    ¡°We¡¯re almost there, the building at the foot of the mountain.¡± Sausage Hui reported.

    Lin Rui took a telescope and observed it, then nodded, "It is almost entirely a concrete structure on the outside, and there are high walls dividing it inside. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a fortress."

    "We have RPG rocket launchers and recoilless rifles. It's easy to open a hole if you really want to." Scarface whispered.  "I'm just a little strange. They should have discovered us, so why didn't they take any action? Isn't it a little strange that they still remained quiet under such circumstances?"

    "I think so too. In fact, there are guards on duty on the high tower over there at the labor camp. At such a height, they should have discovered our convoy very early." Sergey whispered.  "Maybe they want to wait for us to make a move first. Boss, would you like to mount the gun mount and give it to them?"

    "Since they are coming, give them a hard time. Bring over that big American product!" Lin Rui waved.

    The big American product he is talking about is the K6 mortar equipped by the US military.  Because the main equipment of the US military is American mortars, many people think it is.  But in fact, this gun is produced in Israel, and its official name in the Israeli military should be the Soldam K6 mortar.

    This is a 120mm mortar with a combat weight of 144.7 kg, a marching weight of 326.82 kg, and an effective range of 201 to 7239 meters.  This cannon was originally captured in Western Sahara.  The US military should have provided it to the joint anti-terrorism force, but the joint anti-terrorism force was captured by terrorists.

    And when Lin Rui and others made a surprise attack on the terrorist base camp, they seized it from the terrorists again.

    Because mercenaries rarely use such large-caliber heavy mortars, they usually use light mortars with a caliber of less than 100 mm.  Therefore, this cannon became a very interesting trophy, and it was not used at all in ordinary small-scale conflicts.

    This time it is not purely about showing off force, but about using powerful weapons to cause psychological pressure on the enemy.  So Lin Rui had to take out the big stuff as soon as he opened his mouth.  After hearing this, several mercenaries who were responsible for operating the artillery suddenly became excited. They were going to do something big.

    "You guys get out of the way, you and I will stay here to help." Kuai Ma went into battle personally and arranged for a few mercenaries to set up the 120mm mortar.  He personally took out the main ammunition for the 120mm mortar from the packaging tube.

    In general mortars, the shell is carefully loaded from the muzzle, and then let go to let it fall along the barrel. When the primer of the shell hits the firing pin at the bottom of the barrel, it will be fired.  However, due to the large muzzle shock wave, such 120mm mortars are usually fired by pull-fire, which can better protect the gun crew members.

    The white markings on the barrel are for easy aiming.  But if you want to hit accurately, you still need an aiming hand with certain experience.  Since the mortar is a deflection gun, its aiming is very special. The left and right directions are easy to determine, mainly the distance direction. Generally, the distance division is determined based on the deflection characteristics of the gun, which is an angle disk. How many meters does each scale represent?  .  Each cannon has settings when it leaves the factory and needs to be adjusted frequently.

    When shooting, set and fine-tune the left and right directions, and then adjust the muzzle to the distance mark according to the target distance, which is considered to be aimed.  Large-caliber mortars can also change the projectile propellant to modify the launch distance. This calculation is slightly more complicated.  Generally, it takes several more shots to be fired and gradually adjusted before the final hit is achieved.

    But this time they are mainly used for deterrence, so it doesn¡¯t really matter whether they hit accurately or not, as long as they are powerful and can scare the opponent.

    Because there was no distance between them and the labor camp, they used line-up observation shooting. Simply put, they directly pointed the sight on the gun at the target, calculated the scale according to the target distance, and added the air temperature, chemical temperature, wind direction, and wind speed.  , height difference and other factors, you can shoot.

    After completing the aiming, Kuai Ma waved for two mercenaries to come over and stand on the mortar plate.  The mortar relies on the huge seat plate under the barrel to transmit the recoil force to the ground. In this way, the mortar does not have a complicated anti-recoil device and is very light.  The ideal situation is of course that the seat plate is completely in contact with the ground, but digging a pit for the seat plate is obviously too stupid. The recoil of the first few shells is usually used to smash the seat plate into the ground.

    In order to ensure that the seat plate will not shift, one or two soldiers will stand on top of the seat plate. When the gun is fired, the recoil will smash the seat plate into the ground.  The moment the 120mm mortar fired, the two artillerymen were shaken into the air.

    This shot was quite powerful, and it landed directly on the outside of the labor camp wall.  The huge explosion caused a hole in the wall.

    "Okay, this is really a fortress. A wall that can't even be blown down by a 120-meter mortar?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "The impact point is not close enough and the hit is not accurate. The exploding shrapnel cannot directly destroy the wall, and the effect of the shock wave on the curved wall is not obvious. However, with this cannon as the base, we can do a little bitThere will be no problem after the adjustment.  Kuai Ma nodded.

    "Don't rush yet, the ammunition of the big goods is limited, so use it sparingly." Lin Rui smiled, "Let's see how they react?"

    "It seems like someone has stepped onto the wall." Yelena held the binoculars.

    "Are they planning to talk to us and surrender directly?" Sergey asked.

    "Wait, something is wrong. These people don't seem to be guards from the labor camp. They wear uniforms and have numbers on the back. They are prisoners of the labor camp." Jabbad, who hurriedly came to join Lin Rui, said loudly, "  Don't fire, the walls are full of labor camp prisoners."

    Lin Rui finally looked through the binoculars, and sure enough, the people standing on the wall opposite were all prisoners.  They all wore numbered red prison uniforms and stood on the wall of the labor camp.

    At this time, the huge loudspeaker of the labor camp began to shout to Lin Rui and others, "All the resistance forces on the other side, listen up. I am the person in charge of this labor camp, Gerald Nelson. I want you to stop attacking and leave.  Here. I know why you're here, but as long as I'm here, this won't happen."

    "Gerald Nelson. A member of the Supervisory Committee under the Secret Society, who is responsible for the management of labor camps." Jabbad whispered, "He is a loyal dog of the Secret Society and has killed many Anmor people.  , most of them are prisoners who were forced to work in this camp.¡±

    "Turn the muzzle and fire another shot in that direction. Let's see how long they can survive." Lin Rui turned around and said.

    "Understood." Kuai Ma and several other mercenaries immediately began to drill the cannon.

    "You can't fight." Jabad stopped them. "We are here to rescue the Anmor soldiers trapped inside. If you continue to fire, they will massacre the prisoners inside. They can do this kind of thing, I  I have seen a similar incident more than once.¡±
