Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Kentrit is a medium-sized city in Gan Guo. It is located in the center of the southern part of Gan Guo. Although it is small in scale, it has a prominent strategic position.  Lin Rui and others arrived at the already devastated city with fifty mercenaries in several troop trucks.

    The war has caused great damage. The surrounding farmland has been destroyed, and houses have collapsed. The originally spacious roads in the city are in a mess. There are many corpses lying on the road that have not been cleaned up, many burning buildings and serious injuries.  The damaged billboard looked as desolate as a doomsday scene under the gray-yellow sky.

    Members of the liberation organization and mercenaries in the city are busy building fortifications and preparing to resist the next stage of government army attack.  No one paid attention to the corpses, and in fact they had no time to deal with them.

    A severely injured black soldier with only one eye left huddled behind a concrete shelter on the street corner.  He was whispering something in the local dialect, maybe he was praying, maybe he was talking to himself.  No one understood, and no one knew if he was still sane.

    Lin Rui¡¯s heavy military boots stepped on the road covered with broken glass and collapsed buildings, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and burnt fire.  They found the headquarters of the liberation organization located in the city.

    There was a lot of chaos in the headquarters, and everyone was busy nervously.

    "Hey, what are you looking at?! Go to the north. We have to add more roadblocks there. The government troops will be coming soon!" A mercenary saw Lin Rui and others and walked over quickly and said, "Hey  , what about you, which team are you from?"

    Lin Rui looked at the Gurkha scimitar on the mercenary's waist, smiled slightly and said, "Are you from the Gurkha team? Where is Surya? Take me to see Surya."

    "Chief Surya just went to inspect the ambush point on the east side. If you have anything, you can talk to me." A black man with a weapon came over and said.  "I am a colonel of the armed forces of the Gansu National Liberation Organization. My name is"

    "Okay, Colonel!" Lin Rui waved his hand, "I can't remember your names. Our team is also an independent combat team. It is not in your combat order, so it is not under your command. But I need  The more detailed the enemy¡¯s intelligence, the better.¡±

    "Okay, I know who you are. The commander has told me you will come." The black colonel nodded, "What do you want to know?"

    "We need complete information about the government forces, where their camp is, who the commander is, and the basic situation of the personnel and armed forces." Jiang An looked at the black man and said, "How long have you been fighting with them?"

    "Probably since yesterday afternoon, it has been going on and off for a long time. However, the entire city is still under our control, and their offensive rhythm has become slower and slower. I estimate that they should stop when it continues into the evening  "Yes." The colonel replied, "Their main attack direction has been completely blocked by us. If they want to attack by force, they will pay a high price."

    While I was talking, there was a sudden explosion in the distance, and then a series of explosions that made the ground tremble.

    "It doesn't look like their offense is slowing down." Lin Rui shrugged.

    "Damn, it's those artillery pieces again." The colonel patted the computer dust on his head and said angrily, "These guys have been bombarding us because they have artillery. Even though their accuracy is poor, but  It also caused some damage. In fact, our casualties were killed and wounded by these artillery fires in the city."

    "Does the government army have artillery?" Lin Rui frowned.

    Jason thought for a while and said, "It sounds like a multiple rocket launcher, but it's not a large one. It's probably a 107 rocket launcher."

    Usually, people rank the AK-47 assault rifle, RPG-7 rocket launcher and 107mm rocket launcher as the three most famous conventional weapons in the world.  Although the US military's psychological warfare department has promoted through the media that these three weapons are "low technology, low price, and used by low-quality personnel".  But in the Vietnam War and the Iraq War, these equipment played a huge role.

    ??Tactically speaking, ak-47, rpg-7 and 107mm rocket launchers each have their own division of labor.  For targets beyond 300 meters, only the 107mm rocket launcher is a simple, practical, cheap and reliable weapon.  The front-line officers and soldiers of the US military who have fought against 107mm rocket launchers on the battlefield are generally in awe of this simple-looking Oriental rocket launcher.  In Afghanistan and Iraq, the US military pays great attention to collecting these three weapons.

    In fact, the 107mm rocket launcher is a highly user-friendly high-quality artillery, and various parameters have been repeatedly optimized.  First of all, the artillery rocket is designed to weigh 18.8 kilograms. One person can carry just one rocket, and it can withstand long-distance marches in complex terrain.  Not only is the total weight light, it can also be quickly disassembled and combined. The weight of a single component after disassembly does not exceed 30 kilograms.

    Adults can carry it on their backs.  Even if it is assembled, one person can??Can be pulled.

    And this kind of rocket launcher may be the most suitable heavy weapon for guerrilla warfare and special forces in the world.  The rocket launch tube is 0.9 meters long, supported by a tripod, has a total weight of 23 kilograms, a range of up to 8.5 kilometers, and is highly accurate and powerful.  A muscular special forces soldier can carry this single-barreled rocket launcher and two artillery shells to the launch point by himself, attack the enemy's key targets from a long distance, and then evacuate safely.

    So when they heard that the government troops on the opposite side had such weapons, Lin Rui and Jiang An immediately realized that there might be a problem.

    Lin Rui immediately asked, "Did they have such weapons when you fought against the government forces before?"

    "We have never encountered them before. We always thought that they had no artillery like us. So we suffered a lot this time." The colonel shook his head.

    "That's right, they should be from Morning Star Company." Lin Rui whispered to Dougson, "Can you judge their approximate scope?"

    "Judging from the range, the maximum range of this rocket launcher is 8.5 kilometers. These people should not be too far away." Jason replied.

    Lin Rui nodded and said, "Since we have encountered each other, we are going to pull out this tooth from Morningstar Company. Everyone, follow me."

    "Hey, wait, where are you going? Are you going to take down their artillery positions?" The colonel frowned, "But we still have to strengthen our defenses, and we can't spare anyone to cover you."

    "Boom!!!" First, there was a burst of messy artillery fire, which caused a nearby building to finally be unable to bear it and fall to the side, raising a lot of dust and smoke.

    Lin Rui shook his head, "I never said I wanted you to cover, Colonel. Take your people to build a good defense. My people will take down these rocket launchers as a meeting gift for you."

    "Hey, butoh, damn!" The colonel of the National Liberation Organization wanted to say something more, but Lin Rui had already waved his hand and led his men forward despite the gunfire.  The colonel was stunned with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
