readx;?“ What's the use of this thing here? Du Yande suddenly remembered the 88 anti-aircraft guns installed by the Germans on the trucks back then, "Can you shoot on the move?" ”

"No, you can't shoot on the move. Lin Shenhe smiled and said, "The materials used in the truck are not very good, and the center of gravity is relatively high after the installation of the flying thunder cannon, which is easy to overturn when shooting sideways, and we don't have any fire control system, so we can only stop and aim."www.biquge.info ”

"Can't this truck have a trailer?"

"No, the power is insufficient, the ammunition cart cannot be moved, and the center of gravity of the flying thunder cannon itself is not low, you need to first put the gun on the ground with a lever, and then fix it with ground nails."

"Isn't that going to take a lot of time? It's not easy to transfer something in battle, right? ”

"It's very easy, the artillery bracket is retracted and released through a lever," Lin Shenhe patted the bracket and pointed at it, "As long as you push this to the other side, a skilled artillery crew should be able to complete the preparation for firing in half a minute." ”

"Brother Lin Quan, there will be a war again tomorrow." Fan Han was lying on the marching bed at this time, and accosted Lin Quan, who was also sleepless beside him. The army barracks originally planned to use wooden bunk beds, but because the production plan of the lumber mill in charge of Xiao Jing was completely full, no matter what unit it was, they were now watching the lumber mill give priority to producing what they needed, and the army's more than 1,000 wooden beds were even more lined up.

"yes, you can't sleep?" Lin Quan took a deep breath and said.

"There's going to be a war tomorrow, and I can't sleep when I think about it." Fan Han turned sideways to look at Lin Quan, who was clinical. "I heard that tomorrow our cannon will be in full swing."

"Alas...... Didn't you listen to Comrade Li Zhen, a second lieutenant in artillery? Tomorrow we have to fight against tens of thousands of Nanban, but how many of us are there? "Lin Quan is worried about this." As you saw when we mobilized this afternoon, there were only two companies of more than 200 people. ”

Someone next to him spoke. "Yes, plus our artillery company has only about 300 people, how can we fight against these tens of thousands of Nanban?"

"That's it, how are we going to fight tomorrow?"

Fan Han couldn't help coughing twice, attracting attention, "Don't think about running away or anything!" You also saw it last time you fought Wu'an Village, and you also saw the fate of those few who escaped. ”

"Hey, hey! Aren't you two the artillerymen who were awarded the Medal for Heroic Deeds for helping Engineer Lin at that time, and were recruited into the artillery? The man behind Lin Quan straightened up from the bed and asked.

"yes!" Lin Quan couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows, and once again boasted to his comrades about his and Fan Han's heroic actions that day.

Suddenly, a blinding light came in, "What are you guys doing?" Don't hurry up and go to bed? Li Zhen suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, holding a flashlight in his hand, still scratching and scratching there. He also had no choice, there were a lot of flashlights purchased before the crossing, but because they could not produce flashlights of the same quality in the foreseeable years, all those flashlights with strong illumination were taken away and sealed by the Planning Commission, leaving only a batch of flashlights that were generated by friction in their hands for the traversers to use. Therefore, before officially participating in the battle, the members of the military team had to use this kind of friction-generated flashlight when patrolling, and because the quality of these flashlight batteries was extremely poor, they had to keep catching and grabbing.

Everyone immediately returned to their sleeping positions, and Li Zhen couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw the soldiers below holding their breath and pretending to be dead, "Okay, I know you can't sleep, but you must also give me a good night's sleep, we have a tough battle to fight tomorrow." Don't let me catch you yawning and fighting. ”

The soldiers below laughed too. "Chief, can we win tomorrow?" A soldier asked timidly.

"Absolutely." Li Zhen knew that this was the most feared thing for recruits in battle, "If you haven't fallen asleep, sit up for me." ”

All the soldiers in the barracks sat up with a cheer and looked at Li Zhen. He smiled, turned off his flashlight, and walked to the middle of the barracks, "I'll tell you a story. ”

The soldiers nodded excitedly to each other, and they loved to listen to the stories told by the chiefs, who were often able to analyze the obviously complex issues in a simple way, and the stories were very engaging and vivid.

"That was a long time ago...... Oh no...... It was a long time ago. Li Zhen stammered, but recovered quickly. There was an example of a barbarian army of 25,000 men besieging a defensive position consisting of 2,000 soldiers armed with rifles, and after five hours of fierce fighting, the attackers lost more than 2,000 men, while the defenders lost only twenty-nine. At the same time, another support army was ambushed by the barbarians on the way to the defenders, but the barbarians broke up after losing more than 1,200 men, inflicting only two dead and fifty-two wounded on the ambushed. ”

The soldiers let out exclamations at this time, their concept of war is usually limited to commenting on stories, and generally both sides of the war must be evenly matched. The example of winning more with less is generally to be boasted about, but what Chief Li said about such a war example of the huge disparity between the forces of the two sides or the battle situation is too unbelievable.

"Do you know why the barbarians can't win when they outnumber the defenders by more than ten times?" Li Zhen asked with a smile the soldiers who got up and got closer.

"Is the barbarian army too stupid and stupid?"

"Or maybe those barbarians are like fools, and they run around when they hear the gunshots?"

"No," Li Zhen shook his head and patted Fan Han on the shoulder who was sitting on the bed next to him. "Weapons generation."

"What is the Weapon Generation Gap?" Fan Han grasped the timing very accurately and immediately asked.

Li Zhen nodded with satisfaction, "The battle is actually very simple, that is, the two sides use people to push each other, if they destroy each other and they still have enough people to fight, then they will win; If you are defeated by the enemy and you have no power to fight back, and the enemy still has a strong force, then you will lose. In the case of the same weapons on both sides, this is a comparison of the number of people and the strength of the training quality of the army. But weapons can widen the gap in strength between the two sides, for example, our swords are sharper than the enemy, and the armor is thicker than the enemy, then we can reduce casualties in battle, and we can also inflict greater casualties on the enemy. In the past, if you could only tie a thousand against a thousand, then you can easily achieve five hundred against one thousand with a better weapon. But you've used all the 1628 rifles you've issued, right? ”

"Yes! That's good stuff! Lin Quan immediately took over the conversation, "You can hit a target two hundred meters away, almost a hundred feet." ”

"Yes," Li Zhen patted Lin Quan on the shoulder to show encouragement. "Comrade Lin Quan is right, the weapons used by the barbarian army now are mainly iron knives or spears, which at best have a killing distance of one meter to one meter and a half. Even if they use bows and arrows, with the inferior materials of their materials, they can shoot sixty meters is already a good bow. But what about our weapons? We were able to strike at an enemy from a distance of two hundred meters, and the enemy needed to reach a distance of at least sixty meters at full speed to inflict damage on us, which would take about seventy seconds to reach, and we were already able to fire at least thirty volleys in that time. ”

"But there are so many of them!" Lin Quan was a little anxious, "There are more than 10,000 people, and we are only 300 people." ”

"Are you stupid?" Fan Han sat up on the side and knocked on Lin Quan's head, "Three hundred people, thirty salvos, can shoot out nine thousand bullets, even if one thousand of them are dumb fire, and the remaining half misses, you can also destroy four thousand barbarians." ”

Li Zhen laughed, "You can't count it like that, don't we still have a cannon?" ”

"Ahh Oh, yes! Lin Quan patted himself on the head again. Our cannon can kill a whole circle in one down, and it's really nothing to be afraid of. ”

"That's right, the cannon can hit about 600 meters." Li Zhen gave Lin Quan two more gentle pats on the shoulder encouragingly. "I don't believe any brute can charge forward with artillery, let alone deadly guns."

Suddenly there was a burst of laughter in the room. "Okay, now you're not worried, are you?" Li Zhen grabbed the flashlight several times and made the flashlight light up. "Go back to your beds, sleep, and recharge! I am waiting for you to serve the Senate and the people with excellent achievements. ”

With the sound of thunderclapping footsteps, the soldiers all returned to their beds and lay down on their blankets. "I wish our artillery company a victorious start tomorrow, and good night everyone! Take a break! For the Senate and the people! ”

The soldiers said in unison: "Good night, chief!" For the Senate and the people! ”

…………………………

Li Zhen, who walked out of the dormitory, turned off the flashlight and looked up at the night sky without a trace of clouds, the Milky Way was crossing the entire sky, countless stars were dotted in the night sky, and the nebula carried these stars in it with a trace of ghostly light, which seemed so harmonious.

In the distant harbor, the Chunxiao was still quietly parked in the harbor, and the tall mast was so conspicuous in the moonlight at night. In the distance were the Dongfeng, with several navigation lights on it, and a lighthouse at the entrance to the harbor, whose flames were signaling to the sea at night to prevent a ship from running aground.

Gu Fulin was sitting bored in the operation room of the Dongfeng at this time, and there were several radars on the Dongfeng, and the sea search radar was basically turned on 24 hours a day. As the owner of Dongfang Harbor, it is very necessary for the Senate Navy to have a sufficient understanding of the situation of ships sailing in the nearby waters, so Yang Feng and Gu Fulin were naturally stuffed on the Dongfeng as radar crews. There is also a weather radar, which was also assigned to Zhang Zefeng to manage at this time, but this guy has not bothered to care about this since he issued several rainstorm warnings with clear skies, anyway, there are few typhoons in the northern hemisphere in winter.

Gu Fulin was assigned to work the night shift tonight, and seeing that there was no signal on the radar except for the occasional wave echo, he even felt a little redundant, and couldn't help but droop his eyes slightly, and he wanted to sleep a little. He couldn't help but stand up and stretch, and walked around the operation room to see a few veterans who couldn't find a place in the Dongfeng Tea House below playing cards on the deck. Boredom watching the guys below play a thousand with each other, a deck of cards playing six ghosts, he felt even more bored, so he went back to the radar screen, and was about to sit down and sleep with his head up. At that moment, a bright spot suddenly appeared in the farthest part of the west, and he couldn't help but wipe his eyes, and lightly tapped it twice on the radar screen, but the bright spot was still there, and soon became two, and then six, and it was moving at a very slow pace in the direction of the port.
