"Attention guns! The enemy support point in front, the gauge ruler is 290, the direction is 010 to the left, the height is +2, the first ammunition is loaded, and the whole army shoots five rapid shots in one minute! Looking at the dense Japanese soldiers not far ahead, Duan Qirui quickly calculated the shooting Zhu Yuan, and immediately gave the order. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And because of the artillery itself, Duan Qirui's shooting Zhuyuan is not applicable to all artillery units.

Before the war, Duan Qirui divided the nearly 100 artillery pieces in his hand into ten companies according to the different conditions of each artillery, according to the caliber, the degree of newness and age, the muzzle velocity of the shells, etc.

Similarly, Duan Qirui's order only applied to one company, because according to previous training, the artillery commanders of each company were already familiar with this combat method.

The entire artillery was centered on a company, and each artillery company was deployed around a company within a specified distance around it. After Duan Qirui gave the design password, the commanders of those artillery companies would soon calculate how their company's artillery should be adjusted according to Duan Qirui's password.

This is a very simple formula, for example, the second company that is deployed directly behind the first company, they only need to adjust the height to +3, and the others have different adjustment methods according to different positions, which are calculated in advance.

In this way, it can be ensured that these 100 guns of different calibers can be sent to a demarcated range at the same time, and there will be no miscalculations or overlaps.

'Whoosh~~~~~~'

Hundreds of artillery pieces of all kinds, after receiving Duan Qirui's order, quickly adjusted their shooting Zhu Yuan, and the first company, as the most elite of the entire artillery and the company with the best artillery situation, naturally took on the vanguard task of the entire artillery.

Ten loud bangs broke out on the position of the company, and ten artillery pieces fired a salvo, and the position was instantly filled with wolf smoke.

Immediately afterwards, the other nine artillery batteries deployed nearby also opened fire almost simultaneously, sending the remaining ninety shells into the charging formation of the Japanese troops opposite.

"Yaga, the people of China have so many artillery!" Ono Nakaji looked up at the front of him, and scolded with some unhappiness in his mouth.

He had not received accurate information beforehand, and no one had told him that the people of China had hundreds of artillery pieces.

A large black dot was rapidly falling from the height, and those black dots were getting bigger and bigger, and they were getting closer and closer to the ground.

Ono Chuji was shocked in his heart, and then his pupils began to dilate, and his feet stepped back slightly. As a person who participated in the Sino-Japanese War, when he saw these black dots in the sky, he already knew that these shells would definitely fall into the area where he was.

Although it is true that recruits are afraid of artillery and veterans are afraid of machine guns, as a veteran with rich experience in warfare, he also knows very well what this situation means now?

'......Boom'

A violent explosion suddenly struck, the earth couldn't help but tremble, and the huge impact brought by the shells mercilessly blew the black earth out of deep craters.

In mid-air, there was black dirt everywhere, occasionally mixed with some stone fragments, and even worse, shrapnel hidden in it.

It can be said that at this moment, even the black dirt that was blown up and was emitting smoke could take away their lives.

Koji Nakano only felt that his body seemed to be suddenly lighter, and the whole person had a very strange feeling, that feeling, light and fluttering, as if he was flying, and the earth seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him, that feeling, which made people feel very wonderful, but also desperate.

Koji Nakano's eyes began to show fear, reluctance, and he knew that he would definitely not survive. Immediately after, Koji Nakano felt as if his body had been dragged from the air by force, and then slammed into the ground.

At the moment of landing, Koji Nakano's body finally received the most direct feedback, pain, that indescribable pain. It was as if all the internal organs had been torn apart, and his body, like a steak about to be fried, had been smashed flat with a hammer.

Immediately afterward, Koji Nakano lost consciousness.

He was not the first Japanese officer to die in this foreign land, nor was he the first Japanese officer to die before he could see the shadow of the enemy, but he was definitely not the last Japanese officer to die here.

Koji Nakano has ended his mission, but there are many more that are waiting for Koji Nakano to end their mission.

Due to the different calibers of the artillery on the Han side, the weight of the ammunition is also different, and in addition, the rate of fire and reloading speed of the artillery will also be different.

Except for the first firing that was quite unanimous, the rest of the time, these ten artillery batteries did not have a spectacular scene of firing a hundred guns.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, a message has come from the forward observation post requesting an extension of artillery fire." After receiving the news from the front-line observation post, a signal soldier quickly ran to Duan Qirui's side to report.

"Artillery fire extended?" Duan Qirui was slightly puzzled, just two rounds of shooting before the artillery fire was extended? Isn't it too fast? Although Duan Qirui had all kinds of doubts in his heart, he finally chose to believe the observation results of the front-line observation post, so he continued to order: "Command each company, after this round, the gauge is 295, and the height is +3. ”

Soon, Duan Qirui's order reached the various artillery companies.

The position where the first company is located is only less than a kilometer away from the farthest artillery position, and in such a modern environment, visibility is still very high.

In order to be able to convey the artillery instructions as soon as possible, or the instructions of the high command, many units have specially trained flag soldiers, which are not eight banner soldiers, but a kind of troop communication troops.

The flag soldiers will tell the commander's orders to the troops at all levels in the corresponding flag language, and then the flag soldiers of the troops at all levels will translate and relay them to the commanders at all levels, so as to make corresponding adjustments.

The extensive application of flag soldiers not only solves the speed of command transmission between troops, but also improves the combat efficiency of troops, which is obviously evident in the role of artillery.

After receiving Duan Qirui's order, the commanders of each company also adjusted the new shooting Zhu Yuan accordingly, and after the adjustment, they did not continue to wait for the order, but directly opened fire.

Recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of machine guns, this is just a legend. Perhaps before today, this statement was correct, but after today's battle, the soldiers of the 1st and 19th Divisions closest to the front line have a new feeling, who said that veterans are not afraid of artillery?

"My mother, if the grandsons of the artillery continue to fight like this, Lao Tzu won't even be able to eat meat." A division, a brigade, a regiment, a battalion, and a company commander He Xin lay in the newly dug trench bunker and looked at the battlefield in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but beat faster.

Not to mention the Japanese, even if you change countries at will, as long as you are an individual, it is impossible to survive such artillery fire.

Although the effect of the later salvo was not ideal, the scene was far less neat and spectacular than the first salvo. However, hundreds of shells fell into the corresponding target area one after another in less than ten seconds.

And in each area, there are corresponding shells to take care of, even if those infantry detect the drop of the shells, it is still difficult to dodge the shelling within ten seconds.

The artillery fire formed a web of death in front of the position of a regiment, and all enemy infantry who stepped into it would be devastated.

It can be said that a lump is lucky, but it is also unfortunate. Fortunately, they received full artillery support in the first round, and unfortunately, once the artillery shelling stopped, they would not be able to get artillery support here for a long time to come.

After all, they were facing the attack of an entire Japanese division, and on this kilometer-long front, a hundred artillery pieces could not support all places at the same time. Coupled with the use of artillery, this also led to the fact that there was only one regiment of defense areas on the battlefield that could be supported at a time.

As the main force, they naturally shoulder the heaviest tasks on the battlefield, and they naturally want to appear at the forefront of the battlefield.

After three rounds of shelling, the sound of artillery gradually stopped, and the position in front of the regiment gradually returned to calm. The artillerymen began to adjust their firing of Zhuyuan, and they were going to support other places.

Although the artillery of the Han army was not the most advanced, their tactics were the most advanced.

This tactic was a new type of tactic that emerged after World War II, and gradually eliminated the previous decentralized artillery tactics.

One of the advantages of this tactic is that when the artillerymen notice you, then it will be very difficult for you to get out of here alive.

But there is also a disadvantage to this tactic, that is, the artillery will inevitably waste a lot of shells, but the threat it can bring to the enemy will also be the greatest, both physical and psychological.

It is true that Wang Sirui did not follow the current conventional troop configuration and dispersed artillery in various divisions to provide them with fire support.

Instead, the artillery was concentrated together, and the cluster artillery tactics that emerged after World War II began to be used, and this artillery combat method did not have high requirements for the combat quality of artillery personnel, but the requirements for artillery commanders were very high.

They don't ask for a single cannon to hit the shells? Which target to destroy, they only need to send shells into an area and carpet bomb this area, which is also indiscriminate bombing by artillery. (To be continued.) )
