Chapter 7: No Conscience Cannon?

Chen Shen's favorite reward is actually not simple, and there is a reason why no one took it or was gnawed down.

And the main reason is...... The costs and benefits are disproportionate.

This is a sweep order, and the bounty price is only 10,000 US dollars, but the scale of its mission is huge.

Clearing a gang of militants on the hill of Wan Ho Nai---- or bandits.

According to the information given with the bounty, the total strength of the bandit village was about 20 people, and it did not belong to any force, but a group of gunmen who were driven out by the Northern Shan State Army from the vicinity of Mongka and blocked by the Burmese army in the Mengku camp.

For the time being, they make a living from very primitive roadblock robberies and kidnappings, and their main customers are ordinary vehicles on the Wan Aitao and Dong Tart traffic lines.

Yes, they don't dare to attack anyone with a background, because that would really lead to death.

Therefore, the ordinary villagers in the surrounding area are unlucky.

They wanted to resist, but no matter how much Wan Henai cooked, there were still 20 guns and more than 20 people, and it was almost impossible to fight them.

As for looking for the military, asking for help from major forces?

Don't talk about it, these bandits are not in their way, who wants to care?

So, they had no choice but to put up a bounty ---- a measly $10,000.

Probably because they knew that the money was too small, so they also put forward an additional condition, that is:

If the bandits of Wanhe Nai can be eliminated, Menglang Buddhist Temple will overtake the victims for free......

Under this condition, if someone picks it up, there will be ghosts.

Even if it is a small group like Chen Shen and them, theoretically speaking, if they really try to do Bao Yongxiang or Bai Suocheng, the cost performance is higher than that of Wan Henai---- at least they still have two SVDs.

However, Chen Shen's thinking is different.

If others think they can't do it, they think they can do it.

He first spent 10 yuan at the front desk to borrow a computer with Internet access, found a topographic map of the neighborhood and roughly copied it, and then returned to the room with the map and began to work on the map.

"See the battlefield through the drawings", this is the assessment he had to pass in the military topography class in his previous life, so at this time, it seems that there is no difficulty.

In just a few minutes, he already had the basic situation of the Wanhe Nai camp and the surrounding terrain and landform in his mind.

But of course, it is not so simple to make a battle plan.

Just as he was pondering, Shi Dakai on the side came to persuade him to retreat again.

"Are we really going to fight Wanhonai? Look at the information on the bounty, there are a lot of them....."

"Moreover, we have never fought this kind of battle at all, and we have a few guns and grenades in our hands to fight their stockade?"

"Forget it, even if we want to be mercenaries, we have to find a better mission, and we can't send them to death!"

As soon as he said this, even Li Bang and Bao Qi, who had always stood firmly on Chen Shen's side, hesitated a little.

After all, judging from the current situation, to fight Wan Henai is really to send him to death.

"Brother Chen, what do you think, can you fight?"

Bao Qi asked tentatively.

"If you can fight, you can definitely fight, give me a synthetic brigade, don't talk about Wan Henai, Bang Kang can fight it casually."

"Isn't the problem a lack of firepower?"

What Chen Shen said is a very practical problem, the main reason why no one has done this bounty is that the reward of the bounty limits the amount of firepower invested.

If it's not 10,000 US dollars, it's 100,000, 1 million, you see if anyone is going to fight.

Just pull a set of 107 fires, and you can beat those bandits to the ground.

However, the export price of a rocket from 107 fires costs 6,000 yuan, which is equivalent to 1,000 knives, and in the hands of the mercenary group, it has to be doubled by 5 times.

The reward of 10,000 knives is enough for two shots.......

"What then?"

Bao Qi asked worriedly.

Chen Shen finally raised his head, and at this moment, he already had a preliminary plan in his heart.

"There is a way. On the other side, there are only about two dozen people at most, and if we can inflict 30% ----that is, six or seven people in the first wave of the offensive, we can directly break up their morale, and the battlefield can easily turn into a one-sided harvest. ”

"And to achieve this, we have two ways of thinking."

"The first is to increase the firepower."

"Second, improve your tactics."

"Of course, improving tactics won't solve everything. Your level is too low, and you will not be able to meet the requirements of special operations without long-term training, and besides, we also lack special operations equipment, and it is impossible to achieve a large casualty ratio in open terrain. ”

"Then, we must prioritize the use of our brains from the area of increasing firepower."

"But we don't have the money."

Shi Dakai poured another scoop of cold water on him.

Yes, if there is no money, where will the firepower come from?

"Some firepower, but it's not as expensive as you think......"

Chen Shen knocked on the table and continued:

"First of all, the premise is that our requirements for firepower must meet two points."

"First, the range is long enough, at least more than 150 meters, because this is the farthest distance that the other side can detect us with the naked eye in the jungle."

"Second, we must have a basic accuracy, and we can't blow up everything at once."

"Third, the destructive power should be strong, the camp of 20 people, the central area covers more than 100 meters in width, and it is basically impossible to do damage by throwing grenades."

"So, based on those conditions, and our own budget, I think we've been able to rule out some options."

"Gun grenades don't work, they don't have enough power."

"We can't afford bazookas; Military artillery, we can't afford to rent either. ”

"So...... There's only one option. ”

"No conscience."

"No conscience?"

The three people on the other side were shocked.

After all, it was taught by a teacher, and they had more or less heard of the prestige of the conscience cannon, but because of the special background of the times and geographical relations, in northern Myanmar in 2009, this kind of antique thing is indeed still not used.

Because most of the powers have easy access to obsolete arms from various sources, they have no incentive or need to research homemade weapons.

Of course, the situation is different now, and now Chen Shen needs this kind of cheap, easy-to-use, and unexpected thing.

Looking at the expressions of the three of them, Chen Shen thought for a moment, and then continued:

"It's certainly not a simple cannon without conscience, the accuracy of the grenadier and the projectile distance are not enough."

"In this way, we will first take out all the money and go to purchase some equipment."

"You go to the market first, can you find a 12-liter gas canister---- remember, it is the one with an outer diameter of 249 mm, if there is, rent 4 of them."

"It's rent! Not to buy! Let's just say that we want gas, and the canister will be returned later, and if you can save some money, you can save some money....."

"Then, you go to the construction site in the north to see if there are any cast iron drains with DN250 specifications, I remember when we came, they were building the sewer system, and theoretically, the DN250 pipes should be standard."

"Finally, we found a repair shop and borrowed their welding equipment."

"If these things can be done smoothly, then we will have no problem winning this bounty......."
