If it weren't for the... large-caliber mortars in the siege artillery regiment, it was really out of reach, or even these... heavy mortars would probably join the attacking team.

This is also the most powerful artillery unit gathered by the little devils since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also the largest in the history of battles in the entire Far East.

Among them, the number of various types of artillery with a caliber of more than [-] mm alone is as many as [-], plus the field guns of [-] mm and mountain cannons, the total number of artillery fire is [-].

And these... artillery, many of them were drawn from the artillery units of the rear troops overnight.

Although facing the heavy artillery group of the independent division with obviously stronger firepower, these artillerymen of the little devil still launched artillery fire against each other.

The artillery observation balloons of the little devils surrounded Jinling City in a circle.

If it weren't for the anti-aircraft firepower in Jinling City, the little devil would have used a plane to drop the artillery observation balloon into Jinling to lift off.

The dense artillery shells immediately landed on the inner city of Jinling, and the dense artillery fire destroyed many houses in an instant.

At this moment, the heavy artillery group in Jinling City also launched a comprehensive counterattack.

Whether it is firepower intensity or firepower density, the heavy artillery group of the independent division has an absolute crushing advantage.

In particular, the powerful firepower of the Type 9 240-meter self-propelled howitzer can be said to be a nightmare for the enemy in the artillery battle.

Under the artillery fire of the little devil, the heavy artillery group that quickly launched a counterattack also quickly locked those on the little devil's artillery position... The heavy artillery, the cannonballs that went over the mountains, cut through the sky.

Suddenly, inside and outside Jinling, artillery fire and explosions were everywhere.

Artillery battle, the test is... the artillery's courage.

At a distance of more than ten kilometers, no one could see who, there were only shells that kept falling around, and no one knew whether the next shell would land on them.

The calmer the artillery, the more dominant it is, because courage and calmness allow the artillery to hit as accurately as possible.

Of course, during World War II, the most important thing was not strength, but luck.

This is not the world of modern guided artillery shells, nor is it more exquisite artillery production technology, which makes the accuracy of artillery shells: very terrible.

The error probability of shells in this era is often painful.

Under the modern war, after you fired three artillery guns in one artillery position, if you don't move, other people's precise artillery fire will directly kill you.

This is why on the modern battlefield, in a high-intensity combat environment, artillerymen are required to be able to hit and run quickly, and can stop and attack at any time during maneuvering.

In order to maximize the survivability of artillery on the battlefield.

Because only if you can survive, can you say anything to provide fire support.

And the towed howitzer on the modern battlefield is also the equipment that will appear after controlling the battlefield.

Chapter 126 The First Day of the Bloody Jinling Battle (6/10)

Strictly speaking, the weapons and equipment of various countries during World War II have developed the lethality of firearms and artillery to a very high level.

But there is a very serious problem, that is the accuracy of firepower.

This is also the biggest gap between modern weapons and equipment and weapons and equipment during World War II.

Just like during World War II, during the German Empire's big air raid on the Kingdom of Great Britain, Fatty Qiu stood on the street of the wheel shield, and then told the German Empire plane where he was standing.

In the end, Fatty Qiu had nothing at all, because the bomb dropped by the plane could only be guaranteed to land in the city. As for targeting a person, it was a dive bomber's job.

And the artillery battle during World War II, that is basically... see whose artillery has more firepower density, and whose artillery fire is more fierce.

Of course, it also takes a little luck.

In the era of no accurate artillery, the larger the caliber and the longer the range of the artillery, the worse the accuracy.

At the beginning of the artillery battle, although the firepower of the heavy artillery group of the independent division was very ferocious, there was no way to quickly kill the little devil's more than [-] artillery pieces.

One is that the little devil's artillery fire arrangement is very scattered, and the little devil also basically builds the artillery positions in the trenches.

Together with the artillery and personnel, they are all in the trenches.

In this way, even if the shells land on the side, whether it is a shock wave or shrapnel, it will fly over the head of the little devil's artillery position, and the artillery will not be damaged.

Moreover, some of the little devil's artillery are also arranged behind the hills facing Jinling, and the artillery positions arranged in such places, the howitzers with low curved trajectory are also difficult to hit accurately at once.

Under such circumstances, although the power of the little devil's artillery was far inferior to that of the heavy artillery group of the independent division, with the advantage of the environment, the two sides were almost tied.

And the little devil's artillery group, it is not so simple to destroy the heavy artillery group in Jinling City.

Although the little devil is outside the city, he has the advantage of geographical location, but the heavy artillery group of the independent division is in the city, and that also has its own advantage, that is, the cover of the building.

And almost all the Type 92 240mm self-propelled howitzers are basically placed in the building complex.

The artillery fire dropped by the little devil must first be able to destroy the nearby buildings, and then it is possible to threaten the safety of these heavy artillery.

Artillery battle is a battle of courage.

But for the little devil, the artillery group is more to contain the opponent's heavy artillery group.

Just like a pair of coins on a chessboard, in the face of fierce artillery strikes from each other, no one dared to easily divert the artillery target.

At the same time as the artillery battle began, the big and small devils also began to recklessly rushed into Jinling City.

Especially in the Qilin Gate, a large number of little devils entered and launched an all-out attack on the Purple Mountain in front of them.

Intensive gunshots and explosions suddenly resounded through Jinling City.
