I want to be a warlord

Chapter 362 Escort battle.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

RPG feels slow, but in fact it is very fast. You can see it, but you can't react at all.

The explosion occurred near the highway. Fire, black smoke, and sand and dust kicked up by the shock wave completely obscured a section of the highway more than 200 meters away.

The convoy of close to 100 vehicles was too long. In order to prevent heavy losses after being attacked, the teacup also specifically requested to increase the distance between vehicles, which was more than 2 kilometers away.

This arrangement undoubtedly saved many people.

In a short period of time, Tea Cup did not know how many vehicles were directly hit by the bombing and how many vehicles were damaged, but most of the vehicles drove towards the Gobi Desert on the other side.

After all, the range of the RPG is limited. After the convoy rushed down the Gobi Desert for more than 100 meters, the teacup ordered loudly: "Armored vehicles, Hummers, turn around, and kill me back. The armored vehicles are in front, and the Hummers are behind."

"The second wave of armed pickup trucks attacks, the troop carrier stops, everyone gets out and follows quickly!"

"The transport vehicle continues to move forward and remains on standby for about 300 meters."

The offense cannot be rushed, there must be a sense of hierarchy. The BMP-1 has very thin skin, especially the side armor, so there must be a Humvee guarding the side, the purpose is to prevent infantry from outflanking and approaching from the side.

There are a larger number of armed pickup trucks on the sides and back of the Humvee for cover.

The armored vehicle roof draws firepower from the front, the Humvee is responsible for mopping up, the armed pickup truck is responsible for cover, and the infantry is responsible for finishing.

From turning around to fighting back, it only took about 15 seconds. After crossing the road, he went straight to the point where the attack had just been launched.

In order to improve the hit rate, RPGs are generally launched at a distance of about 100-150 meters. This distance is not a big deal in front of an armored vehicle.

The RPG on the terrorists' side has completed reloading, but the armored vehicle and the Humvee behind it will not sit still.

Facing the terrorists who were not afraid of death and stood up and roared to fire RPG, more than 20 machine guns on the roof of the car started firing together, and the bullets swept past like a typhoon.

In theory, the hit rate of both sides is not high, but there are too many bullets.

Five or six terrorists were hit by machine guns on the spot. Their bodies twitched a few times as if they were electrocuted and then fell backwards. The RPG shot directly into the sky.

On the militia side, 11 RPGs hit again, and the driver of the armored vehicle rushing in front subconsciously began to evade. In fact, it was of little use...

On the battlefield, the hit rate of RPGs is very low, and the evasion might end up hitting RPGs that shouldn't be hit...

Teacup in the back nervously poked his head out from the roof of the car and looked at the battlefield ahead. This was his first time commanding a large-scale encounter.

He had never been exposed to anything similar when he was in the US military. When he was training officers in these militiamen in Bairwanai, he took some command courses.

Before coming here, he was caught and forced into prison by a group of people who taught him about possible attacks and strategies for dealing with different situations, and then Wang Zhen chased him away and put him on the shelf.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

Amidst the dense explosions, three armored vehicles rushed out of the area filled with black smoke. The teacup relaxed and tightened at the same time, and one armored vehicle was shot.

We can only see after the fact whether the hit was a high-explosive bomb or an armor-piercing bomb.

If it was a high-explosive bomb, maybe someone could survive.

After rushing to a distance of more than 50 meters, there will be no chance for terrorists to use RPG. What is left is armored vehicles and Humvees constantly harvesting lives.

There were not many terrorists, only about 50 of them, and they were all killed quickly.

After Tea Cup ordered a battlefield to be built and brought the corpses of the deceased, he immediately evacuated towards Hit's temporary camp.

After receiving the report, Wang Zhen didn't say anything.

In fact, when encountering this situation, the best way to deal with it is to distance yourself, directly use heavy machine guns to suppress fire at a distance of 300 meters, and then advance the infantry bit by bit to eliminate the opponent.

The loss is minimal, but it is time consuming.

In the case of the teacup, in order to prevent a second attack by terrorists, this method can only be used for a quick fix.

Two consecutive escorts were carried out to transport all the most urgent machinery without delaying the operation of the construction site.

After the transportation was stopped, the temporary camp was not dismantled. Instead, it was reinforced to a certain extent at Wang Zhen's request.

While doubling the number of forts in the temporary camp, it was transformed into a semi-permanent fort.

More than 40 forts stand near the road, and 200 people are stationed here.

It is also equipped with a 105mm recoilless rifle and a large number of M72s, some of which are confined space launchers such as the M72E8.

In addition, there are 3 sets of AT-3 anti-tank missiles.

This camp, 60 kilometers away from Ramadi, made Khatib Hafez a little unhappy.

An army of 1000 men was sent, with tanks and armored vehicles, to launch an attack.

But the consequences... are hard to describe.

Theoretically, the effective range of the M1A1's main gun is 2.5 kilometers, but in the hands of terrorists, don't think about hitting anything within a range of less than 1000 meters.

On the Gobi Desert, without any obstruction of sight, after approaching 1000 meters, we were immediately attacked by AT-3s from the militia.A tank was destroyed on the spot by the AT-3's concentrated firepower.

The terrorists, who were afraid of losses, could only allow tanks to conduct shelling attempts from two kilometers away, and then sent armored vehicles and infantry to advance again.

As a result, they were once again hit fiercely by the 105 recoilless rifle. Four armored vehicles were destroyed on the spot, and they had to retreat in embarrassment again.

Facing this kind of fortress group, even anti-tank missiles will have a greatly reduced effect on the sandbags outside the fortress. The best way is to use helicopters to strike from the air, or bombard them with artillery groups.

But obviously this is something that terrorists do not possess.

Khatib Hafez did not want to suffer too much loss, so he could only give up in frustration.

……

After the conflict in Hit this time, Khatib Hafez ceased his activities, and Wang Zhen did not provoke any more.

On this side, the river grooming project was quietly started, while on the other side, Khatib Hafiz was also blocking Bairwana.

Many things are simple to say, but not so easy to do.

To block the goods transported to Barwana, the road is easy to say, because the section between Ramadi and Barwana was cut off because of the river, people were taken away by Wangzhen, and Khatib Hafiz directly set up a blockade. Just let vehicles pass.

But what about the railway?
……

"Recently, there have been many conflicts between our Democratic and Peace Party and the Jonah Mosque, a terrorist group that occupied Ramadi..."

In the big market, before it opens in the morning, the loudspeaker starts playing.

"The contradiction between the enemy and us is irreconcilable, and we will never compromise with terrorists. We would like to inform everyone to be careful in the transportation of goods in the near future. According to our estimates, Khatib Hafiz is likely to have a problem with the road to Bairwa." The traffic lines in Nai are blocked... It is recommended that everyone change the freight route and take the eastern railway, bypassing Kirkuk."

The message was played ten times over the loudspeaker to make sure everyone understood it before it was turned off.

As soon as the news came out, the entire market was in chaos. The waiters wanted to notify the bosses, and some bosses also started asking each other about the situation and trying to find ways to deal with it.

In modern times, transportation lines are blood vessels. If the blood vessels are cut off, that person will not live.

Bao Zhongping, Nie Huixiong, and Dai Jianjia, several people who were relatively close to each other, came to Wang Zhen together and wanted to ask about the specific situation.

Wang Zhen didn’t hide it either.

"It's impossible to block traffic, right?" Several people looked at each other and Nie Huixiong said.

"What's impossible?" Wang Zhen was puzzled.

"Block the traffic!" Nie Huixiong thought for a while and said, "Brother Wang, if you don't do this, you may not understand some details. It's almost impossible to block the traffic in Bairvanai!"

"Huh!" Wang Zhen sat up straight suddenly, regained his energy, "Tell me."

"It's not possible to open a big market everywhere. If Brother Wang didn't choose Baierwanai, I don't say that he will never succeed, but the chances are too small, and there is no prospect of development." Nie Huixiong explained: "First of all, , There is a railway from Baghdad leading directly to Syria. This railway passes through Fallujah and Ramadi, then passes through several towns such as Hitt and then reaches Barwana, and then enters Syria through several towns such as Fuhaimi and Anais. The Syrian territory will pass through Deir ez-Zor to the terrorist capital of Raqqa."

"In addition, the railway from Kirkuk to Bairwaneh will eventually merge with this railway and lead to Syria."

"This railway is the lifeline of Bairwana, rather than the lifeline of terrorists!" Nie Huixiong said with a sneer: "Just because Khatib Hafiz wants to block this railway line? That's not even a wait. If we, Bairwanai, get screwed, the Iraqi side will first explode on the spot!"

Wang Zhen couldn't help but fell into deep thought, "Then, he can specifically seize Bairwanai's goods."

"That's hard to say. When I deliver the goods, I write the address to the five towns on the border. It's really impossible to write Dair ez-Zor, and then I can unload the goods in advance when I arrive at Barwana!" Bao Zhongping said with a smile: " It just costs a little more shipping.”

Wang Zhen suddenly realized, yes, for this group of people, they have done a lot of illegal immigration and smuggling. Cats have their own catwalks, and mice have their own paths.

Of course, if Khatib Hafiz is good, he can also directly control the train to stop stopping in Bairwanah.

But if the train dared not stop, Wang Zhen would dare to let the terrorists know about the gunshots on the plain and what railway guerrillas are!

What is a transportation hub? If you don’t let me use it, I won’t let you use it either!
"In other words, I'm worried in vain?" Wang Zhen laughed.

"It doesn't count." Bao Zhongping said with a smile: "It doesn't waste time, but the freight is indeed high. In addition, not all goods take the railway line. If it is a highway line, it will indeed be blocked by terrorists, eh , the highway line actually carries a lot of goods.”

"What's the proportion?" Wang Zhen asked.

"About half."

"Why so many?"

"Railway wagons are difficult to obtain. The number of trains is limited, and the transport capacity is capped. Moreover, the goods are basically decided one or two months in advance." Bao Zhongping explained: "The advantage of trains is low freight, but the disadvantage is Inflexible, I think back in China in the 90s, if anyone could speak out on the issue of carriages, they could easily make millions every year."

Wang Zhen nodded, and now he really understood why Hujian Group could obviously use the railway instead of the railway. At that time, there was no such project at all, so where to find the train temporarily.

Therefore, a safe highway line must be in hand!
Tikrit must be played!
No fight!

Of course, just don't be so anxious.

……

Damn, I’m a little stuck...
