At this time, the army of Sasha was mighty. First, there were several modified pickup trucks. The most powerful firepower was nothing more than general-purpose machine guns. Then, there were more than 1000 meters of military trucks. In the middle and back of the team, there were several bulletproof off-road vehicles, and Sasha sat in one of them.
At this time, Sasha was full of ambition. The army stopped on the road less than one kilometer away from the mountain pass. Then, all the soldiers got out of the car and lined up. Sasha came out of the car and called more than a dozen officers, and immediately began to assign combat tasks.
Sasha asked the soldiers of the two companies to quickly build a firepower fort at the forefront of the team. Several trucks were full of woven bags filled with soil. The soldiers immediately began to move these woven bags from the trucks. Then, on both sides of the road, they built tall and thick forts. Each fort was round with a diameter of about three meters, and the woven bags were two layers inside and outside, with a thickness of more than half a meter, The bullets were impenetrable, and several machine guns were set up.
Kunyang watched from a distance that Sasha started to build fortifications first. He couldn't help sighing and said: "this Sasha is not an ordinary person. Although he has the purpose of attacking, he has to build a good defensive line first. He can attack and defend when he enters and retreats. He really has a set of skills!"
Qin Yichen asked curiously, "what's the use of this kind of fortification? We use machine guns as firepower support, but the range of machine guns is limited. There is a distance of nearly one kilometer from the mountain pass, so it doesn't work at all. "
"No Kun Yang said solemnly: "without heavy firepower on both sides, the effect of this fortification is very obvious. Don't underestimate these two fortresses. They only need 20 men and enough ammunition to support them. It's hard for three or five hundred people to take them down. Once Sasha is defeated, they only need to leave a company of soldiers, You can hold thousands of us here. "
Qin Yichen said coldly, "don't we have helicopters? It's easy to get rid of these two fortresses. "
"It's not that easy." Kunyang pointed to a group of soldiers in the distance and said, "look!"
Qin Yichen fixed his eyes and found that there was a special army under Sasha's hands. There were about sixty or seventy people in this army, and each one was carrying a long launcher.
"This is..."
Kunyang explained: "in the special environment of the golden triangle, few people directly put helicopters into war. The price of RPG is low, and it can be used for several thousand dollars. It is very effective to deal with light armored vehicles and helicopters. In addition, there are simple shoulder mounted air-to-air missiles, which are all thousands of dollars. Several soldiers hide in the mountains, It's easy to kill an armed helicopter with millions or even tens of millions of dollars. On the contrary, no matter how strong the armed helicopter is, it's difficult to effectively attack the scattered air defense forces on the ground in the sky. Therefore, we must not use the helicopter as a last resort. "
"We also have rockets." Qin Yichen said: "this road is so narrow, more than ten thousand troops of the other side are gathered here, and rockets attack intensively. I'm afraid they can't bear it at all! You immediately give Sally your life, and hit him with a rocket
Kunyang quickly turned on the radio and said, "Suri, deputy commander Qin has orders. He immediately attacks the army of Sasha with rockets. Take him by surprise first!"
"I understand!" Sari can reply, and immediately, the Rockets hoisted to the top of the mountain by helicopter begin to enter the launching preparation state. At this time, sari is making his own pre War deployment. He orders the soldiers to prepare for the charge, and orders the mortar artillery to immediately enter the valley on one side of the road to prepare for the battle.
This curved mountain road is not long enough to be exposed to the view of the pass. If Sari arranges the mortar artillery in the valley beyond the view, Qin Yichen's soldiers can hardly threaten the mortar artillery on the top of the mountain. The biggest advantage of the mortar is the curved firing. Hiding in the valley, it can still hit the shells to the top of the mountain in a curved path.
Although the mortar troops in Sasha are not strong, there are at least five or six types of 89 type 60mm mortars used by Huaxia during the Sino Vietnam War. The range of these mortars is about 3km, and their firepower can completely cover the highlands on both sides of the pass.
The mortar artillery has been at the end of the team, and has not yet entered the vision of Qin Yichen and Kun Yang. As soon as Sasha ordered, the last mortar artillery of the team immediately began to carry the scattered mortar into the valley, looking for the most favorable terrain. Kun Yang and others did not see this scene, but they did not hide Qin Yichen's eyes.
More than 10000 people in the whole army of Sasha are under the close supervision of Qin Yichen at the moment. Not only is Sasha locked by Qin Yichen, but also the movements of all the soldiers under Sasha can't hide from Qin Yichen. When Qin Yichen sensed that dozens of people were carrying light mortars into the valley, he realized the intention of Sasha.
At the same time, on both sides of the highland, the Rockets were ready. Before Sasha could react, the Rockets vented from the highland, and the dense rockets towed the long fire light and exploded in the front of the army of Sasha.
The speed of rocket fire is fast, and it is densely covered. After a round of shooting, the army led by the Sasha army is in a mess. At least one or two hundred people have been killed and injured. In addition, one newly built firepower fort has been destroyed, and several pickup trucks have been damaged or even scrapped.
Knowing that he would have to pay certain casualties if he wanted to rush to the other side, Sasha immediately ordered the front-end army to hide and defend against the attack of rockets. At the same time, he ordered the mortars to immediately enter the firing state and bombard the mountain pass highlands.
Qin Yichen immediately said to Kunyang, "inform sari and ask him to tell the soldiers on the high ground to do a good job in anti artillery work. I think Sari will use mortars soon."
Kunyang nodded and said: "Sasha has some light mortars, but we always regard the highlands on both sides of the pass as the top priority, and the fortifications there are also very strong. Sasha's artillery can only play a certain role in suppressing, but it is of little practical use."
Qin Yichen said: "Sasha will definitely use the way of artillery suppression to win time for his infantry to charge. Let's calm down and wait for his infantry to start charging and hit him by surprise from the side and rear!"
As soon as Qin Yichen's voice fell, the unique sound of mortar came from the valley. The light mortar shells were shot into the air, and then fell to the highlands on both sides of the mountain pass. In an instant, they exploded on the top of the mountain.
Mortar shells fire slowly and have little power. With Qin Yichen's current cultivation, he can completely use aura to interfere with the trajectory of shells and make them deviate from the intended target. However, thinking that Sasha will definitely regard the artillery attack as the prelude to the army's charge, he did not interfere with Sasha's first round of artillery attack.
About a dozen shells burst out on the top of the mountain. The sound of shells breaking through the air and exploding through the valley. As soon as the shelling started, Sasha issued a charge order. More than 5000 soldiers of the first combat echelon began to charge the mountain pass under the cover of light armored vehicles modified by pickup trucks.
Sari then reported by wire transfer: "the other side's shelling did not cause too much impact on us, only two soldiers died, five soldiers were slightly injured."
Qin Yichen satisfied with a smile, said: "the enemy's army charged, rockets continue to greet me!"
The purpose of the rapid charge of more than 5000 soldiers in Sasha is to quickly attract defensive firepower from the top of the mountain and buy time for Ruan Hu, who is hidden in the side. Therefore, at the beginning of the charge, their speed was extremely fast, and the launch of several rockets did not really block these soldiers.
In addition, Sasha's mortars are constantly exerting pressure on the top of the mountain, which greatly facilitates the soldiers charging. The soldiers soon pushed forward four or five hundred meters. At the moment, they are only about 500 meters away from the mountain pass. The general machine gun on the pickup truck began to suppress the fire on the top of the mountain, 500 meters away, It has entered the effective shooting distance between machine guns. For a moment, the gunfire is loud.
Qin Yichen saw thousands of troops getting closer and closer. With a sneer in his heart, he said to Kunyang around him: "be ready. Once the enemy comes under our noses, he will beat me hard!"
It is impossible to limit the charge of more than 5000 people only by the firepower on the top of the mountain. The final fight should be when the enemy really occupied the highlands. When the distance between the two sides was less than 100 meters, it was the beginning of the battle of fortification and defense. Therefore, Qin Yichen did not expect to stop the army of Sasha several hundred meters away from the mountain pass, It's better for us to let them in appropriately.
If the enemy's infantry is not close to their own positions, then the enemy's mortars can launch artillery without fear. But once the two sides are close to each other, mortar and other long-range firepower support will basically come to an end, and the rest will rely on the guns in the hands of the soldiers. At that time, their own soldiers will be able to defend the pass by taking advantage of the high ground.
The war between the two sides is a complete copy of the typical local battles in World War II and the Vietnam War. First, the artillery bombarded the infantry. In addition, there was no better way. What Sasha wanted was to use the reckless charge of the vanguard troops to gain advantages and time for Ruan Hu.
However, he didn't know that he had already met the king of hell with Ruan Hu!
