Li Yunlong is not in Ping'an County, nor at the regimental headquarters.
He was in Xiaogushan, a small hill with a relative height of less than a hundred meters. From this place, one could overlook the Japanese heavy artillery regiment.
The place was very hidden and was not discovered by the Japanese invaders. Otherwise, dense shells would have fallen.
Political Commissar Zhao Gang and Chief of Staff Zhang Dabiao were not present. It is speculated that Li Yunlong ran out alone again.
"Report!"
"come over!"
Li Yunlong looked serious.
He got into a little bit of trouble. Well, a little trouble.
It was the 24 105mm heavy cannons of the Japanese heavy artillery regiment that posed a great threat to his troops.
To be precise, it threatened all Eighth Route Army units.
This kind of cannon has a range of more than fifteen kilometers, which can suppress the 75mm field artillery.
In a face-to-face battle, the 75mm field gun has no chance of winning.
The two sides had fired at each other several times before. The 75mm field artillery was completely defeated. They had no choice but to retreat.
"Do you see it?"
"I saw it."
"Is there any way I can fuck him for a while?"
"No."
Zhang Chu answered straightforwardly.
It's true. He still has a 105mm howitzer.
The Japanese invaders used a Taisho 14th-year-old 105mm heavy cannon, which weighed three tons, the shells weighed 30 kilograms, the caliber was 34 times, and the range was 15,300 meters.
Among all 105mm guns, its range is quite outstanding.
At the same time, the US-made M1 howitzer had a maximum range of only 11,000 meters, which was a full four thousand meters less.
The Soviet army does not have the 105mm level. It only has 122mm.
Germany's Krupp does have 105mm howitzers. The Chinese army has also introduced many. The model is lefh18, but the maximum range is only 12,300 meters.
In other words, given the same caliber, the Japanese invaders' 105mm heavy cannon could hit the farthest.
If there is an artillery battle between two sides, it will have a great advantage at the same level.
Unless a larger-caliber artillery is used for cross-fire, such as 122mm or something.
Of course, it would be even more powerful if it had 155 mm.
Unfortunately, there is nothing. Nothing.
"Is there any way?"
"We still have to wait two years."
"All right……"
Li Yunlong is very sorry.
It seems that Zhang Chu really does not have a more powerful artillery.
However, hope is not completely lost.
Maybe in two years' time?
"Deputy Captain Xing!"
At this time, someone climbed up.
Surprisingly, he was also an acquaintance. Zhang Chu shouted subconsciously.
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I realized something was wrong.
Xing Zhiguo is not the deputy leader yet. Li Yunlong is not the leader of the independent group. Xing Zhiguo seems to be some kind of detachment now...
"What deputy captain!"
"Captain of the Xing detachment! Captain of the Xinbei detachment!"
Sure enough, Li Yunlong corrected him.
Zhang Chu smiled awkwardly.
Xing Zhiguo didn't take it seriously. He was a generous person to begin with.
If not, I wouldn't be able to stand Li Yunlong's bad temper.
The war in front of him also deeply troubled Xing Zhiguo, because his mission was to harass the Japanese heavy artillery regiment.
Unfortunately, many raids were unsuccessful. They were all blocked by the Japanese invaders.
The Japanese invaders are also very smart. They understand that this heavy artillery regiment is their magic weapon, and of course they will not take it lightly.
The Eighth Route Army wants to attack?
Sorry. No chance!
"This is the basic situation of the Japanese invaders Noto Heavy Artillery Regiment."
"Three brigades, six squadrons, each squadron has four 105mm heavy cannons."
"There are a total of 72 six-ton tractors. There are 36 ammunition trucks. There are 33 passenger cars. There are 12 command vehicles. About 100 cargo vehicles. 10 repair vehicles."
"The total number of soldiers is about 2,600."
"In order to protect the heavy artillery regiment, the Japanese invaders specially arranged two field infantry brigades. Other Japanese invaders will also provide reinforcements at any time."
Xing Zhiguo introduced the basic situation to Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu raised his telescope.
The Japanese heavy artillery regiment did not fire for the time being.
However, the surrounding security was very tight. There was no chance of a sneak attack or breakthrough.
The only way to deal with this heavy artillery regiment is to fight hard.
The issue is……
I can’t move!
"I have something to say..."
"explain!"
"Let's withdraw!"
Zhang Chu said helplessly.
The current situation shows that the Japanese invaders are determined to win.
It is no longer possible to continue to defend Ping'an County. It is better to retreat early and seize the initiative.
The Japanese heavy artillery regiment was indeed very powerful. However, it was based on having a clear attack target. If it did not have a clear target, it would be a headless fly.
How to launch an artillery attack when there is no target?
Once the Eighth Route Army withdrew into the mountainous areas, the heavy artillery regiment of the Japanese invaders would lose its role.
"Where to retreat?"
"Yuxian County."
"Why?"
"Let's go to Dayu County!"
Zhang Chucai didn't believe that Li Yunlong didn't have a backup plan.
With a character like Li Yunlong's, how could he possibly suffer a loss?
The Japanese invaders have gathered so many troops that I can't attack you. But if you change the place, I can still beat you!
For example, Yu County!
There was only one brigade of Japanese invaders in Yu County.
The Japanese brigade commander Katayama Shotarō was in Yu County. He was beaten until he took off his pants.
The new regiment now has strong troops and horses, and there is no problem in attacking a county.
Especially in counties in mountainous areas.
The Japanese heavy artillery regiment was completely unable to keep up.
However, the new regiment's 75mm field artillery can be successfully deployed by being pulled by livestock.
"good!"
"Let's go to Yu County!"
Li Yunlong indeed had a backup plan.
It's just that he was a little ashamed of Zhang Chu and embarrassed to say it.
After all, I have to give up Ping'an County. I feel a bit reluctant to do so. After living there for half a month, I already have feelings for it.
Xing Zhiguo was left to continue monitoring the Japanese invaders.
The new group moved quickly towards Yu County.
Other troops also have their own tasks. They are responsible for containing other Japanese aggressor troops.
"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"
"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"
Zhang Chu and the cavalry company set off first.
A few hours later, we arrived at the outskirts of Yu County and found that there were already many people here.
"Zhang Chu!"
"Zhang Chu!"
Che Dapao and Wan Hushan are both there.
The Xiaolong and Storm Commandos they led have been operating near Yu County for a long time.
At the same time, a large number of local armed forces have gathered here. There are more than 3,000 people. Except for the lack of weapons in their hands, the number of people is really quite large.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Intermittent gunshots were heard.
It was a Japanese mortar that started firing. It was judged to be a 90mm mortar.
From time to time, there are also 75mm mountain guns involved in firing.
However, the Eighth Route Army on the periphery did not yet have heavy weapons.
They are all local armed forces, only rifles.
The two commandos only had mortars in their hands.
Facing the Japanese invaders' provocative bombardment, they were completely unable to fight back.
what to do?
It's time to show off your real skills.
It’s time for the 105mm howitzer, which has not appeared on the scene, to appear.
Choose the US-made 105mm howitzer.
In the artillery battle, the American 105 howitzer was no match for the Japanese invaders' 105 heavy cannon. However, the Japanese invaders in Yu County did not have 105 mm cannons.
so……
This is a dimensionality reduction blow!
Sure.
Confirm again.
"The transportation team is being arranged..."
"You may have to wait 5-10 hours..."
An information prompt arrives.
Zhang Chu was not in a hurry.
There are no 105mm howitzers, but there are 120mm heavy mortars!
This stuff is cheap and plentiful.
Apart from inconvenient transportation, there are no other disadvantages.
Unfortunately, it takes several hours for delivery to arrive.
Before that, what should be done?
"Pah hook!"
"Pah hook!"
Japanese rifles opened fire.
Zhang Chu quietly observed it.
The Japanese invaders were still very arrogant and often sent small troops to fight back.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
He raised his hand and shot two guns to kill the Japanese invaders.
But the Japanese invaders behind were still provoking.
The local armed forces only had scattered rifles. They were no match for the Japanese invaders.
what to do?
Let's use some other weapons to save the situation first.
For example, Deshka anti-aircraft machine gun?
"call!"
"Bang!"
A heavy package fell.
Inside are parts of the Dshk Dshka heavy machine gun. There are ten guns in total.
Assemble it and give it to two commandos for use. They have also operated this kind of machine gun before, but they are not equipped with it.
After all, they are commandos, so they cannot be equipped with such heavy weapons. They are too difficult to carry.
But now that I have it temporarily equipped, I can still play around with it.
What is Zhang Chu's biggest advantage? It is that he can equip the troops around him with the most suitable weapons in a timely manner!
"Ta-ta-ta..."
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Soon, heavy machine guns began to fire.
The Japanese invaders' bunker fortifications were immediately riddled with holes.
The fortifications in Yu County are basically earth structures, with few reinforced concrete structures.
The little devil's economic capacity is not that strong. There is not that much cement and steel bars.
Continue shooting.
A bunker was destroyed and all the Japanese invaders inside were smashed.
