Chapter 286: Steel rainstorm

"I suspect that they are really preparing or brewing some conspiracy. These troops are fighting with us in Samarra just purely to delay time." Natasha further analyzed.
"No matter what conspiracy they are preparing, our ultimate goal is to occupy Samarra 100%. The next level goal is to reduce the casualties of our troops as much as possible. As for the rest, we must make concessions for these two goals."
Cai Ruichen took a deep breath and continued: "No matter what conspiracy the opponent is playing, what we have to do is to fight with our ultimate goal. Now, since the opponent is not on the bait, then we also adjust our tactics and order Zhao Long according to Changes in the battle situation, you weigh whether to start the second step of the battle plan in advance."
Cai Ruichen did not directly order Zhao Long to directly start the second step of the battle plan. As the frontline commander, Zhao Long should also have his own judgment.
Compared with Zhao Long's tactical command ability and the use of arms, Cai Ruichen thinks that he is still immature, so he also fully delegated power to Zhao Long and let him play.
After receiving the order, Natasha was about to pick up the communicator to notify Zhao Long, who thought Zhao Long just took the initiative to contact him.
Natasha, who had reached a conclusion, exchanged a few sentences with Zhao Long, then ended the communication and said to Cai Ruichen: "Zhao Long also noticed the unusual aura, and came to ask whether he would start the second step of the battle plan in advance. I have agreed."
"Okay, tell Zhao Long again, let go and fight, it's best to fight the enemy's true intentions." Cai Ruichen nodded and said.
In the frontline headquarters, after receiving the order, Zhao Long decisively issued the order: "Order the third infantry battalion to continue to drag the enemy in the city in Samarra;
According to the plan, the artillery group carried out fire coverage on the enemies outside Samarra, and all the artillery fired.
The third machine step is to cut directly into the opponent's core along the central axis;
The fourth infantry battalion is on the left and the second infantry battalion is on the right. In conjunction with the third battalion, the enemy is cut into five parts. All units attack in a vertical tactical formation. Side firepower.
The first battalion is the fastest maneuver. Go around behind the enemy's side. Waiting for my attack order..."
All orders were quickly communicated, south of Samarra, behind the south bank of the Tigris River, a group of five hundred heavy artillery. Sounded the horn of the whole battle.
All the artillery soldiers who were resting entered the combat position for the first time.
All the barrels were slowly raised. According to the artillery strike plan that has already been formulated, each artillery is rapidly adjusting its firing angle and firing elements.
The five-hundred heavy artillery guns in three cascades reached four kilometers horizontally. It stretched back 20 kilometers longitudinally, with 5,000 artillery and defensive forces. Scattered around every artillery.
A large number of shells were quickly pushed out from the temporary shelter, and the shelling orders were given. All artillery has only a few minutes of preparation time.
Now everyone needs to race against time.
Five hundred heavy artillery. No door has a caliber less than 155 mm.
Cai Ruichen used practical actions to tell the world what is called a war of local tyrants. In other words, what is meant by a serious waste of firepower.
however. None of the high-level officials of the countries who knew these 500 artillery pieces ridiculed Cai Ruichen for such a serious waste of firepower.
Because if there were such conditions to fight at their doorstep, they would do the same. No one could ignore the powerful deterrence brought by such multiple artillery. After all, soldiers are more valuable than shells.
With the construction of modern troops, there are really not many countries in the world that can maintain more than 500 heavy artillery pieces.
Even in the United States, all the Army’s heavy artillery combined, there is not the number of 500.
The whole world probably owns so many heavy artillery pieces in North Korea and China and Russia.
In the history of human warfare, there are few wars in which more than 500 heavy artillery with a caliber of 155 mm or more have been used at one time.
This battle will once again be demonstrated in the world, the unparalleled super lethality of the heavy artillery group.
Xie Xiaolong, who was live broadcast, seemed to have received the news, and the live broadcast scene also turned to the heavy artillery group.
However, the heavy artillery group that is discharged is not a picture that can be installed at all. Only one part of the artillery position can be seen on the live broadcast.
"Visitors from all over the world, wait for us to see the powerful charm of the once king of war, the Marlin division who has already done a full offensive, and the five hundred heavy artillery in the heavy artillery cluster will soon sound the horn of a full offensive."
As Xie Xiaolong's voice fell, the augmented reality projection screen began to increase, the large-scale artillery group was more comprehensively displayed in front of everyone, and the shelling began randomly.
The senior officials in the Islamic State who are also watching the live broadcast, when they saw this picture, when they wanted to notify the frontline troops, they couldn't contact them no matter what.
At this time, the shelling had begun.
The picture of a salvo of five hundred heavy artillery fires, I am afraid that few people in this world have actually seen it.
But starting today, more and more people will see the charm of war displayed by artillery.
That’s right, it’s the charm, the stretch of guns, and roars at the same time. Everyone can see the flames from all the muzzles, playing at 64 times slower speed, and see the fire from the guns. Cannonballs burst out of flames and smoke.
As the camera was pulled up, dense explosions and fires instantly covered hundreds of square kilometers of land between Samarra and Tikrit.
The dust from the explosion rolled up the yellow sand in the desert, and the entire sky was suddenly covered by gunpowder and dust.
Everyone can only see the explosion in the dust and smoke, and the sound of explosions is constantly coming from the video screen.
More than three thousand shells were fired rapidly in one minute~EbookFREE.me~ and landed beside IS soldiers.
However, the shelling did not end in this way. Natasha in the base quickly sent the rocket battalion where the Islamic State soldiers were denser in the target location.
The rocket battalion that has never fired before, behind the eight 333 mm rocket missile launchers, the launchers have been erected at an angle of 45 degrees.
Following the launch order, large-caliber rocket launchers were propelled by solid-fuel engines and plunged into the battlefield like a rain of arrows.
The wake of the rocket propelled a large area of ​​dust on the launch site. After more than a hundred rockets and missiles were launched, the entire site was covered by dust and smoke.
The rockets and missiles that had flown over 70 or 80 kilometers were all split at 300 meters above the target, and 400 sub-bombs in the warhead fell like a steel rainstorm. Each sub-bomb contains a high-explosive incendiary bomb weighing 1.27 kg.
A rocket missile of this kind can cover an area of ​​4,000 square meters, and it can be said to be terrifying to the people inside. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
