Chapter 84: The Station of the Nine Rivers (7)
"What is this?"
A kilometre behind Happy Valley, an exclamation rang out beside a grove of trees, startling a few birds that were about to land on a branch to rest and soar into the sky again.
At this time, in front of Bai Hongshan were three rows of neatly arranged mortars, the first two rows were 16 M2 60 mm mortars and 12 M1 81 mm mortars, and more than 200 meters away from them were four mortars that were one person high, and the huge muzzles pointed to the sky, making people have no doubt about their power.
Bai Hongshan, who has been playing with artillery for so many years, immediately blurted out when he saw these four mortars: "You ...... You have heavy mortars, which are at least a hundred calibers. β
"To be exact, it is 107 mm caliber, with a rifled barrel, and the maximum firing range is 6,800 meters!" Su Jin on the side answered this question with a smile.
Bai Hongshan turned his head and said, "Sir, this is your artillery company?" β
"yes, what's wrong?" Su Jin glanced at him a little strangely.
Bai Hongshan didn't care who was in front of him, and at this time, his voice even changed a little: "One artillery company has twenty ...... No, at least more than thirty pieces of artillery, Chief Su, are you teasing me? β
"Who teased you, this is indeed a cannon company!" Su Jin was very puzzled by Bai Hongshan's gaffe, and said with some dissatisfaction: "If you don't call it an artillery company, it's hard to call it an artillery brigade?" β
"You...... You ......"
Bai Hongshan didn't know what to say, at this time, he really wanted to yell at Su Jin, "Are you kidding me, you are also the head of a militia group, why don't you even know this common sense!" β
It is no wonder that Bai Hongshan is so excited, taking the 1st Artillery Brigade of the National Army at that time as an example, there were only 48 Swedish-made Bofors 75 mm mountain guns in the whole brigade, and the 4th Independent Artillery Regiment equipped with the First Army of the National Army was only equipped with 36 Japanese-made 38 75 mm field guns, and a mere militia regiment was equipped with more than 30 mortars, including more than 100 mm caliber, are you kidding me.
Of course, mortars are not the same as long-range artillery such as field artillery and cannons, but there will be no absurdity that an artillery company is equipped with more than 30 mortars, and what makes Bai Hongshan even more unbearable is that there are four heavy mortars of more than 100 calibers.
Looking at Bai Hongshan's surprised appearance like a stroke, Su Jin could only roll his eyes helplessly, but this was not surprising. Although this guy claimed to be a military observer before he crossed over, the two grew up in different environments. On the screen that grew up with Su Jin, whether it is the Armageddon, the Battle of Moscow, the Battle of Stalingrad, or the Battle of Kursk, or the Battle of Kursk, and Saving the Soldiers, once they are fought, they are all big scenes of thousands of artillery firing at once, accompanied by thousands of tanks rumbling and the group charging. In his mind, the scale of artillery of this scale is too small with only a few dozen mortars, and if you look at the number of artillery pieces in a fight, Uncle Sam and Uncle Hans, it is all about thousands.
Ignoring the mood of the heart-pounding guy next to him, Su Jin said to him, "Company Commander Bai, how is it?" Stay and help me, although I have artillery here, I am short of people, if you are willing to stay, the four 107 caliber mortars in the back will be under your command! β
"I ......"
Looking at the four heavy mortars behind him that shone in the sun, Bai Hongshan swallowed his saliva unconsciously, people who have never been an artillery soldier will not understand the artillery's love for artillery, this kind of love is different from the previous love between men and women, but it is also hot and moving, and being able to personally operate and command their favorite artillery is also a great satisfaction for them.
Shifting his gaze back from the four cannons, Bai Hongshan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay...... I promise you, I'll help you fight this battle! β
Seeing Bai Hongshan's gritted teeth, Su Jin smiled, he was now sure that his plan to dig the foot of the wall was half successful......
"Smack...... Snap ......" At this moment, two faint gunshots were heard in the distance.
At the same time, a rustling sound began to sound in the headset of the communication soldier who had been following Su Jin, and then the communication soldier turned his head to Su Jin and said loudly after listening to the sound coming from the earphone: "Report to the chief, the observation post in front has reported that the Japanese army has appeared, the number is about one wing, and the number is unknown!" β
"Is it finally there?" Su Jin muttered softly, and then said to Bai Hongshan: "Company Commander Bai, now I will temporarily hand over those four heavy mortars to you for command, I will give you half an hour to familiarize yourself with the performance of that artillery, and in half an hour I will see its shells fall on the heads of the Japanese, can you do it?" β
Bai Hongshan also had a solemn face, and he saluted Su Jin and said loudly: "Please rest assured, sir, I promise to complete the task!" β
"Okay, so be it!"
Su Jin hurriedly ran towards the position after a few commands, and when he ran to the position of the second battalion on the top of the hillside, he saw that Li Wei was still directing the soldiers to strengthen the position. Su Jin walked up to Li Wei and asked, "Li Wei, is the second battalion ready?" β
Li Wei patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'm ready." I will have my brothers evacuate to the back of the mountain, leaving only a few observation posts on the top of the mountain. β
"Well, that's good." Su Jin nodded, and then admonished: "The Japanese are not very good, they will definitely bombard our position with artillery fire before launching an attack, you must let the brothers prepare for artillery, and must not make senseless sacrifices." But ......."
Speaking of this, Su Jin's face showed a trace of solemnity, and then said: "You tell the brothers right away, if I find out that the matter of Qianshan is staged again after the fight starts, I know them, but the guys in the hands of the brothers in the back battalion don't know them, if this situation occurs again, then don't blame me for being unkind, I'll clean you up first, do you understand?" β
Looking at the murderous aura in Su Jin's eyes, even a man with big nerves like Li Wei couldn't help but shudder, quickly stood up straight and said loudly: "Brother Su, even if you put a hundred hearts, brothers will never do that kind of thing without eggs!" β
"I hope you do what you say!" Su Jin still stared at him with a calm face, and saw that Li Wei was hairy, and then walked away with his hands behind his back.
It wasn't until Su Jin's figure disappeared around the corner that Li Wei shouted loudly to the soldiers around him with a dark face: "Have you heard it, if anyone dares to be a deserter in the future, you don't need to do it in the group, Lao Tzu will be the first to invite him to eat peanuts!" β
