My Bright Sword Logistics Career

Chapter 153
"There were losses in the first wave of bombing?"

"The guerrillas used a lot of new machine guns?"

North Review, Naozaburo Okabe, who commanded remotely, soon knew about the loss of the blaster.

"Hi!"

"In the first wave of five bombers, one crashed and two were slightly injured."

The staff immediately replied:

"According to the detailed battle report of the aviation wing, in Stone Bay, the guerrillas deployed a large number of new small-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns, the number reached two hundred, and the rate of fire was extremely fast, forming a dense anti-aircraft firepower network. The first bomber Got hit and crashed."

"Fortunately, the Mauser pointed bullets are still used, which are not powerful enough. As long as you deal with them carefully, the threat is extremely low."

"Small-caliber anti-aircraft machine gun?!"

Naozaburo Okabe nodded suddenly, and looked at the detailed battle report.

"General, I recommend a moratorium on bombing."

The chief of staff on the side said:
"Since the guerrillas deployed a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns in Shitou Bay, there is little point in continuing the bombing."

"Dropping bombs at high altitudes, the accuracy is low."

"In order to destroy Stone Bay, it is not cost-effective to lose a large number of fighter jets. We can completely rely on ground troops to solve the problem."

With the full support of the base camp, the mobilization of troops and materials went smoothly. According to the plan, in mid-November, the Hattori brigade will be able to launch an attack on Yangcun and the independent regiment stationed there.

"Do not."

After reading the report in his hand, Jisaburo Okabe revealed a smile:

"We want to continue the bombing, and we need to increase the intensity, increase the number of bombing waves, and expand the bombing range to include the entire Yangcun in the bombing range."

"Increase the bombing intensity! Increase the bombing waves! Increase the bombing range!"

The chief of staff was taken aback, very puzzled:

"Your Excellency, why is this?"

Although this time there is support from the base camp, and there are sufficient supplies, especially the air force, which is comparable to the [-]th army, but it is not consumed like this.Moreover, Yangcun also lacked bombing targets.

You can't blow up those fortifications that stretch for tens of kilometers.

"Look at it."

Naozaburo Okabe handed over the report of the captain of the first wave of blasters to the chief of staff.

After receiving the report, the chief of staff looked at it, and immediately raised his eyebrows:
"This group of guerrillas don't understand air defense at all!"

In the era of propellers, air defense consisted of gun barrels piled up continuously and the density of projectiles increased continuously. However, World War II was the pinnacle of the propeller era, and the speed of aircraft continued to increase. Air defense also developed correspondingly, extending meticulous air defense tactics.

Even for fixed-point air defense, the arrangement of firepower is also a technology, and a special air defense commander must be equipped to form a net with all the firepower to catch the enemy planes in the net, or keep the enemy planes out of the net, and protect the target from being attacked. bombing.

In the view of the Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army, the air defense forces deployed by the guerrillas in the Shitouwan area are completely laymen.

It was a group of machine gunners, unorganized and irregular, holding machine guns and shooting at the sky, not like an organized army, but a group of stragglers.

Although there were a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns, as many as [-], most of them were fired outside the range, or did not calculate the advance, just wasting bullets in vain.

If it wasn't for the carelessness of the first bomber, it would not be hit even if it descended to a height of 300 meters.

As for the two fighters with minor injuries, they can continue to fly with a skin patch, and it doesn't cost many yen, which is not as good as the price of an 11-year light machine gun.

In the Stone Bay area, the two hundred machine guns had wasted at least hundreds of thousands of bullets during the nearly one-hour air defense operation.

Whether it's worn bullets or damaged barrels, the price is probably as high as that of an airplane.

In this battle, the locust army is not at a loss.

but,

This group of stragglers still completed the task and defended the sky of Stone Bay, but the waste was too serious.

"It seems that the Stone Bay area is very important to the guerrillas!"

The devil's chief of staff touched his chin and smiled.

It can be seen from the Stone Bay area that the guerrillas did not understand air defense at all, but invested heavily in air defense. They deployed [-] new machine guns and consumed a lot of ammunition.

So··
The locust army can use intensive air operations to consume the bullets of the ambush guerrillas stationed in Yangcun.

You don't even need to drop a bomb, just put on an attacking dive to lure guerrilla air defenses into firing and wasting their bullets.

What the locust army consumes is only fuel and a small amount of aircraft accessories.

Although fuel and aircraft accessories are also very expensive, the North China Front Army is backed by an empire, and the guerrillas can only rely on foreign material assistance, how much ammunition can they consume?
"Your Excellency, your plan is good!"

The devil's chief of staff patted Naozaburo Okabe's flattery.

···
"Damn it."

"Only one fight!"

After the devil plane left, Luo Youzhi cursed loudly.

The regiment headquarters expected that the devils would come to bomb Stone Bay, and specially sent him to deploy here to be responsible for the air defense of Stone Bay.

After receiving the report from the frontline reconnaissance station that five planes had arrived, he was full of ambition and thinking about it.

It is definitely unrealistic to shoot down all five Devil planes.

Although this time they are equipped with a new general-purpose machine gun with a fast rate of fire, as well as anti-air sights and tripods, the power of the bullets is still flawed. Although the general-purpose machine gun has a range of 500 meters to the ground, it is actually effective against the air. The distance is only 300 meters.

Although it is still lethal at a height of 500 meters, the power is much smaller, and the trajectory is very erratic, making it extremely difficult to hit.

Although the total number of machine gunners in the machine gun battalion has reached more than 1000, there are very few skilled machine gunners. It's a recruit.

And he's still a recruit who hasn't been trained much.

But it shouldn't be a problem to take down three, or two.

The new machine gun can fire 1 rounds of ammunition in one minute!
But contrary to Luo Youzhi's expectations, only one Devil plane was shot down in the end, and this one was due to the Devil's carelessness, and it gave him a chance when it flew below 300 meters. He couldn't even knock out a hair.

"The head of the regiment doesn't even order good soldiers."

Luo Youzhi sighed:

"This air defense is really not simple!"

Although there are many objective reasons, such as the fact that the machine gun battalion is full of new recruits and lacks a professional range finder, Luo Youzhi also felt that he did not command properly and did not know enough about air defense. Shooting down the plane caused the companies and platoons to fight on their own, the firepower layout was unreasonable, and the failure to form a firepower network was also the key reason.

simply put,
The machine gun battalion was led by the devils, and they would shoot at the devil's plane no matter how it flew. It was a bit more visual, like a group of people gathered to chase a duck behind.

There is no problem on the ground, just chase the devils and shoot.

But air defense is not good. Shooting in the air, Mauser pointed projectiles have erratic ballistics, and they fly randomly at a distance of 300 meters. However, the aircraft has a long distance and high speed, so it is necessary to calculate the amount in advance.

And, division of labor and cooperation.

Someone needs to be chasing from behind, someone to deploy in front, and someone to double-team on the flanks, forcing the Devil's plane to hit the bullet net.

Of course, there is another way,
If you change to an anti-aircraft weapon with a larger caliber and a longer range, then you don't need any command, and everyone just sticks the trigger on the circle sight and pulls the trigger.

For example, the 12.7 caliber heavy machine guns abroad, if you give him two hundred guns, at a height of 500 meters, even if the devils and locust guards come to fly the plane, they will not be able to escape.

But now they only have general-purpose machine guns, and they use 7.92 Mauser pointed bullets. The effective range is only 300 meters. If they want to hit the Devil plane at an altitude of 500 meters, they must find a way and use their brains.

"but."

After summing up the experience and lessons, Luo Youzhi gritted his teeth:
"Is it really okay to waste bullets like this?"

Suspicious, Luo Youzhi came to the headquarters of the independent regiment.

···
"Shoot down a devil plane?"

"Okay!"

"here you go!"

Contrary to Luo Youzhi's expectations, after he reported the battle report, the political commissar and regiment leader of the regiment headquarters were overjoyed when they heard that he had only shot down one Devil plane, and praised him again and again.

"Try to fight him next time!"

The leader also encouraged him to make persistent efforts.

"Captain, is it really okay for me to fight like this?"

Luo Youzhi touched his head and couldn't help asking:

"This air defense, I fought according to your order, but in the end I counted a statistic. In just over an hour of fighting, our air defense battalion consumed 47 rounds of ammunition, and scrapped more than 70 barrels ahead of schedule."

"Is it too wasteful?"

Although the independent group has become rich recently, Luo Youzhi, who has experienced the hard times in the past, is now distressed.

"They all came strictly according to my orders?"

Li Yunlong asked.

"Correct."

Luo Youzhi said:
"According to the manual of the new general-purpose machine gun, its maximum effective altitude against air is 823 meters, and its maximum effective distance for flat fire is 3770 meters."

"I haven't even exceeded this distance."

"And any blind shots are fired with a tactical purpose, and there is no deliberate waste."

"Then it's fine."

Li Datuan said with a smile:
"Since they all meet the specifications, it is normal consumption, that is, as much as is consumed, and there is no need to deliberately save bullets. I will replenish as much as you use."

"But only when you are close to the supply station, don't do it outside."

"Our regiment has no shortage of bullets and grenades, but the transportation capacity is not very good."

Finally, Li Yunlong gave an exhortation.

"Yes!"

With the leader's words, Luo Youzhi felt relieved a lot.

"I estimate that the little devil will definitely bomb Stone Bay, but it will never drop below 300 meters. It will be bombed at an altitude of 500 meters."

Li Yunlong continued to exhort:

"Go back and think about it."

"How to use our small-caliber light machine gun to shoot down the devil's plane at an altitude of 500 meters.

"Yes!"

Luo Youzhi saluted and left.

···
"Centered on Stone Bay."

After Luo Youzhi left, Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong continued the previous topic, and Li Yunlong made a preliminary summary:

"Build mountain roads leading to villages around Yangcun."

"A mountain road for horse-drawn carts that can pass quickly and carry half a ton of cargo."

"In this way, the materials from Stone Bay can be transferred to the base station in time, and transported to various positions at any time to ensure sufficient supplies for the defense forces, so as to take advantage of our unlimited bullets and grenades."

"And the width of the horse trail is not suitable for the vehicles of the devils. Air-raid shelters are built at intervals to facilitate the transportation team to avoid the bombing of the devils."

"Besides, we are not afraid of the devil's armored vehicles now."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong glanced at a gun on the table.

A huge, slender anti-tank gun.

Based on the Soviet-style PTRD anti-tank gun, the caliber is changed to 12.7mm, and the 12.7X99mm ammunition is used. Although the caliber is reduced, when using tungsten alloy armor-piercing ammunition, it can penetrate 100mm hard armor at a distance of 35 meters.

In other words, it can penetrate the armor of any tank of the devil within 100 meters.

The penetration depth of 200 meters has also reached [-] mm.

Except for the Devil's Type 200 tank, all other tanks can penetrate at a distance of [-] meters.

Although the anti-tank gun is huge and weighs more than [-] kilograms, it is relatively slender and much smaller than infantry guns. It is very suitable for concealment and is difficult to find.

With the independent regiment equipped with a large number of this good thing, each company is equipped with three, and the devil tanks will not be able to get close to bunkers and fortifications.

Li Yunlong tried it. Although the recoil of this thing is amazing, thanks to the anti-recoil device, strong fighters can also use it.

"I don't know what will happen if this thing hits devils?"

Li Yunlong licked his lips.

After getting the anti-tank guns, they haven't fought the devils yet.

"I'll give it a try this time!"

Obviously, Zhao Gang is also very interested.
