Anti-Japanese Jedi Player

Chapter 286

"Distance 5.7 kilometers, southeast direction, temperature..."

On the edge of the base area, the commander of an artillery company reported the artillery firing data.

"fire"

Following the order of the company commander, a 120mm mortar fired. Ten seconds later, a man holding a telescope announced the target returned by the distant observation station.

"500 meters away, 200 meters to the right"

This means that the shell fell 500 meters away from the actual target, and 200 meters to the right.
"Adjust the high and low machine, and adjust the steering machine to the left by ten dense positions"

The quality of the 120 mortars from the system is excellent, and the accuracy of the graduated density is so high that even for long-range shooting over five kilometers, it can reach a density of 20 meters.

"keep shooting"

The company commander began to give orders again.

Then the cannon started firing on the ground after adjusting the altitude...

Until the fifth shelling, the observer finally saw the chess player in the distance waving the semaphore he most wanted to see.

"Hit the target, hit the target exactly..."

he yelled out...
"Adjust the secret position according to the elements of the first cannon, and shoot..."

The company commander immediately ordered the entire company to shell.

boom boom boom

A dense rain of bullets was launched into the distance.

After more than 60 shells, a Japanese observation post five kilometers away was destroyed, and the bones of several devils who sneaked in to observe were bombarded without damage.

"withdraw···"

The task was completed, and the company commander ordered to flee.

This place is only seven kilometers away from the devil's frontier position, so you can't stay too long. It is already very dangerous to fire at the devil. They are just an artillery company, and they don't have much resistance to the devil's infantry charge.

However, the company commander was very satisfied when they evacuated, not because they killed the Devil's frontier observation post, but because this time, in just over three minutes, their company completed the ranging and shelling, which took three rounds Gunnery calibration completed.

Although it was a fixed target, and there was a perfect-level accurate bombardment map provided by the overseas Chinese, and the artillery rangefinder was also extremely advanced, the 3-minute time was still very good. In the regiment, their company can be said to be excellent.

By the way, because there are only three divisions, a heavy artillery regiment now has 180 artillery companies, 120 [-] mortars.As for.

Compared with the previous battle three months ago, they hadn't even hit the mark for half an hour, which is a huge difference.

The cannon weighing nearly 120 kilograms is placed on a super mule specially used to transport [-] mortars. This kind of mule has a solid back and is equipped with a camel saddle. Any damage to the mule's back.

Lift the cannon to the back of the mule and horse, fix it, lead the mule that transports the shells, and after one minute and 15 seconds, trot all the way, the artillery company slipped away.

This is an ordinary actual combat training. Although it is not in a fierce battlefield, when the target is the enemy, that is, the devil, everyone can clearly feel the difference from the usual training, and they can perform better.

To know··

Cannons, firing cannons, this is a high-tech job. The 60-caliber mortar is not bad. With a range of more than one kilometer, the point of impact can be observed visually. With immediate visual feedback, a skilled gunner can hit with the first three shots. .

But the range of the 82 mortar is close to five kilometers, and the maximum range of the 120 mortar is seven kilometers. This is not something that can be done by one person or an artillery team.

At a distance of five kilometers, even in the plains, it is impossible to rely on visual measurement of the impact point of the bombardment. As for the telescope to measure the impact point, it is nonsense. One of the main reasons why snipers in later generations are equipped with observers is that the field of view of the scope is narrow. It is difficult to accurately observe the impact point and deviation.

The shelling of two to four kilometers, that is, the firepower advantage area of ​​the 82 mortars, can also rely on binoculars to aim and correct the shells, but for more than four kilometers, this requires large-scale observation and targeting equipment, especially when shelling in mountainous areas. At this time, the frontline observation post is even more indispensable.

In fact, the plains are not bad. The large-scale optical observation equipment provided with the 120 mortar system is extremely accurate. The distance measurement of five kilometers is very simple. The measurement data is reported at close range. A well-trained artillery group can easily Complete calibration and precision shelling.

But nowadays, most battlefields are commanding heights in mountainous highlands, and there is no air force reconnaissance across a hillside. They can only rely on the forward artillery observation post set up on the commanding heights to measure the impact point, and then communicate with semaphore to the rear artillery positions, coupled with complex map positioning and Shooting meta-calculus.

This process seems simple, but the actual operation requires high knowledge and skills of soldiers, especially the lack of intellectuals in the army who can map and measure distances. This is also the previous defensive battle. Tens of millions of shells were fired. The main reason why the devils still broke the position.

Inaccurate shells can actually be heard at most. Of course, if there are too many noises, it will still be very bluffing.

······
"Bag, Bag, Bag..."

The samurai sword waving caused everyone in the brigade headquarters to dodge quickly. Who wouldn't want to run into the brigade leader's bad luck at this moment.

"Where's the artillery? Where's our artillery? Why don't you fight back?"

The Japanese captain roared angrily, and his samurai sword finally fell on a wooden beam.

Everyone is used to the captain's daily rage, and it's enough to lose his temper. Anyway, it's not once or twice. Everyone's eyes also fell on the wooden beam, which was removed from the house in the occupied area. It is an excellent wood, the kind of high-grade wood that can be used to make gun gauntlets.

It would be great if they could all be shipped back to China...

Everyone thought together.It's a pity that although this kind of wood is everywhere, I don't know where the people of the Republic of China got so much wood, but now the transportation capacity is mainly used to transport food and supplies. This kind of good stuff is not a necessity, so it can only be discarded anywhere.

"Major, our guns don't have enough range"

Only one person had to respond to the captain's wrath.

"Our brigade is equipped with 92 infantry artillery, which has a range of only a little over three kilometers. The enemy is at least eight kilometers away from us, and it is also more than five kilometers away from the forward observation post. We can't fight it."

The squadron leader of the artillery squadron could only helplessly explain.

He explained it in detail and treated his captain as a rookie.

After hearing what the artillery squadron leader said, the captain also pulled out the samurai sword from the wooden beam, and remained motionless with a cold face.

He naturally knew the reason. The Eighth Route Army on the opposite side came to bombard it several times a day from time to time. For this reason, he specially prepared a hidden observation post. Unexpectedly, the observation post was discovered today, and dozens of artillery pieces were directly bombarded on the opposite side. This made him very sad. Furious but helpless.

The enemy ran away after finishing the fight, and they ran the fastest. They couldn't catch up at all. As for the artillery counterattack, hehe, this is a mountainous area, and the heavy artillery can't come up. Just run, it's impossible to hit.

Suddenly there was a sound of shelling in the distance, and everyone listened attentively. The sound came from the Yamada brigade stationed nearby, and it was also coming from the brigade's garrison, and it was very dense. There were at least twenty cannons firing in salvo. .

Hearing this voice, the captain put his samurai sword into its sheath, and the corners of his cold face suddenly curled up.
