189 Cloud Burst Bomb Preparation
The 2,000-meter assault position and the 400-meter infantry charge position were connected by a communication trench, and the movement of people had to be carried out in the communication trench, because the distance of 2,000 meters was already dangerous, and the Spaniards in the fort were able to see the people moving on the ground from inside the fort and shoot at them with machine guns.
Lin Fei followed Zhang Chuang through the traffic trench, and soon came to the 400-meter infantry charging position, which was full of bullet marks, and it was obvious that the two sides had exchanged fire when digging the position. Zhang Chuang took Lin Fei to a high slope, pointed to the fortress in the distance and said, "Look, that is the enemy's fortress, you see the improvements, right?" β
Lin Fei looked intently, and saw that there were many more square-shaped and convex things outside the fortress, making the fortress look like a tumor, Zhang Chuang asked in a low voice on the side: "Your Majesty, what are these things?" β
Lin Fei didn't answer directly, but asked, "When did you get these things?" β
Zhang Chuang replied: "According to the migrant workers we recruited, the Spaniards started to get it a few days ago, almost after we killed the enemy's field artillery unit. β
Lin Fei let out a "hmm", and then asked, "What do you think these things are for?" β
Zhang Chuang shook his head and said, "I don't know. β
Lin Fei asked again, "How did the soldiers react when they saw these things?" β
Zhang Chuang replied: "The soldiers were very surprised and puzzled when they saw those things, and they didn't know what those things were for. β
Lin Fei smiled and asked, "Surprised and confused? You're not afraid, are you? β
Zhang Chuang replied firmly: "No, absolutely not, some soldiers still use this matter to make bets, if they are afraid, they will definitely not bet." β
Lin Fei smiled "hehe" and said casually: "Sue the soldiers, don't gamble." Then Zhengse said: "Actually, the purpose of this thing is very simple, it is to protect against our shells." β
Zhang Chuang was taken aback and asked, "Defend against our shells?" How do those little squares protect us from shells? β
Lin Fei smiled: "Do you remember the way the blasting bomb was destroyed?" I've taught you. β
Zhang Chuang nodded and said, "Of course I remember, you said that the blasting shell is killed by the explosives filled inside, and you also said that when the blasting bomb is used to attack the fortifications, try to use the delay fuse as much as possible to let the shells explode deep into the fortifications." β
Lin Fei's eyes lit up, and he said: "The small square outside the fortification is used to defend against the delayed fuse, as soon as the shell hits the small square, the fuse is activated, and the cannonball will not explode deep into the fortification, but explode outside, so that the fortification is protected, do you understand?" β
Zhang Chuang nodded as if he didn't understand, then shook his head again, Lin Fei smiled and said, "Write down this matter, and I will write it into the textbook in the future." β
Zhang Chuang said "understood", and then said with a worried face: "Your Majesty, won't this make the fortifications more difficult to fight?" β
The cloud burst bomb was top secret, so Zhang Chuang didn't know, and Lin Fei didn't plan to break it now, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I already have a good plan to solve it." β
Zhang Chuang didn't ask much, Lin Fei took Zhang Chuang back to the 2000-meter attack launch position, at 6 o'clock in the evening of the same day, Lin Fei personally came to the artillery position, Zhao Menggang hurriedly greeted him, Lin Fei asked with a smile: "How are you resting in the past two days?" β
Zhao Menggang said with a smile: "It's all rested, Your Majesty hurry up and give an order, we can't wait to fight the next battle." β
Lin Fei said with a smile: "Don't worry, the next battle will be tomorrow." β
Zhao Menggang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he asked, "Are you going to hit the enemy with a cloud burst bomb?" β
Lin Fei smiled and nodded, and Zhao Menggang said excitedly: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time. β
Lin Fei said solemnly: "Tomorrow, June 19th, is the day of the general attack, you are the first shot of the general attack, whether you can win the whole battle, it depends on you, tomorrow at 8 o'clock in the morning, I will come here in person, watch you open artillery attack, you must make all the preparations before the attack tonight, understand?" β
Zhao Menggang agreed, Lin Fei got up and went back, convened a meeting of the infantry commanders, arranged the combat matters, the artillery fortress and the infantry attack must be closely linked, so as to break through the enemy's defense line, Lin Fei also deployed the infantry attack plan, let the troops go back to prepare.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Lin Fei came to the artillery position, at this time the artillerymen had already pushed the artillery out of the bunker and put it into the camouflage shed, the tarpaulin of the muzzle of the gun was also lifted, and boxes of shells were placed in the bunker pit on the side.
Lin Fei was very worried about the accidental explosion of the cannonballs, so he asked his subordinates to put all the shells in the bunker pit to minimize the adverse effects of the explosion.
As soon as Zhao Meng came to Lin Fei, Lin Fei pointed to the three fortresses facing the artillery position and said, "Our attack will be launched from there, and we will kill those three fortresses." β
Zhao Menggang agreed, and then asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to use the cloud burst bomb directly?" β
Lin Fei shook his head with a smile and said, "The manufacturing process of cloud burst bombs is too complicated, so the number is very small, save a little use, let's try a few grenades first." β
Zhao Menggang said hello, personally walked up to a howitzer, and said to Lin Fei: "Since you are here in person, I will personally operate the cannon for your majesty." β
As soon as Zhao Meng finished speaking, he said to the ammunition hand on the side: "A blasting bullet, ready to be loaded." "An ammunition man picked up a shell painted with red horizontal stripes and released the warhead. In order to facilitate the artillery's identification of various shells, Lin Fei placed a large order for color paint to the pigment factory, and then applied these colored paints to the shells, and the red horizontal stripes represented the blasting shells.
When the ammunition hand released the insurance, Zhao Menggang aimed at the target with the sight on the cannon body, he shook the high and low machine and the direction machine while measuring the target position, and the meteorological company did not report the meteorological number jΓΉ, Zhao Menggang adjusted the position of the muzzle according to the meteorological number jΓΉ, and said loudly when it was not easy: "Your Majesty, the aim is complete, you can fire..."
Lin Fei said: "Okay, permission to launch." β
As soon as Zhao Meng pressed the firing button, there was a loud "boom", the cannonball left the chamber, Lin Fei looked up at the fortress in the distance, and saw a ball of fire rising in front of the fortress, Lin Fei smiled and said, "I didn't hit." β
Zhao Menggang felt that there was no light on his face, so he silently adjusted the muzzle of the cannon, and fired another bullet, this time he saw a ball of fire rising on the fortress, and then a thick cloud of black smoke shrouded the fortress, Lin Fei smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Yes, it hit." β
Zhao Menggang smiled innocently, walked up to Lin Fei, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I hope the grenade can't knock off the fortress." β
Lin Fei laughed out loud and said, "What are you talking about?" β
Zhao Menggang smiled: "Only in this way can our cloud burst bomb have a chance to show its talents." β
Lin Fei had nothing to say, picked up the telescope and looked at the fortress in the distance, at this time the wind gradually blew away the black smoke, and the fortress that was hit was exposed, only to see that the protruding square outside the fortress was blown off, but the fortress did not move at all, only the concrete at the explosion point was blown loose.
Lin Fei looked at the fortress and said to himself: "Fortunately, I have a cloud burst bomb, otherwise I will blow up with a grenade, and I don't know when it will be exploded." β
Lin Fei muttered a few words, turned back to Zhao Menggang and said, "Prepare to use the cloud burst bomb." β
Zhao Menggang's eyes showed a burst of excitement, and he agreed again and again and began to prepare. Lin Fei began to prepare to use the cloud burst bomb, and the Spaniards on the opposite side also took action.
Zhao Menggang's two shells completely alarmed the Spaniards, and the commander of the fortress immediately reported the news to Governor Sanders, who at this time remained in the headquarters of the position and did not return to the city.
After Governor Sanders received the report, a subtle sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said loudly to his subordinate staff: "Let's go, let's go to the mountain artillery unit on the infantry position." β
The staff officer hurriedly dissuaded: "Your Excellency the Governor, if you have any orders to make a phone call, why bother to go over in person?" Now the Chinese pigs are firing their cannons, in case the cannonball hits you......"
Governor Sanders smiled disdainfully and said, "What's in the case... The Chinese pigs are now aiming at the fortress, let's go to the mountain artillery unit, it's very safe. β
After Governor Sanders finished speaking, he took a few staff officers out of the command post, and came to the position of the mountain artillery unit through the communication trench, and the mountain artillery was hidden in the underground fortifications at this time, and the commander of the mountain artillery unit saw Governor Sanders and asked in shock: "Lord Governor, why are you here?" β
Governor Sanders smiled and said, "I'll lead you to beat the pigs, do you hear the enemy's cannons?" β
The commander of the mountain artillery unit replied: "We heard it. β
Governor Sanders nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Let your observers immediately find the location of the enemy artillery positions and open fire on them." β
The commander of the mountain artillery unit looked embarrassed and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, the field artillery unit told us a few days ago that the artillery of the Chinese pigs is difficult to find, and we are worried that we will not be able to find ......."
Governor Sanders smiled, "Don't worry, our fortress is very strong, and it will take a long time for the Chinese pigs to open it, so you have plenty of time to find it." β
The commander of the mountain artillery unit agreed, and Governor Sanders pointed to the telephone in the command post of the mountain artillery unit with his hand and said, "Can this phone talk to the fort?" β
The commander of the mountain artillery unit nodded, picked up the microphone and put it in the hands of Governor Sanders, who took the microphone and said loudly: "Commander of the fortress?" I am Governor Sanders, and the Chinese pigs have already launched an artillery bombardment on us, and I judge that their large forces will soon attack, and I order, all the personnel to enter combat mode..."
The Commander of the Fort replied in a loud voice, "Yes... We understand..."
