It was peaceful, like a holiday village from morning to night, without any noise, just quiet and leisurely waiting.
Unexpectedly, the Soviets did not launch an attack the next day, and not even a single Soviet troop appeared in this mountainous area for the next four or five days.
There were only a few helicopters wandering back and forth in the sky for a few times, but they didn't stop too much.
They seemed to take a few photos and then left here again.
There was no intention of firing rockets or heavy machine gun fire as a deterrent.
Of course, just on the edge of this mountainous area, the Soviets' temporary positions have also been excavated.
If viewed from the sky, this mountainous area has been surrounded by a series of tunnels.
The tunnels, which appear to be iron ropes, are arranged in the hilly areas on the edge of the mountainous area.
Countless Soviet soldiers are running back and forth or in and out of these tunnels.
The firepower combination of machine guns and light machine guns is also extremely effective.
There are even more than a dozen large-caliber mortars in the rear that are being dragged by the Soviet soldiers and appear in the mortar positions that have been built earlier. .
Under the seemingly peaceful atmosphere, there was a tense atmosphere of war.
Even in the defensive bunkers in the mountains, strict security is in place.
The Marine Corps boys are always ready at their posts.
If there is any abnormality, the right to fire has been directly delegated to the front line at the captain level. , they can also react in the shortest time.
And even the support artillery fire in the holes outside the cave base is always loaded and ready to be activated.
The previous brutal battles had sounded the alarm for them in the cave base.
They had a complete group of permanently prepared defensive bunkers, but nearly twenty people were killed under the Soviet attack, which already showed their shortcomings.
If it were an ordinary force, without Liszt's golden finger as support, I am afraid that in the turbulent wave of attacks, one defensive bunker after another would have been defeated, and eventually all the surface positions of the entire cave base would have been surrendered.
In conventional combat, no Goldfinger can provide large amounts of ammunition at all times, and no Goldfinger recruits soldiers who can maintain constant morale in fierce battles.
This battle itself is an asymmetric war.
Not only the difference in numbers between the Soviets and List, but also the complete bunker group and fire network, as well as the timeliness of artillery support, have also made the asymmetry between the two sides reach a climax in the fierce battle. .
This was also the main reason why the Soviets did not continue their offensive.
Fighting in this extremely complex area, the pressure brought by logistics prevented them from using armored forces on a large scale like in the plains.
What's more, oil resources are already severely scarce.
For Lister's military goal hidden in the mountains, which has no strategic or tactical significance, it has become impossible to use aviation helicopter units and tactical bomber groups that are already short of fuel. .
Now the Soviet troops have to wait for weapons and ammunition that can be transported by sea and land from the outposts on the Queen Charlotte Islands, and they can only transport the boxes of bullets through the mountains on the shoulders of the soldiers themselves.
Heavy machine guns and light machine guns are deployed in temporary tunnel positions in this mountainous area.
The body of the mortar is almost like a big heavy steel pipe.
Even if ten strong Soviet soldiers cooperated to carry it, it took three days to finally reach this complex mountainous area in the remnants of the Rocky Mountains. .
The permanent defensive bunkers built on various hills have made the Soviets feel the deepest pressure.
Steel plates are also embedded in the thick reinforced concrete.
Even tactical bombing cannot destroy these fortifications, except for large-caliber bombs.
Mortars use concussion to stun the personnel inside, so they cannot truly conquer the surface positions in this mountainous area with only infantry and machine gun firepower.
The firepower network in the rainy night had frightened the retreating Soviets, and the roaring artillery bombardment anytime and anywhere made the groups of Soviet infantry who wanted to use the rainy night cover to attack, even if they relied on advanced aliens.
The primitive power armor of armor technology still suffered heavy casualties in the dense firepower network.
After gathering the troops after the battle, they came to the conclusion that they actually achieved the result of more than half of the casualties and unknown kills of the enemy, which is rarely seen in wars.
No one dared to continue the determined attack, not only from the protests from the lower-level infantry soldiers, but even the middle and high-level commanders had lost the courage to continue the attack in front of the well-built bunkers.
Without air support, even with the fire support of large-caliber artillery, they allowed their troops to officially launch an offensive.
Even considering the current tense confrontation between Canada, the United States Federation and the Soviet Union, they could no longer tolerate continued failure.
Although the tactical failure was nothing to the Soviets, the military pressure from the US federal government always made it impossible for the Soviets, which had extended their tentacles to North America, to continue to bear the slightest bit of pressure.
North America is still the main site of the United States Federation, especially the United States Federal Army, which is gradually moving its main forces to Mexico, and has turned the land close to Canada into a complete military management zone.
Even now in Canada, there are already pro-American factions protesting, especially if it occurs on Canadian soil and is not under Canadian jurisdiction.
Even Canada has no right to interfere with the troops of both sides.
The humiliating appearance has made some people in Canada Demonstrations were held.

Coupled with the lack of global energy resources and the global traffic control, the three countries in North America have become as dangerous as a powder keg that can be ignited by a spark.
Hundreds of thousands of troops have been deployed in North America, all of which are in a first-level alert state.
They are not only preparing to defend against the opponent's attack, but also require proactive military strikes.
And on the west coast of the Rocky Mountains, in the mountainous area among the remaining mountains, Lister and his troops were like outsiders, and they seemed like a copper pea that was an eyesore, standing there abruptly, in front of everyone.
They all wished he was gone, but they refused to fall no matter what.
But on the evening of the third day, a Black Hawk helicopter appeared hovering above the mountainous area, and slowly hovered in the sight of a defensive bunker.
At the same time, the side door was opened, and a man also wearing a similar The soldier in the U.S.
Army combat uniform leaned out half of his body, waving a flag in his hand, and the height of the helicopter gradually dropped as the flag swayed, appearing on the gentle hillside below the defensive bunker
