Chapter 494 Adjustment
Two Gurkhas were sent to the foot of the mountain behind them, and they sorted out the remaining cars in a row and prepared for all the quick evacuation...
When they climbed up the ridge panting again, the battle had already begun...
In fact, the defensive battle between the mountains and fields is really something that people who have never experienced field battles can imagine. It is not the feeling that a machine gun can suppress a large area with a fan-shaped strafing, nor is it that the enemies are exposed to themselves and can name them at will. They are all humans, people who know how to avoid, fear and death threats...
For those who defend the highlands, every danger is even in a place where they cannot see it. A bush or stone hundreds of meters away may shoot fatal bullets behind them. When there are enemies like wriggling ants all over the mountains, how can you see it?
Of course, the blessing of misfortune is that these enemies are militia-like with light weapons, so there is no need to worry about air bombing and heavy firepower threats...
Qi Tianlin can firmly believe that this is the victory. This is two completely different states from the desert eagle being surrounded in that wilderness!
He just doesn't want to kill too many people, and it's not a glorious thing to be on the world headlines like that.
But his wishful thinking was first broken by the explosion of the mine...
The attack team of thousands of people spread out in the mountains and fields, because as the morning mist slowly dissipated, people on both sides could see the cruel scene left last night. If this continued, I really don’t know if the militants still have the courage to gather together to attack again, so a large number of people knelt down and prayed in the same direction, and then began to spread out and attack one after another...
There is no commander, no battlefield deployment, and no firepower cover, just the number of people who make their scalp numb, and there are shouts of encouragement everywhere. However, as the mountain climbing movement begins, it becomes silent, and all your strength is applied to your legs. It is not because the mountain road is difficult to move forward, but as you move forward, the fear of the unknown death threat ahead really makes your legs heavier...
The only thing that the enemy had a tacit understanding in attacking was to avoid the depression yesterday. The scene of the concentrated bombardment by recoilless cannons was so shocking. Gurkha and Qi Tianlin on the ridge could not be seen. Yesterday's observation post had been revoked, otherwise just recording this scene with a camera would be enough to allow the United Nations Human Rights Organization to intervene in the battle.
Next to the craters, there were corpses with broken limbs and broken arms. Countless body clothes were lifted by explosion air waves. The dust mixed with blood stains wrapped in blood. Occasionally, a piece of skin that was not dirty was also dried up. The body muscles that were full of vitality more than ten hours ago have now become stiff and white, turning into a pile of dead flesh...
Compared to the corpses scattered on the hillside and the mountain road, there are too many people who die here, whether they are destroyed by the previous small mortar or Qi Tianlin's recoilless cannon...
Another concentration point is in front of the observation post last night. The tenacious three-person group left more than fifty corpses in front of him, so the mountain road was basically blocked by corpses. To attack from there, you have to climb over the corpses of your own tribe and over the cannonball that was in sight!
So basically, taking advantage of the dawn, these militants were separated as they were, and they were a little unconsciously separated from each other...
However, unlike last night only Team D defends here, there are now two teams A. In order to expand the defense area, they opened up two high grounds on the hills, leaving a middle path. If the enemy forcibly attacks at the low point between the two ridges in the middle, it will only bring a more violent blow.
So the enemies on both sides just crossed the horizontal ridge in front and triggered several landmines. The explosion immediately scared these militants who had been through the battlefield and lay on the ground. After they found that they were landmines, they actually shouted to drive out a bunch of goats from behind the ridge!
Qi Tianlin and the others were stunned and looked at the Pashtun people who had fought for one or two generations of people using the method of fighting against the Soviet and American troops back then to deal with their landmines. After the goat was stunned and blazed out a safe passage with their bodies, the militants began to move carefully to this side!
The distance was shortened very quickly from the five hundred meters, four hundred meters, and three hundred meters at the ridge in front...
Because for most bullets, within 300 meters is the appropriate shooting range, and within 200 meters is the best fire suppression distance...
Qi Tianlin didn't need special requests, and all the team leaders called in their respective communication channels: "Firepower distribution! This team will be subject to me!"
Then the captains quickly discussed their respective firepower distribution ranges in the command communication channel: "The person with a brown vest in front of me is the coordinates of Team A's fourth team!" "The black bearded rocket launcher is right in front of Team B's six!"
Looking at the messy and long crowd, they were separated from the walkie-talkie...
It is clearly marked...
Qi Tianlin still did not aim at the gun. He was really adapting to his identity as a commander, standing behind the ridge to observe the command of the squad leader and the squad leader, as well as the preparation of the temporary artillery positions behind him... The observation post has been withdrawn, and as a reserve support team is on standby in the rear of both sides. If there is a gap in any direction, they will be the first to replenish the team.
The defensive team with only more than 60 people has such complicated preparations!
This is the difference...
Team B started to fire first because their faces were relatively flat and the enemy was more likely to approach them. Although the militants were climbing and shooting aimlessly at the ridge, they found that some people carrying the bazooka were already preparing to launch, and the captain of Team B issued a shooting order in the command channel!
The first wave of shooting was only four or five rifles!
They were all captains' rifles, all of them were tracer bullet commanders' magazines, and they shot a series of bright trajectories, and their respective targets fell to the ground!
Just as the militants were startled, then happy, thinking that there were not many people on the other side, the sound of stir-fried bean-like shooting began!
Taking the shooting points of their respective captains as the coordinates, the first soldier on the left side of the captain beats the first person on the left just now, the second soldier on the left side beats the second enemy, and so on. This is the most typical firepower distribution in grassroots combat in Western army!
This tactic raises the killing rate to the highest point. In one round of point shots, you will see people falling down!
There will definitely be no waste of shooting a few guns at the same time...
Then the team leader's shooting point was still changing, and the shooting of the entire team changed in surface attacks, just like combing the enemy in front of him ruthlessly!
Even if the enemies are arranged apart, the waste rate of bullets will be very low!
Of course, the first wave was the most efficient, and the enemy's scattered formation immediately became chaotic... At this time, two mortars began to bombard the position that had been calibrated long ago. Explosions, gunfires, splashing shrapnel and stone dust immediately filled the hundreds of meters in front of Team B...
The enemy's rockets and gun bullets must have also flew towards the location where Team B was discovered, but the single-army fortifications built in advance can still block most of the attacks below the slopes and have almost no damage...
However, the battle beyond the lateral distance of one or two hundred meters greatly stimulated the attack of the enemy in front of Team A. They rushed up and tried to occupy another high ground or ridge and suppress the enemy here. But they just hit Team A's idea, and almost the same firepower distribution was also staged here...
Several other mortars of different sizes and calibers have also begun to bomb!
The captain of Team A was a bit special. He found a imitation of South African mgl grenade gun in the gun shop, which was to fire 40mm grenades using the principle of revolver. He held them with both hands and followed a construction gap, and all of them were fired!
The six high-explosive bombs were mixed with the sound of gunfire and exploded, just like the palm of the giant god, slapping and slapping to the dispersed militants!
There are almost no snipers, and the only few precise rifles are used to shoot semi-automatically to find those bazooka players and old-fashioned riflesmen, reducing the threats of these people as much as possible...
Yes, old-fashioned rifles, those who hold Enfield rifles during World War I, were named more than AK Rifles because these single-firing rifles are more accurate than AK Rifles. A gunman who hides behind a rock may cause fatal damage to the defense...
The courage that the Pashtun people plucked up instantly in front of such a defense, ran away with their heads in their arms, and even panickedly touched the mines they had just avoided...
But this is just the first attack...
There are still a large number of people who have not entered this hell to reincarnate. There are many people who come from various villages and villages and streets who do not believe in evil and take turns to fight!
The fierce battle started after 5 a.m. and lasted until after 2 noon...
A total of eleven attacks were repelled!
On average, it takes less than an hour...
This shows how brave these nations that have fought for generations are!
But Gurkha's reputation was not for nothing... the excellent equipment, sufficient ammunition, and good fortification construction allowed them to firmly guard this highland!
With the record of only more than a dozen people being injured and only one person was seriously injured by rockets exploding nearby, we stand firmly on the high ground!
But even so, the mortar shells have been shot long ago, and the ammunition base on each person is lower than the normal carrying value, which means there are no more than four magazines...
Qi Tianlin looked at the corpses that had almost been stacked up below, and countless wounded people were crawling and moving, but no one dared to rescue them...
The enemies between the mountains and fields in the distance have become visible to the naked eye. After repeated roars, they cannot muster up the courage to launch the twelfth attack! There are only a few hundred or even hundreds of attacks later.
It's time to adjust again...
Chapter completed!
