Chapter 1068: Chapter 1,067. The losses were a little too great
Yu Tian had always felt that the scattered sand corps under Muhammad’s command were all cannon fodder, as well as the hundreds of old pirates under allab. They were all undisciplined armies.
An undisciplined army did not have any combat ability. However, this old pirate army of Allab did not seem as bad as he had imagined.
At least these old pirates had rich battle experience. Even if there was no one commanding them, they would still be able to make a suitable choice on the battlefield.
If this ability to escape was placed on offense, it might be able to give off the aura of a special forces squad.
Arab could not care about the carriages of soldiers that were left behind. He saw these soldiers running up the hill from afar and was slightly relieved.
He felt that these soldiers had a great chance of escaping, even better than his own convoy.
The convoy was still being beaten up, and the enemy machine guns were chasing after them.
There were even a few enemy military vehicles in front of them, as if they wanted to intercept the entire convoy.
However, the vehicles at the front of the convoy had already entered the road leading to the nameless village. The Death God mercenary group was set up on a hill near the intersection. If the enemy dared to approach the intersection.., the Death God mercenary group would definitely give them a head-on beating.
Before the enemy’s convoy could approach the intersection, a series of intense machine gunshots suddenly rang out in the convoy.
These machine gunshots were louder than the machine guns in the vehicles, and they seemed to be more powerful as well.
Abu seemed to have seen the flashes of fire from the bullets. Moreover, there were more than one machine gun firing in the convoy. Instead, there were a few machine guns that formed a crossfire.
The enemy’s military vehicles were originally arrogantly approaching the convoy, constantly using machine guns to harass the convoy and kill the personnel.
The convoy did not have enough strength to fight back, and Akka alone was almost unable to do anything to the enemy.
However, he did not expect that after chasing after the few troop carriers at the end of the convoy, the truck in front of them that was transporting supplies began to show its might.
Among the spoils of war this time, there were five heavy machine guns. These five guns were one size bigger than the machine guns on the truck. They were so big that it was impossible to install them on military vehicles.
The soldiers on the truck set up the heavy machine guns amid the bumps and finally began to fight back.
Apart from the heavy machine guns, there were also a few light machine guns.
However, there was no need to use these things. The main reason was that there was not enough space on the truck.
The five heavy machine guns were already powerful enough. After they were stabilized, they could basically function normally.
The bullets that were as big as a casserole were thrown at the enemy troops. Although many of the bullets were shot into the sky, there was still a careless enemy military vehicle that was hit by the Bullets.
The power of this type of heavy machine gun was obviously much greater. The enemy military vehicle suddenly felt that a part of it had shrunk. The machine gun rack and shooter on the vehicle suddenly disappeared.
Immediately after, the military vehicle overturned, because the driver also lost half of his brain.
This sudden situation gave the other enemies a fright. They hurriedly adjusted their direction and pulled the team further away from the convoy.
The morale of allab’s team was immediately boosted. Because the truck with the heavy machine gun had slowed down a little, the truck behind quickly followed and hid behind the heavy machine gun.
This time, the people in the convoy immediately relaxed a lot.
It was also a machine gun exchange, but the power of their machine guns was obviously much greater. Even the enemies did not dare to get close.
Allab heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that there would definitely be no problem in escaping back to the nameless village this time.
Sure enough, the following journey became much smoother.
The convoy slowed down a little, but under the protection of the five heavy machine guns, they did not have to get beaten up again.
Very quickly, the last few kilometers of the road were completed. The convoy smoothly entered the intersection leading to the nameless village.
The enemy did not dare to get too close. When they reached the intersection, they discovered the defensive position set up by the death god mercenary group, so they immediately did not dare to go in alone.
The convoy entered the nameless village. On the road, there were soldiers instructing them to continue retreating and not to stop at the nameless village.
Hence, allab did not stop and continued to lead the convoy to retreat.
After passing through the mountains, Allab finally arrived at the rear.
Seeing the layers of positions set up by Muhammad’s army, Allab was finally completely relieved.
Next, it was time to count the number of casualties.
Allab did a simple count and discovered that the chase just now had actually caused the convoy to lose over 200 people.
Those military vehicles were also battered and tattered. Some of them had barely driven back. If they did not want to be scrapped, they had to start repairing them as soon as possible.
This loss was a little too big. Out of the 200 people, half of them were Alabu’s subordinates, and the other half were people gathered from the scattered sand corps.
Alabu’s heart ached terribly.
Originally, it was just a simple mission to clean up the battlefield. He did not expect to be chased by the enemy and suffer such heavy losses.
Before Alabu had time to sigh, Yu Tian’s orders came down.
His convoy had to continue to return to khannima, bring back the wounded and supplies, and then rest.
As for the soldiers who fell behind, they would naturally have Mohammed ‘s scattered troops to support them.
The following battle did not require Alabu’s participation, but Alabu could not take it lying down.
He had a total of six guards. They had followed him for so many years and nothing had happened. He did not expect that one of them would be killed today.
There were also more than two hundred soldiers who had been shot to death. There were also more than a hundred old pirates who had followed him for many years.
With such a heavy loss, he felt that he had to stay and take revenge.
Hence, he immediately contacted Yu Tian to ask for battle.
Yu Tian was a little surprised, but he still agreed. He wanted to see if these old pirates could fight.
The number of soldiers that allab had brought out was not many. Right now, there were only more than a hundred people left in his direct army.
Yu Tian pondered for a moment, and directly placed these more than a hundred people into the scattered positions behind the mountainous terrain, to increase the firepower of those positions.
These arrangements weren’t something that could be done in a hurry, because at this time, the enemy still didn’t dare to attack the mountain pass where the death god mercenary group was stationed.
The enemies that were chasing after them were all fast troops, and in the wilderness like the Gobi Desert, they still had a slight advantage in terms of mobility.
But after entering the narrow terrain like the mountainous terrain, their speed couldn’t increase.
Without the advantage of speed, they could easily become targets and receive all kinds of attacks.
If they wanted to enter the mountains, the convoy would definitely not be able to. At the very least, they could not move alone.
There were clearly enemy positions on the mountains on both sides of the road. They had to first use the infantry to take down these positions so that they could continue to push deeper into the mountains..
