Chapter 113: The Edge of the Forest

The men of the 74th Airborne Division led by Chemov failed to cause much trouble for Pete and them, but quickly fell into passivity after the opponent began to counterattack. Even if he had an absolute advantage in numbers, it was still useless, and he could only continue to follow after the other party continued to retreat towards the woods.

The unfavorable situation of the battle situation annoyed Chemov very much, especially when he was so powerful, and he always felt that he was even more irritable when he was passively beaten. He looked at the person next to him and said loudly, "Where are the others?!" We've been fighting them here for so long. What exactly are they doing? Contact the guy named Sitkov. Ask them where they are. ”

In fact, at this moment, Sitkov and his men had already arrived in the east of the city under the leadership of Achraf, and along the way they first replenished some weapons from the Abkhazians, mainly two RPG-7s and some ammunition, as well as two 82mm mortars. In fact, Achraf did not expect anything from the Abkhazians led by Semolov, and in his opinion, only by relying on the special forces around him, also from the GRU, and Chemov and him could achieve what they wanted to achieve tonight. So when Chemov contacted Sitkov, Ashraf directly took the radio and contacted Chemov.

"Captain Chemov, I'm Achraf. Please speak. ”

Chemov didn't hesitate when he heard that it was Ashraf and said, "Where are you now?" If they don't do it, they're going to go into the woods. Once we're in the woods, it's even harder for us to keep up with them! ”

What Chemov said was expected by Ashraf. So he didn't rush but said calmly: "Captain Chemov, please try your best to bite them." We have reached the east of the city and are rushing to you. ”

"How much longer?" Chemov asked anxiously: "These Americans are moving very quickly, and it is difficult for us to give them an effective blow at night, and even more difficult to hold them back." ”

"Five minutes! We'll be there in just five minutes! Be sure to bite them and don't let them into the woods easily! Ashraf said.

When Chemov heard five minutes, Ashraf's answer was much less than he expected, and he immediately agreed: "Good! Five minutes! ”

After the end of the communication, Chemov immediately looked at his subordinates: "Transfer all the people to the south side of the road, let a platoon arrange people to enter the woods, prepare flares, and shoot me over the woods, and light up the area at the edge of the woods." Everyone keeps their eyes on the target, and shoots anyone who sees something moving or moving. ”

The airborne troops who received the instructions immediately went into action, only to see that after a burst of cover fire, the Russians who were still on the north side of the road moved to the other side of the road, and some of the Russians went directly south into the woods. Moments later, two flares hit the sky, and soon they saw the Americans they had been fighting again. By then, most of them had reached the edge of the woods, with only a few people still in the rear, shooting at themselves who had just crossed the road. And just as they were about to shoot at these Yankees, a few more people on the other side took the lead and started to shoot fiercely.

It's just that this time the Yankees' shot was not as powerful as before, but after hitting the area where Chemov was located, two people who had just started shooting while they were seeing the target clearly hit each other and fell.

But this time, Chemov was not only not frightened when he saw his people falling, but was aroused by blood. He could see that the firepower of the other party was weakening compared to before, and he concluded that these people must be thinking about entering the woods as soon as possible, so that it would be more difficult for his people to catch up with them.

So Chemov made up his mind in an instant, and at the sound of "Fire, shoot with all your might!" At the shouting, he was the first to get up and shoot at the Yankees. Under his leadership, more Russians stopped dodging and began to shoot fiercely, and those who had just entered the woods did not go too deep, and when they saw that the Yankees had also entered the woods, they immediately plunged straight into the other side, and pulled the trigger as they went.

This round of attacks caught Hermet's mercenaries a little off guard, after all, the Russians were outnumbered, and even if their marksmanship was poor, as long as they were dense enough to hit the same area at the same time, it was enough to cause a lot of damage.

And at this moment, Pete and the others led by John are fighting too smoothly tonight, especially when they are about to enter the woods to get rid of contact with each other, everyone is more focused on the direction of the woods. Therefore, after the flare was on the sky, she did her best to continue to suppress the other party before she saw her clearly. So at this moment, the balance of power between the two sides is truly reflected.

The first was that there were successive shots among those who were preparing to retreat into the woods, and when they tried to stop and fight back again, it was too late, and after the continuous flares were over, more bullets flew over. This caused several Helmet mercenaries to be hit before they could pull the trigger, and some even fell to the edge of the woods after being hit in succession.

And in the woods the situation is not good. Although there are trees that block the view and bullets of the other party, the light from the flares is also blocked by the branches and leaves of the trees, so many places are still covered in darkness. But someone was still hit and fell.

And the most passive are these people who have just crossed the road. While these people were also attacked, not only could they not quickly retreat into the woods to hide, but they also did not have effective cover from their companions for a while. The only thing that can be done is to fight back at the Russians. Although such a counterattack did cause problems for the men led by Chemov, the casualties on his own side were greater.

"Steady!" John, who had already run to the edge of the woods when he saw this, had to stop, shouting and starting to fight back.

"Kane!" John shouted to the side after two shots, "Stop everyone and shoot back!" After speaking, he looked at Pete and said, "Pete! You and Colin, you two go to the woods and block the Russians coming from the woods. ”

Pete immediately answered the order, and he quickly looked over to the Russians who were shooting in the woods. I saw four or five more figures moving in the woods, firing guns.

These people are not moving fast, after all, it is night, these people have no night vision equipment, they can only use the light of the flares to move forward, and use the constant gunshots and flashes of fire to determine where they are at the moment and the area where the other party is. They had to dive one foot deeper, and they had to see if there was an obstacle in front of them, such as a large tree branch, which made them move at a very slow pace, and because of this, they were forced to stop more and raise their guns to shoot.
