Chapter 169 Wolf Smoke Rises in the Pass Eleven
readx; As soon as he got these 1932 57 mm caliber anti-armor howitzers urgently transferred from Beiping, there is a saying that it is a mule that a horse pulls out to slip away, in order to test its power, Lao Tang immediately ordered people to move it to a place outside the range of the opponent, and let other soldiers dig a trench dedicated to artillery.

This gun is an imitation of the M1 type 57 mm battle defense gun, the whole body structure is very simple, together with the disassembly is foolish, a class of people (because the current Chinese are generally illiterate or semi-literate, primary school, high school, junior high school graduates are very sought-after in the army at that time, some technical equipment can not be played without a certain cultural knowledge base) can easily be disassembled into several parts in less than a quarter of an hour, but the original large-caliber heavy artillery is not a dozen mules and horses on the side, In addition, the weight of the battle defense artillery was only more than 1,200 kilograms, and one mule and horse could still be pulled, so the twelve guns were just matched with the twelve mules and horses, and the rest of the carts full of ammunition followed the mules and horses in front of them to the selected artillery position......
Half an hour was enough time to make all the preparations, and on the other hand, because they had not been patronized by artillery bombardment, the devils counted their losses under the command of the highest-ranking commander Wu Mu Hongyi, and found that in addition to a group of more than a dozen unlucky people who were directly hit by heavy artillery and the smoking devil soldier who was killed by a sniper rifle, none of the devils hiding in the anti-artillery trenches were missing, let alone missing arms and legs, and there was still a complete appearance, and the devils experienced half an hour of fear. The devils who have not waited for the shelling for a long time still do not dare to climb out of the safest trench at the moment, in their eyes, the devil knows if they will encounter the shell roll call again, who knows if there is a damn Chinese artillery cannon eyeline in this vicinity.
Under the repeated orders of the captain of Wu Mu, most of the devils still refused to climb out of the trench even half a step. For the sake of safety, the captain of the Wu Mu brigade divided the chariots in his hands into several groups and scattered them around the trenches, separated by less than three hundred meters.
Even if you lose your life and that of those infantrymen, you can't let the Imperial Kingdom's sharp weapons suffer any damage, which is made by the resources that have been plucked from the mouths of the navy, which usually does not deal with our army units, and it has taken several days and months to get it. Don't be foolproof!! Wu Mu Hongyi reminded himself repeatedly in his heart.
The sound of "Woo Woo ............" shells piercing the air sounded in the ears of the devils who stayed in the trenches, and the devils, who were more clever than the marmots on the steppe, hid in the simple anti-artillery holes that seemed to be easily collapsed with the tracked "Stalin's Hammer" heavy artillery cannon with a caliber of more than 200 millimeters.
Except for a few sentries in the trenches who were responsible for observing the outside world, there was no one who was stupid and stupid to stay in the empty trenches overhead, waiting for the enemy shells to arrive.
It's a pity that the 57 mm grenade is not as powerful as the 75 mm, 85 mm and 100 mm plus the above calibers of heavy artillery, the shell fell on the side of the devil's chariot and exploded, splashing metal fragments everywhere Ding Ding bell knocked on the shell of the devil's heavy chariot non-stop, and it was also thanks to the little devil's current ** C heavy chariot with rough skin and thick flesh, but it was just that the shrapnel cut through a little paint skin, and there was no substantial damage at all, otherwise it would have become a pair of burning scrap iron if it was replaced by ** type A and B. Not to mention the tank personnel such as Wu Mu Hongyi who stayed in the tank, having said that, such a small-caliber shell can only be a nightmare for personnel without any protection in the open field, and it has no effect at all in places with certain anti-artillery facilities.
No, now, it didn't even hurt the devils who were hiding in the anti-artillery holes and made turtles with shrunken heads. Twelve 57 anti-armor howitzers wasted two base shells each, but did not receive any results, and there was no use except to create countless small craters in a white snowy field.
"I said, Commander, those twelve cannons don't work very well." Lao Tang's nephew, who was holding a telescope to observe the results, could only shake his head speechlessly when he saw this kind of results, and said to Lao Tang, who was also holding a telescope to observe the results.
"You still need to say, I'll watch it." The expected result was unexpected, and Lao Tang put down the telescope in his hand with a gloomy face and replied angrily. Lao Tang thought that even if the twelve anti-armor howitzers were bad, they would at least make the little devils jump for a while, but in the end, this result made the old man feel very bad.
"Yo ho, these devils are much smarter than just now, and they are quite good at choosing a place to hide." It seems that the five big and three coarse are actually thoughtful, and the Mongolian man named Wuritu took off the military felt hat on his head, touched his short visible scalp hair with his big hand, and held back such a sentence with a half-loud sound.
"By the way, report to the commander, it seems that there is something else in these imported cannons, let's give it a try?" A logistics and transportation officer in charge of transporting equipment seemed to remember something, and he leaned forward and said to Lao Tang.
"What's that?" Wu Ritu didn't wait for Lao Tang to speak, stared at his pair of copper bell-sized eyes and looked at the logistics and transportation officer and asked.
"This ...... It seems to be a large explosive bag thrower like a trebuchet. "'Don't have that big eyes, it's scary.' Although the logistics and transportation officer was uncomfortable in his heart when he was so frightened, he didn't dare not say it in front of Lao Tang, and he pretended to think for a while before he stumbled and said.
“...... What about range power? "This time it was Lao Tang himself who was asking, he didn't care about how complex the so-called weapon was, he only knew one thing: only power and range mattered, and the others were ignored. He really wanted to figure out what made Xiao Liuzi mix this kind of antique thing into this group of cannons and sneak it over, why couldn't the young marshal send that thing over openly, didn't this so-called large explosive bag thrower not be as simple as it seemed? With these questions, Lao Tang stared at the logistics and transportation officer to see what he said.
"Ahem, it's said that trebuchets... Oh no, this large explosive bag thrower can completely destroy a solid target at less than two kilometers, but I don't know exactly how powerful it is. The implication of the logistics and transportation officer's words is: You better go to the back and see for yourself, I will deliver something. I don't know anything else, so don't ask me.
"Then what are you waiting to do, hurry up and get that or something over to extinguish the current Oriental little nose, when it's over, let's go back and stay on the hot and warm kang......" Wu Ritu was not happy to guess the so-called messy hints, he came out for many days and missed the warm kang in his heart, missed the mare's milk wine that pierced the intestines, and the tempting aroma can be put on the shoulder with a knife, and then a small piece of small pieces of steamed lamb meat with endless aftertaste in the mouth......
"Yo Xi, the people of China have no more cannons, and all the warriors of the empire have come out of the trenches to gather." The dizzy Wu Mu Hongyi opened the hatch above his head and leaned out half of his body to expose the turret, and after being blown by the biting cold wind a few times, his mind became clear: "The dense shells just now only have 57 mm caliber shrapnel, but there are no 75 mm mountain guns or heavy artillery shells of 100 mm caliber and above, which means that the opponent's cannon is gone, or their commander has been transferred." Thinking of this, Wu Mu himself became excited, and he imagined that he would bring his thousand-strong brigade and dozens of heavy chariots to the murderous slaughter of the numerous attackers who had lost their armor and unarmoured them. So his voice changed pitch with excitement and shouted loudly.
"Forty-seven squads, forty-five squads, thirty-nine squads, and one hundred and fifteen squads, each of your squads scattered with their own squads to search, and when they found the Zhina, they sent flares, and I will give you fire support! I don't need to say anything about it, you can do it yourself. Hearing the call of the self-master, the devils climbed out of the anti-artillery hole one by one, and the squad leaders and squadron leaders of the entire army almost trotted to Wu Mu's car to listen to the orders of His Excellency the high-spirited captain in front of him. The devils who were originally squatting in the trenches gathered in a relatively intact open space according to the squadron numbers of their respective squads.
"Hi Yi!!" The leaders of the four squads who were named said loudly as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, in fact, these guys had just suffered a very embarrassing shelling for them, and finally had the opportunity to ruthlessly clean up these hateful resisters who dared to throw shells on the heads of the Imperial Japanese Army......
