In Vietnam during the rainy season, it is very late in the sky, and even when it is dawn, it is only gray.

But...... The Yue devils, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, obviously couldn't wait for the sky to dawn, so they launched an attack on us at six in the morning.

As I expected, the Yue Devils did not attack during the night...... It means that their attack at dawn will be particularly fierce, and they have prepared for a night, so they will show what they say!

The first thing that came was piles of shells...... The shells came from several directions at the same time, the positive slope was long-range artillery fire, which was howitzers and cannons fired from the direction of Vietnam, and the anti-slope direction was mortars...... There are four directions in the east, west, north and south, all of which are bombarded in a chaotic manner according to our 581 heights......

Some people may wonder, why did this positive slope also blow up, didn't our army not occupy and repair fortifications on that side?

On that side, there is indeed no occupation or fortifications, and it is facing the long-range artillery fire of the Yue devils...... It was to find death to occupy that side, it was useless to repair the fortifications, and no matter how strong the tunnel was, it could not withstand a few cannons of long-range artillery fire, and one of the boss's shells flew from a long distance...... Isn't it possible to learn the impulse of an object in physics? The impulse is directly proportional to mass and velocity, so there is no doubt that the impulse of a long-range artillery shell is much greater than that of a mortar...... This means that its shells tend to burrow into the soil and burst open, which is quite damaging to the tunnel.

On the other hand, mortars with much smaller shells will not do much, mortars are mainly aimed at infantry, and their shells generally explode on the surface...... In this way, more shrapnel can be fired to achieve the purpose of killing and injuring infantry. But there are advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that the shells are not very harmful to the tunnel.

However, there are exceptions. That is, mortar shells with time fuses...... Time fuses have been used before. It exploded after a delay of a few seconds. This fuse is generally used to bomb targets in the jungle against tunnels...... This is reflected in the fact that its shells do not detonate on the surface, but only explode after being smashed into the earth.

This will indeed bring a certain threat to the tunnel, but first, the devils do not carry many such fuses, and second, the mortar shells are not very powerful, so the damage to the tunnel fortifications we have built is very limited.

It's not ...... The mortars from all directions of the Vietnamese devils bombarded us for nearly ten minutes, almost turning over the soil layer of the surface position, and only damaging a small tunnel......

After the war, Zhang Zuoliang went to see the small tunnel that was damaged by the bombing. Because his two old subordinates were also his fellow countrymen, he used to see if he could bring back some relics to their families.

What puzzled him was that the small pit was a good structure on the outside, but it was blown up inside, apparently from the inside.

The mouth of the tunnel is driven down the slope, how can this mortar shell hit the inside of the tunnel?

Think about it later...... Thinking that it might be because of the ricochet, that is, the mortar shell that was most likely equipped with a time fuse, and when it fell to the ground, it hit the stone and changed direction, so it catapulted into the tunnel and exploded in the tunnel.

It may be a small percentage, but that's what the battlefield is...... A lot of things that seem incredible are just going to happen. According to Zhang Zuoliang's words...... Even if your life fails, you can drink cold water and stuff your teeth!

After ten minutes, the sound of the cannon subsided...... In fact, the sound of artillery did not slow down. Because the artillery of our army was also powerful at this time, their target was of course the artillery of the Yue devils. You must know that although the number of artillery fire of our army in this local area is not as good as that of the Vietnamese army, its advantage lies in the fact that the logistics supply line can be guaranteed, that is, there are more artillery shells than the Vietnamese army. What's more, the artillery fire of the Yue devils is all concentrated on our 581 heights, so when will our army's artillery fire not be fought at this time?

I think this is also the reason why the more devil weishenme only fired for ten minutes.

Then the Yue devils soon rushed up in pieces......

"Report, enemy spotted in the east!"

"Enemy found in the west!"

……

All right! I don't have to listen to it, I know that the Yue devils are coming from all directions.

But from the very beginning, I knew that our defensive focus was on the north and south...... The north and south sides are positive and anti-slopes, and the terrain on these two sides is open and conducive to the deployment of soldiers, while on the east and west sides, the place is steep and narrow, so let them climb and only one platoon can come up, and in the end they still have to go around the north and south sides to attack us...... So most of the enemies on both sides are just distracting us or using mortars to provide cover for other Vietnamese troops.

It's just that the devils in the north and south give us quite a headache!

It's not ...... After the sound of the cannons, I drilled out of the tunnel and looked at it, and the black pressure in the hazy morning fog was full of Vietnamese devils, and I don't know what they were doing to avenge or to strengthen their courage during the day, all of them were carrying bayonets on the M16s and rushed to charge towards the 581 heights. This is true in the front, and it is also true in the back...... Roughly calculated, there were two battalions sent by the first wave of the Yue devils to attack.

"All of them!" I ordered: "The first platoon is responsible for the defense of the south side, the second platoon and the machine gun platoon are responsible for the north side, and the third platoon is to keep an eye on both sides as a reserve!" ”

"Yes!" The platoon commanders answered the call and entered their respective positions.

Our tactics now...... In fact, it is a back-to-back style of play.

The so-called back-to-back is when two troops protect each other's backs...... In other words, if the south side cannot be held, then the back of the second platoon will be exposed to the enemy, and if the north side cannot be defended, the back of the first platoon will also be exposed to the enemy's guns.

The north side is more important for a simple reason...... The Yue devils in the south have to climb over the hilltop position to reach us, and what about the north...... As long as the devil picks up the gun, he can shoot at the back of a platoon.

So...... On the northern side, we had to try to keep the Vietnamese troops out of range, so that we could cover the backs of a platoon and let them deal with the enemy in the south without any worries.

If this had been before last night, it would have been almost an impossible task, because the Vietnamese army has the M16 in their hands and we have the AK47 in their hands, so the distance of the range is obvious...... How could it be possible to keep the Vietnamese army out of range?

But...... This became possible after getting the ammunition depot of the Vietnamese army.

The killer feature, of course, is the cannon platoon...... At this time, of course, I didn't dare to put the Yue devil closer and fight again, just kidding...... If you get closer, what is the long-range range of American-style weapons for?

So, when the Yue devil was close to the foot of our army's mountain, that is, more than 500 meters away from our army's defense line, he shouted: "Fight!" ”。

Some might say...... Isn't the range of this Devil M16 six hundred meters? It's already 500 meters, so it's still out of range?

First of all...... The position of the first platoon was more than 100 meters behind our position, and the Vietnamese troops were 500 meters away from our defensive line, that is, more than 600 meters away from the first platoon.

Secondly, there was a lot of fog everywhere in the early morning, and the sky was gray, so that even those who were more than six hundred meters away could not see anyone who was six hundred meters away...... If we look down from the mountain, we can only see some vague figures!

But for us, the figure is enough...... We're not short of bullets, are we? So all kinds of bullets and grenades poured down towards the black shadow in the fog.

This time, the gunshots were more complicated:

M16 with the equipment...... The main guns with this kind of guns are the newly formed machine gun platoons, anyway, their original 56 and a half will not play a role, and it would be much better to replace them with M16.

There is also a Soviet-style AK47...... Someone said that the range of this AK47 is only 300 meters? Can you hit 500 meters? It's another thing whether this is accurate or not, the AK47 bullet is still lethal at a distance of a thousand meters, so a rain of bullets passed...... A blind cat can also touch a few dead mice!

There are also various machine guns of the Soviet-American style...... Needless to say, the range of this machine gun can be obtained regardless of the Soviet-American style, and this bullet is still in pieces, which is much sharper than a rifle.

The most powerful ones are the two grenade launchers...... Good guys, the effective range of this thing is 1500 meters, and although the theoretical rate of fire is more than 300 rounds per minute, the actual fight is about 30 or 40 rounds per minute. The point is that this thing is powerful...... Seeing where there was a bunch of figures in the fog, the troops swept in a row, and then saw an explosion of "boom...... You must know that the radius of the grenade is fifteen meters, so if this grenade hits down, there are few people who can stand in that area.

For the first time, I felt the benefits of not having to worry about bullets, and at the same time, I also experienced the thrill of fighting with American-style equipment, and I also understood that the U.S. military attaches so much importance to logistics supply lines...... Can this not be taken seriously? American-style equipment is ammunition! Like now...... In the case of sufficient ammunition, even if we face several times the Vietnamese army, we can use bullets to block them from a long distance and abuse them, but the Vietnamese army has nothing to do with us, which is basically a collision of bullets, grenades and flesh and blood.

Even...... The Vietnamese army in front of us is also equipped with long-range American-style weapons, what if all they have AK47s in their hands? I'm afraid there is no way to pose a threat to us!

With screams and bloody arrows in the fog, the Vietnamese attack finally slowed down under our powerful firepower...... We don't know how many people we killed, only that the moaning and screaming in the fog came one after another, but no one dared to come to the rescue.

The fighters did not cheer...... Because everyone is thinking about a question: we are using the American-style equipment of the more devils, what if it is us who charges? Is this also the case?

Perhaps, this is the reason why the vigilance of the Vietnamese troops stationed on the 581 heights last night was not high! (To be continued......)
