my bright sword career

Chapter 303 Hasty Evacuation
Boom boom boom... boom boom boom..."

I have to say that the M2 Browning heavy machine gun is indeed an excellent suppressive weapon. When it is replaced with armor-piercing bullets, the armor below [-]mm can't stop it at all. Soon, a Type [-] led by the Japanese army The tank was immediately pierced by armor-piercing bullets, and the whole tank trembled for a while like a patient suffering from malaria. Never move again.

After the leading chariot was destroyed, the surrounding Japanese chariots immediately found the machine gun that dared to provoke them, and soon countless machine gun bullets and shells came over, and amidst the roar of the cannon, the machine gun that was still pouring out The flaming heavy machine gun was submerged in a sea of ​​flames...

"Big man..."

Not far away... Seeing that the M2 heavy machine gun that was still firing was submerged by the Japanese artillery fire, Leihuo let out a loud roar, and his eyes were tearing apart. If he hadn't been replaced by a big man just now, the person who is now submerged by the artillery fire That's him.

He rolled back several times in a row, came to the communication soldier hiding behind the hillside, snatched the microphone on the radio behind him, and said loudly: "Zuoshandiao...Zuoshandiao...I am the second battalion First company commander Lei Xianghe, we encountered the devil tank unit and needed artillery support, repeat, we encountered artillery support and needed artillery support!"

There was a rustling sound from the microphone, "This is a mountain sculpture, please report the target's location."

In the Liantai militia, if you want to become a company commander, learning the eye jump distance measurement method is a compulsory course.

After hearing the words, Lei Huo took a deep breath, stretched out his right thumb between his eyes, closed his left eye, and pointed his right eye at the direction of the Japanese tank ahead through the side of his thumb, keeping his head and hands still. Close your right eye again, make your left eye look through the same side of your thumb, and remember that the line of sight is aimed at the middle of the Japanese army in front of you. After silently calculating, you shouted to the microphone: "Zuoshandiao...Zuoshan Eagle, I'm Lei Xianghe, shooting mission... Coordinate guidance, 2354 3568, repeat, coordinate 2354 3568, all unit grenades, three groups, instant letter bombing at the same time, get ready to report!"

Soon, the voice just now came from the microphone: "Lei Xianghe... I'm a mountain eagle, ready to fire and shoot at the same time!"

"Fire!"

Anyone who is knowledgeable knows that the first group of shells is the most powerful, and the first salvo is the "efficiency shot".

It is often possible to catch unprepared enemies for maximum effectiveness, but also for maximum effectiveness while using the minimum amount of ammo.In this case, the simultaneous bombing tactic came into being. The so-called simultaneous bombing is to concentrate all the artillery fire, regardless of the caliber, the artillery of each unit is aimed at the center of the designated target area.The shooting distance may vary, and the firing time may vary, but it is adjusted so that all bullets reach the target area at the same time. Depending on the number of bullets, the difference may be only a few seconds.

This method of firing does not carry out "test firing" and the first shell fired by each artillery commanded is "efficiency fire".

Although this approach will reduce the shooting accuracy of each artillery, it just avoids the problem of excessive concentration of falling bullets when all artillery shoots at a single coordinate; because of the error when each artillery fires.Just enough to form a whole barrage around the target coordinates.

"woo woo woo woo……"

"Boom...boom..."

Soon the first round of twelve 155 howitzer shells pierced the air and fell, and the sudden artillery fire immediately enveloped the Japanese tanks and infantry who were caught off guard and still concentrated on Liao Kai and the others. In the flames of death.

Because the artillery fire came too suddenly, even if the Japanese tanks wanted to evacuate, it was too late...

"Boom... boom boom boom..."

The dense explosions continued like thunder, and the Japanese position in front was shrouded in a sea of ​​​​death flames.

Military fans of later generations once had a guess, can a 155mm howitzer directly destroy a tank after directly hitting it?

Later, some real people did a test. They pulled a decommissioned German Leopard 2 heavy tank as a target, and then bombarded it with a 155mm howitzer.

The consequences of the bombardment were also stunned. The 55-ton Leopard 2 tank was directly hit by a 155mm grenade and disintegrated on the spot, turning into parts.

Zuoshandiao is the nickname of the No. 40 Pao Battalion. The M43.1 self-propelled artillery they are equipped with has a weight of [-] kilograms. Once such a shell explodes, let alone a direct hit, just exploding near the Type [-] tank will enough to cause fatal damage.

Under the witness of Leihuo and more than 100 soldiers of the first company who were fighting fiercely with the Japanese army, through the cloud of explosion smoke, it was clearly seen that many Type [-] chariots were blasted into the sky by the huge waves of the explosion, and the turrets were even accompanied by the explosion. It was so tragic on the battlefield shrouded in black smoke clouds after being blown away for more than ten meters.

The sharp and fiery shrapnel wantonly harvested the lives of Japanese soldiers. Dozens of Type [-] tanks that were on the offensive suffered almost devastating shelling almost at the moment when the shelling arrived.

"All unit grenades, move the position forward 50 meters, three groups... instantaneous fuze, bombing at the same time, ready to report!"

Just when the Japanese army was stunned by this group of sudden attacks, the instructions for the second round of shelling were transmitted to the ears of Zhuang Mancai, the commander of the first battalion behind, by wireless telegram.

The blow this time was to give the last round of blows to those Japanese infantry who survived on the ground or in the crater.

Faced with the shells constantly falling from above their heads, all the surviving Japanese soldiers could do was lie on the ground, letting countless fiery shrapnel scatter past their heads, bouncing and kissing everything The objects that blocked them from scattering, the shells falling in the sky were as dense as raindrops, and the ground was beating like drums.

The raging flames licked the air, and the heat wave was rolling, and the midsummer air seemed to be on fire, making people desperate.The Japanese army's position has been ravaged beyond recognition. The Japanese army's broken gun fragments and stumped limbs mixed with fragments of mud were thrown into the air. The entire battlefield was blown up in just a few seconds. Large and small steel shrapnel whizzed the dance of death, the corpse that was blown into the sky was torn into fragments of stumps and arms, and then the flying stumps and arms were torn into blood and flesh by the next round of artillery fire, and finally with The gunpowder smoke fell into the black soil that had been thoroughly plowed.

After several rounds of intensive air-burst bombs came, the Japanese soldiers who had escaped the shelling and lay in the crater or lying on the ground were torn into pieces by the shell fragments dropped from the air before they even had time to react.The explosion in the air blasted out black smoke clouds in the air, leaving countless corpses on the ground. When the fragments hit the chariot, the echo echoed on the battlefield like a bell, which could not disappear for a long time.

The Type [-] chariot that survived the first round of shelling also suffered a nightmare blow. The steel fragments flew from the air to the ground, easily tore the thin armor of the chariot, and collided with the high-rotating metal shrapnel. The chariots behind were all emitting black smoke, and some chariots even had their ammunition detonated, and the entire chariot was blown to pieces by several shells that exploded at the same time.

"Fuck his grandma!"

Leihu, who was lying behind the hillside, opened his mouth wide when he saw the scene in front of him. Like all the soldiers in the company, he was stunned by this scene. If the counterattack of dozens of Japanese tanks was shocking, then this A few short rounds of bombardment were simply an invitation from Lord Hades, and there was no other ending except death.

"Company commander... the shelling stopped." After an unknown amount of time, Lu Xianping's voice rang in Leihuo's ear. "What should we do now?"

"What to do, of course continue to charge, stay here for dinner?" Leihuo glared at Lu Xianping, and shouted not far away: "First platoon leader, lead your platoon to take down the devil's position!"

"understand!"

A platoon leader not far away didn't talk nonsense, and waved his hand: "Brothers, follow along!"

Different from the violent counterattack by the Japanese army just now, this charge can be said to be extremely smooth. After the shelling, the entire Japanese army's position was completely deserted. , Not long after, the entire position was occupied by a company.

After occupying this position, Lei Huo was surprised to find that it was indeed a command post of the Japanese army, but the Japanese army inside had long since disappeared, leaving only discarded items and some documents that were too late to be destroyed.

"Damn it, we're late."

Looking at the empty semi-underground command post, Lei Hu put his hands on his hips and cursed.

In fact, neither Lei Huo nor Gao Hongming knew that it was none other than the brigade commander of the Ninth Brigade, Major General Shigeyasu Suzuki, who fled from this command post more than ten minutes ago. Regiment headquarters.

When he was just attacked, Suzuki Shigeyasu did not panic, because the garrison of the guard brigade headquarters had an infantry squadron. Not only that, there was also a chariot brigade not far from the headquarters. Kang's greatest confidence.

After judging that the opponent was a small force that had entered by mistake, Suzuki Shigeyasu ordered the garrison squadron to repel it, but the development of the subsequent battle was beyond his expectation. The opponent's firepower was not only fierce, but also the opponent's reinforcements were pouring in Keep coming.

At this time, Shigeyasu Suzuki, who was a little nervous at the beginning, immediately dispatched his biggest hole card, the chariot brigade.

But what he didn't expect was that the chariot brigade, which he had placed high hopes on, was bombarded head-on and face-to-face by the opponent's heavy artillery. In just seven or eight minutes, the chariot brigade was completely lost.

Only then did Suzuki Shigeyasu realize that if he didn't leave, he might never be able to leave again, so he ordered a hasty evacuation...
