Amazing Son-in-law Chapter 3152

 He then immediately ordered, "Tell everyone to prepare for the shelling! Everyone must wear their helmets, cover their ears and never leave the pit, and pass the word down that they must not lean against the walls of the pit either, but preferably on the ground, and if there is something softer to cushion them on, it will effectively mitigate the shock damage from the close range shelling!"


        Most of the time, artillery kills the human body by the shrapnel from the blast, or the rocks blown up by the blast, or any other hard object that is blown up.


        However, the shock waves from the blast of an artillery piece can also cause great damage to the human body, and if close enough, can potentially shatter a person's internal organs.


        Hamid had no grand strategic thinking, but he had, after all, worked his way up through the battlefield to this point, so there were plenty of practical little lessons to be learned.


        His orders were passed from one level to the next, and the soldiers in the various pits received them.


        So many of them started to get on the ground and find something soft to spread on the ground.


        Many of the soldiers went to the entrance of the pit and brought in a large amount of soft soil. Before the nervous Su Shoudao could understand what the men were doing, he heard the soldier who was guarding him shout, "What are you still doing? Hurry up and get some soil to spread under you, or else you will suffer internal bleeding if a cannonball explodes in front of you!"


        When Su Shoudao heard this, he asked in a panic, "Is there really going to be a war? Can you go and talk to Commander Hamid and ask him to send a helicopter to send me away first, I've never fought in a war, so there's no use staying here."


        The soldier said in a cold voice: "The helicopter has long gone, you can't go anywhere now, if you don't want to die, get some dirt, if you want to try your luck, stay here and don't do anything."


        When Su Shoudao heard this, how could he dare to pretend any longer.


        So while cursing Ye Chen in his heart in the most vicious language, he reluctantly followed the others and went outside the cave entrance to prepare the soil.


        Su Shoudao shovelled a bucket of mud with an empty diesel engine lubricating oil bucket, and had just picked it up to walk back when a sharp cracking sound came from outside.


        Before he could figure out what the sound was, deafening explosions rang out in quick succession!


        The shelling, it had begun!


        In this instant, the whole mountain seemed to shake.


        And the base outside the cave entrance, which was located in the valley, had instantly fallen into a sea of fire.


        Su Shoudao screamed out loud in fright, growing up, it was the first time he had come into zero contact with war.


        He felt that his ears had been deafened, and in addition to the ringing in his ears, his eardrums were in great pain, and the internal organs of his body felt as if they had just been pounded, as uncomfortable as they could be.


        The soldiers who were guarding him hastily dragged him into the pit, and immediately afterwards, a second round of artillery shells roared in!


        The second round was still aimed at the base in the valley, and the deafening explosions were incessant and incessant!


        Su Shoudao hurriedly covered his ears with his hands and crouched on the ground, shivering.


        The other soldiers, on the other hand, were already prepared to defend themselves against the explosions.


        Round after round of shells tilted down, causing no effect on these soldiers.


        On the contrary, as the shelling continued for longer and longer, a strong sense of security and superiority came over the soldiers' psyche.


        They had witnessed with their own eyes how effective the anti-slope fortifications were in dealing with the shelling.


        Hiding in such a strong fortification to meet the shelling was like hiding in an armoured car and being shot at by the natives with bows and arrows, and instead of having any fear, the soldiers felt a sense of psychological superiority towards the enemy that was almost mocking!


        The more shells the enemy fired, the higher the morale of Hamid's men!
