While Wang Chengzhu and his two senior brothers recalled their study experience and talked about the recent results of their unit, the brigade chief of staff, accompanied by the director of the military affairs department, walked into the temporary office of the military affairs department.
The officer on duty was very discerning and hurriedly walked out of the room. He introduced the regimental artillery squad leaders who had come to report to the director of the military affairs department. After hearing the situation, the brigade chief of staff shook hands with the comrades who rushed to the brigade headquarters one by one to express welcome. The brigade chief of staff pulled over a civilian cadre wearing glasses and introduced to the squad leaders at the scene: "Comrade artillerymen, this is the artillery staff officer of the brigade headquarters. Tonight, he will represent the brigade headquarters and be responsible for guiding everyone in operations. Brigade headquarters correspondent
Convey the order to him and ask comrades to be ready to fire off the gun and show off the military power."
Outside the civilian house of the Military Affairs Office, a firm and loud reply came: "Please rest assured, chief, and resolutely complete the task.",
The glasses staff led the way forward and led the seconded troops to collect the weapons and ammunition that had been stored in the warehouse. With the current shortage of guns and the particularity of artillery, in addition to mortars and grenades, the artillery squad’s firepower consisted of only pistols and engineers.
Shovels and solid sticks for emergency transfer of artillery stretchers, etc.
The glasses staff signed for the equipment of the seconded artillery squad from the weapons warehouse of the Munitions Department, and used a warrant issued by the headquarters to lend out three revolvers and five sleeve rifles, as well as a base number of ammunition for each weapon.
In self-defense.
After the soldiers took back the gun body, gun mount and self-portable ammunition, the Munitions Department took out a base number of mortar shells and handed them to the glasses staff.
The glasses staff led the artillery soldiers carrying the equipment to the temporary station of the brigade artillery platoon to wait for orders. The artillery platoon directly under the 38th Army Brigade has a Type 92 70mm infantry cannon, a Type 94 37mm rapid-fire cannon and two ten-gun platoons.
One-year 70mm mortar, thirty-seven soldiers serve four guns.
The correspondent did not keep the artillery staff and soldiers waiting for long. He walked into the artillery platoon station with the folder in his arms. He saluted the glasses staff and handed over the artillery battle plan. After receiving the read receipt signed by the staff, the correspondent turned and left quickly.
,Return to the headquarters to resume orders.
The spectacled staff officer walked to the center of the yard with the battle plan, read out the brigade headquarters battle plan to the artillery soldiers standing in the yard, and then handed the authenticated handwritten plan to the squad and platoon leaders for circulation.
After confirming that the content was correct, under the command and coordination of the artillery platoon leader and the glasses staff, the soldiers started to move. They dragged the wheeled infantry guns and rapid-fire cannons onto the saddle saddles of donkeys and mules, and carried the disassembled muskets.
Fire artillery and boxed ammunition and rush to the predetermined artillery position.
After arriving at the place, the soldiers quickly set up firing positions. They took out the artillery shells from the boxes and waited until the planned time came to use the artillery shells to open up the enemy's defensive positions for the infantry.
Wang Chengzhu sat cross-legged on the ground, squinting his eyes and tapping his thighs with his fingers. Twenty minutes later, the gunnery master's proficiency reached Expert Level 31, and the buff status reached 134%. The buff status was synchronized to the body.
You need to wait until 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, and the upper limit of potion usage for experienced people has been increased.
Wang Chengzhu stood up and chatted with the soldiers of the brigade direct artillery platoon. While waiting for the firing order, Wang Chengzhu asked the names of all the artillery soldiers. Using the team system, the sixty-eight comrades present were organized into seventeen teams.
Team, sharing challenger proficiency effects and own adventure group aura, etc.
At 22:00 on March 11, 1940, from the brigade commander down to the battalion commander, the minute and second hands of the watches and pocket watches returned to twelve o'clock, and the action began as planned.
The spectacled staff officer shouted an order to the artillery platoon leader, asking the flag soldiers to wave the red flag and fire ten rounds rapidly.
The bolt-action artilleryman stood in a safe area and pulled the gun rope. A loud "bang" sound reached the ears of Wang Chengzhu, who was squatting 20 meters away, with his mouth wide open and his hat curtain down. The shock made him sit down behind the seat. The lingering sound made his head feel dizzy, but Wang Chengzhu quickly got up and held on to the mortar that was shaken. He raised his right thumb to measure the range again and fine-tuned the ruler to aim at the intended target. He took the mortar shell handed over by the second gunner.
, put the warhead into the barrel with the warhead facing up.
As soon as Wang Chengzhu let go, he covered his ears and leaned back, and there was a crisp "bang" sound. Wang Chengzhu looked at the landing area one kilometer away, and the bang sound was mixed with the surrounding noise, and it was not easy to hear.
In the night, Wang Chengzhu saw three messages about killing pseudo-guard soldiers in the system battle-related records, and he knew that he had hit the target. The cadres and soldiers around him seemed to have telescopes in front of them, and they saw a red cursor in Wang Chengzhu's field of vision.
The shadows were only 5% transparent, so these images were ignored by the soldiers as dizzy hallucinations.
"Boom"......
"Boom"......
Open the gate, remove the shells, clean the firing chamber, load the shells, load the extended-range charges, close the gun gate, and the artillerymen walk to the safe firing zone and pull the gun rope.
Soon, the rapid fire of ten rounds of artillery shells ended. The soldiers of the artillery platoon pushed the hot shell cases into the pre-dug anti-explosion pit, put away the artillery hoes, and pulled the gun carriage away from the launch site. The soldiers of the mortar squad also performed similar operations, using
The pole lifter and engineer shovel dug out the seat plate, and carefully lifted the seat plate holding the smoking gun body away from the firing position.
This is a basic safety operation of artillery. When it is known that the enemy has reciprocal artillery fire and counterattack capabilities, quickly leave the preset artillery position after firing. Bring available items, or rush to the next predetermined position, or move closer to friendly infantry. After the artillery soldiers left the firing position with gunpowder smoke in the air, less than ten minutes later, a field of artillery shells brought up the soil one or two meters deep to the surface.
The donkeys and mules with their ears stuffed with cloth dragged the wheeled artillery frame and headed about five hundred meters toward the northeast where the fighting was in full swing. They were overtaken by the out-of-breath correspondent. The correspondent found the glasses staff member and saluted and handed him
Pass a copy of the authentication note.
Written on the note was the location of the enemy artillery counterattack seen by the observation post. Please ask the brigade artillery fire to fire five rounds rapidly in the area, and then continue to move the team.
After receiving the order, the glasses staff officer forwarded the order to the artillery platoon leader for review. After confirming that it was correct, he signed a receipt to the correspondent. Then, he issued an on-the-spot firing order to the artillerymen marching on the roads in villages and towns.
Since the target artillery counterattack position is two kilometers away, it exceeds the maximum firing range of the five Type 11 70mm mortars. This artillery mission was completed by the Type 92 70mm infantry cannon and the Type 94 37mm rapid-fire cannon. The remaining soldiers were
Continue to slow down and march outside the safe area.
Wang Chengzhu complied with the order and only released two chattering Yu Guo puppets for the five teams of soldiers who were left on the roadside to dig hoe pits.
A bald man carrying a blue cross, wearing a white shirt and blue overalls, with a yellow holy light shining behind him. Standing behind the user's artillery squad leader, the illusive figure attracted a few glances. It was just that the soldiers were busy performing their tasks, and
Didn't pay too much attention.
After completing the counterattack mission, the soldiers towed the wheeled gun mount and left the launch site. They brought the donkey and mules over and attached the towing bracket. They caught up with the mortar soldiers waiting not far away and continued to move.
Yu Guo, who silently cast the Source of Life on the artillery squad leader, turned into specks of stardust after the fifteen-minute time limit, fell to the ground and disappeared.
