Chapter 15 Test Shots
Wenda hurried to his brother's camp, and Jiang Tao was bored staying in the cottage at this time, and began to think about how to solve the problem of aiming. There is no optical equipment in the www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion, and only the experience of the artilleryman itself can be relied on is the pen "Fun" Pavilion, if you can find an experienced enough artilleryman, according to his shooting results to make a ruler, it should have a lot of reference value.
Jiang Tao slapped his head, "It's broken, now there are no shells to try a fart!" "Hurry up and get into the carriage and gallop to the Fengtian Ordnance Factory." There must be one here. Jiang Tao prayed silently in his heart.
Jiang Tao, who rushed to the ordnance factory, found the location of the artillery shell workshop familiarly, and happened to meet an old acquaintance Hoffman, "Hey, Hoffman, are there 70mm shells here?" “
"70 mm, how can this strange caliber be!" Hoffman replied without hesitation, "I'm here to help your generals transform the French 75mm cannons to arm your army, do you want to come along?" Hoffman remembered Jiang Tao's talent and warmly extended an invitation.
"I'm sorry, Hoffman, I'm so busy right now that I don't have time to help you." Jiang Tao was a little disappointed when he heard it.
"What is Jiang Tao doing?" It's an old acquaintance again, and when he hears that loud voice, he knows it's Luneng. Jiang Tao told Luneng about his affairs, and he didn't expect Luneng to have any good solutions, but he had an unexpected surprise.
"70 mm, well, if you don't have a lot of them, I can help you figure out a way, and I can make a batch for you alone."
"Thank you so much, it won't be a hassle." Jiang Tao could be said to be overjoyed when he heard this.
"It's not a trouble when the trouble comes, it's just that you'll have to wait a while."
"Cheng, you make some first, according to the howitzer charge, I just happened to go out for something, and I'll come back later!" Jiang Tao borrowed a pen from Hoffman and drew the drawings of the cannonballs and handed them to Luneng.
"No problem, it's on me." Luneng looked at the drawings and slapped his chest with a thump.
Hurriedly bidding farewell to Luneng and Hoffman, Jiang Tao hurried to the garrison of the Wen army again, this time the Wen army must be training its soldiers.
Jiang Tao hurried along the way, and when he arrived at the barracks, he saw Wenda and Wenjun going out from the camp gate.
"Well, why are you here?" Wenda was very surprised to see Jiang Tao.
"You and I forgot, we didn't make shells!"
"Oops, let's forget about this." When Wenda heard this, he also found that he was so excited that he forgot about the cannonballs.
"What are you two playing dumb riddles? What a cannonball! Venda, you make it clear to me. ”
"Brother, Jiang Tao has saved up an arsenal by himself, no, a cannon we designed has been produced, and I want to try whether it works well or not, so I came to you to help find an old gunner." Wenda explained to Wen Jun.
"I'll just tell me why your kid suddenly told me that he wanted to learn shelling, and asked me to find you an experienced gunner, it turned out that this was the idea. Let's talk about what caliber. “
"I designed this gun, caliber 70 mm, but what is more peculiar is that it has a particularly wide firing angle, from -10 degrees to 75 degrees. It can be used as a howitzer and as a mortar for curved fire."
"What the hell, what kind of cannon are you, come on, don't look for anyone else, I've played with these land weapons in Germany as long as they're not too complicated, if you can trust me, let me try it."
"That's it." Jiang Tao and Wenda glanced at each other, nodded and returned in unison.
The civil army asked the adjutant to arrange the camp for training. Together with Wenda Jiangtao, he went to the ordnance factory to get shells.
"Hey, it seems that my Lao Lu's craftsmanship is not unfamiliar, before you come back, the shells are ready, not much, only 5 rounds, let's Lao Lu say do it." Luneng saw Jiang Tao teasing twice.
"Brother Lu, you are this. didn't say it," Jiang Tao gave a thumbs up.
The three of them loaded the shells on the car, and they did not shy away from the Wen army, Jiang Tao drove the car to the cottage.
Come to the cottage. "Put your stockade in front, and someone else will kill you with a single shot. There is a firepower point in the dark fort that you have built according to my arrangement, but can the main target be a little camouflaged! Wen Jun was very dissatisfied, thinking that Jiang Tao had ruined his design, if so, then he had to think about whether to hand over his younger brothers and sisters to him.
"Haha, even Brother Wenjun has been deceived." Jiang Tao and Wen Da were interested in seeing Wen Jun make a fool of himself, and they burst into laughter.
"What, isn't that your lair?" Wen Jun seemed to understand something.
"Let me bring Brother Wenjun to visit our cottage." Jiang Tao led Wen Jun to the back mountain, and also took him to visit his own valley.
"You kid actually deceived me, but you have to remember, the art of war must be correct thinking, remember that one force will be ten times, in the face of real strength, all strategies will not play a big role, you have to keep quiet now, I don't know how long the Japanese or the Russians can endure it, but you have to rely on the mountains, if you don't fight a positional war with them, there is a possibility of slow development." Wen Jun said to Jiang Tao earnestly.
Jiang Tao really couldn't help but tell Wen Jun about the "918 Incident" at this time, but it was his biggest secret to come through time, and he still didn't try to change the general trend of history when his strength was weak. If I can find a way to rescue the Wen army at that time, I have already changed a small history, and the wings I am flapping now will one day become a storm and change the course of history.
"Okay, don't talk so much now, what about your early cannons, drag them out and I'll take a look." Wen Jun didn't want to say more, so he changed the topic in time. Jiang Tao took Wenda and pushed out the Type 92 infantry gun.
"Oops, your cannon is really chic." Even if the Wen army saw the cannon, they were taken aback. "Why is your cannon so short, but the two of you can push it, which is quite suitable for small troops, but we also have mortars, which are lighter than this."
"Brother Wenjun, we can't compare with you, you still have large-caliber mountain artillery for flat fire, and veterans also play more mortars, but I don't have veterans, besides, I can shoot flat and curved fire, I can hit any target at a certain distance, the power is not worse than 80 mm mortars, and flat fire is easy for recruits to master! As for this short appearance, I don't fight head-on, hide it and smoke it to give people a shot or two, and run away after the fight, isn't it very cost-effective! “
"What you said makes sense, but the mule or the horse still has to be pulled out and slipped, give me a few shots to try!" Wen Jun consciously squatted on the side of the gun and adjusted the angle.
"I'll try flat shooting first, and you guys go draw a target." Jiang Tao listened and ran to the distance with lime and drew several targets at different distances in a row.
When Jiang Tao came back after drawing the target, the Wen army, who had already been unable to hold back, aimed at the target and opened fire. I only heard a "bang" and a splash of earth and rocks in the distance. Wen Jun tried two more shots, raised his head and said, "Your cannon is really not bad, the accuracy is not bad, it is just right for recruits to use." I'll try its attacking ability again, and you can use it in the future to fight the turret, I don't know how to fight the building. ”
The Wen army adjusted the muzzle of the cannon, aimed at a rock in the distance and fired two cannons, only to see the stone powder diffuse, and after waiting for a while, I saw that there was a pit on the rock that was not big or small. "Hey, it doesn't seem to be very powerful. It's also that I'm too demanding, you don't have a sight for this cannon, so you can only shoot according to the shooting elements, and I'll write this for you. I'll take your cannon back first, don't be afraid that I'll take it privately. Wen Jun, who saw the result, shook it and smiled bitterly twice.
