Chapter 990 The bird falls

"Get off the car, get off the car! Be careful!"

"Quick, first row, go to the front and control the intersection on the left. Second row, go to the right, third row in the middle!"

At 00:50, the convoy arrived in Panama City.

There are still ten minutes before the general attack starts at one o'clock, and the Sharp Knife Task Force, which has just arrived in the city, is obviously unable to reach their target location: the headquarters building of the Pakistan Defense Forces within ten minutes.

From the counterattack by the Pakistani fifth company in the base before leaving the camp, to the small resistance forces formed spontaneously by the militia and even the people along the way, all of them seriously slowed down the pace of Carter and his team's advance.

But Carter felt that he was lucky. The main force of Sharp Blade was divided into three parts during the process. The advancing teams on the left and right wings encountered organized ambushes. Two M113s were damaged and one machine gunner was killed.

Only Carter's team always encountered militiamen with only light weapons. Hiding in the armor protection of the M113, apart from being noisy and nervous, there was no security threat.

But everything came to an abrupt end when entering the city.

When the joint team entered the city, all members got out of the car. The soldiers on the ground were responsible for protecting the smooth passage of the armored convoy and preventing some "desperados" on the roadside from carrying bombs and committing suicide attacks.

.

In the air, two AH-6 Bird helicopters arrived simultaneously. They will help the infantry eliminate possible threats on the roof.

Nearly three battalions of troops were scattered on the relatively narrow road in Panama City, and the team was stretched very long.

After arranging the arrangements for the soldiers of his company according to the colonel's order, Carter followed the middle of the team and walked slowly. Occasionally, the sounds of firefights from the front could be heard in his ears, but they were very brief.

At this time, the streets were filled with the occasional chatter of soldiers and the sporadic sound of doors pushing open on the roadside.

“Vete a casa y no salgas!”

When he saw a child's head exposed behind the door of a house on the roadside, Carter stretched out his hand, pretended to be ferocious, and shouted in simple Spanish that he had just learned not long ago to go back and stop wondering what was going on outside.

What.

The sudden attack by the United States caught everyone off guard. Of course, Carter also had reason to suspect that this was purely because of his dishonesty.

They have all declared a state of war with the United States, but the fifth company in the Amado Base in front has not yet withdrawn. And the people, well, they may not be able to react, or they did not expect the war to come so quickly!

At this time, less than a week had passed since Noriega declared a state of war.

There were frequent resistances along the way, but they were not fierce. Carter, who was in the center of the team, never got any chance to fire. He just listened to the front and occasionally some gunshots from the rear. As he listened, the team gradually arrived at the Pakistani Defense Forces.

Near the headquarters building.

The headquarters building is not a building, but a complex of buildings.

On both sides of the main building, there are four buildings surrounding it, with a square-like open space in the middle. Here, the resistance quickly increases.

"Surround this place first, the fourth battalion, I'll leave it to you! The fifth battalion is responsible for the frontal firepower."

"B Company's left wing, C Company's right wing, I lead A and D Companies, as well as the battalion headquarters platoon, responsible for the rear control of the building complex, E Company is mobile and can reinforce each company at any time."

After a brief meeting, the team began to split up. Carter took the armored vehicle of Company C and began to turn right.

Accompanied by the shooting sound of the two Little Bird helicopters overhead, as if bullets were free of charge, Carter and his convoy soon arrived on the street on the right side of the building complex.

Fifteen M113 armored vehicles lined up and stopped in sequence. While blocking the entire street with armored vehicles, Carter was also busy deploying other defense forces.

"Charles, take a squad to the third floor over there and place the grenade launcher up there."

Following the direction of Carter's finger, Charles, the operator in charge of the grenade launcher, saw a four-story building on the street. The balcony on the third floor was very large. To be precise, the window sill was very low, and the shooting range was relatively good.

"yes, sir!"

After mentally confirming that there was nothing wrong with the location, Charles took the order and hurried away with his grenade team and a squad responsible for protecting them upstairs and setting up a grenade launcher position.

"The snipers move freely, and the remaining platoons establish sentry points along this street. Bourne, machine guns are deployed at these positions. Remember, only one-third of the manpower can be used to build fortifications at most! The rest of the people,

alert"

The exchange of fire on the front of the building continued. While waiting for the soldiers to move sandbags from armored vehicles and pile them into temporary fortifications, Carter looked up.

In the building with broken windows, figures were flashing and flames were flying. In front of him was a four-story annex building, and the building was completely dark.

The main entrance faces the annex building on the right side of the square, and the windows facing the direction of the 5th Battalion are only one like those in the corridor. Obviously, deploying troops in this building will not increase the firepower much. The defensive strength of the Pakistani army

We basically gave up deploying troops in this building.

The temporary simple fortifications were set up quickly. As the soldiers entered the fighting position, Carter, who was not fighting in front of him, looked at the situation for a while and confirmed that several openings on this street where enemies could easily appear had been shot by machine guns.

After the blockade, I found a wall and leaned against it, waiting.

Although having firefighting experience is a greater help for promotion, Carter has no intention of joining in the fun head-on. There is no one in the building in front of him, and Carter is happy to be at ease!

No one is good, no one is safe!

He was leaning boredly against the wall at the bottom of the building. In front of him was an M113. On the left and right, there were many soldiers who had not entered the fighting positions on the street. Like Carter, they were resting against the wall, waiting to break into the building.

General attack order.

To be honest, fighting in the US military is a bit boring.

Looking at the Bird helicopter that was constantly circling in the sky and firing uninterrupted machine gun fire, and the gunfire from the front that was washing the ground. Carter seemed to understand where Rabbit's "fear of lack of firepower" came from.

Got it

Bullets and artillery shells are free. First plow the land three times until the fight is almost done, and then the infantry will go in to finish the battle. This kind of battle

Carter can only say it feels comfortable!

Just like him now, he doesn't have to do anything, just wait quietly and watch the artillery fire wash the ground.

However, this sense of participation is really low to almost non-existent. Occasionally, the machine gun on the right side of the road, that is, close to the main building of the Pakistan Defense Forces Building, at the street entrance will fire several times. In addition to giving the main building a little firepower from the side, the entire C

Even the others had no chance to shoot!

And this place is no different than other places in the city. Most of the Panamanians here who are willing to resist are now in the main building. Even if he wants to find someone with cold intentions, Carter can't find him.

In addition to the soldiers entering the fortifications on the street, seventy pairs of idle eyes were wandering back and forth. Suddenly, a cry of surprise sounded.

"OH, my god!! They shot it down?!"

Following the soldiers' exclamations, Carter raised his head and saw a scene he would never forget:

An AH-6 Bird helicopter was spinning and getting bigger and bigger in Carter's eyes!

The machine gunner on the wing was struggling to unbuckle his seat belt; the pilot flashed past, his mouth turning rapidly.
