A Mercenary’s War
Chapter 389: Unbeatable jungle battle
Jungle warfare is definitely the most troublesome type of battle in the history of human war.
Everyone knows that the casualties of urban operations are high, but the casualties of jungle operations are no less than those of urban operations. The large-scale jungle operations in human history are much less than those of urban operations, but every jungle operation is accompanied by a high casualty rate .
Militaryly, jungle warfare usually refers to battles that take place in tropical forests. The biggest problem with jungle warfare is that forests provide unmatched concealment for both warring parties.
Fighting in the jungle, the most important factor in determining victory or defeat is the regional factor. Whether you are absolutely familiar with the local environment determines the success or failure of the battle. People who are particularly familiar with the local terrain and vegetation, climate, and biology, even if they have only the most basic The weapons will also take the absolute upper hand, and if you do n’t know anything about these, the rainforest itself will become the biggest obstacle.
High humidity and high heat, heavy rainfall, are harsh tests for people and equipment, and the extremely limited field of view allows outstanding soldiers in other environments to be at a loss here. Imagine that Gao Yang is an excellent precision shooter. He could have solved the enemy hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters away, but his long-distance advantage was completely nullified when the rain forest had no vision at all.
The Satan Mercenary Corps has a night vision device, so launching night warfare is their most common choice, but this is useful in any environment other than the rain forest, which is covered by trees and dense vegetation, whether it is The low-light night vision device is still a thermal imaging night vision device, which is useless, and still can't look far.
Don't want to use heavy weapons in the jungle. Tank artillery can't get in. The aircraft could not see the target even if it threw a bomb. No matter what kind of heavy weapon, precision strike is not expected, playing carpet-cover bombing is almost the same, and the impact of jungle environment on combat is not limited to distance, there is also the problem of the effect of firearms, trees will block bullets, and Absorb explosion shock waves and debris.
The last two large-scale jungle battles, one was the Vietnam War fought by the US military. One was Hua Xia ’s Vietnam War. As a result, everyone knew that the US military paid a heavy price in the jungles of Vietnam. They had the most advanced weapons in the air, but they had no choice but to take the guerrillas of North Vietnam. However, Hua Xia, although winning, also paid Heavy casualties.
For the generals of China and the US military, the headache for them is not the Vietnamese army, but the boundless jungle. Without the jungle, the Vietnamese have long been smashed. But with the jungle, Vietnamese soldiers have become monkeys that can jump up and down.
During the Vietnam War, the US military used Agent Orange. Agent Orange was a deciduous agent used to deal with trees instead of humans. In China ’s self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, in order to deal with the Vietnamese army hidden in thick trees For the firepower point, the method used is a large-scale dense rocket artillery bombardment. After the rocket waves explode the vegetation, then use the barrel guns to end the firepower points of the Vietnamese army.
The great powers such as the United States and Huaxia both feel intractable when they fight jungle wars, let alone those small powers and weak powers. Colombia ’s armed forces have been unable to fight for decades, not because the armed forces can hide in the jungle as long as the fighting is unfavorable. In the jungle, Colombia ’s armed forces have been annihilated numerous times.
The thought of fighting jungle wars, Gao Yang, really feels a headache. The Satan mercenary regiment has the advantages of equipment and skills, but in the jungle, their advantage is weakened to the lowest point, and the enemy is undoubtedly familiar with the rain forest. With this in mind, they are completely at a disadvantage, and once the enemy has the advantage in number and firepower, the outcome of the battle may be very, very miserable.
Gao Yang did not experience jungle wars, but he knew the terrible jungle wars, and after Gao Yang asked his question, Cui Bo said with a frown: "Yeah, when I got into the jungle, I would be useless."
Gao Yang sighed and said, "Have anyone ever fought in the jungle?"
Grolev laughed bitterly: "Well, jungle warfare, I have fought in the Congolese rainforest. I have to say that jungle warfare is really difficult to fight, but fortunately, I am facing a Congolese rebellion. Army, their combat effectiveness is very low, and they cannot fully exploit the advantages of being familiar with the jungle, but in spite of this, we still paid a great price. "
After Tom hesitated for a while, he whispered, "I used to fight in the forest, but it wasn't a rainforest, so I can't say that I am familiar with jungle warfare, but I still know a little bit about fighting in the forest. At least I know what to do. Shooting in the forest. "
Gao Yang was very interested and said, "Oh? Come and listen, did you ever fight in the forest there?"
Tommy said in a deep voice: "In 1999, during the Kosovo War, in order to avoid NATO bombing, Yugoslavia had deployed a large number of troops in the forest. At that time, as a member of the civilian armed guerrillas, I also stayed in the forest. For a while, when fighting against the Albanians, they often launched battles from the forest and often fired guns in the forest. "
Gao Yang was very pleased and said: "Very good, very good, although not a rainforest, but at least you have some experience."
Bruce said in a deep voice: "Colombians are not the fools of Congo. They are all experts in jungle warfare, big dogs. How much do you know about jungle warfare?"
After pondering for a moment, Grolev whispered: "I can't be called an expert, but I understand that my time in Congo is actually not very short, so I also have some experience, but with those who live in the jungle. Indigenous people think that it is far worse than that, and the environment of Congo rainforest and Amazon rainforest is not the same. "
Gao Yang shrugged and said, "Look, the problem is here. I would rather go to the Arctic to fight instead of walking in the Amazon rainforest. Don't forget, the environment of the Amazon rainforest is worse than that of Congo, so, You can think carefully about whether to go to Colombia. "
Frye laughed: "There is nothing to consider, no matter how he is there, Satan is not afraid."
Grolev said: "Although the rainforest combat is really disgusting, but as long as we are prepared, I think it is still possible to go."
Bruce also laughed: "I know that jungle warfare is difficult, but I want to get the job done even more. The British said that if you can fight in the jungle, you can fight in any corner of the world. I want to try it in the jungle. . "
The attitude of several people remained the same, still determined to go to Colombia, Gao Yang nodded and said: "Very good, then we are sure to go to Colombia, Tommy, do you have any ideas?"
Tommy shook his head and said, "You are the leader, you can go if you say, you can't if you don't, I don't have any personal opinion. In addition, if I have a bonus to participate in the battle, I look forward to this time Trip to Colombia. "
Gao Yang clapped his hands and said: "Okay, now that we have reached an agreement, then we have to consider the issue of equipment. Our current equipment is definitely not suitable for jungle warfare. Therefore, we have to change the face of the game as a newcomer. , Tommy, you will get a complete set of equipment, communication equipment and clothing are universal, but the weapon is designated by you personally, now talk about your requirements. "
Tommy said without hesitation: "My position must be a gunner first, so I need a mortar, as long as it is a barrel, if you can choose, can you give me a Chinese 8960 mm Mortar? This kind of gun is very light weight. I can carry it by myself. Although the barrel is slightly longer, the maximum range can reach 2700 meters. The advantage of the increased range is that I can let two shells land at the same time. The third Although there will be a slight time difference, the time difference can be guaranteed within half a second.
In addition, I also want the 93-type 60mm long-range mortar. The barrel of this gun is a bit long, but the weight is acceptable, and the range can reach nearly 5,600 meters. When necessary, I can get the need. The maximum range, and the accuracy is not as bad as a rocket, but the biggest problem for me is that I am a little difficult to operate in one person. Of course, I am referring to the case of using only one barrel. "
Gao Yang immediately said: "Do you only need these two mortars? This is of course no problem, are there any other needs? Also, I want to know that your choice is to be used in the jungle battle this time ~ www.wuxiaspot .com ~ Or will it be used under normal circumstances in the future? "
Tommy thought for a moment and said, "There is nothing else. The other guns are too heavy. As for the one I want to use this time, I think I only need the 8-9 and 63. The length of the 89 barrel is 830 mm. The 63 type It ’s only 550 millimeters. Compared to it, the 63 type is more convenient, but the long range of 89 also means greater instantaneous fire density for me. So, when it ’s unclear what kind of situation we are facing, I ca n’t To make accurate judgments, the best choice is to arrive in Colombia and make the best decision after understanding the situation to be faced. "
Gao Yang is very satisfied with Tommy's rigorous attitude. It is a good habit to choose different weapons in different situations. As for mortars, which are cheap and sufficient, Tommy can do whatever he wants, even if he fights. It ’s okay to throw a mortar. The 63-type mortar is only a few hundred dollars. As a one-time weapon, you do n’t have to worry about throwing out the shells.
Gao Yang looked at Wuli Yangke and said: "Your business is at your door. What does Tommy want is not a problem for you?"
Uliyenko laughed: "Of course, I don't need to prepare it for you personally. After you arrive in Colombia, you will pick all kinds of mortars with you. Southern Industry exports a lot of 60mm mortars to Africa and South America. There are a lot of guns, 9 and 93. As for the 63 type, it is everywhere. I will let my colleagues prepare it for you. "(Unfinished ...)
ps: Thank you San_lee001 brothers and Night Bat 007 brothers for their great rewards, thank you very much.
In addition, in order to avoid the harmonious words that cannot be displayed, we can only use the strange way of writing "9". Well, everyone knows what the "9" is.
