Chapter 307 Despair
The battle came suddenly.
About half an hour after Yang Jing returned to the warehouse, four flares suddenly rose from the sky, illuminating all the area within a radius of thousands of meters centered on the warehouse.
The next moment, the security guards on the four corners made miserable screams - there were many of them... Damn, RPG...
More than 20 security guards holding Lee Enfield rifles equipped with scopes on the fence also used the scope to identify their respective targets while the flares were lifted off.
During the British colonization of Myanmar, a large number of Lee Enfield rifles were left behind. This rifle can be used as a sniper rifle if it is equipped with a scope. Therefore, many snipers are using this gun, whether in northern Myanmar or in government forces.
Unfortunately, their movements were a little slower. While these security guards who acted as snipers pulled the trigger, more than a dozen government soldiers carrying RPG rocket launchers had fired rockets on their shoulders one after another.
More than ten flames spanned more than 150 meters in less than two seconds and rushed towards the four corner towers of the warehouse. Although most of the flames passed by the corner tower, the corner tower was too big after all, and a rocket still hit the corner tower.
The warhead equipped with two kilograms of high-energy explosive burst out unparalleled energy the moment it touched the wall of the corner tower. The huge energy directly pushed the eight corner towers into the sky...
You should know that this RPG7 single-soldier bazooka can even penetrate the armor of the T72 main battle tank. It is not as difficult as tearing a piece of paper when dealing with the walls of the corner tower that are only a few dozen centimeters thick.
Three of the four corner towers disappeared directly in this attack. The only remaining corner tower was magically not hit by the concentrated fire attack of five rockets. The five security guards on the corner tower were also lucky to escape.
Then, the snipers on the wall also began to show their power. After a series of crisp gunfire sounds passed, the more than ten government soldiers carrying rocket launchers were all knocked down, and the only surviving soldier on the corner tower also controlled the squad machine guns on the corner tower and let out an angry roar...
A series of bullets and tracer bombs passed countless ballistic traces in the night sky. Even though the flares in the sky were still bright, they could not cover up the ballistic trajectory of these bullets.
The corner tower and the fences were fired and counterattacked. Similarly, in the mines about 100 meters away from the fences, countless government soldiers were raising their guns to shoot.
For a moment, the warehouse area seemed to have become a huge magnet, firmly attracting all the bullets.
Before the four flares had fallen to the ground, four more flares were fired in the distance. It was obvious that the military commander of the government army wanted to turn the night into daytime and use the advantage of the number of people to capture the warehouse area.
Although the warehouse area is located on a small highland, it is a mining area more than 100 meters away from the warehouse area. The large pits dug out in the mining area are natural bunkers. It is really difficult for government soldiers to hide in these large pits.
But similarly, these government soldiers did not dare to show their heads. There were five or six snipers holding Li Enfield rifles equipped with scopes on each wall in the warehouse area. Whoever dared to show their heads at a distance of more than 100 meters would inevitably be killed by these snipers.
Moreover, although there is still a corner building left in the warehouse area, this corner building is high. Once a squad is opened and fired, this machine gun can suppress the fan-shaped area several hundred meters wide in front.
The only remaining corner tower is located in the northwest corner of the warehouse. With the advantage of being condescending, the machine guns on the corner tower can block the north and west sides tightly. The snipers on the wall also realized the importance of the only remaining corner tower. They all looked away. As long as they found someone dared to show up with an RPG, these snipers could immediately kill the other party as soon as possible.
As for the gate to the south, there is a 12.7mm large-caliber heavy machine gun guarding the gate, and the machine gun is close to the ground. The machine gunner even stands directly in the pit and only reveals one head. There are two observers holding heavy shields next to it, guiding the shooting direction for the heavy machine gun.
This heavy machine gun is so well hidden that even if the government soldiers carry the RPG and aim carefully, they may not be able to hit it, let alone five or six snipers protecting the heavy machine gun on the walls on both sides of the gate.
The two sides were in a stalemate here. Although the government army was large in number, they were not stupid, and they did not dare to rush to attack with machine guns. Most of the soldiers of the government army still held old-fashioned semi-automatic rifles, most of which were rifles left by the Second World War, including weapons left by Japanese, Americans and British people, and only a few were equipped with automatic rifles.
Although the number of security guards in the warehouse area is at a disadvantage, except for those snipers, almost everyone else has an automatic rifle, which can play a suppressive advantage in firepower alone, not to mention that the warehouse area also has a good location.
If the government forces have any advantage, it is undoubtedly those RPGs single-soldier rocket launchers. The wall on the east side of the warehouse area lacks heavy firepower suppression, and only seven or eight snipers are fighting against a large number of RPGs, it is obviously not enough to catch it. The wall on the east side has been blown open by the RPG, which was caused by the three rockets of the government forces hitting the piece together.
However, this is the only two achievements achieved by the government army. After the battle started, the government army killed three corner towers, the opening on the east wall was the second and last gain for the government army tonight.
Chiron had a good plan, and removed the 12.7mm heavy machine guns from the gunboat to support the side. Even if there was a 12.7mm heavy machine gun, it would be enough to solve the damn corner tower.
No matter how powerful a squad machine gun is, it cannot be compared with this large-caliber heavy machine gun. This heavy machine gun that can easily penetrate cement walls of dozens of centimeters can even directly flatten the damn corner tower!
But what made Chiron feel desperate was that before the machine guns could be transported to the front line, the reinforcements Yang Jing called for arrived.
......
Nicholas Ballmer is also a very tragic person to talk about.
This arms dealer born in the 1950s had a stable and highly-paid job. He served as a middle-level member of Lockheed, the world's largest arms company at the time (and was then merged with Martin Marietta in 1995), and was responsible for contacting some small and medium-sized arms companies in the United States.
The reason why the United States can become the world's number one arms power is closely related to several domestic arms companies. Whether it is Lockheed Martial Arts, Boeing, Thor and General Dynamics, they are all famous arms companies, each company's annual turnover is more than tens of billions of dollars.
In addition to these large arms companies, there are many small and medium-sized arms companies in the United States. Most of these small and medium-sized arms companies cooperate with those large arms companies. Large arms companies such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing are like general contractors, while small and medium-sized arms companies belong to the second and third-sized arms companies.
Nicholas Ballmer is the person responsible for contacting, negotiating and signing contracts with small and medium-sized arms companies.
Originally, Nicholas Ballmer did a good job in this position, but in a cooperation in the late 1970s, one of his staff made a mistake and accidentally leaked some of the core secrets of the cooperation to the arms company that was preparing to cooperate, which resulted in the failure to complete the cooperation.
If we follow the normal confidentiality agreement, Lockheed only needs to deal with Nicholas Ballmer's subordinate, but that subordinate has a good relationship with Nicholas Ballmer. Nicholas expressed his dissatisfaction with the company's handling methods after drinking. As a result, these complaints came to the ears of senior executives of Lockheed.
So Nicholas Ballmer was fired by the company first, and then in a car accident while returning home. If he hadn't been skilled enough and picked out of the car at a critical moment, he might have died in that strange car accident.
Just when Nicholas hadn't noticed something was wrong, a few days later, his wife was in a car accident while picking up the child, and his wife and two children were all unfortunately killed...
At this time, if Nicholas still didn't understand what it meant, he would have been in Lockheed for nothing over the years.
Nicholas has long known many things when working in such a large arms company, and he has witnessed many dark and incredible things happening with his own eyes.
So, when this sudden disaster came to him, he immediately realized that the company had taken action against him.
Fortunately, Nicholas worked for more than ten years in Lockheed and established some secret relationships in private. In this situation where human destruction could be artificially destroyed anytime and anywhere, Nicholas decisively activated some hidden channels and fled the United States in a panic.
All the relatives died and they could not return even if they had a family. Nicholas immediately changed from a middle-level company that everyone envied to a stray dog.
He fled to the Middle East because it was the most chaotic place in the world; he reopened the stove here because he only knew arms; he sold arms to the revolutionary army of Iran because he wanted to revenge on Lockheed and even revenge on the United States...
Nicholas Ballmer, who has experienced drastic changes in life, has completely turned from a gentle and gentle person to a wild wolf wandering in the war. With his ruthlessness, superior IQ and knowledge reserves, he successfully established his underground arms trading network in the Middle East, and made a certain reputation among the many arms dealers active in the Middle East...
This time, after Nicholas Ballmer got in touch with the mysterious Cole Smith, his intuition told him that this was a thick thigh and he should be hugged!
