In the headquarters, Lin Rui, the actuary General Kishi was holding a meeting with a group of Anmore officers.

"Gentlemen, I believe that everyone already knows the news of the loss of the South Bank position.

However, due to the outstanding performance of the fraternal troops on the south bank, it also created quite precious time for us. Lin Rui looked at the officers. "I want to know the current defense of the North Shore fortress group, how is the organization progressing?" "

"Mr. Rick, the North Shore fortress group has always been one of our strongest lines of defense. During this period of time, we have focused on strengthening the original line of defense.

In addition, in terms of logistics, whether it is ammunition, food, or other material reserves. The North Shore fortress group has been fully prepared. Now we can say that the soldiers have enough food. ' replied an Anmore officer, standing up.

"Very well, I have briefly checked the defense points before, and I also think that you have done a good job in this regard.

I am afraid that what we have to face is not just the simple matter of defending the North Shore fortress group.

Like you said, the North Shore Fortresses are one of Anmore's strongest lines of defense. Not only do we think so, the Orumi Federation Army also thinks so.

Therefore, we believe that the offensive of the Orumi Federation Army is likely to try to bypass the North Shore fortress group. The head-to-head style of play was too great a loss for them, which they had already suffered in the South Bank position. "Lin Rui nodded.

"Bypass the North Shore Fortress?" These officers were all very strange. "But Ellesmere Port is an important town on the north bank of the Kem River. The North Bank fortress group is built on Ellesmere Port.

They don't necessarily give up Ellesmere Harbour and attack elsewhere? "

"It's not impossible. And if they choose to do it, it would be a very dangerous signal for our military.

Because everyone understands that most of our troops are now concentrated in Pinestone, Cloverfield, and Myrtle.

These three areas form a solid defensive triangle. On the other side is the Kem River line of defense.

The above areas account for nearly 70% of our troops. In other words, we are currently relatively empty behind.

Once they bypassed the north bank of the Kem River and drove straight north through this gap. Then they will go straight to the city of Anmore. ' explained the actuary, Kishi.

"If they want to do this, then we will launch an offensive in their rear. Cut off their back." An Anmore officer said.

"It's just your unilateral idea. Once they do bypass the North Shore defense line, if you want to take action and attack them, you have to leave the defense system of the fortress group and be forced to fight the enemy in the field.

It is equivalent to giving up, the original defensive advantage. And with the combat capability of the Orumi Federation Army, they only need a small number of troops to block your attack. Their large force will push all the way north.

Enter the most weakly defended center of the northern coalition in Anmore. " Lin Rui replied.

"From our experience with the Orumi Federation Army many times. Every time we can gain the upper hand, it is a defensive battle without exception.

Because in combat, the defender has a natural advantage. The advantage of defense is that it can use relatively few resources to fight the war. Generally speaking, the attacker must have at least two-thirds more troops than the defender to attack.

Therefore, if the defender arranges it properly, it can kill and injure the enemy in large quantities, destroy the fighting spirit of the attacker, and then counterattack. That is to say, it is impossible to win a war simply by relying on defense. That is called passive defense, and it does not play a very good role in boosting morale.

However, defense is generally used when the relative strength is weak or when the enemy is blocked. A good defense can buy time and ensure subsequent attacks. There is a certain gap in strength between us and the Orumi Federation Army.

So in battle, to win, there are only two possibilities. One is the surprise attack, which is unprepared. And the other is to play defensive counterattacks.

Deplete the enemy's vitality through defense, and find the right time to counterattack. Just like we did on the South Bank before. "Lin Rui explained.

"But this seems a bit contradictory. On the one hand, we must rely on fortifications to conduct defensive operations and try to avoid field battles with the enemy.

On the other hand, the enemy is trying to circumvent our lines of defense. If we want to stop the enemy, we have to leave the coastal fortress group and stop the enemy.

But in this way, it is equivalent to abandoning the defensive position and taking the initiative to conduct field battles with the enemy. "A Anmore officer really can't figure it out.

"You're right, there is indeed a contradiction here. That's why we held a meeting here to try to resolve this contradiction. Actuary..." Lin Rui gestured to the actuary Jiangan.

The actuary turned the shore on to the projector, “Ellesmere Bridge. This railway bridge was built in 1986.

During the First Anmor War, there were fears that the Oromi Federation Army would use the bridge to attack the Anmore hinterland.

General Logan personally ordered the destruction of the bridge. Since then, as the only bridge over the Kem River, it has been abandoned.

Now because we have destroyed the Olumi Federation army's boat bridge unit, their vehicle baggage cannot cross the river at all.

And rebuilding the bridge is the only way they can quickly cross the Kem River. "

"Ellesmere Bridge... It's only 7 kilometers away from us." An Anmore officer was suddenly surprised.

The actuary replied to Kishi, "So what we have to do now is to delay and delay our enemy as much as possible to prolong their bridge repair work as much as possible.

At the same time we have to prepare, once the enemy's bridge is repaired, we will undertake the hardest blocking battle. "

"And we can now confirm that if the enemy plans to repair the bridge, they will definitely send a force to occupy the other side of the bridge first.

Because they want to speed up the progress and repair from both sides to the middle, the speed will be much faster. The bridge was originally a railway bridge, basically a metal structure.

Although it was seriously damaged and the main body of the bridge is no longer there, the piers left on the river are still there. The Orumi Federal Army is likely to use steel beam welding and other methods. Convert this railway bridge into a temporary bridge.

Quick restoration to traffic by laying steel beams and slabs. But for them to do all this, they must first send a force across the river and establish a defensive position on the north bank of the river. to defend against our attack. " Lin Rui replied.

"If this is the case, then their defensive position is almost certainly the northern section of Ellesmere Bridge." An Anmore officer nodded.

"That's why I demand that I immediately find a way to monitor the area. Once anything happens, the command must be notified immediately." Lin Rui nodded.
