Two Hundred and Ninety-Nine Turtles

The production of new aircraft is still far from water, and it cannot quench the thirst of the near future. What Ailan Hill is facing now is a demon army, and it is a direct attack from the main force.

Although, Chris could abandon Ferry City and use nuclear weapons to attack after the demon troops landed - but Ferry City is different from other places. This is the traditional core area of ​​Alan Hill.

Destroying this place is not only unacceptable to Chris, but also to most of the top executives of Alan Hill. In the eyes of everyone, it is one thing if you try your best to be defeated, and it is another thing to give up Ferry City voluntarily.

"Let the 15th Army set up a defense line near Ferry City as soon as possible. I heard that today, the flood water there has almost receded?" Chris asked a general sitting in front of him.

The general nodded and replied: "Yes, there is still silt on the city streets, but overall, there is no problem there."

"However, the flood in Ferry City has just receded, and it is basically impossible to establish a defensive position on the mud and beach..." Chris remembered this and asked again.

"Yes, the 15th Army was ordered to rely on the city to build defensive positions, but there are not many terrains they can use." The general lowered his head and continued to answer.

The actual situation is indeed that there is no good solution. A soldier of the 15th Army wiped the sweat from his forehead, propped up the brand new QGF Kevlar helmet on top of his head with his hands, and frowned and looked at the viciousness above his head. of the sun.

"Damn the weather!" Depressed, he shoveled the sea sand from the street into the sandbag with a shovel, and then looked at the seawater seeping out around the sandbag.

The flood receded from Ferry City, but it couldn't take away everything it brought. Fish carcasses can still be found in some houses, and on several streets there are ships that capsize and wreck, stuck between buildings.

There was sea sand everywhere, and the troops arriving later had to fill the sea sand with sandbags, then transport it to the designated location and build it into a fortification.

"Isn't that right... This place has been flooded by the floods, and it is impossible to build fortifications. We can only rely on the building block to lay out the defense line..." Beside him, another soldier also complained.

Their weapon, the AK-47 rifle that has just been distributed, is a new type of weapon that has just been equipped with the troops. Only the 15th and 16th armies are equipped with this weapon.

With the development of the war, the executives of Alan Hill finally admitted that their already terrible production capacity began to tighten slightly.

then,

They finally gave up their insistence, discontinued the Mauser 98K and STG-44 assault rifles, and installed the AK-47 automatic rifles - of course, the mass-produced AKM rifles in Earth civilization are actually Reese named it the AK-47.

This weapon is easy to produce and inexpensive, more reliable than the slightly more expensive STG-44, and more suitable for large armed forces.

In terms of infantry weapons, Chris, who has all the technological civilizations of the earth, once again had to admit that he made a serious mistake in the choice of weapons.

Before, he was more optimistic about the M4 automatic rifle with high precision, high accessories and more powerful combat power. But reality hit him in the face again cruelly... Today's production accuracy can't keep up with demand, M4 rifles can only be equipped with a small amount of troops, and large-scale replacements cannot be completed.

The Alan Hill Infantry, who has been unable to change to more advanced weapons and equipment, can only fight with Mauser 98K rifles that are obviously outdated. What's even more ridiculous is that the war has been going on for almost 9 months, and half of the soldiers of Ailan Hill are holding Mauser rifles.

This is simply an irony to Chris. Not long ago, His Majesty the Emperor finally put down his face for the second time and ordered the factory to start producing AK-47 assault rifles for the new army formed later.

He also issued an order to change the caliber of the MG-42 machine gun to 7.62 mm, which can be regarded as maintaining the supply of logistical weapons and ammunition to a certain extent.

However, the entire dressing process still cannot cover the entire army immediately, and can only be eliminated a little bit to clear the inventory.

As a result, an interesting phenomenon appeared. One-third of the infantry of the main 1st and 2nd armies used the old-fashioned Mauser 98K and STG assault rifles, while the newly formed 15th and 16th armies , but has already installed the AK-47 assault rifle on a large scale.

It is not only rifle weapons that have been replaced, but also other weapons and equipment of the army. For example, the 15th Army has been reinforced by the missile force directly under its command because its defense area is close to key defenses.

A whole regiment of Scud missiles, as well as two brigades of air defense missile mobile units, plus the supplement of individual air defense missiles, the air defense force of the entire 15th Army is very powerful.

While the soldiers were clearing the gravel from the street, a truck with wet wheels passed them.

The back compartment of the truck seemed to transport seafood, and turbid seawater flowed out from the gap. The carriage was full of sandbags filled with sea sand, ready to be transported to the defense line outside the city to reinforce the position.

There were also two soldiers leaning on shovels on the truck, casually buckled their helmets, and opened their chests in military uniforms, exposing their sweaty chests.

The commander-in-chief of the 15th Army was an old general, a veteran of the Arland Empire, who later surrendered to Alan Hill along with the Arland area, and has served in the military to this day.

If you look at the resume, this old general can be regarded as quite satisfactory, mature and prudent, and it can be regarded as raising the average age of the senior generals of Ailan Hill.

Otherwise, the Empire of Ireland would soon become a kindergarten in the eyes of other empires: the Minister of Defense, Duke Kastner, was 44 years old, the Army Commander was 36 years old, the Air Force Commander was 30 years old, and the Navy Commander was 42 years old...

The commander of the 1st Army was 27 years old, the commander of the 2nd army was 30 years old, the commander of the 3rd army was 48 years old, the commander of the 4th army was 43 years old, the commander of the 5th army was 25 years old, the commander of the 6th army was 39 years old, the commander of the 7th army was 50 years old, and the commander of the 7th army was 50 years old. The commander of the 9th Army Group is 23 years old (still a woman)...

Now, at the age of 62, the old general of the 15th Army, Mediyas, finally has a decent commander of his age.

The old general is still sturdy and looks in good spirits, and because he is from an old nobleman, he still wears a long sword on the new military uniform, which is regarded as an alternative among all generals.

He was standing on the battery of Ferry City at this moment, discussing the defensive arrangement with the commander of the battery and the commander of the 15th Air Force who supported him.

"The front we want to defend is actually not too wide. The beach defense line is the most vulnerable area. I decided to put the tank division in this position to prevent the opponent from breaking through from the flank." Medeas pointed to the map with a rigid face. There was no sad expression on it.

He was holding the gorgeous saber around his waist, and his anachronistic appearance looked rather comical, but the old general still had two brushes, because he was a rare stable commander under Chris.

Those young generals in their 30s are all good players in offensive operations. Modler and Wilkes are also commanders with a balanced offensive and defensive, but they are not as stable as Medeas.

This old man is a turtle at all. When he was in the Arlant Empire, he was known as the "three no-fights" - so he opened his mouth and began to allocate his troops, with a posture of standing still.

His nickname means that he never fights the enemy in three situations: he never fights until his troops outnumber his opponents; he never fights until his troops are ready, and he never fully understands his opponent's intentions. Never fought before - so he's fought all his life and never lost...

In other words, this old man only fights against the wind. If he is weak, he will immediately retreat and defend himself. There are no exceptions to being cautious, so he has never lost in his life.

After he took over the 15th Army, he imprinted his character on the unit: wherever the Army goes, the first thing to do is to dig a line of defense, and it is a large and deep line of defense. General array.

The commanders of the entire army are familiar with the motto of the commander of the army group: as long as the troops stop, they must start digging trenches.

Of course, five years ago, this old man's slogan was not like this. Five years ago, he said: "As long as the troops stop, we will build a fort..." Now the slogan has kept pace with the times. The sword has not kept pace with the times.

"The news that the reconnaissance plane we sent out has brought back, the devil's naval battleship, a few have appeared near the open sea..." The commander of the 15th Air Force Air Force introduced.

Large long-range reconnaissance planes were intercepted during reconnaissance, and the effect was not very obvious. However, fighter jets can also conduct reconnaissance, but the scope is limited. The advantage of using fighter reconnaissance is that it is faster and safer, but the disadvantage is that the reconnaissance distance is relatively reduced.

Now that the enemy has reached the door, the short detection distance is no longer a problem, so the air force has also begun to dispatch frequently to investigate the situation in the nearby waters.

Everyone knows the fact that the demon fleet has dispersed and killed Ferry City. So after hearing the demon navy appearing offshore, no one was too surprised.

"The area that the battery can cover is relatively safe... However, the enemy's landing troops." The commander of the battery pointed to the beach that could be overlooked and said to General Medias.

"The counterattack is a matter for the reserve team. My requirement is that under the attack of the enemy, as long as my first-line positions are not lost, the enemy will not be able to stand on the coastline!" General Medeas pointed to the map confidently. said: "The problem now is that this line of defense still needs time to deploy!"

"Unfortunately, Your Excellency General... What we lack now is time." The battery commander shrugged and complained.
