Chapter 981 Air Assault Force
The best time for the lethality of artillery is in the first round of shelling, so whether a artillery is excellent or not, the rapid fire performance indicators are very important. Eight??One?Chinese?Web??????
Within a minute, it is possible to pour as many shells as possible onto the enemy's position in order to inflict the most effective damage on the enemy.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, when the first shell arrives, the enemy will start to hide in the bunker.
It's the same in Modern Warfare.
After setting the target of the shelling, the two self-propelled artillery companies all fired rapidly in a short period of time.
Shells were quickly poured into various targets in the city, especially the city hall of Raqqa, which was already very dilapidated. After being hit by several 175mm heavy shells suddenly, the remaining four-story main body The building structure collapsed directly.
There were also some Kurdish soldiers inside, all buried under the ruins, and many more were directly killed by shells.
At the same time, other important strongholds of the Kurdish armed forces in Raqqa were also wiped out, and the police station, which had been repaired with great difficulty, also completely collapsed into ruins.
Several training camps acquired from IsIs were also heavily covered by artillery fire.
The lethality of twenty-four heavy artillery pieces is extremely terrifying when dealing with such point targets.
Not to mention the more advanced artillery and greatly improved accuracy, the gunpowder that has exploded with greater power has all become the swan song of many Kurdish armed soldiers.
The only ones who could be spared were the armed soldiers who were scattered in every corner of the city and at the entrance of the streets early, and could avoid being the target of shelling.
The whole shelling lasted for a long time, except for the initial rapid fire, the rest were all slow shelling, purely for the purpose of making up the knife.
However, just as the Kurdish armed forces were undergoing shelling, the air assault battalion also arrived in time, and the ground troops had been divided into four columns at this time, heading towards the city of Raqqa.
The air assault battalion formed multiple attack formations, and under the leadership of the Hind armed helicopter, it rushed into the air towards the sky above Raqqa.
The Air Assault Battalion is a full organic helicopter battalion. It has two armed helicopter companies and three transport helicopter companies, which are dedicated to transporting soldiers from the 6th battle of the air assault battalion into the city. Seize the commanding heights of the city and provide cover for the ground attacking troops.
And the armed helicopter is naturally to provide cover for the transport helicopter, protect the transport helicopter, and be able to smoothly release the soldiers in the aircraft to the battlefield.
When the air commando entered the city of Raqqa. Kurdish armed soldiers in the city also began to fight back.
The Kurdish armed forces, which do not have any effective air defense means, tried to use the heavy machine guns and rocket launchers on the vehicle to attack the helicopters in the sky.
However, with Hind attack helicopters in the front, many Kurdish soldiers in the direction of the attack hardly had any good chances to make a move.
Because the helicopters are all moving forward with high maneuverability, they don't hover in a certain place at all. To attack such a helicopter in the city, you need a good vision range.
Want to hide in an alley between houses or in a corner. Attack the helicopters in the sky, and when you see it, the helicopters have already flown over.
The higher the city buildings, the safer it is for helicopters.
And those armed personnel who wanted to attack the helicopter often had not waited for them to make a move, and the people on the helicopter had already spotted them.
Furthermore, many commanding heights in the city have long been occupied by two special warfare units, the special forces of the two units. Also began assisting the Air Assault Battalion to root out threats on the ground.
A large number of transport helicopters entered the city, and soon hovered over the commanding heights of the city, a large number of red police soldiers. Quickly descend to the landing point, control the commanding heights of the house, and the direction of advance under the attack line of the ground troops.
As a large number of commandos landed in the city, Kurdish armed soldiers no longer cared about the helicopters in the sky, and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the commandos.
An air assault battalion can quickly transport two infantry companies to the battlefield. At this moment, when the two assault companies had successfully landed in the city, the main force of the two battalions on the ground also entered the city.
However, what surprised many soldiers was that before they saw the enemy in the city, they saw many reporters who were not afraid of death, and they were actually driving a car to follow and shoot.
Many of the reporters were foreign reporters, and there were even two documentary filming teams who followed suit.
However, the Red Police Corps did not stop such filming, because the live broadcast reporter team of Future Media Company also followed the troops to film.
And it still adopts 360-degree optical capture shooting without dead angles. The shooting pictures will soon become the material of the future media company's live broadcast.
For this war, the Future Technology Group is also well prepared for publicity. After all, to show a strong side, it needs to be seen by the whole world.
Starting from the bombardment, the filming work also began. Even the helicopters were all equipped with shooting pods, trying to capture all the pictures of the entire battlefield.
As for the Kurdish soldiers, they didn't know that they would be on TV soon, but they knew that was the case, because usually on TV, at most, they were dead.
In fact, all the Kurdish soldiers, who had no time or energy to care about such things, were starting to get tough as a large number of troops began to enter the city.
It is an attempt to use the city's terrain to fight a city offensive and defensive battle, but it also has a certain strength as a support.
Whether it is the gap in equipment or the gap in individual combat literacy, it has reached an irreparable point, not to mention that in the city, there is no help from people and peace, and the geographical advantage is completely unqualified.
It is almost impossible to use urban street fighting to stop the attack of the Red Police Corps.
When the city's east and north-south main roads were all breached by rows of tanks, the space for Kurdish soldiers in the city was completely compressed.
The main battle tanks lined up, like a sharp sword, pierced towards the center of the city.
The armored vehicles at the rear used their high maneuverability to seize all intersections along the way and control the city step by step.
The most important thing is that this war came too suddenly. The Kurdish armed forces had no time to plant bombs or mines in the city, and they couldn't stop the advance of the tanks. Otherwise, they could still bring some trouble to the Red Police Corps.
Of course, even if there is trouble, it is a small trouble. (To be continued.) xh:.218.2o4.13
