Chapter 312
Thank you for your concern. In fact, I have tried to use voice input before, but I am an otaku who is not good at words. One is that Mandarin is not standard, and the other is that it is difficult to substitute when speaking, so voice input cannot be considered.

I tried the codeword standing up today, and it feels pretty good. Next, I will try to update it stably.

It's no wonder that Chu Yunfei said that the artillery of the Eighth Route Army was more effective than theirs.

Let's put aside the cost, working hours, maintenance and other factors of the artillery... Chu Yunfei still doesn't know the information and data of the rocket launcher at this time, so naturally there is no way to compare them.

From the perspective of actual combat alone, the value of rocket launchers is far greater than that of artillery.

This is not to say that artillery will be eliminated by rocket launchers, but that in this specific situation where there is no air supremacy and the artillery of the enemy and the enemy are out of proportion, the rational use of rocket launchers will be more effective.

For example, at this time, the artillery battalion of the Jin army was not a guerrilla tactic that could not use rocket launchers.

The Jinzao 18-year artillery may weigh more than 1000 kilograms. ,
However, Jinzao also has a 13-year-old mountain cannon, which has a range of up to 7000 meters. It has high shooting accuracy and is easy to disassemble. It only needs two mules and horses for traction. After disassembly, it can be carried by 6 horses or 13 soldiers. No problem at all to maneuver quickly on the car.

The problem is that……

If you use the 13-year-style 75mm artillery to fight guerrillas, how many guns are needed to have the output of three rocket launchers?

The three rocket launchers have a total of 36 launch tubes, that is, 36 guns are required to achieve a considerable effect.

It is not impossible to find 36 guns. The 13-year-old Jinzao artillery has a large output and a lot of equipment. It is not difficult for Chu Yunfei, the 358th regiment.

More importantly, a series of questions follow:

Do 36 guns need to be towed by 36 cars?
36 vehicles are towing 36 guns, how big an artillery position is needed to deploy?

With such a large artillery position, how can it be covered with smoke to prevent enemy aircraft from discovering it?
With so many cars and artillery, how wide a road is needed to evacuate quickly without being blocked by enemy aircraft bombing?

All of these are unsolvable.

But multiple rocket launchers can solve this problem very well... Three rocket launchers are carried by three vehicles, and at most one or two ammunition vehicles will be added to follow them. The entire army has no more than five vehicles.

Smaller and easier to hide.

Fast to evacuate quickly.

There are fewer vehicles and less congestion.

The instantaneous output firepower of the gun barrel is similar to that of 36 artillery pieces...

That's why the rocket launcher can "change a place with one shot" and become a guerrilla artifact, and even the Devils can't do anything with it.

Anda 23 originally wanted to attack, but immediately received a warning from the aviation unit: "We can't find the target and destroy it. If we continue to attack, we may be hit by the enemy's new artillery!"

Just when Adachi 23 was hesitating, Neiji Okamura sent an order: "Stop the attack!"

So Anda 23 had no choice but to withdraw the troops back.

It turned out that Okamura Ningci also received news of the discovery of a new type of artillery from the Eighth Route Army.

The news was reported directly to Neiji Okamura by the Army Air Corps... Neiji Okamura hoped to get first-hand information on the battlefield in a timely manner. He believed that only in this way could he grasp the situation on the battlefield more completely and in a timely manner and command operations.

In fact, this is because many generals of the imperial army "report the good news but not the bad news". Out of selfishness, they usually choose not to report when the battle situation is in a disadvantageous state, and they do not report how they defeated the enemy until the battle situation reverses.

This is not the case with intelligence from the aviation.

When he saw the information, the calm and calm Neiji Okamura also twitched the muscles on his face uncontrollably.

Shinozuka Yoshio sighed from the side: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, what you worried about happened. The Eighth Route Army has developed a new type of weapon. This time it is a cannon, and it is probably also modified from a 'jet bomb'. !"

Neiji Okamura's expression was very complicated.

He didn't expect that the weapon that the Empire had been researching ten years ago and was considered to have no future could play such a big role after being captured by the Eighth Route Army. It has now developed into a new type of weapon that cannot be effectively suppressed by aircraft or artillery.

Moreover, all these equipment appeared successively in such a short period of time.

Are the weapons experts of the Eighth Route Army so terrifying?

After hesitating for a long time, Neiji Okamura ordered: "Stop attacking!"

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General!" Shinozuka Yoshida became a little anxious when he heard this order: "Is that the case? If the Eighth Route Army is given time to breathe, they are likely to fill in the weak defense of the flank!"

"No!" Ningji Okamura shook his head, and replied: "Mr. Xiaozuka, the Eighth Route Army takes action and cooperates with the Jin Army's defense. Even if we can successfully enter the Jin Army's defense area and circle around the Eighth Route Army's flank, what do you think will happen?"

Shinozuka Yoshio suddenly realized, and replied: "Your Excellency Lieutenant General, you mean that the Jin Army and the Eighth Route Army will fight against our army together?"

Neiji Okamura nodded slightly, which was the last thing he wanted to see.

Before, he thought that the Eighth Route Army had no possibility of assisting the Jin army.

It is unrealistic to send troops directly for reinforcements. The two armies were at odds with each other, and the Jin army is still laying down a blockade on the border.

Remote reinforcements with artillery?The artillery of the Eighth Route Army is pitifully small, and the furthest is only more than two kilometers, so what effect can it have!
Therefore, when the empire attacked the Jin army, the Eighth Route Army could only helplessly wait and see.

When the Eighth Route Army was attacked, the Jin army stabbed secretly, and when the Jin army was attacked, the Eighth Route Army sat idly by. Only in this way could the conflict between them be deepened, so that the imperial army could defeat them one by one.

but now……

However, at this critical moment, the Eighth Route Army produced a new type of artillery with a range of nearly six kilometers to reinforce the Jin army. The situation was different.

Continuing to fight, the imperial army may achieve a partial victory, but it is helping the two armies to unite in a unified front, and the imperial army is the "outside".

Neiji Okamura considered issues more from a strategic level, and he would not do such thankless stupid things.

However, Shinozuka Yoshio was still a little unwilling, he hesitated and asked Neiji Okamura: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, if this is the case..."

Yoshio Shinozuka didn't continue, but Neiji Okamura understood what he meant.

If you can't fight now, does that mean you can't fight in the future?

If you can't fight in the future, can you only attack from the front?

Neiji Okamura was silent for a while, and replied: "It is very likely that... Chongqing is the breakthrough point!"

After being reminded by Neiji Okamura, Shinozuka Yoshida understood in an instant.

Chongqing's army was at odds with both the Jin Army and the Eighth Route Army, and both of the empire's strategic goals were in Chongqing's interests:

In terms of attacking the Jin army, the Chongqing army had long wanted to eat up the warlord who was clinging on to Shanxi, but because the situation did not allow it, they could only adopt a soft policy.

Not to mention the detour to attack the Eighth Route Army, which is what the Chongqing army could only wish for.

As a result, Okamura Ningji's offensive slowed down, and the situation would undergo new changes.

And this change is likely to be beneficial to the imperial army.
