By the time Major Dennis reacted, he had already rushed more than ten meters, and the only thing he had time to do was to lie down. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After climbing down, the major realized that the artillery fire was very heavy, and at least four, perhaps four, twin machine guns were firing at the landing helicopter.

In an instant, a rain of bullets enveloped four MH-60s.

Not to mention the helicopter, those US officers and soldiers who did not have time to leave the helicopter were immediately torn to shreds. It wasn't until four helicopters caught fire and exploded that the artillery fire stopped abruptly.

After a short pause, four machine guns opened fire again.

This time, the artillery fire was aimed at the two CH-47s, which flew less than two kilometers.

Although the pilots on the CH-47 saw the battle in the rear when the MH-60 fleet was hit, and immediately lowered the flight altitude and increased the flight speed, the CH-47 was an ordinary heavy transport helicopter, which could not fly and was not flexible enough.

Phosphor shells arc in the air.

When the shells caught up, the two CH-47s barely managed to make an evasive maneuver, and then they were hit by the shells, burning and crashing into Upper New York Bay.

Seeing that two CH-47s were shot down, Dennis was stunned.

The sound of artillery dissipated again, and the guns rang out.

The US officers and men who were already guarding the ring line opened fire aimlessly in all directions, and only a few veterans who had been on the battlefield and had actual combat experience aimed their guns at the direction where the machine guns were, and the two grassroots officers were still gathering their soldiers and preparing to use bazookas to kill the opponent's machine guns.

Dennis grabbed his rifle and took a deep breath, ready to join the nearest group of officers and soldiers.

It was only before he got up that he hesitated.

The crisp sound of the M4 carbine and the M16 rifle was mixed with the sound of some other guns, which was relatively low and did not fire very often.

Obviously, there are terrorists nearby, and they are not bad in quality, knowing how to shoot with a point, and not strafe.

It was this judgment that made Dennis hesitate.

It also saved his life.

Just as he checked the M4 carbine and was about to get up, more than a hundred meters away, the second lieutenant officer, who was guiding the target for the soldier carrying the bazooka, suddenly collapsed.

It was too far away, and the light was dim, and Dennis didn't see it clearly.

It didn't matter, because in the blink of an eye, the soldier with the bazooka was also knocked out.

Sniper!?

Dennis was startled, and before he could react, another junior officer was knocked out.

Because it was just over fifty meters away, and next to the officer was a burning MH-60, Dennis could see very clearly that the bullet had hit the officer in the face, probably a little below his forehead. The force was so great that it not only pierced the officer's head, but also pierced the helmet.

It was about half a second before Dennis heard the gunshots.

The sound of gunfire from a sniper rifle, and certainly from a sniper rifle of 7.62 mm caliber using NATO standards, when firing.

On the battlefield in Afghanistan, Dennis used an M24 sniper rifle and set a combat record for killing Taliban fighters 1,100 meters away.

It's a pity that Dennis is not a sniper.

In that fight, he climbed on the ground of the base's watchtower and, under the guidance of a Delta commando, shot the armed man with an AK-47 with a sniper rifle.

Hearing the gunshots, Dennis didn't know where the snipers were ambushing, and didn't even judge the distance of the firefight.

Anyway, Dennis knew that there were snipers nearby, and they were very good snipers, so he gave up his foolish plan to get up.

For the US officers and soldiers who were guarding around the landing site, it was not so lucky.

As the grassroots officers commanding the battle were killed by snipers one by one, the 100 or so US officers and men who had successfully landed were suddenly leaderless. What's worse is that the landing site is relatively open, and when the US troops were attacked, they had not yet reached the tree line around the park, so there was no place to hide.

For snipers, people in the open area are undoubtedly the most ideal targets.

U.S. officers and soldiers are still firing blindly, and the sound of sniper rifle gunfire is getting more and more intense. As the U.S. officers and soldiers fell one by one, Dennis also discovered that there were no less than twenty snipers ambushed on the outskirts of the park. If you count on a sniper team of two, there are at least forty terrorists.

This amount is far more than Dennis's advance estimate.

Although before leaving, Dennis realized that there would not be too few terrorists on Manhattan Island, maybe there were hundreds, after all, it was possible to blow up thirteen bridges and tunnels at the same time, and evacuated vehicles and personnel before that, and then attacked the police station, which required enough manpower, but the U.S. military counterattack was very fast, and before Dennis set off, the battle on the island was not over, and it was impossible for terrorists to preset an ambush position on the side of Turret Park, so there would not be many terrorists coming in time.

This is not the case, and the terrorists seem to know that American troops will land in the turret park.

If it wasn't out of the ghost and leaked intelligence, it was the terrorists who had sufficiently advanced detection means to detect the U.S. helicopter and judge that the U.S. military would land in the turret park.

Thinking of this, Dennis decided that he should report to General Copperfield first.

Unfortunately, when he left the helicopter, he only had a single tactical communications radio on him, and the radio used to communicate with General Copperfield was on the signal corps, and the signal corps did not leave the helicopter in time.

The National Guard is not a regular army, and the equipment is naturally inferior.

Although it is possible to make contact with the rear with a single tactical communications radio, a new communication code will need to be entered.

Dennis did not hesitate and immediately set about adjusting the station.

The battle outside continued, and the US officers and men were like headless flies, not knowing where the enemy was, and the circular defensive line built was useless.

In less than five minutes, more than half of the US officers and soldiers had already been killed.

The remaining US troops have also completely lost the will to fight.

Several new recruits were huddled on the ground, screaming with their rifles, and the less daring were still crying loudly. Even those veterans who have been on the battlefield are so pressed that they can't hold their heads up. In order to survive, they had to hide behind the remains of their fallen comrades.

It's a pity that the corpse can't stop the bullet, let alone the grenade that comes from the projectile.

When the FOS fighters launched the assault, they launched a round of strikes with gun grenades and gun-mounted grenade launchers, eliminating most of the American veterans hiding behind the corpses.

Dennis adjusted the radio station as he observed the situation on the battlefield.

Seeing the terrorists launch an assault, Dennis dragged the M4 carbine over, turned on the safe, and continued to adjust the radio station after holding it handy.

The landing operation had failed, and the news had to be sent back to General Copperfield to find another solution.

It makes more sense to report to the general on the battlefield than to fight terrorists.

At this time, the remaining American troops were also thrown into battle.

Terrorists have the audacity to blow up bridges and tunnels, attack police stations, shoot down helicopters, and will certainly not spare the US military. In the face of the inevitable result of death, the US officers and men had no choice.

Unfortunately, the resistance of the US officers and soldiers did not cause much trouble to the FOS fighters who assaulted.

Because night had fallen, the US military stayed in the open area, and there were four burning helicopter wreckage behind them, so all the US officers and soldiers wore low-light night vision devices.

Night vision devices are completely worthless for FOS fighters.

As a huge flare exploded over Turret Park, a blinding white light illuminated the entire Lower Manhattan and stabbed the eyes of the American officers and soldiers.

This sudden blow completely broke up the resistance of the US military.

Dennis had his back to the battlefield and was adjusting the radio, and although it wasn't affected much, it was still white in front of him after the white light flashed.

Not to mention those US officers and soldiers who are facing the battlefield and are raising their guns to shoot.

The blinding effect of the flares lasts about 30 seconds to a minute, enough for FOS fighters to break through the U.S. lines and kill U.S. officers and soldiers who are in a position to be captured.

Major Dennis was in a slightly better situation, and after about fifteen seconds, he was able to see what was in front of him.

At this time, he also fumbled to adjust the radio station.

When he turned on the switch, he immediately heard the cacophony of electricity.

Electromagnetic interference!?

The Major was horrified, and then it occurred to him that they were not facing terrorists, but a group of soldiers with rich combat experience and superb combat skills.

Although terrorists also use electromagnetic interference, they are definitely not experts.

It is certainly not easy to interfere with the US military's individual tactical communication radios. If a terrorist has this ability, then he is not a terrorist.

Shocked, Dennis still thought that he should report the situation to General Copperfield.

If the general continues to believe that Manhattan is occupied by a group of terrorists and continues to use tactics against the terrorists, more American officers and soldiers will become cannon fodder.

Unfortunately, Dennis couldn't contact General Copperfield at all.

To make matters worse, the battle for the turret park is over. When he grabbed the M4 carbine and was about to look for other communication equipment, even a civilian mobile phone, he saw a terrorist with a rifle walking towards him, and more than a dozen terrorists were cleaning up the battlefield.

Dennis hesitated for a moment, knowing it wouldn't end much better.

Do you raise your guns to resist, or do you want to be caught?

A moment of hesitation is tantamount to making a choice.

Before Dennis could raise the M4 carbine, a cold barrel was pressed against his temple. It was so close that the major could even hear the sound of the trigger being pressed.

In an instant, a lot of thoughts came to Dennis's mind.

He felt that this was the last moment of his life on earth. As the trigger is pressed, the bullet will pass through the skull of the head, turning him into one of more than a hundred corpses of American soldiers killed in action.

The guns didn't go off, and Dennis didn't return to God's arms.

"Don't kill him, we need a living mouth."

It's English, very authentic English, with a bit of a Virginia accent.

Dennis opened his eyes and saw a Western face.

He only glanced at it, then was picked up and dragged away from Turret Park.

Although Dennis was not able to send the news out, Copperfield, who was on the other side of the river, already knew that the occupation of Manhattan was definitely not an ordinary group of terrorists.
