Seeing that the tank regiment was about to approach the valley on the south side of Highland 244, the commander of the armored regiment was worried that the tank regiment would discover the position of their tanks and leak the information on the radio.
He hurriedly signaled to the staff officer beside him.
After receiving the signal, the staff officer picked up the radio and shouted, "Tank regiment, tank regiment, after you enter the valley on the south side of Highland 244, you must pass through at full speed. Try to pull away from the pursuers as much as possible. After passing through the valley, there is an open area. I repeat, you must pass through at full speed to buy more time for the rest of the journey. "
When the staff officer shouted into the radio, the tanks in the vanguard of the tank regiment had already entered the valley on the south side of Highland 244. When the tank soldier in the vanguard saw that there were tanks from the red team on both sides of the road, he was shocked.
Just as he was about to pick up the radio to inform the command vehicle behind, he heard the voice of the battalion commander from the back of the vehicle. "All teams, all teams, follow the instructions of your brothers and advance at full speed. Try to pull away from the pursuers as much as possible."
Under normal circumstances, whether it was during peacetime or wartime, during regimental operations, as long as the commander did not transfer the command authority for various reasons, the battalion commander could only lead his own troops to execute the order after the regimental commander issued the order.
Therefore, in the current tank regiment, before the commander's command vehicle had even issued the order, a battalion commander had already jumped out and issued the order to "all teams". This was very abnormal. It also violated the command principles of the troops.
Fortunately, the tank regiment's commander was very calm. When he realized that his battalion commander had suddenly issued the order, the first thing that came to his mind was not to blame, but to understand that there must be a reason for his battalion commander to do so.
After all, the battalion commander who issued the order was already his old subordinate. He knew that the other party was not an unruly person who did not know the rules, and it was even more impossible for him to do something that would harm the troops.
Therefore, after his battalion commander issued the order, the tank regiment's commander only paused for a moment before picking up the radio. "All vehicles, pay attention to the formation. Advance at full speed and pull away from the pursuers behind."
The reason why the tank regiment's commander repeated the order was because he was worried that there would be teams from other battalions in the breakout team. After hearing that the previous order was not issued by the regiment commander, they would raise objections and delay the execution of the order.
As expected, after hearing the same order from the commander on the radio, the tank regiment's breakout team's speed increased again. Full speed ahead towards the valley south of Highland 244.
Qu Sen, who was hiding behind a bush on the southern slope of Highland 244, watched as the remnants of his own tank regiment came closer and closer to him. His heart began to thump uncontrollably. This was not caused by nervousness or fear, but by excitement.
He knew that the Blue Team's pursuers were not far behind their tanks, and he couldn't help but imagine the spectacular scene of tanks, anti-aircraft missiles, and rockets suddenly opening fire on the Blues' pursuers below in a few minutes.
"Get ready to reload." Just as he was feeling excited, Qu Sen heard Hao Pingan's order.
"Yes!" Qu Sen responded in a low voice. He opened the lid of the ammunition box beside him with both hands, carefully took out a rocket, and began to remove the safety.
At the same time, the commander of the Blue Team's pursuit force behind the Red Team's tanks learned from the report of the listening group that the remnants of the tank regiment in front had received the order. He sneered, "Order the troops to move forward at full speed, and keep a close eye on the tanks in front. Also, the road in the valley south of Highland 244 is too narrow. Tell the vanguard to stop attacking temporarily to prevent the destroyed tanks from affecting the passage of the troops. "
Watching the military affairs staff officer beside him pass down the order, the commander of the Blue Team's pursuit force looked at Highland 244, which was already close at hand, through the armored vehicle's observation window, and said bitterly, "You want to pull away? In your dreams!"
The order was quickly conveyed to every unit of the Blue Team's pursuit force through the vehicle's ultra-short wave communicator. The drivers who received the order slammed on the accelerator and increased the speed of the vehicle again.
More than 30 tanks and supply vehicles of the Red Team's tank regiment entered the valley south of Highland 244 one after another. All the officers and soldiers who entered the valley immediately discovered that there were more than a dozen of their own tanks in the valley, and a little later, they saw assault vehicles and armored vehicles hidden on both sides of the road.
Seeing this situation, basically everyone realized that the previous order was most likely a smokescreen. When they thought about how their group was being chased by those bastards all the way, they couldn't wait to immediately turn around and join in to vent the anger in their hearts.
However, although everyone had this thought, they couldn't really carry it out. Firstly, there was no order. Secondly, if they stopped now, their brothers behind them would be blocked outside the valley. Therefore, the tank drivers could only suppress the impulse in their hearts and step on the accelerator to continue forward.
Unlike their comrades who had already entered the valley, the tank units behind them who hadn't yet entered were now puzzled.
Although the pursuers behind them were still biting their butts, and even tighter, the attack had stopped.
"Commander, did those bastards behind us run out of armor-piercing bullets?" In vehicle 057 at the very back of the tank regiment's remnants, the observer looked at the Blue Team's pursuers less than 30 meters behind them and asked in puzzlement.
The tank's commander was also puzzled when he heard the observer say, "No, the Blues aren't stupid. If the tank in front doesn't have enough ammunition, the tank behind will definitely make up for it in time."
"Why don't we turn around and fire at them?" The observer asked with a look of anticipation.
They were chased like stray dogs all the way, and as the tanks behind them were shot down one by one by the Blues, their team was now at the very back of the team. Instead of being killed by the opponent's anti-armor missile, it was better to turn around and fight. Even if there were no results, they could slightly delay the pursuers' speed and buy a little more time for their brothers in front.
The people in the vehicle didn't know that at this time, on the hillside to their right, Qu Sen had finished reloading. After patting Hao Pingan's helmet, he hid his body again.
And the "60 Rounds" in Hao Pingan's hand was steadily aimed at a Blues assault vehicle below.
"Vehicle 57 reporting, Vehicle 57 reporting, the Blues behind us are too tight. My vehicle requests to cut off the rear to contain them. I repeat, Vehicle 57 reporting, Vehicle 57 reporting, the Blues behind us are too tight. My vehicle requests to cut off the rear to contain them. " The commander of vehicle 057 at the very back of the Red Team's tank regiment couldn't stand it anymore and sent a request to the command vehicle.
Two seconds later, the commander's voice came from the radio. "Request denied, request denied. Vehicle 57, follow at full speed. You are not allowed to continue fighting."
