Chapter 621: Ambush
The troops were urgently transferred, and the assembly area was about ten kilometers east of the city of Guisare, where the British reinforcements landed.
The large army was not mobilized, and it could not be moved, there was only about two hours left, and after a ten-kilometer journey, an ambush would be set up, and more troops might cause chaos, so Gao Yang transferred the seventh company as a reserve, as well as two platoons of the teaching company.
But the most important thing is to pull all the artillery over at any cost.
And, of course, all the people that Distin brought.
In terms of numbers, Gao Yang and them are actually not superior, but they have two armed helicopters and more than a hundred guns, if they can't fight a beautiful ambush battle like this, he simply don't mix.
The distribution of the spoils of war has already been discussed, and Ulyanko played an irreplaceable and crucial role in the trap against the British, not to mention his two helicopter gunships, so Ulyanko took all the helicopter gunships.
Gao Yang's role is also very crucial, but they are participating in the war as mercenaries, and they cannot participate in the distribution of the spoils of war under the premise that the commission has been negotiated, but Abu who came to the front line is very righteous, Gao Yang said that he will not participate in the distribution of the spoils, but Abu wants to share a quarter of their share alive or dead.
Exalted their share of a quarter of the trophy is three tanks.
Abu is really righteous, of course, he was also approved by Majd, so it has to be said that Majd and Abu, the two supreme leaders of the Skull Gang, are really generous and righteous.
The Skeletons also account for a quarter, but all the Skeletons want is victory. In the event of an unfavorable situation in the war. Gao Yang and Ulyanko were able to figure out a way to knock out the British reinforcements before they had time to enter the war. Abu couldn't be more satisfied, so he'd rather not want the loot at all than let the Skeletons do anything.
The so-called quarter of the Skeleton Gang is six cannons, however, the quarter that the Skeleton Gang gets is actually in quotation marks, because the price of six cannons is not as good as a tank, but for the Skeleton Gang. Six cannons are the most useful.
They can't use helicopters for the Skeleton Gang, there are no pilots, and there is no condition to establish a maintenance system, as for tanks, they can't use them, if you want to use tanks, you have to train drivers, you have to prepare a special logistics system for tanks, you have to prepare fuel and the like, but artillery is different. As long as you learn how to use it, the most you can do is buy shells.
As for Distin. They came to fight for free, they paid for it, and they were the most shareholders, and Gao Yang also had to pay for the price that Distin needed to pay for their participation in the war, but from Distin to Gao Yang were willing, because this was a battle for the future of their security company, this battle was very important to the Skeleton Gang, and it was actually more important to them, whether it was to completely break the monopoly of the British in a big way, or whether they would be cut off by the British and their good development momentum, it would depend on this battle.
Gao Yang and the others were very trouble-free, and they took a helicopter to the place where the ambush was planned, and Distin also followed them to the place where the ambush was to be set up, and they had to think about how to set up the ambush first.
There was no shadow of the landing ship on the sea, and the first thing everyone did after landing on the ground was to spread out and observe the terrain.
To set up an ambush, it is not so simple, although it is night, no matter that the moonlight is still strong this night, hundreds of people are ambushed on the beach at once, and you can see it from afar, so you can't get too close to the ambush, and at the same time, you have to try to find a place with cover.
The helicopter was parked almost a kilometer from the coast, and after several people got off the plane, they walked around the neighborhood and soon met again.
After meeting again, everyone shook their heads, the coast of Somalia is really not a good place to ambush, this is a desert, and it is too flat, the sand dunes near the sea are too low for people to hide, and a sand beam high enough to ambush people is two kilometers away from the coastline.
If you want to launch a surprise attack, a thousand meters is already the limit, and no matter how far away the bullets can't hit, when you rush to the combat distance, even if the heavy equipment of the British can't be used, just using people is enough to build a line of defense.
At this time, the person with the most combat experience, and also super rich combat experience in the desert area, and the most experienced in command, is undoubtedly Distin.
After looking at the terrain, Distin was indifferent, looking at Distin's expression, Gao Yang was also a lot relieved, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have paid attention, let's talk about it, how to do it?" ”
Distin pointed to Shaliang, which was enough for people to ambush, and said: "Where are all the artillery arranged, their range is enough, and where are the troops of the Skeleton Gang, where are they arranged, after receiving the order, the artillery will open fire, and the infantry will charge." ”
After arranging the hiding place of the artillerymen, Distin pointed to a place not far from the coast and drew a line, and said with a smile: "As for us, where we are hiding, sixty people, divided into four combat units, is enough to create chaos for those British, and it is a big mess." ”
Gao Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You are planning to bury yourself in the sand." ”
Distin nodded, "That's right, bury in the sand!" ”
Distin's approach is very risky, but they have done it before, and the effect is not bad, and they praise that when they were trained in Israel, after all, it was still too short, they knew that the Israeli special forces had buried themselves in the sand to ambush themselves in extreme circumstances, but they only knew how to do it, and they did not have specific training.
In fact, burying yourself in the sand and training alone is an extremely dangerous thing to do.
It's night, the temperature is not high, it's okay to bury in the sand, there is no big danger, but in the Israeli special forces training syllabus, people are buried in the sand in broad daylight.
Under the direct rays of the sun, when the ground temperature is as high as sixty or seventy degrees, burying people in the sand is fatal, which is equivalent to putting people in the oven, if there is no special equipment, the limit time of people in the sand is five minutes to ten minutes, how long it can last, but also depends on the physique of each person and the ability to endure high temperatures.
On the battlefield, you can only lie in ambush for ten minutes, and after you come out, you may be dehydrated and hot to the point of prostration, such a tactic is completely meaningless, but when training, you still have to come during the day, and you can train in the most difficult state, but now it's night, and the temperature of the sand is not high, even if you bury it for a few hours, it's no problem.
How to ambush in the sand and ambush warfare, Distin and his people have rich experience, after knowing Distin's plan, Gao Yang immediately nodded and said: "Okay, we will ambush in the sand with you, but how to choose the location?" ”
Distin looked at it and said: "Although it is roughly certain that the enemy will land here, but when it actually lands, this point may be a few hundred meters apart, so our men have to be distributed farther, four combat units, to ensure that two combat units can attack the enemy on time, and the rest of the people must be able to quickly reinforce." ”
Gao Yang smiled: "You just decide the location, then, what about the helicopter?" ”
Distin looked at Ulyanko and said, "The helicopter has to stay away, and it can take off when it finds the enemy, what do you think?" ”
Ulyanko nodded and said, "That's right, it has to be far away, I'm just curious, if you plan to bury yourself in the sand, can you guarantee to avoid the observation of the British thermal imaging night vision devices?" ”
Distin smiled and said, "Don't worry, of course we are sure of this, we are fighting in the sand, just as the Russians are familiar with fighting in the snow." ”
Ulyanko nodded again and again, and said: "That's right, okay, the matter on the ground will be handled by you, and the air will be handed over to us, I promise, you will get air support at the first time." ”
After smiling and nodding, Distin turned to Gao Yang and said: "You just said that you want to ambush with us, but I'm afraid this won't work, I need at least one observer who can inform us of the enemy's location at the first time, this task is very important, I believe you can be up to this task." ”
Gao Yang said without hesitation: "Okay, I'm an observer, then, isn't it time for us to establish a reference and divide the coordinates?" ”
Distin looked at his watch and said, "How long will it take for the Skull Gang artillery to arrive?" Also, their accuracy is enough, right? I don't want to be killed by my own shells. ”
Gao Yang said with a smile: "Don't worry, now the artillery of the Skull Gang is very good, let's determine their positions first, and then divide the coordinates for them in advance, no problem." ”
After finishing speaking, Gao Yang said on the walkie-talkie: "Three artillery, report your location." ”
"Report, we are still six kilometers away from our destination, full speed ahead, the delivery of goods is in good condition, and we are guaranteed to arrive within the scheduled time, and it is completed."
If the artillery wants to transfer the position, it has to push and drag the mortars and rocket artillery to the place, but the benefits of all small artillery are also reflected at this time, and the mobility is strong, although it can only rely on manpower to transfer the position, but the distance of ten kilometers, two hours is enough.
After receiving Zhou Zhou's reply, Gao Yang said: "The artillery is still six kilometers away from here, they are marching in a hurry, and in another hour, they will definitely be able to arrive." ”
Distin smiled and said, "Yes, for a Somali army, it's really very good, I'm surprised that they can march in a hurry, and they can always maintain a rapid marching posture, okay, now we confirm the reference and divide the coordinates." ”
Gao Yang clapped his hands and smiled at everyone in the Satan Mercenary Group: "Guys, you all heard it, let's move, let's solve all the problems tonight, and make a windfall by the way." (To be continued......)
