Chapter 486: The First Fortress Shelling II
"Loaded with solid bullets to pierce armor and carry out corrective test firing. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Nanshan Hideyoshi looked at the artillery, colored flags, and human heads on the head of Shanhaiguan City, and with a trace of disdain in his eyes, he began to give the bombardment order.
"Boom!"
At 3:15 p.m., the Japanese military government specially purchased 27 105mm caliber fortress guns from the German Krupp Artillery Field for the Arteillary Fort at a cost of one million taels.
Finally, in this first year, there was a roaring sound.
"Whoa—"
The huge projectile emitted a sharp roar, cut a long arc in front of everyone's eyes, flew high over everyone's heads, and smashed into a barren slope about 400 meters behind the castle.
"Haha-"
Seeing this scene, the Qing troops on the city laughed loudly, and only after passing through Korea, the soldiers of the Liaodong War knew with expressionless faces that this was just the beginning of the test firing.
"Gun position No. 2, the muzzle of the gun is lowered by five degrees, eighty-three density, test firing."
With the information transmitted by the observers, Kusuyama Hideyoshi began to adjust the elevation angle of the artillery.
"Boom!"
The second corrective bullet was fired immediately, and at this time, He Changying had just been awakened by the sound of cannonballs, walked out of the house, and under a bare jujube tree, he saw a clear blue sky overhead, and a ripple of spatial distortion appeared.
Then, there was a bang from behind, shaking the ground beneath their feet and trembling slightly.
This cannonball swept rapidly from the sky in the middle of the North Wing City, and smashed down fifty meters in front of the North City Gate of Shanhaiguan, smashing the hard frozen soil into countless soil foam and raising it high.
The laughter on the Great Wall suddenly stopped, and the faces of many Qing soldiers changed color.
You know, this is only the second shot, and it is almost enough to reach everyone's side, how can the artillery fire of the Japanese artillery be so accurate?
The dust and smoke in front of the north gate gradually cleared, revealing a pit the size of a tabletop.
This cannon can actually smash the rock-solid frozen soil into such a shape, and it is obvious that the power of the projectile is quite huge.
Especially Bai Ji, Wang Liansan and others, who were standing upstairs in Beicheng, felt that their calves and stomachs were twitching slightly, and a cold sweat broke out on their backs in the winter.
-- If this cannonball had been advancing a little further, I wouldn't have to plant it here today!
"Haha, but that's it!"
Although Bai Ji was in a cold sweat in his heart, he laughed out loud: "As the so-called miss is a thousand miles, besides, this cannonball looks amazingly powerful, but it is just a range that explodes out of the size of a tabletop; Compared with the projectile of our red-coated cannon, there is no grass growing in a radius of 100 square meters, which cannot be compared. ”
While speaking, Bai Ji and Wang Liansan walked out of the north gate tower and walked towards the farther wall of the city, Wang Liansan was even more timid to bask in the sun that could not be basked in the city tower and said: "What a sunny day in winter!" ”
"That's, that's it; It's just a soft hanging, which looks stout and scary, but in fact it's just a silver-like wax gun head, which can't be poked! Haha-"
Hearing the words of the white guard, the soldiers on the city wall immediately 'came to life', and one by one shouted loudly about their contempt.
The big men don't lose their anger when they lose the battle, and when the sky falls, the more they are covered, the more they can't show their cowardice, which makes people look down on them.
As a result, the Qing soldiers and officers in the Beicheng Tower all shouted to go away and ran far away to the city wall to bask in the sun, while continuing to wait to see the 'jokes' of the Japanese artillery.
"That's, that's it; This majestic city wall, dozens of red-coated cannons, pointing at the Japanese and bombarding a table with a big fart, can hit until next winter; Haha, do they have so many shells? ”
The flag soldier Xiao Cavalry School, who was ashamed to say that he swallowed smoke bubbles just now, was also frightened by the second shell of the Japanese army before, and when he heard Bai Ji's words, he immediately 'lived' to life.
When this Xiao cavalry school saw the empty North City Tower, a wave of blood suddenly surged up, rushed into the city tower in three or two steps, stood on the battlement of the city wall, and stepped on a 500-pound red-clothed copper cannon with one foot.
shouted at the top of his voice: "Grandson, there is a kind of you just coming to grandpa, and if you hit it, your grandpa and I will eat in public!" ”
"Haha, Master You, if you don't want to eat, just say it, aren't you embarrassing these grandsons?"
The bannermen standing outside the city tower, with rifles on their backs and smoking guns pinned to their waists, laughed loudly.
"Haha-"
The Xiao Riding School surnamed You laughed happily, and looked high in the cold wind, and the residual afterglow of the smoke made him flutter like a fairy: "Lao Tzu didn't say that he didn't want to eat, but it's a pity that the dog doesn't have this ability!" ”
"Loading grenade shotshots, the first gun position, the second gun position is offset by one arc to the left; Gun emplacement No. 3, offset by an arc to the right. ”
Kusuyama Hideyoshi's voice was full of sinister meaning.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The muzzles of the three Krupp fortress cannons spat out long flames almost in no particular order, and fired three huge grenades at the Great Wall north of Shanhaiguan City.
"Woo-"
In the sharp sound of artillery, He Changying and a group of anti-Japanese sergeants looked up for bullet tracks.
"Boom-"
Suddenly, three flames burst out over the northern city of Shanhaiguan, shooting out countless projectiles.
Of the three grenade bombs, two exploded over the city more than 200 meters behind the city, and one was blowing up more than 20 meters outside the right city wall.
"Ahh
Suddenly, a large rain of blood rose on that section of the city wall, and the Qing troops crowded on that section of the city wall were ploughed down by the scorching projectiles.
The power of a bullet is as good as a fight!
On the south wall of the North Wing City, Liu Mingyang, Li Jingfang, and Luo Huafei, including He Changying, all changed their faces.
"The power of this grenade bomb seems—"
Li Fengrui said in shock: "It seems to be much more powerful than Shimenzi and Nanguanling?" ”
"The Nanguanling Army used the Krupp 70mm and 80mm bronze field guns from Germany twenty-three years ago and eighteen years ago; Now it is the latest imported Krupp 105mm steel-cast fortress gun, not to mention the caliber material, there is a time gap of 20 years, can it be the same? ”
He Changying looked at the section of the Great Wall of Death two miles away, glanced at Luo Huafei, and asked hopefully, "Are you quasi or are they quasi?" ”
Luo Huafei only woke up from the shock at this time, and said with a red face and difficulty: "We are far inferior to them." ”
"It's not just about people; Why did the Yoshino hit so accurately in the naval battle of Dadonggou, because their ships were equipped with artillery rangefinders that had not been available for a long time, and the ranging capabilities of these new Japanese guns were obviously much more accurate than those of our old guns ten years ago. ”
"Anzhi, how do you know so much?"
Li Jingfang, who was next to him, had been beating his heart all the time, and at this time he barely landed on the ground, and when he heard the novel term 'artillery rangefinder' in He Changying's mouth, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Ahh
Seeing the eyes of everyone, He Changying sighed.
What if you knew?
When He Changying was in high school, the brothers in the dormitory at night sometimes bragged, and he always liked to say such a sentence: The general trend of the world is mighty, those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die!
Now that I think about it, I was a hairy kid at that time, and I really didn't understand anything.
Now he understands.
But it's extremely painful!
In the Qing-Japanese War, he was a praying mantis who was unable to measure himself and tried in vain to block the car.
It was extremely difficult, extremely tormenting, and extremely helpless.
He is trying desperately to change history and change the tragedy of the past century, but now he is like falling into a swamp step by step.
Suppose the Japanese army captures Shanhaiguan, and then captures Jinmen and Yanjing.
Then this consequence is far more terrifying than in the original time and space!
It seems, the harder he tries,
The more reverse!
