Chapter 42 Favorable Terrain
As soon as the commander lowered his head, the bullet hit his helmet, and he felt that the helmet was violently hit by the bullet, driving the entire head backwards, and the cervical vertebrae behind it were almost torn off at this moment.
The bullet fired from the 7.62mm SVD rifle was stuck in the helmet and did not get into his head.
"Dodge!" He shouted loudly, at this time, it was too late to retreat, the terrain here was very empty, completely exposed to the top of the opposite mountain, and the other party wanted to shoot his own side, it was very easy.
Damn, that helmet is weird! Mhammad watched as the bullet fired by Khwaja hit the other party, but was blocked by the opponent's helmet, you know, this is a 7.62mm sniper bullet! Even in later generations, advanced aramid helmets can only block 7.62 mm ordinary rifle bullets, but can't block sniper bullets, and the steel helmets of this era can only block bomb fragments, not direct bullets.
What kind of helmet is the other person using? Wait for the battle to end, be sure to take a look! Thinking so, Mahmad gave the order: "Fire!" ”
Several PPK light machine guns, pouring fire on the opposite side, among a few bullets, mixed with tracer bullets, you can see the bullets flying by, and several Soviet soldiers on the opposite side, who had no time to dodge, were immediately hit.
The view is wide, you can fire at will, did the Soviets really not study the terrain here before coming? This is the grave for them!
Mhammad watched the bullets fly by, watched several Soviet soldiers fall to the ground, and watched their machine gunners, half-crouched on the ground, with machine guns in hand, and began to shoot in this direction.
Stupid, this is all death-seeking!
Khvaja had just fired no headshot, and was very puzzled, and now, seeing that the machine gunner on the opposite side began to shoot with a gun, he unceremoniously continued to snipe, this time aiming at the opponent's chest, a bullet passed, and flew into the body of the Soviet soldier on the opposite side, so the soldier's body pounced forward, and the machine gun fell to the ground.
The Soviet commander's face was as gray as ashes, his own machine guns could not suppress the other side at all, and it was only a matter of time before he looked at the firepower pouring from the top of the hill and destroyed his own side.
It's bare everywhere, there's no way to hide, and now the only option is to...
"Retreat to the cave!" The Soviet commander shouted.
Just now, the donkeys were frightened, and the Soviet commander clearly saw that a donkey panicked and rushed into the cave without stepping on the bomb.
There are certainly not many mines buried at the entrance of the cave, and there is a passage in the middle! Just follow the donkey's footprints and you will enter the cave!
If you enter the cave, you can also rely on the cover of the cave to hold on for a while, otherwise, it is only a matter of time before your own soldiers are eliminated.
A mistaken piece of information led to the destruction of his own squad, and the commander was eager to strangle the person who passed on the information to them.
The fire was so heavy that almost instantly, most of their men were lost, and the commander had to give up his plan to rescue the wounded outside, and retreat in the direction of the cave with the remaining men.
When successfully entering the cave, the commander took a few breaths, during the battle, they did not once leave their wounded, but this time, he could hear the ** outside.
As long as you are not shot in a key position, you will not die immediately, and the injury is more terrible than death, and when you watch the blood continue to flow out, when you feel the temperature of your body continue to drop, you will be occupied by great fear.
A Soviet soldier watched his intestines run to the ground, a bullet opened a hole in his lower abdomen, and he tried to stuff those intestines back in, but, just stuffed in, came out again, his hands were covered with blood, trembling, and he tried to stuff them back again.
When he finally found that the intestines could no longer be stuffed back, he stopped trying, his hands trembled, and he let it go, step by step, trying to go to the cave, but the intestines were pulled far behind him, and the blood pooled into a stream.
After walking a dozen steps, his body slowly fell.
The Soviets in the cave, watching their comrades fall like this, but could not do anything, they clenched their fists and red eyes.
"Call the hind." The commander of the SP special forces said: "Let the hind bombard the opposite hill!" ”
They did not carry heavy weapons, due to the terrain restrictions, they were forced to enter this cave, as long as they went out, they would be easily killed by the opposite shooter on the uncovered hillside, and the only hope was the rescue of the hind.
"Yes." A soldier took out a hand-held radio terminal and kept calling, but unfortunately, there was no response.
The terrain is complex, and the terminal power of this handheld is insufficient, and there is only a signal on the top of the mountain.
"Second Lieutenant Mhammad, lighting the fire now is just enough to kill all the Soviets inside." By Mhammad's side, James kindly offered him a pleasant advice.
This ambush was fought so brilliantly, especially the control of the terrain, Mhammad used it too well, originally, James's idea was to stay in the cave and arrange layers of defense, and the Soviets would have to pay the price for attacking from the bottom of the hill.
But Mhammad did not do this, he withdrew all the people, leaving only the donkeys as bait to lure the Soviets to attack, and when the Soviets climbed the hill, he exposed all their backs to their sight, which was simply a live target.
Now, the Soviets were suppressed and had no choice but to bury the cave, in addition to burying the jumping mine at the mouth of the cave, they also placed a sufficient number of C4 in the hidden part of the top of the cave, which was detonated by remote control, as long as the button was pressed here, the entrance of the cave would be blown up, and all the people inside would be buried alive.
This is a war genius! James also admires Mhammad very much. Withdrawing from the cave, they completely seized the initiative, and now, the complete destruction of the Soviets, it is only a matter of pressing the button.
"Nope." Mhammad said: "Stop shooting, wait, after a while, there will be a guy who is not afraid of death, climb out and climb to the top of the mountain, and when the time comes, we will detonate it again." ”
Will a guy climb out on the other side? Climb to the top of the mountain? James didn't believe it: "Second Lieutenant Mhammad, how do you know?" ”
Instead of speaking, Mhammad slowly pulled out a Pamir cigarette, lay on the other side of the hillside, slowly lit it, and smoked it.
How natural is this expression, how natural is it, James looked at Mhammad, as if he had just asked a very idiotic question?
The east began to turn slightly white, and the sky soon dawned.
"It's out, there's a guy who's not afraid of death coming out." At this moment, a partisan shouted in a low voice.
Came out? James couldn't believe his eyes, he slowly climbed out, and saw the mouth of the cave opposite, a Soviet soldier crawling out of it, and then, violently running up the hill, shuttling back and forth left and right, taking the route of avoiding bullets.
What is he going to do? How is it that only one guy escaped? James still didn't understand, and kept seeing the other party run to the top of the hill and pull out a long thing that shone with a metallic sheen.
Radio antennas? The other party is calling for reinforcements!
"Snipe him!" James said.
As if he knew that someone was going to snipe him, he continued to run while calling by radio.
No one listened to James's orders, and Hevaja, who was holding a sniper rifle, was aiming with a sniper rifle all the time, looking for the other party's movement patterns, but he didn't pull the trigger.
After waiting for five or six seconds, Mahmad said, "Snipe him!" Blow up the hole! ”
"Dah." A bullet, out of Hewaja's SVD sniper rifle, flew towards the top of the opposite hill as Durrani pressed the button.
"Boom!" At the mouth of the cave, there was a violent explosion, and several Soviet soldiers who had been aiming at the top of the opposite hill at the mouth of the cave were instantly torn apart in the explosion, and then, countless stones on it fell down, smashing their bodies into meat pies.
The entire entrance to the cave was sealed with stones.
The Soviet soldier at the top of the mountain, feeling the tremor under his feet, was immediately keenly aware of something, and just as he was about to turn to the back of the mountain, he heard the sound of a bullet cutting through the air, and then his chest shook.
A 7.62 mm bullet entered his chest, and when it entered the soft body, the projectile began to roll inside the body, constantly stirring more flesh, and then the flesh on his back exploded, and a bowl-sized hole appeared.
Blood gushed out of the hole, and his body fell, and in his hand, he was still holding a radio, and the pilot's echo came from the headset: "Roger, arrive in ten minutes." ”
"Clean up the battlefield." Mhammad said, dropping his cigarette butt and, armed with an AKM rifle, rushed towards the opposite side.
The weapons of the Soviets, Mhammad was not interested, and the number of the SP troops, Mhammad was not interested, he was the first to rush over, ran to the body of the first fallen Soviets, took off the helmet of the other party.
The outside was camouflage, and when the camouflage cloth was removed, Mhammad was amazed when he saw the metallic luster inside.
Damn, isn't this a titanium helmet? The awesome Soviets, it turned out that at this time, they had already adopted titanium helmets!
Titanium is an excellent metal, low density, light weight, similar to aluminum, but high strength, good rigidity, high temperature resistance, after the fifties, began to be widely used, in aero engines and other components, the proportion gradually increased.
However, the refining of titanium is not easy, very valuable, only the Soviet Union, the titanium alloy is used in large quantities, such as the manufacture of nuclear submarine shells, so that the depth of the nuclear submarine reaches thousands of meters, and for example, the use of titanium alloy to make helmets, no country is willing to use this, and the United States, which has deep pockets, is no exception.
This titanium alloy helmet costs tens of thousands of rubles, and those who can use this helmet are definitely the elite special forces of the Soviets. "Take these helmets off." Mhammad shouted.
At the critical moment, this thing can save lives, Mhammad unceremoniously took off the towel on his head and put the helmet on his head, no, it was a little big, and he had to adjust the bandage inside.
