Chapter 104: Rocket Artillery Shows Its Might Again The Persian army surrendered

The commander of the rocket artillery division was heard saying that if they advanced for an hour, they could cover the camp of the Persian deserters with rocket artillery. Li Kui scolded with a smile: "You fucking think that they are all wooden stakes and will wait for you for an hour." They're running for their lives right now and won't be waiting for you for a moment! ”

Ning De listened to them, kept looking at the map and didn't speak, when a staff officer next to him said, "Do I have a suggestion that you can talk about?" ”

Li Kui said: "Don't talk nonsense, if you have something to say, say it quickly!" ”

"That's right, the pilot reported that the Persians were hiding in a big ditch with fireworks in it, and I think they were cooking. We can get the rocket artillery division to go in which direction now. General Li Feng, in which direction they will also pursue. The cavalry and automobile corps on our side should also chase after them. There are tens of thousands of Persians, and it will take time to act, maybe we can catch up with them. The staff officer said.

After listening to the staff officer's words, Ning De said, "Okay! Your suggestion is exactly what I want to say, does General Li Kui have any opinions? ”

"Hmmm! He has a point, let's act now and don't delay. Li Kui said affirmatively.

"Well, your rocket artillery division and automobile corps will move immediately. The 2nd Cavalry Corps, the 1st and 2nd Divisions then followed you. Ningde said decisively.

Li Kui said: "General Ning, I'll go with them this time to have a good time!" ”

"Hmmm! It's best for you to unify and coordinate. Ningde said, "Don't delay, let's go immediately!" We stay in touch at all times! ”

Not long after everyone left Ningde's big tent, the captain of the delta wing flight team hurriedly came in. As soon as he entered the house, he shouted: "General Ning, let's go with them as well!" We can support them from the air when we get closer! ”

Ning De smiled and asked, "What?" You can't stand still when you see others moving? ”

"We are close to the enemy, we have absolute superiority from the air, and we have not participated in the battle in Liaodong?"

"Okay! You're moving with the Mechanized Infantry Regiment, and I'm relieved to have them. You're a baby, and you can't afford to slip up. By the way, all three of our planes will participate in the battle, you should be careful to coordinate with them and don't crash together! Ningde said.

"Yes!" The flight captain happily left.

The plane got up early to take off, and spotted them from the air with smoke and fire rising from the shock ditch where the Persians were hiding. The Persians in the ditch fled for a day yesterday in fright, and they were still in a dream. As the plateau blocks out the sun, it is lit later here.

If you wake up early to cook, you are roasting yesterday's horse meat. They can only eat this one meal today, and they have to run for the whole day. There was nothing to eat on the way. They also knew that after the pursuers cleaned up the battlefield, they were chasing them wildly. No one will pass up the opportunity to expand the results in this situation.

When the men and horses of the kiln gang were chasing after them in the dust that covered the earth, the Persians were dividing the meat of the horses. Rushing towards them were Li Feng's Yaogang cavalry and Mongolian cavalry.

However, Li Feng was a very experienced general, and he did not forget to send a cavalry division in the direction from which the Persians came. He knew that the Persians had not yet had a chance to send back the news of their defeat, and that the Persians would continue to send supplies to the front from afar, and that now was a good opportunity to seize the supplies they had sent.

The special topography of the plateau is just that, with deep layers of clay that are often cut into deep gullies by floods. These ravines are hidden by thousands of troops, and it is not a problem at all.

It is precisely because of this that the Persians dared to send some secret sentries and rested here for the night. They can't do it without rest, and after a fight, they are chased and killed and run desperately before they escape, and they can no longer run. But they didn't expect that the Yaogang people had an airplane and discovered their camp from the air.

The alert Persians ate a little bit of horse meat, did not dare to linger any longer, and set out at once.

However, they were half a step too late. Just as the army in front of them walked out of the deep ditch, they didn't know that the commander of the Yaogang Rocket Artillery Division was already trembling a little with excitement, and commanded the artillery carriage to immediately start preparing to shoot. According to calculations, they ran wild in the wasteland for an hour, and the Persian camp was already within range of their rockets. And the news in the biography of Ningde is that the air force reported that the Persians are still in the ditch.

Direct contact was established between the rocket artillery division and the planes in the air, and the pilots reported bad news that the Persians had already left the storm ditch in front of the leading group. The commander of the rocket artillery division knew that when the Persians left the ditch, the cavalry would run far away, which was not conducive to the concentrated coverage of rocket artillery. At this time, the division commander didn't care about anything else, and personally said to the pilot: "We will immediately conduct a rocket artillery test firing, and ask you to help correct it." ”

"I'm hovering to the west of the target, please start the test firing!" The pilot replied.

With the order of the commander of the rocket artillery division, a ***, dragging white smoke, drew an arc in the dawn sky and flew towards the target, and the result deviated greatly. Despite this ***, it was far from the big ditch where the Persians stayed, and the Persians didn't know what was flying, they knew that their target was exposed, so they accelerated to rush out of the ditch. But there are too many people, and the more crowded they are, the more they can't get out.

After another calibration of the Yaogang rocket artillery, the commander of the rocket artillery division asked the pilot to know through the radio that all the officers and men of the Yaogang army were far away from the target area.

After being confirmed that there were no our troops in the target area, the division commander picked up the radio and ordered: "All of them, two salvos, fire!" ”

Now it is equipped with rocket artillery that has been improved by the experience of the Liaodong battlefield, and each vehicle has 24 tubes, and the original plan was 36 tubes, but the load of the car is too large, and the off-road ability is poor, so in the end, a compromise is adopted, and each vehicle adopts 24 tubes.

Rocket artillery division, equipped with forty-eight launchers. These vehicles, together with the attached transport vehicle command vehicle, have a very large launch position in the field. There was a cavalry battalion that guarded them on all sides.

When the 48 rocket launchers were launched together, the smoke suddenly enveloped the launch site. The cavalry on guard around had never seen this earth-shattering scene, and the horses were all so shocked that they were "restored" and screamed, and the cavalry was desperate to hold the horses.

Forty-eight vehicles, each with twenty-four tubes, had one salvo of 1,152 shells, and two salvos of 2,306 shells.

According to the pilot's report, the shock ditch was very long, and the rocket artillery division, with two salvos, covered a rectangular area, essentially covering the shock ditch camp.

In the deep ditch, two 1,152 rounds exploded at the same time, giving full play to the power of rocket artillery. Not only the warhead but also the unburned *** exploded at the same time, burning out all the oxygen in the covered area at the same time, and all living creatures in the area, if not killed, should also die of suffocation or inhalation of hot air.

From the sky, the pilot saw that in the explosion area, after a firelight and smoke, a spectacular mushroom cloud soon rose. The mushroom cloud churned and kept rising. The planes were shaken by the air currents.

Originally, the Persians avoided yesterday's pursuit and safe escape for a night, they felt that as long as they got out of this ditch today, they would encounter the pursuers, and they had war horses, and it was not very easy for the Ming army to catch up with them, and the hope of escaping from the dangerous place today was very great.

Strict military discipline made it so that when they set out, they all set off in accordance with their movements and in an orderly manner. Everything is still in order, and despite yesterday's crushing defeat, the well-trained Persian soldiers have recovered their military self-confidence from the operation. They knew that this defeat was very strange, and summed up that the reason for the defeat was the generals' business, and the lower-level officers and soldiers only had to abide by military discipline.

However, not long after the departure of the vanguard army, there was a roar, followed by an explosion, and a shell of the Ming army that flew over with a sound exploded on the bank of the ditch, and then another shell fell into the ditch and exploded. The officers and soldiers in the ditch, although they did not understand the specific situation, they knew that this place was discovered by the Ming army, and the Ming army's soul-shattering shells were about to fall again. The officers and soldiers in the ditch desperately wanted to rush out, but they hit the ditch mouth with a small belly and a big belly, and the more they squeezed, the more they couldn't get out. Their troubles soon came to an end, though. With the sound of rolling thunder, a shining star flew towards them in the sky. Then there was a violent explosion everywhere, those who were not killed, desperately wanted to shout, but they couldn't make a sound, their chests wanted to explode, they couldn't breathe, and the war horses also fell to the ground and kicked their legs and died.

The air was blazing, everything was burning, and the linen and cloth on the officers and men, dead and alive, had turned into charcoal. The steel armor also sank into the ripe flesh.

The ditch became a purgatory. The commander-in-chief of the Persians had just followed the brigade out of the impact ditch, and before he had gone far, the rocket artillery of the Yaogang people covered the impact ditch. The commander-in-chief knew that under such artillery bombardment, tens of thousands of people in the ditch would not survive, and the commander-in-chief, who was mad, rushed into the ditch with his horse, and he didn't want to live anymore, he really couldn't stand seeing his tens of thousands of officers and soldiers trapped in purgatory like this. But the officers and men of the guard held him to death. Tell him that there are so many brothers who rush out that he needs to command.

The commander-in-chief, who calmed down a little, knew that the place was shelled, and the pursuers must not be far away. Based on experience, he knew that he could still have more than 10,000 people in the army, which was a great luck, and if it was a little later, he was afraid that they would all be blown up and killed in the ditch. At this time, the commander-in-chief was full of fear for the Ming army. He ordered the army to move quickly at once, and if it was too late, it would not be able to leave.

These more than 10,000 cavalry, most of them Georgian cavalry, were the personal soldiers of Emperor Abbas, the elite of the empire, and the commander-in-chief desperately wanted to bring them back.

He ran east for a while, then south, south of the Persian plateau, in the direction of their home. However, it was uphill to the south, and soon the speed slowed down. Since yesterday, their war horses have only been picking some grass around by themselves, and they can't meet the needs of high-intensity running at all.

They could already see the smoke and dust kicked up by the pursuers.

You must not stop at this time, otherwise you will either be killed or taken prisoner. These Georgians resolutely refused to be taken prisoner and desperately fought their horses forward. But suddenly, there was a buzzing sound in the sky.

They looked up and saw a strange flock of big birds flying in the sky, and when the big birds came closer, they saw a man with black glasses sitting on the big bird. This is something that most of them have never seen before, and it is not known if it is an angel or a devil. It's hard to see them alive. When the delta-wing pilot threw a lot of ** and **** on his head, they knew that it was neither the devil nor the angel who came, but the Ming army.

A blow from heaven is absolutely fatal. They can't run away from the sky, and the Persians simply don't run and wait for the sky to throw ** at them.

The Persian commander-in-chief knew that this would not work, and shouted and scattered.

The Persians were right in this way, the evacuation came, and the ** effect dropped on the delta wing was much worse. But the delta-wing pilots were also bullies, and they flew low and chased many cavalrymen, approached them, and shot at them with pistols. One by one, they knocked the Persians off their horses.

After a while, the voice of the pilot of the plane came from inside the delta wing pilot's headset, asking them to get out of the way and give the plane a chance.

The plane, which had corrected the shots of the rocket artillerymen, ran out of fuel and flew back. The other two planes came out to join in the fun.

The two planes took turns to dive and fire at the Persian cavalry, which caused a great deterrent to the Persian cavalry. Restrained their attempts to escape. Later, the people brought by Li Feng and Li Kui caught up.

After the two planes were gone, thirty delta wings rose into the air and flew over the heads of the Persians.

When the people of the kiln came immediately, they surrounded the Persians in the middle.

When the Persians saw that they could not escape, they did not stop. This is the first time that he has been able to face the Ming army face-to-face in the three days since he sent out his troops. Not only did the commander-in-chief of the Persian Empire army fight to the death if he wanted to make peace, but the Georgian cavalry, who were fierce and eager to fight, also wanted to use their scimitars to meet the Ming army. These 2,000 brave cavalrymen formed a square formation and rushed towards the Ming army that had just joined them to the south. But the delta wing flying team, which made them helpless, lined up in the air and launched an attack on them. The ** dropped in the air exploded in their ranks, greatly affecting their confidence. But after a dive of the delta wing in the air, there was a squeak of "squeak" in the air, and then a dense mortar shell fell on their ranks, and the horses that had just rushed up were blown over one by one, but the Georgian cavalry, who did not care about their fallen brothers, the cavalrymen who did not die, shouted and brandished their scimitars and rushed forward, eager to prove with their scimitars that they were fearless warriors, to the shame of the snow for several days.

However, Yaogang also had its own military orders, although the cavalry also wanted to use their sharp Yaogang sabers to prove their abilities, but they did not dare, the Yaogang military orders stipulated that cavalry and infantry were absolutely not allowed to use white-knuckle combat to settle the battle unless they had to. In order to prevent generals at all levels from being heroes, the military order specifically emphasized this article. Therefore, the Georgian cavalry, which had been baptized by mortar shells, faced a dense rain of bullets, and it took only ten minutes for 2,000 cavalrymen to get off their horses.

Although the commander-in-chief of the Persians was not convinced, he understood that he could not go today. These two thousand cavalry are the absolute elite of the Persian Empire, and each of them can be an instructor in other armies, and they are immediately proficient in swordsmanship. But no matter how skilled they are, they don't have a chance to use it!

The siege was completed, and the Persians were no longer so impulsive. The loudspeaker of the kiln was like a voice from the sky, which shook the officers and soldiers of the Persian Imperial Army, still in Persian, "Heroes of the Persian Imperial Army!" As soldiers, you went to the battlefield for the sake of your country and your majesty, and now you have completed your mission. Your defeat is irreversible, and it is not your fault! Nor is it up to you to take responsibility. Needless resistance will be useless except for bloodshed and sacrifice in vain. Now is the time for you to think about your family, it's time to think for yourself! ……”

The psychological warfare detachment of the Yaogang people has already used the psychological warfare methods skillfully, and they will produce very suitable propaganda content according to the specific situation. Even Li Kui listened to the introduction of this radio and praised the good publicity.

At this time, such propaganda was very lethal, and the Persian commander-in-chief listened to it, in addition to scolding the Ming army for being despicable, he also admired the Ming army. The Ming army not only has tactical weapons, but also has a very effective use of various tactics, although he has not fully understood what is going on in this battle, but now he is completely convinced.

The monsters emitting black smoke from the Ming army came up again. In fact, this is not a kiln gun truck, but a four-wheel drive car, and the heavy machine gun on the car is simply too powerful. The entire Persian army was in a commotion at the sight of these monsters. The commander-in-chief of the Persians understood that his officers and soldiers were frightened by this thing. As long as this thing keeps an eye on itself, it can't run away on a horse until it is killed.

After the kiln people broadcast again, the commander-in-chief understood that after the opponent's last warning, the next thing was massacre. At this time, the commander-in-chief ordered the officers and soldiers around him: "I order you, dismount and surrender!" ”

In fact, the officers and soldiers all know that the current situation is that if you don't surrender, you will die, and they want to hear his words.

One by one, the officers and men dismounted, took off their scimitars, and placed them on the ground. Li Kui originally thought that since these guys did not surrender, they would launch an attack to destroy them after a cannon fire.

A staff officer put down his binoculars and said, "General Lee, the Persians have surrendered!" ”

"Hmm!" Li Kui picked up the binoculars and saw that the Persians were very disciplined, dismounted and stacked their weapons together, and went back to stand in line. He knew that the Persians had really surrendered.

Seeing that his officers and soldiers had put their weapons in place, the Persian commander-in-chief drew his scimitar and wiped it from his neck. At this time, the captain of the guard beside him waved his hand to stop him, and snatched his scimitar, and persuaded: "My lord, you are not to blame for this defeat! We haven't fought the Ming army yet, and we don't know why we were defeated! You can't die! ”

"Hey! The entire empire is destroyed in my hands, I will not die, and I will not have the face to see Your Majesty again! ”

"It's for the sake of the empire and Your Majesty, you should also live, and we must let Your Majesty know how we were defeated! Now you are wronged, Your Majesty knows that you have been captured, and will definitely find a way to ransom you! At that time, you saw that Your Majesty would tell Your Majesty about the situation, and see how Your Majesty will deal with it! ”

"Alas!" The commander-in-chief sighed and was convinced, jumped off his horse and the chief of the guard, and led the horse to meet the Ming army.
