Infantry and artillery coordination is the touchstone for testing an army. If you can't do this well, then don't call yourself a modern army.
Gao Yang didn't know what the standard of Yemen's regular army was, but judging from what he had seen so far, the Houthi armed forces were definitely an unqualified rabble, which puzzled him. It stands to reason that a large armed force with more than 100,000 people would No matter what, we shouldn't be so backward.
But it turns out that at least today, among the people Abdullah brought, there was not a single one who knew how to use artillery.
Rebrov looked at Gao Yang for help. Gao Yang nodded towards Rebrov and said: "Just treat it as a fixed target."
Shooting a fixed target is the easiest, but it is not that simple if you really want to hit it, because you always have to be prepared for the enemy's counterattack. Modern technology is developed, and artillery positioning radar was invented very early. Now it is not a particularly high-end weapon. , if the enemy really has this kind of radar, then firing means exposing the gun position.
Artillery positioning radar can also be called artillery ballistic radar. Once the artillery is fired here, after the radar detects the artillery shell, it can immediately use the ballistic trajectory of the artillery shell to deduce the position of the artillery. Then you only need to notify your own artillery, and it can be done within a few minutes. Counterattack enemy artillery positions.
Artillery positioning radar has almost become a standard feature of the modern army, so if Rebrov lets the artillery fire directly from the gun position near the camp, the temporary camp will most likely be exposed immediately, putting everyone in danger .
You can only move your position before firing. Fire the gun farther away and be ready to move at any time. Only in this way can you ensure safety.
Rebrov took out their drawings and asked Abdullah's people to look at them to confirm that the target to be hit was the target on the map. Rebrov immediately took out the walkie-talkie and loudly said: "Operation to No. B3 Preset position, completed."
After finishing speaking, Rebrov said to Gao Yang with excitement: "Boss, I'm going right now. Do you have any other instructions?"
"be safe."
"yes!"
Rebrov saluted, then hurried to the car that picked him up, and then quickly drove out dragging the cannon and the truck pulling the shells.
Abdullah looked at the leaving convoy, then at Gao Yang who stayed where he was, and suddenly said with a puzzled look on his face: "Why are you leaving?"
Gao Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "Go to the preset position. You can't fire here. What if your position is exposed?"
Abdullah nodded, and then suddenly said: "Then let's follow."
Gao Yang was stunned again and said: "Isn't it necessary? The terrain here is very high. We can see the situation in the city if we stay here. The weather conditions today are very good. If they fire, we can still see the city. There is no need to follow them to move positions."
Abdullah was silent for a moment, and finally said: "No, let's go and have a look."
Gao Yang didn¡¯t know what to see, but since Abdullah repeatedly asked, he had no choice but to accompany him.
Joseph's foot was injured and he could not follow Gao Yang, so Gao Yang could only call Peter and Grolev. Both of them were Russians. Since they were pretending to be Russian envoys, they always spoke Russian. It is good.
Gao Yang and his convoy kept up with the artillery convoy. After the group drove for four kilometers, they saw the artillery convoy leaving the dirt road and quickly unfolding on a flatter flat land.
The convoy led by Abdullah wanted to move forward and approach the artillery position. After Gao Yang stopped them, they stopped two hundred meters away from the artillery position.
"Don't turn off the car, and be ready to follow the artillery to move. No one should get close to the artillery position, so as not to disturb them."
After getting out of the car, Gao Yang told Abdullah several times, but Abdullah kept looking at the situation on the artillery position with special attention.
First, the artillerymen separated the cannon from the truck. Seven or eight people pushed a cannon and trotted while shouting slogans to push the cannon to the appropriate position. Then a group of people began to dig soil quickly to fix the cannon's hoe, and the thunder Broff, on the other hand, led three people to write and draw on a suggestion table.
Determining the orientation and calculating the distance to the target, everything is unfolding in an orderly manner. Because it is a preset position, some key data has been prepared in advance, which greatly reduces the workload of Rebrov and the others. .
However, the deployment of the D30 cannon is still a bit slow, because although its own wheels facilitate transportation and transfer, when the D30 is deployed, a bracket is needed to set up the cannon and pry the wheels up.Finally, the big frame is propped up, and then the bracket is lowered so that the artillery can sit on the unfolded big frame. The whole process is very cumbersome.
But the group of people led by Rebrov moved very quickly. Seven or eight people gathered around a cannon and completed the work in just three or four minutes. Then three people were using sledgehammers to pound the fixed piles into the soil. At that time, the main gunner was already adjusting the muzzle according to the instructions given by Rebrov.
In fact, it was also the first time that Gao Yang saw the artillerymen he had worked so hard to find operating in harmony.
Before these artillerymen came to Yemen, they had been fighting in Ukraine for a long time. It can be said that they spent every day under artillery fire. If you want to find artillerymen with more experience than them now, it is probably really difficult to find them.
Five minutes, it only took five minutes to complete all the work of deploying the artillery and calculating the ballistics. The loader had already prepared the shells and stuffed one into the barrel.
Rebrov said on the intercom: "Boss, do you really don't need artillery observers to report the damage effect? ??Just relying on calculations, it is very likely that the attack will be wrong! If the attack is wrong, there may be accidental damage, and the consequences will be serious!"
There is still room for regret before firing, but once fired, there is no turning back.
Gao Yang looked at Abdullah, and when he was about to ask Abdullah to confirm whether he was using this almost blind typing method and relying purely on calculation to launch the cannonballs, he saw Abdullah saying with a shocked look on his face: " How can it be so fast?"
The cannon was given to him by Abdullah. Of course he had seen what the D30 cannon looked like when used in the hands of his own family, so it was obvious that Rebrov's artillery shocked him.
"Do you want to fire? This is in a densely populated urban area, and there are no scouts. It is easy to cause accidental damage!"
Abdullah nodded without hesitation: "Fight!"
"beat!"
With Gao Yang¡¯s order, Rebrov also waved his hand and shouted: ¡°Fire at full speed, fire!¡±
With a bang, the first artillery shell came out, and the ground was shaken by the shock wave. Sand and dust suddenly appeared, and this was just the beginning. The close cooperation between the gunner and the assistant gunner, coupled with the extremely high efficiency of the loader, the four cannons The continuous sound started at an extremely fast speed.
