Chapter four hundred and sixty seventh different taste
Having said this, Qiu Jintang hesitated for a moment, but still said: "It's not that I don't want to leave more for you, it's just that there are really not that many shells available. There are not even a single special shell for rocket launchers. () However,
I still have more than a thousand Japanese poison gas shells here. If you think they are of use, then I will keep them all for you."
"These poison gas shells were all captured by Commander Wang Guangyu from the 23rd Japanese Division on the Linxi battlefield. Among them, there were 500 75 mountain field shells, 300 105 heavy mountain shells, and 150 90 mortar shells.
Multiple. These poison gas shells are all suffocating poison gas shells. They were originally intended to be transferred back to the base area. If you can use them, I can leave them all to you now."
Yang Jicai was very satisfied with Qiu Jintang's answer. He also knew that he had fired so many shells in one go in his previous plan. Before the next wave of additional shells arrived at the headquarters, Qiu Jintang would definitely have very few shells left.
.If all the artillery groups are left behind, they will definitely not be able to last for too long. Although the headquarters originally planned a tactic of using a sea of fire to defeat the Japanese army's superior strength in the direction of the Aruhorqin Banner, the number of artillery shells reserved is still based on the anti-alliance
At present, mountain artillery shells are the most produced, lightest and most flexible. There are not so many heavy artillery shells and rockets with the most lethality.
Constrained by the fact that there is only a simple national defense road built by the Japanese, and that Linxi is hundreds of kilometers away from Qiqihar, the rear support base closest to the Western Manchu battlefield, if you include the need to detour to Hailar, Linxi battlefield is even close to a thousand kilometers away from the rear support base.
transportation conditions.
This only road cannot be used to transport artillery shells. The ammunition, food, and medicine consumed by the tens of thousands of troops on the Linxi battlefield, as well as the food, supplies, and part of the ammunition currently needed by the advancing army in Rehe are replenished.
The transportation of a large number of injured people, except for the seriously injured ones that are transported by air, must pass through this simple road.
The degree of mechanization of the Japanese army is low, so the roads built by the Japanese army naturally have low traffic capacity. At present, this Linxi battlefield lifeline, which is based on the simple road built by the Japanese army and has been repaired and expanded in a short period of time, is almost overloaded.
Under the situation, it is almost overwhelmed. The entire road is full of potholes, which also limits the transportation capacity to a certain extent.
Coupled with the limitations of military industry capabilities and raw material sources, the headquarters cannot guarantee to stockpile too many large-caliber artillery shells in the Aruhorqin Banner at one time. Therefore, when the battle in the Aruhorqin Banner begins, the headquarters hoards artillery shells in this direction.
Mountain field howitzer shells plus rockets are mainly composed of 75 wild mountain artillery shells and 100mm howitzers. The number of 107 rocket shells is also relatively large.
However, the total number of heavy artillery and 1, 2, 2 and 2 rocket shells in stock is only more than 10,000 rounds. However, even according to the headquarters’ previous plan, these shells are enough to last for three to five days. As for the replenishment of ammunition, the headquarters’ original plan
My plan is to make up for it as I fight.
Because the output of 155 howitzer shells and 122 rocket shells is far inferior to the output of 75mm mountain artillery shells and 100 howitzer shells. The headquarters still has to take into account various theaters, especially in Tongliao and Kailu
Chen Hanzhang's front-line troops are also fighting hard, and it is impossible to tilt inventory and all production to the Linxi front line.
That hour this morning could definitely be called crazy. It was covered with artillery fire at almost no cost. The consumption of artillery shells was almost the two-day consumption of artillery shells stipulated by the headquarters. Especially the heavy artillery shells and rockets, which were nearly doubled.
.Even the artillery had explosion accidents due to the high rate of fire, which is enough to illustrate the intensity of the shelling at that time.
An hour of firepower covered the shells fired, and even exploded into several walls of fire that were clearly visible to the naked eye. Within an hour of shelling, more than 4,000 Japanese soldiers were killed. This result is probably the first on the Chinese battlefield.
The firepower density is also the first time.
Judging from the consumption of artillery shells in that hour, Qiu Jintang's artillery reserves of artillery shells, especially the reserves of heavy artillery, are probably running low. The commander in front of him can agree to keep these artillery, and it can almost be said that
Yes, it is quite interesting to press the cannonballs at the bottom of the box.
As for the poison gas shells, he accepted them all without any hesitation. For him, since the Japanese can use poison gas shells to kill Chinese people on the battlefield, then what does he have to be taboo about? As long as he can speed up the elimination of the Seventh Division
As long as he could kill the Japanese, nothing mattered to him.
Moreover, although the unit under his current command is a new unit that was formed later, the number of helmets is insufficient and has not yet been issued with steel helmets. However, because the Japanese army often releases poisonous gas when they fail in battles or make progress difficult,
Therefore, the Japanese army's standard gas masks are one set per person according to the establishment.
Each infantry regiment also has a chemical defense company equipped with a full set of Japanese military standard chemical defense equipment. All kinds of decontamination equipment, detoxification equipment, and anti-virus drugs are available. These were developed by the Japanese army in order to massacre the Chinese.
A large amount of equipment and supplies were seized by the Anti-Japanese Alliance during last autumn's campaign.
In Harbin alone, hundreds of battlefield disinfection vehicles and poison spreader vehicles were seized. There were hundreds of thousands of various poison gas shells, poison spreaders, gas canisters and chimneys, and the rest were gas capes and cleaning agents.
, the medicines for treating poisonous gas poisoning are piling up like a mountain. Not only can each person have one of various Japanese military standard gas masks, but they can also have a certain reserve.
In order to fight against China and the possible future war against the Soviet Union, the Japanese army stockpiled a large amount of poison gas and anti-virus tools. Because North Manchuria was first the front line in the war against the Soviet Union, and later the front line in the suppression of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the Japanese army
In Qiqihar and Harbin, a large amount of chemical warfare equipment is stockpiled.
These supplies were seized almost intact during the raid by the Anti-Alliance. With these supplies, coupled with various previous reserves, the chemical warfare weapons that the Japanese army had in their arsenal were now basically useless to the Anti-Alliance.
.So during this battle, although the Japanese army had stockpiled a large number of poison gas shells and chemical warfare weapons, they rarely used them on the battlefield. Because these materials were not only difficult to use, but were even easily captured by the Anti-Japanese Alliance and used against themselves.
There are enough gas masks and complete anti-gas equipment. With this confidence, what is he afraid of the Japanese poison gas shells? On the contrary, in the previous battle, the Japanese army was equipped with relatively complete anti-Japanese gas masks and chemical defense facilities, and they had no intention of releasing poison gas.
.Because they know very clearly that releasing poisonous gas will not have much effect.
Therefore, on the contrary, the Japanese army itself does not carry many gas masks. Most of the chemical defense equipment of most troops is left behind in order to be lightly equipped. With this opportunity, these gas bombs made by the Japanese themselves will not be returned to Japan.
How can one be worthy of the countless Chinese who fell to Japanese gas bombs?
However, this guy was very satisfied and made new demands. Since all his security forces are already on the front line, it is better not to withdraw them anymore, but to keep them all. Because he now has in his hands
The military strength is really insufficient.
Regarding Yang Jicai's rather scoundrel look, Qiu Jintang smiled bitterly and agreed to him. Now that the girl has given up, do you still care about a small dowry? Anyway, these security forces now,
It can no longer be withdrawn.
The main force of its artillery will also be withdrawn to the Right Banner of Bahrain for deep rest, maintenance and replenishment of artillery shells. At least until the arrival of new supplementary artillery shells, it will not be able to participate in the battle for the time being. At the same time, after withdrawing to the Right Banner of Bahrain and then in the rear, these guard troops remain behind.
It won't be of much use. Instead of sitting idle, just be a favor to yourself.
Qiu Jintang's nod made Yang Jicai somewhat relieved. Although the artillery guard force was not large, except for the casualties on the front line of recovering Zhangjiayingzi, at least one company could still be made up. At present, for those who have insufficient troops,
For Yang Jicai, the strength of a company can also solve part of the difficulties. Not to mention the strength of a company, even a platoon or a squad, he will not refuse anyone who comes.
After issuing orders one after another, Yang Jicai did not stop at Sumoyintala. He took a radio and rushed directly to Balaqirud. He was not very relieved about Gou Zaihe over there. He did not take command personally.
He was very worried that this old man would do something treacherous for him again.
After arriving at the front line of Balaqirud, after listening to Gou Zaihe's report, Yang Jicai hesitated and took the guards to the nearest warning position to the Japanese position to carefully observe the enemy's situation. There was not much in his hands.
To make such an important decision as to carry out a full-scale counterattack with the strength of his troops, he could not just listen to the report. What he heard was false, and what he saw was truly true.
Yang Jicai crouched in a foxhole, holding a telescope and carefully observing the movements of the Japanese troops in front of him. He discovered that although most of what Gou Zaihe reported was true, there were still a few things that he might not have noticed.
, maybe he didn't realize that the analysis of the enemy's situation was not very accurate.
Yang Jicai still doesn't know whether the situation at Aohan Yingzi is the same as that facing Bala Qirude. But one thing is certain, Yang Jicai is sure that the Japanese army's actions in front of Bala Qirude are not a sign of being unable to advance or retreat.
.It’s just that different measures are taken in different units.
The Japanese army in front of them is obviously not of the same organization. Although the Japanese army has now changed to the 98-style military uniforms, most of the collar insignias as military service marks on the original Showa 5-style military uniforms have been cancelled. The original military service identification marks have been changed to those on the chest.
It has an inverted mountain shape, but the color of the original military service identification mark has not been changed.
As a combat staff officer, Yang Jicai is no stranger to the colors used to identify the types of Japanese troops. As long as he sees these colors, he can accurately determine the type of Japanese troops facing him. If he can't even do this most basic thing, he
Nor would he be held in such high regard by Guo Bingxun and Wang Guangyu.
So although this inverted mountain-shaped sign is not very eye-catching due to distance and size issues, Yang Jicai can still see the various branches of the Japanese army in front of him with the high-power telescope in his hand. And it is precisely from these that it is not obvious
Yang Jicai discovered some problems that Gou Zaihe did not report or was unaware of on the "Tiaoshan" sign.
The Japanese army in front of him was indeed refusing to retreat without fighting, but it was not as simple as he imagined. Judging from the military branch markings on his chest, Yang Jicai not only discovered that among the Japanese troops in front of him, there were red for infantry and yellow for artillery.
Brown for engineers, blue for baggage troops.
Even among the Japanese troops in front of him, Yang Jicai discovered the light green service identification mark used by the cavalry worn by the Japanese search unit. The Japanese troops in front of him were so diverse and even messy that Yang Jicai could clearly taste a different flavor.
