The bandits' attack on the transport team has lasted for twenty minutes.

The originally silky desert was now covered with various craters, and the wreckage of various vehicles and corpses were spread out layer by layer.

Compared with when the two sides just met, the fighting scene at this moment was much more brutal, but the charge and defense were also not as intense as they were at the beginning.

This kind of attack war, which focuses on annihilation and defense, is not like positional war, which will become more and more anxious after the exchange of fire. Instead, the most powerful firepower will be used from the beginning. As the ammunition and personnel are consumed, the scene will become more and more intense.

getting smaller and smaller.

At this time, the artillery fire from the bandits' side was still continuously covering the transport team. Above the sand dunes in the distance, a military main battle tank had now turned into a pile of scrap metal and was burning.

Just after the three main battle tanks of the military crossed the sand dunes arrogantly, they were hit by direct cannon fire, eventually causing one to be damaged and the other two to retreat in despair.

The firepower of the transport team was fierce, but the amount of ammunition was limited. Especially under the cover of artillery fire, the armored vehicles and other military vehicles in the team began to be damaged one after another. The infantry was also suppressed by the artillery fire and did not dare to show up. They were completely relying on

The outermost tanks carried out artillery fire suppression, but after losing the support of armored vehicles and infantry, the firepower network of the transport team was much weaker. The gangster team approached again and again, and was repulsed again and again, but after each charge, the distance

The distance between the transport teams is getting closer and closer.

What's even more deadly is that because the transport team adopted a positional warfare strategy, the attacking bandits had already surrounded them in all directions and carried out fire strikes.

"Boom!"

A tank fired a shell, destroying a pickup truck in the distance. The commander also picked up the microphone and said quickly: "Command center, this is the No. 3 tank, and the ammunition reserve is less than 1%.

Twenty-five!”

"Attention all tanks! Reduce fire coverage and carry out precise strikes!" The commander picked up the microphone and responded quickly.

At this time, the ammunition capacity of the tanks in the team had dropped below ten, and the bandits were still rushing forward despite suffering a large number of casualties. In this kind of plain battle without bunkers, the bandits

They are completely using human lives to push forward.

The three-kilometer distance between the two sides has now been shortened to about one kilometer. With most of the vehicles destroyed, the bandits have begun to use skirmishers to pull forward and continue to use smoke screens to create visual bunkers.

For heavy firepower like tanks, it is not cost-effective to use artillery shells to attack ordinary soldiers, and the range of the transport team's light machine guns and rifles makes it difficult to accurately hit enemies one kilometer away. Only the heavy machine guns of the land fortress are performing

Suppression, but in the face of bandits coming from all directions, two heavy machine guns seemed unable to achieve full suppression.

In the land fortress vehicle, the deputy battalion commander of the armored battalion stood in the cockpit, holding a telescope and constantly observing the situation in the smoke in the distance. He found that a bandit appeared with an RPG launcher on his back. He picked up the microphone and said: "Command

Center! The enemy at 12 o'clock is moving forward with a rocket launcher!"

The commander responded quickly: "Roger! The heavy machine gun is ready to provide fire suppression, we can't let them get closer!"

Seeing that the commander was still adopting the strategy of holding on, the deputy battalion commander responded anxiously: "Sir! We can't stay any longer! We are an armored force, and our advantage lies in our powerful armor and mobility capabilities! But now everyone is at the original position.

If the ground is firmly entrenched, except for our firepower advantage, our other advantages will not be able to be used at all!"

The commander replied quickly: "Don't panic! We are only in need of tank shells now, but other firepower is still sufficient. With the enemy's equipment, even if they get close, they will not pose a threat to us!"

"Sir! Our mission is to escort the equipment, not to exterminate the bandits! Now that they have surrounded us and are advancing forward, we will inevitably encounter mortar attacks. Since we cannot move forward, the best thing we should do is to retreat.

Otherwise, when the enemy closes to us to a distance of 500 meters, equipment such as rockets and grenades will come into play! Our situation will definitely become more difficult by then!"

The deputy battalion commander saw that the commander was still preparing to adopt a defensive strategy at this time, and said solemnly: "At present, the enemy has completed the encirclement of us, but it is only an infantry encirclement, which does not pose any threat to us, but if we give them enough

Time, these guys will definitely mobilize the artillery distribution, and then we will be completely passive! If they are allowed to lay anti-tank mines around, then we will not even have a chance to retreat! What these guys are doing is completely life-threatening.

The way of fighting consumes our firepower at the cost of human life. For us, killing ten enemies is not a gain, but even if one more person is sacrificed, it is a loss!"

The commander responded stubbornly: "Do you think I don't know how to retreat? But our mission is to escort the transport team to the official road. We can only move forward but not retreat. If we leave now, we will be deserters!"

"If we don't leave, we are just a group of martyrs! We are a group of martyrs who have lost their lives and failed to complete the mission!" the deputy battalion commander responded emotionally: "We are retreating now, only returning to the military base, and the support troops are already on the way.

We're on the road here. If we retreat, we can reduce casualties, but these guys don't dare to drag us down all the time! I don't think this is desertion, but a tactical retreat. Everything we do is to complete the mission!

I don’t believe you don’t know what this batch of supplies means to the frontline war effort!”

The commander held the transmitter and saw the smoke advancing again on the desert outside. He tried to adjust his breathing: "All combat units listen to my order and prepare to retreat in an orderly manner! The tank platoon and company headquarters retreated first.

Tear open the evacuation route!”

"Buzz!"

After the commander finished speaking, four tanks and two armored vehicles broke away from the team and began to retreat backwards.

Three kilometers away, behind the sand dunes, a Jing's agent who was sent to take command saw a tank starting to move backwards. His eyes lit up: "These guys have been fooled and are ready to launch the second plan!"

The bandit on the side heard the words and picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand: "I want to jump on the idea, prepare the grenade, follow my orders!"

After the four tanks of the transport team were sent out to clear the way, they formed a battle formation and began to march in the direction of evacuation.

"Boom-boom-boom!"

Just as these tanks were driving in front of a small sand dune, dozens of bandits behind them controlled grenades and began to fire continuously in the direction of the tanks.
Chapter completed!
