Chapter 40: The Three-Headed Serpent
Now that the Second Chechen War has ended, the main force of the Chechen rebels has completely collapsed under the three-dimensional and high-intensity strikes of the Russian military, and only a small part of the Chechen army has taken refuge in the mountains of southern Russia and continues to confront the political axe army with guerrilla tactics. It can be said that these soldiers who have survived the two Chechen wars are all heroic members of the Chechen army who have been through a hundred battles and are constantly growing up in the smoke of gunpowder, and the strength hidden in them should definitely not be underestimated.
This group of Chechen soldiers, who have been attacking small units of the Russian army, have used terrorist tactics even more after cooperating with Afghan guerrillas and Amirali, the leader of the "East Turkistan Liberation Organization" No. 3. In the face of such an armed force, which has rich experience in actual combat, relies on the mountains as a platform, and has the voluntary assistance and cooperation of local residents, it is very unlikely that they will be completely annihilated at one time by concentrating their efforts on sweeping away the mountains that are not suitable for large-scale mechanized operations. However, the deployment of heavy troops in a large area in the former Chechen control area, the use of point and area space blockade, coupled with the support of mobile troops, to completely strangle this group of rebels in the deep mountains, is even more unrealistic for the Russian political axe, which has just experienced the second Chechen war and urgently needs to breathe and relieve financial pressure.
The Russian political axe could only tolerate the existence of the remnants of the rebel armed forces in Chechnya for the time being. In the face of the hundreds of mercenary groups of all sizes that have swarmed into Russia, the Russian political axe has simply turned a blind eye and even secretly sent information to the mercenary groups that are relatively strong enough to pose a deadly threat to the guerrillas formed by the Chechen rebels.
You don't have to spend a single shot, you don't need to send planes, tanks, artillery, you don't have to consume the precious lives of soldiers, you can sit on the side and watch the tiger fight, this is definitely the thing that the Russian political axe is most willing to see, and they did it!
These mercenary groups are like a swarm of locusts, they enter the mountains, while trying to chase the traces left by the war song, while fighting with the Chechen guerrillas who are familiar with the terrain and are really elusive.
In this deep mountain, for half a month, there were battles every day, and everywhere you could hear the frantic strafing of light and heavy weapons and the bombardment of grenades, grenades, rocket artillery and even Vulcan cannons on Russian military helicopter gunships. Everywhere you can see the tragic battlefields that have been beaten terribly, and everywhere you can see hastily buried and tied together with two branches, barely a grave of a cross.
In just two weeks, at least 1,500 mercenaries, 420 Chechen partisans and 25 Russian political axes were killed on the land. After two weeks of bloody battles, at least 20 mercenary groups were completely wiped out or lost the ability to continue their missions in the narrow battle, and at least 50 mercenary groups announced their withdrawal from the mercenary group competition that had been upgraded to a battle of honor.
But in the past two weeks, the two special operations teams have gradually come to the fore in the continuous bloody battles.
There is a group of only five members, all of them are ultra-small units composed of Asians, no one knows the title of their mercenary group, in fact, there are many people who suspect that they are not a mercenary group put together for financial interests at all, but a senior special forces unit of a certain country. Each of them has a heavy camouflage oil paint on their faces, so that people can't see their faces clearly, and each of them is skilled in military technology, tacit cooperation, and ruthless, it can really be called murder without blinking. They rarely cause trouble, but once a mercenary group provokes them beyond the minimum limit they can bear, then what is about to open is definitely a terrible slaughter that will not stop and can be recorded in the history of modern special warfare.
Of the twenty mercenary regiments that were completely annihilated, four of them thought they could be gnawed off because they had few people, and they were cut off by their backhands. Of the four hundred and twenty Chechen partisans who died, at least a hundred died at their hands.
The second special operations team has fewer members, only three people!
Among these three people is the target that everyone is most concerned about...... Warrior Song!
There was a mercenary group of nearly 30 members, because of the wrong use of violent methods to "persuade" Zhan Xia Ge to accept their protection, and this three-person special operations team used various terrain and pre-planted mines in the deep mountains to annihilate one by one, and finally only the deputy regiment commander escaped from the mountains with the bloody body of the blown off left arm.
When others asked him about the battle, the deputy commander's eyes were full of fear, and he hissed: "Mines, be careful of mines, the whole mountain is full of mines!" There may be mines hidden under the corpses of our comrades, mines may be hanging from the treetops above our heads, and there may be mines tied to the legs of a big bird squatting in the trees, and when we pass by the big bird, they just shoot and use the 'remote control' method to make the big bird fly in fright and detonate the explosives under the tree! Even a harmless-looking wild fruit can let them hide a ping-pong ball grenade, and they blow up the grenade hanging in the air with a single shot from a distance, and when we subconsciously dodge around, we once again stepped on a more terrifying and lethal mine! We've been careful, but we're still stepping into their preconceived minefields, and we're still paying the heavy casualties. Before we could engage them, half of our soldiers had fallen in a chase of just two thousand meters! ”
It wasn't until this moment that the commanders of the mercenary group knew that this time the target they were going to protect and fight for was the toughest man here. It is definitely not an easy task to "persuade" such a figure to accept their protection, and honestly follow them back to China, and help them get back a lot of money and mercenary reputation.
And the Chechen rebels already had a complete understanding of this, because they found that they had met real experts in guerrilla warfare! This three-person special operations team headed by Zhan Xia Ge constantly used all kinds of guerrilla and ambush tactics to attack their soldiers, and all kinds of tactical means such as poisoning, arson, assassination, sniping, sneak attack, and forcible attack were really used perfectly. In just two weeks, at least 180 Chechen troops and ETA terrorists have died as a result of their guerrilla tactics.
In the face of this special operations group, which is more capable of running, hiding, fighting, and guerrilla than them, they have already been given a loud nickname among the Chechen guerrillas...... Three-headed snake!
"Crazy, crazy, all crazy!" An angry roar crashed against the stone walls of the valley, echoing far and wide, and even the nearby leaves made a "whoosh" and "whoosh" sounds, as if in response to his voice.
"There are only three of us, and there are a hundred and fifty professional soldiers with weapons on the other side! Even if you think you are very good, you are not very good, you are the elite of the elite, but the Chechen soldiers who can survive the two Chechen wars are also excellent soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles! ”
A voice cautiously persuaded: "Master always has his own reasons for doing this, and we have done repeated reconnaissance on them, and we have a clear grasp of their personnel structure, weapons and equipment, and other information. If we can really lead them into the ambush circle as Master predicts, we do have a chance to inflict a fatal blow on them, and then use the method of cannibalization to gnaw away their armed forces little by little! ”
"Zhao Haiping, do you have any brains?" The voice was even more angry, "Your master is obviously tired of being alive and wants to die on this battlefield!" There was a chance to escape, but he had been living in this valley and wasting money with Chechen rebels. Zhao Haiping, do your own calculations, since the three of us met together, how many battles have we fought in just one month? Regardless of the scale, no matter how many bullets whizzed around my head, we've been through a hundred and seven battles, an average of three a day! The front is better, the two of us followed you, who don't know what was stimulated, but obviously went crazy, and swept the stragglers of the Chechen army in the valley, which can be regarded as evenly matched, everyone survives on the battlefield with their real skills, and now Xiao Shrimp Millet is tired of playing, and his old man's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and he wants to swallow a 150-person guerrilla camp in one go. I'm a mercenary, but I'm not a death squad that knows I'm going to die, and I stupidly rush inside! ”
Warrior Song, who was digging a piece of wood with a tiger tooth saber and trying to make it into an explosive shell, did not raise his head and said, "Mr. Orlanya, you are right, you are just a mercenary, not a death squad, and no one will pay you a penny in these one hundred and seven battles. If you're not satisfied, your legs will grow on your own body, and you can always break up with us. Aren't you known as the 'Flying Tiger of South Africa', this piece of small mountains and rivers and small jungles should be difficult for your old man, right? ”
Oranlia, the captain of the mercenary known as the "Flying Tiger of South Africa", who once fought to the death on the battlefield with Warrior Song, but because he encountered a common enemy, joined forces to fight a beautiful assault battle, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "'! Don't you blush when you say this? It was I who saved the life of your stupid and stupid apprentice who only knew how to act on your orders and was stunned by the T80 tank, and it was we who saved the life of you, the madman who led a large group of Chechen terrorists to the valley, in general, I am the life-saving benefactor of the two of you, you bastard boy doesn't want to know how to repay your kindness, and you want to push me to death?! ”
"Now that we have been taken by you into the southern mountains where the Chechen rebels are most concentrated, and have fought so many battles, who does not know that I, the 'South African Flying Tigers', are in the same boat with [***] of you? Do you really want me to be beaten into a hornet's nest by those guerrillas who have already been killed by the red-eyed guerrillas?! ”
Oranlia is not wrong at all, they are now in the endless mountains, full of Chechen rebels who were scattered and fled into the mountains during the Second Chechen War, and everywhere you can see Chechen guerrillas of varying numbers in the mountains, mixed with Afghan guerrillas with rich combat experience, and groups of religious fanatics. If the three of them were scattered in this situation, it would be better for Zhan Xia Ge and Zhao Haiping to support each other and take care of each other, and Oranlia would have to cross this 500-kilometer-long mountain alone, and once he encountered a guerrilla force formed by Chechen rebels, it would be difficult for him to escape the pursuit of the Chechen guerrillas without any partners to answer him and he was not familiar with the terrain.
Zhan Xia Ge poured more than a dozen bullets from the deep mountains, and a dozen of them were filled with gasoline, and then stuffed the bullet shells sealed with wax into the hollowed out wood in the middle, and carefully filled the explosives taken out of a shell that did not explode.
Finally, with the addition of a set of walkie-talkies captured from the Chechen rebels, Zhan Xia Ge was made into a simple remote control firing device, so that Zhan Xia Ge was made into a "wooden tube" remote control mine. Looking at the row of strangely shaped mines around Zhan Xia Ge, which are fully made for the physical and psychological weaknesses of human beings, even a battle-hardened mercenary like Oranlia has to admit that this is indeed a batch of murderous weapons that kill people and set fires, and apply despicable, shameless, and obscene combat aesthetics to the extreme.
Zhan Xia Ge grabbed another grenade, and repeatedly compared, as if he was going to tie dozens of bullet casings filled with gasoline and sealed with white ash to this grenade, and make a high-explosive incendiary grenade that was more shameless than the steel ball grenade, in order to get along for more than 30 days, Orlanlia's understanding of Zhan Xia Ge, he would definitely bury a few more high-explosive incendiary mines near this high-explosive incendiary grenade with limited actual lethal lethality and amazing blasting visual effects!
While re-melting a bunch of rags picked up from various battlefields in the deep mountains, and combining them into a sharp weapon that kills people, Zhan Xia Ge raised his eyebrows lightly and said casually: "Oh, then please ask Zhao Haiping to repeat for us, how our 'South African Flying Tiger' Mr. Oranlia extended a hand of friendship to you, and how he bravely rescued me, a Chinese soldier, from hundreds of Chechen rebels!" ”
"At that time, I saw that the main gun of the T80 tank was already aimed at the position where I was hiding, and I jumped down regardless of the howitzer, although I was not hit by the howitzer, but the air wave of the shell explosion still pushed me down a hill." With a sincere smile, Zhao Haiping said, "When I woke up, I had been dragged behind a bush by Mr. Oranlia, and he was clutching a cross around his neck, where he prayed to the people of our Lord Jesus Mary with great mercy and compassion. ”
Oranlia's face instantly turned into a pig's liver, and he glared at Zhao Haiping and shouted, "Did you hear everything?" ”
"Yes, you lowered your voice at the time, but I was lying on your feet at the time, and your voice was much larger than the average person, and it was difficult to hear clearly."
Zhao Haiping said: "Although I am a farmer, I have at least finished junior high school, and after joining the army, I also tutored English in cultural classes. You've been repeating the simplest words there, and I can barely make sense of what you're saying! ”
The warrior singer said: "What was he talking about at the time? ”
"The words that Mr. Orlanlia kept saying at that time were 'Don't come,' 'Don't come,' 'Please, please, don't come.'" Zhao Haiping said honestly: "Mr. Orlanlia found that my legs were still exposed outside the bushes, he immediately broke off a few branches and put them on my legs, and also helped me make a small disguise!" Mr. Olanlia was really startled when he found out that I had opened my eyes, and he called out in Chinese, "Damn, are you awake?!" ”
"And then?"
"Then I suddenly found out that Master, you were carrying a 7.62 mm heavy machine gun, and while firing, you were retreating in our direction, and behind you, there were at least a hundred Chechen terrorists in pursuit?"
"And then?"
"Of course I'm jumping up and shooting at the nearest Chechen rebel who is chasing after you, Master!"
"And then?"
"Then Mr. Oranlia suddenly became inexplicably angry, and he kicked me hard!" Zhao Haiping said suspiciously: "At that time, he shouted out a word, as if it was '**', what does the word Master mean?" ”
Zhan Xia Ge still asked in his unchanging voice, "And then?" ”
"And then, of course, Master, you spotted us and immediately ran in our direction, and the group of Chechen terrorists also ran towards you. It seems that some of them knew Mr. Oranlia and called out his name. ”
"And then?"
Before Zhao Haiping could answer, Oranlia stared at him and shouted, "Then those fools thought that I was standing with the Chinese [***] side, and they thought that I was your companion, responsible for receiving your retreat!" Why the fuck am I so unlucky? After taking on a mission, I thought I could earn a few pocket money, but I met a madman on the battlefield who dared to challenge thousands of people with a high-level dual-purpose heavy machine gun, and almost ended up with the same end, and was bitten back by the world's most petty employer who dared to claim to be a terrorist for millions of dollars in hire money. The worst thing is that I just escaped from the ghost place of the ice board, and I met the Chechen and East Turkistan combined forces that responded to the retreat of those stingy ghosts. As soon as I replied 'yes,' they carried out the strategic policy of killing people and saving financial expenditures to the end, and directly gave me a shuttle of bullets! ”
"If I hadn't been fast, I would have been beaten into a hornet's nest by them! I had already escaped their pursuit, hidden in the mountains, and waited for the limelight to pass and quietly leave this hellish place, I really didn't plan to ask for the millions of dollars in the final payment, nor did I intend to pursue the evil deeds of the world's most petty terrorists. But God knows which nerve I had to meddle in to save a soldier. ”
The more Orlanya spoke, the angrier he became, he waved his arms and shouted: "You old man is willing to fight with a coalition of more than 100 Chechen rebels and the terrorists of the 'East Turkistan Liberation Organization' with a large number of enemies, that is your own business, but why do you have to run in my direction?" And the soldier I saved who seems to be an honest soldier is the founder disciple of your great madman! As soon as the gunshots rang out around me, I was fucking pulled onto a thief ship by you and became a member of the Chechen army's blacklist! ”
"Well, it seems that I have indeed wronged you a little! There is no subordination between us, and each of us should have the power to decide which path he wants to take. Facing the surprise face of Orlania, the warrior sang: "Let's have a boiled vote, the minority obeys the majority." If most of us support the retreat, we will find a way to get rid of the Chechen guerrillas, and the mercenary groups who God knows if they have taken the wrong medicine and chase after us like heat stallions every day, to safety, we will be scattered and we will not owe anything from each other; If the majority of people support staying and fighting, we will continue to play hide and seek in this mountain with the Chechen guerrillas, and let's teach those guys what is called jungle and mountain integrated special warfare! ”
Oranlia stared at Zhao Haiping affectionately with hopeful eyes, until he saw Zhao Haiping's whole body standing on end, and he said "gently": "Mr. Zhao, I remember that in your China, there is an ancient saying called 'Receiving the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring', right?" ”
Zhao Haiping nodded vigorously.
"In any case, if I hadn't dragged you into that bush, maybe you would have been discovered by the Chechen army before you could have come to your senses, and stabbed into a sieve with a bayonet, I would have been your savior. I think...... You should be generous enough to vote for your life-saver, right? ”
Zhao Haiping glanced at the expressionless Zhan Xia Ge on his face, then looked at Olanlia, scratched his scalp and said: "You are not wrong at all, but Zhan Xia Ge, he, he is my master, I still want to listen to the master's words!" ”
Orlania rolled her eyes for a long time before she shouted weakly: "I protest, this is a vote without any spirit of justice, and you have insulted the sacred word 'Ming Boil'!" ”
At this time, suddenly not far from the Chechen guerrilla station, fierce gunfire rang out, and I don't know whether it was between the mercenary group and the mercenary group, or between the mercenary group and the Chechen guerrilla group, began again.
Zhan Xia Ge continued to assemble his trick with the same expression, His Royal Highness the South African Flying Tiger Oranlia continued to sit on the ground panting and rolling his eyes, while Zhao Haiping, a good student who had learned and learned from time to time, continued to squat in front of Zhan Xia Ge, staring at him with a pair of big eyes bigger than a bull's eye, carefully watching every movement of Zhan Xia Ge, for fear of missing any small link.
In this month, Zhao Haiping benefited the most! He followed behind Warrior Song and the South African Flying Tiger Oranlia and truly saw what it means to be a super special operations elite. He learned the design of sniping and deterioration from the Song of Warriors, and in the body of Orlanya, he learned the combined application of rifles, pistols, and sabers, learned a set of bayonet and dagger fighting skills that even the Song of the Warriors had to start learning in secret, and even learned a set of torture methods for prisoners of war that professional soldiers, especially Chinese professional soldiers, would basically not touch!
In one battle after another, Zhao Haiping followed behind the two special elites, constantly learning, and constantly applying the knowledge and skills he learned to actual combat.
Warrior Song and Oralia both suddenly tilted their heads together, and they listened carefully to the increasingly intense gunfire, and the two exchanged a puzzled look at each other.
"No, it doesn't seem to be an encounter, but one side has stepped into a premeditated trap for the other side, and has been completely surrounded by an absolutely superior enemy!" ”
The strafing sound of the two heavy machine guns, which had been roaring wildly from the beginning of the battle, suddenly stopped, and after more than ten seconds, the two heavy machine guns arranged in different directions began to roar again, but before three seconds, the two heavy machine guns stopped firing again.
Orlanlia and Warrior Song's faces changed dramatically at the same time.
When you are completely surrounded and surrounded by bullets on all sides, you can maintain a calm attitude, make the most effective judgment of the battlefield, and quickly destroy the enemy's most threatening heavy firepower.
What a scary sniper!
What a terrible tactical cultivation!
What's even more terrifying is the perfect cooperation and tacit understanding between the commander of this army and their team!
Warrior Song and Oranlia jumped up at the same time, and they ran to a hillside and set up the Russian military high-powered telescopes that they had captured from the Chechen partisans.
In the valley more than 800 meters away, the five mercenaries were completely surrounded by more than 200 Chechen guerrillas, who had clearly premeditated, and bullets were pouring on them from all sides, hitting them over and over again behind the rocks where they were hiding, splashing sparks and layers of stone chips, so that they could not lift their heads at all. The rain of bullets was mixed with rockets, grenades and mortar shells fired by Chechen guerrillas. But the five mercenaries who were completely surrounded by them and suppressed at the foot of the mountain seemed to have a third eye, and they could always make urgent military evasive moves before the heavy weapons hit their hidden positions. Occasionally, they seized the opportunity to raise their heads, and as soon as the shots rang out, a soldier on the side of the Chechen guerrillas would inevitably fall headlong.
"Bang!"
Less than a hundred meters away from the hillside where they were lurking, gunshots rang out, and Warrior Song and Orlanlia poked their heads out and were surprised to find that in the middle of a bush, there was a sniper covered in a grass-green camouflage net. Oranlia quietly picked up the M16 automatic rifle in his hand, and before he could pull the trigger, he suddenly heard a soft "pop", and the head of the sniper, who was covered in camouflage nets, suddenly exploded into a bloody mess, and the sniper rifle in his hand was dropped in the bushes, looking at the sniper rifle that was shattered by a single shot, Oranlia gasped again.
He couldn't imagine that in this world, there were such soldiers!
At the same time, Zhan Xia Ge's face suddenly turned pale, because he looked at it...... Zhu Jianjun!
Zhu Jianjun roared loudly: "Tiehui, how are you?!" ”
"That kid used a special steel core bullet, and the bullet pierced through the body armor and then through my body!" Tie Hui coughed and shouted, "But I didn't make him feel better, if you want to snipe the Blue Thorn of the Fifth Special Force, unless it is a shot that blows my head, he will lose his life first!" ”
The heavy machine guns of the Chechen guerrillas in the distance began to roar again, this time the Chechen guerrillas had a real understanding of the strength of this special operations force of only five people, and the bullets they fired were more dense, so that the five people could not raise their heads at all, and suddenly the roar of rocket artillery fire sounded again at a certain position on the hillside, and a rocket drew a straight tail line in the air, and slammed into the [***] people who were hiding behind a rock and had lost the ability to maneuver and dodge.
Li Guqing, who had absolute hearing and could instantly determine the point of the shot, suddenly showed a desperate look on his face, he rolled out from behind the rock with all his might, only four or five meters away, the rocket slammed into the position where he had just stayed, and the strong explosion wave mixed with scorching metal shrapnel and thousands of pieces of debris burst out in all directions in a radial manner. Li Guqing quickly rolled on the ground and made a series of impeccable military dodge moves.
But there are so many enemies, they shoot too many bullets, they don't need to aim at all, as long as hundreds of automatic rifles shoot wildly together, it is enough to form a rain of death bullets that no longer has any gaps, no more possibility of survival!
Several gorgeous blood flowers burst out from Li Guqing's body at the same time, just when his body trembled fiercely and involuntarily stopped slightly, more bullets hit his body, and suddenly there was a loud "boom", and a blazing fireball suddenly rose from the position of the grenade on Li Guqing's body. Li Guqing was thrown two or three meters high by the explosive shock wave formed by this fireball, and his body was like a doll that had been damaged by a naughty child, constantly rolling with incomplete blood.
At this moment, it was as if time had stood still.
The bullets fired from all directions and corners poured like rain, and they drilled into Li Guqing's body fiercely, and clumps of blood and clumps of broken flesh kept splashing from Li Guqing's body, and when his body finally "snapped" and fell to the ground full of bullet holes, he had turned into a piece of minced meat that could no longer beat a little shape.
Gu Nianhan looked at the land scattered with his brother's blood and flesh, tears could no longer flow out of his eyes uncontrollably, he slapped himself with all his might, he hissed and cried: "Why? Why? Why do we step into the encirclement of the enemy without realizing it, why don't we hear it, why don't we smell it? I'm the one who hurt everyone, it's me who hurt everyone! ”
"Old Gu, you've done enough!" Zhu Jianjun shouted loudly: "If you want to live, hold on to the weapon in your hand, even if we want to die, we will drag a few more enemies to accompany us to the battle!" ”
As the captain of this special operations force, Zhu Jianjun quickly reflected in his heart: even the machines have times when they stop and rest, they have fought too many battles in a row during this period of time, and they have reached their limits. After smelling too much gunpowder smoke and listening to the roar of weapons shooting, Li Guqing and Gu Nianhan's hearing and smell inevitably began to dull, and he, the commander, actually ignored this point, which would cause their small army to step into the dead end that the enemy had long preset but should not have prepared for them!
No one can ambush the circle in front of the special forces led by Zhu Jianjun for the surname!
Zhu Jianjun guessed not wrong at all, this was originally a trap carefully designed by the Chechen guerrillas in order to eliminate the three-headed snake led by Zhan Xia Ge!
Tie Hui violently stood up from his hidden ground, he quickly raised his gun with a smooth and heart-wrenching movement, and fired, and with a light and crisp gunshot, a Chechen guerrilla carrying a single rocket launcher 600 meters away who was about to fire again only felt that it was dark in front of him, and fell to the ground. At the same time, Tie Hui's left hand was broken by the bullet, and before he could lie down, a steel-core bullet pierced his body armor and directly pierced the beating heart in his chest.
"Haha...... I've fucking avenged the blue shirts! Be careful, there's also a sniper ......"
When Tie Hui fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth were still slightly hooked, provoking a smile worthy of his life. He used his life to witness the oath that a soldier of the Fifth Special Force made in front of the solemn national flag when he was retired, and he tried his best to warn his brother in the last seconds of his life when the bullet pierced his heart!
Watching Zhan Xia Ge gently wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and locked the scope on the rifle in his hand three hundred meters away, a sniper lurking in the big tree, Oranlia widened his eyes and shouted in a low voice: "Are you crazy? There are more than 200 Chechen partisans there, and you will definitely die if you do this! ”
