Chapter 131: Incendiary bombs

"Brothers of the Vietnamese army!" I held a small bullhorn and shouted in Vietnamese to the vent at the bottom of the cliff, shouting and walking as I walked, like a general who had won a battle.

Saying...... My confidence comes entirely from having the idea to annihilate these Vietnamese troops, and at this moment...... I even felt that the lives of the Vietnamese soldiers in those tunnels were in my hands.

I hate to admit it, but it's really nice to be able to decide the life and death of an enemy, and it's like there's a saying. Sit firmly in the general's tent and win thousands of miles away...... Even I sometimes wonder if I'm being carried away by this power that holds the life and death of my enemies in my hands.

But...... In any case, it is better for the enemy to die than to die yourself.

"Comrades of the Vietnamese army!" I continued to shout to the Vietnamese devils below: "Our Sino-Vietnamese friendship is deep and righteous, and we have been comrades and brothers for decades, starting from the founding of the Vietnamese Young Revolutionary Comrades Association by Comrade Nguyen Aiguo (formerly known as Nguyen Bi Thanh, named Nguyen Aiguo in his early revolutionary activities, later renamed Ho Chi Minh) in Vietnam's first Communist Party member, to China helping you drive out US imperialism. But...... Ignoring our Sino-Vietnamese friendship, your Le Duan clique has stubbornly led you onto the road of militarism......"

Then there was a lot of bars, bars, bars, and bars, and I was a little wordy at this time, but I had nothing to do anyway, and I was so majestic and confident that I might be able to restore the morale of the soldiers.

Do our fighters need to regain their morale? Of course, it is, especially Company Commander Wu's troops, which can be said to have sacrificed more than 50 people but didn't even touch the edge of the devil...... Isn't that discouraging? So it's sometimes necessary to be prestigious.

Shouting and shouting got a little carried away. Or subconsciously feel that Vietnamese is awkward. So as soon as he accidentally said slippery, it became Chinese: "Vietnamese comrades! Don't resist any longer. You're surrounded! We already have a way to attack the tunnels, this is your chance to zuihou, if you don't surrender, don't blame us for being polite......"

Depend on...... When I finished saying this, I suddenly realized that I was using the common shouting of traitors to the Communist Party on TV and in movies: "Communist comrades! Don't resist ...... again."

What's more important is that this sentence is still shouted in Chinese...... Thinking of this, I couldn't help but faint, the whole shouting was so majestic, how could I show my feet in a sentence of zuihou.

Peeking at the warriors behind them, they all held back a smile.

In other words, in this era, although there is no TV and no Internet. But these guys have watched a lot of revolutionary movies, so where do you still know what kind of line my zuihou sentence is, but I'm embarrassed to cheer when I'm majestic.

Seeing how hard they looked, I couldn't help but scold: "What are you laughing at?" What's so funny?! ”

It's just that it's okay for me not to say this, as soon as I said it, the whole audience hugged their stomachs and laughed, and even Company Commander Luo leaned forward and backwards with laughter, and I was the only one standing there stupidly...... The military hat on his head is worn crookedly, the spear is slanted on his back, and he is holding a small horn in his hand......

I shouted in my heart. simply grabbed the horn and shouted fiercely to the Yue devils below: "Give you three minutes to come out and surrender, our Chinese soldiers will treat the prisoners leniently!" If you don't come out, you won't have a chance! ”

"Da Da Da ......" responded to me with a burst of gunshots.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart: Who is being provoked today. Why don't you please both sides.

Although the Yue Devil seemed to have already answered us, I still waited a full three minutes.

As we expected, no one came out.

In fact...... I also knew that it was impossible for anyone to come out, one reason was that the Vietnamese troops in the tunnels did not believe that we really had a way to attack them, and they must have thought that we were scaring them. Another reason...... Even if a few people believe it, are scared, and want to come out and surrender, will he be able to come out? As long as there is an act of surrender...... I'm afraid that I will be discovered by other Yue devils in the tunnel and shot for traitors.

If that's the case, then I can't help it.

Watching the hands of my watch jump to zuihou for a second, I waved at the fighters...... And the offensive began.

The first thing to drop was a batch of incendiary bombs.

Some might say...... This mortar shell can be blown up without firing it with a mortar? The answer is yes.

There are two insurances for this mortar shell, one is the transportation insurance, as the name suggests, this insurance is to prevent the ammunition from being detonated due to collision during transportation. The other is the launch insurance, which is to prevent the shell from accidentally detonating on the ground if the gunner does not hold the shell firmly after the transport insurance is lifted.

In other words, if these two fuses are not lifted, the fuse on the head of the shell will not explode even if it touches it.

The mortar firing process begins with the removal of the metal pin from the shell (transport insurance) and then the shell is loaded into the mortar chamber...... When the shell slides into the chamber and hits the bottom, it releases the firing safety on its own, and the mortar shell explodes as soon as the fuse hits the ground.

How do I know this? This was not taught by the old man, but learned by watching an American war movie...... This is a good thing in American films, the battlefield depicted is very realistic, and there are American GIs who use this mortar shell as a grenade when they don't have enough grenades.

Knowing the process, then it is not difficult to operate.

The fighters had already uninsured the transport of the mortar shells in their hands in advance, and at this time they received my orders...... Just knock the tail of the cannonball to the side and prepare the haode stone...... The launch insurance was also lifted.

The next thing to do was to pick up the shells and throw them down the cliff......

However, the difference is that all of the shells we use are tied to ropes, and the other end of the rope is fixed to the trunk of the tree, and the length of this rope is cut in advance, so that the mortar shells can be thrown out in a semi-circular motion and then hit the ventilation holes in the tunnel below......

Then just a few loud "boom ......" sounds, and those shells exploded.

These shells were all incendiary bombs, and after they were detonated, a large fire burst into flames, and a wave of heat swelled up.

The cliff is full of stones, and you can also point it? The incendiary bomb is filled with incendiary agents, which can be lit on stone, even on steel or water.

In this way, the devils below are bitter, and the vents are all tightly sealed by a fire without exception.

I think they must be wondering at this point...... How can the Chinese soldiers hit this cannon so accurately, their vents are not big in the first place, and they are still on the cliff, how can there be a way to accurately hit the incendiary bombs on this? And it's five vents in a row, 100% hit......

But whether they figure it out or not, no one will give them an answer, and they won't have a chance to get it.

Immediately after that, there were several explosions at the tunnel entrance, and the three tunnel entrances were all tightly sealed by the fire without exception.

I looked at the watch in my hand and waited for a moment, because I knew...... When the devil encounters this situation, the most likely thing is to remove the stone blocked on the ventilation hole.

The mouth of the pit and the vents were sealed by fire, weren't they? If they continue like this, they will have to die out, so they must unblock the ventilation holes.

But that's exactly what I wanted...... Seeing that the time was almost up, I waved my hand, and the next wave of attacks began again.

This batch was dropped by explosives packets.

The explosives bags we carry are generally eight pounds, so that they can be easily carried during the march, and then integrated according to the situation when they need to be used. At this time, the soldiers gritted their teeth with hatred for the Yue devils in the tunnel, so they made these explosives bags into more than 20 catties, if they were not worried that the rope would not be able to bear so much, they were afraid that they would increase it......

Now, as soon as the soldiers got my order, they pulled the fuse and threw it down...... Of course, because of the ropes, the explosives were suspended in the air one by one, and they were facing the vents.

I think...... This time, the Vietnamese soldiers who were responsible for cleaning the ventilation holes should have understood the reason why we were able to fight so accurately, but it was useless for him to understand, the explosive bag was hanging outside and "sizzling" and smoking, and they couldn't reach or touch it, so they could only watch the fuse shorten inch by inch...... Then there was a loud bang......

The whole cliff shook as if frightened, and the fire turned into smoke and dust, the smoke of the explosion and the dust of the shattered stones.

I believe that the Vietnamese troops hiding in the tunnels must have felt uncomfortable at this time, because the rubble they blocked at the vents, and the rubble that had not been cleaned up in a hurry was blown up by this explosive pack, and it would shoot like pieces of shrapnel everywhere in the tunnel...... A faint scream from below proved my idea.

But I'm not going to give these more devils any respite...... With a wave of my hand, I sent down another batch of incendiary bombs.

This time, the incendiary bomb was a little different, and the fuse of the incendiary bomb was activated last time...... The so-called trigger fuse simply means that it explodes when it hits. The reason why the trigger fuse can be used is because the vent is blocked at that time, and this drop can hit something and trigger the shell.

But this time...... The debris of the vent had already blown the explosives into the tunnel, so it was likely that the trigger fuse would not work.

So I used the time fuse...... As the name suggests, the time fuse is like a grenade that automatically detonates after a delay of a few seconds. This thing was originally intended for mortars to fight in the jungle......

The problem with a fuse trigger fired in the jungle is that it is likely to be detonated by hitting a tree branch before it hits the target, or even explode above one's head, but a time-fused shell does not have this problem.

Fortunately, there is this thing, otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble when dealing with the vents. (To be continued......)
