Chapter 168 Yuan Lang was dumbfounded!!
Chapter 168 Yuan Lang was dumbfounded!!
Under the illumination of the flares in the sky, the darkness on the position was temporarily dispelled and it was illuminated as if it were daytime.
The 9th and 10th companies, with a total of more than one hundred soldiers, were bolder with the vision and began the pursuit without any worries.
Soon they caught up with the enemy and followed the Blue Army into the woods.
Everyone just wanted to kill the Blues, fearing that they would miss out if they ran too slowly.
The sound of gunfire crackled like firecrackers, mixed with the red lines of lasers shooting out, making the woods more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
But no matter how lively it is,
In reality, it rarely hits people.
On the one hand, it is difficult to control accurate shooting while moving, and on the other hand, there are too many obstructions in the woods, and most of the lasers are blocked.
Lasers are not real bullets and can't even penetrate leaves.
As the two sides were chasing each other, they soon reached the depths of the woods.
Sudden.
In the middle section of the Red Army's pursuit team, small black balls flew in from the dark woods on both sides, fell to the ground and exploded in puffs of white smoke.
The Red Army's formation was a little messed up by this sudden attack.
The Blue Army soldiers who were originally just running in front, as if they had planned it in advance, also had new changes at the moment the grenade exploded.
Uniform and tacit, like one person.
They all performed a difficult tactical move in unison - shooting while lying sideways.
While lying down, he turned the gun towards his back.
"Da da da da..."
The Blue Army's gunfire rang out.
From running forward quickly to lying down and fighting back, the whole process took less than two seconds.
This is the speed of Lao A!
At the same time, dozens of guns emerged from the woods on both sides and fired accurately at the pursuing Red Army.
Under the illumination of numerous gun muzzle flames, Yuan Lang seemed to be vaguely visible.
With that familiar grin on his face!
The Red Army troops that had been chasing them all the way were hit by grenades and then counterattacked by the Blue Army. The situation immediately took a 180-degree turn.
The Red Army soldiers at the front all suffered, and the Red Army soldiers in the middle were also in a miserable state.
The Blue Army’s firepower is so fierce!
In just a few seconds, more than a dozen Red Army soldiers were emitting white smoke.
I saw the sporadic light from the flares shining through the gaps in the leaves. There was already smoke ahead and more people were being eliminated.
The captain of the tenth company, who thought he was going to make a great contribution, was suddenly awakened by the scene before him.
A clear message came to mind -
They jumped into the Blue Army's ambush!
The captain of the Tenth Company felt a chill on his back and realized that things were getting very bad, that he had made a huge mistake, and that the Red Army was already in deep danger.
He immediately yelled at the top of his voice, "Oh no! We're ambushed! Retreat! Retreat quickly! Everyone, get out of the woods!"
The captain of the tenth company reacted quickly. He shouted retreat as soon as he was attacked and did not allow his troops to go any further, causing them to fall into the quagmire.
However, the position chosen by the Blues was too clever and their firepower was too fierce.
In addition, the Blue Army has the advantage of night vision goggles, and flares are extremely limited in effect in the woods, so there is no way to accurately find the Blue Army's position.
The most important thing was that the Red Army was suddenly attacked and was confused.
It was impossible to organize a counterattack on the spot. The brain, which was stimulated by adrenaline and was excited, was also frightened and trembled with fear.
When they heard the order given by the Tenth Company Captain, some people immediately turned around and ran.
One person leads a group and the whole situation is formed in an instant.
The Red Army soldiers turned around and ran in a swarm. They ran so panicky and chaotically and their vision was too dark. Many of them fell to the ground and many began to smoke.
Various screams of pain and angry curses rang out amid the dense gunfire.
When the Red Army reappeared outside the woods, their numbers were obviously much smaller than before, and they had no formation at all. They just ran towards the 035 position.
What a tragic scene of abandoning all weapons and armor!
"Puff~puff~"
New flares rose into the sky.
The remnants of the Red Army, having regained their vision, ran even faster than in the woods, and some of them were able to start fighting back while running.
Perhaps the harvest from this wave is already huge, or perhaps the risk of chasing it out is too high.
The Blues did not chase out of the woods!
When the dejected commander of the 035th Company led his remaining soldiers back to Hill in a hurry, he found that nearly half of the people had returned.
"It's over! It's over!"
Seeing such a horrific battle record, the captain of the tenth company looked dazed and sat down on the ground.
Just because of one of their own wrong and risky mistakes, the Red Army was ambushed by the Blue Army and suffered such heavy losses that only one company was left after two companies were defeated.
The captain of the tenth company was very clear that his life was basically over.
The most serious case is demobilization, and the lightest is demotion.
Even though the captain of the ninth company did not lead the team to pursue the Blue Army, his face looked miserable at this moment, not much better than the captain of the tenth company.
He failed to manage his company well, resulting in only one platoon left in the company.
His punishment afterwards was not light!
really.
The punishment for the two was quickly issued.
"Idiots, a bunch of idiots."
When the news of what happened at the 035 position reached the regiment headquarters, Captain Wang was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed.
This was not enough to satisfy his anger, so he immediately gave a stern order: "Immediately inform the Second Battalion to remove the two idiots from their positions as company commanders, and have the deputy company commanders of each company serve as acting company commanders.
Also, let them both roll over to the battlefield and clear their glued brains."
Captain Wang's roar resounded throughout the First Battalion headquarters. The powerful aura of pressure brought by his anger was so strong that no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere became extremely serious.
Compared to Captain Wang Qingrui who was so angry that he was fuming, Yuan Lang from the Blue Army was smiling particularly happily.
Just because this harvest came by accident!
It turns out that Yuan Lang's unethical strategy is to surround a point and attack its reinforcements, which is to use Sun Tzu's Art of War.
By besieging the three Red Army positions, the Blue Army created the appearance of an all-out attack, confusing the Blue Army's command, and thus proceeding to the second step.
They deliberately picked the 9th Company, which suffered the most serious losses, and launched a step-by-step approach to its position.
Yuan Lang had studied Captain Wang's character and knew that if the Red Army's position was attacked, he would definitely not choose to abandon the position, but would choose to send troops to support.
Yuan Lang had already made preparations and had ventured around to the front of Hill 035.
As long as the Red Army's support troops arrived, Yuan Lang, who had already made all preparations for the attack halfway, would lead the third team to ambush them.
The entire combat process only takes two minutes, and after the battle, retreat immediately regardless of the situation.
With the advantage of night vision goggles, you can definitely retreat safely.
There was only two minutes to react. Not only was it impossible for the Red Army's tank units to arrive, even the artillery units did not have time to lock on and fire.
They come and go without a trace, and run away after fighting, never lingering in a fight.
This is Yuan Lang’s strategy!
We don't seek to completely wipe out the Red Army's support forces, as long as we can kill one platoon or more, it will be a great victory.
Unexpectedly, the captain of the tenth company did not take the usual route and chose to run past the high ground, just in time to avoid Yuan Lang's ambush circle, making Yuan Lang's advance preparations in vain.
But this did not pose any problem for Yuan Lang. He took advantage of the situation and came up with a better idea.
He notified Qi Huan via radio to cooperate in the act, pretending to be caught off guard by the Red Army's surprise attack, and retreated all the way to the location he designated.
Yuan Lang led his troops from the other side and ran at full speed to set up an ambush.
This is how the perfect ambush came about, luring the enemy deep into the territory and luring them into a trap.
The original goal was to kill only a platoon, but because of Yuan Lang's top emergency thinking, it was eventually upgraded to killing 65 Red Army soldiers in one fell swoop.
The Blue Army only lost two soldiers in the entire battle.
no doubt.
This is a big win!
Looking at the smoke-filled Red Army in the woods, Qi Huan swept away the bad luck he had in the morning on Hill 034, and became full of energy and vigor again.
"Captain, your trick is really brilliant. You've wiped out half of the company in one go. The Red Army will cry to death when they go back. Haha." Qi Huan laughed so happily.
"The mountains and jungles are the Achilles' heel of heavy infantry. Full mechanization is their advantage, but it has become a burden for them here. Without the support of armored tanks and artillery, they are worse than the marines on land. It is normal to win against them."
Yuan Lang had a confident smile on his face, and then he looked at the time and it was almost half past eleven.
"The harvest tonight is good. You arrange it. Leave three groups here to play whack-a-mole. If the Red Army dares to leave their positions to dig traps and defend, knock them out. The rest of you prepare to call it a day and go home."
Yuan Lang wanted to use these three positions to consume all of the Red Army's infantry, so the Red Army must not be allowed to leave their positions to deploy defenses.
"Okay, Captain, I'll go right away."
After receiving the order, Qi Huan passed it on to the other two action teams via radio.
The two action teams that received the order stopped their attack on the high ground, retreated from the bottom of the high ground, and prepared to retreat back into the woods.
"Puff~~" Two dazzling lights suddenly rose above the 2 high ground 033 kilometers away.
"That's the direction of Hill 033. Didn't the First Action Team already retreat? Why are there still flares?" Yuan Lang said puzzled.
Qi Huan was a little confused for a moment, and could only call out through the radio: "Calling the First Action Team, this is the squadron headquarters, what's the situation over there? Didn't I tell you to retreat? Why are you still fighting?"
"Report, we are under attack, report, we are under unknown attack, hiss..."
The First Action Team responded hastily, but before they could explain the reason, the other end started to make a series of electric sounds.
"What? Were you attacked?"
When Yuan Lang and Qi Huan heard the news, it was as exaggerated as if they had heard that dinosaurs had been resurrected. The smiles on their faces froze in an instant.
Yuan Lang was only thinking about how to make the Red Army run around in circles and win a great victory tonight.
I really never dreamed that I would become a pie in the eyes of others, and that a dignified Old A would be attacked by a grassroots group.
I was so focused on other people's food that I didn't realize that the food in my own bowl had been stolen by them.
This is unbelievable!!
If they hadn't heard the communication with their own ears, the two would have thought it was a joke.
……
Time goes back a few minutes.
After receiving the squadron headquarters order conveyed by Qi Huan, the First Action Team stopped attacking Hill 033 and retreated to the woods from the hill in an orderly manner.
Then they prepared to go through the dense woods to meet up with Yuan Lang's troops and return to the camp.
Along the way, the old As from the First Action Team were very satisfied with the results of tonight's battle. Not only did they cover Yuan Lang in completing the ambush, but they also gained certain benefits themselves.
No one on the team was eliminated, and they comfortably won 10 Red Army eliminations.
If there were two or three more such attacks, the combat effectiveness of the Red Army's armored infantry would be completely destroyed, and they would completely lose the ability to attack the heights.
The armored vehicles had no way to climb up to the heights, and without the infantry they could only look at the heights in despair.
All the old A's had an attitude of winner, treating the Red Army as cakes on the chopping board, and only thinking about how to eat them slowly.
I never thought that I would become the cake and be targeted by others who want to eat them.
It doesn’t mean that all Mr. A’s are arrogant and look down on others.
Instead, they had already fought four confrontations before, all of which were against fully mechanized and heavily armed troops, and Old A was able to defeat the enemy unilaterally in each battle.
No one is a saint, and it is impossible to be free from desires.
If you win too much, you will naturally become overconfident and feel like you are at the top of the food chain.
It's like the tiger, the king of the jungle. When facing sheep, which he thinks are food, he will definitely not be on guard at all and think that the sheep will be a threat to him.
Old A's have already identified themselves as tigers, so naturally they don't think sheep will pose a threat to them.
I don't know.
Some people took advantage of this psychological gap and carefully prepared a grand welcome "party", waiting to give the old A's a surprise.
The reason why the First Action Team was chosen was simply because they were unlucky.
The First Action Team, who had no idea that they had become prey and were carefully plotted against, returned to the woods from which they came, and did not feel that there was any threat there.
However, when they all entered the woods, an unexpected accident happened.
"Puff puff puff puff..."
A total of 10 flares were fired at the same time.
When flares burn, the light they emit is extremely dazzling. After all, even if they fly to a height of several dozen meters, they can illuminate the ground as bright as day.
Of the ten flares fired, only two were fired into the sky.
And eight of them were actually launched horizontally.
That's right.
It was aimed at Old A.
The eight flares were positioned very strategically, hitting four directions without bias, just surrounding the Old A Action Team that had entered the woods.
Even though all the flares hit the ground, the nearest Old A was still two or three meters away.
But the twenty old A's were all scared to death!
Not only do flares burn extremely violently, but if they hit a person they could burn them to death, making them absolutely lethal.
Hitting people, and a crowd of people, during an exercise is simply crazy.
There was no rule in the exercise that forbade firing flares at people because no one had ever done so before, and no one expected someone to be so bold as to do so.
Therefore, there is no explicit provision in the exercise rules prohibiting the firing of flares at people.
It doesn't mean that you can do this just because there are no regulations.
The old A's had no time to think about why the Red Army appeared here. They were so angry that they wanted to catch the madman who thought of using flares to hit people and beat him up.
But they were in a difficult situation at the moment and had no time to spare.
Because under the strong light of the flares, the old A's wearing night vision goggles were like being hit by a flash bomb, and everyone's eyes were bright white.
There was also Mr. A who saw nothing but darkness in front of his eyes, and his night vision goggles were directly burned by the strong light.
The night vision goggles that originally gave them an overwhelming advantage in this night battle became a burden to them at this moment.
Old A's are all "blind"!
Fortunately, the old A's were special forces after all, their reaction speed and physical fitness were far beyond ordinary people, and they instinctively made a defense at the first time.
Even if you are blind and can't see the enemy, your body will instinctively start looking for cover.
However, no matter how fast the reaction speed of Old A was, they were the first to fall into the ambush of the Red Army, and no matter how fast they reacted, they could not be faster than the first.
"Da da da……"
The sound of gunfire following the flares was fired at the Old A's from three directions.
Even though their bodies could instinctively find cover, five of Old A's men were still beaten to the point where white smoke was coming out of their mouths, becoming the first wave of victims of the ambush.
The flares continued to burn on the ground, illuminating an area of dozens of meters in radius.
Even if the old A's took off their night vision goggles and looked for cover as quickly as possible, they could not escape the Red Army's pervasive guns.
"Retreat, retreat out of the woods."
"Smoke bomb cover, quick."
The squad leader of the First Action Team was very strong. He knew from the sound of gunfire that the Red Army troops attacking them must have no fewer than sixty people.
Under such a large-scale attack, they had no chance to fight back.
Not to mention special forces.
Even if Superman comes, he will have to turn into a beehive.
Since there is no possibility of counterattack, don't fight even for a second. The only solution is to withdraw from the battle as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, even a second late in evacuation could result in the sacrifice of one more soldier.
The captain of the First Action Team made a decisive decision, and the Blue Army's leading advantage in equipment remained, which gave them a chance to escape.
"Puff puff……"
Several smoke bombs were thrown and detonated.
As a large amount of smoke filled the woods, the Red Army quickly lost sight of the Blue Army and could only shoot into the smoke based on their senses.
"Deputy Captain, do you want to catch up with him?"
The third platoon leader was so excited that his face turned red, and he asked Chen Jun who was standing next to him.
As long as Chen Jun nodded, he would immediately lead his men to charge.
"No, don't chase after desperate enemies. We can't outrun them in the jungle, and chasing after them is useless. We might even fall into their trap. Their boss is not an ordinary person, and he is not that easy to deal with."
No one expected Chen Jun, who came out specifically to purchase goods, to appear here, but this unexpected thing brought him a rich harvest.
Chen Jun was also very satisfied with his current achievements. He understood the principle of knowing when to quit better than anyone else.
Before this stage of the exercise, the Red Army had been attacked unilaterally by the Blue Army, suffering heavy losses and could only defend helplessly.
The third platoon leader felt extremely honored and proud to be able to participate in the ambush of the Blue Army.
Personally, he really wanted to catch up and beat the fallen dog. Even if he would be the first to be eliminated in the pursuit, he would not hesitate at all.
However, Chen Jun was not planning to pursue, so the third platoon leader could only put away his excitement.
Wait for the smoke to clear and reap the fruits of victory.
after all……
There are already quite a few blue troops in the smoke!!
The confrontation exercise had been going on for a day, but most of the Red Army had not yet seen what the Blue Army looked like because the bodies of the Blue Army had been recovered by them.
Tonight's attack was so sudden and fierce that the Blues had no time to take the bodies away.
As long as all these Blue Army soldiers were packed up and taken away, even if they were already "corpses" killed in battle, it would give the Red Army a great morale boost.
The Second Battalion, which suffered heavy losses, was particularly in need of boosting its low morale.
These blues are the best stimulants!!
