Chapter 351: Fighting, MPRI Clash Head-on
"It's too late."
Near Kruno, Chen Shen patted Lin He's shoulder in the driver's seat, and the latter braked directly to stop, and then asked suspiciously:
"What's too late?"
"Evacuate, it's too late to evacuate."
Chen Shen's face was heavy, and then he continued:
"I found a blind spot. If the other side really set up this rally as a trap, it means that they must have invested a huge cost. β
"If the mission fails, they will inevitably suffer unnecessary losses, and if they want to make up for this loss, their best thing to do is "
"Knock us out at any cost."
Shi Dakai took over Chen Shen's words and continued.
Chen Shen nodded and continued to analyze:
"It's not impossible, they have so many people that they can sacrifice a large number of people to exchange with us."
"Whether these people are dead, injured, or have to leave afterwards, they can afford it and will not shake their foundations in Indonesia."
"If we haven't created enough motivation for them before, it must have been enough after al-Bashir."
"We'd better not leave Kruno, the crowd is our cover."
"Support must also be withdrawn, they may be attacked on the way, we don't have the manpower to try and make mistakes!"
"But that's a slow death."
Shi Dakai interrupted Chen Shen's words, frowned and said:
"Holding on to Kruno can buy us time, but it will only delay the conflict, not eliminate it completely."
"We need police shelter, we need official forces to step in."
"Argus should be contacted immediately and asked to transfer the guys!"
"Bao Qi, you go and get in touch."
Chen Shen replied decisively, and then continued to say to Lin He:
"The car drove to the Kruno Rugby Stadium, where there is civilian activity and can be safely guaranteed for the time being."
"Da Kai, contact Zhang Yang and ask him to prepare the seaplane, and if necessary, we will evacuate from the water."
"Li Gang, check the equipment and get ready for battle!"
"Understood!"
Everyone immediately took action, and Lin He drove the car towards the Kruno Rugby Stadium with one foot of the accelerator, and rushed directly into the parking lot outside the stadium.
At this time, there was a not very formal game going on in the stadium, Chen Shen immediately got out of the car, their outfits unexpectedly attracted everyone's attention, and the police officers who happened to be standing in the distance also walked over, touched the pistol on their waists, and approached the five people vigilantly.
Chen Shen took out the documents that had been prepared a long time ago and showed them, indicating their identities, and the police officer breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to ask:
"Who are you?"
He spoke Indonesian, and Chen Shen could only understand a few words, so he didn't answer at all, but just stuffed the document in his hand into the other party's hand and let him see it for himself.
This document came from the special approval of the Kendari Police Department, although the form is completely different from the ordinary police officer card, but the seal and anti-counterfeiting mark on it are indeed genuine, and after checking and finding no loopholes, the officer's expression is finally completely relaxed.
So, Chen Shen continued to say a few words in simple Indonesian.
"Safety, us, protection."
The police officer nodded slightly, then waved his hand and walked towards the crowd, conveying Chen Shen's meaning.
The crowd quickly calmed downβperhaps not because of the police officer's explanation, but because of the equipment of the Dongfeng Corps.
This thing naturally gives people a sense of security, because it is generally believed that it is basically impossible for someone who can wear this equipment to attack civilians at low end.
The situation stabilized for the time being, and the Eastern Corps was given a brief respite.
Bao Qi had already called Argus and explained the situation to him.
Argus, on the other side, also realized the seriousness of the problem, and he quickly replied that he would send police to Kruno, which gave Chen Shen a sense of security.
ββ
However, this sense of security did not last more than two minutes.
Two minutes later, Bao Qi received another call from Argus.
On the phone, he told everyone about an unexpected situation.
There had just been an explosion in La Bota, near the residence of Rufti where Chen Shen and the others had been before!
This time, the explosion yield was huge, the shock wave destroyed more than a dozen houses, and the number of casualties caused by the explosion instantly exceeded 10 people, and Rufti's family, including two children.
There are no bones left.
Once again, the situation that La Botha had managed to stabilize was thrown into chaos, and the police force was forced to devote themselves to maintaining order.
Because there are already rumors that the explosion was a revenge for the police action, and innocent people were sacrificed!
Damn, the rumors happened before the explosion, what kind of deliberate conspiracy is this??
Obviously, the two sides have not officially met yet, but the air game has already begun.
"The police can't come, at least not anytime soon."
"I'm afraid we can no longer use civilians as cover, they are even more determined than we expected."
"I have to find a place to stay and wait for Bao Qi, is there a suitable cover nearby?"
"Nope!"
Bao Qi replied without hesitation, at this time, he had already raised the drone, and the surrounding environment was unobstructed.
There are no sturdy bunkers to use in the entire Kruno, and the vast majority of the houses here are ordinary brick and wood structures, not to mention possible RPGs, and they may not even be able to carry armor-piercing bullets!
Blindly hiding in it is not to find a cover for yourself, but to find a coffin for yourself.
"Is it okay to be on the water? We were close to the sea and could find fishing boats to go out to sea! β
Lin He asked.
"The fishing boat is too slow, it's just a target."
Shi Dakai immediately denied it, and then said:
"We can only advance into the woods, and in the woods, they may not be able to beat us."
"Yes. Pack your gear and go! β
Chen Shen made a quick decision, and a few minutes later, everyone packed up all their equipment, took all the ammunition they could bring, and set off towards the woods behind the rugby field.
And just as they walked to the edge of the woods, a bullet slammed into the tree beside Chen Shen.
Anti-materiel sniper rifles.
Luckily, the other side also fired in a hurry, and this shot missed the target by a very small margin.
Debris was scattered, Chen Shen subconsciously threw himself forward, and then shouted loudly:
"Number 2! Seek out the enemy! β
"Communication is disrupted!"
Bao Qi replied immediately.
The drone has lost contact and radio communications have been disrupted, not to mention cellular network signals that don't exist in the jungle.
The team was completely incommunicado with the outside world, and at the same time, a sniper in the back seat of a pickup truck not far away let out a regretful curse.
"FUCK, it's just a little bit!"
"Hurry up! They're not stupid! β
"Get out of the car, get out of the car, and search them out!"
The group of five is constantly moving through the dense forest, and without modern means of communication, all they can rely on is the most primitive tools.
With the presence of the forest river, the five men marched faster than the normal rainforest march, and it was this small difference in speed that helped them quickly cross the sparsely vegetated area near the residential area and burrow into the dense forest, without being directly intercepted by the enemy at the edge of the woods.
It stands to reason that after entering the jungle, the opponent should quickly give up the pursuit, after all, it is too difficult to find a team from the rainforest.
But the problem is that Chen Shen and the others did not enter a rainforest at all, but a small forest surrounded by residential areas!
The horizontal and longitudinal distances do not exceed 300 meters, and the range of densely vegetated areas is even only 100 meters.
In this case, it is simply impossible for the other side to give up, because they occupy an advantage in mobility, an advantage in the number of personnel, and even a vision and information advantage from various advanced equipment.
All they need to do is to complete the arming on the periphery, and then send two teams to search over little by little, and drive out the "rat" of the Dongfeng Corps!
Behind them, the footsteps of the enemy through the woods were constantly heard, and they had also entered the woods.
They are not afraid to reveal their position, because the visual range in the dense forest is very low, and it is impossible to go as far as 30 meters, and even if the Dongfeng Corps can judge their approximate location, it is impossible to accurately locate them through many obstacles.
If the Dongfeng Corps wants to ambush, they must put the distance within 15 meters.
And at this distance, the gun is a gamble.
Because no matter how well prepared you are, you can't guarantee that your luck will be so good that all the opponent's team members will appear in the shooting field at the same time, giving you a chance to clear the field with one shot!
The pressure was pulled up again, and listening to the sound of tree branches breaking in the distance, Chen Shen's heart almost couldn't beat.
From the time crossing to the present, he has never fought such an aggrieved battle.
Before the fight started, the opponent had already taken the advantage.
All their support is locked up, all available forces are disabled, communications are cut off, reconnaissance equipment is jammed, there are no heavy weapons, and even the number of personnel is at an absolute disadvantage.
I have to say that the other party's plan is really quite sophisticated.
Chen Shen didn't know if they had been prepared for a long time, and even Lu Futi deliberately released the bait, or if they did accidentally show their tails, but they set up the trap as planned.
But it doesn't matter anymore, because I've really stepped into a trap.
This is not because Chen Shen is "not cautious enough", in fact, if he is really not vigilant enough, the current group of 5 should have died somewhere in Losoni.
It should be said that it is the enemy's experience in this area that is too much.
They had already figured out the Dongfeng Corps and the idea of the north, so they threw out a series of baits that Chen Shen had to swallow, so that no matter how many times Chen Shen chosen, he would still follow the destined path!
Is this tactical?
No, this has risen to the height of "intrigue".
It is worthy of the regular army of MPRI, no matter how much Chen Shen hates and dislikes them, he has to admit that they are indeed the most powerful enemy that the Dongfeng Corps has encountered until now.
Thinking of this, Chen Shen exhaled a long breath, and then said:
"Can't run anymore, look for puddles!"
"We need to expand our field of vision, coordinate with multi-point arming, and widen the firing range as much as possible."
"Stay in place, number 5, go up the trees, provide visibility, but don't shoot."
"The others are on guard according to the 3-corner battle position, don't shoot without my order!"
"The night vision devices switch to thermal imaging mode and calibrate the temperature resolution with each other!"
"Understood!"
Everyone immediately took action, and after continuing to search for more than ten meters, they finally got all their bodies wet with the stagnant water on the ground, and their bare skin was covered with mud.
Immediately afterwards, the team unfolded silently, Lin He quickly climbed to the tree, Li Bang, Bao Qi, and Shi Dakai were on guard in a triangular battle position, while Chen Shen himself advanced in a low posture and directly touched the enemy's position.
He has become completely disconnected from the rest of the people, at a distance of more than 30 meters.
He wants to gamble that he can pass by the other party before the "anti-infrared coating" on his body fails.
Only in this way can you establish a firepower advantage in front and back, and only in this way can you suffocate them in the jungle with less and more! ββ
And it turns out that Chen Shen's choice is extremely correct.
Two minutes later, a few meters away from Chen Shen, the MPRI members who were searching for Chen Shen missed it.
He didn't notice Chen Shen lying on the ground, but Chen Shen saw him through the gaps in the leaves.
The opponent moves extremely slowly, which is a very typical Z-shaped reconnaissance.
There was still a firepower group on guard more than ten meters behind him, and Chen Shen wanted to open fire, but he had no chance at all.
He could only continue to wait.
Immediately afterwards, as the opposing reconnaissance team confirmed safety, MPRI's firepower team also began to advance alternately.
When Chen Shen saw the equipment on their bodies, his heart was almost half cold.
This is the regular army of MPRI.
They are wearing state-of-the-art ISPC lightweight body armor β or more accurately, a bulletproof load-bearing platform.
Less than 100,000 units had been produced in 2011, making it lighter and more versatile than previous Interceptors, making it ideal for jungle warfare.
The other party was obviously prepared, and their weapons were also carefully chosen.
The M249 Para machine gun, with a body length of just under 900 mm, is flexible and delivers unmatched precision in dense forests.
And the night vision device on their heads may be some kind of experimental model, Chen Shen has never even seen it.
One of the members of the fire team carried a huge antenna behind him, and was obviously tasked with electronic suppression.
Advanced, powerful.
This was Chen Shen's first impression after seeing them.
As soon as this team appeared, people couldn't help but feel afraid, and Chen Shen was even hesitating whether to shoot or not.
ββ
It's like you're about to cross a cliff, and even if you know that if you don't cross it, you'll die, but you can't help but hesitate
Chen Shen blinked twice, and then, he slowly moved his body and raised the HK416 in his hand.
At one point, one of the enemies' faces turned to Chen Shen's crosshairs, and then the trigger was pulled.
"Bang!"
The enemy's head exploded immediately, and the armor-piercing projectile pierced the man's spine without hindrance, and blood gushed out.
Chen Shen didn't hesitate, he immediately turned the muzzle of his gun, pointed in the direction that had locked his gunfire in less than a second, and was aiming at the second enemy who was trying to fire!
"Bang bang-"
Continuous gunshots rang out, and Chen Shen had switched to fully automatic mode.
At this point, he finally caught the first, and possibly the only mistake, made by the enemy.
They really didn't choose the wrong body armor, not to mention the ISPC blocking the HK416 armor-piercing bullet, even the 7.62Γ51mm armor-piercing bullet can block it.
However, the problem is that in order to achieve the goal of weight reduction, the protection area of ISPC has shrunk.
It was such a slight gap that allowed Chen Shen's bullet to drill into the enemy's flank, and the opponent's bullet hit his frontal bulletproof plate.
Chen Shen was like a heavy hammer, but he tried his best to stabilize his body and did not fall to the ground.
The third gun had already locked his position.
The gunshots had already sounded, and the opponent's first bullet was aimed at Chen Shen's chest.
But after discovering that the bullet could not penetrate the body armor, the enemy had already raised the muzzle of the gun by a few points with recoil.
This action only takes half a second to complete.
And Chen Shen's direction at this time was still 60 degrees away from him.
Chen Shen had to complete a series of actions of turning, aiming, and firing in order to get ahead of the opponent and send the bullet into his head.
And this, it is almost impossible
