Chapter 1089: Support First
The pursuit did not last long, and the order to retreat was given from above.
The enemy had retreated completely, and most of the main forces had left the main battlefield. The commanders of the poor Kou Mo chase are very clear that although the enemy is still in a position, the main forces have not suffered much blow, at most they have only weakened their combat effectiveness a little, and even the mortars themselves have not been able to leave much. The core strength has not been hit hard, and naturally there is still the possibility of a comeback.
This is the place where you can engage in a large-scale battle, and if you go any further, the terrain will become very narrow, and if you chase after yourself, you will have a hard time if the enemy shoots back.
Don't forget that the enemy also has self-propelled guns, which are much more powerful than mortars. Although they can't attack during a battle due to terrain restrictions, it doesn't mean that they can't be used.
The second assault was over. The units began to consolidate again, counting the battle losses and waiting for the next enemy offensive.
However, the commanders at all levels more or less have some plans in their hearts.
Although this one did not completely defeat the enemy, it caused considerable trauma to the opponent in terms of numbers. The main thing is that now the morale of the enemy has begun to fall, then ...... It won't be long before you can fight back in full.
Who said they had to stay here? It's just that the enemy's heavy firepower is stronger than his own, and forcing a counterattack will cause him great damage, and even if he wins, it will only be a miserable victory, which is a result that no officer is willing to accept. So the opportunity to counterattack has not appeared so far, and I have to take a defensive position. Wait for the best moment to break the enemy army in one fell swoop.
The battle here was lowered slightly, and the camera returned to Zhang Tianhai and others.
After several hours of continuous marching, everyone had stopped to rest.
Along the way, the sound of artillery explosions was constantly heard from the battlefield behind, and every time an explosion was heard. Basically, they are passed into the ears one by one, and there is no need to think about it, it must be a salvo of artillery fire that will have such an effect.
When he left, the mortars in the hands of the soldiers of the third battalion stationed there could not have this effect, perhaps it was the heavy fire brought by the friendly forces that arrived behind, but it was more likely that it was the sound caused by the enemy's attack.
After all, when he left, he had detected the mortar carried by the enemy.
But these have little to do with everyone, even if you know, you are here now. I can't help at all, so I might as well focus on the tasks that follow.
The mission site was a jungle with relatively lush vegetation, and the location was about twenty kilometers in front of the first line of river defense of the Chinese troops. Numerous special forces have infiltrated this place, and the battle has actually started now.
The enemy's large forces are still behind, and they will not press the front line so quickly, so they are just beckoning themselves to bomb them, which is why such a part of the enemy will appear. It can be said that the battle there is just an outpost battle in the later war, killing the enemy or something. In this kind of battle, the effect is not reflected, and the most important purpose is to improve morale.
Yes, in such a battle, the number of kills will not be very high, but each one will be valuable. Most of the troops dispatched by their own side are special forces. And the other party is also a special squad and an elite unit, and both sides are basically half-catty and eighty-two, which belongs to the battle of top combat power. Whoever wins this victory will undoubtedly be a great boost to the morale of the entire army on our side.
So this battle won't last long, but it must not be lost. All the elite combat power at the hands of General Wang. Except for some of the squads that execute the key figures, most of them have already been committed to this battlefield, and there are also many squads like the Black Saber Squad, which are relatively close, and have also begun to gather in this direction, and it will not be long before the battle there will start to heat up.
For the Black Sabre Squad, the first thing to do now is to go inside the river defense line.
Everyone needs some additional supplies and equipment.
There is no shortage of ammunition or anything, but the combat uniform on the body must be changed. This kind of earthy yellow combat uniform, in the jungle environment, is equivalent to standing out from the crowd, as soon as you enter, it will attract a concentrated fire attack, if you don't want to die, you must change a set of jungle combat uniforms.
If you can find a glydress, it will be the best.
The route is prescribed, and the team follows it all the way. There is no war zone along the way, so it will be relatively safe, only a few places may encounter an attack, but the probability is very small, as long as you pass by a little vigilance, there will be no major problems.
Two days later, in the morning, everyone saw the shadow of the defensive line. Immediately after identifying himself, he was supported by the troops of the defensive line.
In the logistics department, everyone got what they needed. After that, he stayed here for a few hours to rest, watching the bands of soldiers cross the line and head towards the battlefield ahead, disappearing into the jungle.
These people are all special forces, and their goals are very consistent, and they are all where they are going. However, it took a lot of energy to rush all the way over, so I took a break in this defensive line.
It's still relatively safe here for the time being, after all, the defense here is the strongest, and the enemy troops shouldn't be able to die in this place as soon as they come up, so the casualties on both sides will be very heavy, especially the attacking troops, and the probability of defeat will be very high.
So before finding out the weaknesses of the defense here, the other party shouldn't spend a lot of effort here.
After lunch, the Black Saber squad left the defense line and headed for the battlefield.
The distance of 20 kilometers also made everyone walk for more than three hours to arrive. In this kind of densely populated place, the terrain is also very undulating, and the straight line marked on the map does not know how many terrain ups and downs will be experienced, and the speed of travel is naturally greatly reduced.
As we got closer to the battlefield, the sound of gunfire in the distance became obvious, and the sound of battle here was very different from the previous big battlefield.
The gunshots that everyone heard were very rare, all in the form of burst fire, and the locations of the gunshots were very scattered, all of them were not together.
Judging from the sound of gunfire alone, the soldiers fighting on the battlefield are basically not together, scattered, and seem to be fighting separately. If you think about it carefully, this is also relatively normal, although there is radio contact between each friendly army, but the detailed movements of each team are different, so basically few squads can come together, so when encountering the enemy, most of them are just their own squads fighting, maybe there will be friendly troops to help during the battle, but the probability is not particularly high.
Although most of the special forces are gathered here, the number is still a little less than that of the combat area, and in such a large mountainous jungle, these people can't see any changes at all. Especially in the course of the battle, both sides have battle losses and attrition, and the number of people is gradually decreasing, and the friendly troops that can be seen are naturally fewer.
Standing here, Zhang Tianhai once again confirmed the scope and terrain of the battlefield, and then said: "We focus on support, and don't take the initiative to go head-to-head with the enemy. In this way, we will act separately, Shadow and Butterfly, Assassin and Meteor, you will mainly support friendly forces with long-range sniping, and if you have poor vision, try to get closer. The purpose, the first is to kill the enemy, and the second is to find a way to help them out of danger if they are at a disadvantage. Third, if you can't do anything, retreat immediately, give up the rescue, and don't put yourself in it. â
Zhang Tianhai drew a line: "Everyone travels along this line and moves nearby. There are very few mountains encountered on this path, there are few places with narrow terrain, and there are many directions to choose from, so there is no theoretical possibility that ZĂ i will be surrounded by the enemy. The first step is to go to this river first, along the water source, I believe there will be a lot of firefights, and there may be more fierce confrontations here. â
The area of the river in the map is not a short distance from here, and if you follow the route drawn, you need to pass a distance of about thirty or forty kilometers, and you can pass a small village in the middle, these are all crossfire points that will encounter many enemies, and you need to be vigilant when passing by.
Everyone wrote down the route on their map, and Zhang Tianhai nodded: "Okay, let's start acting, you don't necessarily have to follow the route, if you encounter some accidents, you can choose other reasonable directions to move forward, but it's best to move near the route, so that in the event of a war, everyone else can support them faster, just try to avoid this situation." â
Everyone nodded, and after inspecting their weapons, they scattered in place, heading in different directions.
Yang Hao looked at Mu Xi beside him, and Mu Xi also smiled at him, but Mu Xi's face was full of oil paint, and such a smile was not particularly obvious.
Yang Hao also grinned: "There are two of us left, and now it's up to you to search for the enemy." â
Mu Xi was also very dry: "Leave it to me." â
The plants in the jungle are very lush, and the impact on vision is very strict, if you rely on vision alone, the efficiency is too low, and there is a high probability that you will be attacked by the enemy.
Mu Xi does not have such troubles, her hearing is very good, especially in this environment, she will be more sensitive. There aren't many sounds in the jungle itself, and now that there are so many people in the crossfire, the wild animals have begun to flee the area one after another, except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, only some insects and birds are left.
