Chapter 2252 Mandalorian Civil War (7)


2253. Mandalorian Civil War (7)

Less than three days after capturing Sekbi City, the Vizsla government forces were forced to abandon the city and retreat in panic. As they retreated, they blew up the city's last water supply facility and destroyed the dust shield controller, making rebuilding the city extremely difficult and expensive.

It can be seen that they were very reluctant to retreat. After all, in order to occupy Sikebi City, they paid a heavy price of nearly 8,000 deaths and more than 30,000 injuries.

But they had to retreat because this army had been completely cut off from supplies.

The Vizsla government army attacking Sikebi City has a total of 7 legions, with a total strength of more than 90,000 people. Such an army consumes extremely huge amounts of materials every day of fighting. Their original plan was to capture the city within three days, but it actually took more than a week, which left the army with no ammunition supplies.

Food was okay and could be supplied directly in the city, but ammunition and water became huge problems.

Cities on the planet Mandalore are generally short of water, and the firm resistance of Sakebi City also caused the Vizsla government troops to quickly drink up all the water they carried. Moreover, when the residents of the city were evacuating, they would rather dump the water that was inconvenient to take away than leave it to the invaders. This made the water shortage extremely serious among the army.

The city's water supply facilities were severely damaged during the war. Although they finally occupied the city, in order to allow the soldiers to replenish water as quickly as possible, the army had to stay in the city for a long time until all the soldiers were replenished. After that, the next step of combat planning can be carried out.

And this army's long stay in the city has caused a huge security risk - because they are short of ammunition!

Chaofan-Vizla did build a huge army of 2 to 3 million people, but he did not have a military-industrial system that could support such a huge army. After he built this army, he was like a child appreciating his toy, happily watching this unprecedented army and laughing, but he ignored one of the most critical things -

supply!

The supplies consumed by an idle army and an army in combat state are completely different! In normal times, this army would only shoot a few shots when training, fire a few shots into the sky when suppressing riots, and if that didn't work, shoot a few chief criminals in the head, and that's it. According to the capacity of the high-pressure gas tank in the blaster rifle, it can generally sustain anywhere from 400 to 700 rounds of shooting. Such a gas tank can be used for at least several months at a normal pace.

What's more, the planet Mandalore does not produce explosive gas, and almost all weapons and ammunition need to be imported. But the Galactic Empire was too lazy to pay attention to him. Although the Dawn Principality had Bespin, one of the largest sources of explosive gas, it was even less likely to sell ammunition to him.

So Chaofan Vizsla established this army, relying on purchases from the black market and the accumulation of weak local production capacity. It can still maintain basic training on weekdays and show its authority in front of civilians. To be a blessing, that’s okay.

But once on the battlefield, a can of blasting gas that a soldier can usually use for several months can now be fired out in less than 5 minutes! This is also related to the low morale and training of these soldiers, because once faced with an oncoming hail of bullets on the battlefield, the first reaction of these soldiers is to hide behind the bunker and face a burst of fire from the opposite side. With release.

Therefore, even after Chao Chao Vizsla declared war on the people of the entire Mandalorian planet, he did not send out all the troops, only about 800,000, but these 800,000 troops also accumulated him in one day Two or three years of supplies were used up!

This is the true face of war!

Extraordinary - Vizsla's original plan was that after he launched an attack and brutally massacred a group of stubborn people, the frightened civilians would immediately kneel down and surrender. This war It can be over in a week at most. But he underestimated the people's determination to resist after being forced into a desperate situation!

Almost everywhere, the Vizsla government forces encountered the strongest resistance. Even if those resisters are armed with wooden sticks, they will fight to the end against the government troops who are armed with live ammunition! What's even more terrible is that in order to expand the attack area and create fear and chaos across the entire planet, Chao Chao-Vizla divided his army into more than a hundred groups and spread them all over the place.

However, the fruits that bloomed everywhere did not come out, and requests for supplies came to him from all over the place like snowflakes.

The Vizsla government forces simply do not have the ability to supply more than a hundred armies scattered all over the world at the same time! As a result, armies in various places lacked food and water, lacked ammunition, medicine, and even the wounded could not receive treatment, which became a common problem.

Back to Sikebi City, more than 90,000 troops here took the risk of fighting hard for more than a week in order to drink water, and stayed in place in the complex terrain and dangers despite the lack of ammunition supplies. In an urban environment, this is a very wrong decision.

Thus, serious consequences finally occurred.

Jango Fett led his super soldiers and continuously attacked the spaceships and transport convoys transporting supplies to Skebi City, leaving the army exhausted. Finally, after the transport fleet was attacked and the supplies were destroyed reached its peak. The morale of the more than 90,000 troops collapsed completely, and the commander could no longer effectively command the troops. The entire army retreated in panic and uncontrollably, leaving the city limits.

And this retreat also brought to naught the results of more than a week before. Men died in vain, money wasted, and ammunition wasted.

The battle in Sikepi City also completely exposed the essence of Cha Chao-Vizlan's paper tiger to the eyes of everyone on the entire planet! Those who were still wavering between wanting to overthrow Chaozhou-Vizla's rule and fearing his powerful army now immediately raised the flag of rebellion without hesitation!

On Chaofan-Vizla's side, realizing the huge mistake he had made, he could only make up for it and began to withdraw his troops from various places to the cities that were still loyal to him to recuperate.

But this is easier said than done. It is a huge challenge for the troops scattered on hundreds of battlefields on the planet to retreat, both tactically and strategically, or in terms of the most realistic transportation capabilities.

The resistance army led by Bo-Katan Kryze took advantage of this opportunity to launch a counterattack!

On several local battlefields, the rebels began counterattacks when the Vizsla government troops ran out of ammunition and food. The Brick-Arol class airspeed craft that had been reluctant to be taken out before was finally put into the battlefield and began to focus on the defense lines of the Vizsla government forces, causing this army to retreat steadily.

The resistance army began to move one of the fronts in one direction, gradually advancing towards the capital Sundali City!

At this moment, there are only 5 days left before the coronation ceremony that Chaofan Vizsla is clamoring for! (End of this chapter)
