Chapter 446: They are all old guys (please collect, recommend and vote, please vote monthly)
“Damn, these guys are definitely veterans.” After entering the building, I found that it was simply unrealistic to clean the house here.
This group of Caucasians has directly opened the walls of adjacent rooms, making it impossible to clean them one by one.
With no other choice but to attack, Curtis took the grenade launcher off his back.
"Let the HCLI people drive directly through and use their MK-19 to attract some attention." Xu Chuan took out an M67 grenade from the ammunition bag behind him, pulled the safety catch and threw it out with his hand, and the little apple fell to the ground. It rolled out in an arc, followed by a deafening explosion.
Fortunately, they all wear sound pickup and noise reduction headphones, which can not only connect to PTT but also effectively reduce this high-decibel noise.
Of course, for indoor combat, it is best to use offensive grenades similar to MK3A2, which are light in weight, not so powerful, and less likely to hurt yourself.
However, people like Umbrella felt that that thing was not very powerful, and defensive grenades were commonly used.
With the explosion, Xu Chuan rushed in first. In this situation, it was a matter of competition to see who was faster. As for Umbrella's extremely close-range quick-reaction shooting, no one could beat him in terms of speed and hit rate.
The difficulty is to determine which direction the biggest threat comes from the moment you enter the door, then empty the magazine a few tenths of a second faster than the opponent, and then switch the pistol to point in the direction of the possible threat. By this time, your teammates have also followed up and cleaned up the area they are responsible for.
After that, Xu Chuan put on a new magazine, threw another grenade, and rushed towards the adjacent room before the opponent could react.
No matter what conspiracy this group of people was preparing, there were at least dozens of people entrenched in this building. It was the building with the most people that Xu Chuan and the others had ever encountered, and it was also the one with the strongest combat capabilities. They only advanced two rooms before they were captured. Blocked in the corridor.
For a time, grenades were flying all over the sky, and Curtis even kicked two back with his feet.
The outer wall suddenly trembled, and a grenade came through the window.
Seven or eight heavy-duty Humvees prepared by HCLI roared out of the nearby street. From the weapons station on the roof, MK19 and M2 heavy machine guns fired at the buildings on both sides of the road.
Then the pressure on Umbrella was greatly reduced. The other party only left a few people in the corridor to block them, and the rest had returned to their respective fighting positions. However, the firepower outside was too fierce, and these people could not raise their heads at all for a while.
The room they opened provided a very convenient route for Xu Chuan and the others. Two of them attracted the firepower of the defenders, and the remaining three people had already passed through the room and gone around to the back.
There was a burst of gunfire, and all the people blocking the road were shot in the back and fell to the ground.
Pike stood at the top of the stairs, holding a gun and keeping watch on the top. Someone flashed past on the second floor. The rest of the people joined together to check the first floor as a whole.
“Boss, come and take a look first.” Albert shouted, and Xu Chuan gave up his guard position to let Curtis get on top, and ran over with Smith.
In a room, a large pit was opened in the ground, sloping downwards. It should be connected to the drainage system. There were some sand and soil scattered on the surrounding ground. Xu Chuan dug twice and found an electric detonator in the soil.
“I don’t plan to go down and take a look.” Xu Chuan turned on the light and shined it into the hole. It was so dark that he couldn’t see anything.
"Let Rem and the others pick them up directly and tell them the situation here." I don't know how many explosives were piled inside. If it gets serious, the whole street might be blown up.
“Blow it up, I don’t want a few people to come out and stab me in the butt,” Xu Chuan said.
Curtis took out a piece of C4 explosive from his backpack and wrapped it with tape on a wooden bar and pushed it into the hole. He connected the electric detonator, wires and M57 detonator. After several people almost retreated to the gate, Curtis pressed the button to detonate. After three blows of the weapon, the ground shook momentarily, and a huge burst of smoke flew out.
Several people jumped out of the door and asked, "Oh, how much did you pack?"
“Williams, the smallest unit.” Curtis patted the dirt on his helmet and answered with a dismayed face.
Xu Chuan thought the building was going to collapse for a moment, but he had no time to pay attention to these things at this time. "Be careful, they are going to counterattack."
Wearing goggles, he rushed in again despite the smoke and dust all over the building. The ideal situation for this kind of building clearing operation is to launch an attack on the top floor and push the defender down. Not only does it take less physical effort to go downstairs, but it is also easier to throw grenades. It is convenient, and leaving the exit to the opponent can make the defender less determined to defend.
Of course, placing a fire team at the exit can wipe out the defenders who want to evacuate.
When moving from bottom to top, you not only need to take into account the firepower pouring down from all the floors above, but also press the defender upwards. There is no retreat over there, and the opponent can only fight you desperately.
However, Xu Chuan and the others did not have these problems, because there was no need to clear the building. Rem's voice on the intercom had already indicated that they had arrived at their destination and were relying on heavy-duty Humvees to cover Price and his companions' evacuation.
“Boss, there are many people passing towards your position from the west.” Sanborn looked at the drone footage. At least 20 people were moving towards the exploding building.
The entire area was filled with gunfire, and various rocket launchers were fired intensively at HCLI's convoy. Fortunately, they were all fully armored heavy-duty Humvees.
Swager didn't know where he was hiding, and many rocket launchers were shot dead as soon as they showed up.
“Let’s retreat too.” Xu Chuan shot and killed a soldier who rushed down from the building, and then shouted that he didn’t want to be blocked here by people outside.
Behind Albert, a few people evacuated the building. The big hole had been blown down. People definitely couldn't get out or get in. They just didn't know if the lead would go to other places, but they had done everything they could. You can't expect them to dig into the hole again to confirm.
HCLI must have contact information with the NATO military. Xu Chuan guessed that as long as the task force withdraws, military planes will cover the area with firepower. Why not run away and wait to be bombed?
At this time, the importance of aerial reconnaissance comes to light. Sanborn can report the enemy's location in real time, and they can't win even if it's hide-and-seek.
Makarov listened to his men's report with no expression on his face. The expected rage didn't seem to happen. His men breathed a sigh of relief. But the next second, Makarov took out an M1911 and pointed at him without any warning. One magazine was empty.
"Drag him out." Yuri came in after hearing the gunfire. Makarov put his hands on the table and held the gun in his right hand.
“Our people have caught up.” Yuri was holding an AK-103, and there were traces of battle all over his body.
"No need, let's retreat quickly, the coalition forces will bomb here soon." Before, they would still worry about accidentally injuring their own people, but now that it's dawn and the task force has withdrawn, the coalition forces will definitely let go.
His guess was correct. After receiving the news that the task force had withdrawn, the Sicilian military base had contacted the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle. France would launch a large-scale bombing of the entire area in retaliation.
Those CPA10s that crashed have all died, and their bodies have been on the TV news in the middle of the night. This is big news, and major media have reported it one after another, and NATO has to respond.
The first to attack was the MQ-9 Reaper drone, which had been replaced. Several laser-guided bombs accurately hit the Libiyan government troops who were still chasing HCLI.
Then came the nearby buildings. The MQ-9 directly threw away all the bombs and Hellfire missiles it carried, and thick smoke billowed out of the entire neighborhood.
The footage is directly transmitted back to the military base, processed and handed over to the media for broadcast.
French Rafale fighter jets entered the scene later. They not only dropped several 500-pound bombs on this area, but also airstrikes on government forces in other locations in Misrata.
Since then, news all over the world has been reporting on this incident. This is a more failed case than Operation Gothic Snake. It will definitely be included in special operations textbooks, but I don’t know if the details will be disclosed.
Looking at the thick smoke rising from the block behind him, Xu Chuan wiped the cold sweat from his head. Fortunately, he was running fast. He knew that these people had no loyalty. He should slow down and wait for the spiral to rise to the sky.
"Have you contacted NIKI? Is there any news from Sirte?" He didn't want to be raided for no apparent reason.
Smith turned his head in the co-pilot, "I have already asked, everything is normal in Sirte, the Khamis Brigade is preparing to support Misrata on a large scale, and everyone knows that this place cannot be lost."
"That's good. In this case, we can be more stable and slowly withdraw from Sirte." I didn't come here to fight anyone.
There were no obstacles in the withdrawal. The National Army's offensive was not in this direction, and the southern part was still under the control of the government forces. As long as there were no pursuers behind him, his documents and passes could completely guarantee Umbrella's safe withdrawal from Misu. Lata.
“Okay, go back to sleep, and don’t wake me up again if you have nothing to do.” Xu Chuan took off his equipment and threw it into the trunk. He leaned on the seat and closed his eyes. “The old guy’s favor can be considered repaid.” ’
…
“Sandman, how can you thank me this time?” Rem, who is usually very steady, teased the embarrassed Sandman for the first time.
He is also a retired soldier from the Delta. Sandman was still a new recruit when he served.
“I didn’t expect you to come to support us. Thanks, I’ll buy you a drink when I go back.” Sandman, who had narrowly escaped death, was curious about what conditions allowed a team of PMCs to come to rescue them regardless of danger.
"It's not just us, the guys from Umbrella are also here. If they hadn't cleared a road and finally blew up the underground tunnel dug by those people, it's hard to say whether you could have come out alive."
When Price heard this name, he immediately thought of another old guy, "Is Smith also Libiya? I didn't expect that I owed him another favor."
Although everyone knows that Smith is a wanted criminal by the U.S. Department of Defense, this is not important to these people.
“Yes, they have almost all arrived, and Umbrella’s boss has come in person.” Rem sat in the front row and looked at them through the rearview mirror.
The convoy was already heading towards the northern port. The officers bribed by HCLI played a big role and did not encounter any interception.
