I don't know a specific surah on Mortars but this is what the Quran says about Holy War:
Slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out ... if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. 2:191
Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you. 2:216
Fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward. 4:74
Those who believe do battle for the cause of Allah; and those who disbelieve do battle for the cause of idols. So fight the minions of the devil. 4:76
They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them. 4:89
If they keep not aloof from you nor offer you peace nor hold their hands, then take them and kill them wherever ye find them. Against such We have given you clear warrant. 4:91
The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter theirs will be an awful doom. 5:33
I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger. 8:12
When ye meet those who disbelieve in battle, turn not your backs to them. Whoso on that day turneth his back to them, unless manoeuvring for battle or intent to join a company, he truly hath incurred wrath from Allah, and his habitation will be hell, a hapless journey's end. Ye (Muslims) slew them not, but Allah slew them. And thou (Muhammad) threwest not when thou didst throw, but Allah threw. 8:15-17
And let not those who disbelieve suppose that they can outstrip (Allah's Purpose). Lo! they cannot escape. Make ready for them all thou canst of (armed) force and of horses tethered, that thereby ye may dismay the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others beside them whom ye know not. Allah knoweth them. 8:59-60
Exhort the believers to fight. If there be of you twenty steadfast they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a hundred (steadfast) they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they (the disbelievers) are a folk without intelligence. 8:65
It is not for any prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land. 8:67
Slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. 9:5
If they ... assail your religion, then fight the heads of disbelief ... Will ye not fight a folk who broke their solemn pledges, and purposed to drive out the messenger and did attack you first? What! Fear ye them? Now Allah hath more right that ye should fear Him, if ye are believers Fight them! Allah will chastise them at your hands, and He will lay them low and give you victory over them. 9:12-14
O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites! Be harsh with them. Their ultimate abode is hell, a hapless journey's end. 9:73
Believers ... shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. 9:111
O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you. 9:123
Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks. 47:4

I think the word you meant was Martyrs! And in particular why Allah would love those who die fighting for his cause (Islam). Well, you must first realize that it is only legislated by Allah that Muslims fight to stop oppression, to uphold justice, or to protect themselves. Muslims are not legislated by Allah to fight and kill people to make them convert. As there is no compulsion in religion. Which has been grossly misunderstood by many Muslims and Non-Muslims alike.
Now why Allah loves those who fight and die (fighting oppression and injustice) in his cause is because they die fighting for the rights of all mankind. They fight to uphold Allah's laws and prohibitions, which in essence are the constitution he has laid down for Mankind. So just as the patriotic soldier dies for America or any other country, fighting for a cause they believe in... so does the Mujahadeen, fighting in the way of Allah against oppression and injustice in the world.

Among those who will occupy the highest levels in Paradise are the shuhaadaa, the best of whom are those who fight in the front ranks and never turn away until they are killed. Ahmad and at-Tabaraani report with a saheeh isnaad from Na'eem ibn Hamar (1) that the Prophet (saw) said, "The best of the Shuhaadaa are those who fight in the first rank, and do not turn their faces away until they are killed. They will have the pleasure of occupying the highest dwellings in Paradise. Your Rabb will smile at them, and whenever your Rabb smiles upon any of His Slaves, that person will not be brought to account". [Musnad Ahmad, Kitaab az-Zuhd, Baab al-Ihsaan ila al-armila wal-masaakeen wal-yateem 2/2286, hadith no. 2982]
Because they put their lives at risk without any fear in the name of Allah. And they die for Allah knowing he is the one and only. And these martyrs will enter jannah (heaven) before the day of judgment.

This because they sacrifice everything for God, this is not the only way to God, the ink of the scholars is worth more than the blood that was shed by the martyrs.

If you've been studying Islam, which Muslims say is a peaceful, loving religion ... why do you ask the question with a "pissed off" expression?
What the heck is a mortar?

Islam means submission.
What is the greatest submission, wealth, life?
There is no doubt that life is the greatest sacrifice.

cause mortars fly away to targets and kill so the brave men won't have to go out and do it themselves..you'll notice in iraq and other places the brave "warriors" often hide behind women's skirts and little children cause they're so brave.
