Catastrophe

Chapter 1386: Sophisticated weapons

The landing point of the shells was still some distance away from the command post where Baldy Jiao was. At this moment, he was not nervous, because the most feared thing in Wave Ridge was bombing. No matter how many rounds of shelling, the soldiers could come from the trench Climb out and continue to block the enemy.

But only a few seconds later, Baldy Jiao was shocked by the result that followed.

Those shells exploded on the position, and there was no big explosion. On the contrary, their power was somewhat like the cluster grenades made by the soldiers themselves, setting off clouds of dust.

But in the next second, the painting style changed suddenly.

A series of explosions began to occur in the air and on the ground, the flames enveloped the entire position, and shock waves visible to the naked eye swept over.

For a moment, the entire battlefield turned into a huge fireball. Even though Baldy Jiao was more than 1.5 kilometers away from the main position, he felt as if he had been thrown into a high-temperature oven, and his chest shrank violently. He opened his mouth wide but still couldn't breathe.

The regiment leader next to him was a veteran of the gun gang, and he realized the seriousness of the matter in an instant. He dragged Baldy Jiao and started running back: "Retreat! Retreat quickly! It's a gas bomb!"

Oil and gas bombs also have a name in the old world, called cloud bombs.

Such munitions are known as weapons of mass destruction second only to nuclear weapons.

While normal bombs generate their own oxygen, cloud bombs consume external oxygen.

When it explodes for the first time, it will disperse the fuel in the bomb into the air. After the fuel and air are fully mixed, it will detonate the second time, so that the destructive power will be multiplied and released instantly. A large amount of heat energy is emitted, forming a high-temperature and high-pressure fireball, the temperature can exceed 2,000 degrees Celsius, and it expands rapidly at a speed of 2,500 meters per second.

In addition to the huge heat, the oil and gas bomb will also consume the surrounding oxygen, which can cause severe hypoxia for about four minutes at the explosion site. Even if the soldiers escaped the fireball, the four minutes of hypoxia is enough to make them lose their combat effectiveness , and died of suffocation.

Although the oil and gas bomb is only an imported product of the cloud bomb, its power should not be underestimated. The reason why the guards spent such a high price to push the artillery position forward is to make this kind of shell exert its maximum effect.

Although the oil and gas bombs are powerful, their explosiveness is very weak, and their destructive power against solid fortifications is extremely low. However, the current effect has already dealt a devastating blow to the Starlight armed positions.

The soldiers who originally hid in the garrison cave to resist the enemy's shelling were either scorched by the high temperature, or crawled out of the cave due to lack of oxygen. They wanted to breathe fresh air, but found that the outside was equally dull. They opened their mouths wide, but they could only inhale some air. The gunpowder smoke and the thinness of oxygen caused everyone to fall to the ground one after another, suffocating to death.

The thinness of the air prevented the engine of the vehicle from working properly, so the team leader could only drag Bald Jiao away. They were located far away from the explosion point. Although they couldn't breathe, at least there was no fatal danger.

After everyone ran seven or eight hundred meters, Baldy Jiao felt that he had regained some strength, and fell to the ground gasping for breath.

In addition to the gas bombs, he once again saw the power of the plutocrat's top weapons, and the crowd tactics used by the refugees, facing the attack of the high-tech weapons of the guards, was simply a joke.

Fortunately, in order to reduce casualties, the Starlight Armed Forces only deployed a battalion of troops on the position. Compared with more than 5,000 people in a division, the sacrifice of these 300 people is regrettable, but it will not affect the overall situation .

In the cold winter night, the temperature from the explosion of the oil and gas bomb made the surrounding two kilometers almost like summer, and even the ground was scorching hot.

Baldy Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered to the orderlies beside him: "Notify the troops in front immediately, let them counterattack, and hold the position for me!"

"Deputy Commander, it's too late! They fired oil and gas bombs!" The regiment leader next to him shook his head and said, "After the oil and gas bombs explode, there will be a vacuum on the battlefield. Even if our soldiers are not burned to death, they may all be suffocated to death." , They use oil and gas bombs to seize the position in the next time!"

After hearing the head's explanation, Jiao Baldzi's face became more serious: "The Wave Ridge position must not be lost. Once this direction is lost, the enemy will be able to rush into the interior of Dongshan Ridge, and our next battle will be difficult! Is there still time for the troops behind to be transferred?"

The head of the regiment beside him responded without hesitation: "Old Liu's regiment is in charge of guarding the position, and they still have two battalions of troops on standby, they can step up!"

"Let his troops get ready, and when the destructive power of the oil and gas bombs weakens, immediately charge to the position. Even if you can't take the position back, you have to delay the time! In addition, let your troops come to support immediately, we are now Our mission is to defend Wave Ridge at all costs!"

After Jiao Baldzi gave instructions, he turned his attention to the orderly soldiers again: "Ask for help from the division headquarters, let Division Commander Bai lead the rest of the troops to assemble to us, and at the same time report the situation here to the headquarters, telling them that the battle in Wave Ridge is urgent, and ask the headquarters to report to us." Let's send reinforcements here."

Wanrenyan position.

"boom-!"

"boom-!"

Cluster bombs exploded in the air ~lightnovelpub.net~ Numerous sub-bombs scattered and landed on the positions of the Starlight Armed Forces. A position that was fiercely resisting a few seconds ago was razed to the ground in an instant, and hundreds of people died as a result.

In the observation post on the top of the right-wing mountain, Ning Zhe handed the binoculars in his hand to Hu Yihan: "The enemy's attack tonight seems to be more violent than before. For us, this is not a good situation."

"The enemy not only organized a fierce attack on Wanrenyan, but also suffered violent blows in the direction of the cave mountain and wave ridge. At present, the cave mountain front can barely support it by virtue of the terrain advantage, but the enemy in the direction of wave ridge used oil and gas bombs, This is a weapon of mass destruction. At present, the front line over there has been lost, and the situation is not optimistic. The whole army of Bai Jingru's division has set out to support the front line of Bolangling."

Hu Yihan looked at the cluster bombs that fell again, and sighed: "Based on the favorable terrain, we can temporarily resist the enemy's attack, but if they keep this attacking rhythm, our ammunition consumption may not be able to keep up. !"
