blood of vietnam war

Chapter 170 Nine m60

As the Vietnamese tanks rushed into the canyon one after another and were blown up by us, the doubts in my heart became heavier and heavier.

The Vietnamese army sent up one after another all American light tanks. To be honest, this kind of tank is not suitable for attacking dangerous places like canyons. There is no other reason... This kind of tank is too fragile. Its breakdown, even throwing a few more bundles of grenades under its chassis can blow it up (the thickness of its chassis armor is only [-] mm).

At this time, I couldn't help regretting that I detonated the directional explosives arranged in advance too early. I only blamed that I was not familiar with the model and performance of the tank. explosives to deal with.

However, those directional explosives still played a big role. Not to mention the destruction of the tanks, the results in dealing with the Vietnamese infantry were also very significant.

Every time the infantry of the Vietnamese army wants to follow the tanks and attack the second half of our army... Well, as long as a directed explosive is detonated, with a "boom", the rubble falling from the sky can knock down more than half of them, Even if the other half is not dead, it only has half life...No one can be intact under the lasing of the rubble.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Vietnamese army to cooperate with tanks and tanks. This also allows our bazooka shooters to easily approach the Vietnamese army tanks and kill them one by one.

So... Although the battle lasted only over half an hour, there were seven or eight wrecked tanks and hundreds of corpses of Vietnamese soldiers in the canyon.In an instant, the whole canyon was filled with the smell of blood, gasoline and burnt. Fortunately, the wind in this canyon was relatively strong, otherwise we would be killed by Kaoru if we hid in it.

Because of this battle, the directional explosives I arranged are also depleted.But I am not very worried, because the path in the canyon has already been blocked by about ten tanks... So I think, even if the Vietnamese army pulls the T62 up at this time, I am afraid it will not be smooth. Pass it.

"Second platoon leader, how is the situation?" Captain Luo asked on the walkie-talkie.

"Everything is normal!" I replied: "The Yue Guizi launched a fierce attack on the canyon with tanks, but we beat them down!"

"Good fight!" Captain Luo replied: "The Yue Devils have also launched an attack on the high ground, and the attack is very fierce. It seems that the Yue Devils are making the last desperate struggle. You must guard the canyon, and you must not let it go. The soldiers of the Vietnamese army passed one by one, is the mission clear?"

"Clear!"

In fact, I don’t need Company Commander Luo to know the importance of this canyon. What’s strange to me is... From the previous battles, I can also feel that the commander of the Vietnamese army is a smart person, but I don’t know why... Now he But he would do something stupid like this: barge in with a bunch of light tanks and block his way.

"Hey! What is the company commander worried about?" After I hung up the walkie-talkie, Wu Zhijun said next to him: "If he knows that there are bombed tanks everywhere in this canyon, I'm afraid he should be relieved. Come on!"

Wu Zhijun had been working in logistics before, but in this battle, he led his soldiers to kill five tanks in one go, so it was inevitable that he would be a little excited when he spoke now.

"That's right!" The scholar stretched his head to look at the tanks on fire, nodded and said, "Look at this posture, even if we let go of the devils to come in... I'm afraid they will have to spend a lot of time." Less work! I didn't expect the Yueguizi tank to be so unbeatable..."

But I am not as optimistic as the soldiers. The reason is that I believe that the commander of the 316a Division of the Vietnamese Army will not be so stupid, and it is more likely that even I don't know what he is thinking.

The ensuing battle soon proved my fears justified.

Just as the soldiers were still discussing the battle excitedly, there was another bang from the entrance of the valley, and a new round of shelling by the Vietnamese army began again.

It's just that the difference from last time is that this time along with the shells from the Vietnamese army, there are also a few smoke bombs...

"Gas bomb!" I heard a soldier scream, and this sentence quickly caused panic among the soldiers.

"It's not a gas bomb!" I said, "It's a smoke bomb! Comrades, get your gas masks ready!"

The reason why I determined so quickly that this is not a gas bomb is not that I think Yue Guizi will abide by some agreement not to use gas bombs that are prohibited by law, but because the wind direction in the canyon is blowing from south to north... If Yue Guizi hit it like this It's a poison gas bomb, and the poison gas will all be blown to themselves in a second.

So I quickly had another question, since the Yue Guizi knew that the wind was blowing in their direction, why did they use the smoke bomb?The smoke will also blow back, won't it?

Then it was exactly as I expected, because our army was at a corner, and the wind was facing the Vietnamese army... so the smoke bombs could affect us very little, and most of them were blown towards the front half. After a while, the first half of the canyon was covered in white smoke and nothing could be seen.

However, even so, Yue Guizi's shells still exploded one by one, and the smoke bombs continued to be fired one after another...

Obviously... Yue Guizi is hiding something.

Smoke bombs can blind us, and cannonball explosions can blind us.But what are they hiding?I am puzzled by this.

After listening carefully to the sound of the guns, I found that there seemed to be some tank motor sounds in the gaps between the shells... Could it be that the Vietnamese army sent t62 up again?

This is indeed possible. A dozen smoke bombs can make us invisible, but this will not affect the sight of the t62. After all, it has night vision devices, doesn't it?

But this seems unreasonable, because we can basically say that we have given up the first half, and the Vietnamese army can drive the T62 up without doing this.

The most important thing is... I don't believe that ten tanks are blocked in the canyon. There is no way for this T62 to drive through.

Several times I wanted to go up to see what happened, but I knew it was futile to do so.

One is that the large-caliber artillery of the Vietnamese army kept bombarding the corner, which made the corner a dangerous area where flying stone shrapnel raged, and anyone who approached there would only have a dead end.

The other is because I know I can't see much if I go past it, because there must be a cloud of smoke.

So I can only wait in the second half, waiting... I don't know what we are waiting for, but I know that this may be the last blow of the Vietnamese army.

The Yue Devils also seem to be engaging in a tyrannical blockade: if we win, the Vietnam Army will wipe out our army and rush out of the canyon;

So I also know that this blow will definitely not be so easy to deal with.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see any movement from the Vietnamese army, but the sound of the tank's motor became clearer and clearer on the other side. I couldn't help frowning... What is the Vietnamese army tank doing?They didn't seem to be here to fight a war, but to build roads.

What?road repair...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help being taken aback... That's right!The Vietnamese tanks are not here to fight, but to build roads.

What road to build?

Of course, this trail in the canyon.

Isn't the trail blocked by tanks?No matter how much you repair it, you can't get past it, right?

The trail is blocked, but the small river next to it is not.

Because the river was cut off, the small river had turned into a one-meter-deep ditch. If the Vietnamese army could block this ditch...it could become another path through the canyon.

Damn, why didn't I think of this!

All the actions Yue Guizi made before were probably preparations for this trail.

First of all, artillery fire is preparing to cover the attack of light tanks. The purpose of these light tanks' attacks...the purpose is not to break through our army's defense line, but to consume our army's landmines and other explosive devices in the canyon.

Clearly, they achieved their strategic goals, as I had only a few anti-infantry charges remaining from my deployment of directed explosives.

The next step is to use the sound of artillery and smoke bombs to hide the operation of the engineering vehicles. As for why the Yueguizi have engineering vehicles... In fact, troops generally have engineering vehicles, especially artillery units.The reason is that artillery units often have to quickly open up artillery positions... You must know that Vietnam is a country with many mountains and forests. If the artillery needs to quickly deploy to provide fire support for the frontline troops in a war, it is necessary to use hoes or hatchets To deal with uneven mounds or dense forests... I'm afraid the artillery positions are still not ready after this battle is over.

Therefore, engineering vehicles are an indispensable tool for artillery.

Of course, the engineering vehicles used in the army are not like the bulldozers and cranes we usually see... Although these things can also complete the task, if the enemy scouts find out that they can shoot a few shots or fire a mortar. It can't be used anymore.

In order to make the engineering vehicle capable of fighting and also play the role of supporting engineering, someone suddenly designed a multi-functional tank. This tank can usually participate in battles like ordinary tanks. The bulldozer blade can be turned into a bulldozer, and the submersible equipment can be installed to cross the river, and it can even be used as a crane, a pontoon bridge, etc.

Apparently, that's the truck that's working in the first half of the canyon right now, and I believe it has night vision because it's working under smoke bombs.

I later learned that it was actually an m60 tank captured by the Vietnamese army from the Yankees. It has an m24 active infrared periscope, which can be driven or worked at night.

From this point of view, the equipment of the 316a Division of the Vietnamese Army is quite good. It has all the Soviet-style equipment and American-style equipment that Vietnam can afford. (To be continued.)
