Solaevsky said with a smile: "We took the initiative to ask Your Majesty to come to the battlefield, the purpose is to test the actual combat effectiveness of this rocket, Brigade Commander Qi, you can arrange it, when will we go to war?" ”

"Do you have any special requirements for the launch conditions of your individual rockets?"

"As long as it doesn't rain heavily and doesn't blow strong winds, our individual rockets can be fired."

"Then you go and launch at night, during the day, you are easy to expose, you don't know, the Qing soldiers in the fortress can shoot accurately."

"It's okay, our rockets can hit targets 300 meters away, and the Qing soldiers' rifles can't hit 300 meters."

"Okay, you can attack the Qing soldier's fortress now, but I have one thing to make clear, the Qing army's fortress is very strong, our HP-1 mortar can't blow up, and your individual rockets may not be able to blow up the fortress." Qi Lei said and looked down at the individual rockets, although they were significantly larger than the mortar shells, but Qi Lei still had little confidence in them.

"Brigade Commander Qi rest assured, the power of our individual rockets is much stronger than mortar shells, the caliber of our individual rockets has reached 90 mm, the length of the warhead is also three times that of mortar shells, and the amount of explosives loaded is more than ten times that of mortar shells."

Seeing that Solaevsky was full of confidence, Qi Lei didn't say much, so he personally led a battalion of troops to the outside of the mountain road, preparing to launch an attack on the Qing army's fortress.

Solaevsky led his men to the assault position, and the first thing he did was not to take out the rockets for launch, but to order his subordinates to dig bunkers.

Qi Lei was very strange, "Mr. Solaevsky, do you still need to dig a bunker to launch a single rocket?" ”

Solaevsky solemnly replied: "Yes, it is necessary to dig bunkers, and when rockets are fired, people have to hide in bunkers, and only then can they launch rockets." ”

"What's the point of firing rockets and hiding in bunkers?"

"Ugh." Solaevsky sighed heavily, his face was gloomy, "We can't help it, you should be able to understand that the smaller the rocket, the smaller the number of propellants it will be loaded, and the range will naturally become shorter, in order to increase the range, our rockets must add some more powerful propellants, and the direct consequence of this is that the rockets may explode when launched, so we must hide in bunkers." ”

The development of individual rockets in China is also the same as the development of shipborne rockets, which is quite unsmooth; in the process of developing individual rockets, there have been many cases of direct explosions during launch, so the launcher must be in the bunker before launching.

Qi Lei nodded gloomily, and asked the soldiers to assist them in digging bunkers, and the Qing soldiers on the opposite side saw a large group of Huaxia troops coming, and seemed to be about to attack, so they hurriedly prepared for battle, and some people also fired cold guns at the Huaxia army position, although these Qing soldiers had sharpshooters, but the guns in their hands were too bad, only at a distance of about two hundred meters, and they couldn't hit anything if they were far away, so none of their bullets hit the Huaxia soldiers.

After about half an hour, the four launch bunkers had been dug up, Solaevsky gave the order to start firing, and some fighters moved the launcher to the front of the bunker, since the rockets often exploded, it was impossible to use the shoulder-mounted launch, so the rockets could only be placed on the launchers, and the people hid in the bunkers for launching.

There is a scope and reticle on the launcher, which is equivalent to an aiming instrument, and the aimer adjusts the angle of the launcher, and then stretches out a thumb, which means that the aiming is complete, and the rocket can be added.

The weight of a rocket is 20 kilograms, a person with great strength can carry it completely, a soldier picked up a rocket gripper, walked to the rocket, the rocket gripper is a small machine, clamped on the rocket, after clamping, the person can pick up the gripper, you can pick up the rocket.

The fighter grabbed the rocket, picked it up, put it on the launcher, took out a few more instruments and checked them for a while, then made an "OK" gesture to Solaevsky in the bunker, and ran into the bunker.

Solaevsky took out a cross, touched the cross and prayed for a while, then put the cross away, said "fire", a soldier pressed the firing button, only to hear a loud "boom", the rocket dragged a tail flame more than a meter long, and flew to the bunker in front.

Solaevsky let out a long breath, "There were no explosions, God forbid." ”

I saw that the rocket flew over a distance of more than 300 meters, and exploded on the fortress, and a thick black smoke directly covered the fortress completely, and everyone saw this thick smoke in their hearts, and this thick smoke was much larger than the 60-millimeter mortar shells, so the explosive power of this individual rocket was far stronger than that of mortar shells.

Qi Lei looked at this thick smoke but felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, it was done, it was done, the rocket had already blown up the fortress, because he saw that countless gravel flew out of the smoke, and when the sixty-millimeter mortar shell blew up the bunker before, there had never been so much rubble.

The time was not big, the smoke dispersed, the whole fortress was half blown up, seven or eight Qing soldiers were running outside in a panic from the fortress, it turned out that a large amount of gunpowder gas was generated after the rocket exploded, these gunpowder gases were very choking, the Qing soldiers could not stay in the fortress, they could only run outside.

Qi Lei pointed at those Qing soldiers with his hand, "Call me." "A bullet passed, and seven or eight Qing soldiers fell to the ground and died on the spot.

Qi Lei saw that he had killed the Qing soldiers, and then ordered: "Brothers, wait for the smoke to disperse again, and the first company will go over and take a look." ”

After waiting for more than 20 minutes, the smoke completely dissipated, and the company quickly ran towards the fortress that was blown up, but unexpectedly, as soon as it ran out for one or two hundred meters, there was a dense sound of gunfire in the distance, and the bullets were whizzing towards the company.

There was an open space from the starting point of the first company to the bombed Qing fortress, and the first company did not dare to continue to advance, so it retreated.

Qi Lei pointed to the fortress equipped with heavy machine guns in the distance and asked Solaevsky: "Can you knock out that fortress?" ”

Solaevsky raised his hand to measure the distance, hesitated for a moment, and said: "The distance is a bit far, one may not be able to hit, let's hit a few more, we should be able to hit." ”

Solaevsky had just dug four bunkers and set up four launchers, and now Solaevsky ordered the four launchers to fire rockets one after another, and the fourth one finally hit the fortress with heavy machine guns, and after a violent explosion, the fortress collapsed with a bang.

Qi Lei once again ordered the first company to go out to reconnoiter the fortress that was blown up for the first time, and the first company soon came back and reported to Qi Lei: "The fortress of the Qing army has completely lost its combat effectiveness, and all the people inside are dead. ”

Qi Lei slapped his face excitedly, "Great, Comrade Solaevsky, I didn't expect your rockets to really work, we don't have to wait any longer, you immediately clear the fortress on the entire mountain road, I will send troops to follow you, as soon as you empty the fortress, our side will kill the mountain road and take Kunming directly." ”

Solaevsky smiled and nodded, and Qi Lei grinned and said: "You individual rockets are very powerful, when can we equip each of our squads with one, then our firepower will be greatly enhanced." ”

Solaevsky shook his head with a wry smile, "It's far away, and now our individual rockets are still in the experimental stage, and there are still many imperfections." ”

Qi Leilian said "pity" a few times, and then mobilized his troops and prepared to attack.

The news of the destruction of the two fortresses was sent to the governor of Yungui Song Fan, who was instantly shocked, he thought that their fortress was impregnable, but who knew that it was destroyed in front of the Huaxia army.

Song Fan was shocked and then angry, and he angrily called the craftsmen who built the fort.

Yunnan is located in a remote area, and Song Fan can not find engineers who are proficient in military engineering, so Song Fan can only find craftsmen from the people, and the Chinese people are still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Song Fan really found such a group of craftsmen.

The leader of the craftsmen is an old man in his sixties, surnamed Zhang, who looks cautious, and even takes care of his breath, for fear that if he takes the wrong breath, he will make the official master unhappy, and he will be clicked by the official master.

Craftsman Zhang cautiously knelt in front of Song Fan and kowtowed to say hello, and Song Fan shouted angrily: "Old immortal, the fortress you built is not strong at all, and it has just been blown up by the snitch." ”

Craftsman Zhang was so frightened that his whole body trembled, knelt on the ground, crying and begging: "My lord, this is no wonder the villain, the fortress is dead, the person who attacked the fortress is alive, and the fortress will definitely not be able to defeat people." ”

"Hugh wants to say it again, damn old thing, come here, put all these craftsmen in prison and imprison them, and be convicted of collaborating with the enemy before the war!"

Several Qing soldiers rushed over and grabbed Craftsman Zhang and dragged him out, the high-ranking officials of the Qing court treated the craftsman so rudely, the Qing soldiers arrested Craftsman Zhang and asked for bribes, Craftsman Zhang was already destitute, and there was no money for the Qing soldiers, and the Qing soldiers shot Craftsman Zhang on the spot.

At this time, someone came to report to Song Fan, the Huaxia army blew up more fortresses, and now the entire mountain road is going to be opened, Song Fan was surprised, Liangwang Mountain is the gateway to Kunming, if Liangwang Mountain is lost, then the Huaxia army will drive straight into and seize Yangzong Town, and Kunming will be dangerous at that time.

Song Fan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered: "Come on, order the defenders of Yangzong Town to attack and destroy the Snitch." (Welcome to join the Canghai reader group - 423214695, and everyone is also welcome to join the Canghai public WeChat platform - qietingcanghai)
