The infantry following the tank was scattered and hidden, and Li Dongshi called the American GIs with three short calls.

It is not certain whether the US troops were killed or not, because most of the US troops were looking for hiding spots at that time, and perhaps the three American GIs happened to lie down. Of course, Li Dongshi has absolute confidence in his marksmanship. At a distance of less than 200 meters, even if you don't look at the letter, you can hit a target the size of a human body.

When Li Dongshi dragged He Jian into the underground tunnel, the battle outside had just begun.

Anti-tank missiles took out the first 6 tanks. The U.S. forces immediately returned fire with precision firepower, not giving the anti-tank men more opportunities to sneak attack. It was also at this time that the artillery, under the direct command of the brigade headquarters, was put into battle. At least one company of 12 large-caliber mortars carried out three rounds of rapid shelling. In order to avoid being counterattacked by the long-range artillery of the US army, the artillery of the Airborne Forces will not continue to fire, and all adopt the tactic of "hit and run".

Although there were only 36 shells, the American tanks and infantry fighting vehicles encountered the greatest enemy.

When the mortar projectile equipped with a millimeter-wave radar guidance system reaches the highest point of the trajectory, under the action of inertia, the six wings at the tail of the missile body are used to control the direction and reduce the flight speed, and then the guidance system of the projectile is activated through a mechanical linkage system with a very simple principle. In the descent stage, the millimeter-wave radar works in a scanning and search mode, and after finding the nearest target with the most obvious characteristics, it switches to the lock-on aiming mode to guide the shell to fly to the target in a top-attacking manner. If the target is destroyed, the guidance system automatically switches to scan-search mode to look for another target.

At the time of finalized tests, the hit rate of this 120-mm guided mortar shell exceeded 80%.

Although tanks are covered with thick armor, the thickness of the top armor of the tank is generally no more than 1 mm, and no tank top armor can withstand the direct attack of a self-forging armor-piercing warhead with a diameter of 11 cm and a charge of 25 kg and a lean alloy armor cover.

The price of this kind of artillery shell is also very expensive (mainly the millimeter-wave radar guidance system is too expensive, accounting for 70% of the total cost of artillery shells), and the unit price of 750,000 is even more than most second-hand tanks. But compared to the multimillion-dollar Abrams main battle tank, the price of artillery shells is nothing at all.

The short shelling caused the US armored forces to suffer a "catastrophe".

Explosions rang out one after another. Several of them were particularly violent. It was supposed that the shells in the interior of the aft bay of the "Abrams" turret were killed after being hit by an armor-piercing jet of thousands of degrees Celsius. In this case. Even if "Abrams" has a perfect "explosion suppression" system. There is no guarantee of the safety of the tanks.

The U.S. military reacted very quickly. Artillery fire, which had previously been extending to the rear of the position, turned to the artillery positions of the brigade headquarters.

Li Dongshi came to the second backfire point. Just in time to see the wake of a ground-to-surface missile that had just appeared in the air.

Not bomber-launched surface missiles. Rather, helicopter gunships launch surface-to-surface attack missiles from thousands of meters, or even tens of thousands of meters.

Fire suppression was very intensive. I don't know if the artillery company that had just made a move succeeded in withdrawing from its position.

I have to admit it. The U.S. military's ground cyber warfare system is very powerful.

From the detection of mortar shells by artillery radars to the fall of suppressive fire on artillery positions, it took less than 2 bells before and after! Without a cyber warfare system as an information-sharing platform, the U.S. military's response speed would not have been so astonishing.

It's just that no matter how fast the counterattack comes, it is impossible to prevent the mortar shells from falling.

Nearly 30 tanks and infantry fighting vehicles were transformed into iron coffins of American GIs in a matter of seconds, and the flames from the burning wreckage pierced through the thick smoke of gunpowder, adding an eerie atmosphere to the battlefield.

"Guide the goal!"

When He Jian climbed to the ground, the machine gun in Li Dongshi's hand had already sounded twice in a row, killing two American GIs who had no time to dodge.

"11 o'clock, 25c meters."

Turning the muzzle of the gun, Li Dongshi shot a long point shot without thinking about it.

Dozens of 58mm bullet warheads pierced through the fog and sent 2 American GIs, who had just set up the M249 ~ light machine gun, into the arms of God.

"1 Bell ......"

"Let's go!" Li Dongshi grabbed He Jian and slipped off the firepower.

Very timely, a few bullets grazed He Jiandi's helmet and hit the earthen wall behind him.

"Platoon Commander ......"

"Don't be verbose, follow me."

The two men got into the underground tunnel and ran towards the nearby ground fire point.

There are only two key points in positional defensive operations: First, try to kill and injure the enemy's living forces and inflict unbearable casualties on the enemy; Second, it is necessary to make the best use of all favorable conditions on the defensive positions and never stubbornly defend a single firepower point.

As a "professional" defense unit, the officers and men of the Airborne Forces are well aware of these two dogmas.

As long as these two dogmas are observed, the strength of the troops will become a secondary issue, and the quality of officers and men will be the key factor.

In the Korean War in the 50s of the last century, the Volunteer Army of the Republic once set a defensive combat record in which 1 soldier repelled more than 0 enemy attacks.

The problem is that many first-time recruits forget the rules of operation and don't know what to do in the face of a bitter battle.

When he reached the third firing point, Li Dongshi almost came to the northernmost part of the position.

Several more tanks were beaten to pieces by anti-tank missiles in the hands of the Airborne Forces when they were reversing.

No matter how tenacious the will of the American infantry is, it is impossible to deal with it

In the case of no airborne troops, it will also quickly collapse. Whether the enemy is strong on the battlefield or whether he can defeat the enemy is a secondary question, and if it is found that no matter how much sacrifice is made, the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers will quickly collapse. Of course, there are exceptions. That's the volunteer army in the Korean War!

The American army began to retreat.

At this time, 3~||Several of the machine gunners had already circled to the north of the position, flanking the American infantry, who had lost the cover of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.

The retreat quickly turned into a rout.

In the face of the enemy, who had no intention of fighting and just wanted to escape, Li Dongshi did not change his position, and used up more than 300 rounds of ammunition in two magazines in a row, killing one American soldier.

There was a "hissing" sound in the air, and Li Dongshi dragged He Jian into the underground tunnel.

The two men did not immediately return to the rear along the tunnel, because it was easy to jump in the tunnel during the enemy's shelling.

"Platoon commander, you've killed twenty-one enemies."

The ground shook, and explosions came from nearby fire.

"So many?" Li Dongshi took out a cigarette and handed one to He Jian.

The third class nodded vigorously and said, "I can see very clearly, at least twenty-one, maybe twenty-four. ”

"This is our result." Li Dongshi lit a cigarette and threw the lighter over, "I've learned a lot, right?" ”

He Jian smiled, his right hand trembling and lit a cigarette.

Covering the retreat with artillery fire is the simplest and most commonly used tactic. Under normal circumstances, artillery fire began 50 meters in front of the American skirmish line and extended behind the defensive positions until all American troops withdrew from the battlefield. If there are enough shells, the U.S. military will also try to bring back the remains of the fallen officers and soldiers.

These are the "experiences" summed up by the Iranian army on the battlefield.

Li Dongshi believed that the US military would not take away the bodies of the fallen officers and soldiers, because the US military would not have sufficient ammunition. If the U.S. forces control the skies, there will be bombers and attack planes to support the attack and cover the retreat. Thankfully, the Republican Air Force did not let the U.S. military dominate the skies.

The shelling lasted about 5 minutes.

Calling He Jian, Li Dongshi returned to the rear of the position.

"Lao Li, I killed 2 tanks."

"Not bad." Li Dongshi walked over to Zhang Zhi, who was treating his wounds, "Injured?" ”

"Abrasions, no chance to get out of the line of fire."

"The squad leader, the platoon commander killed more than twenty American soldiers."

"So much?" Zhang Zhi glanced at Li Dongshi, "Old Li, next time I'll go to the front." ”

"Okay, next time." Li Dongshi put down the machine gun, "Perhaps, the US military will adjust its tactics and reorganize its troops, so that we can rest in peace for a few hours." ”

"Is it possible?" Zhang Zhi smiled, "The company commander just came over and said that the army had arrived at the wolf forest and was advancing south; The vanguard of the 37th Army has just captured Jiulongli and is advancing towards Linchanli; The 38th Army did not encounter any resistance along the way, and it will soon reach Duancheon, so let's hold on a little longer. ”

"So fast?"

"The company commander doesn't look like he's lying, anyway, the more fierce the attack from the north, the more crazy the U.S. army's breakout operation will be."

"Send a few people to the battalion headquarters to get more ammunition, especially anti-tank missiles and anti-aircraft missiles." Li Dongshi let out a sigh, and it seemed that he didn't want to gasp for breath on the battlefield.

"I sent it a long time ago, I heard that the battalion headquarters prepared braised pork, I don't know if it has changed its taste."

Li Dongshi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile.

Before the warriors who had gone back to get their equipment returned, a strange sound was heard in the air.

Li Dongshi and Zhang Zhi were both shocked, because it was not the sound of artillery shells, nor the sound of bombs falling, nor the sound of ground attack missiles launched by helicopters.

"Hide—"

The officers and men on the position rushed to the nearest anti-artillery hole as fast as they could, and Li Dongshi, Zhang Zhi, and others were at the back of the position, and the closest to them was the tunnel leading to the underground bunker.

This difference saved Li Dongshi and others, and also buried other officers and soldiers scattered on the battlefield.

When he got into the underground tunnel, Li Dongshi glanced at the eastern sky where the voice came, and a sense of fear rose in his heart.

"Go to the underground bunker!"

Hearing Li Dongshi's urging, the fighters in front immediately quickened their pace and rushed to the nearest underground bunker.

When Li Dongshi rushed into the underground bunker, the earth shook violently, and then there was a low explosion. Before the panicked warrior came to his senses, the high-strength sealed door quickly closed.

Thermobaric bomb!

As if a giant hand was wielding a hammer and pounding hard, the gate made of high-strength composite materials made a creepy "thump" sound.

Not to mention the recruits, Li Dongshi's hairs stood up and down all over his body.

A few seconds later, they'll all be charred corpses in the tunnel.

The B-2A bomber dropped a kilogram-heavy "super thermobaric bomb" from a distance of 100 kilometers, which instantly swept the defensive position north of the 153rd Airborne Brigade, killing more than 20 airborne troops who had not had time to retreat into underground bunkers. Fortunately, the defending position was 2 platoons, not 1 battalion!

At this time, to the north of the battlefield, the 54th Army was attacking south at full speed.

Damn it**
