After rushing into the enemy's range of more than 30 meters, the soldiers first threw a row of grenades at the enemy's position... On the battlefield, whoever throws the grenades will take advantage of them. Under normal circumstances, we all
It was about fifty meters before he started to throw and charge, so that he could basically take the lead in the battlefield.
The reason why we throw it for more than 30 meters now is that the grenade we use has changed from a wooden handle grenade that can be swept farther to a melon grenade. Another reason is that the visual distance at night is shorter
Much, if you throw it away fifty meters away, it would be basically a blind man touching an elephant.
Of course, this kind of grenade-swinging battle is mutual, that is, when we swing the grenade in the direction of the enemy, the Argentine army is also throwing at us.
But Argentina's flanks are obviously less than us... To be precise, the number of Argentine troops is not less than us. The total number of people in an artillery regiment is more than one thousand, so in terms of number, that is more than us.
Many, but the Afghan army adopted guerrilla warfare at this time, so the location was very scattered.
Dispersed locations have advantages and disadvantages.
Of course, the benefits are what I said before, which makes the British sas feel a little in a daze. Even if they have helicopter cooperation, it is difficult to clean up these scattered Ah Jun one by one in a short time, so Ah Jun achieved the
To entangle our purpose.
The disadvantage is that... the too scattered force makes their combat effectiveness in unit area seem too thin. Just like now, we only have one strengthened platoon and throw a batch of grenades forward, which is 30 or 40, and
Due to the dispersed forces, the army can only throw grenades into our range at most seven or eight.
So there is no need to mention who is more advantageous in this close grenade battle. With a "boom" explosion, the soldiers led their British soldiers to thrust bayonets like tigers.
Argentine troops rushing into the darkness.
The enemy and us soon fell into a melee, a melee in the darkness.
This kind of melee is obviously beneficial to us. The main reason is that we are wearing Ah military uniforms, which makes it difficult for Ah military to distinguish between enemies and us.
Of course, in the dark, we are not easy to identify ourselves. Although we are all tied with white towels on our left shoulder, this is not very effective at a critical moment. The reason is that the white towel has been fought until now.
It has also been dyed dark by blood or mud, and it is difficult to distinguish in the darkness, and there is no time to carefully distinguish it during such close combat.
In fact, at this time, we no longer identify the enemy or me, but whether there is a white towel on the left shoulder, but whether it is face to face. Simply put, as long as the one with the back is facing us, you don’t have to hit you, and if you face to face us, you don’t have to think about it.
No, no matter whether he is the enemy or not, then let's talk about it first.
And at this point we have a great advantage... We are the charger, and naturally no one will rush halfway through and turn around to block our team.
The Argentines were the defensive side, and because they did not have much combat effectiveness in unit area, they immediately collapsed when they were charged like a grenade and hungry wolf, and turned around and ran away with their guns.
This caused other Afghans who were still defending to face a difficult problem... They could not distinguish whether these dark shadows rushing towards them were enemies or friends, so they didn't know how to face such an offensive.
Although Argentine artillery is a veteran, they have obviously never seen such a style of play when facing guerrillas. What's more, the field ability of Argentine artillery is inferior to that of us even the British army under Major Will. The reason why we can do it just now
It was just because we had the advantage of tactics and night. Now that we were rushing, the entire army quickly collapsed... In the darkness, we only saw a bunch of A-juns here and there in panic.
From the snow, they crawled out of the bunker and ran away in scatters. At this time, the sas, who had taken one step ahead of us, even fell behind us.
"Hey!" When we met Sas again, the British army laughed and said, "I didn't expect that Sas would be so slow, and our cover troops were ahead of you!"
"Look! Just as you were trying to escape, we won another battle!"
"I have reason to believe that SAS once again demonstrates how to retreat under the cover of friendly forces!"
...
All the sas team members were so angry that they gritted their teeth by the British soldiers, but they had nothing to say.
This is the battlefield. It is not about quality or equipment. It only depends on whether you can fight and whether you can win a battle. At this point, the British soldiers in the training company tonight obviously performed much better than Sas.
But I know that it is not the time to be proud, because the Harrier had already dropped the bomb and returned to the voyage. There were no fires at the Port of Stanley. The only thing that could cover us was a few bobcat helicopters above our heads
, but I think there is not much ammunition left in them.
However, before we could run far, we saw a team of Armen running out of the direction of Stanley Port... I couldn't help but be shocked and thought to myself that it was over. We had wasted too much time in the artillery position just now.
Now all reinforcements from Port Stanley have arrived.
Although there are not many Afghan troops in front of us, the number of people is too large. One battalion is about four or five hundred. If we want to fight, we can still defeat them. But it is conceivable that the Afghan reinforcements will increase.
And we can only be dragged here until the ammunition and food are exhausted and eventually killed or captured by the Ah Army.
"Colin!" Major Will hugged and ran over and squatted beside me and sighed, "Although I didn't agree with your plan from the beginning, I have to admit that we have achieved great victories so far
.But now, I must remind you that we have not much ammunition anymore!”
I understand what Major Will means. We will be inadequate ammunition so soon, which is completely expected. The main reason is that SAS has been surrounded for more than a day, and this kind of siege is still in the Armenian army with stinger missiles.
Siege in the case.
Ajun has poisonous stinger air defense, which means that the helicopter cannot deliver supplies to sas. On the other hand, if the target is too small if it uses a transport aircraft to deliver supplies... The second layer of defense line where sas was located was only two small high grounds, and the transport aircraft wanted to be accurate.
It is almost impossible to airdrop supply on these two small high grounds.
This directly led to the fact that the sass was out of ammunition and food. If it weren't for our assistance tonight, they would be unable to break through.
Of course, after breaking through, we quickly distributed the more ammunition we brought to sas.
However, we had a few hours of walking before we arrived at this wireless ridge, and we had to go through layers of blockades and inspections by the Armenian army, which determined that we could not bring too much ammunition, and our company only had one
There were more than a hundred people, but there were more than three hundred people in sas, so there was not much ammunition in this cent.
In addition, there have been several battles in succession now... Wireless Ridge, Coarse Diamond Mountain, and then the artillery positions. It is good that the soldiers can have a magazine in their hands.
"It's not your fault!" Major Will said: "The information we have is not accurate enough. The Coarse Diamond Mountain has caused us too much trouble and wasted too much of our ammunition..."
"Say, what are your plans?" I interrupted Major Will.
"Surrender!" Major Will said: "I have discussed with Major Hill. We have no hope of breaking through. If we continue to fight, we will only cause unnecessary casualties."
"The most important thing is to save the life of the soldier!" Major Hill ran up and interrupted, "It is no point in fighting without ammunition. I will make this request to Brigadier General Clap, and I believe Brigadier General Clap is also
Will agree to us do this!”
I don't doubt this. It doesn't matter much except for the death of many people after fighting in this situation. According to the Western idea, this current state is fully in line with the definition of "doing your best but not changing the situation".
On the other hand, although the current situation is not good for us, the initiative in the entire battle is still held in the hands of the British army. In the foreseeable future, as long as the British army finally wins this war, they will be captured.
British soldiers, including sas, will naturally be returned to the British army unconditionally.
Sas is an important property of the British army, so Clap has every reason to agree to Major Hill's request to allow surrender, and even when they return to their country, they will still be treated as heroes.
But I was still unwilling to give up.
Later I thought about it, I thought that maybe it was because I was a Chinese rather than a Westerner. The blood flowing in our bodies felt that surrender was a shame, not to mention that we soldiers, including me, had never surrendered.
If we surrender now, how can we face our subordinates and comrades after returning to China?!
This idea may be stupid, because this battle is not even our battle, so there is no need for us to pay the price of our lives, but the Chinese people just won’t choose or even consider taking this step. This is from Zhao Jingping
You can see the look of Scar and others looking at me.
But what if we don’t surrender? Could it be that we really use the few ammunition left in our hands to fight against Ah Jun in this struggle that does not belong to us?
This is obviously unrealistic. Even if the top ones of us are willing, the British soldiers are not willing!
So, if you really do this, in the end, I'm afraid that only a dozen of us will do unnecessary sacrifices in foreign countries.
After thinking about it, I decided to try a method that is almost impossible to succeed... (To be continued...)
