Late at night, at 9:47, the Blackwater infiltration force disguised as the Warhammer First Army engaged in a head-on firefight with the enemy forces entrenched at the entrance of the Ta River.
The current troop strength ratio is: 3000:600
The Warhammer Mercenary Group, including the logistics support troops, had about 3,000 people who could fight with guns, and they were in a defensive position, with the advantage of terrain. The Blackwater sneak attack force that infiltrated only had 600 people!
Why are there so few? Is it because it can’t penetrate
Actually, it was not entirely true. Tagu only sent 600 people to attack Tahe. The most fundamental reason was that he was afraid of being exposed. The chariots, horses and artillery of both sides had already faced each other. With modern military reconnaissance equipment, it was very unlikely to mobilize troops on a large scale without being discovered.
Therefore, there must not be too many people, and they must be highly mobile and easy to hide.
Taking all the above reasons into consideration, Tagu only mobilized 600 people to raid Tahe River, and only arranged a group of helicopters and a speedboat team on the periphery to assist in the attack.
This is why the commander of the Warhammer Mercenary Group did not notice any unusual movements from the Blackwater Legion, and even suspected that this group of people were sent by the Ruler Army. Because from their perspective, Tagu had no one in his hands, and the large army did not move at all.
If 5,000 of an army of 18,000 men left at once, even a fool would notice that something was wrong. But if each regiment only dispatched less than a hundred men and assembled secretly in the mountains and forests, the possibility of being exposed would be very low.
No matter how awesome your reconnaissance equipment is, you can't fly into someone's tent and observe them up close, right? !
…
The battle has begun.
The 600 men of the Blackwater Legion quickly wiped out the enemy troops entrenched at the entrance of the Ta River and directly raided the enemy's logistics camp.
In Bana City, inside Bernardo Castle, Tagu looked at the battle map with his hands behind his back, his eyes calm.
"Commander, the assault battalion has taken down the first checkpoint and is now close to the south side of the Ta River, less than three kilometers away from the logistics camp." A staff officer replied.
Tagu slowly picked up the coffee cup, stared at the electronic map and said, "We are fighting too fast. If the idiot commander of Warhammer finds out that Tahe can't be saved, there will be no point in sending support quickly. Divide the troops and tell our warriors to attack with 300 men and station 300 men on the spot. Act as if it is very difficult to break in and quickly turn Tahe into a red danger zone."
"Yes, Commander!"
"…!" Tagu drank his coffee, reached out to pick up the command microphone, and called softly, "Copson."
"Report to the Legion Commander, my helicopter fleet has taken off!"
"Copson, don't be so stingy. Any expensive military equipment is for the purpose of war and serving people. If the helicopter fleet is gone, we can build another one. Our military treasury is very rich. You don't need to be stingy, and you don't need to let your plane fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters before firing. What we need is aerial firepower that can destroy everything."
"Of course, Commander!"
"I'll treat you to the best coffee when you come back." Tagu put down the headset, frowned and continued to look at the electronic map.
On the inner side of the canal, the leader of the Grizzlies gnashed his teeth and yelled, "Low-altitude attack! Warriors, rush into the enemy's air defense area like locusts. Every fighter plane should exert its due power! Even if it explodes, it should be within the enemy's defense zone!!"
The iron order has been issued.
The helicopter group began to fly at a low altitude and high speed. The huge propellers rotated in groups, causing ripples on the surface of the sea.
In just over thirty seconds, the group of helicopters flew over the water and arrived at the port where the Ta River enters.
More than 40 armed helicopters, equipped with hundreds of rotary machine guns and 320 airborne rocket launchers.
What kind of concentrated firepower is this?!
More than 320 rocket launchers are enough to flatten a small hillside.
“Da Da…!”
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…!”
One air-to-ground shell after another, forming a dense firepower network, indiscriminately covered the Tahe landing base. The camp area of tens of thousands of square meters below instantly turned into a sea of fire.
A group of helicopters flew across the sky, and a group of rocket launchers with an attack range of more than 30 kilometers, hidden in the dense forest, also began to fire shells at this side.
The two sides exchanged fire for less than five minutes, and the logistics base at the entrance to the Tahe port had been turned into a sieve.
From an actual combat perspective, Tagu's troops have much higher execution capabilities than the Warhammer Mercenary Group, and have an absolute advantage in weapons and equipment.
Bana City is too rich! The income from a canal line has exceeded the total income of many European quasi-regions, and their military units are also absolutely elite. The high military expenditure is spread among 18,000 people, what kind of equipment can they buy? !
The Chijun may have to divide one dollar among five people, but the other side has five people's military expenses for one person, how can they be compared
…
In the front-line command center of the Warhammer Mercenary Group, the white commander, Rumeni, looked at the real-time feedback images of the battlefield in disbelief, and saw with his own eyes that the Tahe area had changed from a green mark to a red code.
Red code area!
This feedback signal indicates that the command center in the Tahe area has been destroyed and is on the verge of loss.
"waste!"
Rumeli, wearing a white military shirt, stood with his hands on his hips and shouted, "Oh my God! The logistics base of more than 3,000 people was destroyed in less than five minutes of fighting. This is a group of sheep troops. The military commander should go to Australia to develop animal husbandry instead of joining the army!"
"General...!"
"Order the Second Corps' garrison troops along the way to reinforce the Tahe area immediately." Rumeli's blue eyes turned red with anger: "Gentlemen, that is our dining table. If we lose the Tahe area, we will only have shit to eat tomorrow!"
The order was issued, and the Warhammer troops outside the city of Bana began to reinforce Tahe in an orderly manner. Various mechanized battalions and tank regiments were all dispatched.
…
Half an hour later, at the Sri Lanka Caliper Army Base.
Su Tianyu and a large group of people were sitting in the conference room, drinking tea, enjoying the air conditioning, and watching a war drama.
"The latest battle situation, Tahe River is red!" Xin Xiaodong put down the phone and said, "Three combat regiments of the Second Legion of Warhammer have rushed to the port for reinforcement."
"How many people are there in their three groups?" Su Tianyu turned his head and asked.
"About four or five thousand people."
"How many people went from Heishui to attack Tahe?" Su Tianyu asked again.
Xin Xiaodong paused and replied, "We don't know the exact number, but it shouldn't be too many, maybe just over a thousand soldiers?"
"More than a thousand people mobilized more than five thousand people?!" Su Tianyu frowned, and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"hehe!"
Chief of Staff Wu sat on the sofa and looked at Su Tianyu with a slightly sarcastic smile.
