0801 Double Blade Fall (2)
0801
At the time of the attack, the helicopter team did not immediately go into assisting in the operation, they first raised the flight altitude again, and after observing the battle situation for a while, only then did the two helicopters leave the highway and fly towards the location where the attackers appeared, they would destroy the heavy machine gun positions deployed by the attackers on a small dirt slope in the distance, and then lay down the two squads of infantry carried by the planes, and engage in a two-sided flanking attack with the infantry on the plain.

At the same time, Major Barney also sent six armored vehicles to the location of the soldiers who had fallen from the previous guns, providing fire support and rescuing those who had been shot, although these armored vehicles were not equipped with heavy firepower, only some 20mm cannons, but they were enough to suppress the fire of the attackers.
For Major Barney, things happened somewhat unexpectedly, but they were quickly brought under control, and nothing was too bad.
This idea was strengthened by Barney's sight of two helicopters firing and blasting several heavy machine-gun positions of attackers in the distance into balls of fire.
In the process of the operation of the two helicopters, the attackers did not think of the idea of knocking them down, but the equipment of these attackers was not very good, they launched at the two helicopters, only some RPG-7 rocket launchers, which could not hit the high-speed helicopters at all, not to mention, the rocket launcher tail flame also burned several of their own people.
Subsequently, these people who revealed their positions were directly killed by the infantry and armored vehicles of the defense regiment.
If there were no surprises, this seemingly sudden ambush battle would have ended in half an hour - if there were no surprises.
Just when the two helicopters destroyed the heavy machine gun positions deployed by the attackers and released the infantry squad carried in the cabin, suddenly a helicopter pulled up desperately despite the fact that the infantry in the cabin had not all left, and an infantry who had just stepped out of the cabin fell out directly, fortunately, he was not high above the ground, and quickly stood up, but the double-edged helicopter he was riding on, the fuselage kept bursting out of sparks in the sound of metal impact, and some bullet holes appeared on the surface of the fuselage, and then a large amount of fire and smoke from these bullet holes, And the rotor engine squirts outward!
So, the twin-rotor helicopter, which had just flown less than ten meters, crashed back to the ground with flames and wails! And the place where it fell is exactly where it put its infantry!
Seeing the helicopter fall to the ground, the infantry on the ground dodged in all directions in the exclamation, and only one person was hit by the fragments peeled from the helicopter, and fell to the ground, and then was dragged away by his comrades who were closer to him.
Then, with a "boom", the double-edged helicopter crashed to the ground, smashing up a circle of dust! When the dust cleared, most of the structure of the double-bladed helicopter's fuselage was distorted and deformed, and only two of the twin rotors were still slowly rotating, but most of the blades were missing.
The other helicopter did not take off and landed completely on the ground, so there was no first one, but the crew on board, including the two pilots, also left the plane at this time and ran towards the other side of the dirt slope, only a small number of infantry were still hiding on the side of the helicopter fuselage, firing in the other direction, as if there was an enemy there.
"What's going on?" Seeing this scene, Major Barney was almost stunned, it was clear that everything was going well, but he immediately lost a helicopter, which is not good news! Fortunately, he immediately came back to his senses, immediately grabbed the walkie-talkie, and asked loudly about the situation of other helicopters in the air.
"Anti-aircraft guns! It's anti-aircraft guns! At this time, the radio was already filled with all kinds of shouts of the helicopter team, and the friendly plane fell, which made these pilots very nervous, and Barney shouted loudly several times before someone answered his question, "There are several vehicles with four-barreled anti-aircraft guns behind the dirt slope!" ”
"Haven't you discovered such a big target before?!" The major was even more annoyed, but by this time, there was no one to answer his question, and the four double-edged helicopters landed directly on the road, and they had to put down the infantry squad they were carrying before they went to fight.
"Captain Said, you immediately take a few armored vehicles, go through the combat area, and bring me all the people on those two planes!" Seeing that the helicopter team was busy with his own business, Barney could only leave the task of rescuing his own personnel to his direct subordinates.
"Boss, we only have armored vehicles, and the attackers in the combat area have RPGs, so it's not wise to go through them directly." Captain Said, who was named by the major, is also a native of Somalia, he is taller and stronger than Barney, but now, after hearing this order, he looked at the major with a bitter look on his face, and said in embarrassment, "We need more support!" ”
"The other side has anti-aircraft artillery, and it will be difficult for the helicopter team to provide you with air fire assistance until they are dealt with! You'll need to figure it out for yourself! Major Barney said displeasedly, "Is it because of this that we can only watch our people die in front of our eyes?" ”
"But there is not enough fire support, and when we go in, we will also get stuck inside, not only will we not be able to save people, but we will also put ourselves in it, so is it okay?" Captain Said said in embarrassment, he also knew the military discipline of Iron Eagle, and let his comrades die in battle, if it was serious, he could be sentenced to death, "If only we had tanks!" ”
"But we don't have tanks now!" Major Barney glared at the other party, "Well, leave eight armored vehicles and half of the men to protect the trucks, and the rest of the men will be put into battle, the armored vehicles will assault in the middle, and the infantry will cover on both flanks, and pass through the combat area as fast as possible, resist the crash site, and rescue our personnel." ”
"Eight armored vehicles, to protect forty-eight trucks, it's not an easy task, they can't take care of such a large area, this is a plain terrain, but there is no danger to take advantage of."
"Contact the helicopter team and have them keep a helicopter to escort the convoy." As he spoke, Major Barney threw the walkie-talkie to Said, "You command the convoy, and I command the rescue operation!" ”
"Yes, sir." Seeing the Major personally on the horse, Captain Said breathed a sigh of relief, and now he didn't have to take any responsibility.
At this time, the four double-bladed helicopters had already put down all the four infantry squads they were carrying, and then took off again, divided into two groups, and bypassed the crash site from both flanks of the battlefield.
Then, with a flash of fire under the winged weapon rack of a double-edged side, an anti-tank missile flew out and sank into the area behind the small dirt slope, from where a cloud of fire rose and the missile destroyed a target.
Although it is not known what the helicopter killed, Barney believes that it should be an anti-aircraft gun, and the helicopter team will not be able to carry out ground support operations without ensuring his own safety first.
