Chapter 34 Blocking War
The Norwegian army entered from Pakistan and went to the US military base in the southern desert of Afghanistan, and then transited to Kandahar, Afghanistan. After Norway entered Kandahar, the US military drew most of its troops from the south to the Amin Khan area to carry out a military operation to eliminate the Taliban armed forces.
Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
This is a typical mountainous terrain. There are only stones on the mountain. It is bare and there is not even a tree. This is the only way for the Norwegian army to enter the southern desert of Afghanistan.
A dozen kilometers to the north, there is a small town with four squares, which serves as a buffer point between Afghanistan and Pakistan. There are only indigenous people in the town, no army, and occasionally mercenaries stop here to rest or buy various information.
Without military control, this town is destined to be filled with all kinds of rare filth and strangeness. Every household here has guns, there are a lot of drug dealers gathered here, there are prisoners everywhere, and brothels and casinos can be seen everywhere.
People die here every day, but many people come here every day because this place is a place where opportunities and dangers coexist, and the dark side of the rule of law is a way of life here.
The town's former name has been forgotten and it is now commonly referred to as the Black Town.
On the top of a not-so-high hill, Zhao Ziyang, Omo, Swart, Blade, and Scytheman lay there quietly, waiting for the Norwegian army to appear.
"Special Forces, are you sure the first one to appear is the defender?" Omo, with a straw in his mouth, sucked the clean water from the vest while wiping the M134 in his hand again and again.
"Confirmed." Zhao Ziyang nodded, pushed up his sunglasses, squinted his eyes and looked at the scorching sun in the sky and said, "Our mission is very simple, to complete the containment and create conditions for Angel and Pandora."
"A simple task?" The sickleman muttered to himself with a smile on his face.
Everyone knew whether it was a simple task or not. It was not an easy task for five people to contain the defenders and attract their firepower. However, nothing was absolute. They were fighting a desperate battle and could only succeed and not fail.
"Yes, a simple task." Zhao Ziyang showed a confident smile on his face, patted the sickle man's shoulder gently and said to him: "I will treat you to Chinese food after the task is completed."
Zhao Ziyang is now very fond of the Scytheman, a guy from Austria. He has a stronger sense of obedience than other mercenaries, and he is a good and honest person, just like Omo.
"Okay!" The sickleman grinned.
Some guys in the group like Chinese food and are very curious about it. They think Chinese food is very mysterious, and it is amazing that just adding some leaves or bark into the food will make it smell so good that it makes people drool.
"Special Forces, please give me a few bottles of soy sauce." Omo's voice came over, with a tone of simplicity and expectation.
"Soy sauce?" Zhao Ziyang looked at Omo in surprise.
"Yes!" Omo nodded affirmatively, and said with a look of aftertaste : "Soy sauce spread on bread is the best delicacy in the world. We all love soy sauce."
Zhao Ziyang laughed at once. He really couldn't imagine that soy sauce could be eaten like this.
"No problem. I'll give you a jar of tofu stew. It tastes better than soy sauce." Zhao Ziyang promised.
"Really? Hehe..." Omo smiled with satisfaction, muttering the three words "tofu stew" over and over again.
Blade was constantly observing the situation ahead of him under the mesh net and entered combat mode in advance. As for Swart, he was joking with Zhao Ziyang and the others, lying there silently, weighing the bullets back and forth to check if there were any duds.
"Swarte, the mission is completed..."
"The mission hasn't started yet." Swart replied to Zhao Ziyang coldly, with disdain on his face.
Zhao Ziyang, who was rushed back by Swart, shut his mouth and stopped making trouble for himself.
He just wanted to liven up the atmosphere before the battle, he had no other intentions, and it was impossible for him to show his goodwill to Swart. The two of them seemed to be incompatible, and it was like this from the beginning. But it didn't matter, they were all the most authentic professional soldiers, and they would put aside personal grudges when doing business.
"Zizi... Special forces, special forces, I am Night Rose, I am Night Rose, everything is ready, it's up to you." Angel's voice came from the radio.
"Understood. Once the mission is completed, retreat immediately. I repeat, once the mission is completed, retreat immediately!"
"Understood! Zizi..."
The tasks were clearly divided. Zhao Ziyang and his team were to contain the lurkers, while Angel and Pandora hunted down Norwegian soldiers and filmed them. Without Seth to receive the post-production, Angel and Pandora had to retreat after completing the mission and complete the post-production of the video as quickly as possible to distribute it to Norway.
The time is very tight. According to estimates, the effect will only appear within three to five days after the video is released, and the time when Norway can no longer bear it and chooses to withdraw its troops should be seven to nine days.
In other words, Zhao Ziyang and his five men were a bit like the five warriors of Langya Mountain, who had to complete the tactical traction without any backup. The signal for their retreat was that Angel and the other two would successfully retreat, otherwise there would be a lot of variables.
"Attention, attention, the Norwegian advance troops are approaching, the Norwegian advance troops are approaching." Blade's voice rang clearly in everyone's ears.
"Got it! Got it!" Zhao Ziyang responded, picked up the telescope and looked into the distance.
A pair of soldiers in Norwegian uniforms appeared at the mountain pass one and a half kilometers south of the strategic point. There were a total of 27 soldiers in this team, with three people forming a combat group, forming a regular triangle formation. The nine front three combat groups formed a dispersed but compact sawtooth front triangle, holding their guns and marching in tactical steps into the open plain between the two mountains, and approached here.
"Watch their tactical movements." Zhao Ziyang reminded his teammates around him.
These soldiers are extremely skilled in tactical movements. When attacked, they can immediately purchase powerful firepower, or switch positions to defend. The tactical steps of these soldiers are casual, they are not as rigid as regular soldiers, and the frequency of each person's steps is in the most appropriate proportion to their height.
The ground beneath your feet may be messy, but the whole thing feels very coordinated.
The most striking thing is the firearms in their hands, which range from American equipment to Russian equipment, British equipment, etc., and the amount of equipment is much more than that of regular soldiers. Basically, everyone carries more than three pistols and sabers on various parts of the body .
"Defenders." Omo let out a sigh and revealed the true identities of these soldiers.
The hired defenders wore Norwegian military uniforms, firstly to avoid unnecessary trouble, and secondly because the Norwegian military also required them to do so.
It is an unwritten rule that you have to wear the military uniform of the country you work for. After all, no country is willing to make it clear that it uses mercenaries, as that would lead to criticism from the world.
The ubiquitous mercenaries are despised by all people of justice, but they are also an indispensable weapon for military operations of various countries.
Omo held up a bulletproof steel plate that was ten centimeters thick, placed the Gatling M134 in the groove in the middle of the steel plate, and then hid himself behind the steel plate, staring at the front through the shooting hole.
The ten-centimeter steel plate can block all rifle bullets, including armor-piercing bullets from any sniper rifle. The clumsy yet strong protective steel plate will allow Omo to exert its maximum strength, making it an indestructible firepower fortress.
Perhaps only a pervert like Omo would use this crude but extremely effective thing. No one can break through the vitality points built up by him alone.
After completing the observation, Blade returned to his position, pulled out a Russian-made SVD sniper rifle from his back, and lay on the top of the hill aiming at the Defender mercenaries a thousand meters away.
At the same time, Swart and the Scytheman also pulled out a sniper rifle and placed it on the top of the hill, an M107 long-range sniper rifle, and an AMP sniper rifle.
There were only five of them to carry out this tactical traction, or the difficult positional battle.
Zhao Ziyang still held up the Type 95 assault rifle, put his eyes lightly on the sight, and aimed at a defender mercenary's head at a height of nearly fifteen centimeters a kilometer away.
"A little closer, yes, a little closer, 800 meters away, pay attention to the adjustment."
Several people immediately adjusted the scales of the sniper rifles to a distance of 800 meters.
In the scope, the defender mercenaries continued to advance cautiously with tactical steps. At this moment, they looked very ridiculous in Zhao Ziyang's eyes. They were just a group of cannon fodder, a group of pitiful cannon fodder who were about to die.
One thousand two hundred meters, one thousand meters, nine hundred meters...
"Get ready!" Zhao Ziyang's voice rang in the ears of Blade and the others.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Blade, Swart, and Scytheman pulled the trigger at the same time and fired sniper bullets at the defender mercenaries who were within 800 meters. At the moment of the gunshot, the bodies of the three defenders were clearly seen to be thrown back and fell heavily to the ground.
Zhao Ziyang also pulled the trigger after the three men shot and killed them. A bullet that he had smoothed on a stone when he was bored flew out of the gun and accurately hit a defender's head.
In the sight, the defender's head exploded like a watermelon, his body tilted to the side, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Perhaps no one except Zhao Ziyang can use an assault rifle to achieve the effect of a sniper rifle.
The four defenders who fell instantly reacted quickly and immediately chose to lie down on the ground and look for cover. However, the terrain they were in was an open area between two mountains, which was a plain, and the plain meant that there were not many covers for them to use.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." The sniper rifles continuously roared with the god of death. One after another, the defenders who failed to find effective cover were pierced through the body by sniper bullets, resulting in countless deaths and injuries at one time.
However, even when faced with sniper fire, they remained calm, using a variety of tactics to evade and confuse the sniper's sight, creating time for themselves to find cover.
After six bodies fell again, the remaining defender mercenaries hid their bodies behind three rocks, using the rocks to avoid being sniped by Zhao Ziyang and others again.
The ten corpses lying in a disorderly manner cast a shadow of death over this small open area. The originally yellow land showed an enchanting reflection after absorbing a large amount of blood.
The gunshots stopped, the wailing ceased, and the defenders quietly hid behind the rocks and waited. Zhao Ziyang and his men also did not make any sound, and also quietly waited.
The wind stopped blowing, leaving the area in a dead silence.
