Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 486
In fact, not only Chi Shang Xianji was surprised by the artillery fire, but also Chu Yunfei.

At this time, Chu Yunfei had gathered his troops to the south of Yuncheng, and from his position he could see patches of flames and thick smoke rising from the west and east.

Chu Yunfei asked Fang Ligong beside him in surprise: "That is a rocket launcher? Why can't we use such power, but the Eighth Route Army can easily do it!"

It's no wonder that Chu Yunfei would ask such a question, what Li Yunlong sold him was a single-shot rocket launcher.

The rocket launcher is not very accurate and will fly randomly in the air. It would be better if the starting point is more concentrated... For example, 12 barrels are assembled together and fired at the same angle. After the rocket hits the destination, the scattering area will not be too large.

If the 12 gun barrels are all single-shot, and they are fired at different angles and heights in different places, the wind force they will receive after flying into the air is also different, so there will be "a difference of a thousand miles" and the scattering area after hitting the destination will be different. It's too big to imagine and it's not accurate.

Fang Ligong put down the binoculars and said thoughtfully: "Tuan Zuo, I think the Eighth Route Army probably kept a hand. The rocket launchers they kept are different from the rocket launchers they sold to us!"

Chu Yunfei nodded, he also thought of this just now.

This made him a little frustrated, but it wasn't because he was fooled by Li Yunlong.

Chu Yunfei thought to himself: If the Eighth Route Army can unleash such firepower in an instant, what if the Jinsui Army can monopolize Yuncheng?One day, when the Eighth Route Army got upset, they fired rockets at Yuncheng...

Chu Yunfei's 358th regiment is also equipped with rocket launchers. Of course, he knows that this equipment is not on the same plane as artillery and cannot be judged by its range.

Compared with artillery, the one with a range of 10 kilometers can usually defeat the enemy with a range of 6 kilometers, because it is more advantageous to fight farther, and you can use maneuvers to keep the opponent passively beaten.

But the rocket launcher will not play with you like this. It sneaks up and shoots the shells in one breath, leaving you with no chance to fight back.

At this time, Chu Yunfei suddenly understood why Li Yunlong was willing to sell Yuncheng to the Jinsui army one by one. He had suffered a big loss but thought he had taken advantage of it.

but……

Thinking about it, Chu Yunfei sighed secretly again, what other options does the Jinsui army have besides occupying Yuncheng?

Now it's just one step at a time.

Another surprise was Sun Ming.

He was the one who traded the Jinsui Army single-shot rockets before, and seeing such violent rockets smashing at the enemy's position, he couldn't help but look back curiously...

Then I saw several cars in the rear firing rockets "swish" in the direction of the enemy.

Sun Ming immediately understood that he had been cheated.

At this time, Sun Ming didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

Be happy, being cheated is certainly not something to be happy about.

Be angry, look at this from the perspective of the Eighth Route Army, you should not be angry but happy, otherwise the Jinsui army and even the stubborn army will know that rocket launchers can be used in this way, and they will turn around and deal with the Eighth Route Army.

But before Sun Ming had time to think about it, the charge horn had already sounded.

As soon as Sun Ming waved his hand, he led his subordinates and followed the tank troops in front to advance towards the enemy's position.

The sound of gunfire and explosions soon became one, and due to the suppression of the rockets, the devil's mortars and grenade launchers were instantly reduced.

But of course, it is impossible for the rocket launcher to clear these targets, and there are still many shells and grenades being thrown over.

But that doesn't do much.

The Eighth Route Army advances at an interval of 30 meters, which makes the positions of the following infantry relatively scattered. After shells and grenades hit the tanks, it is difficult for the soldiers to lie down in time to hurt people.

The biggest threat is actually the 92 infantry guns that the devils moved onto the city wall... The 92 infantry guns are small in size and light in weight, so they can be disassembled and moved onto the city walls. They can be used to attack the infantry behind the tanks from a high position, making it difficult for the infantry to provide fire reinforcement for the tanks. .

However, this problem was quickly resolved.

Following the infantry, they used rocket launchers to fire a few smoke bombs in the direction of the city wall in time, and soon spread smoke in front of the city wall, causing the 92 infantry guns to lose their target.

The most threatening thing is actually the devil artillery.

But until this time, the Devil Artillery still did not dare to fire easily.

This may be because the devils are afraid of the artillery fire of the Jinsui army, or they are waiting for the opportunity... waiting for the opportunity for the tanks to gather more due to the battle.

This is why Wang Xuexin requires tanks to be 30 meters apart from each other.

Such an interval can prevent a heavy artillery shell from killing and injuring too many tanks and followers.

This distance is slightly different for the armies of various countries on different occasions.

For example, devils fight in China, because the Chinese army does not have much artillery fire, even if there is artillery fire, they are usually suppressed by devils, so devils usually require tanks to be 30 paces apart...about 15 meters.

In the battle against Mao Xiong, Hans required a distance of 50 meters between tanks because of the fierce artillery fire of Mao Xiong.

The 30 meters requested by Wang Xuexin is an intermediate number... In the battle of attacking the bunker and there is thick smoke everywhere, the distance should not be too wide, otherwise the tanks will not be able to cover each other, but it will be too much.

At this time, Wang Xuexin's nerves were also tense, and he was worried that the devils would suddenly launch shelling regardless of their bunkers and gun towers.

However, Wang Xuexin estimates that this is unlikely to happen.

The reason comes from two aspects:
One is the deterrence of the opening rockets.

Although the Eighth Route Army had rejected the plan to use rockets to hit targets in the city because they were worried about hurting the people, the devils didn't know it, so the devils' artillery had to consider whether they would be covered and suppressed by a wave of rockets when they fired.

The second is the deterrence of the artillery of the Jinsui Army.

Although the artillery of the Jinsui Army had lost contact at this time...but the devils also didn't know this.

Li Yunlong was desperately calling the Jinsui Army artillery at the regiment headquarters, but there was no news from the Jinsui Army artillery unit as if it had disappeared. Li Yunlong was so angry that he cursed: "When will these sons of bitches be returned to me?" Destroy the stage! Didn’t you know that the people in Yuncheng are all devils who drove them out?”

Although Li Yunlong said that he was psychologically prepared for this, he still couldn't get angry at this time.

On the battlefield, under the cover of the soldiers, the tanks "rumbling" to the bunker, and then adjusted the barrels to "boom" at the bunker, blowing the target into ruins.

But there were still two tanks blown up by the devils, one was run over by an anti-tank mine, and the other was blown up by the devils carrying explosive packs.

Seeing this scene, Chi Shang Xianji's heart was half relieved.

According to this situation, it is almost impossible for the Eighth Route Army to capture Yuncheng within ten hours.

When it was dark after ten hours, the tanks were unable to attack because they did not have the ability to fight at night.

At that time, the Eighth Route Army would have to wait until it was surrounded by imperial reinforcements the next day.
