Chapter 300 Independent Artillery Battalion or Artillery Division?
"What's the trouble?" After listening to the words of the combat staff officer, Lu Weijun asked puzzledly, and the combat staff officer glanced at the distance data on the parameter screen, and then pointed to the military map beside him and explained:
"You see, the enemy's east and west artillery groups are 13 kilometers away from our radar position, and if the original artillery position is set up, our Type 59 130mm cannon can still use long-range bottom exhaust shells, but because of the secret observation post of the Vietnamese army, the Type 59 130mm cannon position is 20 kilometers back.
The 122mm and 152mm howitzer formations that fought the Vietnamese army just now were a little difficult, and now they are far beyond the firing range, and if they want to strike, they can only remobilize, and the time spent in this way is enough for the Vietnamese army to carry out several rounds of attacks on us, and then it will be too much to lose!"
"Therefore, our target parameter instructions will not be issued to the Type 59 130mm cannon group!"
"Who is it for?" Hearing Lu Jiadong's words, the staff officer of the Operations Department couldn't help but ask with his eyes wide and incredulously, while Lu Jiadong pointed to the small red circle in the corner of the map and said firmly:
"Just send it to them, separate artillery battalion!"
"Independent artillery battalion?" The staff officer of the combat department repeated in confusion, then stared at the map, and continued worriedly: "They only have eighteen artillery pieces, but the Vietnamese army has more than 40 guns, and the distance between the two is more than 30 kilometers, so I think the firepower is still a little weak, and it is better to have other troops to support it!"
As soon as the staff officer of the Operations Department finished speaking, Lu Weijun, commander of the Independent Artillery Battalion who was standing on the side, said confidently: "Don't worry! Our Independent Artillery Battalion is at this distance, and it is not a problem at all to deal with these dozens of artillery pieces, and if the firepower is fully fired, the 18 artillery pieces of our battalion are enough to withstand an artillery group of the Vietnamese army!"
"But this is only one, and the Vietnamese army on the opposite side is two, you must know that the combat instructions of the front finger are very clear, that is, to kill chickens with a knife!"
"This" Listening to the words of the operational staff officer, Lu Weijun couldn't help but groan, he knew that the operational staff officer meant to finish his work in one battle. Concentrating superior forces to solve the problem at one time so as not to leave behind future troubles, and this is also the core idea of the previous combat plan, and it is precisely because of this. Lu Weijun didn't know what to say for a while.
In fact, it is not only Lu Weijun who knows this meaning, although Lu Jiadong, who is standing next to him, is only a technical support personnel, but because he is responsible for training officers and soldiers, he also knows the connotation, so after the operational staff officer said this. Lu Jiadong's brows twisted slightly, and then he picked up the conversation:
"It is right to emphasize the use of cattle knives to kill chickens, but the art of war is very fast, although I am only a technician and don't know how to fight, but I also know this, not to mention that the Vietnamese army has fierce firepower, and the 130mm cannon used has a long range, if a firepower extension may pose a threat to our border settlements, so these two artillery groups need to be uprooted as soon as possible!"
listened to Lu Jiadong's words. Lu Weijun's eyes couldn't help but light up, and then nodded: "Jia Dong is right, and the battle plan of the previous finger also states the speed of counterattack, so I think it is better to let the independent artillery battalion go up first, and now only they have the ability to reach it, so press it first! As for the other support forces, they can follow up later!"
"En!" The staff officer of the front command of the combat department pondered for a moment, although the worry had not completely dissipated, but he still nodded slightly: "Now we can only do it according to your opinion, since this is the case, then let's report it quickly!"
The staff officer of the Operations Department had just finished speaking. Lu Weijun nodded heavily, then turned around and picked up the communication phone, and after it was connected, he couldn't wait for the operator to speak, so he couldn't wait to shout:
"Give me a separate artillery battalion"
At the same time that Lu Weijun picked up the communication phone, he was on the position of the independent artillery battalion located in the deep zone behind the artillery radar position. Qian Aimin, the deputy battalion commander, also picked up the phone at the same time, but before he could shout, the battalion staff officer next to him stepped forward and reminded:
"Deputy battalion commander, the order of the previous commander is very clear, you must obey the unified arrangement, and you must not"
"Smack~~!" didn't wait for the battalion headquarters staff officer to finish speaking. Qian Aimin snapped the telephone on fiercely, and then walked back and forth in front of the command plane with an anxious face, and stopped for a long time, pointing to the rumbling explosion in the distance, and said unwillingly:
"Look at how well the other troops fought? Ten minutes, two artillery groups, cleanly knocked out, looking at us, except for the infantry positions of the Vietnamese army that bombarded for a while when the war began, it was almost more than an hour, and we can only be a spectator here, and they are also singing, even if we don't have a protagonist, how can we play a supporting role, but now it's good, and I haven't even caught a cutscene carrying a small flag!"
"Deputy Battalion Commander, are we going to wait a little longer, maybe"
"Jingle bell~~~" Before the battalion staff officer's words of consolation were halfway through, the communication telephone on the command plane sounded a pleasant ringtone, Qian Aimin's eyes suddenly widened when he saw this, and then he rushed forward with an arrow step, grabbed the earpiece, and said excitedly after hearing the inquiry from the microphone clearly:
"Lao Lu, don't you know, the comrades on the battlefield look forward to it every day, think about it every year, just wait for your call"
"you, it's been less than an hour since it was launched, where did you come from every day, every year, you kid must be unable to wait!"
"Then you still need to say it!" As soon as Lu Weijun on the other end of the phone finished speaking, Qian Aimin responded with a very affirmative expression, and then his face became serious in an instant, and then he motioned to the battalion staff officer next to him to prepare for the record, and then continued to respond:
"I'm ready, you say, well, okay The distance is 34 kilometers, the height is 450, the east and west are 9028, and the north and south are 7015" As Qian Aimin kept repeating the target indication parameters on the phone, the battalion headquarters staff officer quickly recorded it with a pen, and several other staff officers either determined the direction on the map according to the parameters, or notified the various gun emplacements on the position, or sorted out and determined the types of ammunition used and related tactics.
All in all, as the radar position transmits the target indication parameters, the entire independent artillery battalion automatically enters the combat state, and all links are seen in an orderly manner, just like a sophisticated combat vehicle, which is launched with a bang from the moment it receives the order, and it will never stop unless the enemy is crushed.
In this way, after Qian Aimin reported the last parameter, the eighteen guns belonging to the entire independent artillery battalion were already ready, the slender barrels pointed straight to the sky, and the officers and soldiers on each gun position neatly arranged the shells and medicine packs attached to the gun positions behind the side of the gun position, waiting for the long-awaited order.
But after the battalion headquarters staff reported the readiness to Qian Aimin, Qian Aimin nodded with satisfaction, and then said firmly and confidently:
"Lao Lu, don't worry, it only takes 5 minutes, and we can let the two artillery groups of the Vietnamese army go to the west to see his grandmother!"
"All gun positions according to the set target, one minute rapid fire, release!"
With Qian Aimin's order, the eighteen guns instantly emitted a deafening roar, with the discharge of the 155mm heavy shells, the ammunition hand who had been waiting next to the gun position quickly put the shells on the semi-automatic filling machine, and then under the effect of the semi-automatic filling machine, the shells and medicine bags were quickly loaded into the gun chamber, and then the gun bolt was closed, and the shooter pressed the firing button, and a heavy howitzer shell whistled out from the muzzle again.
From loading to firing, the commanders and fighters on the gun position cooperate tacitly, under the effect of the semi-automatic loading machine, an astonishing rate of fire erupts, less than ten seconds of effort a shell is sprayed out, this amazing situation if only one or two guns, what is shocking is that the entire independent artillery battalion belongs to the eighteen 52 times the caliber 155mm howitzer without exception, all so, so that in just one minute, each artillery with the maximum rate of fire fired 6 shells, 18 artillery pieces are a full 108 shells, facing the east side of the Vietnamese army 130mm artillery group The sky was instantly covered by dense shells like a rainstorm
"Oh my God! Is there really only one independent artillery battalion deployed in that place?" At this moment, in the operating cabin of the new artillery radar, when the staff officer of the combat department saw a large red point of light rising from the independent artillery battalion on the radar screen, he couldn't believe his eyes, and quickly took out the combat map and troop distribution table to check it, and then nodded:
"It's really just a separate artillery battalion!" but then his face was replaced by a look of extreme shock, so much so that even his speech was a little incoherent:
"But from the point of view of this firepower density, where is this battalion, it is simply a whole artillery division, my obedient, this wave of shells will be smashed down, and the Vietnamese artillery group will inevitably be gone!"
"So I told you just now, it only takes 5 minutes, and the monkey two cannon groups can be reimbursed!"
"En!" Listening to Lu Weijun's words, the staff officer of the Operations Department couldn't help but nodded, and his calm face showed irrepressible excitement: "I didn't believe it just now, but now I'm really convinced, and the power of this independent artillery battalion is really not boastful! In this way, it is enough for Vietnamese monkeys to drink a pot!"
In less than a minute, more than 100 heavy artillery shells fell at the same time, and the commander of the artillery group grabbed the communication phone and lay down in the trench and shouted frantically:
"Command! Command! A Chinese artillery division launched a fierce attack on our position, repeat, a Chinese artillery division" (to be continued. )
