Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat - Chapter 397

Chapter 397 Falsely reporting military information

Commander Milosh Chuatoko, who led two battalions of government soldiers, was stunned when he received Bassam’s telegram. He didn’t expect that the main force of the rebel army was the one who attacked Bassam’s first battalion.

At this time, he didn’t have time to think too much. Since the enemy’s main force had been entangled by the first battalion, it was obviously impossible to escape in a short time. He didn’t want to let go of this opportunity to destroy the enemy’s main force.

So, he directly ordered the two battalions to divide into two groups, the second battalion followed him to rescue the first battalion, and the third battalion was responsible for launching an attack on Manguari Town according to the original plan.

Soon, under the personal leadership of Milosh Chuatoko, the second battalion quickly landed on the tidal flat closest to the first battalion, and directly approached the first battalion’s camp to encircle it.

As time passed, when they approached the battlefield, the sky had already turned pale. Unfortunately, the Amazon jungle was still dimly lit and visibility was very low.

Fortunately, the fierce gunfire near the battlefield can point out the direction for reinforcements.

When Commander Milosh Chuatoko arrived near the battlefield, he felt something was wrong.

Because Bassam told him that this is the main force of the enemy, with as many as a thousand people, but what he saw now obviously does not match the information!

Although the enemy attacked the camp of the first battalion from all directions, there was only one real main direction of attack, and the other directions were completely feints to attract attention, and the main direction of attack, if Milosh Chuatoko expected it to be correct , There is only about one company of troops.

Although they have already entered the camp of the first battalion, the rebels, who obviously do not have an advantage in strength, have been stopped by the first battalion behind the second line of defense.

But at this time, he has already led the reinforcements to arrive, and it is impossible to change the direction of attack now.

He could only bite the bullet and order all the soldiers of the second battalion to attack directly to the enemy’s rear.

The rebel army, which had been blocked from attacking, panicked in the face of the sudden attack. These veterans immediately began to break out without hesitation when they realized that the situation was wrong.

It’s a pity that the rebels who have been fighting for more than two hours are already damaged, but the second battalion that is now surrounded is a new force, and the strength of the second battalion has more than three times the advantage.

Where can the rebels escape easily.

However, the rebels were also some ruthless characters. Seeing that they were about to be completely surrounded, they immediately took out the grenades regardless, concentrated their strength and threw a rain of grenades at the already exhausted camp.

The first battalion of soldiers who were excited to see the arrival of the reinforcements, never thought that the rebels would put the breakthrough direction on their side.

Being caught off guard by this sudden attack, before the soldiers could react, these rebels took up weapons and launched a desperate charge towards the first battalion that had just been baptized by grenades.

This desperate way of fighting directly broke through the line that the first battalion had managed to maintain, and the rebels rushed straight ahead regardless of the situation.

In just a few minutes, the warring parties paid dozens of casualties.

Bassam was still excited when he saw the reinforcements arriving, but it suddenly became ugly. He knew that if this group of enemies escaped easily at this time, it would definitely not be a good end for him.

So, he didn’t have time to think too much, raised the pistol in his hand and took the few remaining guards with him, and greeted the rebels who were rushing towards them.

The two sides began to shoot each other from a distance. Under the bright sky just now, Bassam with a short gun in his hand was very conspicuous.

This allowed the rebels who were eager to break out to seize the opportunity, and shot at him.

Bassam, who was finally forced to be brave, felt his body shake before he had time to react. He looked down and saw several blood holes on his body, and then all the strength in his body began to disappear, making him limp immediately. Fell in the muddy camp.

Seeing this situation, the surrounding guards also shot at the rebels rushing in regardless.

The two groups of people fired nearly a hundred rounds of bullets at each other in just two minutes, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

When the rebels broke through a camp and rushed into the opposite jungle, there were less than ten people left.

The second battalion in the rear followed closely behind these rebels, and had to choose to give up after chasing less than 500 meters in the jungle. Because these rebels are obviously more familiar with the jungle environment than they are.

The rebels who entered the jungle took advantage of the small number of people and disappeared into the dense jungle like monkeys.

With the breakout of the rebels who were finally able to act, the entire camp of the First Battalion finally returned to calm.

Accompanied by soldiers, Commander Milosh Chuatoko walked into the camp that had been pierced by the enemy, which made his face very ugly.

Because, as far as he saw, the enemy attacking here was not the main force of the rebel army at all, and the number of them was even less than the thousand or so people that Bassam said.

“Tell your battalion commander to come and see me!”

Milosh Chuatoko held a soldier from the first battalion with a cold tone.

When the soldier heard the words, he looked at his regiment leader with some hesitation, and hesitated to speak.

Milosh Chuatoko’s face became even more gloomy when he saw this.

“Speak if you have something to say, and fart if you have something to say!”

The soldiers did not dare to hide it when they saw this, and pointed in the direction of the battalion headquarters with their fingers:

“I heard from my brothers that when the rebels broke out just now, they encountered the battalion commander. There was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, and the battalion commander died in the line of duty.”

Hearing this, Commander Milosh Chuatoko couldn’t help being taken aback. He looked in the direction the other party was pointing, and indeed saw a group of people surrounding him.

This made his face even harder to look.

I have a total of three battalions under my command. According to the current situation, the first battalion is about to be disabled. If the battalion commander dies in battle, it will be a huge loss.

Ignoring the soldier, Commander Milosh Chuatoko quickly walked towards the crowd. Sure enough, he saw Bassam lying on his back on the muddy ground, and the medical soldiers beside him had given up on the rescue.

Obviously, it is really dead.

This made Commander Milosh Chuatoko want to get angry and had nowhere to go. He could only glance at the crowd and saw that there were two company commanders in the first battalion.

The two of them had already seen their leader, and hurriedly stood at attention to salute, and everyone around them hurriedly followed to salute.

At this time, Captain Milosh Chuatoko obviously didn’t care about these empty etiquette, he waved his hands indifferently and said:

“What are you still doing around here? Since Battalion Commander Bassam has already died for the country, quickly gather his body away.

You officers above the platoon level of the first battalion, gather with me at your battalion headquarters, and give me a detailed description of the situation you encountered. ”

When everyone heard the words, they immediately stood at attention and saluted, and they responded in unison!

Then those with duties followed behind the regiment leader and entered the battalion commander’s camp, while the soldiers on the scene had already begun to collect the body of their own battalion commander.

The purpose of Captain Milosh Chuatoko to gather everyone together is of course to understand the real situation they have experienced.

After all, what he sees now is quite different from what Bassam reported in the telegram back then.

Soon, after the narration of these front-line officers, Commander Milosh Chuatoko also understood the actual situation at that time, and the situation he saw was obviously consistent with the actual situation.

That shows that the content of the telegram sent by Bassam is seriously exaggerated.

Responsible, Captain Milosh Chuatoko rushed out of the tent immediately and turned his gaze to the direction of Manguari.

As if to confirm his conjecture, just as he looked in the direction of Manguari Town, there was an earth-shattering explosion in the town, and he, who was five kilometers away from the town, could clearly feel the huge impact.

This situation changed his face greatly, and he knew that the third battalion attacking Manguari Town must have encountered an ambush.

With a livid face, he didn’t have time to blame the dead Bassam, and shouted at the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield:

“Everyone assemble! Hurry up!”

The soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield in the camp were also shuddered by the sudden explosion, and their eyes could not help but look in the direction of the explosion.

It wasn’t until they heard the roar of their leader that they reacted. They dropped their work and began to assemble according to the order of the leader.

Just as Milosh Chuatoko finished speaking, continuous gunshots sounded from the direction of Manguari Town, and everyone understood what this meant.

Everyone began to seize the time to organize their equipment and move closer to their chief.

Under the constant urging of Commander Milosh Chuatoko, the remnants of the Second Battalion and the First Battalion, which had just experienced a battle, assembled again and began to move towards the direction of Manguari Town.

But the enemy obviously didn’t intend to make it easy for them, and there would be a few gunshots from time to time in the jungle on the way forward.

As long as the gunshots sound, everyone will instinctively start looking for cover to hide, and then commanders at all levels will send soldiers to launch counterattacks against the enemies who attacked them.

But the enemy did not stay in place at all. After the soldiers rushed into the jungle, they often found that there was no enemy at all.

After doing this twice, Captain Milosh Chuatoko also realized that this was not an attack on himself at all. These gunmen in the jungle were actually harassing himself to slow down the speed of his reinforcements in Manguari .

Give the rebels on the Manguari battlefield more time to destroy their own third battalion.

“Order the second battalion to send a company forward to scout the jungle on both sides of the road and wipe out the scattered enemies who harassed the large army. The rest, ignore the harassment, and the whole army goes straight to Manguari and reinforces the third battalion.”

Commander Milosh Chuatoko issued a new order without hesitation.

The messenger heard the words, and quickly stood at attention and saluted.

“Yes, sir!”

Then he went straight to convey the order without stopping.

With a company searching for the enemy on both sides of the direction in which the large troops were advancing, the troops completely ignored the bullets fired from the jungle on both sides, and their forward speed was significantly accelerated.

Just when Captain Milosh Chuatoko thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, two violent explosions came from ahead, and the whole team had to stop again.

“what happened?”

Milosh Chuatoko was uneasy for a while, and soon the news from the front confirmed his conjecture.

“Commander, the road ahead was planted with landmines by the enemy, and we lost three brothers. Now we are organizing manpower to clear the mines, and the forward speed is limited!”

Hearing this, Milosh Chuatoko couldn’t help but cursed:

“Bastards, these **** rebels. How long do you expect to take to clear the mines?”

The officer who came to report heard the words, looked at Commander Milosh Chuatoko with a face of embarrassment, and said with some hesitation:

“Commander, now we can’t determine how big a minefield the enemy has set up in front, so we can’t give an accurate time either!”

Commander Milosh Chuatoko was anxious like an ant on a hot pot at the moment. He knew very well that if the rebels set up an ambush in the town of Manguari and wiped out his third battalion, his strength would be greatly reduced. It will be greatly damaged, and the logistics supply base is occupied by the enemy, and the weapons and ammunition in their hands have begun to run out.

If the third battalion besieged in Manguari cannot be rescued in time and taken back to the small town of Manguari, they may run out of ammunition and food and risk being eaten by the rebels. This is absolutely unacceptable to him.

This situation forced him to go crazy.

“Everyone bypasses the minefield from the jungle on both sides, don’t stay, I don’t believe that these **** rebels can bury the entire periphery of Manguari Town with explosives.”

Seeing the way his officer gritted his teeth, the officer did not hesitate, and stood at attention directly to salute.

“Yes, sir!”

then turned and left to convey the order.

Soon, the stagnant team started to move, and everyone left the already sparse road and walked into the dense jungle.

But the speed of advancement in the jungle was obviously limited. Although the team was moving slowly, the speed of advancement made Captain Milosh Chuatoko a little anxious.

Raising the binoculars in his hand, he looked at the town of Manguari, which was close at hand. Captain Milosh Chuatoko was very anxious.

Because, the gunfire from the town gradually became less dense, which gave him a very bad premonition.

As the sun slowly broke free from the shackles of the dark jungle, revealing a bright red head in the sky, the entire scene of Manguari Town slowly appeared in front of Commander Milosh Chuatoko.

Looking at the thick smoke floating above the streets in the middle of the town, and the increasingly sparse gunshots.

Milosh Chuatoko looked at the street corner of the town that was close at hand, but hesitated.

Although the naked eye did not see the enemy, nor found any ambush, but he gave him the illusion of a dragon’s lake and a tiger’s lair.

He glanced at the soldiers around him who finally broke through the enemy’s obstacles and arrived outside the small town of Manguari.

Finally gritted his teeth and ordered to the soldiers:

“The second battalion is attacking from the street, and the first battalion is responsible for covering the flank of the second battalion. Let us wipe out all the rebels in Manguali. Go forward!”

At this time, Captain Milosh Chuatoko has no other choice. After all, the third battalion is still resisting. The morale of the team may be lost.

At that time, there will be no need for the enemy to attack at all, and these soldiers may collapse directly. This is something he absolutely does not want to see.

Following his order, the various companies below started to act one after another. As the first battalion that had just fought with the rebels, it was only serving as a flank cover task, which was regarded as the care of the regiment leader.

Because, they are basically in the state of remnant soldiers now. Nearly one-third of the entire team died in battle. The battalion commander died in battle. After more than two hours of fighting, weapons and ammunition have begun to be in short supply.

If they are the main attackers, they may be discouraged halfway through the rush.
