Chapter 175: Fighting for Life
The people around Said were also very excited, after all, there were not many opportunities to beat the Yankees. And outside the town, a squad that had been ordered immediately stopped retreating. They had all just exited the tunnel and were trying to make their way back into the town from the northeast side. The man who had been in charge of the command immediately looked at his subordinates: "How many anti-tank missiles do we have?" ”
"Two shots." After a quick count, one person replied.
"Only two shots left?" The man in charge of the command was obviously surprised.
"Maybe there's still in the tunnel. After all, the evacuation was somewhat hasty, some were killed by the bombing, and some may have been discarded. Someone spoke.
"No matter. Go back first. When you get back to the tunnel, you can knock out the two pieces in your hand. If you find anything else, hit them all. Follow me. So saying, he first turned to the way he had come, and ran back again.
While the militants on the eastern flank turned back, the group of Americans in the middle of the road was left uncommanded, but they did not panic and began to return fire on their own western flank. This time, they learned from their previous experience, so they started firing with good accuracy, and several shells landed on the edge of the tunnel, killing and wounding several militants in one fell swoop.
However, this did not frighten Saeed's men, although these people were fighting under Faisal's command at the moment, but Saeed's men were obviously very different from the men led by Haqim and Malle. To put it simply, these people are not only more skilled in tactical skills, but also have a lot more courage and courage, as well as toughness.
Therefore, even after being fired back by tank fire, they did not flinch, and still according to the plan they had made, after dodging the shelling, they used RPG-29 to pull the trigger on the M2 armored vehicles that they had been eyeing for a long time.
Rockets were fired one after another, and although some of them were visibly crooked, one or two of them killed the Americans. One of them hit the tail of an M2 directly, blowing up the butt of the armored car.
This frightened the Americans in the tank, and they only heard someone shouting: "Let those soldiers get out of the car, let them get out of the car." Attack, cover them to attack immediately! ”
"They've gotten out of the car. Calm down, just hit the armored car, our guys are still there, they are still there. Someone responded.
"Then organize them to attack the west. These people are hiding in low places, maybe the trenches they have dug a long time ago, and it will be difficult for us to hit them. Someone said.
"I'll go find them right away. You continue to suppress them. After saying a word, he opened the hatch of the tank, and quickly climbed out, and after a brief exchange of words with the person in charge of the infantry, he looked at the tank carrying Major Connor.
At the moment, the two tanks are firing, which means that the people inside are not dead, they are still fighting, and the form is not as bad as they and others think.
"Major, they should be fine. They're firing. "This man who climbed out of his tank to coordinate the infantry passed through the sermon.
"So what is he doing? We need someone to make a decision. We can't be beaten like fools here! Someone shouted.
"Then do as I said before." Just when everyone didn't know what to do, Connor's voice came again. "Into town, quick. Follow me in a row, C2, C3, are you still there? ”
"Sir!" Someone responded.
"Get people in the car. Keep up with me. Attack the town around the blown up junction ahead. Connor said as he picked up another intercom and said, "Second Lieutenant Terry." Can you hear me? ”
"The Major can be heard." Terry's voice was heard immediately.
"We're in a bit of trouble. But it's coming to you. Ready to pick us up, you know what to do. Connor said.
"Understood, Major. I know what to do. But you have to hurry, we're in a terrible situation here. Terry said.
"Roger. Hold on, second lieutenant. We'll be there right away. Connor" Connor said, and the three tanks immediately started to move, and they continued to fire at the west tunnel as they headed towards the town, followed by two M2 armored vehicles, the machine guns on the armored vehicles and the shooting holes on the body were not idle, they were all firing at full load.
This poses a great threat to these militants on the west side, although they are hiding in the tunnel, but this tunnel is not a fortification at all, the soil on both sides is not even tamped, and there is no other reinforcement or bulletproof thing, so after being violently attacked, it is either penetrated or collapsed, so as time goes by, the casualties are increasing rapidly, especially those who still have to get up and fire rockets in the direction of the road are dying under such an attack, Several times, before he could pull the trigger, he was hit and fell in the tunnel.
"They're going to town! We can't stop them by playing like this. "Someone in the pit shouted.
Although the person in charge of the command was very unwilling, he could only pick up the walkie-talkie and report when he looked at the already messy pit in a blink of an eye.
"The Americans were divided into two teams. Some of them are continuing north along the road and will soon enter the town. We're too badly wounded to stop them. We... Before the man could finish speaking, Said's voice came over the intercom.
"You've done your best and you're doing a good job. No more trying to chase it. Organize the manpower to get out there. Bring some weapons and equipment that still work. See you in our town. Said said.
"Understood!" Of course, the person in charge of the command could hear Said's voice, but after he breathed a sigh of relief, he said to his subordinates: "Pack up your things, take the wounded, and we'll leave here first." Hurry up, hurry up! Get out of here. After everyone took action, he pulled one of the people next to him: "Organize all the good hands for me while retreating, and we will continue to fight with these iron boxes when we return to the town." ”
The retreat of the militants quieted down the west side, much to Connor's relief. And then he felt a pain in his head. He reached out and touched it, but his head was not broken, but he found that his face was broken at some point. The recent hit still had a great impact on his tank, at least after a violent shock, he fainted, but fortunately he woke up not long after, and the tank was fine except for some malfunctions and the sound after driving was a little different from before.
