Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Qin Zheng recognized that this was the C-119 transport plane, also known as the "flying carriage."

"Why did the transport plane fly here? Is it to drop supplies for the enemy?"

Qin Zheng was a little confused, but soon he understood.

The rear of the transport plane opened and paratroopers descended from the sky.

"Damn, this is most likely aimed at us!" Qin Zheng sighed secretly and looked up to observe carefully.

"120 men. That's the strength of an airborne company. That's really impressive of us."

Qin Zheng knew clearly that the enemy's paratroopers were all veterans of hundreds of battles. They were absolutely the best soldiers with rich combat experience, proficient in all kinds of firearms, good at all kinds of combat, especially good at raids and mountain warfare.

With this group of opponents following behind us, it will be very difficult to achieve victory in the future. If we are not careful, there will be a danger of annihilation.

Thinking of this, he made a decision.

"Everyone, head east immediately and set up an ambush at the narrow and undulating part of the mountain ridge 1 kilometer ahead. Deputy Platoon Leader Wang will lead the team. Take up advantageous terrain and wait for the enemy to enter the mountain."

Without any hesitation, the soldiers of the second row moved forward quickly.

Qin Zheng said as he walked: "The target of these paratroopers should be us. Next, we will face a bloody battle. They are all veterans with rich combat experience. We must not underestimate the enemy. Of course, you don't have to worry or be afraid. We are more familiar with the terrain than the enemy. Now we are in a good position and have occupied an advantageous position. We are already in an invincible position. When we arrive at the blocking location, we will form a combat team of two people and snipe in batches. Don't separate too far. Squad 1 is in the middle, Squad 2 is on the right, and Squad 3 is on the left to form cross fire. In addition, you have to change positions after firing a shot. The enemies are all sharpshooters. You must pay attention to camouflage, concealment and self-protection. Wu Liyang, Zhan Qizhen, and Hu Luoyang should pay attention to the opponent's snipers."

Wu Liyang, Zhan Qizhen and Hu Luoyang are the snipers in the three classes. They have tough personalities, strong self-control and are also sharpshooters.

Qin Zheng specifically asked the three to pay attention to the opponent's sniper, which meant that they could not participate in the battle until they were sure that the opponent did not have a sniper.

Qin Zheng's voice can be guaranteed to be heard by everyone.

"This afternoon and evening will definitely be the biggest test for us. I will go ahead and lie in ambush. When the enemy passes by, I will attack from behind."

After saying that, he left the troops and moved quickly to the east. He was so fast that he disappeared from the soldiers' eyes like a cheetah.

This scene was no longer surprising to the soldiers, as it was a normal operation for their platoon leader.

On the way forward, the soldiers took out canned food from their backpacks and started eating. Now, they had to fill their stomachs. It was unknown how long it would take before they could eat again after they had truly repelled the enemy's attack.

During this period, the soldiers felt that their physical fitness had improved. They thought it was because they ate better. After all, they had seized a lot of canned food, including a lot of meat.

But what they didn't know was that their water bottles contained a lot of spiritual water from the space that Qin Zheng had fetched for them.

So, although we have been exercising a lot recently, no one feels too tired.

Just as we arrived at the target position, we saw a reconnaissance plane flying from the south again, circling over Mufeng Mountain.

The existence of Qin Zheng and his men did make the 1st Marine Division very angry and troubled.

Knowing that there is such a small group of enemies, it is more troublesome to deal with them.

If we put more people into it, we can achieve the enemy's goal and affect the speed of advancement;

If there are not enough people involved, it will not work and may even cost lives;

Let's bombard it. We can't find the enemy's exact location. The range is too large and we can't afford the losses.

Let's bomb with planes, the cost will be even greater.

Therefore, it is most appropriate to send special forces to clear out the rioters.

Of course, although the concept of special operations already exists in the world, there are no troops called special forces. They are still called by the previous names. For example, the US military has two names: Rangers and Scouts.

The soldiers who went into battle today were from Company A of the Reconnaissance Battalion of the 1st Marine Division of the United States.

The reconnaissance plane has been hovering over Mufeng Mountain at an altitude of more than 1000 meters to ensure that it will not be attacked.

If you have a bird's eye view, you will find that a group of fully armed soldiers started climbing the mountain from the foot of the east side of Mufeng Mountain. They were nine in a row, three in a group, and each row was ten meters apart. They moved forward in batches in a fan shape along the ridge and both sides. The soldier at the end would look back after taking a few steps forward, and always stay alert behind the team to avoid being attacked from the front and back.

I saw that they always walked on beams instead of ditches, and walked vertically instead of horizontally. They would take the next step only when their feet were firmly on the ground. They were indeed experienced in mountain warfare.

Some people in this group have been in contact with the observers on the reconnaissance plane, asking if any suspicious targets have been found.

At 3 o'clock, the enemy had approached the 2nd row of positions.

Company Commander Lawrence was observing the ridge ahead. It was relatively narrow there, and after crossing the ridge, the altitude of the mountain rose significantly.

This place is very suitable for enemy ambush.

Thinking of this, he confirmed again with the observer on the reconnaissance plane to see if there were any suspicious areas ahead.

The observers on the reconnaissance plane had been observing the area below through binoculars, but unfortunately, the area below was so densely populated with trees, bushes, and rugged rocks that it was too suitable for hiding, and they could not observe anything unusual.

Lawrence warned: "The front is suitable for ambush, beware of enemy raids."

As he spoke, he fired a shot at a place ahead that was easy to ambush. Other soldiers also fired at suspicious targets.

There was no change ahead, as if there was no one here at all.

However, as a veteran of many battles, he had a strong premonition that the enemy was just ahead.

I moved forward cautiously for another thirty meters, but still no enemy appeared.

"Is there really no one?"

At this time, three rows of soldiers had already walked onto the slightly narrow ridge.

"Shhhhhh!"

Suddenly, the sound of artillery fire was heard from more than a hundred meters ahead.

"Boom boom boom!"

Three rockets came from high above and exploded right between the first two rows of soldiers, like a landslide, with debris flying everywhere. Nine soldiers fell to the ground instantly, especially the six in the front, who were obviously dead.

They were all blown to pieces.

"Enemy attack, take cover!"

Lawrence shouted, and the soldiers quickly hid in the bushes and disappeared completely.

Although there were casualties, Lawrence was not surprised but happy. The enemy was right ahead and the mission would be completed by eliminating them. He had already imagined the glorious moment of wearing the medal of honor.

When the enemy appeared, the reconnaissance plane in the sky flew away instead.

There is no point in keeping it here. The pilot doesn't believe that he can lose with 120 people against 30.

But it was this kind of underestimation of the enemy that made them pay a heavy price.
