Chapter 719 Cornet
Although the tank was not obviously traumatized from the outside, it was certain of its driving state and trajectory at this moment. The explosion just now had already caused severe damage to the people in the car. I dare not say that it was dead, but at least it had lost consciousness.
The entire convoy immediately stopped, and the major officer named Connor, who was in charge of command, immediately contacted the lanes: "Be careful! Be careful."
While he was stabilizing the entire team, the person who had been observing on the east side of the road signaled to the people around him: "Do it, hurry up. Use the rpg-29 rocket to kill those armored vehicles first. Hurry up."
With his order, the wooden boards covering the tunnel were lifted up one after another. Then the people in the tunnel stepped on the wooden box used to cushion the foot, and with the help of their companions, they resisted the rpg-29, which was much longer than rpg-7, on their shoulders.
"Aim! Aim!" The person in charge continued to observe with a telescope while shouting: "Prepare to launch! You can launch at any time!"
At this moment, a tank that was guarding the east side discovered the situation here. So he immediately contacted: "East side! Major, our east side. There are people there and some people are moving there."
After hearing someone's report, Connor immediately looked to the east, but as he looked over, a rocket flew out in the direction of their convoy.
"Rocket! Rocket!" Connor said again after shouting twice: "Retaliate. Restart immediately. On the east side, the distance is about 200 to 300 meters." Before he finished speaking, after the first rocket flew out, the second, third, and fourth. The rocket flew out one after another, and then the explosion sounded one after another.
The first rocket hit an m2 armored vehicle near the middle of the convoy and then exploded. The second and third shots were both hit on the roadbed and did not directly hit the target. The fourth shot hit the side of an m1a1 tank.
Rpg-29 naturally had no chance to destroy the m1a1 main battle tank. It just made the inside of the tank vibrate violently, causing the people inside to see that there was no other reaction. But the m2 armored vehicle was different. After being hit, the armored vehicle seemed to be directly opened, and a big hole was blown open on the side of the vehicle body. Under such a heavy blow, the people inside naturally died.
"All armored vehicles leave the road and retreat to the west. Hurry!" Connor shouted, his tank also started to counterattack. The tank lowered its turret and aimed slightly, then fired at the place where the rocket had just been fired.
A shell hit the east side of their tunnel, which was behind these people. Although it did not directly cause damage, the violent vibration caused by the explosion still made the people in the tunnel unable to stand firm. Some people were even shocked and their eyes turned black.
"Use the short number given to us by the Russians! Hurry up! Hurry up!" The person in charge of the command in the tunnel said loudly while observing. He was not satisfied with the first wave of attacks from his own group of people. According to the plan, they first had to attack the armored vehicles that were easy to attack when the convoy stopped, and try to cause damage to them as much as possible. Although this would lead to the loss of the best opportunity to attack the m1a1 tank, it could cause the greatest casualties to this group of Americans. As long as there were major casualties, the time for the Americans to arrive in Alsabad was delayed to the maximum extent.
So at this moment, after the m1a1s opened fire, militants in the tunnel on the east side took out the Russian-made "short" anti-tank missiles specially used to deal with tanks.
I saw someone quickly put the brackets that had been assembled before, and at the same time someone started to load them into the launcher. One of the biggest advantages of the "short number" is that it is simple and fast operation, so soon this anti-tank missile entered the step of aiming and preparing for launch.
"You can shoot at any time!" The person in charge of the command continued to observe and said: "Let them shoot immediately. In addition, tell Said that their tanks are eight, not one platoon, but eight tanks and two platoons!"
As he spoke, four of the eight tanks of the opponent came to a volley. Their shooting target was targeting the location of the tank that had just fired its first gun. The explosion caused air waves and violent vibrations to cause the militants who had previously been preparing to launch anti-tank missiles to fall directly from the wooden box. However, a short corporation was still launched and flew directly towards an m1a1 tank.
"Anti-tank missile! Pay attention!" someone shouted during the communication, and then an explosion came.
"Car No. 4, car No. 4 was shot." Someone reported, and while this person was shouting, someone warned: "Anti-tank missile! Pay attention!"
Connor immediately looked to the east side again, and saw a rocket flying out again near the location where he had just been bombarded. Then he flew directly towards the rear of his car and exploded behind him in a blink of an eye.
"Car No. 7! Car No. 7 was shot!" While someone reported, someone said: "Car No. 4 cannot move and is seriously damaged, but Strong and the others are still alive, they are still alive."
"Counterattack! Counterattack! Adjust your shooting position. They were a little closer to our bounce just now!" With Connor's shout, several other tanks fired again, but the shooting location was the same as before, and they failed to adjust in time. Just as they fired, rockets were shot over.
In the town, Said, who was fighting on the south side of the town, frowned when he heard his subordinates report that the actual number of tanks was eight. This was very bad news for him. At this moment, the only one who could really pose a great threat to the main battle tanks of the m1a1 was the Russian "short coupe", but this thing could not destroy m1a1 every time. Not only did it hit, but it would have to be lucky. More importantly, there were not many anti-tank missiles. If the attack on the road could not destroy enough tanks, it would cause great trouble to his battle in the town. Even though he was prepared to deal with the most difficult situation, because of the previous information of the captive, the current situation still made him feel that it was not very good.
"Tell the first team and let them think of attracting the group to the east." Said said, "Let the second team not rush to act, wait. Tell them to change their strategy, first use anti-tank missiles to kill the opponent's main battle tanks as much as possible."
