Chapter 309 Toys
"The weight should be about 350 tons. The crawler base has poor mobility. The shell weighs about [-] kilograms, and the range can be [-] kilometers. Each base has [-] shells..."

Looking at a huge cannon in front of him, Luo Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at it.

The nameplate was in English, which he knew, so he quickly learned the data of this gun.

Forty tons, if there is no storage space to cheat and transport, he basically can't do anything with this gun by himself, it is too heavy, even if he can drive a car to tow it, it is too troublesome for him alone.

Fortunately, the cannonball weighs about [-] catties, and as a level [-] player, he can carry it by himself, so this cannon can still be fun for him to play with.Even playing very slippery.

Place the position, adjust the shooting angle, move the shells and propellant packs, stuff them into the barrel, close the bolt, and then pull the gun rope.

boom····

A 300-kilogram charge exploded in the drug chamber, propelling more than 700-kilogram shells to fly far away at a speed of more than [-] meters per second. At the same time, the thick muzzle released a mushroom-shaped flame.

A huge explosion sounded next to Luo Yun's ears. The huge tremors that could rupture the eardrums of ordinary people naturally had no effect on him. He even thought the real sound was good, and it was quite interesting to hear.

Boom »
In the distance, at a distance of tens of kilometers, a violent explosion sounded, and the rising smoke of the explosion was tens of meters high.

The cannon is really exciting...
Looking at the explosion rising in the distance, and feeling the scorching breath still lingering in the air, Luo Yun licked his lips. How rich like to play cannon.

Turning the turret, carrying the shells, inserting the propellant, and pulling the firing rope, as a human crane, Luo Yun alone can be equivalent to a hundred artillerymen, and he can play a huge 305 cannon very smoothly by himself.

And Luo Yun's cannon playing here made several nearby troops very nervous.

······
"what happened?"

In the middle of the night, when he heard the sound of artillery, and it was heavy artillery, General Fox woke up suddenly.

He has been sleeping very lightly recently, and he maintains a very high level of alertness every day, and he will wake up immediately if there is any trouble.

There is no way, the situation is too weird recently, yesterday the small reconnaissance unit picked up hundreds of machine guns, as well as a large amount of other supplies and ammunition, which made this experienced but suspicious general feel very baffled.

There was even a chill down the spine.

Although it is a good thing to pick up equipment every day, it is the enemy's equipment, but this fact is too weird. Who put the equipment on the ground?What conspiracy?what purpose?
British and American equipment, and now it is a time of war, can only be obtained by the army. Maybe the black market or smugglers can get a little bit, but such a huge amount is impossible for powerful smugglers.

Besides, even if the troops of a British and American division are all involved in smuggling, what is it to throw equipment on the ground?
It frightened the general.

He had to suspect that Britain and the United States had some conspiracy, so he stepped up his vigilance. Almost one-fifth of the soldiers were on alert at night, and a large number of secret posts and long-distance observation posts were deployed.

It's just that all the equipment went through a lot of inspections and nothing abnormal was found, which made it impossible to prove all the general's guesses.

"At a distance of 305 kilometers, someone was firing. Judging from the sound, it was a [-]-caliber heavy artillery. The rate of fire was very fast, and the direction was fired from the southeast," the investigator reported.

"southeast?"

General Fox was taken aback.

To the southeast, there is a desert. There are at most a few Tu tribes, the kind with wooden spears, and the Anglo-American coalition forces are on the northwest side, so it is impossible to run to the southeast to attack themselves. Besides, the position of the muzzle is also its not right.

"Have you noticed any other movements?"

He continued to ask.

The heavy artillery bombardment alone is more to suppress or destroy the fort, or to fire in advance to suppress the marching troops, but there are forts in the desert?Have a large army march?how is this possible.There are at most a few huts and cave dwellings built by indigenous people, or the fences are muddy, bullets can break through, and heavy artillery is needed?

Of course, there is another possibility that the macaroni army is fighting the British and Americans, but the general would rather believe that the British and American coalition forces were blocked by the natives than that the macaroni army can fight.

If Macaroni has a division, it only needs a few British and American reconnaissance vehicles to wipe it out, and seize all weapons by the way.

"No, only the sound of heavy artillery firing, and other investigation teams did not find anything abnormal," the investigation team reported.

"Then what's going on?" The general frowned, thinking in his heart.

At this time, the cannons were still sounding one after another, and four cannons were fired almost every minute. This rate of fire was already the limit of the rate of fire of the land-based 305 heavy artillery. The shelling lasted for 10 minutes before stopping.

More intensive shelling followed, but the shelling sounded much smaller in caliber. It should be an American 203mm cannon. The battle was so simple that the general could distinguish the enemy's weapons by listening to the sound.

However, it is very strange that only one cannon is firing, but the rate of fire is frighteningly high, fifteen rounds per minute, almost every four seconds, this speed has reached the limit of the cannon's rate of fire.It's impossible to have such a terrible rate of fire unless you have a huge and heavy autoloader.

But, how is it possible, the automatic loader weighs [-] tons in total.

Is it testing new equipment?
The general thought of the only possibility.

Although testing weapons on the front line is a little weird.

Or rather, seduce yourself.

Thinking of this, the general also made a decision.

"You organize a team to reconnaissance along the direction of the gunfire, pay attention to the spread, the spread must be fought, and a safe range of [-] kilometers must be guaranteed," the general said to the reconnaissance troops.

"Yes" the officer of the reconnaissance team saluted.

With a large amount of jeep equipment, the reconnaissance team's reconnaissance capabilities have been greatly enhanced. The [-]-kilometer spread reconnaissance is very simple and can be completed in half an hour.

"The [-]st Armored Regiment set out, the [-]nd Armored Regiment is on the left, pay attention to strengthening the reconnaissance on the right side, you protect and advance [-] kilometers behind the reconnaissance team, and the rest of the troops are on standby"

He continued.

The left side is the direction of the enemy, and there may be an ambush at any time, so there must be troops to defend, and the right side is the desert.

The First Armored Regiment is a new unit he formed recently, all equipped with Yankee Shermans, with good mobility, but lack of vitality, so the general deployed ten 88 guns in the army to increase armor-piercing firepower.

"Yes"

After hearing the order, several subordinates went back to the army organization.
