Chapter 1754 Only by putting oneself in a desperate situation can one survive.
The appearance of the anti-tank missile positions successfully put the Orc armored troops in a desperate situation.
Orc armored soldiers attempted to evade anti-tank missile attacks by using tricky angles.
But as the saying goes, the devil is always one step ahead of the saint.
They hadn't expected the paratroopers to send out squad members for anti-ship operations.
Moreover, they did not expect that their own armored vehicles could overturn.
After the overturned BMP armored vehicle was destroyed by a single Red Arrow 8 shot, many disagreements arose within the Orcs.
Some people believe they should abandon this direction and launch an attack from another direction.
But at this moment, the commander overruled all objections.
"Now that we've breached the southwest wall, we must keep fighting. The nearest hangar is less than 200 meters away, so our soldiers can rush there at full speed!"
The situation has come to this point, the arrow is on the bowstring, and there's no turning back. Order the mortars to fire smoke, creating a smoke zone so the infantry can advance quickly!
The commanders were initially reluctant to let the mortars be used because they feared that the mortars would be crushed by the National Army.
These orc rebels have armored units and even a number of heavy machine guns, but they lack heavy artillery.
The total number of mortars was not small, but when distributed to the soldiers under their command, it was still insufficient.
Therefore, many commanders value mortars and artillery more than their own lives, and they will not use them unless absolutely necessary.
But in this situation, if he doesn't take out the cannon soon, all his men will die here.
Following orders from their commander, the mortar units launched smoke grenades onto the runway on the southwest side of the airport.
The thick smoke obscured the paratroopers' vision.
The airborne commander immediately ordered the grenadiers to unleash full firepower, regardless of ammunition consumption.
The grenadiers opened fire wildly, attempting to suppress the rapidly advancing orc army.
The orcs, on the other hand, showed great resilience.
For some unknown reason, they charged forward like mad dogs.
Despite the threat of grenades, they charged fearlessly toward the hangar.
The paratrooper commander glanced nervously at his watch as the orc army surged forward like a tidal wave, then spoke.
"One more minute!"
Upon seeing this, the adjutant naturally realized what the commander meant by "one minute."
"All riflemen, move up immediately! Shoot down any orcs that rush out of the smoke! Don't let the orcs take over any of the hangars!"
The adjutant's orders pushed the paratroopers to their limits.
They had to abandon their advantageous firing position and advance forward to keep the orcs outside the hangar.
The machine gunner had been completely burned out.
The machine gunner's feet were covered with spent shell casings.
Two eggshells even fell into the assistant gunner's clothes, and the assistant gunner endured the burns and continued to serve the machine gunner.
More than 10 machine gunners effectively sealed off the entire area.
However, due to the smoke cover, the machine gunners' visibility was limited, allowing many orcs to break through the blockade line.
The rifleman roared as he watched the orc soldiers charge out, and raised his AK-12 to meet them.
The two sides engaged in a close-range firefight.
Due to the close-range firefight, casualties on both sides rose sharply.
Many of the paratroopers were hit by bullets.
But the heavy body armor saved their lives.
The orcs on the other side weren't so lucky.
They not only lacked bulletproof vests, but some soldiers were even shirtless.
5.45 is the most harmful to the human body.
For an orc, being shot once is basically a death sentence.
Although the paratroopers were protected by bulletproof vests, they still suffered casualties when faced with the overwhelming tide of orc soldiers.
Casualties on both sides rose sharply, with an average of four orc soldiers taking down one paratrooper.
The airborne commander saw this and was very anxious.
Four visible anti-tank teams, plus two more hidden anti-tank teams, unleashed their full firepower.
Several logistics teams also took out new Red Arrow 8 missiles from the warehouse and began installation.
At this point, nothing else matters; firepower is king!
At the entrance of hangar number 8.
This is the closest hangar to the southwest wall, and it's also the front line of the orcs' struggle.
The paratroopers mounted their machine guns on the top of the hangar, firing down on the charging orcs from their elevated position.
Riflemen formed a perimeter around the hangar for defense.
Because the paratroopers landed rather hastily, and because they hadn't had time to repair the fortifications after taking control of the airport, the perimeter of hangar number 8 was very rudimentary.
Let alone military bunkers, even a garbage dump would be a blessing for paratroopers.
Pekrich, a rifleman defending the terminal, has now been reassigned to defend Hangar 8.
Pekrich ran out of ammunition at the terminal, made a quick replenishment, and immediately rejoined the battle.
Seeing the orc soldiers charging towards him, Pekrich aimed and fired like a machine.
I don't know how many bullets were fired.
Even after Pekrich loaded the last magazine, the orcs continued to charge at him relentlessly.
Pekrich had no time to think and continued firing.
"Bang bang bang!"
Bullets flew toward the orc soldiers.
The paratroopers were very accurate marksmen, and their bullets hit the orcs precisely.
But these orcs were incredibly tenacious.
Some orcs were simply put to sleep, while others, after being hit, unleashed even greater power.
They charged forward like mad dogs.
For an orc driven to madness like this, at least six or seven more shots are needed to bring him down.
Perikrich fought desperately to fend off the orcs' attack.
But before he could fire a few shots, the gun jammed.
Pekrich was dumbfounded when he saw the jammed rifle in his hand.
Without any hesitation, Pekrich immediately drew his pistol and fired.
When his comrades saw that Pekrich's weapon was malfunctioning, they immediately told him to go down and get a new one.
However, just as Pekrich killed an orc and was preparing to retreat to change weapons, the orc seized the opportunity and charged up from Pekrich's position.
His comrades around him were shocked.
One of the paratroopers, no longer caring about anything else, pulled out a grenade, pulled the pin, and threw it over.
If the orcs charge in, they'll all die.
However, throwing a grenade could also injure comrades.
But we can't worry about that now.
Only by putting yourself in a desperate situation can you survive!
"boom!"
The shockwave from the offensive grenade instantly forced the orcs back, but it also blasted Pekrich away.
The paratroopers who threw grenades weren't stupid.
He couldn't possibly throw a defensive grenade.
Otherwise, shrapnel alone would have caused the deaths of several paratroopers in combat.
A grenade stopped the orcs' attack.
The remaining paratroopers struggled to their feet to prepare to finish off the enemy.
But the orcs on the other side were even more frenzied, opening fire to suppress the charging orcs.
The orc caught in the middle was killed by his own comrades, while the paratrooper was pinned down by bullets and couldn't lift his head.
The paratroopers' grenadiers fired six grenades at once, which landed on the path of the orc charge, turning countless orcs into a bloody mist.
But the orcs did not back down at all; on the contrary, they went completely mad.
Both sides were completely enraged.
Looking at the ever-growing number of orcs, I felt utterly exhausted.
Is it really impossible for them to hold out?
Just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the sky.
The next second, a large number of fireworks exploded amidst the orc army.
