Chapter 1131 Different
Gao Yang picked a good shooting position. His right arm had healed. This was the first time he was fighting in the way he was best after spending more than a month recovering from the injury in an Aleppo prison.
After opening the iron box and taking out the boxes of bullets, Gao Yang waved to several prison soldiers and said loudly: "Come here and help me change the bullets in the magazine."
The long-distance bullets used by Gao Yang were very expensive, and the paper boxes they used were packed in packs of fifty rounds, and there was a flexible filler in the middle to prevent the bullets from colliding with each other and wearing out.
Gao Yang's magazine is filled with ordinary bullets. Ordinary bullets are not useless when shooting at targets above 800 meters, but they are more laborious. That is, Gao Yang needs longer adjustment time to shoot, so he uses long-range bullets. His adjustment time can be shortened significantly.
Eject the bullets from the magazine one by one, and then replace them with long-range bullets. Gao Yang has ten magazines. It will be faster if a few more people help load the bullets.
Sedef had already completed the task of dispatching troops. He also walked to Gao Yang, took a magazine, and started to help Gao Yang load bullets.
"Don't you have to go to the front line to take command?"
After hearing Gao Yang's question, Sedef said in a deep voice: "No, everyone knows what to do."
After all the magazines were reloaded, Gao Yang installed one magazine on the gun, then loaded the remaining magazines on his body, pulled the bolt, lay down on the shooting position, took aim, and tried After trying it, he said in a deep voice: "It's not bad here. I'm here."
After speaking, Gao Yang stood up again, picked up his ammunition box and put it at the back, then said in a deep voice on the intercom: "Big Bird, is the enemy going to start attacking?"
"Not yet. But soon. They're up and moving."
Sedev loudly shouted from behind Gao Yang: "I don't know if they will fire first this time. They will attack after making preparations for artillery fire."
As soon as Sedev finished speaking, there was a sound of gunfire, and a column of smoke was set off within the prison wall.
"Oh, it seems they are really going to prepare for artillery fire first."
It started with the landing of a mortar shell,
The rebel offensive began in earnest.
Most of the prison defenders are stationed inside the building. Mortars and rocket launchers are not a big threat to the defenders inside the building. However, the threat to the defenders in the sentry on the wall is relatively great.
Gao Yang immediately said on the intercom: "Little fly, don't stay on the wall. The enemy's artillery fire will be very intensive. Pull back first. Worker Bee, you also need to hide for a while and leave the gun position."
Frye still led the anti-tank team, and his position was more dangerous. If Tommy wanted to use mortars, he would definitely have to be in an open area. The threat of artillery fire is also relatively large.
Withdraw people's thoughts, and all that's left is to listen to the sound of cannons.
Explosions occur from time to time inside and outside the prison. There are 82mm mortars, 60mm small mortars, and the explosions of 107mm rocket launchers, but the impact points of the shells are neither dense nor accurate.
After hearing a very special explosion, Gao Yang asked strangely: "What kind of cannon is this? I've never heard it before."
Sedef said loudly: "The cannons that the rebels should have built themselves using gas tanks are quite powerful, but they have no accuracy at all."
The rebels lack body-barrel artillery, which is a good thing, because the body-barrel cannons are more accurate and can target the prison's firepower points. Therefore, fortunately the rebels lack body-barrel artillery.
Sedev looked at his watch and said impatiently: "Why hasn't our artillery support arrived yet? It was so good to bomb the enemies intensively when they gathered. Now that the enemies have dispersed, the artillery support hasn't arrived yet."
Gao Yang turned to look at Sedef and said in surprise: "Do we have artillery support?"
Sedef spread his hands and said, "Yes, the 134th Division will provide us with artillery support."
After the 134th Division failed to attack the rebels, its position shrank back a bit. It is now about six or seven kilometers away from the Aleppo prison. The most heavily equipped artillery in Syria is the D30 howitzer, and the main artillery equipped by the 134th Division is also the D30. Therefore, if there is artillery support, it is the d30 howitzer.
However, the artillery fire of the 134th Division was neither fast nor accurate. There are not many armies in the world who can truly play artillery as the god of war, and the Syrian army is obviously not among this group.
If the Chinese army were here, how could they be so polite as soon as they discovered that the rebels were gathering in the village? They would have come over to wash the ground before the rebels in the village had dispersed, and the artillery regiment of the 134th Division would not be like the artillery regiment of the 134th Division. When the fighting started, the rebels who had gathered in large numbers dispersed, not yet ready for battle.
Explosions continued one after another. Finally, there was a louder sound among the explosions, and streaks of smoke and black smoke began to appear in the village.
The 134th Division finally opened fire. Unfortunately, the shells fired at this time were of little use. The enemy had already dispersed, and the shells that landed were sparse and inaccurate.
A huge plume of smoke and dust exploded less than 20 meters away from the prison wall. The D30 howitzer shells are the most powerful, and the explosion was extraordinary. However, this also frightened Gao Yang even more, because the 134th Division fired the cannon crookedly. I almost landed in jail and bombed them.
"Oh oh oh, Falk! Major, please notify the artillery of the 134th Division quickly and ask them to save some shells. By the way, tell them to be more accurate and don't blow us up into the sky."
Gao Yang shouted. He didn't want to be accidentally injured. The rebel artillery would not have much impact on the buildings in the prison, but the 134th Division's artillery shells were more of a threat than the rebel artillery shells.
At this moment, Jason loudly said: "It's not good, the enemy tanks are coming in three groups, three tanks and five armored vehicles, all coming."
Gao Yang raised his telescope and looked at it, then said in a deep voice: "Have the rebels changed their strategy this time? Little fly, you have to be careful, the enemy tanks are coming in three groups."
This time, if we fight tanks again, we have to brave the enemy's artillery fire to hit the tanks on the wall.
The enemy tanks were approaching rapidly, but the tanks stopped when they were still four or five hundred meters away from the prison. Then the turret of a tank gun began to rotate and fired a shot at a sentry on the wall.
A watchtower on the wall was blown into pieces. Although it did not completely collapse, the people inside would definitely not survive.
"Fake, so accurate!"
Gao Yang was surprised because the enemy's tank fire was much more accurate this time than last time.
Gao Yang was a little worried and said anxiously: "No, we can't fight like this. The enemy has replaced tank gunners. They are much more powerful than last time."
Sedef said helplessly: "Although we are learning about war, the rebels are also learning, and they have a steady stream of new recruits joining. It seems that they have some powerful characters this time."
Gao Yang said in a deep voice on the intercom: "Little flies, you have to be careful. This time the enemy tanks know how to use their advantages, so you must be careful."
Frye said helplessly: "Boss, we can't reach the tank. What should we do?"
Gao Yang said helplessly: "Wait, wait until the tank gets closer and then fight."
Frye said urgently: "Tanks won't get close easily. Boss, can I try to hit them from a distance a few times?"
The rocket launcher can hit tanks, but it is definitely not the best weapon. Although the armor-piercing warhead does not matter the distance of the tank, the longer the distance from the tank, the rocket launcher may not be able to hit the tank. This is the problem.
Rockets can definitely fly to 500 meters away, but the direct range of the RPG-27 is only 200 meters, and the range of the ruler is also 200 meters. Beyond the distance of 200 meters, you can only rely on feeling, Frye said Maybe one of them could be fooled, but the other bazooka operators who were assigned to the anti-tank group would not be able to hit them.
The tank gun turned around and once again aimed at a sentry on the wall and fired. This time it hit again.
The threat of the tank was too great. Gao Yang panicked and said in a deep voice: "Little fly, you can try to see if you can hit the tank, but be careful."
If rockets are used to hit T72, the frontal armor may not be penetrated, so Frye can only hit the sides, but this limits the shooting position too much, and after the shooting position is limited to several places, the danger of launching rockets is also The bigger it gets.
"Boss, I know, let me try it first."
Frye picked up a rocket launcher and hurriedly ran up the wall. As soon as Frye carried the rocket launcher up, Jason, who was staring at the monitor, yelled: "Get down quickly!"
Gao Yang also yelled on the intercom: "Get out of there!"
Gao Yang was looking through the binoculars. When he discovered that as soon as Frye showed up, the turret of another tank began to turn toward him, and further away, the twin 23mm anti-aircraft guns pulled on a pickup truck also began to move toward Frye. Steering.
Frye popped his head and fired a rocket launcher, then threw the rocket launcher away, immediately ran down the stairs on the wall, and finally jumped down when he was still two or three meters above the ground.
First, a row of 23mm artillery shells swept over the position where Frye was just now, and then a T72 fired a shot, blowing up the place where Frye was just now.
Gao Yang couldn't help but wiped away the cold sweat and said again: "Fake, the enemy this time is so powerful."
Sedef also said in a deep voice: "The people who operate heavy weapons in the rebels this time are different, completely different."
Weapons can only be powerful in the hands of those who know how to use them. In the hands of those who don't know how to use them, they are like fire sticks. The difference is too obvious.
Gao Yang looked at some pickup trucks directly to the west of the prison. Some of those pickup trucks were pulling 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine guns, and some were pulling 23mm anti-aircraft cannons. Of course, these anti-aircraft weapons are now used for level shooting to suppress the prison. The defenders' firepower was at a distance of 1,500 meters, and their weapons still retained strong power. However, the prison defenders had almost no weapons to fight back except mortars.
Gao Yang originally wanted to save Grolev's firepower to attack the self-destructing truck, but looking at the situation, if the enemy can complete the fire blockade of the prison with anti-aircraft guns, this battle will be impossible to fight.
Finally, Gao Yang said helplessly: "Big dog, use direct suppressive fire on the enemy. Don't let them get too rampant." (To be continued...)
