Chapter 1592: We were ambushed!!

~8 min read 1,485 words

"Ambushed?"

Chen Zhonglei heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out: "What exactly is going on? What kind of ambush did you fall into!"

The commander answered with a crying voice: "It's an explosion! An extremely powerful explosion! They must have pre-buried a large amount of explosives. The explosion lifted a large amount of lethal shrapnel. My eyes are already blind, and I have injuries on my legs and hands, but now I can't distinguish how serious the injuries are!"

"How could this happen!" Chen Zhonglei blurted out: "Quickly let the people around you help you treat it!"

At this time, another person's voice came from the communicator, crying: "Commander Chen, Captain Onizuka's limbs have been hit by at least dozens of shrapnel pieces. We have no way at all!"

Chen Zhonglei roared: "You at least have to find a way to let your commander recover his vision, otherwise how can he lead you to break out of the encirclement?"

That person's emotions collapsed, and he cried loudly: "Captain Onizuka's left eyeball was pierced by shrapnel and has been bleeding heavily. His right eye had the night vision goggles crushed by flying stones from the explosion, and the night vision goggles were directly smashed into the eye socket. The eyeball has been completely squeezed out... I... I am powerless..."

Chen Zhonglei heard the other party's description, his heart aching incomparably.

The two echelons parachuting tonight were all the strongest soldiers and commanders under his command.

Hearing the news that his subordinates were now blinded and covered in injuries, Chen Zhonglei wished he could jump down personally to save them.

And in the background of the communicator, there were all the sounds of soldiers wailing and crying, which made Chen Zhonglei even more sorrowful.

At this time, the first echelon commander on the other end of the phone cried: "The enemy laid a trap long ago, just waiting for us to step in. The explosion just now caused us heavy casualties, Commander!"

Chen Zhonglei's veins bulged, and he roared gritting his teeth: "You guys hold on a little longer, I will let the second echelon go to support you right away!"

The commander blurted out: "Don't! Don't let them come!!"

The commander said urgently: "Commander, you should let the second echelon withdraw quickly! The other party clearly prepared long ago, I'm afraid they have already laid a net. Our team has suffered very serious casualties, and now we are being flanked by their front and reverse slopes, it's impossible to break out anymore. The second echelon can't save us either, so please don't let the second echelon come to die!"

Chen Zhonglei never dreamed that the first echelon commander would be so pessimistic.

He murmured to himself in his heart: "Could it be, could it be that they really have no chance to survive? Could it be... this Hamid really has such strong ability, able to foresee all his tactical planning in advance?"

Chen Zhonglei, who was extremely puzzled, didn't know that just ten-plus seconds after the south wing first echelon encountered the ambush, on the north wing mountain top, eight blast points also detonated at the same time!

Those five hundred people on the north wing were truly too unlucky.

The entire north wing mountain peak was relatively steep, but there was only one relatively flat area. No matter who was in command, they would definitely choose this area to gather.

This was just like how there was only one tree under the scorching sun, and people would subconsciously go under the tree to cool off and avoid the heat.

It was precisely because of this that Hamid's subordinates densely arranged eight blast points here.

When the second echelon people were gathering, hearing the explosion sound from the south, they thought it was the south wing brother unit that had started the offensive battle.

They were just preparing to finish gathering and immediately rush over to flank, but they didn't expect that Hamid's subordinates would detonate all eight blast points around them at this time!

The deafening explosion sound made the entire valley tremble.

Such dense and sky-filling flying shrapnel had a very wide lethal coverage, and the dense cross-coverage made it difficult even for a fly to hide, let alone these flesh and blood bodies!

Therefore, after these eight blast points detonated, more than half of the second echelon were directly blown to death!

The remaining ones were almost all seriously injured, instantly losing their combat capability.

Immediately after, the second echelon commander shouted in horror: "Commander, we... we were also ambushed... The explosion was very tragic, we... we were almost completely lost! The brothers who are still alive are all seriously injured, and there is blood and broken limbs everywhere..."

Hearing this, Chen Zhonglei was instantly stunned.

He never dreamed that the north wing was also in the enemy's expectation.

In this way, all one thousand of his elites were secretly calculated by the other party!

He was clearly going to sneak attack the other party, and all the people sent out were elites most suitable for carrying out decapitation missions. Why were they blown to death and injured by more than half as soon as they landed? How could the enemy be so resourceful and arrange all this in advance?

Just when Chen Zhonglei fell into extreme self-doubt, Hamid's soldiers launched a full-scale attack!

Hamid had long ago, according to Ye Chen's instructions, divided the entire base into five areas.

And each area, according to the location of the blast points, was divided into dozens of detailed coordinate orientations.

Therefore, the soldiers in each bunker knew the enemy's current location clearly after the blast point exploded according to the marked map.

Immediately after, Hamid dispatched eight hundred soldiers from the front and reverse slopes to surround the first echelon.

At the same time, the artillery in the south wing reverse slope tunnel immediately pushed out twenty small mortars, aiming at the location of the north wing blast points from the south wing tunnel entrance, preparing to launch another round of shelling on the north wing's second echelon.

The structure of the mortar was simple, to put it bluntly, it was nothing more than a slender artillery barrel fixed by a tripod. This kind of artillery had a short range and small power. Compared with towed artillery, it was simply a small witch meeting a big witch.

However, this kind of weapon also had its advantages.

The biggest advantage was strong mobility and strong portability. You could shoot when you came and run after shooting.

The firing was also very simple. You just had to adjust the angle and put the shell into the muzzle, and it would fire instantly.

During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese Army Lieutenant General Abe Norihide, known as the "Flower of Famous Generals," was taken away by a young artilleryman of the Eighth Route Army with a mortar.

It was precisely because of these advantages that this kind of mortar hadn't been eliminated by the army for decades.

These artillerymen of Hamid knew the location of every blast point on the north wing, so the adjustment before shelling was very rapid.

One or two minutes later, these twenty mortars began a round after round of uninterrupted bombardment!

And the landing points of the shells were very accurate, almost blooming in the center of the second echelon's gathering point.

The five hundred Cataclysmic Front soldiers of the second echelon were already very tragically blown, and now they hadn't had time to make any adjustments at all. Dense mortar shells fell beside them like hail.

This time, the mountain top of the north wing simply became a human purgatory.

After a few rounds of shelling, the death rate of the Cataclysmic Front soldiers on the entire north wing had already exceeded 90%.

The remaining people were all dying at this time.

"Tommy! Tommy! Answer me if you hear me!" Chen Zhonglei was about to collapse. He shouted the name of the second echelon commander in the communication system.

However, on the other end of the communicator, besides the dense artillery sound, who could respond to him?

The second echelon commander, the Englishman Tommy Johnson, had already died under the mortar shells during the first round of shelling.

Chen Zhonglei listened to the sound of mortar shells constantly exploding in the communicator, and tears had already streamed down his face.

He knew that the second echelon was likely beyond saving, so he immediately said to the first echelon commander: "Onizuka! You must hold on! Don't give up! I will let the government army's five thousand soldiers launch a charge right away. No matter what, I will save you!"

The first echelon commander, the Japanese Onizuka Kenta, smiled miserably and said: "Commander, don't bother... The enemy has already rushed up... Goodbye... Commander..." ===== CHAPTER 1593 =====
