Chapter 80: Destroying the withered and decaying

In later generations, the French launched a campaign in Africa called Operation Serval, the purpose and results of the operation are not talked about for the time being, but in the operation, the French wheeled chariots are interspersed with high-mobility and interspersed with the practice of many military fans, after all, no matter in any era, the risk of interspersing this tactic is always very large.

But Shepard still resolutely decided to intersperse the execution of tactics, after all, he wants to win, and high risk is often accompanied by high returns.

And now, the reinforcements that François saw as the last straw that broke the camel's back not only did not join the battlefield as he had hoped, but became the first casualty of the Shadow Company's counterattack.

The machine gunner of the No. 1 car shot a whole chain of bullets at the second truck in one breath, the bullets crackled in various positions of the truck, the broken glass was splashed with blood, and the PMCs on the same car were also constantly strafing, in less than ten seconds, the second truck was hit with thousands of holes, and more than half of the reinforcements on the car were directly killed in place, only a few people on the left side jumped out in panic.

At this time, the M20 had already driven past the No. 2 truck and was about to meet the No. 3 truck.

However, the first M20 did not continue to attack the two trucks in the rear, but directly suppressed them indiscriminately, and accelerated past them at a loss, and then the second M20 followed closely behind, and then tilted towards the third truck and sent a rain of bullets.

The Belgians in the third truck had already jumped down in a panic at the moment, but most of them were just running around, completely unaware that they were running to the top of the place, and a dozen guys who ran along the road, or jumped off the road to the riverbed, were directly shot to the ground, but a few guys who jumped off the road and hid on the roadbed escaped the surprise attack safely.

The second M20 did not continue to attack the fourth truck, and also used suppressive fire to provide cover for the jeep in the rear, and only after the latter drove over to take over the attack did the driver begin to accelerate to chase the first M20.

Although everything happened quickly, this was enough time for the driver of the fourth truck to react to what was going on, so he immediately prepared to reverse and run, but the problem also came, and he was not the only one who panicked.

The bullets crackled, and the driver and the people in the car were equally afraid, and when the driver was about to reverse the car, the people in the car were also jumping down in panic.

The people who jumped from both sides were fine, and those who jumped behind the car became obstacles in reversing and were directly run over by the truck.

And at this time, the worse thing is still behind, because the M20 is too close, the driver is nervous, and directly reverses the car under the roadbed of the road, because of the length and weight of the truck, coupled with the driver's panicked driving, he directly overturned the truck.

The unlucky ones in the car who didn't jump out of the car were also thrown out of the way, plus the car was run over by reversing and crushed to death by overturning, in short, more guys died at the hands of their own people in the fourth truck than by bullets.

Then the two jeeps quickly crossed the messy battlefield, but the third jeep at the back stopped, and the PMCs who were crowded on the car quickly jumped out of the car and began to engage in close combat.

As for those Belgians, the attack just now made them chaotic and couldn't find the north, and now the other party killed directly in the face, some people who had not received combat training at all, the first reaction was to continue to run, they threw away the weapons in their hands, like headless flies, directly on the plains with their heads covered, and some people were still hesitating whether they should fight or surrender, and then they were killed on the spot by the PMCs who were in a state of high tension and alert, On the contrary, those who had been trained were extremely skillful in dropping their weapons, lying on the ground and surrendering with their hands raised.

The fierce battle on the road was naturally heard by François, and the fierce explosions and gunfire made him think that the elite soldiers sent by United Mining had blocked the retreat of the Shadow Company, and the firepower of the French mercenaries was indeed weakening, so François immediately ordered his men to continue to press forward.

With the buildings controlled by the French mercenaries, the smile on François's face was almost uncontrollable, his men had almost controlled almost half of the factory, and the enemy was still retreating, if they didn't want to ensure the safety of these buildings, they couldn't let go of the pursuit, maybe the Shadow Company would have been defeated faster.

However, the only thing that François was curious about was that it seemed that the gunfire on the other side of the road lasted a little short, only ten minutes, and then it was quiet, and he didn't know what kind of heavenly soldiers and generals were sent by United Mining to fight like this.

But he didn't care about contact, after all, the mercenaries would continue to suppress the opponent, in order to expand the encirclement as much as possible, François simply pulled some of the people who were still observing and guarding the periphery to occupy the building, now they have no one to observe the direction of the road at all, and the mercenary wounded on the high ground on the north side are not guarded at all, everyone is lying in the foxhole smoking and chatting, thinking about how to spend the promised generous commission after the battle.

Then, they heard the roar of the approaching engine.

"Ha, I guess those cooked the meal and sent it over!"

"That's right, I'm hungry too!"

Then, everyone got up from the foxhole and looked down the hill with expectant smiles, and then saw two M20s roaring up the hill.

"Shadow Company!"

Seeing the gray uniforms of the armed soldiers on the car, the faces of the wounded instantly turned green, and some people hurriedly wanted to get guns, and then they were stopped by other people, and the opposite side was not a jeep, although the M20 reconnaissance vehicle was very defensive and crotch-pulling, but people had an armor, and ordinary rifles had no effect at all.

Everyone immediately sat down on the spot and raised their hands high, anyway, it seems that the Shadow Company is still humane, and it will not kill the prisoners, so surrender.

As a result, François's high ground that he had spent hundreds of his men to capture was recaptured by the Shadow Company, and he did not know anything about it, and even continued to order his subordinates to continue to attack the factory occupied by the Shadow Company, trying to drive out the opponent in the shortest possible time.

At this point, Hannibal stopped acting, and he simply ordered all his men to retreat, directly abandoning all defensive positions and retreating to the high ground on the south side.

The mercenaries of the factory immediately screamed and began to seize the position, and soon, they took the entire factory area, and then François realized that something was wrong.

"Where's the guys from United Mining?"
