Chapter 27: Scuffle (7)
The rapidly approaching enemy stirred up the defeated soldiers below, who had just been appeased and respited. After a brief discussion with Kostic, Petkovic and Ivanovich took a dozen or so people around him and a group of defeated soldiers to go up our hill with Kostic, while Ivanovich began to command and arrange the defense.
Kostic and Petkovic came up to us, and Petkovic looked at me and Milk, and said, "You can't stay here for long." From the beginning of our battle, the opposing side has been fighting more and more, and there have been reinforcements. To make matters worse, I got the news that the NATO peacekeeping force was also transferred, and if we were stuck here, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
Hearing this news was a bit of a surprise for both Milk and me. Although such a conflict peacekeeping force should be managed, generally speaking, what the peacekeeping force can do at this moment is to watch a show, just like fighting a fire, as long as the place that is not burned is not burned, and what has been burned is let be burned, waiting to clean up the mess. But the meaning of mobility is targeted action. Are they ready to pull the rack? Among these people, I feel that these peacekeepers are more likely to help the other side attack us.
"Is this news reliable?" Milk asked.
It was not Petkovic who answered the question, but a man next to him, who said, "Reliable." This is what we learned from the mouth of one of the militants of the opposing side that we caught. ”
When Milk heard this, he didn't discuss anything else, and pointed directly to the direction we came, "We're going to withdraw from there, we're coming from there... "Just as Milk was talking to him about the plan we had discussed, there was a lot of movement on the old fellow's side.
The other side suddenly increased the intensity of the attack, there was a series of explosions on the old guy's position, the other side should have carried a lot of mortars, this round of shelling was very intensive, from our point of view, we could not see anything but the dust stirred up by the explosion.
The defeated soldiers who retreated below retreated at an even faster speed, and although I hadn't seen the other side's figures, I could already feel the dense bullets coming from the other side. The last group of defeated soldiers who retreated, after leaving behind a dozen corpses, a few survivors ran to Ivanovich.
Petkovic looked at the situation and said, "I'll go down with someone first." Occupy that meadow directly, Ivanovich will retreat here one after another, and we will pick up Dravich and them in the main meadow. ”
I heard him say this, looked at Milk, and said, "How did you change your plans?" Yugovich wants us to hold the hills on both sides. We're gone now, Yugovich, are they still gone? ”
Milk glanced at me and motioned for me not to get excited, and Petkovic beckoned his men to get ready to move as he spoke, "Neither you nor he knows how many people are coming. Occupy the hills on both sides? The mortars that those people carry will make everyone's life worse than death. We're just going to have to get out of here as fast as we can. He said and looked at Kostic behind him, "You are the leader, what do you think?" ”
Petkovic's attitude towards Kostic is tough, not at all like the attitude of a subordinate to his superior. However, Kostic did not react to any dissatisfaction at the moment, and after a brief consideration, he said: "Follow your plan." ”
"Follow me. I'll take the lead. Petkovic glanced at me and Milk, and led the men toward the one-man tall meadow below us. And Kostic didn't have any more words to say, and followed the young men behind him.
"What should I do? That's not the plan. Who the hell do we listen to? I asked, looking at Milk.
"We're going to stay here and don't move. We negotiated with the old guys, not with these two guys. Milk said as he looked at the others around him, "Cheer me up and get ready to fight." Damn, they've all been beaten up like this and they're still posing in front of them. Milk spat at the ground as he spoke.
At this moment, there was another burst of gunfire from Yugovich, and then from the entrance appeared a group of armed men, and as soon as these men appeared, they opened fire from Ivanovich below us. Milk looked at the bottom of his eyes and snorted coldly: "They are all scared, and they can't wait to shoot all the bullets when they come in." After speaking, he looked at everyone and said, "Give me calm and watch well." The old guy won't all die there, our task now is to pick them up, and let the fat man lead the people to fight each other first. ”
As soon as Milk finished speaking, the old fellows began to counterattack, and from my point of view, they were firing at the enemy, and began to fight and retreat in the direction of Ivanovich.
"It seems that there are really a lot of people on the other side. Old guys, they can't stand it. I whispered.
Milk looked at it and said, "If the old guy is smart enough, he should speed up and retreat, and go around the rear of the Ivanovich line into the hills on our side." ”
"Hey! The thin man went into the grass and laid an ambush. The oil bottle pointed to Petkovic, who was leading the people down, and they said.
Just as I was about to look at Petkovich and them, the enemy shells burst into the air with only a few shots, which fell on both sides of Ivanovich.
"Give me all the secrets. The son-of-bitch's cannonball is going to be extended. Milk lowered himself and looked outside.
I turned to look at Petkovich, who had scattered the men in the direction of the road leading to Ivanovich in the meadow, and Kostic and the young men he had taken as guards were hiding in the back of the road. Look at this posture, I am ready to give the opponent's flank a hard time directly after the opponent attacks.
"I remembered. And what about the two mortars that support the white-eyed wolf? I looked at Milk and asked, "It's a bit old, but it's the right place to use it." ”
Milk listened to me and looked at the oil bottle, "Where's the cannon?" ”
The oil bottle looked at him innocently, and then at me, "What cannon?" ”
"You useless thing." Milk said and patted the head of the oil bottle, then looked down, "It must have been used by the fat man." Let's hope they don't waste their resources. ”
As he spoke, the shells struck again, this time directly on the position built by the fat man at zero hour, and then there was no movement. But I knew the onslaught was about to begin.
"The other party has attacked the hill on the old guy's side." Milk said, pointing over there.
I looked there, and there were already people shooting on the hills over there, and the attackers were moving very quickly, and soon occupied an area, and the people behind were also coming up quickly, and soon many figures were shaking.
"The other side occupies the hill, and then Petkovic and they are miserable. Unless those people are blind. "As soon as I finished speaking, there was the whistling of cannonballs in the air, and then they exploded at the fat man below us.
This time it was a real shelling, and the shells were both accurate and dense. Directly like a plough blossomed everywhere in Ivanovich. And just when the fat man was blown up and couldn't lift his head at all, from the passage in the hill, a large number of enemies poured in. Together with their companions who had already stormed the hill, they quickly advanced in the direction of Ivanovich, and soon approached the meadow where Petkovich and his ambush were.
"When are we going to do it?" The oil bottle asked in a low voice.
Milk didn't answer immediately, but looked at Petkovic and said, "It seems that they still have a chance to kill a few Albanians." Let's do it! The meaning couldn't be more obvious, and that is to keep waiting.
I looked at Petkovich, and their men in ambush in the grass began to open fire on the enemy who were passing through the meadow, knocking out several people at once with a single blow. However, they only attacked the opposing team, and a large number of people were still behind, and those people immediately reacted and opened fire into the grass, and the two sides shot at each other without seeing each other clearly. At this time, the fat man and the thin man showed a tacit understanding, and I only heard the shouts of "open fire" from there, and the fat man stared at the shelling and began to counterattack.
Ivanovich's men showed a level of artillery bombardment, first two shells fell directly on the enemy's ranks at the bottom of the hill, lifting several people into the air, and then two more shells extended towards the rear of the opposing team, causing effective casualties to the opponent almost without missing a shot.
"Well played. Grande may not be so accurate. But before Milk's slightly excited applause fell, Petkovic below was violently attacked.
Because the people on the hill began to fire at them. The people on the hill had the advantage of the location, they could faintly see the people in the grass, and Petkovic's people were quickly beaten and could not lift their heads. As soon as their fire weakened, the men below the hill divided into a part and approached the meadow, and when they approached, they did not rush into the meadow, but threw grenades into the meadow. Under the double blow of the explosions and the hills on the hills, the thin men suffered heavy losses in an instant, and the surviving ones quickly retreated in the direction of Kostic, the passage close to which we were to retreat.
"Shit, you idiots. If you want to die, you will die there, and you will lead people there. Milk said and looked at everyone, "We're going to do it, we can't let the other party go into the grass and chase after us." After saying that, he looked at the hill opposite, "Why haven't they come here yet, old guy?" We don't have much time to wait for him. ”
