Chapter 590: Defeating the enemy with fewer troops, a beautiful turnaround!
With the support of the Second War Zone, our troops not only surrounded the enemy's 21st Army, but also prepared to annihilate it completely!
It also consumed most of the troops of the 17th Army led by Bartu himself.
This is a classic example of how the outnumbered side won!
"How many enemies have been eliminated so far?" Wu Guofeng asked hurriedly after taking a breath.
"Commander, so far, after almost six hours of fierce fighting, we have wiped out a total of about 150,000 enemies!"
"At present, there are about 21 to remnants of the enemy's st Army. It is estimated that after this battle, we can annihilate enemy troops!"
"That is to say, after a fierce battle, Bartu led the remaining 120,000 troops under his command to escape back to the area outside Mongolia!" After hesitating for a moment, the communicator answered truthfully.
"Can we annihilate 230,000 enemies after this battle?"
"The enemy has a total strength of 350,000, and we have wiped out more than half of them?" Wu Guofeng widened his bloodshot eyes and said in disbelief.
As a ragtag army, he never thought that one day he would win a battle, and a big victory with a smaller force.
Being able to destroy so many enemy troops in one breath has never happened before since the establishment of the 49th Army!
After all, whether it was fighting against the Japanese before or fighting against troops from other countries later.
Their 49th Army would be chased and attacked by the enemy, and they would be in a very miserable state while fleeing!
but now?
Old Wu had fought a brilliant comeback battle, wiping out hundreds of thousands of enemy troops in one go!
Of course, all this is thanks to the help of Commander Yan and the special care of Marshal Qin.
If Commander Yan led the 100,000 elite troops from the Second War Zone to arrive in time, Marshal Qin would have sent a formation of armed helicopters from the Air Force to join the battle and provide powerful firepower support for our troops.
I'm afraid that no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of their 49th Army is, they will not be able to withstand the fierce attack of Bartu's troops on the opposite side, let alone win the battle!
"Yes, Commander!"
"It is no exaggeration to say that with Commander Yan's 49 elite troops and the firepower cover of the armed helicopter formation, this battle really demonstrated the military power and morale of our th Army!"
"I'm afraid that from now on, no one will dare to laugh at our ragtag army!" The communicator paused for a moment and replied slowly.
"Very good, very good, this is exactly the state I need!"
"This time, thanks to Commander Yan and Marshal Qin, they helped our 49th Army to reshape its military spirit!" Wu Guofeng subconsciously glanced at Commander Yan and couldn't help but sigh.
"By the way, Commander Yan, the enemy's 21st Army with to troops is still in a desperate situation. What should we do?" Cao Qun looked at Commander Yan and spoke in a deep voice.
After all, the war had reached this stage, and the 49th Army was exhausted and had suffered heavy losses.
What is urgently needed now is to end this war as soon as possible so that the troops can get timely rest.
What's more, they have not yet allowed the troops to use all the military supplies and weapons and equipment sent by Marshal Qin.
"Commander Cao, don't be anxious. I have a new idea for this battle!" After pondering for a moment, Commander Yan said calmly.
In fact, this battle was able to achieve such an effect, which made Yan Laoxi quite satisfied.
After all, among these two forces, the elite in the Second War Zone still possesses relatively strong combat effectiveness, but the 49th Army is a bit disappointing.
The main reason is that the enemy's weapons and equipment are too poor, and they have not experienced such a large-scale war for such a long time, so they are inevitably a little inexperienced.
If the 49th Army's forces were replaced by any unit of the New First Front Army, Baltu's troops would probably be annihilated.
Leave no one behind!
This is also the biggest difference between the New First Front Army and these local ragtag armies!
"Commander Yan!"
"Do you have any new ideas?" Wu Guofeng asked anxiously after hearing this.
"General Wu, although we have now surrounded the enemy's 70,000 to 80,000 troops, even if we destroy them all, we will only have 230,000 men!"
"Let me ask you one question, do you want to eliminate more enemies?" Commander Yan did not answer the other party's question directly, but asked back.
"Only 230,000 people?"
"Commander Yan, isn't this many people enough?"
Wu Guofeng looked at Commander Yan with a little surprise and couldn't help asking.
For the 49th Army, this joint operation with the Second War Zone was the most rewarding one!
If it had been before, let alone annihilating 230,000 people, he would have felt that even killing 2,000 to 3,000 enemies was an unprecedented victory.
But now, listening to Commander Yan's tone, it seems that he is a bit disdainful of this number?
"Captain Wu, haven't you heard of it?"
"Back then, the New Front Army wiped out 700,000 Japanese soldiers. Such a brilliant record shocked not only us, but also armies all over the world. They thought it must be an incredible miracle!"
"Therefore, we should seize this opportunity this time and use the trapped enemy forces as a trap to attract more troops into our position!"
"By then we will be able to wipe them out in one fell swoop. Wouldn't that be a perfect thing?" Commander Yan shook his head subconsciously and began to analyze.
"Commander Yan!"
"You said that Marshal Qin once wiped out 700,000 Japanese devils. I have indeed heard of this, but he is a marshal, what a powerful figure!"
"Can people like us be compared with him?" Wu Guofeng scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly.
After all, he could only look up to Marshal Qin's brilliant achievements throughout his life.
But I never thought that I would surpass the other person.
After all, Marshal Qin's strength is obvious to all. Looking around the world, there are not many people like him!
"Hahaha, Commander Wu, even though we can't surpass him, we can still catch up with him!"
"Let alone you soldiers, even I, Yan, can only admire Marshal Qin!"
Commander Yan shook his head slowly, his face full of helplessness.
Although Commander Yan is also a well-known figure in the Xia Kingdom, he has a long history and a great reputation.
But when it comes to military achievements or other comprehensive strengths, he thinks he still cannot compare with Marshal Qin.
