City: I Have A Red Alert Base

Chapter 44: What is Fire Coverage!

Frontline positions of the Red Police Corps.

Chen Xuance, as the commander of the former enemy in the attack on the Northern Autonomous Region, was in a trench, observing the positions constructed by the Northern Autonomous Army through a telescope.

"I have the information. The front-line leader of Sheikh City is called Dere Valle. He studied in Eagle Country, and later served in the foreign mercenary regiment of Flange. He returned to the Northern Autonomous Region 20 years ago, backed by a large tribe. Support, and the direct line relationship with the great commander has risen all the way, and is called a lieutenant general in the Northern Autonomous Army." Ma Hongzhen brought some intelligence collected by the Red Police spies from the northern autonomous region.

"In addition, Dallol's dog general didn't die and was captured by Dre Valle." Ma Hongzhen mentioned another piece of information.

Because Dallol likes dog fights, he is also somewhat famous in the Northern Autonomous Army, and is known as the 'dog general'.

Originally, the Red Police Corps' combat plan was for the Air Force to conduct a beheading air strike, and then the armored group cleared the way and directly pushed the two infantry divisions in the eastern theater.

As a result, the dog general Darrow suddenly became addicted to gambling and ran to the Colosseum early in the morning to gamble on dogs. The Red Police spies were caught off guard and had no time to update the information. The Air Force still bombed Dallol as originally planned. barracks.

Dallol was frightened and ran away, even with more than 5,000 defenders of Aina City.

After Chen Xuance and Ma Hongzhen's troops broke through the defense line of the border troops, they ran wildly all the way, but they fell into the air.

And this guy didn't stop running to Oble. After Oble was attacked by the Red Police Air Force, he was frightened and ran directly to Sheikh City.

If it wasn't for the fact that Dallol left some eyeliners in Oble and brought back some information, and Dallol's own tribal support, and the reason for the 4,000 remnants of soldiers, I'm afraid that when he returned to Sheikh, he would have been killed by Derevalle as an example. .

This raid could not be considered a failure. After all, Dallol ran too fast, but other major cities in the eastern part of the Northern Autonomous Region, including Oble, fell under the control of the Red Police Corps.

Only a few small cities and some abandoned northern autonomous troops are like trapped beasts, and they are being surrounded and suppressed by the garrison led by Gord.

And the front line is here.

Because of Sheikh's preparations and the pass terrain of Sheikh City, it was not suitable for armored troops to assault. After the Red Police Army arrived at Sheikh, they did not launch an attack, but chose to build fortifications about 30 kilometers away from Sheikh. .

Sheikh's Northern Autonomous Army did not completely indent into the city, but took Sheikh City as the core and deployed a position ten kilometers forward. In addition to the mountains around Sheikh, the width of the entire enemy defense area was about forty kilometers. More than 30 kilometers in depth.

The front-line trenches of the two armies are less than ten kilometers away from the nearest point. In just half a day, the engineering unit of the Red Police Corps built a position ten kilometers long and twenty kilometers deep in the desert Gobi.

In the day and night of the attack, the Red Police Corps raided more than 400 kilometers, and the 1st Combined Combat Brigade came from the coast and rushed into the distance of more than 600 kilometers.

Whether it is personnel or equipment, it has entered a stage of fatigue and needs to be cultivated.

The front line was handed over to a number of infantry units in rotation, while others rested in trenches and under camouflage nets in the garrison.

Grizzlies and Challenger 2 main battle tanks are being repaired and refueled behind the positions.

A lot of drones and scouts were released around, and the alert range was increased to more than 50 kilometers to prevent sneak attack by the Northern Autonomous Army.

However, when the infantry and armored units rested, the artillery units were not idle.

All the way to fight, basically all the armored troops and infantrymen cooperated in the assault, the artillery troops did not even have a chance to fire, they kept running, and ran for hundreds of kilometers in the car.

The bones are already brittle.

So when the position was deployed, Chen Xuance decisively ordered the artillery to deploy, and gave the opponent some appetizers first.

On both sides of the Red Police Corps camp, in the Gobi, about fifteen kilometers away from the enemy's position, twenty-four 105mm self-propelled artillery have been deployed, as well as thirty-six M777 155mm towed howitzers, and twenty-four M270 multiple rocket launcher.

These heavy artillery pieces were deployed at a distance of 500 meters, surrounded by busy artillerymen and sappers, who gave these artillery a camouflage net of desert camouflage.

Wait until you get the bombardment order.

First a round of calibrated shelling.

Twenty-four 105-wheeled self-propelled guns and thirty-six M777 155mm towed guns fired.

With the aid of artillery radar, the first round of calibrated shelling was quickly fed back before fine-tuning the shelling elements.

The radar car of the M270 multiple rocket launcher was also turned on, ready to send a few rounds to the opposite side at any time.

The range of the 105mm self-propelled artillery is only about 11 kilometers. To penetrate into the enemy's position, it is necessary to use rocket extended-range projectiles, but this is a small problem.

The conventional range of the M777 155mm towed howitzer and the M270 multiple rocket launcher is more than 30 kilometers, and the extended-range ammunition can be used to hit further, basically wrapping the Sheikh's northern autonomous army positions within the range.

Therefore, after the calibration of the artillery bombardment was completed, the artillerymen of the Red Police Corps launched an intensive fire projection.

Chen Xuance's order was to fire two bases of shells first.

One base of 155mm shells is 50 rounds, two bases are 100 rounds, and thirty-six shells are 3,600 rounds.

Don't think that there are only 3,000 rounds of artillery shells. For these 3,600 shells, 72 trucks are needed to transport them.

With the average rate of fire of two rounds of one minute for the M777 howitzer, it takes about an hour to light the shells of these two bases.

The 105mm artillery has a larger base, and it takes about 40 to 50 minutes to complete two bases of shells.

As for the rocket launcher, its calculation method is different from that of ordinary barrel artillery because it is launched in multiple tubes.

Despite the differences, when the artillery of the Red Police Corps began to fire.

The entire position of the Northern Autonomous Army seemed to be raining sparks. One by one, huge explosion sparks rose from the positions of the Northern Autonomous Army. The huge power and shock wave of the explosion caused waves of dust to blow up the fortifications of the Northern Autonomous Army. Fried to pieces.

With each round of shells falling, a huge explosion would set off the remains of some Northern Autonomous Army soldiers flying in the air.

More than 20,000 soldiers of the Northern Autonomous Army were shivering while hiding in trenches and bunkers, as well as in individual anti-artillery holes. They kept praying that the shells would not fall on their heads.

For the first time, the Northern Autonomous Army, which used to only fight with warlords and tribal troops, and guerrillas, felt the coverage of firepower from the level of a big country and a powerful army, and for the first time deeply realized the cruelty of modern warfare.
