World in conflict ch 6 Ambush
Once Viktor got the vehicles he requested for, he somehow was able to get a southerner to go along with "us" to the Gold ring city.
And just as soon as Viktor got those vehicles (2 T-72s and 5 BMP-1s), next thing we new it we were being cramed into the BMP-1s.
First of all I will mention that BMP-1s are cramped. Yet can some how manage to fit up to 8 people in its 2 compartments. What makes it even more uncomfortable is the lack of leg room and space for your supplies (rpk/ak's a few rpgs and rounds to go with it along with the southerners rifle). What made this even worse was me and this other guy Oleg were put in the same compartment as Ruka and Akio the southerner. It wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't in the middle of the two sergals, so it got pretty darn stuffy with in the first few minutes of the trip. So I leaned over and opened up a few firing ports on the side to let in some air. But in the process knocked over a container of magzines causing a few bullets to fall out.
Akio picked up a few tracer bullets and the magazine and analyzed it intently...
Akio: strange... why would you need such weirdly tipped bullets?
Me: the ones you are holding are tracer rounds they basically show you where you are shooting. So you can adjust while in combat.
Akio: ok, but how much bullets does your gun have?
He said while pointing to the RPK.
Me: 45, how much does yours have?
Akio shuddering a bit in disbelief, replies and shows me his rifle. As it turns out his riffle is a 5 shot carbine with a bolt action firing mechanism.
Oleg (asking Akio) : Do you think your city is welcoming to outsiders like us? Or will they be agressive twoard us?
Akio (a bit taken back) : The city part is fine although it may take a while for our citizens to get used to seeing you people, but these machines might cause a few alarms and some interest, we are intelligent beings much like you but, ya know.... less advanced with technology for say... My country appriciates the flying attacks you people did but my race would greatly appreciate if you could give us some of this tech you possess... Or at least give us some help in developing this kind of tech.
Me: well once we get out of this thing you can talk to Viktor on that matter, im sure he will offer his help. Anyway the most I can do for you is this.
I pull out a spare makarov along with 2 spare clips from my pack and hand it to him. He grabs it and studies it for a while,
Me: you pull the trigger to fire and push here to reload.
I say this as he practices putting in and out the clip. He later puts it in his pack.
He later on tells me about this area called the salizane dessert and how its a area with alot of northern raiders and ambushes.
Ruka on the other hand fell asleep within the first 10 minutes of the ride, with his neck bent back a bit with the back of his head resting on the back side of the compartment allowing for his mouth to open up a bit exposing his teeth a bit, revealing bits of meat in between.
Me(asking akio): do have teeth like that?
Akio noticing some shock in my voice gives me a toothy grin...
Oleg(chuckles at how much smaller Akio teeth are in comparison to Ruka's): hahaha! I aint scared of you!
Akio turns to Oleg and scares him by snaping his jaws about a half a inch away from his face, then slowly backs away, then burst out laughing because Oleg's eyes were the size of dinner plates. I laughed a bit as well.
A few minutes passed, as I started to get bored and stared out the firing port and noticed a figure about 300 feet away watching us. I pass ot off as nothing, and slowly drift off into sleep.
And thats the last thing I remember when I wake up to the sound of a explosion.
BOOM!
A massive shock wave shakes our BMP-1 and Oleg grabs his gun along with a few other clips and dashes out pulling out Akio along with him in one arm yelling: Get to arms were under attack! I blitz out with my rpk, and soon joined by a few other soldiers, Akio and Oleg we run behind the left side of the BMP-1 for cover and start scanning the treeline for movement, for about a few seconds it was silent then the whole forest light up with gunfire. And we started to fire back.
With that said another huge round ricochets of a near by T-72 And lands behind our left side with a loud explosion. Immediately the tank starts opens fire upon hillside on the presumed enemy in the tree line along with the T-72s, to no avail. And a repeated barrage of HE rounds started coming toward us, from the radio comms guy you could hear:
Tank commander 1: DOES ANYONE HAVE EYES ON THAT AT?
Soon after another round grazes the side the same T-72.
Tank commander 1: ARE YOU OK?
Tank commander 2: Were fine its a ricochet!
Tank commander 1 : BULLSHIT THAT GROUND HIGH VELOCITY!
Tank commander 2: I got eyes on it its at a 10 O' clock!
Tank commander 1: ALRIGHT LETS TEACH THESE RATS HOW TO FIGHT! LOAD HE ROUND AND FIRE AT WILL!
Just like that both the tanks fired and a explosion sent some red sparks up in the air followed by a few explosions, meaning they hit the cannons.
Then green tracers erupt form the treeline hitting a few people who were unlucky enough to not find cover. As the guns blazed some of us took cover, the enemy took advantage of this and several sergals with rocket launchers charged out and fired their payload about 3 of them hit our BMP-1, destoying the turret along with the person inside of it, the rest hit the ground near our squadron killing a few people.
Both me and Oleg continue to fire upon the enemy, along with the rest that are still alive, as it turns out a few people were able to set up and started firing mortars amidst the chaos, while most majority of us used Rpgs and guns.
Viktor (to radio man): Tell That tank To shoot off its smoke grenades!
And with that said the tank fired the smoke grenades and clouded up the whole area and the enemy, who was probably confused stopped firing.
Viktor: Charge! KILL THEM ALL!
Immediately my adrenaline in blood was pumping as I charged out form behind the tank and ran forward along with about 40 others and made my way to the enemy trenches, gun in hand and saw two sergals manning a machine gun. I Kicked over the machine gun and jumped into the trench, with my gun blazing. I cut two of them down before they started running away, some dropped their weapons and ran away from the onslaught of the bullets but to no avail, as they were cut down from the remaining tank's coaxial machine gun. A few we captured and tied to a near by tree.
Viktor: alright secure the area and regroup, and someone call in in a few transports! And find out where they got these advanced weapons!
Out of the 40 people with us 25 survive, and 6 injured. overall 19 of us are in fighting condition. and a estimated 100-125 enemy dead.
Viktor picks up one of the enemy machine guns and analyses it for a brief moment, and is shocked by what he finds...
He walks over to one of the captured and throws the gun to the ground with a 'thunk!'
Viktor: You dog! Where the hell did you get this weapon!?
northerner: I-I-I don't know..
Viktor: Bullshit! that's a MG 42! Those Germans in WW2 used weapons like those! I know because I was 20 when WW2 came around and those Krauts used guns exactly like those! Now I ask again... where did you get those guns?
Vicktor soon precedes to pull out a makarov and points it to the northerner.
Viktor: Tell me!
The northerner gives Viktor a cold death stare and smiles coldly.
Northerner: Those "krauts" you speak of... came to our world about 18 years ago similar to how you invaders did, the had a red banner with a white circle in the middle along with a strange black symbol in the middle, they killed us similar to how you did, they had strange mechanical beasts and torched our homes, we of course only recently made peace with them and they gave us their weapons and plans for for even more... we... we have many areas constructing these weapons... for every drop of our blood - POW!
Viktor slowly lowers his weapon with smoke trailing out of it. The sergal still talking even from the gunshot to its chest with blood trailing out of his mouth.
Notherner: for every drop of blood spilled is one more sergal will join... our...'POW POW POW POW!!
Viktor does a full mag dump into the almost dead sergal, disusted by it he tosses the gun on the ground.
Viktor: this is going to be the start of a long drown out war...
