Chapter 180: Artillery Strike
A few seconds later, Wang Dong heard the sound of shelling. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's not obvious, it's certainly not a powerful howitzer, it's not like a mortar, it's a couple of old-fashioned recoilless guns that only armed groups will use.
After the cannon sounded, the shells flew over.
At this time, Wang Dong had already hidden in the reinforced bunker next to him.
Previously, Zhang Zilan had confirmed whether the militants had recoiling guns, so Wang Dong reinforced a bunker and put two layers of sandbags on the front.
Recoilless guns are direct-fire weapons, so you don't have to worry about shells falling overhead.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
As the shells fell, explosions occurred one after another, and the impact point was more than 100 meters to the north, and at least one village house was directly hit by the shells.
Luckily, there was no one in the cottage.
In addition, the militants had only six recoilless guns in total, and only six shells were fired in one salvo, and it took at least half a minute to reload.
It's just that the enemy has more than recoilless guns.
"Tom ......"
As soon as the shelling ended, heavy machine guns opened fire.
There were four in total, all of which were powerful Deshka heavy machine guns.
Crucially, the four heavy machine guns were all aimed at the three houses in the middle of the village, and were aimed at the rooftops, apparently to suppress the snipers.
Wang Dong didn't dare to look up, and stayed in the fortress honestly.
Although the rain of bullets is not dense, the power of the 12.7mm bullet is amazing, and if you are hit, even if you don't die, you will lose arms and legs.
There are small drones, and there is no need to look up to observe.
"Brother Dong, the recoilless gun is more than two thousand meters away, and the enemy is advancing towards the village."
Needless to say, under the cover of heavy machine guns and the suppression of artillery fire, the militants would definitely advance towards the village, and the number would not be too small.
"How many are there?" Luo Qing asked.
"Hundreds, maybe two hundred."
Luo Qing glanced at Wang Dong, this was a large-scale attack.
"It's all hidden, don't go out and be a target. Brother Chu, keep an eye on those machine gunners, and after the next round of shelling, shoot out those machine guns first. ”
"Roger."
Wang Dong adjusted the scope of the sniper rifle and locked the range to 1,500 meters.
The heavy machine guns were mounted on the pickups, and they were still firing, and the pickups must have remained in place, at least the militants were not strong enough to fire on the move.
At this moment, the whistling sound of cannonballs coming in the air was heard.
Wang Dong glanced at his watch, and it had been nearly two minutes since the last shelling.
Obviously, the skills of the militants are poor.
Normally, it took at most half a minute to reload a recoilless gun, and a skilled gunner was able to do it in ten seconds.
This time, the shells fell a little closer, but they were still a few dozen meters away from the house.
Recoilless guns are direct-fire weapons, originally used against tanks, and after the widespread use of portable weapons such as rocket launchers and individual anti-tank missiles, recoilless guns were withdrawn from the stage of warfare.
Of course, recoilless guns can also fire high-explosive shells, but the range is limited by the elevation angle and will not be too far.
In addition, the accuracy of the curvature is very poor.
To put it simply, if warp fire is required, it is better to use mortars.
It was in this way that recoilless guns were removed by armies when infantry no longer needed to use recoilless guns against armored targets such as tanks and fighting vehicles.
As a result, a large number of recoilless guns have been sent to countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, and have become sharp weapons in the hands of armed groups.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
When the last shell exploded, Wang Dong got up and quickly set up the sniper rifle.
As he expected, four pickup trucks with Deshka heavy machine guns were 1,500 meters away, where the militants were assembled.
After several minutes of continuous strafing, all four heavy machine guns had stopped firing.
It's not that the bullets are gone, it's that the barrel is overheating and the barrel has to be cooled.
Obviously, the coordination of the militants is very problematic.
The correct tactic is to cease fire before the shelling and wait until the shelling has passed, so as to ensure that the fire suppression is uninterrupted and do not give the opponent any opportunity to adjust.
"Boom-"
Luo Qing fired first, using a gun-mounted grenade launcher and firing a flare.
On the roof of the building to the south, Zhao Huang also fired a flare.
At the same time, Wang Dong took off the low-light night vision device mounted in front of the optical sight.
To fight at night, night vision devices are definitely needed, it's just that night vision devices reduce accuracy.
If the distance is only a few hundred meters, it is not a big problem.
Up to 1,500 meters, because of the error generated by the night vision device, it is very likely to cause the warhead to deviate by tens of centimeters at the end of the trajectory.
Obviously, it's not the difference between hitting the forehead and hitting the chin, it's the difference between whether you can hit it or not.
The flares flew in the air for more than ten seconds before they exploded over those pickups.
Not very bright, but enough to aim.
"Bang-"
Just adjusted the aiming point slightly, and Wang Dong pulled the trigger.
Immediately afterward, he shifted the muzzle of his gun and aimed at the machine gunner on the pickup truck on the left.
"Bang-"
At the moment when the flare went out, Wang Dong pulled the trigger again.
Did you hit a hit?
Wang Dong didn't know, but after he fired, the militants didn't shoot back, and the four heavy machine guns all became dumb.
Of course, it doesn't really matter if you hit it or not.
The key is to make the enemy feel threatened and not dare to continue to use heavy machine guns.
Immediately after that, the third round of shelling came.
It was still six shells, the point of impact was still a few tens of meters away, and it was a little to the west, and the gunners of the militants were definitely adjusting their aiming points.
To the north of the village, more than 100 militants are still advancing south.
It's just that on foot, the speed is not very fast.
A few minutes later, after the sixth shelling, the heavy machine guns rang out again, only this time they were not aimed at the three houses in the middle.
"Brother Dong, the enemy still has five hundred meters left."
"Everyone, get your grenade launchers ready, move your position with one shot, and don't stay in one spot for too long."
Wang Dong picked up the AK12 assault rifle placed next to him and loaded the grenade launcher for the gun.
The effective range of low-speed grenades is generally within 400 meters, but in the hands of Wang Dong and others, it is not a problem to use them to deal with cluster personnel at a distance of 500 meters.
The range of the grenade is sufficient, the key is whether it can hit.
Against a fast-moving single target, it is clearly unrealistic.
It's just that dealing with armed men on foot is a piece of cake.
Waiting for the enemy's heavy machine guns to cease fire, Wang Dong took the lead in getting up, raised the AK12 rifle, roughly aimed, and fired the grenade.
Within 10 seconds, more than 20 operatives armed with gun-mounted grenade launchers opened fire.
Of course, half of the grenade launchers came from the Kalashnikov team.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Explosions sounded one after another, and more than 20 grenades were more than 20 grenades, even if the power was not great, the killing range was limited, and it was extremely terrifying to concentrate on hitting an area.
It was at this time that the recoilless guns opened fire again.
