There is an industrial area more than ten kilometers north of Queretaro. From the topographical point of view, this industrial area is wrapped by two low hills. Highway 111 passing from the industrial area has become the destination for Queretaro One of the main points.
"Damn, those officers want us to be stationed here?" A government soldier shouted almost sadly, looking at the flat terrain that was several kilometers wide on both sides of Highway 111. "It's impossible to defend here."
Suzano's air and ground power was out of line. The air force came too fast. The ground armored troops were still dozens of kilometers away. After sending out a long-range artillery-specific unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, the time difference of about an hour or so was caught by Meng Xinjun, who commanded the battle.
Approximately a regiment's strength was deployed by the Meng Xinjun at a dozen commanding heights within 20 kilometers of the city. A platoon commanded by Raphael was ordered to go out more than ten kilometers to become an observation post, and they were asked to arrange it on a hill near the industrial area.
"We have to go up the mountain," Raphael said, holding a map in his hand. After fighting for a few months, he was already an authentic veteran. After receiving a short training course for platoon officers, he was thrown into the service of the new Mexican government army.
Raphael's platoon has distinctive earthen features. The Sixty-Five military uniform in the combat readiness warehouse looks rather rustic, and the armed belt around the waist is even more awkward. Fifty-six submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles look weak, and the only two bazookas don't look like equipment that can fight wars.
It's just that Mexican government forces now look like this. Anyway, the cheap bargains can't be too demanding.
The recruits in the platoon were frightened to run to the forefront of the battle, but Raphael knew it wasn't too dangerous. The hills on both sides of Highway 111 are large. Although the terrain is gentle and the altitude is not high, it is better than squatting in a bunker and waiting for shells.
The truck ran as soon as Raphael's discharge was in place. And when they were going up the mountain, dozens of old trucks ran back in time.
"Rocket gun?" Several rails loaded on the truck made several soldiers speculate. "Aren't the gunners all behind? The rocket gun needs to go so far?"
The round-headed, old-headed truck didn't move on, but stopped and spread out under the eyes of Raphael et al. There were a lot of busy officers and soldiers jumping down from the car. Obviously they had urgent tasks.
The two troops were not far away, and Raphael didn't understand what these people were doing, he just shouted, "What are you doing?"
The officers of the convoy did not have time to talk to Raphael, only to arrange a few trucks carrying 'rocket launchers'. After a while, the launcher on the car lifted and turned, and then started firing.
The roar of the rocket drove a strong air wave, and the blowing dust could fly dozens of meters away. Raphael's platoon also rushed to climb up the mountain, and after they walked a distance, they discovered that the rockets that had occurred in the convoy did not fly far, and after emitting two kilometers, they automatically scattered white umbrella flowers.
"It looks like a rocket mine mine," Raphael said.
A rocket sprayed ten umbrella flowers, with green shell anti-tank mines hanging under each white umbrella flower. What Raphael saw was actually a seventy-nine rocket mine team responsible for distributing sixty-nine antitank mines.
A four-volley salvo can quickly set up three football field-sized minefields two kilometers away. After multiple loading and launching, highway 111 was blocked by hills on both sides of the road.
After the deployment of anti-tank mines, mine-laying forces also fired anti-infantry mines at the minefield. Before the advent of enemy armored forces, the flat junction in this area was completely blocked by a minefield of five kilometers in length and one kilometer in width.
Looking at the white umbrella flowers scattered on the ground, all the soldiers, including Raphael, could not help but exclaim. Everyone felt that there was such a blockade of minefields, and it was really difficult for the enemy to come over.
Climb a gentle hill one or two hundred meters away from the highway, arrange a bunker, observe the post and retreat, Raphael set up the radio, and held a telescope to stare at the wide road blocked by the minefield.
"The platoon leader, isn't the enemy able to get through?"
"When there is mine, there is mine clearance. We can rocket mine, and the enemy can also mine mine. The minefield can only delay the advance of the enemy."
Trained in short courses, Raphael is a little more knowledgeable. It didn't take long to see a helicopter coming from the north for reconnaissance. He tried to intercept it with a single-armed air defense missile, but the helicopter circled in the distance and flew away.
As far as forty or fifty kilometers away, an advance unit of an armored division south of Suzano temporarily stopped and set up a basic air defense position.
Both sides have heavy artillery and drones, especially the Aurora Corps has a large number of M7 ballistic missiles. No one will stupidly hit the opponent's defense position directly.
After sending drones and helicopters several times, McCain, who was in charge of commanding the 'Munition Front' unit, groaned in front of the electronic map: "The Air Force reported that Queretaro ’s outpost was more than ten kilometers outside the city Several key intersections were also blocked with minefields.
We need to occupy several hill highs on either side of the intersection as artillery observation posts. As for the minefield, we can also use rocket artillery to mine, and we can use the rocket artillery to strike enemy positions at a long range. Our M270 is awesome, it can do a lot of things. "
M270 is really good, can do everything.
After issuing several orders, Mr. McCain felt that he was still exhausted. After thinking about it for a long time, I realized that the number of fighters dispatched by the Air Force was too small, and the opponent was not able to blow up the enemy before the army arrived. I was afraid that the next battle would not conform to the habit of the commander of the United States.
Never mind, let the artillery come first.
Greater American artillery is also very powerful.
The division commanded that a battalion of eighteen M270s began to strike precisely on targets already found on the battlefield. Various guided rockets and mine-clearing rockets screamed and flew to the sky. This battalion fired at a distance of tens of kilometers from the rockets, hiding from the enemy's strike range.
The stingy rocket flew out like no money, and a volley was enough to cover an area of the boss. Dozens of old-fashioned ‘seven-nine’ mine-laying mines took only half a day to set up, and in ten breaths they were broken.
"Immediately evaluate the effects of the battle and confirm the remaining status of the enemy's line of defense ~ EbookFREE.me ~ We need to carry out a second round of fire strikes. Once we have achieved our goals, we will use helicopters to seize Queretaro ’s high ground."
Mr McCain is looking forward to the next battle. In this era of discovery and destruction, he only needs to constantly figure out the enemy's layout through various investigative methods, and then it is time to exert his firepower advantage.
Only half an hour later, after reading the investigation information of drones and helicopters, the staff reported that: "Sir, we really need a second round of fire strike."
Um ..., as expected.
"Need to supplement those targets?"
"All."
"All? Even the enemy's minefield has not been cleaned?"
"No, we cleaned it up, but the enemy made up quickly."
"Hmm ... it! Hit the second round."
After half an hour ...
"Sir, we're afraid we need a third round of fire strike."
"Don't tell me that the minefield has not been cleaned."
"Sorry, sir. But the enemy really restored the minefield again."
"Wow, yeah ... another round."
In half an hour ...
"Sir, this strike was very successful. We even killed the other mine team."
"Oh, are you? The guy in charge of the investigation did a good job, and our rocket artillery battalion is great."
"But the enemy drove another mine convoy and blocked the intersection again."
"This ..., the damned fourth round of firepower."
Still half an hour ...
"Is the minefield done? A small minefield, it can't stop us."
"Sorry, sir, but this time we were hit by fire."
