916: Chapter 906: There’s a problem!

No problem.

916: Chapter 906: There’s a problem!

No problem.

After identifying the enemy’s position, the next natural step was to strike, but currently Gao Yang and his team were still within the Green Zone.

They needed to pass through a checkpoint and drive another four to five hundred meters before they could exit the gate of the Green Zone.

It was advantageous to have one-way visibility on the battlefield where the enemy was still waiting; Satan had already grasped the enemy’s location and even knew their firepower deployment clearly.

This feeling was truly exhilarating.

Absolutely no firing was permitted within the Green Zone.

Otherwise, Gao would have liked Tommy to fire some mortars inside the Green Zone before anything else, but since firing was not allowed, they could only take action after leaving the Green Zone.

The road was straight, and the enemy was ambushed on both sides, neither side too far away—six hundred meters and four hundred meters.

Both rocket launchers and machine guns could exert their full power, and the enemy could form crossing firepower from both sides, placing Satan in a pincer.

If they didn’t know the exact location of the enemy, this battle would be tough to fight.

Even if the enemy was weak, there could still be casualties, not to mention that the enemy wasn’t weak.

A rash battle could lead to being caught off guard and potentially annihilated.

But now that they knew every move of the enemy, if there were still casualties, then Satan might as well all retire and go home.

After pondering for a moment, Gao Yang loudly said, “Tolkien can keep the Green Zone’s guards silent and not fire at us.

So once we rush out of the Green Zone, we’ll fire directly at the entrance.

The enemy is ambushed on both ends.

The enemies on the right are closer, but the right side has buildings for cover, preventing the mortar’s effectiveness.

So we will attack the enemies on the left.”

After speaking, Gao Yang pointed to the right side and loudly said, “After exiting, Test Tube is responsible for driving the machine gun vehicle.

Big Dog will suppress with machine gun fire, and additionally, Rabbit will carry out precise killings.

At all costs, prevent the right-side enemy from firing, especially from launching rockets, with Bat acting as Big Dog’s backup shooter.

There are only two people exerting firepower on this side, so be very careful.”

Glolov saluted and confidently said, “No problem!”

Cui Bo also nodded and laughed, “Don’t worry; there won’t be any danger from behind.”

Gao Yang nodded, then pointed to the left side and loudly said, “The left side will be our main attack direction.

Fork will drive the mortar vehicle.

After stopping, get out immediately and coordinate with Worker Bee to fire, focusing primarily on the rocket launcher operator, aiming to eliminate the enemy’s rocket launchers with the first round of fire.

I will suppress and inflict damage on the enemy along with Worker Bee.

The rest of the personnel will form the assault team, riding in the armored SUV to approach the enemy.

Your mission is to leave no enemy behind and to ensure the safety of the passage, strive not to spare a single enemy.

Finally, Big Bird and I will monitor the main attack direction and every move of the enemy.

Alright, does anyone have any questions?”

It was a very risky tactic—besides Satan, hardly anyone dared to play this way, because this tactic depended on Glolov being able to suppress the enemies at the rear and Gao and Tommy being able to instantly inflict heavy casualties on the enemies in the main direction, followed by suppressing the enemy.

It was dangerous but also simple, so Satan’s people didn’t make a sound.

They just nodded their heads, indicating no problems.

However, at this moment, Tolkien said helplessly, “Please wait, I have a question.”

“Speak.”

Tolkien exhaled sharply, frowning, “Don’t you think this tactic is too hasty?

Guy, are you joking?

It’s very clear from the drone that the Global Forces personnel have night vision devices!

You’re only having four people suppress the enemies at the rear?

And that includes a driver and an assistant shooter?

Sorry, but I think this is a suicide mission!”

Gao Yang shrugged, “Actually, I will not be joining the assault.

I will stay at the entrance, very close to the machine guns.

So, if the situation in the main attack direction allows it, I will also participate in suppressing the rear.

With that, there will be three people.

Hmm, any other questions?”

Tolkien seemed annoyed and said, “Global Forces is more than twenty people!

Not just two!

They have four machine guns alone!

Don’t talk about three people suppressing; even thirty people conducting fire suppression would be a joke!

This isn’t bravery, it’s stupidity!”

Glolov pointed at Tolkien with his finger, then shook his index finger, shaking his head and laughing, “Buddy, I understand what you’re saying, but you should trust us.

Do we look like fools to you?”

Tolkien hesitated and said, “It doesn’t look like it, but foolish acts aren’t only committed by those who look foolish.

Buddy, I’ve seen plenty of foolish acts, but foolishness on the battlefield is unacceptable.”

Gao Yang looked at his watch and said, “I don’t have time to explain it to you now.

If you have doubts about my plan, it just so happens you can stay at the checkpoint at the entrance.

Honestly, my only worry is that the checkpoint might suddenly open fire on us, and then we’d really be done for.”

Tolkien hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “Alright, your concern makes sense.

Since I don’t have a night vision device either, I will keep an eye on the checkpoint for you to ensure you don’t suffer a close-range attack.”

Gao Yang nodded, “Alright, get in the vehicles, let’s move!”

Rafael drove the cannon pickup, Jansen and Tommy sat in the back of the pickup truck, Bruce drove the machine gun vehicle, Cui Bo, Glolov, and Lucica sat in the back, Gao Yang got into the car driven by Tolkien, and in the SUV were Lee Jinfang, Eileen, Frey, and Andy He.

After a command was given, the convoy set off.

When leaving, Tolkien stopped the car to exchange a few words with the checkpoint personnel.

Subsequently, the barrels of the machine gun positions set along the main street were turned inward, and the ammunition belts were removed to make sure there were no accidental discharges that could endanger Gao Yang and his team.

Then, soldiers carrying rifles turned collectively and retreated backward, squeezing into a small house next to the checkpoint.

After ensuring the checkpoint was secure, everyone who needed to disembark did so.

Gao Yang did not take off his Glow Night Vision Device attached to his helmet; instead, he raised his rifle and stood in front of the checkpoint’s iron sliding gate.

After personally pushing the roadway-blocking slide open, he waved his hand, prompting the machine gun pickup and the artillery pickup to exit one after another.

As the two pickup trucks parked, one facing left and the other right, aligning their cargo beds toward the direction of the attack, Gao Yang and Cui Bo each holding a rifle, dashed out, followed by the armored off-road vehicle which started moving slowly to the left.

Since they stopped at the entrance of the Green Zone, the Global Forces personnel did not dare to open fire directly, which gave Gao Yang and his team ample time to prepare.

During the drive, Rafael kept the vehicle doors wide open.

He turned off the engine to prevent vehicular vibrations from affecting Tommy’s accuracy in shelling, then immediately leaped onto the cargo area.

Jansen, holding a controller in one hand and a display screen in the other, stood beside Tommy.

Tommy set up the mortar, glanced at the target, then at Jansen’s display, and shouted loudly, “Fire!”

Rafael loaded a shell into the mortar, and simultaneously, Glolov’s machine gun and Cui Bo’s high-caliber sniper rifle opened fire.

Jansen suddenly yelled, “Direct hit!

Beautiful!”

As Rafael was about to load the second shell, Tommy, carrying the mortar tube, jumped down from the pickup and secured it on the road before aiming again.

Then he shouted, “Load!”

Rafael, somewhat startled, knelt on the pickup, reaching out to place another shell into the mortar tube Tommy was holding.

Jansen yelled again, “Impact point slightly to the left, within ten meters!”

Tommy bellowed, “Fire at full speed!”

Rafael also hopped down from the vehicle, with all the shells on board.

Using one hand to load and the other to fetch shells from the vehicle, he rapidly loaded shells into the mortar, his speed impressively swift.

The enemy had been dazed by the first shell, but as the mortar shells began bursting in rapid succession, those in hiding were promptly stirred into action.

Once they realized that the numerous incoming shells were “seeing-eye” shells, they had no choice but to run or face death.

With the enemy concealed, Gao Yang did not have an opportunity to fire, but the moment they started running, it was his time to shoot.

Even though the distance was far, the enemy’s hiding spot wasn’t a trench; to dodge the shells, they had to expose themselves, and although the exposure duration varied, Gao Yang seized the moments, scoring kills with each shot.

Gao Yang killed three men, and by then, the enemy had almost entirely dispersed.

At this point, Gao Yang and his team had not even experienced rocket fire, not even a stray bullet had flown their way.

Rocket launchers differ from rifles as they require aiming before firing, and the aiming time is much longer.

With Gao Yang supported by Glolov and Cui Bo from behind, they had no chance to fire any rockets.

After the gunfire had begun, the armored off-road immediately charged towards the enemy at maximum speed.

Jansen, staring at the display screen, suddenly blared over the radio, “Enemy is shifting positions!

They have abandoned the heavy machine gun position.

Rocket launcher, one rocket launcher left, but he’s turning to run!”

Gao Yang heard Jansen’s update, but in the thermal imaging scope, he could not differentiate whether the target was carrying a rocket launcher.

However, after seizing an opportunity to kill someone sprinting away from him, Jansen joyfully shouted, “Rocket launcher down, assault team too close to the enemy, mortars cease fire!”

Before Jansen’s words were out, Tommy had already turned the mortar tube and ceased firing.

He didn’t need Jansen’s reminder; coordinating artillery strikes with infantry, Tommy was well-versed.

Li Jinfang’s stern voice came over the radio, “Target spotted, engage at close range!”

Gao Yang swiveled his rifle to begin searching for the target approaching from behind.

The initial, most critical, and most intense stage of concentrated fire had ended.

Tommy finally had a moment to grumble, “F**k, the recoil from firing affects the vehicle’s shock absorption significantly.

Continuous firing impacts the accuracy of the shelling.

I had to get off the vehicle to fire, or else, the firing rate would be too slow.

I’d have to wait for the vehicle’s vibrations to subside before I could fire, hope it didn’t cause any delay.”

Amid the busy assault team firing at the enemies behind them, someone found time to reply, Eileen chuckled, “No worries, you’ve practically obliterated them.” (To be continued.
