At night, there seemed to be thousands of fireflies flying in the night sky on the beach, and it was a spectacular scene of thousands of retreating coalition soldiers smoking, the flashes of cigarette butts flickering brightly and dimly!

When there were no ships, the tattered kings of the Naval Resistance Army began to move again, and what anti-aircraft guns, heavy machine guns, shells, and even motorcycles were transported to the Liberty Ship by boat. It's like madness. And the British light tank Matilda collected on this day is a full fifty, which is really similar to grabbing money.

The situation on the beach was quite different from the previous days, the tattered kings of the Naval Resistance Army did not even have to walk two kilometers, and there were weapons and ammunition everywhere. The Rag Kings don't even look down on brand-new rifles now, and they pick up good things to transport.

This is because the civilian ships that Britain openly called for began to arrive one after another and played a role, the retreat of the British and French forces began to accelerate, and the situation on the beach was very good for the Maritime Resistance Army, but the situation on the sea was extremely unfavorable for the Maritime Resistance Army.

One is that the Maritime Resistance Force can only send out one landing craft to transport weapons, and the other seven ships are used to ferry people. The second is that the German shore artillery and army artillery fire in the port of Calais began to block the shipping lane.

Li Guang was very depressed, there were frightening weapons and equipment accumulated on the beach, but they just couldn't be transported to the Liberty Wheel. Li Guang did not fail to consider the battleship's attack on the port of Calais, but it was undoubtedly an egg to hit a stone if he wanted to rely on the pickup destroyer to fight the German artillery group. Soon Li Guang thought of the fifteen heavy guns piled up on the beach of Dunkirk.

The number of artillery pieces collected by the Naval Resistance Army in a few days was as high as three or four hundred, but the French 75mm guns accounted for more than half of them.

The weight of the French 75mm gun is not large, only 1200kg, and it can barely be reached by manpower, and this gun is the first weapon to be transferred. Known as the first power in the European Army, the French still have a lot of sophisticated weapons. Among the French artillery families, the most famous is the M1897 Type 75mm field gun. It is simply a model for 75mm guns in various countries, and has been copied by countless manufacturers.

Even so, the remaining artillery pieces amounted to more than a hundred, but not many could reach the Calais, and heavy artillery was especially lacking.

In World War II, in any country's army, long-range heavy cannons are strategic weapons, and the naval resistance army has collected a lot of artillery, but there are not many heavy cannons. For example, the 152mm Soviet-made cannon equipped by the Naval Resistance Army, which has a range of 27 kilometers, does not have it at all.

Among the many artillery pieces on the beach, there were only four French M1917 Type 155-mm cannons with a range of nineteen kilometers, which could completely threaten Calais. The gun was actually not bad, but with the rapid defeat of France, it did not gain much fame in World War II. But his exotic "son" turned out to be a very famous --- American long-legged Tom 155mm cannon.

And this cannon is quite advanced in terms of range and rate of fire, and even the weight is not very heavy. With Li Guang's order, four heavy artillery pieces were deployed on the beach.

The Naval Resistance Army did not bring heavy artillery with it in this sortie, and the Naval Resistance Army originally came here to pick up garbage, and did not consider fighting. However, this time, the anti-aircraft artillery almost poured out, except for an anti-aircraft artillery company, and at least half of the gunners of the navy, but all the gunners were anti-aircraft gun shooters.

This is difficult for Li Guang, there are six artillery groups in the armored company, which were originally used as Soviet-made 122mm howitzers.

According to the normal configuration of troops, four heavy cannons can be organized into a company or even an artillery battalion. On the beaches of Dunkirk, the gunners of the Naval Resistance Army simplified the configuration.

Won't set the shooting elements? It's easy to do, just put the elevation angle of the gun to the maximum.

There is no ranging, and there is no observation post? Easy to solve, a submarine swims to the near sea, acting as an observation post.

Dark? It's simpler, one is that there is an explosion at the point of impact, and the other is that the Maritime Resistance Army has a specially trained night observation post. The walkie-talkie is responsible for communicating the calibration message.

The rookie gunners didn't even have a gun table, and adjusting the cannon to shoot Zhu Yuan was just guessing. And the observation post is really only estimating the impact point. If you define the shelling of this night - blind fire, this word is the most accurate.

In this way, a group of gunners, who had no experience in heavy artillery shooting, began to bombard the port of Calais. The firing of the four cannons was not met with a German counterattack, but the British and French soldiers on the beach were not satisfied. It was easy to be quiet on the battlefield at night, but the rumbling of cannons made the soldiers a little worried. Many people quietly left the artillery positions of the Naval Resistance Army, fearing that the counterattack of the German artillery would affect the pond fish.

The effect of this night's shelling is unknown to Li Guang, but thousands of shells were consumed. In the end, it was no longer four artillery groups that were shooting, but the entire armored company taking turns.

With more than 40 kilograms of shells and about 10 kilograms of propellant packs, loading shells is an extremely physically demanding activity in itself. Six hours of shelling, this kind of physical exertion, no one can support it at all. Even so, the gunners were not skilled enough to fire at a low rate, otherwise it would be difficult for a company to guarantee a six-hour bombardment of four cannons.

When the gunners could not hold on, armored and infantry companies also joined. These lads are really happy and addicted. Compared with the Chinese army in China, the regular training of the naval resistance army is generous enough, and the infantry can shoot an average of one live ammunition a day. In artillery, an artillery crew can also fire an average of one live ammunition a week. But where is there such a luxury for this night? Thousands of heavy artillery shells are 50 or 60 tons in terms of weight, and more than 100,000 dollars in terms of value.

There is nothing more enjoyable than fighting a war like this kind of unilateral fighting. The results of the overnight shelling are unclear, but one can be inferred from this that at least in the early morning of the 28th and 29th, the Germans did not have heavy cannons with a range of more than 15 kilometers in the Calais direction. Because the counterattack of the German artillery was ineffective, not a single shell fell on the beach positions.

The results of the battle are not clear, but the after-effects are obvious. There were fifty soldiers with red and swollen arms, all tired from loading shells.

Li Guang did not believe that the results of the battle were not at all, at least the transportation activities of the landing craft were not shelled by the Germans in the early hours of the morning. The hard work of the gunners was still a good pin down the Germans. Even so, Li Guang was very unhappy. 27 days ago, more than 6,000 tons of supplies were loaded on the free wheel. In the past 28 days, less than 500 tons of materials have been transported to the Liberty Ship by the Maritime Resistance Army, and the harvest is unsatisfactory.

What makes Li Guang even more dissatisfied is still to come.
