Chapter 903: The Subjective Initiative to Escape
82mm ammunition and 75mm... Oh, there is no 75mm ammunition. The comrades from the anti-tank and anti-aircraft teams, carrying their equipment, quickly followed behind.
At this point, the whole scene was not much different from the annihilation of the Weinan West Line Brigade in the first phase. The artillery bombarded and the infantry charged. The infantry approached and fired rockets, and then continued to charge after the rockets were fired.
Occasionally use flash blast grenades, irritating smoke bombs and the like to repel insects.
Of course, there are differences. After the first phase of summary and intensive training, our soldiers are obviously more proficient in using this set of tactics and are more fully prepared.
Some comrades who were in good physical condition even carried a small-looking folding weapon in their hands in addition to the Type 61 assault rifle and rocket launcher, and their bodies were covered with grenade belts.
Hmm? What's going on? Let's have a go!
This thing was made very quickly at Beijing University of Technology. Thanks to the standard guide rail, the design was completed in one day, and the mold was completed in one day. The drawings were sent to the arsenal in Shuangqing City, Shu Province, and a large number of them were completed in a few days. Some of them were airlifted here. At that time, Shuangqing City still belonged to Shu Province and was not directly under the jurisdiction of the province.
After all, the main body is a gun-mounted grenade launcher, and this thing is just a bracket for the folding buttstock, which is not difficult.
Although Weinan is located on a plateau, there are still many trees and other vegetation covering the area. This thing is very popular among comrades, mainly because it is very convenient to use, even more convenient than the one hanging on the gun.
"Hey, this thing is great! I didn't expect that the comrades in the western section just reported their ideas and we can use it right now."
"It's so convenient. I can shoot at anything I see first, hahaha."
As he was speaking, the comrade fired another shot and killed an enemy.
A three-man anti-tank team carried a launcher set and five missiles, which left them with nothing but a pistol and two binoculars each.
But it doesn’t matter, Red Sword-61 will take action.
"Hey, look, are the comrades in front being suppressed?" A deputy gunner looked ahead through a telescope.
A small infiltrating troop was pinned down by an enemy bunker on a high cliff. The bunker was spewing flames crazily. The terrain was too bad, and the comrades had to advance a distance through a pass before they could get within the range of the 61mm fire. However, several heavy machine guns of the enemy blocked the pass tightly.
At this distance in the pass, let alone 61mm fire, even if 75mm ammunition is used, it will be useless because it exceeds the direct fire range of 75mm ammunition.
Two comrades rushed forward, but as soon as they showed their heads, they were rescued by their comrades with injuries.
The leader of the assault team was about to organize another assault when suddenly there was a "whoosh" sound and something flew over his head, with sparks and lightning all the way.
He turned around and saw several of his comrades lying there about a thousand meters behind him. One of them had his eyes on something that looked like a large telescope.
"Wait a minute, the comrades with anti-tank missiles are here to support us!" He quickly held down the assault soldier who was about to set off.
The anti-tank team behind them had no time to come over to inform them as the distance was quite far. They just set up the missiles, connected the system, aimed and fired as quickly as possible, and fired the missiles within tens of seconds.
From their position, they could actually see the enemy's bunker very clearly.
The comrades leaned forward slightly and watched the Red Sword-61 drawing strange circles and approaching the enemy's bunker.
The distance of more than a thousand meters was only enough for the Red Sword-61 to fly for a few seconds, and a "pop" sound was heard from afar.
Six or seven enemies in the bunker were firing frantically. I saw a small dot with white smoke drawing circles in the distance, getting closer and closer to me.
Zang San also had experience. There were too many strange things in the University of East China. He knew that the newcomer was not a good person. He shouted, dropped the heavy machine gun and ran back. Several people crowded in the narrow door of the bunker, and no one could squeeze out.
Before they could decide the outcome of the battle for the escape door, the Red Sword-61 had already hit a firing hole in the bunker. It didn't get in, but the powerful pressure and high temperature killed these dirty guys on the spot, and the bunker was completely silenced.
Whether it is the Red Sword-61 or the Red Sword-73 from Gao Zhendong's previous life, it always gives people the illusion that this thing is not big in size and its power seems to be average.
In fact, this is a bullet weighing about 10 kilograms, and the amount of explosive in the warhead is not low.
In Gao Zhendong's previous life, the first time the Red Sword-73 was used was on the battlefield to fight against the Cochin Monkeys. Two missiles killed 19 enemies, including 11 battalion commanders, 5 company commanders and 3 platoon leaders. These guys were hiding in a command post built in a cave to hold a combat meeting. They originally thought it was very safe, but they were wiped out by two missiles.
The size and concept of the Red Sword-73 are exactly the same as the Red Sword-61, so you can imagine how powerful it is.
"Well done! Go!" The comrades of the assault team jumped up like tigers and set out on the road of attack again. When passing by the destroyed bunker, a soldier threw a grenade in and ignored the place. Now they are racing against time, so where would they have so much free time to search in?
The anti-tank team behind also packed up their equipment and quickly followed.
By 11 o'clock in the morning, the development of this battle was different from the battle between the two brigades on the western front of Weinan more than ten days ago.
Since the first phase of annihilating the Western Front Brigade, Zang San's ordinary soldiers have become more and more timid. This timidity reached its peak after the arrival of the "reinforcements" yesterday.
I can’t beat him, Dongda is too powerful!
The upper echelons may talk tough, but it is the soldiers who are losing their lives on the front line.
In addition, as soon as the battle started, they did not hear any artillery fire from their side, nor did they receive any systematic command orders. The conflicts between the companies made it impossible for them to coordinate with each other, and they lost their positions very quickly, which made them even more afraid of fighting.
At this time, their subjective initiative was brought into play. I may not be good at fighting, but when it comes to escaping, we are still proactive!
The frightened enemies didn't even come into contact with us. When they heard the sound of gunfire getting closer, they simply dropped their weapons and fled in panic.
There was a super lucky guy who was captured and released in the first stage and then crossed the river. He said that as long as you don't have weapons in your hands and don't resist, the Dongda people will not beat you.
Looking through the Tu-4 thermal imager channel that monitored the battlefield from the air, waves of enemies were like streams flowing out from the mountains and hills in the river valley, converging on the main road for retreating to the south, and fleeing in a swarm towards the south.
"We can't let them escape! They can't run too far. Although the escape route to the south has been cut off in the distance, chasing them over this distance will still be too demanding on the soldiers and may result in unnecessary casualties." At the joint ground and air command center, a commander frowned as he looked at a photo of the thermal imager channel sent back by the Tu-4.
The enemy took nothing with them except warm clothes and food, and they just ran away. Our soldiers are at a battle, fully armed, and each person carries more than 20 kilograms. It will be physically disadvantageous to chase them, so we must not tire our soldiers out.
"But there is no bridge along these dozens of kilometers, and we can't cut off their way." The nearest bridge is nearly a hundred kilometers away and has been cut off by us long ago.
The commander looked at the map and pointed to a place: "Here!"
This is a cliff less than 20 kilometers away from the battlefield. It is a very obvious broken wall. The road is a wall-mounted highway. On the left and right sides are steep mountains on one side and a hundred-meter cliff on the other side. Once the road is cut off, it will be impossible to pass.
The terrain is so unique that it is so obvious even on the rough map made by Figure 4.
"what do you mean?"
"Use laser-guided bombs to blow this place down!"
"But the Tu-16 has already gone back, and it hasn't mounted any large-caliber laser-guided bombs. Will they be able to catch up when they come back?"
"No, as long as there is a certain amount of earth and rocks blocking the road, it will be enough to slow down the enemy's escape. Please use the Gong-5 attack aircraft above the battlefield to bomb with 250kg laser-guided bombs! If one bomb doesn't work, use two. If two bombs don't work, use four. Anyway, bomb until the landslide blocks the road!"
250kg laser-guided bomb: I won’t say anything if you call me a small bomb in front of the dispenser and heavy TV-guided bomb, but when we get outside, please call me a big bomb!
Above the battlefield, there were a total of 6 Attack-5 attack aircraft that rushed from the Snow Mountain Airport. They brought nothing else but one thing - 4 250kg laser-guided bombs.
These 24 heavy bombs were intended to support comrades on the ground in attacking the enemy's large and fortified works. However, these things were obviously a bit oversized and were of little use here.
The comrades on the ground rushed in too fast! Although the enemy had been operating here for a long time, it was not easy for them to get supplies here. They did not build so many large and solid fortifications. The only one was the semi-underground brigade headquarters, which was hit by a 1-ton gliding TV-guided bomb and killed many people.
"Peregrine 01 understands! Target coordinates received."
"Peregrine 02, Peregrine 03, follow me, we have a new mission." An Attack-5 attack aircraft that received the order called on two comrades and flew south along the river valley.
At this time, a large number of enemies were fleeing frantically along the road in the valley. Some were even driving and had run more than ten kilometers. They saw that as long as they crossed a mountain pass ahead and turned a corner, they would be able to get on a wider road and run faster.
A fleeing torrent rolled southward, rushing like wolves and pigs.
Just as they were about to pass through the narrow mountain pass, the enemy in the front seemed to see a few small black dots coming at them quickly. They were four 4kg laser-guided bombs.
This kind of attack, which does not require much precision, is not difficult for the Gong-5. They even discussed it in the air and decided to try four missiles first, and then increase the number if it doesn't work.
With a few loud "booms", rocks from the top of the valley fell down, blocking the road ahead tightly in the enemy's desperate eyes.
