Chapter 162: Here They Come! (4/5)
The supreme commander of the fleet silently pondered alone, not saying a word.
Tomahawks will definitely not work, as long as Tomahawks enter the coverage radius of the opponent's air defense system, the opponent will definitely react immediately.
It doesn't take too long to react, and even less than a minute can disperse and move away from the convoy, and the Tomahawk flies from the Gulf of Guinea, a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers, which is really not a short time, which can give the other side enough time to react.
Not to mention anything else, this account is not cost-effective, if a Tomahawk missile worth 1 million US dollars only knocks out a transport vehicle of about 12~150,000 US dollars, it is simply a blood loss to the rhythm of grandma's house.
Of course, Eagle Sauce has not done more excessive things, and he has done a lot of things to blow up the rough house with rocket artillery.
"Immediately call Lieutenant Colonel Sean in Lubumbashi and tell them that there is a light ground unit of Tianqing International that is rushing over, immediately prepare a defensive posture, do not rashly take the initiative to counterattack, only passively counterattack, if they move first, immediately counterattack with the most fierce fire counterattack and call for air support!" The commander finished thinking and immediately gave the latest order.
The main reason is that the other party is not a rabble, and it really has to be hard steel head-on, in fact, Eagle Sauce is not very willing to see the situation happen, so he is surprisingly restrained.
After all, it was an "old friend" who had made them suffer many losses in history.
Well, to put it bluntly, it's a bit of a hypothesis, and maybe it's not impossible that all the hundreds of people sent to Lubumbashi have confessed.
You must know that the equipment was so poor back then, it was so perverted, not to mention that now it has also embarked on the road of no return to krypton.
Tianqing International's security employees are not only equipped with advanced mechanical exoskeletons that even the U.S. military does not have, but also have air defense systems, as well as good air support......
……
The second largest city in the region, Lubumbashi.
Two hours ago, Eagle Sauce had already put in an airborne motorized infantry battalion, and the city was actually under control within half an hour, but the life of the locals was still the same, and the soldiers had to take care of the days when they came, and the road was still full of traffic, but there were more Eagle Sauce's soldiers and military vehicles on the road, and roadblocks and blockades were also built at major points in the city.
At a temporary command post in Lubumbashi City, a signal soldier reported: "Sir, the latest news from the headquarters, Tianqing International has brought three mechanical exoskeleton infantry companies to our side, and the estimated arrival time is 2 hours and 48 minutes later, the command center requires our department to immediately alert and quickly strengthen the defensive deployment, prohibit active attacks before the other party's intentions are unknown, and air support is on call at any time......"
Upon learning of the latest directives from headquarters, Lieutenant Colonel Sean Patterson immediately readjusted Lubumbashi's deployment, mobilizing some of the troops in the city center to major points and strengthening the fortifications.
The size of the airborne infantry battalion in Lubumbashi reached 701 men, and its combat composition consisted of a battalion headquarters and battalion headquarters company, three air (airborne assault) motorized infantry companies, and an anti-tank company. The battalion headquarters and battalion headquarters company composition is slightly similar to that of a heavy company, and the anti-tank company consists of five anti-tank platoons, each consisting of two sub-platoons.
The airmobile infantry company consists of three infantry platoons, anti-tank platoons and mortar platoons directly under the company's headquarters, and is equipped with 6 60mm mortars, 103 40mm grenade launchers, 15 12.7mm machine guns, 42 7.62mm machine guns, 557 M16A1 rifles, 205 pistols, and 145 vehicles of various types.
It is no exaggeration to say that the firepower of this motorized infantry battalion airborne by Eagle Sauce here in Lubumbashi is powerless against any local force, even if it does not call for air support.
There is only one exception, and that is the security armament of Tianqing International.
Thinking about it the other way, the pertinence of Eagle Sauce is also obvious.
Of course, as long as Eagle Sauce's "Ma Run" hears the sound of artillery, even if there is only an RPG on the opposite side, he will immediately yell at the communicator: the other side has weapons of mass destruction, call for air support!!
……
Time passed by bit by bit, about 2 hours and 40 minutes, and the west defense of the city.
In a bunker made of sandbags at the entrance, two Eagle Sauce GIs lit a cigarette with each other, and one of them, a 24-year-old GI, looked at the bunker next to him, the battlefield environment kept him in a tense state, and after a while, he couldn't help but say to his teammates next to him: "Thomson, I don't think this broken bunker fortification can do much work." ”
"This is psychological comfort, you know, if you encounter an anti-materiel weapon, Biu~~ easily passes through these bunkers, unfortunately hits, and it is lucky to leave a whole corpse."
“……”
"Well, I heard that the enemy this time is a perverted opponent equipped with exoskeleton + HUD tactical eyepiece equipment, this kind of self-aiming, damn it, honestly Thomson, I'm a little uneasy now, I'd rather go to Syria and Irak to lead the charge than face them."
"Who wants to face them?"
"Hey man, aren't you two too pessimistic? We have more than 700 people, and they have less than 400 people. ”
"But they have a self-aiming system, the kind that hits every shot!"
“……”
"Well, we're not weak either, we have air support, ready to scrub the floor at any moment."
At this moment, as soon as the words fell, a roar came from above the sky, causing Thomson and the others to look up to the sky.
"Haha, our fighter planes are ready to hit at any time, and the invincible firepower of the United States has always ruled the blue sky of this planet!"
"That's the other party's Chada integrated drone, and it was already in the air at high altitude two and a half hours ago, you idiot and idiot."
"Oh, Shet!"
With a curse, Toms looked up at the sky and tried to find the drone's shadow, but there was no shadow in the cloudy sky, and it wasn't long before the drone's roar died down.
A dazzling flash of lightning erupted from the dark clouds above the sky, and a deafening thunderclap followed, and Thomson knew that the other party's drone had probably climbed above the clouds, or left.
Soon the rain poured down, and four hours before it had already rained heavily, as it was during the rainy season.
Thomson hates being in the tropics, and hates fighting in the tropics even more.
The original scene of traffic in the city of Lubumbashi soon disappeared, people took shelter from the rain, and the cars on the roads became more and more numerous, but the eagle sauce soldiers who were guarding several important points of the city remained the same.
Thomson flicked away the half-soaked cigarette in his hand, and he couldn't help but poke his head out and look west, where visibility was not good in the storm.
"Huh?" Thomson polished his eyes, and couldn't help but prop up his main weapon on the bunker fortifications, and aim forward, his weapon was equipped with a set of optical sights at his own expense, this thing is the most expensive thing in the whole body, and equipping some auxiliary equipment at his own expense is the most common thing here in the Eagle Sauce Soldier.
Thomson further gained a better view through the scope, and when he saw the shadow of a vehicle in the rain, his heart jumped and he instantly shouted, "Here they are!" They're coming!! ”
