Before Long Yun could finish speaking, he heard the sound of rocket artillery firing from the road in the distance.

"Take cover!" Long Yun jumped downstairs, rolled to the earthen wall and fell to the ground.

After all the bombardment just now, the entrance to the cellar has long been buried, and everyone now has nowhere to hide except to find some dilapidated houses as cover.

"Rhodes, what about our air support! Where the hell did those rice bucket air forces go!? Jon's voice was quickly drowned out by the explosion of the rocket launchers.

Several wounded soldiers of the 10th Mountain Division, who were seriously wounded in the battle, were unlucky, and the shelter point where they were hiding was hit by a rocket launcher, and several people were blown to pieces and their limbs were scattered.

The loud explosion shook people to the point of almost fainting, and Long Yun felt that he was almost unconscious.

Fire balls are constantly rising from all directions, and the density of rockets is incomparable to that of artillery, although the power is not as powerful as large-caliber howitzers, but the coverage rate is quite high, and in the past, everything will become a sea of fire.

Long Yun covered his head, hiding behind a pile of ruins, desperately looking at the two rocket launchers on the side of the road in the distance, the rockets dragging the tail of the fire kept rolling up the dust, drawing a line of fire in the sky, and flew towards here.

"We're going to die here......" Rhodes kept kissing the cross hanging from his dog tag.

"Maybe you can have Jesus come and save us now, hehe." Long Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, waiting for the dozens of rocket launchers on the two launchers to cover it, and no one in the entire village would survive.

Just when everyone was cursing the U.S. Air Force in despair, there was a roar in the sky, and Long Yun thought it was a coalition jet fighter, but when he looked up, two A-10 "Thunderbolt II" attack planes appeared in the sky, swooping down from a high place, and the "Avenger 30mm cannon" under the nose began to strafe wildly.

A two-meter-high mud wall blasted by 30-millimeter cannon shells stretched towards the two rocket launchers on the side of the road, and Long Yun could see the Taliban soldiers in the vehicles starting to jump frantically for their lives.

Boom –

Two fireballs bubbled up from the highway and went straight into the sky, and the rocket launcher had been concentrated by the cannon without finishing the rocket, causing a violent explosion in an instant, and the Taliban soldiers who had taken out more than ten meters were affected by the rocket explosion, and all of them became alive, rolling and wailing on the highway with screams.

"A-10 attack aircraft! Our support has arrived! The cheers of the American soldiers came over the radio headsets.

"Hurry up and mark our location!" Jon ordered. Now the village has been bombed into ruins, and the radio has lost its power supply, so it is impossible to connect with the attack aircraft, so it can only rely on smoke grenades to mark its location to avoid being killed by mistake.

"We don't have any smoke bombs, we're all gone." Cambridge patted his tactical vest, and the pockets on which the smoke grenades were placed were empty.

"Laser pointer!" Jon yelled at Rhodes, "Turn on the laser recognizer or the A-10 will plow us here!" ”

Communications Officer Rhodes quickly retrieved the laser pointer from his backpack, slipped it over the wound, and shook it in the direction of the A-10.

This kind of laser identifier is a necessary thing used by special forces to call for support when they go deep into enemy-occupied areas to carry out reconnaissance missions, whether it is night or day, the laser identifier can emit light waves in special frequency bands, and the personnel on the aircraft can receive them through the instrument to identify friend or foe.

Sure enough, the two A-10 Thunderbolt attack planes seemed to have received the signal and began to fly away from the left and the right after plowing the Taliban vehicles and armed men on the road with 30mm cannons.

On the ground, Taliban soldiers began to defend themselves at low altitudes with 12.7mm machine guns, and countless bullets weaved a web of fire in the air, which could still be seen clearly even in daylight.

However, this 12.7 caliber anti-aircraft machine gun has little effect on the A-10, and it is estimated that it can make a forced landing when it hits a vulnerable part of a helicopter such as Apache, but the A-10 Thunderbolt attack aircraft is a well-known and durable model, and the belly is full of titanium alloy bulletproof plates, and the power design is very peculiar, and the engines on both sides are very separated.

Clanging sparks splashed under the belly of the plane, and the A-10 swaggered to the top of the mountains on both sides and dropped two round and rumbling iron balls.

When they reached one or two hundred meters above the ground, the two iron balls suddenly disintegrated with a snap, and hundreds of small silver balls separated from the bullet bodies and floated down like rain.

"Oh my God!" A soldier of the 10th Mountain Division finally recognized the thing, "It's a cluster bomb!" ”

The beautiful little silver ball that shimmered silver in the sunlight revealed its hideous true face the moment it touched the ground, and a huge explosion bloomed at the same time on the opposite hillside. The entire hill turned red, and then thick black smoke rolled up.

Special incendiary bombs burned the snow as well. The people on the ground were either blown to ashes or rolled down the hill with screams and screams wrapped in flames, and some Taliban soldiers fell headlong in the snow before they could take two steps.

When it comes to modern, sophisticated weapons, the relatively backward Taliban soldiers are as defenseless as ants.

After the living forces on the ground were cleared, with absolute air supremacy, the two Black Hawk helicopters slowly appeared in the air, flew to the open space next to the village where Long Yun and the Delta squad were located, and landed.

Several heavily armed PJ Paratrooper Rescue Force soldiers jumped out of the plane and set up defensive points around it, and a guy with the rank of lieutenant trotted to the rubble wearing two soldiers.

"We are from the paratrooper rescue team, is Captain Long here?"

"I'm Long Yun."

"The front command has an urgent call for you!" The lieutenant raised his hand, and the communications corps behind him ran forward with the radio on his back.

"Why are you here so late?" Long Yun was still angry, the support of the air force was too late, "Isn't it ten minutes?" It's been at least half an hour! ”

"The Taliban air defense in the vicinity is very strong, and the first Apache was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile, and the other was so badly damaged that it had to turn back." The lieutenant explained: "I don't know where the Taliban got so many anti-aircraft missiles!" ”

Long Yun thought to himself, it was estimated that it was the weapon that the Liberation Society supported the Taliban, so he didn't ask any more questions, and stepped forward to borrow the headset handed by the communication soldier and put it on.

"Long Yun?" A familiar voice came over the radio headset.

"Doctor?" Long Yun was stunned, he also thought that Bagram Air Force Base was going to report the situation here to Finch, but he didn't expect that Finch actually took the initiative to contact him, it seemed that this violated the rule that you can't ask for support from the Council of Elders when you go to the Holy Church, "You are Dr. Finch?" ”

"It's me, there's an urgent situation, I have to inform you." Finch's tone seemed a little embarrassed, and he was silent on the other end of the radio for a moment before saying, "Maybe you won't be able to go to the Sanctuary......"
