Chapter 183: Ambush

The platoon commander of the team leader gave an order, An Feng threw away the cigar cigarette butt and looked around. The platoon commander ran over and gave An Feng a submachine gun, and then beckoned An Feng to leave with the team. Several soldiers walked up the mountain road as sharp knives, and it was An Feng's turn to set off, Argyle handed over a special bulletproof suit, An Feng buckled his helmet and put on the bulletproof vest, and Argyle immediately held up a bulletproof umbrella......

The team looked odd with the umbrella, they didn't look like they were on patrol, they didn't look like they were rushing to the rescue, they were escorting a playboy out on an outing. This playboy walked in the middle of the group, more than a dozen soldiers protected him, and he was followed by a big man with a huge black umbrella in his hand.

The team walked on a winding mountain road, and after passing a mountain beam, the platoon commander stopped, randomly ordered four soldiers, and instructed them: "Do you see that ravine, we will go from that ravine next, the four of you will work in pairs, as spearheads, pass over the mountain beams on both sides, and immediately launch signal flares when something happens." ”

Saying this, An Feng suddenly patted the platoon commander on the shoulder, pointed to a mountain beam in the distance, and said, "Don't go to death, there is indeed an ambush." ”

The mountain beam in the distance flickered like a star falling to the ground, flickering quickly, and then vanishing.

The platoon commander is also a veteran, and when he saw the flash, he immediately understood, it was a lens flash like a telescope or a scope, he looked at the umbrella held high by Argyle, and smiled: "Doctor Condon, guess which target I shoot first if I am ambushed on the cliff." ”

Smart people don't need to say much, An Feng nodded kindly, and beckoned Argyle: "Put away the umbrella, it's not good for them to see it." ”

Argyle put away the umbrella, An Feng spread his hand at Argyle, Argyle immediately opened the zipper of his tactical vest, folded the umbrella and put it into the inner pocket of the tactical vest, and as the vest was opened, the platoon commander keenly saw that Argyle's vest was full of dazzling, one by one, the metal tube that looked like an anti-aircraft machine gun bullet was inserted into the left inner pocket, and the right inner pocket was full of round small wine jugs, which were also long fusiform like bullets, but a little flattened.

Argyle took out an item from left to right, An Feng first took the metal pipe, unscrewed the pipe, and poured out a Havana cigar from it, he casually dropped the metal pipe, lit the cigar, unscrewed the flat pot and took a sip of wine, and handed the wine bottle to the platoon leader: "It's mint wine, it's very cool." ”

The platoon commander looked at the green smoke emitted by An Feng worriedly, and persuaded: "Doctor, the green smoke is easy to expose our position and will attract shells." ”

An Feng rolled his eyes: "Is there such a marksman in Iraq?" I don't believe it, which media report do you listen to, some media reports need to be understood in reverse, when he says that Iraqi soldiers have fought the Iran-Iraq war for many years, and each of them is brave and good at fighting, it means that Iraqi soldiers are good at surrendering, and fighting is definitely a puddle of mud. ”

The platoon commander also wanted to persuade, Argyle slapped a big slap and pressed An Feng down under a huge rock behind the mountain beam, he flipped it over, and a small fan appeared in his palm, and the fan blew at the cigarette butt, and the smoke from An Feng was immediately blown away by the fan, and it was so scattered that it could not be found.

An Feng hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't, the Iraqis can't shoot accurately, and they are pointing to the east and the west." If there is no obvious sign, they like to shoot around, but it is easy to injure us by mistake, and once they are given a clear sign, haha, they are definitely not allowed to shoot,. ”

The platoon commander sighed, "Gentleman, how did I meet these two gentlemen."

Annoyed, he left the pair of living treasures...... But in fact, what An Feng wants to say is that at a critical juncture, Argyle is definitely a very good combat power, but in terms of specific application, he can't be allowed to occupy both hands, An Feng would rather take things into his own hands.

Today, Argyle has only an electric fan at hand, and a short or long gun in the other, depending on the situation.

The platoon commander squatting on the side began to call for air support, and after a while, the helicopter flew quickly into the sky, but the plane did not dare to descend too low, only hovering at high altitude, the platoon commander waved his hand, and the soldiers of the two squads ran along the mountain beam, and the rest followed the platoon commander into the ditch, and the three teams communicated with each other through tactical glasses.

An Feng followed the platoon commander's team, and by this time he had already thrown away the ruffian, the submachine gun was loaded, and the pistol was ready to be activated, and he was moving forward quickly behind Argyle.

The helicopter began its second turn, and at this moment, two rockets suddenly appeared in the ravine, and quickly pounced on the helicopter in the air. ”

The helicopter pilot couldn't hear An Feng's shout, he twisted his body, the tail of the plane rotated, avoiding the first rocket, the second rocket hit the spiral wing of the tail, after the explosion raised a cloud of fireworks, the white fog from the tail quickly extinguished the flames, but the helicopter was out of control, the tail rotated back and forth, and slowly fell towards the mountain beam.

When the rockets were raised, a flame erupted from the shining place of the telescope just now, and the platoon commander's team of men and horses looked for rocks to cover their bodies, and the rocks in front of them made a popping sound, and then the gunfire reached the bottom of the valley, and the whole valley was filled with the sound of anti-aircraft machine guns.

"The machine gun is hidden in the cave, and it is the mouth of a cave", everyone has seen the tactical image from the helicopter just now, and from the high altitude, there are no hidden people below, all rocks and mountain beams -- there is only one explanation for this phenomenon: there is a cave above.

The anti-aircraft machine gun hit the plane, at this time the helicopter had lost its mobility, the bullet hit the falling helicopter, the fuselage burst of sparks, and a soldier at the door of the cabin was directly beaten from the plane, although the plane was more than ten meters high from the ground at this time, but this height fell down, and it still could not survive

The soldiers on the ridges on both sides of the mountain opened fire, but there was no return fire in the cave on the opposite side, because the distance between the two sides was relatively far away at this time, and the bullets could not hit the militants who were hiding at all.

At this time, a puff of white smoke suddenly came out of the top of the mountain, and as soon as the platoon commander saw the smoke rising, he immediately shouted: "Lie down, they have artillery." ”

Is there really a cannon?

An Feng hurriedly lay down with Argyle, and at the same time, there was a roar in the air, and a cannonball landed in the valley and exploded with a bang.

Without the platoon commander to greet him, the two soldiers immediately took off the smoke bombs from their bodies and threw them forward, the red smoke immediately came out, enveloping the entire valley in a moment, at this time a soldier carrying a large bag on his shoulders quickly squatted on the ground and laid a piece of tarpaulin, three or two soldiers unloaded the backpack on them, and began to assemble it in a hurry, and after a while, an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft was assembled, the unmanned reconnaissance fuselage was no more than l meters long and the wingspan was l meters 5, and there was a small bomb with the thickness of a baseball bat and the length of a Coke bottleAfter the assembled drone was placed on the ground, the soldier began to control the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft with a gamepad to take off.

At this time, the soldiers were still throwing smoke grenades in front of them, and thick red smoke filled the entire valley, which was said to be impenetrable even through the laser sights installed on the tanks. A whole squad of soldiers, plus An Feng and Argyle, hid in the red smoke together, and then, An Feng watched the unmanned reconnaissance plane take off

Soldiers operating unmanned reconnaissance aircraft are like playing a flying game, and it is no wonder that the US Department of Defense says that in the next century, people who cannot play video games will not even be qualified to be soldiers.

The screen swayed, and through the high-definition camera lens on the plane, the soldiers searched the mouse holes in the mountain beam inch by inch, and by chance, a soldier found the intersection of light and darkness, and immediately shouted: "Fly back, fly back again, look here." ”

The soldier who controlled the gamepad turned around, and the unmanned reconnaissance plane turned over like a swallow in the sky, and after turning around, he saw the mouth of the cave, and then the mouth of the cave spewed out a puff of white smoke again, and the tail of the white smoke was the high-heat red light of the fire stardust, and in the thermal tracker, the light coming out of the muzzle of the gun was exceptionally bright.

The soldier who controlled the finger moved, the white light had been marked, the unmanned reconnaissance plane spun around again at high altitude, and then flew to a higher place, and after drilling into the clouds, the unmanned reconnaissance plane adjusted its posture at high altitude and began to enter the dive bomb throwing position.

Understood, the bomb is too small, and the plane must fly very high in the air in order for the bomb to gain maximum potential energy.

The unmanned reconnaissance plane roared and began to dive, the unmanned reconnaissance plane powered by batteries could not hear the sound of propellers, the soldiers in control kept zooming in on the image they had just located, and the image search engine was running at high speed, constantly filling in the missing pixels through logical operations on the blurred images.

As the reconnaissance plane transmitted more and more pixels, the scene at the entrance of the cave became clearer and clearer-it was a cave similar to a soup spoon, with the end of the handle being the hole, and the handle of the soup spoon slanted downward, and at the very top of the soup spoon, a raised rock like an eagle's beak blocked the view from above. So, when viewed from below, the high mountains block the entrance to the cave, and when you look down from the sky, you can't see the existence of the entrance unless you have a special angle.

The location near the mouth of the cave was not large, and only three people could be squeezed into it to stand side by side. The three men stood in a crowded position, one of them holding a long sniper rifle and looking at the pass with a telescope, and a man next to him was holding a cannonball in his hand and reloading the muzzle; And there is another person in the tail of the mortar gun, who seems to be holding a ruler in his hand, calculating the trajectory.

Precision-guided bombs, with a camera in front of them, operate to correct the missile at any time based on the images that come back. Judging from the transmitted image, the swooping bomb has been discovered by the personnel at the entrance of the cave, and on the image, the three people at the entrance of the cave are full of terror, and the mortar loader is so frightened that the shell slides into the muzzle; The man with the sniper rifle quickly jumped to the side and leaned down to avoid the gun......

There was only a muffled sound, and the shells fired earlier fell in the valley, and at the same time, as you can see on the screen, another shell was spat out from the muzzle of the mortar......

At this moment, the bomb dropped by the unmanned reconnaissance plane also exploded, and at this time, the unmanned reconnaissance plane pulled up rapidly, and only the blue sky could be seen on the camera, and the gyroscope on the computer showed that the unmanned reconnaissance plane was almost climbing vertically.

An explosion was heard, and the ground shook. This was a bomb dropped by an unmanned reconnaissance plane that exploded, and the bomb carried by the unmanned reconnaissance plane, in addition to the body, was only filled with about 450 grams of gunpowder. However, although the bomb is small, it cannot withstand the new gunpowder type.

One gram of high explosives was used as hundreds of grams of explosives in the past, and when a bomb passed, the whole mountain was shaking, and the rubble crackled and fell, and when An Feng followed the platoon commander to rush out of the red smoke, and looked up, half of the eagle's beak cliff had collapsed, and if the three people at the entrance of the cave had not had time to escape, they had now been turned into a molecular state by high explosives.

Two medical soldiers carried first-aid equipment and ran to the helicopter fall, and the four soldiers responsible for protecting An Feng blocked An Feng's side with their bodies, forming a meat screen to cover An Feng to the helicopter falling to the ground, this helicopter has a device to prevent combustion, after the plane fell, there was only a small fire burning in the fuel tank, and the flame did not spread. An ambulance soldier rushed into the helicopter, first took out the fire extinguisher to extinguish the flames of the fuselage, and after dropping the empty fire extinguisher, he began to rescue the wounded soldiers in the cabin with An Feng and Argyle, while the remaining ambulance soldiers looked for the fallen soldiers near the fall point.

The helicopter carried six people, in addition to the captain and co-pilot, a machine gunner, an ammunition man, and a communications officer - responsible for taking images of the scene and transmitting them to the command post in real time. In the end, there was only one armed soldier left, and it was the machine gunner on the helicopter who was shot in the air, and the ammunition loader next to the machine gunner was also hit by a large-caliber bullet at the same time, and there was no chance of saving these two people.

The co-pilot in the front cabin was wounded by shrapnel, and after emergency hemostasis, An Feng bandaged him. The captain of the helicopter was not seriously injured, he was scratched on the head by broken glass from the fall, and during the battle just now, he bandaged himself briefly and picked up a gun to cover his companion.

The communications soldier on the plane did not scratch his skin at all, but the armed escort broke his foot when he jumped off the plane, and he may even have a broken calf bone. An Feng put a splint on him and injected him with painkillers, and the guard was immediately arranged in a sheltered place and covered with a military blanket to rest.

At this time, the platoon commander had already led people to attack near the eagle's beak cliff, and the soldiers were shooting guns all the way, regardless of whether they could hit the target or not, purely with the sound of guns, and there were crisp gunshots between the valleys and mountain beams. After a while, the gunfire stopped, and An Feng also cleaned up the wounded soldiers here.

After only a moment's pause, the platoon commander shouted: "Prepare ......"

When all of them heard this, they covered their ears together and opened their mouths slightly. After the platoon commander shouted preparations, he immediately gave a decisive order: "Detonate"

How long the cave is, the soldiers are not interested in knowing, how many people are in the cave, the platoon commander is not interested in searching, the tactical norms require that if the cave entrance does not collapse, if the combat team has a robot mouse with it, it can go deep into the cave to investigate, then it will be investigated, if those prerequisites are not met, then Yu Crisp will ask the soldiers to blow up the cave entrance.

No matter how many people are in the cave, as long as all the holes they see are blown up so that the people in the cave can't climb out, then they are not a threat to the soldiers, and as for what they will do in the sealed cave, the soldiers are not interested.

When soldiers go to the battlefield, they don't get paid by beheading, they get paid, they take prisoners or something, killing and wounding or something is meaningless to them, as long as they complete their battlefield actions according to tactical norms, then they can get paid, so they don't pursue killing, only pursue protecting themselves.

Protect yourself, go home from the battlefield intact, even if you don't fire a shot, as long as you go to the battlefield, you can get the Service Medal, if you don't die in battle, you can get the Medal of Bravery, as for the Outstanding Medal, that thing is only a particularly fanatical militant will deliberately pursue.

After the explosion, the battle finally ended, and the remaining soldiers continued to search the nearby cave, and the platoon commander returned with people, and he was busy comforting An Feng's emotions first: "Doctor Condon, you see, I try my best to fight a zero-contact war, but this mountain is full of hiding holes, and if you turn a corner, you can meet a militant hiding in a cave. You're alright, Dr. Condon, don't be intimidated, you're as brave as a soldier as a doctor. ”

Now the platoon commander looks at An Feng more pleasing to the eye, no wonder this playboy wants to come to the battlefield, originally he saw An Feng's careless and lazy attitude towards everything, and he didn't fight in one place, but after this battle, the platoon commander found that even in the most fierce battle, even if the shells were whistling overhead, and the explosion was not far from the doctor, this doctor was still that unhurried and lazy - this is the person who does big things.

After a quick look at the wounded soldiers, they found that they were well bandaged, and the two medical soldiers noticed the platoon commander's looking gaze, and quietly gave a thumbs up to show their attitude--this doctor looked unserious, and he was very professional, very skillful, and very proper.

At this time, Argyle lifted his vest again, and the platoon commander touched his forehead: Here we go again.

Sure enough, Argyle took out the cigar cigarette, and at the same time took out the small wine jug, An Feng lit the cigar cigarette in a hurry, and took a sip from time to time with the small wine jug in one hand, while Argyle took out a small electric fan as usual, blowing the smoke from the cigar.

After the fierce battle, his nose, which was accustomed to smelling the smell of gunpowder smoke and smoke bombs, suddenly smelled the mellow smell of cigar smoke, the platoon commander not only swallowed his saliva, he looked at An Feng, An Feng's eyes showed an inquiring look, and the platoon commander nodded heavily. So An Feng stretched out his hand, and there was immediately an extra cigar on his palm. But An Feng's hand did not retract, he still spread his hand, Argyle had to hesitate to take out another one from the vest, and then another one, and An Feng closed his palm.

Three cigars, one for the platoon leader, one for each of the two ambulances, the ambulance soldiers were not willing to smoke this cigar, cherished the cigar smoke back into the pocket, the platoon commander lit the cigar, and the helicopter pilot sitting there greeted: "Give me a puff." ”

A cigar cigarette passed around, and no one hated the spit on the end of the cigar. After smoking this cigar, the soldiers who had finished the search finally sent a safety signal, and the platoon commander pointed to several wounded soldiers and said: "We have to move on, I will leave a squad to take care of you, and you will stay here and wait for rescue." ”
