Chapter 433: Rocket Range Extender (I)
Old Tang couldn't help but be surprised, as early as when he was reorganized from the heavy fire company, he had seen the six German-made SFH-18 150mm howitzers, so he knew very well what kind of range this gun had.
It will be more than 13 kilometers when it is fully fought, which does not have much advantage over the main large-caliber artillery of the United States and the Soviet Union at the same time.
Because of this, if you want to use the SFH-18 150mm howitzer for fire support, the distance between the artillery position and the main forward position should not exceed 10 kilometers at most, otherwise the shells will not fall on the enemy's head, but on the skull of your own people.
But Bai Yi set the position 16 kilometers behind the main forward position with one mouth, not to mention providing fire support at this distance, it was clearly aimed at the rhythm of his own people's fierce fighting, so that Lao Tang looked at Bai Yi in a daze, and thought to himself, isn't this guy too smart and crazy?
But in the next moment, Lao Tang suddenly realized something, and his stunned expression seemed to be lit up by the holy light, and he instantly became happy and surprised, and even the words he said trembled a little excitedly: "Lao Bai, have you made something new?" Tell me, what the hell is it? ”
Bai Yi, who originally wanted to sell in front of Lao Tang, didn't expect this product to guess the door so quickly, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
"It's all an old brother who has eaten in a pot, you don't want to sell it in front of me anymore, if you make a surprise, wait for the American devils to come up, let's let them surprise and surprise, okay, hurry up and tell me, what new weapons have you made?"
When Bai Yi was still depressed about the surprise being exposed, Lao Tang urged anxiously, seeing Lao Tang's anxious appearance, Bai Yi knew that this surprise could only be reserved for the Americans who called, after all, this guy in front of him had been with him for too long, and those fixed routines had long been familiar with him, and it was estimated that even if he was not numb, he was aesthetically tired, so what surprises could he talk about?
So he sighed deeply: "It's not a new equipment, it's nothing more than the 150mm rocket range extender that Germany was equipped with back then, but it's just the latest German technological achievement digested by Baiyun Factory." ”
Hearing this, Lao Tang's spirit was shocked, although he had never seen what the rocket range extender looked like, and he didn't know what the specific performance was, but just listening to the name, it was very powerful, not to mention that there was Bai Yi behind this ammunition, and the performance was naturally not bad.
As for why?
If you look at Bai Yi's resume over the past year, you will know that the weapons and equipment he developed are all excellent products with outstanding performance, and the other troops don't know that Lao Tang doesn't know, anyway, their heavy firepower company is supported by the equipment developed by Bai Yi, and its combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, otherwise it would not have been possible to go through several major wars and still be withdrawn as a system.
Because of this, when he heard about this new ammunition, Lao Tang didn't even have to ask about the specific performance, as long as he knew that it was made by Bai Yi, it was enough, because in his eyes, it was synonymous with high-quality products, and he was relieved to use it boldly.
As for the technical achievements digested by Baiyun Factory and the technology applied by Germany during World War II, they were all automatically ignored by Lao Tang, because in his opinion, these are all excuses for Bai Yi's humility.
This made the old Tang, who thought he was thick-skinned enough, very disapproving, and only used a meaningful look to tell Bai Yi silently, I know you made it, don't explain, I know it's you!
After that, he no longer dwelled on the boring topics of what rocket range extender projectiles, how long the range was, and how effective the combat effectiveness was, but directly had a constructive discussion with Bai Yi on practical issues such as the establishment of artillery observation posts, the confirmation of the frequency of communication stations, and the setting of call sign codes.
This made Bai Yi very depressed, is it good for him to throw out a new piece of equipment, can't you Lao Tang be a compliment and let Lao Tzu pretend to be a good force?
Although Bai Yi also knows that Lao Tang has unconditional trust in him, the problem is that he is not a pretentious person, and he pays attention to personal things to hide his merits and fame, on the contrary, he is a layman in his bones.
This kind of opportunity to show off his skills in front of his old friends with new equipment, he doesn't say it, but he is very happy in his heart, but Lao Tang is so good that he directly took out his unconditional trust, and directly omitted the process of showing off his skills, which made Bai Yi not depressed?
"Wu Chen, the platoon commander of the third platoon, came to report!"
Just when Bai Yi was depressed and discussing the specific details of fire support with Lao Tang, Wu Chen, the platoon commander of the third platoon, suddenly straightened up at the door: "Please instruct!" ”
"Don't be nervous, no outsiders!" Seeing that it was Wu Chen coming, Old Tang, who was talking to Bai Yi, waved his hand very chicly, and then asked in a deep voice: "Do you remember the artillery parameter calculation method taught to you before?" ”
"Yes, of course I do!"
Wu Chen nodded without hesitation: "You said that it was the soul left by the old company commander and our heavy firepower company, no matter what, you must remember it, otherwise it will not be a heavy firepower company." ”
The old company commander that Wu Chen said was Lao Ge who died in Songhu Peak, and the soul to remember was the rapid artillery calculation method that Lao Ge often showed off.
After entering the Korean War, he took it out from time to time to show off with his soldiers, and it was at that time that Lao Ge learned this method from Lao Ge, and then Lao Ge sacrificed, this set of positioning methods was regarded by Lao Tang as a tradition of the heavy firepower company, requiring the soldiers of the heavy firepower company to learn.
Bai Yi didn't know that the rapid parameter positioning method of artillery originated from him before, and it was developed into a unique tradition of this company by the commanders of the heavy firepower company of Lao Ge and Lao Tang.
Before the emotion was finished, the next scene made Bai Yi, who claimed to be a veteran, stunned, only to see Lao Tang holding the cigarette roll between his fingers, taking a sip without saltiness, and while exhaling the smoke, he said proudly with a sneer on his face with a little satisfaction: "Of course, the positions are set up 16 kilometers away, what do you say is the range?" Rocket range extender projectile, you just hear the name, the range is 20 kilometers! ”
"Really?" Wu Chen's eyes erupted with countless little stars.
"Don't you want to think about when Lao Tzu lied about this?" Old Tang flicked the ashes on the cigarette butt very chicly, and his smile became more confident and bright: "Besides, who is Lao Tzu?" Isn't this little thing a little thing to be captured? Can you run the train with your mouth full like you? ”
"Yes, yes, that's definitely not bad, the so-called company commander is a top two!" Wu Chen handed his thumb to Old Tang when he landed, only to see that Bai Yi was full of black lines, and finally saw how the heavy firepower company was "the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked"......
