People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

Chapter 42

Sun Fu, an orderly from the first battalion, was brought to the artillery company by Chen Ziyun, and he became a first artilleryman in a short time!

This news can be described as a bolt from the blue, which made everyone unbelievable.

Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui's eyes widened, they couldn't imagine it anyway.

The orderly Sun Fu, who let himself be beaten, scolded and bullied, was able to operate the mountain cannon so proficiently.

"Hehehe, Ziyun, I really didn't expect that you not only know soldiers, but you are also good at training them."

"After your brief training, the orderly can become a gunner. No one in the world can do it except you."

"Based on this alone, I can definitely rest assured that the troops directly under the regiment will be handed over to you for training and management."

Chu Yunfei looked at Chen Ziyun approvingly, and praised him directly.

Immediately afterwards, he glanced at Qian Bojun and the others.

Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui felt an invisible slap on their cheeks.

As for Liang Guoping on the side, he lowered his head and remained silent. He asked himself that he didn't have the ability.

At this time, the communication soldiers rushed over immediately, and the observation officer Zhou Wenbo had already called to pass on the shooting Zhu Yuan.

Chen Ziyun looked at the company commander, Sun Xiong, and confidently gave the command to shell.

The artillery company has six Jin orogenic cannons, four of which have detailed shooting parameter tables.

As long as the corresponding parameter table is found, the four mountain cannons can accurately hit the target.

Sun Xiong got the order to communicate, and the artillerymen got busy.

As a grenade was loaded, Chen Ziyun decisively gave the order to shoot.

The four grenades broke away from the shells and shot directly into the distance.

"No test firing..." Liang Guoping exclaimed.

Not long after, there was an explosion in the distance.

"Regiment seat, camp seat, four shells hit the target accurately!"

A few minutes later, Zhang Fugui, the deputy battalion commander of the first battalion, came quickly and reported helplessly.

Chu Yunfei nodded in satisfaction, while Chen Ziyun gave a thumbs up to the artillery company.

Immediately afterwards, under the guidance of Chen Ziyun, everyone came to a high ground.

They raised their binoculars, and at this time, a battery of two Jin orogenic cannons of the artillery quickly advanced towards the target.

After advancing 2000 meters from the target, the two mountain cannons launched a direct-pointing bombardment.

The two shells hit accurately, and the Houshan Cannon quickly moved.

There is no detailed shooting parameter table for these two Jin orogenic cannons. If they follow indirect shelling, they will definitely make mistakes.

"Regiment, old battalion commander, although the direct-point bombardment has flaws, it still works at critical times."

"So while teaching the new artillery tactics, we also carry out training for this old tactics."

"When necessary, we can attach bayonets to the mountain cannons at any time to support infantry operations at close range."

Chen Ziyun was the first to speak, he was naturally playing a trick here.

"Rare and rare!" Chu Yunfei nodded to express his satisfaction.

"Liang Tuanfu, based on what your professional artillery officer has seen, what is the result of the artillery company this time?"

Chu Yunfei turned his head, looked at Liang Guoping, and asked directly.

"It hits a hundred times, it can be called a magic weapon!" Liang Guoping replied honestly.

Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui glanced at each other with unconvinced faces.

Soon they saw the Second Artillery Company on standby, and immediately proposed to test the training results of the Second Artillery Company.

In their view, the Artillery Company was Chen Ziyun's old-fashioned unit, so it was natural that they could hit a hundred shots.

But the Second Artillery Company is a unit that has just been formed, and it is not the Jin Mountain Cannon, but the Bofors Mountain Cannon!
They felt that the Second Artillery Company was definitely not as powerful as the First Artillery Company, and that letting it carry out shelling would definitely make Chen Ziyun look bad.

Chu Yunfei glanced at Chen Ziyun, then nodded randomly in agreement.

This time Qian Bojun rode away in person to mark the target for shelling, but this time, the target was farther away.

After marking, Qian Bojun returned here triumphantly.

Chen Ziyun personally commanded Li Yang's Second Artillery Company to start operations, and they immediately set up artillery positions.

The Bofors Mountain Cannon is a cannon produced by the Bofors company, which has a longer history than the German Krupp company.

After the end of World War I, Krupp took a stake in Bofors, which can be described as a strong alliance.

The Second Artillery Company is equipped with a Bofors M1922 75MM mountain cannon, with a total weight of 780 kg and a No. 9000 charge, with a range of up to [-] meters.

Because it adopts a semi-automatic crank lock and transverse wedge sliding breech block, the breech block is automatically closed after the shell is loaded.

After firing, the breech block automatically opens and exits the barrel, so its rate of fire is very fast, with a maximum of 25 rounds per minute.

And the gun has an independent sight, only need to match the pointer of the gun body with the pointer of the gauge, the gun body can locate the shooting direction and carry out the bombardment.

In this way, when the artillery is aiming, it only needs to operate the sight, and there is no need to repeatedly adjust the heavy gun body, saving time and effort.

And on the left and right sides of the gun position, this mountain gun has a firing device, and both the first gunner and the second gunner can shoot.

Relatively speaking, this is a very good mountain cannon.

The Second Artillery Company set up positions proficiently, and a mountain artillery was placed in a row.

Chen Ziyun raised his binoculars to observe, and the Artillery Observation Station had already started operations.

Zhou Wenbo led the observers, carrying artillery mirrors, compasses, altimeters and other geniuses, to measure the target data.

The observer with the compass aimed at the target at [-] mils and set the origin.

Then he made the gesture of spreading the wings of the roc, in order to tell the direction of the origin of the second artillery company.

Chen Ziyun, who observed through the telescope, immediately issued an order.

Li Yang, the commander of the second company, quickly conveyed the order, and the guns were immediately adjusted to the general shooting direction.

Immediately afterwards, the Artillery Observatory launched a series of operations, and not long after, Zhou Wenbo began to notify Zhu Yuan of the target by phone.

Chen Ziyun and Li Yang personally commanded, and each artillery was set up to divide and conduct counter-targeting.

It is confirmed that a Bofors mountain gun numbered 18 was designated by Chen Ziyun as the reference gun.

A gunner is skillful in operation, and a test shot!
Because there was no detailed shooting parameter table for the six Bofors guns, the Artillery Observation Station immediately observed the impact point.

Then the artillery was fired for verification, and one round of shells began to shoot out.

Chen Ziyun came to the phone and contacted the artillery observation post in person.

He trusted the artillery company very much. After all, it was an old-fashioned army. Even if recruits were recruited, there would still be no problem with the artillery.

The Second Artillery Company was a completely newly formed unit, and this was their first live bombardment.

Chen Ziyun also wanted to know their training results, after all, it was related to future battles.

"The first artillery company is Chen Ziyun's old background. The human artillery is almost completely integrated, and it can hit accurately without trial firing."

"The Second Artillery Company has just been formed, and they are using the Bofors Mountain Cannon. I don't think they may be able to hit the target."

Liang Guoping carefully observed the actions of the Second Artillery Company, and then came to Qian Bojun and others, and said softly.
