Chapter 349: The Tall Upstart "The legion is my motherland."
"The honor of the Legion is my life."
The remaining 300 paratroopers from the 1st and 2nd Paratrooper Company raised their right arms in unison and shouted slogans to the sky. After an impassioned oath, this army that had been defeated many times was once again full of passion and enthusiasm.
Full of vitality, they took square steps and rushed towards the hinterland of the primeval forest majestically.
With a violent explosion, the battle started again.
Dozens of lrac89mm rocket launchers blasted wildly at the gathering place where Ye Feng and others were gathering. The roaring rockets were like a sudden burst of meteor showers, overwhelming and turning the primeval forest that had been silent for a long time upside down.
Ever since Ye Feng told Liehuo that the paratroopers were scheduled to evacuate Cutthroat Island after dark, Liehuo quickly took countermeasures and led everyone to retreat all the way to the hinterland of the virgin forest to avoid close contact with the paratroopers.
Avoid its sharp edges and use retreat to advance.
The reason why Agni took such a countermeasure was well-founded. Although the parachute regiment at this time had suffered repeated defeats, for the sake of the honor of the regiment and as the evacuation time was getting closer, they had to burn everything in the hope of being able to
Fight to the death with everyone. If we carry out sneak attacks and harass the paratroopers now, they will definitely be entangled by the paratroopers relying on the human sea tactics. Then the situation will immediately change and develop in the direction desired by the paratroopers.
The parachute regiment has time to evacuate, but Ye Feng and others do not have this time limit. There is no problem at all if they stay in the virgin forest for a few more days, a week, or even ten days and a half. Before coming to Cutthroat Island, Van Gogh
Sufficient food and drinking water have been prepared, plus the supplies seized from the parachute regiment in the past few days. Let alone half a month, it would be enough for everyone to live on this desert island for a month or two.
enough.
Retreating does not mean that everyone is just tolerant. When it is time to fight back, you still have to fight back.
However, in order to avoid close direct contact with the paratroopers, everyone's counterattacks mainly focused on sudden cold arrows and long-range attacks.
After Ye Feng killed the snipers of the 3rd Paratrooper Company around the hill, he also brought back two FR-F2 sniper rifles, which came in handy. Ye Feng, Thor, and Liehuo each held a sniper rifle.
, launched long-range snipers at the swarming 1st and 2nd paratrooper companies, while the four Vipers lurked around the three, responsible for warning and cover.
With the sniper rifle, a long-range attack weapon, the fire tactics were well demonstrated, and everyone kept the firefight distance at 500 meters.
The distance of 500 meters, coupled with the cover of crisscrossing trees in the virgin forest, makes the famas assault rifles and AA-52 light machine guns in the hands of the paratroopers somewhat inadequate. The bullets reach 500 meters away, which is the end of the crossbow.
Unable to carry out precision strikes.
Suddenly, Li Huo, who was hiding in the tree crown, made a cease-fire gesture to Ye Feng and Thor. Although Ye Feng and Thor were a little puzzled, they immediately stopped firing.
I saw Fiery Flame quickly sliding down the tree crown, standing on a thick vine, holding the modified sniper rifle in both hands, and pointing the black muzzle at the assembly area of the paratrooper regiment.
The expression on Liehuo's face was extremely serious, his eyes were pressed tightly against the sight, and he was concentrating on observing the situation in the distance. As time passed by, Liehuo's legs turned slightly, adjusting the direction of the muzzle, but his
But his upper body was as stable as a rock, especially the two big hands holding the sniper rifle, which were holding the gun body motionless.
Thor tiptoed to Ye Feng's side and whispered in a low voice, "It looks like a big fish."
Ye Feng said nothing, a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Time seemed to have frozen, and the fire was still standing motionless on the vines.
Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Li Huo's mouth, and his right index finger, which had been hooked on the trigger, gently pulled the trigger. His movements were skillful and steady, and he just hooked his finger so lightly.
Bang, a ball of fire erupted from the black hole of the gun, and a high-explosive armor-piercing projectile burst out of the air. The huge recoil violently impacted Li Huo's chest, but Li Huo still stood motionless on the vines, his eyes tightly focused on aiming.
Mirror, through the high-power low-light sight, quietly watching the prey in the distance.
Take a shot and change the place. This golden rule of sniper, Lie Huo turned a deaf ear at this time, and stood there straight. After a few seconds, Lie Huo slowly jumped down the vine, with a stern expression on his face.
Heart smile.
"The deputy commander of the paratrooper regiment is dead. Let's retreat quickly to prevent them from retaliating with rockets." Lie Huo greeted everyone loudly.
The last school-level officer of the Parachute Regiment was shot dead. Everyone was overjoyed to hear this. Even though they were retreating, everyone was smiling.
Everyone quickly retreated to the hinterland of the virgin forest, retreating more than a hundred meters, but they did not hear any counterattack gunshots, let alone a large-scale rocket attack.
"What's going on? Could it be that now that there is no leader, these soldiers are starting to retreat?" Van Gogh sat down on the ground, breathing heavily.
Ye Feng was also very puzzled. When Liehuo sniped and killed other school-level officers of the paratrooper regiment before, he was met with fierce rocket fire from them, but this time, the remaining more than 300 paratroopers did not move at all.
Thor also stopped and looked at the fire and said. "We don't want to retreat anymore. We should first understand the situation and then make a plan."
Liehuo looked at his watch and saw that the time had reached two forty-five in the afternoon. After thinking for a while, Liehuo said. "Viper, you immediately go back the way you came and quietly approach the parachute regiment's assembly area to see where they are.
What tricks are you doing? Come back and inform us as soon as you find out the situation."
The viper remained silent, nodded slightly, got into the crisscrossing vines, and then disappeared.
"Everyone, we are made of iron rice and steel. If we don't eat even one meal, we will be hungry." Van Gogh took off his backpack, took out the vacuum beef, and distributed it to everyone one by one. "Everyone eat more to replenish energy."
"He is such a foodie. He eats all day long." Wollid rolled his eyes at Van Gogh, grabbed a bag of pastries, turned around and sat under the tree and ate happily.
Van Gogh shrugged his shoulders in a pretentious manner, turned around and said to Ye Feng and others with a smile, "Women, they always mean what they say."
"Van Gogh, be careful, rockets are coming." Wolie suddenly let out a scream.
Being scratched by stray bullets one after another, Van Gogh was already feeling a little guilty. When he heard Wollid's alarm, he was frightened. He hurriedly dropped his backpack full of food, held his head in his hands, and jumped behind the tree.
However, Van Gogh, who was huddled under the tree, did not hear the explosion. Instead, he heard laughter one after another.
Amidst the laughter of everyone, the poisonous snake appeared quietly.
"They retreated and are retreating towards the east beach."
"I guessed it right." Although he was laughed at by everyone just now, Van Gogh seemed to be a normal person. He walked to the crowd half show off and half show off, and said with a smile. "It seems that I am still very good.
Foresight.”
After learning the news, Liehuo also immediately changed his tactics. "We will chase them, and while they are retreating hastily, we will ambush them a few more times."
A chase begins.
However, what shocked everyone was that the remaining 300 or so paratroopers seemed to have no intention of fighting. As soon as the exchange of fire broke out, they collapsed thousands of miles away and rushed towards the east beach in a swarm. They retreated in an extremely panic, and they also
It was extremely messy, not to mention the tactical formation. Even the troops responsible for covering the retreat of the large forces were not prepared. They just ran away with their heads in the air, as if they were not facing seven enemies at all, but seven thousand or seventy thousand.
Army.
This was not a war at all, but more like a hunt, and those paratroopers were like prey surrounded by hunters, running and running, wishing that their parents would give them two more legs.
By the time everyone chased them to the edge of the primeval forest, the time had already reached 3:40. Along the way, everyone effortlessly shot and killed more than a hundred paratroopers.
However, when the remaining 200 paratroopers retreated to the east beach, an earth-shaking change suddenly occurred. They no longer panicked, but immediately set up a tight defensive formation. Some people were responsible for building fortifications and fortresses, while others were responsible for
Defense alert...
The entire east side beach was in good order, and the formation was also very tight. Seeing this, everyone immediately stopped attacking and quickly hid at the edge of the virgin forest.
"It seems that they have given up on their original intention and instead insisted on saving their lives." Liehuo said.
The plotters have been killed, and the only ones left are a few generals. Looking at the paratroopers hiding in the fortifications, Ye Feng no longer has the thought of continuing to kill. "Forget it, let them go, wait for them to leave by boat.
After that, it’s time for us to go back.”
At this time, a whistle sounded.
Four warships suddenly appeared in the waters east of Cutthroat Island.
With flying flowers flying, the four warships came slowly from the northwest, dragging their huge bodies, slowly passing through the eastern waters of Cutthroat Island, and then speeding away towards the southeast.
"Why did the French warship leave?" Thor raised his eyes and looked into the distance and said in confusion.
The four French warships were getting further and further away, and Van Gogh said in confusion. "Why did they just leave like this? Aren't they going to send the paratrooper regiment back to Europe?"
"The parachute regiment was abandoned." Ye Feng sighed.
"Abandon." Wolid exclaimed in disbelief. "How could Sania abandon the soldiers who shed blood and sacrificed their lives for him? It is so unethical."
"If you know the history of the French Foreign Legion, you won't be surprised." Liehuo's face remained calm, but there was a trace of sadness in his tone. "Although the French Foreign Legion is a regular army, the French government also follows the regular army's materials and equipment.
to arm them. However, in the eyes of the French government, they are just a dispensable army. When in crisis, they will be remembered; when blood is needed, they will be remembered; if the situation is not good, they will be abandoned immediately
, and cut ties with them.”
In the vast sea, the four French warships have turned into small black dots. Liehuo put down the telescope in his hand and continued, "The Legion is my motherland. This is the oath of the French Foreign Legion. From the heart, they are from
Professional soldiers around the world do not regard France as their object of allegiance. To them, the French government is more like a boss, and they are just wage earners fighting for money." Liehuo continued.
Michelle sighed and said, "I wonder if these paratroopers will continue to fight for the glory of the legion."
"The last time the Foreign Legion was abandoned by the French government was in the 1950s. At that time in South Vietnam, the French government abandoned the Foreign Legion, which was under siege, so that they were completely annihilated. It was not until a few years later that the Foreign Legion was able to
Reconstruction." Liehuo's face became a little gloomy and he sighed. "After more than 60 years of stable life, the Paratroopers Regiment has been abandoned by the French government again. I don't know if these paratroopers can psychologically withstand this blow."
"I have worked hard for my boss for many years and earned countless honors and benefits for him. When the employees needed help the most, the boss secretly took the money and absconded. If I were one of those wage earners, I would definitely hate these ruthless and unjust things.
You are a wolf-hearted boss." Van Gogh muttered angrily with a straight face. "Bosses in this world should learn from me and treat their employees like brothers. Share joys and sorrows with them, not just for those few.
He is a stinky man who abandons employees who have worked hard for him for many years just for a small profit."
At this moment, Van Gogh's despised image of a nouveau riche suddenly became taller. Even Van Gogh's thin body suddenly became majestic.
However, everyone did not have time to express their admiration to Van Gogh. Because at this moment, gunfire suddenly came from the beach.
The sound of gunfire was loud and earth-shattering.
