Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 834 Kenyan reinforcements arrive

Less than two hours have passed since the Meru defensive battle. A large area of ​​the city has fallen under the control of the Red Police Corps. The small groups of Kenyan soldiers who stubbornly resist in the occupied area are also being cleaned up by terrorist robots in an orderly manner. .````

In the Meru Defense Command, Lions paced back and forth with a serious face. As the gunfire approached, there was no need to report at all. He also understood the speed at which the battle situation deteriorated.

"Report to the commander, the defender of Maua sent a message that the Somali troops have occupied the entire city and the way is blocked. It is expected that they will be able to resist for half an hour and request support."

"Tell Maua's defenders that our task is to hold on to the three cities for at least three hours. Three hours later, reinforcements will come. Let them continue to hold on for an hour anyway." Lions kept ordering. Tao.

"Report, Isi Garrison Command sent a telegram for help."

"Respond to the order, we don't have a single soldier to support them." Lines stopped and emphasized.

Just as Lions' order was conveyed, the sound of falling to the ground suddenly came from the door. Without any hesitation, he pulled up Kabuqi, who was studying the map next to him, and ran directly towards the other back door of the headquarters.

Just as he ran into the back door, suddenly a few flashes flew in. After a slight sound, the strong light made a staff officer inside hide his face and howl.

Hearing the sound behind him, Lions, who ran into the secret passage, took out the detonator in his pocket without hesitation and pressed it casually.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sounded from behind, and the headquarters behind him collapsed directly under the powerful explosion.The falling stone also blocked the secret door.After detonating the bomb, Lions did not look back.Continue to run towards the front of the passage.

Outside the headquarters, six were wearing camouflage tights.After looking at the command headquarters that collapsed after the explosion, the special forces wearing the information digital helmets asked someone aloud: "Did you throw the wrong bomb? Grandma managed to find the opponent's headquarters? This happened. "

In response to him, everyone shook their heads firmly. None of them were newbies. How could they throw the explosive grenade as a shock bomb?

"It's not the result of our photo. It seems that we were too careless. The other party had obviously placed explosives in advance." One of them walked to the collapsed ruins and took a look.Continued: "The amount of explosives is obviously carefully calculated. I am afraid that the important people inside have already gone. There must be a way out."

"How dare you be so sure?"

"If the other party wants to die with us, then we are dead early. Obviously they are just to stop us from moving forward, while blowing up the equipment inside and destroying the evidence." The special soldier who spoke before touched the side without even a crack. On the wall, he said: "We just posted on this wall just now, with a little more explosives. We are also buried."

"In that case, the other party is really careful calculation." After feeling a sentence, the team leader waved his hand and ordered: "The decapitation operation failed. Notify the headquarters and continue to collect all suspicious electronic signals."

A group of people quickly emerged from an ordinary residential building, and disappeared into the streets of the city.

At the same time.Lions and Kabuqi also followed the underground passage to an underground warehouse with a large amount of ammunition, but now there are not many weapons in this warehouse.

"The commander is really a god. How do you know that the other party will rush over to our headquarters?" Kabuqi asked immediately after stopping in the arsenal for a while.

"The reason is very simple. This is a trick commonly used by the Somali army. They have used it many times in the Ethiopian battlefield and the Vietnamese battlefield. The effect is very good. And the radio station of our headquarters will attract them. Unfortunately, I can't die now. Otherwise, there should be a little more explosives." Lions regretted. He hadn't hesitated since hearing the sound of falling to the ground and the feeling of danger engulfing his body.

Kabuqi nodded, he had always been confident of his old officer.After a brief rest, the two opened a secret door of the arsenal, and soon they came to another underground command post.

A dozen staff and staff members were debugging the equipment. When Lions came in, someone stepped forward and reported: "Report to the commander, the backup command has been successfully activated, and just received a secret telegram from the Ministry of Defense."

"Read..."

"The reinforcements will arrive in half an hour, please make arrangements."

Lions exhaled, and the whole person seemed to be relieved a lot, and then ordered: "Let the reserve forces set off, half an hour later, pinch the enemy forces behind us, and bring in reinforcements."

Hearing this command, Kabuqi frowned slightly, and asked inexplicably: "Why not just destroy the enemy behind us?"

Lins shook his head altogether after hearing the words, and said: "There is no way to eliminate it. The encounter will start soon. Instead of fighting the Somali armored forces on the grasslands, it is better to buy more time in the city."

This is a very negative tactic, but Lions has no better choice. Having lost air supremacy, he can only rely on the urban environment to let the main combat force avoid the enemy's air superiority as much as possible.

This is also the original plan. The core of the Kenyan army's combat is to continuously consume Somalia's forces in urban street fighting and drag the opponent's offensive.

There is only one reason for choosing this tactic. The Kenyan side does not have enough strength to conduct a large-scale decisive battle with the Somali forces. Even if it is a reinforcement composed of all NATO-standard equipment, the Kenyan army cannot play a large-scale decisive battle.

The core of this war is to block the invasion of Somalia, so all tactical purposes need to be considered at the core of the war. Urban street fighting is the battle that can bridge the gap between the two sides. Lynes has no more options.

"I am afraid there is no way even if there is no decisive battle. The Somalis have long known about the reinforcements, and they have set up a position behind us. Can reinforcements come in?" Kabuqi asked rhetorically.

"I believe it can, and the Department of Defense is fully prepared for this." Lanes said.

At the same time, the invader fighter-bombers of the two squadrons quickly flew towards the road from Nairobi to Meru. Their mission was simple, bombing reinforcements from Nairobi.

However, before the aircraft group arrived on the battlefield, the early warning aircraft sent an emergency message to the aircraft group and found that the enemy’s fuselage was shadowed. Since they were performing ground attack missions, the intruder fighter-bombers of the two squadrons only carried a routine air-to-air missile. There is no ability to actively participate in air combat.

As a last resort, the fleet can only return first, and the early warning aircraft also immediately mobilized the surrounding air-control fighter fleet to go to the airspace where the enemy aircraft was found to intercept these enemies.

In Nanyuki, less than 20 kilometers from Meru, a large number of tanks rushed through the city, and soon encountered the paratroopers of the Red Police Corps and the mechanized infantry brigade.

The same is true for the other three directions. The supporting troops formed three arrows and advanced towards the three cities, and the encounters began.

However, for the Red Police Corps, this encounter was uncomfortable because they were not facing outdated weapons in the Kenyan army, but world-class main combat weapons.

At the beginning of the encounter, the advantage of the Red Police Corps was completely suppressed. The Mechanized Infantry Brigade sent three tank battalions to three directions, each with a tank battalion of 32 Rhino tanks.

However, the Rhino tank is not capable of resisting the 60-ton m1a2 main battle tank, and the paratrooper brigade’s weapons and equipment are also lightly armored, and it is also incapable of dealing with these behemoths.

Individual anti-tank weapons cannot stop the footsteps of these behemoths.In addition, the defenders in the three cities also went out of the city to fight, so that the hindering troops were back to the enemy.

Knowing this situation, the Somali Supreme Command ordered the paratrooper brigade and mechanized infantry brigade to let go of the reinforcements.After ten minutes, this piece of reinforcements quickly entered the three major cities.

In fact, the order for letting go of the reinforcements was personally issued by Li Lan. Instead of letting his lightly armed forces and the opposing party's heavily armed forces smash, it is better to put them on the front.Of course, the main point is that the Red Police Corps has taken the initiative in the battle for the city and has various advantages.

On the plains, the heavy units could not arrive quickly, and the air force combat units also went to intercept the enemy planes. There was not enough effective means to eliminate the enemy's heavy units outside the city.

At this moment, Li Lan was sitting on the console, watching the images transmitted by the frontline troops. In the clear film and television images, the figures of Leclerc, Challenger 2, and m1a2 tanks were clearly presented in front of Li Lan.

"No Leopard tank was found?" Li Lan asked a certain show.

"Up to now, no German weapons have been discovered, but the Merkava main battle tank appeared in Nairobi." Natasha replied.

"Quiet German, restless Jew." Li Lan murmured.

"Commander, do you want to send a bomber fleet or a missile force to strike deep targets in Kenya and destroy Kenya's weapons sources?" Natasha asked.

"No need." Li Lan shook his head very abnormally and looked at the film and television footage in front of him. He confidently said: "Without a sound military system, these supported weapons and equipment, Kenyans can only exert limited combat effectiveness. Let the troops practice their hands and get familiar with our real opponents."

Speaking of this, Li Lan changed his voice and ordered: "However, we can't let the other side comfortably receive the weapons and equipment here, order the amphibious combat group to launch the attack according to the original plan. Inform the Air Force that it must be in full control today. Kenya’s air supremacy, I don’t want to see Kenya still have fighters that can take off."
