weighing the pros and cons, Pei Chengyi adjusted the combat operations of the assault troops and asked Ling Yunxiao to move south after the night annihilation war ended and prepare to return to Zhanxi.
In other words, the assault troops have been completed, and as long as they can return to Zhanxi in time, they can ensure that everything is foolproof. Because they know that Ling Yunxiao is a very impulsive person, Pei Chengyi emphasized that Bhopal's battle is about to end and the main force will advance west soon. If the sword army cannot recover its combat effectiveness as soon as possible, they will definitely miss the next good show. There is no doubt that Ling Yunxiao will not let the sword army stay behind to watch the fun. Although in the state of the sword army, even if they return to Zhanxi in time, it is unlikely that they will recover their combat effectiveness before the gongyue Zhan day, especially the sword thugs. The armored assault brigade and the armored assault brigade of the second sword need to be supplemented. It will take half a month to make the new recruits adapt to the battlefield environment. However, Pei Chengyi knows Ling Yunxiao's character very well. As long as the sword army can still fight, even if only one brigade can fight, he will not miss any opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
For Ling Yunxiao, he had no other choice.
After the establishment of the sword army, Ling Yunxiao was the commander of the army for many years. Except for a few major generals who were retired, they were promoted in drought, and only he was the major general. According to the personnel system of the Republic, if Ling Yunxiao had not been promoted before the Libian Year, he would have to retire gloriously. There is no doubt that Ling Yunxiao definitely did not want to retire, and he did not want to hand over the sword army he had built to others. In other words, Ling Yunxiao must seize all the opportunities in this war and strive to be promoted to Lieutenant General during the war. Even if he could only stay at the 7th wave as the commander, it would be ten thousand times better than retirement. With Ling Yunxiao's prestige in the sword army, in order to keep the commander, the officers and soldiers of the sword army would fight to the death.
It can be said that these three things that happened on the Month Talker Day basically determine the overall situation of the war.
In the early morning of the 2nd of the month, Lu Chengwen began to act.
After the two straits were deployed, Lu Chengwen sent a total of 2 to carry out special tasks. Pei Chengyi clearly required that special bombs could not be used, so Lu Chengwen could only let the bombers use super bombs weighing kilograms, and they used 3 at a time. In special terms, Xiaokuo fighter arrived and threw 4 heavy drilling bombs of kilograms of knife edges to the same location in turn. Because the crater was too deep, buildings in the city had an impact on the bombing. So he could only
The special forces used laser illuminators to guide the targets on the roofs of nearby buildings. The first two bombs exploded through the reinforced concrete at the top of the Indian command center, and the last two bombs drilled into the inside of the command center to explode. In order to confirm the bombing results, the special forces not only used advanced detection instruments to measure the appearance of various explosions, but also went down to conduct on-site inspections. In order to ensure the safety of the special forces, the artillery provided the artillery with the cover of artillery fire after the key bombing was completed.
Just half an hour later, Lu Chengwen handed over to Pei Chengyi.
In order to maximize the effect of destroying the Indian command center, before dawn, several bombers sprinkled millions of leaflets over Bhopal and issued the final sign to the Indian army guarding the city. That is, before the 2nd of the ferry point on the 2nd of the mouth, if the Indian army still did not surrender, it would launch a devastating attack.
There is no need to wait that long. Before dawn, a group of Indian troops surrendered on their positions.
The whole process was as expected by Pei Chengyi. After the Indian army picked up the leaflet, it would definitely try to contact the command center to verify the content on the leaflet. The Shandong Indian army found that it could not contact the command center. The morale would quickly return to zero and no longer have the intention to fight. For the army without any fighting spirit, surrender was the only choice.
Of course, Pei Chengyi has returned to the tripod and has something to do.
After breakfast, Pei Chengyi began to arrange the next command work, leaving Yuan Chenhao fully responsible for tactical actions.
"Why pack your luggage?"
"Of course I'm going home." Pei Chengyi smiled and said. "I'm afraid I'll delay going back this time. As soon as possible, I can only rush back before the next round of attacks. The front-line command will be left to you.
"How did you know you want to go back?" Yuan Chenhao was a little confused because he had not received any news that Pei Chengyi would return to China.
"Why, don't you believe it?"
"You received the transfer order?"
"Of course, no." Pei Chengyi stuffed the last two clothes into his travel bag. "But I'm sure we'll get the message before we have lunch."
"Okay, can you guarantee that you didn't send an order to come here just after Pingwu?"
"Then let's make a bet, not too much. A pack of cigarettes."
Yuan Chenhao immediately took out a pack of cigarettes. Anyway, the cigarettes from the front-line command were provided for free. He didn't have to pay for it.
Before Pei Chengyi could take the cigarette, Dongfang Yin rushed over.
"Why, you're out of cigarettes?"
Yuan Chenhao smiled and shook his head, and placed the cigarette on the table.
"By the way, the Internet received a message from the General Staff Department and asked General Pei to go back immediately. The plane was ready."
"How is it, are you losing?" Pei Chengyi picked up the cigarette on the table. "The things that should be explained have been explained. There will be no major changes in the past few days. There is only one thing to pay attention to. That is, keep a close eye on Ling Yunxiao, don't let him stay outside for too long, and the assault troops return to the post of Zhanxi. All the things that draw the 7th Army to rest are thrown to him. Let him have something to do, otherwise it will definitely cause us trouble. Finally, there is the Indian army's defense adjustment in the north bank of the Nalmoda River. Arrange the reconnaissance work as soon as possible, formulate an offensive plan before I come back, and decide on other things after I come back."
"When will the work of the Huojun to exchange Mijun and the Dajun?"
"After the battle in Bhopal is over, let's not worry about what Fu Weimin said. If he has any objections, he will say it was my order." Pei Chengyi paused for a moment and said, "If you have any trouble, call me and I will tell Fu Weimin. After the Wa Army and the Dajun come back, replace the guild army first and rest in Jamshedpur. Should I join the war? Let's make a decision after I come back."
Yuan Chenhao smiled bitterly and said, "What should I do if Li Jixian and Dong Chengfang come to him?"
"Stay closed the door and let them come to me."
"That's what you said."
"Of course, what else do they dare?" Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "I have arranged the rest and rest of the army first. I have arranged the work of replenishing the troops. You don't have to worry about it. In a word, if you encounter troubles that cannot be solved, let the commanders come to me, and don't bother with them."
Yuan Chenhao nodded to show that he understood Pei Chengyi's meaning.
As a colonel officer, he was indeed half short in front of those major generals and lieutenant generals. Pei Chengyi was different. With his status, no commander dared to say three things in front of him.
.
"That's it." Pei Chengyi picked up his travel bag and finally said, "Is there anything I need to take back?"
"No, I've asked someone to take it back."
Pei Chengyi nodded and called Dongfang Wen to go out.
Yuan Chenhao breathed a sigh of relief and waited for a while before leaving Pei Chengyi's bedroom.
At this time, the General Staff asked Pei Chengyi to go back, and he must make arrangements for the next stage of offensive action. According to Yuan Chenhao's understanding, the entire war plan might change.
Chapter completed!
