Chapter 5049: Anti-tank trench

Just as the commander of the Jihad Alliance was at a loss, Kagawa Kenichi walked into the command post.
"Why stopped shelling and charging?" Kagawa Kenichi asked.
"The enemy has deployed heavy artillery. In the previous round of shelling, our losses were very serious. I cannot risk being counterattacked by the enemy's heavy artillery and continue to bombard the enemy." The commander shook his head.
Kagawa Kenichi shook his head, "I have seen the scene. Although a large amount of shrapnel was found on the scene, the attack was not shelled by the enemy. The enemy was not equipped with heavy artillery."
"What's going on? Is it our own people?" The secret society commander said quietly.
Kagawa Kenichi shook his head, "This is a way to modify roadside bombs with artillery shells, a common method in the Middle East. Use multiple artillery shells to remove the fuses and connect them in series to make explosives.
Put it on the side of the road and cover it with sand. Detonate accurately when you pass by.
The shrapnel and shock waves produced by the explosion will cause you great damage. But this is not the main thing.
The main thing is that they blow up two-thirds of the small sand dunes over there. Let your current assembly point be exposed to the enemy’s guns. "
"You mean they ran to us quietly and planted a bomb? Just to blow up the sand dune?" The commander of the Jihadist League said with a strange expression. "They approached us secretly, but didn't attack us, secretly bury bombs?"
"Because this must be a small team, there is no strength to launch an attack. And they can see that the flanks of the dunes over there are our gathering points.
After each failed charge, we retreat, where we can quickly reorganize the offense without having to retreat to the rear.
This caused them considerable trouble. That's why they risked it. But this also exposed one of their problems even more. Their equipment and ammunition problems have indeed been quite serious.
That’s why they care about how often we attack. Because every time we charge, they are consuming a lot of ammunition. "Kagawa Ken smiled slightly. "Duke is really a magical calculation. "
"What do you mean?" The commander of the Jihad Alliance looked at him and asked.
"Nothing. Let's continue to launch an offensive against the enemy in accordance with our established plan." Kagawa Kenichi turned around and said, "This operation is successful. We can give you everything you want."
The commander of the Jihad Alliance nodded.
Under his orders, the terrorists of the Jihad Alliance rushed to the battlefield again. These terrorists have certain combat experience.
Everyone hunched their waists and moved quickly along the pre-arranged route. While advancing, they also knew how to cover each other's firepower, and bullets shot through the air from time to time.
Under the cover of two armored vehicles, this group of terrorists rushed straight into the battlefield, some of them rounded in as the left wing, and some others launched a feint attack on the right wing, and acted as the main attack at any time.
The armored car rushed up under the cover of choking smoke. The infantry behind, holding their rifles, made a flexible ZigZag movement and quickly approached the position.
The closer you get, the more intense the battle. On the battlefield, a lot of bunkers and trenches were temporarily excavated, almost indistinguishable from a small castle. The flames spewed from various firepowers from time to time showed a hideous killing intent.
A firepower point was hit by a light armored vehicle fired by terrorists, and the crater after the explosion was still full of blue smoke.
But the subsequent mercenaries immediately re-installed their machine guns to cover the opening.
Not far away, there are still multiple firepower points blocking the entire line of defense. Barbed wire fence temporarily pulled up at the front of the position. It has been blown to pieces by the grenades, curled into a ball, and some are still hanging.
It's hard to delay the enemy's charge. The Jihadist Alliance launched several assaults, but was immediately suppressed by the firepower of the machine guns covering each other.
Many desperadoes rushed up with grenade and bazooka, although most of them died in the charge. But many terrorists rushed up.
They are blowing up anti-tank trenches with explosives. Use the collapsed soil to fill the trenches.
The mercenaries who were supporting forces also went up. They quickly launched an offensive on the other side of the anti-tank trench, but were suppressed by the firepower of the enemy's armor.
A string of flames swept over violently, almost a conditioned reflex, and Kuaima and others fell directly to the ground and continued to crawl forward.
The bullet hit the ground, exploding dense clouds of dust. A few mercenaries were hit by bullets and crawled on the ground. After a convulsion, they stopped moving.
The wound fired by the large-caliber machine gun was quite terrifying, and blood shed all over the ground. The only fortunate thing is that they died very quickly and would not suffer too much.
Lin Rui put down the binoculars at the observation post, "They are in a very difficult situation. They use machine gun firepower to support them, and let the sniper team go over to cover them."
Scarface led people up.
"Set up a machine gun and hit me, let them see how good we are." Scarface cursed, urging the machine gunner to assemble the machine gun and fill it with bullets. Shoot directly at the opposite side.
The firepower of the M2 machine gun is not inferior to the opponent, but the opponent's light armor. Can't hold up such firepower. The large-caliber warhead hits the opponent's armored vehicle is also enough to make the opponent afraid.
This century-old gun accompanied the US military in World War II and the Vietnam War. Many former opponents have been retired and obsolete, but the M2 machine gun is still strong today.
It relies on the 12.7mm bullet, which can take into account anti-armor. In actual combat, simple fortifications such as sandbags can be easily penetrated, and light armor targets can be dealt with with ease.
It can penetrate a 20mm thick armor plate or a 13mm thick medium carbon steel plate.
In the hands of an experienced mercenary, the combat capability of the M2 machine gun can be maximized.
As soon as the machine gun on this side roared, the offensive on the opposite side instantly weakened a lot.
Armed pickup trucks mixed with armored vehicles to provide fire protection were relatively poor in protection, and several were destroyed on the spot.
As soon as the cover firepower of the opposite charge dropped, the firepower on the defensive position lost its effective suppression.
It is equivalent to indirectly activated, the other firepower points on the defensive position.
The armored vehicle, which was still arrogantly spitting out bullets, also began to retreat despite being fired by a large-caliber machine gun.
"well played!"
"Good job!" Many mercenaries shouted and whistled.
But even with such intensive firepower, it is impossible to take care of everyone.
A terrorist dynamite bag jumped out of the anti-tank trench, waved an engineer's shovel and jumped a few times, digging a shallow hole. I stuffed the dynamite bag in and quickly lit the fire.
There was a loud noise like thunder, and the earth shook violently and a puff of black smoke fell. The anti-tank trench rose up over there. The clods and sand were lifted into the sky, and then fell like raindrops.
