Chapter 4617: Backing each other

The soldiers in these positions did not get much rest even during the intermission. They not only had to re-strengthen the fortifications, but also had to relocate the heavy machine guns.
Because the position of these heavy machine guns is very important in the position, they are all deployed in favorable terrain high up on the position, and they can directly attack the enemy's position with a wider line of sight. However, they are often hit by enemy forces. Taking advantage of the intermittent battles, redeploying firepower points can effectively hide and protect these important firepower points.
Several firepower points have been destroyed in this battle. Compared with the destruction of the machine gun, the machine gun shooter was killed.
Usually these experienced machine gunners will choose to shoot on the two wings of the assault soldier. The shooting is not a large-scale strafe, but a burst. Fire strikes at the most prominent position of the enemy, not blindly firing at the enemy.
And heavy machine gunners also have high shooting requirements and know how to make corrections based on the trajectory of the tracer. Both burst and short shots test the shooting skills of machine gunners. After the machine gunner was killed, he could only be replaced by a soldier who served as the deputy shooter.
This made Campbell, who had a small army, a little bit stretched in the use of soldiers. Not any ordinary infantry can be directly qualified as a machine gunner. Even if they have received a certain amount of machine gun shooting training, there will still be a significant gap compared with real professional machine gunners.
If this gap is manifested in the suppression of enemy firepower, the consequences can be imagined. Machine gun fire cannot suppress the enemy, and the enemy's charge will be unscrupulous. That's why Campbell felt too much pressure.
And Cassang did give him strong support. In addition to continuing to maintain the offensive on the main flank of the enemy, Cassang also specially allocated a portion of his troops to help Campbell hold the two encircled enemy camps tightly.
A dozen combat trucks under Kasan honked their horns and hurriedly rushed to reinforce Campbell's second unit. The second team is now responsible for besieging the Orumi enemy at a location far away from Height 9, which is currently the most tight location.
Kasan will rely on this elite to control the situation. His unit is a mixed unit, but it has good combat literacy and good equipment. Whether it is artillery or individual equipment, it is much better than other units. The firepower of the directly affiliated howitzer company, battle defense battery, communications company, and these directly affiliated units is stronger than that of an ordinary infantry battalion.
The southwest direction is the main breakthrough direction for the trapped troops of the Orumi Federal Army. The 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Division of the Orumi Federation is launching a fierce attack on the Anmor Army defending here. As the infantry charge unfolded, the artillery bombardment became more intense.
At this time, as long as there is a little space in the southwest, the northwest front line is also at risk. The Anmore Army there is being hit by the third battalion of the 3rd Division. After the loss of several combat vehicles, the Orumi Federal Army continues Increasing the offensive force on this line, and at the same time reinforcements also used artillery to cover their offensive, and the battle became increasingly fierce.
Although Anmore's second team was still fighting bravely, the casualties were heavy. At this time, apart from being a company in the reserve team, almost everyone had joined the battle. Due to the dangerous situation, the second unit command post has increased the defensive artillery reinforcement positions, and finally stopped the enemy's offensive and saved the position before the arrival of Kasan's supporting troops.
Half an hour later, an infantry battalion under Kasan took over the first-line defense in the southwest. Campbell's second team was ordered to move to the established position of the second line and take a break.
After Kasan's troops entered the position, they immediately deployed their defenses on the first line, with the second team on the right, guarding the area between the two lines, and the No. 9 high ground at a further position, guarding the area between the highlands on both sides of the northeast. The second team also has a reserve team, standing by between the two fronts. Stand ready to support positions in emergencies.
Kasan assigned his vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun company and mortar platoon to the battalion for direct control and mobile use. Guard the area between Murono and Route 4. In addition, an infantry battalion with good mobility was prepared as a reserve team, along with the artillery unit located on the northwest side of the rear, ready to maneuver. Do not enter the battle until the critical moment.
The Orumi Federal Army, which intended to break through, was blocked by the Kazan troops who had changed their defenses. They used the constructed positions and a large number of vehicle-mounted heavy weapons to command intensive firepower and fire downwards. This General Kasan's army is a fresh force that has just arrived, and its combat effectiveness is strong. In addition, the Orumi Federal Forces that broke through the siege have suffered heavy casualties due to their obvious targets and weak attack.
Subsequently, the Orumi Federal Army fired many artillery shells to cover the breakout operations of its two battalions. The explosion sounded loudly, and the fireworks skyrocketed. Despite the continuous artillery fire, the Anmor troops on the position still persisted in resisting, and with the flanking support of the flanking troops, the Orumi Federal Army's offensive still failed.
Set up in the headquarters of the Third Division in Murono town, reports from the front line continued, and the busy officers walked in a hurry. Staff officers are constantly marking the location of Anmore's troops on the battle map based on the latest reports.
As the commander of the Third Division, Elijah was distraught. The reinforcements were unable to attack for a long time, and the two battalions that were surrounded were still unable to break through the siege. In vaguely, Elijah seemed to feel that the development of the battle situation was a little weird. There must be something wrong, but he could not tell.
And Lin Rui and the mercenaries who had been out of sight of the battlefield had quietly moved to the side of Murono town, the location of Murono Reservoir. The whole team was quiet like a rock, crouching in the bushes on the side of the road.
In the gloom, two figures flashed quickly, lying down in the nearby thatch. At the same time, Lin Rui's communication headset rang rhythmically, and Lin Rui put down his weapon. He knew that it was Sausage who was in charge of the road reconnaissance and Sergey came back.
Sausage and Sergey were all gray, and Sausage took the initiative to report before Lin Rui could speak. "They don't have very strict defenses in the direction of the reservoir. We have conducted reconnaissance and probably have less than one company. And they look like logistic forces."
Lin Rui was silent for a while and nodded, "It is possible. Now most of their troops have been attracted by the battle ahead. It should be normal to ignore the defense here. Is the enemy's deployment and firepower configuration clear?"
"I wrote it all down. In fact, I think that if we touch them now, even if they alarm their troops, we can do something I didn't do before their large troops react." Sausage nodded.
"Try to be careful, and try not to expose if you can. Campbell and Kassan have helped us stabilize the situation in front. If we can do it without knowing it, it is natural and best. But if we can't. , What I want is speed." Lin Rui lowered his voice and looked at every team member.
"Understood, boss." The mercenaries nodded at him.
