Chapter 1566 artillery bombardment
A very fast "meteor" fell in the sky, and a hundred meters of smoke rose up on the earth. The cheers of flames and the collision of steel officially began.
The propeller fighter of the Legion Air Force once again attacked forward against the enemy's anti-aircraft fire. Dad Julio on the turret surged with blood. He grabbed the intercom and shouted loudly on his command tank: "Young guys, come with me and fuck those bitches on the opposite side to death."
The engine rumbling black smoke, and Lao Wujiu, who was more than 30 tons, pushed open the temporary shelter and rushed out. In a small town called Teko south of Merida, more than 100 tanks hiding here were divided into three impact arrows and drove at full speed into the battlefield.
The tracks rolled, the sand and soil were raised all over the sky; the iron armor sped, driving endless murderous aura.
By age, Dad Julio should have retired long ago. But this old man in his fifties not only did not retire, but refused to be promoted and still served as the commander of a tank company on the front line. With him on the battlefield, the entire armored battalion felt that he had a backbone.
As the best tank commander in the legion, Dad Julio is a legend. From the beginning of fighting against the legion to fighting for the legion later, as long as there are tank troops to fight, the old captain is basically indispensable.
Armored shock and formation are quite sparse. Due to the long range of artillery, the distance between each tank is hundreds or even hundreds of meters. The tanks that charge densely are all posed for the sake of good looks.
The company of Dad Julio has a total of fourteen tanks, with three platoons under its jurisdiction, plus two command tanks of the company commander and deputy company commander. The entire company pulled out nearly one kilometer to attack and attack forward, with the target of an enemy tank platoon about five kilometers away from them.
That’s right, just fight less!
The bait released lures the enemy out, and the next thing is how to eat it.
But the opponent is very strong. The m60a3's fire control system can discover its own target from a distance. This is the first to discover, the first to fire, and the first to destroy. Today's battle is destined to be extremely tragic.
Dad Julio didn't like to hold himself in the narrow tank. He stood on the turret to observe the surroundings. At this moment, several "super toucans" flew over the sky, and then followed by the broken "Yun-5" with his wings.
The fast-speed "Super Toucan" is the main fighter of the Legion Air Force. Unfortunately, there are not many such aircraft and can only be used to attack the enemy's air defense firepower. Due to the lack of ground attack aircraft, the "Yun-5" with heavy load can only be pulled out and hung onto the rocket nest, specifically used to plow the land.
Seeing more than a dozen slow Yun-5s flying overhead, Dad Julio said on the radio: "Don't be afraid, boys, our 'nanny' is here to help."
The "Yun-5" with two wings flew slowly, and was born into a transport plane, so it looked even more cute and cute when hung on the Rockets Nest. In addition, it often plays a guest appearance in the old business to transport supplies to the armored troops, and is nicknamed the "nanny".
Flying slowly has the advantage of flying slowly. The "Yun-5" with the Nineteen-Drive Rockets' Nest can turn the area of a football field into a sea of fire in one breath, and it is also particularly accurate. If the opponent's air defense firepower is scarce, the ground target can be tortured to death by it.
After running about half of the five kilometers, a dazzling ballistic trajectory of a cannonball suddenly appeared on the opposite side. A Lao Wujiu next to Dad Julio was directly driven and the turret flew into the sky.
"Damn it, are the Air Force blind?" Dad Julio was frightened and his neck shrank, followed him to grab the telescope and look in the direction of the ballistic for a few seconds, then cursed on the radio: "One row, one row, one row, at nine o'clock in front of you, there is a grass 1,500 meters away."
Four tanks in front quickly stopped one by one, and several chariot leaders also drilled out of the turret. Lao Wujiu's fire control and sighting were indeed a bit bad, and the distance and reaction speed were indeed not as good as m60a3.
"Put the grenades on me and blind the enemy first." Julio's father was very smart. He knew that his old tank not only had poor fire control, but also bad artillery and shells. Whether it could penetrate the enemy's front is a problem. It would be better to use the grenades to destroy the enemy's exposed sight system first.
A few banging grenades flew out, and a grass hidden in an m60a3 immediately exploded with smoke and dust. An explosion occurred on the front of the tank, which not only made the crew inside it shocked, but also the gunman could not see the scene outside.
The m60a3 who was shot tried to exit the grass. As soon as it moved, Dad Julio saw that the grass seemed to be hiding from other tanks, "It's really damn, there is a platoon of the enemy's tanks squatting there."
"The first row shoots at the spot, the second row and the third row accelerate forward, and go around the back of the enemy." Dad Julio saw that the enemy's tank was even wearing anti-explosion armor on the front of the enemy's tank. This protective condition is much stronger than that of the old 59 who ran naked.
Realizing that his side's losses might be huge, Dad Julio quickly adjusted the channel to contact the Air Force's air and ground fire assistant. He grabbed the radio and looked left and right, and muttered anxiously: "Damn it, where am I? The 'nanny' who just flew over, hurry up and plow the field!"
"Put the white phosphorus bombs at the grass where the enemy is hiding, lit that place, let it burn, and burn it to indicate the target." As Dad Julio spoke, his subordinates suffered a great loss in the shooting, and two tanks were knocked off in succession.
The explosion of flames soared into the air, and the steel tanks became the tomb of steel. None of the members in the tank could escape.
The second and third rows that detoured the road ran a little less than a kilometer and sent a worse news, "Dad, we are in trouble. There is not a tank platoon on the opposite side. There is a slope behind the grass, and there is at least one enemy squatting behind the slope."
"Didn't it be agreed that there is only one enemy on the other side of us?" Julio's father himself became popular. He suffered heavy losses after the battle and encountered a strong enemy.
I don’t know where the air support is flying around, and the number of “nannies” is not large. I may be taking care of other brothers, or I may be able to fly away after all the Rocket’s nests.
You have to rely on yourself at this time!
"Storm up, get closer, don't carry the enemy tank head-on." Dad Julio couldn't call for air support for a while, so he could only try to shout on the radio whether there were any other tank companies around him. As a result, he called out a self-propelled artillery company of the battalion.
The simple modified self-propelled cannons of tracked armored vehicles raised their muzzles and began to shoot at close range. The short-barrel 155 caliber howitzer bombed four shells to fly out.
The grass where the enemy was dodging in front was ignited by white phosphorus bombs, becoming the best reference object. The cannon hiding behind Lao Wujiu fired six consecutive rapid shots, immediately knocking the place into a sea of fire.
The 155-caliber grenade exploded, enough to overturn a dozen tons of tanks. Within the explosion coverage, unprotected targets will be killed without any suspense.
After waiting for the shells to plow the ground, Dad Julio led his team to the enemy's position again. He saw that the four m60a3s that were originally hiding behind the grass were all finished. One was covered with grenades; one was punched on the side and the crew was wiped out; two were overturned by heavy artillery, and the crew was killed halfway through when they escaped.
Without tank cover, the MoB behind the grass could not stop the attacks, and Lao Wujiu had to surrender in all his entire company.
