I work as a mercenary in northern Myanmar.

Chapter 591 Reversal
Gunshots rang out from every corner of the community, once again entering a familiar rhythm. Although the SCAR-H in Chen Chen's hand was using single-shot mode, as he continued to pull the trigger, the gunshots had become completely continuous.

The 7.62mm bullets accurately hit every enemy who had his back to him. Within a distance of less than 50 meters, all the bullet hits were concentrated in the unprotected parts of the lower body.

Chen Chen did not deliberately pursue a one-shot kill, because he knew that with the equipment level of this decapitation team, even if the bullet hit the head, it would most likely be blocked by their composite helmets.

Instead of gambling on the probability of a few dozen square centimeters, it is better to just get a pedicure.

People are made of flesh and blood. There is no essential difference between breaking a leg and piercing the chest in weakening a person's fighting power.

In just a dozen seconds, the Dongfeng Corps' sneak attack caused more than ten casualties to the enemy. On average, every point exposed could result in a kill.

The efficiency was maximized and the progress was exactly as Chen Chen expected.

"Throw smoke bombs! Block the enemy's vision!"

"Use incendiary bombs to ignite the vegetation around the community to block high-altitude thermal imaging reconnaissance!"

Chen Chen moved to the second shooting position at high speed while constantly giving orders.

After his order was given, fires broke out all over the community instantly.

There was smoke, but it wasn't enough.

The area of ​​this community is too large, and the heat emitted by just a few incendiary bombs is not enough to effectively interfere with drones and helicopters in the sky.

After identifying the positions of the Dongfeng Corps members on the ground, the still hovering T-129 helicopter immediately launched a low-altitude raid.

The machine gun plowed the ground, and in the smoke and dust, the two team members who did not have time to evacuate were immediately submerged.

"We have to get rid of their helicopter!"

"Li Bang, establish contact with other troops in the city and transfer people over!"

"Already here! The nearest team will arrive in two minutes!"

Li Bang swung the wheel of the RPG-6 and quickly loaded the last six grenades into it.

Then he dodged and fell to the ground, pulling the trigger towards the faint flickering gunfire in the distance.

“Bang bang bang bang bang—”

Six grenades were fired in succession, and the enemy's firing point completely disappeared in the smoke and dust.

But then, bullets shot from another angle pushed Li Bang back into the bunker. Even though he kept retreating and hiding, the armor-piercing bullets that completely ignored the thin wall were still following him.

Without time to think, Chen Chen suddenly jumped out of the shelter.

The quick aiming function on the SCAR-H brought out its unparalleled superiority. Chen Chen quickly found the enemy's firing position along the angle of the bullet's incidence, then he turned the rate selector and pulled the trigger, and the remaining bullets in the magazine instantly poured out.

The low earth wall was penetrated by bullets, and the enemies behind the wall immediately fell silent.

"Withdraw! Withdraw!"

Chen Chen shouted.

Li Bang rolled back to the back of the bunker where Chen Chen was, and at the same time pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it in the opposite direction.

"puff--"

The smoke dispersed and the enemy bullets were attracted by the smoke, but Li Bang did not stop and moved to the third shooting position after shooting Chen Chen from behind.

At this time, most of the Dongfeng Corps members had already engaged the enemy. The pressure on Abbud and his personal soldiers was greatly reduced, and the heavy machine guns from the community center also sounded again.

The rhythmic sound of metal colliding resounded throughout the battlefield, but the direction it pointed to was not the ground, but a helicopter that was once again hovering in the air.

Fires flew everywhere, and the thin armor of the T-129 helicopter was torn apart by the 12.7mm large-caliber bullets. It must be said that its structural toughness and impact resistance are indeed not weak. After a volley of bullets swept past, the fuselage only shook slightly a few times.

But there are still people sitting in the cockpit.

Flesh and blood exploded in the cockpit, and the next second, the T-129 turned around and crashed!

"boom!"

The explosion sounded again, and the propeller that was blown away by the explosion whizzed over Chen Chen's head and crashed into the darkness not far ahead.

Faintly, Chen Chen saw a "half" object flying into the sky. It might be the body of an unlucky enemy that was cut off by the propeller.

"All the helicopters have fallen!"

"The Black Hawk is taking off!"

"I have two RPGs here, which one should I fight?"

Lin He's hurried voice came from the headset. After thinking for only a second, Chen Chen answered:

"Hit the people on the ground! Don't shoot the planes!"

Yes, at this point, it makes no sense to try to attack a helicopter that has already taken off with an RPG.

It only needs a light maneuver to avoid an attack from an unguided rocket.

Even if it hits by chance, one rocket is not enough to make a helicopter lose its combat capability.

Instead of doing this, it is better to use the best steel on the blade and have a sniper fight with the enemy forces in the "encirclement"!
"understand!"

Lin He answered immediately, and within the next few seconds, two rockets flew towards the bunker where the enemy's firepower was the most concentrated.

An explosion sounded, and a metal jet exploded on the wall, creating a bright flame like iron flowers.

The enemy's formation was shaken, and Chen Chen could clearly feel that after suffering a round of rapid casualties, their firepower efficiency began to decline.

The suppression on our side is weakening, our transfer and maneuvering are becoming easier, and we even have time to stop and observe the situation on the battlefield.

The Dongfeng Corps re-established OODA, and Yang Shu, who maintained utmost restraint, never opened fire or exposed his position, became their eyes.

"The enemy is gathering towards the east. They want to occupy the east building as a fire support point!"

"One group, go over there and intercept them!"

"The enemy is setting up machine gun positions at the pool house on the west side, blow them up with mortars!"

"I can't knock it down. The distance is too close!"

"Grenade! Grenade!"

"I come!"

Li Bang stood up suddenly and threw two grenades accurately.

One grenade exploded in the swimming pool, creating a huge splash, while the other exploded directly above the enemy's machine gun position.

The fragments swept across the entire area, and the shock wave directly pressed people to the ground.

The machine gun position fell silent before it could be deployed, and the enemy's defense line finally had the first gap under the double-sided attack.

"Go! Meet up with Abbud!"

"The other side definitely has no reliable means of identifying friend or foe!"

"Close range combat!"

"understand!"

At the command, all team members jumped out of the bunker and advanced towards the inside of the community in groups of two or three.

At this time, their battle with the enemy had reached a fever pitch, and it could even be said that it had reached a distance within which the bayonet could reach.
-
Of course, no one would actually use a bayonet in combat.

They just kept firing and moving forward, not seeking to kill anyone, but just desperately moving closer to the relatively solid bunker where Aboud was.

After more than ten seconds, and after losing two more team members, Chen Chen finally arrived beside Abud.

At this time, he was already seriously injured, with blood flowing from his shoulder, and his left leg had completely disappeared.

But on the contrary, his spirit was highly active and his eyes were not distracted at all.

"I have mobilized troops for support."

"I'll be there in 1 minute!"

"Hold on!" "Got it!"

As one of Issam's most experienced generals, Abd had obviously seen through the surface of the battle and reached its essence, just like Chen Chen.

There is no doubt that the team that launched the decapitation is the most elite team of the enemy in this battle of Azaz. They are very strong and very valuable!

If their operation does not go smoothly, the Turkish side will have to mobilize peripheral troops for rescue.

And whenever they launch a rescue, they must gather near the community.

This gave the Syrian defenders an opportunity, because in urban street fighting, the denser the troops are deployed, the greater the losses are likely to be!

Regardless of equipment, skills or tactics, the limited space will infinitely compress the strength gap between the two sides.

At this time, the remaining five enemy Black Hawks had all taken off, and the door machine guns were frantically firing at the bunker where everyone was. However, Abboud naturally had his considerations for choosing this place as the second hiding place. The "villa" with reinforced walls could not be called a villa at all, but more like a fortress.

All those large-caliber bullets were blocked outside the wall, and the helicopter, whose position was exposed, became a target for the few personal soldiers still active on the periphery.

They were unable to contend with the enemy's special forces, so they turned their attention to larger, seemingly easier-to-hit helicopters.

Rifles, light machine guns, bazookas, and even pistols.

The not-so-dense firepower network covered the sky in front of the villa, forcing the hovering helicopter to turn around and deal with these annoying "flies" first.

Chen Chen dragged Abbud a few steps deeper into the villa, while the other team members quickly occupied the shooting positions inside the building and began to exchange fire with the surrounding enemy forces.

The positions of the two sides were exchanged again, from encirclement to counter-encirclement, and then to being surrounded again. Although it seemed that the ending had returned to the original one, in fact, the situation of the battle had undergone a fundamental change.

The number of enemy ground infantry has dropped sharply from nearly 60 to less than 40, and is still decreasing.

Both of the enemy's armed helicopters have crashed, and their subsequent heavy firepower support must rely on armored forces that break through the street fighting line.

If you can hold on for a minute and your support arrives, victory will be close.

Chen Chen replaced the last magazine in his SCAR-H, as he was almost out of ammunition.

"If the enemy wants to use a bunker buster, how much time do we have?"

Li Bang on the side asked.

Chen Chen shook his head and answered decisively:
“Don’t even think about it.”

"Türkiye doesn't have bunker busters, so either it uses them from the beginning or it can't possibly use them."

"Hold on, support is coming soon--"

"boom!"

Before Chen Chen finished his words, a violent explosion sounded outside.

His heart suddenly contracted, but soon his expression turned into surprise.

"arrive!"

“Faster than we expected!”

"Not my people!"

Abboud struggled to sit up and reached for the radio.

Chen Chen did not stop him, but stood up and walked towards the window. He stood up a few meters away from the window and completed a quick observation.

The figure of an enemy flashed past the window, and his finger pulled the trigger unconsciously. The opponent's neck seemed to be broken and tilted to the side at a terrifying angle, and then fell down with a bang.

But at the same time, a grenade flew towards the window.

How do rifle grenades explode?
There is no point in overly complicated explanations. Chen Chen only remembered one sentence from beginning to end:

"It explodes upon impact."

And now, the grenade was flying towards his chest at a speed of 76 meters per second, leaving him less than half a second to react.

"Lie down!"

"boom!"

The explosion was deafening and Chen Chen's whole body was numb.

For a moment, he even thought he was doomed.

But in the silence of his eardrums after the explosion, he could feel every part of his body clearly and unmistakably.

Looking back again, smoke and dust were faintly visible at the window.

And under the window was the bloody body of one of Abbud's soldiers.

He blocked the window.

This incredible action is easily questioned by some people, but in fact, such cases are all too common in real high-intensity wars.

When there is no way to retreat, humans will make many fanatical sacrifices that are close to self-destruction.

And it is this kind of sacrifice that often determines the outcome of a battle.

Chen Chen raised his gun again and aimed at the enemy troops that appeared in the distance.

The trigger was pulled and the bullet flew out.

But, it was one second late.

A dust cloud appeared out of nowhere, and everything in the dust cloud turned to ashes.

Chen Chen, who had lost his hearing, seemed to be watching a silent movie.

Outside the window, countless shells are falling.

With the villa as the center, the ripples caused by the explosion blew all the sand, rocks, and vegetation into the air. The oppressive feeling of heavy firepower was pushed to the limit at this moment.

A Black Hawk tilted and fell toward the ground, and the flames from the exploding fuel tank cast long shadows on the people in the villa.

White phosphorus bombs delivered by large-caliber mortars landed farther away, and flashes of white light fell like a meteor shower.

No one could sustain the offensive momentum under such heavy firepower.

That’s right, using a cannon to kill a mosquito may not be that effective.

However, even the most elite soldiers would not gamble their lives at this time.

"Search for the enemy!"

"Fight it out!"

Chen Chen shouted orders, he couldn't hear his own voice, and probably no one else could hear it either.

But it was obvious that everyone saw his gesture.

After a very brief pause, everyone in the villa jumped out with amazing tacit understanding, reoccupied the wider platform outside, and regained the long-lost vision.

OODA's balance and stalemate were broken. Even though it was still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, the Dongfeng Corps had already taken the initiative.

And, something even worse happened for their enemies.

After a round of artillery fire, the scattered defenders in the city finally arrived and gathered again near the community, forming a force that could not be ignored.

Dense bullets flew towards the heads of enemies in the community. At this time, any form of identification of friend or foe became unnecessary.

Those closer to the center are friendly forces, and those closer to the periphery are enemies.

Facing you are friendly troops, and with your back to them are enemies.

why?
nonsense.

If the friendly forces were outside, wouldn't they have turned around and retreated long ago! ?

In an instant, the situation of encirclement and counter-encirclement was reversed again, and after this time, the encircled party might never have a chance to turn the tables again.
