Therefore, the battle ended very quickly, so quickly that even the commander of the fifth battalion was surprised. The two special operations companies that had obviously beaten him half to death, just led by Lin Yi, solved the battle with one charge. This gap
It's not that big.
Even in such a comparison, doesn't it mean that my entire battalion cannot even catch up with Lin Yi's two companies?
In fact, this comparison is meaningless. In the situation of special operations, the firepower company of the fifth battalion is completely useless. Moreover, with the infiltration of special forces, heavy firepower and logistics and some battalion detachments were also destroyed.
This resulted in a sexual blow. The fifth battalion might have been crippled without even exerting half of its strength. This was unfair.
Lin Yi's two mechanized infantry companies are designed to restrain quick reaction forces such as special operations companies. As long as they are commanded properly, the effect will be exceptionally good.
Does that mean we can say that the fifth battalion commander is not bad?
This is completely unacceptable. As a leader of a grassroots organization, his battalion was beaten by two special operations companies and a special detachment. This in itself shows that he is not very good as a battalion commander.
Special operations companies are powerful. They are also made up of people. It’s just that the quality of their individual soldiers is higher. You have seven or eight companies in a battalion, with three times the strength of the enemy, and they can still be beaten by the nose.
This can be said to be the incompetence of one general and the exhaustion of the three armies.
The battle losses were quickly calculated. The fifth battalion lost more than 30 people. The two mechanized infantry companies led by Lin Yi suffered seven casualties. In total, all personnel of the fifth special operations company and more than 40 personnel of the sixth special operations company were wiped out.
There are three special forces. It is estimated that the sixth special operations company currently only has one platoon, and the special forces detachment has at most two squads left.
This battle was the battle in which the fifth battalion suffered the least losses and destroyed the most enemies so far. After receiving the battle damage report, the commander of the fifth battalion even took the initiative to go to Lin Yi's command vehicle to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, Assistant Lin. If you hadn't rescued us in time, our Fifth Battalion would have been doomed."
Lin Jian saw the happy look in the eyes of the fifth battalion commander, and his frown did not relax, "Fifth battalion commander, don't you think something is wrong? Why didn't the special forces unit sneak attack you when the troops were empty? They still have at least two squads.
of military strength."
The commander of the fifth battalion looked at his dilapidated camp and said awkwardly: "I'm not afraid of making fun of you. We are all out this time. There is no logistical equipment in the camp. Even if the special forces want to attack my camp, they can't be found at all."
Attackable target."
As soon as these words came out, three black lines suddenly appeared in Lin Yi's head. He had thought that the fifth battalion would be very poor, but he did not expect that it would be so poor. In a war, all troops would be dispatched, and even the base would be empty.
.
But this doesn't make sense. It's impossible for the special forces to watch two companies being beaten and remain indifferent. The only explanation is that they went to do other things, which prevented them from returning reinforcements in time.
But what is it that makes them choose to leave despite knowing that they may be attacked?
Just when Lin Yi was wondering, the sound of artillery fire suddenly came from the direction of the Sixth Battalion. The dazzling fireworks directly stunned Lin Yi, "What kind of weapon can cause such huge fireworks?"
Seeing such dazzling fireworks, the commander of the fifth battalion did not recover for a long time, and then whispered: "An explosion with such a large yield can be seen clearly by us ten kilometers away. Could it be that the ammunition depot exploded?"
"
The ammunition depot is the absolute core of an army, and its defense level is even higher than that of the headquarters. After the headquarters was beheaded, at least each company can still fight on its own, but once the ammunition depot is destroyed, it will be a lamb to be slaughtered.
An individual soldier can only carry one hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition. Now that automated weapons are common, one hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition can only last a few hours of fighting. No matter how much you save, it will be difficult to last long.
This is not like running out of food. Whether you are eating grass roots or chewing leaves, you can persist for a few days no matter what. But once you run out of ammunition, even if you want to see red with a bayonet, others will not give you this opportunity.
When Lin Yi heard this, he immediately understood what the special forces were doing. "There are places like ammunition depots at the battalion headquarters and in each company. They can blow up so many ammunition depots at the same time. I think all the special forces who surrounded and suppressed your battalion must have gone there."
The Sixth Battalion is weaker than your battalion. Now even the ammunition depot has been bombed, and I am afraid they will be forced to withdraw. Then, your battalion will become the main target of the special forces."
The commander of the fifth battalion felt nervous. He did not expect that with the support of the third battalion, he finally killed most of the special operations company personnel, but then he would have to face the direct attack of at least two special operations companies and two special forces detachments.
attack.
Under this kind of encirclement and suppression, it was impossible for the fifth battalion to escape. The commander of the fifth battalion looked at Lin Yi nervously. All his hopes now were on Lin Yi. Although he knew that Lin Yi had helped him a lot, but
He still hoped that Lin Yi could save his life.
Lin Jing saw the eyes of the fifth battalion commander asking for help, but his eyes were firm. He had always believed that the truth of lip death and tooth cold was correct, and these were his comrades, so there was no reason to refuse to save them.
"Commander of the Fifth Battalion, don't worry. We are here to help. Since the Sixth Battalion is suffering from a catastrophe now, we naturally cannot sit idly by and do nothing. Instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative. I suggest that my two companies and you
All personnel of the fifth battalion immediately rush to the sixth battalion to help the sixth battalion eliminate as many enemies as possible. This will be beneficial to both your department and ours."
After hearing Lin Yi's plan, the fifth battalion commander obviously couldn't believe it, "But Assistant Lin, now we are exhausted and need a rest."
Lin Yi looked at the fifth battalion commander seriously, "If we don't take advantage of the excitement of the soldiers after winning the victory, we won't have such a good opportunity next time. You are sleepy and you are tired, and they are even sleepier and tired.
The current ammunition depot of the Sixth Battalion has been bombed, and they still have a lot of key personnel. The local fighting will definitely not stop. If we don't go now, once the Sixth Battalion is wiped out, it will be your turn next."
The fifth battalion commander did not speak, but looked out the window. The soldiers had obviously changed from being decadent because of a victory in the battle. Although they were very tired, they could not conceal the joy between their brows.
The Fifth Battalion was nourished by this victory. Without this victory, the soldiers would have been in a low mood, without even having to fight, and their combat effectiveness would have been lost.
It can no longer be like this. The fifth battalion can no longer be enveloped in low mood. The commander of the fifth battalion then made up his mind, "Assistant Lin, I will leave all my troops to you. You will take command. If something goes wrong, I will be responsible."
Although the fifth battalion commander has been calling himself Assistant Lin, his identity is only the deputy battalion commander. The fifth battalion commander is willing to hand over the command of a battalion to himself, which is a considerable responsibility.
