Since Costa believed that "the best time to defeat the Chinese paratroopers is when they are about to land on the ground," the combat order he issued at that time required the squad, platoon, and company-level officers to launch an attack as soon as they could assemble their own teams. Frankly speaking, his order itself does not have much of a problem. It is just that the Brazilian army is far behind the Chinese paratroopers in terms of organizational capabilities and individual soldier quality. As a result, his opinion What seemed like a wise order turned into a "wrong command" given to the Chinese paratroopers to defeat them one by one.
As for why he did not see a fierce battle when he arrived at the battlefield, but only saw many subordinates who seemed to have become extras in a war movie, firstly, the Brazilian soldiers were really unsatisfactory. Not only were their combat capabilities negative, but they were also fundamentally They have not established the sense of honor that soldiers should have; on the other hand, the Chinese paratroopers are too humorless. The Brazilians are all laughing and shouting that they will not fight, but they have no intention of showing mercy at all, and Brazil People simply do not have the ability to remain calm when a mountain collapses before their eyes. Therefore, when the Chinese paratroopers finally shouted in various foreign languages to surrender their weapons, the Brazilians not only immediately threw down their weapons and raised their hands to surrender as if acting in a tacit understanding, but also And they became extremely tame over time. When the Chinese soldiers ordered them to sit down, they immediately sat on the ground. When the Chinese soldiers asked them to put their hands on their heads, they immediately put their hands on their heads, not daring to show any disobedience.
The enemy was surprisingly weak. As a commander, Chu Meng was naturally overjoyed. However, for his men who had not fought in a serious battle for a long time, this was "too boring".
"This is it." A paratrooper looked at the Brazilian soldier sitting in front of him with his head in his hands, but there was no expression on his face that he should have as a prisoner of war, and asked his comrades.
"How strange." His comrade said.
"It's boring, I thought it would be fun." behind them, a corporal said.
Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded, and everyone instinctively grasped the steel guns again. After startling the Brazilian prisoners of war in front of them, they completed the assembly at a very fast speed.
"The enemy's main force is coming." The explanation about the emergency gathering was quickly conveyed. Although everyone curled their lips in unison, they still maintained a high degree of vigilance. Then, as assigned by their respective commanders, they either stayed in place to guard the prisoners of war, or Heading to a new front, while running, many people began to bet on how long it would take to defeat the enemy's main force.
"I bet for a quarter of an hour, a package of the Great Wall, who will come."
"Ha, Wang Datou, you think we are fools. Brothers, if I drive for ten minutes, I will get the same packet of Great Wall."
"Li Chuizi, you are a bitch. You always like to play against me. Brother, I will drive for five minutes and buy two packs of the Great Wall. Do you want anything?"
"Wang Datou, are you serious?"
"Wang Datou, I'm coming."
"I want, I want."
For the students of the Middle East Expeditionary Force, there are two things they love most. One is the original tape released by Bai Liusu a few years ago; the other two are the Great Wall and Dadao cigarettes. The former is because of Bai Liusu's identity. Nowadays, no company in the country dares to record her tapes and records anymore. Things are rare and precious, and their preciousness is self-evident. The latter, because even the treatment is second to none among all the troops. Each soldier of the army only has the ration of two packs of Great Walls per week and two packs of broadswords per month. Although its preciousness is far less than that of Bai Liusu's original tapes, its practicality is even better. Years abroad, Almost everyone in the expeditionary force has become a smoker from top to bottom, and because even if you have money in the Middle East, you can't buy the Great Wall and a sword, so the rations naturally become the meat and potatoes that everyone loves.
The Brazilian army is indeed vulnerable, but even five thousand pigs can be killed in more than ten minutes. Therefore, Wang Datou's new bet immediately aroused everyone's pursuit, but they did not want to think about what would happen if If Wang Datou really loses, even if he is good at drugs and is willing to admit defeat, where will he get so many Great Walls? After returning to China, Wang Datou will be willing to admit his defeat, and I believe they will not have the shame to actually take them.
"Nonsense, is this a vegetable market?" The growing noise finally aroused the dissatisfaction of their platoon leader Yuan Congzhi. He shouted sharply, which immediately made everyone's hearts tremble, and then they couldn't help but press their lips together. However, just when everyone focused their attention on the enemy in front again, Yuan Congzhi's next words made them blink their eyes and flap their ears almost at the same time.
Yuan Conzhi: "Wang Datou, what if I bet for less than ten minutes?"
The person involved, Wang Datou, had the most amazing reaction. He was so shocked by his platoon leader's reaction that his eyes widened. After a while, he habitually asked: "What?"
Yuan Conzhi: "I bet the battle can be resolved in less than ten minutes."
"Ah." This time, it was a student next to Yuan Congzhi who screamed first.
After Wang Datou spent about two minutes digesting this sentence, he gritted his teeth and said: "The same two packs of the Great Wall."
Yuan Congzhi glanced at his subordinates, chuckled mischievously, and said, "Everyone heard it, did anyone follow the bet?"
In the special operations brigade, there are still many people like Yuancong's platoon who are still doing nothing before the war. This is actually a way for the special operations brigade to relax before the war, and it is also one of their traditions. It just falls behind Costa. In his eyes, he had the feeling that the Chinese army was mediocre. For the same reason, he was still puzzled after suffering a defeat. He expressed the following emotion: "Obviously it is a loosely disciplined army, why is it that the army is not fighting well?" It’s really puzzling for Chinese soldiers to be so brave.”
The result of Yuan Congzhi's platoon's bet naturally ended with Yuan Congzhi's victory. In fact, the total time from when the battle started again to when the Brazilian army was completely defeated was less than eight minutes.
It sounds like a fantasy, but this is Costa's real experience. The two sides were more than 500 meters apart. Because he wanted to rescue his captured men, Costa took the lead in issuing the attack order. Immediately, the gunshots started crackling, and the gunshots had just begun to take shape, and screams rang out one after another from the Brazilian army.
Seeing that the main firemen in the front row were shot in the head one by one, and the momentum of the charge was immediately curbed, Costa realized that something was wrong, and launched a charge from a distance of more than 500 meters. This is considered a combat tradition of the South American army, because Only in this way can they maintain the morale of the troops. As the distance gets closer, what they will test next is not their marksmanship and willpower, but their luck. The luckier side will have fewer dead people. If they kill more enemies, they will immediately gain an advantage in momentum and gain the opportunity to destroy them, and vice versa.
Only this time, because their opponent was the Chinese, and the special operations brigade focused on marksmanship the most, the result was naturally one-sided.
