In the cold weapon era, if the casualties of the army reached more than one tenth, morale would be hit.
In the meat grinder of hot weapon war, the army suffered at an alarming rate. For example, in the Battle of the Somme in World War I, the British army lost 60,000 lives in one day, and a large number of front-line troops were wiped out.
In addition to being eliminated by the organic establishment, most military units "lost combat effectiveness" meaning they were withdrawn and reorganized.
From the perspective of modern warfare, if the casualty rate reaches 20%, there is a risk of losing combat effectiveness, and 30% is the recognized casualty rate limit for armies around the world.
Not everyone in the army is fighting on the front line. Logistics and technical arms also occupy the majority of the establishment.
When a combatant is injured, the lightly injured person can take care of himself, but the seriously injured person needs two people to carry him. This will delay the overall combat effectiveness.
30% battle damage means that logistical pressure will affect the overall battle. This is the standard for setting the casualty limit.
But the people sent by Floyd were different. They were nameless and had no identity. Just like the original army on Iwo Jima, they were combatants destined to be abandoned.
The principle that a sad soldier will win was used by Freud in his own men. For this army, there are only two results.
Casper followed Rorschach's line of sight and said: "Confining the enemy to the road, do you want to use air strikes? But the surrounding airspace has been blocked, and there is an anti-aircraft missile battalion around it. Any aircraft will be like
They were swatted to death like flies."
After the explosion, people lurking on both sides of the road took off their infrared stealth suits and other camouflage, and carried individual launchers.
At this time, Casper made an invitation to Rorschach and pointed to the helicopter nearby.
Listening to the sound of gunfire from far and near, Casper stood up, looked at Rorschach and said: "It seems that Mr. Freud's invitation to Mr. Rorschach has arrived."
After all, according to Rorschach's requirements, the goal of the battle is not to annihilate these people at once, but to block them in stages to limit the enemy's space for movement.
The directional attack of the broadsword mines was almost a tickling attack against those heavy combat vehicles. Only light vehicles, such as the Humvee, were able to penetrate the weak defense.
Seeing the bright mines on the road, the soldier ants would never dare to risk their lives to test the desert on both sides of the road.
For combat vehicles, anti-tank mines are an absolute threat. They can not only cause damage to vehicle tires and tracks, turning combat vehicles into fixed targets, but also cause devastating blows to some immature chassis.
But these are not the purpose of the ghost's battle, the dust brought up by the explosion of the broadsword is.
Various armor-piercing weapons that did not require any guidance were immediately launched by the battle-experienced warriors in Call of Duty according to the location in their memory.
However, these soldier ants, who could only survive if they won, reacted quickly and began to fire suppressive fire on both sides of the road.
Almost at the same moment, the broadsword mines that had been designed on both sides of the road were detonated.
"How can this be……"
The convoy is traveling on the road in a serpentine shape. On this inevitable road, the ghost has already laid a dragnet.
Casper said: "According to the inference of the company headquarters, Mr. Rorschach should have two different troops around him. According to what you said, one of them is divided into three groups, with no more than thirty people. And the other
, judging from the last battle, there should be only one combat battalion. I recognize their combat effectiveness, but it does not mean that they are an opponent of the heavy firepower troops sent by Mr. Floyd."
The signal flare launched by Qianxia was seen by everyone, including those soldier ants.
This kind of attack was almost based on blindness, but with the superiority in numbers, some soldiers actually hit the target relying on their combat experience.
They are soldier ants who only exist to fight.
Casper looked at Coco on the side and said to Rorschach: "Give up, Mr. Rorschach. Mr. Floyd is still sincere. After all, he did not send air troops. And you have already lost this game."
.”
In addition to traditional touch (pressure) fuzes, modern anti-tank mine detonations have widely used non-trigger fuzes synthesized by new technologies, infrared fuzes, etc. These fuzes rely on their respective sensitive devices to sense the vibration caused by armored vehicles approaching the mines.
External magnetic field, sound, ground vibration and changes in infrared spectrum are used to detect targets.
When the soldier ants took a clear look at their surroundings, they discovered another big problem.
The broadswords staggered on both sides of the road spit out more than 700 steel balls from each of them.
Several anti-tank mines were clearly placed on the road, as if to remind them that they had entered a minefield.
"No, it only takes one attack to break the combat effectiveness of this army!"
Rorschach stood up, looked at the approaching motorcade in the distance, and said, "This is not necessarily true..."
The sound of automatic machine guns and rapid-fire cannons was heard endlessly, and both sides of the road were cleared in a cross-covering manner.
The artificial sandstorms raised in the hot and dry land of North Africa have become the best way to obscure optical sights and detection radars.
The explosion was like a broom, sweeping away dust onto the road. There was a constant crackling sound, and there were even steel balls meeting in the air, shooting out different sparks.
Ghost had already anticipated the enemy's reaction. Under his order, everyone quickly evacuated their original positions after firing the tubes in their hands.
The metal jet ricocheted inside the vehicle, cooking the flesh and blood, and then took away the life.
A series of precise shots detonated the mines on the road. The convoy began to fire test shots around it as before, and then moved in the direction of Rorschach.
Either die or win.
That red signal flare was the signal for a full-scale attack on Rorschach's combat troops.
"But I have no intention of accepting the date!"
The moving convoy quickly adjusted its status. The machine gunners of the light vehicles hid inside the vehicles, and the combat vehicles activated all defensive measures. Thermal imaging radars and infrared radars were instantly turned on to search for possible enemies.
The soldiers who reacted quickly could only move forward along the road. The 30mm caliber 2A42 machine gun on the Storm-K turret on the head of the BTR-90 Rostock armored vehicle in the front row began to clear the road.
The desert is an excellent hiding place. The climate conditions in North Africa make it a pleasure to bury landmines. The weather will remove all traces of man-made artifacts from the landmines.
This fire suppression continued until the dust cleared, but when the soldier ants searched for traces of the enemy through the observation windows and various equipment, they only found discarded disposable launchers.
Casper wanted to object and say something, but a series of emission sounds started outside the industrial area.
The projectile smoke screen launcher throws the smoke screen all around in an almost covering manner, regardless of direction or location, as if it is covering something, but the formation is too scattered and cannot cover any large targets.
This situation made Casper a little unsure, and he didn't know what Rorschach's plan was.
Then he saw a blue beam of light that instantly penetrated from one end of the road to the other, and on the road were combat vehicles driven by those soldier ants.
