|contents=Similar to the previous mission, you can carry two weapons at once. However, in this mission and beyond, there are more than just two weapons to use. The choice of weapons you use is important. You're going to want to have a grenade launcher for this mission, so be sure to have a weapons loadout that contains one. }} | |contents=Similar to the previous mission, you can carry two weapons at once.

After watching the introductory cutscene, you'll receive the order to move from Sarge. Follow the squad to the edge of a ridge. Don't drop down just yet (you can't anyway) because a group of enemies are approaching from below. They're completely blindsighted, but fire on Sarge's mark to eliminate the group quickly. Fortunately, it is impossible to mess the timing up on this section, as you will be completely unable to fire until Sarge gives the signal. | After watching the introductory cutscene, you'll receive the order to move from Sarge.

[[Image:BFBC2_FirstSetofEnemies.png|left|thumb|Pick an enemy and hold the fire button. You can't shoot before Sarge gives the signal, so don't worry about screwing up.]] | |||
After eliminating the group, be sure to loot their weapons. The TOZ-194 shotgun can be found here, along with the burst-firing AN-94. The AN-94 can prove to be a more effective weapon than your standard XM8, as the burst-firing and cleaner scope can aid considerably with aiming, but the choice is up to you. Just be sure to pick the weapon up to add it to your list of collectables; you can pick your XM8 back up if you choose. | After eliminating the group, be sure to loot their weapons.

Follow the group across the river to witness the first appearance of a main enemy character. After a cutscene and a display of his callousness, proceed across the river and up the stairs to the objective marker. | Follow the group across the river to witness the first appearance of a main enemy character.

Your first set of real enemies appears here - two infantry and a machine gun-armed Vodnik. You'll be able to take a shot or two before the enemy becomes aware of your presence, so try to make it count. Skilled players can shoot the gunner of the Vodnik before taking damage from him, but it's a difficult shot without the proper aids and knowing exactly where to aim. Should you choose to take this route, aim directly at the barrel of the gun, which doesn't shield the gunner. | Your first set of real enemies appears here - two infantry and a machine gun-armed Vodnik.

If your accuracy isn't pinpoint, however, you'll want to take the brute force method and use your grenade launcher on it. Switch to the grenade launcher and fire away at the Vodnik. Pop in and out from behind the building as necessary to destroy the Vodnik, which absorbs roughly three grenades before going down. | If your accuracy isn't pinpoint, however, you'll want to take the brute force method and use your grenade launcher on it.

Continue to advance, but hug the left side of the road. You'll encounter quite a few enemies here, and there is far more cover in the buildings on the left than on the road itself. Take caution regarding a rocket-launching enemy inside a house just before the bend left. You won't be able to grab his weapon, unfortunately. | Continue to advance, but hug the left side of the road.
