Battlefield Contractor

Chapter 4193: Fall short

The Moroccan army's tanks are very afraid of the anti-tank artillery hidden in the semi-basement.

Although the M1A1 is welded with 80mm steel plate on the basis of the M1 turret, the sandwich material is also modified, and the armor-piercing projectile reaches more than 400mm. The frontal armor can resist the rpg-7 rocket launcher, but it is still a bit weak for anti-tank guns.

Because the main purpose of anti-tank guns is to injure and destroy tanks, this type of gun makes a living on this. It has a long body, a large initial velocity, a long direct range, and a fast launch speed. The armor-piercing effect is strong, and the shells are all armor-piercing shells.

These armor-piercing projectiles use semi-combustible cartridges, the core is made of tungsten alloy material, the muzzle velocity is 1800 m/s, and the shooting distance is 2 kilometers, the armor-piercing thickness is 300-340 mm, and the armor-piercing thickness can reach 500 mm.

In fact, the M1A1 tank is not as good as the Americans boasted. The real good is the M1A1H and other subsequent improved models. The basic M1A1 tank is not particularly outstanding in terms of armor.

Being hit by an anti-tank gun within the effective range is not a joke, especially since the opponent's anti-tank gun is relatively low-level, and it can easily damage the track if it can't penetrate the armor. The Moroccan side immediately decided to avoid the firing range of the frontal anti-tank gun and use the maneuver advantage of the tank to detour to both sides.

This tactic is correct. They must use their own advantages to speed up their advancement. The front tanks detour to the sides, and subsequent tanks can continue to approach. In this way, the formation of tank operations can be expanded. The advantage of firepower can also be brought into play.

But Lin Rui and others are targeting this correct tactic. After the subsequent tanks approached forward, it was easier to reveal their command tank position. The observation team set up at the forefront of the battlefield is composed of snipers such as Viper Yelena.

They are proficient in lurking and hiding on the battlefield, but this time their functions have changed from snipers to artillery reconnaissance. After locking the position of the enemy's command tank, he reported the position of the enemy's army to the artillery units behind by radio almost immediately.

All artillery troops immediately aimed at the target according to the shooting Zhuyuan. This time, according to Lin Rui's numerology, they had to concentrate their firepower and fire quickly, dump all the ammunition in a short time, and then immediately withdraw.

Mortars of various calibers of the Western Sahara troops fired one after another. The firing of mortars and rocket launchers is not very accurate in itself. What is important is a fire coverage. Aim at a location, fire desperately and it's done.

Of course, their few 152 large-caliber artillery fired openly. The rear of the Moroccan troops was called a lively, explosions one after another, and no smoke was seen. The command tank was violently bumped, and the blast of air almost overturned the tank.

In just a few minutes, the two command tanks were hit several times in a row, although these shells were coincidences. But it was enough for the two command tanks. One of the command tanks was blasted off its tracks, and black smoke appeared all over the body. The members inside tried to crawl out, but they just took a look and then immediately retracted.

The other command tank was not so lucky. It was hit by an artillery shell on the turret, while the other side hit the front side near the chassis. The huge explosive impact directly caused the tank to roll over. A 152 shell hit directly on the chassis and exploded. Only then was it completely destroyed, this behemoth.

This sudden attack surprised the Moroccan army. The surviving command tank immediately evacuated backwards. But the shelling of Western Sahara has not ended.

"Damn it, ran a car. Xu entered the barrage and suppressed it." Eric shouted in the communication channel. Xujin Barrage is one of the artillery shooting types, a method of impact artillery support. Xujin's barrage shooting was formed in one area in front of our attacking army or on two areas at the same time, and as the attacking army advanced, it extended to the depth of the enemy's defenses to a dense barrage.

It was originally used to break through the enemy's pre-prepared defense, mainly when the enemy's defense constitutes a trench system, using Xujin barrage shooting. As a result, they were used to chase and escape command tanks.

The shells formed a series of forward barrage, wherever the command tank retreated, the shells covered it. Cannonballs bombarded the surrounding area wildly, and the crew of the commanding tank felt like he was on a boat in squally winds and waves, constantly bumping.

There was explosive smoke everywhere, and the horizon was unclear. The commanding tank also fired a defensive smoke screen as a cover. But this defensive smoke can only confuse enemy tanks at best. The artillery can't control that much, and they don't aim at shooting directly. As long as there is a direction from the Investigation Department, they can fight wherever they point.

In the end, although the M1130 Stryker armored command vehicle was not destroyed, it was also embarrassed by the bombing and smoked all over its body. Under the cover of several tanks, they hurriedly retreated beyond the range covered by artillery fire.

Lin Rui's adventurous action has achieved certain results, but he has not done everything. They only destroyed one M1130 Stryker armored command vehicle, while the other command vehicle successfully escaped.

After receiving the report from the reconnaissance unit ahead, Lin Rui whispered, "One ran, but as long as one command vehicle ran, their command system would not be destroyed."

"Then what to do? They are already approaching the central square, and soon they will enter the central square of the town." General Edgar Rondo said solemnly, "Do you have any alternatives?"

"Retreat to the southeast of the town, give up the central square, rely on the tall buildings in the southeast, and continue to **** the enemy..." Lin Rui checked his watch, turned to Sausage and asked, "How is Smara?"

"They have experienced two air strikes, but the main units have all withdrawn. The other artillery units have also begun to organize evacuation after the round of shelling. We have dragged the enemy here for six hours." Sausage replied.

"There is still a gap with our plan. I originally hoped mine could be delayed for about 8 to 10 hours before letting them occupy the central square." Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Let's go, General. Once they occupy After the central square, our position is not safe. We must also evacuate to this southeast. Relying on the buildings there, we will continue to deal with the enemy."

"Once the enemy has occupied the central square, it is equivalent to controlling half of the town. How can we deal with the enemy?" General Edgar Rondo hesitated.

"The method was devised. Just before this, I don't think the general had thought about it, relying on us and a limited number of artillery troops to block two armored regiments here." Lin Rui whispered.
