What I observed was that the situation was developing to one side, and the two sides were moving very quickly. The major did not organize a good firepower, and did not rely on the cooperation and proficiency of the soldiers to exert a suppressive effect. It seemed that they had been injected with stimulant drugs.
It's not the major's team, but the enemy's side.
Relying on the physical fitness and strength beyond ordinary people, the heavy machine gun can be used flexibly in the hands of the enemy, and the firepower is very fierce. The temperature is cold, and both sides do not need to consider the problem of overheating of the barrel. The shooter only needs to aim at the target and press down.
The trigger is enough. But ordinary soldiers are at a disadvantage in this regard. The recoil is greatly offset by the structural design of the gun body, but the numbness accumulated from long-term shooting still affects the accuracy and firepower of the heavy machine gun. p>
And in the eyes of all the operators, the weight of the heavy machine gun itself is not something that cannot be lifted. They have good mobility, and with their excellent load-bearing capacity, they can carry far more ammunition than the major.
Since the weapons were fired, there seems to be no sign of stopping. The major was suppressed very hard, which may be one of the important factors.
The tough trunks of ancient trees have little resistance to heavy machine gun bullets designed to deal with hard rock shelters. One or two bullets hit the trunk, which is fine, only a few big craters appear. But under the firepower of a series of heavy machine gun bullets
Below, in the gentle woods, there is no obvious terrain gap, and everything seems to be unable to resist the steel torrent of heavy firepower weapons. There is no need to hide one's figure anymore, and there is no need to search for the enemy's position. When the major's team is completely exposed
In the enemy's field of vision, when the firepower of the two sides was completely spread out, the ancient tree standing silently in the middle became the earliest victim.
The simplest method of propulsion was adopted. The number of heavy firepower weapons and various types of bombs on the enemy's side was obviously much greater than that on the Major's side. They could steadily rely on the damage of bullets and explosions to force the Major's team to resist waves.
The attack. The trunk of the ancient tree, which served as everyone's cover, also looked a little pale and weak at this time. It was attacked by several heavy machine guns, and it only lasted less than a few seconds. Steel was thrown at a fixed point with countdown.
Both the enemy and the veterans on Major Barron's side are very good at shell bombs and other high-power explosives. Compared with some of the irregular armies and personnel Cassia has seen before, the accuracy of the throwing is impressive.
The actual effect is much better.
It is too dangerous to stay behind a big tree now. If you don't change your position in turn, if the enemy notices it, you may be greeted by a huge number of bombs flying from different directions, as well as heavy machine guns that turn their muzzles and point here. Due to the limitations of ammunition and personnel, the situation on Major Barron's side is very bad. The remaining captain and major are also under great pressure. All important firepower points in the team are under their control, barely delaying the team a little.
time to retreat. However, in this case, they themselves were also greatly restricted. The originally discussed plan was almost not implemented due to the contrast in the actual battle.
The general attack is as the enemy thinks. It is of course better to rely on soldiers and a few captains to delay the enemy head-on and form a stalemate. Only then will they have sufficient time and opportunity to cut in from the flanks and rely on their own strength to attack.
Tear apart the enemy's ranks.
But now the situation is reversed. Major Barron's team has shrunk into a ball. The captains who had been prepared on the periphery of the team in advance had to temporarily abandon their plans due to the deterioration of the situation and rush back to support Major Barron and his team.
At this time, without someone who can move flexibly, the passive situation seems to only become more passive.
The enemy has gained an advantage. The tight team is spreading out in a fan-shaped shape on both sides. Relying on fire suppression, it gradually forms an encirclement network around them, achieving the situation they want to see. The enemy is carrying a lot of ammunition, and they don't use it at all.
I am worried that the consumption of ammunition will lead to a reduction in firepower. This is indeed something that Major Barron cannot compare with.
After coming out of the volcano base, due to signal interference and blockade, the teams were unable to contact each other, and the base could not be notified. Basic supplies could not be transported by airship, the personnel were reduced, the status declined, and many aspects were lost.
To add. In addition to the things on the dead enemies, the only things you can find are small animals that can be found in some decayed tree holes or caves if you are lucky.
Ammunition consumption is a major factor that Major Barron considers. The amount of ammunition carried by each person cannot support them to fire indefinitely. During the battle, they seemed to be at an inherent disadvantage. Now the team's situation has basically stabilized.
We are retreating in an orderly manner toward the snowy peaks behind us, and the casualties are gradually decreasing. Everyone has quickly adapted to fighting in this environment.
But they are all temporary. Major Barron and several captains are thinking about the future of the battle.
"Major, the direction of retreat doesn't seem very optimistic!" Someone ran to Major Barron from the front of the battle with the enemy. He was a sturdy young man with a strong body and a large amount of ammunition hanging on his body. Before the battle, the entire team
Most of the load was borne by these captains to make other ordinary soldiers easier, whether in battle or on the road under various circumstances.
"There is no doubt that there are enemy airships on the snow peak, but I'm afraid that these people in front of me are not all the enemies." The man said without a smile on his face. His throat was obviously thirsty.
You can see it in his fiery breath and words. As he spoke, he swept away the surface of the snow around him, grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth. The snow was almost sticking together, and he chewed it like eating.
The sand-like snow in your mouth slowly melts with your body temperature into water that can quench your thirst.
"Same idea, if there are enemies next to the airship, they receive the communication at this time, and come down from the snow peak to attack us. At that time, except for a few of us who have a chance to escape, these people around us..." The major did not speak
, but the other person knows what it means.
They looked helpless. The actual situation after the battle started had a big deviation. Now they can only keep retreating.
"Major!" Someone was running toward them with a machine on his back. It was a communications soldier. The communications machine he was carrying was lighting up with several lights, and many indicator lights were flashing. The communications soldier himself also had a smile on his face.
Happy things.
Major Barron and another captain, who had just discussed the current situation, could not smile at this moment. When they saw the signal trooper running towards them, their hearts sank because they knew the worst thing had happened.
.
"The interference disappeared! Communication seemed to have been restored not long ago! Major!" The signal soldier ran over and reported to the major.
