Chapter 188 Highway Bridge (2)

"Demolition team, organize the bridge explosion immediately!" Company Commander Zhang also knew that this was the responsibility of their engineering unit, so he quickly gave orders to his soldiers.

"Organize fire to cover the engineer units to blow up the bridge!" Company Commander Luo is a person who has withstood the test of war, and of course he knows that the cooperation of infantry firepower is needed at this time.

The battle soon began, with the soldiers of the 2nd Company poking their heads out of the trenches under artillery fire and strafing the Vietnamese troops on the other side of the bridge, while the engineer units of the 5th Company divided into several teams and rushed towards the road bridge......

It is said that this engineering unit still has some people who are not afraid of death at critical moments, but this does not seem strange, as I said before, there will always be some heroes and some bears in a unit, and the engineer unit is no exception.

Not to mention...... At this time, they had already blown up the highway bridge to make the Vietnamese army sigh at the bridge, but they did not take into account that the Vietnamese army's shells would blow up the detonating wires...... In any case, this is also a mistake they made, and out of a sense of responsibility to make up for their mistakes, the fighters of the engineering unit should also go up to blow up the bridge.

However, sometimes it is not unafraid of sacrifice on the battlefield.

In order to be able to quickly capture the road bridge, the Vietnamese did not stop the long-range artillery fire even when they charged.

It should be said that this is smart, in general, long-range artillery fire, because there is little accuracy...... After all, it was an artillery shell from dozens of kilometers away, so there was always an error due to wind deviation and the like, and the enemy often hid in the trenches while the charging troops had to stand up, so the long-range artillery fire had to stop when the troops had rushed to a certain distance. Otherwise, this artillery fire may kill more of your own people than the enemy.

However, the Vietnamese army did not do so. The reason for this is that they saw that the south side of the road bridge was in the shadow of the anticline of the highlands...... In other words, because of the obstruction of the high ground south of the bridge. Long-range artillery fire will only hit the north of the bridge, but basically cannot hit the south of the bridge.

This allowed the Vietnamese army to boldly charge the highway bridge under the bombardment of artillery fire, and at the same time, the Vietnamese army's condescending fire cover on the high ground also played a great role...... In fact, this is also a very haode cooperation, long-range artillery is powerful but not high-precision, and the close-range firepower is not powerful but it is a targeted strafing, which forms a very haode complementary, so the firepower only hits our army's head can not be raised.

The only good thing about our army is ...... The Vietnamese army had to rush over the highway bridge, which was only more than four meters wide, so this highway bridge naturally became the throat of the Vietnamese army's advance.

The soldiers of the second company have all fought on the battlefield. There is a tacit understanding between each other, so there is no need to order the highway bridge to be firmly blocked with firepower, so even if the Vietnamese army's firepower cover is overwhelming, the battle situation has reached a stalemate for a while, our army cannot rush over, and the Vietnamese army cannot rush over.

The soldiers of the engineering unit rushed forward one by one, and one by one they fell in a pool of blood. The more devils also rushed up in waves, and they were beaten into a sieve in waves.

"Bang!" A single bullet knocked a Vietnamese soldier on the high ground to the ground.

As a sniper, I knew I had to aim farther, so I looked directly around the Vietnamese troops who were charging towards the road bridge and threw myself on the high ground to cover the fire.

After a quick observation of the positions of the Lower Vietnamese Army. I preliminarily determined that the Vietnamese army had only two light machine guns and one mortar, which was good news for us. At the same time, it also proved that Chen Yiyi's judgment was correct, because the Vietnamese army had to march in the jungle, so it had to be lightly armed.

This bullet hit the mortar shooters of the Vietnamese army, perhaps because the Vietnamese army believed that their firepower was enough to suppress our troops, so even this long-range attack weapon was arranged on the front slope.

However, it seems necessary to know that the fighters are changing rapidly, especially the purpose of the Vietnamese army is to prevent our troops from blowing up the bridge, so the mortar gunner must observe the target in real time and respond to the important target in time.

So that gave me a chance...... Of course, I know the power of the 82 gun to shoot at close range, because it has a fairly high accuracy at close range, plus it is a cannon, and it can even hit incendiary bombs...... Don't think about it, that's my first goal.

"Bang!"

The second shot was fired at the secondary shooter of the mortar, and this is where the sniper rifle is not haode...... It's not always possible to control enemy fire, because bullets can only kill the enemy but not destroy the enemy's weapon, which makes it necessary for me to focus on the main target so that other enemies don't continue to use mortars or divert mortars.

At this time, I can't help but hope that our army can also have a few mortars to bombard the position of the Vietnamese devils...... But we seem to have it, I remember that when the retreating troops came down, they brought a few mortars, didn't they?

However, I regret that none of those cannons worked...... Later I learned that those troops had continued to retreat at the moment when we started fighting with the Vietnamese devils.

But it doesn't seem to be their fault, their task is to retreat, isn't it? Strictly speaking, they are also carrying out orders, they just do not choose to actively participate in the battle to help friendly forces in the face of war.

"Bang!" I fired the third shot after shifting positions.

It should be said that the quality of the Vietnamese army we are facing is still very good, the Vietnamese artillery fire exploded into a ball on our position, which suppressed the firepower of our army at the same time also formed a dense smoke and dust around our position, I thought that with the cover of these smoke and dust, I did not need to change positions, but I realized that I was wrong when a machine gun concentrated fire on my position.

This machine gunner was supposed to be a sniper, otherwise he wouldn't have discovered my position just because I had knocked out two mortar shooters and reacted in such a short time.

As I can see, sometimes snipers don't necessarily have sniper rifles in their hands, because there are always more suitable weapons to use on different battlefields, such as the Vietnamese army snipers who use machine guns at this time...... We're surrounded by fire and dust from shells, aren't we? This means that the sniper scope does not play much role, it can only see far away but does not have a perspective function.

For example, I didn't have to shoot a few shots before a layer of dust covered my sniper scope and severely affected my vision, which forced me to spend a little time cleaning it when I poked my head out.

So this time the gun may be a more haode choice, this thing shoots from the point of fire to the range is comparable to the sniper rifle, but the accuracy is a little worse, and it can also kill the target in a large area when firing in bursts......

I should say that this is something I can learn from, but he was too careless...... Although he shifted his position as soon as he fired a bullet at me, he ...... At this point, he should switch back to his sniper rifle.

The reason is simple, the machine gun fire is obviously different from the AK47, which makes it easy for me to find the machine gun position by the dense direction of the bullets and the spark from the muzzle, while there are only two machine guns on the Vietnamese high ground, one of which has the same position, and the other has changed its position...... Of course, it is the position of the Vietnamese sniper.

So the sniper rifle in my hand fired another bullet...... At this time, the accuracy of the sniper rifle showed its usefulness again.

Perhaps it was the sniper rifles that played a role in suppressing the fire of the Vietnamese positions, and by this time several people from the engineering unit had already rushed to the road bridge. However, what makes me a little helpless is...... It seems that the fighters still have to climb from the bridge to the bottom of the bridge......

Originally, I thought it would be ...... This bombed the bridge, holding a few explosive bags and pulling them on the bridge deck, didn't the "boom" end?

Later, I learned that this was not the case, the bridge was made of reinforced concrete, and it was one meter thick, so strong that even if a mortar blew it up, it could only make a white spot...... However, the bridges in important parts of the war years must also be built stronger, otherwise it will be the same as if there were no shells that could blow up with a few shells.

So this caused us a lot of trouble, and if we wanted to blow up the bridge, we had to detonate the internal charge on the piers...... This is also the work of the five consecutive days: this highway bridge has a total of three nodes, one node on the south bank, one node on the north bank, the middle node is a bridge pier, and the three nodes are connected and supported by arch bridges...... So don't think about it, the key to blasting lies in the middle pier.

In the past few days, the 5th Engineer Company has already injected the medicine room on the pier of the stone arch to charge the internal charge, and what they have to do is to ignite this internal medicine room......

However, this is easier said than done.

The reason is that at this time, the Vietnamese army had already discovered the intentions of our army...... The Vietnamese army was not a fool either, and they quickly judged from the sappers who rushed up one after another of our army that our army was going to carry out artificial detonation. Their aim was to occupy the highway bridge and ensure the transportation of the troops, so of course it would not be so easy for our troops to do so...... So more than a dozen AK firepower were concentrated together and used to block the engineering units of our army.

On the other hand, the engineering units of our army ...... Even if he was able to rush to the bridge with tactical movements, he was sacrificed one by one under the guns of the Vietnamese army because he had to put a rope to climb down the bridge pier...... After all, compared to the Vietnamese army, those fighters who climbed down the rope were too obvious.

One by one, the warriors fell on the bridge, or were hit on the ropes and fell into the deep stream below. Although the sapper soldiers rushed forward one after another, it was still in vain.

We seem to ...... Only wait for the moment when the Vietnamese army's bullets are finished. (To be continued......)
