Chapter 33: Eight-Nine Grenadier Canister
As soon as the bombardment of the Yue army stopped, Ding Rongguang immediately sent a platoon of troops to support the river beach position, but the plane of the Yue army, which had been hovering in the sky, immediately swooped down, and then strafed the fire. Subsequently, the warships cruising on the river were bombarded all over the world, directly driving back the reinforcements.
After Weng Zhaoyuan heard the report, he could only sigh helplessly and said, "Alas! Now they can only rely on Jin Zhao and their own! Hopefully they'll be able to withstand it! ”
Jin Zhao shook his somewhat dizzy head and ran out of the anti-artillery hole, and saw that Li Long was directing the troops to restore their positions, so he ran over and asked, "How is the situation?" ”
Li Long frowned and shook his head, "Brother! We're in big trouble this time! In the bombing of the little devils this time, at least one-third of the anti-artillery holes were blown up, and more than 100 brothers were buried in them, and now we have only 200 people left. ”
Hearing Li Long's words, Jin Zhao was distressed and dripping blood. But thinking about it, it is quite good to be able to save 200 people under such a fierce bombardment, after all, the time of one night is too short, if it were not for the sappers summoned by Jin Zhao to help build fortifications, I am afraid that this bombardment alone can make Jin Zhao's battalion wipe out on the river beach position. Now that the little devil is about to dock, Jin Zhao knows that now is not the time to feel distressed, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I will take the machine gun company and the spy platoon to block the little devil first, and you organize the other brothers to pull out the buried brothers, hurry up and rescue as much as you can!" ”
Li Long nodded, "Now it's all about that!" After saying that, he turned around and ran to save people.
"Kill, give!" As soon as the captain came ashore, he brandished his command knife and launched an attack on the river beach position, and the captain knew in his heart that this was his last chance, so he must break through the river beach position this time anyway.
"Hit! Give Lao Tzu a hard beating of his son of a bitch! Jin Zhao shouted, and suddenly the only twelve light and heavy machine guns left in the first battalion opened fire almost simultaneously, and the twelve machine guns formed a barrage, which immediately swept more than twenty little devils to the ground.
But the reaction speed of the little devil this time was obviously a lot faster than last time, and as soon as the machine gun rang out, except for a few unlucky eggs who were beaten into a sieve, most of the little devils quickly lay down, and then Ping Pong began to shoot back. At the same time, the light and heavy machine guns of the little devils also set up positions and began to suppress the machine gun fire of the first battalion. At this moment, seven or eight regiments of white smoke suddenly rose from about four or five hundred meters away from the position of the first battalion.
Seeing these white smokes, Jin Zhao's face changed, these white smoke Jin Zhao is too familiar, this is what came out when the grenadier was launched, and he has been fighting with the little devil for several days, it is impossible for Jin Zhao not to see it. And these grenadiers are about four or five hundred meters away from the position of the first battalion, obviously this time the little devil did not use the Taisho 10-year grenadier, because the range of the Taisho 10-year grenadier is only less than 200 meters, and the range of 200 meters just smashed all the grenades on the little devil's head, and the little devil is obviously not brain-dead to this extent. Then the only possibility is that the grenadier used by the little devil this time is a **-type grenadier canister.
The Type 89 grenadier is an improved version of the Taisho decade, with a caliber of 50 mm, a total gun length of 413 mm, a barrel body length of 260 mm, a total gun weight of 2.7 kg, a barrel weight of 1.6 kg, a barrel foot length of 170 mm, a barrel plate weighing 1.1 kg, a foot plate height of 60 mm, a foot plate width of 67 mm, a maximum firing range of 700 meters, and an effective firing range of 500 meters. It was precisely because the army saw the shortcomings of the short firing range of the Taisho 10-year type that it developed the ** grenadier canister. Compared with the Taisho 10-type grenadier, the weight of the ** type has only increased by 0.1 kg, but its range has increased from 200 meters to 500 meters. However, due to the fact that the first-class grenadier was developed not long after all, the grenadier canisters equipped by various units are mainly based on the old-fashioned Taisho ten-year type, and in fact, until the end of World War II, the Taisho ten-year type in the military units has not been completely replaced. Therefore, in the first attack, the little devil used the Taisho ten-year grenadier canister, but after suffering a loss, the army naturally would not make the same mistake again, so this time the captain of the army borrowed a full ten ** grenadiers from his captain to deal with the Chinese army on the river beach position. Knowing the presence of snipers in the Chinese army, these little devil grenadiers hid in some hidden places and bombarded the positions of the first battalion. And the distance between the two sides is four or five hundred meters, so even the sniper's hit rate has dropped a lot, not to mention that this time the little devil has already been prepared. However, the accuracy of the grenadier is not very good after all, and the distance has almost reached the effective range of the ** type, so although these little devils are selected elites, it is still difficult to ensure the accuracy of the grenadier.
"Boom!" A series of violent explosions sounded, although the first round of bombardment by the little devils did not bring much damage to the first battalion, but the firing speed of the grenadiers was extremely fast, which could reach 20 rounds per minute, so if these grenadiers were not solved as soon as possible, it would definitely bring a lot of trouble to the first battalion. Thinking of this, Jin Zhao shouted loudly at the back, "Bao Gang, your little steel cannon and grenadier concentrate firepower, and kill the little devil's grenadier first!" ”
"Yes!" Bao Gang replied loudly, and then commanded two small steel cannons and eight grenadiers under his command to start firing back. Fortunately, Jin Zhao exchanged for **-type grenadiers at the beginning, so he didn't suffer a loss against the little devil.
Jin Zhao turned to Wang An next to him and said, "Your sniper squad will deal with the little devil's machine gun first and suppress the little devil's firepower." ”
"Yes!" Wang An replied loudly.
A violent explosion sounded, and one of the little devils' grenadiers was directly blown into parts, and even the four or five little devils around were directly blown to the ground.
Seeing this scene, a sneer appeared at the corner of the captain's mouth, "Hmph! The people of China can't help but use mortars! It seems that the people of China have exhausted their donkey skills! Ordered our mortar squad to hit the fire and destroy the mortars of the Chinas first. ”
"Hayi!" A second lieutenant next to him replied respectfully.
"Tom tom!" There was a muffled sound, and then four violent explosions sounded in quick succession on the positions of the first battalion. A small steel cannon of the first battalion had just completed a three-shot rapid fire and killed one of the little devil's grenadiers, but the little devil's shell fell, and with a loud bang, the small steel cannon was directly blown into the sky, along with the gunner and two deputy gunners all fell in a pool of blood.
"! The little devil also has a small steel cannon, and there are four of them at once! Bao Ganggang grabbed his military hat and threw it on the ground, scolding loudly.
