The last charge

"This is the enemy's defensive position. Their camp was originally on three commanding heights around the road, and the enemy set up three Y-shaped fortifications.

The inclined trench was dug temporarily, with firing bunkers built at the top and on both sides; the longitudinal trench was similar to the "T"-shaped trench, about four to five meters long.

Various types of obstacles such as minefields and barbed wire were set up under the mountain. It was originally their training ground, and everything was temporarily arranged.

But it works. Many of our charges were blocked by them. "The Somali youth army officer pointed to the map and explained to their commander, Hokiah.

After Hoqia finished marking on the map, he took a deep breath. If you don't know the enemy's situation and rush up again, I don't know how many brothers' lives will be sprinkled on this piece of sand in vain.

Seeing that the sky is getting brighter and brighter, the position is still quiet. The discipline of these mercenaries is excellent, and no one walks on them. No one opened fire without authorization.

But there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder in the air, and the atmosphere of a war was coming quietly.

The officer looked at Hoqia and asked, "Sir, are we going to continue the attack?"

"Be patient and organize." Hoqia said with determination, "We will play the forward in this battle. If it doesn't work..." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of rumbling cannons in the distance.

Hoqia couldn't help but turned her head and looked into the distance.

There was the direction of Albat's camp, and there were still gunshots coming from there. It means that the camp over there has not been taken.

Now the Somali youth army is completely in a very embarrassing situation.

Originally, they raided at night, but now they can't attack for a long time, and it's already dawn.

Moreover, the Somali Federal Forces camp in Albat failed to achieve effective results. If you persist, the follow-up variables are too large.

Their Somali youth army is not what it used to be, and a few years ago they were able to lay siege to Mogadishu.

But in recent years, the Somali youth army has suffered heavy losses several times.

Although the Somali federal forces are still not their opponents, the African Union forces and the US military intervene. The Somali youth army has been severely damaged.

The fiasco not long ago cost thousands of people. Under the current circumstances, insisting on fighting here for a long time is by no means a wise choice.

"Sir, one more thing, our tanks have... been destroyed by the enemy. I'm afraid we don't have the support of tank artillery fire." The officer whispered.

"Four tanks..." Hoqia clenched his fists, "Four tanks are gone... But it doesn't matter, we still have combat vehicles. Organize all the combat vehicles, and I'm going to launch a large-scale charge. "

The advancing troops of the Somali Youth Army were blocked in a long and narrow open space.

Hoqia ordered all vehicles capable of combat to be deployed in front of the enemy's fire. Mortars and other heavy firepower for artillery coverage.

The three positions of the mercenaries are mainly on the southeast side, and the other two flank positions are intertwined with each other, and fire crosses fire on both sides.

The terrorists of the Somali Youth Army launched two consecutive attacks without success. They were blocked at the front of the position, and there was a danger of being bombarded by the infantry support weapons of the mercenaries at any time.

Hoqia watched as the soldiers who followed him were suppressed by the artillery fire of the mercenaries, and were also shot down in pieces by the enemy's dark fire from an unknown direction.

His eyes were red, and the blood on his body was burning like fire. He couldn't take it any longer. So, they attacked the mercenaries again fiercely. As they charged, they fired at the mountain.

Combat vehicles with machine guns are advancing, not only providing cover for the infantry, but also relying on the machine guns on the vehicle to move the fire point. The terrorists of the Somali Youth Army followed closely behind the vehicle and attacked in a low position.

Because the mercenaries' anti-aircraft machine guns, light and heavy machine guns in the firepower are well hidden, and often change their positions, these vehicles are basically ineffective.

And the vehicle is not a tank. A thin layer of iron without armor protection can easily be scattered by large-caliber machine guns.

The Somali youth army is getting more and more angry. After rushing up a gentle slope, it attacked continuously.

Another vehicle belonging to the Somali youth army was destroyed and burned violently with black smoke.

The infantry who followed closely behind the vehicle, because of the loss of this barrier, were immediately exposed to the firepower of the mercenaries.

The bullets that were fired one after another hit the more than 20 Somali youth army terrorists like raindrops, and their bodies were instantly stained with red-painted blood.

After the failure of the tank attack, the company that followed the attack also retreated to the starting position.

The failure of the two offensives gave Somali youth army commander Hoqiya a taste of the wreckage. He stood at the headquarters with a frown, staring at the position in front of him.

They were tasked with rescuing the eagle Ethiopia. According to his intention, they must complete the encirclement of the enemy within five hours.

Seeing that not to mention five hours, eight hours have passed, and the troops are blocked and cannot move forward.

If these mercenaries are not taken down, the plan to rescue Ethiopia will be impossible to talk about.

If the troops are unable to pass for a long time, the overall plan to complete the rescue will fail. There was no way, he had to gamble now.

At the mercenary's position, the mercenaries took advantage of the break in the battle to rest.

But Lin Rui was not qualified to rest. He had to check back and forth between positions during the breaks in the battle.

After walking around, and then returning to the position, he also sat wearily in the corner. Reaching out and feeling in his pocket, he realized that the cigarette was finished.

He walked over quickly and threw the half of the cigarette he was smoking to him.

Lin Rui nodded ~www.readwn.com~ took a few sips and gave it back to him.

"How about the other positions?" Kuaima asked.

"It's okay. At least it's better than us here. How about it, have you never experienced such a situation?" Lin Rui looked at the fast horse.

"I've experienced worse. It was in the mountains of Afghanistan. We were besieged by thousands of terrorists. In the end, there were only a dozen people left." Kuaima sighed, "That's probably the worst I've ever experienced. situation.”

Lin Rui shook his head, "The situation is different now? You were in the U.S. military at that time. As long as the communication is not interrupted, you can call in gunships at any time to rescue you from danger. You can also call for artillery cover.

We don't have anything to fall back on right now. Only on your own. "

Kuaima was silent for a while, "It's better to rely on others than yourself. Sometimes you will find that there is nothing worth relying on."

"That's right, if you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself." Lin Rui nodded.
