Red Alert Somalia

"Tank, 400 distance, with at least one platoon of infantry!" In the wind and rain, the red police soldiers with hoarse voices waded in muddy water below their knees, lying on the collapsed trench wall that had been washed away by the rain, and violently resisted A joint attack by Ethiopian troops and the French."Damn, this is a Frenchman, otherwise there won't be a Leclerc tank!"

It should be said that the 2nd Armored Brigade is indeed the pride of the French. When it was the 2nd Armored Division, it was General Leclerc who led this force into Paris and liberated the French ruled by the Germans for 4 years. capital.

In this battle, the 3rd Tank Company of the 6th Heavy Cavalry Battle Group sent a platoon of armored forces to conduct wandering operations on the flanks of the mixed armored battalion of the 8th Infantry Division of Ethiopia.In addition to using long-range firepower to provide some indirect support to the attacking Ethiopian troops, the 3rd tank company did not want to participate in direct offensive operations.However, after discovering that the situation here did not seem to be too right, the French military advisers who went out to the front line command no matter so many, they directly pressed the tank platoon.

In the frenzied burst of machine gun bullets, the Ethiopian soldiers who accompanied the battle were killed and flew, but the Leclerc main battle tank that was covering the attack did not suffer any damage, except for the steel-core warheads in its heavy armored body. Beyond the sparks that sparked countless splashes.The ferocious behemoth with the reactive armor module is still rolling forward.

In a collapsed bunker a little further away, two Red Police Corps Navy Red Police soldiers were busy nervously around a 120mm anti-tank system battalion with anti-tank rocket system.Although the tripod was slightly tilted in the mud, the soldiers of the Red Police could no longer take care of it.

The composition of the simple fire control system of the anti-tank rocket system for the 120mm anti-tank system is composed of an optical sight system, a laser ranging system, a ballistic calculation system, a light-emitting diode spot system, a plug-in shaft connection mechanism, etc. Composed of complex components.In addition to laser ranging, automatic calculation of shooting elements, and automatic setting of shooting elements, the aiming point can also be displayed automatically.The aiming hand only needs to aim the light spot in the scope at the target.Within 10 seconds, the shooting elements can be determined.

The Leclerc main battle tank did not realize the danger was coming. The ferocious beast-like steel body was still coming through the wind and rain, and the crawler creaked over the mud and flew up the dirty mud.

"Shoo." A glare of fire came oncomingly, so fast, so hot, and so frightening.

As the warhead of the 120mm anti-tank armor-piercing rocket hit Leclerc with reactive armor, the inner and outer cover of the front-stage warhead probe component at the front end of the warhead was immediately closed, and the fuze power was switched on.

The front-stage fuze instantly detonated the front-stage charge, and the reactive armor block was instantly detonated.At the same time, after the fuze delay, after it was determined that the reactive armor was detonated and the interference with the jet formation of the main charge was basically eliminated, the main charge was detonated, and the resulting armor-piercing jet was instantly removed. Infiltrated the armor of this Leclerc main battle tank.

The muzzle velocity is 246 m/s, the maximum armor piercing thickness is 800 mm, and the armor piercing thickness at 68 degrees is 230 mm.Such data is directly equivalent to the sentence of death for this Leclerc main battle tank.

The anger of the frustrated offensive caused the Ethiopian Eighth Infantry Division Artillery Regiment and the Djibouti Artillery Regiment to once again use fierce artillery to sort out the unpredictable position that had already been bombarded by artillery fire.

The artillery units of the Red Police Corps deployed behind the defensive line did not show any weakness to the fierce artillery attacks on the French and Ethiopian armed forces.

The sudden torrential rain blurred the horizons of the two sides. It seemed that the arrival of the torrential rain prevented both sides from considering the impact of the air force, and the shelling by both sides became more and more intense.

The shells from both sides cut countless brilliant tracks in the sky, and the bright ballistic trajectory covered the entire rain curtain.

155mm towed artillery, 120mm rifled recoil mortar system, British 105mm light howitzer, legal 155mm self-propelled howitzer, it is hard to imagine that the Eighth Infantry Division of Ethiopia and the Djibouti Artillery Regiment were in this short afternoon. , How many shells were shot.

On the artillery positions of the Red Police soldiers, dozens of 155 howitzers and 105mm light howitzers smashed 3.5 base ammunition on the open ground in just two hours.If it were not for the strong support of artillery, perhaps the defense forces would have to pay a great price for casualties.After all, the Ethiopian and French offenses were crazy.

As soon as the dense artillery fire extended, the attacking Ethiopian armed forces came up again. Under the cover of the armored tanks, groups of turbid waves drilled out of the rain curtain, like patches of gray shadows densely packed between the sky and the earth. same.

"Shoo." With the first scream, a 105mm grenade fell from the sky, blasting a ball of fire with shrapnel.The mud was flying in the sky, and the plume of smoke rose and was torn to pieces by the wind in a blink of an eye, and more shells fell one after another.

The scorching flames were everywhere, and the earth trembled crazily in this trembling like a drum, and there was a boiling scene between the heavens and the earth.

Rows of cannonballs fell down one after another, and the raised soil engulfed the firelight and steel to spread a carpet of death between the world.The air-explosive bombs whizzing through the air spilled rain-like fragments, and countless shrapnel shot down, and the entire open area was completely covered.Amid the indistinct explosion sound, a piece of flesh and blood splashed.

The advancing Ethiopian soldiers seemed to have not avoided the death from the sky. They were struggling through the mud, and people were constantly being torn into pieces by shells.A blood-red color between heaven and earth.The flesh and blood on the ground was quickly washed away by the rain.Some of the wounded with broken arms and legs were not unable to support the arrival of the ambulances. They could only lie helplessly in the mud, allowing the dirty sewage to wash away their pale wounds.

The wailing sounds of crying fathers and mothers were everywhere.This is an almost cruel killing.But the war is like this, and the rows of shells will not care about anything.Many soldiers died slowly in pain in this way.

But this is just one of the nightmares.155 mm grenades and 105 mm grenades fell one after another in a spiral from the rain curtain. The ground was filled with craters dug out. These craters were soon filled by rain.When the wounded Ethiopian soldiers were overturned by gunfire in muddy water, they had no way of struggling. They were helplessly drowned in muddy water, and eventually drowned in these puddles. .

The entire battlefield is now like a huge meat grinder, swallowing countless lives in it, grinding them into dripping flesh and blood.Most of them will not even have a complete body.Those shrapnel shots would tear their bodies to pieces without hesitation, penetrate into the flesh and blood with the utmost cruelty, releasing blood from the ruptured wound.Nothing is more cruel to be suffered like this, but this is war.

In the sharp whistling sound, the coalition forces also used the most violent artillery to cover the troops' attack.Dozens of shells covered the Red Police Reinforced Battalion in almost an instant.The huge cloud of smoke from the explosion billowed and was quickly blown away by the wind and rain.The fierce shelling almost exploded into a point.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of artillery cover, the attacking Ethiopian troops, while leaving corpses everywhere, also viciously rammed into the defensive positions of the Red Police soldiers.A collision between steel and iron unfolded again.Deafening explosions sounded almost at the same time, and the 120, 81, and 60 mm mortars of the Red Police Corps began to build new walls of fire before their positions.

Before the Ethiopian soldiers broke through the fire net, the sharp machine gun roar sounded again.The scorching fire whip was everywhere.Rows of bullets were flying in the wind and rain, splashing water and mud all over the ground.The Ethiopian soldiers who rushed in with the cat screamed and fell.The 35mm anti-explosive grenades fired from the blocking positions were mixed in, and they continued to spill and die.

There was chaotic killing everywhere, and soldiers from both sides were fighting mercilessly in this storm.Although those Panhard wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicles continue to use fierce machine guns and direct firepower to cover the impact of the troops, it seems that the effect is not very good.The firepower of some red police soldiers burst into a ball of fire from the burst of sub-caliber explosive shells of the 90mm artillery, and the sky was full of corpse fragments and weapons.

However, the soldiers of the Ethiopian Eighth Infantry Division and the French 4th Light Cavalry Brigade found sadly that the defense systems of the Red Police soldiers are far from the same.Engineers proficient in the earthwork industry followed the defensive line and completely constructed the entire periphery of Zela City into a huge defensive network.Anti-tank trenches, trenches, and traffic trenches are densely covered with spider webs.Although they have already cut into the first line of the Red Police Corps army, this is only the beginning of the fierce battle.

Taking advantage of terrain and trench movement, the Red Police Corps anti-tank soldiers flew out from the flanks a 120mm anti-tank system or a v-1ft anti-tank tank. Those Leclerc main battle tanks with excellent protection are still there. Can't block a fatal kiss, can it be blocked by wheeled armored vehicles that are not very protective?The battle was suddenly heated.

Knowing that things cannot be done, the Ethiopian armed forces decided to take a gamble. After putting together the remnants of the three regiments of the 8th Infantry Division, the remnants of the three regiments were able to make up one of them. The power of the camp.After the Eighth Infantry Division had cut into the first-line defensive position of the Red Police Corps naval Red Police soldiers, the Ethiopian armed forces, at the direction of the French military advisers, put the reserve force of this regiment into the defense of the Red Police Reinforced Battalion. Relying on this reserve force to open the deadlock.

Since the combat troops of the four companies are deployed from the south to the north, the entire reinforced battalion has no reserve force at all.After pushing the outer defense circle of Zela City forward for a full 5 kilometers, the battalion also realized the problem of insufficient reserve force.Therefore, when supporting forces including artillery companies were deployed at the commanding heights in the western part of the town, the reinforced battalion special reconnaissance platoons, armored companies, light armored reconnaissance squadrons and other units were deployed in a combination of south and west. Department rear.

Obviously, this mobile force is the battle reserve for the entire Zera defense, and it is also the only reserve.

In this way, the only mobile force that the reinforced battalion can actually put into is the two armored units of the special reconnaissance platoon, armored company, and light armored reconnaissance squadron.

In the face of the frenzied offensive by the Ethiopian armed forces again and again, the combat forces that have strengthened their armored forces such as multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles and Apocalypse main battle tanks are in a hurry.The front-line combat troops are killing you to death with Frenchmen and Ethiopian monkeys, but they can only watch from the sidelines.How could the soldiers not be impatient.
