Chapter 299 337 People's War 6

The Salvation Army soldiers who were pressed and rubbed at the ambush point were extremely desperate at this time, although their numbers and equipment were more than a little better than those of the Workers' and Peasants' Guards, they were still pressed and beaten.

The Seventh Company, which had just been suppressed by them, had already shifted its position, and they rode nimbly on mountain bikes on the boundaries of their usual work, using the Type 53 rifles and 56 in their hands to attack the Salvation Army by half-surprise.

The problem that the Salvation Army is facing now is that it is really difficult to compliment small-caliber bullets hitting targets at 300 meters, especially when there is no optical sight, and it is a nightmare experience in the face of the Makqin machine gun that fires 7.62*54mm bullets from the Workers' and Peasants' Guards.

The improvised telescope mounted on the Maxim machine gun does not provide accurate fire instructions, but it allows the heavy to clearly see where the tracer bullet lands, and it only takes a few seconds to deliver the bullet to the place where he wants to strike.

The two mechanized infantry companies of the Salvation Army were also caught in the flanking attack, and when they drove into the blocking positions of the 2nd, 3rd, 1st, and 6th squads, two explosions were heard, and the two companies were blocked on the highway.

Surprisingly, the blasting in the rear did not block the road, and the Salvation Army troops immediately turned around and tried to leave the valley.

When Cui Gensheng learned that there was a problem with the reinforcements after the blockade, he immediately took a look at the Salvation Army, which had basically been cleaned up, and immediately decisively ordered to block the withdrawal path of the reinforcements of the Salvation Army.

The four squads that received the order immediately opened fire, one squad attached to each squad used machine guns to fire wildly at the Salvation Army troop trucks, and the Workers' and Peasants' Guards soldiers armed with Type 53 rifles opened fire on the Salvation Army trucks from a position of 500 meters, and when they entered 400 meters, the squad immediately opened fire with machine guns.

While the Salvation Army was now under heavy fire, the sixth squad made a detour along the path back to the position of the first squad.

The sixth squad was responsible for fire support, and although they did not have the same good marksmanship as the people in the third platoon, they were armed with three tricycle Maxim machine guns! And there is also a small "revival" rocket launcher mounted on top of a pickup truck!

This "revival" rocket is the crystallization of the wisdom of the people of the war-torn countries in the Middle East! Its prototype is the famous "Kassan" rocket!

It's easy to produce and it's very low-cost! Rocket propellant is fertilizer plus sugar! These 100mm caliber rockets can carry a 5kg explosive warhead to fly a distance of 5km, and the rate of fire again will only take a minute!

And the Salvation Army's motorized infantry company in the chaos had a good experience of the thrill of washing its hair with 24 rockets! Moreover, the strafing of the Maxim heavy machine gun almost drove these unprotected infantry into despair.

Just when the Workers' and Peasants' Guards were abusing the Salvation Army troops, Cui Gensheng gave the order to retreat, and the soldiers of the Workers' and Peasants' Guards immediately withdrew without the slightest hesitation.

According to the experience of the front-line troops, it only takes fifteen minutes for the Salvation Army's front-line support attack aircraft to be in place, and then it will be no less than a massacre for the Workers' and Peasants' Guards!

In just 10 minutes, the supposedly elite troops of the Salvation Army on the southern front were beaten and discarded their armor, the armored mixed company was completely annihilated, and nearly 250 infantry were killed, while the Workers' and Peasants' Guards only suffered 10 casualties and 15 were slightly wounded.

It seems that this kind of battle seems like a divine drama, but the fact is that for the elite troops of the Salvation Army, they emphasize large-scale group operations, and sometimes even the powerful Central Army is a little more afraid of the frontal battlefield, but they are not as experienced as those second-line troops who have been dealing with the Restoration Army for a long time.

On the other hand, it is not difficult to see that the Workers' and Peasants' Guards were familiar with the terrain, and their military training was in place, and their ambush locations were very superior, and their weapons were generally old-fashioned firearms with a range of at least 800 meters, and there were many powerful earthen weapons among them.

As the saying goes: "It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, it's a good cat to catch a mouse!" ”

It's such an inconspicuous weapon, but it fought an almost perfect ambush battle, sometimes it's not backward or weak, and it's the same reason that Mao Ziak couldn't beat the Enfield rifle of the AFH people back then! Only whether it can be used or not, there is no reason why it is easy to use or not!

Although the Salvation Army is very difficult to understand how the Workers' and Peasants' Guards can suppress them with these old guns that are nearly 70-90 years ago, or even longer, but after thinking about it, from 1900 to the present, as long as there is no laser gun with a range of thousands of meters in the hands of a single soldier, as long as it is a chemical firearm, there is no lag behind, just like AK can fight for another hundred years, why can't the Type 53 rifle be allowed to ... What about another 100 years of fighting?

In this mountainous belt, the Salvation Army has suffered an unprecedented blow. The seemingly formidable tens of thousands of troops were forced to disperse due to the terrain, and it was this decision that made it difficult for these main forces of the Salvation Army, accustomed to assaulting on the large front, to go further with heavy equipment.

After the first day of the offensive was frustrated, the main force of the Salvation Army decided to wait for the second group of troops to be in position before attacking, and this time it would be mainly the towns of the Restoration Army on the front line.

During the long battle between the Salvation Army and the Central Army, their commanders agreed that the capture of these towns of the Salvation Army would be the key to the success of the campaign, after all, the capture of the towns would greatly reduce the ability of the guerrillas to move and supply, but the Salvation Army would not let the Salvation Army succeed.

As an important transportation point in the war zone, TG City has been completely abandoned, and the residents of the city have faithfully fulfilled Liu Qi's "scorched earth" policy, and the entire city has basically been emptied, and even the walls built by the city to defend against the wandering zombie hordes have been blown out of more than a dozen huge openings.

On the cracked and pothole-ridden highway around TG City, two Restoration Army scouts drove a rusty homemade car across the road.

The young soldier sitting in the back seat of the car looked at the large number of zombies pressed by the black pressure more than 200 meters behind the vehicle, and with a trace of regret on his face, he used his bayonet to cut a small hole in the bag of artificial fake blood in his hand.

Black-red fake blood spilled on the ground with a strange and pungent smell of blood, and the soldier in the back seat fixed the blood bag on the frame, he turned his head to look at TG City in the distance, where the lights were gradually fading, and let out a long sigh, his eyes full of regret and melancholy.

The veteran sitting in the driver's seat seemed to sense the depression of the young man behind him, and he freed his left hand and pulled out a small white paper bag from his pocket.

He shook the small paper bag, revealing a somewhat rough cigarette in his mouth, and then handed the paper bag to the young man in the back seat.
