Chapter 321: Pressing the Bottom of the Box
The violent explosion set off a wave of air and dragon clouds flew up, and the whole person was buried in a thick layer of falling rubble and clods.
"Captain Dragon! What happened? Jon's voice roared over the radio channel.
Long Yun felt dizzy, as if he was blown up by a shock bomb thrown by Lieutenant Colonel Walker in the barracks at Fort Banning, and the dense bullet clamps on his chest pressed against his chest, and he broke out in a cold sweat. The head hit the ground, but fortunately, under the protection of the PT helmet with good performance, he was just a little dizzy and not injured.
"Holy...... How can there be helicopters, the Taliban have helicopters? Long Yun came out from under the layer of soil, his body was yellow, orange and orange, shaking the soil, he leaned against the big rock and gasped for breath.
"It looks like a Mi-24 Doe gunship!" Jon said, "What the Soviets left behind." β
Only then did Long Yun remember that it was rumored that the Taliban also had air power, and they did not have nothing.
Of course, their planes are basically very backward in performance, all captured during the battle with the former Soviet army, and some were not destroyed when the Soviet army retreated, but the number is not much, including 30 MiG-23 fighters, 80 MiG-21 fighters, and no more than 10 Mi-24 "Doe" helicopter gunships.
Perhaps because Bagram Air Base is now being attacked by troops of the 82nd Airborne Division and the 10th Mountain Division along with Northern Alliance soldiers, it is difficult for those fighters to take off and land, and at the beginning of the launch, the US military's cruise missiles have carried out precise strikes on various hangars and bases, only the Mi-24 helicopter gunship that is easy to hide can still be used.
"Jon, what's the matter, is your colleague carrying a nuclear bomb!?" Long Yun shouted loudly: "These Taliban are definitely elite troops, and all the good things at the bottom of the box have been taken out!" β
"I don't know! I can't get in touch with the previous command, so I can't get the latest information. Jon was helpless.
"It's definitely a bad idea to get caught up in this mess." Long Yun said: "You quickly contact the front line command, the Taliban planes are coming, where is our air support?" β
As he spoke, Long Yun stretched out half of his head from behind the stone, and as soon as he stretched out his head, he saw that two Taliban soldiers had rushed to a place less than two meters in front of the stone.
Perhaps thinking that Long Yun had been seriously injured, the two Taliban were a little unscrupulous, and they lost the caution of jumping and hiding everywhere just now, taking advantage of the terrain to leap forward, shouting "Alahu Akbar" in their mouths, and shooting at Long Yun's location with guns.
The bullet hit the stone into a splash of stone chips, Long Yun quickly retracted his head, and a small stone hit the goggles with a snap.
Long Yun quickly ripped off an M57 anti-personnel grenade, tore off the pull ring, waited for more than a second, and then quickly threw it from behind the stone in the direction where the two Taliban soldiers were.
Boom β
The explosion rang out, and the two Taliban soldiers screamed and rolled down the hillside.
Knowing that Long Yun was not dead, the other Taliban soldiers immediately became cautious and slowed down the speed of their attack.
The roaring engine rushed towards this side, and Long Yun saw that the Mi-24 "Doe" in the night sky was like a huge heat source, and the engine part emitted this orange-red light in the thermal imager.
Subconsciously touched the back, but only touched an AK47, Long Yun realized that his squad had no anti-aircraft weapons at all, this time it was flying to Bagram Air Base, and the Delta detachment did not consider equipping anti-aircraft weapons when it came out of this kind of mission, not to mention that in a place like Afghanistan, the probability of encountering a Taliban plane is more difficult than that of the Mark Six lottery.
"Jon, did you bring anti-aircraft missiles?" Long Yun still had a glimmer of illusion.
"Nope! This is a Class D mission, and there will be no anti-aircraft missiles! Jon's answer shattered Long Yun's illusions.
Dingββ
A metal clash sounded in the air.
Long Yun looked up and saw a string of small sparks burst out on the Mi-24's fuselage, which was very conspicuous in the night sky.
Dingββ
Another bang.
At this moment, Long Yun understood that it was the sniper Anderson who was using his M200 sniper rifle to shoot the Mi-24 continuously. IN FACT, THE CALIBER OF M200 BELONGS TO A LARGE CALIBER, 12.7MM, AND THE POWER IS ACTUALLY VERY GOOD, BUT THE MI-24 HAS BEEN POSITIONED AS AN ARMED HELICOPTER FROM THE PLACE OF DESIGN, AND ATTACHES GREAT IMPORTANCE TO THE DAMAGE OF THE WAR OF RESISTANCE, AND THE PRESSURIZED COCKPIT AND THE TROOP TRANSPORT CABIN ARE INTEGRATED, WITH NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL PROTECTION FUNCTIONS. THE PILOT'S SEAT IS PROTECTED BY ARMOR, THE SIDE OF THE COCKPIT AND THE ENGINE HOOD ARE ALSO PROTECTED BY ARMOR, AND THE HAIR CARGO HAS ALWAYS BEEN HARD AND THICK, AND THE BULLETPROOF PLATE ON THE MI-24 CAN RESIST THE ATTACK OF 12.7MM CALIBER WARHEAD.
Anderson's adventurous action soon attracted retaliation, the Mi-24 nose was a little, gave up dealing with Long Yun, and rushed towards Anderson's sniper position, a 12.7 mm four-barreled Gatling machine gun mounted on the crane at the lower part of the nose burst into a crazy tongue of fire, Long Yun saw a huge cloud of smoke and dust on the top of the hillside, and the loess flew up in the sky, enveloping Anderson's position.
"Anderson!" Jon shouted over the radio to his teammates, but Anderson didn't respond, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Okay." Long Yun pulled out a new magazine from his tactical vest, which contained Edison's proud work of the Equipment Department - high-explosive shells. In the experimental small range of the equipment department, Long Yun saw Edison easily blast open a third-level body armor with it, to say that the power is still very terrifying, more importantly, this cargo is loaded with Edison's self-made high-explosive charge, and there are two huge air intakes under the propeller of the Mi-24, if the bullet can be shot from there, it may be able to damage its engine.
Just do it, time waits for no one. What's more, the Mi-24 obviously thought that Anderson had lost its threat, and flew towards Long Yun after making a big circle in the air.
Being stared at and beaten on the battlefield is both a proud thing and a very sad thing.
Pride is that the opponent thinks you are a terrible character, and the first choice is to kill you, that is, to look up to you; The sad thing is that you will be subjected to several times more concentrated fire than others, especially if a helicopter gunship is staring at you, it is definitely a sad urge in a sad urge.
"******, it's up to Lao Tzu to bully, right?" Long Yun gritted his teeth and pushed the special high-explosive bullet into the chamber, this special ammunition developed to deal with the Divine Servants and Guards, Long Yun didn't want to use it at first, after all, who knows if he will encounter any strange races near the Holy Temple? Ever since he was mixed up with these perverts in the sky, Long Yun felt that it was not surprising that he ran into a Godzilla even if he went on a mission.
The Mi-24 had already dropped the nose in the air, and the two engine air intakes under the propellers glowed a hotter red in the night vision goggles than in other areas.
"That's you!" Long Yun lay behind the stone, took a deep breath of air, and lowered his heart rate.
He was waiting for the Mi-24 to get into the best shot. One hundred meters, one hundred meters is the best shot. If you are far away, you are afraid that the power will not be enough, and when you get close, the plane will suddenly pass overhead, and you will not be able to aim at all.
For a helicopter gunship flying at high speed, a hundred meters can be completed in less than two seconds.
To grasp this fleeting opportunity, it is necessary to hit it with one hit, which is a huge test of Long Yun's marksmanship.
His heart was beating dullly, and Long Yun knew very well that if he missed this opportunity, he might not have a chance to fire a second shot. The 12.7-caliber four-barreled Gatling under the nose of the Mi-24 will tear apart the stones where he is hiding in an instant, sweeping himself into a pile of rotten meat.
