Chapter 140: Thirty Days of Hell (47)
After Sabah had discussed it with his men and Qasim, Sabah looked at me and said something. Ahmed immediately said: "He asked you if you had any suggestions for the way to attack. ”
I glanced at the three TLBs and said, "You should either be ready to annihilate them all, or drive them away." Before you speak, let me give you my advice, and I suggest that we just get rid of them and achieve our ends. ”
The one of Sabah's men spoke as soon as he heard Ahmed's translation, and Ahmet looked at me and said, "He said it would be better to kill all the bastards." ”
Before I could speak, Qasim looked at Sabah and his men and said a few words. Ahmed whispered, "Qasim agrees with you. He said that as long as the other party is driven away, it will save time and reduce losses. ”
Sabah looked at Qasim, and his men didn't seem happy with the way we were fighting, this guy looked like a fanatic, feeling like the kind of idiot who didn't know who he was when he had the so-called advantage that didn't know if it really existed. He opened his mouth and said a few words to Qasim in a less friendly tone.
Qasim looked at the guy, as if he didn't take the guy very seriously, but continued to talk to Sabah.
Ahmet whispered beside me, "That subordinate of Sabah said that you and Qasim were deliberately sparing the enemy, a sign of compromise and cowardice. He felt that he should take the village and behead all of them. Ahmed sighed greedily and continued, "Qasim said that there is no need to consume too much here. This is not a decisive battle, he said that according to Sabah's plan, they are preparing to enter the border mountains to fight guerrillas, and if they lose too many men, it will be a defeat for the future. He said that since it is a guerrilla war, it is necessary to save oneself first, and only in this way can the fighting continue. “
Sabah seemed to think for a moment after listening to Qasim's words, and it was clear that this fanatical old fellow had thought the same as his men, which was to storm the village with all his strength and kill all the enemies inside. Otherwise, at this moment, he would not have listened to the advice of his comrade-in-arms and not spoke, but fell into thought.
Qasim looked at me, and after a moment of waiting, he spoke again to Sabah. "He said that the situation outside is not good, maybe more and more people will go into the mountains, there will be more fighting, and now it's just a matter of establishing a foothold," Ahmed said. “
Qasim's words moved Sabah, and he looked at Qasim and asked. Ahmed glanced at Qasim before he said to me, "He asked Qasim if he said that because he wanted to leave. ”
Qasim smiled a little unexpectedly, and then opened his mouth to say a few words. After saying these few words, Sabah also laughed and nodded as if accepting Qasim's opinion and statement.
Ahmed said: "He said that there is no need for Sabah to worry about this. He would have joined the others after the attack began. And he asked Sabah to think about it himself, to see if what he said made sense. “
After Sabah accepted the advice, he and his men said a few words as if to reassure them. After he finished speaking, he looked at us, thought for a moment, and then spoke a little.
Ahmed translated beside me: "He said that since he only needs to take it, let it go and let them run." His plan was ... The plan was to wait for the mortars to arrive and then use the mortars to shell the areas where the enemy was concentrated, especially where the Europeans were staying. And then.. ”
Sabah looked at his men and said something as if he were assigning him a task. And this guy listened very carefully.
He said, "Let his men, with me, say that this man's name is Kadibi." He told Kadibi to lead the men down from the front, from here on the hillside, through the woods on that side of the hillside, and then stormed the village. The men would attack the village under the cover of mortars. He asked Kadibi to be resolute in his attacks, not to hesitate to keep attacking no matter what the cost. Ahmed said.
I glanced at this guy named Kadibi, and it looked like this guy was going to have a grudge as a punching bag for feints. It's not a good job. However, Sabah arranged well, and he chose to attack from the side of the woods, which provided good cover compared to other places, and largely allowed the men to get as close to the village as possible before they were discovered.
Sabah said and looked at Qasim, who shook his head, looked at me, and said a few words at me. Ahmad immediately said: "Sabah asked where the real attack was?" East and west? Qasim said, ask you first. ”
I looked at Sabah and said, "You can't do it from the east and west, it's too far away, we can't handle it, and we don't have enough people to have a lot of people as reserves, right?" ”
After Ahmed had finished translating and Sabah had admitted that there weren't many men, I continued: "Then we'll have to choose to be close to each other. And you said before that we were going to go south, to the mountains in the southeast. If so, then we'd better not force the people of the village to retreat south. to avoid some unnecessary contact afterwards. After all, no one wants their opponents to know everyone's whereabouts. So instead of attacking from the east and west, we should attack from the west and south, letting go of the west and letting them run. ”
After Ahmed finished translating, Sabah nodded and opened his mouth to say a few words. Ahmed spoke: "He asked the southeast side, where do you choose?" “
I shook my head and said, "There can only be one real point of attack. It's hard to break through from multiple points at the same time, it's not very realistic, and we can't think about it that way. It's better to set a point as the main direction of attack. The other was the same as the gentleman named Kadibi, who was trying to do, a feint to attract attention. ”
After Sabah listened to Ahmed's translation, he consulted with Qasim. After Qasim nodded, Sabah looked at me and said something. Ahmed immediately said: "He said that the total attack was done by him. His suggestion, he said, was that the east side was as much a feint as the north, that he launch a general attack on the south flank, that you and Qasim be on the east side, and that after the heavy attack on Kadibi, the same attack would be launched after the mortars had done a second blow to the opponent's exposed fire points. ”
After Ahmad had finished speaking, Sabah spoke again. Ahmet nodded and continued, "He said that after a fierce exchange of fire with each other on both sides, he led his men to attack from the south quickly and quietly, and tried to take the village in one fell swoop. ”
The second watch... Everyone, vote... I've rolled to Kashmir!!
