Chapter 063. Captives (2-in-1 chapters)
The gentle breeze with a hint of coolness blows through the birch trees and bushes, bringing with it the Alaskan chill. But no one cared about the crisp forest air, and the brave boys of the US Federal Army, holding their M4A1 assault rifles and M249 light machine guns, looked at the surroundings with serious faces.
Just behind them, all the M2 "Bradley" infantry fighting vehicles had all opened the rear hatches, and many heavily armed companions jumped out inside, and then they all scanned the surrounding movements with extremely solemn eyes, especially the muzzles of their guns were subconsciously aimed at the edge of the forest in front of them, where the bushes were dense.
With the help of the M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, they quickly formed a makeshift firing position. Having been trained in infantry and tank coordination tactics, they can also follow the commander's orders to accompany the infantry fighting vehicle next to them to attack, or use the fastest movement to re-enter the manned cabin and quickly evacuate. After all, they are all soldiers who have undergone rigorous training, and even if there are veterans who have just returned to active duty, the previous weeks of adaptive training have completely restored their previous combat capability.
But everyone didn't speak, and looked at the hundred meters in front of them with extremely serious expressions, and eight heavily armed Anchorage Line scouts were bending down and walking cautiously forward. Their backs were slightly arched, and their legs were spread apart like a curled upright lobster, but the precise and nimble M4A1 assault rifle that rested tightly on their shoulders was enough to illustrate their fear.
This is a standard tactical maneuver in the U.S. federal army, which can take the form of falling, advancing, rolling, jumping, etc., depending on the situation, to deal with a series of emergencies. For these eight scouts, the greater effect of this action is to quickly fall to the ground in any situation and avoid direct fire!
In front of them, in the thick bushes, a bunker less than two meters high stood. It appears to have been painted in green and black forest camouflage, and is covered with a camouflage net and fresh foliage wrapped around it to ensure concealment.
As the bunker was close to the ground, a slender slit was on the edge of the forest, where the eight scouts were located, and they were just as cautious as they were looking at the slender slit. And that gap gives them the feeling of a demon's big mouth, waiting for the prey to approach the mouth and swallow it in one gulp!
And the black appearance, I couldn't see what was inside at all, which also made the eight scouts who were slowly approaching more and more bottomless in their hearts. They all know that this is a standard Soviet machine-gun bunker, and even on the M2 "Bradley" infantry fighting vehicle, the 25mm machine gun may not be able to destroy it in a short time.
In military publications published by the U.S. Federal Army, the best strategy for this kind of semi-permanent machine-gun bunker built entirely of concrete is to directly use an anti-tank rocket launcher with artificial guidance, in addition to direct bombardment with tank guns. As for light infantrymen like them, who did not have many heavy weapons, there was no evaluation in the military press about this kind of machine-gun pillbox that could spray heavy machine-gun bullets at any time.
As for military education within the army, it is advisable to call the noon heavy weapons of the anti-pillbox as soon as possible, if this is not possible, the best way is to walk away or wait in place. Especially for the Soviet machine-gun bunkers, many recruits will be told by veterans and instructors not to take it lightly when they first join the army. Because of the crude and violent Soviet-made light machine guns or heavy machine guns, not to mention their group of light infantry, even a thinner armored transport vehicle can penetrate at a certain distance!
"Good, keep going, nothing out of the ordinary..."
The scout at the head nodded, motioning for his comrades to disperse slowly. For them, even if there is a main battle tank in front of them, they have to keep moving forward. Because this is an order that has been accepted, as soldiers, they have the consciousness of dying in battle. What's more, their current order is to scout the machine-gun bunker at the front!
They slowly lowered their bodies, and their pace of progress gradually dispersed, and the distance between each of them was close to three meters, and they were extremely scattered. But as they walked forward, everyone's faces became extremely solemn, and they spread out more and more to the left and right, and even in the area directly in front of them, there were now less than two people left.
The other six men had already leaned towards the left and right, and their steps were gradually thin and quick, especially towards the side of the bunker, and they all began to run. Although the front and side firepower of the bunker is very strong, but behind it is the blind spot of shooting, as long as they can break through the fire range of this bunker, then they can easily take this bunker!
They knew this very well in their hearts, even the six M2 "Bradley" infantry fighting vehicles in the rear. The 25mm cannon was already aimed at the machine gun bunker, and as long as there was the slightest abnormality, the 25mm caliber cannon could completely suppress the firing position of the machine gun bunker with the armor-piercing incendiary bombs that had already been loaded. At a distance of less than two hundred meters, infantry fighting vehicles with sighting equipment are more accurate than ordinary heavy machine guns, and their fire suppression is just as strong!
"It's coming! It's coming soon! ”
The two soldiers at the front continued to bend forward and stride, they were already close to twenty meters away, and they had almost reached the bottom line of the machine-gun pillbox. But every time they took a step forward, they felt the cold sweat on their sideburns gurgling, and even their hearts were beating violently.
Even if you have the consciousness of dying in battle, who is not afraid of death? Even when they were a group of soldiers who came down from the front line in Mexico, they were extremely nervous when they faced unknown dangers and didn't know when they would shoot deadly bullets that would easily break them in two.
But when the two scouts subconsciously swallowed and spitted and wanted to move on, a voice suddenly came out of the walkie-talkie hanging on their chests. Their already extremely tense nerves immediately reacted, and they fell directly to the ground, clinging to the ground, not daring to make any appearance at all. The power of the heavy machine gun in the machine gun bunker can completely tear people to pieces, and they are less than twenty meters away from the shooting hole, I am afraid that it is good to leave a whole corpse after death.
"Oh, that's embarrassing...", but when they were on the ground, their brains had already reacted, and the two scouts couldn't help but lie on the ground and look at each other, exhaling in embarrassment and joy before they got up on the ground and walked towards the back of the bunker with their M4A1 assault rifles.
"No enemy found, no situation found!"
At this time, the six scouts who had already circled behind the machine-gun bunker on both sides were already standing at the entrance of the bunker with their assault rifles. And right in front of their eyes, the gate of the bunker, which should have been firmly closed, was now half-hidden, and it did not appear to be locked at all.
The eight of them looked at the scene in front of them and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. This machine gun bunker is half-buried in the ground, and the gate at the entrance also has a slope of less than half a meter, but the gate that symbolizes the most important machine gun bunker, which should have been cast in steel and could not be blown open with even a small amount of explosives, is now half-hidden, and they don't mind the appearance of outsiders entering, but it makes them a little hesitant.
"It's just a bunch of damn Soviets, this is still the territory of our American Federation, why be afraid of them?!"
Spat at the mouth and foaming at the mouth, one of the scouts was the first to lift his rifle and walk down, the M4A1 assault rifle pressed against his shoulder, and he looked at the iron door below with great seriousness. But there were two men behind him, all of them cautiously looking at the half-hidden gate below, their fingers firmly on the trigger. As soon as any enemy appears in front of them, it is accompanied by a dense hail of bullets!
But nothing appeared, when the scout at the front slowly stretched out his hand, opened the half-hidden bunker gate, looked at the somewhat dim space, but without the slightest hesitation, directly opened the gate of the bunker, and stepped into the bunker!
His teeth clenched, and his eyes quickly swept over the area inside the pillbox where there might be enemies as he rushed inside. But there was no one in the bunker, only his heart beating violently, and it appeared in his ears slightly. His gaze slowly swept through the bunker, but he found that except for a table and a few chairs, there were some leather bedding left in the corner of the wall to protect against the cold, and there was no one at all. He pressed the walkie-talkie on his chest and slowly reported: "The inside of the bunker has been occupied, and no enemy has been found!" ”
He and the two soldiers behind him were back to back, carefully scanning the interior space of the bunker, which was only about twenty square meters. But their faces were also a little puzzled, but the M4A1 assault rifle in their hands was still aimed at the pillbox. Although they had no enemies, their expressions remained cautious.
But when the scout who entered the bunker first raised his head, his eyes suddenly tightened, and he directly pressed the walkie-talkie on his chest and reported loudly: "Something is wrong! He swallowed hard, this Soviet machine gun bunker belonged to the semi-bunker type, the upper firing position and the lower living quarters, and when the scout looked up at the firing position, he was surprised to find a brand new RPD light machine gun, which was erected on the firing position of this bunker!
But the scout immediately noticed the difference, the RPD light machine gun of the Soviet-standard squad support weapon was not just one. On the front and sides of the machine-gun bunker, he found a total of five RPD light machine guns, and even in the dim light they could spot the brand-new gun carriages, as if they had just been produced in a munitions factory. And next to each light machine gun, there are two boxed spare bullet chains, which are simply out of readiness!
They had no doubt that if the enemy appeared in front of the pillbox, it would probably be a metal storm of five RPD light machine guns, so that the enemy would know what Soviet fire suppression was. But now, there is no one in the firing position of this bunker, and there is no half a figure in the entire bunker, if there is no abnormal situation, it is impossible at all!
"Didn't find the enemy?"
His voice had reached everyone's ears through the walkie-talkie, and Liszt had heard the scout's findings just as clearly. Standing in front of an M2 "Bradley" infantry fighting vehicle, he couldn't help frowning slightly, squinting at the dark green and dark green paint in front of him, plus the bunker with camouflage nets, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "It's really wrong!" ”
Since the Soviets have set up a bunker here, even if they find out about Liszt's arrival, I am afraid they will not give up easily. According to the greedy brown bears, there is no good way to give up the land they have occupied, except to make them feel pain with the rifle in their hands.
Slowly gritting his teeth, Liszt squinted his eyes at the bunker, held down the walkie-talkie with one hand but did not issue an order, but turned his head to Sofitel behind him and said: "According to the marks on the map, maybe we didn't come to the wrong place?" Although he was asking, he also refuted his own question, frowning and saying, "Let's go over and have a look!" ”
"I think so."
Sophie nodded, and the deputy who used to be the company commander also had a tacit understanding with Liszt, and immediately beckoned a combat team next to him to come over and escort Liszt and him towards the bunker. The bunker had already been occupied, so they were advancing very fast, and it took them more than ten seconds to reach the gate behind the bunker.
"There weren't any enemies in there, but they found some of the things they left behind, all brand new!"
The scout at the head had already stepped forward, nodding at Liszt and Sophie, and leading the way to the bunker. Nothing had moved in the bunker, and the two scouts had climbed to the firing position above, carefully watching their surroundings. The scout pointed to the cabinet in the corner and said, "It's doubtful that they have even left their coats to protect them from the cold!" ”
"It's really confusing." Sofitel frowned slightly, but looked at the corner next to her, where a pile of leather bedding was lying on the floor. He walked over and stretched out his hand to open it, but his expression was slightly stunned, he immediately reached out and touched the futon inside, turned his head and frowned at Liszt: "There is still residual temperature, according to estimates, they left for no more than ten minutes, it looks very hasty." ”
"I don't believe that in the fall of Alaska, a night without warm items can survive unscathed."
Nodding slowly, Liszt also walked over and opened the cabinet in the corner, which was full of green cotton coats, about a dozen sets, although new and new, you could see the traces of frequent wear. And Liszt's brows couldn't help but furrow more and more, because he also saw that on the leather hat, there were also the familiar red five stars, which were shining on it!
He took a deep breath of the air in the bunker, and the smell of long-lived people also appeared in his nostrils. But Liszt's brows furrowed tightly, and he reached out to close the open cabinet, and a complex emotion appeared in his heart. Especially looking at the familiar RPD light machine gun, a sense of loss seemed to block his heart and make him breathless.
The red star and sickle hammer in this world are still created by Marxist-Leninist and Stalin, but the world did not have turmoil in the 90s of the 20th century, and the red empire still occupies the top of the map intact, bringing hope to the proletariat all over the world with the power that any capitalist fears.
"Wait, who's there? Come out, we've seen you! ”
Suddenly, the scouts shouted angrily from outside the bunker, which directly interrupted Liszt's train of thought. The scouts outside the bunker were all yelling one after another, even if they weren't through the walkie-talkie. Before Liszt and the others could walk out of the bunker, with the crisp firing of the M4A1 assault rifle, a sound of footsteps and running appeared outside, and at the same time, a slightly excited voice appeared in the walkie-talkie: "We have captured ten Soviets!" ”
"What?" Slightly stunned, Liszt couldn't help but glance towards the exit of the bunker, and at the same time immediately walked towards the outside. Before he could get out of the bunker gates and stairs, he heard the noise and shouting outside, mixed with a different English rap. And for any American, this unique rap is no stranger to them, because this tongue-twisting language, except for the Soviets entrenched in Northern Europe and Siberia, is not at all on the North American continent!
"Be honest, hands up!"
Just a dozen meters deep in the birch forest, in some dense bushes, a dozen scouts were holding M4A1 assault rifles and pressing ten strangers with their hands raised. They were dressed in green clothing with dark markings, which looked like camouflage, but it was very different from the white snow camouflage worn by Liszt and his group of scouts. And the AKM assault rifle hanging on the chest shows their identity.
"Soviets!"
Liszt frowned slightly, and the ten Soviet soldiers with frightened eyes were raising their hands, looking as if they had just joined the army. Their faces and bodies were stained with leaves and dirt, and they looked so embarrassed that Liszt wondered if it was the tough warriors of the mighty Red Empire.
However, he soon noticed the difference, and the first Russian-speaking guy did not show any panicked expression, and had a very different reaction from the nine soldiers behind him. Even when the scouts scolded them in English, everyone but the first Russian-speaking guy seemed to understand.
"Oh, interesting, what did you find?"
Slowly spitting to the side, Liszt looked at the Soviet man in front of him, but the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. But he looked at the nine soldiers who were also dressed behind him, and the smile on his face turned up again, and he looked at the slave who was about to buy it like a picky nobleman, and said lightly: "You seem to understand, our English?" ”
