Firepower is king

The spirit was extremely agitated and the situation became increasingly tense, but the enemy never came.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

The kind of state that gradually tightens the nerves to the extreme, but always fails to trigger it, can really make people completely collapse.

Gao Guang and the others had been in preparation since nightfall, waiting for the enemy to launch an attack at any time, but the enemy did not make any move.

It seemed like two shots were fired in the morning, killing two people just to say hello.

Gao Guang knew that he should let people take turns to rest, but he couldn't relax at all. He couldn't even close his eyes and take a nap.

I was so nervous that it was difficult to breathe.

I don't know what the enemy is going to do, but I have to admit that this time the enemy has indeed created unprecedented psychological pressure on Gao Guang and the others.

Gao Guang suddenly sat up. He took a breath distractedly and wanted to curse, but he was worried about waking up several people who were already asleep, so in the end he just waved his fist in the air.

But the highlight's movements still woke John up.

John was clearly snoring just now, but he just said softly: "Why, can't you sleep?"

"Well, aren't you nervous?"

"Slowly you will get used to it, go to sleep."

John didn't mean to enlighten Gao Guang, because he knew that anything he said was useless. Of course, chatting with Gao Guang would help stabilize Gao Guang's mentality, but John didn't want to waste his rest time.

Gao Guang raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was midnight, half past twelve, and his shift didn't change until two o'clock. He still had an hour and a half to rest.

From eight o'clock to two o'clock, most of the six hours of rest time was wasted, with only one and a half hours left, and it seemed that it was of no use even if I fell asleep.

Gao Guang felt even more upset, but at this moment, a sudden explosion cheered him up.

First surprised, then happy, followed by the sense of relief that it has finally arrived.

Gao Guang would rather fight with the enemy than wait endlessly.

"Enemy attack!"

Gao Guang jumped off the bed, grabbed his rifle, picked up the helmet that was next to him, put his combat backpack behind him, and started running out.

"Don't be so anxious. If someone asks for help, go out. Forget it, you can't sleep anyway, so just go and have a look with you."

John got off the bed, but Mike, who was sleeping in a daze, said in confusion: "Did the fight start? Has the fight started?"

"The fight is on, the fight is on! Let's go check out the situation."

I have always been afraid of something happening, but after it happens, I feel less nervous when I have to face it.

Gao Guang rushed out, and then said on the intercom: "What's going on outside! It's over."

"The enemy attacked the office building with mortars, but no one attacked. Over."

After Fang Zhenwu finished speaking on the walkie-talkie, he said very uncertainly: "But the enemy will probably attack. It's over."

There was just an explosion, and then there was no movement. The excited and excited Gao Guang's footsteps slowed down, and then he said helplessly: "Isn't it just harassment?"

As Gao Guang said, this is harassment.

Everyone was woken up. Everyone returned to their positions and stood ready. However, looking around through the night vision goggles, there was not a single figure.

"Where did it explode?"

Fang Zhenwu pointed at the office building and said helplessly: "Where, on the roof of the building, that location must be a mortar. The rocket launcher can't hit that location. I just raised my head, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the location of the explosion."

Fang Zhenwu and the four of them were not on the roof because the small building of the treasury was too low and might be attacked by snipers. In addition, it was just a warning, so the four of them stayed in the room.

The main pressure is borne by Alpha Company on the periphery. Highlights: Three of them can concentrate on sleeping, two of them stare outside, and two of them rest aside. Then they rotate every hour, so that none of the seven people are too tired.

Gao Guang looked at the roof of the building, and then he said on the intercom: "Mad Dog calls Langley, what's going on, it's over."

Soon, Langley said angrily on the intercom: "Sixty mm mortar, two of our brothers on the roof were injured. The enemy just fired one shot and left. We haven't found the enemy's position yet. complete."

The sixty mm mortar hit the target with the first shot and left with one shot. The meaning of harassment was so strong that there was no need to guess the enemy's intention now. This was already a certain fact.

This one shot was enough to keep everyone in the factory awake, so the enemy could obviously fire more shells, but they didn't. They just used this one-shot bombardment to continue to torture Gao Guang's nerves.

The Tiaomen was pulled higher and higher, and the nerves were pulled tighter and tighter, but the enemy just didn't give them a chance to fight vigorously.

This is the enemy's psychological tactic to exhaust his troops.

The so-called attacking the heart is the most important thing. The enemy's shot really hit the defender's heart.

Several people had nothing to say, and they had no use for all their strength and courage. This was really painful.

"Sleep, sleep, go back to sleep."

John suddenly yawned. He waved his hands and said, "Just do whatever you need to do. If you need to sleep, keep sleeping. I'm going back."

Paul said helplessly: "What if the enemy attacks?"

"Then let's fight back. But now that the enemy hasn't come, don't worry about it. The next shot is estimated to be between three and four o'clock. It will allow us to relax after the tension caused by this shot disappears." When the time comes and another shot is fired, if it happens two or three times, people with poor endurance will collapse."

It was hard to tell that John was not very smart, and he was very sophisticated when it came to analyzing psychological tactics. Several people in the room were stunned for a while, and then Patrick suddenly said: "You look like you have a lot of experience."

"Of course, we have done this to others, and we have been done to others in this way. When we were in Iraq, this happened every day. Have you never experienced it?"

Patrick spread his hands and said: "When I arrived in Iraq, there were no longer long tug-of-wars. The security situation was much better. At least this kind of shelling would not last for a long time."

John said carelessly: "I don't know how many people have become neurasthenic because of this situation. In the end, they have some kind of post-war syndrome. They always feel like there will be bombs coming at any time. Those are weaklings with too fragile nerves. I hope you won't It’s okay to be frightened by this bombardment.”

After finishing speaking, John looked at Gao Guang and said: "You... better relax, but if you can see the enemy, shoot. If you can't see you, just pretend the enemy doesn't exist. There is nothing to be nervous about."

Gao Guang knew that John was pointing him out, because he was really too nervous.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm not nervous. Well, you guys go to sleep. I'll watch here for a while."

Patrick immediately said: "Great, please pick up my shift in advance. I want to take a nap."

Mike, John, and Patrick left. They continued to sleep in the dormitory, but Fang Zhenwu said to Gao Guang: "I guess you can't sleep either, so you can guard the window for me. I'll lie down for a while."

Fang Zhenwu yawned. He went to the small bed next to him. He didn't take off his helmet or body armor. He lay down directly on the bed with the gun in his arms. Within two minutes, he heard a slight snoring sound.

Everyone’s nerves are very strong.

Gao Guang sat by the window, and Paul was opposite him. The two of them could see the entire office building and the conditions on both sides of the office building. Although the field of vision was limited, they could still see some of the conditions outside.

The lights must not be turned on. You can only use night vision goggles to observe the outside. After the two of them sat at the window for more than ten minutes, Paul finally said: "Let's talk about something, boss. What do you think the enemy wants to do?"

"Continue to put pressure on us. When we can't bear it anymore, they can easily take away all the gold."

Paul whispered: "That means the number of enemies is not large. Do you think so?"

Gao Guang thought for a moment and said: "It should be so. If the enemy has an overwhelming advantage, they can just charge and take us down at this time. Since they use this kind of psychological tactic, it means that they are not sure of victory in a strong attack." .”

"Yes, I think so too, but this tactic has little effect in the short term, but how long can the enemy be sure to harass us like this? A week? Do they have such a long time?"

Combining the information he knew, Gao Guang thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. We don't know when the reinforcements will arrive. If the reinforcements don't arrive, the enemy can keep besieging and harassing us."

After a few words, there was nothing more to say. Gao Guang and Paul also fell into silence. After a while, Francisco climbed up from the bed. He yawned, rubbed his face, and then came By the window, he said to Paul: "You go and rest, I will watch for a while."

After Paul went to bed, Francisco and Gao Guang said, "Let's chat for a while. Do you think the enemy will shell again?"

There was another round of the same conversation, again with nothing to say, and then when the time reached two o'clock in the morning, John and the others came over and took away Fang Zhenwu and Paul.

At this time, Gao Guang was already feeling sleepy. He couldn't sleep while lying on the bed, but he finally felt sleepy while sitting next to the window.

Fortunately, it can be rotated during sentry duty, and Gao Guang can now lie on the small bed next to him and fall asleep soundly.

Gao Guang felt that he had just fallen asleep when an explosion suddenly woke him up from his sleep.

Waiting for Gao Guang to sit up subconsciously and look at his watch on the horse, he saw that the time was 3:20 in the morning.

"My judgment of time is really accurate..."

As expected by John, it was exactly what time the gunfire was scheduled to start, so Gao Guang almost immediately became less nervous this time, but this bombardment was not just one, and Gao Guang hadn't finished speaking yet. Explosions sounded one after another.

After exploding more than a dozen shells in a row, Gao Guang was forced to wake up. He knew clearly that this was a plan to attack the enemy's heart, but it was impossible to maintain a relaxed attitude.

If the enemy really wants to take the opportunity to attack, as long as he has this mentality, it is impossible for Gao Guang not to be nervous.

Of course, it’s not just the highlight that’s nervous.

"Did the enemy attack?"

Malcolm asked nervously on the intercom. He was not so panicked last time when only one shell came in.

But Langley shouted on the intercom: "There is no attack, just firing, these bastards!"

Naturally, Langley wanted to curse a few times. His tone and voice were obviously irritated. After cursing a lot, he said angrily: "No one was hurt this time, but if you keep waiting like this to bombard anyone, no one will be hurt." Can’t stand it.”

After Malcolm and Langley finished speaking, Gao Guang said calmly: "The enemy is harassing us and messing up our mentality. Their next round of bombardment should be at dawn. Tell the brothers, it's okay. Don't pay too much attention to the enemy's shelling, they are just harassing us."

Gao Guang just wanted to comfort others and give Langley a warning, but Langli was already in a mess. He said angrily: "Of course I understand this, but it's not you who were bombed on the roof! That's it. Come on, I'll arrange a new location, that's it."
