Ye Han knew deeply that there was no way out in defense, and he had to break the deadlock and break through the blockade, otherwise the defenders would surely run out of ammunition and food.
But he is also very clear that the possibility of breaking the siege from inside the cave hall is very small. The reasons are more complicated, but the most important reasons are two. One is that there are too many enemies, and the other is the environment of the passage.
It is not conducive to the deployment of troops, and it is not conducive to exerting firepower advantage.
There is hope, but it does not lie with the troops in the cave hall, but with the reinforcements that may arrive at any time!
If reinforcements arrive, the inside and outside should work together to break the siege and the possibility of retreating to the shaft is very high.
Now it depends on when the reinforcements will come, and... whether the reinforcements can come.
Of course, he did not doubt the determination of the three regiment commanders under his command. The question was whether it was possible to walk to the other side of the shaft, and whether the enemy had blocked the way they came from again.
As the saying goes, when a person is unlucky, his teeth will be blocked if he drinks cold water.
Ye Han was originally worried about an accident and just thought about it, but he never expected that the reinforcements were really hard to wait for. He had fought several battles with the aliens here, and the reinforcements were coming back and forth.
Still not even a shadow could be seen, and there was no movement on the radio.
More than half of the ammunition that I brought with me has been used up. On average, each soldier does not need to carry any extra backpacks. One bag per person can take away all the remaining ammunition and supplies.
If you keep waiting like this, you will really run out of ammunition and food!
Ye Han called Luo Qi and Ouyang Ping over to discuss for a few words. The three of them all felt that they could no longer be trapped in the cave hall and had to find a way to get out. Even fighting guerrillas in a complicated cave was much better than letting the enemy be trapped here.
After setting the tone, Ye Han took the initiative to find the Italian Brigadier General and explained what he meant.
The brigadier general was not stupid and agreed very much with Ye Han's suggestion, but he raised a new question: "In which direction should we break out?"
This question really stumped Ye Han.
The north passage is definitely the best direction to break out, but there are also the most enemies there. As for the other three directions... they will not be considered for the time being!
No matter how many enemies he has, he still wants to try it, otherwise he won't be able to give up his determination.
After the brigadier general heard Ye Han introduce the situation of Channel Negative 8, his eyes suddenly lit up and he spoke at a very fast speed.
Qi Yue looked shocked: "Commander, he said they came down from Airport No. 2..."
"Isn't it possible?" Ye Han thought about the distance between the two airports and really couldn't believe the brigadier general's words.
"He also said that he very much agrees with your plan and is willing to work with us to dig back the shaft." Qi Yue added.
"Then start preparing." Ye Han said.
The two troops belonging to different countries immediately took action. The soldiers on Ye Han's side were certainly looking forward to it, and the Italian troops who had been trapped for longer were also very excited.
This is a proactive counterattack, a counterattack that is likely to win a chance of survival!
Under Ye Han's personal command, preparations for the counterattack were quickly completed.
He originally wanted to use machine guns to clear the way, with other arms assisting him, but after calling them over, he learned that the machine gunners had already consumed too much ammunition. It would be fine to concentrate the remaining ammunition to complete an assault, but then the machine guns could be thrown away.
.
Ye Han couldn't help but fell into a dilemma. In the end, reason prevailed and he gave up the idea of taking the lead with a machine gun.
If the machine gun is not good, then you can only use a rifle to top it. The problem is that the magazine capacity of the rifle is limited. If you hold the trigger, it only takes a second or two to empty a magazine. The time to change the magazine is longer than the time to shoot.
long.
Without the density of firepower of a machine gun, can it penetrate the enemy's blockade?
No matter what, Ye Han could not give up. He gritted his teeth and waved to the troops who were ready.
"Let's go!" Luo Qi's voice was low, but his tone was urgent and firm.
The two assault groups immediately rushed towards the negative 8 channel from the left and right sides. The two leading assaulters stopped when they rushed to the entrance of the cave. They first threw a few grenades inside, then held up a portable bunker and charged with a gun in one hand.
Go in.
The individual soldier's radar immediately marked all the enemy's positions, and the rifles in the two men's hands fired violently, sprinkling deadly bullets at the enemy.
The aliens have been attacked several times, and this time they were well prepared. Although some aliens were shot, others reacted quickly, hiding when they should, and counterattacking when they should. Many aliens were hanging on the wall.
Shanghe opened fire on the incoming team from the top of the cave, and a large piece of silk light enveloped him, immediately leaving criss-crossing cuts on the surface of the portable bunker.
One of the rays of light happened to pass through the shooting hole, cut off the assaulter's barrel, and then fell on his chest, almost not penetrating the breastplate.
The contact time between the two sides was extremely short, but the two commandos had already fired all the bullets in their guns. They had no time to change the magazines. After finishing the bullets, they immediately took a step sideways to make way for the shooting angle of their comrades.
Hide behind cover and change the magazine.
The two commandos behind fired one after another, and then moved out of the way after running out of bullets.
In this way, the assault teams rolled forward one after another like wheels. This tactic did achieve good results, but there must be enough space for the rotation of personnel. The direct result was that there were only two soldiers at most facing the enemy in the front.
It's not a problem to kill and injure the enemy, but the enemy's casualties are not being replenished faster than they can be replenished. This is really embarrassing.
The aliens stabilized their position with their superior strength, and breaking the blockade became an impossible task. Luo Qi reluctantly gave the troops a retreat order.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion among the aliens. Many aliens separated to both sides, and then a heavily armored giant insect jumped out from behind the enemy army, blocking half of the passage.
The aliens rushed behind the heavily armored giant insect one after another, hiding behind and firing continuously.
This time the problem is even bigger. Even if the heavily armored giant insect is killed, the corpse will still be blocked in the passage.
After withdrawing from the passage, Luo Qi told the truth about the situation he encountered. After hearing this, Ye Han secretly resented it and felt as if he shot himself in the foot.
Neither machine guns nor rifles can penetrate the shell of the heavily armored giant insect. The aliens probably suffered too many sneak attacks before they remembered to use the heavily armored giant insect to block the passage. Now they can't get out even with machine guns.
What's even more troublesome is that once other directions are blocked by giant insects, the Chinese and Italian armies will be completely blocked by aliens in the cave hall and unable to move!
The situation had reached the most critical moment. Ye Han could no longer care about so many things and immediately found the Italian Brigadier General: "Mr. Brigadier General, which passage did you come from? Do you know where the other passages lead?"
The brigadier general also understood that the situation was not good, and quickly replied: "The east leads to Airport 2. I don't know what is going on to the south. The west is an ice cave."
