Chapter 5129: Bloody battle

Lin Rui's hands trembled a bit. He sat at the command post and rubbed his head with his hands, trying his best to restore himself to normal.
After concentrating and calming down for a while, he seemed to clean up the lingering sounds in his ears. He felt all kinds of feelings in his heart, but the more at this time, Lin Rui knew that he needed to calm down.
And the way he calmed himself down was to order the various ministries to report on the situation. Only when the mind is moving, do you not think of other things. He must stay focused now.
The communications staff kept reporting the battlefield situation.
The assault team led by the fourth squadron has entered a position east of the first line and resisted the enemy's charge. The enemy retreated several times and attacked several times.
The enemy forces broke through the fire blockade twice and fought fiercely with the fourth squadron. They did not repel the enemy until about 40 minutes.
On the right, the assault team led by the first squadron charged continuously, approached the third squadron, and was attacked by the enemy. Breaking through the enemy's light armored guns and firing continuously, they continued to reinforce and successfully supported the third squadron, but the assault on the right was blocked.
The center assault team led by the sixth squadron exchanged fire with the enemy troops of a company that broke into the first line. They stubbornly stick to the obstacles of the existing fortifications. Until the fifth squadron set off from the flanks of the first-line position, coordinated to launch an attack.
The fifth squadron broke through the enemy's defense line under a rain of bullets, then violently exploded with a grenade, advancing steadily, and the enemy retreated step by step until 19:20. Just occupied the southwest corner of a line of positions. However, the enemy who had penetrated in from the north end was still stubbornly resisting with the fortifications.
At this time, the enemy troops in the rear rushed to reinforce, and the fifth squadron was in danger of being cut off and had to retreat halfway.
Currently there is only the fourth squadron in charge of the left flank, which is in a state of failure. After they set off from the forward position, they marched forward in a scattered manner, and once they reached a first-line position, they immediately seized the favorable terrain and made a brave assault.
With an unpredictable force, after repelling more than 100 Orumi Federal Forces that had entered the first-line position, they followed and pursued. Return to the left side of the entire position again.
The remaining enemies repeatedly stubbornly resisted based on the strong fortifications of the second-line position. The officers and soldiers charged in blood, and at the same time, they attacked in a roundabout way and attacked from the side. Finally, the enemy gave up part of the position and fled south.
After the fourth squadron on the left occupied a first-line position, it pursued the victory and cooperated with the center assault team to attack the Orumi EFF in the front.
It was already two o'clock in the morning, and the Orumi Federal Forces were stubbornly defending with fierce firepower. At present, the fourth squadron of the left team has completed the assault mission, with many officers and soldiers casualties.
If the confrontation continues, there may be reinforcements from the enemy, so they will pretend to attack while holding on to the occupied positions. At this moment, the captain of the fourth squadron ordered to withdraw before dawn. Construct fortifications on the original front line, and strictly guard.
Lin Rui nodded after hearing the report, "This fourth squadron played well. Who is in charge of the fourth squadron?"
"The commander of the Fourth Squadron originally belonged to the Lincoln Corps of Group B. Later, it was Yang Huaitao, a company commander in charge of training the training camp." Correspondent Soldierhui reported.
"So it was him." Lin Rui nodded. He remembered this person. This person was one of the Chinese mercenaries who went to Siberia for training with Lin Rui and others.
There is not much left of that group of people. And those who can remain are really ruthless characters.
It's just that Lin Rui didn't have much contact with this person. He has also been responsible for the training of executives in African countries.
Lin Rui nodded, "What about the Second Squadron and Third Squadron?"
"The second squadron lost more than 70%, and the remaining 30% had many wounded. Almost lost combat capability.
The situation of the third squadron is slightly better, and it is precisely because of their active defense that these 30% of the second squadron can be saved. But according to incomplete statistics, their losses currently exceed 40%.
Most of them were killed in enemy shelling. "The correspondent reports.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, the battle ended in a stalemate.
There was a strong smell of blood in the air, almost breathless. The frontal position that was still stunned just now, suddenly fell silent, which made people feel terrified and confused.
Lin Rui personally inspected the position in spite of his opposition.
The front of the position saw stumbling cars everywhere, most of which were armed pickup trucks. There are also scattered corpses. It looks like most of the vehicles were destroyed by anti-tank rockets.
The Orumi Federation soldier who died in the car had missing arms or legs. There was a half-slotted corpse in a car, and indistinguishable.
The driver in the cab was lying on the steering wheel, his head was blooming, and there was a big red and white flow under the pedals. This is enough to prove that at the height of the battle, the enemy's armed vehicles have penetrated into a line of positions.
Lin Rui moved his gaze to the battlefield again, and there were puddles of blood everywhere, and almost every spot was covered with blood.
Large blood stains and those accumulated in the crevices of the stone have not yet dried completely, and the small and scattered blood spots have been air-dried and turned into a magenta purple.
He couldn't feel all of this in the headquarters, only here did he truly feel the breath of war. The smell of blood and gunpowder fills the mind and makes every nerve of the person feel nervous.
"Hurry up and repair the fortifications. The stronger the better. After the enemy's attack is repelled, we will launch another charge tomorrow. We should quickly prepare!" The commander of the mercenary squad who is in charge of the position command is still letting him work. The brothers rushed to repair the fortification day and night.
After Lin Rui heard about it, he waved his hand, "Let the brothers take turns to rest. I need everyone to rest for at least two to three hours."
After giving the order, he took a few mercenary leaders and returned to the command post.
The actuary Jiang Kishi stayed up all night, with two red eyes guarding beside the map. The ashtray beside me was full of cigarette butts, and the coffee on the table was still hot.
"Go and rest for a few hours. During this time, the enemy won't attack anymore." Lin Rui looked at him.
"There are still some things that need to be dealt with, and they will be over soon. But there is one thing that is very serious at the moment." The actuary raised his head and looked at Lin Rui, "It is still the issue of ammunition reserves. In theory, our current ammunition reserves are enough for us. Hold on for one day.
But if there is still a high-intensity battle like today, I am afraid we may not be able to last until one day. "
"When will Hassan's logistics and transportation troops arrive?" Lin Rui asked in a low voice.
"We ordered him to leave first before we acted. But if he does arrive, he will have to wait until dark anyway.
That is, tomorrow, we must insist on a whole day. "The actuary looked at Lin Rui and said. "My thought is that we must now collect all the available ammunition on the ground."
Including the equipment and ammunition left by the enemy, for storage. In order to avoid the dilemma of insufficient ammunition. "
