Seven hundred and ninetieth chapters pressure mines
"The enemy armored troops were discovered, which were 1,800 meters away from us." A member of the special forces in a wheeled infantry fighting vehicle in the front reported calmly.
Hades in the second car has also discovered the target at this moment. Judging from the number of infrared headlights, the opponent is an armored brigade, with about one hundred tanks, which is already a very high number.
Moreover, Hades then calculated that in this case, the opponent would arrive at the air base before 5 a.m. Although there were about 2,000 soldiers airlifted by Iraq in the air base at this time, they were all light troops. Whether they were paratroopers or wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, they could not fight against the T-55 tanks on the front. Although the opponent's tanks were also old main battle tanks and second-line equipment, they were tanks after all!
"We need to be here to block the opponent's tank troops, delay their actions, and wait until dawn, which will be the end of these tanks." Hades said.
By dawn, our armored troops would almost arrive in Damascus, and the fighter planes in the air base would be deployed. At that time, these Syrian rebel tanks would probably be destroyed.
Now, let your troops delay the other party’s actions!
Hades gave them an order via radio.
Although the Soviet-made Seg anti-tank missiles are also equipped on the desert leopard infantry fighting vehicles, this first-generation anti-tank missile uses visual aiming, manual control, and wired transmission instructions, which are almost unusable in this dark night. Although they also have night vision devices, when they use night vision devices to observe, the flames emerging from the tail of the missile will seriously interfere with the shooter's sight. Therefore, this kind of missile has almost no night launch capability. Kusai has already begun to prepare Iraq's own anti-tank missiles, but the gap is still very large now.
However, they do not want to block head-on. They just delay the other party's actions, or harassment, which is also a basic task of the special forces.
On the desert leopard in the front, several soldiers quickly jumped out of the rear hatch door and laid several Type 72 anti-tank mines on the road.
An extremely common move for infantry to deal with tanks is to lay anti-tank mines on the opponent's must-pass path.
However, on the battlefield, no one knows where the other party's tanks will come from, so it is effective to lay them in large quantities. But now, they have no doubts because the other party is walking on this highway!
The t-55 tank uses all-metal single-pin tracks. This track is a great damage to the road surface. However, the current 4th Armored Division has no time to pay attention to this kind of thing. If they don’t take the road, they have to travel off-road from the land with low speed and long time. The key is that the bumps are too severe! The second-line armored troops have not been trained very well and have not been trained with such high intensity. Therefore, if they are asked to get off the road and advance from the wilderness, they will do nothing.
Therefore, they only need to arrange a few press-haired anti-tank mines to achieve a good effect. As long as one explosion occurs, they will never advance from the highway again. In this way, their marching speed will immediately decrease.
After laying several mines, they returned to the desert leopard, and the desert leopard began to drive off the road.
However, as soon as he drove off the highway, he heard Hades' voice in the radio: "Put mines on the roadside within 100 meters of the two sides of the highway at a distance of five meters, and lay mines on the roadside, so the speed should be fast!"
These guys can't be so cheap. When Hades was evacuating from the side, he suddenly thought of this trick. After the tank in the front touched the mine, the tank behind would definitely drive off the road from both sides. Then just add some food to them to let them know that during the war period, it would cost a lot to maneuver along the road.
After laying the mines, the last desert leopard began to evacuate the area at high speed. The wheeled infantry fighting vehicle showed good mobility. The 8*8 drive, coupled with excellent suspension and advanced chassis, made it easy to drive in the wild.
The engine at the rear of the car body was roaring, and wearing a tank cap, you could still feel the huge noise. When drilling into the stuffy tank, the armored soldiers of the Fourth Armored Division felt very difficult.
At this time, except for a few officers and most of the soldiers thought that they were going to suppress the rebellion, and there were rebels in the air base they were going to.
In the tank in front, the tank crew of the Third Battalion, one company and three squads were moving forward with concentration.
The one who drove the tank was a soldier who was familiar with the terrain here. He knew that now he was getting closer and closer to the air force base and they would enter a state of combat at any time. Therefore, the cannon on this tank had been loaded with a grenade to deal with the threats at any time. The tank's turret was always pointing forward.
The high-speed moving tracks rub against the double-edge-mounted load-bearing wheels below from time to time. Because there is no pulley, when the tracks are too loose, they will droop on the load-bearing wheels below, making a harsh sound.
After nearly two hours of continuous operation, the driver's legs were already a little tired, but he could not loosen the accelerator and had to push forward at full speed.
The metal track is moving forward continuously, and the tank has good maneuverability because it is walking on the track and provides the largest grounding area.
Suddenly, the track that had turned to the ground at the front was pressed onto something 10 cm thick. Before it could transmit the vibration to the vehicle body through the unreliable shock absorption, an unexpected situation suddenly happened.
Because this is a Type 72 metal shell anti-tank mine. With the pressure of the tank's tracks, the steel disc spring pressing mechanism began to operate. Then, the Type 72-a explosion-resistant fuse occurred, igniting the 5 kg of **, which was each accounted for half of TNT and Hesorkin. Then, a huge explosion came.
"Boom!" The mine was blooming in the dark, and the tracks on this side were completely blown off in the flames. However, the driving wheel was still moving, and I saw that the tracks were cramped and quickly left the car body and scattered behind.
The tank continued to break forward a few meters and stopped. The four crew members inside were already stunned by the huge explosion.
A tank that followed followed suddenly braked. At the same time, when there was inevitable danger of collision, the driver urgently pulled the operating lever in his hand. The track on the left stopped moving, and the track on the right was still rotating. The t-55 with a thirty tons made a beautiful sharp turn.
Unfortunately, there was another loud bang afterwards. I originally planned to pass by the bombed tank, but unfortunately I was caught.
However, with the encounter between these two tanks, the tanks behind had enough time to stop.
To put it simply, it means that it explodes when there is a certain amount of pressure. For this type of 72 pressing lightning imported from the Eastern power, the pressure caused by the pressure between 180 and 400 kilograms can be triggered.
(Anti-tank mines, some say, only tanks are pressed on, and people do not blow up. This is a complete misunderstanding. If people stand still, then only fat people over 180 kilograms will explode. However, people are definitely not stationary, but step on and stop quickly, then there will be problems with overweight. A bloody example. In the 1980s, an instructor explained this anti-tank mine and said that this mine did not harm infantry. Moreover, he made an example and stepped on it. He had been doing this before, and there was no problem. But this time, his movements were a little fast, and the result was no bones!)
The tank in front encountered a landmine! Idley, who came to command the battle this time, frowned and then gave an order: leave the road and move forward from the field next to him!
He didn't know that there were actually only a few mines on the road, and the rest were waiting for them on both sides of the road!
After receiving the order, the armored soldiers behind began to reluctantly drive off the highway. What comforted them was that they were only forty kilometers away. They were about to reach their destination after another two hours of bumping.
However, no one expected that as they drove off the road, more than a dozen tanks were unfortunately caught.
Could it be that there is a minefield here?
Idley shook his head. It was impossible. They made a temporary decision on the road. Even if the other party wanted to arrange it, they would only throw away a few mines in a hurry, and would never set it all into a minefield.
Idley knew that he had not had much time. If he could not enter the airport before dawn, they would become very passive. He also knew the inside story. If this coup was successful, he would also be promoted, so he had to take a gamble!
There are no mine-demining tanks in his team, so he can only give a hard order: no matter the mines on the ground, keep moving forward!
Hearing this order, while cursing in his heart, the armored soldiers began to move forward.
However, very smoothly, since they drove off the road, they did not press the mines anymore. But the bumpy ground slowed down their speed.
"It seems that we have taken the risk of attacking, and we must delay their actions." Hades, in an infantry fighting vehicle in the distance, looked at the light spots still moving, and made up his mind again...!~!
