Commander Miloš Chuatoko had no choice but to make such an arrangement, after all, the forces he could call on were really limited.

As the order was given, the warriors began to attack in groups under the command of the commanders of all ranks, and the front seemed very quiet all the time, and did not meet any resistance.

Just when everyone thought that the enemy had abandoned their positions and evacuated, a two-story building directly opposite the corner of the street in front of them went downstairs, and suddenly remembered the roar of a heavy machine gun.

It can be heard from the sound that this is an old-fashioned Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun, not the kind of large-caliber heavy machine gun, but it is such a heavy machine gun, and after occupying such a favorable position where you can see the entire street, the combat effectiveness it exerts is also very terrifying.

With the rhythmic sound of gunfire, the soldiers of the second battalion, who were still bending their waists and groping their way forward just now, were instantly swept down more than a dozen people, and the soldiers behind hurriedly hid behind the houses on both sides.

It can be said that this machine-gun position is very tricky, and if you want to go deeper from the main street, you will inevitably be exposed to this machine-gun fire.

Fortunately, the rebels are now firing only this heavy machine gun, and there is no other weapon to cooperate to build a crossfire point, otherwise, there will definitely be more than a dozen people who have just fallen.

For this kind of unexpected situation, the drawbacks of the Brazilian border guards who have not experienced actual combat were immediately exposed.

Seeing that his company was suppressed, the commander of the leading company did not seek fire support from the rear, but directly ordered the soldiers to form a death squad and attack the machine-gun position under the cover of their own firepower.

However, this is obviously filling in the people, and it will not solve any problems at all.

After paying two squads of casualties, the commander of the second battalion in the rear finally found the problem, quickly transferred a mortar, and fired three grenades at the machine-gun fire point before completely smashing the second-floor downstairs into the sky.

But even so, this machine-gun fire point caused more than 30 casualties to the government army, which is equivalent to the direct loss of one-third of the combat effectiveness of the leading company.

Of course, after the positions that blocked the advance of the government troops were destroyed, everyone came out of the bunkers one after another and began to continue to search and advance, and after advancing more than 500 meters, the soldiers were finally able to see their comrades in the 3rd Battalion who were besieged.

But at this moment, the third battalion had obviously suffered heavy losses, and Commander Miloš Chuatoko could only see some sporadic resistance through the binoculars.

And the enemy besieging the third battalion seemed to be frightened by the arrival of their reinforcements, and retreated without a trace.

Seeing this scene, Commander Miloš Chuatoko did not dare to be careless, and took up the binoculars to observe the surrounding environment repeatedly, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he waved his hand to the commander of the second battalion.

The commander of the second battalion, who was already waiting for the order, nodded his head to show understanding, waved his hand to the soldiers under his command, and asked a platoon of soldiers to take the lead in picking up their weapons and vigilantly searching for the location of the third battalion.

Surprisingly, they met no resistance.

The chief of staff leaned over to the head of the regiment Miloš Chuatoko and said:

"These rebels aren't going to run away again, are they?"

Captain Miloš Chuatoko, who was holding the binoculars, frowned even more when he heard this, and now he couldn't figure out what the enemy meant.

But he didn't feel that way, at least, the current situation seemed that the rebels had the upper hand, and at this time it was logical that the other side should take advantage of the victory to pursue.

"I don't think so, and now this situation makes me feel bad."

After speaking, he turned his head to the herald beside him and said:

"Let the battalion in charge of cover send troops to the surrounding area to test the enemy's reality and see if they can find the enemy's traces."

When the herald heard this, he was ordered to leave.

The chief of staff said with some surprise:

"Commander, do you suspect that this is a trap for the enemy?"

"No, this is an enemy trap, but the prey contained in it is only the third battalion. If we hadn't taken the second battalion to rescue the first battalion, maybe it would have been all of us. ”

Captain Miloš Chuatoko spoke in an affirmative tone, keeping his eyes fixed on the center of the town, a depression not far away, apparently destroyed by the explosion. That is where the third battalion is struggling at the moment.

But the chief of staff had a different opinion, and looked at his regiment commander with a puzzled face:

"That's not right! If they really want to put us all in, why would they attack a battalion of garrisons! Doesn't this force us to divide our forces to rescue a battalion, and their plan to eat us in the town will not fail? ”

Raising his hand to the location where the third battalion was now, Commander Miloš Chuatoko said in a gloomy tone:

"Do you think that an explosion of this magnitude, which encompasses almost the entire town, will be just for one of our battalions?

I feel like it's more like it's for our two battalions together.

There were obviously not many people attacking the position of the first battalion, and their purpose was more likely to contain the first battalion, otherwise they would appear in time to support the main force that was trapped in the siege.

Maybe they didn't expect that the rebels who went to contain the first battalion almost defeated the first battalion directly, forcing Bassam to lie about the military situation, claiming that it was the main rebel force that attacked them, so we had to divide our troops to rescue.

This can be regarded as a crooked attack and disrupted the rebels' plans. ”

The chief of staff was also a little confused, not knowing whether it was right or wrong, and thought for a while before continuing:

"And what about the harassment and mine barrage we encountered when we went to Manguari for reinforcements? Isn't it directed at us? ”

Hearing this, Commander Miloš Chuatoko shook his head and said uncertainly:

"I feel that the people who harassed us should be the same people who attacked the first camp, didn't some of them escape?

Perhaps they were tasked with keeping a battalion out of town, or delaying a battalion's movements. And the mines were obviously not temporarily laid this morning, but should have been laid to block a battalion from reinforcing Manguari. ”

After such an analysis by Commander Miloš Chuatoko, the chief of staff couldn't help but feel a little reasonable,

But now the situation is very complicated, and all this is the speculation of the head of Miloš Chuatoko, which can only be used as a reference.

If it was as Commander Milos Chuatoko had predicted, there must have been enough rebel force in this vicinity to wipe out two of their battalions.

But the current situation is true, and there is no rebel figure at all.

Either the enemy saw that the tactical objective did not meet expectations and evacuated early, or the enemy had a bigger trap waiting for them.

In the chief of staff's mind, he didn't quite believe that the rebels had escaped, after all, if he wanted to escape, he would either take the water by boat or by land through the land route they had just attacked.

Otherwise, you'll have to run into the dense Amazon jungle.

But now that the enemy clearly has the upper hand, will the enemy take refuge in the Amazon jungle at this time? In the opinion of the Chief of Staff, this is impossible.

But now they don't even see the shadow of the enemy, how can this not make everyone worry?

After thinking for a while, the chief of staff still hesitated and said to Commander Miloš Chuatoko:

"Commander, should we send someone to the docks to have a look, so that this time the enemy has already gone directly to the docks and driven all our ships away and fled back to the town of Bittenkot?"

Originally, the head of the regiment, Miloš Chuatoko, did not quite agree with the chief of staff that the enemy had fled. But when he heard the chief of staff suggest that someone be sent to the dock to have a look, his heart couldn't help but move.

He didn't think that the enemy would snatch the ship and escape, on the contrary, he was feeling very bad now, and he had a premonition that if he didn't do well this time, he might have to make a big mistake here, and if something unpredictable really happened, he had to leave a way back.

And this back road now seems to be about to be realized on the ships on the docks.

Thinking of this, Commander Miloš Chuatoko no longer hesitated, although he did not trust the chief of staff in front of him, but, as the two supreme commanders of this army, he could not leave each other and run away alone.

He believed that the other party would not dare to leave him and run away alone, so he turned to the chief of staff and said:

"The Chief of Staff is right, it is indeed possible that the enemy may choose to attack our fleet, and if the enemy does control our fleet, our rear route will be completely cut off.

So be it! Chief of Staff, I will arrange for you a platoon of soldiers, and you will be responsible for going to the docks to find out where the situation is, and not allowing the enemy to seize or damage our ships, what do you think? ”

The chief of staff had just arrived, and he had not yet had a tacit understanding with Commander Miloš Chuatoko, so he was a little puzzled by the arrangement of the regiment commander, and said with a little hesitation:

"Ahh But there is a shortage of manpower here, so isn't it appropriate to divide troops at this time! ”

At this time, the border guards were indeed nervous, after all, the situation of the third battalion was unknown now, the first battalion was basically disabled, and although the second battalion did not suffer any losses, there were also many casualties in the process of attacking the town of Manguali.

Therefore, the chief of staff is worried that if the main force of the rebels is really still in the town, the strength of his side is obviously not superior, and if there is one more person, it will be a force.

Of course, since he was worried that the rebels would snatch their ships from the dock and flee from Manguali at this time, he must have been a little worried that he would only take a platoon of soldiers to the dock, and if he really met the main force of the rebels, he would be martyred directly.

After listening to his words, Commander Miloš Chuatoko frowned, and did not think much about it, but only directed the telescope, glanced around, and saw that there were no outsiders around, so he lowered his voice and said:

"Chief of Staff, to be honest, I don't feel very good. You are asked to go to the dock to leave us a back road, please be sure to hold the dock, if we can't do anything, we may have to lead the remnants and evacuate by water. Do you understand what I mean? ”

When the chief of staff heard this, he understood the plans of Commander Miloš Chuatoko, and although he was worried that he would encounter an enemy on the dock, it was impossible for him to express his worries at this time.

After all, the head of the regiment is tantamount to handing over the retreat to his own hands, and in this kind of situation of dragging his life, if he pushes back and obstructs, he is obviously a little ignorant.

Therefore, he didn't say anything more, but nodded firmly in his eyes, and said to Captain Miloš Chuatoko:

"I see! We must guard the ship and make sure that the road is clear. If you don't come, we won't leave. ”

This statement made the head of the regiment Miloš Chuatoko very satisfied, indicating that the chief of staff had understood what he meant.

Seeing this, he patted the chief of staff on the shoulder, and said with a pun:

"Then get rid of it."

After speaking, he raised the telescope in his hand again and observed the situation ahead.

Seeing this, the chief of staff didn't say anything, just gave a silent military salute and turned to leave.

A platoon of soldiers from the 2nd Battalion Commando entered the position of the 3rd Battalion without danger, and the streets had been completely destroyed, and all the houses on both sides had collapsed.

In the middle of the road lay the bodies of many border guards.

Judging from the wounds, many people did not die from the gunshot at all, but some explosion injuries without wounds, apparently, caused by the shock wave of explosives.

This kind of scene made everyone's scalp tingle in the eyes of the soldiers, and many fighters even vomited on the spot.

Soon, the commander of the second battalion also touched it carefully, and as soon as he saw the situation on the battlefield, he knew that the third battalion was finished, and he couldn't see that there were still soldiers of the third battalion who could stand normally.

The blow to the morale of the entire army was very great in this situation.

However, now is obviously not the time to give the three soldiers corpses, and shouted at the soldiers around him:

"What are you doing here, everyone continues to search and see if they can find the brothers who are still alive, the commandos continue to move forward, these damned rebels, we must not let them run away like this."

The soldiers were shocked when they heard this, and they no longer hesitated, and began to continue to move forward, and the soldiers of the assault team directly crossed the position where the third battalion was located and searched and advanced further ahead.

The commander of the second battalion led the rest of the soldiers of the second battalion to start searching for survivors, and the survivors who may have been found are too few, and most of them are a little delirious or deaf in both ears.

I tried to ask about some on-site conditions, but I couldn't find the right person.

Just as everyone was busy rescuing the wounded, the earth-shattering gunfire suddenly sounded on the periphery, and judging from the direction, it was supposed that the battalion responsible for covering on both flanks exchanged fire with the enemy.

Commander Miloš Chuatoko immediately found a vantage point and looked through the telescope to the periphery of the street.

I saw that on both sides of the street behind, in the low houses, countless figures rushed out, and they were firing fiercely at the border guards who were searching and advancing in the street.

And the fighters of the first battalion were also looking for cover while desperately fighting back.

After a period of observation, Commander Miloš Chuatoko's face turned pale, and the enemy obviously wanted to eat them all directly, because now he and the others were obviously surrounded by the enemy.

Without waiting for Commander Miloš Chuatoko to think about it, mortars began to be fired at their positions in the rear of the rebels. Mortar shells were seen constantly exploding in the crowd.

People kept falling. This situation is obviously due to the fact that the enemy has been prepared for this situation and has marked the street.

The mortars of the border guards also reacted quickly and began to return fire at the enemy's artillery positions.

But the commander of the regiment, Miloš Chuatoko, knew that even if the enemy's artillery was eliminated, it would be difficult to restore the current situation.
