Chapter 349: Dragon Soul Security is in Spain

It is said that the security company established by the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex secretly sent more than 100 people to Spain, of course they went in the name of an international column. The international column was on the side of the Spanish Republican Army, and there were people from all countries, so no one seriously investigated who was whom. If you can help the Spanish Republican Army, you are an international friend.

It is true that the fighting will of the Spanish Republican Army soldiers is not very tenacious. But the Spanish republican government also had a formidable force, the International Column, which was called for by the Comintern led by the Soviet Union, and the proletariat of all countries stood on the side of the Spanish Republic and set off a mass movement in solidarity with the Spanish people, the highest expression of which was the formation of the famous International Column. Anti-fascists from 54 countries, including workers, peasants, clerks, students, and intellectuals, braved the risk of being pursued by their reactionary governments, and made the trek to Spain, with a total strength of about 50,000.

When the volunteer soldiers of the International Column enlisted, they all signed an oath that ended with the following: "I come here voluntarily to save the freedom of Spain and the whole world, and I will give my last drop of blood if needed". Just like the recruitment slogan of the international column -- "Turn Spain into the grave of European fascists," these people with fanatical beliefs have a very tenacious will to fight and a very strong fighting force.

Now Franco's army has surrounded the gateway city of Madrid, the capital of Spain, but there are 30,000 international columns in the city, and the next urban street battle is absolutely cruel and bloody. Because now both sides have a lot of advanced weapons. For example, assault rifles are a weapon for street fighting.

One hundred and seventy-eight people secretly sent to Spain by the Dragon Soul Security Company formed a company, all of them were retired soldiers, and the commander, Second Lieutenant Thomas. The purpose of this unit in Spain is to conduct actual combat training and train this team into a real special forces.

On the morning of July 7, 1934. Franco immediately organized a large-scale urban offensive after completing the siege of the city of Brunet, and the battle was very fierce at the beginning, especially the tens of thousands of international columns stationed in the city of Brunet, these people fought extremely fiercely under the support of fanatical beliefs, every street, every house had their figure of sworn resistance, and the rebels had to pay countless lives for every step forward. In just one day of attack, Franco's rebel army lost more than 2,000 dead and more than 3,000 wounded, bringing the total attrition to more than 5,000.

Franco's total strength for the offensive was only 60,000, while the defense of Brunet consisted of 30,000 international columns, 20,000 Spanish government troops, and a large number of militias, even if Franco's resistance army, with the strong support of Germany and Italy and other countries, had advanced weapons and inexhaustible ammunition. This kind of siege street fighting is also very much worth the loss, the current situation. Franco made a fatal mistake in tactics, he wanted to take the gateway to the Spanish capital in one fell swoop, so as to besiege Madrid, the capital of Spain, but this contrast of forces and the desperate resistance of those international columns would definitely make the arrogant Franco bloody.

"Company commander, what should we do? Is it desperately fighting the rebels or whatever! A dragon soul security guard asked.

Now they are placed in a stronghold in the city. The rebel army commanded by Franco broke through the outlying positions organized by the government army in one fell swoop, and surrounded the city of Brunette in one day, and the Spanish government army was indeed very poor in combat effectiveness, and it would soon collapse in the face of the attack of Franco's army. Such an army is indeed a little too bad. And what about the international columns? Although it was fanatical, the command was very chaotic, and it was completely independent and could not form effective tactics.

Company Commander Thomas laughed and said, "Fight, of course you have to fight!" Why don't you beat us? We came to Spain this time with a training mission. Do you want to be a real special forces? ”

The security guards replied, "Of course we do!" But I don't know if I'll survive this time. ”

Thomas said: "Yes, how can there be immortals on the battlefield!" If you want to survive, you have to use the techniques you have learned in special training and listen to me. Everyone ambushed the buildings on both sides of the street, and I thought it wouldn't be long before the enemy attacked. Remember, use your assault rifle wisely, it can be both an accurate sniper rifle and a powerful light machine gun, which can be used to change magazines with one hand, right? Well, get ready for battle right away. ”

At Thomas's order, all the team members quickly dispersed and hid into the buildings on both sides of the street, like dexterous felines.

Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, Franco's army arrived. It was a small force, about two hundred men, and they were advancing towards the neighborhood where the Dragon Soul guards were located, under the cover of several armored vehicles.

However, they were soon fired by several mortars.

It turns out that this is a mortar shell fired by the dragon soul security guard hidden in the building, you must know that the mortar trajectory is curved, which is suitable for overtaking shooting at targets behind hidden objects such as hills, and can also be used for direct shooting at close targets, it is very easy to reload, the rate of fire is as high as 20 to 30 rounds per minute, the firepower is fierce, and the killing effect is good. The security guards hiding inside the building saw that the enemy had armored vehicles, so they first attacked them with these mortars, because machine guns and assault rifles could not gnaw at those armored vehicles.

The operation and use of the mortar is also very simple, after finding and aiming at the target, the mortar shell is slid from the muzzle into the barrel, and the bottom fire of the shell hits the firing pin at the bottom of the barrel by relying on its own mass; Or it can rely on its own mass to slide to the bottom of the gun body, and after the shooter releases the firing pin, it will hit the bottom of the shell. The primer ignited the basic charge tube at the tail of the shell, and then the gunpowder tied to the additional charge pack on the outside of the shell was also ignited. Although there is a gap between the shell and the barrel to prevent the shell from slipping, the closed air ring on the outside of the shell can still create a great pressure in the chamber, pushing the gun out of the muzzle and flying towards the target. The minimum firing range of the mortar is only more than a hundred meters, and the maximum firing range is several thousand meters, so it can be near and far.

A huge explosion sounded, several mushroom clouds rose in the middle of the street and on both sides, even the ground trembled in the explosion of mortar shells, the road surface on the street was blown out of several large craters, and for a time debris mixed with shnel flew everywhere, and several Franco's soldiers who were lying down or hiding in time were shot, and more than a dozen people were killed and wounded in an instant. There was also an armored car that was unfortunately shot and turned into a pile of burning scrap metal. (To be continued.) )
