Chapter 1631 The wind rises in the south
Chapter 1631: The wind blows in the sky
In Laizhou, in the conference room of the Electromagnetic Research Institute, An Yi was listening attentively to explain the experimental footage taken by Ding Molan against the camera.
In the afternoon experiment, Tesla used his super coil to drive a 10 kilogram load on a 50-meter orbit for full-output test. Because the load on the orbit broke through the sound barrier, the orbit was damaged and the experiment was forced to interrupt.
Sound barrier refers to the sound waves emitted by flying objects when the speed of sound is close to the speed of sound. The result of the sound waves being superimposed and accumulated will cause the generation of shock waves, which will hinder the acceleration of flying objects.
After breaking through the sound barrier and entering the supersonic speed, a conical sound cone will be generated at the front end of the flyer. To the bystanders, this shock wave is like an explosion, so it is called a sonic boom or a sonic boom. A strong sonic boom will not only cause damage to nearby buildings, but will also cause damage to the part of the flying object extending beyond the impact surface.
Tesla's experiment verified the existence of sound barriers for the first time and became the first person to confirm sound barriers. From this point of view, this experiment was successful. What is particularly rare is that it also used a camera to capture the picture of an object breaking through the sound barrier, providing valuable information for subsequent research.
After completing the experiment, Tesla couldn't wait to summarize and try to improve the load and orbit. Therefore, Ding Molan, who served as the assistant to this experiment, explained the importance of this experiment to An Yi instead of Tesla.
Although An Yi also thought this experiment was great, he still couldn't help but ask quietly: "Molan, is there any hope for Uncle Nicholas's experiment to be useful in military technology?"
Ding Molan nodded affirmatively: "Of course there is, once this electromagnetic projection track is successfully developed, the first thing that benefits will be the research on supersonic aircraft. Through this projection track, the aircraft model can be driven to twice the speed of sound, hypersonic or even extreme supersonic speed. This will be a useful supplement to the supersonic wind tunnel we are building.
"In addition, this projection rail can also be used on the aircraft carrier being designed. Think about relying on electromagnetic catapults to send the fighter into the air, so that the fighter accelerates evenly and has controllable strength. This reduces the chance of many accidents for pilots. It is a great blessing for aircraft carrier designers and naval operators. It can reduce the area occupied by the hangar deck to one-third of the original weight, and it has greatly reduced the weight. There are many other uses that I haven't thought about yet..."
"That's enough!"
An Yi was very satisfied. Seeing that it was getting late, he stepped forward and hugged Ding Molan's waist and said gently: "Molan, there is nothing else to do today, right? Have a meal together, and after the meal..."
As soon as I said this, the door of the room rang out inappropriately.
An Yi quickly let go of Ding Molan, turned his head and shouted, "The door is not locked, come in!"
Shen Fengdao hurried in and strode to An Yi: "There is movement in Siam. According to the information detected by the intelligence department, the two nights will be very dangerous tonight!"
An Yi smiled apologetically at Ding Molan, and then said to Shen Feng: "Old Shen, go outside first to prepare the vehicle. Molan and I have something to say!"
Shen Fengdao nodded to Ding Molan and turned around and left.
An Yi held Ding Molan's hand with regret on his face: "Sorry, Molan, I originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to accompany you, but the Siamese people don't give me this opportunity, I..."
Ding Molan raised her head, stretched out her hand to cover An Yi's mouth, and looked at An Yi affectionately: "I'm fine, everything is the overall situation first. Now Nanhua is at a critical moment. If you are not careful, it may lead to the deterioration of the situation. With you in person, it will be a great encouragement to the soldiers of the three armies."
An Yi gently kissed Ding Molan on the forehead and strode away.
......
At nine o'clock in the evening, Yalan, Jiachun, Piwen, Mudahan, Tabo and other places on the Siam side of the border line, fired cannons, and countless bombs poured into the South China territory on the other side of the border line.
After an hour of fire suppression, the Siamese army's invasion officially began.
With the help of instructors sent by Japan, the Siamese people armed a total of 30 divisions. This time, the attack on Nanhua, the First to Fifth Divisions attacked Bobbe and other places in the Tonlisa Plain of Nanhua, Tiannan Province. The first phase was to occupy Shishufeng Town, Mianji County; the Sixth to Tenth Divisions attacked Osma, Gonggli and other places. The first phase was to capture Sanlong Town, Sanlong County; the 11th to 12th Division attacked Menggao, the goal was to occupy Basse City on the right bank of the Mekong River and defend it; the 13th Division attacked Shawannaji, and the 14th Division attacked Wanxiang. These two armies were feinted to restrain the northern forces of Anjia Army to transfer the south.
The Siam Army used five divisions as the territory guards, and the eleventh division was used as a strategic reserve, concentrating superior forces to attack and defend the empty southern South China Plain. It hoped to take advantage of the chaos to solve the Tonlesa Plain in the lower reaches of the Mekong River first, push the front line to the edge of the Mekong River, and threaten Saigon's security.
"Born"
The continuous shooting caused the machine gunner's shoulder to bear a lot of recoil. Amid the sound of tearing the cloth, the body of the general-purpose machine gunner and the body of the machine gunner were trembling rhythmically. The obtuse angles of the feet brackets at the front of the machine gun were rubbing back and forth, leaving two obvious scratches on the rock base of the trench. The bullet shells that popped out of the gun chamber fell into the trench in strings like broken beads.
As a bullet belt was completely eaten by the machine gun, the machine gunner could already feel the heat of the barrel. He quickly dragged the machine gun off the position, and the pair of machine gunners wearing thick gloves immediately replaced the barrel that was almost deformed. For a well-trained machine gunner, this process only took fifteen seconds, plus the time to load a new ammunition belt, which could rejuvenate the general-purpose machine gun in half a minute.
When this universal machine gun returned to the battlefield, the Siamese infantry were still rushing towards the position defended by the Anjia army one after another.
This is the town of Pobi at the junction of Nanhua and Siam. It is a small village with only more than 1,000 people. The residents of the town were evacuated at the beginning of the shelling. The blocking position with three trenches to the west of the town is a powerful guarantee for the Anjia army to resist the invasion of the Siam army.
The border between Nanhua and Siam is densely packed with tropical forests, and there are not many roads that can facilitate the passage of the army. Bobie Town lies across this main transportation route and its geographical location is extremely important.
However, in order to tempt the Siam Army to invade, Gu Changfeng only arranged a battalion of troops here, and the Siam Army, which was actively attacking, had an absolute number advantage and rushed towards the position in waves.
Flares rose to the sky one by one. Amid the sound of machine gun shooting, snipers from all squads quickly shot key figures in the group. First, the officers who learned from the Japanese rushed in front with command knives, and then the Siamese machine gunners and grenades. One by one, the hateful guys, spurted dazzling blood arrows from their heads, and fell to the ground one after another.
The infantrymen of the Anjia Army were lying on the trenches, and the bullets fired from the semi-automatic rifles flew out like a whirlwind, knocking down the Siamese soldiers who were rushing in front of the position. Many of the Siamese infantrymen were lying down to shoot, but their shooting skills were very poor, and even ten shots might not be able to hit a shot.
However, there were too many Siamese people. Under the charge one after another, the Siamese infantry at the forefront had already arrived less than thirty meters away from the first trench. Suddenly, overwhelming grenades flew out of the trenches of the Anjia Army and smashed them hard into the dense crowd of people like locusts.
Grenades fell into the crowd, bursting out fireballs, countless pieces of steel flew everywhere, and violent explosions, and the Siamese soldiers let out terrifying screams and fell to the ground.
However, the number advantage still plays a significant role. Although the grenade temporarily exploded a fault of more than 30 meters wide, it was instantly filled by the Siamese army rushing behind and pushed it to the position ten meters. The officers and soldiers of the Anjia Army on the position seemed to be vaguely heard of the breathing sounds made by their opponents.
At this time, the Anjia Army began to use mortars to block and shoot.
"Bang bang--"
After the sound of a row of mortars fired, shells flew into the sky in pieces and reached the highest point. The shells were smashed into the dense crowd of Siamese soldiers with a harsh roar.
"Boom--"
A series of explosions sounded, and countless black and red fireballs rose from the ground. Sharp fragments flew in the air, passing through the flesh and blood of the Siamese soldiers. Some were cut into two pieces, some were cut off their heads, some were broken limbs, and some were beaten into hornet's nests. Screams were endless, and the Siamese soldiers on the ground flew everywhere.
At the same time, the sniper shot accurately at the Siamese officers, machine gunners and grenade launchers who were huddling outside the explosion point, and beat the heads of the monkey-like guys into rotten watermelons.
With the cooperation of mortars and snipers, the soldiers in the trench once again threw locust-like grenades to the front of the position.
The overwhelming grenades blew up the Siamese soldiers who were approaching the trenches, and their flesh and blood were flying everywhere, screaming in succession.
In just a short time, more than 2,000 casualties had occurred in the Siamese people. In this case, the Siamese officers who were commanding the battle were ruthless. Infantry artillery, field artillery and mountain artillery of various caliber poured dense rain of bullets into the Anjia Army's positions. Various fireballs of various sizes fell to the ground, and countless fireballs of all sizes rose up. The violent explosions were violently exploding, and the rolling flames merged into a dense wall of flames. All the people who were close to the flames were corpses on the spot, and even the bones were blown away.
Siamese soldiers who were lying on the ground crawling forward were seriously injured under the suppression of their own artillery fire, and the soldiers of the Anjia Army also suffered serious casualties. For a moment, the incomplete bodies of soldiers from both sides were lying on the trenches.
The bursting brain, splashing blood, broken bodies, limbs burned into charred, and corpses on both sides felt disgusting. The dirty and turbulent air was filled with pungent smell of gunpowder, the smell of blood and the vomiting burnt smell.
The guard battalion commander in the rear town was about to split his eyes. He was about to order to join the reserve team, but instructor Jiang Wentian called him: "The battalion commander, division, regiment commander gave us a task of resisting for one hour, and it would be a illusion for the Siam army to carry out heroic resistance. Now we have repelled the enemy's three charges, and the time has been almost two hours, so we can retreat."
The battalion commander pointed outside the town and shouted loudly: "Old Jiang, look, our soldiers were bleeding and sacrificed outside, but you called retreat. I, Zhang Meng, had never fought such a cowardly battle. I want to withdraw you, so I will take people up..."
"Comrade Zhang Meng!"
Jiang Wentian grabbed the battalion commander who was about to rush out of the command post: "What you should do now is not revenge, but to execute the orders of superiors. If we want to take the initiative of morality internationally, we must put the Siamese people on the border to fight! At present, the preparations for the group army and the front army have been completed. Don't you know that if you insist on doing it alone, you will ruin a big deal? The most important thing is that if you continue to do this, you will bring our battalion into a desperate situation!"
Zhang Meng was immediately awakened when Jiang Wentian yelled like this.
With the implementation of the political commissar system in the army, instructors have become de facto deputy positions. Sometimes, they can even replace the commander who makes mistakes and serve as the command of the army.
"All right!"
Zhang Meng finally chose to execute the commands from his superiors.
Soon, the guard battalion was gradually withdrawn from the positions under the shelling of the Siam Army, and quickly boarded the trucks, motorcycles, armored vehicles that had already been started, and some rode horses and retreated quickly.
After half an hour of fire suppression, the Siam Army launched another attack, and this time it went smoothly. It rushed into Poppy Town without much effort. Soon, it "smoothly" occupied the "great victory" of Poppy Town, which had a "large amount of troops" defense, and reported it to the heads and minds of the Siam Army Central Cluster and the defense department of Bangkok, causing a carnival.
