Chapter 1102: Shelling
Five hundred meters away, Old Josie and Baburu also felt that today's battle was quite funny. After the merger of the two forces www.biquge.info the number of their two groups is unprecedentedly strong, but the pressure to survive is also unprecedentedly strong. In order to survive, they have tried all means, and the 10,000 people in front of them are already their last main force.
Some time ago at the multi-party talks, Victor. The demeanor of the captain of the Hugo Legion has been undoubtedly displayed, and the ferocity and tyranny of the mutants have been heard, but none of this can change the determination of Josie Sr. and Babulu. They tried to attack the bases of the Chinese in exchange for survival and negotiations.
Now that they had finally found a hidden Chinese base, Josie Sr. and Bablu felt that their plan was at least half successful, but they knew that the mines laid by the river blocked their way.
Angola is a country with gentle terrain and tropical savannahs and sparse woodlands. The black robbers who launched the attack also tried to deviate from the river and find another way, but after entering a woodland and being hit by a few mines, they did not dare to walk casually. The greatest fear of landmines is their unknownness.
Losing the sharpness of attack, but greedy for the prey that may be in hand, this is a big taboo. It's just that the black robbers know that they have alarmed the target of the plunder, but they just don't leave, and they still hope that some miracle will happen.
Baburu sent people to find out if there were any other roads, and old Josie observed the Chinese on the opposite side. The two sides were separated by four or five hundred meters, and from time to time they fired a few cold guns to deter each other.
The low, modest wooden houses, the simply planned roads, the carefully cultivated land, the frightened evacuees, everything in the telescope comforted old Josie - this was a residential area with oil and water, and there was sure to be a lot of good things to be scavenged.
"Especially since we didn't see many guards, we didn't have to pay too much." Old Josie was thinking beautifully, when suddenly his pupils shrank, and he saw several machine guns coming from behind a position on the opposite side. Just look at the triangular gun carriage and he knows something bad - the other side has a heavy machine gun.
Black attacks have always been a swarm, and when they are told about evacuation formations, they will say that their companions are too far away and they are afraid. And now they are also gathered together when they are resting, which is the best target for heavy machine guns.
In heavy machine-gun fire, there was a means of indirect attack with hanging shots. It's like a kettle watering flowers, and a dense stream of bullets rises a distance in the form of a parabola and then falls down to hit a surface target. This is an effective way for ordinary people to deal with dense groups, but it is an excellent shooter.
Old Josie had a bit of insight, and when he saw the deployment of several heavy machine guns of his opponent, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately turned around and ran - at a distance of four or five hundred meters, it was difficult for the naked eye to see the target in the distance, but he knew that when the machine guns went off, a dense rain of bullets would bring huge casualties.
As soon as old Josie ran, his guards naturally followed. The leader and the gang turned around and ran, and the other blacks subconsciously followed. The black community has long been frightened, and chaos has been born from this, and countless people have begun to retreat with a chirp, even blocking old Josie's own escape.
And just when old Josie was complaining about this, the bullet rain he imagined did not come. At this time, Baburu brought people back, and when he saw this scene, he immediately fired a warning gun, and finally prevented the collapse of the team.
"Why retreat?" Bablu angrily found old Josie.
Old Josie looked back at the direction of the base, which had not moved, and said hesitantly: "I found those Chinese machine guns." ”
The two black leaders reached back to the front line and found that the machine guns were there, but the machine guns did not fire. The two of them were puzzled by this strange situation, and Bablu lay down in a pile of weeds to give an explanation that was not an explanation - maybe they were just defending and didn't want to kill us.
Is this possible? Old Josie looked puzzled. And just as the black robbers are once again stabilizing their emotions, the direction of the Chinese base is facing new problems.
Qin Ming held a yellowed booklet in his hand and said eloquently: "The book says that the Type 63 107mm rocket artillery shell can be fired directly without a barrel. Don't you know? ”
Facing the questioning, Wen Tianyu touched his head and nodded: "I know, I know, but we have never used it like this!" ”
The Type 63 107-mm rocket launcher is a strange weapon made by the turtle, and it is a heavy firepower specially prepared for mountain troops and guerrillas. It has a whole bunch of magical features, the most interesting of which is that its shells don't need a barrel, just find a mound and fire them.
It can be heard that when Tianyu and others joined the army, the rabbit army was not the poor and scumbag it was back then. Who has a cannon barrel in the army that is not used, and has to train this kind of dragon slaying skill that is inaccurate, can't shoot far, and basically can't be used for the rest of his life?
This was the design reserved for the most difficult and embarrassing situation back then, and Wen Tianyu really didn't think that he would encounter it one day. But now it's okay, I really ran into it-the ancestors and the ancestors are above, and you are definitely teasing me today!
Wen Tianyu grabbed the yellowed booklet that appeared with the shells, this booklet was still in the ammunition box when the shells were manufactured, the pages were brittle and shattered at the touch of a button, and the cover was also printed with the quotation that 'the great leader Chairman Mao taught us ......'.
"This book is enough for my grandfather." After Wen Tianyu complained, he grabbed the battalion commander of the division's artillery battalion, "Come on, launch without a barrel, you can do it." ”
The battalion commander of the artillery battalion was also bitter, frowned and said, "I haven't practiced this kind of fighting before." Boss, you're embarrassing me. ”
Wen Tianyu's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't call me boss, we are a regular army." I am now your chief. ”
That's how the regular army uses this weapon?
The artillery battalion commander was also helpless, so he could only bite the yellow-haired and brittle pamphlet, open it and read it carefully, and then ordered his subordinates: "Come on, dig a few mounds of soil with sappers and shovels, and shoot them solidly." ”
It's easy to dig a mound, and the ammo box of the rocket is really equipped with a three-fluted ruler for easy firing. The shells were placed on the mounds, and the three rulers were placed on the shells for aiming. And then.......
"Is there a battery?" The hard-headed artillery battalion commander pointed to the instructions in the pamphlet, "One battery with two wires, attached to the bottom of the shell, can be ignited." ”
Is it really that simple?
This simple artillery position attracted many onlookers, and it was really a shell on a mound of earth. At most, the mound is sloped according to the firing table, so that the shells can shoot at targets 500 meters away.
said that he wanted a battery, and everyone looked at Qin Ming. Qin Ming shrugged his shoulders, and also pointed to the booklet and said, "Where can I find a battery for you now?" Didn't the pamphlet say it? If necessary, the back cover of the shell can be pried open and fired with a torch. ”
Lighting a cannonball with a torch, what did the designers of those years think? They are not looking for inspiration from the second kick.
Even Wen Tianyu's face was full of black lines, but he could only order: "Why are you watching?" Pry! ”
The artillery battalion commander could only continue to pry open the back cover of the shell and prepare a torch. However, he continued to order: "Set up all the shells, and if the first shot is okay, we will blast the rest together." ”
Qin Ming brought in a hundred shells, so the ten-by-ten firing position was easily constructed. The shells were all aimed at tens of thousands of black uncles a few hundred meters away.
"I'm going to light the fire." The commander of the artillery battalion knelt on one knee in front of a mound with a torch in hand, not too confident. He didn't look like a modern artilleryman at all, but an old gunner who played breech guns hundreds of years ago.
"Order, order." Wen Tianyu urged. To be honest, he had never seen a shell fired without a barrel.
The commander of the artillery battalion fired the torch behind the butt of the shell, and the gunpowder that fueled the fire immediately began to smoke, and after a few seconds the gas came out of the nozzle of the rocket, and the shell flew out with a whoosh.
It's really good to fight, and the friends expressed their extreme surprise. And just as everyone was watching, the 107-millimeter rocket flew upwards for a distance, tilting the nozzle to rotate the rocket around the shaft, and the warhead crossed the high point and then plunged head-on.
There was a lot of movement in the rockets, and Josie Sr. and Baburu, who were watching from the front line, saw a black dot flying towards them with a tail of smoke, passing over their heads and exploding in the crowd behind them.
Cannonball?!
The brains of the two black leaders immediately buzzed, and a cold sweat broke out. They immediately overturned the idea they had just made - the Chinese on the other side were not soft-hearted, they were going to kill them all!
When a shell was successfully fired, the artillery battalion commander suddenly became more confident, and immediately shouted: "No problem, all of them will be set on fire." A hundred rounds blasted through. ”
The advantage of rocket artillery is that the firing density is high, the suddenness is high, and twelve rounds at a time are already equivalent to a howitzer battalion. And now a hundred rounds ......, which is simply an artillery division.
Everyone in the artillery battalion grabbed a torch and waited for the battalion commander to give the order, and they all lit the back of the shell's buttocks. The ten-by-ten firing position began to swish and continue to emit tail smoke, and shells flew into the sky one after another.
The roar of firing continued, and a hundred shells fell like a plough, and the roaring waves of explosions spread out like a carpet. The black men crouching on the opposite side had just been startled by the first shell, and were about to get up and run, when the subsequent shells fell beside them.
The dense explosions were impossible to dodge, and the chaotic crowd was the best target, and everyone in the black community was on the run. But no matter how shouting and desperately trying, many people often run dozens of meters or are easily caught up and blown up by shells.
One shell covers a radius of more than 10 meters, and 100 shells are calculated and arranged to cover an area of tens of thousands of square meters. Hundreds of meters away, the river bay is like a sea of fire burning with iron and blood, and it can be said that no one is immune to the fire.
Watching the disappear in the air waves and fragments, the group of people in the artillery battalion jumped up and shouted wildly, clapping their hands in praise. Wen Tianyu was also immediately happy, "This grandfather-level cannonball is really powerful!" ”
