We have to defend everywhere unless we have a powerful force that can be mobilized in time and can provide support to various positions at any time.
Otherwise, there will be loopholes everywhere.
When Aden Lixin was suppressing the rebels, that was his defensive operation, but the difference between then and now is huge.
At that time, he had an absolute advantage in strength, much better weapons, and great mobility.
The base's convoy can provide support to any battlefield within twenty minutes.
And now, if Li Xin wants to defend such a large area, it will take more than a few dozen minutes to provide support.
The distance is hundreds of kilometers. If the road conditions are bad or there is an attack along the way, it may take a day or two for support to arrive.
In a day or two, if the enemy gathers a superior force, the bones of the soldiers on the defensive position may be enough to beat drums.
Wars today are different from those in the past. In the past, even armored clusters could be blocked by infantry within cities and defense lines.
But now that we have mechas for ground assaults, that is not necessarily the case.
Only mechas can fight against mechas. It is too difficult to establish a defense line and rely on defensive forces to fight against mechas.
Even heavy tanks using plasma jet cannons would require multiple numbers to be able to fight against mechas at a long range.
But heavy tanks are even rarer than mechas in some aspects. Although the costs of the two are different, there are too few environments where heavy tanks can be used.
Li Xin thought that this process was a painful one for Brand and others.
But compared to others, Brand seemed more confident.
He had already wiped the sweat off his face and sat quietly waiting for Li Xin's next move.
After a long while, Li Xin nodded and said, "You convinced me. I decided to do as you said!"
Brand said happily, "Thank you, sir!"
However, Li Xin knocked on the table and said, "But you reminded me. Transfer all your assets out. Even if we fail and can't stop the enemy, we can still make a little money."
"Don't you think so?"
Li Xin looked at Brand with a smile on his face.
Brand laughed dryly and said, "You're right."
Brand could now imagine that the other managers were probably looking at him with murderous eyes.
They didn't dare to look at Li Xin, who had the power, in this way, but they dared to do so to Brand, who made the suggestion.
That was true even if Brand had just saved at least half of them with his words.
Sometimes this is just the nature of these managers.
…
Li Xin’s work at Dewan Technology also ended here.
As Brand said, Li Xin only left a battalion-level force in the city as a garrison to protect and supervise the city of Dewan Technology.
The rest of the area was returned to the original management staff of Dewan Technology.
The martial law was lifted in the city, and it seemed to have returned to its original state. Apart from the damaged city and the dead soldiers, there was no difference from before.
With the assistance of these original managers, Li Xin's rule over Dewan Technology became much smoother.
He originally planned to implement martial law, but this would inevitably require the withdrawal of some officers and soldiers.
A city like this would require at least an entire garrison brigade of officers and soldiers from Li Xin to maintain stability.
But now, it can be done with just one battalion, which is really a great deal.
Next, Li Xin began to designate a garrison for his troops.
This time, they did not disperse the troops too much, and they were basically in a state where they could be deployed to fight at any time.
Defense does not exist for Li Xin now.
He simply deployed some troops on the border.
When the enemy troops actually arrive, Li Xin will take the initiative to attack.
If you can win, continue to occupy these three territories. If you can't win, then just return to Yadun honestly.
Don't think about getting a promotion or a raise when the time comes, just don't get fired.
In the command center, Li Xin looked at the holographic map and looked at the area.
The combined territories of the Gaswu Order, Nordong Castle, and Dewan Technology are only slightly larger than the former Dan'an, but the population is relatively larger.
If Li Xin can hold this place, then his M4 will be a sure thing.
But that’s where the problem lies. The difficulty of defending these three enemies is much more difficult than that of the Dan’an area.
In the Dan'an area, as long as Lu Quan defends the town of Vick, he will be able to defend the city safely.
Unless the enemy is brave enough to come from the wilderness to raid Dan'an's rear and repeat what Li Xin and his men did.
But things are different here now. Here in Li Xin, whether it is the Gaswu Submersible Order, Dewan Technology, or the territory of Nordong Castle, they all have roads and railways leading to the rear.
This way, the enemy has too many directions to choose from for attack.
This is also the main reason why Li Xin did not choose to defend.
After looking at it for a long time, Li Xin said, "These three pieces of land are really easy to attack but difficult to defend!"
Chief of Staff Weng Hua also agreed and said, "Yes!"
"Director, are you really not going to establish a defense line?"
Li Xin waved his hand and said, "What defense do we need? What we want is an offense!"
"How can we defend this rotten place? As long as there's a defense line, it's a target for the enemy!"
As he spoke, Li Xin's eyes kept scanning around, and finally he said, "This isn't a solution either. Report this to the higher-ups!"
"We need reinforcements!"
Weng Hua asked worriedly, "Can we still get support? What kind of support do we need?"
Li Xin said confidently: "Before, Commander Duan promised us to expand the army and add five brigades of garrison troops, but that was before the attack!"
"Now that we've taken over these three territories, the stakes are certainly different."
Weng Hua asked, "Then what support do we need?"
Li Xin said: "We want everything, mecha troops, armored troops."
"Of course, the most important thing is the support of the air defense forces!"
Li Xin raised his head, looked at the sky worriedly, and said, "It would be even better if we could get support from the Air Force."
There were no air force units in these three places before, but that doesn’t mean the enemy will not have air force support when they want to retake them.
Now, relying solely on the mechanized brigade and Yadun's existing air defense forces, it is still possible to attack the enemy's helicopters or ground attack aircraft, but if the enemy really sends a large number of air force units, Li Xin will be in big trouble.
Weng Hua nodded and said, "Boss, I will try my best to get support!"
Li Xin nodded. He still believed in Weng Hua's ability. This guy also had some background.
