Chapter 372: Captive

The sound of explosions tore at people's eardrums, the hot wind from the high-energy explosives scorched the hairs, the air trembled like a boiling cauldron, and all the soldiers present hid in their bunkers, hoping that the almost never-ending bombardment would pass.

Li Mu's face was a little gloomy, those people in the third row were at least suspected of dereliction of duty, and they might even have behind-the-scenes deals with the Hindustani. The date of the changing of the guard is not often fixed, but is randomly assigned by the battalion and announced one day in advance. It is not unreasonable that the Hindustani would attack by such a coincidence as soon as they arrived at the base.

The third platoon, if not leaking the news to the Hindustani, at least turned a blind eye to the Hindustani, who were laying out artillery battlefields under their noses.

He crawled forward and climbed behind the blast wall to observe the artillery positions in the distance. His eyesight was amazing, and he was able to see clearly the artillery positions five or six kilometers away.

More than a dozen heavily armed Hindustani are operating two light towed rocket launchers, and even a large group. The prototype of this rocket artillery was the Zhuxia Type 63 107-mm towed rocket launcher, but now it has caused great trouble for the army of Zhuxia. This weapon was simple in structure and easy to operate among the rebel forces of the various colonies.

"Second squad, go and operate the mortars arranged in the base and counterattack!"

Each stronghold is equipped with two 120mm heavy mortars, after all, air support is not always available. Mortar shells use laser guidance, the accuracy is within ten meters, as long as the muzzle is aimed in the approximate direction, the operation is simple, and no long training is required. It's just that the requirements for laser pointers are extremely high.

Because mortar shells do not fly fast, laser pointers are required to use lasers to calibrate targets for long periods of time. Experienced snipers will keep an eye on the enemy's laser pointers and snipe, which is a job with a high mortality rate.

Li Mu held the telescope with the laser designation component in his hand.

"It's up to me to show the target."

His words made all the soldiers look sideways. No officer will ever point out the target. Instead, most officers will assign thorns among their subordinates to do this kind of work, borrowing knives to kill people.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and operate the mortar soon?!"

Under Li Mu's shouting, the soldiers of the second squad ran towards the mortar position with whistling rocket artillery.

The Hindustani will not stay long on the positions of rocket artillery. Although there were no airfields in the vicinity of Zhuxia, fighters and attack aircraft taking off from the highland airfields were on combat readiness over the Deccan Plateau in order to provide air support at any time. Thirty-seven kilometres from here, there is also an artillery battery stationed at the first outpost, where 155-mm howitzers can also provide support, but it will take time.

They will be gone in 10 minutes at most.

Since these Hindustani people chose to give him a dismount, Li Mu was naturally not ready to let them leave with all their beards and tails, and was ready to give them a ruthless one.

He held up the telescope and turned on the telescope's magnetic field imaging function. In the vast expanse of the wilderness, there are only a few common animals except for the Hindustani people on the rocket artillery positions. The wolves, the foxy fox and the Billis rabbit, frightened by the explosion of the rockets, scurried about.

But Li Mu didn't believe that there were no Hindustan snipers ambushing in this barren grass. It is impossible for them to launch a deliberate attack without prior knowledge of the weapons in the base.

The only weapon available at the base that could counter the rocket artillery position was the mortar, and it was impossible for them not to arrange snipers.

He held his rifle in his hand, raised his binoculars, and aimed them at the rocket artillery position in the distance. He had a very good perception, and immediately felt a malicious gaze.

Someone had their eye on him.

Li Mu raised the rifle in his hand and fired a shot at the source of malice.

There was a tremor in the earthy yellow grass, and after a moment it calmed down. The sniper had already been killed by him.

If the sniper knew that he was aiming at a master who was close to the second level with keen sense, he would have regretted that he had taken such an undisguised aim.

Without perceiving the sniper again, Li Mu directly marked the laser to the rocket artillery position in the distance. The Hindustani, who operated the rocket launchers, already knew that the snipers were being shot by the snipers and panicked to leave the positions that had become very dangerous.

At this moment, one mortar shell after another whizzed away, and under the instructions of the laser, the fins were adjusted, and the trajectory was constantly changed in the air.

"Boom!"

The 120mm mortar shells were devastating to a simply arranged rocket artillery position, with flashes of light rising into the sky, followed by a dull explosion, and bits and pieces of human body and stumps were lifted into the sky by the shock wave.

Li Mu extended the laser pointer to the remnants of the Hindustani. The second squad had apparently tried their best to reload the ammunition, and the subsequent mortar shells whizzed away, plowing the Hindustani hard.

Li Mu ordered the second shift to stop loading through the walkie-talkie.

"First class, come out with me and catch a few Hindustani."

The shelling just now established enough prestige for Li Mu among his subordinates, and as soon as his words fell, he didn't need more orders, and drove out the two armored off-road vehicles in the base in one shift.

The Hindustani are stationed in only a few small tribes in the Ladakh Mountains, so naturally they do not have a strong infrastructure capacity, and there are only a few trails in the wilderness that are trodden by sheep. Fortunately, the off-road ability of the armored off-road vehicle is not weak, and although the road is bumpy, the speed of the drive is not satisfactory at all.

galloped all the way, and soon reached the rocket artillery positions of the Hindustani.

There was a strong smell of burnt and bloody blood. The rough tires of the armored SUV ran over a broken leg in a pool of blood and chased in the direction of the Hindustani's retreat.

Li Mu pressed the heavy machine gun fire on the armored off-road vehicle, and a series of tracer bullets whistled away, and the scorching bullet casings swept across the wasteland, splashing a little smoke and dust.

"Shoot or kill, put down your weapons and raise your hands!"

He shouted at the Hindustani people in Hindustani.

The wounded Hindustani, with their faces full of ferocity and hatred, raised their rifles to fight back.

"Boom!"

A 12.7mm large-caliber machine gun shot through his torso, opening a basin-sized wound in it. Li Mu used a burst shot to shoot half of the Hindustani, all of whom were fanatical followers of Yama, and nothing could stop them from believing in Yama except death.

A squad of soldiers rushed out of the car, knocked them to the ground with the butts of their rifles, and pressed them to the ground.

"Bring it back to the base and torture it to find something useful."
