Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1225 Massacre
The armored train is used to suppress the devil's infantry artillery.

Wang Xuexin had considered this issue from the very beginning. Because the Kwantung Army of the Devil's two brigades "passed through" Datong, it is impossible to have too much heavy equipment.

But the infantry artillery is the standard configuration at the brigade level, and it can be disassembled and transported. If the Kwantung Army did not have this thing, it would be impossible.

The Eighth Route Army's train defense line is not afraid of anything else... There are sandbags and bursting rifles. In order to prevent the chassis from being empty, soldiers get out of the train and hide under the train. Let alone more than 1000 devils, as long as the ammunition is sufficient, it will be difficult for tens of thousands of devils to break through this line of defense.

But such a line of defense is afraid of the devil's mountain artillery.

The range of the mountain cannon is 2.7 kilometers, which is far beyond the range of the light equipment of the Eighth Route Army. The devils can deploy it far away... In fact, there is no need to deploy it far away, because the mountain cannon has a shield on the front, and the machine guns and rifles in the hands of the Eighth Route Army. It is difficult for gadgets to pose a threat to it, and mortars can deal with it, but to fight mortars means getting out of the car.

The situation of the Eighth Route Army is obviously not suitable for getting out of the car to defend.

Because the train of the Eighth Route Army is inserted between the North City Wall and the Beida Camp along the railway line: that is, to the north is a small group of Japanese military police plus two companies of puppet troops, and to the south are two brigades of devils. under the attack state.

A mortar shooter would have exposed his back to the enemy no matter which side he was on if he had positioned himself outside the train.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Dabiao did not order his troops to get out of the car and rush into the North Camp to fight the devils at close range. Their task was to block the devil's Kwantung Army from reinforcing the North City Wall, so that the main force could successfully attack from the North City Wall. enter.

How to solve the problem of Guizishan Cannon?
Armored trains are the way to go!

The reason why the armored train didn't show up before is to let the devils feel at ease to push the mountain cannon up...the closer the distance is, the better it will be to destroy it.Otherwise, the scouts of the reconnaissance company are the ones who control the artillery of the armored train. Although they have also learned how to control the artillery, they are all half-way monks and non-professional standards, and they will miss when they are far away.

It’s all right now, the distance between each other is only more than 100 meters, and a thing as big as a mountain cannon can be clearly seen in the open playground, even if there is thick smoke from incendiary bombs everywhere.

The two 105MM cannons were the first to attack...they had loaded their ammunition early in the morning, made full preparations, and even adjusted their angles. At this time, after discovering the Guizishan cannon, they only needed to adjust the muzzle slightly, and then opened fire with two "booms" one after another. The target fires two shells.

The reason why we say "slightly adjust" the muzzle is because the cannon of this caliber does not need to be too accurate. Although this kind of gun can be fired very accurately at a distance of more than 100 meters, the definite killing radius of its shells is more than [-] meters. ...That is to say, after a bombardment, there was almost no living thing within a range of more than [-] meters around the bombing point, whether it was killed by the bomb, shrapnel or shock.

If we talk about the indirect killing range, it will be farther, and the shrapnel is still powerful when it is fired hundreds of meters away.

So, does this gun need to be accurate?
As long as you aim roughly, it's almost the same!
Just like now, even though a shot did not directly hit the devil's mountain cannon, a cloud of smoke rose from the target, taking the infantry cannon, the gunner, and the surrounding devils into the sky, and the infantry cannon's wheels flew away before it fell off. It came over and hit the train with a "snap" sound and then fell to pieces.

Then it was time for the 75MM anti-aircraft guns to show off their power.

Although the 75MM anti-aircraft gun is not as powerful as the 105MM caliber cannon... In fact, the 105MM caliber cannon can also be called an anti-aircraft gun. The devil infantry is not very satisfied with the accuracy and range of this gun, so it stopped production after only dozens of them were produced. installed, only a small amount is used on armored trains.

Later, the devils changed this cannon into anti-aircraft guns... Anti-aircraft guns do not require so much accuracy. Anyway, they hit the shells in pieces into the air and rely on shrapnel to try their luck to injure the enemy plane.

That is, this kind of anti-aircraft gun was used in large numbers on Iwo Jima, which caused Yingjiang's fighters to pay a heavy price.

The advantage of the 75MM anti-aircraft gun is that it has a fast rate of fire, and it can be said that there is no pressure to penetrate the shield of the Guizishan Cannon.

In fact, it not only penetrated, but a few shells knocked over the mountain cannon. The devil hit by it was directly cut into two pieces. What's more frightening is that the devil's upper body was still waving his hands on the ground, struggling and shouting He even climbed on the ground with all his might, leaving a long trail of blood behind him...

It's almost like the ancient torture of beheading in half.

The reason why it can be called torture is that the organs below the waist are not the vital points for short-term fatality. They perfectly avoid the heart, lungs and other organs, and they can survive for a long time after being severed. with great pain.

The devil deserved this kind of torture before he died, and the soldiers only felt happy when they watched this scene.

Soon, the five mountain cannons pushed up by the devils were wiped out.

Then the devils were surprised to find that apart from these mountain cannons, they didn't have any equipment that could deal with the Eighth Route Army's train defense line in front of them.

machine gun?

It may be able to shoot at the enemy, but the enemy is hiding behind sandbags inside the train, and the probability of the machine gun bullet hitting the enemy is very small.

Thrower?
This is what devils are best at.

But if the grenade is not a special bomb but a grenade, it is even difficult to detonate on the train... The grenade is a delayed fuze. After it hits the round roof of the train, it will roll to the sides of the train and explode. This kind of explosion basically poses no threat to the Eighth Route Army in the car.

Not to mention the armored train, the 10MM armor can withstand the blows of all the devil's light weapons, it can be said that it is like a king.

But the devil still yelled at the train and rushed up, densely packed like ants, the devil hoped to throw grenades at close range... and only this could pose a threat to the Eighth Route Army, such as throwing grenades into the train, which is very harmful to the train This kind of confined space can blow up a large piece.

However, the Eighth Route Army in the train is equipped with continuous-fire rifles, and a train with more than [-] people in a battalion can be worth more than three times the bolt-type rifles.

And there are only more than 1000 devils in front of them, and the Eighth Route Army has done enough protection to shoot comfortably in the fortifications. This kind of action of the devils can almost be said to be a suicide charge.

Therefore, the ensuing battle was simply a one-sided massacre. Rows of devils fell under the bullets fired by the Eighth Route Army, and another row rushed up. After the fight, the corpses could be piled up in front of the train to form a trench.

At this time, the charge sounded outside the city... The main force of the independent regiment arrived.
