Chapter 1212: An eye-opener
"Spring rain, who said that artillery is not powerful if it is small? Come, I'll open your eyes! ”
Chen Hai replied, "Come on, pull out two mortars and conduct a drill!" ”
Chen Hai gave an order, and the artillerymen on the side pulled out the two mortars and came to an open field. Vertices M. updates the fastest
Chen Hai said: "Spring rain, I'll let you see the power of this mortar!" Someone, six hundred meters away, dig a trench for me, about six or seven meters long, as deep as a trench, and pile sandbags for me outside! ”
A group of fighters from the engineering battalion ran over, and in just half an hour, a trench appeared in front of everyone.
"Ready, adjust the shooting of Zhuyuan, the target, the opposite trench, six shots in a row!"
Chen Hai ordered.
Several artillerymen quickly adjusted their firing points, locked onto the target, and then began to shoot!
A shell stuffed into the mortar and flew towards the trench!
Rumble! Rumble!
The two shells made a high arc and fell into the trench almost simultaneously, and there was a violent explosion, followed by several shells, and in the trench, there was a continuous explosion.
The shelling stopped.
Chen Hai smiled: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!" ”
Yan Chunyu and the others followed Chen Hai to the side of the trench, and at this time, Yan Chunyu and other generals saw the tattered situation of the trench, and they all gasped!
Six of the ten shells fell in the trenches, and the rest fell on the periphery of the trenches, but only six shells were enough, and the entire trench was blown up beyond recognition by the shells, and the entire trench was scorched with dirt!
This, this......
Yan Chunyu has experienced a hundred battles, so he naturally knows very well about artillery shells and trenches, especially the trench fortifications of the Chinese People's Army, which are the best offensive to dodge artillery shells, and the huge bevel section can protect the safety of the soldiers to the greatest extent.
But these shells actually hit directly into the trenches, don't underestimate them, only six shots hit the trenches, if it is an ordinary shell, it would be good to be able to have one shot fall into the trenches, after all, even if the gunners with hundreds of shots want to hit the shells into the trenches at a long distance, it is also very rare, after all, the width of the entire trench is only about one meter, as for the trench fortifications, there are oblique sections as cover!
In the wars with Britain, France, Russia and other countries, the Chinese People's Army was invincible, and the trench fortifications played a huge role, which could effectively avoid the explosion of artillery shells and minimize casualties! Well, now, this mortar, which looks inconspicuous at all, can directly hit the shells into the trenches, not to mention ordinary trenches, even trench fortifications, will face a huge threat!
"I'm a good man, why is the trajectory of this shell so large? This...... This thing must not fall into the hands of foreigners! ”
Yan Chunyu exclaimed.
Chen Hai shook his head and replied: "Chunyu, don't think about it, any military weapon, military thought, will spread to the whole world over time, whether it is our rear-loading repeating rifles, or heavy machine guns, or trench fortifications, sooner or later the enemy will learn, this mortar is no exception, what we can guarantee is to be one step ahead of the enemy, develop more advanced weapons, or invent more powerful fortifications, so as to ensure that we are invincible, as for the blockade, It's not going to make a difference......"
Yan Chunyu was silent for a while, Chen Hai was right, no weapon can stop the destruction of time, and sooner or later it will be learned by various military powers.
Chen Hai continued: "The reason why I let the cavalry go to Boli is because these mortars are small in size, light in weight, and can travel quickly even if they are directly tied to the war horse, which is extremely convenient, and the cavalry will go out day and night, and it will not take a few days to reach Boli, and when the time comes, hide it, reconnoiter the position of the Left Route Army, and wait for the opportunity to kill their ships, hehe, as long as they kill their ships, without ships, the Russian army can only nest in the narrow area south of the Heilongjiang River and west of the Ussuri River, We wiped them all out in one fell swoop......"
Yan Chunyu stretched out his thumb and replied: "High, high, Xiaohai, you can come up with such a bad idea, this is planning to eat all the more than 100,000 Russian troops in one go......"
Chen Hai said with a smile: "Blame them for being too arrogant, let go of a good life, but have to invade our Chinese Empire, this time not to completely cripple Tsarist Russia, they still can't recognize our power, this time not only to wake up the old Maozi of Tsarist Russia, but also to wake up Britain and France and other powerful countries, tell all the powerful countries, in the future, the Chinese are something they can't afford to provoke!" ”
"Okay, that's it!"
Chen Hai continued: "Okay, Dong Zhixian, the target of dispatching two cavalry regiments is too big, but it is inconvenient for you to act, change the plan, you lead the cavalry regiment under your command to act, bring thirty mortars, five hundred mortar shells, first familiarize yourself with the performance of mortars, today and tomorrow, in Shuangchengzi, put a few more artillery, this mortar is still different from howitzers, don't come then, the artillery is brought over, you * for Lao Tzu to shoot the shells to the sky, then it will be a shame!" ”
Hahaha......
The crowd burst into laughter.
Dong Zhixian's face turned red and replied: "Don't worry, the chief can't blow up Lao Maozi's ship, I won't come back to see you!" ”
Chen Hai nodded, looked at Xu Xiangfei again, and ordered: "Xiang Fei, starting tomorrow, prepare to build a pontoon bridge from the top of the Ussuri River, in two days, the pontoon bridge must be built for me, after completion, the three cavalry regiments will cross the Ussuri River first to protect the pontoon bridge." After that, the infantry and artillery passed quickly, and in five days, all six divisions had to cross the Ussuri River and prepare for a decisive battle with the Russian right army! ”
"Six divisions?"
Yan Chunyu was stunned and said, "Xiaohai, aren't we seven divisions?" ”
Chen Hai said angrily: "Now that the first division has suffered more than one-third casualties and serious battle losses, do you still want them to continue to fight hard?" The order went down, and the 1st Division continued to stay in Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok, and even the 1st Cavalry Regiment stayed behind to protect the safety of Vladivostok! ”
He Zheng, who was on the side, became anxious when he heard this, and shouted: "Chief, I won't do it!" Why? Is it because we have suffered a lot of war losses? It is precisely because of our heavy losses in the war that we have to fight, and we must avenge the sacrificed soldiers! ”
Chen Hai's face sank, and he shouted: "I can't help you, the military order is like a mountain!" You give me an honest stay in the Twin Cities! Recuperate, you can still participate in battles in the future, dare to be disobedient, Lao Tzu will order someone to tie you back to Beijing City now! ”
He Zhengdeng wilted, and the official level crushed people to death......
Chen Hai sighed: "Okay, everything is almost ready, let's wait for Huanzhang's Seventh Army to come up, and then we will start a full-scale siege of Lao Maozi!" ”
