Chapter 1591: Descending like divine soldiers

When the first batch of five hundred people landed one after another near the south wing mountain top ridge line, another batch of five hundred people also jumped from the plane and began to drift toward the north wing mountain top ridge line.

Due to the influence of wind power, wind direction, and personal control ability, it was difficult for paratroopers to jump to the same area at the same time, so they could only land near the target one after another, and then move toward the target area from all directions.

Generally speaking, paratroopers had to prevent their parachutes from tangling in the air, so they would maintain a safe distance from other comrades, so it was normal for them to deviate by hundreds or thousands of meters when landing.

Especially for night parachute jumps, it wasn't strange even if they deviated by thousands of meters.

Therefore, the first batch of five hundred people, after landing, did the first thing: quickly gather toward the target area.

However, what they didn't expect was that during the process of parachuting down and moving to gather, they didn't discover any defensive soldiers, nor did they discover any of the enemy's hidden fortifications.

Checking the entire mountain peak through night vision goggles, except for their own people with special markings, they didn't discover any trace of the enemy.

Some soldiers carrying thermal imagers also immediately started to check the surroundings, but still didn't discover anything.

The reason they couldn't see any enemies was that Hamid's soldiers were currently hiding in the bunker fortifications on both sides of the mountain slope, and the thermal imaging equipment used to observe the mountain top was also transmitted to the bunker through signal lines, so the entire mountain top ridge line was currently in an undefended state.

When the commander reported this situation in real-time to Chen Zhonglei, who was circling in a large circle at high altitude, Chen Zhonglei wasn't too surprised.

Because he knew that the enemy had bunkers on both the front and reverse slopes, so it wasn't strange to ignore the mountain top defense. If it were him, with the front and reverse slopes as solid as a rock, he wouldn't waste energy defending the mountain top either. After all, under normal circumstances, wanting to break into the mountain top required passing through the front slope.

Thus, he immediately reminded his frontline commander that they must take advantage of the enemy's negligence in defending the mountain top, complete the gathering as quickly as possible, and then let the first echelon launch the surprise attack, while the second echelon took the opportunity to flank from the north side, directly blocking the enemy in the tunnels and annihilating them.

Chen Zhonglei had followed Wan Pojun through many battles until now. He had fought many similar offensive battles.

He deeply understood one truth: when attacking hidden fortifications, if his side was far from the fortifications, the other party had the advantage; but if his side was very close to the fortifications, his side had the advantage.

Back during the Southwest War, once the enemy was blocked in the cat-ear holes, they basically had only one dead end. His side's soldiers would throw a few grenades in, and they could make their cat-ear holes their graves.

Therefore, Chen Zhonglei was already confident. Tonight, they would definitely annihilate Hamid's troops!

The first echelon of five hundred paratroopers gathered quickly. Thinking their infiltration this time was very successful, they didn't know that they were already completely exposed to Hamid's surveillance at this moment.

And what made Hamid excited was that there were a full six blast points that could cover the area where they were gathering.

And those blast points were buried with high-explosive explosives that could blow up rocks!

Twenty minutes later, the first echelon of soldiers finished gathering, and at the same time, the second echelon of soldiers had also finished parachuting and started gathering.

After the second echelon of soldiers had also finished gathering, the first echelon's commander ordered the attack!

They planned to attack the front slope tunnels directly, disintegrating the enemy's defense while drawing out the enemies on the reverse slope, and also drawing over the enemies hidden in other directions.

At that time, the second echelon would sneak up from behind, directly wrapping the other party in a dumpling.

At the same time, as long as the front slope's defensive power was disintegrated, the government army's thousands of soldiers would immediately rush up. By then, Hamid's armed forces would have nowhere to escape.

In the Cataclysmic Front's communication system, the first echelon commander said: "My unit is ready for battle. Please confirm the gathering situation of the second echelon."

The voice of the second echelon commander came from the communication system: "My unit has basically completed gathering and is conducting pre-battle equipment confirmation."

The first echelon commander immediately said: "My unit requests to launch an attack. Please approve, Commander Chen!"

Chen Zhonglei said spiritedly: "Approved! Launch the attack immediately! Within ten minutes, solve all the soldiers on the front slope! Avenge our dead brothers!"

"Yes!" The first echelon commander immediately said proudly: "Please rest assured, Commander Chen! We will not live up to the name of the Cataclysmic Front! We will definitely avenge the dead brothers!"

"Good!" Chen Zhonglei laughed and blurted out: "Attack immediately!"

The first echelon commander immediately ordered the soldiers beside him: "All units, begin the attack!"

As soon as the words fell, Hamid in the tunnel also shouted gritting his teeth: "B area 03, 05, 06, 08, 09, 11 blast points, detonate!"

The two engineering corps members responsible for the B area immediately used the fastest speed to detonate the specified blast points on the detonator.

Just as the Cataclysmic Front's first echelon of five hundred soldiers were preparing to rush toward the front slope defensive fortifications, huge explosions suddenly sounded around them!

Among them, three blast points were right under the feet of these five hundred people, and the other three were distributed on the edge of the five hundred people. At the moment of detonation, at least one hundred-plus people were lifted high by the explosion wave.

The intense explosion wave caused these five hundred people to be injured to varying degrees, and quite a few were directly blown to death or shocked to death.

And what was even more tragic was that the sky-filling lethal shrapnel lifted by the explosion wave was like the rain of pear blossoms in Wuxia novels, covering these five hundred people in all directions!

The power of the explosion was already extremely great, and the metal shrapnel, pushed by the explosion wave, each possessed powerful potential energy.

Although these five hundred soldiers were all wearing bulletproof vests and bulletproof helmets, their limbs, faces, and necks were all exposed to this kind of dense shrapnel attack!

In just an instant, all five hundred Cataclysmic Front soldiers, without exception, were hit by a large amount of metal shrapnel!

Some who were unlucky were directly hit in the trachea or arteries by shrapnel, and before they could be rescued, they had already stopped breathing.

And those who were luckier, although they didn't suffer fatal injuries, were hit in the face by shrapnel, and their eyes were instantly blinded.

And more were suffering from large-area injuries to their limbs.

Especially their hands and arms were almost blown into a bloody mess. Even if they were well-trained before, they couldn't even hold their guns now.

Chen Zhonglei heard the explosion sound in the wireless communication, as well as the painful howling of his soldiers, and his scalp went numb instantly. He blurted out: "What's going on?! What happened?!"

The first echelon commander was already blinded at this moment, both eyes pierced by at least seven or eight metal shrapnel pieces. At this time, covering his eyes, he cried helplessly: "Commander Chen! We... we were ambushed!!" ===== CHAPTER 1592 =====
