"It was a converted merchant ship. That time they put the cannonballs on the other side's deck. I just detonated their ammunition, and then they were canceled."
Zhou Weiguo made it clear in a few words.
Takeshita Jun suddenly understood.
If it was a merchant ship modified, it would be different.
"Can you ask them to bring the cannonballs to the deck so that we can take action?"
Xiao Ya pointed to the destroyer in the distance that was preparing for the second round of bombardment and asked.
This may be difficult.
Takeshita Jun believes that this probability is not very high. They have a complete ammunition arsenal and also have the strictest discipline.
Cannonballs cannot be piled up randomly.
"It's difficult, they won't do it." Jun Takeshita meant what Zhou Weiguo meant.
Zhou Weiguo looked back and forth before saying, "Ignore him, let him blow up again."
If it explodes again, the destroyer will probably stop.
After all, if you go up, you are out of range.
If they don't take down the duckbill bend, they won't dare to go up there rashly. It's easy to get cleaned up.
"I think exposing the position of the artillery is the only way to allow them to dock more safely when the time comes." Takeshita Jun looked at the busy Japanese ships in the distance, lowered his head and thought for a moment before making a suggestion.
Expose artillery positions.
This is indeed a good approach.
Our artillery battalion is not the main force to deal with them this time. It is located far to the rear. Even if the Japanese army is powerful, it will take some time to estimate.
During this period of time, the artillery units that hit and run will have time to evacuate.
Even if the artillery is too late, the people can evacuate quickly.
As for the artillery, if it is gone, it is gone. If it is gone, I will go and grab it when the time comes. But if the person is gone, it will be a crime.
"Receive the artillery battalion."
No interest in fighting at all.
Matsui, who had been watching the battle on the bridge for a while, saw that the opponent's position was already sparse. He immediately lost interest and returned to the command tower, boringly flipping through the newspapers of the past few days.
The shelling started again, and the sound was a bit harsh. Matsui frowned and decided to go to the cabin to take a nap.
He believed that when he woke up, the Duckbill Bend position would already be under the control of the Imperial Navy.
Boom boom boom...
A faint sound suppressed by his own artillery sounded in his ears, followed by an explosion on the water surface.
Matsui put down the newspaper in his hand and came to the observation place and looked over.
The enemy's artillery is counterattacking.
Judging from the size, this should be a field gun often used by the Army's Red Deer.
"Naive, do they think that this little thing can pose a threat to us?" Matsui said dissatisfied.
Although it didn't pose much of a threat, it was still a cannonball and would pose a threat to the gunners on the deck.
Ono knew that Matsui looked down on others.
But this is war, even a bullet can kill someone, let alone a cannonball.
"Sir, we still have to destroy their artillery positions. After all, they are artillery, not fire sticks."
After taking down the position, if the ship suffers any damage, it will really be a shame.
It would be strange if the higher authorities did not investigate your responsibility.
How do you explain the fact that the infantry has been beaten into a mess?
Although Matsui was a little dissatisfied, he still nodded: "Find them and get rid of them."
Artillery position.
Based on the adjustments made by Zhou Weiguo, Li Dequan smashed the cannonball over desperately.
After a few shells were fired.
Li Dequan immediately shouted: "Quick, move, move, drag the artillery away, don't worry about the shells."
An order came from the regimental commander to just push the artillery away, without the shells.
They probably planned to have the other party blow them up.
As for what the reason is.
This wasn't something he considered.
What he had to consider was how to push these artillery pieces to a safe place.
At the very least, don't let the bombs explode into the sky.
"It's so fast."
Zhou Weiguo saw that the other party was already adjusting the muzzle of the gun and muttered.
He estimated that Li Dequan's artillery fired only five rounds. The opponent actually estimated the distance so quickly.
"I hope they evacuated, otherwise once this thing falls, the closer ones will be gone."
Takeshita Jun wanted to sit down, but this kind of cannonball doesn't allow you to sit down. If you sit down, you probably won't be able to get up. He could only press his hands on the table and look in the direction where Zhou Weiguo was looking.
Li Dequan had followed Zhou Weiguo for so long, and he believed that Li Dequan knew his intentions.
"Don't worry, they have probably evacuated. All that's left for them are some artillery shells."
Takeshita Shun turned to look at Zhou Weiguo; "You deliberately left artillery shells for them to explode, so that they would think that your artillery was gone, so that Tanma could stop the ship unscrupulously. In this way, you can focus on the rear
Heavy artillery, plus all your weapons, start shooting at them."
"Yes, I was given three days from above. As you can see, the round of bombing just now destroyed one of my companies. If they are allowed to continue like this, I am afraid that my entire battalion will be scrapped in less than a day."
No matter what I say, I will fight them back. Only in this way can we survive for three days.
Otherwise, it would be a fool's errand. I don't even know how he died.
Let's call back and talk about it first, so that even if they come here to rest, it's another day, and the next day, just fight them hard.
boom……
There was a roar behind him, followed by explosions one after another.
The shell exploded.
Everything is over.
Matsui looked at the thick smoke and explosions in the distance and knew that the opponent's artillery position had been destroyed.
What he was afraid of was the opponent's artillery. Now that the artillery had been destroyed.
He won't have any fears.
He turned around and conveyed an order.
anchor.
This will help your artillery launch bombardments at distant positions.
The word "anchored" shocked Xiaoye. If the other party had any back-up plan at that time, it would really blow up the other party.
"Captain, do you really want to anchor? Once anchored, it will take some time for us to start again." Ono came to him.
He was really worried.
Faintly, it seemed that the other party did it on purpose.
It went so smoothly.
Not even a moment after the opponent dispatched their artillery, he destroyed their artillery.
This is too easy.
How could they possibly be so prepared?
"Do you still think they have a backup plan?" Songlin crossed his arms, looked at the gray position in the distance and asked with a sidelong glance.
Ono does have this intention, too smooth is not a good thing.
"Yes, Captain, my subordinates are worried."
Matsui didn't wait for Ono to finish what he said. He smiled lightly: "They don't have this ability yet."
