Chapter 126: Crossing the River
Semolov couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard Chemov say this. It is impossible for the gang to be unaware of the movement coming from the river that there are patrol boats on the river, which they must have thought of before they started this mission, otherwise they would not have reserved manpower on the other side of the bank to make arrangements. Then they will inevitably choose a place where they can effectively avoid the sight of the pursuers coming from the river when retreating. At least if you do it yourself, you will. Well, this time they may be playing for real, they are going to really cross the river. However, everything should be cautious. Even if the other party wants to cross the river, it is impossible to swim directly into the water so simply, they will definitely make some preparations, such as the people on the other side to respond, the people on this side to expand the warning range, and so on. As long as you know what they did, you can determine whether they are really going to cross the river.
Thinking of this, Semolov opened his mouth and contacted Chemov: "Follow slowly." Be careful, if they really want to do something then they will probably go after you before you leak what you see. ”
Hearing Semolov's words, Chemov couldn't help but look around. It dawned on him that maybe it was this that was the reason he had been feeling bad. However, after looking around and not seeing any danger, he said, "I understand. But what if they find signs of crossing the river? What should I do? ”
"Just like last time, show the way for our people. I will shell them again. And at the same time, someone will enter the woods and quickly make their way to you. As soon as our people reach you, then all this should be over, and your mission has been successfully completed. Semolov said.
Chemov didn't say anything more, he didn't want to stay here any longer, and it was better than anything else to end this mission as soon as possible. So he immediately led the people and continued to follow carefully in the direction where the Yankees disappeared.
While Chemov continued to move, Colin controlled the drone and slowly flew north along the road. After flying about three hundred meters, a convoy parked in the dark appeared on the screen.
Colin carefully controlled the drone and looked back and forth, and the vehicles were neatly parked on the road, all in a state of flame-off. On both sides of the convoy, especially near the woods, there was a line of guards walking back and forth. Judging by the carrying capacity of these vehicles, there are definitely more than a hundred people here, no, it should be said that there are at least a hundred people, and it is not surprising that there are two hundred. In addition, the two BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicles are particularly conspicuous. This couldn't help but make Colin gasp. This was much more than Colin's previous estimate, and he didn't expect that so many people on the other side would quietly come to the flank not far from him. If it weren't for this forest and it was at night, then the fate of my team could be imagined.
After making sure that he had not missed anything, Colin immediately contacted John and gave him as complete and detailed information as he could about what he had seen here.
John was also slightly surprised when he learned that there were so many people on the road. More than a hundred and nearly two hundred people came out of such a small city? According to his previous reconnaissance, is this a nest of outfits? If you really start fighting at this moment, will you be able to develop as you envisioned? After all, when the number of people is too different, it is difficult for some pre-developed methods to be effective. John thought as he looked at the others who were on standby, he couldn't wait, he couldn't hesitate. Judging from Colin's report, the other party is obviously ready to attack, and there is no point in delaying it like this, does it really mean to take action at the real crossing point? That's definitely not going to work.
Thinking of this, John did not hesitate any longer. He looked at Kane and said, "Have you chosen someone?" ”
"Picked." Kane said yes and beckoned behind him, and soon the four of them ran over. Kane glanced at the men and said, "And myself. Five people in total. ”
John nodded and looked at the people he had rescued, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Take them with you." ”
"Who?" Kane followed John's gaze, and after seeing that it was the rescued people, he said, "Take them with you?" What if they get killed? And there are also wounded, also with him? ”
"Don't worry." John waved his finger to the north and said, "This is for those in the back." It's not really about crossing the river. In fact, it is not necessarily safe to be on shore. Compared to the surface of the river, it seems that these talents on the shore are a big problem now. John said and looked at the west side and said, "You also heard Colin's report just now, there is already a large group of people gathered there, if they are desperate to rely on the advantage of more people and more guns, we may also be difficult to parry." So take them with you, and get a little bit more serious. Of course, you don't need to bring the wounded, just a few of you and a few of them cross the river first. Remember, don't go too fast, slow down for a while, just like going for a swim in a lake not far from your home. ”
Kane immediately nodded and said, "This is to give them time and a chance to take a closer look?" ”
"What else could it be? Go ahead and prepare. Give you five minutes. After John finished speaking, Kane answered, then looked at the other side and took out the radio specially used to communicate with Thun on the other side, and said, "Thun, can you hear me?" ”
"It can be heard, and it's very clear. Also, I'm looking at you with a telescope right now. Thun replied.
"Good." After affirming it, John added, "Where is the patrol boat on the river now?" ”
"It's still three or four hundred meters away from the bend, and they stopped after you stopped again." Thun replied.
"Good. Listen to Thun, we're going to fight them here. After that, continue south to the river crossing site. John said.
Thun didn't seem to react too much to John's decision, but said, "Need me do something?" ”
"Nope. Nothing has changed in what you have to do. The only difference is the mortar you have there. By the way, are your mortars there on the opposite side of me? John said.
"In. Absolutely. According to the previous plan, the two guns and some ammunition were placed in the second blocking point. Thun replied.
John looked back at the west side and said, "Very well, Colin will be in direct contact with your men who control the mortars and follow his instructions to open fire." Everything else doesn't make a difference, and once the firefight begins, you'll have to control the bends in the river to make sure their boats can't get over. You have to be careful, this time the other party should not be so easy to deal with. They're not stupid, and their attention will definitely be on that side this time. So don't be careless. ”
