"Don't kneel, quick!" Seeing that the plane wanted to land, Liu Chunfang hurriedly shouted, raising his hand high and waving it at several soldiers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The plane was so big that it was like a mountain that pressed down, and like the people who were burning the fire, the soldiers in charge of making the smoke fell to their knees with a puff. Liu Chunfang shouted here, and the soldiers who had practiced dozens of times hurriedly poured water on the fire and covered the soil, and soon, the raging fire turned into puffs of white smoke, which were stretched by the north wind, providing the driver with the most primitive weather vane.

"Good! Okay very! Huang Hanguang on the No. 1 plane shouted, and then pressed down the nose of the plane and began to land. When the fuselage touched the water, the splash extinguished most of the fires on both sides of the canal, and the people kneeling on the ground were also half doused, but they did not dare to move at all, and only dared to raise their heads until the plane rumbled past.

The plane taxied more than 700 meters in the 10 major canals before stopping its advance, but it did not stop, but continued to taxi forward for more than 400 meters to make way for the follow-up planes to land. In the short period of more than ten minutes when Fu Zuoyi and Zhong Qiangong rode their horses to the canal, the No. 2 and No. 3 planes also landed safely. At this time, Liu Chunfang commanded the soldiers of the cavalry regiment to start extinguishing the fire according to the plan, which was worried that the Japanese planes would fly in at night to bomb.

The fire went out little by little, but the darker it was, the more huge the three 314 water cargo planes became, and the more I looked at the iron-blooded eighteen star logo on the fuselage, the more I felt that it was a black thorn, and the nine black horns on the outer edge of the thorn seemed to be not a little yellow star, but a cluster of fire. It is indeed firelight, Fu Zuoyi is not mistaken, the iron-blooded eighteen-star flag used by the navy has been improved, and the original round yellow dots Li Kongrong thought that they were doughy and lifeless, so the nine yellow dots on the inside became intermittently connected yellow fire rings, and the nine yellow dots on the outside were all changed to yellow flames. The thick blood-colored flag and the rough dark black edges made the eighteen orange flames move abnormally, which symbolized the endless and eternal blood of Yan Huang.

"Who's in charge here?" As the flames gradually extinguished, Captain Huang Hanguang opened the side door of the cockpit of the plane, looked at the figure on the canal bank and asked loudly. He originally wanted to shout Zhong Qiangong's name, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he had to ask who was in charge.

"I'm in charge." Several voices came out at the same time, Liu Chunfang and Wang Ren both answered, and Zhong Qiangong, who was farther away, shouted: "Is it Captain Huang Hanguang?" I'm Zhong Qiangong. ”

"It's me, sir." Huang Hanguang was relieved when he heard Zhong Qiangong's name, "Please send a ship over." He shouted.

There were no boats in the canals, but there were quite a few sheepskin rafts. After a while, Huang Hanguang was taken to the canal, wearing a leather jacket specially made for naval pilots, and he was very energetic. "Xiaguan has seen Major Zhong."

"I'm not a major, I'm a captain." Zhong Qiangong was a little puzzled, he couldn't see Huang Hanguang's military rank clearly in the dark, but he called himself a major, that was wrong, he was just a captain.

"Sir, you have been promoted, and I have specially brought your promotion documents this time, as well as new epaulettes and collar badges." Huang Hanguang couldn't help but smile when he said -- there was no news for a month, and the Navy General Headquarters thought that Zhong Qiangong had died and that he had been promoted to one rank after sacrificing his duties in the line of duty. Now that people have appeared again, it is naturally not good to be demoted again.

"Okay, okay, congratulations to Brother Depei on his promotion." Fu Zuoyi and Chen Bingqian had just come over, and they couldn't help but be happy for Zhong Qiangong. Congratulations on Zhong Qiangong, Fu Zuoyi said to Huang Hanguang again, "Where is Brother Huang from, do you smoke?" Suixi is too far away, you have worked hard. ”

Huang Hanguang is the country. People in the military system, as soon as they heard Fu Zuoyi's words, they knew that this should be a senior official, and it was estimated that he was a general. He is a nation. The usual tone of the military subordinates said: "Thank you to the commander for remembering that the post is not hard." ”

"This is the deputy commander of the Eighth Theater and the commander of the 35th Army, General Fu Zuoyi." Zhong Qiangong solemnly introduced Fu Zuoyi to Huang Hanguang, which made Huang Hanguang immediately salute. "This is Lieutenant General Chen Bingqian, deputy commander of the 35th Army." After introducing Fu Zuoyi and Chen Bingqian beside him, Zhong Qiangong said to Fu Zuoyi again: "Chief Fu, this is Captain Huang Hanguang of the Naval Aviation, and his current position is the deputy head of the staff group of the HNA China Theater, and he is specifically responsible for formulating and implementing the ground cooperative operation plan in the theater. ”

"Ground-based coordination?" Fu Zuoyi muttered this word, not very understanding.

"It is to assist the countries in the theater from the air. Army combat. Huang Hanguang explained that this was one of the purposes for which he came to Suiyuan. At present, the navy and Chongqing have reached a preliminary agreement to allow naval aircraft to enter the country for combat. The Navy has not only fighter jets, but also attack aircraft. These attack aircraft can be used for ground attacks. If conditions in Suixi are feasible, the naval air force can also support the 35th Army in operations. ”

"It's true?!" Fu Zuoyi's hands trembled, and he immediately lost his voice.

"It depends on the time of the operation, but also depends on the conditions, whether it is suitable for support operations." Huang Hanguang was about to elaborate here, when Liu Chunfang and Wang Ren ran over, and Wang Ren said, "Chief Huang, are you unloading the goods now?" ”

"If you have a ship, you can unload it. The hatch is at the tail of the aircraft, and the baffle can be driven down, and those who go up can listen to the command of the personnel on board. Huang Hanguang said about unloading, and when he said this, he took out a list, "This is the manifest, you can count it when you unload, and sign it if there is no problem." Then there were only 700 rounds of artillery shells on the second ship. The shells are too heavy, a few kilograms a round, plus the packaging is ten kilograms, only 700 rounds can be loaded, and there is not enough fuel to worry about not being able to fly back. ”

"What?! Shells have eight kilograms a round? "Whether it's Fu Zuoyi, Chen Bingqian, or Zhong Qiangong, they were all shocked when they heard the words. Fu Zuoyi preemptively asked, "Captain Huang, what kind of cannon is this?" ”

"It's an American-made M1 75mm howitzer." Huang Hanguang said the official name on the box. "You will know when you unload it, the people in the Ordnance Department said that this is a good gun, simple and practical, especially suitable for the Chinese theater of operations."

The cannon really had to be unloaded to know that as soon as the day dawned, Major General Liu Zhenxing, the commander of the 25th Artillery Regiment dug from the Jin army, assembled a howitzer according to the diagram on the English manual, and after firing a few shells, he rushed to Fu Zuoyi and shouted: "It's really a good cannon, it is farther than the mountain artillery, almost three kilometers away; The weight is not large, the dismantling is similar to the mountain artillery, the key is that the shells are heavy, and the crater blown up is larger than the field artillery. Commander, can we ask them more? ”

"How much?" Fu Zuoyi, who had talked to the navy, smiled bitterly, "It's not impossible to have more." But people say that artillery shells are difficult to transport, one plane can only transport 700 shells at a time, how can you only have artillery without shells? ”

"Commander, when have we fought more than a hundred shells? That is, when he was guarding Xinkou, he fought against the Japanese. Liu Zhenxing talked about the past three years ago, when he was the deputy commander of the artillery and personally commanded the artillery battle. The report to the central government was 40,000 rounds of artillery shells, but there was no such number at all, and everyone did not know Chairman Yan's temper, and he doubled the report so that the central government could replenish him with artillery shells. Although there is an artillery regiment on our side in Suixi, there are no more than 20 cannons that can really be used with confidence, even if they are only used to shoot a few cannons before the battle, so that the soldiers can listen to the sound, not to mention that each cannon is equipped with 700 shells, even if it is equipped with 200 rounds, it is enough. ”

The 25th Artillery Regiment was pulled from Yan Xishan, and according to the establishment, there were 36 Jin mountain-building guns, but everyone knew what the quality of the Jin mountain-building guns was, and the shells were even more lacking. Of course, Fu Zuoyi wanted more artillery, such as giving himself another battalion of eighteen cannons, and thirty-six cannons could be formed into an artillery regiment. But the problem is not that simple. He got up and closed the door, and asked Liu Zhenxing, who was a little excited, to sit down, "This cannon is made in the United States, tens of thousands of miles away, what if you can't buy the shells and run out?" ”

"Don't they buy it even if they have the money?" Liu Zhenxuan seemed to understand Fu Zuoyi's worries, and his voice was much quieter.

"I don't know." Fu Zuoyi said, "I talked to them again just now, the shells are too heavy and unlucky, and they can only guarantee 500 shells per cannon for these eighteen cannons." I asked how much the shells and guns cost, and they said they didn't know, and in the end, they said that the shells were rounded up and we were given 10,000 rounds. Eighteen cannons, 10,000 shells, this is already a lot of money, we haven't seen an inch, and we haven't helped them anything, why am I embarrassed to ask people for cannons again? ”

"Commander," the door was closed, but Chen Bingqian pushed it open, and he said, "Quick, come and see, come and see." ”

"What's wrong?" Fu Zuoyi didn't know why, and saw that Chen Bingqian had mud on his body again, "Wrestling?" He asked.

"It's okay, I'm okay. You come and see. Chen Bingqian pulled Fu Zuoyi and walked out, talking as he went. A counteroffensive is expected, and we are expected to counterattack. ”

What made Chen Bingqian feel that the hope of the counterattack was the 500 bazookas, and after unloading and concealing the planes, all the naval personnel went to sleep, and all the weapons that were thrown to Liu Chunfang were the instructions for the use of weapons, and there were also a few reels of film tape. Chen Bingqian was watching a movie just now, and the first thing he saw was, of course, the teaching of the American-made M1 75mm howitzer, then the explanation of the use of the MG-34 machine gun, and finally the bazooka.

"Quick, upside down, upside down." The movie was over, and Chen Bingqian had no choice but to shout rewind. But no one can fast-forward the rewind, so the movie had to be replayed. In a dark, lightless room, the light from the projector shines directly on a white cloth. First, a large subtitle: conventional weapons instructional film, Chinese version. Then a young soldier in a military uniform jumped out, speaking in the official dialect of the north, first introducing his name, but not mentioning the military branch and rank. Then the camera flashed, and an assembled M1 howitzer appeared in the canvas, this person first introduced the structure and performance of the artillery, then began to disassemble and assemble the artillery, followed by the introduction of the shells, and finally the test firing - a group of soldiers in camouflage were operating the artillery, it was obvious that they were six guns and a company, but the shelling order was shouted in foreign language, in the rumbling smoke and dust, the cannon body beat violently, white light continued to spew out from the muzzle, and in the distance, the shells were blown up by the shells and a handful of sand.

"It's like it's in the desert." Zhang Liu Zhenxing, the commander of the artillery regiment, spoke out at this time, he was worried that he would not be able to master the performance of American artillery in a short time, but now that there is this teaching film, everything is very simple.

Liu Zhenxin spoke, but no one answered, even Liu Chunfang, who had seen it once. Just when he thought that the introduction of artillery was coming to an end, the effects of artillery bombardment began to be introduced in the movie. It was then that he realized that the target area was not just a cross, but that there were several types of targets: those in the open field, those hidden in the trenches, and the permanent fortifications, all of which were wooden dummies, wearing military uniforms and steel helmets. The narrator begins to elaborate on the effects of shelling in various situations, and zooms in on the lessons learned, such as how many grenades are needed to destroy ordinary field fortifications, how to shell enemy troops in open air, and how many shells are needed to break a gap in barbed wire.

"Brother Zhen, these things are useful, right?" Seeing this, Chen Bingqian turned his head and asked, he felt that this was very useful.

"Useful, very useful. This is simply a hand-in-hand teaching people to shoot cannons. Liu Zhenxin was shocked by the explanation of the effects of the shelling, even if he was an old artillery officer, he was not very proficient in some of the doorways, let alone a new artillery. When he wanted to listen any longer, the music began to play, and the MG-34 machine gun began to be introduced in the movie. The introduction of machine guns is similar to howitzers, and the shooting effect will be judged, and the experience of using machine guns will be summarized. In the end, it was Chen Bingqian who wanted Fu Zuoyi to see, an RPG bazooka.

The bazooka docent is different from the howitzer and machine gun docent, not only the person is different but also the gender is different, this is a woman. If you research, you will find that the filming locations are also different, howitzers and machine guns were filmed in the California desert in the United States, and the narrator is a Marine who can speak Chinese; The bazooka was filmed in Baoma, Switzerland, and the docent was the wife of a researcher in the laboratory. The film does not introduce the principle of the bazooka, only introduces the method of use, first at the fixed target, the cylinder on the narrator's shoulder flashed, the white smoke burst out, the cannonball aimed at the target and flew over, boom, the huge wooden target exploded into pieces.

"Is this a cannon or a cannon?" Fu Zuoyi spoke, and he asked Liu Zhenxing, the commander of the artillery regiment.

"Ahh I, I didn't see it clearly. Liu Zhenxuan was also stunned, this kind of weapon subverted his common sense, if it is not a cannon, it must be a cannonball that flies out, how can it blow up such a big target if it is not a cannonball? But if it's a cannon, why can a tube be fired? The tube could still be split into two sections, and it was not strong at all, and it had no recoil.

Liu Zhenxing said that he didn't see it clearly, and the white smoke and fire on the canvas flashed again, because it was a close-range shooting, and this time he saw it clearly: a cannonball exploded at the mouth of the pipe, but the cannonball flew a few meters and began to fly by itself. "Not a cannon, not a cannon. This is ......" Liu Zhenxuan stammered, and it took him a lot of effort to remember a familiar thing, and blurted out: "This is a foreigner's second kick." ”
