Necromancer, summoning 055? What the heck?

Chapter 67 Eastern Xia Tactical Warfare

Chapter 67 Eastern Xia Tactical Warfare
Chief of the General Staff Gu Liyang, dressed in a crisp Dongxia Army uniform, had the stars on his epaulets gleaming slightly under the lights.

To stand out from the competition and reach such an important position, one must be considered a leading figure among the middle generation of the Dongxia military, in terms of background, personality, and ability.

After quickly glancing at the information provided by the veteran coach, he cleared his throat and stood up.

"Everyone, let me share my understanding!"

"I suggest a shift in perspective. The so-called super soldier can be viewed as a heavy tank with extremely strong defense but lacking long-range attack capabilities of the same level. Therefore, the offensive we need to launch on our side should be a small-scale, high-intensity combined arms operation."

You know what, this change really made that awkward feeling much better.

Gu Liyang walked to the large screen and drew a circle with the laser pointer in his hand: "The confirmed information on the other side includes: a large number of infantry, a certain number of armored vehicles, namely the 'squad leader' class mentioned in the intelligence, and uncertain, suspected heavy tanks, namely the 'super soldier' ​​class."

"Based on what the commander-in-chief just said, the battlefield environment is extremely harsh—no satellites, no base stations, no communication support. This means that our most relied-upon precision-guided weapon system is completely ineffective, and we can only use inertial guidance, image recognition, or manual control."

"Finally, the battlefield terrain severely limits tactical options—no flanking maneuvers, no infiltrations, only a frontal assault! Our only advantage is," Chief of Staff Gu tapped on the screen, "that the enemy is completely unaware of our presence and attack intentions, and remains in a routine, small-scale lookout and vigilance state."

"Commander, are there any errors, omissions, or deviations in the above battlefield environment settings?"

Longxiang Zhenyue nodded in satisfaction.

A good execution team is one that can break down and transform the leader's various strange strategic intentions, long-term plans, and sudden ideas into concrete action plans that are easy to understand and can be executed.

After some transformation, the problem became much simpler.

How to take out enemy infantry? How to take out enemy armored vehicles? How to take out any enemy tanks that may be present?
Just as the staff officers were quickly devising a series of operational plans, a young staff officer raised his hand: "Chief of Staff, may I ask whether the weapons we use are subject to international conventions? Can we use biological and chemical weapons, or certain conventional weapons?"

Chief of Staff Gu Liyang immediately looked at the boss sitting at the head of the table.

The old man pondered for a few seconds before giving a resolute answer: "Guarantee the safety of our rear personnel; all weapons may be used."

The chief of staff suddenly realized that this statement should be interpreted in reverse.

If all weapons can be used, it means that the constraints of the Chemical Weapons Convention, the Biological Weapons Convention, the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, and even the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons have been lifted.

Ensuring the safety of personnel in the rear means that the personnel at the front are allowed to be "unsafe"!
The chief of staff almost instantly connected this to the possibility of paving the way for personnel in the rear at all costs.

At this stage of tactical analysis, the difficulty has become extremely low. The biggest challenge lies in the weight of many weapons, which the staff officers cannot accurately assess. As a result, the logistics department had to call in two more technicians.

Several plans were prepared, and finally, the best one was chosen, which was considered to be the most suitable for all parties.

Long Xiang went over the final plan one last time, waved to adjourn the meeting, and then took Gu Liyang to another office at the back of the base. A major general was already standing there waiting. Upon seeing the old marshal arrive, he quickly stood up and saluted.

"Xiao Gu, this is a comrade from the equipment department. You are more familiar with the plan. Immediately, according to these requirements, have the equipment department prepare a complete set of matching weapons. They will cooperate with your requirements unconditionally. The sooner the better!"

The chief of staff was in turmoil, but in the end he didn't dare to ask a single question.

"Yes, sir! We will complete the mission without hesitation!"

The efficiency of "Industrial Cthulhu" is naturally trustworthy.

After a period of agonizing waiting, Chen Mo of the Starry Continent finally received feedback from the "God of Industrial Cthulhu." There was no bone dragon, and Princess Liushuang's face was filled with undisguised disappointment.

Of course, she would be even more disappointed later, because Chen Mo's promised "endorsement artifact" would have to wait until the next summon.

The largest weight portion of this mission was carried by three specially designed "Big Head Eagle" loitering munitions.

Chen Mo looked at the instruction manual in silence. This behemoth, weighing 23 kilograms, could ascend to an altitude of 2,500 meters without a launch pad, and had a maximum loitering time of about 25 minutes.

Once the target is locked and the attack is launched, the terminal dive speed can reach 180 meters per second.

To ensure the lethality of the "Big Head Eagle," the war engineers of the Eastern Xia Equipment Department went to extreme lengths—they stuffed three layers of greetings into the warhead of this loitering munition, which had a limited weight capacity.

High-explosive thermobaric bombs, white phosphorus incendiary bombs, nerve gas bombs!

If that's thrown, even the Elf's [Eternal Song] and the Healer's [Hymn] won't be able to bring it back.

To ensure the device could hit its target accurately, the Dongxia Equipment Department sent a medium-sized intelligent gimbal, on which were mounted four miniature reconnaissance drones, each weighing 1.8 kilograms, and three handheld terminals.

The reconnaissance drones, loitering munitions, gimbals, and handheld terminals have already completed partial networking in advance. With the forward guidance of the reconnaissance drones, the loitering munitions can be accurately located and the attack targets can be indicated.

If all reconnaissance drones are destroyed or rendered inoperable, loitering munitions can still be operated remotely via visual screen and handheld terminal to launch attacks.

This remote violent strike system alone consumes 80% of the transmission weight.

Then there were two rifles, one heavy and one light. The heavy one was an anti-material rifle, which was intended to take out any potential "tank" type soldiers on the other side. It was equipped with tungsten-core armor-piercing rounds.

The lighter option is a lightweight sniper rifle, used to shoot enemy scouts or deserters from a distance.

Finally, a batch of various grenades were added, along with two gas masks, completely filling the remaining weight.

The weapon style emphasizes high power, ease of operation, and quick kills without requiring much logistical support.

After just one look at the weapons, Chen Mo had already filled in the complete attack tactics in his mind. Of course, the execution plan provided by Dongxia was extremely detailed.

After a brief discussion and rehearsal, on a dark and stormy night, Yunwu led the team in launching the raid.

A gentle breeze swept across the mountainside, rustling the trees and masking the subtle movements within the forest. On the watchtower, the sentries of Wangshan City were still diligently on guard, but they could not detect the eye hanging high in the sky above them.

A soft whooshing sound rang out as two [Big Eagle] loitering munitions swooped down from an altitude of two thousand meters, targeting two locations within the clustered tents to ensure the blast radius completely covered the entire barracks.

Just in case, the last loitering munition is also hovering in the air, ready to be deployed.

"boom--!!!"

With a dull, heart-stopping thud, two orange-red fireballs, almost simultaneously expanding from the point of impact, instantly engulfed the tents in the camp.
