In fact, without waiting for Sokolovsky to explain, Ilyutin was already standing in front of the special measuring instrument and waiting, at this time the sound of the shells breaking through the air became louder and louder when they flew, and at first it was still a "buzz~~" sound, but as the shells fell rapidly, the sound also turned into a piercing scream.

It's just that this kind of whistling sound like the call of death did not last long, in the blink of an eye, the kung fu shell smashed at a fixed angle to the artillery position of the Vietnamese army, which was already empty, with a violent explosion, the earth began to shake violently, and the huge sound was one after another, the violent explosion made the soil on the ground be thrown up, and the powerful shock wave formed instantly swept away the surrounding trees and grass, at this moment, this place that was just the artillery position of the Vietnamese army was already dusty, and the fire was soaring

Seeing this situation, the Vietnamese troops who had already withdrawn to a safe area were all frightened and turned pale with fright, and they broke out in a cold sweat, they did not expect that the Chinese's artillery fire would be so fierce, and they did not even hit a single target shell and directly carried out fire coverage shooting, but fortunately they withdrew early, if it was a minute or two later, their 122mm howitzer unit of the Vietnamese army would be reduced to ashes by these ruthless artillery!

"The Chinese really paid for it, and they used a cannon regiment for the first strike!" said Ilyutin behind the chest wall of the 152mm cannon position, observing the huge wind formed by the shock wave.

And Sokolovsky saw a wave of high waves on the empty position, and his face showed a look of grasping everything, such a situation is not the result he Sokolovsky wants most, it seems that the Chinese on the opposite side are not worth mentioning at all except for locust-like crowd tactics, especially the artillery unit, whether it is weapons and equipment or tactical application compared with the Soviet Union, it is simply not worthy of lifting shoes, thinking of which the corners of Sokolovsky's mouth turned up slightly, showing a confident smile:

"A regiment? If it is a regiment, it is really good, you must know that the Chinese will not put more than three long-range cannon regiments on the battlefield in Vietnam, and now one is concentrated in our front, as long as this regiment is defeated, there will be a gap in firepower in this direction of the Chinese, which can be used as a breakthrough direction for the counterattack of the reserves!"

As he spoke, the smile that Sokolovsky had just shown was once again swallowed up by the cold chill on his face, and the whole person turned to Ilyutin's side, and his tone became eager:

"Comrade Artillery Captain, it's been 6 minutes now, how long will it take you to figure it out!"

"It's a little close!" As soon as Sokolovsky's voice fell, Ilyutin did not put down the calculation in his hand, but replied without hesitation: "The Chinese artillery is very cunning, although they carry out a salvo attack, but they use different ballistics to strike, and the angle of the shells falling is not the same, so the calculation is more complicated than the ordinary ones!"

As soon as Ilyutin finished speaking, Sokolovsky's brows furrowed slightly, and just as he was about to say something, Ilyutin suddenly stood up from the table next to him, and then handed Sokolovsky a piece of paper full of calculations:

"Comrade Colonel, the results have been calculated, the point of impact is 25 km from their artillery positions, and 27 km from our 152mm artillery positions, and our range is just enough!"

"27 km!" Sokolovsky glanced at Ilyutin's calculations, nodded after a hurried glance, and then handed the piece of paper to the Vietnamese artillery commander beside him, and the language also changed from Russian to fluent Vietnamese:

"Follow the shooting points marked above, and you can launch a counterattack!"

"Yes!" After the artillery commander of the Vietnamese army finished speaking, he hurriedly ran to the combat post, and then the barrels of the 24 2A36 152mm cannons began to rise slowly, looking at the steel monster pointing to the sky, Sokolovsky's face showed a sneer:

"Chinese, the show is about to begin!"

Just when the Vietnamese army's 152mm artillery position was undergoing intense pre-war preparations, on the hidden hill opposite the original 122mm howitzer position of the Vietnamese army, Lu Weijun was nervously searching for something with the artillery mirror, but the dust and mud kicked up by the explosion of the shells on the opposite side blocked his vision.

When he found out that the Vietnamese army's 122mm howitzers had withdrawn from their positions, he immediately used radio to inform the rear positions, so our army's multi-shell firing stopped after only two rounds of firing, but even so, the front of the army was still dusty and muddy.

It stands to reason that Lu Weijun should lock on the Vietnamese army's 122mm howitzer group that has been withdrawn to the side, but in his mind, he feels that this incident is a little unusual, and then an ominous premonition begins to slowly come to his heart, although deep down he doesn't want something similar to happen.

But the subconscious told him that everything was possible, so he adjusted the multiplier of the artillery mirror to the maximum, and tried his best to observe in the distance, just at this time the dust gradually fell, and dozens of huge cannon barrels pointing to the northern hinterland flashed on the artillery mirror, Lu Weijun couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, and then shouted:

"Not good!"

Quickly copied the radio intercom next to him, and his throat, which had already been dry, issued words that were both nervous and urgent: "01, 01, I am 03, the enemy will carry out a fire attack on my position, the situation is urgent, please withdraw from the position immediately, repeat"

When Lu Weijun's slightly panicked words were quickly transmitted to the position of the post-independent artillery regiment through the radio, Qian Aimin had already commanded 12 Type 59 130mm cannons, left the first position that had just finished two rounds of multi-round firing at the same time, and galloped towards the second position two kilometers behind him!

"I really didn't expect us to think of going together with the Vietnamese monkeys!" Lu Jiadong, who looked at the speeding tractor and stood at the observation post in the center of the two positions, couldn't help rubbing his chin and said indifferently.

Liu Liang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help frowning when he heard Lu Jiadong's words, and looked at Lu Jiadong quite puzzled: "Section Chief Lu, how can you say that we think of being together with the Vietnamese monkeys? Also, it was fine just now, why do you have to withdraw from the front position in the blink of an eye?"

"For counter-artillery!"

"Anti-artillery?" Although Liu Liang said that he was a worker in a military factory, he had very little contact with high-powered weapons such as artillery after all, and he originally came to the Independent Artillery Regiment with Lu Jiadong, and he had heard about some artillery tactics, but he had been bedridden these days, and he knew even less about these things, so when Lu Jiadong said the word "counter-artillery", Liu Liang was very puzzled, and Lu Jiadong of course knew the situation, so he patted Liu Liang's shoulder, pointed to the first position that had long been empty, and explained:

"That's right, it's counter-artillery!"

It turned out that in order to deal with the threat of the Soviet 2S7 type 203mm long-range artillery mentioned in the intelligence, as early as the beginning of the war, the artillery command of the front headquarters began to formulate artillery and counter-battery programs, but limited to the equipment situation at that time, it could only come up with a set of artillery bayonet methods, to put it bluntly, regardless of sacrifices, shoot at close range, take advantage of the quantitative superiority of our army, and eliminate the quality superiority of the other side.

Of course, except for people like Ding Yonggang, no one in the front-line general command thought that this was a good method, and it was just a last resort under limited conditions, until Lu Jiadong showed the excellent long-range strike capability of the 130mm bottom-row grenade in front of everyone, and the set of firepower coverage with multiple bullets, whether it was the front-line general command or the front-line artillery commander, they all thought from the bottom of their hearts that this was what they dreamed of.

With this long fist in hand, the original set of tactics that had to be done as a last resort was naturally left far behind by the artillery commanders at all levels, so it did not take long for the artillery headquarters of the front-line headquarters to draw up a new version of the artillery and counter-battery action plan, which, after several revisions and improvements, formed the current set of combat plans, which was sent to the independent artillery regiment yesterday evening and put into practice.

Its purpose is to arrange two artillery positions in the front and rear within a certain distance, deploy a small number of troops in the front position, and use multiple shells to carry out intensive fire at the same time, creating the illusion of the main force of our artillery, and luring the enemy to open fire, and at this time our side quickly withdraws from the first position after rapid fire, and when the enemy's artillery shells fall to the empty position, our army will use observation equipment to determine the location of the local artillery group, and then use the long-range advantage of the bottom row of grenades to strike at the enemy's artillery position, so as to achieve the goal of eliminating the local artillery group.

At this time, when Lu Jiadong was training the artillery officers and soldiers, he proposed a mathematical formula for artillery positioning, which was the core calculation and analysis formula of the counter-artillery radar in later generations, but Lu Jiadong modified and improved it so that it could be applied to simple manpower calculations, and the value points were also reduced accordingly.

The formula is simple to calculate, the positioning is rapid, and the approximate position of the target can be determined in about 5 minutes; with this set of calculation formulas, the artillery units are even more like a treasure, and they have asked the observers of various units to learn and master it, but due to the urgency of time, there are few people who really learn to master and skillfully use it, and because of this, Lu Jiadong will arrange to be in this observation post between the first and second positions, so that he can use the formula to quickly calculate, and then quickly provide accurate positioning data for counterattack fire.

After listening to Lu Jiadong's words, Liu Liang nodded suddenly in understanding, while Lu Jiadong looked at the south-facing sky, shrank his pupils, and said as if talking to himself:

"The enemy and us almost thought of a piece in counter-battery tactics, and the next thing is to see who has the longer fist!"

As soon as Lu Jiadong's words fell, the roar of artillery shells breaking through the sky was heard, and the counterattack of Vietnamese artillery began
