Chapter 105 Artillery is indispensable for dealing with sea targets

There are three areas of land for Zhang Dashuai in Northeast China to be leased by the Xinjiang National Defense Forces, which are:

(1) Hunchun City, the only sea outlet in eastern China facing the Sea of Japan;

(2) Fuyuan City, the easternmost region of China;

(3) the Heihe region of Heilongjiang Province, China;

You can see the strategic layout of Governor Zhang! These three regions are key strategic points for clearing the Outer Northeast.

Hunchun is located in the lower reaches of the Tumen River in the eastern part of Jilin Province, the easternmost city in Jilin Province, and the only border city in China located at the junction of China, Russia and North Korea.

Hunchun is next to Vladivostok, the second largest city in the Russian Far East (called Vladivostok in Russian)

That is to say, starting from Hunchun, as long as the Wehrmacht sweeps all the way east and north along the coastline, it will be able to sweep away all the Russian invaders in the outer northeast, and there is no danger that there will be fish that slip through the net!

It's like cleaning a house, you can't just sweep the house all over the house, right?

You always have to find a baseline to start cleaning, and then sweep outside the door, in the same way, the cleaning baseline in the outer northeast is the coastline east of Hunchun.

Fuyuan City is located in the triangle where the Heilongjiang River and the Ussuri River meet. It is the easternmost region of China. It is only separated from Russia by a river (Heilongjiang).

Fuyuan is only 65 kilometers away from the waterway of the largest city in the Russian Far East - [Boli] (called in Russian, Khabarovsk).

On the map, it is like a wedge inserted into the Outer Northeast region, which occupies a very important strategic position in terms of geographical location.

Heihe City is across the river from the third largest city in the Russian Far East - Hailan Pao (known in Russian, Blagoveshchensk), with the nearest distance of only 750 meters.

I can see the sinister intentions arranged by the second master! These three cities can no longer be called "cities", they can now only be called the main gathering places of troops and immigrants in the Russian Far East.

The reason why Russia had concentrated its troops and immigrants in these three regions was because there were almost no large human settlements to the east or north, and it was a vast and sparsely populated area that made it difficult for individual humans to survive.

There is hardly any human production here (at this stage), and if you want to survive in this land for a long time, you can only live by fishing and hunting!

Hunting? The 100-square-kilometer fishing and hunting area is barely enough to feed tens of thousands of people. Do you want to try hundreds of thousands? I can't starve you!

In addition, in terms of the warmth and anti-freeze technology of the 20th century, a large area of land in the outer northeast was not suitable for human habitation during the 7 or 8 months of frost period.

It is barely inhabited, and without the support of modern industrial electricity supply and heating, it will be a long and unbearable winter.

Therefore, the Russians are not stupid, and the reason why they arranged heavy troops and immigrants near the Chinese border is to get supplies from Northeast China nearby.

After all, collecting supplies from parts of Russia and transporting them to the Far East by rail was not only extremely long, but also costly, and unaffordable for the Russian government.

The second master was well aware of Russia's troop deployment in the Far East, and he was also more aware of the operational conditions in the Far East. Therefore, this cargo did not need to be reconnoitred at all, and the troops were deployed in the above areas.

Just wait for the chaos in Russia and the beginning of spring next year! Now "everything is ready, only the spring breeze is owed"!

Geographically speaking, Fuyuan, Hunchun, and Heihe echo each other from afar, and in addition to the troops deployed in the northern part of Outer Mongolia, they have formed a favorable situation in the northeast of the Outer Northeast, which is to pinch the head and remove the tail, and blossom in the middle.

As long as the Xinjiang National Defense Forces dare to fight, the Russian army will not escape the fate of annihilation even if it uses all its resources to avoid the fate of annihilation in this situation where foreign aid is pinched and there is no supply!

As for the Russian Far Eastern diaspora, there is no second way except the fate of being slaughtered, this is their fate!

Because the consistent style of the Xinjiang Governor's Office is to slaughter villages and destroy households. They can deal with the unsubject people in the country, let alone the invaders!

Escape? Flee back to Russia? Hehe! ~~~ You are very naïve, and before you can go out of the Outer Northeast, you will enter the winter of the Northern Hemisphere. In the absence of train transport, you try it on foot? You can't even ride a horse! Not to mention the walking!

Because the Far East Siberian region is too big.

Winter temperatures in the Outer Northeast are -40°C.

In the wild at minus 40°C, you will die wherever you go! ~~~~~~

Manzhouli Xinjiang National Defense Forces Temporary Station~~~

"Commander! This Zhang Dashuai is too ruthless, three barracks rented land, and collected 2.1 million oceans from us! How could the Metropolitan Governor promise him? ”

In the temporary headquarters of the Third Group Army in Xinjiang, the operational staff officers were somewhat unconvinced.

And what makes these operational staff officers even more puzzled is that the Metropolitan Governor also rented a 7-month use period, which is money and nowhere to spend?

Does it take that long to fight Russian foreign devils?

The Third Army made great achievements in the border areas of Outer Mongolia. In the war against Russia, it was really devastating, and the Russian army was holding its head and running away!

Because of this, I raised this group of proud soldiers!

They have always been fighting against foreign countries. This time, he was arranged by the Metropolitan Governor to the outer northeast border, and these staff officers naturally guessed that this time it was still a foreign war!

But what does it mean that the Metropolitan Governor has rented the camp for seven months?

Don't the Metropolitan Governors believe in their combat effectiveness?~~~

For a time, the dispatch of the entire 40 divisions in Xinjiang was full of discussions! These are iron-blooded soldiers who have never suffered defeat!

The point is that they have always fought against foreign countries, they fought foreign devils, and they won the battle!

Where will you still look at the bandit leaders of the three eastern provinces?

For the Metropolitan Governor's forbearance and concession to Zhang Dashuai, these commanders and fighters of the National Defense Force were not convinced! With these arrogant soldiers, how can the Metropolitan Governor swallow his anger!

This is simply a shame for the Xinjiang National Defense Forces!

How did they know that Second Master Zhang had no intention of going to war this year at all. When the revolution began in October, the Outer Northeast also entered winter, and the war started in the winter in the Outer Northeast?

Joke! He's not that crazy yet!

In the winter in the Outer Northeast, even the bolt of the gun can be frozen, and you still have a fart! You don't want your fingers anymore, do you?

So if you want to start a war, you have to wait until April next year.

"Don't worry about what you shouldn't have! The transportation of the troops has been arranged, right? ”

"The transportation has been arranged, we have our own convoy, even if there is no Zhang Dashuai train transportation, we can also arrive at the assembly place on time."

The operational staff officers are proud of the logistics system of the Xinjiang Governor's Office.

The logistical supply of the Xinjiang Governor's Office has never held back the troops. This is also the reason why he and Zhang Dadu strongly encouraged Ford to establish an automobile production plant in Xinjiang.

What's more, now Xinjiang's No. 1 Tractor Factory, No. 1 Automobile Factory, No. 1 Locomotive Factory, and No. 1 Machinery Factory have all been built and put into use, and Xinjiang has no shortage of means of transportation at all.

There is no problem with the supply of oil in the second master's space for two years. Two years later, it is believed that Xinjiang's own oil fields will also be productive.

"The Governor's Office has equipped all divisions with mortars and 76mm cannons. In addition, the garrison in the Hunchun area was specially equipped with 20 ultra-long-range 130-mm cannons. Why only assemble new guns for Hunchun? ”

The combat staff officer asked incomprehensibly.

They don't understand! In today's military world, everyone thinks that the farther artillery hits, the better. But the second master understands that they are all wrong!

These 20 Type 59-1 130-mm cannons from the period of New China were also produced to deal with sea targets.

It is not at all within the second master's plan to equip the troops.

This time it was not possible to be attacked by Russian warships in Vladivostok, considering that the Wehrmacht had no effective means of suppressing ultra-long-range sea targets.

The second goods will not come up with this artillery that will be eliminated sooner or later!

The Type 59-1 130mm cannon was successfully copied in 1959 by the 127 Factory (Qiqihar Peace Factory) of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry of New China based on the Soviet M-46 cannon.

The Soviet-made M46 130 mm cannon is a very tenacious artillery, which came out in 1954, and it has the advantages of long range, high hitting accuracy, high lethal power, reliable mechanical performance, low failure rate, and direct anti-armor combat.

In 1959, New China improved the gun on its own, and developed a better and lighter Type 59-1 130 mm cannon, the total weight of the gun body was reduced from 8.5 tons to 6.3 tons, the rate of fire was increased to 8-10 rounds / min, and the firing range was extended to 27 kilometers.

With such an excellent artillery, why didn't his second master equip the troops? Isn't it also solved now?

Hehe~~~ How effective the artillery is, it depends on the comprehensive performance, not just the range.

First of all, the Type 59-1 130mm cannon is a high-pressure gun, and its barrel life is only about 800 rounds. And the low-pressure howitzer using the same new type of cannon steel will have a barrel life of more than 4,000 shells!

What is the concept of 4000 rounds? That is, from the time it leaves the factory, until it is decommissioned, there is no need to replace the barrel!

(Free chapter, I want to say a few more words.) The problem of soldiers, when it comes to military equipment, there is always endless words! The following can be seen or not. )

First of all, I will give you a general knowledge: the difference between cannons and howitzers and howitzers.

(1) Cannon, cannon barrel length, usually more than 40 times the caliber. To put it simply, the slender barrel is a cannon, such as various naval guns, anti-aircraft guns, tank guns, and Li Yunlong's Italian guns, all of which are cannons. Hehe~~~

Advantages, its long range and straight trajectory make it an advantageous weapon against tanks and fortresses in the air, at sea, and on land.

Cons, too, a lot, it is powerless against trenches of concealed targets and anticlines of mountains. In addition, it has a lot of blind spots, such as a cannon with a range of 30 kilometers, and for many targets within 30 kilometers, it can only stare dryly or retreat to open up the distance.

(2) Howitzer, contrary to the cannon, the howitzer barrel and caliber are relatively small, generally shorter than the cannon, usually its body barrel is 20-30 times the caliber. The short barrel is a howitzer, and the most typical is a mortar.

Advantages, howitzer ballistics are curved, suitable for shooting hidden targets or large-area targets; For example, soldiers in trenches, targets on the anticline of mountains, etc.

By adjusting the angle of fire, it has very few blind spots for shooting. That's remarkable, the howitzer can attack surface targets and areas out of sight, and the anti-personnel blast is the most powerful.

Disadvantages, short range, for stormed targets, such as tanks, fortress concrete fortifications, he is very helpless.

(3) Plus howitzer, as the name suggests, it is a combination of a cannon and a howitzer.

It can achieve flat or curved fire according to different shells of the charge, so it is the direction of future artillery development.

After so much verbosity, there may still be many people who don't understand. To summarize it simply:

Howitzers are called howitzers that use indirect aiming as the main combat style, while those that mainly aim directly are called cannons.

But this distinction is not very clear, so let's simplify it a little more, you just need to remember that in modern artillery there is no distinction between plus and grenade at all, there is only one type of multifunctional artillery - plus howitzer!

Haha~~~ The word water is cool! Super cool! It's better than doing anything~ It's cool! Quack!
