Chapter 764 Reinforcements

I have a cold, how many days will Rong Soldier rest? It depends on the situation in the past few days, and there will be at least two chapters.

************

"But we must reinforce the Kazbek Peak!" Freko said.

"How many troops do you have there?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Two battalions!" Major General Freco replied: "One German mountain camp and the other Romanian camp!"

Upon hearing this, Colonel Slein and Qin Chuan couldn't help but look at each other. The two battalions fought against the enemy and one division, and one of the two battalions was the Romanian battalion.

"You know..." Freco explained: "We lacked troops, there was only one regiment to defend the entire eastern section. I think the pass is more important, so we have deployed two battalions and one Romanian battalion here!"

Of course, Freco cannot be blamed. Not to mention that there are only so many troops, "a skillful woman cannot cook without rice", Freco has no choice. What's more, according to the theory that attack is greater than defense, the defender always needs more troops, and the attacking side can choose the enemy's weaknesses at will to break through.

In other words, no matter how Freko deploys these forces, it is useless: if the main force is placed at the mountain pass, the Soviet army will attack the Kazbek Peak. If the main force is placed at the Kazbek Peak, the Soviet army will attack the mountain pass with all its strength.

"General!" said Colonel Slein: "The Soviets had a division, and had already captured the main peak of Kazbek, and even occupied a warehouse where we had just transported a few tons of supplies. How many troops do you think you need to reinforce to get up to block them? A regiment?"

Major General Freco replied: "We have a regiment, and it is not a problem for you to reinforce and block a division. You don't even need a regiment to do it!"

Major General Freco was right. Everyone was equipped with STG44 in the First Infantry Regiment. Not to mention the rest, the firepower of a regiment is far greater than that of a division of the Soviet army.

"But we may not be able to do this, General!" Qin Chuan said: "As I said before, the enemy may have blocked the airspace of Kazbek Peak with Seagull fighter jets. If we do this, the First Infantry Regiment will be shot down in the air meaninglessly..."

At this time, the staff officer handed a telegram to Major General Freco.

Major General Freco glanced at it, then frowned and said, "You are right, Major! The Soviets blocked that airspace. In fact, the situation was worse than we thought... The Soviets sent a large number of Jacques 1 and MiG3 fighters to compete with us for air supremacy with real guns!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan and Colonel Slein were stunned. This was rare on the battlefield on the Eastern Front. However, it seemed not surprising, because Baku was very important to the Soviet Union, and it was completely worthwhile to find some things at the bottom of the box to compete with Germany for air supremacy.

"Martin Manstein is urgently transferring more air forces from Krim to the war!" Major General Freco said: "But... I don't think this will work for us, because they will be ready in two days!"

Fighter operations do not require aircraft to fly over and immediately enter the battle. They also require the configuration of ground crew members and the transportation of parts. It is not easy to transfer a large number of fighter jets in two days and prepare for combat.

But the question is... can the two battalions of Kazbek Peak last for two days? Or can the fighter planes be able to make up for the situation after they are ready.

Qin Chuan looked at the map and said, "The Romanian troops are located on the second line of defense!"

"Yes!" Major General Freco replied: "Of course they should be on the second line of defense!"

"It will be easier for us to reinforce Romanian troops!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Yes!" said Colonel Slein: "Let the German soldiers on the front line attract attention!"

"No problem!" Freco agreed immediately: "But as soon as possible, they may not be able to withstand it for long!"

After pausing, Freco asked again: "How many helicopters do you plan to send to reinforce?"

Qin Chuan thought about it and replied: "Six armed helicopters and six transport helicopters!"

"That is, there is only one company?" Major General Freco showed an incredible expression on his face.

Major General Freco also knew that one transport plane could only carry 20 people, and six were 120 people.

"One can't play much of a role!" Major General Freco said: "You must know that they have a division!"

"General!" Qin Chuan said: "The Soviets are likely to be prepared, not to mention that the Soviets have occupied high places..."

Colonel Slain understood this when he heard this.

"Yes!" said Colonel Slein: "If the Soviets occupy high places, they will condescendingly threaten our helicopters, and send the helicopters in one breath... the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Major General Freco thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay! I'll contact the Third Battalion immediately to let them cooperate with you to log in!"

Major General Freco is better at having reinforcements than having no reinforcements.

This time, the landing in Qinchuan did not participate. The troops of the Second Battalion were carried out. The second battalion commander Bazer personally directed and participated in the reinforcements.

The landing went smoothly. The entire battle was first of all, with the German army launching a fierce counterattack against the Soviet Air Force and temporarily gaining air supremacy. At the same time, the German soldiers from the Third Mountain Battalion carried out a counterattack against the Soviet army on the ground.

Then the helicopter group flew to Kazbek.

As soon as the armed helicopter came on the field, they cooperated with the Deshan soldiers on the ground to attack the Soviet army... Machine guns, rocket launchers, etc. smashed bullets and rockets on the Soviet army's head like crazy.

In fact, this was all about attracting the firepower and attention of the Soviet army, and then the transport helicopter was guided by Romanian soldiers to rush to the ground.

The entire battle lost two armed helicopters and two transport helicopters, with 28 casualties... It can also be seen that the Soviet army was prepared for the helicopters, especially the Soviet army was equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns, because two of the armed helicopters were shot down by anti-aircraft machine guns.

"The next reinforcement will be more difficult!" Colonel Slain said.

"Why don't we choose to sprint at night?" asked Major General Freco.

"It's probably even more difficult to sprint at night!" Colonel Slain explained: "First, the sound of spirals will be very obvious, and then the enemy will fire flares, then use anti-aircraft machine guns... and our sprinters cannot even tell where the ground is!"

Colonel Slain was right, especially on steep high grounds. Sometimes, the helicopter leaned forward and backward, and the height of the rope from the ground would be more than ten meters or dozens of meters, and it might even be led into a deep abyss.

"I don't think we should implement reinforcements anymore!" Qin Chuan said.

"Major!" Major General Freko opposed: "Although I know this is dangerous, we cannot let the Soviet Union occupy the Kazbek Peak, because he will directly threaten the rear of Baku!"
