Just after a month of training, Habré couldn't wait to put these soldiers on the central contact line.
It is a desert belt about several kilometers wide, and to the north is an even more desolate desert. It may take dozens of kilometers to see some oases dotted in the yellow sand, and these oases are connected to form a green road through the desert. , and then reached the Auzou zone in the north, and after the Auzou zone was Gaddafi's Libya.
As the nominal leader of the Chadian government, Habré actually controls only two-thirds of the land, and the remaining one-third is Gucuni's area of activity.
Fortunately, due to the uneven geographical distribution, Gukuni's control area is not only sparsely populated, but also mostly a barren desert with not many resources.
On the contrary, it is Habré's territory. Although there are various problems, it is grassland, has water, arable land, and oil. Therefore, as long as Habré digests and integrates the territory, Gucuni has no chance to stand up!
Guchuni knew it, Gaddafi knew it, and Habré also knew it. However, the years of war between the two sides not only caused a heavy refugee problem, but also made France very dissatisfied with it. After all, Chad's oil originally belonged to France, but because These repeated civil wars gave the United States an excuse to get involved, and now, the oil well equipment built in Chad's oil fields are all American oil well equipment.
Not to mention the impact that a huge number of refugees have had on other countries. Chad is the crossroads of Africa. To put it bluntly, you can go anywhere. The problem is that it is almost surrounded by former French colonies, so refugees run around. The final problems caused will still affect France!
Therefore, France very much does not want the two sides to start a war again. The only ones who are eager to fight are Gaddafi and the Soviet Union.
But because Gaddafi himself was elected as the rotating chairman of the African Union, he was too embarrassed to break his face and resume the offensive. He could only let Gukuni's Vulcan Army continue to make small moves.
Just a few days after Habré transferred his men, Gucuni's men once again crossed the line of control and launched a sneak attack.
Soldiers of the Vulcan Army drove various vehicles from dozens of kilometers away and rushed through the ineffective defense line. Then they dropped their soldiers and opened fire on Habré's army camp.
Half of the Chadian soldiers stationed here at the moment had just graduated from the training camp. When the gunshots were fired, these people rushed out of the camp and occupied the surrounding commanding heights.
The Vulcan Army disagreed. After all, they had been fighting for so long, and they knew each other's strength well. With a distance of several hundred meters, even if everyone stood fighting for a day, they might not be able to kill or injure a few people.
But this time, the Vulcan Army realized how wrong they were!
At a distance of 300 meters, Habré's soldiers began to fire freely. These semi-automatic shooters fired slowly and took a look. After a few shots were corrected, an unlucky guy from the Vulcan Army was shot.
The commander of the Vulcan Army could only lament that he had such bad luck, and asked his men to push forward a little more. Anyway, they had more people than the other side.
Then, after advancing less than twenty meters, the commander realized that he seemed to be wrong, because those messy gunshots caused more than ten casualties to him, but on the contrary, he didn't seem to have killed anyone. an enemy.
"You losers, open fire, open fire!"
The commander was urging furiously from behind the dunes, but he didn't know that at the same time, a group of Chadian soldiers, led by the old noncommissioned officer, started a detour from the right side of the camp. These black uncles even carried an old soldier. The old British-made Vickers machine gun weighs dozens of kilograms and requires a whole team of people to serve it.
The black uncles disassembled the machine gun. Some were carrying the machine gun, some were carrying the tripod, and some were carrying ammunition chains and cooling water. Dozens of them ran all the way panting, and then circled to Gucuni's Vulcan Army. 's flanks.
The undulating sand dunes gave them good cover. Not only did the enemy not see them, they also couldn't see the enemy. They could only hear the crackling gunshots coming from the other end of the dunes.
In addition to Vickers machine guns, these Chadian soldiers also have French-made
The Shaterila light machine gun looks like a Czech machine gun, but it is a French product. France produced nearly 200,000 of these weapons during World War II. After the war, these weapons were naturally disposed of in Chad's hands. There are quite a few.
After circling a full kilometer or two in one go, the group of Chadian soldiers stopped.
Then, a little man carefully climbed up the sand dune to confirm the situation ahead. After finding that there was no one, he immediately waved to his companions.
Until these soldiers appeared nearly two hundred meters to the left of the Vulcan Army, the Vulcan Army did not notice them. Because the firepower from the camp and the commanding heights was quite precise, they did not dare to move forward. Everyone could only Stay where you are and exchange carbine with your opponent as a sign of friendship.
The shooting style of the black uncles has already become the style of later generations. They will rush to the top of the sand dune with their AK rifles, then shoot the bullets randomly, then slide down with rolling and climbing, change the ammunition, and then repeat it again.
Therefore, no one noticed that there was an enemy on their side. Upon seeing this, the Chadian soldiers immediately began to assemble the machine guns. Then, after the machine guns were assembled and the cooling water was connected, the shooters immediately looked at the crowd in front of them. The unsteady guy started shooting.
British-made .303 bullets and French 7.5mm bullets were fired at Uncle Black of the Vulcan Army, knocking down a dozen people immediately, and then the Vulcan Army discovered that there were people coming from the side, and then, These soldiers were like headless flies. Some stayed in place and opened fire, while others tried to find bunkers. Others did not notice the people coming from the side at all. They were still seriously exchanging fire with the Chadian army in front.
The Vickers shooter shot through a whole 250-round ammunition chain, and he killed about a dozen Vulcan soldiers. As for the companions next to him, they killed a dozen people in total. people.
In other words, the Vulcan Army had lost nearly thirty soldiers, while their opponents still suffered single-digit losses.
However, this exchange of advantages did not last, because when the Chadian soldiers who had not yet received training saw the enemy running away, many of them immediately left the bunker and chased after them. Then, they successfully broke through the number of casualties to two people. number!
