#325 - The situation took a turn for the worse
“The Southern Army is so weak that the Northern Army's victory is just around the corner.” Some people in the decision-making circle, watching the Northern Army sweep across the peninsula like mercury spilling onto the ground, suddenly felt that there was nothing to worry about.
“That Ren Zhong is still an alarmist, saying that the Northern Army is bound to lose. I think he's going to be slapped in the face this time.”
“The Southern Army is a typical puppet army, with no combat power at all. They are simply vulnerable. We were worried before, but now it seems that we were completely overthinking it.
The Rogue Eagle probably won't intervene anymore. If they were going to intervene, they would have done it already. They've just been talking about it, and in action, they've only added 200,000 troops to their little notebook. Clearly, they could have transported them directly to the southern ports to land.”
The situation on the peninsula is turbulent, but basically, it's all about the Northern Army's unstoppable offensive.
“The North hasn't improved the defenses of Incheon much?” Ren Zhong felt a bit numb after hearing the latest situation from Chief of Staff Ye.
“They said that the main force is chasing the enemy in the south, and they have now strengthened the defense of Incheon with a regiment, deployed a new artillery position, and laid landmines. They have also mobilized a tank company. This level of defense can already cope with a division-level landing operation and hold out until reinforcements arrive.” Chief of Staff Ye said with a wry smile.
“They can't listen to our words now. Obviously, they don't think that the Rogue Eagle will stab them in the back here.
They believe that Incheon is a very unsuitable landing point for the Rogue Eagle. The biggest feature of Incheon Port is its large tidal range, with an average range of 6.9 meters, and a maximum range of up to 10 meters, making it the coast with the largest tidal range in Asia and the second largest in the world. Moreover, the tide in Incheon Port is also very peculiar, with only one high tide day each month, and the high tide time on each high tide day is only three hours each in the morning and evening. And the Rogue Eagle's landing ships, due to draft limitations (the draft of small landing craft directly landing on the beach is 7 meters, and the draft of large landing ships is 8.8 meters), can only enter the bay during high tide.”
“In fact, all kinds of excuses don't realize the importance of the problem.”
Very good.
As always, stubborn and unwilling to listen to advice, thinking that he has reached the peak of his life, and then being directly hammered to the ground from the clouds.
Ren Zhong had no good feelings for this person.
Being beaten up was what he deserved, and he would have time to cry.
Ren Zhong didn't expect him to succeed in the first place.
He didn't expect him to keep the Rogue Eagle out.
That was too unrealistic.
“Regardless of them, we will prepare according to our rhythm. In terms of the air force, the main force must now move north. The several field airports must be prepared, and the fuel and logistics must be done well with concealment. We must warn the Rogue Eagle that any attack on the mainland of Dragon Country will be met with inevitable and very severe retaliation, including but not limited to striking the Rogue Eagle's Asian garrison!” A cold light flashed in Ren Zhong's eyes.
They've been treating us like sick men for over a hundred years. Today, we will re-establish the rules for them. The little devils weren't beaten hard enough, so you, the Rogue Eagle, will taste the power of the strongest land army in Blue Star!
“It's no longer meaningful for Li Yunlong to stay with the little devils. Leave the garrison behind and let Li Yunlong come back!”
The Northern Army's main force surrounded Busan and continued to launch a strong attack. However, the situation continued to evolve, and instead of following the script that the North thought was about to win, the Rogue Eagle, as always, suddenly took action according to Ren Zhong's script and successfully landed in Incheon.
The Northern Army, extremely excited in victory, had developed a kind of illusion at that time, as if national unification was just around the corner. No one's advice was useful at this time. So, Incheon, as always, only had an understaffed regimental team defending it, allowing the Rogue Eagle's sea, land, and air three-dimensional strikes to quickly collapse it!
Then, they went straight to Seoul, which was also weakly defended, and quickly cut off the Northern Army's fragile logistics supply line, completely paralyzing the Northern Army's logistics.
The originally unstoppable main force of the Northern Army was defeated after only a few days of struggle without logistical support.
The great and righteous Wei Guangzheng instantly fell from the clouds. “How could this happen? How could this happen?”
Muttering to himself like Aunt Xianglin, the richness of his expression was so heart-wrenching and tear-jerking.
However, all of this was within Ren Zhong's expectations.
Immediately, Dragon Country began to issue warnings that the 38th parallel was not to be challenged, and don't say you weren't warned!
However, Five-Star General MacArthur also had a feeling of being at the peak of his life. He was complacent about the Rogue Eagle's victory on the peninsula and had no intention of stopping. The 38th parallel seemed to be a piece of trash that anyone could throw away at any time!
After landing in Incheon and reversing the entire battle situation, he headed north all the way. Five-Star General MacArthur was full of ambition and wanted to achieve the merit of destroying a country again!
He didn't care what the Dragon Country people said.
“We can't wait any longer. We can't wait for the Rogue Eagle to gain a foothold in the north.” Looking at the Rogue Eagle's actions reported back, which were basically no different from the familiar history of his time and space, Ren Zhong had long given up any hope that they would stop south of the 38th parallel.
After the Northern Army was blown up, Wei Guangzheng, who had fallen from the clouds, rushed to the north to ask the Big Bear to send troops to help, and was predictably rejected.
The Big Bear chickened out. They didn't even have any reason and directly refused to send troops!
Even in terms of weapons provision, it has now been greatly reduced. What they provide is a drop in the bucket, completely insufficient to support the number of rebuilt troops!
Not to mention establishing the ability to resist the Rogue Eagle's modern three-dimensional offensive.
Wei Guangzheng collapsed at that time. They had agreed to be comrades, brothers and sisters to liberate the south together, but when the north was defeated, they suddenly didn't even want to lend a hand to help the younger brother!
“They were defeated like this, so thoroughly defeated.” Chief of Staff Ye was also a little surprised to see the Northern Army disintegrate and collapse in a short period of time. It should be known that some of the Northern troops were split off from this side.
From the perspective of combat level, they should not be much different from us. How could they be defeated so quickly?
“It's not surprising. They were too complacent and forgot that with such a big step forward, the logistical support that stretched for hundreds of kilometers couldn't keep up at all.
They didn't take a break after fighting until now, and they didn't think of ways to consolidate the lifeline of logistical support, especially ignoring the defenses of the deadly ports that could be landed on in the rear. It's not unjust to be defeated!
After losing logistical support, many soldiers on the front line soon had few bullets left to use.
In this situation, how could they not be defeated when facing the Rogue Eagle's modern combat system?” Ren Zhong said.
“In modern warfare, logistics are crucial. In the current weapon system, ammunition supply consumption is huge. If the logistics supply can't keep up, then the front-line troops will have no combat power at all!
In this time facing a powerful opponent like the Rogue Eagle, we must pay special attention to the rhythm of logistical supply and the distance and speed of the front-line troops' assault! We must never be reckless. If someone cuts off our logistical supply, our front-line troops will not only be very passive, but also suffer huge losses in the face of the enemy's indiscriminate bombing!
Regarding this point, the General Staff Department recommends repeated simulations of transportation capacity and logistical line security forces. Although we are not afraid of sacrifice, we cannot give up even one soldier without unnecessary sacrifice!”
Ren Zhong's reminder was timely for Chief of Staff Ye. As an insider who knew the core information, he now clearly understood that we would definitely send troops. Therefore, how to win this war was his primary responsibility.
Ren Zhong's repeated reminders about logistics made Chief of Staff Ye increase the urgency and importance of this work.
In addition to the air force moving north and the secret mobilization of railway and automobile transportation capacity, the railway transportation capacity connecting the Jiuyuan and Jinzhong military production bases with the north is now also being prepared.
Heavy weapons such as artillery and tanks have long been moved north to stand by.
Even fierce generals such as Li Yunlong and Ding Wei have been secretly recalled by the General Staff Department and have begun to undergo training, a large part of which comes from the combat data provided by Ren Zhong!
The second update, continue to ask for votes! Brothers, the first counterattack is coming soon!
