"Besides Dan'an City, the second place we must take is Galive Town!"
"This is the production and distribution center for consumer goods in the Dan'an area. They supply the main consumer goods in the entire Dan'an area."
"If we control these two places, we can force the people of Dan'an to obey our orders!"
"The third area is Vic Town!"
"This is also a very important node. After taking this town, we will have a defensive node. We can use it to build a defense line to resist the Milda Knights' counterattack on the Dan'an area!"
The staff officer clicked on three towns and a huge city on the map in succession.
Li Xin felt a little overwhelmed when he saw all this.
Lu Quan also frowned. He said slowly, "Taking over the Dan'an region will be a huge challenge for our dispatched troops!"
"This time, Heng'an Defense will also fully cooperate with our military operations. They will mobilize three new motorized infantry brigades and one mechanized infantry brigade to support us!"
"The group also provided strong support. They mobilized an aviation division from the group's rear to support our battle."
"Our mission is to take over the entire Dan'an region. Once we take over this area, everyone's life will be a little better!"
As he spoke, Lu Quan scanned the expressions on everyone's faces.
The captain of the first squadron, Ke Qian, asked, "Supervisor, do we have any new mecha troops to support this battle?"
Lu Quan shook his head and said, "Without the support of new mecha troops, I have risked my reputation to complete our formation. It is already a very difficult task."
"The reinforcements we've brought in this time are all new recruits. All of you teams that have suffered losses, lead them carefully. Don't let any more losses occur. Support isn't easy to come by these days!"
"Yes!" More than 20 middle and lower-level commanders responded at the same time.
"I must emphasize once again that our expeditionary force must capture the Dan'an region. Right now, everyone's life is very tight, with nothing to offer. But if we can capture the Dan'an region, we will be able to get promotions and raises, among other things. This is not a dream!"
"The Danan area is completely different from the Beshimo Steel Mill. There's nothing at the steel mill but corpses!"
“And the Dan’an region has everything!”
"If we can take over Dan'an, the group will definitely continue to reinforce us. The group also wants to take over the Dan'an area!"
"Then your chances of promotion will come!"
Lu Quan began to use his great deception skills!
The deception was almost over, so Lu Quan signaled the staff officer to continue.
The staff officer nodded and continued pointing at the map:
"The enemy currently has heavy troops stationed in the Dan'an area, but fighting on the vast plains of the Dan'an area is very conducive to our army's operations!"
"At the same time, the enemy's defenses against us are not very serious, because our army has captured the Behemoth Steel Plant twice before, but did not continue to attack."
"This time, according to intelligence, the enemy currently has four brigade-level units throughout the Dan'an area: the 214th Infantry Brigade, the 322nd Infantry Brigade, the 122nd Infantry Brigade, and the 431st Mechanized Infantry Brigade."
"In addition to these, there are a total of about ten reinforced battalion-level units."
"It's important to note that these three infantry brigades, including other reinforced battalion-level units, are all motorized units. Their mobility within the radius of the highway is quite fast."
"And once the battle begins, we anticipate the enemy will still have two to three brigades or divisions ready to support us!"
"The enemy's defense line is mainly in front of the town of Galivet. This is the position that will bear the brunt of our attack. There are two lines of defense established here."
Jiang Lou listened to the staff officer's intelligence and suddenly raised his hand to ask, "How many mecha troops does the enemy have?"
This issue is not only of concern to Jiang Lou, but also to others.
The staff officer first glanced at Lu Quan, and after getting his agreement, he expanded and said, "According to current intelligence statistics, the enemy has approximately three squadrons of knights in the Dan'an area."
As soon as these words were spoken, someone in the audience exclaimed, "So many!"
"Three squadrons, isn't that about the same as us?"
A combat team's Knight Squire consists of five mechas, and a squadron consists of fifty Knight Squires.
Judging from the specific organization, the middle and lower-level combat units of the knight's escort obviously have an advantage in numbers.
Three squadrons, that is, one hundred and fifty knight escorts.
You should know that in the battle zone of the Behemoth Steel Plant, more than twenty mechas were lost in the last battle, and now there are only about 170 mechas.
The staff officer shook his head and said, "No, our army still has the advantage in terms of mecha troop strength!"
"The enemy's three squadrons are not fully staffed. The total number of mechas should be between 120 and 130."
After hearing the staff officer's words, someone murmured, "One hundred and three..."
"The numbers are fine, but I don't know what will happen if a fight breaks out."
The staff officer tapped the topographic map of the Dan'an area with his baton and continued:
"Among the three enemy mecha squadrons, they are currently stationed in three parts, one of which is within the Galivian Line on the front line."
"The second squadron will be stationed in the defense line outside Dan'an City."
"The last squadron is located relatively far back, defending within the defense line of Vic Town!"
"At the same time, the town of Vic is also the location of the supply line for the Milda Knights and the Retainers in the Danan region."
"According to the battle plan, the first step of the battle will be initiated by the aviation force. They will bomb the enemy's mecha troop base!"
"If we're lucky, the number of enemy Knight Squire Mechas we face will be smaller!"
Previously, due to the complex electromagnetic environment above the Behemoth Steel Plant and the fact that many of the enemy's fortifications and defense forces were underground.
Therefore, the Blueprint side's air force did not come to support directly.
But this time it's different.
It is true that the mecha has a void shield, but the attacks and bombings of heavy fighter jets will also make the mecha afraid.
Especially for unactivated mechas, if they are hit by bombing, there will be great losses.
The most important thing is that the bombing of the air force is not necessarily aimed at the mecha, but at the mecha division.
At the beginning of the war, even if the mecha was bombed, the damage might not be serious considering the material of the mecha.
If a mechanic puts in some effort, many of them might be repaired.
But if too many mecha pilots are killed in the explosion, there will be no one to repair them. You can't sew them up with thread and put them in the mecha to continue fighting.
