Chapter 044: Helicopter

Wang Baoyi now admires Hong Yan so much. He knows a little more about Hong Yan than those ordinary team members. If Hong Yan said that something was abnormal, then he would wonder if he had missed something important.

As soon as he turned around, he set up a telescope and swept through the inside and out, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal. However, after he unwillingly put down the binoculars, he glanced at the direction of Hong Yan's finger. A small black dot appeared in the sky in the distance, yes, a small black dot. If it weren't for Hong Yan pointing out the direction, he wouldn't have been able to see the black dot in the sky. What is a little black dot? Could it be an eagle or a vulture or something? Wang Baoyi immediately denied it, are there vultures in the southern sky?

He re-set up the binoculars, focused on the focal length, and then said, "Helicopter, helicopter!" However, he quickly stabilized his mood and continued to observe. It's coming towards us, it's time to cross the river! ”

"Did you think we're scouting?" Wang Baoyi asked in a low voice.

"It's possible!" Of course, Hong Yan can think of this. Helicopter search, transport, airborne and fire support have been common in special operations in previous lives. It's just that at this stage, Huaxia does not have its own reliable helicopters, and there is no modern concept of special forces and a special operation model.

"It is estimated that the Vietnamese side has sent high-level troops. A few days ago a medium-sized arsenal was bombed, and they could imagine that it was relatively close to the front line. But dozens of prisoners of war were rescued last night, and in the rear of the enemy, they could not help but consider that Huaxia had sent extraordinary troops to go deeper. Wang Baoyi analyzed, "No wonder the Vietnamese army with two companies did not attack on a large scale, as if they were testing firepower." We're just exposing some light firepower points. They seem to be a little slower to react. ”

"Not slowly. The Tangtang battlefield was on the verge of breaking out, and they did not dare to move troops at will. Dozens of prisoners of war were rescued almost in the palm of their hands, which must have shaken the upper echelons. It has only been more than ten hours, and it has been deployed in place, and the response speed is already very fast. Combined with the offensive forces that the Vietnamese army has already launched, the Vietnamese side has deployed a large number of troops in all directions to encircle and intercept them, and our most difficult moment is approaching. Hong Yan smiled bitterly. Although he is not afraid, it does not mean that he is not worried about the safety of other comrades.

"Yes, the most difficult time is coming, and the time to test us has come." Wang Baoyi showed an excited look and a fighting spirit in his heart. At the age of thirty-four or five, he is in the prime of life, and he has lived in the army for more than ten years, and he also has the blood of a soldier.

"Well, all team members need to be reminded to be observant and vigilant!"

This is the proper way to go. After sending the latest orders to various points through the walkie-talkie, Wang Baoyi temporarily put his mind at ease.

As long as it is not a large army in several directions, step by step, and the iron bucket is encircled, there is always a way to resolve it. The Vietnamese army had to face strong frontal pressure, and there was no surplus force to deal with them, unless they were deployed from the rear.

"Uncle Wang, how is the bunker dug up?" Hong Yan was worried, and he seemed to have a lot to worry about.

"Well, it's been dug up early." Wang Baoyi replied.

The fighters and team members still couldn't understand digging such huge bunkers or dirt pits. Since the deputy captain gave the order, they just carried it out. Qian Jinyu couldn't understand, Wu Honggang couldn't understand, Ge Dawei didn't understand either, and the rescued soldiers were all on the road of charging, and they didn't have time to dig trenches and cat ear holes. This excavation is large, and they are also suspicious. Guo Jinsong and other careful people know that they must have useful intentions.

Hong Yan said: "Think about how to deal with the helicopter in the sky!" ”

Brainstorming or using collective wisdom is a fine tradition. In the face of an air threat that he had never faced, as the highest military commander of the detachment, Wang Baoyi was slightly stunned and resolutely summoned the soldiers back to the medical shelter department for a temporary meeting.

The Chinese army has not shot down enemy planes, and has achieved brilliant results on the peninsula and in Vietnam. The spy planes that shot down Taiwan Island many times in China, including the U-2, a high-altitude spy reconnaissance plane nicknamed "Black Widow" in the United States.

But that was the result of the missile unit or the air defense force or the air force. Such a squad obviously has no good strategy in the face of low-altitude killers.

Of course, Hong Yan knew that in later generations, portable air defense missiles were known as helicopter nemesis. During the war in Afghanistan, the "stinger" supported by the United States gave the former Soviet Union a headache, and then reaped the consequences. However, the "Red Tassel" is being tested. The "Stinger" has just been finalized, and the "Arrow-3" has just been installed. The "blowpipe" is John Niu's, but Hong Yan does not. Hong Yan has "red eyes"2, but no one can use it.

"Let's talk about how to deal with the search and strike of helicopters?" Wang Baoyi got straight to the point.

"What?" "Helicopter" ......

Wang Baoyi's words undoubtedly dropped a pebble on the calm water, and the water splashed everywhere. They apparently did not expect the helicopter to come. Attacks from the ground, they can deal with it, even if they shed blood and sacrifice, they can always bite each other. However, the helicopter is high above, and there is nothing to be desired.

"I'll get a bamboo pole and poke it down!" Qian Jinyu had a big mouth.

"Haha!" Everyone burst out laughing.

"Poke? Monkey, you pull a somersault cloud and kick it down! Gao Bo limped his elbow and smirked.

Hou Chengzhi lay down the gun and glanced at him: "You are a superior person, you can't take it off directly." ”

"Fuck off, bullshit!" Wang Baoyi glanced at the happy crowd and said, "Hurry up and get down to business!" ”

Everyone put away their laughter and returned to the topic.

"We have a Type 58 twin anti-aircraft machine gun originally aided by our country, with a bullet diameter of 14.5, and a Mi domestic M2 Browning 12.7 heavy machine, plus a bracket that can shoot in the air, and our own heavy machine has a small caliber and cannot be used in the air. Therefore, we have limited anti-aircraft weapons, and it is difficult to defend in all directions, so we can only consider completing the deployment in a suitable place......"

"Isn't 40 fire okay?" Suddenly there was a humanity in the crowd.

"Huh!" Everyone instantly turned their heads to look at the person who spoke.

The face of the man who had just spoken was flushed. Perhaps, he made an unintentional mistake. Not to mention the limited range of 40 fires, the tail flame produced when the light is emitted is more than two meters long, and there is not enough room for maneuver, which is tantamount to looking for death.

"After all, there are only two planes, and we will unexpectedly concentrate our firepower to destroy one first, and then deal with the other ......," Guo Jinsong said with a smile.

"The problem is that even if we get the first hit, if we reveal our position, the retaliation from another Hive rocket or heavy machine will come!" Ge Dawei touched his chin and said worriedly.

His fears were rightly founded. Once locked in the air, there is little chance of escape from this terrain and the surrounding situation. If the terrain is complicated or jungle, of course, don't be afraid.

"The fire points are scattered, and the fire is attacked." Wu Honggang proposed an attack strategy.

Wang Baoyi nodded in agreement! This arrangement will not be at least the end of the pot, the helicopter always has to be adjusted when aiming, and the adjustment takes time, and when there is time, it can be unfolded. He noticed that Hong Yan seemed to be very focused, so he named him:

"Hong Yan, what do you think?"

So the people present looked at Hong Yan again.

"Me?!" Hong Yan pointed his little finger at the tip of his nose and said, "You are asking Yu Blind." I don't understand the layout of the battlefield, so what do I think? ”

"What do you think, what do you say!"

It's confirmed, don't say no! "Then I'll give you a little bit of a shallow opinion! Actually, we don't know the purpose of the two helicopters; It's far away, and we can't tell what model it is. If it's just a general reconnaissance type, it doesn't matter, just hit it closer, and if you're lucky, you can beat it down with 56 and a half. As for the helicopter gunship, can it still withstand the bombardment of heavy aircraft? If you are afraid of retaliation, you don't have to go to the battlefield. My opinion is to attack one first. The effective range of the M21 and SVD was good enough to deal with low-flying helicopters, so the other one was up to me and 4 snipers to deal with. ”

"Hey! How could I not have thought of it! Hou Chengzhi slapped his thigh and was the first to express his support.

"That's right! How could it be without us! Two snipers from Squad 12 shouted. If only a sniper could shoot down a helicopter, that's a big achievement!

Hong Yan's proposal for snipers against helicopters was not a whim. In this era, helicopters have not yet been metamorphosed in later generations, and their protection is still relatively weak. During the Vietnam War, Vietnamese snipers had a precedent of shooting down helicopters many times.

There was no better strategy to deal with, and everyone finally reached an agreement, allocated manpower, and clarified the direction and focus of their defense.

"Helicopters are a threat, but we have to be vigilant and careful. People have been fighting for life and death for one or two decades, what the hell! Wang Baoyi warned.

As for what "Dao" is, it is nothing more than the tricks of striking east and west, attacking from both sides, and combining air and ground. The next step is to examine the terrain, firepower and camouflage. Hong Yan returned to the medical shelter to re-examine the wounded who had undergone surgery.

"Thank you, little doctor, we have recovered. Please tell the captain, we need guns, we need to go back to the front, and the battlefield is where we should be! ”

The wounded who spoke was wounded in the abdomen, and when he came back from the rescue, he still had a low-grade fever, but now he is fully awake and has gathered his spirits to ask to go to the battlefield. When he says "we", he means it for himself to be self-explanatory. Sure enough, those wounded had hope, helplessness and even determination in their eyes.

"Huh! Do you think the Captain will agree? You all know for yy, even in the most critical moments, the captain will not agree to your request! The wounded who can go to war are already fighting. Hong Yan said with a smile, "The most important thing you should do at present is to recuperate your wounds with peace of mind, otherwise forcibly bursting the wounds by exercise can only add more work to me and the two health soldiers, and increase the worries of the front-line soldiers...... Maybe, one day it will be transferred, and you will be able to keep up when you are well, right? The captain said that we are comrades-in-arms who share life and death, and we will never abandon or give up......"

"Never abandon it! Never give up! The wounded silently recited the eight words, tears welling up in their eyes. The sensual Han and Lin girls were already crying profusely.

Of course, Hong Yan knew that the original intention of these wounded was to strengthen their defensive forces, to go into battle to wash away the "shame" of being captured, and to "become benevolent". Sweeping his eyes, Hong Yan stepped out of the shelter and thought about whether he should strengthen his defenses.

Wang Baoyi was lying on his stomach in the anti-artillery hole, nervously observing the land of the Vietnamese army in the north. The Vietnamese army quietly moved along the ridge with the help of dead grass and bushes, preparing to charge. Artillery on the opposite high ground busily laid out the land. But, after all, it was daytime, and their every move was clearly observed by the special forces. Their purpose is clear, and they are trying to take advantage of the situation and rush to the high ground in a hurry.
