Chapter 197: Shelling

Chapter 197: Shelling

A few minutes later, Heights 169 was also lost, which also put us on Heights 142 under more pressure, and although I soon sent another team of 'shooting' team members to suppress the threat from Heights 169, shells still flew towards us with a frenzied whistling. \

Most of these shells are mortar shells, which is also the cleverness of the Yue devils, because with mortars, they can hide in bunkers and 'fire' at our positions, so there is no need to worry about our snipers at all. What gave me even more of a headache was that the Vietnamese troops on the high ground on both sides quickly organized infantry to charge at us, which forced me to divide my forces into three parts and defend them in three directions.

But even so, I still didn't let the artillery unit open fire, because there weren't enough Vietnamese reinforcements coming out.

It should be said that the Vietnamese reinforcements are advancing very fast, their tanks are all driving at full speed in front of the rampaging all the way, followed by the Vietnamese troops either by car or running, and many even directly by tank. However, at this time, the mouth of the valley was too narrow, so that after a long time, there were still not many Vietnamese troops crossing the mouth of the valley.

Maybe my heart is a little too big, in fact, I should say that there are a lot of those Vietnamese soldiers, but people are like this, when it is beneficial to themselves, they will hope for a little more, a little more, just like no one will ever be afraid of more money......

"Boom!" With a single shot, a shell landed accurately in our trenches, and in an instant, several soldiers were beaten and rolled out of the trenches, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead.

The fire threat of the Vietnamese troops on both flanks to us soon came into play, and our firepower was suppressed by the Vietnamese army to a certain extent, and the firepower of the Vietnamese army attacking frontally rose to a certain extent, which can be seen from the casualties of our army and the continuous advance of the Vietnamese army's battle line.

But I still gritted my teeth and endured, I know very well the strength of this special reconnaissance group under my command, I know that they will not compromise with the enemy at any time, will not retreat at any time, and I also believe that they can completely block the attack of these enemies in front of me. So I gritted my teeth and pulled the trigger to send bullets into the enemy's chest, knocking them to the ground one by one......

Finally, when the tank unit of the Vietnamese reinforcements was only a few hundred meters away from us, I turned around and shouted to the signal soldier next to me: "Release! ”

"Put!" The communications corps was quick to relay my orders.

Almost at the moment when the communications soldiers shouted, there was a rocket characteristic "whooshing ......" sound in the sky, and then we only heard a deafening "jade" sound of "boom boom boom ......", and our feet seemed to be slammed with a heavy hammer for a violent shock, and then a raging fire broke out 500 meters away from the front of our defensive position, and most of the reinforcements who had just crossed the valley mouth were burned to ashes by this fire before they could react in a hurry.

As far as the eye can see, the Vietnamese tanks have turned into a blazing fireball, the cars have been blown apart, the trees are full of Vietnamese corpses and various organs, and there are still many Vietnamese soldiers covered in fire on the ground crying and howling, some are lying on the ground and rolling, some are waving their arms and 'chaotic' running and jumping, and the uninjured part is pouring back to Qingshuikou like a 'tide'......

Everyone was stunned, this was the case with our army, and the same was true with the Vietnamese army.

Although my soldiers were mentally prepared for this, they never imagined that a salvo of our army's rocket artillery would be so powerful, and in just a few seconds, the hilly area seven kilometers long and three kilometers wide in front of us turned into a sea of fire.

Not to mention the Vietnamese army, it is said that the Vietnamese army's special forces have achieved such great results in our army's troops, which is to blow up artillery positions and blow up highway bridges, so the Vietnamese army originally thought that our army's artillery fire would be great if it was at most a symbol of 'sex', but I didn't expect such a powerful rocket artillery salvo to suddenly appear......

At this moment, both the attacking and defending troops stopped their movements, and seemed to have forgotten that they were still on the battlefield.

At this time, I only felt my own insignificance in my heart, because compared to the scene in front of me, what we were fighting for was nothing at all. More than 100 of my men and I fought for our lives to defend this small high ground, but the artillery unit only needed one order to cover an area of several tens of square kilometers.

However, what shocked our army and the Vietnamese troops was far more than these, the rocket artillery salvo 'fire' just passed through the air followed by the whistling of artillery shells, and then another piece of artillery exploded on the land where the rockets had just exploded, 85 cannons, 122 howitzers, 100 mortars and 152 howitzers, etc., all kinds of large and small artillery were all bombarded at the valley surrounded by Daliang Mountain, Qingning Mountain and Faka Mountain in front of our army's position, and the near bullet impact point was only 200 meters away from the front of our position, and the far one hit Daliang Mountain. Qingning Mountain ...... Later, I learned that in addition to bombarding us in front of us, our artillery fire had also launched a devastating 'sexual' bombardment of the Vietnamese army's artillery positions in depth.

After a burst of artillery fire covered the shells, there was no intention of stopping at all, and they fought back and forth from front to back and from back to front on that valley, and forcibly used shells to form a wall of fire in front of us to isolate the Vietnamese troops in front of us, and the follow-up troops of the Vietnamese army were so dead that they could not move.

Only after the war did I learn that for this ambush, our artillery unit had already set up an artillery bombardment plan of "luring sheep into the enclosure, intercepting them in sections, closing the 'door' and beating dogs, and striving for total annihilation."

Needless to say, "luring sheep into the encirclement" is actually my decision to "lure" the Vietnamese army into the encirclement and into our army's defensive zone. The so-called "sectional interception" means using our army's powerful artillery firepower to completely 'disrupt' the Vietnamese army's battle formation, so that it cannot take care of each other; "closing the 'door' and beating the dog" means sealing the valley water mouth at the mouth of the gorge with all kinds of artillery fire, so that the follow-up troops of the Vietnamese army cannot enter the reinforcements, and the Vietnamese troops that have already entered the canyon cannot enter back and forth; "Seeking annihilation" means using artillery fire to cooperate with infantry to basically annihilate the Vietnamese troops entering the gorge in this central area.

In accordance with this strategic principle, our army used two artillery regiments to make every effort in the valley and valley area, so that "not a single Vietnamese army outside could enter, and not a single Vietnamese army within it could get out"; with an artillery regiment to support our infantry in battle; Two artillery regiments and five rocket artillery battalions were used to carry out repeated combing-style 'shooting' attacks on the front of our defensive positions; three small-caliber artillery battalions were used to carry out high-density bombardment of depressions, hills, and anti-slope areas......

This is how the two artillery divisions and five rocket artillery battalions of the artillery unit were used, and after knowing this, I realized that the artillery assistance of the artillery unit was not so simple, and it was only necessary to know the coordinates and directions, and it was also necessary to carry out a reasonable distribution and division of firepower.

Of course, that's all for later, but we didn't care about it that much, because the battle started again soon after we were stunned for a few minutes.

I don't know who fired the first shot, but both sides of the 'warring' war understand one thing, then we can't stop fighting just because the cannon is blowing up in front of us.

This cannon was undoubtedly good news for our army, because it captured all the reinforcements and hopes of the Vietnamese army, making the Vietnamese army in front of us a lone army. However, for the Vietnamese army, it was just the opposite, they were still determined to win and wanted to attack our army's position, who knew that in just a few minutes, the battlefield situation had changed 180 degrees, and the current Vietnamese army seemed to have lost a certain ......

However, the Vietnamese army did not admit defeat, not only did not admit defeat, but roared loudly, and groups of three or five guns rushed towards our army's position at a faster speed. In the past, the Vietnamese army also paid attention to some tactics and the coordination of various firepowers, but now they seem to be rushing towards our position in a disorderly swarm.

After the war, some soldiers were puzzled by this kind of battalion and company group charge of the Vietnamese army, and they thought that it was a very stupid act, because this kind of group charge proved useless not long after the invention of the machine gun, not to mention the fact that the individual weapon had been developed to 47.

But I understand this approach of the Vietnamese army, in fact, the Vietnamese army has no way to retreat, behind them is a wall of fire formed by our army's artillery fire, in front of which is a condescending infantry position of our army, plus they also know that our army reinforcements will arrive soon, so they don't have so much time to pay attention to tactics and concealment...... They have only one way, that is, to take our positions as soon as possible and then build a defensive line, and only in this way can they block the attack of our reinforcements.

Or it can also be said that the sudden burst of artillery fire from our army has 'disrupted' all the plans of the Vietnamese army and made them 'chaotic'......

What makes me feel a little ridiculous is that at this time, only the high ground we are stationed on is still firmly in the hands of our army, and it is precisely because of this that we have become an obstacle to the Vietnamese army's construction of a defensive line, and it has become a gap in their defensive line, so we have naturally become a thorn in their side......

"Hit!" Of course, I would not be polite to the Vietnamese army's suicidal large-scale charge, shouting over the radio and pulling the trigger of the rifle.

The soldiers also raised their guns and pulled the triggers to 'shoot' at their targets, and the Vietnamese troops fell in front of us in pieces, and rushed up again and again, like the rising tide of the sea, one after another.

I fired only two shots and was no longer interested in 'firing' a third bullet, because I felt that it was not a war, but a massacre!
