Although most of the enemies had been eliminated after the airstrike, they didn't dare to let their guard down.
If they were careless, there was a chance that the remaining enemies would give them a fatal blow at the last moment.
The helicopter waved its propellers and cut the surrounding air, making a whirring sound. The airwaves made it difficult for the people around to open their eyes, so they had to cover their faces with their hands to prevent leaves and sand from flying into their eyes.
The helicopter parked in the air turned around and left the battlefield after dropping off the infantry. Their bodies were too big, and if they stayed too long, they might be shot down.
Although the Allied Forces suffered heavy losses in the airstrike, their resistance didn't stop. On the edge of the ruins of the ammunition depot, two French-made heavy machine guns, one on the left and one on the right, sprayed fire at the enemy.
The M60 machine guns of the Green Hats couldn't suppress the enemy. Instead, they couldn't even lift their heads. The speed of the US Army's attack was immediately suppressed. The helicopter fired dozens of rockets at this active point, but they couldn't kill the enemy.
The ammunition depot of the Allied Forces was built on the hillside. The angle was very steep. The bombs dropped from the helicopter didn't completely destroy the ammunition depot, but it collapsed. Most of the holes and inner walls were destroyed, leaving only a small part that could accommodate one person.
The soldiers guarding the ammunition depot used the small entrance and exit to build a small machine gun position using sandbags and stones and sand from the ruins. This ammunition depot was the highest point of the entire Allied Forces camp, and the hillside was in the middle of the camp. Usually, the vegetation was dense, so it wasn't easy to find under normal circumstances. However, in front of the Green Hats, these little tricks couldn't be hidden at all.
Under the precise guidance of the special forces, the ammunition depot was attacked, but the strong Allied Forces soldiers didn't lose heart. They used the fastest speed to build this machine gun position. Although this position was small, the firepower was fierce, and behind it was the ammunition depot, so they didn't have to worry about ammunition consumption. The Allied Forces soldiers tried to stop the US Army's attack, creating conditions for the friendly forces to retreat and counterattack. Their idea was good, but the reality was cruel.
When the US Army realized that their attack was blocked, they contacted Colonel Richard and sent a helicopter to attack the machine gun position, drawing the fire from the machine gun position to cover the sneak attack of the Green Hats. The helicopter kept firing rockets at the machine gun position. After that, it turned around and continued to fire with the machine gun on the helicopter. While shooting with the machine gun, it also fired 17 smoke grenades with the manual grenade launcher that it carried.
These smoke grenades fell around the machine gun position, forming a thick smoke screen. The appearance of this smoke screen created favorable conditions for the Green Hat assault force. The 6 Green Hats used the smoke screen to quickly approach the machine gun position. Four of them were rocket launchers and two were snipers. As the two snipers moved forward, they continuously removed the smoke grenades from their bodies. After biting off the safety, they threw the new smoke grenades around them to block the enemy's sight. (Because the grenade launcher's smoke grenade launcher would eventually run out, if they didn't do this, they would die when the smoke screen dissipated.) This was to protect themselves and their companions.
After the Allied Forces soldiers dodged the incoming rockets, they waited for the sound of the explosion to die down before they raised their heads and continued to fire. They didn't know when, but they found that a lot of smoke screen had appeared in their line of sight. No matter how they adjusted their machine guns, they couldn't see the enemy well.
