Chapter 4: The Enemy Strikes

While Ouyang Yu's soldiers were struggling to dig trenches, the mercenary groups on the small hillsides on both sides were also building fortifications, but their fortifications were very simple, just build a chest wall that was not too thick with dirt.

The leader of the Bald Eagle mercenary group on the left slope is more familiar with the leader of the polar bear mercenary group on the right hillside, and the two of them get together to discuss the battle while their subordinates are building fortifications.

There are more than eighty people in the Bald Eagle Mercenary Group, more than a hundred people in the Polar Bear Mercenary Group, plus Ouyang Yu's forty people, the three mercenary groups add up to exactly two companies.

The leader of the bald eagle was a man in his forties, looking at Ouyang Yu's soldiers who were digging the soil with a sapper shovel at the bottom of the mountain, and sneered: "This is the mercenary group? Not only are the number so small, but they are also digging holes in the ground, and I heard Lieutenant Pete say that the leader of this mercenary group called River Crab is actually a beautiful young woman, hahahaha...... I've never heard of a woman on the battlefield, and I laugh to death!"

The leader of the polar bear mercenary group was about the same age as the bald eagle, with a thick beard, took out an iron wine jug from his arms and took a sip, turned his head to look at Ouyang Yu, who was directing the soldiers to dig trenches, and snorted disdainfully, "The battlefield is a place for men, and women are here to make a fuss." ”

"That's right!" the leader of the bald eagle praised loudly, "It's good for women to take care of their children at home and do housework, the battlefield is our men!"

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

Lieutenant Pete walked to the two of them to check the fortifications of the two mercenary groups, Lieutenant Pete is not alone, he has more than 30 people in his hands and a platoon of regular soldiers, but these regular army soldiers will not participate in the battle, but exist as a combat team, if the mercenary group that accepts the task does not complete the task with intention or tries to escape in the battle, the regular army soldiers can have the right to kill any mercenary group.

Pete is in charge of the finances and life and death power of all the mercenary groups in the fifth position, the two leaders of the Bald Eagle and the Polar Bear mercenary group did not dare to slack off, and quickly stood upright, bowed to him slightly, and called out hello to the chief, Pete nodded in return, Pete's attitude is good, if it is replaced by other coalition regular army officers, they may not look at them squarely.

"We're talking about how to work together. The leader of the bald eagle replied in a loud voice.

After hearing this, Lieutenant Pete was very happy to praise the two of them, and then changed the topic and said to Ouyang Yu, "The number of river crab mercenaries is small, in order to ensure the victory of this battle, your polar bear mercenary group will help take care of them when they are more dangerous." ”

"Yes, it is appropriate for everyone to help each other in the fight against the imperial invaders, and I will definitely do what the chief asks!" the polar bear leader patted his chest and readily agreed.

"Very good, the river crab mercenary group is participating in a war mission for the first time, and there is almost no experience, you guys are busy with me going to their side first. ”

After Pete finished speaking, he saluted the two leaders and walked down the hill to find Ouyang Yu, looking at Pete who was smiling at Ouyang Yu, the bald eagle leader said to the polar bear leader sourly: "Beautiful women are popular, we usually don't have less filial piety, we don't have a smile when facing us, you look at a smile in front of a beautiful woman, and you look like a pug in front of a beautiful woman." ”

The leader of the polar bear also secretly snorted at the back of Lieutenant Pete, "The people who want me are going to die for you to please women, I bah, even if the people of the river crab mercenary group die, Lao Tzu will not let my people go to one." ”

No matter how vicious the two people on the mountain cursed, Lieutenant Pete under the mountain wouldn't know about it anyway, and he was chatting happily with Ouyang Yu now.

"Miss Ouyang, I have already greeted the leader of the polar bear mercenary group just now, and if there is a danger in the position you are responsible for, he will send someone to support you. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Lieutenant, for your concern, and we can go and have a drink together if we have time when the mission is completed. Ouyang Yu stupidly sent out an invitation, but he didn't expect that if she was still a man, there would be no problem with this kind of invitation, but she is now a girl, a girl, or a very beautiful girl, it is very inappropriate to send this kind of invitation to a man, which will make the invited man have the wrong idea, at least Lieutenant Pete has the wrong idea, he tried his best to control the ecstasy in his heart and not let himself lose his temper in front of the beauty, and said in an excited tone: "I will definitely wait for your invitation when the task is completed!" ”

Sent away the excited Lieutenant Pete, Ouyang Yu also joined the work of digging trenches, she was consciously exercising her physical strength, if she didn't have a strong physique, she would not be able to command the troops in case of a vicious battle or a hard battle in the future, so Ouyang Yu started her own exercise plan from digging the trenches.

Ouyang Yu and her soldiers finally dug out two standard trenches when night fell, the S-shaped trenches were two meters deep in two days, and there were all kinds of anti-artillery holes, communication trenches, drainage ditches, etc., because the enemy had not yet appeared, there was plenty of time Ouyang Yu ordered to cut some logs from nearby and build four machine gun bunkers on both sides and in the middle of the trenches, and four MG-08 water-cooled heavy machine guns were hidden in these bunkers.

At night, the red, blue, and yellow moonlight unique to this world rose from the horizon respectively, Ouyang Yu ate some compressed biscuits exchanged from the system, drank a little water, and leaned on the edge of the trench because he was too tired and gradually fell asleep.

The sun slowly rose the next day, Ouyang Yu, who had slept all night, yawned in the trench and moved his body, and after eating something casually, he began to inspect the situation of the soldiers, although the soldiers recruited from the system dug the trenches for almost a day yesterday, but now their spirit and morale are very good.

It didn't take Ouyang Yu much time to patrol around the small position, and when she was about to return to her mini-headquarters in the second trench, a coalition soldier found her.

"The sentry has spotted the enemy's army five kilometers ahead, and Lieutenant Pete orders you to immediately prepare for battle!"

"It's finally here. ”

Ouyang Yu's heart was a little excited, a little expectant, and a little scared, but no matter what happened in her heart, she was ready for a big battle.

"Get into position!"

The soldiers under Ouyang Yu carried the ammunition boxes with guns into their respective positions, and the four machine gun teams put the long cartridge belts made of canvas full of bullets into the gun boring of the machine guns, and the main shooter pulled the bolt machine and put his hands on the firing button, ready to shoot all the preparations.

"Don't shoot any of them, wait for my orders!"

Ouyang Yu lay in the trench and raised the 98K sniper rifle, and from the sniper scope, she could clearly see the helmets of the enemy soldiers emerging from a distance.

According to the intelligence of the heralds, the enemy troops who came to attack were about 300 people in a battalion, all of whom were servant troops of the Phoenix Empire. The army is almost the same, but the color is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, everything, Ouyang Yu saw the enemy army from the sniper scope is almost cyan, it is a servant army sent by the Norway Kingdom, there are only a small number of soldiers wearing black military uniforms, it should be the soldiers of the Phoenix Empire, and the role is similar to that of Lieutenant Pete's soldiers, all of which are used to supervise the servant army fighting. By the way, Ouyang Yu's soldiers wore the gray military uniforms of the German army M40 in World War II.

The enemy stopped about a kilometer away from the position, scattered, looking for concealment, and after about ten minutes, more than a hundred enemy soldiers divided into three groups, and at the same time launched a tentative attack on the positions of Ouyang Yu's river crab mercenary group and the bald eagle and polar bear mercenary group on both sides.

"The order was given that the machine guns were not allowed to fire, and the enemy was lowered to a hundred meters before firing. ”

Ouyang Yu's order was quickly conveyed, her soldiers opened the safety of their guns to prevent misfire, and waited for the enemy's approach, her idea was to wait for the enemy to get closer, use a sudden platoon of guns to shoot at the enemy, and strive to hit the enemy in the first two rounds of shooting and repel the enemy's reconnaissance attack, so that the enemy could not figure out their own reality and reality, so as to produce wrong judgments, Ouyang Yu's idea is very good, but she is not the supreme commander of the fifth position, and the bald eagle and polar bear mercenary group on the two hills do not understand her tactics。

"Shoot!"

The leader of the Bald Eagle and the Polar Bear mercenary group gave the order to shoot when the enemy was still 400 meters away from their position, and their two hundred or so mercenaries opened fire one after another, and the light bullets fired from the magic crystal gun pierced the sky and shot at the enemy soldiers who were scouting.

But well...... The shots of the two mercenary groups of Bald Eagle and Polar Bear seemed to be fierce, but because of the distance, the mercenaries' marksmanship was not very good, and the first three rounds of shooting only hit a few unlucky enemy soldiers, and the other enemy soldiers immediately fell to the ground.

"Woo Woo ......!"

The enemy soldiers lying on the ground began to raise their guns to fight back, because the distance was too far and the intensity of training was not high, and the bullets fired did not have any accuracy and flew all over the sky like the bullets fired by the mercenaries.

The two sides fired back and forth for more than ten minutes, except for a few people who were shot at the beginning and a large number of magic crystal bullets were wasted, there were miraculously no casualties.
