Chapter 92: How Can You Take the High Ground?

After several days of sniping operations, the special task force killed more than 200 Japanese devils. When the Japanese devils in the rear moved, they only dared to hide in the ironclad car, which dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese devils.

On this day, Wang Yueying received a telegram from Wang Yaowu, saying that his unit had been attacked by the Japanese devil heavy artillery group and had suffered heavy casualties, and implored the special task force to find a way to destroy the Japanese devil heavy artillery base and reduce the pressure on the troops.

And the approximate bearing is reported.

Zhang Lei convened a meeting of the team leader and above.

Zhang Lei said: "First of all, we must find the heavy artillery base of the Japanese devils and draw out the topographic map. Who will complete this task? ”

Zhao Sixi raised his hand and said, "I'm an expert in explosives, of course I went to reconnoitre." ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "Okay!" You go to scouting. However, I remind you that you must pay attention to safety, the defense of the heavy artillery base of the Japanese devils must be very good, once exposed, the Japanese will strengthen the security force, improve the level of security, and we will lose any chance of surprise attack. ”

Lynch said, "I'll go with him!" ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "The road is very far, and you can't come back in a day, so you have to bring enough dry food." The task is to reconnoiter the heavy artillery base, and if we can't see any fighters, we will casually kill the Japanese devils, which will expose our plan of action because of a small mistake. ”

Lynch nodded and said, "Please rest assured, we promise to complete the task." ”

Three days later, Lynch and his party returned to the station.

In Zhang Lei's room, the four squad leaders, Lynch, Wang Yueying, and others were looking at the sketches drawn by Lynch and others, and marked them with pencils on the map.

The heavy artillery Wang Yaowu said was actually a howitzer, and the shells flew out and fell on the opponent's position in an arc, and the explosion power was many times greater than that of mountain artillery shells.

There are a total of 20 howitzers in the Japanese heavy artillery base, which is at least ten miles away from the battlefield, and is heavily guarded in a mountain gorge. There were heavy machine-gun positions on the heights on both sides, and it was impossible for a small army to get close.

Wang Yaowu's artillery had a lower range than the Japanese howitzers, and because in the mountain gorge, even if a shell hit, it would fall on the mountain, and it was impossible to hit the position.

The Japanese invaders' choice of the heavy artillery base was scientifically investigated and demonstrated.

Zhao Sixi said: "It would be nice if there were planes, we told them the coordinates, and they flew over and dropped some bombs, and after a few bombs, the heavy artillery base would be completely destroyed." ”

Zhang Lei smiled bitterly and said: "Last time I went to bomb Japan, I used paper bullets!" Big joke! Unless the Americans help in the future, we can't dream like that now, we can only think of other ways. ”

Lynch said, "Captain, unless you can get the new weapon from last time, we won't be able to destroy the Japanese heavy artillery base." ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said, "I'll think of a way!" If the heavy artillery base is not destroyed, the life of the 74th Army will not be easy! ”

Zhang Lei came to the edge of the cliff alone and called out to the yellow-robed and black-bearded old man in his mind: "Old man, now the squadron is attacked by the powerful artillery fire of the Japanese devils, and the casualties are very heavy, I want to destroy the Japanese heavy artillery base, but we only have flesh and blood, no heavy weapons." Give me four sets of bazookas from last time, give me as many rockets as possible, blow up the heavy artillery base, and attack the Japanese convoy. ”

The yellow-robed black-bearded old man appeared, smiled and said, "Okay!" Your players are quite brave and I admire them. Four sets of rocket launchers, twenty boxes of cluster rockets. It's enough to blow up four boxes of a heavy artillery base, and the rest will be used for other purposes. ”

Zhang Lei smiled and asked, "Who are you?" Why should I participate in the Tribulation? And why will you help me? ”

The yellow-robed black-bearded old man smiled and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed. ”

The yellow-robed and black-bearded old man disappeared.

Zhang Lei happily came to Xiaohua and Wang Yueying's tent, Zhang Lei almost exclaimed, four boxes are stacked together, twenty boxes are stacked together, so spectacular! Wow! The old man really sent it as requested, it was amazing.

Zhang Lei hurriedly disassembled and assembled the bazooka box, a brand new set of bazookas, as long as it was installed, it could be used.

Zhang Lei asked everyone to come in and watch.

Everyone regarded Zhang Lei as a god, and the screams continued.

Zhang Lei is regarded as a god by everyone, and it feels very good! Smiling all the time.

Zhang Lei reminded the team members not to leak the news to anyone, including Boss Dai, and of course Boss Dai warned Wang Yueying.

Zhang Lei taught everyone to assemble a bazooka, and when everyone learned it, he told everyone to aim, range, etc.

The next day, when the team members were practicing assembling aiming and ranging, Zhang Lei called the four squad leaders, Lynch and Wang Yueying, to his tent to study the plan of attacking the heavy artillery base.

The Bazooka is only suitable for straight line attacks, and has a different trajectory than the howitzer.

If it is a mortar, it can attack in a high arc, but the mortar is too powerful to destroy a heavy artillery base.

A careful study concluded that it was necessary to seize the heights, attacking down from the heights in order to produce the best results.

Weapons are not the decisive factor in winning a war, the key factor in determining the victory or defeat of a war is people.

How easy is it to seize the high ground on both sides? Rockets are not suitable for attacking from the bottom up. It was necessary to find a path to climb the mountain, and to climb up unnoticed, and launch a surprise attack on the heavy machine-gun position.

During the operation, once exposed, they will definitely be killed by crossfire from the high ground on both sides.

Even if they could take the high ground, the defenders would quickly launch a full-scale attack on the high ground, and if mortars were used, the high ground would not be able to be held.

Zhang Lei's brows furrowed, everyone's brows furrowed, and the excitement of having new weapons disappeared.

It took three days to go back and forth again, and it took time to carry the bazooka, so that if you tossed it, the fighters would disappear, and if you couldn't figure it out, the Japanese heavy artillery base would have already been transferred. The Seventy-fourth Army and the rest of the defenders had long since been routed.

Zhang Lei gritted his teeth and said loudly: "We definitely can't discuss it in the air, so let's do it!" A small team carrying a box of cluster rockets and bazookas set off immediately, and when we arrived at our destination, we worked on specific strategies. ”

Everybody said yes.

Zhang Lei asked Wang Yueying and Xiaohua Wu Siyu to stay behind and set off at night with four teams.

The rain was heavy and the mountain road was slippery, and the four squad leaders each had a flashlight shining on the road, and the team members followed with their equipment.

Zhang Lei and Lynch were at the forefront.

Since Lynch and the others had made a trip, although the road was extremely difficult, it was still much faster than when they first came.

Before dawn, Zhang Lei and Lynch lay in ambush in the woods, using binoculars to observe the opposite mountain. The mountain is overgrown with trees, rocky, and steep, at least 60 degrees or more, and it is impossible to climb it without a road.

At the top of the hill there was a circle of sack fortifications, and there was a canopy made of wood, in which seven or eight Japanese devils were active, and the barrel of a heavy machine gun was poking out like a poisonous snake.

Zhang Lei and the others moved to the other side and found that the mountain was also steep, and they couldn't find the road in the telescope.

It is even more impossible to rush through the bottom of the gorge, because the mouth of the gorge is guarded by at least one small group of Japanese soldiers, and the entrance is so narrow that it is impossible to get through.

Lynch looked at Zhang Lei and sighed: "Only by climbing up and hitting from top to bottom can we destroy the heavy artillery, but we are not monkeys, how can we climb up!" If we can climb a hill and destroy all the people on it, the opposite heavy machine gun base is within our attack range, and we can destroy it by firing a rocket from a bazooka. ”

After thinking about it, Zhang Lei said: "Let everyone go separately to find the medicine picker, as long as you can find the medicine picker, I believe there will be a way to go up." ”
