"We must capture Gaoling as soon as possible and cooperate with domestic negotiations!" Han Weiguo became the highest commander of the Eastern Front. "A division can just clear the remaining places. We must fully trust the South Vietnamese guerrillas and let them take over the power first, and wait until our war is achieved, and then mobilize personnel from the country to replace them..."

Due to the fast enough attack speed and the cooperation of South Vietnam's rebellious guerrillas, Vietnam has not yet decided where to mobilize troops. Although Vietnam has more than 600,000 troops, the elite troops are only more than 200,000, of which 100,000 are in the Khmer territory and more than 100,000 are in the north.

Even if all the ordinary infantry divisions are equipped with Suzhou equipment, their combat effectiveness is far worse than that of the educated Youth City army with aircraft, cannons and tanks...

So far, the Longchuan Front has already had three divisions of troops, and it is completely enough to sweep the north bank of the Mekong River to the south bank of the Sai Kung River.

In this area, Vietnam has only less than two divisions of troops, and it is still the most ordinary local garrison division, and it has no combat power at all.

"Before this, they would not mobilize troops from Phnom Penh to intercept us, but they can't explain it clearly. After all, this is their homeland..." Han Weiguo did not say that this was the meaning of the educated Youth City, but said to several division commanders under his command.

"Old Han, we are stocking up so many troops here, which is very stressful for logistics! We can't use so many troops to attack the front line at all, so one division is enough. We can fully fight from Gaoling to Ho Chi Minh City in one go!" The Third Division of the Education Youth Division is also an armored division, but the number of tanks equipped is not large.

"You can't underestimate the enemy. Ho Chi Minh City will be our last decisive position this time, and our strategic goal does not include this city! If it can be won, it is better." Han Weiguo naturally knew that he must attack north with a faster offensive rhythm. "There is at least one division's force retreating from Longchuan. Plus the front, if the advantageous position is used, it can completely cause greater losses to us. The Zhiqing City means to quickly capture Midi and Xin'an, divide troops in Ho Chi Minh City, one attacks Xining westward, and the other surround Ho Chi Minh City. If it can quickly capture Ho Chi Minh City, then take Ho Chi Minh City first!"

Pointing to a large scale military map, Han Weiguo introduced their combat goals.

Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in this area and a city that the Vietnamese army cannot lose.

Once this city is taken down by them, it will completely threaten the further area.=

"In this way, if we divide the troops, it will be easy for Xining's troops to be attacked from both sides!" Looking at the situation of the troops attack on the military map, Wu Di, commander of the Third Division of the Education Youth Division, frowned tightly, and the others also frowned and looked at the map deeply, "What do you think above? To attack Xining, you must take down Ho Chi Minh City!"

"In this way, our offensive speed will be slower, and our casualties will definitely not be small!" Han Weiguo also knew.

This is something that can't be done.

Ho Chi Minh City is a landmark city in Vietnam.

As long as it is occupied, it will not be easy to retake northern Vietnam!

"Then destroy this city!"

"Absolutely not! This city is not like Longchuan, with more ordinary people. Moreover, it is impossible to evacuate like Longchuan before the war..." Han Weiguo was helpless, "The biggest problem in this battle is Ho Chi Minh City."

After occupying Saigon, Vietnam has been strengthening the management of the city. In order not to remember the former South Vietnamese government, it changed the city name to Ho Chi Minh City.

"The embankment is too small, and the terrain is not suitable for our armored forces to fight!"

"So first capture Xining, then turn around and siege Ho Chi Minh City!" Yang Wei, Gan Yuan and others from the educated Youth City thought, but did not tell them that they only needed to achieve their strategic goals.

After studying the combat policy, the tank regiment of the First Division of the educated youth who invaded Vietnam on the eastern front was the vanguard and began to launch a fierce attack on the Gaoling Mountains. The Longchuan defenders who lost most of their heavy equipment and the defenders on the Gaoling Line basically retreated from the Gaoling Mountains to Midi in the east without decent resistance.

Then, he retreated all the way to the embankment city in front of Ho Chi Minh City. Orders from the senior management prevented them from retreating again.

The First Division of the educated youth did not launch a rapid attack, and some of them could not keep up with the logistics support.

Such a problem is also a big problem for Nipponsan. Although the territory is not large, the front line is too long and it must pass through the south and transport materials from Longchuan to the north. The number of trucks is insufficient and the train cannot pass through.

"There is a problem with the logistics?" Yang Wei was speechless, "Haven't we have been strengthening logistics transportation guarantees over the years?"

"Commander, we are indeed strengthening logistics transportation support, but the consumption on our front line is too huge, especially the artillery shells, which are basically bombed with artillery shells, and fuel supply and other things have to be transported from the Zhiqing City to Longchuan. Our trucks are not enough..."

Material reserves are enough, but they do not have strong enough transportation capacity.

Zhao Hai, a professor in charge of logistics, has basically never slept well during this period. Their logistics and transportation troops have been desperately transporting materials to the front line, but the consumption of the front line is really too great.

"The commander of Han Weiguo asked that at least 100,000 shells and 3 million rounds of ammunition were needed. The embankment had gathered about two divisions of the Vietnamese army. If infantry attacks, it would easily cause excessive casualties..." Gan Yuan also knew this.

Logistics support, they have been considering these issues since the beginning when they established armored forces.

However, after so many years of construction, I still cannot keep up with the offensive rhythm.

"Then organize a team of civilians and husbands to transport it in a relay manner!" Yang Wei said gritting his teeth.

When the observation group from China learned about this, they did not express any opinions, but directly and silently recorded them in their small notebooks. Although the country did not do this inauthenticly, and the peace talks with monkeys would cause Nipponsan to be very passive, but when Liu Yijiu spoke, they did not conflict too much.

Of course, I don’t have the enthusiasm I used to be.

"Nipdosan's logistics force is so huge that hundreds of trucks cannot guarantee the supply of the front line?" When they came down, someone in the Chinese observation team sighed, "This is even larger than our domestic logistics support team!"

"Although they are huge, they do not have enough reserves in Vietnam, and the front line consumes too much. In just a few days of attack, they have consumed about 150,000 shells, and the fuel consumption of hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles. These trucks are our country's liberation, with limited carrying capacity. The distance from the Zhiqing City to the front line is long enough..."

"This is even greater than the consumption we used to in the self-defense counterattack!"

"Okay, let's feedback on this matter first. They don't like us, probably because of the domestic negotiations with Vietnam..."

Liu Yijiu did not interfere in the domestic negotiations with Vietnam. However, in order to withdraw troops from the north, the negotiations were progressing very quickly, so he was too lazy to care about these issues.

The news from Nipponan made Li Yunlong annoy him again.

"Strengthen the logistics support capabilities? Isn't their logistics support very strong?" Liu Yijiu was a little surprised. Although Nippodosan had an army of 100,000 people, most of them would not leave their inherent positions. "Is there a problem with their logistics supply?"

"Yes, you can understand it by looking at the battle report first..." Li Yunlong said helplessly, "Although our Blue Army has strong logistical support capabilities, if we conduct long-distance combat, this will have the same problem as them, mainly because the consumption is too high. Moreover, medical insurance on the front line is also a problem. The battlefield hospital cannot quickly follow the troops to move, otherwise it will easily have problems and be dismissed by the enemy's active troops behind the enemy..."

All kinds of problems were exposed one by one during the war.

"The transportation capacity of the Z-91 is not huge enough, and it also has to be armed, which makes the transportation cost very high. If it weren't for the desperate storing of various materials before the war, they would have no logistics capabilities to continue the war. According to estimates, the battle in Ho Chi Minh City would consume at least 200,000 shells and more bullets, and the air bombing continued..."

The consumption of the Blues will be even greater than that of Nippodosan.

Because various equipment is more advanced and Liu Yijiu's firepower is the priority, this has greater logistical requirements.

"The transportation capacity of Zhi-91 is indeed not good, fortunately their strategic goals are about to be achieved. Otherwise, after so many years of preparation, they would not be able to withstand the tossing. However, it is necessary to improve the logistics support capacity. If there is a train, the support capacity will be much stronger..." Liu Yijiu also knew that this was nonsense.

Not to mention the country, the whole world, in the 21st century, not only must the construction of the army be strengthened, but more importantly, the ability to strengthen logistics support.

The more advanced the weapons and equipment, the faster the consumption will be.

Automatic rifles and artillery make the firepower more dense and the ammunition consumes much faster than the original one.

"Just because logistics support cannot keep up, many soldiers cannot be treated in time." Li Yunlong sighed. Many of those soldiers were retired Chinese soldiers.
