Although used as an anti-tank, since it is equipped with high-explosive shells, the M40 106mm recoilless gun is no problem for fighting infantry, as if everyone likes to hit ground targets with anti-aircraft guns in the game. The

Belgian mercenaries who were busy with civil engineering work under the hillside had lost their previous calmness at the moment, and the bombardment from the recoilless guns above the hillside had caused them to lose a dozen brothers, but because Ek did not want to give up such a good attack position, the mercenaries could only hide themselves under the hillside as much as possible.

But just as you can’t hide an elephant with a tree, the sparse vegetation beneath the heights can’t completely hide a mercenary.

In particular, the M40 recoilless gun also has a matching M8C optical sight, although the magnification of this thing is not high, but it is not a problem to observe the wind and grass below, not to mention that there are many snipers on the position.

Therefore, the only thing that could limit the recoilless artillery team from killing all sides was the small amount of ammunition on the jeep. As for the

counterattack, then don’t think about it, the recoilless gun group is nine hundred meters away from the bottom of the hillside, which is small for a recoilless gun with a range of seven kilometers, but for the Belgian mercenaries below, it is a little weak, but fortunately, François has sent reinforcements, so the mercenaries can still bear to climb below and let the artillery bombard. Although he was

surprised that the opponent would have a recoilless gun, François was not too surprised, after all, he also had a field gun, which was a field gun commanded by a professional artillery!

Immediately, the mercenary artillery began to shift the direction of the artillery, and the commander in charge of calculating the shooting data quickly calculated the distance according to the map that had been marked long ago, and then transmitted it to the artillery behind him in real time.

In less than ten minutes, several field guns began to roar, tilting high-explosive shells on the heads of the butter squad.

“???”

The PMCs on the position who were taking time to eat and drink immediately looked for cover in the pots and pans, and after a burst of chickens and flying dogs, it was the angry screams of the wounded.

“Medic!”

And also shouted Ek, who wanted to destroy the cunning jeep, while the artillerymen smashed all the already small number of shells on the defensive positions.

Amid Ek’s angry cursing, the artillerymen urgently corrected the coordinates and fired another volley, this time the shelling successfully hit the target area, but the problem was that the jeep had already run!

As early as the first shelling fell, Hannibal, fearing that the only supporting artillery accident, immediately asked the jeep to return to the camp, so when the shell fell, the jeep had already driven down the hill, burrowed into the back of the high dirt mountain and disappeared. François’s support hit nothing.

Although it failed to destroy the jeep, it was not bad to drive away the other party, seeing that there was no threat, the mercenaries immediately began civil engineering work again, and soon dug up a lot of personal lying shooting cover, and then, with a roar, the two unlucky bastards went to the sky again without even screaming.

“What’s the situation?”

“Shelling!”

The confused mercenaries looked around, and soon saw the culprit, and the recoilless cannon that had just run away he returned!

And this time, he also replenished shells!

So the Belgian mercenaries could only cover themselves like ostriches again, and Ek called the artillery for the first time, and this time the artillerymen reacted unfast, completing the steering and ranging in five minutes, and then shelling. Then, the

jeep ran back again, and the shell fell on the head of the butter squad again, although no one was injured this time, but the meal process was interrupted again when the team was only halfway through, which made the PMCs angry, everyone fought fiercely for hours, in this case it was okay to eat hot food, how to eat a cookie and drink cold water have to be bombarded?

Even more torturous were the Belgian mercenaries under the hillside, and after being killed and wounded by recoilless artillery, more than twenty people were already asking Ek to retreat.

But fortunately, Ek’s prestige was enough to temporarily suppress his men, but it was impossible to count on artillery, and those field guns were too time-consuming, so Ike could only ask François to transfer two mortar jeeps to help.

The two jeeps were loaded with French 81mm mortars, which were also arms sales to Africa, compared to the 50mm mortars used by Uncle Black themselves, not only had a long range, but also were much more powerful, and during the siege of Yadoville in 1961, the Fabi mercenaries had already used mortars on jeeps.

The two jeeps that received the order immediately drove back to the forest, made a large circle and drove out of the southern forest again, and as soon as they came out of the forest, the mercenaries driving the jeep saw a fire burst ahead, and then a black dot was blown up into the sky, and then fell on the hood of the car.

It was an unlucky helmet, directly scorched black and steaming, but the driver had seen it, he raised his hand and threw the helmet aside, then continued to drive, driving the jeep to a stop in the shadows at the edge of the forest.

“Get to the gun position!”

The mercenaries began to adjust the angle of fire and charge in a race against time, and the recoilless guns on the hillside were still addicted to beating the mercenaries below who could not fight back, until a whistling mortar shell landed less than twenty meters away from the jeep, and the shrapnel even collapsed on the body, the squad noticed the mercenary mortar hiding in the shadows.

Without the slightest hesitation, the driver jumped into the car and began to shift positions, he parked the car further south of the hill, where the terrain is gentler and the view is clearer. The

loader holds a HEAT ammunition, also known as a hollow charge armor-breaking shell, which is a metal jet formed after the explosion of a shaped charge that penetrates the armor.

This is a sharp weapon used by recoilless guns for anti-armor, and it is even more hand-to-hand to bomb jeeps.

The mortar also saw the recoilless gun that changed positions, and the two sides immediately began a hand-speed competition to see who was ready to correct and fire first. In the end, the

recoilless gun was slightly superior, and a shot was fired first, although this ammunition did not directly hit any jeep, but it was also dangerously brushed aside, the explosion directly made the mercenaries on the car fall, and the second mortar, although successfully completed the shot, but because of the wrong distance calculation, the shell deflected by more than thirty meters, except for blowing up a puddle of dirt.

Now, it’s the turn of the two sides to start the second round!
