A machine gunner who can still fire after being shot several times is just the beginning of the battle.
Being able to become Aidid's personal bodyguard, the armed militiamen who are with him 24 hours a day, are all ruthless characters in terms of fighting will.
Coupled with the stimulation brought by chewing khat, it leads to abnormal physical and emotional excitement.
In order to protect their loyal Aidid, each one of them fought with crazy persistence, which was more troublesome than dealing with the fanatical believers of a certain religion.
Long Zhan and his party struggled to kill the machine gunners, and were in danger while clearing the room on the second floor.
Aidid's bodyguards will use various means to cause trouble for Long Zhan and his party.
It's okay to hide in the house and prepare for shooting. In order to clear the house as quickly as possible, Long Zhan uses flash bombs or shock bombs to clear the way, and sometimes even uses fragmentation grenades.
Use the simplest and most violent way to deal with possible enemies in the house.
The trouble is the "dead soldiers".
When Long Zhan and others arrived at the fourth room, a bodyguard suddenly rushed out with a bomb and tried to hug one of them and die together.
If it weren't for Long Zhan's quick eyes and quick hands and strong strength, he would have stumbled over his waist and forcibly pulled out the onions.
Throw him off the fence.
After this guy fell on the first floor and exploded, the whole building shook with such huge explosion force that anyone caught in his arms would definitely turn into mince.
Fortunately, there were not many self-exploding bombs among these people, so Long Zhan and his party were frightened by just one and broke out in a cold sweat.
We searched from the left to the right of the corridor, cleared 8 dormitories, and killed a total of 5 militia bodyguards. No trace of Aidid was found.
Long Zhan looked at the time and it was already 10:15, and 7 minutes had passed since the battle was exposed.
The armed militiamen arrived from one kilometer away, and it only took about 10 minutes at most. If Aidid could not be found before they arrived, it would be very troublesome.
Long Zhan was a little anxious!
"64, this is 11. We found the suspected target and are escaping to the rooftop."
At this moment, Hu Te sent a message.
"Let's go up."
Long Zhan didn't hesitate for a second, said hello, and immediately ran straight up the stairs to the third floor.
Hu Te's team just searched up from here. From this side to the third floor, it is safe. There will be no problem in abandoning the formation and running directly up.
When we got to the third floor and looked across from the stairwell, Hu Te's team was in the opposite stairwell.
The positions of Hu Te's group and Long Zhan's group have now been reversed. Gunfire continues but they can't rush forward. It's obvious that the battle between the two sides is fierce.
Aidid's strategy of escaping to the rooftop is indeed the safest.
There are only two narrow doors for entry and exit on the rooftop. Unlike the stairwells at both ends of the 2nd and 3rd floors, the area is large and it is easy to rush up.
Aidid's bodyguards guard the door tightly, so that one man can block the door and no one can open it.
As long as it lasts for a few minutes and the armed militiamen rushing to support from the surrounding areas arrive, Long Zhan and others who cannot rush forward will be attacked from both sides.
By then Aidid will not only be able to resolve the crisis, but also kill Long Zhan and others who came to capture him.
After understanding Aidid's thoughts, Long Zhan definitely cannot follow his will. No matter what the cost, Aidid must be caught before the militia can support him.
"Let's go, we're on this side, be careful."
Long Zhan looked at the stairs leading to the rooftop and made tactical gestures to Sonny and others.
There are people guarding the door leading to the rooftop on Hu Te's side, and there will definitely be people on this side. It's impossible for the back door to be wide open. Long Zhan and his party don't dare to be careless.
The four people dispersed to both sides of the stairs, their muzzles and sights pointed upwards, and they slowly and carefully touched upwards.
As soon as I touched the corner platform in the middle of the stairs and saw the door leading to the rooftop, a long black object with a wooden handle suddenly flew in from outside the door.
Other American soldiers may not recognize this thing, but Long Zhan, who served as a soldier in China, recognized it at a glance.
Wooden handle grenade!
Although this grenade design is outdated and has been basically eliminated by the troops of developed countries, it is still a hard currency in the third world.
Most of the wooden-handled grenades that have been eliminated by various countries have gone to the African continent.
"Grenade, concealment!"
While Long Zhan shouted, he held the railing with both hands and jumped to the stairs on the second floor.
A grenade that explodes in a narrow place like a staircase will be more powerful than in an open area. The main reason is that the shrapnel will bounce randomly when it hits the wall.
When Sonny, Clay and Brian heard the reminder, they all instinctively took evasive actions.
"Boom~"
The explosion sounded like rolling thunder, with shrapnel and stone chips flying everywhere.
Clay's buttocks heated up as he lay down on the spot, and he knew he had been hit. Brian and Sonny were so shocked that they were dizzy and staggered when they stood up.
Long Zhan, who jumped to the first floor, didn't fare much better. His ears were ringing and he felt severe pain in his right leg and ankle.
When I jumped down, I didn't step on it properly and twisted my foot.
"Fuck tnnd, these guys are so vicious."
Long Zhan shook his stunned head, endured the severe pain in his ankle and limped back to the stairwell on the second floor. He shouted and asked: "Is everything okay? Is anyone injured?"
"I'm fine."
"My butt was bitten, but I still managed to hold on."
"Fake, I'm going to kill this bastard."
Brian, Clay and Sonny responded one after another, but they were helplessly blocked by hand grenades. They finally knew that the Hut team was blocked in the stairwell because of Mao.
With this disgusting trick of throwing grenades when someone appears, it is impossible to rush forward.
This stairwell is almost a dead end.
"Since force is not enough, we can only use outsmarts."
Long Zhan straightened his smashed helmet and stared at the stairwell that had been blown apart beyond recognition, thinking of ways to do it quickly in his mind.
"Yes!"
Seeing the smoke from the grenade floating along the door above the stairs, Long Zhan thought of a good idea.
"Clay, do you still have the smoke bombs?"
In order to maximize the amount of ammunition carried in Dragon War, and because the machine gunner position rarely makes assaults, grenades are basically not used in battle, so only one or two emergency grenades are carried.

During the house cleaning process just now, Long Zhan had already run out of grenades, so he had no choice but to turn to Team B's "Thunder Carrying Man" for help.
"There are two more smoke bombs."
Clay didn't know what Long Zhan was going to do, so he checked his backpack and answered truthfully.
"Give it all to me."
Long Zhan walked up to Clay, reached out and took all the smoke bombs, tore off the safety pins and threw them to the corner platform of the stairs.
"Puff~puff~"
Two smoke bombs exploded one after another, and the amount of smoke sprayed at the same time was very violent.
It only took less than two seconds to completely cover the entire corner platform. After 5 seconds, the stairwell was no longer visible. In 8 seconds, the smoke had safely expanded and flowed backwards from top to bottom to the stairwell on the second floor.
I saw that the entire staircase was shrouded in smoke, and I couldn't see where it was.
Clay and the other three, who were still confused at first, came to their senses after seeing this scene, and knew exactly what Long Zhan was doing with smoke bombs.
