1215 I Am Among You

"Do you think... they can withstand the first round of attacks?"

Ryan held his gun and sat behind the defense line. At this time, the defenses were still being built. The Federal Army recruited many workers to build those defenses.

Perhaps considering that this is the Army's first international battle, the Ministry of National Defense pays special attention to this battle and has allocated some funds to provide more assistance to the Army.

The people at Blackstone Security currently have no specific work to do. They have demarcated an area, built fortifications, and then watched the Army toss around there.

A soldier who was also in charge of patrolling the guards replied with a smile, "Who knows, I think it's a bit difficult, so we must be ready to fight at any time."

Their confrontation with the warlords during Marillo made them understand that real war requires bloodshed, especially ground wars.

The battlefield is like a huge meat grinder. Both sides continue to throw soldiers into it and turn them into corpses.

Whichever side cannot handle the pressure first will lose the battle.

Advanced weapons and equipment cannot actually fully function in complex environments, just like bombers. When the battle situation in the city is stalemate, bombers can not only bomb the enemy's rear to help open up the situation.

They cannot directly help the frontline soldiers eliminate the opponent's frontline enemies, and can only play a supporting role.

Because no one knows whether those bombs will fall on the heads of their own people. Maybe the wind in the air suddenly becomes stronger, and the bombs will be deflected by tens of meters or even hundreds of meters.

These distances are too easy to achieve and no one dares to risk them.

In fact, the current situation is the same. Aircraft reconnaissance can only serve as an early warning and warning. Once the two sides engage in close combat, the aircraft can only bomb the opponent's rear.

The pressure on the front line will increase dramatically because the enemy's rear route is cut off. They have already felt this on Marillo's side.

After every plane bombing, a fierce firefight would break out on the front line, and the warlords' militants would attack them frantically until the bombing was over.

Some people call these desperate counterattacks, frantic attacks in which the living space is reduced and the fear has to be temporarily forgotten.

Ryan sighed, "Actually, it is very irresponsible for the Ministry of Defense to send them to the front line. Although I have been a soldier, I know that some things are difficult to imagine if you have not experienced them."

This is Ryan's truest emotion. If he had not experienced that, he would never know that the word "enemy" includes those old people, women and even children. No one is innocent behind this word.

It is also clearer that target shooting and shooting are two completely different experiences, and there will be greater pressure in my heart.

The ones most prone to emotional breakdown on the battlefield are not the soldiers charging on the front line, but the machine gunners.

The finger they use to pull the trigger often cramps to death under high tension, and then they watch the enemies fall one after another as if they were swung by an invisible scythe.

The stress and psychological disorders caused by killing a large number of similar people will become their mental illness. The psychological counselors and chaplains in the army will rarely use them to comfort ordinary soldiers.

When group emotions break out, only a very small number of people will be afraid of war and hide on the front lines. Most people will not be afraid of death when group emotions break out.

Those who really need coaching are the machine gunners who kill large numbers of enemies.

No one told them these things in military schools or in the army, let alone taught them.

Even the massacre of the natives happened several generations ago, and the soldiers of this generation don't look like soldiers at all.

Ryan quickly came up with another idea, "If you were a Pengeo man and you knew that we had built such complete defenses here, would you still launch an attack from here?"

Another person laughed loudly, "Every time I go to my girlfriend's house, I climb up the eaves on the second floor because her father is sitting in the living room with a gun. I never confront that person head-on. Be reasonable, and people with guns should be reasonable.”

Ryan nodded in agreement, and then looked back, "I think so. Pengeo's army is said to be very elite. They have conquered many countries through the army. I don't believe they will hit each other head on..."

In fact, this issue has also begun to be discussed at the command level of Blackstone Security. The Federals have built perfect fortifications, bunkers, forts, and thick barriers on the beach. Will the Pengeo people attack like fools?

Unless they didn't know, but how could they not know?

The plane in the sky flew over everyone's head again. Ryan looked up and frowned, "There seems to be something painted on the wings of that plane..."

The other person also raised his head. He squinted for a while, then shrugged indifferently, "Indeed, but it's not very clear. I heard that those who fly airplanes like to draw something on the fuselage after completing a mission. .”

"This way when others see their aircraft, they will know how many missions they have carried out. It is said that this was proposed by the boss himself."

"The treatment of those pilots is really good, and the subsidy is several times that of ours."

"Just fly around in the sky..."

Ryan added, "The danger is several times greater than ours. We still have a chance to survive if we are shot. But if they are shot, they are dead!"

Yes, it's not like they haven't seen the scene of a plane crashing down. It's basically impossible for anyone to survive and die immediately.

The two people did not take the plane in the sky with special paint under the wings seriously. Even the people on duty in the air did not notice the plane.

At this time, the pilot of the plane quickly used an aerial camera to quickly take pictures of specific defenses on the ground.

It is not a complicated task to install a small component like a camera on an aircraft. It is a bit difficult to make the camera image during fast movement, but it cannot stop the research power of a country.

In addition, the bombers exported by Blackstone Aviation all belong to the "Blackstone series". They are very similar in appearance, so no one will doubt that the Penteo plane will sneak into the reconnaissance team.

Fighters are still being researched and kept secret. The Qi-II bombers are still used as reconnaissance aircraft. After all, bombers have a much larger flight radius than fighter jets and can go farther.

After Pengeo's pilot made two circles in the air, he took a second shot of some slightly less favorable angles and lowered his altitude.

What was somewhat surprising was that the troops on the ground even thought it was the pilots greeting them. Some even took off their hats and waved at the pilots, who also waved to them.

After watching the pilots raise their altitude again and leave, some people lamented how hard it was for these pilots...

More than an hour later, the developed photos were sent to the Pengeo outpost, and then the entire federal defenses were exposed to their eyes without any flaws.

"There is no error in our judgment. They seem to have determined that we will definitely launch an attack from the beach. We need to strengthen their confidence."

The commander put forward an idea, "Gather the troops and get some ships. We will let the enemy 'discover' our battle plan."

"Since they plan to stop us on the beach, we will attack from the beach."

"In addition, contact the surrounding troops and quickly seize the artillery positions after assembly. We will cooperate here."

For the Army, the most terrifying thing is the artillery. If the Federals' artillery positions can be destroyed, the forts and bunkers they built cannot be relied upon to repel the Penteo troops.

They have various ways to deal with the "turtle tactics". This is not the first force to try to use fortifications to fight their front, and of course it will definitely not be the last.

Soon the Pengeos began to gather troops on the beach and put some supplies on the boats. It seemed that they planned to launch an attack along the river.

The aircraft conducting aerial reconnaissance recorded everything truthfully, and a little later, the federal military also obtained the reconnaissance information they wanted.

"There is no error in our judgment. They plan to attack from the beach, and aerial reconnaissance has discovered their artillery, which is being loaded onto ships."

"Continue to increase the speed of reconnaissance, pay special attention to their artillery, and let the pilots fly with bombs on."

"Once their artillery is discovered, bomb their ammunition immediately..."

The major general stood in front of the command table and looked at these officers, "Everyone, this battle is related to the Army's status in the federal military system. It can only win, not lose!"

"We not only want to win, but we also want to win big, win beautifully, and annihilate all the Pengeo people!"

The navy has set an example, and the army cannot lag behind. The commander must use a total annihilation to establish the army's position in the federal military system!

Then all the troops took action, and all the reconnaissance planes in the temporary airport began to load bombs. This was also a sign before the bombing.

Until this moment, many people have remained optimistic about this war, because they have the most advanced military equipment and the best tactical command, and they cannot lose!

When bombers bring death to these people, they will surely regret targeting the Union Army!

Judging from the map, the distance between the two sides may be only a few palms away, but there are still a few days before the actual battle.

On the morning of early September, several soldiers walked out of the woods. They were wearing federal uniforms, carrying federal weapons on their backs, and walked towards the base with expressionless faces, just like real federal soldiers!

After several days of infiltration, the four troops had bypassed the defenses near the tidal flats and infiltrated through the dense forest.

They didn't know where they got some federal military uniforms and weapons, and they sneaked into the base simply and directly...
