Warhammer 40k: Far East Storm

Chapter 183 Bleeding

"Father," Li Anjie took the stool, moved to Li's seat, put his arms around Li's arms, and shook and said, "If others say so, I will not ask more, but you must know."

"Oh," Li smiled, did not answer, and asked, "What do you think? Does that young couple still have a chance?"

Li Anjie thought carefully for a while before saying, "If we win, then they will have a great chance to meet. If we lose, they will never meet."

"Yes, you're right. However, we won't lose." Li explained, "At least we won't lose this battle."

"Father, you just said that no one can say for sure about war."

"Hahaha, it is true that accidents may happen, but we always have a way to minimize the probability of accidents. At the same time, we make preparations for possible accidents. In short, it is the problem of fault tolerance," Li explained, "The current situation is that there are our planes in the sky. Beyond the atmosphere above, there are our warships. There are satellites in the sky staring at the enemy's every move. Although our weapons are not powerful, they can also be said to be excellent. The structure of the troops is clear and clear. There are armored troops responsible for raiding, digging trenches and building a stable defense line of bunkers. The artillery troops that brought heavy blows to the enemy, and in terms of the layout of the army, the enemy is already in our encirclement. Therefore, whether it is the number of troops, the control of information, or the strategic situation, we all have an advantage, and the staff also adopts a sound strangulation tactic in this case. In this case, if we can still lose, I really have nothing to say.

"You mean we will win?"

"This is a predestined thing. War does not start after the first shot. In fact, for most leaders, the end of the war is doomed before the war. The victory or defeat on the battlefield is only the embodiment of the final result in the whole war, and there is a long process before the result. This orc attack should not even be considered a war for our planet Zhiyuan. If our defense system is perfect enough, and if our officials and people can be more vigilant, then things will not go to this point at all. Li sighed and said, "So I am full of confidence in the upcoming victory on Zhiyuan Star. That young man has not even officially set foot on the battlefield, and the war on Zhiyuan Star will come to an end."

"Then isn't he not in danger? He won't even really participate in the war."

"You can't say that, because our battlefield is not only on Zhiyuan Star. The enemy is not only invading one place. Although the battlefield on Zhiyuan Star is very optimistic, the situation on the other battlefield is challenging enough..."

"You mean it's dangerous?"

"It's hard to say that if the battle enters the stage of holding each other, the war will last for a period of time. This period of time should not be too short. If you want to win quickly, or easily gain an absolute advantage, it will be one," Li sighed with a wry smile. "Well, it's not easy to predict. Zhiyuan Star will bleed for a long time for this.

"Does it seem difficult?"

"Yes, it's really not easy to do."

"Is there anything I can do?"

"Study hard and then live a happy life is enough!" Li took out a pocket watch, looked at the time, got up and said, "It's getting late. It's time to go. I'll take you back to school."

After sending Li Anjie back to the school dormitory, Li returned to the consul's mansion. After having a casual dinner, Li changed into a gorgeous consul's dress and went to the military conference room. In the conference room, more than a dozen senior military personnel have been waiting here for a long time.

"Guys, I've been waiting for a long time, so let's get started."

"Okay." The Chief of General Staff stood up, took the baton handed over by the serviceman, and walked to everyone in front of everyone. First of all, he saluted Li Jing, and then said, "Gentlemen, first of all, I would like to report a good news to you. We have completely won the strategic victory in the war that happened on Zhiyuan Star. Please look at the picture.

Behind the Chief of General Staff, a huge military map slowly unfolded. On the map, the red and green arrows representing the military situation of the two sides are intertwined and entangled.

"This is the latest military posture map of the enemy and us. The red one is our army. This time, the enemy did not use the usual blue, but deliberately used green to represent the local military spirit, so as to be more eye-catching and easy for you to understand." The Chief of General Staff drew a large circle on the map with a baton, and then said, "After the consul led the Star Wars Regiment to successfully complete the beheading task, it caused a whole month-long period of chaos for the enemy, that is, the orcs. During this period, there was a fierce melee between the orcs and warlords, which consumed A large number of orc troops. Of course, this also invisibly improves the combat ability of orcs, and our army will face more powerful orcs in future wars. The consul has given us a precious month. During this month, we have perfected the overall layout and firmly controlled the enemy in the encirclement. The first step of the plan has been perfectly achieved, and the second part of the plan began a week ago.

Li nodded and understood that the plan was originally made according to his intention. The plan was roughly divided into three steps, and the first step was to surround them. The second step is to squeeze them. The third step is to burn them.

Now the plan has entered the second step, and it is also the most fierce step, squeezing them. In the second step of the plan, the army should slowly tighten like a lock, squeeze the space for the orcs to live, tighten their necks, and do not leave them a void, so that they will eventually suffocate and die.

It's simple to say, and it's really a good strategy. But how should we squeeze it? How to squeeze? This depends on the deployment and operation of the staff of the staff. No matter how perfect the tactics are, they have to be completed by the soldiers step by step, but it is not an easy thing to move forward with the orc army opposite. However, from the current point of view, the implementation of the plan is still very smooth.

"What about the casualties of each department? What about the morale of the soldiers?

"The specific number of casualties has not been counted, so the specific number is not yet known. As far as the situation reported by various ministries is concerned, the general situation should be like this. Because the rescue and medical treatment are very timely and perfect, most of our wounded can return to the battlefield, so although the casualties are not small, the soldiers still maintain high morale due to the perfect rescue and logistics. Of course, we have a large number of soldiers far more than the number of enemies, and we always take the initiative on the battlefield, which is the main reason.

Li sighed. If he is an ordinary consul, he may really be fooled by this sentence. The perfect medical system and logistics may indeed play a certain role in stabilizing the mood of soldiers and saving the sluggish morale, but the most critical thing should be the last sentence, that is, "We have far more than There are a large number of soldiers, and they always take the initiative on the battlefield. It is the most critical.

These two ensure that the morale of the legion will not be too low. Regardless of any army, once the number of casualties in the group exceeds a certain number, it will lead to the collapse of its morale. When this number is too large, it will directly lead to the disappearance of the sequence and the collapse of the front. Of course, there are exceptions to the last one, but this does not represent the vast majority of soldiers and teams.

The number of soldiers exceeds the enemy and still occupies the initiative of the battlefield, so it can be easily rotated and replenished. Once the team's casualties are too large, it can be retreated to the rear for repair and replenishment, and the new team that has been prepared for a long time will be filled.

Because they have always occupied the initiative of the battlefield, the commanders can easily command the troops to rotate. On the one hand, they can continuously consume the enemy's combat effectiveness and maintain a strong offensive. On the other hand, they can also ensure that their combat effectiveness will not be greatly damaged. In this way, almost every company will have an acceptable casualty number, but the combination of these numbers is shocking enough.

"What is the proportion of enemy-to-my loss?"

The Chief of General Staff was stunned, took a deep breath in embarrassment, and then said, "At first, the proportion of war losses was eight to one, but now it has been reduced to five to one."

"Eight to one?" Li was silent for a while, then turned up the volume and asked loudly, "You said it's eight to one!"

This is indeed a number that is enough to make all commanders feel ashamed, eight to one, which means that every time the enemy dies, we have to sacrifice eight soldiers.

There is no need for any explanation and annotation. The 8 to 1 war loss ratio is undoubtedly a complete failure in any battle.

The Chief of General Staff wiped the sweat on his forehead, lowered his head and did not answer.

In the face of this kind of data, he is really ashamed to argue.

"There's no way, my lord," a staff officer explained, "Our soldiers mostly did not participate in a real war. For all soldiers, and even commanders, this is the first time they have set foot on a real battlefield. There is no large-scale defeat because of good training, and we The reason for occupying the position advantage, and I must say that our army is extremely short of the support of heavy weapons.
