"Are you kidding? You want to defeat my company with only 12 people. God, are the Rockman family crazy?" Johnny, who looked shocked, had been thinking non-stop since he received the order from his superiors for the exercise.
The arrogant boy who cursed the Rockman family. Johnny's infantry company is completely based on the training content and organization of the German commando. Except for the different weapons and equipment, other things, including the soldiers' barracks, are almost the same.
"Okay, I will act according to the order." Johnny, who was frustrated by his superior, returned to his company angrily. Since the superior's opinion has decided the matter, as a subordinate, he can only act according to the order.
Otherwise, just defying orders would be enough for him. The training ground was placed at a training base of the Washington National Guard. Johnny placed his company on a high ground, where the view was wide and easy to defend.
I don't believe that the opponent's 12 people can break through their own defense.
The person who served as the target of this exercise was a military aide close to Roosevelt. Vincent, who graduated from the West Point Military Academy, had always been obsessed with the study of small-scale combat tactics. This exercise of 12 people against an entire company just suited his appetite.
According to the regulations of the exercise, the infantry company commanded by Johnny can enter the exercise ground 6 hours in advance to build fortifications and defense lines. However, the 12 mercenaries selected by Zhao Zhi are still sleeping soundly in the tent, and the officers who came to observe the exercise are
They all secretly bet that the mercenaries would fail.
"Evan, you can't do it here. Remember what I said during training? The trenches are the guarantee of your survival. You must dig the trenches into position as required. Continue." Johnny was like a toy mouse that was wound up.
He was scurrying back and forth on his own defense line, looking for gaps in the defense line bit by bit. Vincent, who was sitting under a tree enjoying the cool air, was so tired for Johnny. Aren't they just 12 enemies? Is he so neurotic?
"Attention boys, it's going to be dark soon. According to the requirements of the exercise, as long as we protect our big shots here for 24 hours, we will win this exercise. The regiment headquarters has already said that as long as we win the exercise,
Each of you has three days off, and you can go wherever you want, drink and chat with women." Johnny's words made the soldiers who were already tired of this exercise cheer loudly, and their desire for vacation and beer made them start
Hopefully the drill will start soon so they can end it early and hug women.
Like Johnny said, as time went by, the sky got darker and darker. Johnny's soldiers lay down in the trench and stared straight ahead with their eyes wide open. They were waiting for the attackers.
arrival. Things did not develop as Johnny thought. It was not until 3 o'clock in the morning that the expected attacker did not appear. Vincent, who was being guarded by the group, was also a little puzzled. He carried out attacks and sabotage at night.
It's just for convenience. Why haven't those so-called Thunder mercenaries launched an attack yet?
As time passed, the waiting soldiers slowly lost their patience. Restlessness began to appear in the trenches. Some brave guys even started to close their eyes and sleep. All the soldiers believed that the other side would not conduct a night attack.
, even Commander Johnny became a little uneasy and started to feel restless. "What are they going to do? Do they want to wait until we have exhausted our physical strength and then launch an attack directly after dawn? But they only have 12 people, even with 6
Even a machine gun is no match for me?"
Johnny was upset and unknowingly reached out for a cigarette and put one in his mouth. Just when Johnny lit up the lighter and approached the cigarette to light it, something strange suddenly appeared, and a rubber bullet hit him.
His helmet was hit. Although it was just a rubber bullet specially designed for acting, Johnny's head still swung uncontrollably in the direction of the bullet. "Okay, Commander, you have been killed." In charge of the battlefield.
The referee who made the decision tore off Johnny's red armband. The latter looked at the white spot on the helmet and gritted his teeth.
The commander was killed. This news shocked the soldiers of the infantry company. The platoon leader who took over the command was sweating profusely. No one expected to deal with the commander who killed them first with long-distance sniping.
. You must know that if it is in actual combat, the death of the commander will be a big blow to the morale and fighting spirit of the troops. With Johnny's lessons learned, the officers and passive soldiers carefully lowered their bodies.
, no one will dare to act contrary to the battlefield environment.
"Killed in action, killed in action, or seriously injured. I judge that you are out. You can choose to act as corpses or leave the battlefield directly with your weapons." Two flares were fired into the air. Under the cover of the cold light of the flares, the mercenaries fired again.
Black gun, the referees on the high ground are busy. So far, 14 people from Johnny's company have been ruled out.
"Do they just want to defeat us in this way?" The mercenaries' black gun attack lasted for nearly an hour. The platoon leader who took over Johnny's command was a little confused. Their opponents never showed up, but only used long-distance precision shooting.
Attacking those soldiers who accidentally exposed themselves, but there are 130 people in my company. If the attack continues like this, let alone 24 hours, even if it is another 24 hours, the attackers will not be able to kill them all.
The officers who were watching the battle also had the same question as the platoon leader. The news they received was that only 4 of the 12 Thunder mercenaries had walked out of the tent so far, and the remaining 8 Thunder mercenaries were still staying there honestly.
In the tent, if Thunder really wants to use sniper tactics to defeat Johnny's company, then it doesn't matter if he doesn't watch this exercise, it's just like a child playing a game.
"They're coming out, they're coming out, look." An officer who had been paying attention to the mercenary tent cried out, and everyone looked in the direction of his finger. Eight mercenaries in black were walking out of the tent, their
Commander Zhao Zhi was giving instructions in a low voice. "It seems that they still plan to conduct this exercise with a night attack. 12 people versus 130 people. It seems that this exercise is interesting." Although the exercise venue is now dark,
The officers who were watching the battle were still discussing around the sand table in great interest.
Eight mercenaries dressed in black disappeared into the night. Zhao Zhi, who watched the mercenaries leave, did not return to the hall, but sat alone on the grass and smoked a cigarette. The smell of tobacco made him miss his previous life.
The life of a mercenary. "Bang" and "bang" two flares were fired into the air, and "click, click, click, click". A light machine gun in the grass fired violently at the infantry company's defense line. Although the shot was aimed at the infantry,
The soldiers of the company posed no threat, but the infantry company on the high ground was still successfully diverted.
"Go up", the eight mercenaries who were crawling quickly against the ground took off their camouflage and rushed towards the trench not far ahead. The black military uniforms when the mercenaries set off had already been replaced by field camouflage. The black military uniforms were just Zhao Zhao's.
It was a concealment method used to confuse the officers watching the battle. The mercenaries rushed into the trenches like cheetahs and began to kill the soldiers of the infantry company along the trenches. The most suitable weapon for close combat was the pistol. The Garand rifle was suitable for hiding in the trenches.
It was a bit of a hindrance to the infantry company soldiers in the trenches. The sudden appearance of the mercenaries in the trenches made the soldiers panic. However, they had no weapons at hand, so they had to watch themselves being killed one by one by rubber bullets fired at them.
The mercenaries rushing into the trenches were like tigers entering the forest, and the shouting infantry company soldiers were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Although the officers watching the battle could not see what was happening on the high ground, the high ground was shaking.
The general shouting and the dejected soldiers who quit the exercise proved everything. The first ray of sunshine appeared at the exercise ground, and Vincent, who acted as the target, found that there were only 30 soldiers left to protect him on the high ground, and the rest of the soldiers had already
Contact with them was lost, and the entire highland defense line fell into deathly silence.
"Johnny, do you want to continue? All of your people are almost dead." Colonel Rook, who came to cheer for his subordinates at the turn of the scene, had a livid face. Johnny's company is considered to be one of the best in combat effectiveness in his regiment.
, but such a company, which he had high hopes for, was judged to have lost more than 70% of the troops in just one night when facing 12 people. If this was placed in actual combat, 70% of the troops might have been lost.
He had already chosen to surrender or be disbanded. Fortunately, he didn't say much to the other officers when he came, otherwise he would have been embarrassed.
"The exercise is over, the Thunder mercenaries have won, the casualty ratio is 130 to 0." Just when Johnny was making a difficult decision, the exercise referee announced the results of the exercise. When Luke blamed Johnny, the 12 Thunder mercenaries who completed the encirclement
The mercenaries had quickly eliminated the remaining 30 infantry company soldiers and successfully "rescued" the target man, Vincent.
Zhao Zhi, who had been out of sight of the officers, stood like a javelin at the assembly point and "saluted". The 12 mercenaries returned to the starting point smoothly. The officers who came to watch the battle consciously lined up. After a long drink, the officers looked at each other solemnly.
The mercenaries saluted and paid tribute. The best thing for soldiers is definitely the military salute. The performance of the Thunder mercenaries has conquered the respect of the officers present. Vincent, who was carried back by the mercenaries as the target, was already wondering whether he should
He quit his job at the White House and looked for an opportunity to join Thunder's mercenary army to experience it.
The exercise came to an end without any suspense, but Zhao Zhi, who returned to Rockman's villa, was very dissatisfied because the mercenaries who participated in the exercise unexpectedly changed their tactics temporarily, giving up the smoke that could defeat the enemy and choosing to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the infantry company.
To win at any cost, this is also the creed of mercenaries. Zhao Zhi does not want his foreign mercenaries to look like mercenaries, but actually fight like regular soldiers. If this is the case, he will set up a foreign mercenary task force.
