Rebirth of the Military Industry Power of the Anti-Japanese War
Chapter 19 Heartless Cannon
Wen Yingxing, the head of the Tax Police Corps who became the commander of Yongfeng County's urban defense, also agreed with this. Although the Tax Police Corps has Song Ziwen, the God of Wealth, behind it, China is too poor. It is better to save as much as possible. He estimates that the enemy
It may be that they are preparing to advance the mortars to the front to bombard the National Army positions. Then the National Army can wait for them to fire and quickly determine the location of their mortars and destroy them. This capability is currently only available in China where major military officers have overseas backgrounds.
, Wen Yingxing is a top student of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and possesses the tax police corps. The enemy's ignorance will surely destroy their few artillery. Wen Yingxing can't help but feel sad when he thinks of this, "Not only are the weapons and equipment in China inferior, but the tactical concepts are also inferior to those in the West.
It’s been decades behind!”
As for why the enemy's trenches were so close, Wen Yingxing thought that it was probably because the enemy's artillery skills were not good enough, so they could only take risks to close the distance to improve the hit rate. With this idea, the national army tentatively launched a charge at the front, but was blocked by the Red Army's machine guns.
Nothing changed after the defeat, although Wen Yingxing's evaluation of the enemy commander had greatly improved, "The opponent's tactical literacy is very high, whether it is the crossfire of machine guns or the rapid movement after repelling the enemy, it is a pity that the artillery skills
But it cannot be improved immediately by changing the commander. It has to be fed by hundreds or thousands of artillery shells. It is a helpless move for him to let the artillery take the risk of approaching such a forward position?"
That night, the Independent Division suddenly launched a surprise attack on the national army's forward positions. Fortunately, the tax police regiment was well-trained, and Wen Yingxing sent reinforcements in time. The night attack was finally repelled. Both sides lost hundreds of people.
It is undoubtedly a loss for the tax police corps, which has better soldiers and equipment, but this is the characteristic of night raids. In a night battle, the gap in strength between the two sides will be greatly narrowed, because many people died of manslaughter on their own side.
In order to prevent the enemy from repeating the same tactics, Wen Yingxing had to send an additional battalion to the front line and asked them to be on strict alert. However, he did not expect that his order would cost the lives of hundreds of people in vain...
The next day, as soon as the sky turned a little white, Wen Yingxing, who had not slept well all night, suddenly heard a series of dull "thunders" outside the city. In the eyes of the national officers and soldiers on the front line, they saw many things appearing in the sky.
Many unknown objects were flying, rolling, and whistling, drawing terrifying trajectories in the air, and then they fell densely and crashed into their positions...
In just a few seconds, the Nationalist army's position turned into a hell on earth. Even if the Nationalist officers and soldiers who were ordered to hold on were not directly killed, most of them had their internal organs shattered by the strong shock wave, or were simply scared to death.
Madman. Gao Zhicheng is one of the few lucky ones. He was lucky enough to save a life because of his relatively remote location. But when the earth stopped shaking, he already looked as scary as a demon from hell, with a cracked brow bone and missing teeth.
He lost his hearing, his vision became blurred, blood oozed from his mouth and nose, and his military uniform was as tattered as a beggar's uniform. He climbed out of the crater with difficulty, and his legs felt weak as soon as he took a step.
, I felt dizzy and nauseated, and my whole body was shaking, so I had to kneel on the ground and vomited...
The positions of the National Army outside the city were completely destroyed almost instantly. The trenches were filled with corpses. Most of them had no blood on their appearance. They were obviously killed by the shock wave. The ground was in a mess, and the plowed soil was mixed with broken bones.
Wood chips and broken military uniforms were even mixed with unexploded explosives...
The independent division's artillery bombardment did not end. After destroying the national army's forward positions, Hu Weidong decisively ordered the artillery fire to extend forward. Although this round of bombardment was much less dense, it was equally powerful. Wen Yingxing rushed out of the door.
His eyes widened in horror, and he screamed almost hysterically, "This is at least a 120mm caliber heavy artillery. How could the bandits have such equipment?"...
The national army in the city completely collapsed. The "bandits" who had originally thought they were poorly equipped and could only rely on human sea tactics actually had such terrifying firepower. This had a huge psychological impact (Note 1) on them, even more than it had on them.
Physical injuries, and those national troops who witnessed the destructive power of the Independent Division's "heavy artillery" were like zombies. They watched helplessly as the soldiers of the Independent Division rushed into the city like a tide, but they did not even have the consciousness to resist.
lost......
Wen Yingxing saw that the elite soldiers and generals he was proud of were beaten to a pulp in one fell swoop. For a moment, all thoughts were lost. But before he died, he wanted to see who the enemy soldiers were and how could there be such fierce artillery fire? Could it be that in
After Zhang Zuolin in the past, China has another bandit who likes to play with firepower? Unfortunately, he did not get this opportunity, because he raised his hand a little slowly, and was thought by a young soldier who had just joined the army to be stubborn, and shot him dead.
He was killed. Almost ten minutes later, the county party headquarters was surrounded by officers and soldiers of the Independent Division. The great executioner Kang Ze committed suicide in the basement in despair. Naturally, his ideal of transforming China through extreme methods could only be ruined.
....
Where did the Independent Division get its heavy artillery? What left such terrifying memories for the National Army were actually two new weapons produced by the Independent Division's arsenal. Their technical content was not high, but they received an astonishing response when used for the first time.
The effect, to a large extent, makes up for the independent division's offensive firepower (mortar fire cannot destroy the enemy's trenches, and direct direct fire can only bully those old-style troops who do not know "circular fortifications". Otherwise, no matter how accurate the artillery is, it will
The artillery can kill at most two or three enemies. With the current ammunition reserve of the independent division, it cannot afford to consume it.) This shortcoming...
At first, the independent division fired the "flying thunder cannon" invented by an ordinary soldier during the historical liberation war, commonly known as the "heartless cannon". It used a gasoline barrel buried in the soil as the barrel (in fact, when it was fired,
The huge chamber pressure is the soil layer instead of the gasoline barrel), and uses the power of the gunpowder explosion to throw the explosive package to kill the enemy. Due to the caliber, the "heartless gun" is very powerful, even more than the 150mm caliber heavy grenade, but
Its range is only two to three hundred meters (the explosive package fired by the "standard" "heartless gun" weighs 20 kilograms, has a range of 250-270 meters, and a radius error of about 10 meters.), so when an independent division needs to extend its artillery fire,
When the time comes, you have to use the second type of killer weapon - "super-caliber mortar shells"...
Note 1: The effects of being mentally prepared and not being mentally prepared are completely different. The Songhu Anti-Japanese War National Army was bombarded by n heavy Japanese artillery for so long without collapsing. During the Battle of Jinzhou, there were only two 240mm Japanese guns in the four fields.
With a blast from the heavy howitzer, the defenders who had been struggling to hold on immediately collapsed. Of course, underestimating the intensity of the enemy's firepower and excessive array density, which led to a large increase in casualties, were also important factors...
