When the field guns fired, the PMCs on the high slope were already screaming and getting into their protective bunkers, and thanks to the countless heavy machinery of the BHP, the PMCs had no shortage of shelter.

It’s just that everyone curled up and waited for the shells to hit the ground, only to find that the opposing artillery had blown up more than a hundred meters, and not a single shell fell on the hillside, but all of them fell on the soil accumulated in the camp because of mining.

But no one is happy, this round of smashing the opponent will inevitably correct, for them who remain on the high slope to defend, the shells will only hit more and more accurately.

Soon several shells from the second round fell again, this time the opponent’s shelling, although still very off, but at least touched the edge of the defensive position.

Then came the third, fourth, and fifth rounds, and a dozen 75mm high-explosive shells fell one after another on the defensive positions, and before the smoke cleared, the mercenaries began to attack again, this time directly from the northwest and northeast directions, in addition to the black mercenaries at the beginning, there were more than forty French mercenaries.

Compared with the chaotic formation of black mercenaries, French mercenaries are quite methodical, they are fewer in number, the queue is more open, and the movement is not like Uncle Black’s hard charge, but constantly moving sideways, avoiding incoming fire as much as possible. The

PMC stationed on the high slope was two fire squads of the Apple detachment of the Shadow Company, numbering only about twenty people, although the shelling just now did not cause any effective damage to the team, but it destroyed the fortifications a lot, but when the mercenaries tried to sandwich the two bread, the commander on the position calmed down.

“Just point people like this, you rush me? Who to look down on? The commander did not care about the huge black mercenaries with nearly a hundred people, these

guys would not cross the line of four hundred meters, what he cared about was the French soldiers behind the other side, most of them were armed with FAL rifles and French-made MAT49 submachine guns, these mercenaries moved quickly, without any drag, in a few minutes, they approached the position of more than 400 meters without casualties, and at this time Uncle Black had begun to retreat, and nearly a hundred people rushed up, It receded again, leaving only the French still shooting at the PMCs. Because of the

blessing of accurate shooters, PMCs quickly gained the upper hand in the confrontation shooting, and several mercenaries who moved much slower because of the guns were hit by M14 and fell directly to the ground, and then the other mercenaries continued to attack as if they didn’t see it. At this moment, the French were close to three hundred meters away, and the

apple commander in the position ordered all the men to shoot freely, so the previous sparse gunfire instantly became dense, and then the accurate and deadly bullets instantly knocked down more than a dozen French mercenaries, which was not encountered by the black mercenaries before, seeing that there was no hope of a breakthrough, the French mercenaries could only helplessly withdraw back from the battle, and worst of all, because they were too close to the defensive position of the Shadow Company, they couldn’t even take away a few living wounded.

Although Hannibal is not a master tactician, he also has solid basic skills, this siege battle must be fought by the Shadow Company, so he did not send everyone at all, all the defensive areas were only half of the people, and the rest were waiting in the valley mines, ready to reinforce at any time.

And the team stationed on the defensive line did not disappoint him, with the advantage of equipment observation and terrain, not only the No. 1 high slope is as stable as Mount Tai, but even the No. 2 high slope on the south side of the river valley is the same, Ek’s mercenary men can not move forward at all when they are pressed by snipers under the hillside, several people were knocked off their brains, and they had no choice, this wave of attack can only be stopped again.

At this point, François understood that even if his men could rush forward, they would definitely be killed and wounded, and he had no choice but to adjust his tactics and send in the standby modified trucks and heavy firepower on hand.

Field guns continued to fire, there were not many shells, so this round of shelling still stopped after only about ten rounds, and two unlucky eggs of the apple detachment were hit by shrapnel, and the commander of the detachment could only quickly send someone to send the wounded off the position, and then let the reserve take turns.

When the shelling was over, three modified trucks appeared at the bottom of the hill, covered with steel plates with large-caliber machine guns mounted on the roof, and two modified convertible jeeps with mortars mounted on them.

After the support forces arrived, the mercenary commander immediately ordered another attack, this time the black mercenaries were directly kicked out of the battle as bystanders, the protagonist was more than a hundred French mercenaries, they also used a two-sided attack, but this time they had mortars and heavy machine guns as cover.

Hannibal also sent more men to the hillside and asked them to bring M72 bazookas, which is one of the few anti-armor methods of the Shadow Corporation.

As soon as the offensive whistle sounded, three trucks drove slowly up the hillside more than 40 meters apart, it is the dry season in Africa, and the land is much harder than the rainy season after exposure, so the trucks drive up the hillside without pressure.

These trucks even have steel plates hanging in the cab, and the driver can only confirm the direction with a small gap, so although the protection is tight, the speed is comparable to that of a snail, but the mercenaries are not in a hurry, they rely on the truck as a cover, just rub up little by little, and the snipers of the shadow company on the high ground can not do anything about this thing, can only shoot the steel plate of the cab to vent their dissatisfaction. Then, the

large-caliber machine gun with a bulletproof gun shield welded to the roof of the truck also began to fire, and the bullet instantly suppressed the snipers on the position and could not raise their heads.

And the jeep mortar under the hillside was not idle, the gunner always paid attention to the movement on the hillside, and saw that there was movement was a few shells, the suppression effect was even better than the field gun, a few shots down, those headaches of the shadow company immediately disappeared without a trace.

“Good, good, good!”

François, who personally supervised the battle, shouted three good words, at this moment his people had advanced to a position of three hundred meters under the cover of trucks, as long as they were advancing a little, as long as they could reach that place!

François’s hand holding the telescope had begun to turn white because of the excessive strength, he stared motionlessly at the front line, at this moment there was a loud gunshot, after entering two hundred meters, both sides gave up the idea of semi-automatic guns, all switched to fully automatic and began to shoot, trying to overwhelm the opponent with rapid automatic fire at this distance.

Seeing that the position of the Shadow Company was about to be taken, suddenly, François heard the sound of propellers.

“Helicopter!”
