Chapter 47: Tornado rocket artillery
Not long after Wei Qidong and Zhang Jingjun arrived at the North City Gate, they saw a dilapidated car coming this way, and from Zhang Jingjun's expression, they knew that it should be General Li Fuying. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The car creaked to a halt at the gate of the city, and from above came a middle-aged man in a simple military uniform, with thick eyebrows and handsome eyes, and walked with a tigerish style, looking like a general who had experienced a hundred battles.
"General." Zhang Jingjun hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
Li Fuying returned the salute, and then looked at Wei Qidong.
"This is Brother Wei." Zhang Jingjun hurriedly introduced Li Fuying, and then said to Wei Qidong, "Brother Wei, this is our General Li." ”
"Hello, General Li." Wei Qidong stretched out his hand.
Li Fuying was very happy, held Wei Qidong's right hand with both hands, and said sincerely, "Brother Wei, thank you very much." ”
"For the country and the people, why should I be grateful."
"Haha, okay." In just one sentence, Li Fuying felt that the character of the young man in front of him was very appetizing, so there was no need to say anything like thanks.
"General Li, if you just support some weapons, after the weapons are delivered, I, Wei Qidong, can leave. Support weapons are only part of it, I have more important things to say to General Li, and I also need to get General Li's support...... "Wei Qidong didn't waste time talking about some irrelevant topics, and directly explained his intentions.
Li Fuying looked to the side and said to Wei Qidong, "Brother Wei, please say, there are no outsiders here." ”
Wei Qidong sold a pass, raised his hand and gestured in the direction of the city tower, "Before I say it, I want to ask General Li and Commander Zhang to go up to the city tower to watch a good show." ”
While speaking, Wei Qidong looked at his watch, "It's nine fifty-one, ten o'clock, and the show has officially begun." ”
Seeing Wei Qidong so mysterious, Li Fuying and Zhang Jingjun glanced at each other, although the time is very tight at the moment, they can still afford to spend ten minutes.
"Brother Wei, please." Li Fuying took the initiative to raise his hand.
"Please." Immediately, a group of several people quickly climbed the city tower.
After climbing the tower, the three of them stood side by side, Wei Qidong's finger pointed far ahead, and said, "That's the position of the Japanese army." ”
Li Fuying and Zhang Jingjun nodded at the same time.
"Then please General Li and Head Zhang prepare the telescope first, and the show will be staged in that direction." Wei Qidong said with a smile.
"The show is being staged on the Japanese position?" The two of them looked suspicious, but they also knew that Wei Qidong should not use this kind of thing to entertain them, so they immediately asked people to prepare binoculars.
Within a while, three binoculars were brought over, and Wei Qidong looked at his watch, and there were less than two minutes.
The two of them didn't know what medicine was sold in Wei Qidong's gourd, but the time of two minutes was very fast, and as the second hand ticked close to the hour, ten, nine, eight, seven...... Three, two, one......
Time seemed to stand still all of a sudden, and suddenly, "Woo......"
More than a dozen rainbow rays jumped from behind, quickly crossed the sky, and scrambled to land in front, where it was the direction of the Japanese army's position. The space seemed to freeze all at once, and then it was torn apart by a huge vibration, and the earth trembled.
......The sound of the violent explosion was like the roar of the earth, and the thick smoke and fire rose like boiling water, like an angry volcano erupting......
Li Fuying and Zhang Jingjun roughly saw the tragic explosion over there through the telescope, and the whole person froze, and a dry mouth felt for a while, what is the situation?
After a long time, Li Fuying and Zhang Jingjun put down their binoculars, and then looked at Wei Qidong in unison, they never thought that such a young man would bring them such a shock, and it is still not clear what the source of the shock is, what caused such a huge attack power.
"What is this?" Li Fuying took a deep breath and asked in shock.
"This is a new set of weapons I got from, and the attack power is very impressive." Wei Qidong said simply.
It's simply impressive, is it impressive? Li Fuying thinks that he has also experienced the battlefield for decades, needless to say about his country's weapons, even the powerful little devil has never heard of such a terrifying weapon.
At first, Li Fuying thought it was a salvo of 100 cannons, but after a little observation, he knew that it was not at all, it was not the effect of a salvo of cannons. Therefore, the situation just now has nothing to do with artillery. There is no aircraft group in the sky, and it is obviously not an aircraft bombing, so what kind of weapon can withstand the salvo of hundreds of cannons?
That is naturally the Tornado MLRS, the rocket artillery was invented by the Soviet Union, and the old Russia has carried it forward, and the Tornado is as its name suggests, the veritable king of rocket artillery.
The Tornado consists of 12 tubes, each filled with an 800-kilogram heavy rocket with a diameter of up to 300 mm and a length of 7.8 meters. Such rockets include cluster rockets with fragmentation submunitions, anti-personnel explosive rockets with detachable warheads, and cluster rockets with auto-targeting submunitions.
Of the 800-kilogram rockets, the warhead alone is 280 kilograms, while the cluster rockets contain 72 bullets weighing 2 kilograms, and 12 rockets can throw more than 800 bullets when fired in a salvo. And the time of a salvo is less than forty seconds, and when it is fired at the same time, the effect is like a salvo of a hundred cannons, no wonder Li Fuying and Zhang Jingjun think so.
Last night, Wei Qidong confirmed the position of the Japanese army, and then calculated and calibrated the shooting of Zhu Yuan, and also told Tang Xinyi how to operate, and the two agreed on a time by radio, and they could launch directly at ten o'clock.
Tornadoes are known for their long range, high precision, and great power, with a minimum range of 20 kilometers and a maximum range of 90 kilometers, and the distance between Tang Xinyi's position and the Japanese position is only about 60 kilometers, which is just within the strike range of the tornado.
And the shooting accuracy of the Tornado can even be close to the shooting accuracy of ordinary howitzers, so rushing headlong into the positions of the Japanese army, coupled with the exaggerated coverage area of the Tornado, a salvo can hit an area of 67 hectares, that is, 670,000 square meters. Suddenly, the Japanese positions were covered in flames and black smoke.
It was too far away, and Wei Qidong could not see the specific tragic situation of the Japanese position, but the Japanese army itself was in pain.
Originally, the whole team had been completed and was preparing to launch a new round of attack on Panshan, but as a result, without warning, there was a terrifying rain of bullets. Suddenly, as if the end had come, countless people disappeared into the dense explosion, and the miserable howls came one after another.
However, more Japanese troops still found fortifications to hide as soon as possible, waiting for the continuous baptism of artillery fire. However, after waiting for a few minutes, the attack did not come again, as if it was just a timely rain, and it was gone after the fight.
The Japanese army did not wait any longer, and this time, the attack had to be changed to self-rescue, treating the wounded, extinguishing the fire, and rescuing the fortifications, and they were very busy.
Although it fell into chaos, the Japanese army still thought of retaliation at the first time, and hurriedly notified the air team to find the source of the attack, and then bombarded it.
