Doomsday Commander Chapter 165

  Chapter 165 The Collision of Scouts

   Tang Zheng was sitting in the Humvee, and the large army rumbled forward beside him.

  His field troops don't need to walk now, they all board the car.

  After he established the armored battalion, he assigned the armored vehicles under his command to the field troops.

  Two armored vehicles can carry a platoon of soldiers.

  Accompanied by military trucks, some soldiers carrying heavy firepower ride in military trucks.

   Such as flamethrower fighters, heavy machine gun battle groups, etc.

   In addition, there are motorcycles, jeeps and other vehicles accompanying them. In this way, the entire army does not need to walk. The current field battalion can actually be called a mechanized infantry battalion.

   There are also heavy-duty flatbed trucks, carrying tanks one after another, following the troops.

  Departing early in the morning, at 9:00 am, the troops were already less than 50 kilometers away from Mangye Town.

  In the Hummer, Tang Zheng leaned on the seat, looking at the radar screen in the system.

  On the radar screen, the layout of the alliance and the basic situation of Mangye Town can all be seen.

  The area of ​​Mangye Town is already beyond the radar exploration range of Chasing Light City, which is transmitted back from the perspective of the war eagle.

It's just that this kind of picture is not as clear as the radar exploration. It can only see the approximate layout. It is not like the radar screen. It is clear how many light spots represent how many people. There are many things that need to be figured out. Zheng made his own judgment.

   "Xie Jinshan's layout seems to be good this time. The position has a strategic depth and many fortifications have been built. The command post is located in the cave behind, which can withstand bombardment and air strikes."

   "As long as he doesn't come out of the cave, the decapitation operation is difficult to carry out. If he wants to attack the command post, he can only break through the front, or sneak attack from the enemy's rear, and swim across the river with armed forces."

   "But there are corpses on the other side of the river, and the command post has also set up a beachhead, and armed swimming is also untenable."

   "And this guy also deployed his armored units and artillery units in the position, which greatly increased the defense of the position, making it difficult to break through from the front."

   "How afraid he is of our Light Chasing Army, which has 20,000 troops, and is still so shrunken."

   Tang Zheng was also a little speechless towards Xie Jinshan's actions, but he had to admit that although this method was stupid, it was the most effective against his own side.

  The opponent's tanks, armored vehicles, etc. are all hidden in the defensive positions several kilometers away, which undoubtedly makes it more difficult for the attacking side to attack.

  Tang Zheng thought at first whether Xie Jinshan's side would sneak attack while he was marching, but now it seems that he thought too much, and the other party didn't have any such intentions.

   Tang Zheng wanted to study the map carefully and check the alliance's weaknesses, but the war eagle suddenly moved.

  Someone shot at the war eagle!

   Fortunately, the shot was not fatal. The war eagle flapped its wings and quickly flew away from the area.

  But the picture no longer shoots the alliance base, but returns to this side.

  Ning Yuwei, the guard platoon leader sitting next to Tang Zheng, said: "General, could it be that they discovered that the war eagles were spying on them?"

   Tang Zheng said noncommittally: "It's not sure yet, but there is another possibility, that is, they think that the war eagle is a mutant bird, which may pose a threat to the lives of the soldiers in their position, so they shoot or drive them away."

  Tang Zheng felt that his judgment might be right, but no matter what it was, he couldn't continue the investigation now.

   It can also be seen from this that the alliance is very cautious.

  The convoy kept moving forward until it was more than ten kilometers away from Mangye Town before slowly stopping.

  The alliance's position is located in the southwest of Mangye Town, which is the transportation hub after the end of the world.

  The Light Chasing Army has now come to the northeast of Mangye Town. The distance between the two sides is only more than 20 kilometers, and there is a Mangye Town in the middle.

   Can't continue to move forward. If you continue to move forward, you will enter within the range of the alliance's artillery.

   Tang Zheng and the others chose a high ground to stop, and the engineers got out of the car, and began to check whether there was a minefield laid by the alliance nearby.

   After inspection, it was found that there was no minefield here, so Tang Zheng and the others temporarily stopped here.

  The soldiers got out of the car, and the officers all came to Tang Zheng's side.

  On the high ground, everyone in the Chasing Light Army complained about Xie Jinshan's behavior for a while.

First Battalion Commander Luo Fei said: "General, this Xie Jinshan is too cunning. He has arranged his positions like a tortoise shell, and he can't get out of the shell. The war eagle's scouting angle is gone. This battle is not worth it. It's a good fight."

  Second Battalion Commander Yang Mu also said: "That's right, especially their armored troops are hiding in the positions. This is obviously going to push the tortoise to the end. If this battle continues, our casualties will not be small."

  The battalion of the First Armored Battalion, Jiang Hao, said bitterly: "I came all the way here just to teach their armored troops a lesson. This is not giving me a chance."

  Tang Zheng waited for the soldiers to finish their speeches before slowly opening his mouth: "So in your opinion, what aspects do we need to do well in order to win this battle?"

  Several battalion commanders looked at each other. First of all, artillery battalion commander Wang Jinglong said: "We must eliminate their threats first, such as artillery. This is a threat to our offensive troops. We should find a way to destroy them."

  The Second Battalion Commander Yang Mu said: "It is in our best interest to let their armored troops come out and annihilate them outside."

  The first battalion commander, Luo Fei, said again: "It would be great if there is a way not to attack their positions head-on. Letting them attack us is the best way."

  Tang Zheng nodded after hearing this: "You are right, we must let the alliance troops come out, otherwise, even if we can win this tough battle, we will lose a lot, but how to let them come out, then we have to think of a way."

   "It is right to destroy their artillery first, so that they lose their long-range firepower. Without long-range firepower, they will come out sooner or later in the face of our artillery bombardment."

   "But now we'd better be able to figure out their internal layout, Ji Yuntian, and whether there is any plan from the Military Intelligence Bureau."

Ji Yuntian spoke from the side: "General, for this battle, the Military Intelligence Bureau and the special service troops all came with the army to carry out a joint operation and have a working direction. We are investigating each other, and the other party is also investigating us. I plan to use this a little."

   "Okay, let's take a rest on the spot first. The cooking team is preparing to cook. Xie Jinshan made up his mind to let us take the initiative to attack, but I don't like him."

  On the east side of Mangye Town, in the dense forest on the hillside.

  A reconnaissance team from the alliance is holding a telescope on the top of the mountain, looking at the position of the light chasing army from a distance.

  They have been lurking here for a while, and finally waited for the arrival of the Light Chaser.

  Facing the powerful enemy of the Light Chasing Army, the alliance has always been at a disadvantage psychologically.

   In the battle against the zombies under the Light Chasing City, you can clearly see the gap in combat power between the two sides. Now that they are confronting the Light Chasing Army head-on, everyone in the alliance has no idea.

   Otherwise, Xie Jinshan would not be so conservative, and made up his mind to guard the position and leave.

  He not only ambushed all the armored and artillery units in the position, but also made a lot of natural protection.

  The tanks and cannons were covered with branches, and some anti-radar paint was applied.

   The trenches were dug very deep, and there were air-raid shelters, and even a considerable amount of food and water were stored here.

   Several ammunition depots have been built, all of which are located deep in the position. It is difficult to find the specific location without looking close.

   I made up my mind to fight the Light Chasing Army here, and I was quite well prepared.

  Besides, Xie Jinshan also dispatched many of these reconnaissance teams to try to understand the situation of the Light Chasing Army so that they can know themselves and their enemies.

  Zab is the captain of this scouting team.

  The area where he was lurking was a key area, where Tang Zheng was most likely to camp here, so Xie Jinshan sent elite soldiers.

  Zab was an outstanding hunter on the grassland before the end of the world.

  He once confronted wolves alone and killed seven wild wolves with his dagger.

  He once chased and killed the people who stole from his house by himself, killed two thieves with his own hands, and was imprisoned for several years because of it.

  After the end of the world, he has always been the best soldier in Xie Jinshan's army, and now he is the scout captain.

  The few people around him were also people who rolled in the mountains and forests all year round before the end of the world. There were hunters, people who ran mountains, and mercenaries.

  Everyone has excellent marksmanship, as well as good detection and survivability.

  For example, Zhang Biao next to him is an unscrupulous kid, but he is good at both shooting and fighting.

   The few of them came out this time without even riding a motorcycle, and they used their feet to shuttle through the mountains and forests.

   Here, Zab has a very strong self-confidence, no one can catch him in the mountains and defeat him.

  Withered and yellow leaves were falling in front of his eyes, and the wind on the top of the mountain made Zhabu tighten his leather jacket.

   Putting down the binoculars, Zab said to the people around him: "Record it."

  A man next to him took out a pen and paper, listening to Zhabu's dictation.

   "The Light Chasing Army has arrived and is now camping northeast of Mangye Town."

   "The number of people. Not less than five thousand."

   "The number of tanks is about thirty, and the number of artillery is about fifty."

   "Six helicopters, including five transport planes."

   "About fifty armored vehicles..."

  He introduced one by one, and quickly recorded over there.

   "Captain Zhabu, the strength of the Light Chaser Army seems to be just that. Why are we so cautious and conservative? If you want me to say it, we will go out directly, and it will be over if we take them out."

  Zhang Biao listened to the side for a while, feeling a little disapproving of the strength of the Light Chasing Army.

  Zarbu patted him on the head: "Stinky boy, do you think there is only one smart person in the world? Speaker Xie and the others made such a decision, so they have their reasons. We just need to follow the order."

The young man recorded next to him also said: "That's right, brother Zhang Biao, I still listen to the captain. This time we got the first-hand information about the Light Chasing Army. As long as we can return to the alliance, there will be a reward of 10,000 Guangyuan." Woolen cloth."

  After hearing this, Zhang Biao moved his eyes: "Then I will investigate carefully to see where Tang Zheng is."

   As he spoke, he took the high-powered binoculars and stood up to investigate.

   "Be careful!"

  Zab wanted to persuade him, but at this moment, a dull gunshot sounded in the mountains and forests!

   Zhang Biao stood up, turned over and fell down with a scream, his shoulders were blood red!

   "No, we are being targeted!"

  Relying on his experience, Zab looked directly to the southeast.

  In the mountains and forests, there were many figures, and a scouting unit of the Light Chasing Army appeared.
