Chapter 69.Type 92 Infantry Gun

Artillery is the god of war, this is a passage that Stalin once said. This is a praise for artillery and an affirmation of the irreplaceable role of artillery in warfare. Since the invention of stone-shooting artillery, the once dense formations, as well as the strong fortifications, have slowly withdrawn from the stage with the gradual development of artillery.

In particular, the famous First World War, in which almost the entire world was involved, finally made a big move, and the whole world was swept up in darkness and blood. However, in the various participating countries, the casualties of soldiers were not caused by individual combat weapons, and almost 80 percent were directly or indirectly caused by artillery.

The Second World War, which can also be said to be a continuation of the First World War, after decades of scientific and technological development, not only a variety of excellent and terrifying tanks and planes appeared, but also artillery with the development of science and technology, becoming more and more powerful, more and more suitable for today's warfare.

All kinds of howitzers, cannons, anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank guns, and mortars have appeared on the stage of history, from small-caliber artillery of more than 10 millimeters, to large-caliber artillery of more than 100 millimeters, and even super-large-caliber artillery of more than 200 millimeters and more than 300 millimeters, as well as the terrifying caliber of hundreds of millimeters.

Nearly cheap shells, efficient lethality for infantry, and powerful damage, artillery is the most important and quite loved weapon for any unit. Especially for a unit that uses pure infantry as an attacking force, artillery support is even more important. And this is also the reason why Li Yu chose to exchange for an artillery.

"Just use this cannon sound to make Ukraine tremble!"

Li Yu squinted slightly, and he sat in the shadow of a house, quietly holding his Mosin Nagant rifle, looking out the window at the open space that was hundreds of meters long. But he couldn't help but turn his head slightly, and looked at the corner of the room, as if he had penetrated the planks and masonry, and saw a small hill not far away.

This is his killer weapon this time, although it is artillery, but for him now, that artillery is quite important. He didn't choose a light machine gun, he didn't choose a heavy machine gun, because he knew what his next battle would be, so he made this choice.

On that small hill, in the midst of the dense bushes and groves, a cannon that looked almost small and delicate was sitting there, the gun carriage had been lowered, the seemingly short barrel had been slowly cocked, and only the black hole of the cannon was left facing the sky, waiting for the five men on either side who were half-kneeling to pull the bolt and prepare to fire.

In the foreground, one of the half-kneeling fellows was holding a telescope, gently sweeping the open field outside the collective farm outside the hill, and after finding no target, he moved the telescope's gaze to a house, and through the window, a Red Army soldier in a Soviet-style military uniform and a Mosin Nagant rifle in his hand could be faintly seen, looking ahead and waiting.

"The task given to us by Comrade Levsky, we must not take lightly."

When he saw that there was no movement, he finally slowly put down the telescope in his hand, looked coldly at the four companions behind him, his short body slowly retreated a few steps, stared at them and said solemnly: "This is our first battle, for the sake of Levsky's ambitions, even if we are jade shattered, we must complete the task!" ”

They were all dressed in khaki overcoats, with dark green steel helmets on their heads, and rifles almost the height of them in their hands. They all had a serious look on their faces, and even looked at the house at the foot of the mountain, with a sense of sacredness in their expressions as if they were pilgrimages.

If the Asians of later generations were here, they would all be horrified when they looked at them. Even if people from certain countries are here, they can immediately feel angry in their hearts. But even the people of this world, seeing their appearance, can be extremely suspicious, because they can't come to the heart of Europe, or this area of the Ukrainian border!

The Empire of Japan, the only great power in the Far East in its current era. Since 1904, when Japan took advantage of the quagmire of Tsarist Russia in World War I, brazenly launched the Russo-Japanese War and won a near-crushing victory at an extremely heavy cost, it is also the only Asian country that can be seen by European countries.

However, as the most civilized Asian country at that time, the Japanese Empire did not lead Asia to glory, but launched a series of wars, causing great pain to the Asian people, and almost all Asian countries experienced its atrocities and experienced its madness.

In particular, Li Yu, who came as a republic, understood that these guys are now on the same level as the current government of the Republic of China in the Far East, and have even waved troops to attack Jinzhou and are launching their Manchurian strategy plan. Li Yu knows very well that in less than a few months, the entire three northeastern provinces will fall under the policy of non-resistance of the loser!

And in the next few years, in 1937, a full-scale war will also break out in full force after the fierce battle on that bridge, and the most prestigious ancient country in the entire Far East will be defeated on all fronts because of the ruling party's almost muddy ** at this time, and the artifact will almost be lost in the hands of Yidi, and Kyushu will be handed over to others.

But the Japanese infantry who came to this world will no longer be the crazy beasts of their previous life, and they will no longer believe in the emperor they originally thought of. Or in their hearts, the position of the emperor has long been replaced by Li Yu, and what they absolutely believe in is Li Yu!

But Li Yu still recruited five Imperial Japanese Army, because only Japanese soldiers at this time could use that artillery quite proficiently. Because after this artillery comes out, almost all of Li Yu's tactics will revolve around this artillery!

Type 92 infantry gun, one of the most classic artillery guns in World War II in the Japanese Empire, 70mm caliber, weight 212 kg, height of 620mm, can use 70mm high-explosive shells, grenade bombs, smoke screen shells, the lowest angle of fire -10 degrees, the maximum angle of fire 80+ degrees, the range of fire range 4 to 5 degrees, the maximum range of 2788 meters, the minimum range of 100 meters!

This is the artillery that Li Yu exchanged, and it is also the most perfect and realistic artillery he can think of so far! The Type 92 infantry gun is almost as famous as the Japanese Type 38 rifle, although the firepower and power are not ranked at all in the European theater of World War II, but for Li Yu, who can only fight guerrilla warfare at present, it is like an artifact!

Anyone who knows the history of World War II cannot deny the various advantages of this gun. With its simple structure and extremely light weight, a few people can run around the mountains with this artillery after disassembly, which can be called a sharp weapon for guerrilla warfare! Moreover, the direct shot can be used as a cannon, the curved fire can be used as a howitzer, and the vertical fire can be used as a mortar, which gives this artillery a terrifying combat capability.

In particular, the highest height is only half a meter, hidden in the dense bushes as howitzers and mortars, and the suddenness and explosiveness of its fire support, as well as concealment, provide timely support firepower to their own troops, and hide themselves well, which is simply admirable!

And at present, in the marginal areas of Ukraine, where there are many hills and groves, this kind of artillery, when used, can inflict powerful damage on any enemy! In particular, the high-explosive bomb used, with a weight of 3.8 kilograms, brought super damage within more than ten meters, and its effect on the Soviet Union's habitual wave charge and dense crowd charge was simply extraordinarily significant!

"Some of the Japanese who appeared on the European soil, and some of the Ukrainians who rebelled against the Soviets."

Just inside the house, Li Yu's eyes couldn't help but narrow, he thought of the huge but bloated country in the Far East, thinking of the political party that was still struggling in the mountains, and thinking of the hungry wolf that was baring its fangs and was unabashedly peeking at the Central Plains Shenzhou, Li Yu gently lowered his head and showed a weird smile: "Just let the world slowly become chaotic!" ”

PS1: Let me explain a little first, the Japanese soldiers we recruited here are all completely loyal to the protagonist, and those Soviet soldiers are the same, after all, this is a system flow, I hope you don't have emotions after watching it. And I also had foreshadowing for this group of Japanese soldiers in the later period, after all, it is impossible for us not to help on the Chinese battlefield, and this group of Japanese soldiers has miraculous results.

PS2: Regarding the discussion of how a certain party in the book review area is, in fact, I don't think it's necessary, if you look historically, a certain party is already very strong. Bringing a bronze five directly to the top five of the strongest kings has completely defeated any previous dynasty and government. By the way, about a certain Republic of China, cough cough, not to mention anything else, the same soldiers, in the hands of a certain party, can sweep the United ** to the 38th parallel in North Korea, and fight a real positional war, and in the hands of a certain Republic of China, it is thought-provoking.

PS3: Is this a double change? Damn, I can't believe I'm double-shifting... Well, I admit to seeing that the letter "Vladimir" has been tipping me, I myself feel ashamed... Ahem, I'll try to update it...
