Crossing through time 04, I blew up the American aircraft carrier.

In the 1970s, the US military suffered greatly from its own M19 mortars in the jungles of Vietnam.

It weighs thirty kilograms, which is too much for one person to carry. It has to be disassembled and moved. By the time you've hauled it up the mountain and reassembled it, the Yuehou guerrilla team will have already disappeared!

After much painful reflection, they decided to build a lightweight mortar!

Thus, the M224 mortar came into being!

With a nickel alloy barrel and a titanium-aluminum bracket, the combat weight is reduced to 20.8 kg!

The cannon barrel weighs only 6.5 kilograms. If you're in a hurry, you don't even need to install a support frame. You can just hold the cannon barrel with your hand and insert the shell!

This thing is similar to the Japanese grenade launcher from back then, but its range is over three kilometers!

The shell weighs 1.7 kilograms and can create a kill radius of 15 meters, not to mention its rate of fire of 30 rounds per minute!

Later, in the Afghan war, the US military carried it with them on every trip, which was much more convenient than calling for air support!

As for now...

The squid are cunning. Before our hell cannons can even get close, their spies will detect them in advance. Hassan's rockets are too accurate, and if they hurt innocent people, they will easily attract unnecessary public opinion.

Besides, Sana'a will belong to us Houthi sooner or later, we can't afford to damage our own property!

For long range and high accuracy, the M224 mortar is the best choice!

As a special forces soldier, one must master the operation of major weapons from around the world, and the M224 mortar is naturally no exception!

First, install the 1.6 kg base plate to the breech of the gun barrel, and then install the 6.9 kg bracket to the front of the gun barrel...

"Hey, did you understand?"

"Got it!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's do it together!"

And so, to Tariq's astonishment, one, two, three... five mortars were installed!

Qin Yuan was adjusting the mortar's elevation angle, carefully making the adjustments, and then doing some calculations with pen and paper...

Apple began developing tablet computers in the 1980s and 90s, but unfortunately, they didn't mature until 2010. In the later Russo-Ukrainian conflict, tablet computers proved to be invaluable tools for artillery. Now…

It still requires manual calculation, but... thankfully another advanced piece of equipment has already been put into practical use.

"Launch the drone!"

"it is good."

Watching the quadcopter drone take off, Tariq asked curiously, "Hassan, what are we going to do?"

Could it be a surveillance target, preventing the people inside from escaping?

However, this isn't the wilderness; this is the city, with its crisscrossing streets. If the drone flies too high, it won't be able to see clearly, and if it flies too low, it's prone to collisions...

"Of course, it's archery practice!"

Drones are a great help on the modern battlefield. In addition to reconnaissance and bombing, fire correction is also one of their important tasks!

For direct-fire weapons like tank guns, the gunner can aim precisely through the sights. But for indirect-fire weapons like mortars, no matter how skilled the operator is, the first shell might miss!

Observe the point of impact, determine the miss distance, and make corrections before firing a salvo!

"Hassan, the drone is ready!"

"Alright! Everyone, prepare for firing!"

After saying that, Qin Yuan picked up an M722 smoke grenade, went to the muzzle of the cannon, let go of it with both hands, and leaned his body downwards.

The shell fell along the barrel until it reached the bottom, where it met the firing pin, and the shell was fired the next moment.

tom!

Flames shot from the muzzle, and the date-shaped shell flew out of the barrel, tracing a graceful parabola in the air as it flew into the distance...

Inside the city, the Strauss Group's Yemen branch, two-story main building.

Other buildings are still very sturdy, but the target is also obvious. After 9/11, many skyscrapers were relegated to the sidelines. Cherish life and stay away from skyscrapers!

The Davidians studied the matter repeatedly and finally concluded that a two- or three-story building would be good, as it would make evacuation easier in case of danger!

It was past closing time, and most of the staff in the building had left, making the meeting more discreet.

Second floor, in the conference room.

"Gentlemen, we've disgraced Mossad!" Graza, the head of Mossad's intelligence network in Yemen, looked at the others in the conference room. "Every operation we've undertaken against the Houthis has failed, and just a few hours ago, we suffered heavy losses!"

Several months ago, Daniel, the leader of the Saada region, was killed, and the gas cylinders he used to cover his identity were converted into deadly weapons by the Houthi rebels!

The situation recently is not optimistic.

The Yemeni government and the Saudi government are at odds, and the United States has intervened to mediate. Unfortunately, both sides stick to their own versions of events, and neither is willing to back down.

During this process, the Houthi armed forces developed rapidly, countless towns and villages changed sides, government strongholds were destroyed one by one, and the ubiquitous Hellfire cannons and Hassan rockets became the nightmare of the government forces!

There is no doubt that the Houthis have found a new source of supplies!

Mossad agents in Yemen were investigating the situation and quickly discovered that a chat application was becoming popular in Yemeni internet cafes. This application could contact various countries! The import channel was likely being facilitated through this chat application!

So, Mossad's cyber elites secretly installed Trojans on all the computers in internet cafes throughout Yemen for surveillance purposes.

Good news has also come from the Hodeidah region: they have found clues about imported gas cylinders from overseas!

Just when things seemed to be going very well, just a few hours ago, Avdia, the head of the Hodeidah region, went to bribe his informant, only to be killed!

Mossad has such a glorious record!

Stealing kills, taking hostages, carrying out assassinations... He's infamous all over the world, yet he's suffered several losses here in Yemen!

"Orders have been sent from Tel Aviv, requiring us to locate Abdul-Houthi's hideout and the Houthi armed forces' primary military industrial base as quickly as possible! Once we have the location, we can call in US aircraft from the Prince Sultan Air Base, and even our own David's aircraft can launch a long-range attack..."

They are the world's most famous intelligence agency, and they absolutely cannot afford to stumble in Yemen. They want to use a swift and decisive decapitation strike to prove to the world just how powerful they are!

"There's nothing in the world that Mossad can't do!"

"That's right, we won't let a single Houthi leader escape!"

Just then, a whistling sound that grew louder as it approached caught Graza's attention.

What's going on?

He stood up abruptly, drew back the curtains, and looked outside.

boom!

The explosion rang out in the courtyard behind the two-story building. The flames were small, but thick smoke billowed out!

"Damn it, get out of here right now!" Graza shouted.

Sana'a is the capital of North Yemen, and its defenses have recently been strengthened, so the Davids felt quite safe, which is why they held their meeting here. Little did they expect…

This place was actually attacked?
