The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Beside the lotus pond, two huge steel monsters erected long cannon barrels, pointing in the direction of Shunyi.

The shape of this behemoth transformed with German naval guns has not changed much. It is still the original 14-ton heavy gun barrel. Flexible slide-rail mechanically assisted loader.When the transportation is moving forward, this part of the heavy metal mechanism is separated from the gun body, ensuring that the chassis of the cannon does not exceed the limit of the railway's load-bearing limit. Reload and fire at 5 rounds speed!

The shell weighing 300 kilograms is as tall as a person, and the slender body looks like an invisible evil spirit. The rear launcher replaces the expensive German-made copper shell charging device, and directly uses a larger naval gun The general-purpose silk medicine bag was pushed in, the overall stability, aiming, "Boom!" There was a loud bang, shaking the ground around a kilometer around, and the lotus pond not far away even splashed ripples!

The roar of the cannon without the muzzle flame arresting device at all was like thunder in the dry sky, shaking the heads of the people around them to buzz and explode. Even wearing ear protectors, they couldn't bear the huge impact. The air more than ten meters away was distorted, and a layer of smoke and dust on the ground spread in all directions like waves!

The flames ejected from the muzzle were about ten meters long, a billowing air wave rose into the sky, and the huge shells whizzed out at a high speed of 910 meters per second. More than half a minute later, the sun that had been detected in Shunyi The army's heavy artillery fell near the position.

The high-explosive bomb with a charge of more than 100 kilograms penetrated the ground more than four meters deep.In the next moment, the violent explosion formed a whirlwind that swept everything. With the landing point as the center, it swept across the surroundings in an umbrella shape. The hot air driven by the high-speed shock wave overturned all the existences within a radius of 150 meters. Houses, trees, Heavy cannons and trucks, and even chunks of huge stone rollers, all flew with the wind like cotton balls!

The cannons that were shot precisely at fixed points were spread out no more than 50 meters, and they directly hit the heavy artillery positions arranged by the Japanese army, blowing up two 150 field cannons on the spot, and the forty or fifty soldiers and artillery nearby had a chance nothing.It was torn to pieces on the spot, turned into blood mist, mixed into dozens of tons of broken buildings, and scattered more than a hundred meters away!

Gu Hisao screamed like a duck whose neck was trampled, the sound was not only unpleasant, it was harsh!

In such a place, a heavy artillery of this caliber appeared, and the ambition and arrogance of the opponent can be imagined!This is enough to show that their goal is not just to resist the attack, they even have full preparations for war, they just need to wait for the empire to launch, and then come up with such inhumane means to attack suddenly.Get caught off guard!

Things are serious!

Gu Hisao suddenly calmed down, stopped shouting hysterically, grabbed the phone and ordered to the heavy artillery unit: "All move back immediately, get close to the densely populated areas of China, or enter the concealment of the county town, and temporarily stop supporting the front line !"

He's sure.The other party would never dare to easily fire at civilian areas on their own land. In that case, the huge casualties caused would definitely make the other party's commander lose his head. They must be a little more scrupulous, and this.It is a good opportunity for his troops to escape for the time being!

Undoubtedly, Hisao Tani's order was very timely, and his reading was very accurate, but it was not so quick to act! It's not easy to move the bulky body of the 89-type field cannon, and they are attacking them from a distance.It's not just a cannon either!

Less than a minute after the first loud noise, the second shell roared after a brief correction, and it was more accurate than the landing point just now. It almost directly hit the center of the three cannon positions, and the roaring flames set off The big pit with a diameter of four to five meters blew up the three ancestral halls that were covered by it on the spot. Stones of all sizes flew like cannonballs at an extremely fast speed, smashing the surrounding trees and houses to pieces.A whole squad of Japanese troops hiding inside, together with a large number of shells, turned into fly ash!

As if the horn of attack was sounded, the two giant cannons each started a relay race at a rate of 3 rounds per minute. The explosion of "Beng Beng Beng" was like waves constantly rippling from the railway, and the suburbs of Shunyi Within a five-kilometer radius, the entire heavy artillery brigade had no chance of escape, and was completely wiped out by this horrific firepower!

The frightening thing is that under such an explosion, there is no temporary fortification that can stop it, not even a reinforced concrete building like a tortoise shell, or a thick city wall!Compared with the 240mm siege guns of the Japanese army, it is several times more powerful. It is powerful enough to penetrate a 340mm armor plate thickness and can almost sweep away everything on land. Come for a devastating blow!

Gu Hisao's distressed liver was about to bleed! The Japanese army is not that rich, not to mention the cost of a heavy artillery brigade as high as hundreds of thousands of dollars, plus the rare technical artillery, auxiliary vehicles, and ammunition, this fellow has been reimbursed millions of dollars at once!It's just abominable and shameful to sacrifice for nothing without even playing a fighting role!

But now it's useless for him to be distressed. This is how war is. Whoever can seize the opportunity will have a greater chance of winning. Whoever makes their investigation work is not in place? How many cards does the opponent have? I can't figure it out!

Gu Hisao learned from the painful experience, and once again ordered another heavy artillery brigade to step back and retreat as far as it can!According to the observation report of the intelligence personnel in Beiping City, the opponent's super cannon is probably not far from the west of the city, only [-] kilometers away from the front line, and it is far from displaying its maximum range.

Hisao Tani, who is very familiar with German gunfire, can roughly guess that this kind of guy may be the culprit who sank four "Kaohsiung-class" heavy cruisers at Guzhenkou, but he was able to hit nearly four Ten kilometers of monsters!The Germans themselves have secretly developed the army train guns of relevant calibers, and the other party cooperates so well with the German military, it is impossible that there is no related development, this time it is definitely a failure!

Staring bitterly at Beiping, who was crawling like a giant beast on the Qianli Plain in the distance, Tani Hisao gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Let you be rampant for a while, the revenge of the empire will come soon, wait, wait!"

He knew very well that Song Zheyuan's 29th Army did not have the courage and ability to launch a counterattack. At best, they huddled in the fortifications and lingered in the fortifications when they were not attacked. Then the initiative was in the hands of the empire. As long as they killed the opponent's heavy artillery, they could make a comeback!

Not only the heavy artillery unit, but other artillery units are also hastily shifting and concealing. Hisao Tani knows that if the opponent does not run away, half of the artillery position will be gone as soon as the opponent's shell falls, and this is an absolutely irresistible powerful force A combat weapon, unless it is blown up directly, there is absolutely no possibility of blocking it.

But the attack will never stop just because of their transfer. The two train guns that have just heated up the gun barrels are under the action of the automatic recoil mechanism, and the slight shooting deviation is not corrected. They just fire dozens of shells in one go. It wasn't until the entire area of ​​the target position that there was almost nothing whole in sight, that they readjusted their direction, aimed at the Japanese infantry attack formations in the direction of Tong County and Ming Tombs, and opened fire violently!

"Booming" sounded like the sound of a train running at high speed in the sky, and people inside and outside Beiping couldn't help but look up. This movement was really terrifying, and it had never been heard before!Immediately afterwards, on the frontal position in Tongxian County, the attacking troops of the Niu Dao Man Brigade took a sap on the head. In the middle of their attacking road, shells suddenly exploded a huge column of fireworks hundreds of meters high , The loud noise like a thunderbolt was really numb to the ears two miles away. For a while, half of the Japanese soldiers on the battlefield were lying on the ground like quails, looking around with wide-eyed eyes in horror. This, what is this!

In the direction of the Ming Tombs, the 10th Division's attack was in full swing, when it was suddenly hit by a huge shell that fell from the sky, and almost had a diarrhea collapse on the spot!Is it reasonable that such a behemoth that can only exist on a naval battleship actually appeared on a land battle battlefield?Is it fair?its not right!

A dozen or so huge artillery shells blasted out a shocking mushroom cloud, one by one the hilltops were razed to the ground by the explosion, and large expanses of fireworks enveloped the rear half of the Japanese attacking troops, and the sky was dark in an instant!

Hisao Tani's warning has been sent as quickly as possible, but Rensuke Isoya, the head of the 10th Division, can't believe it. The enemy's heavy artillery is located in the west of Beiping City, which is at least 40 kilometers away from here, which is beyond the reach of the enemy. The strike range, how could they hit the shells so far!Did the shells have wings? !

The cannonball doesn't have wings, but it can emit smoke from the bottom of its buttocks!

Hisao Tani and Rensuke Isotani never imagined that these terrifying guys not only have conventional shells, but also have a secret rocket-extended range bomb on the side with the world's strongest rocket technology!

On the basis of the original launch capability of the 280mm naval gun made in Germany, the launch charge is improved and the chamber pressure is increased, which not only increases the launch range to more than 40 kilometers, but also can even reach 50 kilometers after using the latest rocket range-extending ammunition. !Even if it is launched on the outskirts of Beiping, it can easily reach the northern hills of the Ming Tombs, and even directly reach Huairou!If it weren't for the fear of bombing civilians and causing huge casualties, the train guns deployed to their heart's content would have exerted even more ferocious attack power!

Even if they were conservative as much as possible, the Japanese army still couldn't bear it. The earth-shattering explosion far exceeded the soldiers' tolerance limit. With the danger of being wiped out, rush to the west of Beiping, if you don't kill those giant cannons, this battle will be difficult to fight!To be continued. .
