Chapter 1101 Conflict breaks out(1/2)
Just when Wang Ye, Shao Yigu and others were busy preparing to spend a sleepless night, the South Ossetia area was already under fire!
Using more people to defeat fewer people, and using intentionality to defeat unintentional forces, the GRU troops advanced very smoothly. The offensive launched in the early morning, and by the time it was still dark, they had captured nearly half of the South Ossetia area.
Tskhinvali, the capital of Ossetia.
Tskhinvali was already in chaos. Although they had been notified earlier that troops on the GRU side were gathering and might launch an attack on South Ossetia, they were also prepared.
After all, there is a huge disparity in strength. In the past, when Gru's side was fighting a small battle and only sent a small group of troops to attack, the local armed forces in South Ossetia were still able to resist.
But this time the situation is different. The GRU side is simply out in force. All the troops have been sent over. All the moving armored vehicles, planes, tanks and so on have also come over. South Ossetia will not be able to resist it.
Because of this, they were defeated one after another.
The regional leaders of South Ossetia will be like ants on a hot pot, anxious. All their hopes are pinned on Da Mao. If Da Mao is unwilling to take action, then things will be serious...
"How's it going? Is there any reply from Moscow? What did they say?"
In the government building in the capital, Tskhinvaline, the lights were brightly lit, and several senior officials gathered in the large conference room, anxiously waiting for news from Moscow.
"Not yet. This incident happened suddenly. The Kremlin went to attend the Olympic opening ceremony again. They also have to convene high-level officials for discussions at short notice. It won't be so fast. But I guess there will be news soon, because it is impossible for Moscow to see it.
Our South Ossetia was occupied by Gru."
"Hey, it's hard to say. This time the GRU state brazenly invaded our South Ossetia. If there is no one behind it, then I don't believe it. Does Moscow dare to offend the people behind GRU? I'm skeptical.
So we’d better make plans early.”
"Nonsense! Moscow has always treated us well. As far as I know, the North Caucasus Military Region has many elite troops. Maybe they have sent troops to support us..."
There was a lot of chatter in the conference room, and everyone was talking about anything.
Some people feel that this time the situation is at stake, and Da Mao will probably not take action. They should think of a way out early, because if they delay for a few hours, Gru's troops may be able to reach the capital.
Others have full confidence in Da Mao, firmly believe that they will not be given up, and just wait for rescue with peace of mind.
Despite the fact that Gru's troops are now coming in force and are unstoppable, as long as the elite troops of Mao's North Caucasus Military Region attack, they can immediately drive Gru's troops back to their hometown!
At this moment, Shao Yigu called.
The conference room immediately became silent. After the governor of South Ossetia and Shao Yigu spoke on the phone, everyone's expressions were surprised and happy.
Of course, the surprise was that Da Mao did not plan to end the situation personally this time. The joy was that although Da Mao did not intend to end the situation personally, he did not sit idly by and ignored it. Instead, he arranged everything, even how to deal with the aftermath after driving away the Gru troops.
Planned.
Hearing this, we know that Moscow still takes South Ossetia seriously and takes it very seriously!
The only worry everyone has now is that the Wagner Security Company is really capable of defeating Gru's regular army...
Although GRU is not a big country, and its troops are only about 20,000, but they are still tens of thousands, and they are still regular troops. Is a security company like Wagner really capable of fighting with regular troops?
Everyone discussed again, and in the end the governor was more knowledgeable and understood Wagner's true strength better.
He made a final decision: "Since Moscow dares to arrange this, it means there is absolutely no problem.
I know something about the Wagner Company. It is said that it has become the king of Africa, controlling many regions and tribes, and is very powerful!
Besides, if Wagner really couldn't defeat Gru's army, he would still need the elite troops of the North Caucasus Military Region. Then they wouldn't stand idly by.
At the very least, Wagner's strength is stronger than ours. They can support us, stop the advance of the Gru troops, and alleviate our crisis situation.
Now everyone, don't wait here, go do your own thing.
It may take some time for Wagner's people to come over, and this blank period is the most dangerous!
We have to rely on our own strength to resist the Gru army, but before Wagner's people arrived, our entire territory fell. Wouldn't that be a big joke..."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Indeed, South Ossetia's performance was indeed a bit ugly this time when faced with the GRU army's attack.
It was basically defeated in one blow, with no decent resistance at all.
However, this cannot be entirely blamed on South Ossetia's lack of strength. After all, it is just an autonomous prefecture with a population of only a few hundred thousand. The local armed forces are also very weak and the weapons and equipment are also very backward.
In the past, it was just that GRU was not determined to use force to solve the problem, so some minor conflicts were not strong enough, so South Ossetia was able to persist until now.
But once GRU makes up its mind and becomes ruthless, South Ossetia will indeed not be able to resist with its own strength.
Now the people in South Ossetia have no hope of repelling or defeating Gru's army. As long as they can keep the capital and hold on until reinforcements arrive, that will be the greatest victory!
…………
Tonight, not only did Moscow have a sleepless night, South Ossetia was even more "busy".
If you look down from a high altitude, you can see a long "fire dragon" advancing rapidly towards the capital of South Ossetia. There is almost no decent resistance encountered along the way, just a sporadic burst of gunfire. It's completely
Can't stop the fire dragon from advancing!
On the other side, Tskhinvali, the capital of South Ossetia, is brightly lit, and groups of people are constantly running around the city with guns and ammunition.
Advancing out of the city from several directions, they received orders from the autonomous prefecture government and were sent far away from Tskhinvali to stop the advance of the GRU troops. They must slow down the advance of the GRU troops.
After all, modern cities are undefended. Once the enemy reaches the city, especially when there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, it is almost equivalent to losing the city.
Even if there is a war, it must be far away from the city to prevent civilians in the city from being affected by the war and causing unnecessary casualties and turmoil.
In addition to the teams in these two directions "running in both directions", there are also third-party forces that are also advancing rapidly at the same time.
However, they penetrated from the middle of the GRU and South Ossetian forces. If we look at the speed of the three parties, it should be the South Ossetian and GRU forces, about fifty kilometers away from Tskhinvali.
Let’s meet first.
At this time, the third-party forces were still dozens of kilometers away from them.
But one thing to note is that the power of this third party moves much faster than the other two parties!
Obviously, both the GRU and South Ossetia sides are semi-mechanized troops, and naturally their marching speed will not be very fast, but the third party is a fully mechanized team, and its speed is much faster.
There is no doubt that this third party is Wagner who received the order from Wang Ye!
This time, a lot of Wagner's combatants came, more than 8,000 of them, and all of them were the most elite combat troops, led by Androv himself!
It can be seen that Androv attaches great importance to this conflict. After all, such large-scale battles are very rare, and Wagner has never experienced such a large scene since its establishment.
So you have to play well!
First, it is to live up to the boss's expectations and let the boss see that the massive funds he has invested over the years have not been in vain, but have actually transformed into Wagner's combat effectiveness!
Secondly, he was also proving himself. Ever since he learned that his boss had established a security company called Tsar Guard, Androv felt a little uneasy, worried that his boss didn't trust him.
Although he seems to have great power on the surface, and the boss will hardly interfere in the internal affairs of the Wagner Company, Androv understands that the Wagner Company can run normally without him or anyone in the company, but he cannot leave the boss!
Because without the "care" of the boss, Wagner will immediately become difficult to deal with. There will be no source of weapons and ammunition, no source of logistical supplies, and even personnel replenishment will become very difficult.
So he never dared to think about supporting troops and respecting himself...
In order to resolve the Gnan conflict beautifully, Androv has made detailed plans in advance. Of course, this is also because he received a notice from Wang Ye in advance, informing him that there will be an incident between Gru and Nanao in the near future.
Seti Conflict.
Androv had a detailed understanding of the military strength of both GRU and South Ossetia, and then deduced that the battlefield of the final "big battle" between the two sides should be not far from Tskhinvali, the capital of South Ossetia...
…
So after receiving a call from Wang Ye tonight and ordering him to dispatch, Androv directly asked the combatants who were ready to set off quickly.
In addition to the fully mechanized troops quickly moving towards the target location, there are actually fighter planes and armed helicopters on standby at the North Caucasus Military Region Airport behind them, ready to go at any time!
In fact, Androv can completely let fighter planes and armed helicopters arrive at the battlefield in advance, which will give the Gru army a head-on blow!
But he did not do that. Instead, he would wait until the GRU troops and local armed forces in South Ossetia started fighting before sending fighter planes and helicopters for bombing.
Saving South Ossetia from crisis, doesn’t this highlight Wagner’s role?
It can be considered that the task assigned by the boss has been completed beautifully.
As for whether Wagner could defeat Gru's regular army, Androv could only say that it would not be too easy.
Although Gru's army has more than twice the number of Wagner, in terms of weapons, equipment and personnel quality, there is a huge difference!
Using Wagner's elite to attack the Gru troops is simply a dimensionality reduction strike...
…………
At around six o'clock in the morning, before dawn, the local armed forces in South Ossetia had already encountered the advancing GRU troops, and a fierce battle officially began.
After all, this is the last and most powerful resistance force in South Ossetia, with a strength of six to seven thousand, so it can still play some role in stopping the GRU troops.
The two sides looked at each other from a distance, using mortars, heavy machine guns, rocket launchers and other weapons to fight each other in a lively manner.
Gru was not in a hurry to move forward, because after a night of traveling, they also needed to adjust their state and take a little rest.
Anyway, as long as we can defeat the local armed forces in front of us, the capital Tskhinvali not far ahead will be undefended, and this conflict will be over!
Moreover, they do not want to end the conflict too quickly, because occupying South Ossetia is only one of the goals of their attack this time, not even the most important goal!
They still want to wait and see if Da Mao will end up personally...
…………
As soon as the two sides came into contact, the gap between the local armed forces and the regular army was clearly revealed.
Although Gru's level is not high, his advance and retreat are orderly, and his attacks are rhythmic and layered.
Looking at the South Ossetian side, it was a mess. The entire front line was broken through in several places as soon as they came into contact, and the firepower was also suppressed by the Gru side.
To be continued...
