The artillery fire smashed the buildings here into pieces, and only a few low walls were still standing alone among the rubble. Behind the low walls, a mechanized squad led by Sun Shaoyang was on guard.
The battle with the 'Resistance Army' has entered the second stage. The five newly formed infantry divisions have all received good training here. The next step is to let the three Guards Brigades that have just completed their expansion come here to gain experience points.
Tactical coordination can actually be practiced very well on the training ground, especially since the three Guards brigades are basically heavily armed and are not suitable for the mountainous terrain around Shivata. However, the legion still places the Guards brigades
Infantrymen were sent to actual combat, all just to practice their courage.
No matter how good the drill is, it is difficult to develop courage. Only by going through a real gunfight can you understand what it means to be calm - the army is constantly expanding and there are too many recruits. Many soldiers are good at everything in training.
As soon as he entered the battlefield, he ran around everywhere.
Sun Shaoyang's task today is to stand behind a low wall for twenty-four hours. One day and one night. It seems simple, but the whole class is nervous to death because the 'resistance' is no weakling now.
There is a rumor on the front line that the soldiers of the "Mexican United Front" in the north are addicted to drugs, and their technical and tactical skills are not bad. Apart from being a little dull, they are completely qualified infantry. This is much better than the soldiers of the Mexican government army. If you want to
It is not easy to take advantage of your opponent.
Moreover, in the previous round of battles, the legion's troops were trained, and the surviving soldiers and officers of the 'Resistance Army' became extremely capable. They could survive the artillery fire and blockade for more than a month, no matter who was the person who accomplished such a feat.
, will become unpleasant to deal with.
"Squad leader, there is movement in the east." A soldier shouted in a low voice: "It's right opposite us."
Sun Shaoyang's squad of nine people are scattered within an area of about 20 to 30 meters in diameter. Although it is quiet in the ruins, it is actually full of dangers. Enemies are ambushing you wherever you don't know. Everyone doesn't want to cause trouble, they just want to be safe in the city.
I spent twenty-four hours in the ruins.
In this seemingly non-dangerous place, everyone must be alert. After hearing the report from his subordinates, Sun Shaoyang immediately crouched and moved a few steps, poked his head out of a gap in the wall, glanced sideways, and then retracted.
.
To the east of the low wall is a street full of construction debris. Just a glance at it, Sun Shaoyang saw someone rushing past with a gun and a low waist, "Damn, the rebels are coming up again. Maybe two
A fighting team of three, as nasty as bugs."
General Sagraza was originally commanding the "Mexican Liberation Front" guerrillas. His ability to fight positional warfare is average, but he has a good grasp of the penetration tactics of small teams. He has now given up on field battles and turned to street fighting or guerrilla warfare.
.
Sun Shaoyang hated street fighting. This kind of fighting within a dozen meters as soon as the enemy appeared was too terrifying. People's nerves were always tense and the equipment advantages could not be used at all. Now when he encountered the enemy's combat team, the first thing he did was to call for artillery support.
"Squad deputy, call the mortars in the company and ask them to fire a few shells 30 meters east of position 52. By the way, remind those turtles not to hit us." Sun Shaoyang shouted on his walkie-talkie
road.
The squad deputy was in charge of a machine gun team and two riflemen on a dilapidated building floor 20 meters behind Sun Shaoyang.
The mechanized infantry of the Guards Brigade was originally equipped with the Type 89 heavy machine gun, but the soldiers complained about this heavy machine gun, which is said to be the lightest in the world, especially its poor shooting accuracy.
As a result, these heavy machine guns were handed over to the Mexican government army. The army changed the four-man heavy machine gun team into two two-man light machine gun teams, equipped with Type 80 general-purpose machine guns. The '80-type' is good, but the problem is that it is not suitable for street fighting at the moment.
What kind of accuracy is needed, but the penetrating power of large-caliber projectiles is particularly needed.
"I miss the 89th style now." Sun Shaoyang was muttering nonsense, and several artillery shells flew over his head and hit the ruins to the east of him.
Seeing the smoke rising from the impact point of the bullet, Sun Shaoyang cursed to the squad leader on the radio: "I knew those idiots in the artillery platoon would miss the target. They would miss it to the left... Oh, damn, let them shoot quickly."
After the shell exploded and alerted his opponent, Sun Shaoyang saw five or six armed men suddenly appearing from behind the street to the east of him, advancing alternately to cover each other. He turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Start the east side as soon as we arrive."
With six explosive points, the enemy will come up with at least one platoon."
A soldier hurriedly grabbed a detonator. This was an anti-infantry mine that was originally set outside the position and buried under the rubble and rubble. The mine was set to detonate by wire. It exploded soon after being activated, and the flying steel balls would soon hit the ground.
The first two enemies that came up were swept down.
But in the smoke of the explosion, he soon saw the enemy soldiers rushing forward without fear of death. Sun Shaoyang immediately cursed: "Damn it, I told you to activate six."
The soldier behind him was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He kept pressing the button of the detonator and shouted: "All six of them were activated, but only two exploded."
There were many silhouettes of people jumping out of the smoke, and they were not afraid of death. Some people even shouted slogans such as "For Mexico", and they came up in one breath from only a distance of about 20 meters.
The machine gun team under the control of the squad deputy immediately opened fire, and the bullets swept into a barrage, knocking down several enemies in front of Sun Shaoyang. The enemies behind him immediately fell down and rolled to find cover, and threw a few grenades up.
A grenade exploded next to Sun Shaoyang. The air wave blew him around and covered him with a layer of soil. He waited for the dizziness in his head to pass and wanted to raise his gun to shoot, but found that he could not lift his arm.
.
Seeing the blood on his arm, Sun Shaoyang didn't bother to bandage it. He pulled out a pistol with his other hand and fired a few rounds. Then he saw the soldier operating the detonator behind him pass him slowly, and a lying man walked past him.
He threw himself on the ground and planted an anti-infantry mine at the front of the battle line.
‘This is the enemy’.
The soldier quickly laid the curved mine, quickly inserted the detonating wire and then retracted it. The mine was less than three meters in front of Sun Shaoyang, and the soldier who laid the mine was heard yelling as he crawled past him, "Squad leader,
Lower your head."
If a landmine is planted so close, you can easily kill yourself.
Sun Shaoyang didn't even have time to curse. He wanted to burrow his head into the soil, but he felt that the surrounding mountains were shaking. The exploding landmine exploded and hundreds of steel balls were sprayed forward. The air pressure in Sun Shaoyang's ears changed dramatically, his brain buzzed, and the sky and the earth were spinning. He
He fainted.
The two machine gun teams in the squad opened fire at the same time to suppress it. The squad deputy led people up and dragged Sun Shaoyang back. After a few minutes of first aid, Sun Shaoyang opened his eyes and looked at the sky that was still bright in the smoke, and asked: "Am I not dead?"
"No."
"Have we made it through twenty-four hours?"
"I'm dreaming." The squad leader saw Sun Shaoyang wake up, lit a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth. He breathed a sigh of relief and teased: "We have been on the battlefield less than ten hours. Squad leader, you are only slightly injured. After the treatment,
Not even qualified to get off the line of fire."
Sun Shaoyang suddenly said in frustration: "This is still a low-intensity battle. I already feel like I can't stand it any longer. Does the high-intensity mean everyone becomes cannon fodder? Is there any good news you can tell me?"
"We have just repelled an attack by an enemy platoon. Seven or eight of the rebels were killed and retreated. Our new recruits performed well today. Although a few were slightly injured, they were still able to hold on. But it was getting dark soon.
Yes, I heard that fighting at night is more difficult."
"This is damn good news. Who on earth insists that we go to the front lines to gain experience?"
"Think openly, it's our Emperor."
"Damn the Emperor."
"Hahaha..., when you pick up a Mexican girl and learn Spanish, you say long live His Majesty."
"You idiot, the girl I picked up this time is obviously a Cuban girl. As long as I am allowed to live, I will pick up girls from all countries in the Americas."
