Chapter 1136 Don't Leave when You Come
In the morning light, streaks of orange-red tail flames were drawn on the horizon, and each tail flame represented a rocket that was struggling to fly. Every time the rocket flies about two kilometers, the fairing is opened, and umbrella flowers burst open before landing.
This beautiful umbrella flower makes people shudder, because there are anti-tank mines and anti-personnel mines hanging under it. The two kinds of landmines were mixed and nested together, which not only blocked the advance of armored vehicles, but also delayed and prevented the mine clearance of engineers.
Angola has a vast territory, but roads are limited, and there are only a few places where vehicles can pass. The Aurora Legion dispatched a group of rocket mine-laying vehicles, specially picking important locations for mine-laying, which immediately trapped the raiders who were trying to escape from the city, and also stopped the Bane's troops who were trying to rush into the city.
This spectacle, like a celestial girl scattering flowers, made Couch feel like crying, because when the rocket was laid, he had just directed a black battalion to the predetermined position, and was stopped by the floating landmine just as he was trying to survive.
"Where did the Aurora Legion get so many landmines?" Couch had little understanding of the situation. For infantry, anti-tank mines are not a threat, but those anti-infantry mines with more than a dozen trip wires sticking out like spiders are terrible.
Bane sent 30,000 men to raid Luanda in a semi-surrounding stance from the north and northeast. But when thousands of forwards rushed to their attack positions, they found an extremely wide and complex minefield blocking their way.
The area of this minefield is so large that it covers the entire northern part of Luanda, and it was deployed overnight, with an unexpectedly high efficiency. Couch's question also appeared in many people's minds. It wasn't until they discovered the existence of the Rocket Mine Vehicle that they realized that the opponent's tricks were not limited to airships.
More than two hundred old 74 and 79 rocket mine vehicles, tens of thousands of different types of mines, this move immediately stopped the menacing Bane outside.
The Aurora Legion can carry out rocket mines quickly, which is beyond everyone's expectations-this method is really simple and effective!
Couch's mission was to evacuate a small army that had sneaked into Luanda, which was an easy task. It is said that hundreds of troops harassed the Aurora Legion in the city last night, killing and destroying a lot of people and materials—but now a minefield cuts off life and death.
Across the minefield about 500 meters wide, Couch carefully ordered his black battalion not to move around, while asking his superiors and friendly troops what to do next? But they couldn't wait for the instructions of their superiors, but those teams who were about to retreat were in despair.
There were only a few hundred infiltrators sent by Benn, and they were divided into more than a dozen teams to evacuate after completing the task. As Kutcher's team was going through a minefield, a leading jeep tripped two antipersonnel mine tripwires and then hit an antitank mine.
Anti-personnel mines bounced up, flew into the air and exploded hundreds of steel balls, shattering the doors and windows of the Jeep. The anti-tank mines were even more powerful, directly blasting the jeep's car body into the air, and the burning wreckage of the vehicle was in a cloud of black smoke.
Couch saw several people fly out of the jeep, and the shock wave of the explosion was roughly tearing and peeling off flesh and blood. A corpse was blown up in the blink of an eye, leaving only a skeleton, and fell to the ground like a pile of rubbish.
Hiss..., Couch's men could see clearly through the minefield. Everyone felt their scalps go numb, and their hearts jumped. They looked at their feet again, and no one dared to move.
The retreating team was also stunned by the sudden explosion, and several cars immediately stopped their wheels, and several people jumped down to check the situation. When they saw the densely packed and nested minefields, they were terrified.
"Commander Corki, you have to find a way to get us out." On the radio, it was the retreating team calling for help. Those who can be arranged to infiltrate into Luanda are all mercenaries under Bane's subordinates, and they are the direct descendants with the strongest combat effectiveness.
If it weren't for Bane's desire to take down the Aurora Legion in one fell swoop, otherwise he wouldn't have dispatched this elite troop of five or six hundred people. And now this army can't come out.
Couch is also sweating profusely at the moment, and his superiors are also urging him to think of a solution quickly.
Even Bane himself contacted the frontline commanders one by one to rescue the infiltrated mercenaries. But without professional mine-sweeping personnel and equipment, it can only use local methods.
"The minefield is only 500 meters wide. If you use your cars to drive the road, you will be able to pick up the retreating troops." Benn gave a death order on the radio, and his words were strict and could not be violated.
Couch's 300-man black battalion was only equipped with 50 or 60 pickups and trucks. Under the urging of all parties, he could only bite the bullet and free ten trucks to crash into the minefield. The driver pressed the accelerator with a stone after starting the vehicle, and then jumped out of the vehicle to escape.
This method looks very good, but the first truck only advanced ten meters before it was blown up by two anti-personnel mines and paralyzed its engine. The second truck went five meters further and encountered an anti-tank mine. The third truck was also blown up ten meters further, and even the driver failed to escape.
One truck after another was blocked on the road, and it turned out that this way of troubleshooting was too stupid. Kuqi exhausted ten vehicles, but all ten vehicles got stuck on the edge of the minefield, and the vehicles behind couldn't get on, and they didn't even clear the 50 meters.
The gunfire behind the retreating team gradually became more intense, and the members of the team became more and more anxious. First they urged, then cursed, and finally begged. But Kutcher could only reply to them, "I tried my best, but I can't save you. Go to other places and detour."
"If we can make a detour, can we still count on you? We have a group of mutants chasing after us, and we can't get rid of them at all." There was a mournful cry on the radio, and then a burst of gunfire replaced it.
Couch quickly picked up his binoculars and looked across the minefield. The retreating team was using vehicles and buildings to resist, and there were two mutants farther away.
Yes, only two mutants. But they froze and fought against the retreating team, one of them attracted fire from the front, and the other threw cluster grenades from the side. A bundle of five or six grenades can blow down a house, and the mercenaries hiding in the house have no escape but die in battle.
Watching the people on the opposite side die one by one, Kuqi couldn't do anything. He felt cold all over his body, his mouth was dry, goose bumps appeared all over his body, and the hand holding the telescope was trembling slightly. The battle on the opposite side was over in less than five minutes, and the team he was going to support was completely finished.
Many people in the black camp became extremely silent just listening to the movement on the other side, and some people held binoculars in their hands to observe the situation on the other side. Seeing the elite mercenaries on the opposite side of the mine field die so quickly, hundreds of people here immediately fell silent.
Couch himself didn't dare to move, and quietly held his breath. Although there were only two mutants on the opposite side, he felt that even the 300-person black battalion under his command was no match.
The mutants on the opposite side were about to leave after simply clearing the battlefield, but one of them looked coldly across the minefield before leaving. Couch was still holding up his binoculars, clearly seeing the mutant's ferocious face as if right in front of him.
"Now we? Can't! I didn't do anything." Ku Qi thought to himself, he suddenly saw the ten trucks he had just rushed in to break through the minefield, and immediately regretted: "Why am I so stupid? If I had known this, I would not rush into the minefield.”
However, it was too late to regret it at this moment. Just when Couch was thinking about how to retreat quietly, the mutant on the opposite side summoned a hail of rocket bullets through the radio.
Carrying a 107mm rocket launcher, this is the equipment that Wen Tianyu's artillerymen first learned to use. A company of six guns and seventy-two shells smashed over in one breath, covering the area behind the wrecked vehicle like a carpet.
When he saw the tail flames of rockets rising from a distance, Kuqi rushed into his armored vehicle without saying a word. As for the subordinates of the black battalion outside, he can't control it!
A moment later..., the rocket hit the ground, wolves ran, explosions broke out, and weeping and wailing! 8
