Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 459 Capture of Tespur
Fierce battles also took place at the intersection controlled by He Fan. The smoke from the explosion engulfed all enemy and enemy units in the adjacent block. The Indian troops were inexperienced and began to shoot at nearby tanks, including their own T72.He Fan came prepared, and calmly fired at the nearby buildings one by one according to the approximate location in his memory to create new chaos.If it weren't for his thermal imager not working very well, he could have knocked out a few more enemy tanks in this troubled battle.

Drones carrying laser-guided bombs in the air approached the battlefield secretly, and they will take on part of the anti-tank tasks; with a laser pointer.As a digital combat force, the Snow Wolf may not have powerful weapons for attacking fortifications, but it cannot live without the equipment integrated into the entire system-indicators and data links.This determines that its combat power can be extended indefinitely, and if necessary, it can even mobilize missiles thousands of miles away, and now they have anti-tank firepower falling from the sky.

As expected, the hidden Indian air defense team has been searching the sky, and after discovering the drones, they appeared one after another, ready to intercept them on the top of the floor.

Throughout the morning, these teams quickly grew from rookies who only knew the shooting steps to experts in countering drones and helicopters, and figured out a lot of counterattack skills. Sensors cannot function in cities full of buildings, so the response is very slow; and low-speed drones are even more clumsy. They can only sense radar and are completely defenseless against infrared missiles.Of course, the confrontation skills on the battlefield are always rising alternately. The snow wolf has mastered the enemy's means through observation. The Indian anti-aircraft missile troops are in teams of two, and they always appear on the commanding heights in the open. Now the snow wolf snipers, A lesson is about to be taught to these Indian soldiers.

According to Wang Tiechuan's order, four sniper teams have already occupied the top ruins of the Tespur Gendarmerie Command Building. Although this building has only ten floors, in this city with a low average floor, it has the advantage of being able to see all the mountains. .The building was repeatedly attacked by aerial bombs before, and the Indians could only give up. Now it is the turn of Wang Tiechuan's team to take control.

The snipers set up ambushes on the top of the still-burning tall building, keeping an eye on the next-level commanding heights nearby.This is a competition between the air defense team and the snipers aiming quickly. Of course, the snow wolf has the advantage in height and comes prepared.

On the top of the office building of the Tespur Power Plant, two Indian soldiers first appeared.They squatted on the roof of the building calmly, waiting quietly. The assistant shooter used binoculars to observe the approaching black spots in the sky from time to time. They already knew that the Chinese drones had to get very close to avoid the shelter and shadows of the rooms on the building. From the outside, the bomb seems to have to fly vertically above the target. This is different from the field, and it is a feature that must be used.Indian soldiers calculated the wingspan size of the target in their minds, and silently carried out visual distance measurement; the shooting of shoulder-launched missiles seemed simple, but the time for the seeker to cool down was fleeting. In terms of the best precise attack timing, it is a very necessary basic skill.

The snow wolf snipers have higher requirements for distance measurement. Of course, they can use the laser range finder which is not easy to be detected by the opponent. With this equipment, the assistant shooter accurately measured the distance as 944 meters. This is an unprecedented challenge. .The 7.62mm sniper rifle of the deputy shooter is relatively reluctant at such a distance, and can only put most of its hopes on the 12.7mm large-caliber anti-material weapon.

The shooter silently calculated the depression angle and windage, and adjusted the sight scale.He aimed the crosshairs at the target's chest, but the enemy nearly a kilometer away was facing him sideways, looking very small, obviously he had to wait.At this time, the enemy had been building a pergola to observe the approaching drones. He stood up, carried the missile to his shoulder, and concentrated on completing the attack, turning a deaf ear to the fierce exchange of fire around him.

The game of praying mantis catching cicada is still deadlocked.Snow Wolf's marksman waited patiently for the target to change.The Indian soldiers began to turn in place to track the drones in the sky.He shot down 2 drones in one morning, so it is clear that after a while, the heat source lock signal in the headset will sound, and this stage is only a few seconds.Slowly he turned about 60? , exposing the entire back.

With the loud gunshot and the violent retreat of the barrel, the bullet left the chamber.The shooter stuck his eyes on the scope, and waited for a while to confirm that the target fell to the ground as if he had been hit hard. Before this, the distance when he hit the farthest target in actual combat was only half of this distance .

Another Indian soldier immediately realized what was going on. He didn't pick up the missile on the ground, turned around and fled. The deputy shooter fired supplementary shots with a sniper rifle. Be aware of your place.

However, due to the fragmentation of the battlefield and the lack of communication, the small Indian troops almost fought independently. This made the snow wolf teams occupying the commanding heights not change positions. With this precise shot, India's anti-aircraft firepower immediately misfired.

After several rounds of shooting, only one Indian team was 2 kilometers away, relying on a mistake by the snow wolf, launched a missile and killed a drone, while the rest of the teams at a closer distance failed to launch successfully.The Indian Army appears to have stockpiled a large number of MANPADS at Tespur.But when the air defense team is dispatched again, it is necessary to weigh the risk of rashly appearing in the open.

He Fan's tank inserted horizontally into the formation of the Indian Army, which really disrupted its retreat steps, and the enemy was thrown into chaos.The Indian troops, who were fighting desperately in front, realized from the sound of guns and guns behind them that the rear road was in danger of being cut off, and chaos began to appear. The chaos quickly infected most of the troops like a plague, and the courage to resist desperately was immediately cut off by the retreat route. Instead of collective panic, soldiers dropped their weapons and fled backwards.The electronic interference imposed over the city has prevented effective communication between Indian troops, and the chaotic situation is doomed to become a success or failure.

Lin Huaisheng has been hunched over in the command car, anxiously waiting for the information ahead. He actually has no idea about his reckless attack on He Fan, and he is regretting it a little.Soon the good news came from the front. The enemy was retreating from all contacted blocks. At present, the forward firepower had extended to the vicinity of He.

"His grandma's, can He Fan still get in touch?"

"Contacted, but no answer, he's returning fire with a machine gun. The enemy is very close."

The smoke on the ground dissipated slightly, and at this moment it can be seen from the air that two tanks are fighting against the streets of the city center in the north-south direction, with their muzzles pointing in different directions.Among them, the situation of No. 2 is particularly dangerous. Its top machine gun and turret side-by-side machine gun are firing at the same time, shooting and killing the Indian infantry who are trying to escape from the surrounding area. You can see the Indian infantry lying behind the obstacle more than ten meters away. , with an RPG rocket launcher.Behind the ruins on the other side, a T08 was slowly driving towards the wall, and an encounter was about to start.Lin Huaisheng saw it, but he couldn't do anything about it.

After turning the corner, T72 rushed up to He Fan.The two sides saw their opponents at the same time through the smoke, and then began to turn their muzzles to aim at each other. There was no need to aim at such a distance. Whoever could fire even 0.1 seconds earlier would win.

Wang Tiechuan was 300 meters away. When he saw this situation, he immediately tapped the helmet of the soldier beside him, signaling to change the position of the laser irradiation. It's only 08 meters away from He Fan's No. 30, but it doesn't matter now.

A 100kg bomb was falling from the sky, turned slightly to the laser irradiation of the moving position, and directly hit the T72 turret. The violent explosion tore the Indian tank and the building on one side into pieces, and at the same time, the No. 08 at such a close distance was thrown up for a while. height, and then fell heavily.

Even though He Fan grabbed the handle, he still fell to the ground. This was the first time he felt that a tank of dozens of tons was like a lone boat on a huge wave.The items inside were smashed to pieces, the explosion suppression device was also triggered, and a burst of smoke was sprayed.This time, not only the suspension on the left side of the tank, but also the hydraulic oil pipe on the right side was severely damaged. The chassis completely lost its support and sank as a whole. Fortunately, the turret remained level.At the same time, this explosion eliminated all the surrounding Indian infantry who were about to launch rockets, and temporarily relieved the siege of No. 08.

He Fan leaned against the artillery panel to rest for a while, trying to recall his situation. He was so shocked that he couldn't remember whether he was on the battlefield or a military exercise.Was it an air raid, or fell into a septic tank dug by farmers?He turned a deaf ear to the gunner's yell in the headset, asking him to stand up and not obstruct the rotation of the turret, and only wanted to recall what happened.

The sound of machine gun fire on the armor, one after another, suddenly brought the unconscious He Fan back to reality from the brief stun.He recalled his situation, and his thoughts became sharp all of a sudden. From the shooting interval and direction, he could roughly judge that this was the firepower of his own people.He Fan struggled to get up, turned the surrounding mirror to observe the direction of the firepower, the surrounding mirror was covered with dust, and there was an obvious crack, which should be caused by the explosion just now.By all accounts, the tank was on the verge of being scrapped, but it could continue to fight for the time being.

He saw from the surrounding mirror that the troops approaching from the west were firing at him through the smoke, and a guy carrying an anti-tank rocket launcher was running around in the distance, obviously trying to get close to him, give 08 Come on.

"Wolf den, tell those blind men in front of me that they accidentally injured me."

he shouted loudly.

The flattened battlefield command system played a role in the ever-changing battlefield. The headquarters directly called the frontline troops, and all communications were transmitted through unmanned repeaters. The shooting of He Fan was stopped at the last moment.

Five drones roamed recklessly in the air, searching for the pointing laser emitted by the "Snow Wolf". Although they can also attack on their own, the higher-ups modified the order of attack, and the target pointed by the Snow Wolf has an overwhelming priority.

According to the plan drawn up by He Fan and Wang Tiechuan, Snow Wolf did not charge along with the tank, but stayed behind to support it.Wang Tiechuan's troops are not for reckless fighting. They are professional reconnaissance troops and digital combat troops.They are indispensable nodes on the informationized battlefield. They can eliminate important firepower points with just a few people, and suppress them as soon as they are discovered.They hid in a corner of the battlefield and used laser pointers to fight against advanced communication equipment, which played an unknown number of times that of ordinary infantry.

The No. 08 tank suffered heavy damage and was already "short" by a large amount, but it was still able to move.

In this battle, it suffered a lot of firepower, but none of them really penetrated.The infantry passed by the tank, all dumbfounded - this thing can still walk, but why does it look so wrong?
A soldier outside the tank suddenly fell heavily to the ground. The battlefield was noisy and no gunfire was heard, but it should be a sniper shooting.

"08, there are snipers near you." This time it was Wang Tiechuan who contacted He Fan through an external communication phone. "Don't stick your head out."

"You find him, and I'll take care of it."

"The location of 055 is roughly determined to be on the second floor of the city hall building. I just hid. The shooting is very thick. It can only be solved with your firepower."

He Fan immediately turned to this direction. There was a row of windows on the second floor of the city hall. He didn't know where the Indian snipers were hiding.

"Fire a few bursts and point out some directions."

He Fan was about to test whether No. 08 could still fight, so he turned the muzzle to aim there, and he saw a string of machine gun bullets hitting the bottom of a window, which was about at that position.At this time, the external medical soldiers desperately dragged the wounded to the back of the tank, avoiding the dangerous area in front.

The gunner took aim briefly and fired the shell.The armor-piercing rounds made a huge hole in the wall. The push bomb machine on No. 08 began to work hard, but it still works.During this period, the gunner aimed at the lieutenant general on the second floor of the city hall. From the gunner's scope, he could see someone looking out from here.The shell was loaded, and without hesitation, he hit the wall with one shot.The entire front porch of the city hall collapsed, and the Indian flag planted there and an Indian machine gun position hiding behind it fell together.

"Wolf den, there are still enemy troops in the city hall, use your artillery to bombard it immediately."

He Fan shouted to the channel that Lin Huaisheng could hear with an orderly tone. Lin Huaisheng didn't care about it, but the city hall has always been an area where attacks are prohibited on the map.He was about to ask his superiors, but Lao Ding came over and patted him on the shoulder: "It's already blown up like this, don't waste time, the superiors won't object."

The City Hall at the northern end of the Civic Square was just exposed to the range of the curved artillery fire. Lin Huaisheng gave an order, and a company of 122mm artillery fired at the same time, immediately turning the last defensive support point in the city into ruins. The troops quickly advanced to the northwest. The sound of gunfire gradually became fragmented, and the organized resistance of the enemy finally collapsed.
