Chapter 18: Tactical Obstruction

  Shaking off the helicopter's complete air control strike, the Lurker Mercenary Corps quickly advanced east along the coastline to rescue Mandra and Sworte who were under attack.

  This mission was a failed mission, the root cause of failure is intelligence source. The intelligence source was not wrong, but it was not accurate enough, and any battle has sudden irreversibility, plans are far from changing fast.

  What needs to be done now is to rescue Sworte and Mandrake immediately and retreat. The mission has failed, so we must retreat. It's impossible for the lurkers to continue this meaningless battle.

  "Zzzt..." The sound of electricity filled the air as Swartz's pre-arranged time to turn on the wireless arrived, and he immediately activated it to contact Black Hawk.

  "Headquarters, requesting assistance, requesting assistance!" The Black Hawk emitted a urgent voice, with a dense gunfire sound mixed in the background.

  "Received, received, en route, en route!" The Black Hawk immediately responded to the inquiry: "Report enemy formation and position!"

  "Defender mercenaries! Defender mercenaries! Strategic south 9, 10, 12, 1, and 3 o'clock directions, coastal ring-shaped encirclement! Repeat, strategic south 9, 10, 12, 1, and 3 o'clock directions, coastal ring-shaped encirclement!"

  "Roger that! Roger that! ETA two minutes, two minutes!" The Black Hawk killed the radio and yelled out loud: "Alright guys, step it up, Swartz and Mandrake are waiting for our rescue!"

  A group of mercenaries swiftly dashed through the mountains and forests, heading straight for the eastern coastline.

  Upon hearing Svartheim's confirmation of the enemy, Black Eagle immediately understood what was going on: The Norwegian government had hired the Guardians mercenaries to avoid sending troops and getting interference.

  In general, modern warfare employs large numbers of mercenaries. These hired guns take on the role of shock troops, and once they have completed the most dangerous first phase of a strategic deep operation, they hand over the positions to regular national military forces, then either leave for their pay or continue in employment.

  Each country is happy to spend money hiring mercenaries to help them complete the first step of strategic military action in regional or small-scale wars, which will reduce casualties among soldiers, as the first strategic action is the most dangerous.

  At this time, the Norwegian hired Guardian mercenaries were mainly to clear obstacles for their troops. If the guess is correct, the Norwegian side has already known that the Taliban's southern armed forces have hired lurking personnel to stop them, and in order to ensure the dispatch of troops, they have spent a lot of money to hire Guardian mercenaries who can counter the lurking personnel.

  。

  Only a small number of defenders remained at the base, their main task was to pin down the ambushers and prevent them from catching up with the Norwegian troops who had already departed.

  "Bang! Bang! …… " The rhythmic gunfire was getting closer and closer, Zhao Ziyang and other hidden troops had approached the coastline of Donghai.

  Through the gradually sparse forest, you can clearly see those scattered wooden houses, as well as the Defender mercenaries that suddenly appear from the sea.

  At this time, the Guardian mercenaries occupied the beach under the cover of strong firepower and fired at Mandrake hiding in the wooden house. Swatt, who set up a satellite receiver on the mountain top, was subjected to three-way angled shooting, but from time to time used the rock cover to shoot down and cover Mandrake.

  Luckily, Sworte occupied the high ground, otherwise Mandala wouldn't have been able to hold onto these fragile wooden houses. Even so, Mandala was already in a precarious situation, with fewer and fewer houses left for her to defend, most of them having been destroyed by the defenders' handheld rocket launchers.

  Approaching the eastern coastline of Vogel Island, Black Hawk crossed his arms in front of his chest and quickly swung his right palm forward, charging forward with his gun.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!......" The black eagle, charging forward with eyes wide open, continuously fired the trigger with his right index finger, rapid-firing at the defenders of the beach.

  With a whoosh, the black eagle dived out of more than ten meters and fell prone behind a protruding sandbank, quickly replacing the magazine. After replacing the magazine, he immediately took cover behind the sandbank and continued to fire at the coast guard mercenaries without interruption.

  "Bang! Bang!" Pandora burst out of the mountain forest, two shots forcing the two point defenders to dodge, and then quickly rushed past the Black Hawk to a distance of five or six meters. Then, with both feet exerting force forward and downward, she made herself fall down while completing two ground rolls forward, occupying a rock shelter the size of a millstone.

  "Bang! Bang!......" Seeing the Black Hawk and Pandora complete the alternate cover and deep battle tactics at an extremely fast speed, the Guardian mercenaries immediately concentrated their firepower on the two.

  Their shooting is very sophisticated, uniformly adopting accurate burst firing, while saving the most ammunition, pursuing the most accurate shooting effect.

  "Boom... boom... boom..." The sand dunes in front of the Black Hawk were hit by several rounds, kicking up clouds of dust.

  。

  The sand and dust raised immediately blocked the black eagle's line of sight, forcing him to lower his head. But this shooting that blocked his vision did not stop, still coming one after another, raising the sand in front of him even higher.

  Black Hawk's line of sight is blocked and unable to fire effectively, pushing Pandora to the edge of danger.

  The rocky core used as a shield by Pandora has many pores, typical of acidic rocks formed by volcanic eruptions. The rock is grayish white in color and relatively fragile, unable to withstand the impact of bullets for long periods of time.

  "Rat-a-tat-tat..." The bullets hit the rock face, covering all of Pandora's shooting angles, forcing her to crouch behind the rocks for cover.

  The alternate cover tactic with the Black Eagles was abruptly interrupted, unable to advance or retreat, and fell into an extremely embarrassing and dangerous situation.

  The original plan for M134 was to burst out as the third wave to suppress with heavy firepower, but it's impossible to rush out now. The defender mercenary released Black Hawk and Pandora immediately after adjusting the vitality, locking down this passage.

  "Sparkle!" Angie exclaimed Sparkle.

  "Understood!" Shandian responded with a single word, and several people rushed into the forest, agilely climbing to the top of a large tree and picking up a sniper rifle.

  Bang!

  A sniper's shot rang out, and the Spark that had just climbed up the tree fell to the ground with a thud. His abdomen was instantly stained red with blood, his body convulsed in spasms, his face turned blue with bulging veins, revealing unbearable pain.

  "Flash!" Zhao Ziyang rushed over, pulled out a morphine injection and administered it to Flash, cut open his combat uniform, revealing the penetrating wound in his abdomen.

  The wound was as big as an adult's fist, with skin and flesh rolled up, and dark red blood kept gushing out, which couldn't be stopped by hand.

  "No... nothing..." With a flash of effort, he restrained his convulsing body and said to Zhao Ziyang: "Bullet trajectory at 30 degrees angle on the right side, sniper position at 11.5 o'clock direction..."

  After finishing this sentence, Shanshan took a deep breath and moved Zhao Ziyang's hand away, using her own hands to press down on the wound.

  Zhao Ziyang retracted his hand and saw a small piece of smooth-skinned flesh stuck to his bloody palm, his pupils shrinking: the right kidney was shattered by the bullet.

  ！

  "Angel, eleven thirty direction!" Zhao Ziyang shouted loudly at Angel, then tore apart the clothes on her abdomen, poured a bottle of medicinal alcohol to flush the wound, pulled out a hemostatic bandage and quickly wrapped it around, and finally dragged Angel to a safe area.

  "Leave me alone..." Weak to the extreme under severe injury, Shan Dianweng moved his lips and said to Zhao Ziyang, his eyelids unable to support themselves and closing.

  "Brother, hold on a bit, everything will pass." Zhao Ziyang put the flashlight on the ground and turned to run to the exit with his gun.

  At this time, Angie had already agilely thought of a mountain forest and slipped away. The big tree that flashed and climbed earlier was the only place where the defender of the beach could be ambushed. But this ambush point has become a dead zone, Angie must find another ambush point.

  "Boom! Boom!......" The defender continued to use burst suppression on the Black Hawk and Pandora, making it impossible for the two men who had initially taken the lead to complete their tactical coordination.

  A loud crack was heard and Pandora's box finally burst open, splitting into four or five pieces of rock that came crashing down.

  A small rock crashed into Pandora's right eyebrow, tearing open a bloody gash. Fresh blood immediately flowed down from the wound, covering Pandora's right eye.

  Pandora, with her right eye covered in blood, didn't even have time to wipe it clean. Her entire body immediately rolled to the right side. During the roll, she switched from her right-hand gun to her left-hand gun and fired rapidly while rolling.

  Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!......

  Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, several bullets shot towards the defenders' mercenaries suppressing Black Hawk, forcing the defenders at 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock and 12 o'clock positions to take a brief cover. At the same time, Pandora took out a hand grenade in her hand for nearly two seconds, suddenly stopped her body's rolling, stuck to the sand and threw it towards the enemy position at 1 o'clock and 3 o'clock.

  With a loud "boom", the grenade flew tens of meters along the surface of the beach before exploding violently. The soft sand was blown up fiercely in the explosion, forming a sand curtain that blocked the view of the defending mercenaries.

  "Rat-a-tat-tat..." The explosive sound of gunfire erupted, and Om's massive body burst out of the mountain forest, firing the M134 trigger while taking large strides forward, suppressing the defending mercenaries with heavy firepower.

  At the same time, Scythe Hand and Blade Edge burst out simultaneously, advancing rapidly forward under Omo's cover to join forces with Pandora and launch an attack on the Defender.

  Zhao Ziyang joined forces with Heiying, and together with Ao Mo, the three of them formed a dense firepower network to defend against the attackers from the 9, 10, and 12 o'clock directions.

  "Rat-a-tat-tat..." "Bang! Bang!......"

  Gunfire erupted, bullets whizzed by, and the defenders' previous advantage was immediately lost, forcing them to fight with the infiltrators on the beach using makeshift cover and tactical maneuvers.

  "Change magazines!" Zhao Ziyang shouted loudly, his body crouching down to replace the magazine.

  Aomo immediately filled in.

  "Alright!" Zhao Ziyang, who had finished replacing the magazine, stuck his head out and continued firing.

  Both sides unfolded a life-and-death struggle on the small beach, with whizzing bullets constantly flying over their heads and beside them, bringing waves of scorching pain.

  A dark shadow fell straight down from the cliff.

  With a "splash", Swarte jumped into the sea from a 100-meter-high cliff.

  "Grenades ready!" Black Hawk gave the order over the radio.

  Apart from Aimo continuing to suppress with heavy firepower, all other mercenaries took out hand grenades.

  "Throw!"

  "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." One by one, the dark and sinister hand grenades flew out of his hands, thrown towards the defender mercenaries.

  Boom! Boom! Boom! ... The grenade exploded violently after landing, and the fine yellow sand was blown up by the air generated by the explosion, and a sandstorm fell in the air.

  It's a waste of effort, at least on the surface. Because the distance between the two is as much as 200 meters, the hand grenade can't possibly harm the other side, only adding some noise and gunpowder smoke to the battle.

  "Grenade ready!" "Throw!"

  Another hand grenade was thrown over, equally ineffective, only the sand stirred up became thicker, but far from enough to block the view of both sides.

  It seems that Black Hawk's command has deviated, this is a completely wrong tactic.
