Bright Sword: I have a system for exchanging points for killing enemies

Chapter 370 Hurry up, turn on the searchlight and point out the target to the Eighth Route Army!
When Qin Yangming and Li Yunlong received the telegram from the artillery battalion of the Pioneer Regiment saying that Xing Zhiguo requested to mobilize the transport team of the artillery battalion of the Pioneer Regiment, neither of them objected and directly replied to the telegram.

Xing Zhiguo agreed to mobilize part of the transport team of the artillery battalion of the vanguard regiment to meet Zhao Gang.

After everything is ready.

Xing Zhiguo took the lead in arranging the second battalion of the independent regiment to lead the independent regiment's artillery battalion to the Dongzhang River Bridge stronghold, preparing to cooperate with Li Yunlong to launch an attack on the stronghold set up by the Japanese at the Dongzhang River Bridge.

The third battalion of the independent regiment was left behind by Xing Zhiguo to protect the safety of the artillery battalion of the vanguard regiment.

"Zhu Zi, I'm leaving the artillery battalion to you to command. Remember, blow up the artillery tower and bunker on the north side of the Dongzhang River Bridge first!

According to the information from Political Commissar Zhao, the Japanese troops themselves were all hiding in the artillery towers and bunkers in the north, and those in the south were all those idiots.

Those idiots have contacted the local comrades in Fu'an County and promised that if we attack their stronghold, they are willing to surrender directly.

Therefore, we should give priority to blowing up the Japanese artillery towers in the north. It would be best if we could destroy all of the Japanese artillery towers and bunkers in the north with one wave of attack.

Ergouzi in the stronghold spread the news that the Japanese had buried explosives under the Dongzhang River Bridge, and the detonator of the explosives was in the hands of the Japanese in the north.

If we can't quickly get rid of the Japanese in the north.

The Japanese might blow up the bridge!"

After Xing Zhiguo led his troops to the stronghold built by the Japanese at the Dongzhang River Bridge, he decisively called Wang Chengzhu, the battalion commander of the independent regiment's artillery battalion.

Xing Zhiguo pointed at the Japanese stronghold where the headlights had already been turned on due to the dim light and instructed Wang Chengzhu.

Wang Chengzhu was asked to kill all the Japanese soldiers located north of the Dongzhang River Bridge as soon as the first wave of attack began.

At least we have to blow up all the artillery towers, bunkers and other things to prevent the Japanese from blowing up the Dongzhang River Bridge as much as possible.

Listening to the order given by Xing Zhiguo, Wang Chengzhu nodded decisively without any hesitation.

"Deputy Commander, don't worry. If I fail to blow up all the Japanese artillery towers and strongholds in the north in the first round of attack, you can chop off my head!"

The order issued by Xing Zhiguo was not difficult at all for Wang Chengzhu.

Not to mention that the eight mountain cannons of the independent regiment's artillery battalion could blow up several of the Japanese's artillery towers and bunkers at one time.

The shells fired by the independent regiment's twenty-four 82mm mortars, which were equipped to each battalion and the regiment's direct command, were enough to cover the entire Japanese stronghold.

If so many artillery pieces and sufficient supply of shells cannot blow up the Japanese stronghold in the first round of attack, there is no need for Wang Chengzhu to be the commander of the artillery battalion of the independent regiment anymore. He should just find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

After all, the stronghold built by the Japanese at the Dongzhang River Bridge was not very large, only about half the size of a football field.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get ready quickly. How long will it take to prepare the artillery equipment?
The regiment commander has already led the first battalion to block the Japs' retreat, and is waiting for us to fire and blow up the Japs' artillery towers and bunkers, and then launch an attack on the Japs."

Listening to Wang Chengzhu's words, Xing Zhiguo glanced at the telegram in his hand that Li Yunlong had just sent, saying that he had led a battalion to cut off the Japanese's retreat and asked Xing Zhiguo to speed up the attack on the Japanese's stronghold.

Xing Zhiguo urged Wang Chengzhu.

"Twenty minutes, give me twenty minutes, and make sure the position is built!"

Wang Chengzhu thought for a moment and immediately gave a time.

Hearing the time given by Wang Chengzhu, Xing Zhiguo frowned and spoke with some dissatisfaction.

"Twenty minutes? The Vanguard Regiment's artillery battalion only needs ten minutes to build a position. If time is tight, they can build a position that can be used for a short period of time in five minutes. Twenty minutes... can it be shortened?"

Although Xing Zhiguo knew that it took Wang Chengzhu 20 minutes to build the artillery position, which was already very fast, but thinking of the speed of the artillery battalion of the vanguard regiment, Xing Zhiguo still asked to see if it could be faster.

Listening to Xing Zhiguo's words, Wang Chengzhu shook his head.

"Deputy Captain, twenty minutes is the fastest we can do.

Mountain cannon is not a mortar. The gun mount of a mountain cannon must be pressed down with sandbags and inserted into the soil.

The soil also needs to be compacted.

Only in this way can the cannon be stabilized and the recoil will not cause the cannon to move when firing, so that it can continue to fire. Otherwise, it will have to be readjusted after each shot... which will take more time. "

Wang Chengzhu thought about the speed and methods of the Vanguard Regiment's artillery battalion in building its positions, and spoke to Xing Zhiguo with a wry smile.

“Deputy Commander, the Pioneer Regiment’s artillery battalion was able to build its artillery positions quickly because they skipped the step of compacting the soil.

After they have positioned the cannons, they will directly fire the shells, using the recoil to compact the soil under the cannons.

The speed is fast, but the prerequisite is that some shells will be wasted.

Moreover, when the Vanguard Regiment is building its position, if the ground is uneven, the Vanguard Regiment will directly use blasting to flatten the protruding areas.

Or just fill the sandbags directly.

Moreover, these are the methods that the Vanguard Regiment Artillery Battalion will use in emergency situations. Under normal circumstances, it will take the Vanguard Regiment Artillery Battalion more than ten minutes to deploy its position.

But the soldiers in the artillery battalion of the vanguard regiment are all big and strong, and they are naturally faster than us.

Moreover, the vanguard regiment was equipped with a large number of artillery pieces, and it was fully capable of using some of the artillery pieces for direct fire and some of the artillery pieces for indirect fire from the rear positions.

In addition, the battalion commander of the artillery battalion of the pioneer regiment, Li Erhu, has very strong skills.

Captain Li was able to calculate the coordinates quickly, and as long as it was not the extreme distance, Captain Li could shoot without conducting a test shot.

But I can't do that, I have to calculate, and it takes me several minutes to figure out the target's position.

This time we had to blow up all the artillery towers and bunkers in the Japanese stronghold during the first wave of shelling.

So each gun must be assigned a corresponding target.

Twenty minutes was the maximum time it took to go back and forth, and even then, it was only possible because of the help of soldiers from the Second Battalion who helped to level the position.

If it were all up to our artillery battalion, it would take at least half an hour to get all the work done.

Then you can fire.”

Wang Chengzhu also wanted to speed up the attack on the Japanese stronghold, but the situation of the independent regiment's artillery battalion was like this.

The number of people is not as large as that of the Vanguard Regiment Artillery Battalion, and the soldiers' skills are not as good as those of the Vanguard Regiment Artillery Battalion.

After all, the artillerymen in the Vanguard Regiment's artillery battalion are able to get a lot of live-fire shooting opportunities.

Every now and then, you can fire one or two live rounds to familiarize yourself with the performance of the cannon.

But their independent regiment's artillery battalion is not as arrogant as the vanguard regiment.

The only way to train is to use the method invented by Qin Yangming, which is to use guns instead of cannons.

Only occasionally could a Type 92 infantry gun training shell be fired to allow the soldiers to practice their techniques.

After listening to Wang Chengzhu's words, Xing Zhiguo nodded to indicate that he understood, and then spoke to Wang Chengzhu.

"Okay, I understand, go down and get ready.

Speed ​​up as much as possible." "Yes!"

After receiving the order, Wang Chengzhu turned around quickly and returned to the selected artillery position soon. He began to lead the soldiers to speed up the construction of the artillery position.

After arranging the engineers to help build the position, Wang Chengzhu climbed up to the high ground with his artillery telescope and began to observe the Japanese stronghold in the distance.

Thanks to the dark sky, the lights in the artillery towers and other buildings in the Japanese stronghold were on, so it was much easier for Wang Chengzhu to observe.

With the help of the searchlight on the top of the Japanese artillery tower, Wang Chengzhu easily found the approximate locations of the artillery towers and bunkers in the Japanese stronghold.

After Wang Chengzhu calculated the coordinates, he quickly returned to the position and began to assign targets to everyone according to the coordinates he calculated.

"Remember this, the commander has given the order, in the first round of bombardment you have to blow up all the Japanese's artillery towers and bunkers!

First blow up the Japanese artillery towers and bunkers in the north.

The deputy regiment commander said that the people in the artillery towers and bunkers in the south were all traitors, and those traitors had agreed to surrender.

Fire towards the north first. If those traitors in the south don't raise the white flag after you fire, immediately fire at the south artillery tower and blow it up.

In addition, half of the mortars were aimed at the Japanese positions to the north. After the mountain artillery opened fire, the mortars immediately provided fire coverage.

We must not let the Japanese appear alive on the battlefield, and try our best to prevent them from blowing up the bridge!
Do you understand? ! "

After Wang Chengzhu conveyed the mission, he asked loudly to the gunners.

"understand!"

The gunners responded one after another.

"Well, everyone take your positions!"

Seeing that everyone understood, Wang Chengzhu immediately walked behind his own mountain cannon and personally aimed the cannon at a gun tower to the north of the Japanese stronghold.

"Reload!"

"Yes!"

After adjusting the artillery, Wang Chengzhu immediately called on the loader behind him to load the shells.

The loader behind Wang Chengzhu listened to Wang Chengzhu's order and quickly stuffed a shell into the barrel. The assistant gunner next to him quickly closed the breech block and prepared to fire.

After the assistant gunner was ready to fire, he quickly stood up and patted the helmet on Wang Chengzhu's head, reminding Wang Chengzhu that the artillery was ready to fire.

After being reminded, Wang Chengzhu pulled the gun rope back with his right hand.

As Wang Chengzhu pulled the gun rope, the firing device connected to the gun rope was activated.

The firing pin strikes the percussion cap at the bottom of the artillery cartridge, directly detonating the primer.

"Tom!"

Along with a dull sound from the artillery, the 75mm mountain gun barrel also vibrated.

A 75mm mountain artillery shell quickly rushed out of the barrel and flew towards its target.

The gun barrel quickly retreats under the recoil of the shell, and then resets again under the action of the gun's hydraulic mechanism.

"Hit it, hit the target!"

Wang Chengzhu waved to the loader behind him to continue reloading, and then while the loader was reloading, he looked up at the observer standing high up.

The observer held up a telescope and watched the shell successfully fall into the Japanese stronghold. After one shot blew a big hole in the artillery tower in the Japanese stronghold, the observer immediately told Wang Chengzhu about the situation.

See the target hit.

Wang Chengzhu gave the order immediately.

"All mountain artillery, three rounds of rapid fire!

Free Fire! "

"Yes!"

Under the commands of Wang Chengzhu using some made-up local passwords, the other mountain artillery quickly pulled the gun ropes and began to fire at the targets they were aiming at.

One artillery shell after another flew out quickly from the position of the independent regiment's artillery battalion and headed straight for the Japanese stronghold in the distance.

……

"boom!"

"God bless us, God bless us, please don't let the Eighth Route Army's shells fall on our artillery tower!"

The one-eyed man looked through the shooting hole and saw that the Japanese artillery tower on the north bank was turned into ruins by three artillery shells from the Eighth Route Army. He was so scared that he lay down in the artillery tower on his side and began to pray.

Pray that the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells will not fall on the artillery tower on this side.

The one-eyed man had seen how a big hole was blown in the Japanese artillery tower by the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells, and then the entire artillery tower collapsed, and was directly turned into ruins by the subsequent artillery shells.

The Japanese's artillery towers could not withstand the Eighth Route Army's artillery, let alone his artillery towers.

The one-eyed man felt that he didn't even need to go over to observe. When the first shell of the Eighth Route Army hit the Japanese artillery tower, that shell basically blew away all the Japanese inside the tower.

Old Liu, who was listening to the one-eyed man's prayers and the continuous sound of artillery explosions on the opposite bank, was now covered in cold sweat.

The one-eyed dragon was worried that the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells would fall on the artillery tower on his side. How could he not be worried too?

If the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells fell on their artillery tower, they would all die.

Even though the Eighth Route Army did not target them, they were still afraid.

After all, no one can predict what a stray bullet will be.

Because just now a mortar shell of the Eighth Route Army had landed on the position outside their artillery tower, which meant that all their brothers were hiding in the artillery tower or bunker.

Otherwise, who knows how many of their brothers would have been killed by that stray bullet just now.

"Quick, hurry up and go to the artillery tower and turn on the searchlight. Turn on the searchlight and shine it on the Japanese artillery tower!

Come on, some people!

Tell the Eighth Route Army that the enemy's artillery tower is opposite us. Let's not make mistakes and don't let the shells hit us!"

Old Huang, who just came over, was relatively calm, thinking that the sky outside was very dark and the light was not good.

The artillery of the Eighth Route Army might have misjudged the position and pointed the muzzles at them, so they quickly found someone to turn on the searchlight on the top of the artillery tower and aim it at the Japanese artillery tower on the north bank.

To illuminate the target for the Eighth Route Army's artillery to prevent them from firing artillery shells at them.
