Doomsday Commander

Chapter 329 Man-made Flood

　　Ti Cui Island.

Tang Zheng was in the official residence, looking at the report sent from below.

 The report was prepared by the combat command center. Its main content is how to conduct a defensive operation.

This is almost impossible to do. The opponent's two front armies are advancing steadily, and neither one is so easy to deal with. Although the Light Chasing Army has strong combat power, it is still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. If the battle starts in the wild plains, I am afraid the result will not be good. It would be great.

Tang Zheng couldn't count on anyone else at the moment. Li Wuyou had already tried his best. The battle in the Jialing Mountains was very fierce. Multinational troops had deployed their defenses early to wait for work. The Royal Guards' casualties were also considerable.

The tug-of-war in the Jialing Mountains may have reached a later stage when the Royal Guards were able to achieve a breakthrough, but it would not be over in a short time. Tang Zheng estimated that this battle would not be completed within a month or two.

 So at this time, Tang Zheng could only rely on himself.

The report produced by the combat command center is not without details. It almost maximizes the use of various arms of the Zhuguang Army, Navy, Army and Air Force.

 The main point is that they plan to rely on the Haojiang River Basin as a defensive line to resist the incoming multinational forces.

 But Tang Zheng always felt that this method was not very good.

If the time goes back three months, there is no problem with this method, because at that time, everyone did not have many missiles, and it was indeed possible to rely on Haojiang defense.

 But it won’t work now. Nowadays, missiles, rocket launchers, and howitzers have begun to be deployed in various units. If the opponent’s artillery is installed on the other side, it will pose a threat to Didui Island.

And try not to fight the war at home. Fighting here will hurt the headquarters the most in the end. Tang Zheng did not want the hard-won peace on Didui Island to be destroyed like this.

But if you don’t fight at your doorstep, then where should you fight?

The opponent's troops advanced along the plains, moving steadily step by step. It was no longer feasible to conduct another air attack.

In addition, there are 300,000 people on Tian Mingfei's side, advancing along the Haojiang River. This is also a problem that has to be faced.

Tang Zheng must allocate part of his existing troops to fight against Tian Mingfei's troops.

However, in Tang Zheng's view, the threat from Tian Mingfei's troops was not very great. He could use the advantages of the navy to continuously penetrate the Haojiang waterway, send small groups of troops to repeatedly sneak attacks, interfere with the opponent's march, and seek local operations.

 After all, Tian Mingfei's river navy still cannot compare with his own navy.

 The main problem is still the arrival of the Three Kingdoms Alliance troops from the north, which is a serious concern.

Standing in front of the landform map near Didui Island, Tang Zheng thought repeatedly.

If we can stop the opponent's march and avoid fighting on the plains, then this battle can still be fought.

 But how to make them stop?

 After looking at the map for a while, Tang Zheng's eyes fell on a line.

This is the dividing line between the north and the south of the Han Yue Empire, from Yunling to Luoshui.

 The north of this line is defined as the northern region of the Han month, and the south is the southern region.

The Luoshui River passes through the southern part of Dongyue Province and the northern part of Bulk Province. It is a river that often floods.

 The situation this year is similar. There has been more rain since the end of the world. Now it is the turn of spring and summer, the amount of rain is not small, and the river is showing signs of flooding again.

Chen Hongchang also sent people to manage the river and invested a lot of manpower and material resources. The situation is considered stable for the time being.

 After watching it for a while, Tang Zheng had an idea in his mind.

 That is to blow up the Luoshui embankment and cause a man-made flood.

As long as the Luoshui River floods, the northern region of Bulk Province and the southern region of Dongyue will become a vast country.

 There is no doubt that it is impossible to march in such a place.

As a result, the multinational force has only two options.

One route is to transfer by sea, bypass this flooded area, and land in the southern part of the Bulk Province.

At this time, Tang Zheng's naval superiority was revealed. With the current capabilities of the multinational navy, it would be difficult to pass the naval blockade of the Light-Zhui Army, so this road was blocked.

 The second way is to move westward and pass through the Yunling Mountains.

In this way, the Light Chasing Army can avoid the plains and have a good time with multinational forces in Yunling.

After coming up with this idea, Tang Zheng almost immediately made the decision to do it.

 Actually, this is not a good idea. If the Luoshui embankment is blown up, the surrounding area will become a vast ocean for thousands of miles. This will be a disaster for the people in the nearby base city.

Especially now that it is the spring plowing season, many people have begun to farm. If this is done, this year's harvest will be gone, and famine may break out in this area in the future.

 In the long run, this matter will have many disadvantages, but at the moment Tang Zheng can't care about so many.

He has been harvesting everywhere for so long, and he still has a lot of food in his hands. As long as he wins this battle, he can take the initiative to provide disaster relief and save the people. But this battle must be won, otherwise there will be no need to talk about the future.

The march of the multinational force has just begun, and there is still not enough time.

Tang Zheng directly scrapped the defense plan drawn up by the combat command center and issued an order instead. Two field regiments of the Zhuguang Army, three armored battalions, three artillery battalions, as well as the Army Aviation Regiment and a large number of engineering troops immediately set off and entered the Yunling Mountains to set up defenses.

There are two field regiments over there in Zhuguang City, and the fifth regiment is currently stationed at the military base.

Tang Zheng thought about it, transferred the third and fifth regiments over, and immediately headed towards the Yunling Mountains to join the large army as soon as possible.

As for Zhuguang City, it is defended by three battalions of the First City Guard Regiment and the Fourth Field Regiment.

The two battalions of the Fourth Field Regiment went to the military camp base to cooperate with part of the troops of the Second City Guard Regiment in defense.

Although it is a little thin, the situation there is still stable for the time being, and there should be no big problems in the short term.

 At the same time, he also upgraded the direct-affiliated battalion to a directly-affiliated regiment on the spot, with the total number of the regiment reaching 15,000.

This unit also followed the large army into Yunling to ensure sufficient strength.

After the air attack on the Triton City naval port, Tang Zheng's funds dropped to 48 million. The missiles in that battle consumed a lot of funds.

Fortunately, Didui Island has a large population, and people continue to exchange jewelry for light yuan, which also supplements the money given to Tang Zheng. Now that the direct-affiliated regiment has been fully staffed, he still has 50 million in funds.

After adding the direct regiments, the total number of Tang Zheng's light-chasing army came to 190,000, and the last 10,000 people were left to reach the full strength of the entire brigade.

This time, Tang Zheng also invested a large number of troops in the Yunling area.

 There are a total of four field regiments, one directly affiliated regiment, one army aviation regiment, three tank battalions, three artillery battalions, three engineer battalions, and the aviation regiment must also cooperate with each other.

 A total of 100,000 troops entered Yunling and were about to have a showdown with the multinational coalition forces.

This march was carried out in secret. No outsiders knew about this march except those within the Light Chasing Army.

Tang Zheng will take advantage of this period to build some defenses in Yunling to resist multinational forces.

 It would take some time to build the fortifications, so Tang Zheng came up with a way to buy time.

The two aircraft carrier battle groups in the Atlantic Ocean, under the order of Tang Zheng, began to harass the march of multinational troops.

Marine Corps members on the aircraft carrier battle group began to take advantage of the navy, frequently landing in coastal areas, and then raiding the multinational forces.

They used their flexible mobility and powerful combat effectiveness to start sneak attacks on the enemy's reconnaissance troops and logistics troops.

 When the enemy's reconnaissance troops encounter the Marine Corps of the Light Chaser Army, they are basically crushed.

 Marine Corps soldiers drove all-terrain vehicles and fought guerrilla warfare in the wilderness.

During their first sneak attack, the First Aircraft Carrier Battle Group gathered 2,000 Marines and wiped out a logistics supply convoy of the Tiger Empire in one fell swoop, killing more than 1,500 people and destroying two military supplies. storehouse.

The Second Aircraft Carrier Battle Group was not to be outdone. They raided Orochi's reconnaissance force, a thousand Marines, and met two of the opponent's reconnaissance companies head-on. A fierce battle broke out in an abandoned town.

The battle lasted for more than two hours. After paying a certain price, the Marines successfully captured the building area guarded by the opponent and wiped out two of the opponent's companies before enemy reinforcements arrived.

 These were two major battles in the early stage. Although they did not damage the enemy's fundamentals, they greatly damaged the enemy's morale and slowed down their marching speed.

They frequently take advantage of the vast coastline to carry out operations, regardless of day or night. They will appear wherever there is an opportunity.

The inland river fleet of the Light Chasing Army also joined this battle. They constantly used the river channels to make detours and strike at the enemy.

Such harassment and attacks day and night have troubled multinational forces.

 Chen Hongchang did not establish an inland river navy, and now the navy has been completely wiped out. The light-seeking army that is constantly moving on the water has no choice but to take one step at a time, constantly observe the enemy's situation, and focus on protecting logistics.

Those Light-Chasing Army are too cunning. Whenever they set a trap and want to annihilate the Light-Chasing Army's sneak attack troops with their heavy force, the other party will not come.

Whenever a flaw is revealed, they are like flies that smell blood and immediately swarm up.

There is no way around this. The Light Chasing Army not only has a radar system, but also a large number of war eagles. If they are not careful, a bird passing by in the sky will expose their marching situation.

 In this way, the multinational forces were exhausted and marched hard.

Originally we planned to arrive at Didui Island in ten days, but ended up walking for half a month before we reached the northern part of Bulk Province.

Just when the multinational forces breathed a sigh of relief and thought that the situation would improve after crossing the Luoshui River, something happened that caused their collapse.

That night, the Light-Chasing Army Aviation Regiment dispatched hundreds of fighter planes to bombard the Luoshui Dam with missiles!

 From east to west, thousands of miles away, there are many Luoshui rivers reaching the end of the embankment!

It is already the rainy season, the weather has never been sunny, and Luoshui has already accumulated a huge amount of water.

After being bombarded by the Light Chasing Army, the roaring river could no longer be controlled.

 The flood rushed out from the breach and spread unbridled in all directions, turning thousands of miles in radius into a vast ocean!
