Chapter 254 Refusal to Obey Orders

Once the 1st Brigade of the Red Police Corps with 5,000 troops is put into the battle in Samarra, Cai Ruichen plans to replenish the 1st Brigade with a fully organized battalion-level combat force every week.

At present, according to the speed at which regular troops are recruited by the base, a battalion can be formed in just over three days. If the recruiting work does not stop, two battalions can be recruited in one week.

But the wasteland world must also start to expand its troops, so the troops recruited this week will be divided equally between the two worlds.

Adding one battalion a week, plus the 3,000 troops currently in direct combat, is enough to deal with the armed forces of the Islamic State in Samarra.

Of course, this arrangement is also very flexible. If the Islamic State begins to increase its troops in Samarra on a large scale, Cai Ruichen will also make rapid adjustments accordingly.

At present, the Islamic State's combat troops in Samarra are actually only tens of thousands.

There are still a large number of troops in the rear that have not been used. On the other hand, the government army has invested nearly 50,000 troops, and tens of thousands of casualties have been lost in a month. It is simply a meat grinder in the modern warfare environment.

According to the plan of logistics support and reserve force structure, Cai Ruichen even plans to use the Type 99 main battle tank if necessary.

As for the troubles, nothing is more important than the task.

However, some people are very dissatisfied with the behavior of the first brigade of the Red Police Corps.

In the headquarters of the Iraqi Army's Third Corps on the outskirts of Samarra, Iraqi Lieutenant General Mutal, when he heard that Marin Town sent troops, he didn't feel anything.

However, as the troops in Marin Town swaggered to build a camp next to the refugee camp, and did not notify the Iraqi government of the actions of the army, there was no reason for Mutal not to be annoyed.

"What are they going to do? Are they going to fight independently? Or they don't know, and they came to Samarra just to cooperate with government forces?"

Several questions in succession, coupled with Mutal's angry appearance, made the faces of all the staff in the headquarters look ugly.

Although none of them have systematic professional military studies, they at least understand. Command troops with some basic common sense.

If the troops in Marin Town do not obey the command. That does not mean that the three parties are fighting in Samarra.

The first problem is that there is no distinction between the enemy and the enemy. Without a coordinated commander, it is naturally difficult to distinguish the relationship between the enemy and the enemy on the same battlefield.

And it was originally a war between the two sides, and then a third party suddenly came. And this third party is still the same target as one of the parties. But there was no prior notice, and accidental injury is absolutely inevitable.

Not to mention modern warfare. Most of the time, the enemy can hardly be seen. Who knows who is on the other side after a burst of artillery fire.

As for the intelligence about Marin Town's armed forces participating in the war, Mutal has received a notification from the Ministry of Defense.

But who knows those people. When he came, he didn't even say a word.

Anyway, fight together. Someone has to be in command. As lieutenant-general of the Third Army, Mutal controls all government military agencies on the Samarra battlefield.

Marin Town dispatched troops, and he was naturally in command. He was looking forward to the addition of an army of several thousand people.

result. Any commander would be annoyed.

"League commander, I will go to their camp to reorganize immediately. Try to be tomorrow. They can be sent directly to the battlefield." A major general came out and pleaded with Mutal.

"Go ahead and tell them to obey orders." Mutal nodded angrily. He has already decided to send this army to the train station tomorrow as the vanguard of attacking the train station. He wants those guys to try it. Islamic State guns.

However, what he didn't expect was that half an hour later, the major general came back in despair.

"Legion Commander, they are so presumptuous. The guards in Marin Town didn't even let me approach the camp, and even fired warning shots." As soon as he returned to the commander, the major general complained directly.

"Asshole, didn't you reveal your identity?" Mutal became even more angry when he heard that.

The major general said with a sad face: "I reported it, but they didn't let me approach at all on the grounds of military secrets."

"Then you didn't tell them the purpose of your visit?" Mutal flicked a short whip angrily, and whipped it on the table with a crisp sound.

"I said it, but the guards in Marin Town replied to me that they are under the command of the immediate commander in battle, and they will not accidentally injure friendly troops." The major general said here, and looked at Mutal with some trepidation. Seeing his anger He immediately lowered his head behind his eyes.

He didn't add fuel to these answers, because the other party's reactions didn't require him to embellish them, they were enough to make everyone angry.

Sure enough, for this contempt, everyone's inner anger was mobilized.

"They also said that their arrival was on the order of the Ministry of Defense, but the Ministry of Defense did not order them to come under our command."

After the major general paused, he suggested: "How about we send a message to the Ministry of National Defense and let them issue orders directly. We can't be soft on these clan armed forces."

"Hmph!" Mutal snorted coldly when he heard the major general's words, but he didn't have an attack. Instead, he considered the pros and cons, then nodded and said, "Send a message to the Ministry of Defense."

The reply from the Iraqi Ministry of National Defense came quickly, but when Mutal saw the above content, he was a little strange, but he didn’t feel angry, and soon he had a bit of understanding. After putting away the content of the reply , Then he said to everyone: "Don't care about them. Even if it is an accidental injury, we are not responsible."

After hearing these words, everyone's expressions became strange. They didn't expect that the Ministry of National Defense actually meant this.

In their view, this is simply an incredible thing. What if they are seriously accidentally injured? After all, anything can happen on the battlefield, not to mention friendly troops, even troops belonging to the same organization, there will always be accidental injuries.

During the Gulf War that year, the U.S. Air Force itself dropped bombs on its ground troops several times.

Not to mention in a complex urban warfare like Samarra, if the artillery fires, how will they notify the other side?

However, what they didn't know was that behind the order in Mutal's hand, there was a paragraph that he didn't say.

However, this is not important to the Red Police Corps, because the base can monitor their every move.

As for handing over the actions of the troops to the command of the Iraqi government forces, in Cai Ruichen's view, that is simply the murder of soldiers.

Therefore, even if there is a real possibility of accidental injury, he will not hand over the troops to the command of the Iraqi government.

The participation of the Red Police Corps, for the Islamic State armed forces, has begun a nightmare. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
