Chapter 912: Shelling

"Generally speaking, the range of howitzers is within 20 kilometers, so our field hospital, deployed in this col of 20 kilometers, is quite safe." The voice of the introduction came to my ears.

In later generations, even if it is a 122 mm howitzer, it can shoot 30 kilometers by firing a smoke exhaust bomb, while a 152 mm or 155 mm howitzer has a longer range, often more than 30 kilometers, or even more than 40 kilometers.

However, not yet, take the most powerful 152mm howitzers on both sides as an example, almost all of them are Soviet D-20 152mm cannon howitzers or imitations, and the longest range of this cannon is only 17 kilometers, which is not even as long as the range of the latest 122mm howitzer on our side.

Twenty kilometers away, it is considered a completely safe area.

After a few days of marching, the troops finally entered the front line, and on the hillside outside the border town, field tents were set up one by one, and a field hospital was erected.

If you are in the north, it is quite uncomfortable to live in a tent in winter, but now here, it is relatively warm all year round, and in order to avoid being attacked by the enemy, the field hospital here is also often transferred, so it is easier to use a field tent.

When I got off the bus, I saw such a field hospital, there were about twenty tents, forming a green jungle, and there were red crosses on the sides of the tents.

"Most of our wounded were injured by shelling." At this time, they were greeted by Lin Fajin, the commander of an infantry company on the periphery of the hospital, who was in charge of protection, and said: "Once you are injured, you will basically be disabled for life. ”

At present, the exchange of fire between the two sides mainly uses artillery, and once hit by a shell, even if it is not sacrificed on the spot, it is very common to be rescued and lose arms and legs.

"Many soldiers ran out of gas before they came out of the position, and in the future, with this ambulance on the battlefield, it would be good." Looking at their car with a red cross, Lin Fajin said.

No one in the hospital came out to greet them, because the doctors and nurses in the hospital were busy at this time.

Remember the URL

Of course, since this is a field hospital after all, the conditions are not particularly good, and it is generally here for emergency rescue, bandaging and rescue, and then it is sent to the rear hospital to recuperate.

Now, as a few people were talking, there was a sudden explosion in the distance, and the ground was shaking.

"Look, it's going to start again." Lin Fajin said.

"His grandmother's, it's too arrogant." Qin Zhenhua said: "Unfold our truck guns and give them a few rounds!" ”

The truck cannon that was urgently developed has already made a prototype cannon, and this time it came with the team, but it was not in their hands, and it had already continued to march towards the front line with Yu Sheng's troops.

"No, our artillery regiment will return fire soon."

Just as Lin Jinfa said, within a few minutes, sure enough, arcs were drawn in the sky, and the artillery positions on his side also began to fire back.

The battle on the entire border is almost like this, you go back and forth, the two sides shoot shells at each other, and occasionally pull out a hill.

In the air, there was a smell of gunsmoke, and the gaze on Qin Zhenhua's face became cold: "No, our reaction is too slow, in a few minutes, it is estimated that the artillery on the opposite side has shifted its position!" ”

Artillery shooting, the emphasis is on a fast, the speed of your own side is not fast enough, how to fight back against the opponent fiercely?

"It's not slowing anymore." Lin Jinfa said: "As long as the other side fires a cannon, the artillery observation post on our front line will determine the coordinates of the opponent's artillery and send it to our side, and then the artillery on our side will return fire." ”

Now, the most common method is used, the front line is arranged with a reconnaissance post, and the coordinates are manually calibrated!

Qin Zhenhua shook his head: "No, it's too slow!" It's too slow! We have to be able to return fire within 30 seconds after the opponent fires, so that the opponent can't run. ”

"Thirty seconds? How is this possible? Lin Jinfa asked strangely.

Their unit is dedicated to protecting the hospital and does not go to the front line, but they have been here for a long time, and they know the process, if they want to say that they can cover the past within thirty seconds, the other party will definitely not run, but how is this possible? Where is there such a fast?

"Hey, brother, I'm going to the artillery unit in front, this shouldn't be considered the front line, right?" Qin Zhenhua said to Lin Zhu on the side.

Lin Zhu frowned and shook his head again and again: "No, no, of course this won't work, your maintenance team is enough here, you can't move forward." ”

"We just get to the artillery unit, we don't run around." Qin Zhenhua said: "This truck cannon was delivered at the latest, and the artillery battalion to which our mechanized brigade belongs will not be proficient in operation, especially if there is equipment imported from Europe, the soldiers may not be proficient in operation, let's go up and help." ”

At this moment, suddenly, the ground continued to tremble, and the force of this tremor was much greater than just now.

At this time, it is impossible to see the situation on the battlefield in the distance from this side, and can only judge by the vibration coming from the ground.

"152mm howitzer!" Lin Jinfa's face suddenly changed: "This time, the enemy on the opposite side is real!" ”

In the past, you hit a few shots, and I hit a few shots, and it was enough, and everyone was considered to be courteous, but this time it seems that the situation is different!

The tremor from the ground told everyone that this time they were a massive shelling!

Although the range of the 122 mm gun and the 152 mm gun is about the same, both within 20 kilometers, the power of the shells of the two guns is different, the 152 mm gun grenade, the effective killing radius is not less than 50 meters, everyone within this radius will be directly shocked to death, and the body can not be found within more than 10 meters of the landing point. The total killing area is close to 8,000 square meters. Larger than a standard football field.

If it is hit on a fortification, it can directly destroy a meter thick concrete, if it is on the armor-piercing projectile that can penetrate more than 200 mm of steel plates, no matter how much the tank has armor protection hundreds of mm thick, and is directly hit by a 152 mm grenade, it is a death!

Lin Zhu gritted his teeth, knowing that the situation was not good at this time, and then, on the side of the hospital, a doctor had already run out: "Quick, quick, go to Touzhai, the village there has been hit." ”

Usually, hospitals here only receive the wounded and do not take the initiative to go out, but now, with only one exception, civilians are injured!
