Chapter 914: Artillery Support

No one has ever been able to resist the mysterious forces from the East...... Before Qi Lin could react, several high-speed flying arc-shaped white lights appeared in the shot, and then, accurately hit the bunker located on the cliff!

Although he couldn't hear the sound, Qi Lin seemed to be able to feel the entire mountain shaking from the violent explosion......

The seemingly impregnable bunkers on the front were reduced to ruins in an instant, and the soldiers of the Revolutionary Union took the opportunity to pour into the pass.

"It's a BR-5 heavy howitzer with a caliber of two hundred and eighty millimeters, a shell weighing 245 kilograms, and a maximum range of ten kilometers. Although the large forces of the Revolutionary Alliance had not yet arrived, the entire Sword Pavilion area was already shrouded in the range of their artillery units. ”

The BR-5 has naturally heard of the name Qi Lin, this thing has appeared in the Second World War, it is the largest caliber artillery of the Soviet Army, the weight of the whole gun is nearly 19 tons, and it is placed on a tracked gun carriage...... In terms of destructive power alone, the BR-5 heavy howitzer is not inferior to the G49 Gauss sniper equipped by the mastermind with the "Thor's hammer".

After passing through the pass, there are two roads to go to Jianmen Pass, one is the "Jinniu Gorge Plank Road" built in ancient times, and the other is the Jianmenguan tunnel dug out in modern times.

The Jinniu Gorge plank road had been blown up by the organization at the first time when the forward defensive position fell, and it was impassable at all, and the Beijing-Kunming Highway connecting the Jianmenguan Tunnel had become the only choice for the Revolutionary Union.

The Beijing-Kunming Highway was also known as National Highway 108 in the old era, and because this area was not directly bombed by nuclear bombs, this section of the road is relatively well preserved, and the road condition is indeed much easier to walk than the steep mountains, but it also means that it is much less difficult to organize to build defenses on the road than on the cliffs.

Barricades, minefields, bunkers, automatic sentry machine guns...... These were just the bare essentials, and the group even installed a heavy cast-iron gate at the mouth of the tunnel, which was thick enough to withstand several bombardments from the BR-5 heavy howitzer.

No sooner had the vanguard of the Revolutionary Union rushed onto the road than they came under heavy fire, and after dropping hundreds of corpses, they knocked out the nearest sentry machine guns and barricades with anti-materiel weapons, rocket launchers, and man-made guided missiles, and then they went headlong into the minefield—

The troops were organized to plant a new type of anti-infantry mine on the road, which was inexpensive and simple to bury, and could cause great damage to unprotected and lightly armored targets. The mine is triggered by an infrared sensing device, after being triggered, the disc-shaped mine body will bounce up from the top of the base, fly into the air about one meter high, and then launch thousands of penetrating steel balls around, the effective killing radius of the steel balls is 50 meters, but if the steel balls hit the vital parts from 100 meters away, it still has a high lethality rate...... The most important point is that in addition to the surrounding area, the mine also fires a small number of steel balls diagonally downward, so that even those who lie on the ground in time will not be spared.

The anti-infantry mines strangled more than a hundred soldiers of the Revolutionary Union who broke into the minefield, and also temporarily restrained the fierce offensive of the Revolutionary Union - although the cannon fodder of these vanguard teams have been drugged, and some of them have even reached the standard of lethality, but as the most basic human being, there is still a trace of the most basic sanity, and if you want to use your body to go to the mine, I am afraid that few people have that kind of courage.

The soldiers of the Revolutionary Union waited in front of the minefield for about seven or eight minutes, and finally waited for two of their own power armors, and then directly let the power armor enter the minefield - anyway, the steel balls fired by the anti-infantry mines could not penetrate the hard armor plates.

The two power armors stepped into the minefield side by side, and the soldiers of the Revolutionary Union followed suit, but they kept a distance of more than fifty meters from the power armor for fear of being killed by the mines triggered by the power armor.

The two power armors quickly passed through a minefield more than 500 meters deep, triggering hundreds of anti-infantry mines along the way, and as for the infantry who followed behind, only two of them were injured by the sputtered steel balls because they followed too closely, and the others all passed through the minefield unscathed.

At the end of the minefield were the ruins of several pillboxes, which had just been carpet-bombarded by Revolutionary artillery fire, and all the defending units of the organization had been killed by heavy artillery, and even the tanks and armored vehicles that were lying in the middle of the road had been destroyed.

"Stay vigilant, keep going—don't stop, keep going—" A junior officer rushed to the ruins of the bunker that was still smoking black smoke with a light machine gun, and shouted to the soldiers behind him, these officers were also cannon fodder, but unlike ordinary soldiers, the drugs they used were of a slightly higher grade, although they would also make people in a state of high euphoria, but it would not affect normal brain thinking, and it was just right to be used as a front-line commander who needed to charge.

It's just that the low-ranking officer stood on the ruins for less than a second, and with a deafening gunshot, his entire upper body disappeared in an instant, leaving only half of his body below the waist, which stood still for a moment and then fell to one side, a large amount of blood sprayed all over the ground.

There was almost no delay in the gunfire, and the snipers were so close that the soldiers of the Revolutionary Union immediately raised their guns and aimed them at the hillside on the right.

On the left side of the road is a vertical cliff that makes it impossible to have an ambush, while on the right side is a steep slope that stretches for several kilometers, and the top of the slope is about forty or fifty meters above the road surface, making it an excellent ambush site.

After the gunshots, a large number of soldiers stood up from the top of the slope and began to shoot at the Revolutionary Union troops on the road, and the Revolutionary Union troops were also desperately fighting back at the organization under heavy fire.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties, but because the organization was in a commanding position, it had to have a slight advantage, and on the other hand, on the side of the Revolutionary Union, except for a few pillbox ruins, there was hardly any cover on the road that could be used as shelter, and the best way to get into the shooting dead spots on the hillside was to rush through the rain of bullets and rush to the foot of the hillside.

There were probably more than 200 soldiers who did this, but in the end, only three or four people managed to rush to the bottom of the slope, and as soon as these three or four people got into the dead corner, they immediately took out the laser locator and inserted it under the hillside.

A positioning laser, imperceptible to the naked eye, soared into the sky and into the clouds.

"Error 10 meters, northeast, request artillery support!"

……

Not long after the coordinates were issued, several heavy artillery shells fell on the hillside, directly killing all the organized troops on the position on the top of the slope, and the few Revolutionary Union soldiers who fired laser positioning were also smashed into flesh by the large pieces of rubble that rolled down from the hillside.

"The threat is lifted, move forward! Keep moving! If anyone is cowardly and afraid of battle, they will be executed on the spot! Follow me! ”

The previous officer was sniped, and a second officer immediately took his place, and rushed towards the tunnel with the group of Revolutionary Union soldiers, whose morale had become extremely fanatical due to the drugs.
