"You all go and rest, I'm going to see Anka."
After sending everyone to bed, Xia Yu, as the boss, still had many things to do.
For example, to convince the rebels that they had been tricked, the Anka mechanized infantry battalion had to provide strong support.
"Okay, I'll send two of my best crews tomorrow."
After hearing Xia Yu's plan, Xiao Anka said excitedly.
If he didn't have to stay at the command post, he would have liked to go into the city with the crew.
"Tomorrow isn't the main point; the main point is the day after tomorrow. If we're lucky, we can wipe out two rebel battalions at once."
Xia Yu wasn't just fooling the client; he genuinely thought so.
Of course, to achieve all this, we need a secret weapon that we haven't used yet.
“That’s fantastic. Eliminating the rebels here and completely liberating Bomatou will be a major blow to Panaka.”
It's just that Anka's skin is too dark, otherwise you could definitely see how rosy his complexion is right now.
This is exciting, and it would be just as exciting for anyone else.
“Mr. Huangyou, we must sign a supplementary agreement. If we can really defeat two armored battalions in one fell swoop, you must receive a reward commensurate with your strength.”
Little Anka held Xia Yu's hand and said.
If he were to take the lead himself, he was confident that even with half his tanks lost, he could defeat the Cohen mechanized infantry battalion in urban warfare.
But if he adds another light tank battalion, he can only surround them without attacking, just like he is now, and get stuck in a stalemate with Panaka.
Fortunately, he has his parents to rely on and Xia Yu to depend on.
I just feel like I didn't give enough money, and I feel a little guilty about it.
What a great client! Not only did they not try to lower the price, but they even thought about giving you extra money.
"I'll discuss this in detail when I get back tomorrow. Now, have someone send the car to my place so I can see where we can improve it."
To supplement the agreement, Xia Yu, the shrewd businessman, was generous for once.
He didn't want to break down in the city tomorrow, with free color change and free maintenance.
"Okay, I'll send someone over right away."
Little Anka picked up the walkie-talkie and started calling for help.
Because of Kuhn's presence, the Anka Mechanized Infantry Battalion has night watch teams, which can quickly defend against rebel night attacks.
Sure enough, you work a 9-to-5 job in China, but once you're abroad you're on high alert, right?
"Buzz~~"
Two Weasel A3 armored vehicles drove into a special maintenance tent one after the other.
Xia Yu stretched his hands, preparing to work late into the night.
First, change the car body paint to urban camouflage, then restore both engines to factory settings.
The machine gun didn't move because the two vehicles had already fired hundreds of rounds.
They mainly used machine guns to eliminate the rebel infantry, unlike Xia Yu who was so extravagant, using hundreds of machine gun rounds for a single combat mission.
Similarly, their role tomorrow will be more like simply providing support or putting on a show.
"Commander, where is Miss T?"
The next morning, Hans got up early to make breakfast.
I glanced at the maintenance tent as I passed by and suddenly realized that the company's T-64B1M was gone.
In addition, the same Marder A3 tank has appeared.
"It's a secret. You'll find out tomorrow."
Xia Yu kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal a word.
After breakfast, Kuhn came over with the other two crew members.
"Sergeant, you're also participating in this operation?"
Hans asked with some surprise.
Having served for many years, he has never fought alongside Kuhn except in exercises!
"Of course, but compared to you, I'm just a new recruit now."
Kuhn had always been an instructor, and this was his first time on the battlefield in Bomatou.
He has a lot of theoretical knowledge, but his practical experience is definitely not as good as his younger brother Hans.
“New recruits are good; if they make a few mistakes, it will be more effective in misleading the rebels.”
Xia Yu also joined the conversation.
Last night was just a deception tactic to escape the city; today is the real phase of the deception operation.
"Could you please explain in detail?"
Kuhn took out a pen and notebook; he wanted to thoroughly understand Xia Yu's battle plan.
“In yesterday’s battle, the rebels did not put up much resistance. They set a trap in the city center to lure us in and eat us.”
As Xia Yu spoke, he took out a tablet and pulled up yesterday's aerial photos.
"Three BMP-2s, and ten PT-76Ms in total, numbered 1, 2, 3...?"
The armored units that could pose a threat were all marked on the map, and Kuhn nodded repeatedly as he looked at them.
"I know this tank. It's small and has thin armor, so it can be penetrated by ordinary DM43 ammunition. But its 76mm main gun is a big threat to us."
"So I don't plan to confront it head-on with the weasel. Today's mission is to clear this route and then pretend that the three-vehicle crew is not strong enough and retreat on its own initiative."
Yes, the reason the cycling team was so good before was because the PMC company they hired was powerful.
In addition, our preparations were insufficient.
Today, they replaced the tanks with their own men from the Anka mechanized infantry battalion. The combat effectiveness of the three tank crews is limited, so they will need more men to deliver supplies tomorrow.
Xia Yu had already prepared the rebels psychologically; as long as they started thinking that way, they would definitely fall into the trap of linear thinking.
"I understand. I've compiled a list of common mistakes beginners make. I'll use my car then!"
Kuhn was familiar enough with the weasel's personality that he took on this task voluntarily.
If it were someone else, with one engine repeatedly stalling, they'd probably be terrified on the battlefield.
"Okay, I wouldn't trust anyone else with this."
Xia Yu originally planned to do it himself, but he had other things to do, and having Kuhn help him act out the script would lighten his load considerably.
"Also, this point is very important; my crew will stay nearby for about 20 minutes."
Enlarging the route to be connected, Xia Yu circled several buildings about 1 kilometer away from the stadium.
He had observed yesterday that the rebel forces here were not numerous, making it easy for them to launch a surprise attack.
If the other side sets a trap for them, Xia Yu can also create a new hunting ground.
As for whether the light tank battalion would be unable to resist coming over after suddenly arriving here, he expressed confidence in the rebels' strategic resolve.
They wouldn't give up the chance to wipe out an entire battalion just for one vehicle.
"Okay, I'll draw their fire for you."
"Beware of the rebels' RPGs. Also, they used match missiles last time, so it's possible they'll use them again this time."
Xia Yu continued to remind him.
These unarmored targets are actually quite easy to deal with. As long as you don't give them a chance to fire, a single burst from a machine gun will suffice.
In addition, a three-car formation can better take care of the front and rear.
"Understood, I will be careful."
Kuhn made the last note, closed the notebook, and took a deep breath.
"You flatter me, this is truly my first time fighting in urban areas."
Seeing Xia Yu and Hans looking at him, Kuhn explained with a smile.
"Everyone has a first time. The rebel soldiers are less disciplined than you think. You'll see how rigid they are when they fight."
Xia Yu patted Kuhn on the shoulder to encourage him.
And that's indeed the case. If he were to engage in street fighting in a different region, he wouldn't dare to go on such rampage like that.
Liu Kuhn and his two crew members were given instructions, and Xia Yu also gathered his men together.
"01. Upon arriving in this area, we must get off the bus and walk to this building."
Unless it's a surprise attack, it's best to leave mobile warfare to professional teams.
Once you're out of the protection of a vehicle and facing a hail of bullets on the battlefield, body armor is the last line of defense, and hopefully you'll never need to use it.
