Chapter 225: Shore Artillery (Ask for a monthly pass!) )
"Junzuo, the navy is here, and now it has passed through Dalian." As soon as the morning dawned, the air force had just taken off and flew to the predetermined patrol area, and the traces of the navy were discovered from afar, so they hurriedly told the military headquarters about the traces of the fleet, and the air force turned around and ran away.
This time, the navy dispatched the strength of an aircraft carrier formation, and it was difficult for two fighters alone to resist at all, so they reported the situation here to the military department and asked for reinforcements.
After listening to the news that the navy had entered the Bohai Sea, Su Dao didn't have much to worry about, he always had to come, even if he avoided this time, what should he do next time? You can't just think about hiding from it every time, right? Now that Su Dao has come, then history has changed from the moment he arrived, and no one can stop it, unless Su Dao does nothing and is a slave to the country with peace of mind.
"Tell the Navy to speed up the supply and get ready for battle; ordered the Air Force, Fighter Squadron and Stuka Squadron to immediately take off to attack the warships, and the bombers continued their mission; Let the shore defense base be ready, it's time to try the power after practicing for so long. Su Dao issued three orders in succession, as if he hadn't thought about it without any thought.
The communication soldier took the order and left, and Su Dao once again fell into contemplation, this will be a naval battle with decisive significance, whether it is successful or not, it depends on the outcome of the battle today. However, Su Dao still felt that he was more sure.
The level of the Bohai Sea is shallow, and the aircraft carrier of the Yue army may not be able to enter, and even if it does, it can only be moored in one position, and the possibility of maneuvering in the Bohai Sea is very small, so since then, the aircraft carrier of the Yue army must leave a few warships around him to protect him, which greatly weakens the strength of the attacking warship.
With the double bombardment of the coastal defense artillery and the Stuka army, the superiority of the Syrian army was weakened by at least half in an instant; of course, the separation of the aircraft carriers and warships of the Japanese army has become an inevitable trend, and no matter who commands the operation, it is impossible for the aircraft carriers to follow and charge in front.
If it is on the side of the attacking warship, then Stuka can swagger to attack the aircraft carrier, if it is on which side of the aircraft carrier, Stuka will attack their attacking warship first, anyway, judging from the newspaper, there are not many warships with air defense capability in the army, so Su Dao can still calmly arrange counterattack countermeasures.
Since ancient times, shore artillery and naval artillery have been bombarded against each other, basically the shore artillery has the advantage, for no other reason, warships are adrift at sea, which greatly interferes with their accuracy, and shore artillery does not care so much, warships will float, but the land is fixed, and the first cannon is crooked, as long as the angle is quickly adjusted, the second gun can easily hit.
In addition, there is a terrifying artillery such as the M1919 on each of the two coastal defense positions, and it is difficult for the army to bargain for this kind of battle under the premise of not having an air force.
Xingcheng,
As one of the only two coastal defense bases of the 99th Army, although it is handed over to Suizhong, it is under the jurisdiction of Xingcheng, and in order to facilitate the smooth replenishment of logistics supplies and other materials, the military department decided to build a security base a few months ago, and at the same time ordered the construction of a railway from Jinxi to Suizhong, of course, this railway is directly to the shore defense base, belongs to the special line, in order to speed up the transportation or something, all the lines are newly built, and the specifications are much higher than the existing railway.
And according to Su Dao's expectations, after the end of the war, this railway can continue to be used, and the existing railway will definitely be scrapped, so it is imperative to build a new railway that meets the specifications in Su Dao's heart. It's just that the railway has not yet been completed, so supplies and other things are still transported by horse-drawn carts and trucks for the time being.
Li Ergou sat on a small mound and gasped for breath, he had just worked with several comrades-in-arms to send a cannonball into the barrel, and several comrades-in-arms who cooperated with him were no better than him, and even lay directly on the ground.
They are responsible for a 406 mm shore defense gun, the only one in the entire base, although the big guy looks like a show off, but it is not so easy to serve, the projectile weight of a single shell is 2100 pounds or 2240 pounds, even if the tough guy who eats is strong, don't want to move it easily.
Although there is the help of a small cart, such a heavy thing still needs manpower to transport in the end, and the logistics personnel who looked at the few guns next to them were much happier, especially the logistics personnel of the 203 mm shore gun, who were a little stronger, could pick up the shells by themselves, and the two smaller ones could also be hugged together, looking at their happy appearance, and then looking at the nearly heavy shells in front of him, Li Ergou suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
At the same time, I was silently muttering in my heart, if you can't sink a little devil warship, I'm really sorry that Lao Tzu spent so much effort to get you up.
"Li Ergou, what are you doing? Hurry to the back and move the shells to the storage point, the military headquarters has given the order, and it is time to start fighting immediately. "Just gasping for breath, the gun commander came from the direction of the rear headquarters and roared loudly.
Just now, the command headquarters called the commander of each gun to a meeting, and there were many meetings during this period, so everyone was used to it, and they didn't realize that the war was coming, and they kept moving the shells from the storage point in the back and stuffing them into the barrels, and then aiming and exiting them.
This makes them a little envious of the gunners of those small-caliber artillery, people can still shoot a few shells every day to practice their hands, as far as their cannon is not good, not to mention anything else, in the words of the commander of Xingcheng security, the cost of a 406 mm shore artillery shell is enough for half of the soldiers of the coastal defense base, such a big consumption, who would dare to let them play without fighting?
But fortunately, the gunner of this cannon will occasionally be transferred to other guns to practice his hands, so as not to feel raw when he really fights, although the two cannons have very different surnames, but the principle is the same, as long as you master the principle, you can quickly enter the combat state.
"Lao Li, are you really going to fight?" Li Ergou looked at the gun commander in disbelief, both of them were surnamed Li, so Li Ergou directly called him Lao Li.
"Of course, I said you kid don't talk nonsense, hurry up and move the shells, the air force has already gone to scout for us, and the coordinates will come over soon, if you kid dare to make the shells unsupplied, see how I clean you up." Commander Li pulled up Li Ergou, who was sitting on the ground, and hurriedly pushed him to the back.
The firing range of their cannon is about 40,000 meters, and they naturally can't see the landing point of the shell, so all this needs to be observed and corrected by the Air Force, and they don't know the speed of the Air Force, even if they start to take off now, at most they can reach the target in one or two minutes, so their time is still relatively tight.
And Li Ergou, this kid, Commander Li doesn't know how to talk about him, just like their cannon, don't underestimate this cannon, the number of people in the entire artillery has reached as many as 100 people, in addition to the chief and deputy artillery commanders, shooters and miscellaneous more than 20 people, the rest of the logistics personnel of more than 70 people, is simply to transport shells or something, because the weight of the shells is too large, do they have any machinery to help, so they also need so much manpower to solve.
The rank of the artillery commander is captain, the deputy artillery commander is a lieutenant, and the rank of the chief logistics officer is also a lieutenant, but Li Ergou, a guy, has made a lot of meritorious contributions, but every time he makes meritorious service, he will make mistakes before he has time to be promoted, of course, it is just some mistakes in life style, and after meritorious service, he will always go to the city to find happiness, and he is caught by the military police every time.
You say that if you want to be cool, you can be cool, anyway, there is a green building, and it will be okay to pay according to the price after you are cool, but this kid just doesn't remember his surname for a long time, and every time he goes, he still wears a military uniform, and the gendarmes on the streets of Xingcheng are turning around, who will he arrest if he doesn't arrest him? It is precisely because of this that Li Ergou's Tigan report was reported four times, but it was sent back four times.
In order to allow Li Ergou to reform and continue to maintain the momentum of training, although the above did not agree to give him a promotion, but every time he also raised his military rank, Li Ergou, who should have been promoted to lieutenant a long time ago, is now only a sergeant, but the above also seems to know that Li Ergou is a rare talent.
Therefore, the position of logistics chief of the 406 gun is still held by him, and no other officers are assigned, so Li Ergou can be regarded as a wonderful flower of the 99th Army, because there are very few people in the 99th Army who can be sergeants, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in the whole army, and there are no more than 100 people together, and Li Ergou occupies one of them.
Of course, as long as Li Ergou doesn't make the mistake of the principle of surname, it will be a matter of time before he is promoted, and even Cannon Commander Li secretly scolded Li Ergou for not remembering his surname for a long time, if he wants to find a girl, he will do it well, and after he does it, just find a wife, why always go to the Qinglou.
Hearing that this time he was going to really fight, Li Ergou suddenly became interested, and after waiting for so long, he could finally do it with a real knife, so Li Ergou beckoned dozens of people under his command to run to the underground warehouse behind him, and quickly transported the shells one by one to the ammunition storage point of the 406 gun.
"Yes, understood!" Artillery Commander Li stood in the command fortification below, holding the internal phone in his hand and replied vigorously.
It is impossible for the artillery to have a radio station behind it, but in order for the artillery to receive new orders as soon as possible, an internal telephone has been set up in the coastal defense base, and there is one in the command fortification of each gun.
After hanging up the phone, Artillery Commander Li quickly marked the coordinates transmitted by the Air Force on the map, and then quickly calculated the shooting elevation angle on their side.
"Forty-three degrees up, seventeen degrees to the right, uncorrected launch." After calculating the shooting of Zhu Yuan, Cannon Commander Li quickly shouted loudly.
The gunners, who had already been ready, quickly adjusted their bearings, and after the adjustment, everyone left the area around the guns for a certain distance. No one dared to stay next to a gun of this caliber when it was fired, unless they were impatient, so under normal circumstances, after adjusting the angle, everyone retreated to a certain distance, and then the gunner opened fire through a special device.
'Boom! ’
The earth seemed to be unable to withstand its fierce blow, as if it could not bear the pain, trembling with anger, the gunners could even feel that the earth seemed to be torn apart, although this was only one end of the cannon, not the landing point of the cannonball, but it still made everyone in the entire position deeply shocked by this huge cannon sound, looking at the direction of the 406 cannon with a surprised face, and couldn't believe it for a long time.
