Chapter 477: U.S. Forces in Mogadishu

While the Tiger Division is launching an all-out assault on Mogadishu, another battle in Mogadishu is still ongoing.

More than 100 U.S. soldiers trapped in the city of Mogadishu fought fiercely with more than 4,000 armed men using the bunkers of the building.

In order to eliminate these American soldiers, the rebels gathered a militia of more than 4,000 people and launched an all-out assault on the four buildings defended by the American army.

However, it has to be said that the quality of the US soldiers is indeed very good, and their combat quality is extremely high.

In the face of more than 40 times the enemy, the American soldiers defending the building, with their own firepower, resisted the non-stop attack of the rebels, and it has lasted for more than an hour.

For more than an hour, the U.S. soldiers repelled several charges by the rebels, with a defensive focus, and destroyed several pickup trucks loaded with heavy weapons, inflicting hundreds of casualties on the attacking rebels.

The casualties of the US soldiers themselves are less than ten, and the number of slightly injured people is only about 20.

During the fighting, a transport plane of the US army was also attacked by the top militia, and delivered weapons and ammunition to the US troops here, and finally the transport helicopter was damaged, but still successfully evacuated the battlefield.

With the replenishment of weapons and ammunition, the American soldiers in the building were able to hold out longer.

However, there are too many enemies to face, and as the battle continues, more and more wounded Americans will be unable to participate in the battle, and the result will inevitably be a gap in defense, and if they still can't get rescue in time, it is also quite dangerous.

And if the attacking rebels bring in heavy weapons, the situation can get out of control at any time.

Fortunately, the Somali rebels, as well as the tribal forces, do not have the capacity to buy heavy equipment in large quantities.

If nothing else, if there were some artillery pieces that did not require powerful howitzers, they were ordinary recoilless guns, which would put the defenses of American soldiers in jeopardy.

Therefore, the US troops in the building were naturally quite anxious, and in a relatively safe house in the building, there were still several seriously wounded US soldiers lying down, and there were two bodies of US soldiers who had been killed on the side.

The U.S. soldiers in charge of the building were commanded by a sergeant from the Ranger unit, and after an hour of fierce fighting, the militia attack outside began to wane.

He only had time to come here to check on the wounded, and the situation was not optimistic.

The three seriously wounded inside, if they could not be treated in time, would not last long, and as for the lightly wounded, after treating their wounds, they returned to their combat posts.

Now the three seriously injured are all holding a breath and using paralyzing drugs to maintain their lives.

"Sir, when will the reinforcements arrive?" The medical soldier in charge of treating the three wounded, covered in the blood of his comrades, asked anxiously when he saw the sergeant come in.

"Soldier, your task now is to keep them alive as much as possible, and I can tell you when the rescue force will arrive, I don't know." The sergeant said helplessly.

"But sir, the rescue force will not come again, I'm afraid they will ......," said the medic with a sad face.

"But there is nothing to be done now, the main forces of the future military resources company have launched a full-scale attack on Mogadishu, and now all communications in Mogadishu have been disrupted, we have no contact with the base, and we don't know anything else." The sergeant said.

As soon as the words of the listing fell, a soldier outside with a communicator on his back ran in and reported: "Sir, there is communication access, not our communication channel." ”

"Connected." When the sergeant heard this, he directly grabbed the communication headset and commanded.

"This is the Tiger Division Headquarters of the Future Military Resources Company, please let your highest commander speak to me." As soon as the communication was connected, a female voice came from the communication headset.

"Hello, I'm a sergeant in the U.S. Ranger and the highest officer here." When the sergeant heard this, he immediately said.

"Now I officially inform you that we accept the commission of the US Department of Defense to rescue you directly from Mogadishu as a priority, but because there are too many armed men around you, the rescue cannot arrive immediately, I hope you can continue to insist, we will send tanks and armored vehicles to rescue you, in order to distinguish between friend and foe, please release green smoke grenades in your area when our troops arrive, do you understand."

"Understood." When the sergeant heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Is there a way for you to send a helicopter over, we have several seriously injured people here who need to be treated immediately." ”

"I'm sorry, but Mogadishu is full of battlefields right now, and you're in the heart of the city, and our transport helicopters can't get there safely, so it's very dangerous."

The communicator, at this point, has clearly rejected such a risky request, but also continued: "But in your next battle, we will also provide you with accurate artillery suppression to assist them in resisting the armed attack." ”

"Okay!" The sergeant also knew that his request was a bit embarrassing, and when the ammunition was just delivered, the helicopter gunship did not dare to stay for a second longer, and left after dropping the ammunition, let alone landing and taking the wounded away, which was completely waiting to be destroyed.

There are a large number of armed men around, and they don't know how many bazookas are aimed at this place, and once the transport helicopter lands, it is the best live target.

"Please keep the communication open, we will still use this channel to contact you."

The words came from the other end of the communication and hung up, and the sergeant immediately passed the news to every American soldier here.

Although long-distance communication was not available, shortwave communication could still be used, and soon all the American soldiers here knew about it.

It was all blind waiting before, but now at least there is good news.

The rebel militia on the opposite side, after a short break, once again launched a large-scale attack on the building where the US military was located.

Mogadishu was attacked by the Tiger Division, and the rebels did not want to waste their forces here, but they were unwilling to let these American soldiers go.

Therefore, they couldn't wait to reorganize the attack, and the density and intensity of the attack exceeded before, which made the American soldiers who had just heard the good news immediately fall into a huge crisis.

At this moment, the sky had gradually darkened, and under the cover of a large number of militia machine gun fire, they frantically rushed towards the buildings defended by the American army, and the fierce battle was staged again.
