Chapter 531 Haven’t Left Yet?

"We will go directly to Ashamia, Baigou, give me a location coordinate."

"Li Bang, make overall preparations for the battle."

"The drone is ready to take off, six kilometers away, pay attention to the endurance, and ensure the aerial vision."

"The other side only has ground troops, and their air force cannot launch support in a short time, don't be afraid!"

"Observe first after approaching, and find a way to delay them."

"We must wait for the support of the Syrian government forces. If it is not necessary, avoid large-scale direct conflicts as much as possible!"

"Understood!"

A series of orders were issued, and the Dongfeng Corps immediately took action.

At this time, their goal was extremely clear, which was to go to Ashamia.

This is a fairly basic judgment-if the black troops are in Ashamia, if the black troops have connections with Bin Laden and at the same time have connections with the law, if the law appears near Ashamia, and also uses quite extreme means to break through the encirclement of the government forces, then, do they need to consider their purpose again?

This must be a support operation.

No matter what their purpose is, no matter whether their team members know that the target they are meeting is Bin Laden, for the Dongfeng Corps, these three forces are already tied up.

As long as they can stop them, even if it is just to buy a little time, the Dongfeng Corps can make great contributions.

Because this can not only cause a major blow to France's strategic key nodes in Syria, but also kill the terrorist leader who should have died but did not die in one fell swoop!

The prestige of the entire Dongfeng Corps will be unprecedentedly improved. After completing this task, the foundation of the Dongfeng Corps in Syria will be completely laid.

Therefore, Chen Chen can be said to be determined to win this operation.

Of course, combat determination and combat strategy are two different things.

His confidence does not mean that he can be reckless.

Considering the speed at which the extra-legal support force connects with the other party, he does not think he needs to "race against time".

His goal is not to rely on the strength of a team of the Dongfeng Corps to directly kill all the other parties, but to follow them, keep an eye on them, and finally eat them away bit by bit.

Keeping a safe distance and avoiding the possible ground-launched missile attacks from the other side is the most reliable strategy.

After all, the situation of both sides, who rely on vehicle mobility and have "one-shot" killer weapons, is actually quite delicate.

They are like two battleships on the sea, each alone, with glass cannons on the deck. Whoever can find the other side in advance can destroy the other side in one fell swoop, and the chance of the latecomer to counterattack will be minimal.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen continued to give orders:

"Get the anti-tank missiles ready, how many are left?"

"Only 2, we did not put the anti-ground vehicle demand first, and the load was freed up for anti-aircraft missiles."

"The Vanguard series can hit a ground light armored unit without any problem, as long as it can be locked, it can be pulled out and used."

"Get ready first, if a conflict breaks out, focus on shooting down the opponent's command vehicle first!"

"Understood!"

The team member's reply came from the headset, Chen Chen looked down at the secondary screen in front of him that was connected to the drone operation screen, carefully looking for the traces of the lawless army.

At this time, the drone has risen to a height of about 600 meters, with a very wide field of vision, but at the same time, the quality of optical imaging has become extremely poor.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the high-altitude drone search sends a 4k video image that can be infinitely magnified. Even if there is a mouse on the ground, it can be accurately captured by optical and thermal instruments.

But in fact, Chen Chen is very clear that even after 10 years, the ground search capability of drones is still severely limited by weight and flexibility.

And this is actually the reason why military drones are getting bigger and bigger.

If you want to conduct effective reconnaissance on large-scale and wide-range battlefields, the weight of the equipment cannot be light.

And now, the Dongfeng Corps is still using a single-soldier ultra-short-range drone weighing less than 5 kilograms. At a distance, it is good to be able to roughly see the outline. If the opponent is camouflaged, it is even more difficult to find it.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the drone still did not find anything.

At this time, the Dongfeng Corps was only two kilometers away from Ashamiya, and Chen Chen had to order the convoy to slow down and give the drone more time to search.

This is like a minesweeper game. If the mines in front are not cleared, if you move forward rashly, you will only step into the opponent's trap.

In the picture, the buildings in Ashamiya village are already blurred, and the operator switches to thermal imaging mode, trying to capture active targets that are difficult to distinguish in optical imaging.

But the problem is that at this distance, the thermal imager can only detect a faint flash, and he has no way to determine whether the target is there.

In view of this situation, Chen Chen decisively ordered:

"Stop!"

"Stop on the reverse slope of the high slope on the west side, and the reconnaissance team will occupy the commanding heights for visual reconnaissance."

"Received!"

The dispersed convoy quickly began to turn, making a 90-degree turn and heading towards the high slope.

Non-combat vehicles parked at a distance of about 100 meters at a distance of 300 meters from the high slope, while the pickup truck used for assault reconnaissance continued to rush to the top of the high slope with three members of the reconnaissance team.

Chen Chen did not participate in the reconnaissance. After getting off the car, he quickly organized everyone to carry important equipment to disperse and hide, find shelter, and establish a defense line.

It was not late at this time, and the temperature in the desert was very high, but no one questioned Chen Chen's order.

Because they all knew that when they were in a dangerous environment and the vehicle could not provide effective protection, as long as they stopped the car, it would be better to stay as far away from the vehicle as possible.

Because the enemy hiding in the dark only needed a round of heavy machine gun fire, or a rocket launcher, or an anti-tank missile to easily destroy the stationary vehicle, and you in the vehicle would be suffocated without any resistance.

This was originally just a fairly "routine" action for them, but what everyone did not expect was that it was this simple principle that saved most people's lives.

Less than 20 seconds after the personnel dispersed, Chen Chen's sight caught a "flying mosquito" falling from the sky.

It was so fast that Chen Chen almost ignored its existence, or thought it was just some kind of illusion.

But then, his command vehicle suddenly burst into a huge flame!

"Boom!"

The explosion was deafening, and Chen Chen immediately lay down. Then, missiles fell from the sky one after another, and the Dongfeng Corps' convoy lost more than half of its vehicles in an instant!

A full six vehicles were destroyed on the spot, and the burning flames and broken fragments flew all over the ground. This round of attack was like a punishment from heaven!

"Missiles! Missiles attack the top!"

"Find their guide! He must be nearby!"

"No! No one!"

Chen Chen heard the reply from the drone operator in his headset, and at this moment, the reconnaissance team that had just reached the top also sent new intelligence.

"Found the target convoy!"

"They just crossed the sand dunes on the east side, and we lost our vision!"

"Drone fly over! Provide us with vision!"

"Received, flying!"

"Fly higher, they have anti-aircraft missiles--"

"Boom!"

Before Yang Shu, who led the reconnaissance team, finished speaking, the drone above the Dongfeng Corps instantly exploded into a ball of sparks.

The signal on the screen disappeared, and the entire team fell into an extremely passive situation.

Blinded at the beginning of the fight, after losing the only high-altitude vision, the Dongfeng Corps has almost become a blind man on the battlefield! ——

But wait.

They just crossed the sand dunes on the east side, which means that the opponent cannot see the Dongfeng Corps convoy behind the reverse slope.

So how did they guide the anti-tank missile attack?

There is only one answer.

UAV guidance.

There is another drone above our heads!

Chen Chen subconsciously raised his head, but he couldn't find anything from the sky!

Damn, could it be Global Hawk-level?

Or the high-altitude reconnaissance balloon used by the American MPRI last time?

No.

The opponent's convoy has been in high-speed maneuvers, and the balloon cannot keep up with their speed.

It can only be a large drone!

Chen Chen's heart skipped a beat, he knew too well what the appearance of a large drone above his head meant.

This proves that the actions of this French Legion squad are supported by the French military. If they can deploy drones, they can certainly deploy fighters and bombers!

However, they may not be able to take out fighters in a short time due to the constraints of NATO and the United States.

Time is very limited. If the party cannot immediately form a counterattack, this opportunity will be lost forever!

"Mortar!"

"The reconnaissance team determines the approximate location and conducts a round of fire suppression first!"

"Understood! Rapid fire and prepare for a round!"

The order was issued, and four small-caliber mortars were deployed within 15 seconds. Then, without complex calculations, relying only on the approximate direction and distance information provided by the reconnaissance team, the gunner fired a round of rapid fire without hesitation.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The explosion sounded in the distance, and Chen Chen had no way to observe the effect of the shelling, but in fact, it didn't matter.

Now, the most important thing for the Dongfeng Corps is to complete the harassment of the French Legion as much as possible and delay it until Suhail arrives!

"White Dog! Find Su Haier! Ask him when he can arrive!"

"12 minutes! 12 minutes!"

White Dog on the other side answered immediately. Chen Chen frowned and gave an order after thinking for a moment:

"The reconnaissance team takes a 4-man assault team and detours to the east sand dune to get the enemy's accurate position coordinates!"

"Take the anti-tank missiles. Once the target is found, immediately conduct a concentrated fire attack to force the leading vehicle to stop!"

"Understood! I'll go!"

Li Bang stepped forward and rolled over to sit on an undestroyed pickup truck. Lin He followed closely behind, and the other two team members followed immediately.

Yang Shu led the reconnaissance team to evacuate from the sand dune, while Chen Chen led the remaining team members to move forward on the sand dune.

The two sides met halfway up the mountain without wasting a second to look at each other, let alone "farewell".

The intense exercise made Chen Chen a little breathless. He fell to the ground and quickly pulled up his tinfoil camouflage clothes. Then, he raised the telescope and looked at the Ashhamia village below.

In the fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, the village seemed extremely peaceful.

There was no sign of chaos, and no suspicious people appeared on the road.

Chen Chen even thought that the law had taken their target away, or that their target was not in Ashhamia at all, and the encounter between the two sides nearby was just a coincidence.

But soon, the news from the reconnaissance team completely ended Chen Chen's suspicion.

In the headset, Yang Shu shouted hurriedly:

"Encountered the main force of the enemy! Retreating!"

"Damn! They are also rushing towards us! We hit them!"

"Given the coordinates, the bushes on the south side! Artillery support is needed!"

"Lay the rockets first!"

Chen Chen decisively ordered, and in an instant, the 107 rocket launchers that had been deployed were ignited, and 9 fire dragons dragged clearly visible white smoke and screamed and fell towards the bushes in the distance.

The assault reconnaissance team that had just evacuated to the vicinity of the bushes narrowly avoided this round of rockets, and the latest explosion even occurred less than 30 meters behind their car!

Then, the 120mm mortar, which had already completed its aiming, made a dull explosion.

"Bang——"

A shell flew out of the barrel and fell into the bushes nearly 900 meters away in an astonishing high arc. The blast uprooted the low bushes, and at the same time, a Hummer chasing the Dongfeng Corps reconnaissance team was overturned!

In the distance, the opponent's main convoy had been completely exposed to Chen Chen's eyes, and such exposure also meant that the battle between the two sides was finally about to enter the stage of full-scale outbreak.

"Don't stop the artillery fire!"

"Automatic howitzers!"

"There are no automatic howitzers! The automatic howitzers have been blown up!"

"Damn!"

"Bazooka! Vanguard-12!"

"Heavy machine gun!"

"Shoot whatever you have! Don't let them get any closer!"

"Understood!"

Accompanied by the sound of heavy machine guns, several smoke rushed towards the Hummer convoy in the distance.

But the distance between the two sides was too far, almost all the individual rocket launchers missed, and even the two Vanguard-12s failed to lock the target!

In contrast, the enemy's first round of automatic grenades attacked.

MK-19, the nightmare of infantry.

The continuous grenades tilted down, and Chen Chen had no time to think about it, so he could only order:

"Abandon heavy equipment!"

"Find a bunker to hide on the reverse slope!"

"Don't show your head first, just survive this wave!"

"Understood!"

The explosions continued, and Chen Chen's arms were scratched by fragments, but at this moment, they no longer had any ability to resist.

As Chen Chen said, the two sides were two battleships sailing on the sea. Whoever launched the attack first would be invincible.

There was really no chance.

We must retreat to Ashamia and use more bunkers to mediate.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen immediately said:

"Cover the reconnaissance team!"

"Everyone disperse and evacuate in the direction of Ashhamia!"

"Understood!"

The order was issued, and the Dongfeng Corps moved again.

At this time, they were nearly two kilometers away from Ashhamia, but it was almost impossible to cross the distance of two kilometers without a vehicle.

——

Unless someone came to pick them up.

When everyone was retreating to Ashhamia, shells fell in a certain direction behind them.

Suhaier finally arrived.

They were far away, even too far to participate in the battle directly.

However, his round of artillery support gave the Dongfeng Corps the last chance.

Chen Chen was very excited, and Ashhamia was already in sight.

But just as he was about to step into the village, a militant with a gun appeared in front of him, but he almost froze in his place.

Gagon.

He had seen photos and videos of this person.

He hasn't left yet! ?

Bin Laden hasn't left yet! ?
