Chapter 5874: harassing troops

5874 harassing troops

Nearly 500 Anmor soldiers, led by their battalion commander, had already rushed ahead of the enemy to the Devil's Canyon area after a day and night of forced marches, and placed a strict mine array there. These soldiers are carefully selected, and their strong physical fitness ensures that they can carry more ammunition and equipment, and even each can carry hundreds of rounds of machine gun rifle bullets, and six mortar rounds. Continued the combat capability of the troops.

However, Claude and his Oromi federal troops were completely unaware of what the Anmor army had done.

In Ankewei's night sky, there are no stars, only the moon.

The moonlight is so charming that it seems like a lover's eyes. There was no wind, the sky and the earth were silent, and they seemed to be shocked by the powerful force. They dared not make the slightest sound. Only those who did not know the height of the sky and the earth were still making intermittent calls, but their calls were also very weak. .

It was on such a charming moonlit night that Claude led the 5,000-strong Orume Federation Army to quietly leave the garrison, and secretly went south along the border between Ankewei and Anmore. The rest of the wounded soldiers stayed at the station to continue to recuperate. Waiting for their triumphant return. In Claude's view, he will soon return with a full reward, and the Anmor army will soon be completely destroyed by himself.

"The Anmor army and those mercenaries will definitely be crushed by our army." Claude imagined so fiercely in his heart.

With serious injuries, he almost didn't save his life. But he strictly blocked the news. Just to catch the Anmor army by surprise, we must let the mercenary chief and the Anmor army experience the consequences of angering him.

It's a pity that he didn't know that before he left the station, in a secret corner, a secret telegram was already ticking, and the dense radio waves passed through the clear sky and sent him. All of his actions were reported to the Anmore Army who greeted him in front, and to Lin Rui who was far away in Savile.

Claude's fate is doomed from now on.

Along the way, in order to prevent being ambushed by the Anmor army, Claude was also very careful, and arranged guard posts on the front, back, left and right of his troops, making sure that there was no ambush of the Anmor army before passing. Such a cautious approach is indeed very effective, and there are no accidents along the way. The only problem is that reconnaissance takes time, and careful reconnaissance takes even more time, and their troops have to slow down.

According to the original plan, they would pass through Devil Canyon in the early morning of the morning of the 3rd, but in fact, Claude arrived two days late and arrived at Devil Canyon on the morning of the 5th. In other words, it is equivalent to giving the Anmor army a two-day opportunity in vain, and these two days are enough for many troops of the Anmor army to rush a long road to reach the Devil's Canyon, and make a lot of targeted deployment.

Claude didn't know that in the past few days, nearly 20,000 troops of the Anmore Army had gathered around the Devil's Canyon, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Orumi Federation Army.

Devil Canyon is about to become the real devil that devours the Orumi Federation Army.

A long time ago, this canyon used to be a riverbed, but with the changes of history, the vicissitudes of life, it eventually became a dry, barren and uninhabited wasteland. Stone, there is no longer any place to leave a memory. Of course, if desolation is also a feature, it is the biggest feature here.

The Anmor army hid behind an angular granite rock, with the weeds plucked on their helmets, surrounded by weeds swaying in the wind, cleverly hiding the camouflage uniforms on their bodies, it seems that this is the An integral part of a block of land. Lin Rui's mercenary Khan, holding a telescope, carefully searched the northeast direction of Devil Canyon, trying to see something from there. His eyes were unblinking, a little expectant, and a little worried.

He expected the Orumi Federation Army to arrive early, but he was worried that the Orumi Federation Army came too early, and the Trident mercenaries led by him with less than 500 people could not cope.

after all. Even with a large amount of weapons and equipment, the terrain here cannot build effective fortifications at all, and they can only rely on the natural stones here as cover. The mercenary warriors must spread out and fight separately.

In the face of the huge number of the Orumi Federation Army, even a person as brave as a Khan, would not dare to despise it in the slightest. After all, his name is not called out, but actually played out. In the past few years, he has participated in dozens of battles, large and small, and he knows the importance and uncertainty of such battles. sex.

"Sir, it's been a day and a night, why hasn't the Orumi Federal Army come yet?" The Ugandan mercenary soldier beside Khan whispered, his fingers not daring to leave the trigger of the rifle. In the past day and night, they have been waiting like this, and no one knows when the Orumi Federal Army will arrive. Maybe just when his finger left the trigger, the Orumi Federation Army would suddenly appear.

"It's just right now." Khan said lightly, the scar on his face jumped up and down every time he spoke, looking particularly ferocious. This is what he left behind on the battlefields of South Ossetia, the battle that made him famous. However, he led the mercenary warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles. This type of scar has long been accustomed to, and it is not surprising that some warriors have scars on their faces that are even more terrifying than him.

Khan leaned out quietly and looked behind him.

Behind them was the 11th Battalion-level Combat Group of the Anmore Army led by Hubbard. Their sharp knife company arrived in the early hours of yesterday morning. At that time, Khan and the others had only been here for less than an hour. This group of guys, who have always been known as Scud, was really tired this time, and many people were fine when they were on their way. But as soon as it stopped, they foamed at the mouth and staggered, and some people even had strong hallucinations and lost their minds. Fortunately, with the help of Khan and the others, they finally returned to normal.

At noon, the rest of the troops also arrived one after another and entered the Devil Canyon area. The Oromi Federation Army did not come, giving them a respite that was hard to buy. The battalion commanders immediately ordered the troops to rest on the spot. At the same time, the situation here was reported to Lin Rui. Lin Rui was naturally happy when he learned that the trip of the Orumi Federation Army had been delayed, which would mean that more Anmor Army troops could arrive smoothly. He immediately reported the information to the rest of the troops participating in the war, urging them to work day and night to quickly close to the Devil Canyon area.

At night, the various units of the Anmore Army arrived in the area around the Devil's Canyon one after another, waiting quietly for the arrival of the Orumi Federation Army cavalry.

However, Claude didn't know what kind of serious consequences he had caused by delaying his one-day trip. Along the way, he was still extremely satisfied with his prudence. Since leaving Gaoning House, the Oromi Federation Army cavalry led by Claude has been on high alert and tense. For the road they passed, they all sent small troops to conduct serious searches, and they were sure that there was no Anmore Army. existence to continue to move forward.

By the early morning of September 20, the Oromi Federation Army cavalry finally reached the vicinity of Devil Canyon.

Of course, Claude can't take it lightly for the most dangerous areas in this southward route. On the way, he had a detailed understanding of the current terrain of the Devil's Canyon area, and he was assured that there were no factors that were very unfavorable to the cavalry operations of the Oromi Federation Army. More than 30 years ago, the former Orumi's government troops fought fiercely here, and the memory is still fresh, and no Oromi federal army is willing to repeat the same mistakes.

Looking through the telescope, the Devil Canyon is strangely calm, and there seems to be no abnormality at all. It was still so desolate, with only stones and weeds, the weeds swaying in the breeze, up and down. He searched carefully several times and found nothing unexpected.

Maybe it was because he was over-hearted, Claude said to himself in his heart.

But at this moment, in the west of the Oromi Federation Army cavalry, there was a faint sound of gunfire.

All the Orumi Federation troops were slightly startled and looked at the west in unison.

Claude's face was a little gloomy and a little nervous. He looked at his subordinates and said in a low voice: "Go there and see what happened? Is there an army of Anmor's army?"

The officer nodded and turned the horse's head.

Claude raised his telescope and looked westward, but except for the rolling hills, he could see nothing, only large and small stones. But in his heart, he began to feel a trace of unease.

Because of the location where the gunfire came. It was the flanking protection force of the Orumi Federal Army, a 3,000-strong force led by his officers. The intense gunshots indicated that they must have encountered the Anmor army, and the two sides fought fiercely. Judging from the intensity of the gunfire, they may have encountered quite a few Anmore troops.

The officers sent to inquire about the intelligence soon returned and reported the situation in the West to Claude.

The Orumi Federation Army, which was covering the flanks, did encounter the Anmor Army. And the number is indeed quite large, at least six or seven hundred people. These Anmore troops were hidden in the cracks of the stones and shot cold shots, causing the Orumi Federation Army to inflict many casualties. Of course, the embarrassed Orumi Federation commander also organized a strong counterattack, expelled the Anmor army from part of the Stone Mountain, and killed many Anmor army soldiers.

"How many casualties did we have? How many casualties did the Anmor army have?" Claude quickly heard the flickering words in Sierra's words, and said a little annoyed. What annoys him the most is to report good news instead of bad news. This is not because he is arrogant and calm and resolutely resists evil spirits. It was because he felt that it was easy for him to make mistakes in his judgment, but the Oromi Federation Army seemed to like this kind of tone more and more.

The officer looked at General Claude's face, and understood that he really wanted the real numbers, not the superficial fooling, so he said honestly: "But they told me secretly. It took less than five minutes. In time, they killed more than 200 people, but they didn't even catch the hair of the Anmore army. They did see the Anmore army, but when Reynolds organized the troops to attack, the Anmore army Has retreated voluntarily. But haven't you gone far? Still wandering nearby. Reynolds said that these Anmor troops should be the harassing troops sent by those mercenaries, the purpose is to make us startled. Slow down speed."

Claude nodded thoughtfully, turned his head thoughtfully and asked his adjutant, "What do you think?"

The adjutant said calmly: "I agree with this opinion. These should be the harassing troops of the Anmor army, or a small number of mercenaries at all. If they really want to fight us, they should come from the front, or fight with us. In a head-to-head battle, it will not retreat as soon as it comes into contact with us, but it will never leave us too far.

This just shows that the deadly part of the enemy has been caught by us. They desperately need time to attack Ankewei now, so they try to slow us in various ways. I think we should ignore these harassing troops and go south to Ankewei City as soon as possible. "

Claude nodded cautiously.

The sporadic gunshots from the west sounded again.

Cloud was finally convinced that this was indeed the harassing unit of the Anmor army. Their purpose is to try to slow down the speed of the Orumi Federation Army's southward movement, so as to gain enough time for the attack of the Anmor Army.

Now the main force of the Anmor army is in the Songshi Town area. Even if they move at the fastest speed, it will take at least two or three days to complete the transfer. With the local troops of the Anmor Army currently staying in Songshi Town, there is no way to stop the advance of the Orumi Federation Army.

However, it is impossible for the Anmor army to not respond to its southward movement. After all, he broke into the hinterland of Ankewei, intending to attack the rear of the Anmore army, echoing with Ankewei City. If it really takes this step, the strength of the Anmor army will be seriously affected, which is absolutely intolerable. Therefore, the enemy army must do everything possible to slow down the movements of the Orumi Federation army, so as to prevent the Buy yourself time to save the crisis.

In the face of a small number of Anmor troops, Claude was relieved, which showed that the Anmor troops did not have too many ambush, and even dared not fight head-to-head with the Orumi Federal Army.

On the land of Devil Canyon, the Anmor army of six or seven hundred people and the mercenaries with a smaller number, if they fight head-to-head with the Orumi Federation army, it is not enough for the Orumi Federation army to plug their teeth. It seems that the commander of this small-scale Anmor army also deeply knows this, and always maintains a certain distance from the Orumi Federal Army and does not dare to contact directly.

The gunfire continued, although it was messy, it never subsided.

"These nasty guys." Claude said impatiently.
