Duncan pondered for a moment and said, "This withdrawal will definitely require support and assistance from the rear."
"I will communicate and have the troops in the rear launch a fierce attack on Vick Town to attract the enemy's attention."
"At the same time, have them arrange for armored forces to provide support in the wilderness."
"At that time, the 431st Brigade can first send some of its troops to the rendezvous point, and then the armored vehicles will return to transport the rest of your infantry."
"We also need to call for air support to temporarily gain air superiority and make our evacuation smooth."
As soon as this plan was put forward, Garcia and Brook's expressions became a little better.
Although this plan is still not perfect, it is much better than defending the Dan'an area now.
Besides, where can we get a perfect plan when the war situation is not going well?
Garcia nodded slowly: "I think this plan is feasible."
Brooke asked, "Will our superiors agree to our withdrawal plan?"
Duncan looked at Brooke deeply and said, "They will."
"We have no supplies, and leaving 10,000 or 20,000 veterans here to die is a pain in the neck for even the Knights."
"Then let's jointly apply for withdrawal!"
"The sooner we do this, the better. Otherwise, when the ammunition supply is gone, we won't be able to retreat even if we want to." Garcia said loudly.
Soon, a joint application was written and sent to the superior unit in the rear.
Not surprisingly, their superiors agreed to their plan to withdraw.
And notify that a specific withdrawal plan is being formulated.
Several brigades in the Dan'an area were also making preparations at the same time.
In some ways, withdrawing troops is much more dangerous and difficult than holding the line or taking the initiative to attack.
It is necessary to arrange the route, the order of evacuation of troops, and even the troops responsible for covering the rear.
If the arrangements are not made well and the enemy catches up from behind, or the troops scatter in the wilderness due to morale reasons, it will be a big trouble.
The retreat plan of Milda's retainers is proceeding in an orderly manner.
The troops are rotating on a small scale, and even on one line of defense, only a small number of troops are left as camouflage.
The overall defense line on the front line is slowly moving backwards.
Support from the rear also arrived. The first thing was supplies dropped from the air. Under parachutes were ammunition supplies for the army.
Although the number is small, it can alleviate the urgent needs of the troops.
In the direction of Wick Town, fierce fighting has broken out again after a ceasefire of several days.
Of course, the attack was not very fierce, it was more of a feint, and its main purpose was to attract the attention of the town of Vick.
The armored forces in the rear have begun to cross the wilderness in order to meet the evacuating troops from the Dan'an area.
Although everyone knows that the wilderness can be crossed, the defenders in the Dan'an area cannot rely on this line of wilderness to continue fighting.
Because in the final analysis, they have no supplies. If they rely on transportation in the wilderness, not to mention the losses, the efficiency of transportation is also not good.
The Danan region was no longer tenable when the town of Wick was captured and could not be recaptured.
In the sky, Milda's air force and fighter jets roared through the air.
The temporary air supremacy in this airspace fell into Milda's hands.
At this time, because the enemy and our situation was unclear, Blueprint and Heng'an Defense even thought that the enemy was going to launch another large-scale attack on Vick Town.
Due to the misunderstanding in intelligence between the two sides, the defenders of Wick Town held their line firmly.
At the same time, the fighter units of the 23rd Air Division also began to take off, trying to regain air superiority.
The soldiers of Heng'an Defense on the front line also launched an attack, hoping to relieve the pressure on Wick Town.
As a result, this attack discovered problems and the enemy's defense line almost collapsed at the first touch.
At the beginning, the troops were advancing slowly to avoid ambushes.
However, as more and more intelligence was gathered, as well as sporadic reconnaissance intelligence from the air force.
Lu Quan, who was in the rear command post, slapped his thigh and shouted, "It's broken!"
"The enemies in the Dan'an area are probably about to escape!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the command center became quiet for an instant, and then became noisy again.
Yin Zhong, the war zone commander of Hengan Defense, suddenly stood up and paced in front of the table and chairs. He shouted, "It's very likely!"
"I was wondering why the enemy's reaction these past two days was so strange. Turns out they were preparing to withdraw!"
"But the town of Vick is still in the hands of our army. How can the enemy escape?"
Everyone frowned in thought, and a senior staff officer said, "Will they also go into the wilderness?"
"Yes! This is very possible!" Lu Quan said happily.
The senior staff officer's words awakened the dreamer, like a ray of light torn out from the darkness.
Lu Quan and Yin Zhong instantly opened the holographic map and looked at the topographic map here with frowns.
The intention is to find a suitable evacuation route for the enemy.
While observing, Lu Quan also said to Zou Dong, the commander of the 23rd Air Division: "Commander Zou, please ask the brothers in the Air Force to search for the enemy's evacuation route in the air!"
Zou Dong nodded repeatedly, then quickly called the staff officer and assigned the task.
After Lu Quan finished speaking, he continued with his arms clasped across his chest, searching the map with Yin Zhong for the enemy's possible retreat route.
After a while, Lu Quan and Yin Zhong's eyes were fixed on the same place at the same time.
Yin Zhong pointed his baton at this place, a smile on his face, and said to Lu Quan, "It seems that Director Lu and I have the same idea!"
Lu Quan also laughed and said, "That's right, the enemy's evacuation point should start from here!"
On the holographic map, it was Alan.
Alan is a very important place in the Danan area. It is a large hydroponic farm and a place where energy paste is industrially produced.
If the town of Vick is an important weapons logistics supply hub in the Dan'an area, then Alan is an important place for food supply in the Dan'an area.
It can be said that this place supplies 90% of the food consumption in the Danan area. From the meat and vegetables eaten by the upper echelons of Milda to the energy paste eaten by the poor and slaves, all are produced here.
This place is more than 50 kilometers away from the town of Vic and is also adjacent to the wilderness. If you start from here and go to the wilderness, and then go through the wilderness back to the Kavamo area behind the Milda Knights, it is only about 110 kilometers.
Evacuating from the wilderness is no different from any other evacuation route. The most important point is that the distance must be short, otherwise even a tracked all-terrain vehicle may break down.
