Another mercenary fired a rocket at the tank that was charging straight towards him.
But this mercenary¡¯s luck is not as good as the first two companions. A machine gun fired from the side exploded next to him. The blast of air blew the soldier away like a broken rag doll, and then he fell down again. It looked like there was no sign of life at all.
And the chariot that hit him drove forward a short distance. Until it received another anti-tank rocket, it stopped completely and leaned to the side without moving.
After a while, the hatch at the back was opened by the chariot soldiers inside. Several Orumi Federation chariot crew members jumped out of the smoke-filled vehicle and staggered towards the back to escape.
But they were soon mowed down by machine guns on the mercenary position. The tanks in front were destroyed one after another, and several tanks following behind hesitated, turned around with great effort on the spot, and drove away down the slope with a rumble, intending to break out of the encirclement in a different direction.
But their U-turn made it easier for General Hassan's troops, who had two only anti-tank guns not far away. It is the oldest Soviet 100mm anti-tank smoothbore gun.
When a 40mm rocket launcher hits an armored vehicle, sometimes it fails to destroy it with one shot. But this 100mm smoothbore cannon is very powerful. As long as it hits, it is really accurate.
Armored vehicles could not run fast on a position full of obstacles, and several wheeled armored vehicles were destroyed almost continuously. The Orumi federal army had no choice but to charge with infantry.
"Machine gun fire! The enemy is about to rush into a row of positions. Shoot these bastards down!" General Hassan held a pistol and loudly commanded his troops. His troops may not be as capable as these mercenaries, but they are well equipped.
After all, General Hassan¡¯s boss is Aladdin, a man who once claimed to be the man who unified Africa¡¯s black market arms trade.
The firepower network composed of a large number of machine guns effectively blocked the enemy. Following behind was the mortar company responsible for infantry support. They also occupied a suitable shooting position and fired shells one after another into the position. ,
After the mortar was fired, the whistling shells quickly fell down like white smoke tails, and the dirt slope was engulfed by the smoke in a short time. The Orumi federal army's machine guns were also firing, and with a clicking sound, chains of fire swept past.
But after all, the mercenaries and Moroccan militiamen all had positions to rely on. Although they were temporarily constructed, many bunkers suffered heavy losses under repeated attacks. But it is still stronger than the Orumi Federal Army.
The 2nd Battalion of the Orumi Federal Army came to support the 3rd Battalion, but was surrounded halfway. Under enemy machine gun and artillery fire, casualties increased rapidly.
At this time, Kuai Ma also came up with the mercenaries. The mercenary troops' multiple 7.62mm machine guns were raging towards the enemy, trying desperately to intercept them from the flanks. Completely disrupted the German army's build-up.
It makes it impossible for them to devote their subsequent troops to the second wave of impact, so that they cannot form a threatening breakout offensive. General Hassan's troops withstood these enemy forces from the front, and the mercenaries also supported them from the side with rifles and grenades.
With several armored vehicles destroyed, the 2nd Battalion of the Orumi Federal Army fell into complete passivity. Grenade fragments flew horizontally, and dense rain of bullets rained down.
The upward charge was stubbornly blocked from the front and sides. The second wave of charging troops behind was bombarded by artillery fire and could not be replenished for a while.
The soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of the Orumi Federation who rushed up finally couldn't hold on anymore. They finally stopped their forced breakout and wanted to stay in place and wait for other reinforcements.
The charging speed of Kuai Ma and others was also much slower. Every ten meters they advanced, they stopped to occupy the position and fired to cover the next group of troops to continue charging. Over and over again, they rushed towards the top of the slope step by step.
General Hassan set up a crossfire net behind the slope to prevent enemy reinforcements from arriving. The soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of the Orumi Federal Army began to fight less and less. The battle only lasted for more than an hour, and their casualties exceeded 60%.
They were originally reinforcements, but now they are waiting for others to rescue them. What's even worse is that the captain was killed and the armored vehicles were destroyed, causing their morale to be severely damaged.
Most of the Orumi Federal Army's bullets are almost gone, but the supply troops transporting ammunition behind them are temporarily unable to rush forward due to the enemy's artillery fire blockade. Watching the enemy approaching the position step by step, there is nothing they can do. This feeling is simply Just despair.
"Boss, we have completely surrounded them. Do you want to take them down in one go?" Kuai Ma contacted Lin Rui via radio.
Lin Rui sat at the command post and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "No, don't worry yet. The Orumi Federal Army will definitely send reinforcements.Let's set up a perimeter to support them. "
"Surround the place for reinforcements?" Kuai Ma nodded, "How to surround and fight?"
"You surround us and let Hassan's people fight. They have infantry support weapons and rocket launchers. As long as you can trap this enemy force, they will be able to use their hands to deal with enemy reinforcements. And we will not be idle either." Rui smiled.
"Boss, what are your plans?" Kuai Ma asked.
"What is false is real, what is true is false. Now the enemy's attention has been attracted to us, and the only thing they care about now is how to rescue the 2nd Battalion. So all their attention will be focused on Area C.
In the meantime, we can find something to do for them in Area A. Lin Rui said slowly. "They want to save the 2nd Battalion, but what I want is to eat their other troops."
As long as you gather around to support us, the fight will be lively. They won't notice our actions. "
"Boss, what are you going to do?" Kuai Ma asked.
"Now when you are fighting lively. I will take the reconnaissance platoon over and find out the location of their artillery positions. Then report the location to General Hassan's artillery camp." Lin Rui said in a deep voice, "This time I will strike. Decide the outcome.¡±
Kuai Ma immediately understood what he meant. The 2nd Battalion surrounded the enemy and concentrated its efforts to annihilate other enemy troops who came to rescue. Such tactics of encirclement and reinforcements are easily exposed. If the enemy wants to change this situation, they must use their artillery power to provide fire cover.
Lin Rui led a small team and took the opportunity to find out the location of the enemy artillery. And reported the location of the enemy's artillery positions to General Hassan's artillery battalion.
If you are fully prepared and have accurate coordinates provided by the investigation unit. General Hassan's artillery battalion will be able to annihilate the enemy's artillery in one fell swoop.
In such a firefight, neither side had armed helicopters. As long as one of the parties loses its artillery support, it means losing its heavy weapons support. The battle situation will become very passive.
Lin Rui¡¯s statement that one strike determines the outcome is actually not an exaggeration at all.
