Chapter 1689 Melee in Mogadishu

According to the plan formulated by the Supreme Command of the Red Police Corps, after the first brigade of the Airborne Division successfully landed in Mogadishu, most of the troops did not need to conduct mobile operations. They only needed to arrange a defensive circle nearby and wait for the armed personnel to attack.

Such a tactic was formulated entirely for the armed forces in Mogadishu. In fact, the Red Police Corps did not intend to completely eliminate the armed personnel in the city from the very beginning, but was based on killing the enemy's vital forces.

If the armed men fled Mogadishu, the Red Police Corps would not need to pursue them.

According to the tactical arrangement, the airborne paratroopers quickly assembled as basic combat units, controlled the intersection and the buildings on both sides, and used armored vehicles and tanks to lay out the defense line.

This is also the time difference between fighting the opponent. The militants in Mogadishu have not yet reacted, and the defense line has been quickly established. Quite tough.

It is not easy to replace the armed members in Mogadishu now. Defense points have been established in the entire city, and the entire city has almost been separated.

The point-to-point defenses were connected together, and the original rhythm of the city was completely disrupted.

When a large number of armed men flooded the streets, they faced intensive fire attacks.

In terms of actual combat marksmanship, every member of the Red Police Corps can be said to be able to penetrate Yang within a hundred meters, but the requirement for paratroopers is at least 200 meters, or even 400 meters.

Therefore, paratroopers need to fight and withdraw at any time, and often face the enemy's encirclement, so fighting at a distance is a necessary skill.

In the Red Police Corps, there is a concept that has never changed, that is, you can waste a hundred bullets on the training ground in exchange for one bullet on the battlefield to defeat the enemy, and don't waste a bullet on the training ground. One bullet, in exchange for wasting a hundred bullets on the battlefield.

There is no shortcut to marksmanship other than talent, the only way is to keep feeding it with bullets.

In the Red Police Corps, the bullets in training have never been limited.

Even the most ordinary soldiers, as long as they want to train, they can go to the logistics center to get live ammunition for training, and all they have to do is to bring back the shell casings and count them.

Under such training rules, almost every soldier of the Red Police Corps is a veritable sharpshooter, and this is the result of feeding countless bullets.

Unlimited supply of live ammunition training, that is to say, Cai Ruichen has such a skill, even the United States can't do it.

The actual combat effect of such training results is quite obvious. When the U.S. military fought the Red Police Corps for the first time in Iran, it had already tasted the pain deeply in this regard.

The opponent's marksmanship is simply brutal. Once the superior firepower is lost, it is almost impossible to shoot at the opponent within the combat distance, because the loser must be an American soldier.

The infantry was completely suppressed against the infantry, which made the Eighth Army of the U.S. Army, and when it came to the Middle East Federal Guard, all of them would look very ugly.

In fact, soldiers' marksmanship has been emphasized since World War II. On the battlefield, the effect of killing an enemy with a hundred bullets is different from killing an enemy with one bullet.

Although the enemies are all dead,

But the time it takes to fire one bullet is different from the time it takes to fire a hundred bullets, and the deterrent effect on the enemy is even more different. Another thing is that the logistics cost of the war is already in it.

Battlefield logistics and training ground logistics are completely different concepts.

But in fact, from World War II to the present, based on the development process and statistics of firearms, in fact, on average, hundreds of bullets or even hundreds of bullets will kill one soldier.

Therefore, Cai Ruichen would rather waste bullets on the training ground than see his soldiers holding a pile of bullets on the battlefield but unable to kill the opponent.

In fact, Cai Ruichen's thoughts are more likely to be implemented in the garrison regiment, and he doesn't need to worry about the Red Police Corps at all.

The soldiers of the Red Police Corps are born fighters, marksmanship is only the basic entry for soldiers to overcome, and it is also a skill that the Red Police Corps will take the initiative to continue to learn.

Hitting an egg 100 meters away is the lowest qualification standard for the Red Police Corps, and an egg 100 meters away is actually about the same size as an embroidery needle.

The requirements for paratroopers are even higher, but the performance on the battlefield is more about having a good attitude. This is also the most perfect part of the Red Police Corps.

A large number of armed men poured out from both sides of the street, and a gun battle broke out on the street.

The crisp sound of bursts from Type 20 assault rifles echoed in the streets and cities. Soldiers of the Red Police Corps had strict regulations on the use of firearms. In such a fighting situation, firearms were fired in bursts.

Pulling the trigger is a bullet, but the effect is very good. The armed personnel in Mogadishu often find them as soon as they show their heads.

When a group of charging people were all headshot and fell on the street one by one, they really frightened the people behind. In which direction the bullet flew, I didn't know.

The enemy that any army most hopes to encounter is this kind of existence that can be said to be unable to hold a gun steadily.

The paratroopers didn't like this kind of battle rhythm very much. They tried to expose the muzzles of the guns fired on the wall one by one, but they were directly shot away by the bullets. The people holding the weapons suffered from mild wrist sprains and severe dislocations.

But this situation is only temporary, because more armed personnel are coming from all directions.

When armed men began to appear at various intersections, the battle really began.

The armed personnel in Mogadishu can almost be said to be a group of guys who are not afraid of death. When the number reaches a certain level, the battle begins to become a little difficult.

Especially at the two intersections near the port, on the wide intersection, only two platoons of paratroopers landed at this place, and the two platoons quickly controlled the two buildings on the edge of the intersection to form a defensive line.

The port of Mogadishu is the real lifeblood of the armed forces in Mogadishu, and the greatest pressure lies in the port.

A large number of armed personnel frantically gathered here in various vehicles, and the battle in the port had already begun, so the two platoons of paratroopers had to prevent any reinforcements from entering the port.

Intensive firepower spread throughout the intersection. The armed men in Mogadishu were not fools, and they also controlled the two buildings across the street. The fighting was very fierce. (To be continued.)
