Chapter 267: The Test Is Coming
PS: The fourth more offered, the next one, and then ask for a qiē, and have to be cheeky to ask for rewards and magic points, I'm afraid that I can't be on the newcomer list without these, for the only list that can be on, I'm fighting, ask the brothers to support it, thank you.
Zero casualties can only be thought about after all, a large-scale live-fire exercise can cause casualties, let alone a real battle, although the enemy will collapse at the first touch, or even flee from the wind, but casualties are still inevitable.
It was almost two hours from the time the attack was launched until it got dark, and during that time, there were only seven casualties, two dead, three seriously wounded, and two lightly wounded, which is almost negligible for the number of combatants already engaged.
After dark, Gao Yang did not give the order to consolidate the results of the battle, but ordered the companies except the teaching company to continue to attack, but only to reduce the intensity of the attack, and the order given to the teaching company was to expand the scale of the operation in the night battle and take a more active offensive than during the day.
After the training company was equipped with captured night combat equipment, coupled with the field equipment specially purchased for them, the whole company had the ability to fight at night, and at night, it was the time when the teaching company could exert its decisive strength.
Although the Teaching Company advanced deeper and encountered far more and stronger resistance than other companies, under the leadership of Li Jinfang, the Teaching Company almost swept away the enemy in front of it with a crushing posture.
The Teaching Company had gone deep alone, and they had advanced along Highway 1 and had taken control of the coastal strip in the northwest corner of Bososa.
For the Skeleton Gang, which has more capacity at sea. Controlled the coastal area of Bossosa. This means that ammunition supplies can be delivered directly from the sea to the city of Bossosa at any time. Delivered directly to the hands of the teaching company.
It was only after five hours of fighting that the Skeleton Gang had taken control of the entire northwest corner of Bossosa, and the Teaching Company was extending its position forward, and on the satellite map held by Gao Yang, it looked like a Chinese-style kitchen knife, the position of the blade was the Standing Army, and the position of the handle of the knife was the Teaching Company.
With the standing army in full bloom in the city of Bossosa, Grolev divided the artillery into four parts. It also entered the city to provide artillery support for the troops entering Bossosa, but after entering the city, the artillery had few opportunities to exert its might.
Now the teaching company is the spearhead and core of the attack, Grolev personally with five mortars and five rocket launchers, following behind the teaching company ready to support at any time, and most of Cui Bo's sniper team was also attracted to the past, although it was a night battle, but the teaching company's front changed faster than during the day.
Gao Yang still guarded outside Bososa with seven companies as reserves. The progress was too smooth, and he felt a little bored. But boredom is boring, but Gao Yang did not dare to relax his vigilance at all, because according to Ulyanko's information, there should be at least two mercenary groups in Bososa City, but until now, the mercenary group has not appeared.
The enemy's mercenary group is like a thorn in Gao Yang's heart, although he doesn't know the strength of the mercenary group found by the enemy, and the number is a little, but Gao Yang naturally regards the hostile mercenaries as the biggest enemy, if the local mercenary group can't be found and annihilated, no matter how smooth the current progress is, it is false, in case the mercenary group found by the Mocadi faction has a large number of people, and the strength is strong enough, it is not good that the skeleton gang really can't stop the counterattack launched by the mercenaries.
A long time had passed, but there had been no reports of an exchange of fire with the enemy's suspected mercenaries, and Gao Yang had no choice but to order the various companies to be on standby.
The time slowly came to twelve o'clock, although after a long battle, and after entering the night battle mode, the casualties of the standing army began to increase, and forty-six people had lost their combat effectiveness, but the morale of the skeleton gang was high, and they did not feel tired at all, and had no intention of stopping the fight.
When the time happened to be twelve o'clock, Gao Yang's headphones, which had not sounded for a long time, suddenly rang.
"The second company reports that we have about sixty captives here who have asked to join the battle, no, it cannot be said that they are prisoners, they surrendered to us on their own initiative, but they say that they are not Mocati, but only civilians from Bossosa, and they are asking to join us in the battle and attack the Mokadians, sir, should we accede to their request, please instruct, over. ”
Almost everyone in Somalia has a gun, and the Mocadi do not have uniform uniforms, so how to distinguish between the armed members of the Mocadi and the civilians is really a problem, so when there is a group of people who claim to be civilians and not Mocadi people, it is impossible to identify them, but Gao Yang does not intend to identify them, since there are people who are willing to join the fight against the Mokadians, then join, welcome.
"Let them join the battle, they are all locals, they are familiar with the terrain, you can ask them more to see if you can know the distribution of the enemy's forces, but be careful, we must explain our rules to these people, we must not let them burn and loot, and if this happens, shoot them on the spot. ”
"Yes, sir, one more thing, one of these guys said that he had seen a lot of foreigners, many of them white, who had just arrived the other day, and I thought that might be useful to you. ”
Gao Yang almost jumped up when he heard this, wasn't it the news that he was waiting for, and the company commander of the report actually put this most important situation to the end.
"What? Quickly ask him where those people are, and ask them how many they are, and quickly, after you ask clearly, send me back those who have seen foreigners, as quickly as possible!"
"Yes, sir!"
The headset temporarily returned to calm, and the company commander of the second company had already asked about the possibility of mercenaries who defected, but while Gao Yang was anxiously waiting, Li Jinfang suddenly sent back the news.
"I'm a toad, the vanguard of the teaching company has encountered strong resistance, the losses are relatively large, the tactics and morale of the enemy encountered are very different from the previous enemy, it is very likely to be a mercenary, but at the moment I can't confirm the number and identity of the enemy, I'm rushing to find out the situation, over!"
After Li Jinfang hurriedly finished speaking, the signal of the commander of the second company also came in, and he said urgently: "The number of those foreigners is about a hundred or more, Mocadi appeared with those people, and the enemy is well-armed, it must be combatants, but the people who saw it did not carefully count the number of those foreigners, and the place where he saw those foreigners was near the port, but he didn't know where they went." ”
The messages on the walkie-talkie are all shared, and the company-level commanders can also communicate with each other, so Gao Yang didn't need to repeat it to Li Jinfang again, he immediately shouted on the walkie-talkie: "Toad, you heard it, the enemy encountered by your unit is very likely to be these people, be careful, shrink the battle line, and wait for reinforcements! Big dog, you know how to do it!"
Gao Yang understands that the real tough battle has finally come, and it is time to put the last reserves into the battlefield. (To be continued......)
