Chapter 1439 The Grass (Part 2)

Yes, the weakening of combat power caused by the indescribable conflict between the Black Hawk Army, Navy and Army.

In fact, what dominates the direction of this flesh-and-blood battlefield is sacrifice and courage.

Of course, there were artillery soldiers to which the 62nd Division belonged. As the general commander of the Black Hawk Army suffered, they had artillery, but they were definitely not heavy artillery. The general commander of the Black Hawk Army was just finding a reasonable excuse for the major casualties and injuries of the 114th Division under his command and snatched a pot of shit on the navy's grandsons.

The kingdoms can use "heavy artillery" to bombard our landing troops because your navy's carrier-based aircraft is dispatched too little. Not only the navy's grandson will use procrastination tactics to deal with the turbulent army, but the turbulent army is actually very capable of frame-up.

What is the artillery support of the 62nd Division?

The Kingdom established an Army Organizer, and its artillery reorganization department unified the original artillery within its jurisdiction and imported artillery in recent years into reserve artillery units, but what was the result?

There are only 567 artillery pieces that can be used for field combat, of which 110 are too old and were eliminated, and the remaining 456 are available. The equipment of combat troops includes 132 mountain cannons, 252 field cannons, and 32 howitzers. 456 cannons are used. This is the entire property of the Central Army of the Kingdom.

Some people may not understand the meaning of 456 artillery. If you compare the artillery equipment of an infantry division of the Black Hawk Army, you will know that a Black Hawk Army division is actually a mountain division, which is similar to the Eighth Division that the Independent Regiment once faced. Each division is equipped with an artillery gang with 36 75mm 41 style mountain cannons. Each infantry gang has 4 75mm 41 style mountain cannons. 70mm infantry cannons are not counted. A pack horse division has 52 75mm mountain cannons.

This is not the case with those artillery brigades that formed a single army. The 11 Black Hawk military divisions that participated in the battle in Haicheng were equipped with hundreds of artillery pieces, which was far higher than all the artillery pieces owned by the Central Army, the strongest power of the Kingdom. In addition to the old man in Lingpizhou who was also confronting the Black Hawk Army's northern sending troops in Lingpizhou, equipped with hundreds of mountain cannons above 75mm caliber, the remaining warlords had very few artillery pieces and were almost negligible. Even if they could have 81mm mortars, they would be well equipped.

The light weapons of the Kingdom Army are not inferior to those of the Black Hawk Empire Army, but they are far inferior in terms of heavy weapons. This is also the main reason why a division of the Black Hawk Army can often fight against 7 or even 8 infantry divisions of the Kingdom Army.

But it would be wrong to say that the artillery of the Kingdom Army was completely slack. After all, the king was also quite wise. He would definitely be stunned when the data from the equipment sorting office was reported. He, the leader of the country, had more than 400 artillery pieces. Not to mention fighting against the Black Hawk Empire, he was still a little different from the old man in Ling Pizhou who was busy farming and silently gathering cannons.

If you sell porridge and pamper as a shorts, you have to be a cannon, right?

Since the country was in a honeymoon period with Zhouhui Kingdom during that period, Zhouhui Kingdom needed the kingdom's precious mineral resources and the kingdom needed heavy artillery, so the two sides naturally hit it off.

The kingdom spent a huge amount of money and even used mine mortgage loans to introduce the sFH-18 150mm howitzer made by Zhouhui Kingdom. This gun is burly and weighs 10 tons and requires special internal combustion vehicles to traction. However, the maximum range of this kind of artillery is more than 15 kilometers, and it is equipped with armor-piercing bombs, explosive bombs, incendiary bombs, and smokescreen bombs. It is completely "crunching" against the Black Hawk Empire Army artillery. It is also the only heavy equipment that the Kingdom artillery has won the Black Hawk Army artillery.

Of course, the Black Hawk Empire Army also has its own heavy artillery, not the heavy artillery on the ships of the Navy's grandsons. It is just because of the limited funding and the inherent characteristics of its own nation. Their heavy artillery was also designed by artillery designers based on the national characteristics of the skin-cutting eyes and sucking juice.

They use the 150mm field howitzer. The four-year 150 heavy artillery produced by the Osaka Artillery Factory highlights the "light and small" characteristics under the requirements of saving money and saving money, as well as the transportation of mules and horses in the field troops of the Black Hawk Army. Each structural component is light and weighs less than three tons. After decomposition, it can be pulled by mules and horses.

Of course, the focus of heavy artillery is not on heavy artillery, but this thing is a bit similar to future cars. Cars are very economical and fuel-efficient, but when they are high, they will probably fall apart like paper. In terms of safety, they are much worse than European and American cars with larger weight. The same is true for this heavy artillery. The penetration of this cannon is basically mainly killing and blasting bombs. As the saying goes, "You get what you pay for." Because it is so small, the four-year-old type with a short tube has a range of only 8,800 meters, and even the range of a 105 howitzer is not as good as that.

According to the Black Hawk Armor artillery designer, the kingdoms even have few cannons above 75 mm. The Black Hawk Empire Army is still afraid of a ball, so why is there a shorter range?

Therefore, the Black Hawk Imperial Army, which used 150 field howitzers for actual combat in a large battle, was blinded by heavy artillery bombardment. In several tug-of-wars, the Black Hawk Navy Haicheng Special Marine Corps Artillery and the Army Haicheng Expeditionary Army's First Heavy Artillery were successively beaten by the 10th Armor Regiment. The only regret is that the Kingdom Army had too few heavy artillery equipment. In addition to 150 heavy artillery, the Black Hawk Army had air superiority and sea control rights, and the number of 150 howitzers were far higher than that of the Kingdom. Finally, relying on the wolf pack tactics and numerical advantages of air raids and swimming artillery positions, they finally seized the initiative on the battlefield.

However, after nearly three months of bloody battle in Haicheng, the Kingdom artillery also suffered heavy losses. The two artillery brigades and four artillery regiments left only two. The front line of the west of Haicheng wanted to block the attack of the Black Hawk Army's more than 100,000 troops, and the remaining dozens of 150 heavy artillery were indispensable. It is impossible to transfer from the front line to the unthreatening Ashui Port. No such a ridiculous order would be issued, including the king.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although the Bofos Mountain cannons have fewer cannons, their range is farther, up to 9 kilometers, and their accuracy is high enough, and instead become the absolute backbone of the artillery support force. Moreover, the artillery soldiers who fought the early war in Haicheng have learned to be smart. They never fired fire in one place for more than 10 minutes. Each cannon fired more than a dozen shells in the target area that had been set long ago, and then dismantled the cannon and let the pack horse carry it and redirected the position. The woods and vacant houses became their best cover.

The Black Hawk Navy carrier-based aircraft, who could not find the target, did not have much patience to find these flexible kingdom artillery at a low altitude. If they could not find it, they threw the bombs they carried on the frontier positions of the kingdom army. Anyway, it was not the noble imperial navy that bleed on the beach but the army.

Therefore, the kingdom's mountain cannons, which were not large in number and were not large in caliber, shed blood on the Black Hawk Army's landing troops.

However, just ten mountain cannons were not enough to stop the landing of tens of thousands of people from the crazy Black Hawk Army. The troops that really blocked the Black Hawk Army on the mudflat positions were those Neji County Jays who were ready to die.

If the infantry company on a position is completely destroyed, then the infantry company will be added, and then the infantry company will be destroyed.

Dai Flemerre was only 500 meters away, and he only saw the kingdoms opposite him stubbornly survive in the terrible artillery fire. It seemed that he could not finish the battle.

As he described in his memoirs: the artillery fire of the Black Hawk Empire was very fierce and the landing equipment was very advanced, but they were still blocked and shed blood on the wide mudflat. The kingdoms blocked them tightly on the mudflat, and then used artillery artillery with not-so-large caliber to bombard the Black Hawk Empire. I was very confused about the construction of the kingdoms' positions. I clearly saw that the kingdoms' positions on the opposite side had become a pile of ruins under the bombardment of the terrible 200mm naval guns. I could feel the terrible vibration of the ground 500 meters away. I could guarantee that there would never be any creatures able to survive this terrible bombardment.

But I found that I was wrong. The kingdoms were so tenacious that they were still alive. When the Black Hawk Empire cheered and was about to attack forward and break through the terrifying mudflat position after their artillery fire stopped bombardment, the sound of machine guns and rifles of the kingdoms sounded again. They were like grass that had just experienced the cold winter and ushered in spring. They showed their heads tenaciously and used bullets to tell the Black Hawk Empire that this is the kingdom and this is their home.

And such repetitions were as high as five times in a day-long battle, not to mention the number of them numb me. Even the commanders of the Black Hawk Empire were numb. From then on, they became cautious, and even the kingdoms never showed up again. It took them at least thirty minutes to rush into the already empty kingdoms position, and they were only a distance of 500 meters from the kingdoms position covered with craters.

Yes, this honest Zhouhuiguo war correspondent faithfully recorded everything he saw, and was not stingy with his praise for the tenacious kingdom soldiers, even if he wrote down the war memoir in his eyes.

But he didn't know that his conclusion was wrong. The soldiers of the Kingdom were actually not as tenacious as he thought. The position he wanted to see was just temporary field fortifications that were smashed by large-caliber shells. In the face of that level of artillery shells, even the tenacious soldier would die, which could not be determined by the tenacious spirit.

But the kingdom soldiers are not afraid of death.

The "grass" that the war correspondents saw were actually just one reserve team after another rushing to the position without retreating. The "grass" in front of them had actually disappeared.

In one day's battle, the kingdom soldiers had dropped sharply from 4 infantry regiments to 2. There were two infantry regiments, almost all casualties, and the remaining two were also damaged by more than half.

If we have to say that those soldiers who survive tenaciously on the position are "small grass", then they are actually synonymous with the entire guards of Ashui Port.

Several years later, when the kingdom general who saw this article describing the Battle of Ashui Port, tears filled his cheeks instantly.
