Chapter 66: A Roundabout

Although the Huayong have been trained for a long time, at the moment of the enemy's attack, chaos is still inevitable, after all, training and combat are two different things, and a good performance on the training ground does not mean that they also perform well on the battlefield.

In particular, it is really difficult to stay calm when the brother who was shot and fell to the ground is crying loudly for help next to him.

At this point, the role of the commander came into play, and Roque observed the bushes opposite, turned over and jumped from the carriage to the other side of the train.

"Get out of the carriage, leave the railroad, rely on the train as a cover, build a defensive position-" Roque crouched down and tapped the wheel with his fingers, fine, at least five centimeters thick steel plate, much thicker than the steel plate used in the carriage.

"Locke, Locke, bring the horse over, fight back, we're going to fight back." Henry was a little too much adrenaline, and he forgot all about the division of labor with Roque before.

In fact, before leaving, Roque and Henry had already discussed the plan, if they were attacked by the guerrillas, then Henry would command the heavy machine gun to be responsible for frontal suppression, Stanley and Rahul were outflanked on both flanks, and Roque led twenty commandos with superb horsemanship to pursue the tail.

Guerrillas, don't expect them to have clever tactics, how strong their will, and even the training is not enough, and the logistics are not guaranteed, if this can't be won, Roque won't think about being promoted and making a fortune, it's better to do business with Ada.

Thinking of Ada, Roque's heart ached again.

But this is not the time to be hypocritical, Rogue squatted behind the wheel with Henry, pulled Henry's collar, yelled against Henry's face, and sprayed foaming stars on Henry's face: "Calm down Henry, deal with it according to our plan, you command the heavy machine gun to suppress the shooting, don't let them escape, don't let them move their positions, I'll go flank and outflank with Anton, you are the commander, you have to be calm!" ”

Henry felt a little confused, and nodded again and again like a little fool.

"Phyllis, look at Henry, don't let him mess around." Roque didn't expect Henry to perform well, just don't make a mess, and told Phyllis to run behind the train with a cat's waist.

"Okay, okay—" Phyllis seemed to be taken aback by Roque, and while nodding repeatedly, she looked at Roque with a brilliant gaze.

In fact, the military horse was also loaded on the train, and in the carriage behind Roque, Roque's horse was a four-year-old Hunter horse named "Sun", its coat was a little mixed, and it looked a little dirty, but it ran as fast as the sun.

Roque rode the sun to the rear of the car, Anton had already led the team, and only a heavy machine gun team was engaged in suppressive fire.

"Follow me, follow me, sun, rush!" Roque beckoned to the cavalrymen, who were already armed with guns, and with Lee Enfield in one hand, he circled the rear of the guerrilla position.

In fact, there was no need to outflank the guerrillas, and the guerrillas were already in disarray.

The biggest advantage of the guerrillas is the suddenness of the attack, if this is lost, the poorly equipped guerrillas have no chance to defeat the commandos armed to the teeth, Henry's care avoids the bomb attack, and Donn's point shot makes the guerrillas mistakenly think that they have been discovered, in fact, when the shooting is fired, the guerrillas have already lost, but they have not yet realized it.

Even if they didn't realize that they had fallen into passivity, when the guerrillas found out that Anton had led more than 20 commandos across the railroad to outflank them, the guerrillas immediately became disorganized.

Unlike the commandos who had made a plan in advance, the Boer guerrillas did not understand what it meant to "advance and retreat when the enemy advances, when the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, when the enemy is tired, when the enemy retreats, we pursue," nor do they understand what it means to "rationally choose the place of operation, rapidly deploy troops, rationally distribute troops, rationally choose the timing of operations, and quickly retreat after the battle." The Boers only instinctively chose the mode of operation that was most beneficial to them, and it was impossible to bring into full play the full power of guerrilla warfare.

Under normal circumstances, the Boer attack starts with the overturning of the train, and the overturning of the train will definitely lead to confusion among the soldiers escorting the train, and in this case, the Boers only need one charge to completely crush the defensive formation, which is how Winston was captured by the Boers.

Probably the Boers did not expect that Henry, who was about to be in trouble, would be so cautious, and as a result, the explosives would lose their effect, and the Boers would lose their greatest advantage.

Different from the neat queue to advance, Anton has already felt the threat of crossfire, the formation is very open when outflanking, the commandos almost did not straighten their bodies to advance, all of them are cats with the help of the terrain and geographical cross-cover in turn, sometimes even rolling and climbing, so the speed may be slower, but the threat to the enemy is greater, the guerrillas who occupy the terrain advantage can hardly find the target to shoot, and they have to guard against heavy machine gun fire, so they are very aggrieved, and the battle has just begun less than five minutes, The partisan positions have already begun to crumble.

It was really collapsing, and before Anton and them had returned to their positions, there were already Boer partisans who panicked and tried to escape, but as long as they dared to get up from the position, they were all torn apart by heavy machine guns, so the guerrillas did not withdraw from their positions quickly, at least not as fast as the cavalry led by Roque.

Just behind the guerrilla position, Roch spotted a large herd of warhorses, forty or fifty of them.

"Prepare for battle, take out anyone in your sight, we don't want to defeat them, but to annihilate them completely!" Roque's appetite is big, the guerrillas want to attack the commandos, and the commandos still want to get military merit from the guerrillas, attacking and defending and transposing, that is, in an instant.

If Henry had been by Roque's side, I'm afraid Henry would have a clear understanding of his marksmanship.

No sooner had Roque reined in his horse than a guerrilla with a rifle in tow fled from his position and tried to take his horse and flee.

Roque didn't give any chance at all, the person was still on the horse, and raising his hand was a shot.

Bang!

The fleeing partisans fell in response, and the commandos around Roque cheered loudly.

It is indeed to be applauded, about 100 meters, with a single shot in hand, this pistol technique is the top even among the guerrillas.

For this, Roque is full of confidence, since his rebirth, Roque has to consume hundreds of bullets on the training ground every day, even if he is injured, he has not slackened, the distance within 100 meters is really trivial, Roque uses a 100-meter chest target when training, and Roque only hits the head, which is much more difficult than hitting the chest target.
