Chapter 118: Devil's Stronghold
"Commander, when I came, I passed through the devil's Baijin Railway, and the devil's defense was very strong."
"The devils have built strong strongholds near towns, stations, and tunnels along the railway, and each stronghold is defended by dozens of devils. At the same time, there are armored trains on the railways for patrolling. There are outlying strongholds in important geographical locations of 10 to 15 kilometers on both sides of the railway. ”
"It can be said that the devil's protection of the railway has been done to the extreme, unless we can solve these defensive devils in a short time, otherwise relying on the defense of the stronghold, a large number of devils will soon come and launch a fierce counterattack against us!" Zhao Gang said the information he had learned, and his expression was quite solemn.
Li Yunlong looked at Zhao Gang with some surprise, he didn't expect the information Zhao Gang had collected to be so comprehensive, and some of the information was something he hadn't even noticed. Li Yunlong knew that the devil's defense of the railway was very tight, but he didn't expect it to be so tight.
Thinking that the independent regiment had to face such a tight defense of devils, Li Yunlong felt a little headache, such devils were quite difficult to deal with. What bothered Li Yunlong the most was that he didn't know if the Type 92 infantry gun in his hand could break through the devil's stronghold. If you want to defend in such an important place, the devil will definitely choose to build a stronghold with cement bricks, and if you want to break through such a stronghold, you don't have enough firepower, but it is difficult to do it.
"Genzi, do you think our regiment's Type 92 infantry cannon can be useful against the devil's stronghold?" Looking at Liu Gen, Li Yunlong couldn't help but ask.
Liu Gen frowned, if the stronghold built by the devil was too strong, then the Type 92 infantry cannon might not be able to have much effect on the devil's stronghold. After thinking for a moment, Liu Gen thought of a solution, with his artillery attack technology, he may not be able to threaten the devil's stronghold.
"I can push the Type 92 infantry gun closer, as long as I can reach a range of 500 meters from the devil's stronghold, I can be sure that the high-explosive shells of the Type 92 infantry gun will be sent into the devil's stronghold! One may not be able to solve the devils, but two high-explosive shells explode inside the devil's stronghold, which can remove most of the devils in the stronghold. Silent for a while, Liu Gen opened his mouth and said in a deep voice.
This is the only way Liu Gen can think of, the stronghold built by the devil will inevitably be much stronger than the one established by the puppet army. Liu Gen still needs to wait until the independent regiment arrives at the designated position before he can observe it clearly.
"Five hundred meters? Simple! I thought it would be so difficult! Da Biao, how's it going? Is it difficult? Li Yunlong laughed, the distance of five hundred meters was very easy.
Without such a powerful artillery as Liu Gen, if the independent regiment wants to solve the stronghold built by the devils, it undoubtedly needs to let the soldiers fill it with their lives, and it needs the soldiers to attack frantically, so that the devils in the stronghold can be killed! Well, now, with Liu Gen's existence, he may really be able to kill the devils in the stronghold more easily than before!
"Genzi, can you really do it? Do you know that whether you can do it or not can be a matter of life and death for many soldiers! Looking at Liu Gen, Zhao Gang couldn't help but ask.
Under Zhao Gang's gaze, Liu Gen nodded extremely seriously, he was not sure of the distance that was too far, but he was still sure of the range of five hundred meters. Liu Gen found that he seemed to need to further upgrade his ranging skills, facing the devil's stronghold, having enough accurate ranging skills would undoubtedly help Liu Gen better hit the shooting hole of the devil's stronghold with a cannonball!
I secretly made a decision in my heart, and when I have skill points again, I must upgrade my ranging skills again. Liu Gen can think that he will definitely have a lot of opportunities to face the devil's stronghold in the future, and enough accurate ranging can help Liu Gen better win the devil's stronghold!
"Political Commissar Zhao, I am sure, I am absolutely sure to hit within 500 meters!" Faced with Zhao Gang's suspicions, Liu Gen said with great confidence.
Speaking of shooting, Liu Gen doesn't have so much confidence, his shooting skills have only reached the level of ordinary fighters after a period of training, and compared with Zhang Dabiao and them, they are still much worse. But when it comes to artillery, in the independent regiment, Liu Gen said that he was the second, so no one dared to say that he was the first. With a cannon in his hand, no matter how many devils come, Liu Gen is not afraid, he has strong enough confidence in his artillery technology.
"That's good! Later, I will report to the brigade commander and ask the brigade commander for more shells to avoid running out of shells. Zhao Gang opened his mouth and said in a deep voice.
Zhao Gang chose to ask Liu Gen if he was sure enough, also to confirm that he knew how many high-explosive shells the Type 92 infantry guns had in the Independent Regiment. What can twenty high-explosive shells do? I'm afraid it won't be long, since Liu Gen has such confidence in himself, then Zhao Gang doesn't mind applying to the brigade commander for more shells for Liu Gen to use.
"Political Commissar Zhao, you did a good job this time, a good gunner like Genzi, we have to give enough trust." Watching Liu Gen leave, Li Yunlong opened his mouth and praised.
Back in the artillery company, Liu Gen's expression was a little solemn, and he made a package ticket in front of Li Yunlong and others, if he had any problems in the battle, it would be bad. Liu Gen didn't want to let what he said become empty words. Looking at the Type 92 infantry guns and three 81mm mortars carried by the soldiers of the artillery company, Liu Gen thought about it seriously.
If you want to deal with the devil's stronghold, the mortar will not be too useful, so the Type 92 infantry gun can be used as a cannon when firing horizontally, and it can be used to deal with the devil's stronghold. And most importantly, the Type 92 infantry gun is concealed enough, and after removing the protective shield, it is only 50 centimeters high, almost the same height as a heavy machine gun, and it is not easy to be detected by devils.
The 81mm mortar is good, but it is too easy to be spotted by the devils and cannot get close to the devils' stronghold. What's more, when the 81mm mortar is shelled, it will be a parabola, and if you want to hit the devil's stronghold with the mortar, Liu Gen is not sure enough.
In the evening of the next day, the independent regiment finally arrived at the designated position, and as soon as it arrived at the designated position, Liu Gen took several soldiers of the artillery company to observe. And after observing the devil's stronghold, Liu Gen's face was ugly, and he found that the devil's stronghold was indeed made of cement. The devil's stronghold looks very strong, looking at such a devil's stronghold, Liu Gen can be sure that the shells in the hands of the artillery company can't pose much threat to the devil's stronghold.
"Roots, how's it going? Can our regiment's artillery pose a threat to the devil's stronghold? Li Yunlong saw Liu Gen coming back with the soldiers, and asked with some concern.
Through the telescope in his hand, Li Yunlong also saw the stronghold of the devil, and knew that the stronghold of the devil was not simple, but he still wanted to ask Liu Gen, the commander of the artillery company, for his opinion. Just looking at Liu Gen's expression, Li Yunlong didn't have much hope, if the artillery of the artillery company could work on the devil's stronghold, then Liu Gen wouldn't be like this.
"Commander, you have to be mentally prepared, our artillery may not be able to pose much of a threat to the stronghold of the devils." Liu Gen's face was ugly, and it seemed that there was only one way, and that was to shoot the cannonballs into the devil's stronghold!
