Chapter 472 Biren River
In the red area, there are some small red dots that look like tanks. They are scattered everywhere, and some are still moving.
The small red dot that looks like a tank is an enemy armored unit captured by an orbiting satellite. Because the target is large, it can be captured by the orbiting satellite for optical data analysis and then displayed on the combat command platform.
At this time, Stannie realized what Li Meng's arrival meant, which meant that the army had a pair of clairvoyance.
Looking around at everyone, Li Meng said calmly: "I am not a member of the military system of the Republic of Seville. I represent Black Flag City. My mission is to help the central government win this civil war. You don't need to know me, just You just need to obey my orders, understand?"
"yes!"
Everyone said in unison, including Stannie.
Li Meng said to Stannie: "Be prepared for war. Once I feel the time is right, I will launch a full-scale attack."
Nodding, Stannie responded: "Yes!"
Li Meng: "The meeting is dismissed."
Afterwards, the meeting was declared over and everyone dispersed.
Due to Li Meng's arrival, the civil war in the Republic of Seville has begun a new chapter.
"Welcome party?"
Standing in front of the command platform, Li Meng said calmly: "Now is war time, so there are no need for those empty things."
The sun has set and night has fallen. The airport is brightly lit in the darkness. "Little Bird" armed helicopters are placed in the open air in the square, and patrolling soldiers can be seen everywhere.
In the command room, Li Meng was looking at the tactical map after collecting friendly forces information.
In the huge city of Omo, the red and blue areas are separated by a river. In terms of the area occupied, the area occupied by the defending rebels is much larger than that occupied by the government forces.
"You were blocked by the Biron River?"
This is a very critical river. From the map, the river runs through the entire city, dividing Omo City into two. As a defensive side, the rebels can block the government forces on the other side as long as they defend a few bridges.
Stannie replied: "Yes, the Biron River is not a small river. It runs through the entire mainland island from south to north. In Agakon City, the rebels also used the Biron River to block the government troops on the south bank. "
There are two bridges on the Bilen River in Omo City, one large bridge and one small bridge, namely the First Golden Bridge and the Second Golden Bridge.
In addition to these two bridges, there is a small bridge sixty kilometers to the east.
There are many bridges across the river, but it is obvious that there will be rebel defenses on the other side of the bridge.
In order to cross the river, we must either attack frontally and seize control of the Jin 1 and Jin 2 bridges, or detour from the inland of the east, or land from the sea.
But the rebels are not fools. They must have closely monitored the Billen River. Once the government troops make a move to cross the river, they will definitely not be able to hide it from the rebels. As for crossing the sea to land, the government troops do not have this condition.
Looking at the tactical map, Li Meng had a thoughtful expression on his face.
If there is no shortcut, the only way is to use force to break through from the front.
Thinking of this, Li Meng said: "The first, second, and third armored divisions are gathering towards Jinyi Bridge. This is the main attack direction. The fourth armored division and the fifth armored division are gathering at Jin Erqiao. This is the secondary attack direction. Launch a full-scale attack at one o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
About to launch a full-scale attack?
Looking down at Li Meng beside him, Stannie reminded: "Advisor Li Meng, although the two bridges on the Bilen River are not in the hands of the rebels, they are not in the hands of the government forces. We cannot guarantee that the rebels did not do anything on the bridges. Hands and feet, if they attack rashly, they are likely to blow up the bridge."
Regarding Stannie's words, Li Meng said calmly: "This is just a possibility. The entire battle plan cannot be affected just because of one possibility. Even if there is this possibility, just check the bridge before the army crosses the river."
Stannie said nothing more. In any case, the battle line cannot remain in a stalemate.
Time passed little by little, the night gradually got deeper, and there was no words all night.
When the morning sun rises from the eastern sky, it announces the arrival of a new day.
In the early morning, when everything was coming back to life, at this quiet moment, on the tens-kilometer-long front line in Omo City, armies from all over the place began to assemble towards their respective destinations.
The First Army has five armored divisions with a total of more than 60,000 people. Each division has its own division headquarters, and each division is dispersed at the regiment level. There is no situation where a division is stationed in the same camp.
Today is a day destined to be recorded in history. While a meeting was being held in the city of Raoul, a war was about to begin in the city of Omo.
Near noon, on the east bank of the Biron River, an army appeared on the streets of the city.
With the rebels, both sides set up defense lines at the bridgeheads of Jin 1 and Jin 2 bridges.
But they are all invisible, because the width of the Biron River is only about one kilometer. If both sides set up defenses at the head of the gun, they will be targets for each other.
Therefore, the east and west coasts were quiet and deserted.
This is an army composed of armored vehicles, personnel carriers, and heavy cavalry.
Amidst the roar of the engine, the army arrived at the defense line where Jin Yiqiao was located.
"The support has arrived, is this going to be a frontal attack?"
"It should be the forward, brothers from the 17th Regiment of the 3rd Armored Division."
On the roof terrace of a private house, many soldiers looked at the arriving troops on the street below and talked about it.
As the troops came to a stop, an officer opened the door and stepped out of an armored vehicle.
I glanced down at the watch on my wrist. It was still more than an hour before one o'clock.
Looking up at the soldiers watching on the roof, Taber shouted: "Occupy all roads facing the Biren River, all rows pay attention, occupy the roof, prepare guided weapons, hurry, act immediately."
With Taber's order, the army parked on the street began to move.
A large number of soldiers jumped off the troop carriers, carrying the parts of guided weapons, and rushed into the buildings on both sides of the street.
And dozens of heavy cavalry guards dispersed and occupied various intersections.
They hid behind the buildings and observed the situation on the other side of the Biren River.
At this moment, a convoy arrived quietly under a high-rise building of more than 30 floors not far away.
On the terrace, as the door was kicked open roughly, more than a dozen fully armed soldiers rushed out and occupied the terrace.
In the back, Li Meng came out with Angelina, Dorn, and Stanley and other officers.
Coming to the edge of the terrace, Li Meng took the telescope from Angelina and looked at the situation on both sides of the Jinyi Bridge not far away.
Standing high, seeing far, the whole city of Omo is in full view.
Due to the rapid retreat of the rebels and their stubborn defense of the west bank of the Biren River, the cities on the east bank did not suffer too much damage from the fierce artillery fire, and most of the urban areas were intact.
Only some buildings near the Biren River on the east bank were destroyed. It was obvious that the two sides had exchanged fire on the line of the Biren River. Some destroyed tanks could be seen on the west bank, scattered and paralyzed on the road.
The same was true on the east bank. In the telescope, near the bridgehead, Li Meng also saw some destroyed vehicles and heavy cavalry guards.
