Chapter 490: The Outpost in the Night
The city of Mérida is an open city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The city can't afford not to be 'open', because the economy is sparse, the level of construction is not high, and the city is full of all kinds of low houses facing the street. As the number of residents increases, the intricate streets and alleys continue to expand outwards like illegal buildings.
This situation is a common urban problem in Central and South American countries, and as a result, roads can be found to enter the city from any direction, and it is difficult to restrict the entry and exit of people by blocking the main roads of the city.
Under Lula's management, the Mexican security forces set up sentry posts around the city and accompanied by armed Enclave men on patrols in vehicles to restrict the movement of people. However, this simple approach has a lot of loopholes.
At this moment, on the 180th Ring Road in the city of Mérida, a ten-man Mexican infantry squad is standing guard at a sentry post. Because it was cold, no one wanted to stay outside to blow the wind, so they moved the sentry that had been stuck in the middle of the road to the side of the road, and everyone occupied a house as a sentry post.
On a night when the cold wind is raging, the sentry's job is to look out through the glass window, but in fact it is pitch black outside, and nothing can be seen without night vision equipment.
The house was bustling, a light boiler was steaming, and ten Mexican soldiers were lying or sitting around the boiler playing cards and chatting. They used to talk about women, but now they're talking about food.
"I heard that the soldiers of the Governor's Guard were fed, and those guys were really lucky."
"I heard from the officers that Governor Alfonso must have taken refuge in the 'Aurora Legion', and the 'Aurora Legion' got him a large amount of supplies."
"I don't care who the Governor goes to, I just want to know who can benefit us?"
"I heard that the gendarmerie are engaged in the black market, and those guys have been catching material thieves, but they themselves are the biggest thieves."
In small talk, only one soldier sat by the window and stared out. But the soldiers who were actually on guard also joined the discussion, chatting about where they could get some food. Eating, eating, eating, chatting too much, everyone felt hungry and sour.
At that moment, a slight tremor first came from the ground, followed by a buzzing sound from far and near. The Mexican soldiers who had been playing cards stopped their hands, and everyone turned their heads to look out the window.
"The Enclave patrol is coming?"
"The patrol didn't make such a big move."
"Is it the wind?"
"Have you ever seen the wind that makes the ground shake?"
In the midst of many suspicions, the strange noise grew louder and closer. The Mexican soldiers finally confirmed that a convoy was coming towards them, but instead of immediately firing their guns and warning their superiors, the Mexican soldiers retreated.
The roar grew louder and louder, and the Mexican soldiers' minds could not suppress the scene of a car rushing towards them irresistibly.
"Hell, what the hell is going on out there?"
"Shouldn't we get out of here?"
"Is someone going to attack us? I don't want to fight. ”
The soldiers screamed in terror as they moved away from the wall near the side of the road, and ducked towards the other end of the room. And this judgment was correct, when the roar reached the extreme, and with a bang, a six-wheeled 'Bobcat' armored car crashed in from the outside.
The thin walls could not withstand the impact of the heavy armored vehicle's eight-ton hull, and the fragments of wall bricks and door frames turned into flying projectiles, smashing the heads of Mexican soldiers who could not dodge and screaming.
The kerosene lamp hanging in the house went out on the spot, and the whole environment was dark, and the rumbling engine sound added a bit of horror.
"We surrender, surrender! Don't fire, we all surrender! The Mexican soldiers at the entire outpost shouted in a chaotic and tragic voice, like animals about to be slaughtered.
The lights of the 'Lynx' armored car suddenly turned on, and the surviving Mexican soldiers could not open their eyes under the strong light. What frightened them the most was that a thick barreled cannon suddenly appeared from the rubble, which was the 90-millimeter anti-tank gun carried on the 'Lynx'.
Behind the lynx, more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers appeared, wearing black hoods, rifles, and night vision devices, and at first glance they looked like elites who could not be provoked. The leading attacker arrested all the personnel on the entire outpost, and after a brief interrogation, reported to the rear: "Point 1 is safe, the road is clear, and you can move." ”
The Lynx armoured vehicle slowly retreated from the rubble of the house it had built, and ten Mexican soldiers were tied up and carried out. They were all shocked by this sudden attack, and they could only watch as the road that was supposed to be set up was roaring past one armed chariot after another.
"Is there going to be a war?" Someone asked, weepingly, "Are we going to be put to death?" ”
In Mexico, it is not new that uniformed personnel are often caught and executed by armed drug traffickers. But the situation is even more bizarre, and it looks like a large-scale battle is about to take place.
Seeing an attacker walking towards him, the Mexican squad leader suddenly had a thrill in his heart and shouted heartbreakingly: "We are loyal to Governor Alfonso, and we welcome the 'Aurora Legion' to liberate Mexico." We've all surrendered, we can be guides, we know where the camp for the 'Enclave' is? ”
As soon as he shouted, the rest of the Mexican soldiers shouted for some reason, crying and begging one by one, and they were very excited to welcome Wang Shi. Instead, the attackers who guarded them exchanged views in private.
"What are these guys shouting?"
"I don't know, I don't know Spanish."
"It seems that they know that they are going to surrender, the Mexicans have too poor will to fight, and they should lead the way properly."
The attackers did not embarrass the Mexicans, waiting for the entire assault convoy to pass the junction, then they destroyed the communication stations at the post and took some of their weapons before withdrawing. Only ten Mexican soldiers were left to blow the wind in the dark of the cold night.
Finally recovering a life, ten Mexicans found themselves drenched in sweat, blown by the cold wind and almost frozen to death. It took a lot of effort for them to break free from their shackles, and they trembled and looked for clothes to change.
When they were catching their breath, the Mexican soldiers lit a few torches to light up the outpost house. Everyone was stunned, like a big dream, and they were in a trance.
"I swear to God, that unit just now is definitely the people of the 'Aurora Legion'."
"Shall we report to the Chief?"
"The last time the port was attacked, the executioner Lula was executed by all the Mexicans who were captured. The Enclave will definitely suffer a lot of damage this time, and we will die even if we report it. ”
"So what do we do?"
"It's over, we really have no way out."
Ten Mexicans, feeling that the future was bleak, stood in the rubble and wept bitterly. After a long while, someone suggested that we should go to the 'Aurora Army'? (To be continued.) )
