Chapter 304: Improving the Conscienceless Cannon

Staff Officer Wang smiled and said, "Battalion commander, sit in the puppet army headquarters!" Go in yourself! The second company commander nodded and hurriedly walked to the puppet army headquarters. Niu Dazhuang, who was waiting for Zhang Cheng to call back in the command center, saw the sudden arrival of the second company commander and asked, "How is the situation there?" ”

The commander of the second company immediately replied: "The battle is over!" The results have not yet been counted! Niu Dazhuang nodded, and just about to say something, the communication soldier walked up to Niu Dazhuang with a telegram and said, "Company commander! Call back! Let's be sure to withdraw from Sanhe before dawn and return to Yinping Mountain! ”

"Got it!" Saying that, Niu Dazhuang thought for a while and said, "Immediately pass on my order and clean up the battlefield as quickly as possible!" At the same time, let Zhao Xuanzhu let the car drive into the city, and we packed the supplies and evacuated immediately! ”

Half an hour later, Zhao Xuanzhu, who received the order, drove the truck into Sanhe County. Seeing the approaching truck, Niu Dazhuang immediately ordered: "Load all the things you need!" After more than three hours of busy work, all the materials of the puppet army in Sanhe County were loaded onto the truck driven by Zhao Xuanzhu and more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages parked near the warehouse.

After the supplies were loaded, Niu Dazhuang smiled with satisfaction, rolled up his sleeves, looked at the time and said, "Let's go!" Hearing Niu Dazhuang's order, the convoy slowly drove out of the city. Just as Niu Dazhuang was leaving with his troops, the traitor county magistrate who was hiding in the city immediately followed out of the county with four of his cronies. Looking at the convoy that was a little far away, the traitor county magistrate said to the two cronies: "You two follow the convoy and see where they go!" After that, the traitor county magistrate thought about it and said to the other two cronies: "Hurry up and set up the car, let's go to the imperial army!" ”

Due to the extra carriages in the convoy, the speed slowed down a little. It didn't take long for the soldiers of the four company commanders in charge of the palace to discover the sneaky two people following behind, and immediately reported to Staff Officer Wang. After receiving the report, Staff Officer Wang said to the four soldiers beside him: "Wait a while at the bend in front of you, you four will hide!" Fight to catch the tail in the back alive! ”

"Yes!" Saying that, the four soldiers followed the troops casually for a while, and when they reached the bend, they immediately hidden. The two cronies of the traitor county magistrate who followed the convoy muttered: "Da Niu, do you say they are the New Fourth Army or the 28th Division or the Central Army?" ”

Da Niu thought for a while and replied: "Dali, I don't think they are like the New Fourth Army, and they don't want the 28th Division and the Central Army!" I think they're like bandits! Saying that, the two of them crossed the corner. As soon as he walked out of the corner, the four soldiers who were lying in ambush on the side pounced at once, and two people resisted and were already pressed to the ground.

More than ten minutes later, the four warriors walked in front of Staff Officer Wang with Da Niu and Da Li. Seeing the two people who were escorted over, Staff Officer Wang asked lightly, "Who are you?" Why follow us? Some clever bulls immediately replied with a turn of their minds: "Sir! We hate those two devils to death! I heard the gunshots just now, and I knew that it was the army that came to avenge us, so the two of us followed the army and wanted to fight the devil with you! ”

When Counselor Wang heard Da Niu's words, he sneered and said, "You didn't tell the truth!" It seems that you are very dishonest! Saying that, Staff Officer Wang said to the soldiers beside him: "Escort the two of them down and kill them!" Hearing the order of Staff Officer Wang, the four soldiers immediately pulled the big bull and vigorously prepared to pull it to the side to be executed, and when Dali couldn't help but shout: "Sir, spare your life!" We are following you on the orders of the county magistrate! ”

When Counselor Wang heard the words, he thought for a while and said, "Kill the liar!" Saying that, Counselor Wang looked at him vigorously and said, "Let you go back now!" Tell you county magistrate that our Governor Gu will soon take us to recover Anhui, and tell you traitor county magistrate to think more about the way back in the future! After saying that, Counselor Wang turned around and left.

Looking at the back of Counselor Wang leaving, Dali just wanted to speak, when he heard a crisp gunshot. Hearing the gunshot, Dali chuckled in his heart, and immediately understood that the big cow was finished! It didn't take long for the two people who had executed Da Niu to come to Da Li's side and said, "This time, our chief promised to let you live, and you will do it yourself in the future!" If we let the 28th Division Special Task Force know that you will help and abuse again, there will be no good fruit for you to eat in the future! With that, the four soldiers followed the convoy.

Waiting for the convoy to go away a little bit, he turned around helplessly, found the corpse of the big cow not far away, and muttered: "Big cow, brother, I don't want to see your violent corpse wilderness, or I'll take you home!" After speaking, he vigorously carried the corpse of the big cow and walked in the direction of Sanhe County. When the sky was slightly bright, the convoy entered the Yinping Mountain boundary. After entering Yinping Mountain, Niu Dazhuang sighed and said, "Brothers! Let's work hard to get back to the station at noon! ”

"Yes!" The soldiers of the guard battalion shouted loudly with high morale. Just as the convoy of the guard battalion entered Yinping Mountain, the troops hidden in the pass had already reported to Zhang Cheng by telephone. When Zhang Cheng received the report from the pass, he immediately became excited and said to Gao Zhisong with a smile: "Let the cooking class prepare some delicious food!" The guard battalion they are coming back soon! ”

Zhang Cheng thought for a while and asked, "Lao Gao, do you estimate how much time the little ghost has left for us?" Gao Zhisong thought for a while and replied: "According to my own estimates, the time left for us by the little devil will not exceed two weeks!" Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "Yes!" We only have these two weeks! After two weeks, the devil will definitely send a plane to reconnoiter our position first, and I think we will just use the little devil's plane to break the fast first! ”

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Gao Zhisong frowned and said, "Sit, teacher!" We still don't know where the little devil's airport is, how do you say we can break the fast with the devil's plane? Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "We set up anti-aircraft gun and anti-aircraft machine gun positions on various heights in Yinping Mountain!" In case the plane of the little devil flies at low altitude reconnaissance! We'll use the little devil plane to be arrogant and give them a guy! ”

Zhang Cheng then said: "Sun Feixing, they reconnoitred the location of the arsenal in Suzhou, and found the Japanese Air Force Brigade in Hangzhou. In the past few days, I took Song Hu and them to the Hangzhou airport, and used the devil's bomber to bomb the chemical weapons factory near Suzhou, and the defense of the house was handed over to you! "Without waiting for Gao Zhisong's reaction, Zhang Cheng said I'll go to the training ground to have a look!" After speaking, Zhang Cheng left in a hurry with the guards.

Zhang Cheng and Li Qinwen came to the arsenal, for Zhang Cheng to come, Chen Guangcai seemed a little surprised, very nervous, the devil is about to attack Yinping Mountain, the pressure on all departments is very great, especially the arsenal, almost 24 hours non-stop work, workers can also take a short turn, but as the head of the first factory, Chen Guangcai, production and technology have to grasp both hands, that link has a problem, must be dealt with personally, he has not remembered how many days he has not been to bed, Zhang Cheng comes, there will definitely be some new tasks, It is possible to develop new weapons again, so can Chen Guang not be nervous?

As soon as he entered the office, Zhang Chengcheng ordered Chen Guangcai to find a few gasoline barrels to come over, sat on Chen Guangcai's desk without saying a word, picked up the pen and began to write and draw.

After a while, Zhang Cheng got up, handed the drawings in his hand to Chen Guangcai, and said, "Do this, try how the effect is, be fast!" ”

Chen Guangcai took it and looked at it, and was dumbfounded, and said for a long time: "This is not, division commander, you don't want to use this as a large-caliber mortar cannon, right?"

"Let's talk about it," Zhang Cheng's tone was unquestionable, and Chen Guangcai had no choice but to order his subordinates to hurry up.

Mortar is a large caliber, short barrel artillery, is a relatively old curved artillery, because the shape is like a stone mortar and named, because of the short barrel, so its trajectory has the characteristics of a mortar, but not exactly the same as mortars, its trajectory is more extreme than mortars, that is, see high but not far, so, although it can fire high-power shells, but the range is extremely unsatisfactory, because the flexibility of firepower is really poor to a certain level, so after the appearance of mortars and howitzers, mortars quickly fell behind, until now in addition to the equipment is poor "over there" may still be in use, other troops have little equipment, no wonder Chen Guangcai is suspicious.

But what Zhang Cheng wants to produce is different, but Huaye invented the "Flying Thunder Cannon" in the Huaihai Campaign, it also has a creepy name, "no conscience cannon," its principle is extremely simple, that is, use an oil drum as a cannon barrel, fill the bottom of the oil drum with a sufficient amount of propellant gunpowder, use the gunpowder to burn instantly to produce a huge impact, the fuse on the explosive package is ignited at the same time, and the explosive package is sent out, as for the power, it depends on what is in the explosive bag.

In less than an hour, a technician came to report that "that thing" was done and had been placed in the experimental site, and the technicians really couldn't name the gasoline drum, so they had to call it "That thing?" ”

"Let's go, take a look," Zhang Cheng said, ignoring everyone, and walked towards the experimental site, the arsenal often has to test the power of weapons, so naturally the experimental site is indispensable.

Out of the thick iron gate of the base, a wide lawn fell into front of you, tattered armored vehicles, cars, and some straw men, Japanese army portraits of human head targets scattered around, the lawn is full of huge craters, burned black on all sides of the mountains and forests, there are still unfinished embers, but everyone's eyes are obviously on the 300 mm diameter oil drum in the ping, Zhang Cheng is so serious, everyone is looking forward to this inconspicuous thing, what power will it have.

Zhang Cheng glanced into the oil drum, a large explosive bag tied with iron wire was lying on the iron shelf at the bottom of the barrel, and an iron pipe pierced out of the side of the barrel, revealing a long lead.

Zhang Cheng measured the distance and ordered the soldiers to use the straw man to form a formation with a diameter of 100 meters 250 meters away, and then dug an inclined opening near the oil drum, and put the oil drum into it, the mouth was inclined at 45 degrees, facing the straw man in the distance.

After making preparations, Zhang Cheng ordered everyone to retreat away, lazily: "Light the fire!" ”

A soldier stepped forward quickly, and in a moment, sparks appeared from the lead on the side of the oil drum, and with a loud "boom", I saw a flame pushing a black thing, quickly rising into the air.

"Boom", a loud bang exploded in the sky above the straw man, and a group of people covered their ears and watched a huge mushroom cloud rise into the air, completely dumbfounded.

I saw that the hundreds of straw men who were still on the ground were blown away by the wind, not to mention the straw, not even a single wooden stick for the straw men, and the ground was turned over a layer.

The people who were still disdainful just now were suddenly shocked, and their open mouths could be stuffed into a goose egg without exception.

"Rub, if this is an infantry that fights little devils, how many people will die in one shot," Li Qinwen exclaimed.

"It's a pity that it's too close," Chen Guangcai also reacted.

Zhang Cheng coaxed everyone to tell everyone, this is nothing, this explosive package is still too simple, if you increase the amount of gunpowder, and then add thistle, pepper, and chili powder to it, the power will be greater, as for the distance, as long as the gunpowder is added to the bottom of the oil barrel, it can be twice as farther.

Chen Guangcai also came up with an idea, if the explosive package is changed to the shape of the warhead, reduce the resistance, the distance may be farther, the type of ammunition can also be subdivided according to the needs of the battlefield, as long as the ammunition is sufficient, it is not a problem to use it to attack the fortification, a drum and the structure of the bottom is only twenty or thirty kilograms, if you use a bucket truck to push it, you don't even need to dig a hole, simply strengthen the bucket truck, weld several movable steel pipes on the bucket truck, you can put it away in peacetime, put it down in wartime, and lie on the ground like an eight-legged fish, Then weld a bracket in front of the oil drum as a gun mount, put it down to open the gun, and it is possible to adjust the firing angle at any time, which is light and flexible, and cheap and applicable.

Chen Guangcai's imagination, Li Qinwen suddenly smacked his tongue, this thing is not good for large-scale field battles, but from the Yinping Mountain is surrounded by hilly areas, passing through the lofty mountains, if you lie on any hill and fire a few cannons at the little devils under the mountain, my obedient, one cannon will go down to a squadron, a squad will die, and so on, I have to calculate how many shells a division will have to finish.
