Chapter 569 [The Tragic Bulletproof "Humvee" Convoy]

Hashut had already made his own decision, and General Gareson knew that persuasion was hopeless, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was silent for a few seconds before he said: "Lieutenant Colonel Hart, this is your decision, and I grant your request." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Shuhart took death as if it were home, and took it with ease.

"Super 62, send them over."

"Roger, OVER!"

After the pilot replied to the command center, he turned his head to look at Shuhart and Gordon, his eyes full of admiration.

Sincere admiration for the bravery of the two!

Without too many lyrical words, the pilot gave the two of them a thumbs up, and instead controlled the Super 62 helicopter to find a relatively open intersection, lowered the altitude and flew over.

"C-2, Shuhart and Gordon have disembarked and departed, Over!" The Super 62 hovered about half a meter above the ground, and when the two Delta snipers jumped off the plane, the pilot immediately began to climb to avoid being hit by rockets.

At this time, nearly 20 Aideed militiamen, surrounded by two or three hundred civilians, had already run to the right front where Super 64 was located, and joined the Somalis who were originally here, and began a fierce attack together.

Broken walls, houses, smashed vehicles, etc., have all become cover for them to take advantage of the opportunity to approach!

"Da Da Da ......"

More than a dozen AK series automatic weapons, firing at helicopters at the same time, even if the Somalis have bad marksmanship, they look quite ferocious.

"Fack!"

Before he could hold out for five seconds, the pilot Durant was shot in his right hand, two fingers were broken and flew out, and the MAC10 submachine gun in his hand also fell out of his hand.

The sub-machine gunner Shut, who was guarding the other side, was also not spared and was shot in the shoulder.

Fortunately, the Somalis shoot at a very close range, the kinetic energy of the bullet is strong, the stopping force is weak, and the penetration force of the warhead is enough to easily penetrate the shoulder.

One shot and two eyes, and there is no cavity effect!

And this kind of one-shot wound in two eyes, as long as it does not hit the vital points of the major arteries and internal organs, in fact, it is very poor in stopping people, and it can only cause bleeding and pain.

Normal people carry three or four rounds, as long as they don't lose too much blood, it's normal to run all over the world!

However, although Durant and Xiut's injuries were not serious, they were shot in just a few seconds, and if there was no external intervention, the two would have been on the top for a minute at most, and they were either shot to death or captured alive by Aideed's militia.

At this critical juncture, Shuhart and Gordon, who were rushing over from the other side of the street more than a hundred miles away, rushed over in time.

"Smack, smack, smack!"

Shuhart is worthy of being a sniper of the special forces, an M14 rifle equipped with a 2x scope, three shots in a row, and in less than two seconds, he took out three Aideed militiamen who rushed to the front.

"Tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk!"

Gordon didn't pull it down either, and the M733 automatic rifle with a muffler installed killed two people with two bursts.

The momentum of the Somali offensive, because the end of the five men, was temporarily contained, and the others did not bury their heads and charged, but began to shoot with the help of cover.

It was at this time that the Somali civilians who were watching the excitement on the sidelines, and when they saw that the Aideed militia in front of them was killed, they immediately ran up like crazy and started a wave of "bag licking" mode.

The remaining Somali militias, because of the influx of civilians, had to temporarily halt their attacks.

Taking advantage of the gap in the "help" of Somali civilians, Shuhart and Gordon strode from behind the street and approached the side of the helicopter.

With Gordon in charge of shooting cover, Shuhart entered the cabin and shouted, "Hey, guys, are you all right?" ”

"God, it's great to see you, I'm fine, I'm just a little injured!" Durant raised his right hand, which was cautious with three fingers, and smiled bitterly.

"This group of people is crazy!" Holding down the wound in his shoulder, he picked up his rifle from the ground in his left hand and asked Shuhart in a loud voice: "Are the rescue troops coming?" ”

"The Rangers and Humvees are on their way, and now we're all the rescue forces, it's too dangerous here, we need to get out of here as soon as possible."

Shuhart shot and killed a militiaman, and raised his head to signal to the house next to him, "Let's go to the house next to us, you go first, and we will cover for you." ”

"That's all for now."

Hearing that rescue forces were still on the way, and that more and more Somalis were appearing in the streets ahead and in the houses on both sides, the deputy machine gunner, Schut, knew that if he remained in the helicopter, he would die.

So, he and Durant helped each other, collected all the ammunition that could be taken away in the cabin, and quickly left the helicopter and withdrew to the house with the help of the fire cover of Shuhart and Gordon.

When Durant and the two entered the house safely, Shuhart entered the engine room to check on the remaining two crew members, and when he saw that they were dead, he shouted: "Gordon, back into the house, you are responsible for the left, and the right is handed over to me." ”

"Okay, no problem, you go over first, I'll cover you." Gordon took refuge behind the helicopter and replaced the new magazine, and once again suppressed fire on the Somalis who had taken refuge behind bunkers in fear of their marksmanship.

Alternate cover retreats are a basic tactic, and Schuhart and Gordon have been working together for many years and have a very good understanding.

As soon as Gordon finished firing a magazine, Schuhart managed to run into the house and began to take over the work of suppressing the firing cover, allowing Gordon to enter the house smoothly.

This house does not have a solid cement red brick wall like a Chinese house, it is just a large adobe brick made of mud mixed with lime grass clippings, stacked into a wall of earth, with many large pores in the middle.

"Romeo 64, Super 64 has two survivors, the other two have died, we are now starting to build a defensive line at the crash site, there are too many Somalis here, we can't hold it for long, Over!"

After Shuhart reported the progress to Colonel Harrell, he said to Durant: "Man, are you all right, I need you to hold the rear, OK?" ”

"OK, we'll take it to the back door." With a submachine gun in his left hand, Durant walked to the rear of the house with Schute to prevent the enemy from rushing in.

The crash site was temporarily stabilized by the addition of two special forces, Shuhart and Gordon, and it was not a problem to support it for about ten minutes.

But if the Rangers can't get over in time after ten minutes, and the Humvee convoy doesn't arrive on time.

That's the result......

However, the Hummer team is still unreliable and has once again suffered a heavy setback -

Following the guidance of Colonel Harrell, the Humvee convoy, which had been around for most of the day, unexpectedly came to the first crash site.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Lieutenant Colonel McNai's face turned white!

The heavy machine guns in the convoy were running out of ammunition, 80 percent of the men had been wounded or killed, and the armor on the outside of the vehicles was so badly damaged that it was no longer possible to provide effective overall protection.

Turning to look at the carriage behind him, all of them were covered with blood on their faces, and there was not a single intact soldier, Lieutenant Colonel McNay understood at this time.

With the current cart full of wounded soldiers, coupled with the tattered convoy, it has lost the meaning of existence!

Lieutenant Colonel McNay had no choice but to call Colonel Harrell and ask to withdraw from the battle and return to the base, and then come back to the rescue after replenishing ammunition and replacing vehicles.
