Chapter 115 Mortar

We must never fight an uncertain battle. Sambo, who has experienced many battles, is very clear about the dangers that soldiers will face if they attack the enemy's strong watchtowers and bunkers without effective fire cover.

We must find ways to form effective firepower. Sanbao thought about the weapons currently owned by the team. What the team currently has are rifles and light machine guns, as well as grenades and mines in the hands of the soldiers. In addition, there are several grenade launchers. These are probably

It can't even suppress the enemy's firepower, let alone destroy it.

In addition, Sanbao also has a heavy machine gun that was removed from the Japs tank. Sanbao has repaired it. It has intensive firepower, but there is no gun stand at this time. Sanbao once thought of tying it to a tree branch, but the Japs

The trees around the watchtower had been cut down, and this could only provide fire cover for the soldiers. Sanbao thought of the dense shooting holes on the watchtower and the surrounding bunkers. The soldiers still had to use their flesh and blood to hold the explosives.

It won't work if we just go on the offensive! We can't let the soldiers face huge sacrifices in a forceful attack.

Sanbao has been thinking about it for the past few days. He ordered all the weapons captured by the team to be brought to him. At the same time, he was thinking about the defenses of the Japanese stronghold that he had scouted several times, trying to find a breakthrough.

A section of steel pipe among the piled weapons caught his attention. Sanbao picked it up and looked at it. It should be the barrel of the Japanese 60 mortar, which Sanbao had seen in the army.

"Li Yong," Sanbao shouted to Li Yong on the side: "Why are there only gun barrels here?"

"Captain, this was captured by the transport team you used to ambush the Japs last time. It was originally separated and no one in our team knew how to use it, so it was kept there. I don't know who moved it out this time."

"Captain, it's me." Shanzi who was accompanying him immediately reported: "Didn't you say that you should take out all the weapons in our team and take a look? I just found them from the warehouse, but I just brought this pipe.

.”

"Go quickly and get the rest." Sanbao shouted immediately.

Soon, Shanzi ran back with the iron frame in one hand and the base in the other. The three of them worked hard to assemble the cannon, and Sambo also understood the functions of each component during the installation.

The two leg stands and the gun body installed on the seat plate stabilize the gun on the ground. The height of the muzzle is adjusted through the height machine under the leg stand. This is used to adjust the shelling distance, and the steering wheel on one side of the gun body is used to adjust the direction.

"Go and bring a box of cannonballs." Sanbao ordered proudly.

Soon, Shanzi handed a mortar shell to Sanbao. "Are you going to put this shell in and shoot it out?" Shanzi asked.

"I've seen it, it should be like this." Sanbao replied, playing with the cannonball, but then he asked: "Where is the gunpowder on this cannonball?"

"What gunpowder?" Shanzi asked.

"Hmph, this thing is just like the two-kick kick I used to play at home. The cylinder at the bottom is filled with propellant, and the cannonballs are activated by it." Sanbao replied angrily.

"I'm sorry." Li Yong replied carefully.

"What?" Sanbao asked.

"You didn't need a detonator to detonate before. I know that the mortar shell slides down in the barrel and is activated by the force of the fall hitting the firing pin at the bottom. When I thought about it, the gunpowder went off as soon as it was touched. Naturally, this is what you need.

So I dismantled it." Li Yong said as if he was showing some merit. He saw that he must have done something wrong this time. So he continued: "But I didn't dismantle much, and you seized a lot. Let's

There are many more.”

"Humph, let me spare you first." Sanbao replied, "Go and find him quickly."

Finally, a box of mortar shells with propellant was brought over. This time it not only brought propellant, but also a powder bag. Sambo compared it. It seemed that this one was installed on the tail fin of the shell, and that one was for

Increase the launch power.

"Let's go and try." Sanbao immediately ordered.
