    Even during the breaks in fighting, the soldiers on these positions did not get much rest.  Not only did they have to re-strengthen the fortifications, but they also had to relocate the heavy machine guns.

    Because the position of these heavy machine guns is very important on the position, they are deployed on favorable terrain high in the position, with a wider line of sight and can directly attack enemy positions.  However, they are often hit hard by the enemy. Taking advantage of the breaks in battles, relocating and deploying firepower points can effectively hide and protect these important firepower points.

    Several firepower points have been destroyed in this battle. What is worse than the machine gun being destroyed is that the machine gun shooter was killed.

    Usually these experienced machine gunners will choose to shoot on both sides of the charging soldiers. When shooting, they will not shoot in a wide range, but in bursts.  Conduct firepower strikes at the enemy's most prominent positions, rather than blindly shooting at the enemy.

    ¡° Moreover, heavy machine gunners must have very high shooting requirements and know how to make corrections based on the trajectory of tracer bullets.  Burst firing and short firing both test the machine gunner's shooting skills.  After the machine gunner is killed, he can only be replaced by a soldier serving as an assistant gunner.

    This makes Campbell, who originally had a small number of troops, somewhat stretched in the use of troops.  Not any ordinary infantryman can be directly qualified as a machine gunner.  Even if they have received some training in machine gun shooting, there will still be a significant gap compared with real professional machine gunners.

    And if this gap is reflected in the fire suppression of the enemy, the consequences can be imagined.  If machine gun fire cannot suppress the enemy, the enemy's charge will be unbridled.  That's why Campbell feels too much pressure.

    And Kasan did give him strong support. In addition to continuing to maintain the offensive on the flank of the enemy's main force, Kasan also specially allocated a part of his force to assist Campbell in holding the two surrounded enemy battalions tightly.

    A dozen combat trucks under Kasan honked and rushed to reinforce Campbell's second detachment.  The second detachment is now responsible for besieging the enemy forces in Orumi far away from Highland 9, which is currently the most critical position.

    Kasan must rely on this elite team to control the situation.  His unit is a mixed unit, but it has good combat literacy and good equipment. Whether it is artillery or individual equipment, it is much better than other units.  The firepower of the directly-affiliated howitzer company, combat defense artillery company, and communications company is stronger than that of an ordinary infantry battalion.

    The southwest direction is the main breakout direction for the trapped troops of the Orumi Federal Army.  The second battalion of the Orumi Federation's third division is launching a fierce attack on the Anmol army defending here.  As the infantry charge unfolded, the artillery bombardment became more intensive.

    At this time, as long as there is a little space in the southwest, the northwest front line is also in danger. The Anmol army there is being attacked by the third battalion of the third division. After losing several combat vehicles, the Orumi federal army continues to attack.  The offensive force on this line was increased, and the reinforcements also used artillery to cover their attack. The battle suddenly became more intense.

    Although Anmol¡¯s second detachment was still resisting heroically, it suffered heavy casualties.  At this time, except for one company in reserve, almost all the troops had joined the battle.  Due to the dangerous situation, the command post of the second detachment has deployed additional defensive artillery reinforcement positions, and finally stopped the enemy's attack and saved the position before Kasan's support troops arrived.

    Half an hour later, an infantry battalion under Kasan took over the southwest frontline defense.  Campbell's second detachment was ordered to move to the established position of the second line and take a short rest.

    After Kassan's troops entered the position, they immediately deployed defensive equipment on the front line. The second detachment was on the right, guarding the area between the two lines of positions. Highland No. 9 was further away, guarding the area between the highlands on both sides of the northeast.  The second team also has a reserve team, waiting between the two fronts.  Be ready to support positions in emergencies at any time.

    Kasan assigned his vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun company and mortar platoon to the battalion for direct control and mobile use.  Guard the area between Murono and Route 4.  A highly mobile infantry battalion was also prepared as a reserve unit, located behind the northwest side with the artillery unit, ready to maneuver.  Don't fight until the critical moment.

    The Orumi federal army, which intended to break through, was blocked by the Kasan troops who had transferred to the area.  They took advantage of the well-constructed positions and a large number of vehicle-mounted heavy weapons to use intensive firepower to shoot down from above.  This force of General Kasan is a new force that has just arrived and has strong combat effectiveness.  In addition, the Orumi federal army that broke through suffered heavy casualties due to its obvious target and inability to attack from above.

    "Then the Orumi federal army fired a lot of artillery shells to cover the breakout operation of its two battalions.  For a moment, the explosion was deafening and fireworks shot into the sky.  Despite the continuous artillery fire, the Anmol troops on the position still persisted in resisting. With the flanking support of the flanking troops, the Orumi federal army's attack still failed.

    Established in the third division headquarters in Murono town, comeReports from the front line continued one after another, and the busy officers moved in a hurry.  The staff are constantly marking the location of the Anmore troops on the operational map based on the latest reports.

    As the commander of the third division, Elijah was distraught. The reinforcements were unable to attack for a long time, and the two surrounded battalions were never able to break through the siege.  In a vague way, Elijah seemed to feel that the development of the battle situation was a bit strange. There must be something wrong, but he could not explain it clearly.

    Lin Rui and the mercenaries, who had been out of sight of the battlefield, had quietly moved to the flank of Murono Town, where the Murono Reservoir was located.  The entire team was as quiet as a rock, crouching in the trees on the roadside.

    In the darkness, two figures flashed past quickly and lay down in the nearby thatch.  At the same time, Lin Rui's communication headset sounded a rhythmic tapping sound, and Lin Rui put down his weapon.  He knew that it was Sausage and Sergey who were responsible for pathfinding and reconnaissance.

    Sausage and Sergey¡¯s faces were covered in gray. Before Lin Rui could speak, Sausage took the initiative to report.  "They are not very well defended in the direction of the reservoir. We have conducted reconnaissance and they probably only have less than one company of troops. And they look like a logistics force."

    Lin Rui was silent for a while and nodded, "It's possible. Most of their troops have been attracted by the battle ahead. It should be normal to ignore the defense here. Have you figured out the enemy's deployment and firepower configuration?"

    "I've written it all down. In fact, I think that if we touch it now, even if we alert their troops, we can still accomplish what I didn't do before their troops can react." Sausage nodded.

    "It's better to be careful as much as possible. If possible, try not to be exposed. Campbell and Kasan have helped us stabilize the situation in the front. It would be best if we could do it without anyone noticing. But if not,  , what I want is speed." Lin Rui lowered his voice and looked at each of the team members.

    "I understand, boss." The mercenaries all nodded to him.
