The launched rocket flew in the air for about two seconds.
boom--
The rocket accurately hit the Japanese turret 200 meters away. With a violent explosion like muffled thunder, the Japanese turret was instantly enveloped in flames and smoke.
The entire turret collapsed like a piece of rubble, with rubble and rubble flying everywhere, and then the firelight and gunpowder smoke turned into a ball of fire that suddenly bloomed upwards.
As the smoke and dust dispersed, the Japanese gun tower became completely silent, and the two original machine gun fire points were all misfired.
"I hit it!" Seeing this scene, Wei Dayong grinned and whispered.
Lu Yingjun immediately raised his Zeiss telescope and looked intently at the Japanese artillery tower.
Through the blurred vision, I could see that the Japanese artillery tower originally built on the side of the road had been reduced to broken ruins.
"This power..." Lu Yingjun's pupils shrank slightly, he put down the telescope, and looked a little stunned.
This is a medium-sized turret. Although it is made of masonry, if you use infantry artillery to bomb it, it will take at least six or seven consecutive hits to collapse it.
But using this bazooka rocket launcher, it can be killed with one shot?
Lu Yingjun looked at the rocket launcher a few meters away, his expression showing shock and surprise that others could not see.
During World War II, the Bazooka had an effective armor-piercing capability of 130 mm, while the thickness of the Tiger tank's armor was only 100 mm.
The Super Bazooka produced by the system has an armor-piercing capability of 280 mm. The rocket is loaded with nearly 1kg of potent TNT gunpowder. Coupled with the excellent armor-piercing capability, it is an ordinary reinforced concrete fortification, let alone a masonry turret.
It is also vulnerable to it.
The rocket just now penetrated the defense of the artillery building, exploded directly into the artillery building, collapsed the entire artillery building, and killed and injured all the Japanese and puppet troops inside.
It is as powerful as a 105-caliber howitzer, which is no exaggeration at all.
After the rocket hit the turret, the team members on the west and north sides were too far away to see what was going on. They continued to fire for a while. When they saw that the Japanese did not fight back, they stopped shooting.
"Forward!" Lu Yingjun made a tactical sign to the front.
The team members stood up one after another, held their weapons, and moved toward the gun tower in battle formation.
After entering from the suspension bridge, it didn't take long for Lu Yingjun to lead the first combat team to the blockhouse. At this time, the blockhouse had been blown down, and there were broken bricks and stones everywhere under his feet.
The team members, who only saw the situation of the Japanese gun towers clearly when they got closer, were stunned, with their mouths slightly open, and they were stunned for a long time.
Just this thing, is it so powerful?
How long has it been?
It’s not even five minutes, right?
A medium-sized turret was destroyed?
"Ma Jucai!" Lu Yingjun shouted back.
A team member named Ma Jucai walked forward to the front of the crowd carrying an M2 flamethrower and raised his spray gun to aim at the ruins of the turret.
Ma Jucai pressed the control valve and ignition trigger, and the flames immediately spit out and turned into a long fire snake. In an instant, it spread to the turret and penetrated into the turret along the cracks in the bricks. Soon, several sounds came from inside.
There was a heart-rending scream, and some Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers were set on fire.
This blockhouse is more than ten meters high and has three floors. The rocket hit the second floor. The doors and shooting holes were blocked by the masonry of the second and third floors. However, there were still Japanese and puppet troops on the first floor.
not dead.
Ma Jucai held the flame gun and sprayed it for more than ten seconds. He stopped when he heard the explosion of bullets and grenades from inside the turret.
At this time, Wang Xikui and Li Changshun arrived with the second and third combat teams.
One by one, their eyes widened as they looked at the turrets that had been demolished by a rocket in front of them.
Lu Yingjun took out his pocket watch and checked the time. The whole battle lasted less than 5 minutes. It was estimated that the Japanese had not even had time to ask for help from the county town. The speed was a bit ridiculous.
Bang! Lu Yingjun flicked his hand, and the pocket watch made a clear sound and automatically closed and put it into his pocket.
"It's too early to go back now, let's pull out two more turrets."
Of the three rockets I brought out this time to test their power, only one was used, and the remaining two were in vain.
One rocket is exchanged for one Japanese turret, it’s not a loss!
"Set off!"
Lu Yingjun waved his hand, and the team members quickly disappeared into the darkness.
He didn't even bother to clean the battlefield.
After North China Front Army Jun Tada took office, he implemented a cage policy of fishing from the lake. A stronghold was set up every 10 miles on important highways such as Shotai Road, a stronghold was set up every 23 miles on the railway, and the Yuliao Highway was also every 10 miles.
There is a blockhouse.
Led by Lu Yingjun, the Sharp Sword Special Forces used rocket launchers to destroy three artillery towers around Liao County in one night.
…
Early the next morning, the Liao County Gendarmerie arrived.
"Your Excellency, Major, last night, the three gun towers in Dalu Village, Dashi Hall, and Matian on the Yuliao Highway were attacked. All the imperial troops in these gun towers were smashed to pieces!"
"None of these three blockhouses made a call for help to the county last night. According to the report of the imperial army who went to investigate, all three blockhouses were destroyed!"
At the gendarmerie headquarters, a staff officer reported news that made his scalp numb to gendarmerie captain Takeo Honda.
Overnight, three gun towers on the Yuliao Highway were quietly torn down, and nearly 50 Japanese soldiers were killed!
Takeo Honda's cold sweat ran down his face, and a stream of cold sweat flowed down his back and into his groin.
As for the dead Imperial Army soldiers, Honda Takeo didn't care at all. They were just a bunch of dogs, and they were just dead.
"Can you tell what kind of weapon the Eighth Route Army used?" Honda Takeo asked quickly.
It was common for the artillery towers on the highway to be attacked by the Eighth Route Army. Some of the artillery towers were also taken away by the Eighth Route Army. The Japanese army was not passively attacked. According to the tactics of the Eighth Route Army, they continued to strengthen the defense of the artillery towers and innovated tactics, such as digging trenches around the artillery towers and cleaning up the surrounding areas.
All hidden locations within 1 kilometer, form fast mobile troops, etc.
But like this time, the blockhouse was destroyed without even making a call for help. This was the first time Takeo Honda encountered such a strange situation.
The Eighth Route Army must have used weapons of mass destruction...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mortars and 105mm cannons were immediately rejected by Takeo Honda.
Mortars have limited damage to gun towers, and 105-caliber cannons... whether the Eighth Route Army has them is still a question.
Even if they had it, there were only a handful of them in the entire Eighth Route Army, and there were even fewer artillery shells. Wouldn't it be a huge waste to use a 105-caliber cannon to hit the turrets?
The Eighth Route Commander would definitely not do that.
Although infantry artillery can also pose a threat to gun towers, it is absolutely impossible for these gun towers to be unable to call for help.
Could it be that the Eighth Route Army used 75mm mountain guns or field guns?
"It's not clear yet, but traces of being baked have been found on every turret. The specific situation will have to wait until the imperial army who went to deal with the aftermath report back!" the staff officer responded.
Takeo Honda asked again: "Have other gun towers been attacked?"
Every day, the gendarmerie combat staff will make a telephone call to each gun building.
"Everyone has been contacted!" the staff officer replied, "None of the other gun towers have been attacked!"
Honda Takeo breathed a sigh of relief, then his eyes suddenly widened with a look of horror on his face.
None of the other gun towers were attacked, which means that the Eighth Route Army only attacked these three gun towers, and none of these three gun towers were spared!
One dozen and one is accurate...
There's big trouble.
"Baga!" Takeo Honda slapped the desk hard, causing all the appliances on the table to shake.
Hiss! Damn it!
I accidentally applied too much force!
Takeo Honda's palms instantly turned red, and his whole arms trembled slightly. He took a deep breath and tried to suppress the annoyance in his heart.
It's unlucky for people to have water stuck between their teeth.
He suddenly understood why many Japanese officers liked to slap their subordinates in the face. A slap in the face was not as painful as a slap on the table.
Looking at the staff officer's cheek, Honda Takeo resisted the urge to slap him.
"Send the order to withdraw the Imperial Army in the highway gun towers into their strongholds. Only the Imperial Army will be left in the gun towers."
"Order all gun towers and strongholds to strengthen their defenses. If attacked, call the county seat immediately!"
"Hi!" the staff officer paused, glanced at Takeo Honda's palm, and walked quickly out the door.
…
In Yangcun, the new regiment headquarters.
"Report!" Lu Yingjun's voice sounded outside the door.
"Come in!" Li Yunlong said.
Lu Yingjun bent down and opened the door curtain and walked into the inner room of the regiment headquarters.
"Back?" Li Yunlong looked at Lu Yingjun and asked hurriedly, "How was the battle last night?"
The corner of Lu Yingjun's mouth curled up slightly: "Commander, how many gun towers do you think we killed last night?"
Li Yunlong's expression changed and his eyes widened: "Did you really kill the gun tower last night?"
After making an OK gesture, Lu Yingjun chuckled: "We killed three Japanese medium-sized artillery towers last night, and we should have wiped out 100 Japanese and puppet troops."
"It's a pity that we only brought 3 rockets last night."
"If there are enough rockets, our sharp sword detachment could have taken down all the artillery towers outside Liao County last night!"
"Oh my God?" Li Yunlong's eyes widened, "You guys in the 30s of the Sharp Sword Squadron took down three gun towers last night, didn't you brag to me?"
"What's there to brag about?" Lu Yingjun said, "Aren't they just three gun towers?"
Li Yunlong asked: "Are there any casualties in your unit?"
"No." Lu Yingjun said, "There is not a single casualty."
After a pause, Li Yunlong asked: "That thing is like a big speaker, is it really so useful?"
Although he had seen its power last time and it was very powerful, Li Yunlong didn't know much about whether it was useful or not.
"The power is really great." Lu Yingjun chuckled and said, "At a distance of 200 meters, one gun for each turret. Commander, you might as well give me the remaining rockets. Our sharp sword special detachment will attack the Yuliao Highway.
The entire turret can fall."
There are now a total of 30 rockets, and each use requires Li Yunlong’s personal approval.
"You kid can't just play dumb." Li Yunlong said, "We already alerted the enemy last night. The devils will probably be on guard tonight and wait a while before going."
"Yes!" Lu Yingjun nodded, "Anyway, the Japanese artillery towers can't escape. We'll visit again after a while."
"Our Eighth Route Army may have a big operation during this period." Li Yunlong touched his chin and asked, "Is this thing suitable for a large amount of equipment?"
