Chapter 388: The Age of Resources (7)

Dayang asked for two indigenous platoons, and after looking for a day on the Magical Mountain, he failed to find the "God Box". In She Lei's view, a group of people are looking for things in the mountains like ants moving, and finding them is perverted, so they apply to end the search, so as not to waste valuable military resources.

However, Sun Ruihe firmly believed in the results of his interrogation and believed that the "God Box" was very important, and Da Yang agreed with him, so after the discussion in the diamond-shaped conference hall, Yu Weichao divided the two indigenous platoons into two. One of them, led by Da Yang, and 100 village hunters continued the search work, while the other indigenous platoon was responsible for protecting 100 stone villagers and began to search for ore on Magical Mountain.

Mara City naturally knew about the new operation of Xijiang Water Village, but the Temple War had already begun, and all the Temple troops in Mara City were transferred to the front line, so they naturally did not dare to provoke a war.

Sun Ruihe pulled the tank company into the temporary barracks at the west entrance of the ring road, blocking the way into the mountain. In order to gain a superiority in firepower, both cadet tanks did not continue training, but were added as full-fledged members, so that there were 6 tanks with more than 25 rounds per minute of suppressed firepower.

For medieval armoured soldiers and armoured cavalry, an armored formation with three tǐng machine guns and six main guns was a nightmare for infantry, and even a master of fighting skills could not think of breaking through the defense line of a tank company head-on.

Two lightly armored inspection teams, led by Li Feng, carried out a new round of suppression operations around the city. The soldiers and residents of Mara City are accustomed to this. They entered and exited the city gates only in the morning, and the walls were left with only observation posts, and the rest of the city was withdrawn to be ravaged by heavy machine guns and machine guns. The knights were mobilized. It can't be done without mobilization, and now that the heavy cavalry and heavy infantry have been transferred, is it possible to use light infantry to block the gun holes.

Li Yizhuang's indigenous platoon remained in Xijiang Water Village, where it was in a period of rest and preparation for battle.

As the aboriginal soldiers expected, "due to the completion of a major mission", the entire aboriginal platoon received the "Army Collective Merit Medal", which is higher than the "Infantry Collective Merit Medal" or "Armored Corps Collective Merit Medal" and lower than the "Xijiang Collective Merit Medal", but for the soldiers, the equivalent of two months' salary bonus directly to the hands is still very powerful.

In addition to the collective exploits, a number of soldiers received the "Bronze Assault Medal", a new medal awarded in the diamond-shaped chamber to motorized infantry who participated in three assault, support, counterattack or reconnaissance operations, as well as non-infantry personnel wounded and commended in action.

This medal is modeled after the German World War II Medal, but it fits perfectly into the current situation.

Neither the trainees nor the indigenous soldiers in Xijiang Water Village have the ability or psychological preparation to endure heavy casualties and more dangerous actions, even veterans.

Under the protection of armored vehicles, tanks, heavy machine guns, and Jī light-guided missiles, the soldiers were able to successfully complete their tasks, which was the excellent performance that Chen Yi expected. These personnel who have only undergone short-term unconventional training cannot be forced to reach the level of battle-hardened veterans, especially cadets from Earth, who need to be trained and trained for a long time. On the other hand, the officers who command operations are rarely of the excellent level of professional background, and being able to complete the task in a decent manner is already a brave act that makes people sweat coldly.

Because of this, the task of being carried out independently by small units that are currently being carried out and that may continue to emerge in the future will be a great test for the soldiers, and they are destined to be dangerous. Now the gentlemen of the Mara city-state can't take care of it, if the temple war is over, the generals who are strong and not afraid of sacrifice will definitely have the ability to swallow any company and platoon they want to swallow without the protection of the bunker.

The "Bronze Assault Medal" was born under the guidance of this idea, and is currently given to those combat troops who have escaped the protection of the road. Like him, there were seven or eight people from several other platoons. As a result, they once again received a bonus of two months' salary, and for a time they became the richest people in the whole company.

The young soldiers' minds were simple-minded, and they all wanted to make up when they saw the benefits, and for a while the assault operation became a popular choice, and in the gap before the end of the Temple War, a group of well-trained brave soldiers appeared.

However, the diamond-shaped chamber, although it solved the problem of independent combat of small units, could not prevent the emergence of marriage làngcháo within the army. Whether it is the officials in the Xijiang Water Village or the indigenous soldiers who have joined the army, they have already reached the age of marriage. In the past, they were plagued by the reality of lack of money and could not complete the great cause of marriage, but now that they have money, especially the soldiers who have received medals or promotions, they have all considered marrying. The people of the Western Continent do not have the understanding that the army cannot marry, and which knight is not a wife and lover running all over the ground. There were even officers who participated in the temple war with their wives into battle, and when the time came, they lived in a tent, and even had a son after the war.

The diamond-shaped chamber had to convene an emergency meeting for this purpose. However, before they could discuss the results, news came from the front line, and a hired alien bodyguard began to attack the prospecting troops.

In this case, Yu Weichao simply delegated power to the Policy Research Office and asked them to come up with an evaluation plan. He held up the microphone and asked, "Did you find the mine?" ”

The walkie-talkie can hear the "da-da-da" heavy machine gun triple shè, and the first batch of trainees who came to the Western Continent are also veterans, and their performance in the low-pressure environment is quite good.

The platoon commander Hong Bi hoarsely said, "I found a lot of stones, and there may be ore in them." ”

"Okay. Were there any casualties? ”

"Not yet, we're on the mountain beam, these monsters rush up, and we're dead." Hong Bi is also a veteran, and he is an old special soldier introduced by Hu Yang, so he can still talk and laugh.

If it was his first battle, he would have to shout now.

Yu Weichao reacted to the increased pressure, and said in a very formal voice: "Tell you where you are now, stick to it, and wait for help." ”

"Yes, we are ...... in the mountain beam of the second gate of Magical Mountain" Hong Bi was much more relieved at once. He is most afraid of the retreat order, the physical fitness of the indigenous platoon is good, but the military discipline is worse than that of the cadets of the inspection team, and he currently lacks a real sense of military honor. If you leave the position without the protection of a heavy machine gun, it will most likely really turn into a rout.

She Lei took Yu Weichao's phone and said, "I'm She Lei, report the enemy's situation, how long do you judge how long you can hold out?" ”

"It's all aliens, probably, 2,000 people. They are in good health, they can fight from long distances with automatic rifles, and the effectiveness of heavy machine guns is acceptable. We are in the mountains, the peaks are steep, and it is no problem to hold on for another two hours. ”

The figure of 2,000 people startled everyone, and She Lei hurriedly asked: "Ask for confirmation, there are really two thousand people?" ”

"I saw four teams of 200 people, and there were two teams of 200 people who charged just now, and there was a piece of black pressure behind the mountain beam, at least there was this number." Hong Bi's tone was not very urgent, also thanks to his equipment and geography. The absolute height of the so-called "Magical Mountain" is more than 600 meters, which is quite good, and they are in the second gate - the so-called lock is the saying and description of the western continent, that is, there are gentle slopes and high grounds, and an infantry platoon is placed there with a number of heavy machine guns, and the only worry is that there are not enough bullets.

She Lei hesitated for a moment and said, "I will hand over the command of the scene to Sun Ruihe, and you will immediately contact the tank company now, and they will carry out the main rescue work." ”

Before the end, Yu Weichao asked: "Are there any casualties among the people of Shicun?" ”

"There are two people from Ishimura who were slightly injured, and they are both stray arrows, so it doesn't matter." Hong Bi paused, his hoarse voice in the distorted current, and said, "We are running low on bullets, and we hope to stop a diversion operation as soon as possible, so that we can go down the mountain to replenish ammunition." ”

"Okay, try not to carry out dangerous actions, give full play to the role of the people of Shicun, be sure to build fortifications, and contact at any time." She Lei didn't give too specific an opinion, because he didn't know how to fight such a battle.

For the soldiers on the scene, the battle situation was much simpler.

Shooting is the main theme.

The reason why Hong Bi contacted the walled city during the battle was because there was no break between battles.

The aliens did not appear suddenly, but the warning time they left for Hong Bi was only 10 minutes, and in such a short time, in addition to gathering troops, especially the Shicun people who scattered to find mines, and ordering the 3rd squad of a gate to guard the armored vehicles and armored trucks, he desperately carried three heavy machine guns and 3 base ammunition back. The total weight of the M2 with tripod is close to 60 kg, and the ammunition of one base is 140 kg and 4500 rounds. Coupled with the three heavy machine guns and ammunition he had brought up the mountain earlier, Hong Bi was able to relax a little.

The sound of heavy machine guns never stopped from the beginning of the sound.

On the contrary, the crisp "click" sound of an automatic rifle is less and less heard. The aliens are tall, strong men with beards and eyebrows as long as hair, often bare-chested, and holding shields. Some good leather shields can block the bullets of automatic rifles from two or three hundred meters away, and occasionally when they are shattered, they can also deflect the bullets, thus saving their lives.

In this case, a team of 200 people began to slowly move up.

Hong Bi stared downward.

When I carried the ammunition up the mountain beam, I always felt that it was far away, but now when I look at the gentle slope below, I feel that it is so short and short. But time was not enough for him to adjust his position,

At present, the indigenous platoon has carried a total of 6 heavy machine guns up the mountain, which are not placed directly above and on the side of the gentle slope, hoping to form crossfire with the armored vehicles below the mountain.

According to the infantry code, heavy machine-gun emplacements should have at least stone-built bunkers, but even before the first 200-man squad arrived, the bunkers were still unfinished.

Fortunately, the aliens wanted to show their prowess and did not immediately use bows and arrows and javelins.

"300 meters to go!" The village chief of Ishimura roared.

The aliens don't know much about skirmishers, but they have experience dodging javelins and will still find cover.

Hong Bi squeezed the walkie-talkie tightly and shouted softly: "Shangyun ten, Shangyun ten." ”

"Platoon commander!" Shangyun 10 was the third squad leader who was guarding the armored car at the foot of the mountain.

"When the enemy reaches 200 meters, the machine guns are supported." Hong Bi didn't want to do any secret weapons, he brought all the recruits, if he couldn't show his strength, the soldiers would collapse first before it was funny. Below is a team of thousands of people.

Shangyun Shi's voice was deep and slightly excited, and he shouted: "Yes, the big poisonous snake is ready." ”
