When Ye Chen heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly pulled over and blurted out: "Brother, don't panic first, I'll ask you. What is the overall level of the government army?"

"Not really." Hamid said: "But the mercenaries they hired this time are very powerful. They are the top five Wanlong Temple in the world. It is said that Wanlong Temple sent 10,000 soldiers to help the government forces at one time."

Ye Chen frowned and asked, "Who is the origin of Wanlong Palace?"

"I'm not very clear," Hamid replied: "It is said to be a mercenary organization established by Chinese people. It has developed rapidly in recent years, and its scale and strength are very strong! Their individual soldiers are much higher than those of government troops! Basically, they are all at the level of special forces in developed countries!"

Ye Chen said in surprise: "I have never heard of this organization before. I only know about the American Black Water, the Russian Cossacks, and the Wanlong Temple. This is the first time I have heard of it."

Hamid sighed: "You don't have any chance to deal with mercenaries, and you definitely don't know these people. To put it bluntly, they are professional soldiers who operate commercially. They collect money and do business. They are the most active in places like ours where there are more wars. This Wanlong Hall is said to have tens of thousands of people under their command, including nearly a hundred top experts. They are very strong. The God of War also sent one of the four strongest war kings under their command to Syria..."

Ye Chen asked him: "Don't be nervous, the level of the special forces will die if they are shot. Although your individual soldier's quality is not as good as him, you have the right time and place. As long as you can play your own advantages, you may not lose if you really fight."

As he said that, Ye Chen asked again: "How are your permanent fortifications and the reverse slope tunnel repairing?"

Hamid hurriedly said: "I have been asking them to work overtime recently! But the workload is really too large. In such a short time, it is really difficult to fully implement the entire plan..."

Ye Chen said calmly: "I understand, just tell me whether the permanent fortifications and the back slope tunnel you are currently defending front are put into use?"

"Yes." Hamid said: "The fortifications on the front of my base entrance have been almost built. After all, this is the top priority of my entire defense. As for the reverse slope tunnel, I have excavated all sides, but it has not been opened yet, and there is no internal tunnel network. However, as you said, I have hoarded a large amount of materials inside. It is not a problem to stick to the materials for one or two years."

"Okay!" Ye Chen blurted out: "Then I ask you, do you know what the firepower is in the other party's 8,000-man troops?"

Hamid said: "10 armored vehicles, more than 30 towed artillery, and fifty or sixty trucks. What should be pulled is supplies and ammunition."

Ye Chen thought about it and asked again: "Do you know what specifications and models are more than 30 towing cannons?"

Hamid said: "The investigators visually said that it should be a Russian-made 152mm artillery."

Ye Chen's father Ye Changying is a standard military fan. In the past, there was a whole room in the house filled with models of various weapons and equipment, and there were countless books, magazines and materials on various weapons and equipment.

When Ye Chen was a child, she had a lot of knowledge about various weapons and equipment.

So, he said without thinking: "There are many models of Russian 152mm artillery. But I speculate that those who can reach Syria should be produced in the 1970s and 1980s, or even longer, so the effective range should be around 20 kilometers."

Hamid asked in surprise: "Brother, do you understand all this?"

Ye Chen nodded and asked again: "Does the other party have air firepower?"

"No." Hamid said: "There are only a dozen broken Su24s in the government army. Most of them are lying in the hangar and cannot fly. Those who can fly have to defend the capital and occasionally attack terrorists. They can't take any energy out of their energy? Hit me, and it doesn't make any sense to come. It's just dropping some bombs."

As he said, Hamid said again: "As for the armed helicopters, I'm not afraid of him coming. Anyway, their armed helicopters are not very good. I have a lot of shoulder-mounted missiles here, so it's easy to shoot helicopters. I guess they are not willing to take the helicopter to die."

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that it is probably a pure ground war, so you don't have to worry for the time being."

As he said that, Ye Chen said again: "I suggest you observe the other party's intentions first, because the number of people on the other party itself has a great advantage. If they want to attack with force, they will not bring so many artillery, so their strategic intentions should be the same as the ground war model between countries decades ago. I want to coordinate with you for infantry and cannons!"

Hamid asked: "What is infra-cannon coordination?"

Ye Chen said: "It means that infantry and artillery fight in concert. To put it bluntly, the artillery will rush after bombing the infantry, and the infantry will not rush over the artillery. In your current situation, the opponent should plan to use artillery to cover you with artillery to blow you up, reduce your personnel in half, and cut your combat power in half, and then use armored vehicles to cover the infantry's charge."

Hamid agreed and said, "You are right, I think they must have a intensive bombing for me first!"

Ye Chen said, "Don't be afraid of blowing up, because your back slope tunnel is already in there. Now, you should transport all your most precious personnel, materials and equipment to the back slope tunnel first, and then quickly let someone drive away your precious armed helicopters. The number of people on the other side is large, and your helicopters will not play a big role. You should drive hundreds of kilometers away and find an unmanned valley or on the plains on the hilltop to stop. Otherwise, when the other party's shelling begins, your helicopters will probably have to kneel down."

"Yes, yes!" Hamid came to his senses and immediately ordered the adjutant beside him: "Let the helicopter pilot prepare. Fly north and fly a hundred kilometers away to find a place to hide!"

It’s not that Hamid was panicked. Although he had been fighting with the government forces for a long time, he had never had a large-scale conflict.

Therefore, his overall view of the situation is not that strong, at best he is the level of a small guerrilla leader.

Now that the government forces suddenly gathered such a powerful armed force to attack him, he was suddenly at a loss and had no idea how to deal with the battle.

On the contrary, people like Ye Chen who have never fought a war but are considering problems more comprehensively can remain 100% calm at this time, and carefully analyze the situation and give more reasonable suggestions.

Ye Chen said to him at this time: "I probably have a certain impression of the landform where you are. It is surrounded by hilly and mountain roads, winding and rugged, so you will not be too fast to advance too fast, and don't be too anxious to let the helicopter leave immediately."

As he said that, Ye Chen suggested again: "You can now ask the helicopter to help lift some precious heavy equipment into your backscene tunnel first. At the same time, you have to ask your front-line scouts to closely monitor the other party's movements, when the other party stops marching and starts to launch artillery, and when the helicopter leaves, it is still time to let the helicopter leave."
