Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang nodded and said, "So that's how it is... Letting the cannon fire horizontally can indeed produce unexpected results."

The Eighth Route Army was relatively experienced in artillery fire.

Because the Eighth Route Army lacked heavy artillery, they had at most a few mortars, and it was difficult to blow up bunkers with mortars.

However, if the mortar is used to bomb the bunker in a flat manner, the effect will be much better.

Therefore, there were many capable people in the Eighth Route Army who modified the mortars to fire horizontally.

Chu Yunfei had no experience in this type of artillery firing, but when he heard Su Zheng's tactics, he was immediately amazed. His eyes lit up and he said, "Brother Su's tactical thinking is really unconventional. He can even think of a tactic like putting a bayonet on a cannon!"

Su Zheng said with a bitter face: "Brother Chu knows us Eighth Route Army... We are poor... There is nothing we can do. When we encounter difficulties, we can only think of more solutions!"

..... ...... 0

"There's a saying, there are always more solutions than problems!"

Chu Yunfei nodded and changed the subject: "But if the shells that were originally curved are fired horizontally, wouldn't that be very dangerous?"

Su Zheng: "That's right... the tactic of attaching bayonets to cannons is indeed very dangerous."

"If it is not operated properly, the gun may explode or fail to fire at any moment. The result is that not only the gun will be destroyed, but even the gunners may die heroically."

"But there's nothing we can do about it... Our equipment is relatively backward, and without direct-fire artillery, this is all we can do."

"Of course, another combat tactic to attach a bayonet to a cannon is to fire at close range!"

"Generally speaking, artillery positions are located behind infantry positions, conducting long-range artillery strikes."

"But in some cases, if conventional bombing and artillery bombardment are unable to blow up solid fortifications, then the only option is to push the artillery to a distance of several hundred meters or even closer to the enemy for direct bombing."

"In this case, the artillery is indeed very dangerous, because it is completely within the enemy's firepower range. At the same time, because the artillery fire is relatively close, if there is a large-scale explosion, the flying shrapnel or fine sand and gravel may accidentally injure our own people, so the danger is extremely great."

"But if the tactic of attaching bayonets to cannons works, then we can catch the Japanese off guard!"

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang both nodded, agreeing with Su Zheng's statement.

Although bayonets on cannons are fraught with danger.

But you still have to be there at the critical moment.

Li Yunlong looked at Su Zheng with great admiration and said, "Su Zheng, I think your tactic of attaching bayonets to cannons is quite good!"

"I have always felt that we anti-Japanese soldiers should be brave enough to draw our swords, not afraid of sacrifice, and not be cowardly when encountering the enemy. We must do everything we can to kill them!"

"Even if the person standing in front of us is the world's best swordsman, we must dare to show our swords and be brave enough to show our swords! We cannot lose our momentum!"

"It is dangerous to put bayonets on cannons, but it is more dangerous to not dare to draw the sword without fighting!"

Chapter 140 Everyone knows that you, Su Zheng, have made a fortune, but I didn't expect you to be so rich! (Fourth update, please subscribe)

Li Yunlong's sword-drawing remarks also made people excited.

Dare to draw the sword!

Be brave to draw your sword!

If you don't even dare to show your sword, how can you be a swordsman?

This is like encountering a powerful Japanese enemy and not daring to resist. Wouldn't that be cowardly?

Su Zheng said loudly: "Captain... you are right. We must be brave enough to draw our swords when facing the Japs who are stronger than us. We must not be cowardly!"

Chu Yunfei also got excited after hearing this and said, "Brother Yunlong said it well. Drawing the sword is a kind of momentum and determination. We must let the Japanese know how powerful we are!"

"Brother Su's bayonet tactics on the cannon are a good example of showing off your sword skills. Dare to fight and fight!"

Zhao Gang also nodded and said: "Yes, although the bayonet tactics on the cannon are full of dangers, it is also a helpless move in the case of a fierce battle!"

"So when using the bayonet tactics on the cannon, our artillery soldiers must have the courage to die together with the Japanese. Not every unit can have such a spirit of daring to die."

"Now that the independent battalion has come up with such a dangerous but effective tactic, it shows that the artillery of the independent battalion is ready to die together with the Japanese. This kind of momentum, courage and dedication is what Zhao Gang admires very much!"

Zhao Gang's words hit the nail on the head.

The reason why Su Zhengzhi explained the tactics of using bayonets on cannons in front of Chu Yunfei, an outsider, was that he was not afraid that Chu Yunfei would learn from him secretly.

Chu Yunfei is a man.

But the same cannot be said for the soldiers in Chu Yunfei’s 358th Regiment’s artillery battalion.

The bayonet tactics on the cannon are completely inconsistent with their artillery usage standards and procedures, and are also full of dangers, so they certainly don't dare to do so.

But the artillery of the independent battalion dares, that's the difference.

Li Yunlong stroked the Type 0 infantry gun, and then saw a large number of mortars and grenade launchers placed on the ground.

These light artillery pieces may look simple, but at critical moments, they are capable of delivering powerful artillery fire.

Looking at these mortars, Li Yunlong suddenly said with deep emotion: "Great... It's really great... I didn't expect that our New 1st Regiment would have so many mortars and grenade launchers!!"

"We had a hard time in the past. We only had one mortar and we treated it like a treasure. Now we have so many mortars. It's really unimaginable!"

“Su Zheng, you really made a fortune!”

Su Zheng: "Captain, the last battle of Lijiapo was so smooth, thanks to the artillery company's precise bombing and artillery cover."

"So next I will find a way to continue to expand the artillery capabilities of our independent battalion!"

Li Yunlong nodded and said, "Yes... This idea is correct. On the battlefield, it's all about who has more guns, cannons and people!"

"Develop your artillery company as quickly as possible. Then let me see your artillery company's firepower bombard the Japanese, and let the Japanese experience the feeling of being suppressed by artillery!"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Okay... Don't worry, Captain, I will accomplish this goal as soon as possible."

"Zhihua, come here!"

The rapid improvement of artillery strength is related to the artillery god Yang Zhihua.

Because the artillery god Yang Zhihua had conducted professional and systematic training for artillery, the results obtained were naturally different.

After hearing Su Zheng's call, Yang Zhihua ran over and said, "Captain, are you looking for me?"

Su Zheng looked at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang and said, "Zhihua, let me introduce you. This is our new regiment leader, Li Yunlong!"

"This is Zhao Gang, the chief member of our New 1st Regiment. He is my immediate superior."

"Captain, this is our artillery company commander Yang Zhihua!"

Yang Zhihua quickly put his legs together, saluted and shouted, "Hello, Commander, hello!"

Su Zheng introduced, "Captain, Yang Zhihua is a graduate of the regular artillery department of the Military Academy. He is really accurate in firing cannons!"

"Our group's Wang Chengzhu is no match for him. He's quite amazing!"

Currently, Yang Zhihua is rated as a four-star talent by the system.

He is also the only four-star talent in Su Zheng's independent camp.

In fact, Su Zheng didn’t know why the system rated Yang Zhihua’s talent level so high.

Is it because Yang Zhihua is the god of artillery?

However, since the system has made such an assessment, there must be a reason for it.

Yang Zhihua said modestly: "I just stayed in the Military Academy for a few days."

An artilleryman like Yang Zhihua who is so talented in firing artillery, coupled with the training and guidance from the Military Academy, must have achieved great accomplishments in firing artillery.

Li Yunlong grinned and said, "Hahaha... Captain Yang, since Su Zheng introduced you like this, you must have extraordinary skills. Why don't you show us some?"

Uh...do you have to show off all your skills?

Yang Zhihua looked at Su Zheng, seeking Su Zheng's opinion.

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Since our team leader wants to see you show off your skills, then show off your skills!"

It is not easy to carry out accurate artillery bombardment.

Yang Zhihua held his head high and replied, "Yes!"

Afterwards, everyone came to the artillery training ground.

This time, Yang Zhihua used a Type 92 light mortar.

Yang Zhihua looked at a tree in the distance and said, "Commander, member of the committee, battalion commander, and Commander Chu, I'm going to show off my ugliness!"

"Do you see that tree? That's the tree I'm going to bomb this time. A targeted bombing strike!"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Let's get started!"

Yang Zhihua fixed the mortar skillfully, then raised his thumb to gesture, and then quickly adjusted the firing angle of the mortar.

After everything is ready.

He picked up the shell and put it directly into the mortar barrel.

thump...

After the mortar shell enters the mortar through the smooth bore, it is ejected quickly!

swish swish...  

The mortar shell drew an arc in the air and then landed accurately on the top of the tree.

Boom...bong...

There was an explosion and the tree was blown down instantly.

Accurate hit!

Laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.

Although Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Chu Yunfei and others are all professional artillerymen, they also know that it is very difficult to use a mortar to shoot so accurately. Without rich artillery experience, knowledge and ability, it is impossible to fire such a shot.

clap clap clap...

Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei, Zhao Gang and others all applauded and cheered.

Zhao Gang: "Captain Yang is amazing for being able to launch such a precise artillery attack!"

The happiest person was none other than Li Yunlong. He clapped his hands and cheered, "Hahaha... Good fight, beautiful!"

Chu Yunfei also said in amazement: "Brother Su's independent camp is really full of talents, crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and it really opened my eyes!"

Now Chu Yunfei has some understanding of why the battle of Lijiapo was able to achieve such a good result. ...

It is really the result of joint cooperation from many aspects.

The main reason is that the independent battalion is well-equipped, has a large number of talented people and strong combat effectiveness!

After seeing the power of the artillery company, Su Zheng and his group quickly arrived at the cavalry company's training ground.

Drive, drive, drive......

At this time, Sun Desheng was training cavalry.

Since the last Battle of Baishigang, the cavalry company has expanded significantly.

Since many of the cavalry were new recruits, Sun Desheng naturally had to seize the time to train them.

Seeing the cavalrymen in training, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up again and he said, "Su Zheng, your cavalry company is much larger than a cavalry battalion, with strong soldiers and powerful horses."

Su Zheng: "My current cavalry company has about 600 people, which is indeed more than the number of a battalion."

Li Yunlong grinned and said, "Su Zheng, you are really amazing... Do you know that our brigade commander only has one cavalry company, but you have a cavalry battalion!"

"Everyone knows that you have become rich, but I didn't expect you to become a local rich man! You are so rich, even richer than a local rich man."

"If the brigade commander saw that you had a cavalry battalion of troopers, he would probably rob you!"

"He starts by saying that a higher-ranking official can crush a lower-ranking official, and you have no choice but to submit!"

One thing brings down another thing.

Li Yunlong can be said to be fearless, except for the brigade commander.

I guess only the brigade commander can control Li Yunlong.

The brigade commander also robbed Li Yunlong many times.

Su Zheng also smiled and said, "If you want equipment, you don't have it... but if you want life, you have it."

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Su Zheng, I find that your personality and mine are really becoming more and more alike, hahaha!"
