"Our army is unimpeded, unimpeded!"

Shepard, who has returned to the battlefield again, is now complacent, for the first time he has such a solid and reliable support, in addition to countless younger brothers for him to call on, and the enemy has no supplies, and the organization and dispatch are also in chaos, so won't victory be within reach?

With this in mind, the outflanking troops marched with great speed, and then Shepard ran headlong into the SPLM troops, who were determined to stop them with a certain death.

The Black Uncles blocked the road with a large number of burning vehicle wreckage, and then used mortars to fire shells at the road, Shepard ordered the tanks to drive down the road, and when they were about to pass through the field, they found that the field on the right side of the road was full of mud, so the two Shermans fell into the mud sadly, and even one car turned off due to improper operation.

The left side of the road is a hill, and it is very steep, if you want to go up, you have to take a detour, so obviously the number of firepower has an advantage, but Shepard and the people are beaten to the dust, Uncle Black's mortars continue to fall around the tanks and armored vehicles, and the armor clanged with fragments.

The Black Uncles, who had been prepared, had already dug fortifications on the roads and in the fields, and had also set up heavy machine guns, and Shepard's side could not let the Congolese troops launch an attack, and those infantry were live targets for machine guns in the uncovered fields.

That is, the black uncles did not have any anti-tank weapons in their hands, and if there was an anti-tank gun, Shepard's tank troops would have to die a lot of people.

After half an hour of being blocked, the whole team finally woke up from its state of confusion, and the tanks trapped on the road remained in place and continued to shell the enemy's positions, while the vulnerable armored vehicles were ordered by Shepard to retreat further away and use the 90mm guns on the armored vehicles to support the attack.

Shepard then sent the Congolese troops through the mud that could drown people's thighs and detoured back to Uncle Black's right flank, and in this way, the SPLM troops who were guarding the positions fought tenaciously to the end, even tying themselves to the machine guns with ropes, firing the last bullet and dying with the Congolese soldiers with grenades.

However, in any case, since it took a full four hours for this attacking force, which had 18 lightly armored trucks and a larger number of trucks and supply vehicles, to open the road, the SPLM troops on the front line had retreated a full 30 kilometers in these four hours, and the depth of the entire Uige Province was only 100 kilometers.

And Shepard counted on the so-called chaos of the army, but did not actually appear, most of these SPLM troops reinforced a lot of Cuban instructors, after receiving a clear order to retreat, they quickly quelled the riot, and the commander of the operation, Lieutenant Colonel Marco, also announced to the whole army that he was in the rear of the army and did not go, this operation immediately stabilized the morale of the SPLM troops, and then, Lieutenant Colonel Marko transferred his elite forces at hand, and handed over to them all the fuel and vehicles that could be used. Let this elite force be responsible for opening the retreat route.

And the commander of this unit was none other than Major García, a Cuban paratrooper.

Although Shepard had already asked Hannibal to do things on the road, such as laying mines and changing street signs, the Cuban paratroopers were not in vain, they had accurate maps in their hands, and changing street signs and road signs did not help at all, and even the Cuban paratroopers were very quick to replace new street signs with the tools at hand.

As for those mines, because there were not many of them, they were quickly cleared by the Cuban paratroopers, and Major Garcia also set up an ambush, he knew that Hannibal would definitely have to do something to the retreat of the large army, so he deliberately showed the flaws, and when Hannibal entered the ambush circle, he gave him a hard time, so the black uncles who were responsible for exploring the road in front were unlucky, and six cars were destroyed, and the black uncles in the cars were either killed on the spot or captured alive, and fortunately, the drivers selected by Shepard were all good hands, In the face of an ambush, these guys were able to play beyond their performance to allow the mercenaries in the back of the team to lose anything. z.br>

Suffering such a heavy loss, Hannibal did not dare to act rashly, after all, there were not many black uncles who could be substitutes for the dead ghosts, and more than half of them were killed by a round of ambushes by the Cubans, and if the rest were dead, then take over

Those who come to be beaten, it's their turn!

Hannibal could only gather his men and prepare to join Shepard at the junction of the provinces of Uige and Bengo further south, and according to the progress of both sides, Shepard could arrive faster, as soon as the armored troops arrived, the pocket could be completely killed, and those SPLM troops who did not run away would also be annihilated.

Both sides know that in this case, the comparison is to see who is fast, and they are racing against time, but good luck seems to be no longer in Shepard's favor, after encountering Uncle Black's resistance, he was extremely unlucky to encounter a flash flood, although the flood did not wash away the road, but turned the already not very strong road into a mud pond, not to mention the tank, ordinary people have to swim like a toad.

Unlike the Shadow Company, which was in full condition, the SPLM troops at this moment demonstrated the style and quality of a competent army, abandoning all burdens that had dragged them down, carrying only weapons and emergency rations, pooling fuel for the vehicles carrying the wounded, and driving on two legs for those who were not injured, officers and soldiers.

And Colonel Marco even had the time to set up a few small ambush pockets, waiting for the SLF troops under the command of Agent Wilson, who were chasing behind, to chase after him.

As for Hannibal, it was even more unlucky, he and all the combat troops at hand reluctantly used the weapons sent by seaplanes to build a defensive line, trying to intercept the retreating SPLM troops, but this improvised defense line was not a permanent fortification like an airfield, the Cuban paratroopers under the cover of heavy mortars, launched a charge to crush the defense designed by Hannibal, at that time the T3485 tank was not even more than 300 meters away from Hannibal, and the contractors' equipment advantages could not be used at all, Coupled with the fact that the other troops were in trouble, the Shadow Company P-men once again used their excellent escape skills to complete the retreat before the Cuban tanks could reach their faces.

So, next, the brigade of the People's Liberation Army easily completed the retreat, and in the end, only less than a hundred remnants of the army were trapped in the encirclement.
