Chapter 672: Artillery Strikes (First Update!) )
As soon as Aoki Osa walked into the war room with his front foot, the leader of the reconnaissance team followed him with his hind foot!
He is a henchman who has been following him, and Aoki only needs to take a look, and from the expression on his face, he can tell whether the disappearance brought by his subordinates is good or bad!
Seeing his serious face and nervous expression, Aoki's heart jumped, and a very bad premonition appeared in his mind, and he immediately asked the question just now!
"Have you found out: how many people have been killed by the garrison? How's the equipment? Are there any heavy weapons, especially secret weapons that we haven't seen before, have they appeared! ”
The squad leader didn't dare to hide it, and replied stubbornly: "The total strength must be more than two thousand!" ”
"They also brought a large number of mountain artillery, and the firepower is very strong!"
"Because it was too dark, our scouts didn't dare to get too close, and they didn't find any secret weapons for the time being!"
Aoki Daisa's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said to himself: "There are more than 2,000 people, and they are also equipped with a large number of mountain artillery, could it be that the whole garrison regiment has been dispatched and wants to eat us in one bite tonight?" ”
"I can't rule out this possibility: they can eat three of us in one night, and they can definitely eat us in one night!"
"Give orders to all troops immediately, the garrison regiment is coming, and the troops must strengthen their vigilance and prepare for battle!"
"If there is any situation, you must report it to the headquarters as soon as possible!"
"The county garrison is divided into two, half defends the county seat, and the other half acts as a mobile force to reinforce the battlefield at any time!"
"We are equipped with radio stations in our four strongholds outside the city, and we also have telephone lines, no matter what method the headquarters passes, we must ensure that the contact is smooth and cannot be interrupted, I want to understand the battle situation anytime and anywhere, and then decide whether to send troops to reinforce the battlefield!"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
As soon as the order was given, an explosion sounded, coming from the east of the county seat!
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Before everyone could react from the shock, another series of explosions reached everyone's ears, and the sound came from the south of the county!
"Sir, the garrison has started to attack, and when it comes up, it will use mortars, and it won't even attack tentatively, it must want to kill us tonight!" The adjutant reminded!
Aoki Osa didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered with a serious face: "Start fighting!" ”
"Everyone performs their duties, resolutely repel the attack of the garrison regiment, and defend Lingqiu City!"
"Hey......" more than a dozen subordinates shouted in unison!
The war room, which had been quiet just now, immediately became lively, and the atmosphere became more and more tense because of the rumbling of artillery outside the city!
"Jingle Bell ......"
The phone rang suddenly in the war room, very harsh!
The staff officer quickly picked up the microphone, and Aoki Osa was not idle, his eyes were glued to him, wanting to know the content of the call as soon as possible!
"Sir, the stronghold outside the East Gate reports that they are under heavy attack!"
"The Eighth Route Army used mountain artillery, mortars, and a large number of grenadiers and heavy machine guns, and the fire was very fierce!"
"Did they discover the secret weapon that the garrison was equipped with?" This is what Aoki Daisa is most worried about, and he immediately asked!
What exactly is the secret weapon, no one knows!
But its power has spread among the army!
As soon as a large area is exploded, with the impact point as the center, the soldiers within a radius of 20 meters will definitely die, and the soldiers within 30 meters will either be killed or injured!
It is precisely because I thought of the existence of this secret weapon that I carried out the orders of the military department so thoroughly!
Build fortifications outside the stronghold and scatter the troops in the fortifications!
If the troops are all concentrated in the stronghold, and the garrison regiment uses secret weapons on the battlefield, it only takes a few shells, and the stronghold garrison will be killed in one pot and die in vain!
The staff officer shook his head and replied, "Not for the time being!" ”
"The Eighth Route Army only used mountain artillery, mortars, grenadiers and heavy machine guns!"
Hearing this, Aoki's tense nerves relaxed instead, and he replied with a long breath: "If they only use conventional weapons and don't use secret weapons, I believe that the garrison outside the city will definitely be able to hold their positions!" ”
"Removing the gap in equipment, the training level and combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army will definitely far exceed that of the Eighth Route Army, and I have absolute confidence in this!"
"Jingle Bell ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang again, and it was two telephones moving at the same time!
"Sir, the stronghold south of the city is under fierce attack by the garrison regiment's mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and mortars!"
"Sir, the stronghold in the east of the city reported that the garrison regiment concentrated artillery fire and forces to attack one point on them, because the troops were too scattered, and there were already many defensive holes in the first ring fortification, and the defensive pressure of the troops was too great. They asked for reinforcements, or contracted their defenses, and took the initiative to abandon one or two lines of defense and concentrate their forces to defend the third line of defense! ”
"No way!" Aoki Osa refused without hesitation!
"This must be a conspiracy of the garrison!"
"The lethality of their secret weapon is too great, and it has not come forward, it must be waiting for a deadly attack on us at a critical moment!"
"Once we shrink our defenses and concentrate our forces together, we will be fooled!"
"They will take advantage of the opportunity to use secret weapons, use secret weapons to kill and injure a large number of our troops gathered together, and kill them!"
"The troops are the foundation of our position, and once the troops are gone, it will be over!"
"Hey, give them orders right away!" The staff officer hurried to receive the order!
Pick up the microphone and start relaying Aoki Daisa's order just now!
Aoki Osa was not idle, turned his head and ordered to the adjutant beside him: "Dispatch a mixed squadron from the city and immediately reinforce the stronghold in the east of the city to prevent accidents!" ”
"Besides, don't we have two more squadrons of mountain artillery and two squadrons of infantry artillery?"
"Hurry up and contact them, lock on the artillery position of the garrison regiment outside the city, and immediately carry out an artillery counterattack to reduce the defensive pressure of the garrison in the stronghold!"
Yuan Qingfeng is now a veritable rich man!
Looking at the entire Eighth Route Army, no artillery battalion commander has been so arrogant as him!
Four artillery batteries, a full twenty-four mountain guns and infantry guns!
Of course, for Yuan Qingfeng himself, Lingqiu broke through the siege and turned to Datong...... A series of battles not only allowed him to harvest a large number of artillery and become a rich man, but also allowed him to learn a lot of tactical tactics related to artillery and accumulate a lot of experience in artillery warfare!
In half a year, he grew directly from an old gunner who only knew how to shoot artillery to a qualified artillery commander!
Before the troops attacked, he already knew that his opponent had two mountain artillery squadrons with eight mountain guns and two infantry artillery squads with four mortars!
So he didn't do his best in front of the troops' attack!
Draw out the infantry artillery company with a limited range and divide it into two, reinforcing the independent battalion and the special service battalion respectively!
The remaining three mountain artillery companies did not move, waiting for the devil artillery to show up!
"Woooooooooo......oo Boom Boom Boom ......"
The scream of the shells across the sky finally sounded in the city, getting closer and closer to themselves, and finally smashed into the artillery position of the independent battalion and exploded!
"There are a total of eight mountain guns and four infantry guns, and the little devil can get our artillery to fire all of them!" Yuan Qingfeng shouted excitedly, and then began to give orders!
"Immediately calculate the specific location of the devil's artillery position, and each artillery company is ready for battle!"
"As soon as the shooting comes out, we will immediately fire a counterattack!"
As soon as the order was issued, the three artillery staff officers began to get busy, observing the data with the artillery scope and calculating at the same time, although they were busy, but they were orderly in the chaos!
Seeing this scene in front of him, Yuan Qingfeng can be said to be full of emotion!
If it had been put in the past, it would have been impossible at all!
The garrison regiment used to train gunners, and it was all taught by hand, and then through actual combat, the level of artillery bombardment was raised little by little!
As for the theory of shelling, the exact location of the enemy's artillery positions is calculated based on the flight trajectory of the shells fired by the enemy...... Looking at the entire garrison regiment, there is not a single person!
The troops moved to Datong and were lucky to solve this problem!
In total, there are more than 4,000 absenteeism, including a lot of artillery, including three artillerymen who have been systematically studied!
In order to keep them in the garrison regiment and train more systematic and professional artillery talents for the garrison regiment, Yuan Qingfeng wasted a lot of effort!
He directly appointed them as the artillery staff officers of the battalion headquarters and the rank of deputy company commander, and personally promised them that as long as each of them could train ten professional gunners who were similar to them, they would be promoted to the commander of the artillery company and directly go down to the unit to lead the team!
"Battalion commander, the shooting Zhuyuan has come out, and we guarantee that the error will not exceed thirty meters!" An artillery staff officer suddenly shouted!
Yuan Qingfeng's heart was happy at that time!
This speed is faster than I expected, and with this speed, it is worth it to keep them!
His eyes lit up, and his face was full of anticipation!
"Okay, provide it to the troops immediately, all the artillery will be tested here first, and then the corrective shooting will be fired by the officers and then the cannons will be fired, each cannon will fire five rapid fires, and I will raze the little devil artillery position to the ground!"
"Yes, Battalion Commander!"
"All gun emplacements, one test shot, ...... fire"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The dull sound of shelling soon sounded in Yuan Qingfeng's ears, and he hurriedly raised his binoculars and looked at Lingqiu City!
While the screaming continued, one fireball after another was already rising into the city!
The three artillery staff officers reacted quickly, their eyes kept staring at the artillery scope, they didn't move, and they ordered loudly: "All artillery firing distances are shortened by thirty meters, five rapid shots, fire!" ”
It wasn't until everyone began to adjust the artillery that the sound of loading kept reaching their ears, and the sound of explosions reached Yuan Qingfeng's ears from the city!
At this time, the commanders of several artillery companies had already given the order to open the artillery: "Five rapid shots per gun, open fire!" ”
"Woo woo woo ......"
Ears are enveloped by a piercing scream! 2k reading web
