City: I Have A Red Alert Base

Chapter 101: Beledwen

The Gorge Road Bridge in Beledweyne is the only way to connect Beledweyne to the frontline battlefield.

Although there are some mountain trails that can cross the Grand Canyon, the highway bridge can pass vehicles and even heavy equipment. It is the gateway to the southern region and a strategic key protection facility.

The Legion's offensive is in full swing, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks through the Beledweyne line of defense. Therefore, the Legion has no plan to bomb the highway bridge at all, so the only possible result is that the senior national army commander of the defending army chose to blow up the highway bridge, seeing that the war was unfavorable.

"Who is the commander on the opposite side?" Chen Xuance asked with a frown while looking at the photos and video data from the reconnaissance plane on the big screen.

"Report, the enemy commander is the National Army Chief of Staff Admiral Herlug!" a Red Police officer reported.

"Yo, he's still an admiral." Chen Xuance said with a smile.

He has just been promoted to lieutenant general, and he has an army of 40,000 to 50,000 people, while the opposite Herlug holds an army of 120,000 people. Police Corps.

"Khalid is a warlord, and he rose to the top by relying on his relationship in the army. After he became the president, he also served as the general of the National Army. Although Herlug is his cronie, if it is not for this This war needs, at most, a lieutenant general." A Red Police officer introduced.

"However, although we have the upper hand in the current battle situation, the National Army has not yet reached the point of complete collapse. Our frontline troops are also about ten kilometers away from the closest canyon highway bridge. There is no need for Herlug to blow up the highway bridge now. Huh?" Another Red Police officer raised his head from the map and said puzzled.

Chen Xuance also saw the picture of the reconnaissance plane coming back, and the soldiers of the National Army who were rescuing the highway bridge seemed a little flustered.

"In addition to us and Herlug, is there a third-party force?" a Red Police officer guessed.

"Order Beledwen's spies to investigate the situation of the highway bridge!" Chen Xuance said with a serious expression: "If it was Herlug who blew it up, then it's better to say, if it is a third-party force, we have to be a little more careful. "

Chen Xuance, who had participated in the high-level meeting, knew that there was a coveted Serbian country next to him, and that the agents of the Eagle country might be lurking in the southern region, and from time to time they might come forward to harass the army's offensive.

However, the Red Police Corps has long been prepared for this. Chen Xuance has only three combat brigades in the front-line battlefield. The guard force serves as a reserve force and a local security force after the occupation of the area. There is also a combat brigade ready to respond to emergencies at any time.

And there are still many Red Police spies who have sent information from various parties. Once there is any trouble, the Red Police Corps can immediately get the information and take corresponding countermeasures.

When Chen Xuance ordered the Red Police spy to investigate the explosion of the highway bridge.

In Beledwen City, the city center built on the mountain, in an underground fortress, Herlug is furious.

"What's the 3rd Guard Corps doing? Why did people blow up the highway bridge!" Herlug irritably reprimanded the officer in front of him.

The commander-in-chief, who was wearing the National Army uniform, had cold sweat on his forehead, shirking his responsibility and said, "It must be someone from the legion!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Herlug picked up the pencil on the map table and smashed it.

The sharp end of the pencil slammed into the face of the Major Commander, causing him pain, but he did not dare to move at all, and could only endure Herlug's scolding.

"Are you a pig! What good is blowing up the road bridge to the Legion? We are at a disadvantage now on the battlefield! Hellug yelled.

After scolding, he panted and sat down slowly, and the guard next to him quickly stepped forward and poured a cup of hot water.

Herlug took a sip of hot water and drank it.

Then he said to the commander of the major: "I don't care what you do! Before noon tomorrow! Fix the road bridge for me! Otherwise you won't have to come back.

The head of the major gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!

Afterwards, he quickly left the underground fortress.

After he left, Herlug sighed and looked at the map solemnly.

Fortunately, the highway bridge was only broken in the middle, and the bridge piers on both sides were not in trouble. As long as the middle was reconnected, and then covered with steel plates, the traffic could continue.

Otherwise, the front line of 120,000 troops would be in danger.

The battle situation on the front line was getting worse and worse. The army's offensive was as fierce as fire, and it was not at all a level opponent with the warlord troops, tribal armed forces or guerrillas that he had previously commanded the National Army to fight.

The soldiers on the opposite side are well-trained and equipped with advanced weapons and equipment, and the only two dozen large-caliber artillery and rocket artillery vehicles of the National Army under him were blown up as soon as the battle began. .

But Herlug knew that sooner or later, the line of defense would be torn apart by the legion. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after, no one knew how long the front-line National Army would be able to hold on under the fierce offensive of the legion.

So Herlug dug various mountain tunnels in Beledweyne early in the morning to prepare for a tragic street battle.

Beledwen is built on a mountain, with complex terrain, and there are many places to hide soldiers. In addition, the tunnels dug in the mountain are intricate, and there are many places that can be used. If you really want to fight a tragic street battle, you can hide tens of thousands of soldiers. Herlug is confident that he can hold the Legion for at least a month.

The only problem is that the food in Beraidwen is difficult to obtain, and the water source is not a big problem.

However, the black hand who blew up the 603 Canyon Highway Bridge made Herlug very worried.

The other party can blow up the highway bridge without knowing it when the two armies are at war, either by bribing the three guard regiments stationed on the highway bridge under his command, or by special forces fighting.

And the only people who can have such means and are eyeing this war are the Eagle Country and the neighboring country of Serbia.

Now Eagle Country doesn't know what's going on, but Serbia's words...

With the previous experiences of the Serbian state interfering with the national army's northward unification of the country, Herlug instinctively harbored great hostility and suspicion towards the Serbian state.

Although there are also some tribal armed and anti-government armed forces in the southern area of ​​the neighboring country of Serbia, but in general, the development is much better than that of the country.

A relatively stable country, whose military power is also developing continuously and steadily, must have trained special operations forces.

But these possible rats must be hidden in the dark sewers. It is not so easy to catch them. Hellug can only arrange some more people and send his own guard team to guard the Canyon Road Bridge.

The Battle of Beledweyne is still in full swing.

Just when Herlug ordered the reinforcement of the highway bridge, the liaison officer came to report in a panic.

The southern capital, Gaza, has been out of contact for hours.
