Chapter 871: Sparrow Battle

If you look down from above, you can see EO's mercenaries forming a charging arrow and rushing towards the building. But when they were still more than 20 meters away from the building, suddenly there was a burst of strafing fire from the side, and all of them were knocked to the ground.

"Where's the gun?" said Thomas, angrily shouting over the walkie-talkie. He still thought that his opponents were all in the building.

However, on the top of the warehouse, the direction of the fire team also sounded the sound of star gunfire. If Thomas could see, he would see that the members of the fire team were seriously aiming ahead, but behind them a figure crawled out, using a dagger or a pistol to take a roll call.

The first to notice that something was wrong was the helicopter. Without having time to think about it, and not considering that he had not yet flown to the combat position, the heavy machine gun shooters on the helicopter immediately opened fire on several assassins.

The sudden gunfire was loud, as if it were a signal, and the first round of fire points arranged by the army all pushed away the camouflage and began to fire wildly at the targets they could find.

It was completely unprepared, as if there were enemies all around. Thomas shouted in a hurry: "Withdraw, all withdraw!" helicopter cover ——!"

Thomas was already feeling bad, and he had accidentally fallen into an ambush. Now it is no longer a question of completing the task, but of bringing the rest of the people back.

After a little calm, Thomas listened to the gunfire around him, his fire team had all been muted, and more than ten machine guns had appeared on the opposite side, and there were bursts of fire.

Thomas was already so angry that he grabbed the messenger behind him: "Fuck, you put a trap on Lao Tzu? There are so many machine guns? are they all veterans?"

A connoisseur like Thomas is not afraid of guns, but of machine guns. In particular, the machine gun is a point fire, not a strafing fire like a novice on the battlefield, which makes them even more chilled. Generally, these are veterans, with excellent psychological quality on the battlefield and accurate marksmanship, so they will use point shooting, which saves bullets and can be more efficient.

However, the mercenaries of EO really lived up to their reputation, and they did not panic when retreating, and generally took several people to alternate cover, taking turns firing to suppress the machine gun points that had appeared. The battle became fierce, and the casualties were not as great as they had been. And the helicopter also lowered the altitude and threw itself into battle with its own on-board machine gun.

EO slowly retracted, and in doing so, his circle of defense slowly tightened. Thomas also slowly calmed down. Ask loudly: "Each combat group, report its casualties." ”

"Six people were killed and wounded in the stormtrooper!"

"One group hurts one person!"

"There were no casualties in the second group!"

"Three sets of ......"

After all the reports were completed, Thomas did his calculations and found that there was an unexpected surprise, and the casualties were still within the range of bearing. After a moment's hesitation, he ordered again: "Knock out their machine gun points with airborne rockets and pull them all out one by one!"

There is no doubt that at this time Thomas was already in the state of mind like a gambler. It would be a tragedy for him to go back like this. If, after the tragic casualties, the goal can finally be achieved, then it can be reversed, which should still be worth it.

In addition, Thomas is still very confident in the firepower of the helicopter. If air strikes can be guaranteed, it is not impossible to remove those machine gun points. So in the end, he once again chose to attack.

For Thomas, however, today is his black day. Before the words fell, the second round of fire points showed their camouflage again, and fired fiercely at the flanks or rear of the mercenaries.

At the command post in Chinatown, the army was boasting to Fredeke: "Do you foreigners understand? This is called a sparrow war! The army of millions of Japanese devils and the eight million troops of the fruit party has been defeated by our move." ”

In fact, judging from the performance of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea at that time, the light infantry tactics of the People's Liberation Army are already second to none, and in the whole world, if the loveliest group of people are humble to say second, then no one dares to say that they are first. Not even the recognized German soldiers of World War II.

It really depends on the results. Any crowd tactics or any casualties are basically slander. You see, the Japanese army will only carry the American army, but the volunteer army can draw with the steel of the aircraft artillery. It's because of the extremely good light infantry tactics.

Some people may wonder why this is happening? The answer is really simple, that is, since the Red Army, these veterans have evolved infinitely. As long as a battle is fought, no matter how small the scale of the battle is, a two-hour briefing and a 24-hour detailed report will be carried out, mainly to analyze the problems that have arisen in the battle, and then the whole army will have a big discussion, and finally the whole army will conduct a large-scale targeted training. You say that if you continue to evolve like this, how can it not be powerful?

The militia battalions that appeared here were originally mostly veterans, and the rest were trained strictly in accordance with the "Militia Training Manual". The militia training in this era is really a real thing. It's not like ...... in the future?

To get back to the point, EO really suffered from this tactic. The first round of fire is mainly to drive the mercenaries together like sheep, while the second round is the real killer move.

And this time, those mercenaries finally couldn't hold on. There was no care for any alternate cover, and the living people ran to safety. As soon as the helicopters in the sky saw that the situation had changed, they didn't care about it, and launched rockets one after another to cover it.

The situation became extremely chaotic, and no one was following Thomas's orders anymore. In the beginning, EO was not prepared to use those rockets in order to prevent accidental injury to civilians due to the fact that it was fighting in the city. But now that it's time for life and death, who can control so much?

Thomas watched as his men were slaughtered, not even noticing the few fish intestines that had fallen from his head. A seagull croaked a few times in dissatisfaction, as if in protest against the loss of its own food. But the violent explosion that followed made the seagull speed away in fright.

In fact, such a hasty aim, in addition to the relatively large movement, the effect is negligible. However, it was in the favor of those who fled, and the cover that was blown up obscured the view, making it impossible for those firing points to shoot accurately.

However, if you can't shoot accurately, you can shoot blindly. Anyway, in that direction, with a machine gun sweep, you can always catch a few fish that slip through the net.

At this point, the tactics of both sides were invariably changed. Here, according to the plan, the army began to move one after another, entering their own substitute firing points. And in order to ensure the accuracy of shooting, the helicopter has already turned red-eyed, and after paying heavy casualties, it wants to destroy a few "enemies" to save face.
