Chapter 553: Rocket Raid

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

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

The members of the liberation organization and mercenaries in the city are busy building fortifications, preparing to resist the next stage of the government army's attack. The corpses were ignored, and in fact they were too late to deal with them.

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

Lin Rui's heavy military boots stepped on the pavement covered with broken glass and collapsed buildings. The air was full of gunpowder and the smell of burning. They found the headquarters of the Liberation Organization located in the city.

There was a hustle and bustle in the headquarters, and everyone was busy working nervously.

"Hey, what are you looking at? Go to the north, we have to add more roadblocks there, the government army is coming soon." A mercenary saw Lin Rui and others, and hurriedly walked over, "Hey, say What about you, which team are you from?"

Lin Rui looked at the Gurkha machete on the waist of the mercenary, and smiled slightly, "Are you from the Gurkha team? Where is Surya, take me to see Surya."

"Surya Chief just went to inspect the ambush point on the east side. You can talk to me if you have anything." A black man with a weapon came over and said. "I'm a colonel of the armed forces of the Gan Guo National Liberation Organization, my name is..."

"Okay, Colonel," Lin Rui waved his hand, "I can't remember your names. This team of ours is also a high-level combat team and is not in your combat sequence, 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 told me you would come." The black colonel nodded. "What do you want to know?"

"We need complete information on the government forces, where are their camps, who are the commanders, and basic information about their personnel and armed forces." Jiangan looked at the black man, "How long have you been at war with them?"

"Probably since yesterday afternoon, the stop-and-go has been going on for a long time. But the whole city is still under our control, and their attack rhythm has become slower and slower. I guess it should stop until the evening. Yes." The colonel replied, "Their main attack direction has been completely blocked by us, and a strong attack will cost a lot."

While he was talking, there was a sudden explosion in the distance, followed by a series of explosions that made the ground tremble.

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

"Damn, those cannons again." The colonel patted the dust on the computer on his head, and said with some anger, "These guys have been bombarding us because they have guns. Even if they have poor aiming, but It also caused a certain loss. In fact, our casualties were killed and injured by these artillery fire in the city."

"The government army has 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 ak47 assault rifle, the rpg7 bazooka and the 107mm rocket launcher as the three most famous conventional weapons in the world. Although the US military's psychological warfare department has hyped the media to publicize these three weapons as "three low weapons used by low-tech, low-cost and low-quality personnel". But in the Vietnam War and the Iraq War, these equipment played a huge role.

Tactically, the 7 and 107mm rocket launchers have their own divisions of labor. For targets beyond 300 meters, only the 107mm rocket launcher is a simple, practical, cheap and reliable weapon. The U.S. front-line officers and soldiers who have played against 107mm rocket launchers on the battlefield are generally in awe of this simple-looking Oriental Bazooka. The U.S. military in Afghanistan and Iraq paid great attention to the collection of these three weapons.

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

Adults can walk on their backs. Even when assembled, it can be pulled by one person.

And this rocket launcher may be the world's most suitable heavy weapon for guerrilla warfare and special forces. The rocket launch tube is 0.9 meters long, supported by a tripod, with a total weight of 23 kilograms, a range of up to 8.5 kilometers, and high precision and power. A muscular special forces soldier can carry this single-barrel rocket launcher and two shells to the launch point alone, attack the enemy's key target from a long distance, and then withdraw safely.

So when they heard that the government army on the opposite side had this kind of weapon, Lin Rui and Jiangan 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 haven't met them before. We always thought they didn't have artillery like us. So we suffered a lot this time." The colonel shook his head and said.

"That's right, it should be someone from Morningstar Company." Lin Rui whispered to Dao Jason and asked if he could judge their approximate range. "

"In terms of 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 met, let's pull out this tooth from Morningstar and follow me."

"Hey, wait, where are you going? Are you going to take down their artillery positions?" the colonel frowned. "But we have to strengthen the fortifications, and we can't get anyone to cover you."

"Boom" was a messy burst of artillery fire, and a nearby building finally couldn't bear it and fell to one side, raising a lot of dust and smoke.

Lin Rui shook his head, "I didn't say that I wanted you to cover, Colonel. Take your people to build a good defense. My people will go and remove these rocket launchers as a gift for you."

"Hey, but... oh, damn." The Colonel of the National Liberation Organization wanted to say something else, but Lin Rui had already waved his men and rushed forward under the fire. The colonel was stunned with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
