I work as a mercenary in northern Myanmar - #425 - Chapter 417 DEVGRU B
The sound of the squad’s machine gun firing was like a signal. All the mercenaries of the Dongfeng Corps tore off their camouflage and fired wildly at the fire points they could see.
At this time, Chen Chen’s foresight was clearly demonstrated. If there were no identification marks between friend and foe, in the current extremely complex battlefield environment, the Dongfeng Corps might even have its own men open fire on their own men, and then kill themselves. Lose!
But even so, the Dongfeng Corps still did not have an advantage in the melee. The reason is simple. The seals have already surrounded most of the Dongfeng Corps!
This was the real reason why they took action. Although they could not find the specific location of the members of the Dongfeng Corps, inferring based on the combat intentions of both sides and the basic principles of war, they weaved a big “pocket” and combined the original pockets of the Dongfeng Corps. , put it in again!
Now, 6 of the 9 remaining members of the Dongfeng Corps have been pocketed, and when they are exposed, each of them will receive crossfire from at least three directions!
The dense bullets made it impossible for everyone to raise their heads. If it weren’t for the dense trees and numerous bunkers nearby, and the level 4 body armor that could withstand large-caliber bullets in front of them, the Dongfeng Corps would have been wiped out in just the first round of strangulation. .
“Use throwables!”
Chen Chen shouted loudly.
His voice revealed his position, and bullets from two directions were immediately pointed at him, but what surprised Chen Chen was that this time, the seal’s accuracy in hearing the sound and identifying its location seemed to be decreasing.
Maybe the chaotic gunfire interfered with the other party’s judgment?
Without any time to think, Chen Chen rushed to the side, but he did not expect that the side of him was not solid land, but a huge cavity caused by tree root rot and soil erosion.
His body immediately fell into a deep pit, and the humus directly covered his chest. But fortunately, the density of this thing was not very high, and it did not make him unable to move.
But even so, it is impossible to escape in a short time.
Without any hesitation, Chen Chen threw out all the smoke bombs on his body.
At the same time, the smoke bombs thrown by other members of the Dongfeng Corps also exploded, and smoke surged everywhere in the dark woods.
Yes, smoke cannot block the detection of thermal imaging night vision devices, but it does make low-light mode useless.
Chen Chen clearly felt that after the smoke bomb exploded, the opponent’s firepower density dropped by one level.
Obviously, this seal has re-entered the observation and waiting stage, and the current shooting is just to suppress the actions of the Dongfeng Corps in the encirclement.
If you want to break out and fight back, this is your only chance.
“Concentrate fire and break out to the north!”
Chen Chen said this in Sichuan dialect.
He was not sure if any of the SEAL team members were proficient in Chinese, and the magic of Sichuan dialect was that when it appeared in the form of short sentences, most northerners who were proficient in Chinese could understand its meaning.
But if you are a non-native speaker and want to understand, it is not so easy.
After the order was issued, all team members immediately began to assemble, and this action was indeed unexpected by Seal.
The Eastern Corps’ advantage in sustained firepower and continuous firepower was finally brought into play. Even if it did not have an advantage in information, the density of bullets made up for the lack of observation. After the five people closer to the north gathered together, they relied on a round of determined The assault successfully advanced 50 meters to the north and broke through the seal’s pocket.
In the process, they once again killed and injured the seals.
Of course, they paid a price.
In a short distance of 50 meters, a total of two people fell down, their lives and deaths unknown.
Now, there are only 7 people left in the Dongfeng Corps, and judging from the position where the seals fired, their number will not exceed 10.
There is no significant difference in the number of people between the two sides. As for who can survive, it depends on who is stronger, who is faster, and who is more desperate.
At this time, due to the breakout of five men from the north, the Eastern Corps finally changed the disadvantageous situation of being surrounded, and the enemy and ourselves re-entered into a chaotic fighting formation with different teeth.
The two sides have their backs and sides exposed. The flame suppressor can eliminate part of the fire, but it is absolutely impossible to completely hide the whereabouts. As long as anyone on the two sides fires, they will immediately be bitten by the peripheral enemies who occupy a good field of vision.
The situation is finally getting better – but that’s only in terms of the overall situation.
As for Chen Chen himself, he was already in an extremely dangerous situation.
His command password revealed his importance. After the approximate location was locked, dense bullets continued to fly over his head, completely suppressing his actions.
The reason why it has not been hit until now is partly due to luck, and partly because the pit is located below the “horizon”, unexpectedly forming a relatively complete bunker.
But as the enemy’s encirclement shrinks, it will be a matter of time before he is caught.
If he were disabled on the battlefield, the battle would not have to be fought.
Chen Chen struggled desperately to get out of the pit. This was actually not too difficult, but it only took 10 seconds, and the continuous firepower was only cut off for less than 10 seconds. A chain reaction like an avalanche had already occurred.
The seals on the periphery pressed forward again and seized the bunker with an excellent view. The four people remaining on the south side were completely surrounded. Apart from relying on grenades to block the enemy’s attack, they had no means of counterattack!
There are also advantageous terrains in jungle fights. Vegetation growth is dense and dense, terrains are high and low, and the field of vision is wide and narrow. And those seals occupy the advantageous terrain with incomparable accuracy.
Yes, they had already surveyed this area, but the problem was that even so, they shouldn’t have fought so smoothly.
Chen Chen’s mind was spinning rapidly, and he quickly went through all the details of the two sides from the battle to the present.
It is normal for the other party to discover your own position first.
In jungle warfare, who discovers who first is often not a technical issue, but a matter of luck. Discovering first does not bring much advantage, because you can only find one at most.
This is indeed the case. After the veteran was shot, the Dongfeng Corps immediately counterattacked and caused damage to the seals.
Up until that point, the two sides were evenly matched.
The real disadvantage came from the short-lived “Dark Forest” offensive.
It is the SEALs who use their “super-awareness” of the battlefield environment to establish their advantage.
But where does this perception come from?
sound.
It can only be sound.
“Shock bombs! Whoever has shock bombs! Throw them all out!”
Chen Chen took the risk and shouted again.
His voice completely exposed his position, and the accuracy of enemy bullets increased again, and a ricochet even directly grazed his neck.
——
Fortunately, there is a neck brace!
Immediately afterwards, dense explosions of shock bombs were heard.
Even in the woods, the sound was shockingly loud.
The decibel value of this thing is much higher than that of a grenade!
And its effect can also be said to be immediate!
Of course, this immediate effect was not discovered by Chen Chen himself, but the perception of the three people who had already emerged from the encirclement.
Before the shock bomb exploded, the seals’ reaction speed was astonishingly fast. As soon as they fired, the opponent would be able to lock onto their position within one second. No matter how they ran or hid, it would be useless.
But after the shock bomb exploded, the opponent’s reaction speed obviously slowed down.
They need to judge, search, and verify, and the time has come to more than 3 seconds.
This is the normal range!
After all, even at the limit of human speed, if you want to search for suspicious targets within a 120-degree angle based on the sound source in the jungle, it will take at least 3 to 4 seconds. If it is night, without obvious infrared indicators, it will take 10 seconds. All of the above are possible.
Seals have an advantage in both training and equipment. The level of 4 seconds is the truly logical level without “supernatural perception”!
In this way, the gap in strength between the two sides was completely evened out.
The Dongfeng Corps’ long-standing “firepower superiority theory” equipment arrangement finally played a decisive role.
Now the three team members on the north side have three serious machine guns in their hands. No matter how powerful your M14 is, can it still compete with machine guns?
20 seconds later, when Chen Chen finally climbed out of the pit and organized suppressive shooting at the enemy in front, the three men on the north side also achieved new results.
Two seals were caught trying to distance themselves, and bullets caught up with them through a gap in the forest, knocking them to the ground.
And when they fell to the ground, the entire seal offensive began to collapse.
In an instant, the wireless communication was completely restored, and the communication sounds of other team members came to Chen Chen’s ears. Without any hesitation, he immediately ordered to the radio:
“Maintain firepower advantage and continue to suppress!”
“Lin He, find a reliable observation position and mark the enemy’s position!”
“clear!”
The restoration of communication boosted everyone’s morale, command became effective, and actions became orderly. After confirming the relative positions of everyone, Chen Chen quickly made adjustments and arranged 7 people into 3 groups for alternate cover. The defense line was stabilized for a while.
Four light machine guns drive the fire center to assume cover duties, and three rifles serve as the main shooters for precise harvesting.
After a two-minute stalemate, a machine gunner of the Eastern Corps was knocked down by four grenades that were thrown intensively, while a shooter of the Seal was killed by Chen Chen with extremely fast speed and precision.
This shot completely shattered Seal’s confidence.
From the beginning of the war to now, despite having a comprehensive advantage, they have reduced their number by 5 people!
This is definitely a heavy loss that they cannot bear. Now, they are in a dilemma.
beat? It may not be possible to beat it.
Walk? Who would be willing to leave under such a loss? ——
No, they’re not stuck between a rock and a hard place.
They began to retreat.
The distance of the gunfire had obviously become farther, and Chen Chen’s heart suddenly shuddered.
Then, he spoke:
“Withdraw! Withdraw! Withdraw!”
“Their plane is coming!”
“Take the wounded away!”
“Look for a body! Find a body and take it away!”
“found it!”
The veteran’s voice came from the earphones, and Chen Chen ran away without any pause.
He knew that he was already more than 1 minute behind the seals.
They were also running away, and it was absolutely impossible for them to call for air support before they were out of the danger zone.
Because they cannot use ordinary aerial bombs.
To destroy evidence, there is only one thing they can use.
Napalm.
The power of this thing is so uncontrollable that it can burn a large area regardless of the enemy or the enemy.
They won’t take this risk, but they will definitely use this thing to intercept the direction of the Dongfeng Corps.
The remaining 6-man team of the Dongfeng Corps plus one seriously injured person completed the rendezvous, and then began to run southward under the leadership of Lin He.
But at this moment, the roar of propellers could be heard in the sky, and then, a huge flame suddenly ignited less than two hundred meters in front of them.
This precise distance control
The Dongfeng Corps’ hope of escape was almost completely blocked. Their only option was to turn around and head north, but there were not only seals there, but also another round of napalm bombing.
what to do?
“Rush over, trust me, rush over!”
Lin He shouted.
“Don’t be ridiculous, this is napalm, not an ordinary forest fire. You can’t get through it!”
“Two hundred meters! If you walk along the river bank, you won’t burn that fast! There is no chance to turn back, so you can only rush over!”
This is a difficult choice. To continue going south is to risk your life.
But if you go north, there is a high probability of slow death.
Who knows if the seals are responding there, and who knows if there is a trap there?
It seemed that Chen Chen had no other choice.
And Lin He’s next words made him immediately choose to believe him.
“The wind is in the wrong direction, and the fire will burn eastward. Let’s go through the river!”
“Follow Lin He!”
With an order, everyone moved forward quickly.
It took them less than five minutes to cover the distance of two hundred meters.
In fact, as Lin He said, this “fire belt” did not completely block the path of the Dongfeng Corps. The nearest fire point was less than twenty meters away from the small river. The hot air was enough to scorch the hair, but when it hit After getting wet, all of them rushed through the fire belt and reached the further south of the jungle!
Escape.
This can almost be said to be a defeat – but from another perspective, it is also like a great victory.
The panting veteran dropped the seal’s body. The man was still struggling when he carried him on his back. Since Chen Chen said he only wanted the body, the veteran shot the seal in the forehead without hesitation.
Now, he is dead.
By this time, the second and third rounds of napalm bombs had been dropped, and the entire mountain forest had turned into a sea of flames.
The fire lit up the night sky in Pubei red, and black smoke shot straight into the sky. The scene looked like the end of the world.
Chen Chen took two deep breaths and then lowered his head.
Looking at the helmet on the man’s head and the equipment on the helmet, he finally understood why the Eastern Corps was so passive in this battle.
“Damn, it’s really a seal.”
“This is no ordinary seal, this is DEVGRU B”
“What is DEVGRU B?”
The veteran asked from the side. Chen Chen frowned and replied:
“The black squadron of SEAL Team 6 is a reconnaissance team, and their equipment is different from the four attack teams of red, gold, blue and silver.”
“Then how do you know they are the black team?”
how do you know?
Chen Chen sneered and did not answer immediately.
To be honest, generally speaking, it is difficult to tell which squadron the DEVGRU members come from, but the current situation is a bit special.
Because from this man’s head, he saw an extremely, extremely special piece of equipment.
16-way individual anti-sniper radar.
Although this thing is called an anti-sniper radar, it is actually a sound wave detection system that locates the direction of gunshots through the difference in sound waves detected by 16 microphones, achieving the purpose of quickly detecting enemies in complex infrared and natural light environments.
This equipment was available in 2012.
Besides DEVGRU B, who else can use it? !
