"Forward! Davarisi!"
Accompanied by the roaring engine and the huge friction sound when the tracks rotated, the 32-ton body of the T3485 tank immediately and mercilessly ran over the still burning jeep. The flames licked the tank's armor, but only a few streaks were left. The black mark showed that the jeep was directly crushed into a discus.
Bright red blood seeped out from the parade and was immediately crushed into the soil by the tracks.
The retreat of the Cuban army was naturally not without purpose, because the armored troops were already on the road, and it was meaningless to use human lives to fight for the airport. After Major Garcia led his men to join the large army, he returned to the same route and killed them. .
This time, they not only brought more troops, but also a total of eighteen T3485 tanks, which was close to the number of two companies. In addition, there were more trucks, armored vehicles, and a considerable number of 76 Millimeter towed artillery, now, Major Garcia is not rushing into battle, but is prepared!
Although he was bruised and bruised by the airport defenders, Major Garcia regained his confidence as an elite force with the FRELIMO combat troops deployed around Luanda.
Although the FRELIMO troops began to build fortifications when they arrived at their respective defensive areas, the opponents they faced were Cuban paratroopers with armor bonuses. The FRELIMO commander deployed a platoon of soldiers at the highway checkpoint outside the city. In less than three minutes, they were all annihilated by Cuban paratroopers, and the jeeps and trucks they were traveling on were all turned into a ball of burning scrap metal.
The bodies of the killed ANLF soldiers lay scattered on the road and in the trenches on both sides, while a steady stream of MPLA soldiers followed the tanks marching in a column and began to march with their heads held high.
Although the T3485 tank can be regarded as an old and obsolete model, it still plays an important role as the spearhead of armor in those small countries, especially in places like Angola, where the T3485 tank can be called a giant.
There was no weapon in the hands of the ANLF soldiers that could penetrate the front of the tank, because the Americans did not issue anti-tank weapons to them at all. The ANLF soldiers could only shoot randomly at the front armor of the tank. Then, it was evaporated on the spot by the latter's 85mm artillery.
There were two battalions of Frelimo troops arriving in Luanda. One battalion took over the defense of the airport and the capital city, and the other battalion was responsible for the peripheral defense. The eliminated infantry platoon belonged to the 107th Infantry Battalion of this peripheral defense. .
After receiving the news of the enemy's attack, the commander of the 107th Infantry Battalion, full of enthusiasm and nowhere to release his blood, immediately ran to the front line in a jeep to command. For him, this battle was his first battle after becoming an official, and there was no room for failure!
Then, the battalion commander who arrived at the front line saw the tanks wreaking havoc on his own position. His infantry battalion was equipped with several old mortars, but these were good at hitting infantry. For tanks, , it’s a bit like a joke.
Driven by Cuban tank soldiers, those T3485 tanks seemed to be in no man's land, ruthlessly running through trenches and foxholes, and machine guns and main guns knocking down the helpless infantrymen to the ground like cutting wheat.
Encountering some guys who were hiding in the trench and unable to come out, the Cuban tank soldiers immediately controlled the tank to swing left and right in place, and then the soil squeezed out by the tracks buried these guys alive. Chinese website
In less than twenty minutes, another infantry company was destroyed by these tanks, and the unlucky battalion commander was blasted into the sky by a tank while driving away.
Subsequently, the ANLF troops who lost their command started to attack everywhere like headless flies. The survivors who had seen the power of tanks ran away while spreading panic. At first, the ANLF troops only sent a small group of tanks. , less than a moment later, the news became that the Soviets had sent an armored group army.
Of course, it was not just the ANLF soldiers who were panicking, but also the mercenaries and Ps at the airport, especially Shepard. He was now the first in line to board the plane, but everyone had no objections. After all, as the boss of a military contractor, Shepard has done enough!
"Agent Hudson, think of a way!"
"I'm communicating with the above!"
Hudson was also helpless. He didn't understand why the situation was like this. He didn't even know where those tanks came from. Satellite reconnaissance and intelligence didn't mention this at all.
"Then the airport is still guarding it!"
"You can hold it, there are tanks on the other side!"
"I seem to have heard the sound of tracks!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"That's an illusion, don't panic! The enemy is still a little far away from us!"
"When will the transport plane arrive?"
When everyone at the airport was anxious and worried, thinking that they would be blasted into the sky by Soviet tanks in the next second, good news finally came through.
After the MPLA troops defeated the Frelimo's defenses, they did not go straight to the airport. Instead, they first killed the capital, Luanda. Now those Soviet tanks are chasing down the Frelimo soldiers in the city on the streets!
"I feel relieved now!"
Shepard wiped the cold sweat off his head and let out a sigh of relief. The city of Luanda is quite large, and the MPLA troops would not be able to get out without a day or two of effort!
"But even so, you still have to take the first flight!"
"Of course, the best thing about me is that I never try to show off!"
Looking at the solemn looks of Hannibal and the commanders, Shepard nodded affirmatively and continued to line up in front of a group of wounded.
Then, Agent Hudson also received the latest notice from his superiors. The ANLF troops armed by the CIA have been in various situations in the past two days. No one can fight. It can be said that anyone who collapses when they meet is considered brave. , most of the troops only took a few shells before they began to disintegrate themselves, and then were chased by MPLA soldiers and slaughtered as pigs.
One-third of the territory controlled by the Anjie Liberation Front was lost in less than a day, and all the territory around Luanda has been lost. It can be said that now, there is no need to defend Luanda at all!
"retreat?"
"retreat!"
"Oh My God!"
Hudson gritted his teeth tightly, and the words he least wanted to say came out of his mouth.
"Well, I want to say something. With the situation at the airport, I'm afraid there won't be room for one plane!"
Shepard, who also heard the news of the retreat, pointed to the airport runway. At this moment, there were not only the hundreds of mercenaries gathered here, but also many ANLF troops and local collaborators of the CIA, and there was a steady stream of people. People are heading towards the airport!
A 130 transport plane can only cram a hundred people into it, and the airport now has almost over 800 people!
