Chapter 82: The Battle of the Town 2

"We are now on the southeast side of the town. The back of the town is a hill that is not easy to attack. The only ones that can be attacked are here and due east. But the guerrillas on both sides were defended, and I chose to the southeast, because the distance in a straight line to attack the town was shorter than that on the east, and the terrain was more suitable for spreading the troops. Joao said and glanced at the town, "But the other party's defense is very tight, and it has not been able to succeed." ”

Karl nodded, looked at the town with a telescope and said, "After nightfall, you will attack from the east with men. The momentum should be loud. Mortar bazooka can be used. He looked at me and Walker and said, "You guys touch it from here." Is there a problem? ”

I didn't speak, but Walker said, "It's pretty much the same from anywhere." Just tell us what you're going to do. ”

Karl didn't speak immediately, but looked at the town again and said, "You squad took advantage of the night after Joao's onslaught. After taking out the guards in that house, I want you to defend it first, and don't rush in. We don't know what's inside, and it's not necessarily in our favor to just rush in. As long as you hold on, the people behind will immediately follow, is fifty enough? ”

"What about the other fifty? Bring a hundred people, and fifty people, what are you going to do? Walker asked.

Karl shook his head and said, "I'm going to leave the reserves." Judging from Joao's description, it is clear that the other party is well-planned and well-trained. These houses on the periphery are under siege, and who knows how the other side will react? Shrink defenses and send more people to intercept? Or put it in and wait until we get to a position that is not in our favor and then have a counter-offensive? I can't say for sure. Once you're inside, see each other's reactions. See what they're going to do. If they think you're here is the real attack. Then there will definitely be a lot of people to go over. Then I asked Joao to launch a general attack, and if necessary, to throw in the fifty men. Break into the town. ”

"What if the other party sees through it? Or what if they are blocked by Joao? Walker asked.

Karl immediately said: "Then you will go to the east, and you should completely open the east to me." Carl sighed and said, "I know you might think I'm a bit rigid and imaginative. But now that we have the advantage and the other side is the disadvantage, we don't need too risky solutions, but the other side needs them. We just need the surest way to achieve the goal. ”

Walker and I looked at each other and accepted Carl's approach. After all, no one wants to do something risky. So Karl went on to set it up, "If you can't take it." Then Joao tried to storm it. Although we still have time, we are not allowed to waste it. Organize your RPG shooters and assign them to cover them with dedicated people, so that they can point out the opponent's fire point or strong defense point when needed. The artillery was prepared before the attack, and this time I brought a lot of shells, and I didn't want to bring them back. Boom. After the artillery preparation was completed, people were sent to test the attack. Let's see what other firing points the other side still has, and when it is almost discovered, shell again. Then the large force began to attack, and after the attack officially began, the mortars extended into the town, but watch out for friendly forces to the southeast. In the middle of the attack, if you encounter a fire point or something, let the RPG shooter go up and solve it. In short, it is necessary to take the town as soon as possible, even if it cannot be taken once, it will cause great damage to the other party. ”

Joao nodded and said, "Understood." ”

I glanced at the town and said, "We're ramping up our attacks." Will the other side mobilize manpower to support? ”

Karl nodded, "If we fight hard enough, the other party will definitely have such an arrangement." But as long as we make rapid progress during the night, it doesn't matter if the other side comes with reinforcements. After all, they are also under a lot of pressure in other areas, and there will not be many people who come to support them. Besides, Pablo still has people, and this is a very important thing, even if I ask him to give me his own guards at that time, he will not hesitate. ”

I nodded my head in acceptance. Carl looked at us and said, "Any more questions?" If there is no problem." As he spoke, he glanced at his watch, "We don't have to do the trick of sneak attack in the middle of the night." Let's start at eight o'clock in the evening, and you guys will organize your manpower and weapons. Joao, wait until it gets dark before you move your team to the east. ”

After dark, Joao led the men to the east of the town. We were left with only a hundred men left with Carl. At eight o'clock in the evening, mortars from the east opened fire. First there were two test launches, followed by a long period of intensive bombing. From time to time, there was a fire in the town, and the originally quiet town began to stir, but there was no gunfire.

After about ten minutes, the shelling stopped, and Joao began a tentative attack. The gunfire was not intense, just some scattered gunfire. This attack lasted fifteen minutes, after which the sound of explosions was recalled, and the shelling was equally fierce but short-lived. Joao then contacted Karl and the real attack began.

The sound of machine guns came and went, and it seemed that they were advancing under the cover of fire. There was no major movement in the town at first, but it suddenly became violently. The gunfire was very dense, and the flash of the explosion lit up the sky from time to time, as if there was lightning in the sky from time to time. This shows that the resistance in the town is very strong.

The heavy attack lasted about half an hour, and the mortar shells extended all the way to the town from the east, hitting the bell tower of the church with one shot. From time to time, flares flew in the town, and at the same time there seemed to be mortars firing shells at the attacking SDF.

"Check the equipment. Prepare for action. Karl said to us after observing for a moment.

Those of us were ready, and even our faces were painted with camouflage this time. We had already divided into two teams and squatted on the ground waiting for Karl's order to go.

After about five minutes, Karl made contact with Joao and gave us instructions to take action after asking them to intensify their attacks.

Walker and I quickly rushed out of the shelter with two teams of men, all the way to the row of houses. The room was still silent, and it was pitch black and nothing to be seen.

We stopped about fifty meters away from the row of houses, and the quieter the place, the more dangerous it might be. I didn't want the whole team to touch it, and then I realized that it was wrong, and there was no other way than to shoot each other in close hand-to-hand combat. That would be a big loss. I don't want that, it's not the time to fight hard.

I looked back at my team and gestured to the oil bottle and Paro for the two of them to follow me. Then I motioned for Walker to stand still and wait for cover.

I took the two of us cautiously to the house in front of us, and it was fine at first, but when we were about ten meters away from the house, we heard a shout from behind the house, followed by two "bang, bang", and two flares rose into the air.

The light of the flares not only quickly illuminated the area we passed, but also the practice house. At that moment, I saw two faces in the house, and they spotted us, and with a look of surprise on their faces, they were about to shoot.

"Hurry up!" I didn't retreat, I didn't hide. It's not good to be found in this place at the moment. There's nowhere to hide here, and the only thing we can do is to take them out before they kill us.

Walker's guns had gone off, and the other side was trying to shoot at us. The three of us quickly rounded to the right, and as I ran, I pulled out my grenade, and then the glow of the flare, which was getting weaker and weaker, was thrown towards the house.

"Lie down!" I screamed.

An explosion rang out, and I immediately got up from the ground. Drag the oil bottle and Paro followed closely behind me. The people in the house started shooting outwards shortly after the explosion, and someone threw grenades outward. However, they attacked from the same location where we had just been seen, so they did not kill us. However, Walker was more uncomfortable, they could not attack with all their strength, after all, the three of us were almost face to face with each other.

The three of us touched the wall of the house, and there was movement inside the room indicating that there were about five or six people inside. At the moment, they seemed a little flustered, their footsteps were secret, and their tone of voice was anxious.

I looked back at the oil bottle and motioned for him to give me the bomb we had prepared. After we set it up at the base of the wall, we quickly retreated. The oil bottle pulled out the detonator controller, looked at me, and after I signaled yes, pressed the button.

The explosion was not very violent, and it was arranged in advance to prevent an explosion that was too large from reaching us when it sent the other side into the sky. After all, we are fighting at close range. But even a very strong explosion, a corner of the house has disappeared. The gunfire inside also stopped.

I immediately got up and ran with the three of them towards the gap in the house that had been blown open, and asked Walker to follow with someone through the communicator. As soon as I entered the house, I pulled the trigger because I saw a man trying to get up from the ground. Immediately afterward, both the oil bottle and Paro fired two shots.

We took the house. I turned on the flashlight to take pictures on the floor, and there were five people lying in the room, and there was a body that was supposed to be close to the point of the explosion, and the body was already somewhat fragmented.

"There's movement outside!" As soon as the words of the oil bottle fell, bullets from the town had already penetrated the house.

I quickly came to the door of the hut and looked at it, and outside the house was a clearing, and on the opposite side of the clearing, about thirty meters apart, was a row of buildings, and someone was shooting at it. And someone has already attacked here.

"Don't let them come close, we have to stand firm!" I said as I shot at the moving figure.

As soon as this shot was fired, I saw a lot of muzzle flashes in the building opposite, and for a while, the gunfire was intensive, and the bullets flew like raindrops. Soon, though, Walker followed with the others.

"Send someone to hit the opposite house with an RPG! Let Karl send those fifty men! I looked at Walker Road.

Walker immediately turned around and called for a man, who quickly loaded a rocket and slung it to his shoulder. Walker probably looked at the opposite side where the fire was being fired, and after a brief explanation, he shouted, "Cover fire!" ”
