"I hate shelling!"
Seeing that half a jar of dust had accumulated in the cup, a P sighed helplessly.
The artillery fire from the Cuban artillery was like an overwhelming mountain, covering half of the town in an instant. The ground was shaking, and the earth was shaking. The Cubans seemed to be preparing to blow up the remaining town, so that their tanks would not have to struggle to climb the ruins. However, it was still a bit difficult to level the whole town with this little firepower. The Cuban artillery only destroyed a building belt of less than two hundred meters and drove out the soldiers stationed here.
Moreover, the ruins of the shelling also indirectly affected the tank's ability to move. I don't know how the armored commander would greet each other with the artillery commander.
However, after this round of shelling, the Cuban army stopped attacking. The motorized infantry company and reconnaissance company began to consolidate their existing positions. They seemed to be preparing to spend the night in the town.
The P's did not stop the counterattack anymore. Both sides consumed a lot of ammunition, and most importantly, it was dinner time!
"What's for dinner tonight?"
"Canned luncheon meat, compressed biscuits with strawberry jam, vegetable powder soup and instant lemon juice!"
"Well, that's right. I like lemon juice. Give me a big glass!"
Although it was a battlefield, there was a proper sense of ceremony. The adjutant lit candles in the basement headquarters and found a few clean wooden plates to make a small display for Hannibal. Hannibal was indeed hungry after a busy day, so he drank the compressed biscuits filled with strawberry jam, soup, and lemon juice in one gulp. As for the luncheon meat, Hannibal generously gave it to him. There are only a few FRELIMO officers left.
It was similar on the front line. The big-headed soldiers already hated canned luncheon meat. So, a few strong guys suddenly had a whim and threw the canned food into the Cuban position, which was probably just a street away from them. The Cuban soldiers thought they were enemies. He was throwing a grenade, and immediately a hungry tiger pounced on his food and fell to the ground.
Then they discovered that what the other party threw over them was sealed canned food.
The Cuban soldiers, who were not too concerned about the matter, immediately took the can and checked it carefully. Then, they were also tired of eating the canned corn sausage, so they directly opened the can thrown by the enemy and tasted the taste.
"It tastes terrible, but at least we don't have to eat corn sausage anymore!"
The Cuban soldiers who also suffered from sausages simply threw back the food they were tired of eating. However, the ps on the battlefield really appreciated this slightly sweet food. After dividing the things, they were still unsatisfied. The p immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Cuban idiot, do you still have this thing?"
"American bastard, daddy, I can't finish all the food. What's wrong?"
"Then can you share some with me? I'll trade beef lunch meat with you!"
p's sincere answer made the Cuban soldiers on the other side speechless. We are enemies. Are you really okay with being so greedy?
All the Cuban soldiers looked silently at the tank commander on the side. The latter's throat squirmed a few times before he said.
"I'm going to the headquarters and I'll be back in five minutes!"
Then as soon as the commander jumped off the tank with his front legs, the sound of crackling cans falling to the ground could not be heard. The P's did not expect their opponents to be so sincere, so they returned the cans they did not want to eat to their opponents.
The commander, who just went to a dark place to smoke a cigarette, returned to the tank and saw that four or five cans had been stacked on his tank.
While both sides were silently replenishing their strength, Hannibal dug out the buried playback equipment again, but because most of the discs had been smashed, only one Lily Marlene was left that could be played.
Immediately, melodious music floated above the ruins, and a gentle and smiling female voice slowly hummed in a slightly sad tone.
before the military camp
before the gate
There is a lamp
Still lit to this day
We'll meet again there
Just stand under that lamp
Just like before, Lily Marlene
"These Americans are so strange!"
Cuban finger
The commander, Colonel Diaz, snorted disdainfully while listening to the music, but his hands were not slack at all. It took him only a few seconds to open a can of meat, and then the colonel began to gobble it up.
He is really tired of eating corn sausage!
After dinner, there was still no fighting between the two sides, but the previous gentle atmosphere had disappeared. Both the Cubans and the Shadow Company were ready for battle.
But when the atmosphere was extremely depressing, the scouts deployed by Hannibal outside the city hurriedly brought good news.
The CIA has urgently mobilized a total of 600 mercenaries who are on their way here. They carry a large number of anti-tank weapons!
Hannibal hurriedly rushed out of the town to the high ground, and then he saw, in the sunset, a long line of motorcades appearing with bright lights.
"These guys came just in time!"
"Tell them to make the noise louder!"
Seeing that the reinforcements were approaching, Hannibal immediately strode down to the high ground to prepare for a good exchange with the reinforcements. He did not forget to ask his men to adjust the sound of the music to the maximum, which could more or less cover up the movement of the reinforcements. .
On the other side of the town, Colonel Diaz, who had set up his headquarters in the forest, also looked at the convoy coming from the south with a smile.
The arrivals are the special forces under the Cuban Ministry of Interior and the 500th Paratrooper Battalion that have completed the reorganization and replenishment. They will serve as supporting forces to help the armored forces complete the encirclement of the entire Caddo.
"Thanks to American music for this!"
"Comrade Colonel, Lili Marlene is actually a German song!"
The adjutant corrected carefully.
"No matter what song he sings, it's not as good as our military song, but I still have to thank them. With this music, they probably won't think that we will quietly increase our troops!"
"But they'll find out sooner or later!"
"Then destroy them before they find out!"
Colonel Diaz stretched his hand muscles and then said proudly. Chinese website
In Hannibal's headquarters, Charlie Martel, whom he had not seen for a long time, and Captain Juneau from South Africa gathered around Hannibal's headquarters to discuss how to make use of these new forces.
"I'm going to launch a surprise attack tonight! Use the advantage of night fighting to drive them out!"
Hannibal said firmly.
"Then we will choose to fight at night tonight. The enemy must be tired after a day of fierce fighting during the day. We have a night fighting scope given by the Soviet comrades. The advantage is ours!"
In Colonel Diaz's headquarters, the commanders of the special forces of the Ministry of the Interior are also confident. Their special forces have received a full set of Soviet training and Soviet equipment, coupled with strong combat effectiveness, they are enough to cause fatal damage to the enemy at night. Strike!
