Chapter Seventy-Five: A Mortar for Each Man
Not only that, in order to suppress the firepower of the Vietnamese army, the soldiers of the reconnaissance team adjusted the Type 78 design method to burst fire, and all of them fought heartily, although they caused serious casualties to the Vietnamese army, but the bullets they carried also decreased sharply.
Wu Tianming knew that he could not continue to consume like this, although the Vietnamese army he faced suffered serious losses, but it was far from the extent of breaking his muscles and bones, and if he fought with the Vietnamese army, he would run out of ammunition and food in the end, and it was like a way to eliminate the Vietnamese army in front of him as soon as possible, but what method did the enemy and us use.
Just when Wu Tianming was at a loss, Gu Zelin replaced the magazine that Wu Tianming handed him, then put the gun on the ground, pulled the trigger and fired two shots, and then stopped:
"Company commander, let's dismantle the gun and hang the grenade launcher, shoot close to the ground, not to mention the height of the gun, it's still a little heavy!"
At this time, Wu Tianming was thinking while shooting, and when he heard Gu Zelin's words, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly grinned:
"Aha, why didn't I expect that the gun will be hung with a grenade launcher, Xiao Gu, good boy, go back and give you a credit!" In fact, it is not that Wu Tianming couldn't think of it, but in this rapidly changing battlefield, the tense atmosphere and the enemy's attack will make a person's nerves highly tense, so that things that could have been at his fingertips have become rusty at this time, but fortunately, Gu Zelin's words made Wu Tianming react instantly.
However, Gu Zelin, who was shooting, didn't hear Wu Tianming's words clearly, and couldn't help asking: "Company commander, what did you say?" Saying that, Gu Zelin fired three shots at the rising Vietnamese army, beating the Vietnamese soldier so that he didn't dare to raise his head, and then continued:
"Can it be dismantled or not?"
"Dismantle it, keep it for Lao Tzu, and let this group of monkeys dance later!" Wu Tianming said as he said it, and his tone changed and he ordered several soldiers of the reconnaissance team:
"Adjust to three bursts, then keep an eye on it, remember where the monkeys are hiding, and then listen to my orders"
"Yes!"
Wu Tianming's slowdown in their rate of fire, the most direct feeling is the Vietnamese army surrounding them, from the initial downpour, to the current continuous point shooting, even the recruits who have just entered the battlefield can guess that the ammunition of the Chinese scouts on the opposite side is about to run out, and as a person who has killed all the way from the Vietnam War, of course, knows better.
Although the point fire of this reconnaissance team is also very strong, and the accuracy is much higher than before, but compared with the previous fierceness, it has been greatly reduced, the Vietnamese are veterans of the war, and they know that this time is the best time for them to attack, Nguyen Minh Triet of course knows it well, so he ordered the Vietnamese soldiers around him:
"The third squad suppressed the fire, and the fourth squad alternately covered and took them down for me in one fell swoop!"
The same order was issued from Le Van Dong at the rear of the reconnaissance detachment, and then the Vietnamese soldiers of the two squads advanced alternately forward in a double triangle formation in front of and behind the reconnaissance detachment, while the Vietnamese soldiers in charge of fire support gathered the AK-47M and thought that the reconnaissance detachment would open heavy fire.
Although their firepower is very large, but the accuracy is not enough, so the impact on the reconnaissance team hiding in the ditch is not great, so they can also carry out a strong blockade, so the advance speed of the Vietnamese soldiers is not very fast, but these fire suppression has greatly alleviated the front of the Vietnamese position.
Ruan Minh Zhe also took this opportunity to come out, picked up the binoculars and looked at the Chinese soldiers not far away, he wanted to figure out what new weapons these Chinese used, crushing them so badly, but looking up at their clothes, they were dressed the same as he remembered, 65 military uniforms, with red five-star cockades, and square bedding on their backs.
However, when Ruan Mingzhe saw the gun in the hands of the reconnaissance team, his originally calm heart couldn't help but chuckle, because he had never seen this firearm, so that he couldn't believe his eyes when he looked at it for the first time, so he put down the binoculars, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then looked again, yes, the eyes did not deceive themselves, the Chinese hands did indeed hold a new gun:
Different from the AK series is not the M16 series in the United States, let alone European goods, it is a new firearm that is different from any firearm in the world, with a dark appearance, handsome lines, quite a strong shape, and a long round iron pipe connected to the front sight at the muzzle, which is very special.
On the receiver cover of the gun is a strange row of rail-like things, on which a scope is mounted, and under the barrel is a stubby metal tube, which is what makes the whole gun appear both rough and wild, all exuding a unique tough beauty.
"Could this be the new gun of the Chinese? When did they develop it?" After seeing all this, Ruan Mingzhe couldn't help but put down the binoculars, his expression was a little wooden, and his mouth kept chanting, he didn't believe it, to be precise, he couldn't believe it, in his impression, China's military equipment was backward, China's military industry was even more dilapidated, not to mention the development of new guns, even repairing guns was very reluctant.
However, everything in front of him was like a slap in the face, and the Chinese not only developed a new gun, but judging from the situation of the exchange of fire just now, the performance of this new gun can no longer be described as excellent; they can suppress an entire company of themselves with just three or five guns, and such performance is enough to throw AK-47M out of eight streets; if it were not for the lack of ammunition of this reconnaissance detachment, their company would not have eaten them, and if they did not make it, they would have lost their combat effectiveness.
This is just a Chinese reconnaissance detachment, if it is a platoon, a company, a battalion thinking of this, Ruan Minh Triet can't help but shudder, cold sweat unconsciously ran down his cheeks, an inexplicable fear came to his heart again, an unprecedented premonition slowly grew in his mind, and then infected the entire brain like a virus, and this premonition was nothing else, it was his prediction of the prospect of this war -- they Vietnamese would be completely defeated.
Just when Ruan Mingzhe was thinking about China's new firearms as if he was wandering out of the world, there was a loud "boom!" not far from him, and Ruan Mingzhe lay down, but his eardrum contracted rapidly inward, and there was a radio frequency hopping sound in his mind:
"Squeak~~~Buzz~~~"
When he raised his head, he found that four or five Vietnamese soldiers who were less than 20 meters away for fire support had fallen on their backs, some of their faces were covered with blood, some were rolling on the ground with their exposed intestines, some were lying quietly on the ground with broken hands and feet, and some were motionless, but everyone's faces were extremely painful, and their mouths were open as if they were shouting in pain, but Nguyen Minh Triet's ears were full of "buzzing" sounds, even if they knew that they were shouting, they couldn't hear anything.
"Comrade Company Commander, Comrade Company Commander ~~~" A Vietnamese soldier covered in blood beside Nguyen Minh Traet shook him desperately, which made him sober up:
"Comrade company commander, they have mortars, mortars ~~"
"Boom~~!" Before the soldier could finish speaking, a piece of ammunition exploded again in the place where it had exploded before, and after a burst of smoke, the Vietnamese soldiers who had been shouting no longer made a sound, leaving only a piece of minced meat! Not only on the position, but also the Vietnamese troops who attacked were also bombarded in the same way, and the entire offensive was instantly disintegrated, leaving only the wounded Vietnamese soldiers rolling in pain on the ground!
The same thing happened to the Vietnamese troops behind the flank of the reconnaissance team, and as the commander here, Le Van Dong really saw the whole process of the Chinese soldiers filling from the metal tube under the barrel of the gun, refusing to fire, and even exploding, and he also wanted to follow the gap between the Chinese soldiers' firing to counterattack, but the firing and refusal of the ammunition are almost the same action, even if the firing interval organizes people to rush over, they will be repelled by the shooters who have already prepared the posture of holding the gun.
Looking at the scarred and ineffective Vietnamese army, and the explosions around him from time to time, Li Wentong completely fell into despair and kept shaking his head:
"Impossible, impossible, the Chinese have a mortar in their hands, this is absolutely impossible"
"Boom~~" Before Li Wentong finished speaking, an ammunition exploded not far from him, he couldn't help but feel a shock to his body, and his lower body felt a boiling liquid flowing out, but this feeling was only for a short moment, because after that, his eyes rolled upwards and his whole head was dark
"Company commander, your trick is really amazing!" Gu Zelin had already used the gun-mounted grenade launcher to shoot three rounds, and watching the Vietnamese army in front of him fall like wheat harvesting, the young soldier couldn't suppress the excited look on his face.
"If it weren't for this thing, how could we turn defeat into victory so easily!" Wu Tianming said, took out a 40mm grenade from his body, quickly loaded it into the breech, and then picked up the firearm, through the sights on the grenade launcher on the gun, aimed at the few stubborn Vietnamese soldiers in front of him, only to hear the sound of "bang!"
A 40mm grenade with a fine smoke and dust, rushed towards the Vietnamese army, and after a while, I heard a "boom!" explosion, the 40mm grenade accurately hit the few Vietnamese soldiers who were resisting, and then the flesh and blood flew sideways, and the screams were endless
"Haha, it's another firepower point, this gun is really a good thing!" Seeing that another Vietnamese soldier was killed or wounded, Gu Zelin's face was even more excited, but he needed to cover Wu Tianming, otherwise he had to jump, even so, he patted the Type 78 firearm with a smile:
"Lu Jiadong, who developed this set of things, is really amazing, if it weren't for him, we would have finished this time!"
"Yes!" Wu Tianming, who finished shooting the grenade, listened to Gu Zelin's words, and responded with emotion, then looked at the clear and cloudless sky, the corners of his mouth opened slightly, and said lightly:
"Jiadong, thank you!"
