Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2124

120 kilometers east of Addis Ababa, there is a mountain called Fental, and there is a barracks on the mountainside, with 250 soldiers stationed there.

Half of these 250 soldiers were Italians and half were Abyssinians. In order to reduce the cost of colonization, the Italian colonial government recruited servants in Abyssinia to cooperate with the Italian army to maintain law and order.

Like the Southern African Union troops, the officers of the Italian Servant Army are all Italians. The soldiers are complex, and most of them cannot speak or understand Italian.

And the vast majority of officers do not speak Amharic, the common Abyssinian language.

This has led to a serious lack of communication, and translation is needed between officers and soldiers to communicate, so how can combat effectiveness be guaranteed?

The supreme commander of the barracks is Tony, who is from Vicenza, a city in northern Italy. Three days ago, the camp where Tony was located was besieged by the Abyssinian rebels. Tony immediately asked Addis Ababa for help, but there was no response. get no response.

No response is possible either.

The Prince of Savoy should be very surprised. He doesn't know why so many rebels emerged overnight, and they are being attacked by rebels everywhere. Several colonial army camps have been breached by the rebels. All the soldiers were killed, their weapons and equipment were taken away, and the rebels even appeared on the outskirts of Addis Ababa, which made Prince Savoy horrified and inexplicable.

Therefore, assistance is impossible. Prince Savoy can only send a telegram to the colonial troops everywhere: You are fighting on your own, and I pray for you in Addis Ababa——

Tony can still handle the attack of the rebels.

The key is that as time goes by, the materials stockpiled in the camp are rapidly decreasing, and Tony has ordered restrictions on the materials, which can only last for another week at most.

If there is no reinforcement after a week, the defenders will run out of ammunition and food.

Bah!
There were sharp gunshots, which meant that another defender was killed or wounded by a rebel sniper.

Tony hoped it would be a kill, because then Tony wouldn't need to spare more people to take care of the wounded.

It's a pity that unless the sniper misses, he must be injured. This is the biggest reason why Tony hates the rebels.

"God, help me—I don't want to die—" the wounded soldier was wailing when he was carried to the infirmary. His shoulder was pierced by a bullet, his collarbone was broken, the bone stubble was directly exposed, and his muscle tissue was severely damaged. If it is torn, there may still be bullets in the body that need to be removed. Even if the operation is successful, this person will be useless.

The point is that the camp where Tony is located doesn't have the capability to perform this kind of surgery at all.

The only military doctor who can do simple bandages, this kind of injury needs to be sent to Addis Ababa for proper treatment.

It's just maybe.

But now that there were rebels outside the camp, Tony didn't dare to send anyone out, otherwise he would only add more wounded.

"Doctor, help me, I want to go home, I don't want to die here—" the wounded soldier was still wailing, the sound echoed in the camp, Tony was upset.

This feeling of being powerless and unable to do anything while seeing comrades in arms enduring inhuman pain is simply torture for soldiers.

The better the relationship, the harder it is.

"We have to take the initiative to break through, otherwise we will be consumed by the rebels sooner or later." Tony discussed with his officers and could not sit still.

"But we don't know how many rebels are outside. If we leave the barracks, we will be more vulnerable to attack." Alessandro from Rome objected. Once you leave the camp with defensive facilities, danger is everywhere.

"The number of rebels should not be too large, otherwise we will not be attacked with the same intensity as now." Luigi from Milan agreed to break through. There is still a glimmer of hope for breaking out. Standing still can only wait for death.

The Abyssinian security war has been fought for more than four years, and the Italian army is very familiar with the combat methods of the rebels.

The Abyssinian rebels are more difficult than the regular army of the Abyssinian Empire. They are well-trained and well-equipped. The Italian army once captured precision rifles with scopes in Abyssinia. This is not at all The equipment a guerrilla should have.

Except for precision rifles, the Abyssinian Rebels have almost all the army equipment except tanks and armored vehicles, some of which are even better than those of the Italian army. Leaving the city easily, the mountains and the countryside are all the territories of the rebels.

"At six o'clock in the evening, the second company will start from the west gate and head towards Awash, and the second company will start at seven o'clock and head directly towards Addis Ababa. If all goes well, we can arrive in Addis Ababa tomorrow morning " Tony made a decision, the first company was composed entirely of Italians, and the second company was a servant army composed of Abyssinians.

Just when Tony made his decision, Guoguo, a precision shooter from the Kingdom of Congo, was looking for an opportunity on the hillside 300 meters away from the camp.

Guoguo is an African, and her name is very complicated. If she writes all of them out, she might have too many words, so she can only choose a simple syllable instead. Most African names are like this.

Guoguo has served in the Umbrella Company for more than ten years. From the first recruit to the current veteran, the companions who joined the umbrella with Guoguo either died in battle or retired. Only Guoguo is still persisting.

Guoguo's shooting performance is very good. His record in Abyssinia has exceeded 40 people. In just three days, four Italian soldiers have been wounded by Guoguo.

"Compared with direct killing, wounding will cause more trouble for the Italians, and we don't need to attack. It won't take long for the Italians to die." Guoguo has rich experience, and his companion William is Abyssinian, only 20 years old this year.

Guoguo's current attire is exactly the same as that of the Abyssinians. He wears a shirt with a high collar and narrow sleeves, long breeches, and a Shama, which is the traditional costume of the Abyssinians.

Shama is actually a delicate piece of white cloth, usually with patterns printed on it. Men's Shama is long and narrow, while women's Shama can cover the whole body.

When Guoguo was talking, he was rolling a cigarette in his hand, and his movements were very skillful.

The logistical support of the Umbrella Company mercenaries is still good.

However, the cigarettes produced in southern Africa are too expensive, and Guoguo is reluctant to buy them, and it is cheaper to roll them himself.

"What if the Italians take the initiative to attack?" William was very worried. There were only two of them, and there were nearly 200 Italians in the camp.

"The Italians dare not take the initiative to attack at all. We are not fighting alone. There are seven groups like ours around the camp. If the Italians dare to leave the camp, they will suffer even greater losses." Guoguo looked forward to The Italians took the initiative to attack, so Guoguo would have more records.

Don't use guerrilla warfare in the customary sense to explain guerrilla warfare in Abyssinia.

The strength of the Abyssinian rebels is strong. They have sufficient logistics, well-trained, and excellent equipment. They control the vast mountains and countryside. The Italians dare not leave the city at all, just like prisoners locked in the city.

There are fewer and fewer camps like Fental where there are only a few Italian troops stationed, and there should be fewer after this battle. The rebels are concentrating their forces to attack some camps where only a few Italian troops are stationed. If you stick to it, when the rebels free up their hands, Fental still can't hold it.

"When will we drive the Italians away—" William hoped to end the war as soon as possible, so that William could have a chance to get a farm and start a new life.

In order to recruit more Abyssinians to join the rebel army, the Duke of Imru promised that after the war, every member of the rebel army would receive land for free, thus having the opportunity to become a new vested interest class.

This promise is very effective for the Abyssinians. The Abyssinians’ desire for land is no less than that of the Chinese. It is for this reason that more and more people join the rebels. Neighboring nations came to Abyssinia to join the rebels.

"Don't worry, be patient." Guoguo always reminded that patience is an essential quality for a sniper.

At six o'clock in the evening, the west gate of the barracks opened quietly, and a large group of servants rushed out of the camp in a mess, and ran wildly all over the mountains and plains as soon as they went out.

Bah!
Guo Guoguo broke his gun and knocked down a servant soldier to the ground.

The wounded were wailing loudly.

The other servant soldiers not only did not stop to rescue, but fled faster.

"Shit, the Italians want to run away!" Guoguo, with his rich experience, instantly understood that these servant soldiers were just bait.

The officers of the servant army were all Italians.

If restrained by Italian officers, the servant army still has a certain combat effectiveness.

Now that the soldiers of the servant army have no fighting spirit, the only explanation is that the Italians want to run away, so the servant army will lose its command.

But there was no time to think at the moment, Guoguo continuously pulled the trigger until all the bullets in the gun chamber were emptied.

Ten bullets hit at least six people.

Even though the target is moving, the distance is still so far, and the result of six out of ten rounds is already very good.

To Guoguo's surprise, more than a dozen servant soldiers fled to the vicinity of Guoguo and William's bunker in a panic.

William was sweating profusely, thinking that the servant soldiers were actively attacking.

Guoguo is very brave. The bullets in his gun chamber have all been emptied, but he still picked up the gun and stood up suddenly, shouting in Amharic: "Throw away the weapon, kneel down, put your head in your hands, and no extra movements are allowed. -"

In fact, there is no need to teach. When Guoguo first appeared, almost all the soldiers of the servant army threw away their rifles immediately, knelt down on the ground and held their heads in their hands.

The movements are very standard, and Guoguo can't fault it.

This is also normal. Many servant soldiers are eager to join the rebel army. They also want to have a piece of land of their own after driving out the Italians.
