63 earth-shattering sounds
At this time, the car from the logistics department to deliver the shells arrived. The soldiers of each squad unloaded the shell boxes and transported them to their own gun trucks, and each of them had a burly gunner holding a rocket shell firmly in his hand. Be prepared to reload.
"Hurry up and get started. Don't let the rostrum be in a hurry. "The chief of staff looked at his watch and felt that the pace of progress was not ideal. urged. "Start now! Quick!" Chief Yang anxiously urged Staff Officer Zhang.
"Yes!" Seeing that Staff Officer Zhang was in good spirits, he stretched out his hand to open the skylight on the command car, picked up a small red flag beside him, and stood on a small stool.
Chief Yang flicked a button, and Staff Officer Zhang's body rose up, and he got out of the command car through the skylight. At this time, I saw the off-road vehicle of the commander of the fourth battalion Chu quickly driving near the command vehicle.
About 50 meters away, Battalion Commander Chu stopped the car, and faced the direction of the command vehicle with a small red flag in his hand, and then several officers who came with him quickly ran in the direction of the artillery.
From the command vehicle to the artillery position, the battalion commander, the company commander, and the platoon commander stood respectively, and it seemed as if they were trying to convey the firing order step by step.
"Target, enemy airborne troops!" Seeing that the commanders at all levels were in place, Unit Commander Yang immediately picked up the shooting list signed by the chief of staff and gave the order.
"Target, enemy airborne troops!" Staff Officer Zhang raised the small red flag in his hand and recited Commander Yang's order aloud.
"Target, enemy airborne troops!" Battalion Commander Chu repeated.
"Target, enemy airborne troops!" the company commander and platoon commander continued to recuperate in turn, until they reached the artillery position.
"Ruler: 200!" Chief Yang continued to give detailed orders.
"Ruler, 200!" Staff Officer Zhang, Battalion Commander Chu, Company Commander, and Platoon Commander recited the same thing, word for word.
"Ruler, 200!" the voice of the repetition from the artillery position was clear and unambiguous.
Direction, 10-7
Direction, 10-7
Direction, 10-7
"One shot, one shot, one reload!" the command came to an end.
"One shot, one shot, one shot!"
"One shot, one shot, one shot!"
When the order to reload the shell reached the gun position, the soldier with the shell stood firmly in front of the barrel, pushed the shell into the chamber in a graceful posture, and heard a "click" and the gun was closed.
"Good!" the loader reported loudly, and the shell was loaded.
At this time, the audience seemed to hold their breath, waiting to hear the cannonballs roar out. However, I don't know what Staff Officer Zhang is nervous or waiting for, and the order has not been issued.
"Put!" The chief of staff at this time personally gave the order to shoot.
"Release!" Staff Officer Zhang ordered in a trembling voice. The little red flag held high fell in an instant,
"Let's go!" Battalion Commander Chu also dropped the small red flag in his hand.
"Put!"
"Put!"
Every time he shouted "release," a small red flag fell from the sky, and it seemed that the small red flag seemed to be a primitive command signal.
Several "put" in a row, as if exaggerating the tense atmosphere before the earth-shattering, until the squad leader on the artillery position issued a "put" and saw a flash of fire at the muzzle,
In an instant, the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and the "boom" shook the earth with a loud bang, and the rocket was discharged, and immediately after that, the roar of the flight of artillery shells was heard in the air.
I noticed that at this moment, the ground on the training ground was shaking, the command vehicle I was in was shaking, the small grove trees in front of me were shaking, the leaves were falling with a clatter, and several birds flew into the sky in horror.
The first time I heard the rumbling cannon, my soul and body were shaken. This is the power of artillery, this is the artistic conception of war, I didn't encounter it during the war years,
But he also personally listened to the roar of artillery fire, and a metal cannonball, under the magical effect of science and technology, would fly hundreds of miles away in an instant......
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. Just when I was shocked by the tremendous power of the cannon discharge, the eyes of the chief of staff, Chief of Staff, Chief Yang, and Li De anxiously focused on the location of the target area on the display screen.
In the image from the command post ahead, the roar of the shells about to land was heard, and then there was a loud explosion, and the shells fell in the middle of the small trees on the hillside, and a ball of flames suddenly rose into the air.
"Hit!" came the sound of excited cheers from the command post.
"Keep shooting!" The chief of staff couldn't hide the joy of victory on his face, and gave the order to continue to Commander Yang.
This time, Chief Yang no longer gave those instructions on the shooting table, but directly ordered:
"Two guns and one round loading!" Staff Officer Zhang once again raised the small red flag in his hand.
"Two shots, one shot, one shot!"
"Two shots, one shot, one shot!"
"Two shots, one shot, one shot!"
The battalion commander, company commander, and platoon commander all raised small red flags again.
This time, I barely noticed the echo of "good" reloading from the gun emplacement, and my ears were still buzzing with the whistling sound of the first shell just now,
I don't know when Staff Officer Zhang gave the order to "put", "Boom, boom, boom-" The second shell was fired.
The moment the third and fourth shells were fired, I just felt the continuous shaking of the ground, and where could I still savor the details of those artillery firings.
However, I noticed that after each shell was fired, the chief of staff had to carefully observe the impact point of the target, and he always had a satisfied smile on his face, and I knew that today's live firing was a success.
"Hehe, according to the observation report from the forward command post, there is no problem in calling 'excellent' this time. Staff Officer Zhang didn't know what to do and returned to his position in the car from outside the car.
He received the observation report from the forward command post and handed it to me with a smile, and I hurriedly sent it to the chief of staff.
"Hehe!" said the chief of staff, with a happy smile on his face, and then said, "I have to report the situation!" and as he spoke, he struggled to lift his burly body and prepare to get out of the car.
Seeing this, I hurriedly got out of the way, got out of the car first, and helped the chief of staff down. In actual combat exercises, the guards cannot leave the chief, but the chief cannot follow behind the butt and get in the way when the chief is on official business.
The Chief of Staff strode to the podium, and I symbolically followed a few steps, then hid in the middle of a nearby bush, waiting for the Chief of Staff to return.
The chief of staff came to the rostrum and reported the situation as the battalion commanders had just done:
"Report to Chief of Staff Xu! The 130th Rocket Artillery Battalion has completed live firing, and all targets have been annihilated! Please instruct. Reporter: Chen Changgeng, Chief of Staff of the Artillery Regiment and Commander-in-Chief of the Exercise. ”
"Continue the drill!" Chief of Staff Xu stood up politely, returned a military salute to Chief of Staff Chen, and gave the order. "Yes!" Chief of Staff Chen turned around and walked in the direction of the command vehicle.
Seeing this, I hurriedly greeted him. Chief of Staff Chen did not let me follow him, but handed me the observation report in his hand and asked me to send it to the rostrum.
