Chapter 345: Purging Operation (3)
In the dense primeval forest, in addition to the noise of all kinds of birds, it is accompanied by the crackling sound of military boots stepping on the branches and leaves of dead trees.
At nine o'clock in the morning, after He Yu gave the order to attack at the base camp, the entire army was divided into five brigades and each divided into several squads to launch a siege of the indigenous tribes facing the west.
The speed of the march was very smooth, and there was almost no hindrance, which made the officers in charge of their respective teams have to worry a little, and the calmer the more terrible the truth is hidden, maybe out of nowhere will shoot a poisoned arrow or a javelin.
This conjecture had come true an hour earlier, when the troops were still three miles away from the indigenous tribes when they came under the first attack from the departure, spears and poisoned arrows fired at the Combine.
If it weren't for the shields that had been prepared, I am afraid that many people would have been shot or sacrificed in this forest.
Yu Shan hid behind a shield and looked at Qiao Yan with palpitations: "I'm right, this time it's definitely a tough battle, these natives are definitely not so easy to deal with, this is much more clever than the natives we dealt with on Christmas Island, you see, they can actually ambush, and they also know how to sneak attack, which is absolutely not available to natives like Christmas Island." ”
Seeing that his friend was still chattering, Qiao Yan shouted angrily in order to affect the morale of the army: Okay Yushan, now we have to break out, once it gets dark, it will be difficult for us to go out, tell me about your method.
"Well, method," Yu Shan looked at the bows and spears that kept shooting around, and the speed of their fall changed significantly.
"Break through to the east, I'll take a squad of soldiers to open the breakthrough in the east with firepower, and then let's make a detour to the west to reach the designated position, what do you think?"
To the east is indeed good, there is a small high ground there, even if it does not break through. As long as we can spend the night there tonight, we can be absolutely safe, and at least we can build a fortification. Qiao Yan took his glasses and looked at a small dirt slope to the east.
"Be careful, your mother is still waiting for you to go back at home," Qiao Yan patted the other party on the shoulder, and then turned to look at the enemy who was attacking head-on.
Yu Shan smiled, although Qiao Yan didn't say much, he was still very worried about his comfort, "Don't worry, I'll definitely come back." ”
With the sound of several violent grenade explosions, Yu Shan led a class of people. Moving slowly and slowly towards the east, he was indeed attacked less than from several other directions, which proved that he had made the right decision.
"Alright, boys, now is the time to see which of you has the strongest arm, listen to my command, and throw grenades together."
"Sir, isn't it a waste for us to do this, I think we should surround it. There weren't a few people on the other side. ”
One of the soldiers whispered back to Yu Shan's words and offered his own suggestion, because according to the instructor during training, grenades are generally used only when encountering a large enemy. A small-scale enemy like this should learn to use outflanking tactics.
"Alright soldier, I know your advice is good, but it will cause us a lot of casualties, and none of you want to see the sun tomorrow. Listen to me, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, it's just a matter of using more grenades. Aren't your lives worth a few grenades? ”
Yu Shan's rhetorical question silenced the soldier, so he lowered his head and held a grenade in his hand, waiting for his order.
"Now on, one, two, three throws."
"Bang, bang," the huge fires and smoke rose like clouds in the sky within a few dozen meters of the small dirt bag in front of them. After a few minutes, by the time the smoke had cleared, there was no sign of resistance near the hill.
"You, you, outflank from the left and right, quickly occupy the highest point, and the others and I attack head-on." Yu Shan's professional tactical moves made him and the usual complaining guy not think of each other at all.
"Smack, smack," just a few shots were fired, and the natives of the hill were all dead in the explosion of the grenades. Then Yu Shan sent a signal to Qiao Yan to retreat here with all the people.
Once the breakthrough is opened, it is impossible to surround it, not to mention that this group of natives can think of encircling it is already very good, and now in the face of such a powerful Australian soldier, there are already many people who dare not take half a step forward, let alone plug the gap and surround Qiao Yan and them in the ambush circle again.
"Good job, Yu Shan, learn to use your brain, this is what a professional commander should do," Qiao Xian praised Shan's combat techniques as soon as he met him, and then began to arrange tasks.
At the moment the enemy has not caught up, we must get out of this forest as soon as possible, according to the intelligence there is a camp of the natives less than a kilometer, and we will only be safest when we meet up with the other troops there.
According to the command of the War Department, all troops must arrive at the designated position at 16 o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise they will be attacked by more unknown attacks in the dense jungle, especially at night.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Qiao Yan rushed to the designated direction, and naturally there was no time to pay attention to these natives who were ambushed, because as they left, these natives would naturally go towards their lair.
Now it depends on whether the various troops can enter the battle site according to the specified requirements, since Qiao Yan can encounter an ambush in the mountains, others will inevitably be ambushed, judging from the number and scale of the ambush, the natives dispatched a lot of people.
At this time, there should be no young people in their lair, if it weren't for the fact that spending the night in the rainforest was too dangerous, Qiao Yan would definitely order these ambushed guys to be wiped out.
The troops continued to move forward, and Yu Shan broke off with a squad of soldiers, and occasionally a group of smaller natives caught up, and they were either repulsed by Yu Shan or completely annihilated.
As the distance from the designated place gets closer and closer, the obstacles encountered in front are getting bigger and bigger, these natives actually designed a lot of traps and traps in order to block the attack, fortunately, Qiao Yan Yushan has some combat experience, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to confess that I will not be able to go back here long ago when I encounter others.
The fierce gunfire not far away made the advancing Qiao Yan team finally breathe a sigh of relief, and finally met their own people, "Listen to the gunshots, the friendly troops should be in a lot of trouble, I'll take a few people over to take a look." A senior soldier beside Qiao Yan took the initiative to ask.
A few minutes later, the senior soldier trotted back and reported: "Sir, the friendly troops are in a lot of trouble, they are surrounded inside, and according to observation, many of them have been wounded. ”
After listening to the report, Qiao Yan thought for a while and ordered: "Everyone will attack from the flanks to support friendly forces, and it is up to you whether we can spend the night here tonight." (To be continued......)
