Peace does not come by praying, Yang Xiaolin knows this truth. However, he thought that in the present situation, he should be very happy that he did not mess with the Russians. He simply did not realize how much the Russians hated him! Let's put it this way, the previous Russian commander was tantamount to being ousted by Yang Xiaolin, and the face of the Russian army was also not much troubled by this bandit. The Russians are now going to exterminate him at all costs!

As soon as the two Russians returned, Yang Xiaolin sent the artillery down and asked the brothers to do a run-in on firepower first. The progress of the bandits lies in the fact that through continuous war, they have understood some tactical terms, such as firepower running-in, which if it was placed in Liu Yikun's time, the brothers below would not know what it meant at all.

War always makes people grow, and Yang Xiaolin's troops have slowly matured again.

He told Sui Bing to work extra hard, and when Sui Bing felt that the operation was almost the same, he would come and talk to him, and Yang Xiaolin was going to make a live-fire drill to see how effective his firepower coverage was, and people from other teams would also go to see it.

This is a special honor for Sui Bing, he won the first place in the last competition, and now Yang Xiaolin has given him this task again, Sui Bing knows that as long as he performs well and can hold down Biaozi steadily, he will not be embarrassed.

Just as Yang Xiaolin was running in the firepower, a Russian military vehicle stopped in Kaiyuan. The common people of Kaiyuan were already familiar with such a scene, and the Russians' railroad tracks could only send the army to Kaiyuan, and they had to walk a little further, because the railroad tracks in front of them had to pass through the lofty mountains, and there was a certain danger in transporting troops.

Russian troop carriers stopped here almost every day during this period, so the arrival of this force did not attract anyone's attention.

Lieutenant General Kendrachev came out of the carriage and took a deep breath, although the air at this station was not very good, it was much more comfortable than inside the carriage, and a smile appeared on his face.

This group of troops is the elite of 50,000 troops that the Russians have just drawn from Siberia. The first batch of troops arriving today is only the vanguard troops, and more than a dozen military columns will be followed one after another, and by tomorrow evening, the troops will be completely assembled.

Many of them turned out to be Russian bandits. Siberia is known for its harsh environment, so these soldiers can endure hardships and adapt to the climate of northeastern China, and it is a cold winter, but it has little effect on these Russians from afar.

Lieutenant General Kendrachev glanced at the Russian soldiers who were jumping off the train one by one, and his smile became even brighter. Major General Stessel also jumped off the train behind him and came to the lieutenant general's side, and when he saw the lieutenant general's smile, he knew that the lieutenant general was in a very good mood.

"General, we're going to rest here tonight, aren't we?"

Kendrachev nodded: "Yes, let the lads be vigilant, ready for battle, and do not slacken their spirits." ”

Stessel shrugged his shoulders: "General, it's still far from Lushun and the Japanese, I think we should let the young men relax, you know that they were very curious about the small feet of Qing Dynasty women when they came, can you let them study it?" Don't worry, I don't think they will break the discipline. ”

Stessel said this with a smile on his face, in fact, he really wanted to study Chinese women, not only small feet, this little thought can only be said when the lieutenant general is in a mood.

Kendrachev glanced at the confidant beside him, and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "My Major General, we are going to stay here for a long time, there are small-footed women here, you can study it slowly, but not now." Because we're about to have a battle. ”…,

Stessel was taken aback, he received the task of going to Lushun to garrison and prepare to fight the Japanese, didn't he hear that there was still a battle to be fought in Kaiyuan?

He immediately asked, "Is there an army ambushed by the Japanese here?" ”

Kendcheraf put his finger to his lips, motioned for him not to say anything, and then whispered, "It's just a simple hunt, and there is a beast that has offended the dignity of our Russian soldiers, and we must kill him, understand?" For the sake of honor. It's easy to take out the beast, but the first element of hunting is not to alarm the prey, so you know it's fine. ”

Stessel nodded, he understood, that beast must be called Yang Dagui.

For the honor of the Russian army, this was stated in the letter of Commander Kulopatkin to Lieutenant General Kendrachev.

Yang Xiaolin really didn't know that the Russians had pointed their guns at him, and when the Russians were ready to make a move, he was still grinding in his firepower, and it had been a little effective in a few days, and the news came from Bing that the brothers had already understood the operation of the artillery, and Yang Xiaolin decided to carry out a live-fire exercise that was a very luxurious luxury for him.

The unit conducting the exercise was Sui Bing's 1st Regiment, which was observed by the special brigade trained by Yang Xiaolin and Nyerere, as well as the commanders of the other four regiments.

Jin Dadao also wanted to come and see it, but there must always be someone to watch the house at home, so he and Liang Qichao stayed, and Liang Qichao was rushing a manuscript about his views on the Russo-Japanese War that was about to start. Of course, many of these opinions were suggested by him to the imperial court, and they had little to do with Yang Xiaolin.

Liang Qichao has not moved here for a long time, he can't bear to be lonely, when he came to Japan a while ago, he discussed with Naogami Matsubara, wrote a few articles for the Japanese in the newspaper office in Mukden, and Naogami Matsubara came forward to publish it for him.

Except for Liang Qichao and Jin Dadao, all the rest of the people came to see Yang Xiaolin's live-fire exercise. During the exercise, Jihua fired forty shells, twenty explosive packs, one hundred grenades, and thousands of machine-gun and rifle bullets.

Sui Bing had already set up the scarecrow needed for the exercise, starting from three kilometers away and tied, until he reached the front of the hill where they were stationed during the exercise, and it was estimated that more than 30,000 were tied in three days. The entire exercise lasted 15 minutes, which was a time for both sides to charge in actual combat. When the exercise began, Sui Bing would use the method Yang Xiaolin had said, using various firepower from far to near to see what the final lethality could be.

Yang Xiaolin and some of the people who watched were all in place, and Sui Bing was still making preparations for Zuihou, asking the soldiers to check the shells and repeat the operation method, after all, this was the first time they had used artillery so intensively, and Sui Bing knew that he couldn't smash it.

After finding that everything was fine, Sui Bing ran to Yang Xiaolin's side, with a little excitement on his face: "Finish everything, I'll show you right away?" ”

Yang Xiaolin got up from his chair, walked to the fortifications arranged by a group of brothers, and looked at the scarecrows that stretched for several kilometers in front of him. Sui Bing told Yang Xiaolin that these straw men with strips of cloth were the commanders of the other party, and now there was a sharpshooter in each squad, and the task of these sharpshooters was to shoot these enemy commanders with strips of cloth before throwing grenades, that is, when the enemy rushed to the front of the position in the illusion.

Yang Xiaolin was very satisfied with what he heard: "Good, very good!" During the exercise, it should also be remembered that the advance of the artillery shells should be carried out at the speed of the Russian charge, not fast or slow. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked back and found that the eyes of the other brothers were already a little anxious and expectant, and immediately said, "Let's start." ”…,

With Yang Xiaolin's order, with the wave of the command flag in Bing's hand, the seventy-six-millimeter artillery that had just arrived was the first to play, and it can be seen from the jerky action of the bandits when they operated the cannon, they were not very skilled in artillery warfare, and some bandits made some small mistakes in a row under the nervousness. In all, only twenty-seven shells were fired in the allotted time, and there was no commander of the artillery fire who agreed, and each gun was fighting on its own. Some of the artillery only fired once, and the better ones only fired two or three shells, which made Yang Xiaolin frown. Next is the conscienceless cannon that he developed himself. When the first explosive package was sent two hundred meters away, there was a loud bang, which was louder than the explosion of the shell just now. Yang Du's body standing beside Nyerere couldn't help but tremble, and when he looked up again, he saw that all the scarecrows around the explosive bag had fallen! Thirty meters in circumference, it is basically a scorched earth.

This is just a drill, and if it is in actual combat, not only these 30 meters, but also those who spread a little more to the side will not be spared. The reason why this thing is called a conscienceless cannon is because it is so inhumane. During the Huaihai Campaign, many of the Kuomintang soldiers who were hit by this cannon did not have any scars on their bodies, but they bled to death from seven holes, which were shocked to death by the powerful air wave caused by the explosion!

No way, it's scary that the caliber is too big.

However, the rate of fire of this gun is not fast, and its range is only about 200 meters, so it can shoot for not much time in actual combat. In addition, the bandits were not very skillful in operation, so ten cannons were put together, and twenty explosive packs were not completed within the specified time.

Zuihou was simple, more than a hundred grenades were thrown together, and then a regiment of those riflemen fired together, and the whole exercise ended.

When the gunfire stopped, Yang Xiaolin took a general look, and the scarecrow on the road was about half down, and the one within the range of the conscienceless cannon was basically not standing. The scarecrow in front of a bandit position was also beaten out of shape, and the bandits were already very skilled in operating rifles and grenades.

This is just a drill, and the other side will not stand there and blow you up in actual combat, and the effect will definitely not be so good.

In general, seventy points, I'm more satisfied, I'm more satisfied with the weapon.

Several brothers next to him also came over to surround Sui Bing's side, you and I said my feelings, now several teams are just starting out for the artillery battle, the distance has not yet been opened, they can do what Sui Bing can do, imagining the scene when the enemy is charged and half of them are killed by a single artillery fire, they are a little excited.

Liu Xianhe even said: "General, if this artillery fire is coupled with the rifle you made, then no one will be able to get close to us." ”

These words resonated with everyone, Yang Xiaolin glared at Liu Xianhe, and didn't say anything. Rifles he will not use, and will not even produce. This had nothing to do with his promise to the Russians, because he did not want the rifle to go out and into the hands of the Japanese.

In addition, the shooting speed of semi-automatic rifles is many times faster than that of current rifles, and Yang Xiaolin's current handicraft bullet processing factories cannot supply them at all. Now each bandit carries only ten bullets on his body, is there a difference between a manual rifle and a semi-automatic rifle?
