Chapter 702: Burning Highway
"Captain, we must ......" the Negro had not finished speaking.
Sean had already commanded the rest of the people to board the car, "Hurry up, we're not far from the chaos camp!
This group of mercenaries responded with a bang. Quickly got into the car and chased after the small pickup truck.
The nimble little pickup truck got out of pursuit, but it turned around and drove behind a dirt slope. Sergei and Wang Haoze jumped out of the car. "Boss, we've got them hooked, about a dozen cars. The gang will be there in a moment. Sergei said to Lin Rui and the panther Gulei, who were standing behind the dirt slope.
"Well done. Lin Rui nodded.
Black Panther Gulei frowned a little and said, "Lin Rui, why don't we just ambush them on the side of the road, but choose here?"
"These men are well-trained, and even if a truck was destroyed just now, they quickly recovered and organized a chase in an orderly manner. I'm worried that if we ambush on the side of the road, we will suffer heavy casualties. Killing a thousand people and harming eight hundred, that's not what I want to see. Lin Rui shook his head and said. "So I chose to ambush them here. ”
"Because the terrain here is undulating and the roads are narrow, which limits the mobility of their vehicles, it is indeed more conducive to rapid encirclement and annihilation. Black Panther Guray nodded.
The convoy quickly caught up, but the leader was hit by a roadside bomb. The Afrika Korps under the Black Panther Gourley used this kind of guerrilla tactic, and the roadside bombs arranged were extremely powerful, and a lot of iron nails and broken iron pieces were added, and once they exploded, the lethality was even more amazing.
Because it was night, it was already dark. The mercenaries who drove the car had not had a good rest for two days and two nights because of the feint attack of the mercenaries on the Black Island. Where will you be on the lookout for roadside bombs? This move directly overturned the heavy truck to the ground.
And just behind them, several mercenaries of the Black Island Company dodged out, and the anti-tank rocket launchers on their shoulders opened fire at the same time. Another truck at the back of the convoy was completely destroyed in a violent explosion. The mercenaries in the car who didn't have time to jump out of the car to escape were blown to pieces, and some of the lucky ones were covered in burning flames, and let out a terrible howl after jumping out of the car.
More than a dozen heavy trucks were destroyed from head to end, and the gang stuck in the middle couldn't move at all. You can't run away at all, you can only get out of the car and fight. But as soon as the fire was exchanged, these Morningstar mercenaries discovered the problem, which was simply a perfect ambush trap. There was heavy enemy fire at several key positions.
The heavy machine guns deployed by Lin Rui and others in advance swept through like a lawnmower. The M1917 Browning heavy machine gun is water-cooled, with a water barrel on the outside of the barrel for heat dissipation. Jason didn't care about the barrel overheating, and he picked it up and fired wildly. This kind of machine gun, which was originally mounted on a car or an airplane, was incredibly powerful.12 7 mm ammunition, which is extremely deterrent.
The key is more than a heavy machine gun, several fire points are organized into a complete fire blockade, and if someone shows their head, they will be smashed to pieces, and hiding behind a car is not an option. These heavy machine guns could lightly penetrate all compartment baffles. This is a completely unreasonable way of playing, and this battle made Sean so depressed that he vomited blood!
He originally calculated to fight the Black Island Company in Goat Rock, but he didn't expect to become the target of an ambush here. "Evacuate and hide!" Sean howled.
But the terrain here was an open road, and even if a few people ran wildly away from the main road, there was no cover on either side, and they were soon knocked to the ground by a rain of ammunition. The mercenaries of the Black Isle Company held the high ground on one side, and the powerful firepower was pouring down undisguised. Morningstar's scene was extremely passive.
"It's so much fun!" laughed Jason. "They don't even dare to show their heads. ”
Lin Rui shook his head, "It's not enough, you should give them something more unique." Didn't they hide behind the hull, up with recoilless guns and bazookas. ”
"Okay!" Sergei jumped up and down with excitement, carrying a bazooka and starting to fight. This time it really took the lives of the Morningstar company.
The rockets on the high ground on one side of the ground rushed towards the convoy below with dazzling tracers, and the violent explosion and flames caused the convoy to be completely destroyed in flames. The batch of bazookas that Alpha sold them finally found its place. The Morning Star mercenaries, who had been hiding behind the car, could no longer resist and fled in all directions. This, in turn, exposed them to machine gun range.
The burning road, the mutilated body, and the blood soaked in this short distance of a few tens of meters.
The battle lasted only ten minutes. Ten minutes later, the Morningstar forces below were no longer able to resist. The number of combatants has been reduced to less than twenty or thirty. Sean's heart is bleeding, and Lucifer's team is finished. Most of his Lucifer team died on the hellish burning highway.
Sean himself had been injured in multiple places, and his head was still dizzy from the blast, and he could feel himself dying.
The gunshots gradually thinned out, and in the silence, Sergei, who was covered in dust, walked in front of Lin Rui. His eyes were full of reverence, and he said, "Boss, your plan is really powerful, we, we really won." At this point, he could no longer suppress his excitement, raised the gun in his hand, turned back to the crowd and shouted: "We have won!"
"Yay!" erupted in cheers from the crowd of Black Island mercenaries.
After cheering, the mercenaries of the Black Island Company ceased fire, and Lin Rui stood on the high post, looking at the tragic scene like Shura's hell below. He waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Withdraw!"
"Withdraw now?" Jason said unsatisfactorily.
"The scheduled combat time is 10 minutes. The water transporter was already waiting for us at the pier. Lin Rui said slowly, "We have eliminated most of their combat power. The tactical objective has been achieved. There is no need to kill the dozen or so people below, because their life and death have nothing to do with the overall situation. ”
Lin Rui turned around and turned on the communicator on his helmet, "Each team reports the loss, and we are ready to evacuate." ”
The damage in the battle was astonishing, with the two or three hundred men of the Morningstar Company almost completely wiped out, while the Black Island Company only paid the price of two dead and six wounded. It was a completely one-sided battle.
Lin Rui took a deep breath, turned around and ordered, "Find someone to bring the dead brother." No matter life or death, we will never leave anyone behind, this is the rule. It's also the bottom line that we should have as mercenaries. ”
Sergei felt a chill and unconsciously took a step back. He put away his smile and nodded, "I'll arrange it." ”
Black Panther Gu Lei looked at Lin Rui on the opposite side standing in the wind, in such a night, under such a bright moon, for the first time, he looked at this foreign young man seriously. Lin Rui's slightly tired expression was a little melancholy, and after taking off his helmet, his black hair brushed his face, and only his eyes were clear and bright.
"Perhaps, the next ten years of the mercenary battlefield will really be your world. The Black Panther Guray said suddenly.
