Under the heavy artillery group, there is no enemy that cannot be destroyed, and if there is, it is that there are not enough heavy artillery!

There is no doubt that there are enough heavy artillery in the Southern Navy!

More than 50 years ago, the Daheng Army directly used the nine-pound artillery as an ordinary divisional field artillery, and there were many kinds of smoothbore heavy artillery.

In the past few decades, the feudal towns of Daheng have generally paid attention to artillery, and they all have a large group of artillery under their command.

The Yugoslav Navy also attaches great importance to artillery, and many high-ranking generals of the Yugoslav Navy are eager to directly equip their division-level units with 150-mm howitzers.

However, in consideration of the problems of mobility capability, logistical supply, and consumption, the Yugoslav Navy finally abandoned this plan and only equipped the divisional artillery regiment with 75 mm caliber field guns and howitzers.

But this does not mean that there are fewer heavy artillery in the South Navy!

At present, each army of the Yugoslav Navy has an independent field artillery regiment under its jurisdiction.

This is still a regular configuration!

When fighting, artillery brigades are often attached to the main fronts.

Two field artillery regiments under one artillery brigade!

The above-mentioned independent artillery regiments and artillery brigade units are equipped with 100-mm cannons, 120-mm howitzers, and 150-mm howitzers according to the needs of different tasks.

Among them, 150-mm light howitzers are the mainstay.

The generals of the Southern Navy, among the many artillery pieces currently equipped, have a soft spot for this 150-mm light howitzer!

The traveling weight of the gun is more than three tons, and the combat weight is more than two tons, which is completely within the bearing range of the artillery units of the South China Navy.

Although the firing range is closer, but through continuous improvement in the past two years, the effective firing range of the latest model of this gun has reached 4,500 meters.

The most important thing is that this 150 mm caliber gun is powerful enough!

This is the reason why the Southern Admirals have a soft spot for this artillery!

With a caliber of 150 millimeters, it is already the largest caliber field artillery equipped by the army at present, and there are only two train guns that are larger......

The caliber is large, the power is great, and the weight can barely be pulled out, which is the main reason why this artillery has become the favorite of the generals of the Southern Navy.

As for the range being a little closer, what is this, anyway, the enemy's artillery has a closer range......

Even if the first machine bureau of the Zisheng Army copied the steel rear-loading artillery before, but it has just been developed, and the technology is not yet mature, the South China Navy has tested these imitation 75 mm field guns that have been captured, and the ultimate effective firing range is only 5,000 meters.

The effective firing range of 4,500 meters is enough for the time being.

As for the enemy's artillery with a longer firing range, you are a decoration for the 100-mm cannon of the Southern Navy!

These 100-millimeter cannons have an effective firing range of 7,500 meters, because the firing range is too long, and many times they need to rely on many auxiliary means such as observation and guidance for enemy targets outside the visual range.

In order to guide these rear-loading guns to shoot at intermittent sights, the South China Navy often builds a wooden platform that is dozens of meters high at every turn on a certain high ground not far from the artillery position.

Sometimes it is deployed on the front line, and then relies on signal flag relay and other methods to carry out the most primitive battlefield long-distance real-time communication, and transmit data such as shooting elements back to the artillery position, so as to guide the artillery to carry out artillery bombardment.

Lin Ziran even specially instructed the Ordnance Department to lead the research and development of manned balloons for artillery units to observe and shoot.

The artillery units of the South China Navy are one of the two greatest strategic advantages of the South China Navy at present.

Cracking fire when an accident is not decided is the main operational thinking of the South China Navy in recent times!

In front of the heavy artillery group of the Southern Navy, it was almost impossible for the defenders of Quyang Prefecture to hold their defensive line.

Many of their defense lines outside the city, key nodes were conquered by the Southern Navy one by one, and while losing the defense line, they also lost a large number of personnel, weapons and equipment.

By the next day, more than half of the enemy's main defensive positions and tactical support points outside the city had been conquered by the South China Navy, and more than 5,000 casualties had been inflicted.

Before night fell the next day, the defense line outside the city that the defenders of Quyang Prefecture had painstakingly managed had all been lost!

The 150-millimeter heavy artillery group of the Southern Navy was already approaching the city, and it was deployed in front to start shelling the targets in the city.

At this time, if you look at it from the strategic perspective of the overall situation, in fact, the defense system of Grand City is already finished, and the outer defense line is all lost, leaving only a lonely urban area, which will not last long, because without the protection of the outer defense line, the entire urban area will be completely exposed to the heavy artillery fire of the Southern Navy.

Just like in the previous Battle of Chongke City, after the Zisheng Army lost Zhongyan Mountain, after losing Zhongyan Mountain, the Southern Navy outside the city did not take the initiative to launch a large-scale infantry attack at all, and just relied on artillery bombardment to kill thousands of defenders in the city, crushing the enemy's confidence in resistance.

This Grand City is far inferior to Chongke City in all aspects, and in the face of the heavy artillery bombardment of the Southern Navy, the defenders have nowhere to hide if they want to!

Perhaps knowing that the overall situation had gone, or that it was really about the reunification of Daheng, at midnight the next day after the outbreak of the Battle of Grand City, the defenders in the city took the initiative to send people out to discuss the surrender of Cheng.

At about two o'clock in the second half of the night, the two sides reached an agreement on the surrender of nearly 40,000 remnants of the defenders in the city!

The remaining nearly 40,000 defenders in the city declared that they were anyway, swore allegiance to Lin Ziran, and became a member of the Southern Navy.

Lin Ziran wanted to let these people surrender quickly and end the war in Quyang Prefecture as soon as possible, although according to the principle, these troops needed to be reorganized, and it was impossible to give those senior generals the power to continue to lead the original troops, but Lin Ziran still gave them a lot of benefits.

Officers, non-commissioned officers and non-commissioned officers who are willing to surrender can be retained, of course, they need to enter the military academy for accelerated training and then be distributed.

Above the secretary of state, the original lord is retained, and there is definitely no real power to lead the troops, but Lin Ziran is not stingy with idle posts, and what he can give is still given, which is enough for them to maintain their glory and wealth in the future, and after a period of testing period, it is also possible to re-lead the troops in the future.

Some of the many senior generals who surrendered to the South China Sea in the previous reunification war in Nanhai Prefecture had already served in the South China Navy, most of them held civilian positions in the headquarters, and some also held deputy positions in the field troops, and there were even a few senior generals who actually led the troops like brigade commanders.

As for the middle- and low-ranking officers, there are even more; after they have been trained in the military academy, as long as they pass the ideological course, most of them will be assigned to serve in the headquarters or various field units after graduating from the crash course.
