Chapter 132: Crisis
"Big Bird, drive over and see if the machine gun on the plane can be removed, remember to replace the gun!"
"Poplar, follow and go to the woods to lurk and be on guard."
"The others follow me and ambush me at the rapids."
"The 756 Brigade support is still about 15 kilometers away from us, and we will hold out for at least two more hours!"
"If we lose this battle, we won't get anything."
"If this battle is won, everyone will get rich!"
After confirming that the helicopter crashed, Chen Shen quickly gave an order, and everyone took action to find a suitable location to hide.
Although it is said that the water body should be used as cover, but in fact, not everyone has to hide in the water at the beginning, Chen Shen's plan is to attack from the jungle first, and then after the battle becomes fierce, find a way to use the shallows as cover to fight around the assault boat.
So, they still had to find suitable cover in the woods-ββ especially the right camouflage points.
Chen Shen checked all the way, kicked the poorly hidden and conspicuous ones, and spent five minutes adjusting everyone's positions in place, and from the direction of the river, there was no abnormality.
At the same time, the big bird had already reached the location of the helicopter crash, and the sound of poplars came from Chen Shen's headphones.
"Regiment commander, the machine gun is scrapped and cannot be dismantled, and the barrel is damaged, as if it was hit by a bullet and cannot be used."
"If you don't need it, forget it."
Chen Shen was a little regretful, but he was not too disappointed.
After all, falling from such a height, if the weapon system is not bad, it is lucky, and it is normal for it to be broken.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Poplar spoke again.
"But the rockets of this plane don't seem to be bad to the regiment commander, do you want to remove them?"
"it?!"
"What rockets? They actually loaded rockets?! β
Chen Shen was shocked, he never thought that Nuo Kang would be so arrogant.
Let's not talk about the armed helicopter changed by the lark, after all, this type of helicopter has precedents for being modified in various countries, and it is also very popular with some groups that do not have the qualification of Wuzhi procurement.
Adding a turn-tube machine gun and a small cannon to it is considered a regular operation, but rockets?!
Now the most famous aviation rocket in the world is the old American Hydra 70, that is, the Hydra 70mm rocket, the most classic combat scene of this thing is mounted on the Apache or Longbow Apache, and then strafing the terrorists standing on the roof of the earthen house.
If you have played a game called the Medal of Honor, you will definitely remember that scene deeply-ββ of course, that scene is indeed very representative of the performance characteristics of aviation rockets.
The accuracy is relatively poor, but the range lethality is strong, the distance is long, the number is large, and it is more economical than missiles
The problem is that most of the time you can only see it in the regular army aviation units of various countries.
Rockets for drug lords? What about calves?
Not to mention that the aiming system is difficult to do, it's not easy to buy just to buy it, okay?
"yes, sure there are rockets, I can't read what is written on it."
"Big Bird, come and pick me up!"
Chen Shen decisively gave the order, a distance of a few hundred meters was not far, and 5 minutes later, he had already arrived at the crashed helicopter.
The helicopter crashed directly into the shore shallows and the edge of the woods, the water depth was less than 50 centimeters, and all the passengers in the plane were already dead, and one even hung on a tree.
However, none of them escaped the fate of being replaced.
And the helicopter itself, it turned out to be quite complete.
ββ
Actually, there is nothing particularly strange about this.
Unlike fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters have an accident, as long as the rotors are not completely interrupted, and the impact force of the crash will be greatly reduced under the action of spin.
There are many cases of Black Hawk falling pilots surviving, and even in some cases, losing power and falling from a height of thousands of meters, waiting for the rotor speed to reach the target and pulling it up can even ensure a smooth landing of the plane.
Chen Shen didn't ignore the corpses, but followed the guidance of the poplar tree and looked at the rocket nest on the side of the helicopter.
"Damn, Marat 155H! SNEBοΌ β
He couldn't help but cry out.
At first, he thought that the rocket mentioned by Yang Shu's mouth was something like Lao Maozi's S-8KOM, at least it had to be a magic version.
But I didn't expect that Nuo Kang actually used the standard version!
This thing can be said to be a classic modification scheme for Skylark helicopters, and this weapon payload scheme can be seen on most military versions of the SA316.
It seems that the relationship between Nuo Kang and the militaries of various countries is more delicate and complicated than Chen Shen expected
Chen Shen circled the helicopter and tried to restart the circuit.
But unfortunately, although the fall was not bad, the electronic system of this helicopter was finally broken, and perhaps one of the main cables was broken.
It is impossible to fix such a fault in a short period of time.
It's a shame
Not every rocket is 107 fire, and not every rocket can be excited with an open flame or dry battery.
The SNEB rocket is a pure electric shock ignition system excitation, and a series of safety measures are also designed on the primer, not only to electric, but also to control the ignition protocol with a pre-start program, if the helicopter has no electricity, then there is really no way.
He shook his head and spoke:
"It's useless-ββ at least not."
"When this battle is over, let's find a way to dismantle it and repair it."
"It's better to take the helicopter with you, if it can be repaired, then we are really developed"
In northern Myanmar, if any of the forces brought in a helicopter, and it was still a helicopter with a weapon system, then the status of this force could not be said to have been greatly improved, but should have soared in a straight line.
Probably the only problem is how to convince the other big powers to allow it to keep the helicopter.
ββ
But with the current relationship with the Dongfeng Corps, there is no problem in dealing with others.
After seeing the helicopter, Chen Shen finally checked it, collected all the guns and ammunition and took them away, and after making sure that there were no other supplies, he returned to the predetermined ambush site with Big Bird.
Less than five minutes after they returned, there was a report of the enemy's traces coming out from the poplar tree, which had gone out to investigate.
"Someone is coming."
The poplar's voice was low.
"10 boats, 6 small speedboats, 4 armed cargo ships, at least a hundred people, about 800 meters away from me, 1,500 meters from the ambush position."
"There are also people on the shore, I can't see the number clearly, 200 meters from me, 1000 meters from the ambush position."
Advance by land and water, and scout reconnaissance.
It seems that after the helicopter fell, the other side has also increased its vigilance.
Now it's a bit of a problem.
The ambushed Dongfeng Corps was in a dilemma, if the target on the shore was knocked out first, it would mean that all their ambushes would be exposed.
And if you don't fight, put them closer to a distance, the danger will increase greatly.
The difficulty of ambush warfare has increased dramatically, which has also led to the falter of higher-level strategies.
The strategy has entered the decisive range, and Chen Shen must decide before the opponent continues to advance to the distance of the firefight, whether to escape immediately, gamble on luck, bet on the fact that this assault boat can get rid of the pursuit of the speedboat in the following river with extremely harsh hydrological environment, or stick to the spot and completely subdue the pursuers.
"Commander, what should I do?"
The white dog with a machine gun asked through the walkie-talkie.
"The jungle guerrilla can't be beaten, you have to protect the boat."
"If you want to fight, you must first deal with the opponent's ground forces, but we have too few manpower, and the killing efficiency is too low."
Hearing his words, Chen Shen frowned.
He subconsciously stood up and observed the terrain around him.
The information on the picture seemed to be alive in Chen Shen's mind, and at this moment, a genius-like idea suddenly flashed in his mind.
Yes, the ground forces must be tackled.
Yes, the Dongfeng Corps has too few manpower, and its killing efficiency in the jungle is too low.
But the problem is that killing and killing does not necessarily have to be done with people and guns.
Or take a step back, to solve the ground forces, it is not necessarily necessary to rely on "killing".
Chen Shen spread out the map, carefully observed the terrain, and combined with the GPS in his hand, he made an astonishing discovery.
The rapids where they are located actually have two branches, one leading northwest to the north, and the other to the southeast leading to Jingdong.
In the middle is a triangular area of dense jungle, with an area of about 5 square kilometers.
In order for the enemy's ground forces to get close to their own side and reach the rapids where they are ambushing, they must cross this triangle.
They will travel in this area for at least 30 minutes.
How long does it take for a fire to ignite with a large amount of accelerant and a strong westerly wind?
The two large barrels of oil that I touched from the oil tanker in my hand were useful.
At that time, I was really just worried about the lack of fuel, but I also had a hidden mind in my heart.
If you really can't do it, and you really have no way out, you will set fire to the mountain.
Now, the situation is actually more favorable.
He didn't need to burn a large area, just take advantage of the west wind and burn the triangle.
No longer hesitating, Chen Shen immediately ordered:
"Shortfoot, big bird, take two people, carry the oil drum!"
"Go 500 meters to the north, then set fire in a north-south direction centered on the 500-meter position!"
"All the oil is used up to ensure that the fire starts as quickly as possible!"
Hearing his words, everyone was subconsciously stunned.
But then, everyone immediately felt the madness, boldness, and ingenuity of the plan!
How long does it take for a forest fire to spread?
According to the data, it takes at least 15 minutes to develop from a small cluster of Mars to a visible flame in the initial stage, which is the stage when Mars begins to spread.
It takes at least 30 minutes to go from a flame to a visible fire.
ββ
However, after the fire began to spread, the progress of the fire became unstoppable.
In just a few minutes, it can develop into a fire big enough to engulf any vegetation!
With the blessing of the wind, the fire can spread at a speed of more than 10 kilometers per hour at the fastest, and even 30 kilometers per hour if it enters the deflagration stage
Now, they have two full barrels of oil blessings, and the fire can directly skip the initial and development stages and enter the violent stage.
After the enemy enters, they will not have time to react at all, and they will be caught in the fire!
And once they are caught up in the fire, the ground offensive is completely nullified, and everyone is forced back into the river.
This was the plan of the regimental commander - he may not have intended to achieve anything with fire, but he could build an impassable wall on the ground in this way.
No one questioned it any further, and the big bird and the short foot led the people to resist the oil drum and walked north, and after just a few minutes, Chen Shen saw from a distance that thick smoke had risen from the depths of the woods.
"Poplar, report the enemy's location!"
Chen Shen said in a low voice.
"The enemy has entered the rapids zone and is approaching our ambush position."
"It's about 600 meters from the ambush position, which is not accurate."
Enough is enough.
This distance of 600 meters, it will take them a lot of time.
The fire was enough to stop them on the riverbank.
Chen Shen breathed a long sigh of relief and gave the last order before the war:
"The assault boat docked, and smoke grenades were thrown forward, obscuring the river and directly observing the line of sight!"
"Everyone is ready to fight and ready to meet the enemy!"
At the same time, the other side.
Nuo Kang's confidant, the most powerful assistant, and the commander of the armed forces, Sang Kang, was standing on the deck of the armed freighter, observing the movement ahead with a telescope.
His face was calm, but his heart was already furious.
Miao Ang is his subordinate, a subordinate he brought out single-handedly, and he is like a brother.
The two of them specialized in dirty work from the very beginning, and when it was the hardest, they only had a gun and a few bullets in their hands, and they only grabbed a bite of food after killing several poor ghosts.
ββ
However, at this time when the spring breeze was proud, at this promising point in time, Miao Ang died like that.
Died inexplicably, died silently.
And the person who killed him is still at large.
Therefore, Sang Kang must come over in person, and he must leave the murderer behind.
Not just for that ship, and not just for cooperation with the 505 Brigade.
He wants revenge.
Sang Kang let out a sigh of relief and put down the telescope in his hand.
At this moment, four armed cargo ships have rounded the bend in the river, and the two speedboats have arrived near the helicopter crash site.
The headphones reported that the river in the distance was filled with smoke that was apparently artificially released.
The enemy is there.
"Everyone, prepare!"
"Those things are up ahead!"
"They only have one boat, don't be afraid, rush on!"
Sang Kang gritted his teeth and turned to the cabin, ready to enter the safe house.
No matter how angry he is, he will not be irrational enough to take the lead.
After all, one's own life is very valuable.
ββ
However, the moment he turned around, a straight cloud of smoke suddenly appeared out of the corner of his eye.
βRPGοΌοΌοΌβ
A hoarse roar came from the headphones, and then the adjutant threw him down.
Shots rang out instantly.
"Fight back! Counterattack! β
"Machine gun fire!"
"Volley!"
"No recoilless cannon!"
"What about mortars? What about mortars!? β
"Fast forward! Break through the smoke! Find them! β
Sang Kang rushed into the cabin, and through the glass of the cabin, he saw a scene that made his heart palpitate.
Two speedboats were shattered.
was shattered by the bullets fired from the smoke, and the people on it were directly broken into several sections.
"What about the ground forces?! The ground forces are firing! β
Sang Kang shouted.
However, the reply from the headphones made his heart half cold.
"We. . We have arrived at the intended location. β
"But I can't get by!"
"It's on fire!"
"What a fire!!"
