Chapter 741: Mistake

The battle became intense as soon as it started.

The first to start the fight were six armed helicopters, whose target was the Soviet howitzer battalion one kilometer away.

The commandos did not need to pay attention to this howitzer battalion, because the enemy's howitzer troops did not have much combat power. Even if they had howitzers in their hands, they could not carry out indiscriminate bombing on Lower Tasker under such circumstances. The reason was that the division headquarters was stationed in Lower Tasker Village, and senior officers were always there. Senior officers of the Soviet Army were in short supply at this time, and many senior officers were even of low ranks.

From this point of view, the loss of killing these senior officers by indiscriminate bombing was not very large.

Qin Chuan was worried that these artillerymen would abandon their artillery and pick up rifles to rush to reinforce after discovering that a battle had taken place in Lower Tasker Village.

Admittedly, these artillerymen were not very powerful, but this did not mean that the commandos did not need to consider them.

On the one hand, special operations themselves were taboo to be dragged down by the enemy and unable to escape. On the other hand, they were worried that this howitzer battalion would use artillery fire to block the helicopter's landing and take-off point.

The armed helicopters started to fight, and it was a lively scene. Each of these helicopters was equipped with four five-pack rockets, which means that each helicopter had 20 rockets, and six helicopters had 120 rockets... After confirming the Soviet howitzer battalion's stationing point, the German pilots fired these rockets in a few seconds.

With a series of terrifying "whoosh" sounds, the howitzer battalion's position was instantly blown into a sea of ​​fire. Many Soviet artillerymen in the howitzer battalion were blown to pieces before they understood what was going on. The surviving soldiers ran out of the camp in panic, running around like headless flies.

Perhaps the explosion temporarily deafened their ears and the fire made them unable to see the things around them. They didn't notice that several helicopters above their heads were pointing their machine guns at the ground...

Needless to say, there was a burst of gunfire, and dense rain of bullets poured towards the Soviet soldiers with bright lines.

As mentioned before, since all the load of the armed helicopter is used to load weapons and ammunition, it is almost equivalent to an ammunition depot. Once it starts fighting, it will sweep the ground with ammunition without hesitation, knocking down the Soviet soldiers on the ground in piles like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

In less than a minute, a grenade battalion was reduced to ruins. If there were any survivors, it was one or two Soviet soldiers lying in a dark corner, trembling and not daring to react.

Almost at the same time as the armed helicopters started the battle, the transport helicopter troops on the other side also launched their offensive.

The task of the transport helicopter troops was obviously more difficult, because they could not attack the ground without scruples like the armed helicopters. The purpose of the transport helicopter troops was to capture Soviet officers instead of killing them, which determined that the commandos had to rappel and then conduct a surgical attack.

But this does not mean that transport helicopters cannot carry out violent attacks...

The first to open fire was the machine gun deployed at the hatch. The machine gunner pulled the trigger and fired a volley of bullets at a patrol team below. More than a dozen Soviet soldiers were shot into sieves amid screams.

In addition, several transport helicopters used ropes to lower soldiers while using machine guns to fiercely fire at several houses...These houses were identified by intelligence personnel as dormitories for the Soviet guard company. Of course, they had no value as prisoners. Poor them, they might have just discovered something and had no time to react before they were eliminated.

Of course, this does not mean that all the guards were eliminated. In fact, only a small part of them were eliminated...There were more than 60 houses in the "rat's nest", and the guards were scattered in these houses. Only two more concentrated platoons were used as dormitories.

So gunshots soon rang in the dark, and Soviet soldiers hid in the dark and shot at the helicopters.

At this time, the helicopter's mission had basically been completed. If they stayed here, it would only increase their own danger. So except for two helicopters with special missions, all the others were lifted up and left temporarily.

Qin Chuan landed on the roof of a three-story concrete house. It is said that this building was built by a businessman for his family. It is the best and tallest building in the village.

It is reasonable for the Soviet commander not to choose this building as the headquarters. This is not because they are frugal and dedicated to their duties, but because it is only 30 kilometers away from the front line. German fighter planes can fly over the village in minutes. Looking down, the most eye-catching thing is this building.

In order not to become the target of the German Air Force, they chose a less conspicuous two-story old building 300 meters away.

This is a wise choice, but it has no effect under the attack of the commando helicopter.

Qin Chuan set up a rifle on the roof and instantly controlled the entire situation and could command in time.

However, the command at this time was not so convenient, because the commando was not equipped with a micro-walkie-talkie and could not transmit the command to the squad level, so after the offensive was launched, a large part of it could only rely on the drills in the training ground and the tacit understanding between the squads.

With a "bang!", Qin Chuan shot down a Soviet soldier hiding in the corner.

He was in a blind spot of Team A's vision, and even the flares fired by the helicopter could not illuminate his position. Qin Chuan noticed that he had unscrewed the safety caps of several grenades, apparently waiting for Team A to pass the other side of the broken wall before throwing the grenades out.

But Qin Chuan did not give him this opportunity.

"Bang!" Another gunshot, Qin Chuan killed a Soviet machine gunner.

This machine gun was obviously carefully arranged... Most machine gunners would place the machine gun in a position with a wide line of sight, so that they could block as many enemies as possible.

But this machine gun was not, it was placed at the window position on the second floor, about one meter back, so that because of the angle, the machine gun could block the two main passages from a high position, while the bullets fired by the German soldiers from bottom to top mostly hit the window eaves.

But this machine gunner obviously did not expect the enemy to appear at the height of another building, so he could only be the loser.

"Bang!" Another gunshot.

This time the one knocked down was an officer, an officer holding a PPSh submachine gun and shooting out of the window... Qin Chuan had to admit that it was his own mistake. After pulling the trigger, he realized that the mission this time was to capture prisoners. Obviously, even Qin Chuan himself did not successfully transform from the previous state.

So Qin Chuan could only pray in his heart that the officer he killed was not the target, otherwise the mission would have failed because of his own mistake.
