With Li Yunlong's order, it was issued.

The artillerymen of the heavy howitzer company immediately got busy, first removing all the branches from the guns.

As the branches were removed, a steel beast suddenly appeared in everyone's field of vision.

The entire gun body plus the chassis is even more full of technology and ruthless than the 150mm howitzers currently equipped by the new regiment.

The weight of the barrel alone reached 5.2 tons, and the total weight of the 150-mm howitzers equipped with the new regiment was only 5.5 tons.

This means that the weight of the barrel of the B4 heavy howitzer is already close to the weight of the entire 150 mm howitzer.

In order not to leak the new weapons of mass destruction, Li Yunlong had already sent a guard battalion to arrive ahead of schedule and set up a guard to ensure absolute safety within a range of 3 kilometers.

In addition, more than 20 37-mm anti-aircraft guns of the air defense battalion were arranged around the B4 heavy howitzers, and the entire process was to defend the B4 heavy howitzers against the sudden intrusion of the devil's reconnaissance planes.

Under the operation of the artillerymen, the chassis was slowly lowered downward, and the rear hoe was inserted into the ground to form a stable firing platform.

Quickly move from a transport state to a combat state.

After the gun mount was stabilized, the artilleryman began to turn the handle, and the elevation angle of the gun barrel slowly went up, so that the gun barrel pointed straight in the direction of the devil's turret.

As the shooting was confirmed, several artillerymen with big shoulders and round waists jointly carried a concrete penetrating bullet and put it on the small crane on the left.

One artilleryman operates a small crane to slowly lift the concrete-penetrating projectile to the bore, while the other uses a long rammer to forcibly push the projectile into the barrel, then places the round ammunition pack into the barrel and closes the bolt.

"Report to the regimental commander, B4 heavy howitzer, reloaded!"

The artillery company commander held a low-power walkie-talkie and reported loudly to Li Yunlong, who was watching from a distance.

"Fire!"

Li Yunlong's command was very short but full of energy, this voice was not unusual, but as soon as the soldiers of the new regiment heard this voice, they all immediately boiled into howling wolves.

"Fire!"

Removing the walkie-talkie from his ear, the artillery company commander shouted.

"Boom!"

With the artillery on the flanks, the firing rope was pulled back.

A huge cannon fire sounded, and a huge orange-red firework burst out from the muzzle of the gun in an instant, and the wind swept around the gun mount suddenly, and a large cloud of dust and mist suddenly rose around the gun body.

The barrel retreated abruptly, but the chassis did not move.

Because the artillery has fixed the chassis on the ground before firing the gun, and the B4 heavy howitzer uses a dual stationing and retreat system, it is as stable as an old dog when firing.

Of course, it is okay for the chassis to be fixed without a hoe, but the entire artillery crawler chassis has to retreat several meters before stopping.

Soviet designers made a fuss about the artillery bed which, when firing shells, could slide along the slide rails on the gun carriage, further cushioning the recoil.

In addition, when firing shells, the chassis of the cannon will be lowered downward, and when lowered, the hoe at the rear of the vehicle will also be inserted into the ground, making the firing platform more stable.

As the cannon rang out in the next second, a loud sound like a landslide and a ground crack came again.

"Boom-"

The earth is trembling, shaking the mountains and mountains.

Everyone's telescope vision has been focused on the devil's turret.

In the field of vision of the telescope, a huge fireball and gunpowder smoke suddenly rose up at the devil's turret, and the rubble and shrapnel first sputtered with the air wave at a very fast speed, and then fell one after another.

As the smoke cleared, a six- or seven-meter-high reinforced concrete turret was suddenly blown to pieces.

Everyone who saw this scene had a look of horror on their faces.

"This power ......"

Zhao Gang couldn't help but gasp, although he had expected it in his heart, he still felt a little numb when he saw this scene.

How strong the reinforced concrete fortifications are, Zhao Gang is naturally very clear.

The new regiment is equipped with 150-mm howitzers, and it is expected that 20 to 30 guns will be hit before the turret has a chance to collapse.

However, this 203-mm heavy howitzer was eliminated with only one shot, and it seemed to be at ease.

The originally unusually strong reinforced concrete turret was destroyed by this heavy howitzer.

"This ......"

Everyone's eyes widened.

"Killed with one shot?"

Kong Jie's expression was extremely surprised.

"Lao Li, you kid has made a lot of money this time, I think this cannon is no worse than the little devil's 240mm cannon."

Ding Wei glanced at Li Yunlong, his eyes full of joy.

I am happy for the strength of my old comrades-in-arms and the growth of the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong said angrily: "You kid has seen the little devil's 240mm cannon fired?" ”

Xing Zhiguo says:

"The equipment and logistics support of the national army are much better than our Eighth Route Army, right?"

"But even Lao Jiang does not have a cannon of this caliber, and the largest caliber artillery currently equipped by the national army is still the kind of 150mm howitzer equipped by the new regiment."

"If you let Lao Jiang know." Kong Jie said, "Old Jiang has to be extremely red-eyed! ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

At present, the equipment and logistical support of the three regiments in the northwest of Shanxi, especially the new regiment, are much stronger than the most elite units of the national army.

Even the equipment of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army was better than that of the National Army.

Of course, the equipment of the fraternal units of other military regions has not yet come up, so there is still a lot of room for development in the overall strength of the Eighth Route Army.

Like the new second regiment and the independent regiment at their peak, their respective militia and main force are about 10,000 people, and their respective combat effectiveness is comparable to that of a second-line division of the Japanese army.

And there was no pressure on a second-line division of the Japanese army to fight one or two armies of the national army.

This 203-mm howitzer, Lao Jiang can't buy it even with money.

"This is a specialized reinforced concrete armor-piercing projectile, and the power is certainly not small." Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong said with a satisfied expression.

No wonder it can penetrate the devil's thickened turret.

Everyone's hearts were stunned, but their eyes were even hotter.

In particular, Wang Faming, commander of the 6th battalion of the division, and Zhao Youliang, commander of the 7th battalion, held their heads high and looked proud.

Because of this artillery, they only earned it by ambushing and blowing up the devil's heavy artillery wing in Miaoergou.

Wang Faming, Zhao Youliang, and the 6th and 7th Divisional Battalions all received commendations from the headquarters, which was a collective honor belonging to the 6th and 7th Divisional Battalions.

"Good cannon!"

Chief of Staff Wang Dehou exhaled.

This kind of cannon, once pulled to the battlefield, is definitely a devil's nightmare.

Directly smash the reinforced concrete fortifications of the devils, this power is not a joke with the devils, even if a cannon can't collapse the bunker or dark fort, it can also shock the devils and puppet soldiers inside to death.

"Commander, do you want to shoot again?"

The commander of the heavy howitzer company called Li Yunlong over the walkie-talkie to ask questions.

"Stop fighting, pull it back."

Li Yunlong took the walkie-talkie and gave the order.

"Yes!"

After the company responded loudly, he then hung up the call.

The main reason for pulling out this cannon today is to see its power, and I have to say that Li Yunlong is very satisfied with this power.

The city wall used to hit Taiyuan should be able to open a gap with one shot.

Li Yunlong is going to use these cannons as secret weapons and will use them next time he fights Taiyuan.

The only thing I was not satisfied with was that there were too few cannons, only 4 guns.

In addition, see if there is a business and if you can make a few more of these cannons.

If the new regiment were equipped with dozens or hundreds of such heavy howitzers, Li Yunlong would feel that he would be able to walk sideways on the Chinese battlefield.

"Boss Chen said that dignity is only above the blade of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon."

"We have this heavy howitzer, so that the little devils know what the truth is!"

Li Yunlong looked at the busy artillery of the heavy howitzer company, and his whole body was refreshed, and his mood was also high in fighting spirit and full of enthusiasm.

Ding Wei's expression was serious: "These words sound uplifting, only if the fist is hard enough at any time can we defend our country and nation, and we communists have the right to speak." ”

"Iron also needs to be hard." Kong Jie also nodded and said, "Boss Chen has provided us with such good equipment, we can't live up to Boss Chen's wishes." ”

In Kong Jie's opinion.

Boss Chen could have chosen the national army as the object of assistance.

Because many people only recognize the national army as a regular army.

The Eighth Route Army had only a dozen regiments with a regular establishment, such as the numbers of the new 1st regiment, the new 2nd regiment and the independent regiment, all of which could not be found in the establishment table of the national army.

However, Boss Chen is ostensibly doing business with Li Yunlong, but in fact, he is using Li Yunlong as an intermediary to assist the entire Eighth Route Army.

It was also with the assistance of Boss Chen that the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi Province had a great development.

Li Yunlong said: "Of course, when did our new group disappoint Boss Chen?" ”

"Let's not talk about that." Ding Wei's gaze withdrew from the B4 heavy howitzer, looked at Li Yunlong, and asked, "Lao Li, tell me and Lao Kong, when are you going to fight Taiyuan?" ”

This time, the Japanese army's sweep of the northwest of Jin, although the new regiment did not suffer a big loss, and even made a wave of money because of business.

But a comrade-in-arms from the class, Ding Wei and Kong Jie know Li Yunlong too well, and this guy never trades at a loss.

This time he was attacked by the devils once, although he defeated the 10th Division, with the strength of the new regiment now, Li Yunlong will definitely not be able to swallow this breath, and he will definitely find the field sooner or later.

"Hit Taiyuan, that's not good." Li Yunlong shook his head and said.

Having said that, Li Yunlong was already thinking in his heart how to be a little devil.

After all, Taiyuan is the nest of the First Army of the Japanese Army, and it takes the right time and place to fight Taiyuan.

"Yes!" Ding Wei glanced at Kong Jie and said, "Since Lao Li is reluctant to say, then I won't ask more." ”

After a pause, Ding Wei said again: "I have a business with Lao Kong, and I want to cooperate with you in a new group." ”

"Oh? What business do you have with Lao Kong? ”

When it comes to business, Li Yunlong suddenly came to his senses.

Although he can't beat Taiyuan for the time being, Li Yunlong is not a master who can be idle.
