Chapter 108(2/2)

In modern landing operations, aerial assault has become the main means of sending troops, otherwise the Imperial Navy would not have equipped a full 15 amphibious assault ships.

In addition to carrying hovercraft and landing craft, this kind of landing warship can also carry dozens of helicopters to launch landing operations through sea and air assaults.

In short, it is not difficult to let the Marines go to the front line to open up several field airports.

With field airports and enough tactical transport aircraft, replenishing supplies is not difficult.

Even if each order can only carry 24 tons of cargo, only 20 orders can provide the assault troops with the materials needed to maintain a one-day attack.

Of course, if a fierce battle breaks out, dozens of additional rounds of ammunition need to be arranged to transport.

For tactical transport aircraft, not to mention 200 kilometers, even if it starts from King Khalid Military City, the range of about 600 kilometers is not far away. Under normal circumstances, a tactical transport aircraft in good condition can perform four transportation tasks on a 600 kilometers route within 24 hours. If containers are used, or cargo pallets that are easy to load and unload, in theory, it can fly one more order.

Ideally, only 20 "Yun-9Fs" are needed to support 1 reinforced armored battalion.

If the problem of logistics support is solved, there is nothing to worry about.

That's why Liu Zunshan didn't complain.

At less than 2 a.m., after the replaced troops were overtaken, the assault troops retreated from the city and rested on the spot near the front line command center.

In fact, it can be considered as a rest at most.

Until now, the preparations before the attack were included. The officers and soldiers of the assault troops have been fighting for two days, and during this period, they also experienced a sand city storm.

If you want to say it, the threat of the sand city storm is still above the Iraqi army.

Not to mention anything else, many ZT-99AL infrared imagers were damaged in sandstorms and have not been repaired yet.

Of course, the number one problem faced by officers and soldiers is still exhausted.

Many officers and soldiers got off the tank chariots, lying on the side of the road and fell asleep.

Fortunately, they are not fighting alone.

Liu Zunshan was busy until 3 o'clock and was making arrangements, mainly to arrange work for the reinforcements of the logistics support troops, such as repairing damaged instruments and equipment, helping tanks and tanks replenish fuel, wiping the gun barrels for the tanks, and preparing the ammunition needed in advance.

These tasks should have been handled by the officers and soldiers of the combat troops.

Of course, the key is the transport fleet.

Even if you will perform three recharges in the middle, you need to bring enough transport vehicles, such as tankers, to ensure that there is fuel at all times.

Without ammunition, you can also choose to retreat.

If there is no fuel, you will have to be beaten when you meet the position.

Even if Liu Zunshan trusts Ding Zhennan very much, he will leave a way out instead of placing the lives of all the officers and soldiers of the battalion on a promise.

While Liu Zunshan was going to rest, the "Ocamp-2EG" that Ding Zhennan had already returned to Khalid Military City.

On the eastern front, the situation has not improved.

The Marine Corps is still making adjustments. To be precise, several landing ships will go to Daman Port, load them with infantry fighting vehicles and other main combat equipment, and then head to the landing ground located north of Kuwait City.

It takes one or two days to do this.

According to reports sent by the combat troops, the two infantry battalions landed in the north of Kuwait City can launch an attack as soon as possible in the early morning of the 20th.

If something goes wrong during the period, it may be delayed by 12 hours.

Ding Zhennan was helpless in this regard.
