716 Anti-aircraft guns vs. airships

The Japanese army's general-class airship flew over the open fields and countryside, at this time in the north of the Qing Dynasty, it was already snowing, and there was a vast snow between heaven and earth, and the city was very obvious in this snowy expanse, which undoubtedly provided great convenience for the general-class airship to identify the target.

The city of Beijing soon appeared in front of him, and from the sky, the square city wall was very eye-catching, and Yuki Izawa was very happy, and ordered his subordinates to unfurl the flag and give an order -- to prepare for battle.

Seeing that the city of Beijing was about to be slaughtered by the famous Japanese general-level airships, at this moment, I saw a group of horse teams on the ground from far and near, the speed of the horse team was very fast, and behind each horse was pulling a cart covered with tarpaulin.

There are a total of thirty carts in the horse team, each of which is very fast, and it is very conspicuous on the white snow, so Yuki Haysawa in the sky also noticed the scene on the ground, and Yuki Hayazawa couldn't help but joke with his subordinates: "What do you say is the thing on the ground, is the person of China in a hurry to reincarnate, why is he in such a hurry?" ”

The subordinates laughed loudly, laughing at the stupidity of the Zhi Na people, and they didn't want to think about it, the stupid Zhi Na people in their mouths could clean them up very badly, wouldn't they be even more stupid?

Yuki Haizawa and his subordinates mocked a few words, then ignored the horse team and continued to fly towards Beijing City, looking forward to the scene of the people of Beijing City being frightened by their famous general-class airship and running away, the scene of the Forbidden City being burned down by a fire, and the scene of Lin Fei being so angry that he vomited blood and passed out...... Everyone laughed from the bottom of their hearts......

At this moment, I saw thirty carts on the ground, quickly divided into six rows, each row of five, and discharged a phalanx on the ground, and then the tarpaulin was lifted, and the things under the tarpaulin were exposed.

Underneath the tarpaulin, it turned out to be a strange-looking thing, which looked very similar to artillery, but it had two barrels, the barrel was thin and long, and there was a huge disc sight on the barrel, and two strings of shells were attached to the breech, and the shells were placed on the cartridge belt, and the cartridge belt was attached to the huge ammunition box.

It turned out that this weapon was the latest antiaircraft gun developed by the Huaxia Army, officially numbered LGS-1, with a caliber of 30 mm, a body barrel of 40 times the caliber, a rate of fire of 100 rounds per minute, and a blasting shell that was specially used to deal with enemy airships.

The development of this type of anti-aircraft gun lasted more than two years, Lin Fei first had the idea of developing anti-aircraft guns, originated from the Vietnam War with France two years ago, in that war, one of Lin Fei's troops saw the French airship for the first time, and the result was so frightened that he fled, Lin Fei did not have the weapon to deal with the airship, there was no way, he could only transfer the rockets over, and attack the French airship with expensive rockets, although the French airship was down, but a large number of rockets were wasted.

After that, the Japanese army was also equipped with airships, that is, general-level airships, and fierce battles broke out with Monkey King's airships, and countries around the world also developed and equipped airships, Lin Fei began the development of anti-aircraft guns in order to provide the army with weapons to deal with airships.

This type of anti-aircraft gun is also leading in the world, and the reason is very simple: when the countries of the world first faced the airship, they did not realize the huge military value of the airship, let alone that the airship could be used as a sharp weapon for strategic bombing, and naturally did not realize the development of antiaircraft guns to deal with the airship.

And Lin Fei is different, Lin Fei, as a person from the future, from the beginning of the order to develop the airship, he has thought clearly about how to use the airship, what weapons to develop to attack the airship, and what weapons to use to replace the airship in the future, which is far beyond the reach of all countries in the world.

However, it is not easy to develop anti-aircraft guns, the most difficult place is the automata, because the anti-aircraft gun needs to fire the shells to a very high place, so the gunpowder will be loaded with a lot of gunpowder, the impact of gunpowder gas on the parts of the automaton is very strong, and the material must have high mechanical strength.

The second is the barrel, because the shell of the anti-aircraft gun is very fast, the friction on the barrel is extremely strong, and a large amount of heat will be generated in a short time, so the heat resistance of the barrel must be excellent, otherwise the barrel will have to be replaced after a period of time.

Although Lin Fei does not know the specific element composition of these materials, Lin Fei knows which elements can improve the mechanical properties of these aspects, for example, Lin Fei knows that the use of nickel can improve the heat resistance, so he instructed his subordinates to use nickel for testing, and after countless failures, it was finally successfully developed.

In the process of development, the metallurgical experts who returned from studying in the United States played a huge role, and after they returned to China, they participated in the development of various materials on the one hand, and taught students on the other hand, so that the scientific and technological level of China has made great progress.

Although the materials were successfully developed, the cost of these materials was still relatively expensive, so the Huaxia Army could not be equipped with this type of anti-aircraft gun on a large scale, and the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun was currently equipped with only a hundred, which were deployed by Lin Fei in Beijing, Tianjin and other places, all of which were the original Qing places, as for places like Dayu City, Lin Fei did not deploy at all, because Lin Fei knew very well that the Japanese airship could not pass at all, so don't pay attention to it.

After Lin Fei bombed Tokyo, he realized that Emperor Meiji might retaliate by bombing Huaxia cities, so Lin Fei deployed a large number of observation posts in places that might be bombed, including ground personnel and hot air balloons in the sky.

Thirty LGS-1 anti-aircraft guns were organized into a "mobile defense team" and were on standby at any time, and when they received the news of the attack of the enemy airship, they immediately dispatched and rushed to the area where the airship passed to prepare for the attack.

Thirty LGS-1 anti-aircraft guns were prepared, the muzzles were aimed at the sky, and the huge disc-shaped sights on the barrels were improvised anti-aircraft gun commanders, which were full of scales that the gunner could use to measure the speed and range of targets in the sky, so as to shoot down air targets.

Each LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun is operated by five people, two of whom are ammunition operators, who are responsible for maintaining a stable ammunition supply. A person is a gunner, responsible for pulling the trigger and firing the gun, don't think that pulling the trigger is a small job, the trigger force of the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun is as high as fifteen pounds, not a strong man can't pull it at all.

One person is the aimer, who is responsible for manipulating the horizontal high and low steering gear and turning the muzzle pointing; There is also a person who is the commander, who is responsible for observing the target, directing the firing of artillery, and liaising with the superiors.

Soon the Japanese general-class airship flew into the range of the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun, and the commander gave the order, and all the gunners pulled the trigger at the same time.

The caliber of the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun is much larger than that of the heavy machine gun and the Grimm gun, so the sound of the shell is very loud, and the "all of it" is like beating a drum, and the smoke after the cannon is ejected is also very large, and the firing position of the entire LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun is basically covered in thick smoke.

The cannonball flew to the general-class airship with a whistling, the volume of the general-class airship was extremely large, and it was easy to be hit by the cannonball, and the No. 035 general-class airship (each of the original general-class airships was named after a Japanese historical general, and later the number of general-class airships increased, so it was no longer named like this, only the number) The pod was quickly hit, and the three crew members, including the captain of the airship, were all killed, and the rest hurriedly controlled the airship to return.

Yuki Hayazawa was so surprised that his face was bloodless, we were at an altitude of three thousand meters, how could the spear of the Chinese man hit us! Yuki Haysawa hurriedly ordered, raised the height, and dodged the ground shells.

The effective firing altitude of the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun is 6,000 meters, and the general-class airship will inevitably be baptized by shells in the process of ascending, and the shells fired by the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun this time are all bursting shells equipped with time fuses.

A small clock timer is placed inside the blasting shell to control the explosion of the shell when it flies to about 5,000 meters, if the shell hits the target during the flight, it will be regarded as an armor-piercing shell, if it can't hit the target, the shell will fly to 5,000 meters and explode, and the shrapnel exploded at a very fast speed and can cause serious damage to air targets.

In fact, to deal with air targets, the best artillery shell is a blasting bomb equipped with a proximity fuse, this kind of blasting bomb can explode after getting close to the target, and the lethality is far more than that of ordinary armor-piercing shells.

One by one, the cannonballs exploded in the sky, and when they exploded, they would form clouds of smoke, floating in the air, like clumps of marshmallows, and countless killing fragments shot out of the marshmallows and flew towards the general-class airship.

This famous general-class airship is miserable, No. 014 was directly detonated by a shell, and it turned into a fireball directly in the air, falling rapidly, I don't know where it fell.

The No. 008 general-class airship was hit by dozens of fragments, and the airbag was full of holes, throwing all the ballast and bombs down, and it could not slow down the momentum of the fall, so it landed and exploded, and thirty LGS-1 anti-aircraft guns were on the side of the general-class airship, so the general-class airship could not blow up the LGS-1 anti-aircraft gun when it dropped bombs.

The No. 010 Admiral-class airship was hit by more than a dozen shells, and all the crew members were killed, and the airship became a "ghost airship", fluttering and disappearing.

The shells of the LGS-1 anti-aircraft guns weaved a big net of death in the sky, enveloping all the general-class airships, one after another the general-class airships were shot one after another, and one by one the airship soldiers were killed by shrapnel.

Yuki Izawa remembered Emperor Meiji's entrustment and the shame of Japan being bombed indiscriminately, gritted his heart and roared angrily: "Rush over to me and bomb Beijing!" ”
