The battle went well, but slowly.
Street battles that need houses to capture, and scuffles crowded with thousands of people, can't be fought soon.
However, the skeleton Gang still pushed slowly but irreversibly from the northeast of gaisalai. Some buildings need to be competed for several times. However, when the reserve team goes to battle, the number of people does not fall down locally, and even has an advantage, the place won by the skeleton Gang cannot be lost.
From the morning to noon, and then from noon to afternoon, the skeleton gang has occupied one-third of the urban area of gaisalai.
The Satan mercenary regiment did not take part in the battle in person, except that at the beginning, it personally participated in the laying of four reinforced, and the garrison was obviously not the fortifications of the pirates.
A team of ten people will not play a big role in the battle with thousands of people from both sides, and it is a battle fought one by one. Moreover, the main task of the Satan mercenary regiment is to command. If there is no need to fight, the Satan mercenary regiment does not need and will not fight in person.
A real street battle is synonymous with high casualty rate.
The reason why we should emphasize that it is a real street battle, because although it takes place in the city, the two sides can't see each other's shooting indiscriminately. It certainly can't be regarded as a street battle. To be exact, it can't even be regarded as a battle.
This time, the skeleton Gang encountered a real street battle, and a large number of casualties are inevitable.
The first company lost more than one-third of its combat personnel, the teaching company lost more than one-quarter of its combat personnel, and the second company lost more than half of its casualties.
Generally speaking, the morale of soldiers will be affected if the number of combat personnel is reduced by more than 10%. If the number of combat personnel is reduced by more than 20%, it can be called heavy casualties. If the number of combat personnel is reduced by 30%, the army must withdraw and rest. As long as it is not forced, it will not participate in the war again in a short time. As for the number of combat personnel reduced by more than half, The army is usually on the verge of collapse.
Fighting a war is not just a numerical problem. It is very difficult to maintain a good attitude and high morale when you see that your comrades in arms are injured or even dead.
The casualties of the second company were extremely heavy. The company commander was killed, one of the three platoon commanders was killed and one was seriously injured. Now only one platoon commander is left to direct the disabled army to continue fighting and always rush to the front line.
"The second platoon leader of the second company is dead! He is dead. Now I will command the second company. I am MOSAR and I am the Deputy platoon leader of the third platoon."
There was a hoarse voice in Gao Yang's earphone. The format of the report was not standardized, but it was good to be clear when the battle was over.
Hearing that the platoon leader of the second platoon of the second company was also killed, Gao Yang was dejected, and the last platoon leader of the second company was also dead.
"MOSAR, take your men out of the battle! The position of the second company of the fifth connecting hand!"
The second company couldn't fight any more. Gao Yang issued an order to let the second company retreat. The fifth company as a reserve team has been put into battle. Just take over the position of the second company.
"Report, we can still fight, we don't withdraw! Sir, we just don't withdraw! We either all die or fight until the end of the battle. Anyway, we won't retreat, never!"
MOSAR disobeyed. He yelled and expressed his determination on the walkie talkie.
Everyone could hear MOSAR's roar. At this time, no one made a sound. He held his eyebrows and clenched his teeth, but he didn't know what to say.
The second company disobeyed orders, which was never allowed to appear in the battlefield, but Gao Yang could not scold MOSAR, who now commanded the second company. On the contrary, he respected the second company.
It is rare in the world that the second company has the strength to fight to the death. Their combat effectiveness is not very strong, but this courage is admirable. From a worldwide perspective, the troops who have lost more than half of their combat personnel and still insist on fighting and refuse to withdraw from the battlefield, no matter how bad their equipment and training are, that is also the trump card, the trump card in the real sense, and the trump card that is not humiliating compared with anyone.
After a moment of silence, he sighed loudly and said in a deep voice, "MOSAR, you can continue to fight."
After that, there was a sentence that was held high and said in a deep voice again: "MOSAR, please convey my respect to all members of the second company for me. You are real warriors."
Li JinFang, sitting on one side with a gun, suddenly said, "the people in the second company are hard bones."
Gao Yang nodded and didn't say anything, but Li JinFang continued to whisper: "there is a soul in the second company. As long as they have one person left, the establishment of the second company can't be withdrawn. Even if there is only one person left, the soul of the second company can stay. Even if all recruits are added, the second company is still a hard bone. This is the soul, the soul of an army."
Li JinFang speaks Chinese, and only Chinese people understand the words. Even Irene, who is proficient in Chinese, may not know what "soul" means. But after Li JinFang finished speaking, grove, lying on one side, said: "the second company are heroes. Mentally, they are very strong."
Different national strength requires different requirements for a strong army, but the spirit of the strong is the same all over the world.
When fighting in Somalia, unless they are surrounded and can't run away, there are no troops who refuse to withdraw even if the combat personnel are reduced by more than 5%. It's really hard to say whether there are any troops who take the initiative to continue fighting when the combat personnel are reduced by more than 10%.
Africans are good at massacres, but war, to be exact, is a hard war. It really can't.
In addition to allowing the second company to shrink the front, narrow the attack area and let other troops take on more attack tasks, so that the casualties of the second company can be reduced, nothing else can be done.
He received MOSAR's report again when he was singing with emotion.
"Report, I'm MOSAR. The target of our attack surrendered. They're going to surrender. Someone said he was a pirate leader."
"Someone sent him to me. Hurry!"
Gao Yang was overjoyed. The war lasted so long and many prisoners were captured. There must be hundreds of people, but he couldn't ask anything. The captured prisoners didn't know anything except the orders they received. They couldn't get anything valuable, but there was a pirate leader, That's different.
Gao Yang thought that the surrender was the same as before, a small team of several or more than a dozen people, but he didn't expect that there were more than 300 people escorted down from the battlefield. This time, one of several pirate gangs in gaisalai City surrendered.
