Volume Three, Chapter 44. Shocking Change

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    First of all, I want to correct a small BUG. The armored personnel carrier mentioned in the previous chapter should be the former Soviet BTR-60PBPB type, not the previous 152 type. After all, the 152 type is somewhat outdated in terms of armor and firepower. After careful consideration, it was changed to the 60PB type.  .

    ¡ù¡ù¡ù.¡ù¡ù¡ù.¡ù¡ù¡ù

    The BTR-60PB wheeled armored transport vehicle is a vehicle built on a truck chassis. It can be said to be a very famous transport vehicle during the former Soviet Union, especially the 60PB type 8¡Á8 huge space. Although it is stated that it can only carry  Maximum 1 person per class.

    But even the fearless Red Army of the former Soviet Union, almost all of them did not seriously abide by this rule. In the Afghanistan War and the Chechen War, there were even examples of squeezing into two squads, and most of them were fifteen people.  about.

    With the internal space of the 8¡Á8 BTR-60PB armored personnel carrier, even if some ammunition transportation space is sacrificed, so many more people can be squeezed in. Now the total number of Edward's troops is 139, and these two BTR-60PB are enough.  Can carry 35 soldiers!

    "However, because of the inherent shortcomings of this BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carrier being built on a truck chassis, even the composite armor on the front is only about 40mm, which obviously cannot effectively defend against violent attacks.

    Even within a kilometer distance, the BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carrier must be careful of powerful fire attacks such as enemy heavy machine guns. After all, the truck chassis is not like a professional armored vehicle chassis that can withstand heavy armor weight.

    "Sir, there is nothing unusual about the hills ahead!"

    An armed pickup truck drove quickly towards this side, crossing the defense line composed of two military Humvees, and formed a parallel with Edward's military off-road vehicle. Kratos' head was exposed inside and reported: "There are no traces of enemies around.  "

    Rangers belong to the second echelon of combat. Sometimes they even become the third echelon of combat because six squads of Marines are assigned to the first and second echelons of combat respectively. Giving armed pickup trucks to the Rangers counts.  is a good choice.

    After all, those who carry out offensive operations are Marines holding G3-A4 assault rifles. The powerful firepower can carry out a powerful blow to the enemy. The M16-A2 assault rifle has a fixed three-round burst in terms of firepower.  It's a lot weaker.

    However, because it is a three-shot shooting state, it is also extremely accurate in shooting at the enemy. It is the best choice to break the deadlock when the first and second echelon attacks are frustrated and intercepted by enemy fire!

    "The armed pickup trucks continue to conduct reconnaissance, and the BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carriers go to occupy the hill."

    Nodding slightly, Edward looked at the three armed pickup trucks still wandering around the hill for reconnaissance. He reached out and held down the walkie-talkie, adjusted to the channel of the BTR-60PB wheeled armored transport vehicle, and directly ordered: "Establish shooting as soon as possible after occupation  position!"

    "Understood!" the driver's response came from the intercom. The two BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carriers following behind immediately increased their horsepower. The engines roared and the eight tires rotated rapidly, causing the entire body to rush forward in an instant.  Got out.

    In the single-man manual turret welded entirely to the body of the vehicle, a 14.5mm large-caliber heavy machine gun pointed its muzzle to the outside. It was held tightly in the hands of a Marine and covered the entire front of the hill faintly through the circular crosshair.

    Behind the closed compartment, there are also G3-A4 assault rifles sticking out of the three shooting holes. There are Marine Corps soldiers inside ready to rush out at any time. Along with the BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carrier, the entire hill is occupied.  .

    ¡°The T72 main battle tank slowed down and formed a circular defense position with infantry fighting vehicles and military Humvees.¡±

    Seeing that the armored transport vehicle had arrived at the bottom of the hill, more than thirty marines quickly opened the back door and jumped out one by one. Edward pressed the walkie-talkie and waved and ordered: "Get ready to set up a temporary camp!"

    Armored infantry companies also have the advantage of camping. They only need to surround the armored vehicles in a circle to form a solid steel fortress. With the help of various light and heavy firepower on the armed vehicles, any enemy who attempts to attack must evaluate their own strength.

    With T72 main battle tanks and "Weasel" infantry fighting vehicles as the main support points, military Humvees filled them. After a while, a temporary defensive position was formed under the hill. Various heavy machine guns were aimed at the outside, plus soldiers  The guns in his hands were as densely packed as hedgehogs.

    At the top of the hill, more than 30 marines have also occupied it. They quickly used engineering shovels to consolidate the soil above, established a temporary shooting position, and set up the RPD light machine gun on it.

    Two BTR-60PB wheeled armored personnel carriers were parked in the middle of the hill, with the commander controlling the 14.5mm large-caliber heavy machine gun.

    They also guard the bottom of the hill. They are fire support vehicles. If the enemy attacks, they will firmly hold the hill and occupy it.?Open strong fire support on the high ground.

    The entire convoy surrounded a space of more than a thousand square meters. All the soldiers were divided into three groups to be responsible for the security work for three periods of time, while the remaining two groups sat together in an orderly manner.

    "Light a bonfire, at least tonight we will have a delicious cooked meal."

    Looking at the temporary camping site that had been established, Edward said to Kratos not far away: "Take out the biscuits, canned beef, and canned beans. If possible, it is best to find a few wild beasts. These things always taste good."  It feels good."

    "Of course, sir." Kratos nodded, called two rangers and walked to the armored transport vehicle. There were enough compressed biscuits and various cans for the entire company, but most importantly, there were various tools inside.  .

    These foods were all recently redeemed. Since Edward redeemed three weeks' worth of food at once, the system also gave away an extra week's worth of food. However, it was not regular field food, it was all emergency food.

    The soldiers who had eaten it for many days could already be said to be tired of this kind of food. Due to the long-term storage required, this kind of military food, although high in calories and rich in nutritional value, was unpalatable and seemed to have been added with wax. Every bite was like  Suffer that way.

    Two armed pickup trucks rushed out in an instant. Several rangers were smiling, holding up their M16-A2 assault rifles and cheering. Although there are not many wild animals in the wilds of California, at least there are still wild pigeons and bushes in the hills.  There were quite a few hares.

    Even these small beasts are delicious whether roasted or stewed, especially when sprinkled with wonderful spices, and they taste even more fascinating.

    Since this place is a hilly area, the soldiers collected a lot of dead branches and added some fuel inside the incendiary bombs. Three huge fires were immediately ignited with a bang, turning into three half-meter-high fire pillars.  In the middle of the camp, there was a fierce burning.

    The soil on the hill is solid, and a simple shooting position has been built. Three Marines stand tall, holding the G3-A4 assault rifle in their hands to guard carefully, while the other soldiers are lying on their respective individual soldiers.  In the defensive pit, try to let yourself rest.

    They also need to change guard at night and camp in the wild, especially in enemy-occupied areas. Every time they camp, they must be extremely careful. If they are not alert, they may be touched by the enemy at any time.

    The sun has gradually sunk into the mountains in the distance, and a faint darkness has enveloped the sky. Three bonfires are burning under the hills. Many pheasants, hares and other food are placed on the shelves, and there is even a large one.  wild boar being roasted directly on the fire.

    Tonight's harvest was quite good. Encountering a wild boar in the wilderness was obviously something that made the soldiers cheer and cheer, especially because the grease flowed down the grill and fell on the fire, which caused a burst of neat swallowing sounds.  .

    A large number of vegetables were placed on the table not far away. Although there was a large amount, there were only a few types such as lettuce, tomatoes, onions, etc. However, this was because Edward had just experienced two battles, so he added them on the spur of the moment.  of.

    ¡°Buffet buffet! Cool!¡±

    Kratos reached out and took a large glass of Coke for himself. There were two Coke cans more than two meters high. The Coke made by directly mixing Coke powder with water did not taste very good, but the amount was very sufficient.  More than a hundred people drank three large glasses of wine.

    Levsky also took a glass for himself, took a sip, then pinched a piece of tomato and put it into his mouth. Looking at the meat being roasted, he couldn't help but shake his head: "How I wish I had a large glass of vodka at this time.  .¡±

    "Hey, champagne is the best for the celebration party!" Kratos raised his eyebrows, glanced at Levsky, and said nostalgically: "The soft taste is really fascinating!"

    But this is impossible. We are still in the enemy-occupied area. Alcoholic beverages are absolutely prohibited, even a little bit of Edward is absolutely not allowed. If the enemy really comes, how can we fight drunkenly?  !

    ¡°The meat is roasted!¡±

    A ranger cut off a piece of barbecue with a dagger, put it into his mouth and chewed it twice. He couldn't help but nodded and shouted happily to the soldiers around him: "Those who come first will have fat meat, and those who come later will have fat meat."  Just kick the ass in front of you!¡±

    "Hey, don't forget to send it to the comrades who are on guard on the hill!" The squad leader reached out and grabbed three roasted hares and two roasted pheasants, and asked a Marine under his command to pack some vegetables and join him.  Send it to the soldiers on duty on the hill.

    But these things are not enough to feed all the soldiers. Fortunately, there are still a lot of prey harvested. These are just appetizers, which make the more than thirty people on the hillJust taste it.

    "How is it? Is there anything abnormal?"

    Arriving at the top of the hill, looking at the soldiers drinking Coca-Cola, the squad leader couldn't help but smile. The large tray in his hand was placed on the bulge, and the hot barbecue even exuded a certain alluring aroma.

    "Well, there seems to be something, maybe it's dazzling." A Marine soldier who was standing on duty hesitated, pointed to the thick bushes on the back of the hill, and said doubtfully: "There seems to be a figure there.  But maybe it¡¯s a lush shrub.¡± (To be continued.
