Chapter 1110 Indiscriminate Bombing

Bane's headquarters was set up in the sparse woods that can be found everywhere in Angola. After pulling the camouflage net, it is difficult to find it from the ground or the sky. And when he learned that there was an airship coming, Ben raised his binoculars under the camouflage net curiously and puzzled.

"Where is the airship?" Ben searched for a long time, but he couldn't see any airship in the sky at all.

The staff officer who came to report smiled awkwardly and said, "According to the radar altimetry, there are two airships at an altitude of 6,000 meters above our heads. Our anti-aircraft weapons are simply out of reach."

Six kilometers?

Modern fighters rely heavily on logistics, and few people can use them now. But as long as some influential organizations can always get a few ordinary planes, propeller planes are very common in use.

To deal with low-flying propeller aircraft, a few self-propelled anti-aircraft guns equipped with radar are enough to prevent them from coming and going. The reason why Bane is confident that he can deal with air strikes is that he has encountered similar situations many times in the past.

But Bane deliberately provoked his opponent, and then allowed his opponent to use drones to detect him. As a result, the opponent did not play cards according to common sense? ——Using an airship? The airship has a big target and a slow speed, and it is more than a hundred years behind the times!

In a clear sky, even with a telescope, it is difficult to find the airship at an altitude of 6,000 meters. But it is very easy to observe the ground at an altitude of 6,000 meters. After securing themselves against man-portable anti-aircraft missiles and small-caliber anti-aircraft guns, the airship began to reveal its terrifying capabilities.

With a bomb load of seven tons, this ability is second to none among fighter jets. You must know that the old-fashioned H-6 can only carry nine tons of ammunition at most, and if you want to fly farther, you can only carry three tons.

For this bombing, Zhou Qingfeng specially obtained old high-resistance aerial bombs from the Rabbit Air Force. The small one was 250 kilograms, and the big one was a full three tons.

At an altitude of 6,000 meters, fix a point and hold on. The air flow is stable today, there is no wind, and the airship barely moves after stopping at high altitude. The bombing device removed from the old bomber was aimed at the ground. The captain in charge of the bombing was also a novice, and he was not confident in using the bombing device just after learning how to use it.

"Shall we try to have a shot first?"

The captain was surrounded by the pilot and the bombardier. After discussion, everyone decided to shoot the smaller one first. In addition to the two three-ton 'Big Fatty', there are two 'Little Fatty' on the belly hanger of the airship. When the bombardier presses the button after locking the ground target, the solenoid valve releases.

A 250kg high-resistance aerial bomb was dropped immediately, and the safety inside the bomb was automatically released after falling to a certain height. With its weight, the airflow in the air can't affect its accuracy at all, and the gravity of the earth will pull it to where it should go.

Falling from a height of 6,000 meters,

It will still take a while. The high-altitude bomber crew was waiting impatiently, and Bane on the ground became more and more impatient-he had two airships hanging above his head, and an idiot could guess what the other party wanted to do!

"Are you being stupid? Hurry up and notify our planes to kill these two airships." Bane waved his hands, his expression furious. To be honest, he had calculated everything, and he really didn't expect the opponent to use the airship when he came out.

The plane can't come right away, all we can do now is wait. At this time, every second is extremely thrilling, because any slight disturbance will make people feel that a bomb has fallen from the sky.

After several minutes, the bomb did not come down. Ben kept asking his mobile radar vehicle about the track of the airship, and he learned that the airship had already hovered at an altitude of 6,000 meters above his own position.

"Could they be right on top of my head?" Boss Bane broke out in a cold sweat from his conjecture. "Tell me quickly, how long does it take for a bomb at a height of 6,000 meters to reach the ground in free fall?"

The staff officer was a bit silly, and after hesitating for a while, he said: "If the influence of resistance is not considered, the time of free fall is... Sorry, respected leader, I am a little bit unable to calculate. My physics is not very good."

Ben and his staff officer looked at each other, when they suddenly heard a sharp whistling sound from the air. The 6,000-meter free fall endows the aerial bomb with a tremendous speed, and the compressed air at this speed creates violent vibrations, which are extremely sharp to the ears and make people flustered.

Ben heard the howling and immediately fell to the ground. Within a few seconds, there was a sudden earthquake on the ground, followed by a thunderous explosion in the air. He raised his head for a long time, only to find a column of smoke about a kilometer away from him, which was as high as ten floors.

"Fortunately, it's not on top of us." Ben patted the ashes on his body, lamenting that the bomb fell far away from him. However, another aerial bomb that corrected its position also landed and exploded, which was also earth-shattering.

Generally, a 155mm caliber is a heavy artillery, but a 155mm shell only weighs tens of kilograms, and the charge is only more than ten kilograms, which can blast out a killing range of tens of meters. This was already a devastating blow in the eyes of the soldiers.

And the current aerial bombs are in the 250kg class, which is considered small. Once shot down, it will almost die within a hundred meters.

Soon the radio came forward with reports that a black slave camp had been bombed, old-fashioned incendiary air bombs. Half of the people in this battalion died as soon as it was sent down, and the other half were either frightened stupid or frightened crazy!

What to do?

Immediately there was a flood of inquiries on the radio. The smoke column one kilometer away seemed far away from him, but who would have thought who would be unlucky next?

"Don't worry, this kind of fixed-point bombing should all fall within a range. Now we all know the landing point, just avoid it. Don't worry, wait a little longer, our fighter plane will come soon."

Bane showed his majesty as a leader, and ordered his hidden subordinates not to move. His meaning was simple—the airship wouldn't move, and neither would I. Let it fry.

But within two minutes, the mobile radar sent a report that the airship in the sky had moved a certain distance. This suddenly caused panic, and everyone felt that there was a sword of Damocles hanging above their heads. Even Bane was asking ??—where did the enemy airship go?

And at an altitude of 6,000 meters, the crew that had just carried out the bombing were clapping and celebrating. They could clearly see the crowd running around after being bombed on the ground, and following the direction of the crowd fleeing, they also found another nearby enemy assembly point.

"Fly three hundred meters to the east."

"Steady, stop, fix."

"We will vote for a 'big fat man'."

This is a cluster bomb weighing three tons. After the bomb is dropped, the airship suddenly rises to a high altitude due to the reduced load. The safety is unlocked when the projectile falls, and when it reaches a certain height, the spirally rotating female projectile starts to continuously throw submunitions one after another.

This time, the people on the ground could clearly see thousands of bombs suddenly densely packed above their heads. These sub-munitions are small in weight and spread widely, like a large net covering the area of ​​more than ten football fields.

The people on the ground yelled in panic and ran away with their heads in their hands. They drove away immediately with sharp eyesight and quick hands. Those who didn't have a car could only hate their parents for having two legs. It can face carpet-style coverage bombing, as long as the unprotected targets within the explosion range have no resistance at all.

The rain of bombs fell unstoppably, and a layer of explosive thundercloud immediately rose from the ground. There was a burst of intensive explosions, and Ben himself was so shocked that he squatted down. After a while, he raised his head again, only to see that the ground just a few hundred meters away from him was completely changed.

Trees fell and soil was overturned, cars were destroyed and people died, and bomb craters were like hemp, with casualties everywhere.

At this time, another heavy aerial bomb was also falling, which was also a cluster bomb, and it was also raining bullets in the air. Bane was startled immediately, and hurried back into his armored command vehicle and shouted hoarsely: "What are you waiting for? Withdraw ten kilometers one after another!"
