The battle reports from the front line have been sent continuously, and so far the plans of the former enemy headquarters have been implemented smoothly, and the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army has taken the bait, and it will be up to us to see if we can expand the results of the battle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The temporary headquarters of the reorganized 4th Division was in a hurry, and the confidential personnel and combat staff officers were going in and out very lively, when a "neighing" horse suddenly sounded outside, and an officer wearing a steel helmet and holding a shell gun turned over and dismounted and ran towards the headquarters of the 4th Division.
"Urgent Order!" The soldiers who had planned to come over to stop them were also accustomed to this kind of scene, and when they heard the people shouting like this, they immediately got out of the way and let the people in.
"Urgent order: launch a general attack immediately, and be sure to complete the annihilation of the besieged Japanese army before dark......"
Due to the shortcomings of the indiscriminate attack of radio signal jammers, although the troops on the front line forbade the telegraph exchanges between the Japanese troops in the encirclement and the headquarters of the 33rd Division, all the telegraph systems of the Eighth Route Army were completely paralyzed, and orders could only be transmitted by signal troops.
In order to completely annihilate the Japanese troops in the encirclement, the Eighth Route Army on the front line can be regarded as having invested enough money, and it is still a continuous artillery bombardment of three artillery regiments, but after this shelling, it is not an infantry assault, but hundreds of "artillery units" pushing strange cannons poured out from the troops participating in the assault.
To say that this cannon is really weird, the main feature is that the caliber of this cannon is large, the caliber of these weird cannons is as small as 300mm, and the larger ones may even reach 500mm, and the appearance is extremely rough.
With the order of a soldier who looked like a cadre, I saw dozens of smoke-emitting explosive packets flying quickly towards the Japanese position. Immediately after that, the entire town of Huajialing fell into a state of shaking and shaking, and the sound of violent explosions spread to more than ten miles away, and more than half of the houses in Huajialing Town collapsed in this round of shelling. As for the poor fortifications built by the Japanese army, they were not even as good as paper paste, and soon they were all in pieces.
After the first round of shelling, Liu Fengchi, who was in charge of the front-line command, did not send infantry to assault, but let the artillery regiment continue to shell for more than ten minutes, and then let the strange artillery carry out a second round of shelling, and the direct result of the continuous shelling for an hour was that the entire Huajialing Town was completely in ruins, and the remnants of the two Japanese infantry wings, an artillery brigade and two infantry regiments of the puppet North China Security Army in the town were all buried.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon of August 25, the reorganized Fourth Division and other troops finally completed the encirclement and annihilation battle of the Akiyama Division, in which the Eighth Route Army only suffered less than 600 casualties, while the more than 17,000 Japanese puppet troops were spared from the more than 6,000 battlefield uprisings, and the remaining more than 10,000 people were all killed, not even a single wounded.
And that kind of weird and powerful artillery once used, directly shocked the thousands of puppet troops who revolted on the battlefield, in order to completely deter these thousands of puppet troops who surrendered, after some discussion, Liu Fengchi decided to let these puppet soldiers go to Huajialing Town to clean up the battlefield.
The results of cleaning up the battlefield were very satisfactory, and after returning, in addition to digging up a large number of weapons and ammunition, he also seized two wing flags and important documents, including the code book that Ma Zheng had always wanted to get.
But the only pity is that I didn't catch a prisoner, the reason is that the whole battlefield is as miserable as Shura hell, there is hardly a complete corpse, and even if there is, there is not a single living person, so when those rebel puppet soldiers come back, they are extremely satisfied and glad with the decision of the previous battlefield uprising, if they continue to be stubborn to the end, maybe they will become a pile of flesh and blood now.
And all the officers and soldiers of the uprising are also very curious about the powerful artillery used by the Eighth Route Army, but because they have just rebelled, and the powerful artillery must be the military secret of the Eighth Route Army, even if they are curious, people will not tell them.
In fact, that kind of artillery is really nothing, at best, it is just a large iron oil drum and two iron wheels, and it has no technical content at all. This kind of artillery was made by Ma Zheng two years ago, and Ma Zheng named it "Cannon without Conscience".
Of course, such a creative weapon was naturally not Ma Zheng's own original, but he imitated the world-shaking iron army that was renamed the Chinese People's Liberation Army a few years later. This kind of artillery actually has its own scientific name, called "flying thunder cannon".
The "Flying Thunder Cannon" is a homemade weapon created by the People's Liberation Army. During the War of Liberation, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) had very few artillery, and when its weapons and equipment were inferior, the officers and men created a formidable weapon -- an explosive pack launcher that used gasoline barrels as barrels.
The main body of this weapon, also known as the explosive projectile, is an empty gasoline canister, which is filled with ******, and the explosive package bundled into a disc shape is put in, and then the ****** is ignited, and a dozen kilograms of explosive package can be ejected to a distance of 150-200 meters.
The caliber of the conscienceless cannon is absolutely amazing, and the caliber of the oil drum is as big as it is. The powerful blast of the huge explosive pack will blow up all the bunkers and people and horses in its pass. Many of the enemies who were blown down often did not find any wounds on their bodies, but they were bleeding from seven holes and were shocked to death. After figuring out the situation, the enemy simply called this kind of thing a "cannon without conscience".
Ma Zheng has always coveted this kind of thing as a conscienceless cannon, although this guy has many shortcomings, especially the firing range is only two or three hundred meters, and the shooting accuracy is also very poor. However, this kind of artillery is low in cost and simple in manufacturing methods, as long as there is a good quality iron oil drum.
In addition, the power of this kind of artillery is great, and the shells are relatively simpler and cheaper explosive packs, no matter how thick the pillbox is, as long as it is hit by this extra-large explosive pack, then even if the bunker cannot be blown up, the soldiers inside will be shocked to death, and this kind of artillery greatly makes up for the lack of artillery in the Suicha Military Region.
This is the second actual combat test of the unconscionable cannon, although it has also been tested on the training ground before, and Ma Zheng also used this thing when he was in eastern Hebei, but the effect is not ideal.
Later, Ma Zheng handed over the production principle of this artillery to Feng An, and asked him to take someone to redesign it to see if he could solve the shortcomings of the flying thunder cannon.
Today is the first time that the new flying thunder cannon has participated in actual combat, and it has shown tremendous power, which really surprised and delighted Liu Fengchi and others.
In fact, Ma Zheng didn't want to take out the conscienceless cannon now, after all, the manufacturing process of the conscienceless cannon was too simple, and it was easy for the Japanese army to find a way to crack it.
Moreover, the biggest role of the "unconscionable artillery" is not field warfare, but offensive operations. As far as the current situation is concerned, the tasks carried out by the Suicha Military Region are generally mostly defensive, so the role of the unconscionable cannon is limited.
However, Political Commissar Luo was very optimistic about this kind of artillery and was eager to know how this kind of artillery would perform in actual combat, so Ma Zheng equipped each of the three infantry brigades of the Fourth Division with 15 unconscionable guns.
Ma Zheng also knows the power of the unconscionable cannon, in the previous life, the People's Liberation Army encircled and annihilated the Huang Wei Corps in a big battle in the Huaihai Campaign, the Huang Wei Corps failed to attack and changed to defense, thinking that the PLA artillery fire was not strong, and he had no choice but to do it.
However, he never expected that the field defense bunker he had painstakingly managed would be in ruins by a heavy explosives package of the People's Liberation Army, and his dense defense would be even more vulnerable to the blow of the "Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers". Even the Kuomintang officers and soldiers who were captured after the war had to admit: "This earth thing is much more powerful than artillery." ”
In addition to firing explosive packs, it can also fire large rocks and cluster grenades, etc., and is very effective against enemy tanks, armored vehicles, field fortifications, and dense formations.
The success of the unconscionable cannon made Xu Hu and others on the front line extremely excited, and today only 30 such "giant cannons" were used to completely annihilate the two infantry wings of the Japanese army plus so many subsidiary troops, so far the troops on the front line of Wei County have annihilated nearly 19,000 Japanese puppet troops and captured nearly 19,000 people, such a huge result, even if they often win battles, Xu Hu and Liu Fengchi are also excited.
