Chapter 714: Siege the corpse and send reinforcements
In Area 385, a Chinook transport plane of the US mountain unit was shot down, and the people who were ambushed on the top of the mountain were also retaliated by two US helicopter gunships, and the dense rocket bombardment destroyed many areas on the top of the mountain.
However, just when the two helicopter gunships thought they had eliminated the threat from above, four or five anti-aircraft missiles rushed out from the 385 heights and headed towards the two Apache helicopter gunships.
The attack came very suddenly, and it was very dangerous.
The two Apache gunships made evasive moves as soon as the alarm sounded, and at the same time, a large number of decoy bombs were released.
Unfortunately, the two Apache helicopters that released the decoy bombs only avoided two of the missiles, and three missiles did not dodge in time.
Under the exclamation of many US soldiers on the ground, the two Apache helicopter gunships were directly hit by the anti-aircraft missiles, and the flames of the explosion completely destroyed the two Apaches, and the burning wreckage of the planes fell from the sky and crashed on the hillside, with thick smoke billowing out.
In just a few minutes, three helicopters were killed, and another Chinook helicopter in the distance was frightened and hurriedly evacuated from the mountainous area.
It also made the atmosphere in the headquarters of the mountain battalion under the mountain suddenly depressed, and no one thought that the enemy who was surrounded in the mountains would have such a stubborn means of resistance.
"Call the howitzer battalion immediately and carry out shelling of the threatened area." Inside the camp, a lieutenant colonel of the U.S. Mountain Battalion, who was in charge of the command, decisively ordered.
On an artillery position more than a dozen kilometers away from this area, a battalion of howitzers of the Marine Corps deployed here immediately began to correct the coordinates of the shelling.
Modern artillery, both for shooting and aiming, was quite efficient, and soon the mountain divisions were supported by artillery fire.
The modern 155 mm howitzer with huge destructive power fell on the 385 heights, instantly plunging the entire highlands into a sea of fire, the tall trees were broken in the explosion, a large number of rubble collapsed, and the rocks were mixed, and the entire highland shook like an earthquake.
The intense fire lasted for five minutes, and the entire summit could hardly be seen in its original appearance, the broken trees were burning after the shelling, and a large amount of debris was splashed down the mountain.
Located in a cave under the height of 385, a large number of desert clusters on the top of the cave fell, and the whole cave was shaking, if it had not been deeply reinforced, and because the cave was located in the belly of the mountain, it did not directly bear the power of the cannonballs, otherwise the cave would have collapsed.
At this moment, there were only five or six people in the cave, who didn't care at all about the shaking cave, and kept their eyes on the monitors in front of them.
In this mountainous area, the Red Guard Corps has been arranged for three whole days, and here, there are also a large number of remote-controlled weapons and equipment, each of which has been designed.
At the moment, on one of these people's monitors, exactly the pendant is displayed. The place where the Chinook fell.
Don't think it's just a monitor screen, it's a sniper rifle scope that connects to the monitor.
The sniper rifle was arranged in a camouflage stone in the middle of the mountainside, it was a very inconspicuous stone, no different from a normal stone, but the inside of this stone had already been hollowed out, and inside was a modified sniper rifle, which was controlled by an aiming sensor disguised as a stone on the outside of the stone.
The aiming sensor can quickly aim at targets thousands of kilometers away, capture all living objects in motion, and can automatically control the muzzle according to the automatic aiming system, with infrared and weak laser triple aiming capabilities.
Fall. The Chinook transport plane that fell, five or six hundred meters from the sniper rifle, was located at the bottom of the valley.
On the monitor inside the cave, several wounded American soldiers can be seen, struggling to climb out of the Chinook transport plane.
And at the entrance to the valley tens of meters, rescue soldiers of the mountain division have already arrived.
Found the crash site, rescue was also in a hurry, one of the American soldiers quickly ran towards the crash site, but just as he was about to approach the crash site, a bullet silently penetrated his big . Leg.
The American soldier who was running continued to advance two steps before falling to the ground, and the bullet penetrated his large . The legs even penetrated his big. The arteries of the legs, I saw a large amount of blood spurting out of the wound, and in a moment's effort, the entire trouser leg was stained red.
"Ahh The painful nerves made the American soldier wail on the ground with his injured leg in his arms, and also made the other nine American soldiers who followed behind him dodge one by one.
"There are snipers." A sergeant squad leader in charge of the command looked at his wailing subordinates three or four meters in front of him, and ordered: "Don't approach easily. ”
Iraqi snipers have long been synonymous with fear for many US soldiers, and even the mountain divisions that are carrying out combat missions in Iraq for the first time are also familiar with Iraqi snipers.
Seeing that the comrades-in-arms who were walking in front were knocked down by the Iraqi snipers with a single shot, no one dared to act rashly.
The soldiers of the mountain division all hid their bodies behind rocks to avoid the aim of the opposing snipers.
But the comrades in front of them, as well as the helicopter not far away, urgently need their help.
"Smoke grenade cover." The sergeant of the Mountain Division observed the situation and gave a decisive order.
In the middle of the team, two smoke grenades were thrown next to the wounded American soldiers, and a large amount of smoke filled the valley, and soon they were out of sight.
"Come on, save people first." With a wave of his hand, the sergeant took the two soldiers beside him and ran towards his comrades in front.
However, just as he was about to approach the wounded American soldier, a bullet pierced through the layers of smoke and instantly penetrated the sergeant's big . Leg.
The two bullets that followed directly killed the two American soldiers who were following the sergeant.
"Damn bastards, dogs. Mother's. Son, besiege the corpse to help, damn it, damn it. The sergeant covered his wounded big . legs, while enduring severe pain, crawled towards the wounded soldier on the side.
As for the two men who fell beside him, their heads were pierced by bullets, and he could not come back to life.
The first wounded American soldier, hearing the sergeant's voice, also struggled to crawl towards the other side.
"There's a rock in the direction of nine o'clock, and we have to take refuge behind it." The sergeant, who crawled over, yelled at the wounded soldier.
By the time the smoke bomb was released, the sergeant had already memorized the surrounding terrain.
