Rise From Eight Hundred

Chapter 146 Bombing Explosives

 The two mortar squads remaining in the warehouse now, if they were two months ago, they might only be called qualified.

But after three months of **** fighting, which was almost a long time line, each of their gunners fired no less than 500 shells. Especially in the past few days, they not only had to fire accurately but also fast, otherwise they would be fired. The Japanese bombardment of grenades was wiped out. Under the pressure of life and death crisis, all the potential of the gunners was squeezed out.

 Both hand speed and accuracy are further improved than before.

 To describe them as excellent is already an extremely modest statement, and they should be extremely excellent.

After receiving Leng Feng's order, the mortar squadron quickly piled up unused sandbags on the third floor and adjusted the gun distance in front of the specially set aside shelling window.

The main gunner is Xiong Dazhu, nicknamed Big Bear. He is a big guy from Shandong. His hunky body does not look like an artilleryman doing technical work at all.

In fact, until three months ago, he was just a small ammunition hand in the first squad. A soldier who had only been in the army for less than a year existed in the mortar squad not by skill, but by sheer strength.

 One person can hold a 15-kilogram ammunition box with the shells on each side, and he is definitely an excellent ammunition hand.

Before entering Songhu, he also knew how to fire mortars. After two test fires, a big battle was imminent. The cannon company temporarily made arrangements for the ammunition crews to learn how to fire. Otherwise, once the gunners were finished, the cannons would be destroyed. Is it still okay if no one can hit me?

Then, in the first battle on the battlefield, Big Bear, a good ammunition hand, became the gunner of the mortar squadron.

 Because, the gunner, assistant gunner and observer of his squad were accidentally discovered by the Japanese observer, and several 75-inch mountain gun shells were fired over, directly burying them in the ruins.

The 82 mortars can still be used after being dug out, but the people have long since run out of energy.

As a last resort, the main ammunition hand rushed to the rack and became a gunner.

But no one expected that Big Bear was not only physically strong, but also extremely talented in cannon shooting.

This guy, who had only fired two cannons before the war and looked a bit rough, turned out to be the star gunner of the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment in the following battle. In nearly 20 **** battles in more than two months, he had the ability to destroy the Japanese army for five years. A brilliant record of heavy machine gun fortifications and ten light machine gun fire points.

His military rank has also been promoted from the least popular private to sergeant, and his rocket-like promotion speed has caught up with Tang Dao.

Although it is in a building, in order to ensure enough launch space for mortars, the window sill, which is 5 meters wide and more than three meters high, has no obstruction. The grenade thrown by the grenade launcher of the Japanese veteran more than 300 meters away has an eye-catching effect. With hair-raising precision, it's not safe here.

 So, Daxiong squinted his eyes and observed the location where Leng Feng requested to bombard, calculated the distance of the gunfire, and started his performance as quickly as possible.

Next to the set-up mortar was an opened ammunition box, with four shells in one box. That was the base number he had prepared for himself. He was also a talented person who had been tested by the battlefield of blood and fire for three months. Gunner's confidence.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Three consecutive shots exploded around the No. 8 tank where Kikuta Yuzo was located. The flying shrapnel and rubble picked up by the air waves hit the steel plate of the tank with a "bang" sound.

 But these are not enough to make Kikuta Yusanso panic. Although the 12-ton Imperial main battle tank is afraid of the penetrating direct-aiming cannon, it is not afraid of these small-caliber cannons. Do you think the 12-mm-thick steel plate is a joke?

Even the building he was hiding in, no matter how shaky it was, if we really wanted to use this small-caliber mortar to blast it, if we didn’t hit it ten times in a row, do you think it would fall down?

But what if thirty kilograms of high explosive exploded? Can the 12mm steel plate still block it? Kikuta Yuzo doesn't know because he has never experienced it, but it's for sure that it won't be that satisfying.

This time he knew what it felt like to have thirty kilograms of high explosives detonated.

The last shell was thrown into the barrel by Big Bear, and then he covered his ears and squatted down. "Boom!" The shell popped out of the chamber. A second later, it exploded in the small building 200 meters away. Then, there was another blast. "Boom!" Loud noise.

  The fourth shell successfully detonated the 30 kilograms of high explosives that had been slightly disguised and discarded in the debris pile downstairs.

The huge noise shocked even the defenders of the warehouse 200 meters away, let alone the Japanese soldiers in the tanks who were no more than ten meters away. "Is this? The Chinese used heavy artillery?" This was Kikuta Yuzo's last thought in this world.

Perhaps, the only good thing is that his chrysanthemums will never get sour again.

In fact, the explosive power of thirty kilograms of explosives even exceeds the power of a 155-caliber artillery shell weighing 20 kilograms.

Although the location where the explosive was detonated was actually more than ten meters away from the 89 tank, and there were even two brick walls in the middle, it could not stop the terrible shock wave from completely collapsing the already shaky building, and by the way, the 12-ton The heavy Japanese Army main battle tank "blown" into a rolling gourd.

 In fact, the 12-ton dead weight of the Type 89 tank is not enough in front of such explosive power. If it is replaced with a 50-ton dead weight, it can barely withstand it.

Rolling is just a superficial phenomenon. Don't think that you can avoid the impact of the shock wave by hiding in the tank. The terrible shock wave directly tore the 'rogue reactive armor' **** with ropes to pieces, and even the tank was tightly riveted by countless rivets. All the steel plates were lifted.

That's not to mention the several members riding inside. They were basically located in the core explosion zone and were "fainted" in the car when the shock wave energy hit.

Of course, the Japanese soldiers who fainted could never wake up.

Because their internal organs have long been shattered. If someone dissects the corpses with no scars on the outside, they will find that the Japanese soldiers lying inside the tank are all soft and their bones have been shattered. .

The detonated high explosives not only made poor Kikuta Tenten the victim, but even the Japanese soldiers who were still crawling dozens of meters away were vomited blood by the shock wave coming from the ground. That is basically impossible. Survival internal injuries.

In this war, there were many wounded Chinese soldiers. They were all injured alive by the large-caliber naval guns of the Japanese army in trenches or anti-gun holes. The constant internal bleeding would kill them within two days. Life.

In addition to the fatal shock wave, there were also appendages brought about by the violent explosion. Countless stones and tiles were sent high into the sky by the explosion energy, and then fell freely.

A steel helmet may be able to save the head, but no one can huddle their whole body into a steel helmet. What's more, those pieces of reinforced concrete that are as big as a washbasin are roaring and falling straight from an altitude of more than 20 meters. Even a steel helmet has to be smashed. Into a piece of iron.

The collective souls of the Japanese soldiers within a fifty-meter radius of the explosion center jumped up and ran away. Those lying on the ground were all idiots. The area that was hit was definitely larger. It was better to leave here than to wait in place and wait for the blessing of Amaterasu. The chances of survival are much greater.

What's more, Amaterasu has abandoned these little scumbags for several days.

 They had the right idea, but they forgot one thing: this is a battlefield.

Just because there were no shots fired in the warehouse before, it doesn’t mean that there will never be shots fired.

 Mainly because they wanted to bury themselves in the ground and crawl around, shooting too much and wasting too much ammunition.

 But now, that is obviously not the case.

 Then, three light machine gun fire points in the warehouse opened fire.

 With such an obvious goal, it would be a disservice to ourselves if we didn’t give them a few moves.
