Many weapons would be used. Large artillery cannons could fire powerful shells many miles. Helicopter gunships, (UH-1 and AH-1), fixed wing aircraft gunships (AC-47), fighter bombers ( F-100, F-105, F-4, A-1, A-4 A-6, A-7) and if that did not work: they would send in the B-52s and carpet bomb the area and that usually did the job.
