Yang Yi has no choice, and Fang Zhicheng is the same.
Although he was extremely angry at James' stupidity, the barracks had fallen, and Fang Zhicheng could only accept this fact that no one wanted to accept. Now there are only two military camps left. Not only does Yang Yi need Fang Zhicheng's support, Fang Zhicheng also needs Yang Yi's assistance. Compared with James and Huo Huade, at least Fang Zhicheng didn't come to deal with things, but hoped to fight a big victory here and avenge those sacrificed comrades in arms.
After Yang Yi proposed to reorganize the officers and soldiers evacuated from the Eastern and Western military camps to form a new corps to enrich the reserve team, Fang Zhicheng immediately agreed and offered to take charge of this matter. Yang Yi was also very happy and made it clear that the newly-built reserve team first met the defensive deployment of the northern barracks, and even agreed that Fang Zhicheng would arrange officers from the third theater to command the new reserve team.
As for whether officers and soldiers from other theaters are willing to accept Fang Zhicheng's commander in command, it is not a question at all. In Yang Yi's words, now is the time of war, he is the commander-in-chief of the Feng Martian defense operations, and violating his orders is betrayal, and handling according to military law is the death penalty. Besides, James has been killed, and the other two generals of the Eastern Barracks are also controlled by Yang Yi. In order to remove the responsibility for defeat, Huo Huade must not dare to be true to Yang Yi in command. Without the support of senior generals, the officers of the grassroots units will not have the ability to stand on their own. In addition, as long as these soldiers from other theaters have a sense of responsibility and want to leave Feng Martian alive, they will not create conflicts at this time because of who is under the command. To put it bluntly, it doesn't matter who orders you. The key is whether you can defeat powerful enemies, whether you can hold the beacon, whether you can live until the end of the battle, and whether you can return to your family safely. Not to mention that Fang Zhicheng was a lieutenant general in the third theater, and he made a name for himself in the retreat. Even an unknown general, as long as he can lead them to victory, as long as they can give them a little hope, it is much better than dying in this ghost place.
Of course, after discussing with Fang Zhicheng, Yang Yi symbolically solicited the opinions of several generals including Huo Huade.
As he expected, no one objected. Several generals honestly handed over the command and personally ordered their officers to obey the command of the commander-in-chief. It is not that they are willing to delegate power, but that they want to ask Yang Yi, that is, after losing the guarded barracks, Yang Yi can use weak command to dismiss their powers at any time, and even according to the military law during the war, they can not declare to the military department. Discipline them under circumstances. Even if Yang Yi did not have the guts, as long as he said a few more words in the combat report submitted to the military, they would be responsible for the defeat. At that time, even if you can leave Mars alive, you will have no face when you return to your home galaxy.
You know, in the Human Federation, defeated generals will not receive sympathy from anyone.
In the past thousands of years, the human confederation had only generals who died in battle, and no generals who were defeated. To put it simply, people will not question the responsibilities of ordinary soldiers because of the defeat, because the grass-roots officers and soldiers obey the orders of the generals, and the only ones who really bear the responsibility are the generals who command the battle.
Later, Yang Yi asked Fang Zhicheng to send people to pick up the officers and soldiers from the Eastern and Western military camps.
In fact, this is also a good thing for Yang Yi.
The key point is that it will definitely take a lot of effort to rectify these remnants and defeat, and it is not the southern barracks where Yang Yi is, but the northern barracks where Fang Zhicheng is lacking. If these remnants are left behind, Yang Yi will not only need to spend a lot of energy to reorganize them, when the battle begins again, if the Silicon Magic army focuses on attacking the northern barracks, it will still have to send a reserve team to support it. That being the case, it is better to hand these remnant defeated soldiers to Fang Zhicheng, let Fang Zhicheng spend his energy, so as to strengthen the defense of the northern barracks. Even if the reserve team is still available at that time, there is no need to go all out, at least there is no need to use too much reserve team.
It's just that Fang Zhicheng is not a fool.
When Yang Yi asked him to reorganize the defeated soldiers who had been withdrawn, he guessed Yang Yi’s intentions. Knowing that Yang Yi was pushing the boat along the river, he made a request, that is, the northern barracks not only need more troops, but also Long-range firepower that can effectively strike the enemy is required.
Yang Yi couldn't refuse this request made by Fang Zhicheng.
Although different from other theaters, the reinforcements of the third theater brought enough combat materials, but did not bring much heavy equipment, especially the powerful heavy artillery. Among the fifty regiments commanded by Fang Zhicheng, even heavy tanks had fewer than 1,000, which was only one-fifth of the standard establishment. In Fang Zhicheng's words, this is not bad. The other regiments in the third theater don't even have a heavy tank.
Yang Yi was not stingy either. He distributed fifty heavy artillery to Fang Zhicheng and promised to provide one thousand heavy tanks.
In fact, Yang Yi is not generous, but without these heavy weapons, even if Fang Zhicheng goes all out, even if the officers and soldiers of the third theater fight to the end, they may not be able to defend the northern barracks. In addition, the enemy has already captured the eastern and western continents, and discovered the weakness of the human legion, and even knows that the southern continent is the core of the human legion, so when it launches another attack, the enemy is likely to attack the northern continent. If there are not enough heavy weapons, especially heavy artillery and heavy tanks, under the siege of the enemy, the northern barracks will definitely not be able to defend. Obviously, if the northern barracks were captured by the enemy, even if Yang Yi had enough heavy weapons, he would not be able to defend the southern barracks.
On that day, Yang Yi asked Yuyang to send fifty heavy artillery over.
As for the 1,000 tanks promised, it will take a few days before they can be delivered. The main thing is that these tanks have to be drawn from the various corps, and the organization of the corps has to be adjusted. If only the main battle tanks of several legions were transferred to Fang Zhicheng, these legions would inevitably lose their combat effectiveness. More importantly, all the heavy tanks are the main corps, and the corps that Jackson brought as the reserve do not have heavy tanks. Although Yujia promised to provide more equipment and supplies, Feng Martian has been blocked by the Silicon Magic fleet, and even fast transport ships cannot reach it safely. In other words, it is impossible to obtain support from the Yu Family in the short term.
Fortunately, Fang Zhicheng was extremely satisfied with the fifty heavy artillery he received, and he also expressed his understanding of Yang Yi's difficulties.
With Fang Zhicheng's support, strengthening the defensive deployment of the northern barracks is only the first step.
In fact, by this time, Yang Yi has realized that the enemy may not immediately attack the Southern Wind Barracks, at least not. After capturing the Eastern and Western military camps, the enemy will spend some time sweeping, building more camps in the two places, and then sending more legions. Only after making sufficient preparations will the attack be launched again. In this way, when the enemy launches an offensive, it is determined by the progress of the preparations. To put it bluntly, after gaining a foothold, the enemy will definitely adjust its tactics. However, the enemy will not give Yang Yi and them too much time, and when the enemy attacks again, there is no room for conversion.
Obviously, strengthening defense is still a crucial matter, and the degree to which it can be achieved depends on time.
To this end, Yang Yi arranged a special mission for the special reconnaissance brigade and the female warrior guard, namely to travel to the eastern and western continents respectively, to use all opportunities to attack and weaken the enemy, cause trouble to the enemy, and do his best to make the enemy spend more money. More time for pre-war preparations. As for how to fight, Yang Yi did not clearly stipulate, it was decided by Shen Chengwen and Otis according to the actual situation, that is to say, adapt to the circumstances.
For Shen Chengwen, this is not a problem.
Don't forget, the special reconnaissance group is originally the special forces of the third theater. It is best at this kind of irregular combat, and the officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance group have rich practical experience. Besides, Shen Chengwen has always been witty, and he doesn't need Yang Yi to worry about him directing the operations behind enemy lines.
As for Otis, this is clearly a problem.
Although the Female Warrior Guard can also be regarded as a special force of the Star Weavers, both in terms of status and strength, they are above the special reconnaissance team, but compared with the special reconnaissance team, the biggest problem of the female warrior guard is the lack of experience, even if Otis hasn't participated in many battles either. In the past few thousand years, the female warrior guards have never left the planet of God Mother, let alone go to the enemy's rear to perform special missions like human soldiers. In addition, all female warriors, including Otis, lack not only experience, but also tactical ideas. If Otis is allowed to direct the battle, she will choose to fight harder than the enemy, even if she knows that she will eventually be defeated because of outnumbered.
To this end, Yang Yi sent Justin to assist Otis.
Of course, Yang Yi also clearly told Otis that Justin is his spokesperson, the battle is in charge of the Warriors, and Justin decides how to fight.
Although Otis was obviously dissatisfied with this arrangement, Yang Yi had no other way.
If possible, he would personally take the female warrior guard to fight the enemy in the Western Continent. Unfortunately, there are more and more important things that Yang Yi needs to deal with. Besides, Yang Yi is the commander-in-chief, it is impossible to do everything himself, let alone leave the headquarters to fight behind enemy lines.
The more important thing is to strengthen the defense construction of the barracks.
The fall of the Eastern and Western military camps was not only due to command errors, but also directly related to the failure to complete the defense construction of the military camp. Especially in the Western military camps, Huo Huade did not make serious mistakes, and the key reason that led to the fall of the military camp was that the defense construction was not completed.
It can be said that if the defense construction of the military barracks can be completed before the battle begins, then the western military barracks will not be captured by the enemy so quickly. Not to mention Huo Huade, if the enemy is storming the northern barracks, Fang Zhicheng may not be able to command the reinforcements of the third theater to defend the barracks.
In addition, the enemy has already occupied the Eastern and Western military camps, has mastered the defense deployment of the military camps, and knows how to attack the other two military camps. For this reason, adjustments must be made to the defensive deployment, which must be completed as soon as possible, or the consequences will be disastrous.
