Anti-Japanese War: The whole world is a base vehicle

Chapter 37: A squadron was gone in an instant!
If Wang Lingyun knew there was a word called Versailles, he would probably retort.

But for now I can only roll my eyes.

Only 20 105mm howitzers?
Do you know what this means?
You know, the German-equipped division only has one artillery battalion.

"Captain Lu, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to mobilize the artillery battalion." Wang Lingyun took a deep breath and looked at Lu Yuhua politely.

Although they are just a garrison regiment.

But they have more than 3,000 people and are equipped with an artillery battalion.

Just based on this strength, he cannot underestimate others, no matter what he says, he is always polite.

Hearing this, Lu Yuhua did not refuse and spoke to Liu Er beside him.

"Go, get the artillery battalion into position immediately."

"I'll have to trouble you, sir, to provide the coordinates."

"It would be best if our artillery commander and command team could enter the frontline position so that they can provide the latest coordinates at any time."

Whether in modern times or present times, artillery requires coordinates before firing.

Normally when two armies are facing each other, the artillery observation posts will move together with the front-line troops to provide coordinates to the artillery at any time.

But Lu Yuhua's troops were ordered to provide support, so the coordinates needed to be provided by friendly forces.

"No problem." Wang Lingyun naturally agreed to Lu Yuhua's request.

Upon receiving the order, the artillery battalion immediately unloaded the 105mm howitzer from the back of the carriage.

Fortunately, we used Yunnan horses, which have great endurance. Otherwise, an ordinary war horse would be exhausted to death after pulling this thing.

Even so, hundreds of war horses were exhausted.

Although he is only a junior artilleryman, his military qualities are different and he is not at all slow or sluggish.

In less than half an hour, the artillery position was set up and the shells to be fired were unloaded from the carriages.

Twenty 105MM howitzers, a full twenty tons of shells.

According to Lu Yuhua, he had no tactics, only bombs.

Just one word: fuck it.

At the Shankouxu position, Wang Feng, commander of the 76th Brigade of the 227th Division, looked at the densely packed Japanese troops in front of him and felt anxious. He knew that the position could not be held.

Right now we can only hold on for a little longer.

"Tell the brothers to cheer up. The Japanese are also born by our parents. They are no different from us. Don't be afraid." Wang Feng ordered.

"Yes."

Just then, the communications staff ran in hurriedly and said to Wang Feng.

"Brigade Commander, the division commander has sent reinforcements."

When he heard about the reinforcements, Wang Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.

He had been coveting the German-equipped battalion in Wang Lingyun's hands for a long time.

I heard before that a company was dispatched to support the 226th Brigade, but it was completely wiped out in Sichai Village.

He didn't expect that another company would be transferred out, which made him a little excited.

As a result, the scene before him disappointed him greatly.

"Where are the reinforcements?" Wang Feng asked dissatisfiedly as he looked at the staff officer coming down from the division headquarters.

"They are them." Li Ye said, pointing at the people behind him.

"What can they do with just a few people? They're not even enough to stop the Japanese from charging one round." Wang Feng had a look of disgust on his face. What can just a few people do?

Although the military uniform the other party was wearing looked a bit strange, I felt like I had seen it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember where it was for the moment.

But it’s not very useful. What can just a few people do?

"They are artillerymen, and they have 20 105MM howitzers in the rear." Li Ye said unhappily.

"What?" Wang Feng was completely stunned.

What the hell?
20 105mm howitzers?
When did the Master become so generous?

"Are you kidding me?" Wang Feng asked quickly.

"My dear Brigade Commander Wang, do you think I am someone who would joke with you? If it weren't for the order from the division commander, I would still be in the division headquarters. Okay, don't ask me anymore. Just wait and see what they arrange." Li Ye was too lazy to waste words with him, and began to observe the actions of the people in front of him.

Sun Qi picked up the artillery telescope, formerly known as the scissors-shaped telescope. It is a periscope binocular optical instrument, mainly used for artillery battlefield observation, terrain reconnaissance, target search, determination of explosion point deviation, and determination of the coordinates of artillery positions and observation posts.

As the artillery commander, Sun Qi naturally led the command team behind him to the front line.

Based on his observations, he kept recording the coordinates on the blueprint. "Do you have the coordinates of the position in Sicai Village?" Sun Qi turned around and asked.

"Yes, these are the coordinates we marked." Li Ye quickly handed over the coordinates in his hand.

After taking a look at the sketch, Sun Qi couldn't help but shake his head. It wasn't professional at all.

But it is understandable. After all, the opponent is not a serious artilleryman, and it is not easy to draw it like this.

After getting the approximate location, Sun Qi wrote it down on the drawing and immediately picked up the phone that had been answered long ago.

"Command, coordinates XXX, azimuth 27-00, firing angle 06-80! - three rounds of rapid fire."

"Yes." The gunner on the other end of the phone responded.

The Japanese troops who were charging had no idea that the shells were about to fall on their heads.

The Japanese army did not come to their senses until the explosion was heard.

"boom!"

The first shell landed in front of the Shankouxu position.

Due to the wind speed, it did not hit the target.

But the shock wave still blew away more than a dozen Japanese soldiers.

"Evacuate quickly, evacuate quickly! This is heavy artillery, evacuate quickly!" In front of the Yamaguchixu position, Captain Nobuya Terada, the squad leader of the 1st Squadron of the 2nd Guards Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Army, raised his head and looked at the bomb crater in front of him with a confused look on his face.

But then a sharper voice sounded again, and he immediately came to his senses and shouted to the subordinates in front of him.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

He could even clearly see the terrified faces of his subordinates.

boom!
boom!
boom!
The Japanese army's attack route was completely covered by artillery shells.

The rising dust covered the entire Shankouxu position.

"Baga, why are there heavy artillery?" Major General Sakurada Takeshi in the rear was completely stunned.

According to the tradition of the Japanese army, artillery with a caliber of 105mm or above can be called heavy artillery.

According to his judgment, this was a shell fired by a 105mm howitzer.

When did the Chinese army have heavy artillery?

And there are so many?

Judging from the falling shells, there were at least more than ten guns, or even more.

"German-equipped division? 105mm howitzers?"

"How is this possible?" Major General Sakurada Takeshi felt like he was going crazy.

Why does the Chinese army still have heavy artillery?

Didn’t the German-equipped division disappear long ago?
Why are you here now?

"Order, correct the coordinates, the coordinates remain unchanged, azimuth 27-10, firing angle 07-85! Ten rounds in a salvo." At the Shankouxu position, Sun Qi took the artillery telescope, observed for a while, and picked up the phone again to give the order.

"Yes."

Soon, there was even more intense artillery fire than before.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Dozens of artillery shells completely covered the direction of the Japanese army's advance.

After the artillery fire stopped, only a few soldiers were left in the original infantry squadron.

Those who were lucky enough to survive looked around with an aggressive look on their faces.

She kept shouting "Mamma Mia".

Major General Sakurada Takeshi went from shock to numbness, and then to shock again.

"This is at least more than ten heavy artillery pieces?"

"No, there should be twenty."

"Do they really have so many heavy artillery?"

"This is impossible."
