Chapter 1068: Airdrop
The troops defending there are a battalion, so there is not much need for logistical supplies. However, judging from the nature of the mission, it seems that I will be staying in that mountain area for a long time.
There must be a supply line, but I just don't know when I will be able to contact the supply force once. To be on the safe side, everyone also brought enough food and water, just in case.
Ammunition is also sufficient to ensure your own combat firepower, night vision devices, mines and other things are naturally essential.
As soon as they were ready, the Black Saber squad immediately left the dormitory and entered the barracks, looking for the location of the third battalion.
Everyone will go to that area with the troops of the third battalion.
The other party's movements were already under his own surveillance, and one of the troops had already headed towards the mountainous area. Due to the limitations of the terrain, the opponent's speed is not very fast, as long as you hurry up, you can deploy before the enemy arrives.
The commander of the third battalion has already determined the location of the battlefield, and now the first task is to rush to that side, so the speed of the troop assembly is also very fast. After all, the various units have been on standby for the past few days, and all the work that should be done has been done, and as soon as the order came, the troops were quickly assembled and boarded the plane.
There is only one path in the battlefield area, and it is winding and difficult to walk. If you go by car, you may not be able to catch it. In order to seize time, the troops chose the method of airborne, so that the troops could be put into the battlefield as soon as possible. As for the supply line in the back, there is no big problem in continuing to follow up later.
After all, all the soldiers have a certain amount of food on them, and it is no problem to hold on for two or three days.
Boarding the transport plane, the Black Saber squad sat down with the rest of the troops. The plane quickly ran onto the runway, accelerated, and then lifted off.
The soldiers all clutched their guns in their hands and carried parachutes on their backs. No one was talking loudly. They are all doing what they are doing, or whispering to the person next to them.
Zhang Tianhai opened the map and asked everyone to come over: "Write it down." This whole mountainous area is our range of activity, and we can open fire immediately when we encounter an enemy, but we have fewer people, so don't shoot rashly. It is necessary to check if there are any other unknown enemy forces in the vicinity. After landing, we rendezvoused at coordinates 775,498, which was a low place, obscured by two small mountain packs, and about 500 meters away was a three-way road, remembering these features. After the assembly, we should not get too close to the troops of the third battalion, so that our movement would not be helpful. Moreover, except for us. There will also be four teams of scouts on both flanks of the troops, and three teams of scouts on the front, pay attention to the identification of friend and foe, don't hit the wrong person. ”
Everyone nodded, took out their notebooks, recorded the coordinates, and then returned to their places and sat quietly.
The commander of the third battalion walked back from the cabin at this time. "We'll be at our destination in about thirty minutes, now assign the task." ”
"All in a row. Hold the intersection of the trail. When you reach the location, cut off the path with a pile of rocks and dirt, so that the opponent's vehicles and tanks can drive safely. The second company went to the mountain bag on the left side to form highland fire, and the third company was divided into two groups, and the second platoon was on the right side of the first company. A few small hills over there belong to yours, and the third row goes to the left of the second company. You have no position, and as soon as the battle begins, you begin to guerrilla attacks and harass the enemy. As long as you can contain some of the opponent's firepower, if you get too much blow, you will immediately retreat, return to the left side of the second company, and plug the gap that comes from that side. ”
"Do you understand your mission?" The battalion commander shouted.
"Understood!" All the soldiers responded.
"Good!" The battalion commander nodded, turned around and returned to the inside of the cabin.
Zhang Tianhai, on the other hand, was watching on the map, and his fingers kept moving back and forth on the map. It didn't take long for him to know where all the troops were deployed.
"Tsk." Zhang Tianhai pouted: "If the enemy wants to make a detour and sneak attack from the side, then the bypass road will be five kilometers long." In this kind of terrain, no matter how fast the troops move, it will be an hour later. Their own reconnaissance planes are not vegetarians, and it is estimated that when they get halfway around, the troops here will know.
The three rows of people who are free from the outside are for this group of people. The battalion commander did not give them a fixed position, so that they could always be mobile, and no matter which side the enemy was outflanking, they could arrive before him and plug the gap.
Of course, there is a relatively obvious problem with this deployment, that is, all directions must successfully block the enemy's attack. If one side is the first to be breached, then the troops in the other directions will also suffer.
It's a lot of pressure......
"Boom ......"
Bursts of roaring gradually sounded outside the transport plane. Everyone turned their heads to look, and immediately saw several fighter planes, flying parallel to the transport plane.
This is an escort fighter, and at the same time, after the start of the battle, it will also form an air force over the combat area to block the invasion of the enemy's reconnaissance aircraft, so as to most effectively cover the ambush of ground troops.
There are basically no fighter wings in the opponent's garrison and the exposed bases in the rear, and even if there are fighter units hidden in the unknown bases, the distance will be very far, at least so far, our own radar has not found any traces of the opponent's fighter sorties, so the air battlefield is basically impossible to form. Since its own airfield is very close to the battlefield, the air force can rush to the airspace over the combat area at a faster speed, seize air supremacy, and at least block all air targets in a short period of time, so that the opponent's aerial reconnaissance planes cannot enter the area for a while.
In this case, the opponent's reconnaissance system will be paralyzed for a period of time, and this place will be blank, which will be quite beneficial to the ambush and preparation of the troops.
Approaching the combat airspace, the side of the fuselage of the escorting fighter planes departed from the side of the transport plane, forming a protective ring in the surrounding airspace, and the radar was fully turned on to detect all enemy aircraft that might be approaching in the vicinity. At the same time, the soldiers on the transport plane have also stood up.
"Three minutes to get to the location, all ready!" The battalion commander shouted.
The hatch has been opened, and the red light next to it is on. The soldiers tightened their weapons and equipment, clutched their parachute harnesses, and looked at the lights.
Time passed little by little, and finally, the prompt light turned green, and the battalion commander standing by the hatch immediately shouted: "Jump!" ”
The first soldier jumped decisively.
"Jump! Jump! Jump! ”
With the shouts of the battalion commander, one soldier jumped out of the plane. The parachute quickly opened, leaving patches of dandelion-like soldiers on the trajectory of the transport plane's flight, holding the parachute, and slowly landing towards the ground.
The Black Saber Squad was at the back of the line, and when all the soldiers jumped out of the plane, they were the only ones left.
The battalion commander looked at Zhang Tianhai and the others standing in front of him and nodded: "Good luck!" Radio contact at any time. Jump! ”
Zhang Tianhai immediately stepped out and jumped out. The people behind him also jumped out of the plane one by one, and finally, the battalion commander and the soldiers behind made a gesture, and he was the last to jump out.
The cabin doors closed, and the transport plane began to turn around and prepare to return, leaving only the soldiers still falling in mid-air and the fighters in the nearby airspace.
One after another, the soldiers fell to the ground, and immediately began to pack their parachutes, take them all away, and make peace with the troops towards their positions.
Yang Hao's landing point is on the mountainside of a mountain that is not very high, and the parachute is fortunately not hung by a tree next to it, otherwise it will be a little troublesome to recover. However, this kind of landing point with a slope is actually very poor, Yang Hao couldn't control his body when he just landed, and slid down the slope for as much as ten meters before lying firmly on the ground.
The slope is not too big, and you can go down directly from here. Yang Hao stabilized his position, put away the parachute, grabbed his bag and began to descend the mountain.
Open the map and confirm his location, and then Yang Hao rushed towards the meeting place. When he arrived, the three of them, Night Meteor, Gavin, and Milan, were already waiting here.
The rest of the people were all assembled within ten minutes. The parachute in hand was thrown at this place, and the team immediately began to move, moving towards the right side of their predetermined position.
Zhang Tianhai has already seen a place, it is a mountainside, hidden in this place, you can see the whole picture of a long path, if the enemy comes from this side, basically can not avoid his own firepower and reconnaissance, and the terrain in other places nearby is also quite obvious, if someone comes, basically can do the prophetic sense.
Intelligence from the rear also came in time. The vanguard of the enemy was still about thirty kilometers away, and all of them had more than an hour to prepare at speed.
It should be enough. The assembled three battalions began to count the number of people, and then began to lay out the battlefield.
According to the intelligence, the vanguard in front of him had about two battalions of troops, which was much more than his own. But their terrain is very poor, basically there is no place to charge and dodge, their own battalion is here, and you really don't want to figure it out for a while. There are also a small number of self-propelled guns in the camp, and this is the fire that must be stopped. A company of soldiers had already begun to destroy the road, and a large amount of gravel was pried down from the nearby hill, or directly blown up with grenades, so that the road was full of stones, some of which were also very large, and fell in the middle of the road, and it was impossible to clear the road for a while.
With these stones, don't even think about stepping on this side with self-propelled guns and other things. (To be continued......)
