Chapter 719: Two Artillery Takes Out Half of the Wehrmacht

During the War of Liberation, the method of using mortar shells to deliver explosive packs was created to increase the power of ordinary mortar shells, which were used for attacking fortifications and long-distance blasting. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After the liberation, on this basis, the mortar was further developed, in addition to firing ordinary shells, a very special kind of shells were also created: called "long shells" and "long artillery grenades", which were so powerful that they could be compared to heavy howitzers!

If it is used well and the occasion is appropriate, the lethality of the shells fired by the heavy howitzer is greater!

The full length of the "long shell" is very long, even longer than the mortar body: the length of the long bullet used with the Type 87 82 mm mortar is more than one meter four!

The body of the projectile is not cast in ductile iron, but with cold-drawn seamless steel pipes, and under the condition of meeting the launch intensity, the body of the projectile can be made as thin as possible to contain more explosives.

The front end of the projectile body has an external thread, which is connected with the head screw when used as a long bullet alone, and can also be connected with the long grenade warhead to form a long gun grenade.

The long projectile has a total mass of more than 9 kg, a charge of 1.5 kg, and a maximum range of 1200 meters.

Connecting a warhead called a "grenade" with a larger caliber to the head of the long war, this is called a "long grenade"!

The "Artillery Grenade" has two types of warheads, the same weight of the anti-personnel and explosive warheads, this artillery crew uses anti-personnel warheads, the outer diameter of 110 mm, the "Grenade" body is made of rare earth ductile iron, containing 2.4 kg of Ladder Naphthalene-42 explosives, which are detonated by the TNT explosive column.

Pull the hair, can not be forced.

After the two mortars were loaded into place, the gunner knelt and pulled the firing rope at the end of the gun, and with a "bang", the two mortars fired at the same time!

The accuracy of the long artillery grenade is not high, and the maximum range is only 1100 meters, this is because the unit is too long, the stability is not good, and the weight is too large!

But if the accuracy is poor, it depends on the distance!

The straight line was just 300 meters away from the place where the cars and people were gathered on the other side of the strait, and after the two "big heads and long iron rods" in the air rose to the highest point, they smashed down to the target!

If it were daytime, you would be able to see the trajectory of a slow-flying shell of an alarming length, but now it's the second half of the night and you can't see it.

The gunners didn't have the idea of reloading the shells at all, and the gun squad leader was busy checking the situation on the opposite side with binoculars: it was not that the quality was poor, but that he was confident that he should not need to reload!

During the training, I had seen the terrifying power of many long artillery grenades, and the three or four hundred Gambian soldiers on the opposite side were basically crowded within a radius of sixty or seventy meters, and two shells were enough!

The poor quality is the Gambian army on the other side, which should have heard the sound of mortar fire coming from the other side of the strait, and there was no dodging action at all.

In fact, it is useless to dodge: although it is an old-fashioned timing fuse, not an inductive new color, because of the short range, both grenades exploded in the air at a height of about ten meters near the projection position in the center of the target area!

Two flames exploded...

"it!"

All the guys with telescopes and night vision devices were stunned by what they saw!

Cruel!

A mortar shell exploded a meter or two away around him, and this man could still walk like a fly?

That's making a TV movie!

The true god of war is no joke!

In an instant, the three or four hundred Gambian soldiers and twenty or so cars on the opposite side were like being covered and swept away by a rain of steel!

After a few seconds, I saw that there was no one standing on the other side, and I didn't take the initiative to lie down

, but to blow up!

Two special 82-mm artillery shells unique to China reimbursed almost half of the Wehrmacht of the "No. 1 military power on the planet"!

Training is training, not comparable to actual combat: the hundreds of people on the opposite side have lost their combat effectiveness if they don't die, and the group of former American GIs here are a little stunned. Fortunately, Zhang Zhenjin participated in the Battle of the Two Mountains and saw many actual combat shelling of long artillery grenades with old Type 67 82mm mortars.

Vietnamese monkeys are cunning and will not be bombed in piles, but the terrifying power of special shells can be regarded as seen: two long-distance shells hit relatively off, and as a result, several Vietnamese monkeys were knocked down seventy or eighty meters away from the detonation point!

This time it's almost "the bull's-eye", and everyone here can make some coffee and play poker next......

Two artillery guns knocked out half of a country's army, and then a hair!

You can wash and sleep.

The operation to support Banjul was completely destroyed by the shelling, and Zhang Zhenjin and his subordinates could relax, leaving seven or eight observation posts while the others rested in place.

On the other side of the strait, six or seven kilometres to the east, a rigid high-speed assault boat numbered 05 is patrolling to prevent the Gambian army from the mainland from supporting Banjul, and at the same time working with another assault boat two nautical miles away to prevent the escape of ships in the port of Banjul.

The captain and assault squad leader was Hu Xiaoping, a 27-year-old reinstated soldier of the Chinese Navy, and the No. 1 machine gunner was his old comrade-in-arms and fellow countryman Yao Sifu.

The two were from the same town, joined the army at the age of 18 and served on a landing ship together, were demobilized at the age of 25, and were recruited to the United States as "security guards" in the same year.

Hu Xiaoping has a high level of culture and is also smarter, while Yao Sifu is much more honest and generally listens to the former.

The situation will be more complicated: two small mobile sampans are driving out four or five hundred meters away, and it is not clear whether the other party is from the Gambian army.

The speed of the assault was not fast, the wind was calm, and the throttle push rod in Hu Xiaoping's hand did not go up, and it was only ten knots.

At full speed, those machine guns are ornaments.

"Captain, do you want to fight?"

Yao Sifu asked loudly.

Hu Xiaoping hadn't opened his mouth yet, but the two boats in front of him had fired first!

Tracer bullets flew around, but looking at the trajectory, the bullets would fly at least ten or twenty meters away.

Without the captain's order, Yao Sifu pressed the trigger in the moonlight, and the three-barreled 12.7mm Gatling machine gun was operated at a rate of fire of 2,000 rounds per minute, scraping the bullets towards the target like a waterfall!

The sound can't be heard at all, "bang, bang", it's like a gust of wind!

In five or six seconds, about 160 or 70 powerful 12.7 mm warheads were launched, and even if the accuracy on the boat was not high, there would be at least thirty or fifty hits for the boat!

Just a second after Yao Sifu fired, the M134 machine gun operated by the second machine gunner also aimed at the second small boat and opened fire.

Even if the rate of fire is adjusted to 3,000 rounds per minute, it will be a terrifying steel storm!

The same continuous shooting of a few seconds will stop, and if you continue to fight, it will be a complete kill!

To be on the safe side, the No. 3 gunner fired several more 35-millimeter grenades at each of the two boats that were starting to catch fire, and then Hu Xiaoping drove the assault forward and moved forward.

There are no more people alive on the two dinghys!

The one attacked by the M134 was okay, it looked like it would take a few minutes to completely sink, and the dozen or so corpses on it could at least be seen as humans.

As for the other one...... If Hu Xiaoping hadn't accelerated just now, it is estimated that the ship would be almost out of sight now!

A boatload of stumps and minced meat, 12.7 mm tracer bullets, incendiary bombs and high-explosive shells, a motorized boat against a dozen people is a rifle to beat sparrows, no good meat!
