Battlefield Contractor

Chapter 5045: Gunfire

The battle just stopped, Lin Rui held the communicator in his hand and gestured to the actuary Jiang An, "Follow me to the frontline observation post."

The actuary nodded, and the two of them immediately arrived at the observation post on the ground. This is a very good place to observe, and you can still see smoke from the anti-tank trenches from a distance.

"Looking at the battle is not small?" Lin Rui whispered while holding up his binoculars, "This time it's just a tentative attack. The real pressure is behind."

"Yeah, I don't know if those guys on the ground can hold it." The actuary said in a low voice.

Lin Rui held up the telescope, observing the changes on the ground. A large number of Jihadist Alliance soldiers have begun to retreat, and occasionally a few soldiers can be seen running in panic.

Lin Rui put down the binoculars and directed the actuaries to the coast, "inform the troops to prepare to defend against enemy shelling and enter the anti-artillery bunker.

This round of attacks was frustrated. If the enemy rectifies a little bit, it will definitely launch an artillery attack, using artillery as the forerunner to launch an impact on our army's position. "

"Understood." The actuary nodded Jiangan.

"The defensive position where the second battalion is located is the only way for the enemy to advance to us. The position where the second battalion is located is relatively high and close to the road. It cannot pass without controlling the highland road.

Therefore, their pressure should be the greatest. Anti-tank trenches can only work temporarily, and it is impossible to keep the enemy out forever. They must be strengthened and supplemented. "Lin Rui held up the telescope. He observed in a low voice.

"The second battalion and the fourth battalion have set up two joint defense lines, which are condescending. The enemy is completely under our firepower.

However, due to our current shortage of equipment and ammunition, we have not deployed traditional defense circular fortifications. It is a stepped defense, combining light and heavy.

We have placed machine guns and infantry support weapons on the first line in order to exert the power of limited heavy firearms.

But on the first line, we only deploy a small portion of our forces, and the remaining forces are hidden in the second line when it is crucial to replenish our vitality and attack the enemy.

In addition, we are still asking the soldiers to dig fortifications. "The actuary replied Jiangshi.

"You are more experienced than I am in this respect, and you are always more thoughtful than I thought." Lin Rui nodded, "Added, I require each soldier to dig at least two bunkers.

We must fully consider the situation where the bunker is damaged after the enemy’s shelling and cannot be repaired in time. "

"I've taken this into consideration." The actuary nodded Jiangan. "In addition, I have strengthened the deployment of a reserve team there, which can be topped at any time in times of crisis. The reserve team has only one task, and that is to assist the second and fourth battalions."

Lin Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "With you here, I think I should take up arms to fight, and leave this to you. Otherwise, I feel a little redundant here."

The actuary shook his head and said, "You can't say that. You are the combat commander, and I'm just a staff member at best. This battle will probably be very difficult, and we cannot afford to lose the commander.

So before the last minute, you have to stay in the headquarters.

When it's really the last juncture, I will take the gun with you. "

Lin Rui nodded, "Thank you."

"Everyone is a brother of life and death, and I'll see you if you say thank you." The actuary smiled.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, on the battlefield that had been silent for a while, I remembered the fierce artillery fire again.

This time, under the cover of artillery fire, terrorists from the Jihadist Alliance launched an attack on the outer positions.

The first attack was a section of the second battalion's eighth company. The soldiers of the local alliance hid in the individual bunker against shelling, and everyone was ashamed.

To be honest, when they were asked to dig these bunkers. Soldiers of many local alliances are not willing to do it at all. They don't understand why they are fighting, and they have to dig holes with shovels.

What's more, here is sandy land and salt marsh soil, and the defensive offensive is not so easy to dig. It was completely under the strict orders of Lin Rui and the others, and had to do it.

But after the shelling was over, they discovered that these bunkers were the last to save their lives.

The terrorists of the Jihadist League bypassed the direction of the anti-tank trench and attacked the position where the second battalion was located.

Because the equipment and ammunition are relatively tight, and the training level of the armed forces in these places is limited, Lin Rui requested that the opponent be placed 30 meters away before firing violently.

The heavy firepower deployed in advance formed a cross fire net. Inflict serious damage on the opponent and force them to retreat.

Lin Rui went back and forth between the observation post and the command post. While in the observation post, he found that the enemy's key attack positions were all at the position of the Eighth Company.

After careful observation, he found that the position of that position was at the junction with the fourth camp position.

The enemy chose this position as a breakthrough, not only easy to approach the position, but also can use the sand dunes on both sides to form a shooting blind spot for the local coalition forces.

The dune on one side is a natural shelter for the retreat camp.

Lin Rui immediately called for sausage and handed him the telescope in his hand.

"What's wrong, boss?" Sausage was a little dazed.

"Did you see that position? The sand dunes over there. If the battle persists until tonight, the outer positions of the second camp have not been taken down.

I want you to take advantage of the darkness and lead people to bury a lot of explosives and mines over there. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"You mean, when they attack again, we will give them a surprise attack?" Sausage understood.

"Smart. You showed me the correct position. Don't make a mistake when you move at night." Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder.

After the enemy withdrew, more artillery fire was concentrated on this position. But still little effect.

The anti-cannon bunkers in the trenches played a big role. But even so, there are still many local Union soldiers who have been shocked to their eardrums.

An veteran patted the recruit's head angrily, "Open your mouth during the shelling, you know? You have to do that if you don't want to be injured. Even if there is more sand, you can just throw it out after the bombing."

The recruit was ignorant and nodded in a daze.

In fact, what this veteran said is very reasonable. He had been an artillery before.

During shelling, the artillery usually opens their mouths to balance the air pressure inside and outside the mouth. Because when the gun is ejected from the chamber, the muzzle will emit a lot of gunpowder gas. It will have a great impact on the people next to the artillery, just like a shock wave from an explosion.

If you do not open your mouth, it will cause an imbalance in the pressure inside and outside the eardrum. Severe cases will cause perforation of the tympanic membrane.

The explosion of the shells is actually the same principle. In addition to the shrapnel damage, the other damage of the shells is the explosive shock wave.

If it really hits it head-on, it will be useless. Even if he didn't have a wound, he would be shaken to death.

But if you are far away and in the bunker, the impact of the impact will of course be much smaller. Opening your mouth can also prevent the eardrum from being damaged.
