Chapter Ninety-Five: The Longest Range
Ding Yonggang looked at the slowly rising barrel, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, this Lu Jiadong seemed to be really in a hurry, and even asked to use a full charge, the maximum range to hit this bullet, he didn't want to think about it, the previous two rounds didn't have any effect, this full charge, the maximum range is difficult to achieve so that the cannonball can be equipped with wings?
"Lu Jiadong is still too young!"
Thinking about it, Ding Yonggang, who was clasping his hands around his chest, couldn't help muttering, but then his brows furrowed, how could such a young Lu Jiadong fool Wang Chuanchen of the General Staff Armament Department, this old Wang won't be more and more alive, thinking of this, the corners of Ding Yonggang's mouth couldn't help but tilt slightly, looking at the Type 59 130mm cannon that was adjusting the firing angle, and said meaningfully:
"There's a good show to watch this time!"
The same words also echoed in the artillery observation post more than ten kilometers away from the artillery position, just as the tone of this sentence gradually fell, an artillery calculation soldier beside Lu Weijun said with a smile while measuring on the special map with a measuring tool:
"Staff Officer Lu, you're right, we're going to really have a good show!"
"Hmph! What is long-range ammunition!" Listening to the words of the calculation soldier next to him, Lu Weijun raised his head from behind the artillery mirror, with a subtle sneer on the corner of his mouth: "To put it bluntly, it is to far exceed the range of the existing artillery shells in each charge state, that is the long-range ammunition, whether it is a howitzer or a cannon, if you can't even figure out what long-range grenades are engaged in, it can only make people laugh and laugh at the joke in vain!"
"Staff Officer Lu has a point!" As soon as Lu Weijun's voice fell, another soldier picked up the words: "This Lu Jiadong is also right, he has done a good job with the light weapons of the infantry, and he has to get any long-range grenades, but now it's good, he can't lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot!"
"It's okay to smash it, a conceited person like this should be sober, so as not to know the theory of weaponism all day long!" As soon as the soldiers next to him spoke, Lu Weijun once again aimed his eyes at the artillery mirror, and adjusted the ruler on the artillery mirror as he spoke:
"Okay, let's get down to business first, the maximum range of the Type 59 130mm cannon is 27 kilometers, let's calculate it according to this scale, target 108" The computing soldier standing next to Lu Weijun took out a small notebook at this time and wrote down the data in his mouth one by one
is different from Ding Yonggang and Lu Weijun who are in the mood of watching the play, but Wang Chuanchen on the side of the observation platform at this time keeps complaining about Lu Jiadong:
"Xiao Lu, you are too reckless, why do you dare to make a military order? This bottom row grenade doesn't look like it's a full-range ammunition."
"Originally, I didn't say that our bottom row grenade is a full-drug long-range grenade!" Before Wang Chuanchen finished speaking, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Jiadong's mouth, and then he looked at Wang Chuanchen who was full of doubts and continued:
"Director Wang, do you remember Lao Yang's calculation data on the muzzle velocity of the bottom row bomb in our factory?"
"Lao Yang?muzzle velocity data?" Before Wang Chuanchen could react, Liu Liang's eyes next to him couldn't help but light up: "Did Section Chief Lu say just now?"
Liu Liang's words were not finished, but Lu Jiadong once again showed a confident smile and nodded: "Don't worry, after this bullet is fired, it is estimated that even we will be surprised!"
After listening to Lu Jiadong's words, Wang Chuanchen did not reduce his worries for a moment, and in the face of the adjusted gun position, he could only say helplessly:
"I hope so!"
"Target No. 108, full charge, bottom row grenade instantaneous delay fuse, 0-04 to the right, one shot, one shot, release!" As soon as Wang Chuanchen's voice fell, Lu Weijun's target command resounded through the loudspeaker through the artillery position, Qian Aimin immediately raised the red flag in his hand, and the soldier who operated the artillery filled the bottom row grenade and the full charge bag into the gun chamber in the blink of an eye
"Put!"
"Boom~~" With Qian Aimin's order, the Type 59 130mm cannon once again let out an earth-shattering roar, and a 130mm bottom-row grenade gushed out of the muzzle of the gun at a 45-degree angle and in the form of a full charge, leaving a burst of intense fireworks, breaking through the air at an unprecedented speed
The moment the shell flew out of the muzzle, Ding Yonggang, who was sitting on the side of the artillery position directing the radio station, couldn't help but stare in his eyes, and then his pupils shrank, he quickly raised his hand and rubbed his eyes vigorously, but when he looked up again, the smoke and dust at the muzzle of the gun had gradually dispersed:
"How could this bullet be"
Ding Yonggang's mouth couldn't help muttering lightly, and his face became a little unusual, he was an old artilleryman, because of this, he had already trained a pair of fiery eyes, as long as he glanced at the angle of the artillery, the strength of the recoil of the brake, and the smoke and dust of the muzzle, he could preliminarily judge the distance of this cannonball.
Although there is no problem with the angle of the artillery just fired, and the recoil strength of the brake is also within the normal range, the smoke and dust from the muzzle of the cannon is slightly different from the previous maximum range, and this difference may not make any difference in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of an old artilleryman like Ding Yonggang, it means that the range of artillery strikes is far and near.
However, this difference was only a short moment, although Ding Yonggang felt it, he was not sure, when he rubbed his eyes and wanted to see it clearly, the smoke and dust from the muzzle of the cannon had already dissipated with the wind.
"Impossible, it must be that I feel wrong, yes, I must feel wrong!" Seeing the disappeared smoke and dust, Ding Yonggang couldn't help but comfort himself, but no matter how he persuaded himself, the heart in his chest that had been calm for a long time was always beating hard, and an ominous premonition was like a virus, starting from his heart, instantly eroding his heart, and his entire body was captured in the blink of an eye!
So, he couldn't sit still any longer, picked up the walkie-talkie on the table, and shouted eagerly to the artillery observation post in the distance: "03, 03, I'm 01, you can report when the shell hits the ground, repeat, you can report it when the shell hits the ground!"
"03 understood!" Hearing Ding Yonggang's call, Lu Weijun hurriedly replied into the walkie-talkie, then put down the radio and instructed the soldiers in the artillery observation post:
"I'm all looking wide, the shells have been fired!"
"Don't worry, Staff Officer Lu, this bullet can't escape our eyes!" As soon as Lu Weijun's words fell, a soldier who was holding a telescope to observe responded with a smile: "But then again, why is the chief of staff's tone so anxious this time?"
"I don't understand this, let's finish the report early and end it early, for these cannonballs that have been changed and have not been changed, that leader is willing to spend it here!" Lu Weijun glanced at the soldier who spoke, and then glanced at the people in the observation post again, and his tone became stern:
"This bomb is a little more than 27 kilometers at best, and it will never exceed 28 kilometers, and everyone is focused on the 108 target at 27 kilometers and understands"
As soon as Lu Weijun said the word "Ming", and before he said the word "white", he heard the sound of "buzz~~~buzz~~~" in mid-air, and Lu Weijun was also an old artilleryman, and when he heard it, he knew that it was the sound of a cannonball, so he hurriedly shouted:
"It's coming!"
They put their eyes on the artillery mirror, and the other soldiers at the observation post also raised their binoculars one after another, and several people supported the observation and sighting equipment, pointing forward in unison, but although they observed different personnel, their sights converged on the same place, that is, the No. 108 target at 27 kilometers
Lu Weijun and his observation post reacted quickly when they heard the sound of the cannonballs flying through the air, but no matter how fast they were, they couldn't be as fast as the cannonballs that broke through the air, just when Lu Weijun and the others just raised the long guns and short cannons in their hands and focused on the No. 108 target, suddenly there was a loud sound of "boom~~" in their ears.
The eardrums of the observation post inland Weijun couldn't help but compress sharply, and the sound of the artillery bombing was completely received into his brain, and Lu Weijun's eyes attached to the artillery team mirror also opened widely, trying his best to search for the smoke and dust raised by the explosion, but the smoke and dust he was expecting never appeared in his sight!
"How is it possible, how can I not see the explosion when I hear it"
"Staff Officer Lu, look, target 112!" Without waiting for Lu Weijun to finish his self-talk, the soldier next to him shouted to Lu Weijun with an incredible tone, Lu Weijun heard the soldier's words, and quickly adjusted the artillery mirror to an angle, aimed at the No. 112 target, and then quickly expanded the multiple, and soon in the direction of the No. 112 target, a rising cloud of very colored gas mixed with the surrounding chaotic debris, rising
"How is this possible?" Looking at the smoke and dust from the explosion, Lu Weijun's eyes were wide open, and his mouth was so long that he could stuff it into a fist!
"Target No. 112 is nearly 38 kilometers away from our artillery position! Staff Officer Lu, are you sure that the position behind us is a Type 59 130mm cannon?" When Lu Weijun was surprised, the soldier who told him just now also had an incredible look.
Listening to the soldier's words, Lu Weijun first nodded, then shook his head, and then nodded again, but no matter how he nodded and shook his head, he never gave a clear answer, because even he didn't know why this bomb flew so far.
At this moment, Ding Yonggang's eager inquiry came from the communication radio again, and when he heard the inquiry on the position, Lu Weijun was a little sober, but even so, his brain was still blank, so that when he picked up the walkie-talkie to report, his tone seemed to be both monolithic and mechanical, lifeless:
"The impact point, target No. 112, the preliminary estimate is nearly 38 kilometers!"
When everyone at the scene heard Lu Weijun's stereotyped voice through the loudspeaker, everyone at the scene showed excited looks, and the chief commander sitting in the center of the observation platform stood up from the table and looked at the artillery opposite excitedly:
"Nearly 38 kilometers, this cannon is well hit!"
ps: This cannon is finally out.,Yuzu is also relieved.,**It's a technical job.,Everyone knows this.,The prelude or something has to be a little bit.,Otherwise, it's going to be harmonized again.,Hehe,Thank you again for your care and support.,Yuzu is grateful!
