The situation on the docks is indeed critical.

But relying on the firepower and protection of the two trucks, the team members even formed a stalemate with each other for a while. It's just that if you continue to fight, the outcome can be imagined.

If it weren't for the fact that they were here to meet their teammates, they would have had every chance to break through at the beginning of the firefight.

Now the two trucks, one south and one north, are across the road, covering each other's rear wings. On the flaps on both sides of each truck, a total of four light machine guns were completely suppressed.

Even because of Ivan's heavy machine gun, for a long time, the squad had a suppressive advantage in firepower. suppressed the main force of the International Merchants and launched a frontal attack from the north.

It's a real battle, not some sporadic gunfight. Therefore, all major newspapers and periodicals in Shanghai reported on it one after another.

……

It can be said that the siege of the wharf by the international business group tonight is inevitable.

A few days ago, the guard who died at his own station and lost his car, such an incredible thing can happen in the building of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau, which is a great shame for the public concession that has not been encountered in a century.

Because the nature of the matter was too humiliating, the Ministry of Industry Bureau did not make a big fuss about the city's arrest, let alone issue a notice of assistance in the investigation as Pu Su expected. On the surface, there was no movement from the Ministry of Industry Bureau, but in fact all the police forces were dispatched, scattering plainclothes and patrolling police in all corners of the city day and night.

As soon as the two trucks that entered the wharf drove to the public concession, they were spotted by plainclothes patrols of the Ministry of Industry Bureau who were investigating on the side of the street on Fuxi Road, and the latter immediately reported to the Ministry of Industry Bureau, and then the International Business Group quickly dispatched a team.

The car thief dared to kill the guards, and was undoubtedly not an ordinary thief. Therefore, the Ministry of Industry Bureau did not plan to send the police in the public patrol room at all, but directly sent a military force over.

It can be said that the head of the Ministry of Industry attaches great importance to this kind of handling and is also relatively forward-looking. The army was actually sent to deal with a few car thieves, which was unprecedented.

After all, the team members who were carrying at that time were all in the back compartment, covered with canvas outside, and the patrol officers who found the trucks couldn't figure out how many people were on the two trucks.

It takes time to mobilize the wing to assemble urgently, and the wing on combat readiness tonight is the American Lancers.

By the time the team reached the Bund, Alyosha had already boarded the boat with a group of team members. So what the wing saw was the group of players who stayed on the dock, and the captured green gang was also included.

The commander of the wing observed the scene from a distance with a telescope for a while, and found that the other side was quite numerous, and it was difficult to deal with it, and the distance between the two trucks on the north and south sides was very wide.

Therefore, he quickly made arrangements for this situation in accordance with the deployment of the military academy in the drill code, and decisively arranged the formation of the following three detachments.

All the way was the frontal team led by him, sneaking from north to south, and taking the lead in the charge. The other way went around to the five-horse road and stood by, cooperating with his charge here, attacking from the flank. The last way is to go around to the back of Lao Taiping Lane and outflank the back road from south to north.

As for the east, there is no need to think about it at all, unless the other party jumps over the wall and intends to jump into the river.

The purpose of this programme is clear – to make sure that no one is left behind. To this end, the commander also ordered the herald to run back to the Ministry of Works as soon as possible, so that the other side could cooperate with him to pull down the lighting switch.

It's just that just when the three of them were about to form an outflanking, they were discovered by the other party. In fact, it was only less than a minute away, but it made the difference between tonight's battle and life and death.

If their side is the first to attack, the team on the dock will be caught off guard, and it will be a completely different result, and there will be no suspense.

After the heavy machine gun fired, the commander knew that the planned assault was already unlikely. He could only be decisive and command the squad to open fire and attack.

With the opponent's rapid firepower reaction, he helplessly found that his team's firepower was far from being able to compete with the opponent.

Most of his team members are equipped with M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles. Although this rifle was indeed a reliable, durable and effective rifle, under the fire of the opponent's light and heavy machine guns, his team was suppressed and could not show its head at all.

Soon the second squad sent someone to report that the team had suffered heavy casualties before it could meet the enemy.

The truck that had escaped the encirclement earlier was armed with light machine guns, and a single round of fire as it passed by them killed and wounded a dozen or so team members.

This squad was unlucky. Wuma Road is a road running east-west, and at the end of the road is the Bund in the east. The Commander's original intent was that when his squad launched a frontal attack, the team would attack from the target's flank.

The original plan was a raid, and the idea would definitely work. It's just that after getting the warning from his teammates, the truck from the north quickly moved south, and by chance in the process, he happened to find the team that had just moved to the designated position.

The rate of fire of Czech light machine guns reached 500 rounds per minute. The two machine guns simply walked and fired, raining countless bullets on the head of the completely exposed, unprotected squad in a matter of seconds.

If it weren't for the fact that the driver couldn't figure out the situation and was a little panicked, when he stepped on the brakes, as long as the machine gunner in the car fought for a few more seconds, the end of this team would have been even more miserable.

The unbridled strafing of two machine guns on a truck with steel plate protection was an absolute disaster for them and completely unbearable.

As the truck approached its teammates through the Five Horse Road, it spotted the third squad attempting to attack from the rear wing. So he knocked the car sideways on the Bund road, and the driver got out of the car and let the two light machine gun firing positions on the south side of the car block the enemy.

Four light machine gun firing emplacements were reserved in the bed of each truck, two on each side. After the car was sideways, the remaining team members jumped up two more and took over the firing position from the north to suppress the frontal attack.

At first, the wing commander felt that this team was amateur, and he was quite happy. After they returned fire, they found that a lot of people around the truck had scattered and ran out, apparently panicking when they heard the gunshots.

This discovery made the commander contempt for the target of the attack, feeling that even if the other party was equipped with heavy weapons, it was a rabble after all. Before it could be done, the infighting had already begun to show signs of escape.

Those figures who fled in three directions were knocked down by the fire fired by both sides without any suspense, and even in the eyes of the commander, the other party accidentally injured many of his own people in a panic. The lighting was cut off, and it seemed that the other side was not suitable for night fighting. It is said that East Asians have poor nutrition and a lot of night blindness, which seems to be really not nonsense, otherwise how could they even fight their own people.

Thinking of this, the commander's courage increased a lot. With a wave of his hand, he took the lead in leading the team to charge. From where they had been found, he could be sure that he would keep all of these guys here if he had advanced fifty yards further and had reached the grenade throwing distance.

Westerners have always taken the lead in warfare, especially the commanders who have come out of the military academy, and have a tradition of defending the honor of officers and their families.

The commander led the charge of the team, and the team members behind could only grit their teeth and follow. Everyone knew that the terrain was very unfavorable to them, and they all rushed out.

It's past four o'clock in the morning, and there is no obstacle to hide from the empty and unobstructed streets. At this time, they can only hope for the cover of the night, and the luck of God's blessing!
