Chapter 139: No Plan Survives the Starting Line!

The Portuguese paratrooper who took the lead fell to the ground instantly after the gunshot, and then began to struggle in pain, his squad leader and his comrades immediately set up their rifles and began to strafe at the dirt wall indiscriminately, so as to suppress the fire, and then the two people dragged the fallen paratrooper back behind the bunker with both hands and feet.

The unlucky man was hit in the neck by a bullet, and the blood rushed out like a fountain, and the medical soldiers tried desperately to treat him, but in the end he died of his injuries in this unknown forest in Angola.

The fact that one of your own men was killed before the battle had even fully begun undoubtedly cast a shadow over the entire raid, but the battle plan did not stop when one person fell.

While treating the wounded, the other paratroopers had already begun to advance into the village, as they had already been shot, and the paratroopers threw smoke grenades to block the enemy's view of the village, and then began to break into the village in battle formation.

They were already familiar with the combat mission of breaking through the sweep, so as soon as they entered the village, the various combat groups rushed towards their respective objectives.

A combat team surrounded a small courtyard, and then the spearhead kicked the wooden door first, and then the mine set up behind the door was detonated, and the spearhead and the three teammates behind him collapsed nine times the fragments and debris, although not fatal, but at least the battle could not continue to participate.

Several of the wounded were immediately evacuated, and the infantry had already set up a field ambulance station to deal with the wounded, and the military doctor wearing the red cross mark looked at the few wounded who had been sent in less than ten minutes before the start of the battle, and he glanced at the few medical supplies and plasma, and could only silently pray that everything would go well.

After witnessing the tragic scene of their comrades, the remaining paratroopers became more and more vigilant, and they always had to observe before kicking the door, and the scorn seemed to be just an example, because the paratroopers searched several houses after that, but did not encounter any spooky mines, and there was no expected resistance.

"Where are these?"

"Did they all run away?"

And when a team of paratroopers who entered the courtyard and whispered finished checking the room and were about to leave, they had just checked the room where there was no one but suddenly a muzzle of a gun sticked, and then a row of bullets hit directly behind these unsuspecting paratroopers, and the mercenaries in the room turned their heads and went into the inner room without the slightest hesitation after shooting the bullets in their hands.

Other soldiers who heard the gunfire quickly came to reinforce them, only to see two bodies and four wounded on the ground, and after hearing that there was something wrong with the room, seven or eight paratroopers fired hundreds of shots into the room and threw seven or eight grenades, blowing up most of the room before the fire stopped.

The paratroopers then inspected the ruins, but found no bodies, so they had no choice but to blow up the house with grenades again to prevent anything strange from popping up.

And the same team of paratroopers, after evacuating the wounded, they began to check the other yard again, first to make sure that there was no thunder at the gate, and then the paratroopers kicked open the gate and fired at the house, and then a sharp soldier cautiously pushed open the door, looked at the mess in the room and immediately beckoned his teammates to come closer, and he himself stepped into the room, and then he heard a click.

"!"

The spearhead only had time to spit out half a swear word, and then the anti-infantry mine buried in the room was activated, and then, the shrapnel blew the opponent's entire leg to pieces, and the remaining half of his body was also blasted out of the room and smashed to the ground.

"Damn it!"

The commander of the paratrooper company, who was only in the rear, listened to the explosions and scattered gunfire in the village from time to time, and angrily smashed his fist on the tree, and his men had already been killed and wounded six times before they had completed their scheduled work, and the number of troops was reduced by almost one squad.

The Portuguese paratroopers, as the elite, naturally could not continue to stumble, they quickly adjusted their playing style, gave up kicking the door, and directly began to use grenades to break the door, which can detonate the mines, but the number of grenades carried by the soldiers is limited, after clearing more than a dozen yards, the paratroopers' grenades have been exhausted, and there are more yards waiting for them next.

After all, it is a large village with thousands of people, and the length of the whole village is nearly 3,000 meters from east to west, and almost 1,000 meters from north to south.

However, the good news is not without the fact that the paratroopers did not suffer any casualties after using grenades to break the door, and even the enemy attacks stopped, so as long as this progress continues, they will be able to complete the mission objectives in less than half a day.

So the paratroopers could only start to scavenge the available things again, and also began to collect all the explosives from the infantry grenades, and then, these paratroopers showed their talents, some found wood as a battering ram to break the door, and some people tied explosives to sticks as blasting canisters, in short, all kinds of things added up, but greatly accelerated their progress, and soon the two areas of AB were cleared by the paratroopers, and during this period, they only added two minor wounded.

But no one is optimistic about this anymore, because the price of clearing the AB area is that they have used up almost all the explosives, whether it is the grenade explosives of the paratroopers, or the infantry, and the only ones that can still explode are the two 60mm mortars carried by the infantry!

Anyway, the cleanup had to continue, and the paratroopers guessed that the enemy might have dug a secret passage in the room to hide himself, and that they had to go on in order to destroy Zabi's guerrillas.

After a short rest, the paratroopers who had completed their rotation began to clean up again, because of the scarcity of explosives, they did not dare to use grenades uncontrollably, so they had to find a way to either climb over the wall or use wooden battering rams, and then the situation began to take a turn for the worse again.

A paratrooper had just climbed the wall and before he could see if there was anyone in the room, the bullet broke through the window and beckoned him, and his teammates who heard the gunfire immediately began to throw grenades, and after the explosion bravely tried to rush up to deal with the opponent, but when they rushed into the room, they saw two other smoking grenades, which had just been thrown from the inside of the room.

Not only in the room, but also the paratroopers moving along the village path were surprised to find that bullets were being fired at them from all the dark corners, and the whole street, no, the whole village, seemed to come to life!
