I work as a mercenary in northern Myanmar

Chapter 118 The battle is approaching!

With an order, the drill begins.

The red team in the trench was very busy and never fired until it reached the effective fire range, while the blue team, which was advancing in a single column formation towards the target point in the trench, had no intention of slowing down its advance with fire.

The scene was quiet and strange until the distance between the two sides narrowed to about 300 meters, and the blue team's attack horn finally sounded.

The grenadier who came forward began to throw smoke grenades forward, and the two grenade riflemen fired rifle grenades at the front curve of the trench.

The training bombs exploded in front of the red mercenaries like a big firecracker. They were unmoved, but the director directly announced that three people were out.

So, the battle officially started.

Gunshots rang out intensively, and laser lines flew around in the smoke. Although most of them were blocked, there were still a small number of lasers that were the most effective indicators of killing, which penetrated the smoke and shot in the direction of the blue side.

——

But this did not cause any damage, because the blue team had no intention of using the smoke as cover.

After leaving one machine gunner behind as fire suppression, the remaining six-man group began to attack at an alarming speed. The distance of 300 meters was instantly shortened to 200 meters. Everyone seized the bunker and began to prepare for the final impact.

The transition between movement and stillness happens in an instant.

Changing speed is the essence of trench assault warfare!

At this time, the blue team was all hidden behind trees, rocks or ground folds. The red team's direct firepower lost its target, and the limited explosives were unable to cause effective damage.

Four light machine guns continued to fire to maintain the suppressive situation, but the problem was that the distribution of the 7-man group was too scattered!

Yes, there are many of them, but ammunition is limited after all. On average, one person occupies an area of more than 300 square meters. Even if a group of three people suppress a single target, they cannot completely restrict the blue team's actions!

So much so that the blue team could even easily switch cover while the firepower continued, and continue to advance forward!

This is the conversion of the strengths and weaknesses of the offense and defense.

Many people believe that in an assault battle, or simply called a "positional assault" battle, the defender has a huge advantage. As long as they keep firing in front of them, not even a rabbit can escape.

But in fact, this is a typical stereotype.

The actual situation is that when the offensive and defensive forces have reached a certain scale and the weapons and equipment are similar, the defender has a great advantage.

But if in a positional assault battle, the number of both sides is less than a hundred, or even less than 20, then the situation is completely different.

Because the defender's firepower density is simply unable to cover the vast battlefield with rugged terrain and numerous bunkers, and it is simply impossible to form effective suppression!

If I don't move forward, what can you do?

As soon as the gunshots stopped, I ran. As soon as the gunshots started, I threw myself on the ground. Fight? Give me a hammer!

This is why, in the first battle of Chen Chen's time travel, although the difference in numbers was not big, the Allied Army company he was in was bitten to death by the Burmese side, and even the number of people was reduced to only a few dozen. indivual.

Because the defender's range of activities is limited, while the attacker's range is close to unlimited.

This gap in the scope of activities will infinitely dilute the defender's suppressive power, or even dilute it to the point of being insignificant.

At this time, the white dog on the red side also discovered the seriousness of the problem.

Our side has consumed a lot of ammunition, and half of the ammunition base planned for the exercise has been destroyed, but they haven't even destroyed a single person on the blue side!

Moreover, the opponent has already rushed into the 150-meter range, and the final impact is about to begin!

This is a dilemma.

Suppression means slow death. If you don't suppress it, when the opponent rushes within 30 meters, all your superior firepower will be lost and you will be forced to enter the rhythm of close combat. At that time, it will be a pure gamble.

what to do?

Bai Gou's mind was spinning rapidly. He tried to shrink the defense line and increase the thickness of the firepower. But the moment he issued the order and the personnel within the defense line began to dispatch, the opponent's commander keenly caught the signs of the change in firepower.

The final impact was launched immediately, and the grenadiers once again used smoke grenades for cover and explosives for fire suppression.

The fire team occupied the advantageous position and exerted its full output, while the maneuver team advanced from the flank according to FM tactical specifications.

Jackal and Chen Chen, two precision shooters, played their role to the fullest. Within a distance of less than 100 meters, they knocked out three machine gun positions from the flanks.

The red side's firepower weakened instantly, and in the battlefield divided by smoke bombs, the blue side had already advanced to within 30 meters.

Next, it was a complete hand-to-hand encounter.

All marksmanship and equipment lose their meaning in trench warfare. The only thing that determines victory or defeat is one word:

quick!

Another change of speed. After entering the trench, the blue team first organized their team. The remaining five people were divided into two groups and attacked from both sides.

The interlaced firepower caused the white dog to make a misjudgment. He mistakenly placed a relatively large number of troops on the side with the light machine gun. Instead, the mobile group with two precision shooters was able to enter the direct action like a fish in water. rhythm.

This is no longer a battle, but a harvest.

Speed reaches the extreme, whether it is shooting or sports, Jackal and Chen Chen work together in perfect harmony.

At a certain moment, Chen Chen even found the rhythm of his previous IPSC training.

After entering the trench for 30 seconds, the battle ends.

Everyone on the red side was killed, and only one person on the blue side survived.

But the victory or defeat lies between this person.

Bai Gou stared at Chen Chen who was walking towards him, speechless.

Yes, he lost.

But, he didn't know how he lost! !

It was obvious that he had made perfect arrangements with absolutely no mistakes based on what he had learned in the Lion Corps. It was obvious that our side still had the advantage most of the time in this battle. It was obvious that our side's casualties were still there before the final impact. It was completely within the controllable range - even the three people who were blown out by the grenade, he felt that it was just the director who let things go.

But in the end, the battle turned around in less than a minute!

The battle lasted for nearly 30 minutes, and the greatest casualties only occurred within these 60 seconds!

This is not the suppression of equipment, marksmanship and technology.

This is tactical suppression.

In other words, according to Chen Chen's deployment, as long as the mercenaries have passed the technical level, they can achieve similar results!

Bai Gou suddenly became excited, and a flash of enlightenment flashed through his mind.

The core lies in the blue side's variable speed assault.

Every fast-paced attack by the opponent corresponds to one's own weak point.

Extremely precise and decisive.

Is this a real tactic? ?

Damn it, what did the Lion Corps learn before? !

Bai Gou rushed forward and held Chen Chen's hand.

Then, he spoke:

"Sir, I want to learn this!"

In the next two days, Chen Chen completed the special assault training for the newcomers as planned.

The effect is significant - of course not only the improvement in combat literacy, but more importantly, the improvement in obedience.

In one word, I was convinced.

This was originally one of Chen Chen's purposes. It was impossible to tell what happened on the battlefield, and they could always think of various reasons to excuse themselves.

It's not that you are better than us, it's the times that make heroes. It's because our guns are not good, it's because our equipment is poor, it's because we didn't have enough breakfast, it's because we had too much breakfast.

In a word, if you can't pull it out, it's because the floor is too hard.

But what now?

I will set perfect standardized conditions for you, and the two sides will have a head-to-head fight on equal terms. Do you accept it?

Coupled with Chen Chen's amazing record of ten rounds of 100-meter target rifles after regaining his feeling during shooting training, the newcomers were completely convinced.

After all, they are mercenaries, and they don't have much awareness of interests, politics, and strategies.

However, being ruthless in fighting is really ruthless in their eyes!

In two days, Chen Chen's prestige was officially established.

Although it is only the beginning and not yet solid, there is no doubt that this is a good start.

At least, when everyone saw him, they started to call him "Captain" from the bottom of their hearts, instead of calling "Sir" according to the alienation method intentionally or unintentionally.

After the basic integration training was over, Chen Chen selected 10 team members, led by the team leader named Sang Ye to carry out the mission in Mengyang, while Bai Gou took the remaining people to stay in Mengka for training and wait for the follow-up mission.

I have to say that the Lion Corps' original basic base was really big.

In just a few days of compilation, Chen Chen has already received three tasks.

There are armed escorts, attack points, and even fucking arrests.

"You guys used to really do everything."

Sitting in the office on the second floor of the Dongfeng Corps office building, Chen Chen said speechlessly to Bai Gou.

"That's not the case. We haven't accepted it before, but this one is special. I think we can accept it."

"Why?"

Chen Chen asked curiously.

"Captain, look at the mission briefing. The person responsible for catching the adulterer this time is Huamei Trading Company. Huamei Trading Company is the largest trading company in Mengyang. The person who was targeted was not the wife of the owner of Huamei Trading Company, but his daughter."

"It is said that he was a young boy who was attracted by the boss's daughter for some reason. He eloped for a while and was already pregnant when he came back."

"Now the boss wants to capture that kid and kill him, but unfortunately he can't find anyone."

"Don't you think this is interesting? I always feel like it's a big gossip."

Hearing Bai Gou's words, Chen Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"What's the point of this? I think it's quite outrageous. In a place like northern Myanmar, there is actually a plot about a man's love and his concubine's childhood sweethearts?"

"Who knew? People are weird sometimes."

Bai Gou spread his hands and continued:

"Based on his background, the guy we want to arrest is a commoner, but to be able to get in touch with the daughter of the owner of Huamei Commercial Bank and to deal with her, he must be a bit capable, and he's definitely not just a freeloader."

"He might have some secrets or clues about Huamei Trading Company, otherwise Huamei wouldn't be able to offer a high price of 50,000 US dollars to catch such a person."

"I mean, if we can get involved, there may be greater benefits to this matter, not just the money."

"You are so smart, why weren't you the leader before?"

Chen Chen asked.

"Hey, the hereditary system, coupled with the fact that Hu Kaicheng is really good at fighting and training troops, everyone is convinced."

"And I know my own level. I'm okay as a military advisor, but I'm still far behind as a regiment leader."

Bai Gou chuckled and replied.

"Okay. You send two people over to see what's going on. If they can do it, do it. If they can't, just pull them down."

50,000 US dollars is indeed a lot of money. If there are enough people, there will be no loss if it is divided.

"Okay, Captain! How about I make arrangements now?"

"go Go."

Bai Gou happily exited the office, but returned soon and filled the empty cup Chen Chen placed on the table with tea.

Chen Chen rolled his eyes at him.

What nonsense! ——

However, judging from the fact that he remained obedient after being suppressed by Hu Kaicheng for so long, and took the initiative to take risks and try to rescue when attacking, he is still a dog-legger who respects rules.

That's enough.

Doesn't he just want to make more money?

Give it to him.

People who don't want anything are the most untrustworthy people.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen shook his head slightly and looked at the table again to sort out the follow-up training and action plans of the Dongfeng Corps.

Now he is no longer a mercenary captain who only needs to charge forward. He is the boss of a professional corps, and the things he needs to consider are obviously more macro and specific.

How to improve the combat effectiveness of this corps, how to achieve long-term operations, how to transform in the future, and how to make profits in the great changes.

These are all problems.

Speaking of which, why is there still no movement from the 756th brigade?

Hasn't Jiya reached an agreement with them yet?

Chen Chen scratched his head, but the moment this thought crossed his mind, his cell phone rang.

After picking up the phone, before I could speak, a woman's voice came from the other side.

"Wreck, I'm Jiya."

! !

What comes to mind? !

Chen Chen was stunned for a moment and immediately asked:

"whats the matter?"

Jiya's voice on the other side was a little tired, but also vaguely excited.

"He Bangxiong and I have reached an agreement."

"There are a few things in Tachileik that I need you to help me get back."

"The payment will be paid by Brigade 756, and the time must be within two weeks."

"Help me, take this mission."

"If I survive, I will give you more in return."

"No problem, how much is it?"

Chen Chen answered simply, while Jiya opposite was stunned.

Did you agree so easily?

I thought I would have to try my best to convince him.

Too.

Although he doesn't care about my life or death at all, the chaos in Southern Shan State will be good for him.

Thinking of this, Jiya continued:

"$500,000, as long as it's something, any method will do."

"what?"

"Memory card, memory card with photos and videos. Also, a pack of samples, a few fingers, in a sealed bag."

"finger??"

Chen Chen frowned.

Memory cards and samples are both understandable, but what the hell are fingers?

"It's a finger that was cut off from a corpse. I dug it out of a grave and cut it off."

"The 505th Brigade had different opinions on the Mago issue. They organized a purge and a group of people disappeared."

"It was the people from Naw Khan who did it. I have been following them from Chiang Saen. After escorting the equipment to be handed over to the 505 Brigade, they conveniently helped the 505 Brigade do some dirty work."

"This is the most important piece of evidence because it proves the truth of everything I said."

"As long as it is proven that these disappeared people are dead, the 505 Traveler's sale of hemp nuts will be confirmed."

"The 756 Brigade will use this as a basis to create public opinion, cut off the possibility of the 505 Brigade cooperating with Myanmar, and force them to form an alliance with the 756 Brigade and resolutely go to war."

"That's what you want, isn't it?"

Jiya told everything she had in hand without any concealment, with smooth logic and clear intentions.

but.

After following a drug dealer all the way, you still dare to dig up the body? !

What kind of psychological quality is this?

It's no wonder that even after being tortured as a Star Fury in the dungeon for so long, his will was not destroyed at all.

He is a ruthless person.

"I understand, I can do it."

Chen Chen answered calmly, but in the end, he couldn't help but ask:

"Even so, do you think you can really survive?"

"The 505th Brigade is not worthy of going against the Thai side. They will hand you over immediately after getting the things."

Jiya was silent for a few seconds and replied:
