Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    But the progress of the battle was not satisfactory.  Although the rebels opened the minefield passage, the troops were suppressed at the forefront of the Orumi federal army's outer positions.

    At dawn, the weather was gloomy and hot, with no wind.  Iron Hammer personally led two regiments of about 4,000 rebels to launch a fierce attack on the main defenders of Orumi City.  But it was not until around 10 a.m. that the attack was declared complete by the soldiers.  Commander Iron Hammer was injured and the battlefield situation reached a stalemate.

    At the same time, the Parson Corps, the strongest reinforcement of the Orumi Federal Army, has defeated many interceptions by the rebel troops and rushed towards Orumi City. Most of the rebel positions that tried to block them were broken through.

    It all seemed to happen too fast, and Lin Rui and others were not fully prepared.  As for the Orumi federal army, the rebel army bypassed Paramore and directly attacked Orumi City, which confused most senior officers.

    Originally, he was more inclined to think that this was probably a little trick played by the rebels - sending small groups of troops to these places to light a few fires and conduct a feint attack. The purpose was nothing more than to distract attention from Paramore.  Therefore, the Orumi federal army is still fully focused on the Paramore area, considering how to reverse the unfavorable situation on the Paramore front line.

    To everyone¡¯s surprise, these rebels actually headed straight towards the city of Orumi; and according to intelligence reports, it was this main force of the rebels that defeated the 19th Battalion and other units.  The officers of the High Command were silent for a while.  They were simply bewildered.

    ??Obviously, the actions of these rebels were equivalent to stabbing them in the back, catching the Orumi federal army by surprise.  It wasn't until the minefields in the outer positions were breached that the Orumi Federation's headquarters finally realized that the rebel army's main attack direction was not in Paramore-Orumi.

    Instead, they directly hit the city of Orumi.  But this seems illogical.  If the rebel army captured Paramore, it would make more sense logically to take advantage of the situation and attack Orumi City.

    " Otherwise, even if they bypass Paramore, as long as Paramore is still under the control of the Orumi Federation, they can cut off the rebel army's retreat at any time.  How can we fight this battle?

    The offensive route chosen by the main force of the rebel army is by no means the safest tactically. The terrain there is complex, which is a taboo for the use of troops, and it is a static battle corridor.  Of course, the safest place is often the most dangerous, just as the most dangerous place is often the safest. It is also a key point, and the commanders of the Orumi Federation know it very well.

    But they believed that the rebels did not dare to take this risk easily, so they had only deployed a small number of troops as a precaution.  This forms a crack in the middle of the defense line, which is also a gap for defensive deployment.  However, the rebels took advantage of this loophole!  If they didn't know the terrain here well, they wouldn't dare to take this risk

    General Lester, the military boss of the Orumi Federation, and his officers had a long discussion at the headquarters.

    General Lester held a pen in one hand and put his other hand in the waist of his trousers, pacing for a while in front of the large map of the headquarters.  He seemed to have finally made up his mind.  "Let Isaiah retreat and return to defend the Orumi Capital District."

    His current consideration is to reluctantly abandon Paramore for the time being, regroup his forces, and set up defenses along the southeastern line of Orumi City, with the focus on the east.

    After discussing with the chief of staff and other officers, the Orumi federal army began emergency deployment to withdraw troops from Paramore. The specific situation is: withdraw the Isaiah troops in Paramore to southern Orumi and take them in.  The previously defeated 19th Battalion and other remnants withdrew to the city of Orumi to guard the south side of Orumi.

    Companies and battalions of the 35th Regiment and the 21st Regiment in the two surrounding cities turned towards Orumi to guard the two wings; the main force of the capital garrison in Orumi and the armed police jointly guarded the east of the city; emergency new  The 2nd and 3rd reserve regiments were formed to maintain law and order in the city.

    One of the most prominent aspects of this measure is that the Orumi Federal Army completely abandoned Paramore.  Now, for the sake of Orumi City, they no longer care about Paramore.

    Although guarding Paramore is beneficial in long-term operations.  But judging from the current situation, the rebels have also given up on Paramore.  They tried to concentrate heavy troops and capture Orumi, or at least occupy part of the city, before the Parson Corps rushed to rescue Orumi City.

    When Lin Rui learned about the movement of the Orumi federal forces, he immediately realized that his tactical intentions might have been exposed.  The enemy is readjusting their defenses.

    If we fail to capture Orumi before the arrival of the enemy's Parson Corps, I am afraid it will lead to the first defeat of the rebel army.  Lin Rui understood the nature of this rebel army better than anyone else.

    These rebel soldiers are more than fanatical, but not resolute.  They have goals, ideals, and are ready to fight for their ideals.  But they were not prepared,Once such passion and ideals go to the battlefield, they will soon be defeated by the cruel reality of the battlefield.

    In short, the characteristic of this team is that when it wins, it is full of momentum, but when it loses, it is completely defeated.  Once dragged into a cruel tug-of-war by the enemy, our side faced a difficult situation, and enemy reinforcements arrived.  So how much fighting power do these rebel soldiers still have?

    This battle must be won quickly!  Lin Rui turned his head and said, "When will the reinforcements from the Orumi Federal Road arrive?"

    "According to the report of our reconnaissance force, there is still about a day." Actuary Masakishi replied.

    "Can we create any more obstacles for them?" Lin Rui turned around and asked.  "Even if it delays them for one more day."

    "The reconnaissance team had a similar suggestion before. Destroy the highway bridge at this location on Highway 4. It can probably delay them for a day." Actuary Masakishi replied.

    "But what's the point? Even if we have one more day, we may not be able to capture the enemy's position. The defenses around Orumi are very strong. Without air superiority and heavy artillery, it will be difficult to threaten their defensive positions."  Hammer walked in from outside.

    He looked very sad and had a bandage on his shoulder.  This was the consequence of his insistence on personally commanding the last battle.

    "Has the wound been treated?" Lin Rui asked.

    "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine." Tie Shui shook his head, dragged a chair and sat down.

    "You'd better be careful. If you get infected and die, who should we ask to collect the money?" Lin Rui shook his head and said, "You came just in time. Let's put it this way, according to normal conditions now, we can't catch up with the enemy's reinforcements.  Before arriving, attack Orumi City.

    So, I have a risky plan.  It's a big risk, but worth trying.  "

    ¡°What¡¯s the price of risk?¡± Tie Hammer looked at him and asked.

    "If we fail, we will be doomed. But if we don't try, we will also be doomed. It will just delay for a few more days." Lin Rui looked at him and said.
