"Battery Commander!" I soon realized that the battlefield situation was actually much more serious than we thought.
Not long after, Zhao Jingping raised his head and reported to me: "The second company commander reported... the shells used by the Vietnamese Japanese were shells with delayed fuses!"
"What? Delayed Fuze?" Hearing the words, the cadres in the camp department couldn't help but gasp.
The people in this battalion are all veterans... Of course they know what the difference between these delayed fuze shells and ordinary shells... Ordinary shells explode as soon as they land. Of course, the result is to only blow up the surface...
It looks very powerful outside, but in fact it is not very destructive to underground fortifications. There is not much energy absorbed by the land!
But the delayed fuze shells are different... The so-called delayed fuze means that they will lag behind for a period of time before they explode. If it is in the mortar shells we commonly use... they are generally used for jungle combat.
There are many branches and leaves in the jungle... In the process of the mortar shell moving to the target... Instant fuze is likely to cause the shell to be detonated by branches and leaves. Delayed fuze will not have this problem, it can make
The shell moved smoothly near the target and then exploded at a preset time.
But... the Vietnamese army's 160MM shells used delayed fuses... The purpose is obviously not this. You must know that the shells of this kind of mortar all have dozens of kilograms... and the speed of falling from high altitude will undoubtedly
It is allowed to penetrate deep into the soil layer, and after the soil layer... the shell will detonate under the action of a delayed fuse.
So you can imagine... its destructive power to fortifications is beyond the reach of ordinary shells!
After thinking about it, King Chuang couldn't help but gritted his teeth and cursed: "This damn Soviet devil!"
I couldn't help but smile bitterly... I understand why King Chuang scolded me like this. You must know that the Yue Japanese had no industrial foundation at this time... He was just a poor country that had fought for decades, so it was naturally impossible to produce 160MM in large quantities.
Caliber mortars cannot produce such shells equipped with delayed fuses... so don't think about it. These are the weapons and equipment of the Soviet devils to support the Vietnamese army.
Suddenly, I understood what the Vietnamese army has been doing in the past five days... They are using this time to mobilize enough 160MM mortars, or they can also say they are storing shells for this mortar.
...
"Battery Commander!" At this time, a scar roar came from the walkie-talkie: "The delayed fuze shells used by the Vietnamese army are extremely destructive to our military fortifications... Many shells directly penetrate the soil layer and enter the tunnel and then explode...
Various cement components and steel plate fortifications were penetrated and opened... The trenches were also blown up in sections! We no longer had fortifications to rely on..."
"How many casualties were there?" I asked.
"No counting!" said Scar, paused and replied: "But the casualties were not very large. We ran out of the fortifications in advance and distributed the anti-cannons outside..."
I couldn't help but feel a little relieved... For the agent company, as long as there are not many casualties, because I believe that they can adapt quickly and respond correctly in any environment!
"Battery Commander!" Zhao Jingping immediately reported: "Pu Liude and Jae Kashan also reported being bombed by Vietnamese artillery fire!"
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but frown... It seems that the Vietnamese Japanese have made sufficient preparations for this battle!
"Let's go up and take a look!" At this time, I could no longer hold back. I waved to several correspondents and staff members and went straight out of the door.
What I meant... Of course, I mean helicopters. In fact, I was a little used to using helicopters at this time... Until now, I have found that helicopters have many benefits, which is convenient for observing the battlefield and commanding... Although this is the first five
The defense is not very good. But as long as we don’t get close to the battlefield, we can observe it with a telescope... In today’s Vietnamese army lacks air defense weapons, this helicopter is still quite safe. In other words... this is actually a
Air Command.
As for why the Japanese devils lack air defense firepower... There is no need to say more. China and Vietnam have not yet conducted large-scale air combat, and it can even be said that... there is basically no air combat. Occasionally, there is a place where aircraft are used.
It's just a few helicopters or reconnaissance planes flying in the air.
Since that's the case... then the air defense weapons are obviously redundant...
Therefore, the Vietnamese army can use air defense, namely some small-caliber anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, and these things... To put it bluntly, they were originally used to fight the opponent's infantry...
In other words... these infantry basically have not undergone air defense training. This is different from hitting an infantry... Infantry runs on the ground, while the aircraft fly in the sky. Not only is it fast, but it often makes some
Avoid actions. So those anti-aircraft machine guns that were originally used to attack infantry... are no longer a big threat to us helicopters.
The personnel arrived soon, and the helicopter quickly rose to the sky with the sound of spiral slurry breaking through the air.
At first glance, I saw the Faka Mountains that were bombed into a ball by shells... Because it was still afternoon, the sun was slowly setting from the west, so although there was smoke everywhere on the battlefield, I could still get through the telescope.
I clearly saw each radial earth flower that exploded on Mount Faka. I really wanted to see the situation of the agent company inside through the smoke and dust, but unfortunately... at this time, Mount Faka
Already surrounded by smoke and dust.
According to the memories of the soldiers who later withdrew from Mount Faka... they all thought it was dark at this moment, and we said that the sun had not set yet... They did not believe anything.
In fact, neither of us is wrong... This is just because the smoke and dust in Mount Faka is so dense that even the sun cannot penetrate.
Let’s look at the two wings of Faka Mountain called Kashan and Urakuto… The situation is similar to that of Faka Mountain…
This can be said to be the sorrow of our artillery. Although our artillery is several times stronger than the Vietnamese army, under the attack of the Vietnamese army's swimming artillery... what our artillery seems to be able to do can only watch the battle behind us!
But this is no wonder the artillery... they had no choice. Because Commander Li was right... At this moment, only mortars were bombing our army, while the Vietnamese army's long-range artillery fire was not a single shot.
Move, it's obvious... they are waiting for our artillery to expose our target!
This helplessness... is caused by insufficient technology. It can only be solved after our army has equipped the gun-aiming radar!
Seeing this, I only said one sentence: "Why didn't the Vietnamese army attack yet?"
Zhao Jingping did not answer, obviously he couldn't figure out this question either...
Looking at the current situation on the battlefield... Our army's position at three points and one line... That is, Uratsuki, Faka Mountain, called Kashan... Among them, Uratsuki and Kashan, called Kashan, one left and one right cover are located at Faka
The three positions of the mountain form a line of defense... This is also the reason why we have to get this Faka Mountain.
But now these three positions... are all blown up in a mess by the Vietnamese artillery... It should be the time for the Vietnamese infantry to charge!
This question roamed a few times in my mind... When I saw the sunset that was about to set, I immediately understood what the Vietnamese army was waiting for!
"Contact artillery immediately!" I turned to Zhao Jingping and ordered: "The Vietnamese army will very likely attack Faka Mountain from the right wing of Faka and the right wing of Kashan! Let the artillery troops be prepared and let the three at the same time
The soldiers from all positions are ready to take the enemy!"
"Yes!" Zhao Jingping responded and immediately conveyed the order.
After pausing, I continued: "It is very likely that time will be fifteen minutes later!"
After conveying the order... Zhao Jingping asked with confusion: "Battery Commander, how do you know that the Vietnamese army will attack from these two directions, and even know the time of the Vietnamese army's attack..."
"Look!" I pointed to the sunset outside the helicopter window, which was about to go down, and said, "The Vietnamese army is waiting for the sun to set... The Vietnamese Japanese are very familiar with the terrain in this area and know that there will be a afterglow on me before the sun sets.
On the military defense line. In this way... our army is likely to not see the whereabouts of the Vietnamese army under the interference of smoke and sunlight, and even if we know that the Vietnamese army is attacking, it is difficult to accurately shoot... and the Vietnamese army can use it
The darkness of the afterglow launched a raid on Mount Faka…”
"Oh!" Zhao Jingping couldn't help but realize: "Faka Mountain and the right wing called Kashan... are the darkness of the afterglow, and the sun will go down the mountain in about fifteen minutes, so... we know the Vietnamese attack
Route and time!”
"That's right!" I nodded.
"Battery Commander, you are really amazing!" Zhao Jingping couldn't help but sigh. He didn't say much, and turned around and immediately made further preparations with other staff members.
I just smiled and thought to myself... If there was no helicopter, if I was not observing the entire battlefield on the helicopter now, if I was on the mountain of Faka on my body... I might be able to really let the Japanese devils do it.
The trick succeeded.
From this point of view... the commander of the Vietnamese Japanese really has a good idea. He knows how to use the natural environment on the Faka Mountain and the cooperation and suppression of weapons and equipment... For example, now, the Vietnamese army's long-range artillery has not been fired at all...
...It made our army not know the depth of the Vietnamese artillery, so we did not dare to act rashly, and in fact we reached the state of "a war without fighting"...
However, the commander of the Vietnamese army still lacks some luck... Now we have known his offensive route and even the attack time in advance, I am afraid that the result of this battle will not be as he wishes!
Only then did I feel that what the ancients said was right, that is, "the right time, place, and people" are indispensable... Otherwise, the result will not only not achieve the expected effect, but will die instead of dying.
