Chapter 290: The Sunflower of Death and the Lighthouse Hover

At the same time that the Ming army's air assault team occupied Kutazane, a mechanized infantry brigade and a mountain infantry brigade, plus a cluster of Javanese infantry divisions, launched a fierce attack on the defense line of two divisions of the First Army of the Aceh Army west of Medan, and the other more than 20,000 militiamen attacked north to contain the remaining division of the Aceh Army.

The defeated Acehnese army began to flock to Kutazane.

"Enemy Army!"

Immediately shouts rang out from the positions of the Ming army in Kuta Zane, and a whole brigade of helicopters airlifted in two groups quickly began to prepare to meet the enemy.

Just behind their defensive line, one after another armed Pixiu helicopters took off, and even some transport models equipped with Vulcan machine guns in the rear compartment also joined the battle, and the scene was like a blockbuster of the Vietnam War.

But it's a pity that their opponents are not enough to show the bravery of the Ming army, because the next attack is completely a boring one-sided killing, but those Aceh troops have never even seen a helicopter, how can they fight against the Ming army with a full set of standards for the US military in the Vietnam War.

Especially the armed Pixiu, although the rear compartment plus the flat arm looks very funny, but it is a very practical and effective improvement, the flat arm on one side is two 32-tube rocket launch nests, and on the other side is a large-caliber Vulcan machine gun pylon, forming a combination of light and heavy firepower.

Dozens of such helicopters circled over the heads of the defeated Aceh army, choosing the most dense number of targets to descend at altitude, while firing at the ground without stopping, and the hapless Aceh army was powerless in the face of rockets and machine gun bullets falling like a storm overhead, although some of them were more heroic in raising light machine guns and even rifles and shooting into the sky. But the titanium armor underneath these helicopters is also enough to provide protection.

Immediately afterwards, all the helicopters opened fire and quickly dispersed in all directions. Rockets and machine-gun bullets whizzed through the air. Bloody slaughter was created on the ground, and the corpses and splatters of flesh continued to spread out in all directions as they scattered, and the bright red color radiated in the green, like a blood-red petal blooming on the ground, and the corpses piled up in the center together depicted a bewitching flower.

Flower of Death.

Of course, this kind of beauty is not appreciated by people on the ground.

The soldiers of the Ming army on the ground were lying in the trenches and fortresses, using the weapons in their hands to do the same work as their comrades in the sky.

Kill!

The desperate Aceh army. Rushed madly towards the Ming army.

They have no choice, this is the only way for them to retreat to Aceh, not only them, but also the other three armies on the southern front, this is all the armies of Aceh, and almost all the young men, once they are sealed in North Sumatra and Riau, then the whole country will be completely finished.

But alas, their bravery did not return the desired result in the slightest, on those helicopters with Vulcan machine guns in the sky. A Ming Army soldier is standing in the cabin and aiming his gun at them, like the most classic scene in a Vietnam War blockbuster. The six barrels of the guns sprayed flames in frantic shifts, and the bullets with a rate of fire of thousands of rounds per minute hit the charging Aceh soldiers like a storm, and the Aceh soldiers fell one by one as flesh and blood splattered.

Looking at this scene, even the soldiers of the Ming army who were carelessly cleaning up the fish that had slipped through the net in the trenches couldn't help but feel a chill on their backs.

They now know that these small planes that they call flying tractors because they are too noisy and uncomfortable to sit on are really ruthless!

"It's not enough! It's not good, it's not perfect! ”

The performance of the armed helicopter in the first battle still made Yang Yuan very dissatisfied, the bomber plus the coagulated qi oil bomb, and the cloud bao bomb washed the ground to open up the landing field, and the armed helicopter accompanied the protection, this classic Vietnam War blockbuster always has some shortcomings.

Ah, he remembered what was missing, he also lacked an AC130 air gunboat.

"Your efficiency is too low, aren't you just loading the Hercules transport plane with a side-firing Vulcan cannon, and it hasn't been changed for almost a year!"

In a huge factory building at the Yingtian headquarters of the Kunpeng Aircraft Company, Yang Yuan said to his engineer with great dissatisfaction that in front of him was a modified Hercules transport plane, with titanium alloy armor, two six-barreled 25 mm Vulcan guns and a Bofors 40 gun on the side, in addition to two 12.7 mm Vulcan guns, and the modification work had actually been completed.

"But the aiming system is not good, we have conducted many tests, because it is side-firing fire, and the aircraft is flying at high speed, so it cannot hit the target at all, even if it is a covering strike on a large target, the effect is very poor. In our experiments, it is even difficult to hit a merchant ship that is a target at sea, even if it is very close, the effect is not good, you also know that even if this plane flies slowly, it will have to travel hundreds of kilometers per hour, such a fast speed, no matter how you aim at the target, it will flash by. ”

His engineer scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Of course it can't be aimed, I didn't prepare it to aim, first of all, this plane can be used, right?"

Yang Feng said speechlessly.

It's strange that this thing can be targeted, the modern version of the air gunboat, it's all fully automatic control, radar plus various detection equipment, with high-speed computer control, even then the hit rate is not high, he is now basically looking directly to be able to really aim at the target then it is against the sky, but this thing can't aim and can't aim inaccurately play.

"The plane is no problem, we have done many tests, the firepower is strong, the belly is armored, plus the size is huge, the protection is also very strong, as long as it is not a direct hit by the armor-piercing shell of the Sanqi anti-aircraft gun, it is generally not injured at all, especially the ammunition that can be stacked in the cabin The firepower continuity can be called a change."

The engineer said.

"That's fine, call all your pilots and gunners involved in the test, and I'll teach them a trick and fly directly to the battlefield in Aceh for actual combat testing."

Yang Feng said.

Two hours later.

On the road on the south bank of the Toba Lake, a convoy stretching for several kilometers is speeding north, this is the retreat to reinforce the second army of Aceh in Kutazane, they were originally in the Padang Seripa area with the Javanese army and the Ming army Padang Padang Protector team, although they have never been able to break through the opponent's defense line, but fortunately, the other side is helpless to take them, the two sides have been deadlocked for several months. However, the Ming army's surprise attack and occupation of Kutazane was equivalent to cutting off their logistics line, coupled with the attack in the direction of Medan, so that the Acehnese immediately realized that they were already in a huge trap, so they urgently issued an order to retreat, and at the same time concentrated all available trucks to transport a division of the Second Army to reinforce Kutazane and open the retreat channel.

They didn't know that they happened to give Yang Feng as an experiment.

"Enemy planes!"

In the marching convoy, there were suddenly countless screams, and the division commander sitting on a warrior army vehicle captured from the Javanese army looked up and shouted angrily: "What is a transport plane afraid of!" ”

The communications soldier who had just screamed in front of him quickly shut up.

It is true that there is only one transport plane, although I have never seen it, but there is no need to be afraid, the convoy continues to move, but the next plane behaves very strangely, it keeps flying around the convoy, and the altitude is kept very low, although there is no threat, but it makes the convoy panic, even the division commander can't help but lie on the window, looking at the black giant plane in the distance with some hair.

Suddenly, there was a flash of fire on the side of the plane.

Before the division commander could react, a piercing whistle swept overhead, and almost at the same time, a shell exploded nearly 100 meters away.

"Damn, there's a cannon on it!"

The division commander exclaimed.

"Still missed."

At the same time, a gunner in the sky stood in the cabin and said with a sad face.

"Drop the bomb first and force the convoy to stop!"

Immediately afterwards, the shouts of Yang Yuanfu sounded from the radio station next to him.

"Understood."

The pilot in front immediately turned the plane, went around to the rear of the convoy, flew forward from the back, kept adjusting the course during the flight, and almost kept the same route as the convoy, and suddenly began to drop bombs in front, and more than a dozen coagulable qi oil bombs on the specially installed pylons smashed down at an ultra-low altitude almost at the same time, and the entire road front was instantly in flames, and the two unlucky trucks in front of them even rushed into the flames, and a large number of Acehnese soldiers jumped down with screams full of flames.

The convoy that was moving was immediately forced to stop.

Immediately after that, the gunboat began to circle again, and just as it circled to the second circle, and when the fire on the road was about to be extinguished, the gunner opened fire again, and a truck was blown away in an instant, and he shouted with joy on his face: "It's okay!" ”

"Fire!"

The officer next to him shouted without hesitation.

Almost instantly, the remaining two Vulcan cannons and two Vulcan guns spewed flames at the same time, and the convoy, which was basically in the center of the flight path of the experimental gunboat, was immediately overwhelmed by a storm of shells and bullets.

The division commander was dumbfounded, looking at himself in front of him dumbfounded, under the explosion of artillery shells, the impact of large-caliber bullets, everything he had was shattered, his military vehicles, his soldiers, his hopes, all shattered under the furious fire.

"Quick, get off the road!"

The division commander shouted tremblingly, and at that moment there was a sudden sound above his head, and almost at the same time the fire shone in front of him, and a hot thing went straight into his head, and the next moment he knew nothing.

The gunboats in the air are still taking this convoy as the center of the circle, flying in a regular circle, and the barrels on the side are still constantly dumping shells, tearing apart one target after another on the ground, although the hit rate is still not too high, but it is enough, and even those 40 shells can occasionally hit the target, as for the Vulcan cannon, because of the fast rate of fire, it has actually been hitting one target after another.

As time went on, both pilots and gunners became more familiar with this tactic, and they also cooperated better with each other, and the accuracy of shells continued to increase.

Of course, they are not in a hurry, they have time to practice, and there are shells piled up behind them! (To be continued.) )
