"These Americans are so fast!"

Malashenko, who jumped out of the truck, smiled disdainfully as he looked at the huge cement hangar that was like bread rising from the ground three kilometers away.

"So are we going to attack?"

A tall black officer in camouflage stood beside him, looked into the distance with a telescope, and asked.

"Of course, how can a mere hundred or so mercenaries be able to stop the attack of our three infantry companies!"

Malashenko put down the binoculars in his hand, then raised his right hand and stuffed it into his mouth, and after a whistle, the truck parked behind him lowered the baffle in unison, and then a group of heavily armed soldiers jumped out of the truck.

"Tell all the commanders to come to me, we're going to take the airport in one day!"

Soon a dozen black officers and more Soviet and Cuban bus officers arrived, gathered in front of the improvised military map hung on the side of the carriage, quietly waiting for Captain Malashenko's orders. Chinese Net

"I just went to the high ground to take a look, the Portuguese airfield is very large, so our opponent may not have enough people to guard here, so, my plan is three companies, all pressed up, we will drive the enemy out in one go, as long as the airfield is captured, the transport plane can send another infantry battalion over tonight!"

"Well, here's the plan!"

Captain Malashenko tapped on the improvised map and said.

"First Company, along the road on the south side of the airport, maneuver to the left side to attack, your task is to seize the first runway, the second runway and the hangar on the southwest side, after completing the task, the whole company continues to move forward, and finally take the three hangars on the north side of the runway, and then hold the defensive line!"

"Second Company, you attack along the right side, the hangar on the southeast side, and the hangar on the side of the third and fourth runways, are handed over to you, after taking the hangar of the third and fourth runways, you advance the defensive line to a position of 100 meters of the parallel defense line of the company, do not cross the runway!"

"Third Company, you go directly north along the road, go around to the east side of the airport, the buildings there *** give you, after cleaning the building complex, you follow the direction of the north side of the third and fourth runways, take down the hangar there, and then stick to it, and wait until the first and second companies have all completed their tasks, and all the personnel will press towards the next three hangars, understand?"

Captain Malashenko, as a carefully selected elite of the Airborne Army, didn't bother to do any firepower testing at all, he 100% believed in the intelligence from the KGB, since his side had the advantage in personnel and firepower, then put it all in one breath and take the position with an attack that did not give the enemy a breather!

After assigning the task, Captain Malashenko returned to the high ground just now, he could see a figure moving at the top of the hangar, and he was sure that the other side could see him, but unfortunately, there was no heavy firepower on either side, so everyone could stand on a high place and observe each other unscrupulously, otherwise, in less than a few minutes, the positions of both sides would be covered by heavy fire.

After receiving the order, Captain Malashenko's men immediately began to maneuver, the first and second companies quickly broke away from the convoy and rushed to their attack point on foot under the cover of the terrain, while the third company returned to the truck, they were still several kilometers away from the attack point, and they could not catch up with the progress of the first and second companies on foot!

And the movement of the People's Movement was naturally also seen by Hannibal, because of the limited troops, he did not do any tricks, and directly let the three combat detachments use the hangar on the outside of the runway and the surrounding fortifications as a defensive line, these are more than ten meters high, and the outer wall can even be a meter behind the heavy cement hangar is very suitable for serving as a defensive support point, and there are even underground passages between each of them.

"Come on, let's see who dies first today!"

At 1130 hours, three companies of Malashenko maneuvered to their offensive positions, and after a radio announcement, a flare was raised from Malashenko's position, after which three companies immediately began to attack.

The 1st Motorized Company, located southwest of the airfield, was the one that made the most rapid progress, as the starting point of their attack was less than 1,500 metres from the runway.

After receiving the order to attack, a platoon of sharp knives set off first, three

The infantry squad began to advance in turn on a full 200-meter front, the distance between each squad was about 100 meters, and after each 100-meter advance, they would rotate the order, and on both sides of the first row, there were two and three rows, and the battle line after the entire motorized company was deployed was close to 700 meters, and this distance was enough to surround the three hangars in front of them.

"Everyone, pay attention, save bullets as much as possible, and shoot accurately!"

The commander of the butter detachment cautiously poked out half of his head on the top of the hangar and looked outside, the position of his detachment was not very good, because the terrain outside, there were many places that could be hidden, but fortunately, there were several tall oil tanks on the west side of the hangar that could overlook most of the war zone, so he placed half of the snipers of his detachment there.

Everyone was holding their breath at the moment, quietly waiting for the first shot to fire.

As soon as the SPLM's infantry approached a position about 500 meters outside the defensive line, the Shadow Company snipers on the tank began to fire freely, with the blessing of tripods and high-powered optical sights, the six snipers knocked out three targets in the first round of shooting.

The sudden sound of gunfire shocked the attacking SPM infantry, and then everyone saw the three companions fall silently, but because they did not see the direction of the bullets, the SPLM soldiers did not shoot blindly, but under the leadership of the Cuban instructor, they began to constantly use the surrounding terrain to maneuver to attract sniper teams on the oil tanks to shoot.

And the snipers will not let go of those who show their heads, and at a distance of 600 to 700 meters, the snipers of the Shadow Company fired three rounds, and once again knocked out four slow Anren Movement soldiers.

Then, the SPLM finally determined the location of the sniper.

"They're on the oil tank to the west!"

"Suppress the shot!"

The machine gunners who served as fire support points in the squad immediately set up their RPD machine guns and began to tilt their fire in the direction of the tanks, while the remaining infantry took advantage of this to start maneuvering again, trying to rush to the edge of the airfield in one go.

And when they were less than two hundred meters away from the airport, several thuds suddenly sounded outside the airport.

"Grenades! Spread out!"

The Soviet instructor, who was very familiar with the voice, immediately shouted another loud warning, but it was too late, and several lines immediately exploded in the attack queue.
