In short, we didn't suffer any loss.

After all, we are playing at home, and most areas have radar support, so it is not easy to suffer losses.

Ganquan is the highlight.

"Report to the East University Command Center, our unit has ended the battle!"

Long Jian's clear voice came from the phone, with a bit of excitement.

"According to statistics, 791 enemies were killed and 336 prisoners were captured, for a total of 1,127 enemies!"

"Among the captured prisoners, there are 162 seriously wounded."

"Eighty-seven of our men were killed and fifty were seriously injured!"

"Okay, good fight!"

Deputy Chief of Staff Xiao answered loudly.

"Comrade Long Jian, on behalf of the command center and the military region, I extend my warmest congratulations to you. I also express my deepest condolences to our fallen comrades and my sincere sympathy to the injured!"

Afterwards, Yu Donghai took the call and expressed high recognition and praise for Long Jian and the Special Operations Brigade.

Only Liu Hongyi felt a little heavy-hearted. Seeing this, Yu Donghai said to Liu Hongyi very considerately, "Hongyi, do you have anything to say to Long Jian?"

In fact, Liu Hongyi was the real commander in this war, and he played an even greater role than Deputy Chief of Staff Xiao.

The radar command center is under his direct command.

All major operations on the battlefield must be directed according to real-time information fed back by radar.

Despite this, at this time, Yu Donghai was able to hand him the microphone, which shows how much the old general "favors" him.

"Brigade Commander Long, I'd like to know the main reasons for the sacrifice of our comrades."

Liu Hongyi was not polite. He took the microphone and asked directly.

According to common sense, annihilating more than 1,100 enemies and suffering more than 100 casualties on our side is definitely a great victory, and a crushing one.

But Liu Hongyi didn't think so.

This battle should have been a crushing victory. The battlefield was one-way transparent, with twice the troops and three times the firepower. It was a home battle, an ambush, and an elite special operations brigade with extremely rich combat experience. Yet, eighty-seven people were sacrificed and fifty were seriously injured.

"Sniper!"

Long Jian answered without hesitation.

"We captured a lot of Mao-made sniper rifles, SVDs, on the battlefield!"

"This time, the Anlang people have invested heavily. They have sent out mostly experienced veterans, and the number of snipers is far beyond the normal number."

Liu Hongyi's expression became even more serious.

The Mao-made SVD is a model of squad sniper rifle and is famous all over the world.

It has much better sniping performance than the 56.5mm rifle commonly equipped by our army.

The Type 79 sniper rifle, which our army recently equipped in small batches, is an imitation of the SVD. Its development began in 79 and small-scale production just started this year. Special operations brigades are currently not equipped with many of them.

The key is that the Type 79 does not use special sniper ammunition, but Type 53 machine gun bullets, which has a greater impact on shooting accuracy. In terms of performance, it is far inferior to the genuine SVD.

"Honestly, Researcher Liu, if we didn't have such an absolute advantage in firepower and the 35mm howitzer could achieve accurate fire within meters, I'm afraid the casualties would be even greater."

Long Jian said frankly.

"However, Researcher Liu, you don't have to worry. There aren't many elite snipers like this, even in the Anlang Army. This time, they should have mobilized all the elite snipers from other directions to the Ganquan area."

"This defeat is absolutely devastating for the Anlang people. Such elite veterans, especially excellent snipers, cannot be replenished in a short period of time."

As a special warfare expert, Long Jian has reasons to say so.

The Southern Military Region's special operations forces have been established for over a year. Although the force has reached its "maximum size" of 5,000 personnel, there are only a few hundred truly battle-hardened and elite special forces soldiers among them.
