Chapter 4979 The war is coming

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When fighting, you must first preserve yourself as much as possible, and self-preservation relies on fortifications and bunkers.

    Lin Rui asked the troops to set up positions along the dry river bed.

    The front of the infantry squad position is 30 to 100 meters. A squad leader's front of about 100 meters wide can defend a front of 200-250 meters wide.

    The fortifications in the position are generally single or double foxholes. The spacing of single foxholes in open areas is ten meters, and the spacing of double foxholes is twenty meters.  On complex terrain, the intervals are shortened to five meters and ten meters respectively.

    Seize the time to build a shelter or trench.  Generally, it consists of a main position and one or two reserve positions. When organizing firepower distribution, it should be ensured that the rifle can fire accurately from a distance of 300 meters and the anti-tank rocket launcher can fire accurately from a distance of 150 meters.

    Of course, to repel the enemy, bunkers alone are definitely not enough. Firepower is of course more important. The machine gun is the soul of the infantry squad. The firepower of a light machine gun is equivalent to that of a rifle squad.

    Lin Rui and others deployed the few m2 machine guns in their hands as the main firepower point.  The 200-round magazine firepower of these machine guns has a long duration of fire, which is very suitable for blocking enemy charges in defense, but the weight of ten kilograms also makes the machine gunner move significantly slower than the rifleman.

    Therefore, most heavy machine guns must be set up in a position that is as stable as possible and does not require frequent movement, as a firepower machine gun point.

    ????????? Other light machine guns only use 100 rounds of ammunition to increase their mobility so that they can move quickly during combat.

    Lin Rui¡¯s mercenaries are all experts.  What they planned to set up was a standard Western infantry squad defensive fire configuration.

    The rifle is in the middle, and the two machine guns form a cross-blocking fire network on the left and right sides.  The squad leader and fire team leader control the fire of grenade launchers and rifles to block the enemy's approach.  The enemy annihilation zone allows all available firepower to be concentrated in this area in the hope of destroying the enemy.

    A mercenary reported to Lin Ruihui, "We set the firepower point over there. When the enemy moves parallel to the platoon's shooting direction, the squad hits the target from front to back, and then from back to front.

    This is what we did in Afghanistan before, emphasizing the suppression effect of firepower to prevent the enemy from getting close.  In this case, the enemy will not be able to take advantage of their numerical advantage.  "

    Lin Rui nodded, but he did not agree with this method, "This is a standard tactic often used by the US military, but this method has a drawback, which is that it consumes a lot of ammunition.

    We are not a wealthy US military, and we don¡¯t have that much ammunition base for us to squander.  And even if the enemy is suppressed and retreats, he will come back.  "

    "What's your opinion, sir?" the mercenary asked.

    "I have a way to solve this problem. The rifle is in the middle, and the only machine gun is on the left or right side. Emphasis on side-fire and oblique fire, and combine the machine gun's oblique fire and the rifle's direct fire to form a cross-fire net.

    With this method of position construction, although firepower is also believed to be a necessary condition for killing the enemy, it is also believed that firepower alone cannot destroy the enemy.

    The combination of firepower and counterattack without losing any opportunity can achieve the goal. This is what is different from you.  Prevent the enemy from approaching. The enemy will come again after returning. The key is to eliminate him in front of the position.

    The light machine gun exerts its effectiveness on one side. The machine gunner can launch a counterattack with the machine gun at any time, using fierce firepower to hit the enemy's frontal attack formation from the flank or cut off the enemy's rear route in order to completely annihilate it.  Lin Rui nodded.

    "I understand." The mercenary nodded.

    "Just do as I say, this time it's all up to you." Lin Rui patted the mercenary on the shoulder.

    While Lin Rui nervously urged his mercenaries to set up their positions, he also had to contact the local armed forces to understand the current battle situation.

    This time, the Western Sahara local armed forces have made great achievements.  With a small number of people, they successfully delayed and delayed a large number of terrorists.

    But at the same time, their losses were also considerable.

    They have been able to persist until now, which has largely exceeded Lin Rui's expectations.

    But they finally couldn't hold on any longer.

    "Can you hold on for another half hour?" Lin Rui asked.

    ¡°We were blocking their forward troops before, but their follow-up troops are constantly coming up, and we can no longer resist.

    Sorry, Mr. Rick.  We must evacuate.  "A leader of the local armed forces said in a hurry.

    "Okay, you can evacuate." Lin Rui hesitated and nodded.  "General Hassan will thank you for everything you do."

    "What, can't you stand it in front?" Scarface raised his eyes and looked at him.

    "Indeed"They couldn't stand it any longer. Their military strength and weapons were inferior to those of the enemy.  It is rare to be able to hold off the Jihad Alliance for such a long time.

    How are our preparations going?  Lin Rui asked in a low voice.

    "The position has not been completed yet. But I don't think the enemy will come so fast. We may still have one to two hours." Scarface nodded.  "Brothers are all on board now. Boss, what do you think the chances of winning are?"

    "You don't want to hear the truth." Lin Rui held a cigarette in his mouth and gave one to Scarface.  "Anyway, this time is very dangerous."

    "What time is it not dangerous? But we have all been here, haven't we?" Scarface took out a lighter and lit it for Lin Rui, "I can get through this time too."

    Lin Rui nodded, "Are the injuries on your body feeling better?"

    "It's okay, at least it doesn't prevent me from shooting." Scarface smiled.

    "Promise me to calm down later." Lin Rui patted his shoulder, "There are not many who have followed me all the way. I don't want to lose you again."

    "Understood." Scarface nodded, "Leave the most dangerous position to me."

    "I'm afraid this time, it's equally dangerous on both sides." Kuai Ma walked into the temporary command center from the outside, turned around and shouted to the outside, "Raise the shelter over there."

    "How is the situation?" Lin Rui asked him.

    ¡°The flanks are almost ready, the personnel have finished the soil work and are rushing to move ammunition. However, the defense in the middle needs to be strengthened.

    I plan to wait for them to finish and then move to the center position to cooperate.

    There is another team that is almost completed and is making preparations.  Telephone lines have been laid out.

    The communication lines of each position have been connected to the headquarters.  Of course, wireless communication is also ready.  "Kuaimahui reported.

    His forehead was covered with sweat, and the dust and soil on his face washed out gullies.

    "Thank you for your hard work." Lin Rui nodded.  "Maybe we have less than two hours. Concentrate the existing mortars and 107 rocket launchers into the artillery position. Reserve as much ammunition as possible. This is a fierce battle."
