Chapter 767: The street battle has just begun
The Huaxing Club in Laoag City and the Chinese youth who joined the resistance to the Philippine government army suffered very large losses in another air raid by the Philippine Air Force, but there is no way, the Philippine Air Force has a large number of third-generation fighters, and the shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles that Huaxing will have can sneak attack one in the first air raid, which is already a big **** luck, and the Philippine Air Force has prepared 13 third-generation fighters in the face of the second air raid. These shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles are no longer useful.
Moreover, even those elite gangs of the Huaxing Association who have been trained by mercenaries have not had the opportunity to operate shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles before, and they can shoot down 1 fighter of the Philippine Air Force and 2 armed helicopters of the 7th Division, which is really not easy, and there is no way to ask them to be higher.
The third generation fighter is a modern time and space after the sixties of the last century after the world's various powers have been equipped with fighter jets, which is characterized by high flexibility at medium and low altitudes, equipped with advanced radar equipment, strengthening the application of missiles and other characteristics, the development of the first two generations of fighters, single-purpose combat interceptors and fighter-bombers have stopped here, benefiting from the progress of various systems, especially the function and efficiency of radar and avionics, so that the third generation of fighters began to tend to multi-task, multi-purpose route, It can completely replace the combat missions of second-generation fighter-interceptors and fighter-bombers.
If Huaxing wants to really pose a threat to the third-generation fighters of the Philippine Air Force, in addition to having the same third-generation fighters, it can only shoot down high-altitude third-generation fighters by equipping them with surface-to-air tactical missiles that need to be launched from missile vehicles. I sighed with joy.
Thirteen third-generation fighter jets of the Philippine Air Force withdrew from the city of Laoag after running out of missiles and cluster bombs. The Huaxing armed gang guarding the city knew that they would meet the attack of the Philippine Army next. Many of the Huaxing congregations who had escaped the bombing entered the buildings that had been blown into ruins, preparing to use the ruins to resist the attack of the Philippine government forces.
Although at least a quarter of the buildings in the city of Laoag were destroyed or half collapsed in the bombing, Michael, the commander of the 7th Division of the Philippine Army outside the city of Laoag, did not look relaxed at all, but had a painful expression on his face.
Because it was not expected that Huaxing would have a large number of large-caliber artillery, not only was the heavy artillery battalion of the 7th Division of the Philippine Army wiped out, losing 32 howitzers with a caliber of 105 mm, and nearly 500 Filipino officers and soldiers of the heavy artillery battalion were also killed, and the 1st Brigade of the 7th Division also suffered heavy losses under the blow of the large-caliber artillery group of Huaxinghui. According to a rough calculation, the 1st Brigade, which was originally intended to be the main attack force, had not yet launched a ground attack on the city of Laoag, more than 600 people had been killed and more than 300 injured, which was equivalent to nearly one-third of the casualties, which made the morale of the remaining officers and soldiers of the 1st Brigade in the Philippines very low, and Michael had to consider letting the 1st Brigade abandon the operational plan of attacking Laoag as the main force.
During the Philippine Air Force's second air raid on the city of Laoag just now, Sergio, chief of the general staff of the Philippine Navy, Army, and Air Force, personally called Michael Ear. This meant that Michael Richard's 7th Division, after the Air Force's successful air raid on the Huaxinghui in the city of Laoag, immediately sent ground troops into the city of Laoag to carry out a clearance operation, as for the heavy artillery battalion requested by Michael. It is not possible to reach the city of Laoag quickly, but Chief of General Staff Sergio promised that the Philippine Air Force would always provide air fire support to the 7th Division.
The Chief of the General Staff, Sergio, told Michael unequivocally. Now the eyes of the whole world have been attracted by two things. One is the current confrontation between the US Navy and the Chinese Navy in the South China Sea, and the other is the encirclement and suppression of Chinese terrorist organizations in Laoag City by the Philippine government forces. If the Philippine army cannot eliminate the Huaxing militia in the city of Laoag as soon as possible, then the entire Philippine government will become the laughing stock of the world.
After all, everyone knows what is going on with the Huaxing Society, which is defined as a terrorist organization by the Philippine government, and if the Philippine army cannot eliminate its main force in a short period of time with even a small gang, it will really make the Philippines, which is known as a regional power, a little unbearable.
The commander of the 7th Division, Michael, brought the commander of the 1st Brigade, Enteleji, over and said helplessly: "Chief of the General Staff Sergio ordered our 7th Division to launch an attack on the city of Laoag immediately after the air raid ended, I know that the 1st Brigade has caused a lot of casualties due to the large-caliber artillery that suddenly appeared in Huaxinghui, so I consider letting the 2nd Brigade launch the main attack from the east, can the 1st Brigade still launch a diversion attack on the south of Laoag?" ”
Nteleji smiled bitterly and said: "General, you also know that our 1st Brigade and even our entire 7th Division have not experienced a real war, and they have been beaten down by the artillery fire of Huaxinghui, and the morale of the entire brigade has fallen to the bottom, and it will not be easy if it does not collapse directly, now let our 1st Brigade enter the city of Laoag, general, you don't have to report any hope." ”
Nteleji, who had a better face, then gritted his teeth and said: "But as long as the general gives the order, I will personally lead the team, and I will also take down the city of Laoag!" ”
Michael shook his head helplessly and said: "Let the 2nd Brigade enter the city from the east and north of Laoag, the east is the focus of the 2nd Brigade's attack, and your 1st Brigade only needs to transfer a small number of officers and soldiers to enter the city from the south of Laoag and put defensive pressure on Huaxing." ”
At about 3:30 p.m., the 7th Division of the Philippine Army, which surrounded the city of Laoag, finally began to send ground troops into the city of Laoag, and then a street battle that shocked the outside world started in the city of Laoag.
"Dada-da-"
"Boom-boom-"
After the ground troops of the 7th Division of the Philippine Army entered the city from three directions of Laoag, the sound of gunfire and explosions suddenly sounded in the urban area of Laoag in three directions. So the attack troops of the 7th Division of the Philippine Army in 3 directions easily entered the city. But then they were fiercely attacked by the Chinese forces.
"Brother Long! The indigenous Filipino army was coming soon, and there were 2 infantry armored vehicles in front. At least 100 people followed! "1 Huaxing will help the people report to a leader of the Huaxing Association named Brother Long.
Brother Long originally led 45 people to guard a seven-story building in the city of Rawagnan, but this seven-story building was blown up by cluster bombs during the first air raid by the Philippine Air Force, and only 16 people who guarded the building, including Brother Long himself, escaped from the collapsed building.
Long Ge then returned to the building with the remaining 15 people, preparing to use the ruins to continue to resist the attack of the Philippine government forces, but fortunately, no missiles and cluster bombs fell near the building that had become ruins during the second more intense air raid by the Philippine Air Force. Let Brother Long and other 16 people not continue to increase losses in the second wave of air raids of the Philippine Air Force, and now Brother Long still has 16 people in his hands, including himself.
When Brother Long heard that the Philippine army was about to arrive at him, he didn't say anything, waved his hand at the others, and asked all the people hiding in the ruins to prepare for battle, and Brother Long personally picked up a shoulder-fired anti-tank missile. It was on his shoulder.
Soon two infantry fighting vehicles of the Philippine army appeared in Brother Long's sight, and without the slightest hesitation, Brother Long fiercely pulled the trigger of the shoulder-fired anti-tank missile at one of the infantry fighting vehicles more than 200 meters away. He shouted loudly: "Brothers, hit hard!" ”
With a "boom-" sound, the anti-tank missile launched by Brother Long unfortunately missed the target. Hit the concrete road next to 1 infantry fighting vehicle, blowing out a small crater in the concrete road.
Then the others above the ruins of the building. Machine guns, automatic rifles and submachine guns were also used to fire heavily at the Filipino troops. In several buildings and several half-collapsed buildings next to the ruins of the building, there were also members of the Huaxing Association who opened heavy fire on the Philippine army, and even two anti-tank missiles fired at two infantry fighting vehicles of the Philippine army, but unfortunately none of them were destroyed.
This force of the Philippine army was an attack force drawn from the 1st Brigade of the 7th Division, which had been heavily damaged, and the commander of the 1st Brigade, Nteleji, only first transferred about one company of troops, with two infantry fighting vehicles, to launch a tentative attack on the south side of Laoag.
After being attacked by the Huaxing Society, the 25-mm machine guns on the two infantry fighting vehicles immediately launched a counterattack against the Huaxing Association gangs on both sides of the road, and at the same time, hundreds of Filipino officers and soldiers who followed immediately dispersed in a panic and fired at the Huaxing Society.
"Quick! Shoot! Shoot! The 1st platoon is ready to occupy the building on the right, the 2nd platoon is attacking the ruins on the left, and the 3rd platoon is covering! A Filipino officer hid behind an infantry fighting vehicle and shouted loudly to other Filipino officers and soldiers.
The Filipino officers and soldiers who entered the city of Laoag knew that they would definitely be attacked by the Huaxing members, so although they were a little panicked when they were attacked, they still attacked the buildings and collapsed ruins occupied by the Huaxing members under the organization of the officers, trying to occupy these fortifications that were used by the Huaxing members.
"It's very accurate! How did you not hit! Brother Long muttered in annoyance when he saw that the anti-tank missile he fired did not hit the infantry fighting vehicle.
The 25-mm machine guns on the two infantry fighting vehicles of the Philippine army were very powerful, and soon after the fire was fired, many members of the Huaxing Association were killed by the 25-mm machine guns.
Brother Long didn't waste time, muttered while quickly loading another anti-tank missile onto the shoulder-mounted launcher, then leaned out from behind a half-cut cement pillar, aimed at an infantry fighting vehicle and fired the anti-tank missile, and then quickly hid his body behind the cement pillar.
This time, the anti-tank missile launched by Brother Long finally did not hit the air again, directly hit the side of an infantry fighting vehicle, and penetrated the side armor of this infantry fighting vehicle, "boom-" A loud sound, the ammunition in the infantry fighting vehicle was detonated at once, the entire infantry fighting vehicle was blown apart, and several Filipino soldiers hiding behind the infantry fighting vehicle also suffered, and they were blown up in an instant, and then fell to the ground fiercely, without movement, including the Philippine officer who gave the order just now, He was also the commander of the Philippine army.
These officers and soldiers of the 1st Brigade of the 7th Division of the Philippines have not experienced the baptism of war, and they have no morale from being bombarded by large-caliber howitzers of the Huaxing Society, but not long after entering the city of Laoag, they were attacked by a large number of members of the Huaxing Association, and these members of the Huaxing Association are even equipped with anti-tank missiles.
Now the prefect who led them into the city of Laoag is dead and can't die anymore, they continue to persevere, and if they don't get to end up with this chief, then what's the hesitation, hurry up!
The destruction of 1 infantry fighting vehicle, coupled with the death of the highest commander, made this small Filipino force collapse in an instant, some
The Filipino soldiers turned around and ran in the direction of the outside of the city of Laoag, and then, like dominoes, the rest of the Philippine officers and soldiers also gave up attacking the various fortifications where the members of the Huaxing Association were located, and directly turned around and fled outside the city of Laoag, and even the remaining 1 infantry fighting vehicle quickly turned around and evacuated outside the city.
However, it was not so easy for this Philippine army to retreat, and the blockers of the Huaxing Society immediately fired a bullet at the fleeing Philippine officers and soldiers, and when this small group of tentative troops of the 1st Brigade of the 7th Division escaped outside the city of Laoag, only less than half of the officers and soldiers remained, and fortunately, the remaining infantry fighting vehicles also escaped.
Looking at the tentative troops who escaped in embarrassment, the commander of the 1st Brigade, Enteleji, was extremely angry, although the 1st Brigade suffered heavy losses because of the large-caliber artillery suddenly made out by Huaxing, almost to the point of breaking its muscles and bones, and no longer needed to take on the main task of attacking Laoag City, but Huaxinghui couldn't be so embarrassed!
Just sent 1 infantry company plus 2 infantry fighting vehicles, but in less than 10 minutes after entering the city of Laoag, it was beaten out by the armed forces of the Huaxing Society, and more than half of it was lost.
Immediately, Nteleji drew about one battalion from the 1st Brigade and five infantry fighting vehicles and once again entered the city from the south of the city of Laoag. (To be continued.) )
