Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Chapter 397 Lying about military information

When Commander Miloš Chuatoko, who led two battalions of government officers and soldiers, received Bassam's telegram, he was also stunned. He did not expect that the one who attacked Bassam's battalion turned out to be the main force of the rebels.

At this time, he didn't have time to think too much. Since the enemy's main force had been entangled by the first battalion, it was obvious that they would not be able to escape in a short time. He did not want to miss this opportunity to eliminate the enemy's main force.

Therefore, the two battalions were directly ordered to divide into two groups. The second battalion followed him to rescue the first battalion, and the third battalion was responsible for launching an attack on Manguari Town according to the original plan.

Soon, under the personal leadership of Commander Miloš Chuatoko, the Second Battalion quickly landed on the beach closest to the First Battalion and moved directly towards the First Battalion's camp to encircle them.

As time passed, when they approached the battlefield, the sky had turned white. Unfortunately, the light in the Amazon jungle was still dim and visibility was very low.

Fortunately, the fierce gunfire near the battlefield can point the direction for reinforcements.

When Captain Miloš Chuatoko arrived near the battlefield, he felt something was wrong.

Because Bassam told him that this was the main force of the enemy, with as many as a thousand people, but what he saw now was obviously inconsistent with the intelligence!

Although the enemy attacked the camp of the first battalion from all directions, there was only one real main attack direction. The other directions were completely feint attacks to attract attention. As for the main attack direction, if Miloš Chuatoko expected it to be true,

, and only has about one company of troops.

Although they have now entered the camp of the 1st Battalion, the rebels, who obviously do not have the advantage in terms of strength, have been blocked by the 1st Battalion behind the second line of defense.

But at this time, he had already arrived with reinforcements, and it was impossible to change the direction of the attack now.

When everyone heard this, they quickly stood at attention and saluted, and they all responded in unison!

By the time the rebels broke through a camp and rushed into the jungle on the opposite side, less than ten people were left.

Then the responsible people followed the regiment commander and entered the battalion commander's tent, while the soldiers at the scene had already begun to collect the body of their battalion commander.

As the rebels who were finally able to move broke through, the entire camp of the first battalion finally returned to calm.

At this time, Captain Miloš Chuatoko had no other choice. After all, the third battalion was still resisting. If he suspected that there was an ambush against them in the town and retreated, they would all

Team morale may be lost.

The two sides started shooting at each other from a distance. Under the newly brightened sky, Bassam, holding a short gun in his hand, was very conspicuous.

However, the speed of advancement in the jungle was obviously limited. Although the team was moving slowly, the speed of advancement made Captain Miloš Chuatoko a little anxious.

This allowed the rebels who were eager to break out to seize the opportunity and shoot at him.

Under the constant urging of Commander Miloš Chuatoko, the remnants of the Second Battalion and the First Battalion, which had just experienced a battle, gathered again and began to move towards the town of Manguari.

Captain Miloš Chuatoko looked at the small town street that was just around the corner, but he hesitated.

Where can the rebels easily escape?

With a company searching for enemies on both sides of the advancing direction of the large army, the troops completely ignored the bullets fired from the jungle on both sides, and the advance speed was significantly accelerated.

Captain Miloš Chuatoko pulled a battalion of soldiers and said in a cold tone.

After all, the situation he sees now is still very different from what Bassam reported in the telegram.

"Captain, the enemy has planted mines on the road ahead, and we have lost three brothers. We are now organizing manpower to clear mines, and the forward speed is limited!"

This shows that the contents of the telegram sent by Bassam seriously exaggerated the facts.

We could only bite the bullet and order all the soldiers of the second battalion to attack directly towards the enemy's rear.

Then he went straight to deliver the order without stopping.

Then he turned around and left to convey the order.

"The second battalion attacks from the streets and advances. The first battalion is responsible for covering the flanks of the second battalion. Let us eliminate all the rebels in Manguari. Forward!"

Bassam's face, which was still excited when he saw the reinforcements arriving, suddenly turned ugly. He knew that if he was easily escaped by this group of enemies at this time, it would definitely not be a good end for him.

Being caught off guard by this sudden attack, without waiting for the soldiers to react, the rebels took their weapons and launched a desperate charge towards the battalion position that had just been baptized with grenades.

When the ordering soldiers heard this, they quickly stood at attention and saluted.

With his face ashen, he had no time to blame the dead Bassam and shouted to the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield:

"Everyone gather together! Hurry!"

After hearing this, Captain Miloš Chuatoko couldn't help but be startled. He looked in the direction pointed by the other party and indeed saw a group of people surrounding him.

Looking at the thick smoke rising above the streets in the middle of the town, and the increasingly sparse gunshots.

Therefore, he didn't have time to think too much. He picked up the pistol in his hand and took the few remaining guards with him, and rushed towards the rebels who were charging towards them.

Although there was no enemy or any ambush visible to the naked eye, it gave him the illusion of being in a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

The rebels who entered the jungle took advantage of the small number of people and disappeared into the dense jungle like monkeys.

The two of them had also seen their captain, and they quickly stood at attention and saluted. Everyone around them quickly followed suit and saluted.

When the soldier saw this, he did not dare to hide it. He pointed in the direction of the battalion headquarters and said:

"I heard from my brothers that when the rebels broke out, they encountered the battalion commander. There was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, and the battalion commander died in the line of duty."

"Tell your battalion commander to come see me!"

This left Captain Miloš Chuatoko with nowhere to get angry. He could only glance at the crowd and saw two company commanders from the first battalion present.

But the enemy obviously did not intend to let them take it easy, and several gunshots could be heard from time to time in the jungle on the way forward.

Obviously, he is really dead.

Just as Miloš Chuatoko finished speaking, continuous gunshots rang out from the direction of Manguari Town, and everyone understood what this meant.

The officers of your first battalion and above the platoon level will gather with me at your battalion headquarters and give me a detailed explanation of the situation you encountered."

This desperate fighting style directly broke through the front line that the first battalion had managed to maintain. The rebels charged and attacked directly in front of them without any care.

In just a few minutes, both sides of the war suffered dozens of casualties.

Just when Captain Miloš Chuatoko thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, two violent explosions came from the front, and the entire team had to stop again.

Because the gunshots coming from the town slowly began to become less intensive, which gave him a very bad premonition.

"Order the Second Battalion to send a company forward to investigate the jungles on both sides of the road and eliminate scattered enemies harassing the large army. The rest of the group should ignore these harassments and the entire army will go straight to Manguari to reinforce the Third Battalion."

"What's going on?"

"Why are you still hanging around here? Since Battalion Commander Bassam has died for the country, let's collect his body quickly.

This situation made his expression change greatly, and he understood that the third battalion attacking Manguari Town must have encountered an ambush.

Everyone began to seize the time to organize their equipment and move closer to their commanders.

"Yes, sir!"

Miloš Chuatoko's face became even more gloomy when he saw this.

After doing this twice, Captain Miloš Chuatoko also realized that this was not an attack on him at all. These gunmen in the jungle were actually harassing him to the point of slowing down his ability to reinforce Manguari.

.

When the soldier heard this, he glanced at his regiment leader hesitantly and hesitated to speak.

When the officer who came to report heard this, he looked at Captain Miloš Chuatoko with a troubled face and said hesitantly:

"Captain, now we are unable to determine the size of the minefield the enemy has deployed ahead, so we cannot give an accurate time!"

This situation forced him to go crazy.

Hearing this, Miloš Chuatoko couldn't help but cursed:

Give the rebels on the Manguari battlefield more time to eliminate their own three battalions.

Soon, the stagnant team began to move, and everyone left the already poor road and walked into the dense jungle.

As if to confirm his conjecture, as soon as he looked in the direction of Manguari Town, an earth-shattering explosion came from the town. He could clearly feel the huge impact even five kilometers away from the town.

Ignoring the soldier, Captain Miloš Chuatoko quickly walked towards the crowd. As expected, he saw Bassam lying on his back on the muddy ground. The medical soldiers next to him had given up rescuing him.

However, the rebels were also ruthless characters. Seeing that they were about to be completely surrounded, they immediately took out the grenades without hesitation, concentrated their strength, and threw a hail of grenades at the already exhausted battalion position.

Accompanied by the soldiers, Captain Miloš Chuatoko walked into the camp that had been penetrated by the enemy. His face was very ugly.

"Yes, sir!"

The soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield in the camp were also shaken by the sudden big explosion, and their eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the explosion.

The purpose of Captain Miloš Chuatoko's gathering of everyone was, of course, to understand the true situation they had experienced.

It wasn't until they heard the roar of their captain that they realized what they were doing. They all dropped what they were doing and began to assemble according to the captain's orders.

The Second Battalion in the rear followed closely behind these rebels. After less than 500 meters of pursuit in the jungle, they had to give up. Because these rebels were obviously more familiar with the jungle environment than they were.

Commander Miloš Chuatoko was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot at the moment. He knew very well that if the rebels set up an ambush in the town of Manguari and wiped out all three of his battalions, his strength would be greatly reduced.

will be greatly damaged, and the logistics supply base is occupied by the enemy, and the weapons and ammunition they have are beginning to run out.

At this time, Captain Miloš Chuatoko obviously had no time to care about these false courtesy, he waved his hand indifferently and said:

It was a pity that the rebels who had been fighting for more than two hours were already suffering from many injuries, but the second battalion that was now surrounded was a fresh force, and the strength of the second battalion had more than three times the advantage.

Commander Miloš Chuatoko issued a new order without hesitation.

If the third battalion besieged in Manguari could not be rescued in time and the town of Manguari could not be rescued in time, they might run out of ammunition and food and risk being eaten by the rebels. This was something he absolutely could not accept.

The two groups of troops fired nearly a hundred rounds of bullets at each other in just two minutes, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Because, from what he saw, the enemies attacking here were not the main force of the rebels at all, and their number was even less than the more than a thousand people Bassam said.

As soon as the gunshots sound, everyone will instinctively start to look for bunkers to hide, and then commanders at all levels will send soldiers to launch a counterattack against the enemies who attack them.

There are three battalions under his command. The current situation seems that one battalion is about to be crippled. If the battalion commander dies in battle, it will be a huge loss.

The rebels, who had already been blocked from attacking, were in a panic when faced with the sudden attack. As soon as these veterans realized that something was wrong, they began to break out without hesitation.

Soon, through the accounts of these front-line officers, Captain Miloš Chuatoko also understood the actual situation at that time. The situation he saw was obviously consistent with the actual situation.

“If you have something to say, say it, and if you have something to say, let it go!”

"Everyone go around the minefield from the jungle on both sides and don't stop. I don't believe these damn rebels can plant explosives all around the entire town of Manguari."

Captain Miloš Chuatoko felt uneasy for a while, and soon the news from the front confirmed his suspicion.

Raising the telescope in his hand and looking at the nearby town of Manguari, Captain Miloš Chuatoko was extremely anxious.

As the sun slowly broke free from the shackles of the dark jungle and revealed a bright red head in the sky, the entire scene of Manguari Town slowly appeared in front of Captain Miloš Chuatoko.

"Assholes, these damn rebels. How long do you think it will take to clear the mines?"

Bassam, who was finally forced to be brave, felt his body shake before he could react. When he lowered his head, he saw a few more blood holes on his body. Then all his strength began to disappear, leaving him weak.

Fell down in the muddy camp.

When the surrounding guards saw this situation, they fired at the rebels who rushed in regardless.

But the enemy never stayed where they were. When the soldiers rushed into the jungle, they often found that they could not find any enemy at all.

Seeing his superior's gritted teeth, the officer did not hesitate and stood at attention to salute.

After reacting, Captain Miloš Chuatoko rushed out of the camp as soon as possible and set his sights in the direction of Manguari.

He glanced at the soldiers around him who had finally broken through the enemy's obstacles and arrived outside the small town of Manguari.

The soldiers of the first battalion, who were excited when they saw the arrival of reinforcements, never expected that the rebels would put their breakthrough direction on their side.

This made his face look even more ugly.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and ordered to the soldiers:

At that time, there would be no need for the enemy to attack at all, and these soldiers might simply collapse, which he absolutely did not want to see.

As his order was issued, the following companies took action one after another. As a battalion that had just fought a battle with the rebels, it was only responsible for flank cover, which was regarded as the regimental commander's care for them.

Because they are basically in a remnant state now. Nearly one-third of the entire team has been killed, including the battalion commander. After more than two hours of fighting, weapons and ammunition have begun to be in short supply.

If they were to be the main attacker, they might get discouraged halfway through the charge.
