A Mercenary’s War
v1 Chapter 589: Artillery
The fierce artillery blows brought them a little trouble, but they are the one who fired the gun. The real trouble is that they must be British.
Gao Yang was determined to stop the bombardment in order to restore his vision and kill the enemy's tank, but before he ordered it, the British tank rushed out of the sand with unprecedented momentum.
Gao Yang wanted to destroy the British tanks. The British wanted to destroy his artillery positions, and it was definitely more urgent than Gao Yang.
A chief tank first rushed out of the area not covered by sand and dust. Once the field of vision was cleared, the chief tank fired and the shells bloomed in the artillery position.
The second tank also rushed out. This time it was a t-55 tank. Similarly, the second tank fired immediately after it rushed out of sand and dust.
Gao Yang was very dissatisfied, he shouted on the intercom: "Fire! Fire! Are you in the third row watching the show!"
In the loud roar, the first anti-tank missile was finally fired out. The anti-tank missile flew up and down with a flying trajectory, and then directed at the chief tank, and then stuck on the turret with a sound. Loud noise.
The chief tank stopped, and at the same time, the second anti-tank missile was also launched. The target was the t-55, and the missile also hit the turret.
After making a loud noise, the t-55 tank waited for a moment, and two large explosions occurred inside the tank. The ammunition carried on the t-55 tank was exploded and the tank turret was lifted to midair.
The t-55 became a pile of burning scrap iron, but the chief tank that rushed out came to a halt again after a pause. but. This time the Chieftain Tank did not move on. Instead, back at full speed.
The anti-tank missile failed to destroy the chief tank, which is not particularly surprising. The protective performance of the chief tank is much better than that of the t55. The warhead of the anti-tank missile is a warhead. Although it is powerful, there are many reasons for it. Affecting the power of the missile, such as different angles when hitting the tank armor, will greatly reduce the damage effect of the anti-tank missile.
Which tank's armor is probably not penetrated. It may also be that after the armor was penetrated, the occupants in the car did not receive fatal damage and still had the ability to drive the tank back, but in any case, it is not worthy of a fuss that the missile strike in the chief tank was not completely destroyed.
The chief tank quickly returned to the sand and dust area, making the anti-tank missile useless again.
In the short communion, many things can be seen. For example, the chief tank cannot be accurately shot in the sand and dust. This can be concluded that the chief tank is a very old model. Not equipped with a thermal imager, but the protective effect is still good.
Although it destroyed a tank. But the situation is still unclear and the battle is not easy to fight.
If you ca n’t penetrate the armor of the Chieftain ’s tank from the front, it will be fought from the side or the rear of the weak armor. The anti-tank missile will take time to move and deploy, but now that the missile is ready and the enemy tank is in range, you do n’t have to. Moved.
Gao Yang hurriedly said in the intercom: "The artillery ceasefire, anti-tank missiles are ready to attack, don't be afraid of wasting missiles, be sure to solve the enemy's tank."
The artillery ceased fire and the anti-tank missiles stood in wait. After Gao Yang gave orders, he continued to dig hard for his bunkers, only to let the dust clear.
But when the bunker dug by Gao Yang was enough to cover him, the diffuse sand was almost gone, no longer affecting his sight. Gao Yang glanced up and found that he had lost the track of the tank, and the enemy's tank was run away.
When it was found that the enemy's tank had been evacuated, Gao Yang immediately said: "Teaching company, one row and two rows continue to detour, three rows are on standby, and the missile is ready to fire at any time."
After speaking on the intercom, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "Go!"
The Satan mercenary group continues to move forward. The eyes of a unit are not so good. If you want to see more things, you have to get closer. Closer, it means more dangerous.
The bunker that has just been dug will be abandoned before it is used, but this kind of thing is not a problem on the battlefield.
The Satan mercenary regiment began to advance towards the position they had just shelled. The speed was not fast. The distance between people was at least 20 meters away from each other, and they slowly advanced with the scattered line.
After feeling a very long march, Gao Yang climbed onto the small dune that was completely overturned by the gunfire. After seeing the vision, Gao Yang just glanced forward and said in the intercom: "Teaching is one row and two rows, Occupy the woodland on my right, build an anti-tank position, move forward in three rows, the follow-up troops keep up, our enemy built a defense line on the second sand dune, coordinate b4, began artillery preparation, three rocket test shots, let go!
With the map, Gao Yang had a detailed understanding of the terrain around Gaisale, so before reaching Gaisale, Gao Yang set the coordinates with Zhou Zhou based on the satellite map and the military map. The artillery did not know it. Zhou Zhou knew it.
After waiting for a few tens of seconds, as three rockets sounded, three explosions of smoke appeared in the sky.
If it was an artillery commanded by Grolevov, Gao Yang wouldn't want to go beyond shooting, but with Zhou Zhou in it, it would be fine to go beyond shooting, so Gao Yang now acts as a gunfire observer.
When it was found that the rocket's landing point was very accurate, Gao Yang immediately said: "The rocket fired a full round of fire, let go!"
With the sound of rockets, another round of artillery came.
In Gao Yang's heart, there is no other feeling except coolness. Artillery doctrine is a vigorous play. No matter how high the quality of your individual soldiers is, a round of artillery shells is thrown away and all the fun is gone.
Only in a place like Somalia can the 107-mm rockets and 60-mm mortars be brought together to play the feeling of an artillery, and you can switch to a slightly stronger country, 105 mm, 122 mm, 152 mm, 155 mm , 203 mm, barrel caliber howitzers of various calibers let people know what a real artillery is, and there is no need to mention mortars, it is not enough to see, and rocket artillery, because in a true sense can use large-scale rocket artillery countries , Namely, China and Russia, and playing artillery in front of these two countries is purely boring, and even the United States has to stand by.
Not to mention whether artillery is outdated, but in this place in Somalia, artillery is synonymous with invincibility in the battlefield faced by the Skeleton Gang!
While Gao Yang was observing the effects of the bombardment, others scattered and quickly checked the positions. After summarizing, Li Jinfang quickly reported the enemy's damage to him.
"The report found that there were about sixteen corpses of the enemy. No casualties were found. The corpses are basically white and should be British. However, it is impossible to make a clear judgment because the corpses are basically in pieces."
Hearing Li Jinfang ’s report, Gao Yang could n’t help but smile. It seems that the first round of artillery fire gave the enemy a big surprise. Although the body is probably sixteen, the complete body and the wounded must have been taken away. Only broken corpses that cannot be cleaned will be left behind. It is conservatively estimated that the enemy's casualties are at least 30 to 50.
The British are veterans, they will not be crowded into guns, so it is really unexpected to be able to cause such large damage to the enemy, but this also proves from the side how fierce the fire of the Skeleton Gang was just now.
Who would have expected that Somali pirates would play artillery?
If this is not expected, it deserves to be shot.
Anyway, the British certainly did not expect that they would encounter large-scale artillery fire. If they had a little preparation, they would not be able to suffer such a big loss in the first round of artillery fire.
The enemy has retreated to the second line of defense, and it must be in a hurry. Gao Yang can see the tank returned, but the tank also hid behind the dunes on the second line of defense.
After the enemy was suppressed by artillery again, he hurriedly said: "The mortar moves forward and shoots indirectly. The enemy lacks artillery, but they must be careful of their tank guns and the cannons on the armored vehicles."
Before Gao Yang's words fell, he saw five bmp-2 armored vehicles appearing from the enemy's second line of defense, and then started shooting at their position. The two remaining tanks of the enemy also raised their guns. In spite of this, shelling of artillery positions that had always caused them a great threat began.
They did n’t dare to rush forward too much. When they found out that the enemy ’s armored vehicle was dispatched, they immediately backed away. When the 30mm cannon on the armored vehicle began to show power, they had already hid behind the sand dunes. Firepower.
The plan ca n’t keep up with the changes. This is especially normal on the battlefield. The assault battle has become a huge battle between the two sides. Www.lightnovelpub.net ~ This ending is completely unexpected by the British, but Gao Yang has at least made some preparations. .
Although the progress was not too smooth, Gao Yang restrained the urge to laugh unknowingly. He prepared an artillery to give the British a big surprise, and the artillery was the key to victory and defeat, and now , Gao Yang has a strong feeling of conspiracy.
Hiding behind the sand dunes, after a satisfied breath, said in the intercom: "Three guns, let the artillery continue, slow down the rate of fire, but don't stop, you can do some extended shooting, don't be too regular, um, It ’s better that they feel unsafe when they are there. "
After giving orders to the artillery, Gao Yang immediately said on the frequency of the teaching company: "Teaching company, pay attention to observe the enemy's movements, establish anti-tank positions as soon as possible, but not sure not to fire, try to fire the enemy tanks as far as possible. Armored vehicles can be released as long as they do n’t attack. "
As soon as Gao Yang's voice fell, he heard the company commander of the teaching company hurriedly say: "Report that the enemy infantry launched an attack under the cover of the armored vehicle. They went in your direction, please instruct." (To be continued ... )
ps: I do n’t know why, there is always a feeling of panic and shortness of breath ..
