Chapter 267 The Test Is Coming
ps: Here comes the fourth update, and there will be more to come. I will continue to ask for everything, and I have to shamelessly ask for rewards and magic points. I am afraid that without these, I will not be able to be on the newcomer list. I am working hard to be the only list that can be included. , please give me your support brothers, thank you.
Zero casualties can only be thought of after all. A large-scale live-fire exercise can cause casualties, let alone a real battle. Although the enemy collapses at the first touch or even flees, casualties are still inevitable. .
It took almost two hours from the launch of the attack to dark. During this period, there were only seven casualties, two dead, three seriously injured, and two lightly injured. For the number of combatants who had been involved, this casualty number was almost It can be ignored.
The Skeleton Gang's night fighting capabilities were insufficient, but they had certain night fighting capabilities. After dark, Gao Yang did not order to consolidate the results, but ordered the companies except the teaching company to continue attacking, only to reduce the intensity of the attack, and gave the teaching company the order The order was to expand the scale of operations in night battles and to take a more proactive offensive than during the day.
After the teaching company was equipped with captured night combat equipment and field equipment specially purchased for them, the entire company has the ability to fight at night. At night, it is the time when the teaching company can exert decisive power.
The teaching company's performance did not live up to Gao Yang's expectations. Although the teaching company advanced deeper and encountered far more and stronger resistance than other companies, under the leadership of Li Jinfang, the teaching company almost swept everything with a crushing force. The enemy in front of you.
The teaching company has gone deep alone. They have advanced along Highway 1 and have controlled the coastal area in the northwest corner of Bossosa.
For the Skeleton Gang, which has stronger maritime transport capacity. Controlled the coastal area of Bossosa. This means that ammunition and supplies can be delivered directly from the sea to the city of Bossosa at any time. Delivered directly to the teaching company.
After only five hours of fighting, the Skeleton Gang has controlled the entire northwest corner of Bossosa, while the teaching company has extended its position forward. On the satellite map held by Gao Yang, it looks like... It is a Chinese kitchen knife. The position of the blade is the standing army, and the position of the handle is the teaching company.
With the standing army in full bloom within Borsosa, Grolev divided the artillery into four sections. They also followed into the city to provide artillery support for the troops entering Bossosa. However, after entering the city, the artillery rarely had a chance to show its power.
Now the teaching company is the spearhead and core of the attack. Grolev personally followed the teaching company with five mortars and five rocket launchers, ready to support at any time, and most of Cui Bo's sniper team was also Attracted, although it was a night battle, the teaching company's front line changed faster than during the day.
Gao Yang still led the Seventh Company as a reserve team to guard outside Bososa City.
It was going so smoothly that he felt a little bored. But boring is boring, Gao Yang does not dare to let down his guard at all, because according to Ulyanke's news, there should be at least two mercenary groups in Bossosa City, but until now, the mercenary groups have not appeared yet body.
The enemy's mercenary group is like a thorn in Gao Yang's heart. Although he still doesn't know how strong the enemy's mercenary group is and how many people there are, Gao Yang naturally regards the hostile mercenaries as his biggest enemies. If If the local mercenary group cannot be found and annihilated, no matter how smooth the current progress is, it will be in vain. If the mercenary group sent by the Mokadi faction has a large number of people and is strong enough, it may not be possible. The Skeleton Gang really couldn't stop the counterattack launched by the mercenaries.
A long time has passed, but there have been no reports of exchanges of fire with suspected enemy mercenaries. Gao Yang has no other choice but to order each company to stand ready.
The time slowly reached twelve o'clock. Although after a long battle and entering the night battle mode, the casualties of the standing army began to increase. Forty-six people had lost their combat effectiveness. However, the morale of the Skeleton Gang was high and they could not feel it at all. Tired, with no intention of stopping fighting.
When the time was exactly twelve o'clock, Gao Yang's earphones, which had not sounded for a long time, suddenly rang.
"The Second Company reported that we have about sixty prisoners here who asked to join the battle. No, we cannot say they are prisoners. They surrendered to us on their own initiative, but they said that they were not from the Mokadi faction, but just civilians from Bossosa. , and they asked to participate in the battle and attack the Mokadi faction with us. Sir, should we agree to their request? Please give instructions, over."
Almost everyone in Somalia has a gun, and the Mokadi faction does not have uniform military uniforms, so how to distinguish the Mokadi militants from civilians is really a problem, so when a group of people claim that they are civilians rather than Mokadi It was impossible to identify people from the Mokadi sect, but Gao Yang did not intend to identify them. Since anyone is willing to join the battle against the Mokadi sect, then join them. They are welcome.
"They are allowed to join the battle. They are all locals and familiar with the terrain. You can ask them more to see if they can know the distribution of the enemy's troops. But be careful and explain our rules clearly to these people. Never let them They burn, kill and loot, and if this happens, kill them on the spot."
"Yes, sir, one more thing. One of these guys said that he had seen many foreigners, many of whom were white. They just arrived a few days ago. I think this situation may be useful to you."
Gao Yang almost jumped up when he heard this. Isn't this the news he had been waiting for so long? The company commander who reported it actually left this most important situation to the end.
"What? Quickly ask him about the location of those people, and ask about their number. Quickly, after you ask clearly, send me the surrenders who have seen foreigners, as quickly as possible!"
"Yes, sir!"
The headphones temporarily returned to calm. The commander of the second company had already gone to ask about the defectors who might be mercenaries. But while Gao Yang was waiting anxiously, Li Jinfang suddenly sent back the news.
"I am a toad. The leading troops of the teaching company encountered strong resistance and suffered relatively heavy losses. The tactics and morale of the enemies they encountered were very different from the previous enemies. They were probably mercenaries, but the number of enemies cannot be confirmed at present. and identity, I’m on my way to find out the situation, over!”
After Li Jinfang finished speaking hurriedly, the signal from the commander of the second company also came in. He said urgently: "The number of those foreigners is about a hundred or more. Mokadi appeared with those people, and the enemy is well-equipped. They were definitely combatants, but the person who saw them did not count the number of foreigners carefully. Also, he saw the foreigners near the port, but he didn’t know where they went."
The information on the walkie-talkie is shared, and company-level commanders can also communicate with each other, so Gao Yang does not need to repeat it to Li Jinfang. He immediately yelled on the walkie-talkie: "Toad, you heard it, the enemy your unit encountered It is very possible that these are the people, be careful, shrink the front and wait for reinforcements! Big dog, you know what to do!"
Gao Yang understood that the real tough battle had finally come, and it was time to put the last reserve team into the battlefield. (To be continued...)
