Chapter 140 Artillery Showdown
The battle began when the North American Civil Guard discovered the micro-Unmanned Reconnaissance aircraft.
Originally, all the reconnaissance personnel sent by Donald were deliberately let go, but when he discovered the micro-unmanned reconnaissance aircraft in the training camp, the nets to deal with the scouts he had cast were tightened.
In the situation where the enemy is open and we are secret, the sharpshooters in the training camp have harvested more than a dozen heads.
The second thing to attack was the cannon platoon that had already been arranged in the positions. It took three days to learn how to fire it. It was quite difficult, but it could be basically used.
If you don’t help, you can adjust the shooting elements for them, just plug the shells.
The gun platoon is equipped with three PP87-type and 82mm caliber mortars. Each gun has eight ammunition hands alone, which is completely exceeding the standard compared to a mortar squad.
"The visual distance is 4,000 meters, the height and low shooting boundary has been adjusted, the direction shooting boundary has been adjusted, the No. 6 recharge, and a high-explosive grenade test shot."
The training camps are all from reconnaissance companies and do not have professional artillery soldiers. Fortunately, they are mortars, so they can't play with other artillery training camps.
Compared with other artillery, mortars are quite easy to get started.
When Donald saw the miniature drone, he knew that these people were cheated by others.
Or it was tricked by inertial thinking.
But this is not important. What is important is that the scouts sent out have no response and no flag words are sent back. It is precisely because of this that Donald wants to organize his company immediately to occupy the favorable terrain and prepare for the battle.
He couldn't speak yet, and a howling sound came from the air.
"Architecture, avoid shelling!"
He and Hansen rushed into the ditch on the side of the road at a very fast speed, and then a mortar high-explosive grenade landed not far from where they were standing.
The shell had an amazing result. Within 15 meters, no one was alive, and from 15 meters away, someone was injured by shrapnel.
After all, Donald was very experienced and immediately jumped up and shouted at his soldiers: "This is a test fire, a large-scale shelling is coming soon. Hurry up and find cover to avoid cannons!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the reactions of the two companies who had been on the battlefield were different from those who had not.
People who have never been on the battlefield are still stunned. How should they hide?
Those who had gone to the battlefield immediately rolled into the ditch that they could reach immediately, trying to shrink their bodies into a ball, but they were not lying on the ground.
Sure enough, as soon as the shell exploded, there were continuous whistling sounds of shells coming from the sky.
The explosion instantly covered the two companies of Donald and Hansen, and I don’t know if the shrapnel was also covered.
The opponent bombed a total of ten shells, directly blowing Donald and Hansen's wings from beginning to end.
People call the horses neigh, but there are not many horses that can run.
Because when the shells hit, the horses were standing and they were suffering more shrapnel than those who crawled on the ground.
There are not many ten shells, but the lethality caused by shrapnel is simply amazing.
"The direction we are heading, at 9 o'clock, on the mountain around 3,800 meters, where are our cannons?
Children, hurry up and assemble our cannons and fight back!”
Donald shouted, he was very glad that the road they were marching was not flat, but there were some backslopes of soil slopes to conceal and form counterattack mortar positions.
The experienced soldiers had already hid in and started to conduct hidden vigilance. The inexperienced soldiers were still lying on the spot and were named by snipers who had already approached others.
After hearing Donald's roar, some soldiers ran nervously to the horses that had been blown down to unload their equipment. Because it was a marching, their cannons were tied to the horse's back.
Fortunately, the 82mm high-explosive grenade had a considerable killing radius, which made them use the mortar body, the horses on the mount and base were blown down before they could run. If they ran away, they would not even have the hair to form a mortar position.
Ignoring the comrades who were wailing and roaring on the ground, or were still motionless, and the people who were still alive, nervously and quickly untied the equipment they carried on their horses.
Even though I had seen a training camp that was pressing up a kilometer away, even if someone was knocked down to the ground by a sniper gun from time to time.
It can be seen that even those who play sniper rifles are mostly raw seeds. If they are veterans, they will not be able to shoot so many guns.
Two 120mm caliber mortars are commonly used in the North American Civil Guard.
The assembly speed is very fast, after all, it is not the temporary artillery apprentice in the training camp who drives ducks to the shelves.
They were assembled, and some people had long been able to calculate the distance and orientation of the artillery position of the training camp from the ballistic point.
So after some adjustments, four shells were fired out with two bangs.
But after firing out four shells, they heard the sound of howling in the air. Then they hid in the backscene of this small earth slope, and some soldiers, were directly bombarded into the sky by three rapid-fired shells.
It turned out that the opponent's artillery stopped bombarding just now, and it was only after they hid that they could catch them all in one place. But they didn't expect that they assembled the turret so quickly that they actually fired four artillery shells out.
It was these four shells, 120mm caliber mortar high-explosion grenade, which directly reimbursed the entire gun platoon of the training camp.
This shows the difference between a novice and a veteran.
Bai Chao received the report, and his gun platoon had been wiped out. In fact, even if there was no report, it was displayed on the drone.
The artillery position was in ruins, but there were still people alive.
"Sanitation platoon, hurry up to the artillery position and save people!"
Yes, there is a sanitary tray.
Most of them are female soldiers, and there are two female soldiers platoons led by professional nurses. They are all people whose military quality training is super substandard.
When the female soldiers received the order, they quickly ran to the artillery position, carrying stretchers.
It’s just hard to imagine what it would be like to carry a stretcher with a soft woman?
But before they could carry the stretcher, they had just as they were raised to the artillery position, and what would the position that was bombarded by the 120mm mortar high-explosion grenade look like?
If it is the center of the shell point, there is no trace of people.
Within 20 meters, you will definitely be killed by shock waves, and then you may be torn to pieces by shrapnel.
The reason why there are still living people is that the artillery position was not hit by the shells, but the shells fell around the artillery position, and the shrapnel shock waves directly ravaged the artillery position.
However, the mortars are still there, and there are still people in the artillery, but many people are dead, with more than 30 people, 2/3 of them dead.
There are many positions that were directly torn by shrapnel. While looking at the broken palm, you will see a broken thigh and a thigh.
There may be an ear or eyeball there.
Of course, there were also those who died there, with seven holes bleeding and all the organs in their stomachs were broken.
There are only a few who are still alive.
But even if the living person is not injured in the internal organs of the body, he will still be confused.
Both of them were blown off their legs and pulled out their pistols on their waists to commit suicide. Anyway, they can't kill the enemy anymore, so they might as well commit suicide and start over again. Isn't there a chance of death twice? The main reason is that the broken leg hurts too much.
However, they failed to commit suicide, and the nurses took out a gun and took out a medical bag to stop bleeding and bandages and carried away. The person who used to be unable to even unscrew a drink bottle cap at home, two people carried a wounded person and actually ran very fast.
At this time, behind the fierce battle, someone was having a ghost idea.
Representatives of two African countries, as well as South Koreans and Indians, totaling eight people.
