Chapter 1399: Artillery bombardment

As soon as the sky brightened, the leader of the third regiment, Kulik, got out of his command car, and no one moved his joints. He received an order to raid Merida last night, but everything went wrong. More than a thousand people in the group gathered and dragged, and had to leave the main road and walk the trail halfway.
As a result, the trail was bumpy and the propulsion speed was slow. After a long night of tossing, they rushed to the vicinity of Merida, but all of them demanded that they take a two-hour rest before moving. In the dark night, the head of Kulik did not refuse his request, because he was tired himself.
The third regiment, adapted from the gang armed forces, has always been loosely disciplined. They were originally personal soldiers of the Dialgo family. The regiment commander could not strictly demand them, otherwise the soldiers would mutiny.
It was originally said that after a two-hour break, it was only a few hours after lying down. Until the daylight leader grew up from his tent, the cool air was refreshing, and he was shouted to his deputy and asked, "How far are we from Merida?"
"About ten kilometers," said the lieutenant.
"Let our artillery fire at the city, and at the same time let the boys in the regiment get up." Chief Kulik said proudly. He tightened the belt on his trousers, and looked back at the two girls lying in the tent behind him, thinking that when marching and fighting, he was going to fire!
The lieutenant is a retired sergeant, and his task is to assist his regiment to control the troops, anyway, a little military common sense. He asked hesitantly, "Head, will this cause panic in the city? If the city is messy, it will not be good for us."
"We are here to suppress the rebellion, not to have a carnival party." Chief Kulik grinned, and slapped the lieutenant's shoulder vigorously. "The suppression of the rebellion is to open fire, to make those who are lucky in the city completely discouraged. , Tell them to follow suit and never dare to resist again. "
The adjutant was helpless, nodded and retreated. After half an hour, the regiment artillery company equipped with the m119 105mm howitzer opened fire. The government artillery had no specific target at all, but fired at the maximum range.
The rumble of cannons was deafening, but it woke the soldiers who were still sleeping in the third regiment. They climbed out of various sleeping bags and tents and learned that their artillery quickly relaxed after firing.
"The whole team, the whole team, we will go into the city after the bombardment. The sir allows you to rob one day. The son of a bitch, you can have a good day!" The officers in the regiment began to mobilize and reset the soldiers one by one. Organize.
In the last days, bandit-like army was the mainstream. The Dialgo regime's army relies on robbery and brutality to maintain order and morale. The officers controlled their subordinates with suffocating words and deeds, and the soldiers at the grassroots level vented the violence they endured towards the bottom of the society, which was even worse.
After punching and kicking, more than a thousand people were caught in their vehicles. The engines started, and a team of soldiers headed for Merida. When they wanted to come, the people in the city would be frightened at the sound of the explosive grenade, waiting for them to bully.
The artillery company of the third regiment fired dozens of shells and stopped firing. Suddenly, there was a lot of confusion in the city of Merida, which was suddenly subjected to shelling. The area that was hit by the shelling suffered heavy casualties, and the survivors were unable to remain rational and calm during the explosion.
"Stabilize, stabilize." Among the barricades outside the city, a Mexican officer was appeasing the subordinates who were fighting for the first time. A squat squatting in the trenches dug temporarily, everyone resisted and held on with fairly crude weapons.
The officers of the security police led by the team were infiltrated by the Liberation Army and received training from the Aurora Corps. At this moment, he can also laugh and laugh at his subordinates: "In Havana, the instructor used a heavy machine gun to shoot at us and exploded with a grenade around us. That tastes ..."
The ease of the officer made the soldiers feel better, and not long after the bombardment ended, the vigilant soldier in front shouted, "Head, the enemy is up."
A battalion of the third regiment swayed in armored vehicles and reached outside the city of Merida along Route 180 of the city. When they entered the city, they found that the road was cut. A wide and deep ditch appeared before them.
In the telescope, soldiers of the government forces got out of the car and cursed endlessly. Dozens of vehicles were crowded on the highway and were very dense. The squadron soldiers behind the barricades couldn't help his heart speeding up and his throat dry. He was trained in battlefield pressure, but the actual combat was also the first.
"The artillery group, I am a group of area B. There are about 300 enemies on the 180 road in front of me, the coordinates are 75th, 76th. Request a fire test fire." Leading officers directly on the radio Contact the security artillery group at the rear to serve as an artillery observation post.
"Understand, seventy-five, seventy-six areas, three test firings." The response on the radio was calm, and the artillery as a technical unit was personally controlled by the military advisory group from the Aurora Corps, all experienced veterans.
The enemy will come from there. This problem has been repeatedly confirmed during the investigation of the Merida security forces. At this moment, an enemy battalion appeared outside the city, and was immediately locked by the security forces gun group that had been calculated to fire Zhu Yuan ~ EbookFREE.me ~ A battalion of 12 sixty-six howitzers, all of which were 152 mm caliber . This thing was originally a rabbit's main artillery. At that time, it hit Vietnam's equipment, which was only slowly retired in recent years. Now Zhou Qingfeng was brought to waste soil.
Assisted by the existing digital artillery equipment of the wasteland, after the muzzle of the artillery group was simply adjusted, the commander issued a shooting order.
Twelve artillery shells were continuously bombarded and detonated continuously, and strong smoke and flames spewed out. The thunderous vibration spread throughout the city, and a series of large-caliber grenades flew out. The target is a third group of soldiers who are still silly, a few kilometers away.
The speed of the shell is more than 900 meters per second, which is two or three times faster than the sound. Before hearing the sound of the cannon, hail-like shells flew over and crashed to the ground.
Due to the clear target instructions, the artillery strike location was very accurate. The first artillery shell directly hit the crowd behind the ditch outside the city. More than ten kilograms of strong explosive burst out, and it was suddenly wrapped in thick smoke within a radius of tens of meters.
In the thick smoke, more than a dozen shells followed, and explosions continued. Occasionally I can see fragmented human bodies and vehicle parts being blown up into the sky, but what exactly is the thick smoke ..., do you still think about it? It must be the smelt that was blown up!
The sound of rumbling gunfire was heard more than ten kilometers away, and the second wave of the third regiment had just set off at this moment. Hearing a muffled thunderous sound from the distance, Head Kulik thought it was going to rain and thunder.
And because the Third Regiment ran from a path, it took a while for the security forces' reconnaissance force to move around for a long time before confirming its position.
But in this era of discoveries being wiped out, danger is about to come after the briefing is complete. The big guy with the thickest pipe behind the gun group also started to adjust the steering machine and the height machine. The gun pipe moved slightly and it was about to fire!
