The 464 evolved into a special operation with heavy firepower
"Where did they get their heavy weapons?" shouted Graev, hearing Sergei's words in the communication channel, while looking for the position of the opposing sniper. "They're not mercenaries?"
"Mushatov, fire suppression!" Sergei didn't have time to think about it, "Oglie, send a message to the semaphore flags and let them cut off the other party's retreat." Don't let them run. ”
"Captain, Ogliel has died. ”
"What?" Sergei looked at where he had been, and Ogre was tilting his head against the rock next to him, motionless.
Even if you have an infrared telescope, you are not a scope.
At a distance of hundreds of meters, the gun has a sight with a low-light night vision function, which is not very useful at all.
......Grumman's soldiers, who were carrying at least ten bazookas, were ordered to fire rockets at several previously exposed firing points at almost the same time.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
A series of explosions made the entire mountain on the side of the river crab mercenary group brighten, and the flames of the explosion made the surroundings very clear.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
When the rocket exploded, Graev spotted several exposed enemies by the light of the fire, aimed at the first target, fired without hesitation, and then adjusted the muzzle of the gun and quickly fired at the next target.
It was only when the third shot was fired that the first target fell.
"What the hell, this is still a special forces? with so many heavy weapons. Liao Dong, who has not come back to his senses until now, never thought that the other party would carry so many heavy weapons. At this moment, an exclamation came from the headset, "Three stunned!"
"What's wrong with the three stunned?" Liao Dong was anxious.
As soon as the battle began, some team members died?
"Three stunned, please answer when you receive it!" in the headset, there was no response.
There is only silence.
"Gun grenades! Fire at the opponent's fire point, machine gunners cover, assault group, touch them, kill them!" At this time, Liao Dong could not tolerate the slightest sadness, "Sniper, pay attention, when the grenade explodes, kill the target that I can see!"
The River Crab Mercenary Regiment also carries some bazookas, but there are not many of them, this is for anti-armor, and they must not be used now.
The 40MM grenade, which had not yet been finalized and provided to them for combat experiments and to evaluate combat effectiveness, became the most useful thing at this time.
THE ANTI-PERSONNEL GRENADE HAS A TOTAL WEIGHT OF 360 GRAMS, A MINIMUM FIRING DISTANCE OF 70 METERS, A MAXIMUM FIRING RANGE OF 380 METERS, AND A WARHEAD CONTAINING 400 STEEL BALLS WITH A DIAMETER OF 3.5MM, WITH AN EFFECTIVE KILLING RADIUS OF 12 METERS. What's more, unlike the old-fashioned grenade, this thing needs to be fired with an empty cartridge, which can be directly put on the muzzle of the gun and fired with live ammunition. An effective heavy support weapon belonging to the special operations forces.
When the River Crab Mercenary Regiment was dispatched, all combatants carried five of them, except for the communication soldiers, machine gunners, and snipers.
Originally, it was intended to be used to block the pursuers when retreating, but unexpectedly, the battle became fierce from the beginning, and when it was dark, individual night vision devices could not see the enemy hundreds of meters away, and could only rely on the light of the explosion to find the enemy.
"Boom!"
As the first explosions rang out, a barrage of grenades continued to fall on the opposite hill.
With each grenade exploding, hundreds of small steel balls spread out in the surrounding area as the flames flashed.
It's just that there are many stones on the mountain, and the diffusion range of small steel balls is not very good.
"Did you meet the guerrillas?" Seeing that the opponent's firepower was so strong, even Sergei was a little suspicious. "What kind of heavy firepower are they using? rockets?"
"Captain, the power of the rockets will not be small. "Someone reminded the captain.
"Machine gunner, suppress fire! Assault group, touch it!" In such a situation, Sergei did not have a good way.
At this time, ordinary special forces equipped with automatic firepower are simply impossible, although the distance is not far, but they can't see each other.
It's all heavy firepower and long-range sniper power performances.
Grumman's team is equipped with a total of four light machine guns, and the entire squad has a total of 26 people, except for the captain and deputy leader, the rest have a combat team of six people, each equipped with a sniper and a machine gunner.
In order to cover the assault group to get ahead, the four light machine guns fired constantly, and with each fire, the machine gunner would shift his position very quickly to avoid giving the opposing sniper opportunity.
The machine gunners on both sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and from a distance, two hills three hundred meters apart were constantly flashing with fire.
Each tongue of fire will be attacked by the opposing machine gunner, and even the sniper will take the time to shoot while waiting for the enemy sniper to attack.
For a while, machine gunners and snipers on both sides came and went, and from time to time there was the sound of explosions of bazookas and grenades.
"Boss, this can't go on. Once it gets dawn, it will be very disadvantageous for us!Why don't you evacuate first?" "They have too many heavy weapons. Once you wait until dawn, you can call in air support, or even artillery support. ”
"Is there another team on the battlefield?" Liao Dong also knew that it would not be good for them to drag it out.
But now there is only a stalemate.
"Not yet. ”
"Then keep waiting, pay attention to your surroundings, and don't get dumplings. "It's not that Liao Dong doesn't want to retreat, but once he encounters other mercenaries who surround them in the process of retreating, it's over.
There are obstacles in front, and there are pursuers in the back, and they can't even slip away.
Sergei had been hiding behind rocks and observing the other side, and he had fought many times with the Tajik guerrillas led by Massoud, and he was very accustomed to the way the other side fought.
But now it seems that the other side is not a guerrilla at all.
It is certain that the other party is the mysterious river crab mercenary group.
"Contact the semaphore and ask them if they have arrived, why they haven't launched an attack now! The other side has more heavy firepower than us!"
The problem is that now, the two sides are evenly matched, and even in terms of heavy support firepower, they have more bazookas than heavy machine guns, but fewer rockets.
"Da Da Da ......"
At this moment, one of Grumman's machine gunners moved not far from Sergei, opened fire on the opposite side, and was about to move, when a grenade exploded in front of him, and the machine guns were blown away......
His men were killed in front of his eyes, and Sergei had nothing to do.
When you can't see it, automatic rifles shoot indiscriminately, and it's useless at all.
"Captain, do you want to call in fighter support?" Graev felt that in the current situation, it was best to direct the fighters to bomb the opposite hill.
Artillery support, too far to reach.
And it's a serious threat to them.
"What if the signal flag touches it?" and accidentally injured them......
"If they enter the battlefield, it is impossible not to contact us, the battlefield is too chaotic right now. "They should have arrived at the designated position a long time ago and attacked from the other side, but so far there has been no movement." If this continues, we will make wedding dresses for them. ”
Although both sides were Soviet special forces, the signal flag was very unsatisfactory to Grumman.
Grumman is more well-funded than any other army, has the best weaponry, and even has the best treatment, all made up of officers.
The newly established signal flag, which has not been established for many years, is naturally not convinced.
If it weren't for the fact that Karmal's attack on the Panjshir Gorge was too important to the Soviet army's withdrawal plan, it would have been impossible for the top two special operations forces in Afghanistan and the elite company of the reconnaissance unit of the 40th Army to jointly exterminate the river crab mercenary group, find the whereabouts of the leader and core backbone of the Tajik guerrillas, and guide the bombing of fighter planes.
"Call fighter support. Thinking that the semaphore flag might be watching the excitement, Sergei finally made a decision.
The two sides continued to exchange fire, but the intensity of the fire was much lower than at the beginning.
The distance between the two sides is not far in a straight line, but the distance from the summit to the junction at the foot of the mountain is not short, especially since both sides are crawling in the dark.
Less than a kilometer away from the direction of the river crab mercenary group, there were more than a dozen soldiers, who were hiding on a low hill to watch the excitement.
Although I couldn't see the exchange of fire between the two sides, I could hear it very clearly.
"Grumman's bastards, they've finally met their opponents! they think they're armed with more heavy weapons?" said one of the people in the dark.
"These bastards have turned the special operation into a heavy firepower competition, and it is estimated that there is no one in the whole world. Do they really know what special operations are?" the other grumbled quietly, "Keno, are we just watching? ”
"Chekov, those bastards of the River Crab Mercenary Regiment, we have fought each other, and you should know their vigilance. According to our intelligence, their entire squad of 26 people, how many people did you hear firing?If you touch it, those heavy firepower will come towards us, how wronged?" Kino sighed, "Let the Grumman bastards consume a little more, and it will start to dawn in twenty minutes, and then touch it." ”
"But the other party ......"
"Alright. These bastards don't deserve to be our opponents if they can turn special operations into positional warfare, if it weren't for the heavy firepower......" Keno didn't care about the agreement with Grumman.
In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to touch it, but now that he touches it, once he is hit by the opponent's grenades and rockets, he will die too unjustly.
Who would have thought that those bastards of the River Crab Mercenary Regiment would carry so much heavy firepower in every operation?
There are also a lot of grenades and whatever, as well as gun grenades with a range of hundreds of meters, bazookas......
"Haven't found another team yet?" Liao Dong, who had been observing the other party, was a little anxious.
It was less than twenty minutes before dawn came.
